> It was one ISA, and a terrible one at that

Except, you know, the whole point of VLIW designs was that by offloading complexity to the compiler and runtime you'd be less limited by hardware design decisions and be able to improve with time. Provide real examples of how Itanium could have been done better.

> You're missing my point, which is about rewriting the world

No, I'm not. "Compatibility with standard C code" means memory allocations and branches. That's it. Most "real" OSs need an MMU, but there are a few research systems that don't.

You should also keep in mind that lots of different models have been tried. Compiled machine code? Done. JIT-recompiled machine code? Done. GC'd Lisp on hardware? Done. GC'd ada on hardware? Done. GC'd JVM on hardware? Done. Binary translation to "better" hardware? Done, lots of different times. "Rewrite the world" has been tried a fair number of times before, and it didn't win out.

You're also totally missing the point that several architectures, x86/x86_64 most notably, have succeeded because ISA and hardware implementation aren't locked together tightly. Processor designers and users are not nearly as constrained together as you believe.
The Problems of Bootstrap, and Here's the Solution
Ok thanks, that makes sense to me.
It definitely has some 'Murica in it, but to put it amongst the worst films you've seen completely ignores the cinematography and score which were both nominated.
Detecting UB is far harder than the compiler simply assuming there is no UB. That said, there are already tools to do it for some cases (but far from all). They're not often used in C/C++, perhaps because they're slow.
Yes, there are legitimate reasons here, and the presentation is, indeed, very nice. There's some momentum enabling various hybrid models for wikibase, and allowing projects such as this to enjoy the freedom of an individual platform, while still using Wikidata as the backend for some or most or all of the data seems promising.

I disagree with the idea that this data is inferior in some way to what is expected for inclusion in WD. Their sourcing seems to be impeccable, better than maybe 80 % of WD at the statement-level ("Imported from cebwiki") and certainly adequate on the item-level.

Data on individual slaves also strikes me as far more useful for the possibilities that Wikidata offers than academic papers. The latter are important in their own right, but metadata on journal articles is of little use unless you're studying impact factors, academic careers, or the rise and fall of academic disciplines.

Structured data on slavery neatly connects with geography, economics, culture, and really any aspect society today. I imagine there were changes in regions of origin over time, for example, and it'd be interesting to see if these can still be found in, say, regional culinary preferences, language, or music.
Yes, that is the country we live in, where someone like Trump can actually get that many people to vote for him. It's mind blowing to me and very shameful.
Revealing all R&D is too much, but I don't think in general that it's too little time to answer. They would of course know the answers to questions like the one you cited.

Otherwise, from the PDF:

1-6 mostly seem fine.

Q7 is secret sauce

Q8 doesn't really seem relevant to how personal data is used

Q10 is at least a little bit secret sauce.

Q11 I'm not sure what the relevance of this is

Q12 and most of Q13 is secret sauce

Q14-20 are what I think are really relevant

And so on...

It’s bizarre that in the USA they didn’t label infant Tylenol dosage. It’s labelled in other countries. We used infant Tylenol whenever our baby had a fever or otherwise was fighting off a cold. The dose size for children’s Tylenol goes way up (5ml). You'd think something was up when the syringes they give you for the infant type are max 2 ml.
Hey thanks for commenting!

1) Creating your cryptocurrency token is free.

2) Mint Bot is a custodial service so when creating and sending coins on Mint Bot there is no blockchain ledger. If you withdraw your token from Mint Bot we give you a link to the transaction on the blockchain explorer showing it on the ledger.

3) Thanks, I agree visual aids would be helpful.

4) Mint Bot lets people send tokens to other users. People use this feature to trade tokens with each other.

5) That sounds cool! If you have anymore questions you can reach me on our official Telegram group. Link is on our website!
Hard to call that a "perfect interview process", because from individual candidate point of view, some with unusual characteristics could be unfairly disadvantaged (and other unfairly advantaged), while reaching your overall "neutral" distribution at the end. Short of being an omniscient interview process, I'm not sure this can absolutely be avoided, so in practice you have to be very careful with the kind of correlation presented here. Even if that ends up not being Berkson, but a property of all programmers.

Lead pipes and lead-based solder is just one example and if you don’t like that example because it happened due to “lack of science”, I can come up with others. My point is that there are countless atrocities in America’s past, recent and not so recent.

How can we compensate everyone who deserves it and how can we prioritize one group (e.g. descendants of slaves) over another (e.g. descendants of Native American civilians who were slaughtered at one of the many massacres)?

We can’t and shouldn’t.

Is there a discord for anyone who wants to work on algotrading together?
The comments in this thread have a few, plus the subject of the thread itself: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24846026
My totally unsubstantiated gut feeling is that they might suspect that Discord harbors more "radicalizing" potential, compared to other social networks. Probably because discord servers are private, self-moderated, and demographically very skewed towards young men (since it's commonly used for gaming chats). I know that some of the more "troublesome" subreddits use discord to discuss sensitive topics without worrying about reddit admin censorship, so communities like those could be causing a bit of FUD around Discord as a whole.
I kinda like this analogy.

Coding competitions are also like F1 races in that the problem space usually is very well-defined and very narrow. You'll only run in this track, you know pretty much exactly who your opponents are, you know exactly how much budget you have. The only things that are unpredictable are the weather on the day of the race, the accidents that may happen, a team member getting sick.

Building actual products and services is like driving an 18-wheeler in that the road is much more open and you don't know what other vehicles and/or reckless drivers you'll come across, the weather variation over a very long distance, traffic, road works and detours. The driver also needs to stay awake for much, much longer lengths of time.
I’m also an immigrant, and I think that’s the wrong way to look at it. It’s not about “benefitting from the spoils of slavery.” It’s about having to pay taxes to fund any other kind of obligations that existed before you came here. The US still has outstanding bonds from the first bond issue 1790. It’s still paying pensions from the Spanish American war. If you move to Chicago, you’ll have to pay off pensions for people who retired decades before you moved there.
Irish Potato Famine, cause of mass migration to North America, happened in 1846, i. e. near the end of slavery. The Italian wave of immigration came even later IIRC.

(And "Hispanic" literally means "from Spain". Very few Spaniards crossed The Atlantic before Columbus.)

> The retirement stage is some of the most difficult hardware logic to design

[citation needed] There are many difficult parts to a super scalar speculative dynamically scheduled microprocessor, but retirement doesn't even make top 10. If I had to pick, it would hands-down be the load-store unit which is really hard to scale (and has a lot of gnarly corner cases).

> This all may seem inefficient and crazy and it is. Program representation and execution need a major re-think along the lines of the once-investigated dataflow architecture.

I actually agree with the impedance mismatch of our legacy ISAs, but "dataflow" is a bizarre pick as the original formulation was incredibly inefficient and all modern processors (A72 included) are already dataflow machines over a fixed windows of the (partially speculated) path through the program.

There have been a lot of interesting paradigms published, but it's extremely rare for industry to take a risk. VLIW is still a darling (in principle very efficient iff you hit in the caches), but there are a _lot_ of other ideas. Browse through the past few decades of ISCA and MICRO proceedings to see examples.

The cost of making new binaries is always the problem. At Transmeta we used binary translation as the answer for x86 and NVIDIA's Denver much improved upon the idea for Arm. Both use in-order execution which in hindsight didn't seem to have worked out. Alas, dynamic translation of binary code has huge overheads and issues with cold code. There's hope though; if the code you are translating is WASM then you are in a much better place, but still not quite as good as source as you are lacking all the alias knowledge.

ReasonML is merely an "alternate syntax" to OCaml, meaning it's a separate language that parses to the same AST. Traditionally it's been used along with Bucklescript, an OCaml-to-Javascript compiler developed by the same people, to do web work, but it's well-supported in the native OCaml compiler ecosystem as well.

Now that ReScript has superseded ReasonML+Bucklescript, the only niche remaining for non-legacy ReasonML is native development work by folks who just don't like the normal OCaml syntax, or want to target both runtimes with the same code.

Basically, the permutations are like this, with "ReScript (backend)" referring to the thing formerly known as BuckleScript:

OCaml/native: What normal people think of when they hear "OCaml".

ReasonML/native: Uncommon, but supported for folks who've bought into the Reason syntax.

ReScript (frontend)/native: Nobody does this since ReScript is strictly worse than ReasonML when targeting native. I don't even know if it's possible.

OCaml/ReScript (backend): Should be possible, but nobody does this.

ReasonML/ReScript (backend): Sort-of-deprecated in favor of the new syntax, but still supported, and most pre-existing projects are probably still using this.

ReScript (frontend)/ReScript (backend): Now collectively known as "ReScript" and the focus of the team going forward. New web projects are expected to use this.
Switching to Tailwind CSS
I discovered Julia. I wouldn't go so far as to say that I've learned it, but it hits all the pain points I've had with every other language. It honestly feels like a gift from the universe that shouldn't, by rights, exist; a fast, dynamic, elegant language that seems to do The Right Thing at every turn. I do believe it will gradually eat the world, in the way that Python did.

I've already replaced some little utilities I wrote in C with Julia equivalents. They were easier to write, handle errors more gracefully, and run several times faster (because free multithreading).

3) Reparations have been called for
for more recent attacks on Black American rights and economic wellbeing; discriminatory and destructive public policy that dates back decades but that also goes up to, at least, the predatory lending practices backed by the government in the run-up to the 2008 financial crisis, which saw black-owned wealth in America cut in half.

Sure, except randomly distribute the goods, and then forcefully extract payback from many who were never involved, and many who fought to prevent the theft, and now you're getting closer.

Will there later be reparations for the reparations taken now from uninvolved parties since the point of reparations is that stealing labor and wealth is wrong and must be corrected via payment in later generations? If we take from them we're perpetuating the same sort of theft? I agree if we were omniscient it would be "right," but we're far far from that.

Also, let's say there's a reparation payment, but it doesn't rectify inequality, because there are more systemic problems at play, like local tax revenue funding local schools, so poor towns have poor schools. After "reparations," you don't think voters will think "we paid reparations, stop complaining."

If the purpose is "righting a wrong" I think the tool is too blunt and will create many more wrongs.

If the purpose is to "fix inequality", I think it won't address the underlying structural problems, but will "check the box" and absolve responsibilities.

Feeling the same about this. Things were far clearer prior to this year -- I can no longer really see the point of the project and I'm just a bit sad about how it's all evolved. I've been following it since just before FB came in with ReasonML. I'd just started playing around with OCaml, found Bucklescript (which I still think is a marvel). Reason seemed like a way [albeit via that syntax] to get some traction for a very good language that imo seriously lacks in community, libraries and documentation. It felt slightly like Elixir, filling in a few holes in the underlying language and adding a layer of consistency. And it seeed a very good alternative to TS. But instead of coalescing into something, it seems to have just fragmented things further

I hope something good does coalesce, but it's currently very confusing. Maybe just me but the opportunity feels like it's slipping away. As say, been following things very closely so I fully appreciate some the issues & understand some hidden things are based on internal needs of that part of FB
