It wasn't too long ago that the reverse happened.

People are excited about Julia, because frankly it's amazing and a breath of fresh air coming from python. Also, it's really now starting to pick up steam.

Curious though, how are limited by using Julia? Any python or r package is a pycall/rcall away.

Otherwise it's faster, more ergonomic and makes coding fun again
If you pass a function name then the corresponding type template parameter deduces to a function pointer type. Then this function pointer is passed all the way down where the comparison happens, and by that point it's unlikely to be inlined.

edit: In this talk this exact scenario is analysed in depth:

He was a mad lad. A few years back he purchased a castle once owned by the Marquis de Sade in the town of Lacoste. Cardin liked it so much he started buying up storefronts and houses. He turned some of the houses into businesses. He launched an art festival. He was stopped from adding a golf course. https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-15789814
Even if it's totally legal in your country, there is at least some precedent of the US arresting visitors for breaking the DMCA. It seems unlikely to happen again, but I could definitely see it being used if some intelligence agency thought you could help them.
There is more to the story, https://twitter.com/forestillusion/status/134123063191354163...

The idea that someone modifying hardware and software they legally purchased for the sake of their curiosity - something once called tinkering, would lead to private investigators dig up details, follow the person around, and try and interview their family members etc for pressure points is disturbing.

We typically do this for natsec, a private company doing it for a video game that's of little to no consequence in the grand scheme is fundamentally disturbing.
I hear about the elegance of BSD design often but have only worked deeply with Linux.

Does anyone have some good LWN-type articles that goes deep into the differences between BSD vs Linux internels (also common user land traits in downstream distros)?
Here's how I understand this project at this time.

1. There exists a set of files, or nodes, contained in GIT repositories, that sum up to a personal wiki, of sorts. These files, in the case of http://anagora.org, are copied from https://github.com/flancian/agora

2. In those files are links in a specified format to other such wikis.

3. A server (Agora Server) renders a the files in a manner far more useful for interaction. http://anagora.org is running said server. The actual data being served is (for performance reasons, I assume) a copy of the reference wiki it can them push changes back up to.

4. The server also has a daemon that is polling other such sites (presumably the source, not the other servers) looking for more content to add to its repository.

Question: Do those other sources get added back to the primary repository?

5. If we want to add our own, we clone a starter kit, and host our own server. It could be local, or on the internet. The data needs to be public, the server itself doesn't. If this is true, this makes hosting things much easier, as there is no need to maintain a server on the internet, just have a valid GITHUB or other such account in good standing, and valid email for the signup process.

Do I have that right?
For Xbox you must use the Xbox Store. Why are you changing the goalpost though? They only mentioned Windows.

Which allows you to just plainly sell games from your own website or use one of the many stores.

Oh side note, you can change your Xbox into a "devkit" and install basically any homebrew app. So technically, you can bypass its walled garden.
How generous of them - merely shot him in the knee when they could have decapitated him.

Do Some apps not run on m1? I’ve never heard this.
All of my side projects failed, I developed 3 apps, out of those one was not meant to earn anything, but it's success was to get users. My best app got around 100 users for couple of days, none of them used it more than 5 days straight.

First App was a birthday calendar (Back in 2012-13), where I pulled Contact book, Google Plus and Facebook and at one time also had a section of born today. But it had bugs, it took too much time to solve. When I fixed things, Google Plus was shutting down, and FB APIs also got more restricted. I dropped working on that project.

Second App was a utility around a service called PushBullet: Still active and one of the must have utility back in the day, I developed an open-source utility around that app. I couldn't market it properly, (Didn't know real possibility of Product hunt or Hacker news back then). Then PushBullet went behind paywall and I stopped using it entirely. Also lost interest working on that project.

Third App was another utility managing (and intelligently deleting) files in Android Phones: Current Files App (Started as Files GO) didn't exist then. I worked on this longer than any other project. Even tried to do marketting, at it's peak (when I posted about the app on reddit) it had ~100 users a day, then daily job got on the way and I couldn't work on the app. Then Google Happened, their restrictive play store policy meant I have to chose between other aspect of life and this project. I dropped working on this....

Not counting many ideas that didn't go beyond failed or unconvincing POCs. I have stopped developing apps entirely since couple of years. Got some backend certificates, and now in a free time I indulge in Chess, Reading and writing blog post (80% in native language on non tech stuff and 20% on tech stuff).

Edit: Started working on a POC of a service I had in my mind since long. Let's see what happens.
Why is the first point a distortion of the facts?

You don't give a reason for why the whole of Europe is less suitable than it's immediate neighbours (geographic location is only a small part of the puzzle).

I didn't say the third one at all.
I get a 404 with that link.
The argument against is just about effort. Maintaining documentation takes a stupendous amount of effort. Largely due to the language it's written in: dynamically linked and typed, tons of overloading, no formal specification, and 7 billion different interpreters.

Writing documentation is relatively easy. Writing clear documentation is hard. Writing clear documentation and ensuring it stays up to date is, if not an order of magnitude, at left several times harder than doing the same thing in code. To the point where it's less effort to re-answer the same questions over and over in an issue tracker (and others can help keep track of your responses) than to maintain up to date docs.

My preferred approach, on smaller projects with limited numbers of people, is to push documentation as close to the code as possible. Prefer comments, tests, and types over standalone docs, in that order. Prefer not to duplicate the code (explain why, not what, is being done; consider using intermediate variables with descriptive names rather than a comment on "what"), unless it is a public interface and you want to restrict the intended behavior to some subset of the actual behavior. Your standalone docs are now about the high level stuff, filling in the gaps between file-level comments and directing the reader to the right files/code to look at. Generated documentation from the types and comments helps make this approach more readable.

Here's an example: a project I'm working on now had several shell scripts to automate common tasks (e.g. setup). Each script starts with:

#!/bin/sh

usage()
{
cat >&2 <<'USAGE'
Description here
USAGE
}

set -eu
trap 'test $? -eq 0 || usage' EXIT

In other words, an explanation of how the script is intended to be used is embedded at the top of the file, and printed any time there is an error (e.g. invalid arguments). And the readme clearly states that if you want to understand the scripts, you should go read them. This is so much easier to maintain than a comment in a standalone doc, that you KNOW I'm going to forget to update when making tweaks to the script. And although I'm not doing it now, it is machine parse-able if I wanted to generate docs from it.
The dock uses a non-standard implementation of USB-PD, the Switch itself can charge just fine with just about any charger, though. As I understood it, the dock randomly switches between different voltages depending on load, while portable mode uses plain old USB-PD with a consistent charge. While you can use the dock with Apple's 61W charger, it's not really recommended, since it can still get bricked with a software update. The 87W/96W charger isn't safe for the dock at all.
Because Google has killed every social play they've ever tried tbh. I can't get invested.

This isn't the same as the killedbygoogle complaint. I know they kill a lot because they try a lot but social is Google's Moby Dick. They'll jump on it and fuck it up if it takes off.

Fair disclosure I know it's distributed and as such I've got this link up my sleeve

I'm not sure I should wade into this, because I think swedish authorities need a lot of scrutiny and they have mismanaged the response, and refuse to accept accountability for this. I would direct this scrutiny towards the health authority and the political administration.

Anyway:

> I guess it all depends on your definition of "collapse". I would describe a situation where hospitals are overloaded to the point where they have to choose who gets to live and who has to die a collapse.

Triaging patients and prioritizing them is every day in a hospital, corona or not.
If you talk with a Swedish doctor (I do, because that's the health service I use), they often think in terms of which medicines are cost-effective and for which group of patients they should be used (basically - what is the human basis for using this expensive medication on this particular patient). To make it concrete, maybe they will even tell you that you are a "priority" because you have a long working life ahead of you.

Medicine and care can be infinitely expensive and public health care is a finite resource. They always calibrate towards giving patients adequate care, not infinite care.
USB-C is now a requirement for me to upgrade my iPhone. I'm holding onto my XS until they switch to that.
Mathematical programming in Julia is just more natural and integrated with the language and type system.

From dot broadcasting, to multiple dispatch, to parametric types (if you want ), multidimensional array comprehensions. No worrying about 4 different container types (list, np array, pytorch tensor, symbolic etc etc)

Everything works with one array abstraction, including gpu and multi threaded

> I don't understand the hate systemd gets honestly, except around some very corner concerns. I remember the old init systems and don't want to go back.

systemd-as-init is/was not the problem. systemd-as-kitchen-sink is where people started getting annoyed.

It needs journald (which can't ship logs off-host like rsyslog, so you needed to run rsyslog anyway), it pulled in udevd, it's doing DNS, it's doing time syncing, it's doing DHCP/IP and VXLAN(!), it has a boot manager (formerly gummiboot), it's tracking user logins, it's ….
I think it's also enough to live comfortably in many other cities in almost any country of your choice - Berlin, for example, is well within reach.

You can of course insist on living in an expensive place, but maybe it's worth trading in some choice in location for more freedom in how you spend your time?
Even just in my lengthy career in IT I’ve learned that it is better to plan for the worst but hope for the best rather than assume the best and then get caught out. And that’s in an industry where people don’t die from my mistakes.
> encourage people to just use makeshift masks

They correctly estimated that compliance with encouragements would be very low (see e.g. current encouragements not to travel to see family at holidays).

If you tell people something that can keep them safe is available on Amazon for $25, all the encouragement in the world isn't going to keep that product from selling out.
More vital context is missing, https://twitter.com/forestillusion/status/134123063191354163...

Nintendo's measures included surveillance of the target. It included going through his work history and may have extended to surveilling family members etc. This also isn't the first time Nintendo has been accused of something like this.

Before the approach was made they attempted to find any other material they could use as leverage. This is deeply unethical and wrong.

It would be one thing to do this in the natsec context, where such an approach is understandable, but it is another for a private company to surveil and intimidate someone who has legally purchased hardware. Video games are amazing entertainment and (sometimes) art, but their importance in the big picture is out of sync with the disproportionate nature of these measures.

It might be of interest to HN moderators to replace the twitter link with this,

Sorry. With nationality I meant where the modder is located. The modder talks about an "european 3ds"[1]. I assumed the person was located in Europe (there is a related document in that thread called "belgian waffle").

The DMCA will still have effect for example, if the modder is in Germany and hosts their cracks on Github. A DMCA takedown can be sent to Github to take down the crack. The modder should be untouchable by American authorities (directly).

If the crack is hosted in a (for example) Swedish server, then the DMCA is no valid (only at the server owner discretion).

DMCA doesn't forbid you to crack the console, but to release the tools to circumvent a security measure. You can brag all what you want on internet about a crack you've made, but the moment you publish even a clue on how to crack something, a DMCA can be sent to either put down the info from a website or to make you to desist (only if either you and/or the server are located, or have business, in the United States).

If the outcome is net-positive, does it matter because of which reasons it was achieved?
Why is the lack of preparation Google's fault? Especially for such a long trip.
Some ideas for extras.
. Do you know webGL and SVG? You could build some 3d/interactive/gamified experience for your sites
. Do you implement CI/CD? That could be effective for cost reduction and quality
. Do you have a creative stock photo archive you use in the process? You could build up your own photo/video studio if someone is into it, and sell video production services
. You build custom websites, what about building a website editor as a product, tailored on your audience?
. Do you also offer social media advertising or marketing consulting?
. In pandemic times everyone is on Discord Twitch and Zoom. What about expanding your shop to a brand with a community? Offering tutorials, blogs, opensource contribution, coffee with the developer...

As for inspiration and ambition.
. TED talks are the greatest inspirators of our times.
. Harari books
. Read Hacker news!
. Browse Github for famous developers. They mostly have lots of interesting repositories which do not actually belong directly to their main interest.
I understand your point but when most Americans can't put together $1000 for an emergency[1] it's clear that the majority don't have their finances in order.

It's also important to remember that for most activities there are alternatives that cost little to nothing but offer the same fulfilment. I enjoy having my family around for a meal as much as going out to a restaurant with them.

I was pretty happy when the discussion popped onto the front page after 45 minutes or so. Traffic started flowing in and I was looking forward to having some substantial discussion in the comments section. Then all of a sudden it was just gone.

Please explain HN moderators?
There are many compelling reasons. Doesn't seem that way if Julia is just construed as a faster python with some Matlab.

Goes far beyond that
You have to trust that all the information actually IS in the open though.

Wikileaks can't guarantee that.
I would assume it's because they depend on the JVM.
Does that mean that you don't trust subdomains by default? That seems a bit extreme/unnecessary.
As mentioned in the release notes IntelliJ ran under Rosetta 2 previously (Apples x86 to ARM emulation layer) but this new release adds native ARM (Apple Silicon) support.
It held that name back when it was a major highway. It's not a particularly dangerous road by the standards of the region.

The other commenters is right that the name comes from the prisoners who died building it. Allegedly they were buried in the road. I say "allegedly" because everyone who's ever built a road knows that the road base is key to longevity and that adding things that will decompose to it is the opposite of what you want to do.
Significado de soñar con un husky siberiano la fuerza que necesitas
Más de una noche habrás soñado con perros y en líneas generales hablan de lealtad, cariño y protección. Pero, en alguna ocasión, puede ocurrir que la raza del perro en cuestión cobre protagonismo y entonces hay que ampliar su significado. Es el caso de soñar con un husky siberiano, un sueño que te dará muchas fuerzas y que interpretamos en nuestro diccionario de sueños.
Yeah, it's expensive for everyone but the point was that the FSD product is de facto impossible with lidars. Therefore, they have to pretend that it can be done with cameras.
Interesting that 0% growth at the 80th percentile and minimal growth at 90% is exactly the stagnation I was expecting.

Though, sub 50% growth from 1980-2016 for the 60th to 95th percentile is more interesting. With the top 1% capturing 26% of all growth and the top 0.01% having 200+% growth. It’s clear arbitrary starting and end points can shift these graphs around dramatically. Ending now is probably going to make a graph like this look really bad.
Do you expect the mayor and head of police of one city to take on the entire hierarchy themselves?

That’s rather like expecting collective action by the public; ha!

40%-ish of jobs are at home. Keep your laptop closed today.

It’s not a moral failure on the part of Louisville leadership. Their roles are well defined by law and precedent.

Legislative capture is the problem, fueled entirely by public indifference.
But aren't 50% vaccines usually deemed effective enough?
Boring is a feature. For an OS it is THE feature. An OS is a necessary evil. It doesn't actually complete any user tasks, much like a car's engine doesn't do the actual driving. An OS should take the low-level tasks assigned to it, complete them without issue, not do anything unexpected, and generally stay out of the user's way. A car engine's job is to start and stop when asked, not to organize the driver's inbox. BSD has remained true to this while Linux has moved away in recent years.

On the flip side it windows. That OS doesn't hide in the background, rather it screams for attention 24/7, inserting itself in every little task even when specifically told to back off.
Sumitomo Forestry released a press release in Japanese [1], and Google Translate works pretty well on it.

Additionally, there's an English version of the Japanese news coverage [3].

The main points I've seen when looking through these resources are:

- Wood is a renewable resource, unlike all these metals we keep burning in the atmosphere

- Electromagnetic waves are not blocked by wood. Because of this, if the proof of concept works out, astronauts will be able to keep all their communication equipment, like antennas, on the inside of the ship.

- When wood burns it decomposes into gases you would already expect to find in the atmosphere.

- The goal is to find something to increase the price of wood. Basically, this is a fishing expedition.

- Even if this doesn't work out, the research might lead to some new applications for wood.

- The project name is LignoStella and the satellite will be called LignoSat.

Tech giants have the same rights individuals do to spend boring but annoying misinformation ("rumors").
I regularly go through my Steam wishlist and remove any game which doesn't support Linux. I am probably the only one, but it is something I do.
I believe they’re just referring to the fact it’s native and it’s no longer being utilizing Rosetta2. Since it’s bundled with its own JRE/JDK, and other components, perhaps they just have it all compiled for M1. I was supposed to have my new MacBook Pro a couple weeks ago, but my company ordered an Intel when I specifically told them NOT to. I need to test these things out before I get them to my developers as well. Plus yes, I want a new toy. I’m waiting for a mini (for myself) to show up at my house, but I waited a long time, and that won’t be here until the end of the month. Grrrr. I really want to test Logic Pro with it!
CS Unplugged: Computer Science without a computer
The power of liberal democracies is not that bad things never happen in them. The power is that despite all of that, people can still vote and make change. That's why we have amendments and legislature - we see wrong, we try to change it.

> If things like the collateral murder videos, or the treatment of Manning and Snowden are the work of said "liberal democracies", then I'm fully in the camp that wants to decline them, and replace them with better, more transparent, more accountable structures.

But that's not what will happen. Instead, populists will rise to power under the ruse of libertarianism, or going back to "the old ways." Eventually the nation will continue to divide itself until it collapses under internal infighting. Almost as if by design...

This infographic is weird. I mean not everyone on this planet is doing well economically, they obviously follow this advice because they are forced to. By definition it's the wealthy who have lots of spare resources and therefore can afford to "waste" them. So if we force the wealthy to think and act like the poor then who on earth would want to become wealthy then?

You can argue that life is unfair but it can't be unfair for everyone. If it was then poor people might start thinking that their own sacrifices are meaningless. After all, why slave away for some "rich asshole" who doesn't even enjoy being a rich asshole? Just give the excess wealth back if you don't want it.

Spending it on yourself can be selfish and you will quickly run into diminishing returns but you can also spend it together with other people or use it to help others. There is absolutely nothing wrong with spending instead of investing your money if you have enough. It's not like we are being flooded with domestic investment opportunities anyway.
X86 JVM runs fine under Rosetta2. Will will be faster now. Looking forward to it!
