Yes, both entities did not really collaborate between each other's and there were in effect 2 R&D organizations, one in the US and one in Japan with almost no communication in between.
Please take a moment of self awareness and reflection and read your comment, because I think really is the foundation of Orwellian authoritarianism.

Have you considered that:

1) It's quite difficult to assert what actually does hurt people and;

2) more likely that these powers are merely going to be used for arbitrary political vindictiveness.

If someone is saying 'ban the KKK from Facebook', sure, that's fine.

But banning speech such as 'trans women are like women, but still different' - is totalitarian. 'Deadnaming' a trans person is also not very nice, but it's also not 'hate speech'. It will technically get you banned from Twitter, which is ridiculous.

Side Note: the oddest thing about the people who want to suppress speech, is that I find they tend not to be 'overt, assertive people'. This is not the alpha-style nationalist authoritarianism of the gilded class, oddly, it's the opposite - it's the authoritarianism of the ostensibly vengeful transgressed and hyper-sensitive. It has Jacobin kind of element to it: populism of a kind of underclass, with shades of angry revenge.
I think the original problem with all of this is that we see arguments as fights that we need to win. This is wrong. We should argue to understand each other better and to come up with better ideas than we separately could.
I've written a longer piece on how fallacies affect how we argue: https://ochronus.online/how-to-stop-winning-arguments/

The most common instructions have a compressed 16 bit representation. The compressed instructions are optional though and simple cores just have to support 32 bit instructions.

I wonder if it is possible to mount a noise-cancelling device directly on the source of noise, for example, on a circular saw? The frequency of sound waves from a particular tool is pretty predictable and I can imagine a device with a mic or a vibrometer and speakers that clips directly to a tool and suppresses most of noise from this particular source.

I've been using ANC headphones since I started woodworking in the garage and it works for me but not for my neighbours. Soundproofing the garage is difficult and not always possible (not when the door is open anyway), so I would pay top dollar for something like this.

Completely non Hacker News fit but I really like listening to the German Gemischtes Hack podcast.

It's essentially just two funny guys talking trash with little space for serious topics.

With a media landscape that's become increasingly geared towards always showing you the extremes, listening to Gemisches Hack is simply relaxing.
I'd be very cautious with redesigning HN. As a negative example, just look what happened to Slashdot and Reddit. Slashdot's redesign ten years ago in particular seemed really well-done at first, but took away "substance" for lack of a better term, and so did Reddit's.

That said, maybe HN could place the logout button further away from the login name/link while preserving info density eg without a fat/dick menu. Right now, these two small touch areas on top of another are mildly prone to mis-clicking on mobile.
IMO your post was fine and informative, I certainly appreciated it. As someone developing something similar, you would have thought about the problem a lot more than the casual reader and be able to provide insight others might not. I can relate to that.

However, it wasn't clear to me that you were involved with Typesense. Re-reading it now I spot one reference at the very end. If it was instead tied in with your first reference it would come across more honest and make your observations more appreciated.

Sure, but the legal problems go to them.
You can be a fascist without being a Nazi.

Fascism is an authoritarian nationalist death cult which glorifies in violence and war, believes in strict competitive social hierarchies where some people are born inherently and disposably inferior to others, and is deeply threatened by non-conformity.

Fascism is also pro-corporate and anti-localist. And it's fundamentally Romantic and emotional, and deliberately anti-rational.

Nazis were a subset of fascism. The US and Russia both show many signs of same in embryo but without the goose stepping and the silly helmets.

What are you trying to say, exactly?

The program is supposed to improve agricultural yields and they claim it did not. Is the program just about helping Western investments? So the investments result in unchanged yields?
Also "at some point". Removes all the effort of telling why and when.
For someone to see your criticism as objective, the objective standard should be established ahead of time. For design/code reviews this means having coding standards/guidelines and training everyone to stick to them – rules of the game are known ahead of time to all participants. Then it is much easier to convince someone that it is objective feedback.

A critical skill for a senior engineer in a team is to define and establish such standards for the team. Rather than reacting to each design/code review, taking the time to setup these process mechanisms is a lot more productive and healthy for everyone involved.

This requires strategic thinking (a skill that comes with practice) towards how you choose to spend your time at work to accomplish anything.
Advent of Code 2020 – Recap
Needed some suggestions for users growth
We have bulit a crypto trading bots, using our trading experience and data analysis.

Www.botsfolio.com

It's doing good. We have got about 60 users.
But we are stuck with growth as google, Facebook, Reddit ads don't allow us to run the ad.

So, currently we tried direct marketing with telegram. It's helping us get 4-5 users in week.

Can you suggest us few solution that can help us reach wider audience.
Not all, but most of the big ones anyway.

It’s basically built for Nexus cardholders.

But awfully nice to land as a domestic flight. Would rather deal with CBP officers in Toronto than those based at US airports constantly on high-alert because they deal with people from ???.
Unless it is actively preserved for the entire duration I doubt any modern concrete building will survive 2000 years. Brickwork may last that long, depending on the quality of the masonry. There is definitely some selection bias with ancient architecture, the buildings built to stand forever are the ones that have stood forever.

I wonder how granular people will look at this period of history in 2000 years. Just like how we tend to lump a period of half a millennium together as “roman times” people in 4000 ad might consider a 17th century cathedral and a 21st century court house to be from the same era.
It never really existed. It was a follow on from a drunk night. Probably in someones cupboard. Now internet attributed to Mr. Rogers even though it's really Arthur Greenwald and Barry Head's work. Which since they wrote Mr Rodger's I guess it is the entity that's Mr Rogers, but never published under that entity, so not really.

The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers -

"In 1977, while on a break, Arthur Greenwald and fellow writer Barry Head cracked open a bottle of Scotch, and to blow off steam, coined the term “Freddish” to describe the grammatical rules in writing for Fred Rogers. Head and Greenwald, also a talented cartoonist, even created an illustrated manual called “Let’s Talk About Freddish,” a loving parody of the demanding process of getting all the words just right for Rogers.12

> This means the airport needs to designate one part of the terminal (or build a new one) for U.S. departures which is sealed off past the U.S. Immigration checkpoint.

One annoying side effect of this is that you can’t bring most foods onto the gate/flight because you’re technically in the US now. But it’s somehow ok to have local fast food places inside the terminal.
If Sun would have picked a ‘real’ CPU, I doubt it would have been x86 (did they even sell any of them at the time?)

Also, picking a real CPU is only worth it for running on that CPU, and that particular one. If they had picked x86 in 1996, they wouldn’t even have supported MMX.

In a platform-independent design, using n registers in the virtual CPU is only a good idea for n = 0 (i.e. a stack machine, as in the JVM, .NET CLR and Web Assembly) and n = ∞ (as in LLVM).

If you pick any other number your platform-independent code needs to handle both the case where the number of op real registers is smaller (so you need to have a register allocator) and the case where it is larger (there, you could just ignore the additional registers, but that means giving up a lot of performance, so you have to somehow figure out which data would have been in registers if the CPU had more of them).

Why write and optimize both of these complex problems, if you can pick a number of registers at either end of the scale, and spend all your resources on one of them?

And that’s even more true for x86-64, which doesn’t have a fully orthogonal instruction set, has I don’t know how many ways to do vector instructions, none of which allow you to clearly express how long the vectors you’re iterating over are (making it hard to optimally map them to other CPUs or newer vector instructions), has 80-bit floats, etc.

There’s a reason Google stopped work on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Native_Client in favor of Web Assembly.

Not just other airports, but you’ll land at the domestic terminal of LAX etc., pick up your luggage and walk out or transfer in-terminal if you have an onward domestic flight without rescreening/rechecking.
Bravo, this is really interesting, applicable or not these kinds of projects are really important. Looking forward to seeing this evolve.
The fact that Ebola kills its host is actually a mal-adaptation. Killing the host is counterproductive, as then the virii in that host die as well.

The ideal virus is one that easily spreads and does no harm to its host, or even improves the survival of its host. Our bodies are full of these organisms, like our gut bacteria.

I remember, years ago, a video on TED of a guy presenting working technology for generating sound using collapsing waves from multiple sources, so you can have sound limited to desired volume or cancel noise, so you could have silence next to a busy highway, etc. He was boasting high interest from military. His page/name and the video went offline soon after.
It’s interesting to me that in these conversations, some people think it’s inevitable that intelligent life will want to colonize other systems (or die trying) while others think it’s impractical.

But I think both of these opinions come from human-centric reasoning. A species that could hibernate may be able to control hibernation through technology, so a ten year journey wouldn’t be as complicated for them. Other species on earth simply don’t have the curiosity to explore the way humans do.

Speculation about alien intelligence is interesting to me, but I imagine it’s a lot weirder than we think. Especially around topics adjacent to intelligence, like curiosity, motivation, and cultural values.

On the topic of sovereignty, it does raise some issues. In Canada’s preclear facilities (we have a lot) there’s basically a no-man’s land where the US is allowed to arrest you, Canada can’t do anything about it and you have few/no US constitutional protections because it’s not US soil.
Whether they want to or not is irrelevant. I'm only concerned with whether or not they do. My point is that for a civilization to have an unlimited lifespan it either has to exist in multiple star systems or progress beyond the need for a star system at all. A single planet is just too vulnerable. Nuclear war, biological war, grey goo, supervolcano, gamma ray burst, ecological collapse. To exist for billions of years on one planet requires that a species be dynamic enough to create hyper-advanced science but so peaceful it doesn't kill itself with it while being so incredibly culturally stable that doesn't change for eons. I don't buy it. Living on one planet is a death sentence in probably much less than a billion years.

I have Wine installed on my Linux system, which uses "binfmt_misc" to automatically run Windows-looking executable files through Wine. This causes an issue with Cosmopolitan, since it uses an output format that triggers binfmt_misc. I had to run this to disable binfmt_misc on my system:

sudo systemctl mask proc-sys-fs-binfmt_misc.automount

...and this to disable it for just the current boot:

sudo bash -c 'echo 0 > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/status'
Not in practice, but it can in theory. The US-Canada agreement allows for this.

TLDR: a group of people are setting up po box companies that they use to clone indie games and sometimes even to steal the name trademark. Obviously, they then sell while deceiving customers and at a much higher price, thereby milking and ruining the hard earned respect of the indie game.
There's no organised institution around Harry Potter. For most part the past 2000 years the Bible was probably the only book most people in the Western World saw or had. It was a required attribute of school curriculum. It was a required book to have at home etc.

None of that makes the Bible "stand the test of time" or make it popular in the same sense as Harry Potter is popular. Compare Bible's "popularity" to Quotations from the Works of Mao Zedong (emphasis mine) [1]:

--- start quote ---

It has been reported that 800 million copies of the red-covered booklet Quotations from the Works of Mao Zedong (Tse-tung) were sold or distributed between June 1966, when possession became virtually mandatory in China, and September 1971, when its promoter Marshal Lin Biao died in an air crash.

--- end quote ---

I doubt any significant number of Bibles are actually sold anymore (especially in what's called "developed world"), but are distributed via churches or other religious organisations. Gideon distributes 50 million bibles per year [2]. Most available statistics talk about "printed" or "distributed" when talking about number of bibles sold which is definitely not the same.

For example [3] (emphasis mine):

--- start quote ---

The Bible is by far the worlds best-selling book of all time. No other book, fact or fiction, even comes close. Most estimates place the number of Bibles printed each year at over 100 million. 20 million Bibles are sold each year in the United States alone.

--- end quote ---

The United States is quite religious, and it still only manages ~20 million books per year for a population of ~400 million people. This number will be significantly smaller in less religious countries, and higher in more religious countries. But once again it hardly makes it popular in the same sense as Harry Potter is popular.

And, of course, once you make more and more books available to people, you will inevitably have smaller numbers of those books sold, but a greater number of them in total. There are 650 million books sold in the US each year. [4] There are 300 thousand new titles each year [5]

But yeah, the Bible is "popular" because it's pushed through an organised religion and has for centuries been a required reading for everyone (for everyone who could read that is, as literacy was scarce at best). And even today it's possible that most bibles go to the same people ("The average American Christian owns 9 Bibles and wants to purchase more" [2])

Well-Known Locations: A Reserved URI Path Prefix, an Introduction and Its Uses
How do you think S3 works? It's a distributed cluster with shards, replication, and everything. Elasticsearch implements its own version of that with some optimizations that suit their usecase; like running algorithms close to the data instead of fetching the data over a network and then running some algorithm.

You'd have a hard time matching performance, throughput and cost (particularly) rebuilding that on top of s3. It would probably work well enough for smallish data sets but would get expensive pretty quickly beyond that. For the same reason, network attached storage is not a thing with Elasticsearch. Bare metal, preferably SSD is what you want. Technically it works (though nfs is not recommended) but the performance sucks.

Elastic is doing plenty with ML but fundamentally search requires digging through heaps of data, whether you use ML or not. That data needs to live somewhere and that somewhere is indeed a distributed object store, which is exactly what Elastic implemented already.

As for reindexing all the time. You index only once, until you change the schema or data. That kind of is the whole point: it's CPU intensive and you don't want to have to do that over and over again at query time. There are systems like prestodb that do that of course but they tend to be not used for real-time, interactive use cases (like search). The whole point of having an index is not having to scan heaps of data when you run your queries. Systems like presto are good at delegating the work of scanning that data to gazillions of cluster nodes making it seem more cheap than it actually is.

- A Gallup survey found that less than 50% of Americans can name the first book of the Bible.

- Only 1 in 3 Bible owners know that Jesus delivered the Sermon on the Mount. Billy Graham is a more popular answer than the correct answer.

I'm really curious as to why we have not started to build stacked fields.
