I've found that if part of a codebase is truly shoddy or just plain badly written, the developer who wrote it generally knows how bad it is, or at least that it's not up to snuff.

Criticizing the code itself (with useful feedback), and not the person who wrote it, gives them a chance to own up to it if they're comfortable with doing that. And if not, you're still able to improve the codebase without directly calling them out.

If they get pissy about it, that's on them.

You should probably read what an ideology actually believes before making sweeping pronouncements for them. This is how we end up with American rednecks being called nazis and american college students communists when the first are slightly right of center market liberals and the second are slightly left of center market liberals.
I expected them to be put elsewhere in the plane. For instance, my office has a floor with exposed AC units, and "noise-cancelling"[1] machines next to them that remove most of the sound of the AC. I wonder if something similar could be done for planes.

of course what you do is run the 32-bit decoders and 16-bit decoders in parallel making the same internal instruction bundle formats - then you fuse those bundles.

BTW your analysis ignores that in the compressed ISA you can have 4-byte instructions aligned on a 2 byte boundary
Not completely botched, they approached the regulator with an error and followed their advice on how to continue. The regulators advice was how the final results were presented in the published paper (i.e. with the accidental dosing as a separate group).
Ask HN: How to Overcome Startup Regret?
A friend asked me to found a startup with him. I had to decline since I wanted to give the startup I was at my best effort.
The startup is now running itself (>5m profits) without having raising capital. This is the second time this has happened - a previous startup which I was offered a cofounder is now in 9 figure valuation.

How can I overcome regret for these decisions?
Try thrift stores / Craigslist / Kijiji / garage sales (after COVID anyway) and of course secondhand building supply stores like (here in Canada) Habitat for Humanity Re-stores. Those things are everywhere. Bonus points for finding a round Honeywell. Another trick that works (I used that to get a replacement panel for a no longer made garage door) is just call up the outfits that install them and offer them a reasonable sum for a "pull".
Could be argued from this they always were a Dutch-Irish tax sandwiched scam?

I feel this act is proof there was no reality to the service sold from Ireland as necessarily Irish, and I think the Irish government and Facebook should be paying the Rest of the EU billions and billions in lost tax revenue.

The Irish government was complicit in this sham.

So far, everyone growing vertically is growing crops that are almost entirely water because they're the only things that grow fast enough to turn a profit. They then sell them to rich people who pay 5x for taste and the feeling of eating local. It's a quality-differentiated product, not a solution to food scarcity or security.

Until someone can grow cash crops, vertical isn't gonna make a dent, and it's gonna be really hard when competing with the free rain, free sun, and insane automation available for field agriculture already. Even Plenty with SoftBank's extra 'nutrients' tops out at strawberries. See https://www.eater.com/2018/7/3/17531192/vertical-farming-agr... for some raw data on unit economics.

One application of vertical that does make sense to me is as a community hub or a public health initiative around healthy eating. See https://www.thegrowcer.ca/ who makes container farms for isolated communities in northern Canada and measures success by community outcomes and entrepreneurs inspired, or https://farm.bot/ which encourages hardware hacking and food supply awareness.

I understand how people are saying "why not just do X?" but let's all try to keep in mind that this thinking goes against our ethos of invention and reinvention. As the adage goes, "if you have to ask why, you wouldn't understand".
That is not 'just life'; that's the puritanical work ethic that you're describing. Life absent of a need for labor-intensive work to produce basic goods and services is better than the system we have now. The issue is not automation; the issue is who benefits from making manual human labor obsolete, and in our capitalist system I doubt it will be the workers it displaces.

Do you think FOSS stacks are made of ice? That they would melt if you don't constantly resupply fresh ice from arctic excursions.

Surely you maintain your start-up tech on F/OSS, as most of the internet does, so just use the person who types 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' on your service to do the same on your local VM.

Or leave keep it local and literally never update it.

It wont melt.

I suspect these target a market intensely focussed on nutritional value, as well as price. Good food commands a premium. Yes, naked competition would force costs down and if nutritional value was costly that would drop, but this technology is early phase, may well still be more expensive than bulk commercial agriculture and succeed because of the variance of price and value and the huge amount of price elasticity inherent in food choices.

I think you're arguing too strongly from reductionist economic theories. I already am willing to pay significantly higher prices for brie over US cheese blocks, and I pay over the odds for tomatoes I like.

In Food economics, competition is not solely driven by price basically.
How is the strength of these gurantees quantified?

One of the key things with HomeKit is that its on the local network.

For Google or Amazon home automation, it goes from device to AWS or GCP, to the vendor cloud portal, back to the home device or bridge to those devices.

In my eyes, that "out and back on a different channel" is the problem.

Home kit devices can be controlled without an internet connection (I've just tested this) though the voice control of them still does the speech recognition in the cloud.

So, the home kit (via HomePod) does device to cloud to device to home automation.

I would contend that this approach is more secure - the control of the home automation devices only comes from the HomeKit hub rather than the internet. How much more secure that is - one can debate.
> One thing I was surprised not to see mentioned here is multiple inheritance.

There's nuance to banning that since implementating multiple interfaces is technically multiple inheritance in C++. So I think I'd agree with you but with an exception for pure-virtual classes.

Totally possible to compete on quality, especially if you are more in it for the lifestyle or the community aspect. You can sell at a farmer's market for 5x what the local grocery store charges and you get 100% of the margin!

Better yet, if you harvest at the right time your product will taste way better because it wasn't shipped across the continent!

Ish: Linux Shell for iOS
Always great to see development in this domain. IWAENC and Silentium come to mind as the forefront. I hope one day the researchers will realize that they are trying to cancel the wrong source. Instead of cancelling noise external to the human, the real breakthrough will be to cancel the human voice. This will confer privacy and other benefits in areas of increased population density. I would prefer a smartphone to have a feature like that than an incrementally snazzy camera, for example.
I suspect the article is referring to things like bruising from tight fitting earcups or maybe muscle strain from the weight of the headset, not something specifically related to the noise canceling function (except perhaps from excess noise caused by ANC circuit malfunction that might cause a temporary threshold shift)

Thanks to the author for summarising every single possible ending. :(. Completely unnecessary to further whatever point they were making.

Confused about this analysis. They admit other NPCs engage with extreme body modification that falls in line with the core Cyberpunk genre, but still argue that not being able to customise your own player-character's hair style means CDPR have failed to understand the genre.

IMO, technical limitations of the game engine don't invalidate the worldbuilding and concepts they've very clearly intentionally baked into the game.

And regarding the author's implication that CDPR suggests the 'meat-body' is sacred which is at odds with Cyberpunk genre, using the 'Cyberpsychosis' illness as an example (being caused by people replacing too much of their meat-body with electronics), the actual storyline around this in-game illness is at complete odds with the author's point (which I won't spoil).
Its too early to say, basically. Enough locked in sales that absent a huge problem in the field, all the six to ten leading vaccines are going to be used at high scale for years.

There's massive competition in fluvax. We don't all use a single source, never have. Since the days of penicillin there was a standard to measure against for efficacy and you can source it as you see fit.
That's what William Gibson was saying in the early 80s about 2020.
really interesting reading the comments where people are trying to cost optimize, and then others justifying the costs by time saved. Seems to me both ways of thinking about this is the wrong mindset. The more important thing is the operational "flow", how your toolsets come together to allow you to operate your business. Trying to micro optimize costs is not terribly useful, one sass offering on it's own may not terribly justify itself, but because they way it connects with other pieces of your operation, the overall flow is better, and therefore justified. It's the difference between an "accountants" way of seeing a business vs systematic thinking. Much important to think about how the "whole" than the parts.

> Google’s C++ style guide takes this [ no exceptions; libraries abort ] approach

Note the style guide says they’d rather use exceptions but had too much legacy code (and now must have a couple of orders of magnitude of it by now): “On their face, the benefits of using exceptions outweigh the costs, especially in new projects. However, for existing code, the introduction of exceptions has implications on all dependent code. … Because most existing C++ code at Google is not prepared to deal with exceptions [don’t use them]”

Google’s non use of exceptions is often used as justification for not using them either, by people who haven’t actually read Google’s style guide.

Also: few of us have Google sized problems.
My new Ram 2500 diesel has active noise canceling and is the quietest ICE vehicle I’ve ever been in. Probably quieter than electric vehicles at high speeds.
As far as I understand a RISC-V CPU will have fixed length instructions potentially having some of them compressed. I don't think you are going to see 32, 64 and 128 length instructions mixed in the same program.

But I might be wrong about this. Do you have any source that suggests that instructions of different length should be mixed in one RISC-V program other than use of compressed instructions?
I find the Arduino C++ "dialect" being quite orthodox. Maybe a bit too rigorous, since it doesn't use the STL (which is mostly quite fine). I personally don't like C++ code which exploit all Turing completeness of the templating language. Code using such libraries can get a horror to debug on cryptic compiler error messages.

So I know nuclear is supposed to be able to handle current power needs of humanity for quite a while, but if we fill earth with super intensive vertical farms powered by artificial light...

Also, by not growing these products on other farmland, other crops, which aren’t suitable for vertical solutions, can be grown on that land. There is a shortage of farmable land, so this is another piece in the puzzle.

Manhattan isn't homogeneous and the tiny number of urbanites who care enough to flash the label of their vaccine source don't matter at scale. The 1m doses of pfizer given out so far haven't gone to socialites and rich, they've gone to states for sub distribution in a hospital and semi-public regulated health system. They might be private providers, they're subject to policy.

When AZ arrives in bulk it will be used in Manhattan's hospitals unless some politics about IPR intrude, which is not impossible but it has nothing to to with real efficacy or scientific reasoning. It's politics and lobbying.

> But for other programs, where aborting on allocation failure is not acceptable

Sure but that seems like the edge case not the general case? Nearly any desktop or mobile app or game won't have any such constraints, for example. And you've also got overcommit to deal with on those platforms, so it's not like your allocation failure will actually happen at malloc time either.

So outside of embedded, which tends to have a variety of constraints, what even pretends to handle allocation failures across the entire program?
