Why? Europe already produces EUV lithography machines, and while I'm not that familiar with the field, I'm pretty sure ASML and TSMC are already working on 2nm lithography.
Thinking about point 1 makes me wonder why no popular regex engines have an intersection (logical AND) operator. It seems like it could allow writing complex regexes in a much clearer way.
It's very frustrating indeed! I don't know how many times I've edited and attempted to clarify the instructions, but I'm still getting bounces. I really sympathize with the reviewers who are probably under a lot of pressure. But it doesn't change the fact that a hotfix release of our app on iOS is anxiety inducing.
My goal is to become a software company founder.
It's always been normal in the EU. There is little innovation here based on private risk taking, almost no venture capital, and huge barrieres for banks to lend money to innovators.
Indeed: Kadyrov (the current Marcher Lord) ought to know a thing or two, having been supported by both anti-Kremlin and pro-Kremlin regimes at varying times.
Ancient Romans, asbestos and radioactive material users probably also thought they did research.
A more recent example would be the book "The Utility of Force" by General Rupert Smith. He argues that conventional militaries and tactics revolve around a concept of war that was made obsolete by nuclear weapons, and goes in depth regarding recent failings of NATO and the Iraq invasion, and how the conflicts should be handled in the age of instant global communication and media coverage.
Is it my imagination, or has people's ability to detect and understand sarcasm just fallen off a cliff over the past 1-2 years?
If you like distcc, perhaps you'd also like icecream https://github.com/icecc/icecream which I think is a bit easier to use.
I suggest best noise/human cancelation headphones.

It makes tremendous difference.
... then build a platform that feeds a consumer's measurements to a secure environment controlled by the brand/designer, render the result there, and send the picture back.

Everything can stay under the control of the designer, including 2FA of the end-user, the degree of fidelity of the rendering, rate limits for requests, timed release to selected partners, etc, etc.
Learning from the mistakes of Hacker News would be better.
NXP, Infineon and STM are the three major in Europe, although STM is Swiss/Italian.
> The Industrial Revolutions and many of the institutions and professions that we take for granted today could not have been possible if Nations didn’t spend so much resources making war on each other

Yes. For example, how the improvements in metal working and metallurgy required to make effective artillery pieces made 'precision-engineered' steam engines possible. Making a gun barrel that snugly matches the calibre of its shells gave people the ability to make pistons that fit snugly in their cylinders, without leaking steam everywhere.
Are you a citizen of the EU to even care?
Chairs and shoes cause health problems? Can you tell me more?

I get that sitting an excessive amount of the day, or wearing shoes for all your waking hours, can be bad. Is that all you mean or is there something more?
As a practical solution, I wonder if you could provide the reviewers with a fake id that you hardcode into the backend for test accounts. Whcih could allow them to use the same login UI (even if the underlying codepath is different)
Technology is always pushed by states, not small companies. Small companies can figure out how to market and reduce costs, but have never successfully created new, advanced technology.
Not true.

SpaceX was almost completely privately invested and private risk. Once they had shown that they were serious, NASA awarded them contracts, because it was a great deal for NASA, compared to what they would pay otherwise.

Its sad to see these kind of attempts to trash talk the SpaceX achievements.
This sounds like a better alternative to bitcoin! I guess it requires a trusted central authority, but for most users that's a feature not a bug, and it sounds like it has a load of advantages:

- Faster transactions

- Can work "offline" (to some extent)

- No wasted energy calculating redundant sha256

- Able to rectify fraudulent transactions
They built a widely used and loved product, why not be proud?
Except for a couple of short contracts I am trying to ignore mobile app market. I just can't stand that I need anybody's permission to install / sell my products. Instant critical updates delivery that saved my bacon quite a few times is also out of question on mobile. I am aware about sideloading on Android but how many regular users are willing to follow through on that model.

Cynically put, the impending Cold War gave more of an impetus for nation building mid-century than existed by the turn-of-the-century.

Hitler in his bunker doesn't seem so crazy if he'd had cause (such as foreign intelligence reports, or incidents of separate negotiations?) to believe the Allies would have fallen out much sooner than they actually did, and of course someone in his position might've believed that Nazi Germany had been worth more as a wholesale bargain, than (as actually happened) picked up individual by individual at retail.

As to commitment to nation building, the (premature?) end of it in the former CSA came relatively rapidly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compromise_of_1877

Forced to by employer

I grew up on Windows and did win32/C++ for years during the XP era. I'm over it.

The OS kills hundreds of hours of typical productivity each year, with forced updates at working hours, or fail your computer entirely, Windows defender that thrashes source and build folders, settings reverting and being ignored (like please update off-hours and please ignore my build folders...)

i never thought I'd say it but even Linux has become easier to use in the sense it is not hostile against business users performing work during work hours?! I can leave everything just as I like it on a Friday evening and jump back into it Monday morning in mere seconds, not so with Windows.

I think Microsoft is part of an international conspiracy to keep upper-middle class mediocre white men employed doing barely any work. Making an unpredictable ever-changing UX, a resource-starving OS, and random forced updates are a big part of this.

Windows is the OS for the boomer generation, may they die together in peace.
Yes of course it's the risky investment. BTC has seen 3 drawdowns of -86% in the last couple of years, and also, what happened to XRP shows that the football can be deflated in seconds with the right SEC memo.

Currency isn't an investment. Currency has never been an investment. You're not supposed to hold currency. You're supposed to use currency to buy assets. A spot exchange rate means absolutely nothing. This is ECON-101.

Facts won't fix this: experts on how to fight America's disinformation crisis
I sympathize with your feeling, but it’s a little astonishing how easily “hacked” human brains are. I don’t think you have to be feeble minded or a child to spend hundreds of dollars a week on digital avatars.
On a side note; Not having a Swedish ID in Sweden makes a lot of things very cumbersome and some even impossible, having one makes one of the most straightforward and convenient bureaucracy systems I have experienced.
US school spending is already one of the highest in the developed world, and the complaints from the teachers that you quote typically also come from the teachers in highest spending areas too.

If there is anything US school system doesn’t lack, it’s money.
Just like the NASA bureaucrats thought they could make a dent in rocketry - how foolish of them.

Seriously though, some projects are just too expensive and risky for a privately funded venture. That's why public-private partnerships are created - it's always been like this and there doesn't appear to be an alternative.
It's a delusion of Western blamelessness to think that any supposed relationship between the actions of Islamic fundamentalists, their strategies and growth, implies that "Islamic fundamentalism owes its existence to a transient American action".

Islamic fundamentalism was around before American involvement and it'll be around after. Nobody is claiming otherwise.

Wrong.

Its not about "doing something", its about doing the right thing. And they don't.
I'm finding malformed markup has not been a concern of mine for many years. It used to be bad, real bad, but now I cannot think of the last time that I had to deal with malformed markup while scraping.
I would argue that the render engine of web (CSS) is much more sufisticated than Apple's and Android's UI component frameworks.
A well written single page fully clientside rendered web app can be as fast and good-looking as a native app. In my opinion it's easier to develop as well.
Copper cladding also dramatically reduces the external fouling on the hull that's mentioned in the article. I had a copper-based anti-fouling paint on the fiberglass hull of my (small) yacht simply for that property.
Do you do nationaly checks before allowing people to have an opinion?
That's right, the code was not open source, it was shareware.

In those days, I either wasn't aware, or there weren't widely available and understood licenses you could use.

I agree that this was a scary consequence of making my software available. I paid a lot more attention to licensing after that experience, and I now use standard open source licenses to protect myself as well as the work.
The Pfizer/BioNTech lipid nanoparticle was made by Acuitas and Polymun.
2020 kind of became the year of the linux desktop for me after I caught one of our sales guys with linux on his desktop in 2019 and suddenly realized a PM type with one of our customers were running Teams from his Ubuntu computer!

At work it seems anyone can habe Linux as long as they support it themselves and it generally feels a lot like when Mac broke through.

But whatever, 2021 it is then!

Hope to see som really good distro releases this year then and maybe one more vendor will officially supoort it? Or maybe we will see a MS Office for Linux beta release this year?

Microsoft has been flexing their muscles for years now to the point were my personal laptop has a dual-boot partition with official(!) Norwegian Nynorsk(!) language settings.
Should Cambridge Analytica love that its Facebook quizzes were widely used and loved?

It’s a bad product that people get addicted to, so I wouldn’t want to work on it, much less be proud of it. It would be like being proud of inventing banner ads, or spam, or artificial trans fats, or telemarketing robocalls, etc etc
It isn’t a bad thing, but it won’t affect many Americans. Most of the country has insurance coverage, and even a high copay is probably cheaper than paying cash for most things. However, it will hopefully lower prices for people that have no coverage for some procedures by exposing any gross differences between the negotiated rates with big insurance payers and the cash rates offered to individuals. It will benefit people that are uninsured or undercovered, if they do their homework.

I have a feeling that while this is a step in the right direction, people can still be taken advantage of. Like, hospitals may offer a reasonable cash price for a baby delivery but still tack on all sorts of extra fees. Similar to the “underbody rust protection” scheme with car dealers. It’s supposed to be illegal but somehow the hospitals will figure it out.
How much of that was really private? My guess is the NASA launch facilities, former employees, and potential for future contracts were a big part of the picture.
Thanks! I'm interested in the idea of a reversible state machine, for parsing an application specific language syntax into some machine representation, then allowing the user to modify it and unparse back to syntax again. So far I've had to implement procedural code for both directions but I figure there must be some way for some smart code to both parse and unparse using some declarative parser rules^. I've had no luck finding any existing art so far.

^I figure this won't be super simple, since e.g. whitespace is often ignored at the tokenizer step and would need reinjected by the unparser, but that sort of stuff is probably not too difficult to handle.
Yes! Check out Trilink for buying the mRNA and Acuitas for buying the LNP. The field is very close to commoditization.

LOL! as I already stated, a weak coder isn't going to implement best practices for logging. At best, he hard-coded his own email address to receive an alert, however, this also goes unnoticed, since, as you stated initially, he's dead.

Look, whatever company this was, was relying on YAHOO as its data source for making million+ dollar trades -- not Reuters, or Bloomberg, or JP Morgan, but YAHOO -- and then, for MONTHS -- not hours, or days, but MONTHS -- nobody in its finance department or trading desk or whatever happened to notice that the incoming data feeds were not matching up with quotes from counterparties, market makers, CNBC, colleagues, Wall St Journal? Does this company not have auditors? A CFO? Any IT oversight whatsoever? I'm sorry to say that this particular company's problems are rooted much, much deeper than the loss of a particular Excel guy.

Well, surely there are other ways to try to improve things besides doing nothing and bureaucratic grant schemes.
I'd like to see more government investment into domestic industries, however I believe that the semiconductor manufacturing market is already heavily saturated. R&D is welcome but beyond ensuring independence from foreign manufacturing there are not that many benefits that you would expect from this example of government stimulus. This industry primarily hires high skilled workers but unless they also directly fund the education of those high skilled workers it's not going to result in less underemployment.

I mean come on, the existing semiconductor industry in the EU has found it's niche. It's already well developed. If there really was a shortage of domestic semiconductor products then these companies would have been able to make a killing with their local fabs because corona related shipping restrictions resulted in a lack of supply from foreign nations. They wouldn't need the government stimulus and stand on their own.

It would make more sense to use this government stimulus on reducing CO2 emissions because most nations do not have economic incentives for reducing CO2 emissions. With our current economic models environmentalism amounts to charity and charity is one thing the government is very good at. The reason why I bring up CO2 reductions is because they are inherently domestic. You cannot put CO2 or electricity on a container ship and move the problem to a different country. A lot of the work also involves simple manual labor which helps with the underemployment problem for low skilled workers.
Is Instagram Spying on Me?
Right, the goal of estimating in this since isn’t to have perfect estimates, but to get people thinking about how much time it takes.

It’s also important to not “grade” people on their estimates or treat them with great precision. Just an ongoing rough ballpark helps with planning. Although oddly I found that estimates got better over time.
I thought Airbus was one.
This isn't trash talking the SpaceX achievements but stating the fact that government money played a huge role in developing a space industry which was the base for SpaceX becoming reality.
The Alpha Juno already had a high resolution digital oscillator.
The amazing thing is how much money you can lose while doing so little.

I guess funneling money from investors to landlords by way of software developers is more expensive than it looks.

It’s so strange to read a comment like this one. They have the facts but completely miss how the facts connect with each other.

Yes, Space X is a private company but they wouldn’t exist without the innovations that came out of NASA, a publicly funded organization.

It's hilarious how you can simultaneously make 10 years of Afghan and Soviet fighting a secondary act in this supposedly American performance. Just proves my point.
I contributed to a couple of projects that received money from FP7 (sort of the previous iteration of Horizon 2020). In a certain sense, the whole thing seemed like a huge waste of money. Software (and hardware) projects were completed, and nothing was ever done with them. We produced over 20k pages worth of paperwork (which was all mandatory if we wanted to get the money), which I'm guessing no one ever read.

Don't get me wrong, it was all developed with good intentions, but those have been known to pave the road to hell. From a personal point of view, I learnt a lot from the experience. But there are probably more efficient ways for software engineers to learn than by doing FP7 projects.

I was just a cog in the machine, perhaps someone further down the pipe got some benefit out of what we were doing. But given how the projects were managed, I doubt it.
From the article:
"Unfortunately, most spaced repetition interfaces treat each prompt as a sovereign unit, which makes this kind of high-level revision difficult."
This is why I've built Traverse (https://traverse.link/), a spaced repetition app with hierarchical and interlinked markdown flashcards, so you study connected knowledge rather than bare facts
The EU has the tech, but that's not enough. I won't say the whole budget will be wasted away, but I hold no hope of something useful coming out of it.

The EU has ASML, NXP, Infineon, maybe STM (not sure) and a ton of little shops, but all of them are far away from the major players. And they are moderately confortable in their niches. This is a very high risk endeavour, even with EU money.

And as far as I know, none of them manufacture for other end-user players, so even if there was a new fabless company with a cool project, it's likely that wouldn't be made in the EU bu by Samsumg or TSMC.
This is a very good point, we are all still fallible humans no matter what degree w hold
What technology do you use from 2008 that hasn't changed at all since then, and is also considered nascent?
The world starts realising all the processors that everyone depends on is mainly from Taiwan. I just wrote an article[1] about the importance of processors and talking about key players such that help the semis industry such ASML, and why it's not that simple to get into the game.
. It's not as easy as pouring money into some companies. Sourcing trusted partners + years (decades?) of R&D might be needed to achieve what TSMC did in Taiwan

You can only apply red shift calculations if you know what frequency it should be.

We have no idea what they are so even less clues about what frequency it should be.

It works for regular stars because each element emits light peaks at predictable wavelengths which we can measure and calibrate on earth.
This is the type of tool that I would love to love.

But experience tell me that any tool that interfaces with the browser will break in a year and a half. Depending on this tool will put me into a situation where I'll have to decide between preserving my workflow or updating my browser and possibly other software.

Maybe once there's more than 5 forks or a few hundred Github stars, I'll start to see where I can incorporate it into my workflow. But as it is, I've become wary of super-useful tools that are not yet in widespread use.
ASML is impressive for sure, but having the litho doesn't mean you can make good chips.

As a mediocre analogy, you don't expect to be able to write good novels because you got your hands on a printer.

I think much of the relevant general-purpose chip design knowledge we had (ARM) left the EU this morning. I don't yet see any other chip company (eg NXP etc) suddenly be the next Intel or AMD yet (let alone the next Apple).
Yeah but why would they? People avoid using asbestos in the name because it kills you. Coca Cola is still made from.....Coca beans. It's not named after cocaine you know.

Unfortunately noise canceling headphones to nothing about a child tugging on your shirt. When children are little, they truly need attention. If there’s no one else around to provide it, then there’s really no way to deep work, because you will have to help them with something at least a few times per hour.

There are some kinds of work that aren’t too disrupted by this, but programming isn’t one of those.

Two things which would help are:

1) Allow both private and public right-of-action for most laws. If the AG is busy, I should be able to sue. If I can't afford to sue, an AG should be able to take it up on my behalf.

2) Go back to circa 1800 style courts, where you don't need a lawyer to represent you. You both make your case to the judge. Not too much procedure. Perhaps extending small claims court up to $100,000 would do much of the same.
Heard the name but wasn't sure. The article says it at the beginning:

> Incoming US Treasury secretary was paid for events at Goldman Sachs, Barclays and others

Truth is, there a million ways in which large corporations can try to influence politics. In the US you have "lobbying", which is essentially legalized influence; but otherwise you can also pay very generous fees for someone to come speak at these events.

edit: for example, almost 300k for a single event:

> $292,500 from a single speech for hedge fund Citadel.

However, note that keynote speakers at very exclusive private events can be paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, especially if high caliber like her.

I wouldn't necessarily draw conclusions here; but I'm not defending anyone either.
