No. I don't see the hypocrisy.

The opinion of an independent adjudicator like the platform you're on with hopefully unbiased hate speech rules should be considered evidence in a way that the bad faith arguments of the person you're arguing with is not.

That is, I should not necessarily take your accusation of hate speech at face value, because you've proven to be willing to try and use it to win an argument. But if dang said that I was doing something that broke the rules, I would be more introspective. This is, yes, technically an argument from authority, but so is basically everything in the world of social dynamics.

So the burden of proof for you and the burden of proof for hacker news as a platform may be different, but that has nothing to do with me vs. you.

So I'll repeat what the other user said: if dang@ came along and asked you to stop engaging in hateful rhetoric, would you take a moment to introspect on that, or would you first reaction be to argue and demand proof?

Mine would be to try and figure out what he was referring to, and then probably to do less of it. And indeed, when chastised by him, that's more or less what I've done.
There's a practical question of whether this is true for realistically encountered problems, with a sufficient threshold on both the size and utility of a "significant task" and with realistic numbers of cores.

Without a requirement of utility it's easy to come up with counterexamples from math, eg "does the Collatz starting from Graham's number reach one?" Once you've exhausted cores that can be used for the actual arithmetic, you are still gated by the decision-making at each step so cores cannot work too far "ahead" of each other. There may well be much smarter things we can do than brute force, but that's not "just coding work" at that point.

Theoretically, it doesn't hold - at some point you have split apart everything that can be split, and you are left with some essential chains of data dependency that cannot be further parallelized.
I gave you a definition in my initial reply to you.
One problem is that I find exercise extremely boring. I need constant stimulation to keep attention away from pain. For some time I actually could get by with podcasts but after listening to few hundreds I started finding the same patterns and it was just boring again. In the end I had to listen to them at 4x speed to keep myself away from pain. Other "trick" was to exercise once pain killers kicked in, but they work so short periods now that I have to do work instead. Medical cannabis also helps but exercise does not feel comfortable. Still researching... wherever I sit I have weights within reach so I try to lift at least once but after a while I became blind to them and forget they exist.
Literally the paragraph after the one you quoted:

Many of us dang-strokers are making one account per comment. It's pretty retarded to 'keep an account' in here, or anywhere else on the internet. Yeah except having a stable email. But there too we choose to throw away as much as possible. I bet your mind is blown. Imagine having 'I had a curated groomed HN account' as your epitaph. Sounds pretty retarded doesn't it. So we use one account per comment. It's pretty easy.

That’s what I was referring to, yes. I heard of a situation during a merger where the Japanese delegation took turns sleeping, while the other delegation was up all day. As a consequence, the Japanese delegation got their way because they had more stamina.
So, can you stick the cynophobe in the room with the well-behaved Rottweiler and also give them some drug that reduces their anxiety just while they’re in the room?
Yes, and I think that so many internet conversations would benefit from an explicit reminder that "People are different", and "Groups of people (teams) are even more different", so we should bear in mind that any average has a wide standard deviation, likely spanning the positive and negative domains

I'm struggling to find where this author concludes that universal healthcare is free like free energy from a perpetual motion machine. Can't find it.

Could it be that you're misinterpreting the repetition of the fact that countries with universal healthcare have better health outcomes, and yet pay less than half of what we do for healthcare, with it somehow being completely free? The same fact that's repeated in the title "22 studies agree: 'Medicare for All' saves money"?

Which of those 22 studies claims that cheaper healthcare with better outcomes is the result of free labor?

Looking at the rest of links, it seems to me that you believe that anyone claiming, with evidence, that universal healthcare saves money somehow thinks that universal healthcare doesn't cost anything.
> Well, evolutionary psychology is generally debunked.

Can you say more about this? Is there a good reference for the debunking?

I’m aware that a much of what is called evo-psych is ‘just so stories’ that are unscientific, but that doesn’t mean the concept itself is generally debunked.
If you do it a lot, you get used to it. (I work with 350VDC and 120VAC a lot with sweaty hands)
> Exceptions are an invisible, out-of-band mechanism that will crash your program because you forgot yet another try...catch.

Out-of-band is the point. It lets you write your code for the correct path, without having to explicitly string a bunch of error types along (or do something annoying like mandating all errors are of type Error, which is a string).

The problem is with invisibility, which is the case with most exception-using languages. Java had it solved right, though, with checked exceptions. Of course back in the 2000s we were a bunch of lazy children and said "checked exceptions are bad because they make us declare stuff up front", which was actually a good thing, but we couldn't understand that, so they became optional in Java.

(On the other hand, exception handling is just a poor shard of proper condition system, like in Common Lisp.)
Rule #2 needs lots of nuance stacked on it.

Host-users and guest-users must be explicitly mapped by whomever starts the container, so this issue is not a security threat to outside of the container. That said, if a guest-os is running as root and then someone compromises it, they have at their disposal all the powers of root in that container.

OWASP has also mixed good container guidance with "Docker" as well as some Docker specific things, which I'd like to maintain a delineation with now and into the future because they are different. I understand most uneducated people are looking for "how do I do x in Docker" but subtly educating the user matters for broader discourse.
Okey, so how can I find the GPS coordinates of the Vasa Museum using Google Maps.

Even if the images represented reality, what the mother was doing was still harassment, particularly with the nudity angle.
Rationality in service to what end, though? You can't just build some complicated instruments to record measurements of the ideal polity, the way you can refine measurements of the electron's mass. Most political disagreements are about values more than wonkish policymaking.

But in fact many political zealots never accept reality. It's not just that they're inherently skeptical of what the other party says. It's that even when something is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, they still won't believe it.

This could describe cognitive error [1] or it could describe someone who's using deontological reasoning more than consequentialist reasoning. (And perhaps lacking the vocabulary to say "consequentialist arguments won't sway my values.")

It is probably a good strategy to refuse to be talked into positions against your fundamental values by mere evidence. I'm joking but also serious. I have a vague sense that torturing suspects doesn't work to prevent terrorist attacks, but that's not the root of my opposition to torture. Maybe clever torturers could make it work more often than not. That wouldn't sway me, because torturing suspects is against my values. Documenting how well it can "work" won't make me reconsider.

[1] Further food for thought: "cognitive error" and "revealed preference" may also be different names for the same thing. Are they experimentally distinguishable?
And yet linux usage keep dropping

Valve strategy is the wrong one

Here is how i would have done it:

- 30% steam tax if you only target 1 OS

- 25% steam tax if you target 2 OS

- 20% steam tax if you target 3 OS

That way developers would be more likely to offer NATIVE build of them game! (let's not forget you can easily target linux with Unity engine, which is, i'm pretty use, the most used engine on steam)

Proton perfectly showcase what is wrong with linux, hacks on hacks on hacks on workarounds, as a gamer I DONT WANT TO DEAL WITH THAT SH!T

And as a dev I DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH RANDOM LINUX WINE SUPPORT TICKETS

For "Linux" to attract gamers, also need a better Desktop Environment, and better software ecosystem, it's not there yet.. sadly, and linux people can come at me whenever they want, it's the reality, and it's the reason why i'm using macOS

It sounds good but you don't have a decicated workspace as everyone rotates pods and you lose the face to face advantage because no one is there on on the same days because there are not enough seats / pods. Everyone ends up coming in for townhall type meetings and there are not enough workspaces.
There's also a cloak-and-dagger aspect to scholarship about ancient manuscripts, especially scriptures, which pops up in various stories here from time to time. Lots of intrigue, theft, forgery, factions, and weirdness. Partly this has to do with the overlap with the antiquities markets which are more...colorful.

The transparency and openness we tend to expect from academic research is lacking. Sources are closely guarded, scholars don't get to properly check each other's work, and drama regularly ensues.

Edit: I was trying to dig up an old thread about some such weird controversy involving National Geographic, but my memory has disintegrated into little parchment fragments. Speaking of cloak-and-dagger, though, I did run across this:

> This column uses survey data from Japan

Survey data is completely unreliable.

Lots of companies never reply, since they wont even trust if their own data will not be used against them. Those who reply can have an agenda.
Blind guess: they actually are permanently in a state of pseudo burn-out and combat it through various means, a less individualistic mentality and gradually drop their ambition to prevent it from increasing. Also, just in general going at a really slow pace to stay sane.
It’s really akin to doctors centuries ago who would bleed out patients. Their cure is worse than the disease.
Of course, they're a corporation. The question is - why did noone else step up and try to address the issue? Other corpos just wanted to silo all data into their proprietary platforms and opensource/openweb teams just pretended that the issue never existed.

That's an option in the same way that anyone can go back to college, specialize in pre-med, go to med school, complete residency, and then become a doctor. It's possible in theory. In practice, you're looking at a decade+ of your life, with significant risk that each step fails.

So it is with companies bringing core competencies in-house. Each step takes time, and is fraught with risk. It's not a matter of simply hiring people with the right skillsets. You need to know what the right skillsets are, and how to judge them. You need to hire managers and executives to oversee them. You need to convince all of the above people that they should work for this new company that's just entering the market and may reconsider in a couple years, vs. stick with their bread and butter that's been doing it for decades. Company leadership needs to prioritize integrating the new competency, which often means challenging a lot of their assumptions about how the business works. Investors need to be on board: integrating your suppliers often does bad things to your margins and costs. Tooling and capital investments need to be made, and they can take years to plan out and execute.

With developer tools specifically, the alternative to buying the product is often "We'll have a team of engineers spend a quarter or two building something that is specific to our needs", and no changes need to be made at the management/executive/personnel/financial levels. If, say, you're building a SaaS for a non-tech business, the alternative is "We need to learn how to manage software development processes, and hire a bunch of engineers, and get executive buy-in, and re-build the communication pathways in our org so this new division knows what to build." A lot of businesses actually try this, but the results have been predictably bad, and that creates a ready market for non-tech SaaS vendors.
Does anyone know of any development cycle oriented dashboards that can pull data from different services?
Since this got so many upvotes, I'll say a bit more. I'm writing a viewer for a virtual world. Think of this as a general-purpose MMO game client. It has no built-in game assets. Those are downloaded as needed. It's a big world, so as you move through the world, more assets are constantly being downloaded and faraway objects are being removed. The existing viewers are mostly single thread, in C++, and they run out of CPU time.

I'm using Rend3, which is a 3D graphics library for Rust that uses Vulkan underneath. Rend3 takes care of memory allocation in the GPU, which Vulkan leaves to the caller, and it handles all the GPU communication. The Rend3 user has to create all the vertex buffers, normal buffers, texture maps, etc., and send them to Rend3 to be sent to the GPU. It's a light, safe abstraction over Vulkan.

This is where Rust's move semantics ownership transfer helps. The thread that's creating object to be displayed makes up the big vertex buffers, etc., and then asks Rend3 to turn them into a "mesh object", "texture object", or "material object". That involves some locking in Rend3, mostly around GPU memory allocation. Then, the loader puts them together into an "object", and tells Rend3 to add it to the display list. This puts it on a work queue. At the beginning of the next frame, the render loop reads the work queue, adds and deletes items from the display list, and resumes drawing the scene.

Locking is brief, just the microseconds needed for adding things to lists. The big objects are handed off across threads, not recopied. Adding objects does not slow down the frame rate. That's the trouble with the existing system. Redraw and new object processing were done in the same thread, and incoming updates stole time from the redraw cycle.

If this was in C++, I'd be spending half my time in the debugger. In Rust, I haven't needed a debugger. My own code is 100% safe Rust.

It's really sad that his story got flagged. I think it's a reasonable and well-argued opinion piece, and I can only assume it got flagged because some users vigorously disagree with the opinion. @mods any input?
Very important advice. I recommend everyone who builds dashboards check out the book. The big book of dashboards for understanding this concept more.

Always hit esc before alt-tabbimg out, otherwise I always get two cursors with differing sensitivity. And only one is actually the cursor. It doesn't crash until you re-enter and I can usually fix that by selecting it from the task bar, and when I get a blank screen I then alt-tab through all the open applications and back to skyrim. Wiccan magic indeed.
What kind of finance numbers do you keep, that you need 15 digits of accuracy.

Exchange rates are usually 4 digits. So where does the other 11 go and why do you need it?

For example, this 0,00000000001 of a dollar?
I am sympathetic to the point you make but to be accurate, one can consume and create C and C compatible dynamic libraries with rust. So, one is not “losing” something because what you (and me) want - dynamic linking and shared libraries with a stable and safe rust ABI - was not there to begin with.
Tail latency due to memory pressure tends to be inherent to the nature of garbage collected languages with mutable state. This is not an issue if you have more RAM then the system needs, but often RAM is extremely scarce.

I wonder if Proton as a PoW (Proton on Windows) wrapper would enable long term compatibility for games on Windows as well. While I use and prefer Linux personally I recognize there's many will continue to use Windows for years to come.
I am not sure what you are showing other than that you believe our population growth from mass immigration needs to continue despite the negative outcomes.

In 1985 our population was 25 million, and today it is now 38 million. Most of that population growth can be attributed to mass immigration. But we have no new cities or towns. We are simply crowding ourselves out of the minimal amount of cities and arable land along a southern strip that we can inhabit.

Also I don't think Japan is a negative example of population decline. They are an example of a country being able to maintain its standard of living, productivity, and its economy despite a stagnant population.

I strongly believe that if population growth through mass immigration continues (and mostly likely will), standards will continue to worsen across most of the country.
In Rust in particular (and many other languages) tan operates on IEEE 754 double-precision floating points ("double" for Free Pascal, "f64" for Rust). These can contain infinity and NAN values, not just numbers. So if tan blows up, you get NAN back. It's your job as the programmer to check that the result wasn't NAN (or INF) before proceeding. "Double" is already such a variant type. So you have to check your results which can return an error variant for errors, just like you already do with floating-point values.
This is Japan, very different work culture compared to the western world.

Disagree with 2nd statement. Tailwind is awesome for frontends, the way forward is to learn to compose. As long as you use bem style convention, with simple "flat" selectors, you can use both sass and tailwind and write less css (instead of no css, which I find extreme and impractical).

However that also means its perfectly ok to have one’s own system (cf. twitch, github...). Why not use a standard though? Tailwind saves us so much time coming up with a solid consistét utility set.

And then combine it with Sass

Toronto is expensive given the amount jobs are paying in the area.

SF a condo might be 1M, but getting paid 250k+ for a job is fairly common.

In Toronto the condo might be 1M (CAD), but getting paid 250k+ CAD is not common.

By all accounts Toronto is more expensive than SF

The prices are set by the Toronto Port Authority.

From what I remember, there was a a group of investors that wanted to purchase the boat, modernize it, make it into a really swanky, multi-purpose, venue, on the water. But by that point the Port Authority and owner had been fighting for so long that mediation/intervention wasn't possible.

It could be argued the Port Authority was charging him too much, perhaps just to get him to go. And that the owner was getting old, the best days of his restaurant were 30 years ago.
