I just scratched my head tbh. Maybe they really want organic computing to work just like silicon-electrical computing?

At some point in cybernetic convergent evolution almost in parallel with the technological singularity, there will be IT architecture problems that will need to be addressed, and people on HN will bikeshed if square auxiliary optic nerve connectors or triangular ones are better. Just imagine being hellbanned for bringing-up circular ones, and no one else is able to interact with you. Eeek!
> I'm hesitant to even admit that far-left politics are more accepted

Yea, I should have been more specific, it depends heavily on the circles you run in.

> It's frustrating, because I think that the left should chill out with the identity politics

It seems to me like this is not uncommon. There's a lot of oneupmanship in politics where whoever is the most rigid and unyielding to complexity in their belief system is the most worshiped because people can't distinguish a rigid ideology from an internally consistent one. On the left this results in constant twitter mobs and on the right it results in capitol mobs.

That said, while it makes an easy target for the right to rally around, if that were to go away, the reality distortion field would just target the next-lowest hanging fruit.
Regarding your suggestions for #4, personally

a) I'm not a fan of those weekly summary things. It tends to become routine and will probably sit unread or something, unless of course it has a lot of quality information that I start looking forward to it.

b) At the end of the day, I would still prefer specific instructions like

i) your target audience tends to read their tweets between the hours of X & Z, so do your tweets then

ii) these are the leaders/influencers in your segment so you should target them (I think a great selling point for your product if you can do it, is identifying the influencers in a user's target)

iii) these are top/trending hashtags in your target audience. Do you have anything that can fit into it? If so, then tweet using that hashtag

With a scrap of paper holding the PSS codes and login info I was introduced to MUD by 'Innocence the Witch', school computer lab admin by day. I played from 1982-84, usually ~5am-7am on weekdays and 2-7am through on the weekends. It was enchanting being in this imaginary world with other people. The PvP was exhilarating.

The F50 article munged together Essex and MUD2 a little, iirc Essex went dark ~1984 and at launch MUD2 was a refactor, unplayably slow and expensive. It went dark quickly.

I made some MUDs of my own... and that scrap of paper led to a startup career in MUDs and MMO development.

I sometimes wonder what the formative experiences my kids are having in Roblox, Minecraft etc. will rustle up in their futures.

> Not only is this toxic, it's also counter-productive when we're supposed to pretend that women aren't half of society and thus perfectly capable of contributing to gender roles

I never said or implied that.

The fact that members of oppressed groups can be bigoted (including against their own group) isn't a novel concept.

Yes, women can be sexist against women, and yes, women can be sexist against men. That doesn't mean patriarchy doesn't exist.

> And before someone points to male over-representation in government, maybe think for a moment: whose votes put those men there?

That's not really convincing.

Rich people and families with old money are over-represented in government. And yet we must presume that poor people voted to get them in place too. There are explanations for that (eg maybe rich people can afford expensive schools where they learn to be competent politicians), but overall any system that can select against poor people can select against women too, even if that system is mostly democratic.
The performance of the Go runtime with a million blocked goroutines is pretty OK, but its performance with even 1000 runnable goroutines is not great at all. You really need to think about which you are going to have.
Counterculture completely aligns with corporate America now, it’s fascinating.

The punk manifesto could be written by McDonalds.
If you put it that way, then sure it more or less necessitates a walled garden and some trusted party that verifies everything (according to its own standards). But then I'm skeptical of this nanny approach. IMO it's okay for technology to require education. After all, locked-down devices have only been a thing for the last 10 years or so. Computers used to be open by default, and operating systems were much less secure in terms of what applications were allowed to do, yet somehow, people survived that.

It's like governments. It can be a surveillance state ruled by a dictator where everything is regulated and everyone is spied on for the sake of "safety". Or it can be something that offers all the freedom you could possibly want, including the freedom to shoot yourself into the foot, both literally and metaphorically.
Possible deeper solutions are to end the centralizing trickle up economics of ZIRP, or to stop time. But either one of these is less likely to happen than targeted anti-trust. I get the idea that the market simply sees regulation as damage and routes around it, but that defeatism is also a large part of our national psyche that lets ourselves be divided over surface issues while capital buys loopholes. We've been sold this unsustainable ratchet strangling humanity as some kind of inevitable progression, and at a certain point we've got to say enough is enough and push back within the paradigm rather than thinking we can escape it.

> The "Desktop" is essentially a solved problem.

Serious question, what are the key differences and tradeoffs between the DRI3 and Wayland APIs? I've done some OpenGL programming, but always in a fully abstracted manner (ie using cross platform wrapper libraries).

As a bystander, my impression is that the real issue (outside of refactoring a massive codebase & associated ecosystem on a volunteer basis) is one of security and efficiency. Without reworking the underlying protocol to require compositing, how do you properly sandbox applications from one another? And as long as you're making such a significant overhaul, why not throw out a bunch of cruft and split off any extra functionalities into their own standards? And as long as you're doing all that, why not completely restructure the protocol to handle things like minimized windows updating thumbnails of themselves at an interval determined by the compositor?
I agreed that "B" does match. However, the puzzle needs to match the full line and not just a substring so "ZZZZZZ" or "B " don't.
>his opponent was winning, results stopped being published and he proclaimed himself the winner without even finishing the count?

First, his opponent was never winning. His opponent was barely inside the 10% margin needed to secure a runoff election. And though Morales claimed himself the winner before absolutely all the votes were counted, he still left open the possibility of the runoff election being held.

No significant fraud was ever found to have occurred, but after bogus claims of fraud Morales agreed to hold new elections. Morales was ousted from power before any further elections could happen though. If you want to claim the election was corrupt, his opponent Mesa should have become president. What happened was clearly a coup.
Exactly!. Just few days there was criticism of Rust's async story. Now it could be most likely wrong on some technical details, but Rust folks took it so personally and called it an attack on folks to who developed async system for Rust. This time and again shows they really hate any criticism which is not approved by Rust cultists.
This is interesting. Could you elaborate on the real world requirements please? What do you mean?

If they are not engaged in discussions about business priorities, they won't have the context or motivation to align their actions appropriately. If you hire tech people with soft skills, you can have them do rotations on support (and even sales), involve them in higher level strategy decisions, and avoid the CEO -> product manager -> designer -> developer pipeline that makes everyone feel like a cog, and detaches them from anything but their own little area. You can also align their financial incentives with company success (ownership), and give them ways to actually influence it in tangible ways.

The advice to read Practical Typography is good, but ironically not super practical. It would be a lot of time invested for a small practical benefit in this narrow situation.

Personally, I think you could increase the contrast between text and whitespace more (i.e. use a darker font color, maybe #222), shrink the font-size a little as the other comment said, and most importantly, set a max-width so that the text doesn't expand arbitrarily when viewed on larger screens. 700 or 900px feels nice to me.
Chromium has site-isolation (with some caveats around phones with limited resources) so both Chrome and Edge have site-isolation. Firefox is getting very close with Project Fission [1] and I predict they'll ship it relatively soon. Currently Safari doesn't have site-isolation and AFAIK they have not publicly committed to anything in terms of getting there. They have done some work in this space (search around for Process Swap on Navigation (PSON)) but it isn't complete.

Daryl Davis does not scale.

Pithy, but I say it after being a big fan of using him as an example.

Persuasion has moved from the cottage industry of human interaction to industrialized consent manufacturing.

Fox and cable television were the steam engine, social media is the industrial revolution. Human scale approaches such as Daryl’s are akin to using buckets to drain a sea.

I think the latest theory is someone close to him peeked at his unlocked phone?

Like, I think there was something about the journal threatening to release the photos and being able to describe the photos, but they never followed through or sent a proof that they did have the photos, which suggests someone looked at Bezos' phone but didn't actually download the data.
No, the article correctly points out:

> A thread is only 3 times as large as a goroutine. Absolute numbers are also significant: 10k threads require only 100 megabytes of overhead. If the application does 10k concurrent things, 100mb might be negligible.

If it's still not clear: if your application has a good reason to run 10k parallel tasks it's most likely doing something complex that requires plenty of RAM.

It's very unlikely that you really have to save those 100MB of RAM and at the same time you cannot rethink the architecture to stop using this level of parallelism.

And even so, that would justify using a coroutine library, not a whole programming language.
Or, hopefully, smart people will realize that proof of stake is a better solution, and this will go into the past.

Unfortunately, the world is filled with dishonest, disgusting, malevolent sociopaths such as yourself who would rather watch the oceans turn to acid than transition between asset classes.
We also call elections before all the votes are counted here in the US. Morales did win that election, the suspicious patterns that were reported were bogus. The NYT had to issue a retraction over it, despite the fact that coverage at the time pointed out exactly the flaws mentioned later.

You're also leaving out that Morales resigned and fled the country. And the fact that after the "interim government" was dissolved, Morales' very same political party won again.
And yet by 1995 Bill Gates was appearing in a video promo for Doom on Windows, wearing a trenchcoat and carrying a shotgun. For obvious reasons, this kind of nerdy frivolity wouldn't really be palatable after 1999.
Yea. I do this personally - it's easy copypasta since it infers types for you, and as it shadows the iteration var it's impossible to use the wrong one. Same trick works for other local vars e.g. outside the loop, though at that point it's just as not-copypasta-able as the `func(arg){}(arg)` construct.
Just because there are no patches available, doesn't necessarily mean no mitigating actions can be taken. So, yeah, I do want to know about them.

I was born in Argentina, I understand the pain. People that don't have credit cards is mostly because:

a. they are not in the financial system, meaning they get paid in cash, etc

b. they get paid too little or they have debt so their score is low and therefore they don't get access to a card

Your solution seems to be more suitable for people that can actually access a credit card but they find them "hard" so they can opt for something like your solution.

Curious to hear your take on this.

> “Cancel culture” works because a majority goes along with it.. if it really was just the shrill minority everyone frets about everyone could ignore them, but it’s also lots of persuaded people who either agree or don’t disagree strongly enough to ignore them.

Your comment made me curious, and I found out Politico took a poll: https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000173-7326-d36e-abff-7ffe7.... 46% think cancel culture goes too far, 10% thinks it goes not far enough, 18% say 'neither', and 26% don't know. The kicker, however, is that Politico defines cancel culture as "withdrawing support for a public figure or a company". That is the softest, most benign definition I can think of and it notably excludes all of the ordinary people who were terminated because of a coordinated harassment campaign. It strikes me as almost pleasant--"we're angry with you, so we're going to go away and leave you be!".

I think for a more reasonable definition, and especially when primed with specific incidences of cancellation (especially ordinary people who lost jobs), far more would disapprove. I don't want to quibble about definitions, but I'm expressly not concerned about celebrities "losing support" and much more interested in low and middle class families losing income and healthcare.

I think "cancel culture" mostly just works because it takes society some time to collectively identify a problem and organize to find a solution. At present, there are at least a handful of bills in the pipeline of various state legislatures to combat cancel culture, all of which would be horrible from perspectives of free speech and academic freedom (the best approach I can think of is to strengthen employment protections and take away the bullies' stick). The point is that just because political opposition hasn't organized yet doesn't mean that the majority of people are ambivalent or supportive.
Thanks for the correction, that is indeed a bug!
I've worked extensively in the space of Designer who understands technology/code.

Might be a bit biased because I've been able to excel in the space of designer who can also code their own prototypes and can talk to devs on their own terms. But personally I believe there is more potential in leaning more design side, few people have this skill set and if you find a company/build a company that appreciates it you can pretty much control the narrative because whatever direction you want to go you can just spin up enough of a prototype to sell the concept to the stakeholders yet also have the luxury of being too busy with design work to actually do deep end engineering.

Just being extremely honest with my own strategies here.

The antisocial social club most def raises the Jolly Roger flag against "social" media. ;-]

At some point, I just want a private platform that is paid for using microcredits, no ads/data harvesting, requires verified named people with faces (improved communication quality), connections only stay alive if you actually interact with them IRL, doesn't automatically share everything with everyone in a single context, and doesn't promote dangerous behaviors for likes/shares. The only purpose of hidden rating tags (in lieu of likes and shares) should be that a viewer's own incoming content gets slightly prioritized. Oh and no instant notifications, no news link sharing/"retweeting", no messaging or chat (there's email), and a user only gets to look at it twice a day. Basically, solve many of the societal and social problems FB exploits and creates.
The fact that speech can be distinguished from action does not in itself provide a reason to prioritize speech over action. Further, speech and action share a number of commonalities that there are good arguments made (by Susan Brison and Frederick Schauer, for instance) that the categorical difference between them rests on a philosophical error.
