Tested in the sense of test suites and formal proofs? That would be valuable to other disciplines using other tools.

But this article isn't about fundamental algorithms being correctly-implemented in an endowment of legacy code, it's about defending a siloed language choice, which seems like an antiquated concern to me.

I applaud anyone using a tool that works for them, but if it's good, then its users have accomplished things which transcend an individual tool.

In that case, advertisements for meat should also show the bottle of "supplements" that livestocks get (including B12, btw). In that sense, vegans just cut out the middlemen (or better: middleanimal).
Memory mapping lazily loads the file, completes immediately, and scales arbitrarily; using disk-backed virtual memory would require the entire file to be read from disk, written back out to disk, and then read in from disk again on access; it would also require swap to be set up at the OS level, and the amount of swap set up puts a hard limit on the size of the file.
This is usually what I am amazed by. The need for righteously justify things.
To play like this doesn't work for everyone. In a toxic and manipulative environment there is only a very fine line separating your intention of being liked and helpful, and in actuallity being considered a weak person who gladly takes over work from peers. This quickly turns into an expectation which will cause your workload to pile up. In the end your emotional capacity will drain and you'll act more touchy which will turn you into this weirdo who can't say no but isn't liked either. Then you start to decline requests. Now groups of co-scheming colleagues will be after you - they'll start to complain about how you're refusing to work on requests and will use their well lubricated channels to higher ups to bad mouth you. Those types of people also find this to be fun - so they'll make sure there is going to be a tag on your forhead saying "douch bag" and bring you intentionally into weird situations with outsiders.
The main point he is making is that this notion of "the physical universe" comes from pre-Newtonian science's attempts to model the world as a mechanical machine, where every interaction can be explained by direct physical contact between parts of the system, and the laws of motion.

This project seemed largely promising and successful, especially once Descartes came up with the idea of separating the mind, which didn't seem mechanical, from the physical world. So, after Descartes, the world looked pretty simple: there is a physical world that all works like a bunch of gears, and a mental/spiritual world where the mind exists, and these two together explain the universe.

However, Newton came along and discovered the law of universal attraction (gravity), which meant that the "physical world" does not in fact work like a machine, that there is no kind of physical contact that can explain the motion of the heavens. Of course, that also opened the way to the possibility that many other interactions are similarly immaterial, so the whole project falls apart. We do not in fact have a theory of the "physical world" and what it is.

I would note that Quantum Mechanics, even though it is highly unsatisfactory to our intuition, does get us back to a conception of a purely mechanical physical world (though with wave-like mechanics instead of gears). Unfortunately, for now, it STILL, 400 years later, hasn't solved the problem that Newton discovered. Gravity is still not accountable for in a mechanical, contact based way like the other forces are, even though GR has given a much more detailed model of how it works, and we have discovered gravity waves that prove it is not instantaneous action at a distance.

Of course, the main interpretations of QM have also given up realism , so while we do have an account of a physical world, it is unreal in a sense (that is, the world does not have any definite properties until you measure something; in QM a tree falling a in a forest really doesn't make any sound unless someone/something hears it). We also don't yet have any idea of how to define measurement, even though it is a kind of physical process.
What do you mean “didn’t begin to swap”? It should always be using swap. It starts locking up when you run out of both swap and RAM (because it’s run out of things to swap out that aren’t critical to what’s currently running). What it fails to do in time is outright kill processes.
It's what I've been told by numerous people who live in China. It's what I see on Chinese social media, and it's what Westerners who live in China are saying on Western social media. I'm sure there are many on HN who live in China - they can also tell you what things are like there.

If there were a major ongoing epidemic in China, it would be impossible to hide. Hospitals would be under the same sort of pressure that they are in Europe and the US. People would have family members and friends who got sick or who died. That's not happening. China is simply too tightly connected to the rest of the world to keep things like this a secret. In December 2019, the existence of the outbreak in Wuhan was known around the world within days of the first patient test results coming back.

Even Western media began grudgingly admitting several months ago the virus was essentially gone from China. For example, German/French public radio did a pretty interesting documentary on post-CoVID-19 Wuhan. The first scene is in a packed discotheque:

You're testing my memory now. If I recall correctly, at least complex numbers were in the WATFOR (University of Waterloo) FORTRAN-IV compiler that I used in 1968 on the System/360. (That said, I've always understood it was there from at least FORTRAN II.)

I seem to recall needing 'i' for vector stuff, Maxwell's equations etc. (If I'm wrong it must have been on the VAX FORTRAN-IV several years later.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
The addon is this one:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/auto-tab-disc...

On that page it says that it is recommended and that "Firefox only recommends add-ons that meet our standards for security and performance.". I have had no problems with any performance issues with it. However, you have to be very careful with it and make sure that if you are filling out a form or something that you tell the addon to keep the tab. Auto Tab Discard has the options to keep a tab for the session, or always keep tabs for a specific site. Just make sure it keeps the tab for a page that you are writing something on, otherwise you might lose information not submitted. I am not sure about this, I don't remember testing it, but just be safe.

As for the about:config settings, I believe they were these two:

browser.cache.disk.enable = false

browser.cache.memory.max_entry_size = 512

The first one is obvious. The second one limits the cache to only storing it if the entry is less than 512KB. My reasoning to change was that it should this to a smaller value was that smaller things like tiny images would be used across pages whereas larger things are less likely to be.

One I didn't change was browser.cache.memory.capacity, look it up if you want. From memory, the one that really seemed to matter was browser.cache.disk.enable to false, I really don't know why.

I hope it works for you. Have a good day.

But now they're stuck with an out-of-date OS that's never getting any security updates. Ever.

And it's exposed on the network because its used in Intel Management Engine.

Meanwhile the Linux kernel is going strong with many companies helping maintain it.

Seems like a shortsighted decision on Intel's part.
> Rust one you mention is multiple-producer single-consumer. And it is not nearly as feature rich as a channel in Go. By the time one deals with tokio, async/await, passing the (rx,tx) to the right thread with clone()/copy(), the developer would be tired.

tokio and async/await have little to do with channels (other than having their own async-aware versions).

If you need a real mpmc channel, crossbeam[0] provides one. The interface is similar to the stdlib's, but you can clone the receiver as well as the sender.

Because Wayland is a display service protocol. It's not responsible for secure message passing between desktop applications: that's the DE's business. Just because DEs used X11 as an insecure inter-process message passing agent doesn't mean it's a good design or even make sense.

Social media is the neighborhood bar, virtualized, with infinite seats at the bar, but no beer nuts (or beer). Truly one of the saddest places in the world -

Anyone can pull up a seat to the bar and many people do. Inmate conversations are drowned out by shouting matches over politics, sports, or whatever has raised passions that day. And there's constant yells of "What the #@$@ are you looking at?" coming from random patron to another. And hundreds of bar promotions for any and everything under the sun.

Keep in mind that inflation is most likely to have an "hedonic adjustment" in your country (I presume the US) too.

When you look at differences of prices from decades before, in my country you can see that electronics got much cheaper in general, but basic stuff and real state go more expensive, while salaries barely changed.

This is not the fault of X11 since it exposes all necessary data via the xrandr extention[1]. It is just toolkits like Gtk that choose to ignore that information on X11 but not on Wayland.

Indeed. This is the trick played by all platforms. Show one or a few good examples of someone who made it, then pretend that everybody can make the same money on your platform.

If it was possible for people to make this money, the platform would advertise with "N people make more than $X on our platform!" But they don't, so the conclusion is that the story is fake.

A cow won't divide between vegan and meat. It just eats what it likes. Apparently grass with insects. Because normal grass has insects with it.
Perhaps, but every thread needs the comments from someone who rode in one / test drove it once and just can’t wrap their head around how it can be driven without staring at the screen. Even to those of us who have driven them every day for years.

It was tired when the car first came out, but at least it was a valid concern. Now it just feels like an unwillingness to accept reality.
The App Store screenshot shows it as being free. I'm pretty sure "elaborate joke" is the correct place to come down on this.

What relevant viral theory do you think is wrong?

Virologists know a good bit about coronavirusus, and so far I haven't seen where any of their prior knowledge that has not been applicable to the covid19 coronavirus. I've been reassured by what this body of knowledge has always had to say about the dangers of retransmission, the longevity of immunity, and the immunity conferred across variants, amongst other things.

What do you mean about the illness being the result of stress and conflict? Are you saying that a covid19 is not transmitted by a coronavirus?

How does any of the above apply to the dangers faced by young people? Only 7000 out of 89 million have died so far in the U.S. That is a low number, especially compared to a couple years out of someone's lifetime. Do you pay any attention to numbers?
I've always thought, that the first small thing a project team should do is create their task management system.
It's got ui, db and workflow and business rules.
Whilst Jira has it all out of the box, if you can't create what is essentially a list and host it, then why would you think you could do more and be successful.
I think the default branch name change has been good for the ecosystem; “master” didn’t always make sense for whatever workflow was used, and it was hardcoded all over a bunch of tooling. I think “main” makes more sense, regardless of politics, and this encouraged a lot of software to make the default branch configurable.
There are still contributors and maintainers. Just release management "decided" that X11 is now deprecated.
Sure, and this is generally regarded as a bad thing.

"Currently"? It is worked on and might launch after 2025. Also, it is different from Hubble, so not a direct replacmenet. But indeed, with a total budget of over 3 billion dollars, launch costs are no longer the problem. Remains the question: why is it so expensive? Because it will have been worked on for more than 10 years and probably is over-engineered like hell, as you must not fail with a 3 billion dollar telescope.

The top review on Japan app store (translation by yours truly):

"recently work had been so busy that I was starting to get depressed. That's when uuddenly I wanted to eat taraba-kani (red king crab), but in my wallet was 50yen and not a Noguchi (the person on the 10,000JPY bill). I sighed and fiddled around with my phone...and that's when I discovered this app. At firsti thought this app would just be about gazing at crabs, but before I knew it my fingers had tapped the install button and I had opened the app. What a wonder! My fingers wouldn't stop using the crabs and before I knew it it was morning. As I was getting ready to go to work the crab at the top right of the screen spoke out to me, "work isn't worth it, you should quit." Tears flowed from my eyes. "That's right... I had tried hard enough." That day I resigned from my job. Today I'm living happily with 32 crabs. My house smells a little fishy but I'm having a pretty fun time now. Aah, I want to eat King crab..."

Looks like the app is now called crab home.
Exactly, and gits is not the same one as a slave master.
If we're referring to 'master' in the context of master/slave, then that's also not the same as the one git uses
Downvoted because sneering dismissal serves no purpose except to make discourse more toxic.
Can you find a single marxist-leninist who is also a postmodernist??

Postmodernism rejects any theories of the world that have any kind of absolute structure, while marxism is explicitly about defining such absolutes. In marxism, all people are either workers or capitalists (or outside the system); any good has an intrinsic value, and any work has an intrinsic plus-value; and on and on.

You can also see this in the art favored by countries which liked to claim to be marxist-leninist (though they weren't). Far from being post-modern, it was in fact traditionalist and realist.
You sound more hysterical than they do. How badly does this affect you and your life, really?
> I hear that you can go fairly crazy with swap sizes and have a system that works well under memory pressure, but I have not tried it myself.

We are running a distributed in-memory olap database. All nodes have 500gb ram used basically at capacity. One node has 1.5T of nvme swap (initially just for testing but it works well) so it hosts a shard and the manager/reduce node. We've tested forcing the nodes onto swap and saw a x10 performance decrease, but our implementation is pretty shit when it comes to memory access patterns so it's not too bad. The collocated node is slightly slower in terms of performance but doesn't impact total response by a meaningful margin.
What is the process to become a release manager for X11 without forking it? I assume you can't just walk in there and say "I'll do that".

Turns out it is:

> This term came from Bitkeeper, a predecessor to Git. Bitkeeper referred to the source of truth as the "master repository" and other copies as "slave repositories".
That saves two bytes.
Probably worth some context... the author very often writes about plan B Scottish independence, which calls for swift escalation of the independence process, including the economics. For example establishing a new currency in months, rather than the years more established economists advise might be less risky.

MMT is pretty popular with plan B movement, as it offers a speedy solution to things like deficit, austerity measures. Inflation is the main restricting factor on money printing, so those who want to rush into independence are always quick to downplay inflation risks.
Except that it is, as explained in the actual article.
> You got it wrong. Determination does not at all equal success. It equals the possibility of success. If you dont decide to try to be an artist, you wont be an artist, garanteed

Not only are you wrong, but you're completely ignoring the experience I just told you about. Why would you do that, unless you cared more about feeling that you're right than actually seeing what reality is? The experience I just stated is pretty common with all of my musician friends, which proves my point -- not only are you tonedeaf, patronizing, and treating people with kids gloves on, but you're just plain wrong, and you don't even care that you're wrong.

As I told you, I actually decided that I no longer wanted to try and be an artist. I gave up. And it's precisely when I gave up that something deep inside me began to form. Over time, some deep, subconscious force began to build, to push out of me an extraordinary compulsion to create. I didn't even want it to; I felt that I didn't have the determination to do it and so I wouldn't be an artist -- and that was "guaranteed" as you (and much of society) seem to imply -- but that's BS.

It turns out that what made me an artist had absolutely nothing to do with determination, and everything to do with my journey as a dynamic, evolving human being. Someone who goes through setbacks, someone who gives up, someone who is imperfect, someone who struggles. But fundamentally, someone is honest about reality, who doesn't varnish it -- not to themselves, not to others.

Paradoxically, by giving up and yielding, I gave my internal narrative and creative mental ground the time and space to lay fallow and become fertile to create actually great art. This is what you miss in your rush to focus on determination. You miss the exact mechanism by which artists are formed. You oversimplify it into an extremely facile sense of cause and effect, and in doing so, you completely miss the forest for the trees.

You have proved my point.
I for one think it's great that people are willing to make things a little more accessible for more people. If people want to be part of our community of developers I think it's great that these organizations listen to people who might have a problem with certain terminology. Even though I don't have a problem with those terms, I think it's still worth evaluating if they're worth keeping if it makes it harder for someone to be part of our community.

Hope more of you feel the same, as I'm getting kind of tired of the "the SJWs are at it again" shtick. There's also legitimate reasons to why these changes are necessary outside of some loud obnoxious screams from certain SJW-like people, that yes, are annoying to hear. Some of the response from our community to "push back against this" is just equally weird, tone deaf and childish however.

Say what you want, be we all know we've done silly refactors over smaller things. So don't make this bigger than it should be: it's about making our community bigger by making it easier for people to be part of it!
We should probably stop referring to nice teeth as straight and white too. Wouldn’t want to offend.

If you can’t disambiguate software development from human abuse the problem is your grasp of semantics not society.
> In my opinion, piracy is bad when it hurts small producers (which tends to be the case with books) and actually good when it benefits society in detriment of some giant corporation.

the problem with this line of thinking is that it's got a built-in personal bias against the monied and wealthy. Just because a corporation is rich, doesn't mean they can suffer detriment. The issue of corporate overreach in copyright law is a separate issue that should be solved using law and democracy, not a backhanded application of robinhood morals.

If piracy is benefitial to society, then it's just as beneficial if it was pirating an indie artist's content as well as content produced by a corporate.
Good question - the appears to be "no", since it has a clear origin and meaning unrelated to master/slave relationships.
