The fastest open source general digital logic simulator I'm aware off is Verilator, but obviously the speed of simulation depends greatly on the design and whether you are also generating wave forms (for offline viewing)
Guess I was wrong. Glad that didn't become a bigger issue.
It will more than a PaaS. Planned to have services integrated, that needed for your application, like analytics, error reporting, feedback management, etc.
While I think the reaction to Stallman was excessive, I am really tired of the "cancel culture" term. It gives the impression that this is somehow new, when "cancel culture" is one of those things that has existed since there was more than one human.

There has never been a time or a society where saying certain things would not bring at the very least calls for you to be "cancelled." In many other times and places it'll get you imprisoned or killed. Our society is extremely liberal when it comes to speech compared to the historical and global norm.

Here's an example from the Bush II era:

https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/dixie-chicks-were-cancelled-...

BTW I feel the same way about "fake news." It's another thing that is absolutely not new.
Even ignoring the things he's currently in hot water for Stallman is a terrible choice as the face of a movement.

As attested to by many who have spent time with him in person, his social skills are horrendous. There's a video of him at a talk, picking crap off his bare foot and eating it. He has some good opinions specifically on computer software, but as a person in general he's seriously lacking.

Is this really the best we can do?
That works well when you're far enough from others, male, and you can keep your balance in a small boat while standing.

A tin can / bottle works in more situations. You just pour it out over the side after then rinse it in the lake.
While I also think url based imports are a weird idea, it might just stem from the fact that I haven’t used it much, it might be wonderful, who knows.

But what I’d like to question is why the idea of parsing everything is considered bad. Semver itself, while miles ahead of what came before, is still just lies we tell the compiler.

You can never actually rely on the fact that a miner fix will not be a breaking change and the like.

Rich Hicky had a great talk on the subject of imports and breakage, and the conclusion that I agree with was to actually load and check every function in all the libraries you use, so that if there is an incompatible change you will not be none the wiser.

I’m glad people are trying to experiment here, as package management is far from a solved problem and issues with it cause sweat, tears and blood to most devs during their careers.
> I've since turned more cynical and believe that greed is as essential to humanness as empathy, if not more, and without a strong moral code (and fear of being ostracized for breaking it), selfishness wins.

It's not the baker empathy that brings you bread, but his greed

> The pandemic has violently dispelled any remaining expectation I had for a future cosmopolitan society.

The pandemic makes me hope more people will see governments for what they are: restricting their freedoms for no good reasons, so it's better to starve the beast.
They are also part of the EU, which wasn‘t the case in the British colonies when the UK was still part of the EU.
The Church has always taught that schism and heresy are mortal sins, and the teaching hasn't changed, even if most clergy don't talk about it.
Use a new (sub)domain. Your main domain can then simply redirect to whatever subdomain you wish.
Glad to see comments here in favor of openness. Starting to see encouraging little signs like this of the tide turning against the recent push for censorship/deplatforming/cancellation in so many spaces.

Threads that are union-related always seem very foreign to me on HN, but one of the greatest advantages of living somewhere there is trust between employees, unions, employer organisations and the government is that the basic facts can be agreed upon.

So you can have things like technical committees that analyse the basic facts of inflation adjustments of wages, wage changes in competing industries or economies and real wage increases. As well the unions in export-driven sectors negotiating first, and government and services employees falling in line, in order to continue to compete in the global economy.

I believe this trust also builds productivity, but looks like Jeff Bezos has a different opinion.
Oh, I agree. Everybody deserves regular breaks during the workday. People have to eat, drink, pee, etc. Lack of such breaks doesn't, IMO, excuse peeing in my yard.
What really upset me was the fact that i could still see their ads through the paywall. So I’m technically paying them through my “engagement” but i still don’t have access to the content. Insane.
Amazon lied about it very publicly. They lied and said they didn't even know about it, and then an avalanche of evidence showing they knew about it was released.
You could rewrite this as an iterator, which would avoid this problem and make the code much nicer.
Seeing those same comments in this thread reminded me of something Jordan Peterson questions: with this decline of religious-based narratives for guidelines, what is replacing it?
This says non-Catholics who have not committed a mortal sin can go to heaven, which includes "have no other God before me." Further, I'm pretty sure they consider the sacrament of baptism necessary to go to heaven, defacto ruling out every non-catholic.

edit I'm apparently somewhat misremembering things, and any non-catholic without a mortal sin has a supposed chance, but I still would say that rules out all non-catholics.
Stallman's problem is that he committed the wrong atrocity. The EFF, for instance, has been running to the barricades to support Chelsea Manning's right to be a part of the EFF.

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/02/military-prison-blocks...

If Manning wanted to file a pull request for some project, I'm sure the EFF would be out there fighting to enable it.

I wouldn't be surprised to find the same support for restorative justice from the people at Firefox and Tor. (Isn't the Rust project just an offshoot of Firefox anyway?)

The point is that anyone who believes in the principles of restorative justice and hates overpolicing should be fighting to make it easier for Richard Stallman to rejoin the FSF (and some of the other projects too.)
Why not write something more practical? For example, have them write a class that demonstrates a few design patterns like dependency injection, has a basic interface it implements (for example, a DrawPixelArray method), that kind of thing. This to me is far more informative about skills the person would be using in their day-to-day job.
A pyramid scheme on top of a pyramid scheme. Outlaw this nonsense already.
The username makes it even funnier.
Insofar as we take `.ts` files seamlessly yes -- though to be clear, one does not simply "run" TypeScript. There are no runtimes for TypeScript directly (there's AssemblyScript that _looks_ like TypeScript, but isn't exactly TypeScript)

We've simply incorporated the type-checking and transpiling steps into the deno cli, making it super simple to get going, no config needed.
That doesn't mean that there's an inherent bias against women in open source software development. If what you're saying is true, then there must be an inherent bias against males when comparing preschool teachers (2.7% male) versus public school teachers (24% male). I don't believe there's an inherent bias in either case and the skewed gender ratio which varies depending on the area isn't due to a single person or group of people.
Hi smw,
I've added a section that mentions the sshuttle to the original article.
Thanks for your suggestion!!!
Frank Denis worked for years for OpenDNS, one of the largest recursive DNS services on the Internet. While there he developed DNSCrypt, which has many users and was instrumental in pushing for encrypted DNS. And looking through his github, he has other DNS tools as well. DNS is a contentious issue and I don't agree with anyone on everything they say about the subject, but I agree with Frank here on the waste of absurdly low TTLs and in any case it's wrong to think he is inexperienced.
Never...?
Thinking on the "the halcyon years of AI," in the 70s and (maybe?) 80s, was there anything really "missed" then, or have most of the modern advances in AI only really been possible due to the increase in computing power?

To put it another way, if you were transported by to 1979 knowing what you know now (or maybe able to bring a good book or two on the subject) would you be able to revolutionize the field of AI ahead of its time?

The problem is that you may be in an early stage of infection where there isn't much virus, or the swab may not have caught much of it. You could also have already recovered from an asymptomatic infection, and there is some residual viral RNA. A high Ct could be because of one of those factors, or from cross-contamination.

Wow! Excellent feedback! Sincere thanks for putting in the time to not only try the app, but also share such thoughtful feedback.

I hear you loud & clear that you'd like an easier process for keeping your ingredients up-to-date. This is the common theme I see across your suggestions. We've got some great features in the works to make it happen. You touched on some of them. And suggested good ideas for others that we hadn't considered. Kudos!
Every acre-foot of lake is over 325K gallons or well over a million liters. A typical destination lake will have over half-trillion (0.5 x 10¹²) gallons of water in it.

Your and your 1000 friends' pint/500mL of urine isn't going to do anything meaningful to the lake.
We agree on the best outcome. What should workers do in the meantime?
Drivers break the rules all the time for various reasons. At one point I loved messing with drivers and would say 'so how many log books do you have'. My record is 6 (not sure how he kept that all straight). But usually they do whatever they can to have extra time to do other things. Lets say your trip takes 12 hours. If you push it all the way and do not stop maybe you can make it in 9. That gives you 3 hours to do 'other' things and get paid for 12 (harder to do these days with automated logs).
>the access pattern you're trying to use would actually result in undefined behavior with &mut pointers (or I assume C restrict pointers) [...] Obviously it's possible to fix this problem by having different guarantees on pointers (C's pointers, rust raw pointers)

Yes, I said as much in the last paragraph.

>but it's not clear that the occasional overhead of some metadata tracking (refcell) isn't actually going to be more performant than the constant overhead of not having aliasing guarantees everywhere else.

Generating panicking code where it's not needed is bad in general. It adds unwinding (unless disabled), collects backtraces (unavoidable), and often pulls in the std::fmt machinery.

Yes, in general it's almost certainly true that non-aliasing pointers produce more benefits regardless. My comment was in the context of the very specific example it gave.
top-level await isn't really trivial implementation or action wise. But as a feature it seems obvious until you step into all the edge cases it can create.
Some great logic there.

Put it on the one party to give into anything the other wants, because they're said to be important.

Does it work the other way in your mind too? If we all agreed that air traffic or say, Amazon, were a critical resource and has to run efficiently and for the country's benefit, not individuals, that means that they get to put whatever conditions on labor they like?

This is the worst kind of approach to governing ever, if it can even be called that.
This isn't new - Amazon workers have had to pee in bottles for years. From 2018: https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-warehouse-workers-hav...

I'm Portuguese (Southern European) and cannot possibly understand this comment ..

What do you care what others think?

What matters is that (at least my country) has reached a level of cultural and technological development that cannot be compared to what it was 20-30 years ago.

And I don't think the well educated younger generations share your silly inferiority complex too ..
Yep! Probably not immediately (this post was a writeup of research I did in 2019), but it'll happen. I also want to dive Byte Magazine archives to see if they have anything interesting to say, too.
I don't think a literal Adam is necessary for the "sin of Adam" to be a thing, particularly if you're in a mindset already where the purpose of Christ's time on Earth was to establish a kingdom, rather than just to deliver some pleasant homilies and maybe troll a few pharisees on the way to his real intention, which was dying and being resurrected.

In any case, the Bible can absolutely be miraculously inspired and still be subject to critical examination. Looking at the history of how the individual books have been studied, translated, and selected, it's obvious that the text itself had always been very much interwoven with academia and tradition.
A question for those who are against so-called "cancel culture": are there any statements from someone like RMS that, in your mind, should result in the FSF kicking him off their board? If he became a Holocaust denialist, or joined NAMBLA, should the FSF keep him on their board?
Almost all the examples was that they were written in Java and Java is not so backward compatible.

Perhaps a more conservative language with lower barrier to entry, say Python, would have kept these tools alive.
Your line of reasoning is similar to "Food comes from animals and plants. But where does animals and plants' food comes from?". Do you want to go all the way up to the Big Bang?

You learn your ethics from a combination of your parents and society, and you update your beliefs during your life, you share them to a younger generation. Repeat since humans acquired a conscience until humans cease to exist. That's all there is to it.
Atm, it's not aiming to be a production-grade system. Indie hackers, hobbyists, probably do not need that to start working on their side project. Also, I'm thinking of provide a hosted version of it, but not know. I want to concentrate on the features now.
I can't find the article saying that the most recent common ancestor between humans and octopi doesn't dream. I think that'd be quite hard to prove, since that species is likely extinct.
That’s not even good given where genX should be in terms of wealth accumulation vs, say, 20 year olds.
The hypothetical `foo` is a third-party library function.

(The real code which I reduced to this example is https://github.com/Arnavion/k8s-openapi/blob/1fcfe4b34a1f4f1... , and the callee does happen to be another crate in my control. While this can't be reduced to something like an Iterator, it can be resolved by making the calle take a trait with two `&mut self` methods instead of taking two closures. That still requires changing the callee, of course.)
> That person is likely to be fired.

Umm, yeah. They dumped a bottle of piss outside a customers house.

That's bad advertising. Or, possibly, it's intended to be good union advertising.

But either way, that person has got to go.

So many dishonest people downvoting. Probably unionists. We know that this case hangs on the difference between contractors and employees, and that even if employees unionize the contractors will choose to keep peeing in bottles.

- I've had the typescript compiler do WEIRD errors on me, depending on configuration, a zero configuration, no brain environment is a godsent

- it makes a ton of sense if you don't want to maintain two different versions of the same library. With WASM there is zero need for Node native modules anymore, so there is no need to have platform specific idiosyncrasies that go beyond Web APS's. Is the fact that it's called "window" a favourite of mine? Certainly not, but when you try to get a library running that you really need, that was originally written for the browser or vice versa, you don't care what the thing is called, as long as it's backwards compatible.

- defense in depth, multiple sandboxes are better than one

- this has to do with the window point, it's a lot easier to make code cross platform compatible if you only have to reference publicly accessible http endpoints

- maybe that's not interesting for you, but I've had to deliver command line tools as binary, and I'm super duper happy that I could do so in JS, the security I gain from controlling the runtime version is also much better than what I'd get from that being the users responsibility, besides that fact that not knowing exactly which runtime your code is gonna end up on is also a big source of security vulnerabilities

Most people seem to be arguing about the contents of what RMS said or didn't say, his legal/technical contributions, etc... but they are all missing the point.

Public leadership is a different role than simply being a thinker or a developer, and it has different requirements and expectations. As the free-software movement grew out of niche and into the mainstream, RMS "Peter Principled" himself out of his own job.

Why not AWS for that matter. There is difference between IaaS and PaaS. This is more in the realm of PaaS. You cannot compare with infrastructure providers per say, in my opinion.
Well, this is where we are. Delivery drivers are being crunched to make deliveries. Having someone pee in your yard just comes with the territory. Don't try to get them fired if they do that. I assure you many dogs pee in your yard any given day.

Maybe you need to clarify by what you mean by conflict -- do you mean violent conflict? Because ideological conflict and schism seems quite high between denominations, christian branches, and even within congregations. E.g Rob Bell vs Francis Chan / Tim Keller on whether hell is real and if Rob Bell is going there. A lot of evangelical groups today are "non-denominational" meaning they face these ideological clashes within their congregations.

I mean, as an atheist it seems obvious that they're all facing the problem of ill-defined views causing confusion. There's no ground truth so everyone's just interpreting it how they feel is right, whether that's by focusing on literal biblicisms or focusing on real world feedback / interpersonal relationships, and the lines are drawn around litmus test issues across the spectrum of christian beliefs.
10 years from now, someone else will be looking on whatever you were able to do with envy... well, maybe.
It's cute for scripts. Otherwise there's the trivial top-level wrapper runProgram.catch(console.error) entry point. It's just not a detail that does much to sell Deno.

Your comment does directly imply that you don't trust their overall decision making and/or rationality based on your personal worldview. I believe that's bordering on a vary narrow and limiting view of human rationality, culture, and worldviews. Though yes I would agree with you to an extent as overly dogmatic religious beliefs leave little for other viewpoints or venues of thought as well.

> it's too easy to cherry pick religious text examples to support anything

Certainly it's easy to cherry pick religious texts -- though there is some serious non-religious scholarly works in these areas as well but it's an area fraught with assumptions. The point being that it's not completely unreasonable to argue that (some) major world religions do promote aspects of rational worldviews (those being an orderly universe governed by knowable discernible rules). Perhaps your rationalistic or atheistic worldview is more correct but as with the view that certain religions promote rationality, that argument is fraught with challenges as well. That's my primary point.
I know you think you are helping but you are not. There is nothing worse than someone, who has no understanding of anothers mental health issues, just telling them to 'shake it off' or 'get over it'.
