Hash tables do that automatically.

Rehashing is controlled by various tunable strategies: Load factor (0.5-1), growth policy (primed or power2), growth factor (1.5, golden ratio or 2).

Linked list tables don't need to throw away nodes, they can just be relinked. But compaction is always better, because cache dominates. Most rehash do exactly that. Esp. multithreaded.

The best thing to do is to take a good one and don't touch it, unless you want a monster as in perl5. Eg the recent siphash security theater broke performance in all dynamic languages, even the linux kernel. Everything is perl now. You don't want that.

LENR produces more energy than any chemical reaction. How you will name it?
Huh, that's actually not bad. That makes the idea of connecting Asia/Africa/Europe with the Americas for 24-hour solar power seem doable. I assume it would be tremendously expensive to build, but also have substantial benefits long into the future.
That's a strange take considering millions of devices sold across the world running AOSP Android without any kind of Google software. From Huawei/Oppo phones in China, car infotainment systems, tablets used in Enterprise environments... Your own post doesn't really square with reality.
The amount of money needed to get a FAANG employee to exfiltrate data is by far higher than the amount of money needed to get a call center employee to exfiltrate data. That lowers the attack probability significantly since the payout must be a lot greater.
I was working with Spain, print companies, devs I dont want to remmember them too slow.
Local staff in Spain like shops, bars other staff funny to fuck with chiks but..
Spanish people worked for a few hours per day. I mean productive 2 hours all other hours/per day waste of time empty talks and fiestas.
All this thing is a big migration that has started and climate change.
New comers will show up there - work 4h per day just come leave your homeplace, sit, do nothing ,dont reproduce your life is not important.
And others will move to take migrants homelands upper where is more greener.
In 10 years to live is Spain will be hot, now its hot.
So 4 days per week it's a test drive how the world will look in the future wasteland for a slots and fruit, vegetables workers - food supply chain.
I used surge once recently, and it just works. What I didn't figure out when the same site is deployed to the same domain name, and when it gets a new one. I'm sure it's documented, it's just not obvious (and for a throw away web page it didn't matter).
Not to mention the bicep muscles are going to be stronger and easier to do the vibration with than ANY muscle in your hands.

At least, that's the way I figured it out-- by locking my hand and lower arm muscles tight, then using the strongest muscle in my arms (the biceps) to do the actual work.

48K minus the 6K VRAM and system variables! It's actually more like 41K.
Previous write-ups of this proposal were more clear it is not quite the work/life balance adjustment we want.

They're trying to get four and a bit days of value for four days pay. Society probably needs three days of work value spread over four days for four days pay. I know .. sounds unlikely but the thing about pay is, not paying well means people can't afford to buy stuff: it's not helping driving down pay.

What we need, is for employers to both put more people into work, and to expect a rational amount of work outcome per day.

Ask HN: HN reader app rejected by Apple because of Covid-19 stories
Hi guys,

I'm indie mobile developer writing small apps using mostly react-native. One of those apps is HackerNewsX an HN reader available for

[Android]: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hackernewsx&hl=en&gl=US

[iOS]: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hackernewsx/id1507756607

In my recent update to Apple Store, it has been categorized as an app providing services in the healthcare domain. Due to the sporadic COVID-19 articles which appear on HN.

Frankly, I am puzzled by this categorization. It would be great if you could advise what to do.

Full text of the review below:

*Guideline 5.1.1 - Legal - Privacy - Data Collection and Storage

We found in our review that your app provides services or requires sensitive user information related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the COVID-19 pandemic is a public health crisis, services and information related to it are considered to be part of the healthcare industry. In addition, the seller and company names associated with your app are not from a recognized institution, such as a governmental entity, hospital, insurance company, non-governmental organization, or university.

Per section 5.1.1 (ix) of the App Store Review Guidelines, apps that provide services or collect sensitive user information in highly-regulated fields, such as healthcare, should be submitted by a legal entity that provides these services, and not by an individual developer.

Next Steps

To resolve this issue, your app must be published under a seller and company name of a recognized institution. If you have developed this app on behalf of such an institution, please advise your client to add you to the development team of their Apple Developer account. If your client does not yet have an Apple Developer account, they can enroll for one as an organization through the Apple Developer website.*
The end of WW1 overlaps the beginning of the 1918 flu pandemic which killed far more people. Hard to believe the close quarters of trench warfare didn’t contribute.
Well, but does this

I'm from [name of big corporation] and I'm here to help.”

really sound any better?

I guess any big entity with lots of power has the same mechanism. Arrogance, intransparency and ignoring or misunderstanding (or knowing better) of the real needs on the people on the base.

Adding to this: If you want/need to mask your residential IP, still want access over clearnet, and have e.g. a VPS with a public IP that can front the traffic, the easiest while still robust way I found to do this is to set up a Wireguard VPN and use either microsocks+proxychains, or vopono.

Bonus that this works even if your server is behind some DMZ or bastion without having to open up the mothership.

(For the use-case of a public personal static site this probably doesn't make much sense; you could just publish to the VPS in the first place. But if you have server-side stuff you must or want to run locally for whatever reason, this is way more straightforward to get right than manually fiddling with iptables, using some SSH tunnel, or setting up redundant reverse proxies)
Penetration Testing Lab 15 by Pentestit – walkthrough
Ask HN: Should we clone all production dependancies?
Very recently Ant Design’s Github repo got hacked and the code was removed. Of course the team reacted quickly and the code was back up [0]

But this got me thinking, we are running several dependencies in production, what if one of them where to be removed, how will we maintain the project in the future? Yes, the build will be on npm, but what if needed to fix bugs or make changes. It could set us back months to replace a dependency such as antd.

Is this something we need to worry about? If so, will it be best to clone the source? What's best practice for this, should we fork or clone? And can we automatically pull future commits?
Try mirroring.

Don't offer anything new, just mirror their attitude and feelings. If they say their day sucked, you go "that sucks". Then you encourage sharing by asking for more details, and you join them in whatever attitude they have about the things they share.

That's it. Fake it till you become it. If you're sincere, it works from the start.
> Who refers to people as "mayonnaise"??

Self-hating white liberals.
I think your counting's off: if you want to count dwarfs then Ceres would be "Planet 5", in which case "Planet 9" would be Neptune most of the time, since only a small part of Pluto's orbit crosses inside Neptune's.

Pluto's number would also depend on the current location of at least Quaoar, Haumea and Makemake, since I know their orbits cross inside Pluto's. Pluto may also swap numbers over time with others, like Sedna, Eris, Gonggong, Orcus, Salacia, Varda, Ixion, 2003 AZ84, 2002 MS4, 2002 AW197, etc. since they have quite low perihelia (30 to 40 AU) so may also cross inside Pluto's orbit.

Dwarf planets seem to be lucrative business for those who sell wall posters of the solar system. I would hate having to learn all of their relative locations and interactions in school!

The STL is always the wrong solution for performance.

set: the worst. unordered_set: the worst. vector: no small vector optimizations. string: horrible. array: use small_vector instead. deque: slow. list and forward_list: nobody uses that for performance.

Thank you for sharing. I learned so much reading your through your blog. I hope you continue to post updates.
You are very much ignoring a lot of historical developments that lead to the situation that Berlin is in. Berlin used to be an industrial powerhouse, many well-known companies were founded there - Siemens for example. Borsig, Varta, Osram, ... had large factories in the city. However, after WW2, Berlin was divided and the western part hard to reach, so most companies relocated, most industries disappeared. Siemens moved headquarters to Bavaria. Despite all the self-inflicted problems that slow economic growth, the expectation that Berlin could or should be on par with other capitals is problematic.
> Your teeth can never heal. They either stay the same or get worse.

A dentist's job is to make them better.
I dunno. One could say that C string handling is "simple" (it's just byte buffers!) or that manual loops are "simpler" than proper iterator abstractions, but those are both constructs that are hideously error-prone in practice.

Perhaps it's the other way around and manual buffer management is actually the complex thing, since your application logic will have to involve a lot of code doing toil that isn't directly related to what you want to accomplish.

EDIT:

To expand a bit, I'm a huge proponent of simplicity; I think overabstraction is a massive problem with software nowadays. However, my thinking is that the problem isn't so much with the abstractions themselves, but that they aren't transparent. ORMs are a frequent offender here: a good abstraction wouldn't allow you to perform a thousand database queries by accident just by looping over a list. You could still model a list of database-backed persistent objects as a list, but any operation that hits the database should be an explicit fetch, not an implicit one.

Another difference between Prolog and Mercury is that Mercury lacks 'real' unification. Predicates must be moded (they must be compiled for some particular variable instantiation states). The compiler reorders literals in a way that free variables do not need to be represented in memory. Almost all the 'logical' side of the language is discarded statically at compile-time. The first time that I tried it (+ 20 years ago!) executables were blazingly fast! The bad side (at the time) was poor flexibility and very slow compilation time (compared with Prolog).

The Louvre is a state owned museum. It’s purpose is not to sell tickets, but to disseminate culture. The purpose of the tickets is limiting the visitors to a number that can fit in the building.

If many people opt to look at the works online and not in person, the Louvre can reduce the ticket prices without increasing the number of visitors and this would be considered a _success_.
There was a period of a century of bubonic plagues, occurring every 10 years or so. Plus other plagues during the same time. Just like today with reliance on global trade, the exact same situation existed in the Mediterranean area, with some cities focusing on food, and some on textiles or technology.

Sometimes only 2% over a large area would die, and sometimes 50% within a single city.

Combined with constant wars.
I believe the first war with more deaths from battle than disease was the second world war.
He he, except for the Italian incumbent energy company, where the only avenue is a Call Centre, even for complex cases... but it’s obviously a strategy to wear you down and give up on your complaint.

Pluto got re-categorized as dwarf planet because there were now more like it. Therefore, if you still want to call it a planet, it definitely wouldn't be the 9th one.

I tend to view the NFT craze as just that, a craze. It started as a massive and intriguing stunt that spread far and wide because of how absurd it all seems. It’s the perfect storm of “I don’t get this at all” combined with “you just don’t understand how revolutionary this is”. You also have the appeal of “why don’t I just make a few of these NFT things and make some money too?”

Additionally, I’ve read that the supposed $69 million dollars worth of ethereum used to purchase that famous NFT isn’t actually a transaction on the Ethereum blockchain. So there’s a good chance this whole thing was a farce to jumpstart interest in the NFT market itself.

Ultimately a few whales, famous people, and early adopters have already made out like bandits while the vast majority of people are barely going to make any money in the NFT market and it will sizzle out rapidly.

It is built with Shapespark - a desktop application for creating WebGL based tours that our company makes. It takes a 3D model as an input (we have exporting plugins for SketchUp, 3ds Max and Revit, but also support files from other 3D modeling programs), computes realistic, path-traced lighting, allows to configure interactions (like material pickers, HTML popup windows, video texture controls). A finished tour can be either uploaded to our server or hosted on own server.

The gravitational force would indeed be zero and a pendulum clock would not work. But the gravitational redshift between to locations is given by the potential difference, not by the local force. The potential difference between the surface and center of the earth can be calculated using Gauss' law and comes out to be 1/2gR, where g is the gravitational acceleration at the surface and R is the earth radius. As a result, a clock at the center of the earth would run slower than one at the surface by 3.5E-10.
Hadn't heard of this journal before but that was great. How true is it that men don't read Ferrante, or generally, about women?

There are multiple audiences for museum collections in the flesh, and multiple audiences for online collections, too. It's not and never has been "real" Vs "virtual". Well, to be fair this was a concern in the very early days when museums thought a virtual visit would jeopardise a real one - but not for years now...

So yes, nothing makes up for the visceral experience of seeing real art and heritage face to face but if you can't get there or are a researcher or school teacher or artist looking at historical techniques or...[insert many other use cases here], online collections play a hugely valuable role.

Plus of course, art like this is often paid for by the state and so the public "owns" it and should get the widest possible access to it.
Yes but just in the land of the Free.
No, but it’s not a ”government” problem per se, is what I’m saying.

I stated this to highlight the difference in goals of a democratic government and a private company - seeing as pensions got mentioned.

It is a ”governance” org type problem, sure, but this is prevalent in any big company.

Still sucks though.
Thanks for the links, absolutely great channels. I wonder if there exist something like curated "awesome list" of museums online? Because I don't even think it's possible to find these gems just doing a search on Google/YouTube which returns mostly low quality to spam results.
My personal feeling from the first RMS thread, is this site is full of people who want to defend RMS and argue against "cancel culture". They get upset when they find out the majority of the people who actually do the work in GNU, and have to work with RMS, want rid of him.

My son was attending Arapahoe High School when Claire Davis was murdered by another student. My son and his classmates hid in their classrooms, and were later marched outside by law enforcement, single file with hands on heads.

I learned about it at work, when my son texted me to look at the news.

While I was speeding down University Blvd, a two car convoy sped past me; Governor (now Senator) Hickenlooper.

While I was waiting for my son to be released, other jurisdictions' law enforcement were everywhere, even federal Parks Department, so that Arapahoe Sheriffs could focus on the school.

Governor Hickenlooper gave an update to the press and parents on the corner across from the school. It was very plain and direct, everything parents and community needed, no fluff.

They took our kids to a nearby church, and an officer from some other jurisdiction released them to parents one by one.

It took Claire Davis a day or two to die, but it was hopeless, being shot in the head with a shotgun.

The shooter killed himself in the school library, trapped by law enforcement, who advanced on him immediately.

That lesson was learned from Columbine High School, where law enforcement stayed outside while the shooters roamed the halls, killing at leisure, before ultimately killing themselves.

On the day of Columbine I was sitting in my office in Centennial. Out the window I saw news helicopters zooming past, lower and faster than I'd ever seen.

A minute later my boss raced out of the building. Her son, at Columbine, had called her. He was unharmed.

There is a beautiful video documentary created by a fungi photographer who has contributed footage to productions like Planet Earth and Our Planet. It really gives you a sense of the vastness and beauty of the fungal world that’s all around us yet invisible to most. Since watching it I’ve made it a point to be more observant when I’m outside and as a result I’ve been spotting interesting mushrooms all over the place.

> Are they clear?

Yes they are. The benefits are clear, because apparently a whole bunch of users got together a spent a bunch of effort building something that solve real problems that they themselves were having.

> everybody always simply gives the open source project the benefit of the doubt at being "better" when it probably just blows off a lot of functionality.

If people are using it, and spent a bunch of time and effort to solve their problems, then almost by definition, it is solving a problem that they were having.

So yes, we can just assume that it is better in some ways. If a bunch of people are using it, then almost by definition, it is providing value to some people.
There is hope for us yet!
> countries are not people, so criticism of a country cannot be racist

Then how do you explain those reactions? [1] "I'm sorry, but there's no other word one can use but racist".

GP is totally right, nowadays any remote criticism -- and I'm speaking of the factual ones, not the injurious kind mentioned before -- of a foreign country (except China, Russia and NK for some reason) by white people is labeled racist. And of course, people of color are allowed to speak anything they want against European countries, and spread hate speech mostly without any issue (granted one rapper is condamned from time to time... for instance Nick Conrad after singing "hang the whites" [2]).

If he did that, it would be hard to then sell it in the future because now you have to verify if the signature is real or fake. The frequency of art forgeries demonstrates the issue.

With an NFT, Jack just has to say that this one NFT is the original. Every subsequent transaction can verify the NFT's validity just using math.
