I don't have anything but own anecdotial evidence to provide. Would be cool if there were some good, recent benchmarks between the two, but I wasn't able to find any.

Maybe I've just configured something wrong, but I keep facing this issue where autocomplete stops to think suggestions and might just freeze the whole VSCode for a second. This is in a small project that has some fairly large library definition files (namely, aws-sdk).

If you search for "TypeScript performance", you'll find a bunch of issues and posts discussing the subject, so I don't think I'm totally alone in calling it out.

Granted, Flow gets it's share of similar search results and I have also experienced similar issues where a recheck sometimes takes long and CPU usage jumps very high. This side of Flow has been consistently improving between almost every release, though. Most recently, a couple months back, their switch to this new "types-first" architecture [1] is supposedly unlocking something like 50%-90% perf improvements compared to what they vere before.

My point with this isn't to question your experience with Flow, I've sometimes faced similar issues. I'm just saying that, depending on the Flow version you were using, things may have changed a lot for the better.

Just so that I'm not talking _completely_ out of my ass here, as a quick very unscientific test I cloned the Tutanota project's repo [2]. SCC says there's 967 JS files, consisting of 205433 lines of code in there. Flow version is 0.136, which is a little behind, but they are using the new types first mode.

Much of it is burned off, but there are constituents that remain and need to be removed. This is called "dross".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dross

You can actually witness the formation of dross yourself if you make your own aluminum foundry (which is ridiculously easy if you have hair dryer, a coffee can, an empty propane canister, and some charcoal). My understanding is that aluminum oxidization contributes somewhat to this, but it's also caused by what's left over after the plastic and paint have burned.

Granted, I am in no way saying that recycling aluminum isn't 100% worth it. I was merely trying to address the issue before someone might have brought it up. (I've noticed some people despise the use of absolutes and always need to point out that nothing is absolute)

EDIT: For anyone interested in "recycling" their own aluminum, this is almost exactly what I did about 10 years ago, and it was a lot of fun. This guy's casting looks dreadful, though.

There are other tutorials that describe using a soup can as a crucible, which might work for a short time but I think that's pretty dangerous.

PDFs are horrible as eBooks, but in a manual I prefer the fidelity of a PDF than the reflowing of an ePUB, or the fickleness, slowness, and potential unavailability of a web page.

A well structured and correctly indexed PDF is a godsend, because you just open the table of contents, quickly locate what you're looking for, click and there is your answer. As I said, IBM excels at writing documentation. Every language has a Language Reference manual, and a Programmer's Guide manual. The first is for reference, the second is to learn how to use it, including examples.

Don't take my word for it, you can check out, for example, the COBOL manuals here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.1?topic=languages-cobol
I've stopped following anime for several years now. The trajectory of one punch man from it's humble doodle-like beginnings to mainstream speak volumes about the state of commercialization these days IMHO.

The isekai genre is definitely overused at this point, just as slice of life got done to death before it.

Lately, I've been having more luck w/ manhwa (Korean manga). If steampunk sci-fi with social commentary plot is your cup of tea, I've been finding Leviathan enjoyable.

BitClout for the Internet
Given the recent popularity of BitClout, I had an idea to build a similar platform to trade the internet. You speculate on the future success of a web property (think google, reddit, milliondollarhomepage etc.) and profit off of this just like you would with social currency attached to people. This is cool because:

Domain owners:
- Find and reward a new segment of brand loyal followers and use them to create a wider distribution network.
- Gain access to unconventional capital using founder reward tokens.

For regular folk:
- Own a part of your favorite website and profit on it's future success.
- Bragging rights!

Notes:
- Owners get a founder share by validating their domains through DNS
- Kind of like an abstract version of Digg meets Web 3.0

Ask HN: How does the account rank penalty work here?
I have noticed that many accounts (like mine) have an automatic ranking penalty applied when commenting. Rather than being placed at the top of the list with other new comments for a short period of time, they're automatically pushed to the bottom. It's similar to a shadowban but the comments are still visible to everyone.

What is the name for this and is it documented anywhere? I've seen several posts that discuss "undocumented" features of HN but so far none of them have mentioned this.
In VSCode, use Ctrl+Shift+P to bring out the command palette and type in your wish. The corresponding shortcut is also displayed.
Recently? Attack on Titan might be one of the best. It's a little too shounen-ish at times, but the setting is pretty mature and has absolutely no fan service. I've heard Vinland Saga is also great. The Promised Neverland is not about adults, but it's a very serious show and I personally liked it a lot.

Unfortunately, the rest of my backlog is mostly just older shows I've been meaning to watch for a while. Golden Kamuy is probably one of the newest and it's still not that new. Same for Parasyte, which has some of the best body horror I've seen ever. High on my list is also Shin Sekai Yori, which I've heard nothing but praise for.
I see. We'll try to fix this.
Thanks!
I often use "pom" as a temporary variable name. It's short from "(aux)iliary" in my language. Other words sometimes sneak into local variable names too. Meta-syntactic variables too like "jablko" and "hruška" instead of foo bar. On paper, some people are surprised when I put stroke on 7.
Oh, wow. I remember when I was looking for something like this...

As is "good" code, actually.
I've been thinking about just getting off the shelf system like Hivision IP camera and NVR, then run it on a separate network disconnected from internet. It shouldn't be much more expensive, but still I'd probably disassemble cameras to make sure there is no wifi of other means to leak data.
The Sega Saturn is not an good target to emulate as a lot of code relies on cycle perfect due the lack of locking between the two cores. The J2 has different cycle times from the SH2 used in the Saturn.

Since the J2 is quiet modular it might be possible to modify the timings but i somewhat doubtful that 2 vector units and two cores will fit on an affordable for hobbyist FPGA but i honestly don't know.

Edit: Changed DreamCast -> Saturn

Air circulates naturally, this idea won't work at all for other reasons but your calculations are:

2) without mention of the rate of water extraction or energy use per liter which is usually what makes these obviously useless.

HN is an extremely authoritarian web forum, maintained this way solely to prop up the reputation of YC as an organization. You're not allowed to have certain opinions because it will make the platform look bad, but of course censorship goes against the core beliefs of the western world so they can't exactly be transparent about it.

The more experience I have with this site, the more I've found myself hating it. And the smugness of the users here who believe HN is the one-true-forum is the turd on top of the shitcake for me.
It's hard to say anything about your use-case without more information, but I will say that one thing is that the way people talk about julia often seems to give people a mistaken impression about how to attain it's performance claims.

Namely, realizing these claims requires learning the language, and actually taking advantage of it's strengths rather than just writing 'python in julia'.

It's very common for Python users to show up on the Discourse forum and complain that julia is slower than python and then show some code that's basically just Python code written in julia, including a huge proliferation of global variables, allocating huge amounts of temporary arrays, etc.

There's also a huge spectrum of 'benchmark quality' out there. E.g. the benchmarks this HN post features seem pretty shitty and are not measuring anything interesting or useful as far as I can tell.

I have noted that chinese guys write code just like others but when they write comments in English, they mess them up. For example almost always, when they to save "imap clients typically request multiple messages at a time", they will invariably write "imap clinent typically request multiple message at a time". Note the lack of plurals.

Also, to add a further point: Because much programming is done by intuition rather than formalism is why there can be so much unintended use of a given program.
There are a lot of services (I think Amazon may even maintain a Chrome extension for this) that can take a web page and run it thru a "readability" service and then deliver it to your Amazon Kindle's email address which will add it to your library.

Not ethnic cleansing. Just a regular regime that pushes through using emotional calls.

The problem is not that collapse isn't certain. The problem is that solution is iffy to say the least. So it's one possibly bad outcome vs another possibly bad outcome. On top of that, one out come may come much faster than the other.

> APS-C sensors are maybe only a few hundred bucks.

Where are you sourcing APS-C sized MIPI CSI sensors for a few hundred bucks in low quantities?

Larger sensors tend to use SLVS-EC interfaces rather than MIPI CSI used in the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi doesn't even support full 4-lane MIPI-CSI (except on the CM4). It's limited to 2-lane MIPI-CSI.
I was messing around with the BMW iBus a while back and found a few repos with complete garbage code that was super useful for getting an idea of what the protocol looked like. Of course I didn't end up sharing mine, but ended up selling that car before getting beyond "wow it works!" :(
I'd have expected that the convex-concave and concave-convex solutions would be unstable, and that they'd average out to flat-flat.

If I understand you, you're saying that you get symmetry breaking instead, so that once it starts with either concave-convex or convex-concave, it continues going down that route.

Is that right? Is there a way to predict whether you get convex or concave on top, or do you just look at it after a while and say, "Huh, today I got one of these. Guess that's what I'll be looking at for the next N weeks of this project".
> The only way to avoid that is by not sending personal data to semi-/untrusted parties at all (Matrix).

With Matrix you still end up trusting the server sysadmin (both in terms of ethics and technical abilities), it's not like it solves the problem for mass communication where at least one user has to agree on a 3rd-party instance.

> those contacts connect to Signal with an IP address and are doing other things like updating their profile or registering their delivery keys for their account from that same IP address.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that happens within SGX. This in itself is its own can of worms, but assuming it's secure, I don't think you can do this association IP / account that easily. At least it seems so easy to work around that I would expect it to be like this (given that they already use SGX for other things). Now of course SGX is not secure, but it still makes the attacks more expensive and complex than they would be otherwise. If you have access to a Wire server, it would take you minutes to get all the group memberships of one user. If you have access to a Signal server, you'd need to log connections over some time, and do some statistical analysis to extract useful information. Not impossible, but far more costly and less reliable.

In terms of privacy Wire might be better with respect to the phone number requirement, but otherwise Signal has an edge.

The IP address is also something you can solve independently (VPN / Tor), so it makes sense not to solve it within Signal. But it would be nice to have some integration with Tor eventually.
Rep. Maxine Waters Becomes a Possible Witness Against Her Own Lawsuit
If you haven't watched End of Evangelion and the sequel movies, those are my favorite parts of the series.

Gurren Lagann is a wonderful homage to other mecha series. The series evolves in a REALLY interesting way, it blew my mind. Is worth sticking it out to the end!

Berserk (2016) is awesome, though I go back and forth on weather it transcends it's own violence. I'm probably just being a prude though, since nobody else seems to care haha.

DevilMan Crybaby(2018) is worth a watch. It is a gorgeously animated edgelord anime, run through a modern filter to make it more palatable.

Dorohedoro (2020) is bizarre and nihilistic and is written by a female author which is cool.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012 - present) suffers from being the product of a "less woke" 80's and 90's but man... I love it so much. It is so dumb and fun. There is a LOT of it but you just have to go along for the ride.

One Punch Man (2015) is great fun.

I tend to follow individual studios and directors.

Hiroyuki Imaishi has been consistently excellent.

Satoshi Kon is a legend, pick ANYTHING by him and you will not be disappointed.

Shinichirō Watanabe. I'm especially fond of Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo.

Studio Trigger makes great stuff.

I mean git projects aren't generally given a (YYYY) marker, since they're expected to be continuously updated - no reason it couldn't be updated tomorrow if someone finds something new, and it's not like the url is pinned to the specific current commit. I think it should probably just not have a (YYYY), even though it is prose.
There is something more than that. I noticed that the few highly-voted submissions I have didn't add the whole amount to my karma.

Tbh I don't trust passwords to keep my accounts save, it's 2FA all the way.

Passwords have this nasty tendency to get leaked, one of my older e-mail accounts is listed in 12 different breaches on haveibeenpwned.com

And while the ideal is not to reuse passwords, keeping that practice up with the number of accounts that are nowadays required with a somewhat digital lifestyle is kind of impossible, short of using a password manager.

But then you are locked into a password manager and gotta hope it works on all the devices you gonna need your passwords on or else you will be stuck manually putting in long and complex passwords.
Ode to the NYC Compost Scene
RISC-V was OK before the 1.1 spec. Version 1.1 is self-sabotaged by the RISC-V team, in such a way that you can't create a cycle-accurate software emulator running at reasonable speed. The dirty deed is in changes in the instruction encodings, multiple bit shuffling instructions in the emulator are now required to decode some 1.1 insns.

To me, this indicates that the RISC-V team has bad intentions, and I dropped RISC-V for this reason.
That's not in context to the article since most (all?) of the examples to be protected were illegal attacking property rights.
