You're saying that the failings of the formal procedures will be made up for by the benevolence of the person exercising investigatory and judicial powers.

Perhaps the way the project actually runs is fine - after all, I don't know you nor the project. But generally, that's not the case. When I consider collaborating/contributing significantly to a project, and I see something like this CoC, it is a large red warning light. (Which is a bit ironic considering it's supposed to enforce inclusiveness and a welcoming atmosphere...)
Don't follow rules blindly though, in either direction. Passive can be a better fit sometimes. Long sentences can be okay sometimes.

I'd be pissed at a prof for having such rigid overgeneralized rules.
What the debate actually is about is whether it is possible to be subject to sexism or racism, whether those can influence outcomes and whether it is valid to talk about those. The problem is that if you state it like that, people will argue whether sexism and racism exist. So, op and the rest of HN go for the next best thing: trying to categorically deny that is is possible to be harmed by actions of others.

Note how there are no complains about harm of victimhood when single guys complain about being single and blame society for it.

The real topic here is that there should not be such a thing as activism. It should be shameful to talk openly talking about disadvantages or -isms. Instead, you should pretend none of that exists, so that everybody feels good about society being fair. It makes you feel safe and in control too. Bad things happen to people who deserve it.

Again if you actually read the bug report, it contradicts what you're saying. This patch was rejected because it created unnecessary work for terminals outside the GNOME project. The favored solution would help all terminals using that widget.
I fully support the legalization of marijuana. Again you have raised interesting questions, at what point does society have the right to impose restrictions on your free will and at what point are people pushing clearly harmful products to willing consumers liable? I don't know the answers, but these are things a society wrestles with all the time as it evolves.
Pulling the plug on a desktop computer ain't hard. I actually dont have camera or microphone, either on the desktop pc (although headphones can work as a mic, even harddrives can).
Yes, because authoritarian policing drives out anyone who can get out and career criminals tend to not have very long term living arrangements.

All Giulliani did was move the problems to New Jersey.

It was successful in reducing crime in his jurisdiction. It didn't really reduce crime in the NYC metro area relative to anywhere else. Crime dropped off a lot over the 90s and '00s everywhere.

There's a really wide gulf between police state tactics that ignore people's rights (90s stop and frisk) and the current situation in parts of the country where crimes with a victim that people are complaining about are ignored or given such a small slap on the risk they have a positive ROI.
Seems to me like those with the greatest liberties face the least accountability.
Konsole being a KDE app lets you disable internal tabbing. It's still single-process, so opening new terminals is just opening a new window from the same process.
The headline is a lie, right? There no "Uber" part. I guess that's the point of the quote marks, to contrast all the bullshit lies and phony origin stories and pitch decks of the VC world , against the reality of the work your business does.

There's plenty of room for ethical mortuary companies to make money providing value and distrupting a deeply exploitative industry.
But maybe it can't be done with (ironically named in this case) culture capital.
And if you find you get a lot of the toxic variety coming from a certain instance, you can block it entirely.
It is okay for games to have limited gameplay until you use in-app purchases to unlock more features. You could easily have an app that provides a limited bit of functionality, but then allow you to unlock more just by changing this setting. Especially if any of the monopoly cases against Apple forces them to change.

Ray on IBM Cloud Code Engine: Boost Your Serverless Compute
Illumos is a fork of Solaris, itself a UNIX System V derived OS, very much not a BSD, though taking some code from BSD. I'm not sure what license they make new additions under, but the core is CDDL licensed and not BSD licensed, anyway.

(side tangent FWIW, NetBSD has no qualms with using GPLv3 GCC, only Free/Open do)

(Edit for another historical tangent: Sun helped create System V release 4, which specifically combined element of older SysV with BSD. Additionally, Solaris/"SunOS 5"'s predecessor SunOS 4 was a straight-up BSD. So Solaris is a pretty BSD-y UNIX, in a way...)
> but Square actually had an alternative way of managing UI flow

Are you talking about Flow/Mortar? Those were pretty much abandoned and were, imo, overly complex.

That said, the Android UI flow was pretty bad before. Hopefully Compose makes it better.

IIRC Square had a technical manager (maybe CTO level?) who came from Android at Google, which may have helped. Square also open sourced early iOS tools like PonyDebugger which were ahead of the game when they came out. When they hired Jake Wharton they got a stellar champion of open source software creation whose focus was Android.
> Wait then why do literally none of the staunch vegan people I know look like this?

Maybe your are lying or in denial? I have first hand experience with the cult like properties of the vegan movement. It's very clear from how ex-vegans - people how really tried to embrace veganism, but had to quit because of health issues - are harassed by current vegans, any criticism of the movement cannot be tolerated and ex-vegans are very dangerous as they expose that veganism is not for everyone.

Expanding Single Page Apps into Multiple Browser Windows – Part 2
I expect glibc, musl, newlib to have at least some RVV optimised functions (memcpy, memmove, memset, bzero, strlen, strcpy, strncpy, memcmp, strcmp etc) very soon. Certainly for RVV 1.0, but I think also for RVV 0.7.1 since a lot of boards are going to be sold with that.

Simply having RVV versions of these in the standard library will instantly get most of the performance improvement available for general purpose code.

I will be personally pushing for that as 1) I'll have RVV 0.7.1 hardware probably this month, 2) I know both RVV 0.7.1 and 1.0 well and can write these routines in my sleep, and 3) I have FSF copyright assignments in place for gcc, binutils, glibc.

If you are only interested in computing devices with contemporary x86 or M1 performance then, sure, it's going to be quite some years before you have to care about either SVE or RVV. Apple might well implement SVE sometime soon -- obviously no one knows.

I'm typing this on a 16 GB M1 Mac Mini. It's replaced my 32 core ThreadRipper running Linux for day to day use as it's silent and has snappier UI, and is faster for anything using up to four cores, and not all that much slower even for things that sometimes use 32 cores.

See for example the last test in http://hoult.org/arm64_mini.html where it's 71% as fast as the ThreadRipper building the entire RISC-V GNU toolchain in a Linux for arm64 VM. Actually that was on a Mini with 8 GB RAM where I couldn't afford to allocate more than 4 GB to the VM. It's faster than that on my current 16 GB Mini.
It is both but I believe the comment you were replying to was saying violence prevention programs are harder due to the number of guns.

So NH having a high amount of guns isn't really a counter example. The point wasn't that guns are the sole cause, but that their prevalence makes it harder to resolve a violence problem (that stems from many sources).

Or if I am assuming too much about the original posters view, I can instead just say this is my view.

You're saying that Rogin reported that Anthony Fauci "covertly funded gain of function research", and that this fact (which constitutes an absolute blockbuster story) wasn't reported or corroborated anywhere in journalism, by an author who's everywhere in print and on TV but who somehow never said this in public, and the only linkable source is a podcast?

Yeah, this didn't happen.
Interesting that there was teaching on how to write at all. In my technical PhD in Germany we had zero instruction on writing other than feedback from the prof near deadlines.

Python has described itself as a "batteries included" language for many years -- Python was the language that popularized that term for describing programming languages.

This is an interesting exploration of the incarceration statistics, but it doesn't go one step further and explain why American prison sentences are so long.

I've seen numerous explanations for this, one being that there is a strong incentive for US politicians to look "tough on crime", a greater emphasis on retribution than rehabilitation, historic racial injustice, and a sizeable for-profit private prison industry. But other developed countries also have these factors to some extent, for example the UK's private prisons house 18% of prisoners compared to the USA's housing 8%.

In my view, understanding the cause of why these long sentences are considered normal is essential to preventing a lot of pain and suffering. There are several examples of harmless people given life sentences for marijuana possession under three strikes laws, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. A society that is obsessed with freedom yet incarcerates more of its citizens than Cuba or Russia, and hands down disproportionately severe sentences for transgressions that would be viewed much less seriously in other countries, is a bizarre phenomenon with a huge human cost.
Mushrooms on Mars – and Proof of Life
The current system is we send a Derek Chauvin to your house. Your choice whether you view that as an improvement over the old system.
Yes. Sway represents the world as a tree. You can nest containers as you like. e.g. H[firefox T[Alacritty Alacritty]] describes a horizontal split with Firefox on the left side and a tab container of two Alacrittys on the right side. If you want H[S[T[T[Alacritty Alacritty] H[Alacritty Alacritty] Alacritty] V[Alacritty Alacritty]] Alacritty], go wild!

When you subsequently want to move a group of things around, you can focus the parent container and move it around as though it were a window. (Out of the box, Super+a is `focus parent`, though curiously there’s no `focus child` binding in the default config, so to return to a child you pretty much have to focus a sibling or another container, or use the mouse.)
I wholeheartedly agree. If you want to depress yourself further, think about how much potential for good we squander on the web in terms of medical information.

If we had designed the internet differently (eg: with considerations for privacy, authenticity, verifiability) we could pool resources and have millions of people report on medications, treatments, nutrition, etc.

If a regular person uses the web we actually have today to do their own health research, they're playing dice with their life.
> Alacritty is very slow on startup

Can you quantify that? Are you talking multiple countable seconds to open? It seems to open instantly for me but I can't tell if your talking about 0.5s or 5s being slow.
Honestly, I think the "killer app" for C++ was generics. If you could write a generic data structure in C without using macros (which are extremely hard to debug), nobody would have wanted C++. However, the Linux Kernel is stuck with AVL trees and primitive hash table algorithms due to complexity, while C++ programmers can blissfully use B-trees and fast linear probing hash maps without worrying about the data structure.

Testing on Mobile Devices the Easy Way
I never actually wrote programs with risc-v vectors instructions, only for other ISA, so you seems to have much more experience than me on on that. Thanks for sharing your experience, and for the discussion.

> "multiple" doesn't imply "not fixed".

But in the case of risc-v, it really is "not fixed".
For example, can you tell me the number of cycle it takes to execute this instruction: `vadd.vv v3, v1, v2` ?

Another example, in your implementation of memcpy:

```
0: 86aa mv a3,a0

0000000000000002 <.L1^B1>:

2: 00267757 vsetvli a4,a2,e8,m4,d1

6: 12058007 vlb.v v0,(a1)

a: 95ba add a1,a1,a4

c: 8e19 sub a2,a2,a4

e: 02068027 vsb.v v0,(a3)

12: 96ba add a3,a3,a4

14: f67d bnez a2,2 <.L1^B1>

16: 8082 ret

```

From what I understand, you can't tell how long each vlb.v or vsb.v will take on a given processor,
as it depend on the number of elements that will be returned in a4.
The last iteration of the loop for example will probably take less time than the others,
because the instructions will only have to load and store the trailing part of the data.

> If you look at the result of a vectorised memcpy() I did on the D1, you can see that the execution time is absolutely identical at 30.9 ns (31 clock cycles at 1.008 GHz) from sz=0 to sz=64

Again, I'm not arguing against the efficiency of RISC-V vector extension. I'm sure any processor designer will be able to implement it as efficiently as if the instructions were closer to the raw compute logic.

I'm not even arguing against the extension. If anything, I think I would prefer if an open CISC ISA was gaining popularity as an open source platform instead of RISC-V, because it would have the same portability implications, but with smaller code size and memory footprint, and while leaving a lot of room for innovation and optimization on the actual design.

What I actually argue against is calling it a RISC ISA, because while the core of the ISA is RISC, this vector extension is not.
Stability: The format is still evolving

Performance: Arrow does not do significant compression. Feather started adding it, but that adds even more change risk. Parquet/ORC/Arrow are all fairly similar, so until Arrow catches up and stablizes, I'd stick w/ Parquet/ORC. We do GPU stuff, and get in-GPU decompression already, so that's been a win/win.
I've long since stopped buying anything from Amazon except the occasional book. You can't trust reviews, but you also can't trust that the product you think you're buying is what it says it is. It doesn't really bother me that I "can't" buy from Amazon, there are lots of alternatives these days. There are even more local options than before.
In this case it's probably fine to block, but in most others it's absolutely not.
I have to agree with this sentiment. In general, I look for long term use reviews, any sign that a product will fail both beyond the return period and warranty period.

If my trust in long term reviews erode, I'm inclined to buy less.

Word of mount is a powerful tool that amazon has harnessed with reviews, and has seemingly replaced the need to see a product in person before a purchase.
Hmmm... I was trying to point out that speculation may be more ideological than evidentiary. Was that missed, or am I the one driving in the slow lane?
> "free in license only"

Very interesting. Thanks.

Are you familiar with Bryan Cantrill's "right to fork, but not the power" observation?

It deeply influenced me. Alas, I didn't find his post-mortem until after I already joined an FOSS effort (kauli.org). Which failed. For so many reasons. Neutering us contributors probably being foremost.

Copypasta:

OpenSolaris challenges • That certain critical bits had to remain proprietary made forking the operating system technically difﬁcult... • And that virtually all Solaris implementation knowledge lived within Sunʼs walls made it a practical impossibility • The community had the right to fork, but not the power • This led down the primrose path to open source governance: governing boards, elections, constitutions • And because all development on the system realistically required copyright assignment to Sun, OpenSolaris (sadly) remained a Sun puppet • Worse, some among Sunʼs middle management fancied themselves puppeteers...

The shoe doesn't fit the foot. A year of someone's precious life in exchange for doing drugs or selling their body is cruel and disproportionate. We have to remember that prisons are expensive and dehumanizing, and ex-prisoners in the US become repeat offenders almost as much as they become reformed. It's not a magical cure for society's ills.
I've mostly switched back from shopping online to shopping in local retail. If you're actually stocking shelves, instead of just running a digital flea market, you have to be choosy about what you stock. There's a ton of value in having someone filter out the trash and buy from reliable sources. I'm happy to pay more for that service, and usually I can get the item same-day since I'm already there in the store. For example you may have a local vacuum/appliance shop who has a direct relationship with Dyson and so can buy genuine parts on your behalf, or even have them in stock wholesale.

honest question; as someone who is currently building an audio application which has telemetry, how else would I discover bugs or problems that might be affecting my users, if I can't upload crash reports, etc. ? I mean, I'll do my best to test before releasing, but when a user contacts support, describing some weird behaviour, without telemetry I have zero information to work from, and basically have to resort to "stacktrace or GTFO"... wouldn't it be nice if that stacktrace was anonymously uploaded and I had some idea of how prevalent the issue was, and maybe there's some information in there to help me fix the problem, and make my users happy?

Interestingly, Apple's Ad tracking doesn't show up under 'Settings > Privacy > Tracking' but instead tucked away at the bottom of the 'Settings > Privacy' menu. Apple's tracking also defaults to opt-out instead of the opt-in route taken for other apps.

I am all for providing privacy settings but whats with the double standard?
If it’s on, apps still have to ask. Global opt-in is what it used to be.
All the laptops I have - do have removable batteries (unless you count 2032 cmos ones - that are harder to reach). I have opened all of them, upgraded, repaired (as in mosfets/capacitors), cleaned, etc.

One of the phones has a removable battery(!), still. Pretty much any other device/appliance has a plug or a mechanical switch (or both).
It's that simple?

You might have too narrow a conception of what advertising tries to do. It doesn't necessarily try to induce demand. Instead, it tries to direct demand towards a certain direction.

Everyone knows what Coca-Cola is. But Coke still heavily advertises worldwide. It's not to make people thirsty when they see the ad. It's to make thirsty people think "Huh, a Coke would be quite nice right now" when they're at the store.

They probably just use BRK.B for most HFT involving BRK. The one-way transfer from Class A to B shares (and the different voting rights) reduces the supply of Class A shares due to a myriad of reasons. This makes the daily volume for Class A shares lower than Class B (when normalized by the trade ceiling imposed by Berkshire).
