It's not so much "off limits", it's about comment quality. Low-information, high-indignation comments are not what we want here.

As topics become more divisive, comments trend sharply in that direction, so it's important to be mindful of what sort of thread your comment is likely to lead to.

That's why we have this guideline: "Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive." (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html)

i disagree, it isn't gobbledygook. it's not necessarily a great analogy but the underlying idea that the analogy is trying to help you remember and communicate is a reasonable and useful one:

> When evaluating past decisions or thinking about making new ones, a useful analogy to use is the flipping of the highest-order bit.

> aim to identify and flip the highest order bit because if you don't, you're not going to be able to make up for it by flipping everything else.

Other ways of trying to remember and communicate a similar idea could the "80 / 20 rule" -- e.g. small subset of effort/population/whatever often contributes disproportionately to some output.

Theory of Constraints / Eli Goldratt's book "The Goal" is another bunch of related concepts. Decide on what your big picture objective is, investigate and analyse the system to discover what the main bottleneck is. Focus on removing that bottleneck.

From what I understand, PIA never acquired the IRC network (which is running on servers owned by other companies, and operated by volunteers without any contract tying them to PIA), but only the name and some activities outside the IRC network.

Interestingly this came as a loss to Washington, where there is already a significant fab owned by TSMC called WaferTech. Their facility is on the WA side of the Portland suburbs.

Many felt WA was in the running because of the talent already there.

This caused concerns that the future of the WaferTech fab facility is dimmer than before, since it probably makes less sense to pump billions more into it in the future.
Yep! It's an e-dsl essentially, since you write a program and it compiles to bitcoin transactions.

Sapio is turing complete (trivially, you can call any program you can write in regular rust from a Sapio contract). However, the output is a static set of transactions, which is not turing complete. However, if you have an updatable "finish!" clause, then Sapio can generate the logic for a "next step if N parties agree" or something similar, which lets you express the continuation logic in Sapio.

For your last question, I think it is semantics. An "interaction" is (by my perhaps non-standard and definitely inconsistent terms) a back and forth communication between two parties. A non-interactively created channel is set up by either party (or a third party) and then the funds cannot move without the signoff of either party. However there's no guarantee that the funds can move, unless the parties receive a transmission from the creator informing them of the setup (think of this kind of like a memory leak in rust?). This isn't really an interaction as it can happen fully asynchronously, but it's sort of weird because if you don't get it you don't get paid... but assuming the person paying you wanted to pay you, they can try to let you know later!

Then, payments (in one direction, i.e. A->B but not B->A) can be done in the same async half-interactive way. You just get the broadcast and save it to get more money.

This might seem really niche (it is) but carving out these little pockets of what constitutes an interaction opens the door for some really interesting types of devices. E.g., imagine a "low power smart meter" that you can open a channel to and pay multiple times, but the smart meter only has a public key on it, no private key. All state (incl block headers) can be SPV checked and stored locally. Requiring a full interaction means that these devices have to have a private key accessible. This is sort of a contrived example, because there are better ways to make the smart meter, but it shows you the edge that exists at least.
Why are you asking this? This seems fairly out of left field.

I see both as incantations that are run in wildly different execution environments, and thus there should be lots of overlap during the creation process. Code is a magic spell that executes in a mostly deterministic digital system. While writing is a magic spell that executes in a very non deterministic biological system.
It's possible to have that remotely! It takes effort and requires intentionality, but you can make it happen.

We do daily 30 minute standups - which we intentionally run inefficiently at this point. It's a great time for watercooler talk, catching up, and generally building rapport that's hard to build at remote companies.

We also do twice weekly hang-out sessions. It takes some time to develop the habit. It's probably not for everyone but it's been incredibly positive for our team.

You guys ever wonder why they don't choose California? These factories have huge environmental impacts that California is not okay with. These factories produce massive amounts of waste that cannot be recycled. This is also very likely to be the same exact reason as to why these talks didn't go so well in Europe.

Arizona like Texas is more business friendly at the expense of not looking out for the well being of people who live in these locations. Ironically, right now by being more business friendly more people want to move to places like Arizona or Texas for jobs.

It's a strange balancing act that has a lot of potential for being over corrected for. Industry brings business and economic growth but ruins the environment and has harms the people living in the area. The insidious thing is environmental costs are paid for much much later.

The consequences of being way to business friendly in these places may only be apparent a decade from now just like how the price of being too business unfriendly is now very apparent in California.
This is unethical research, full stop.

Then your managers would buy a tool that did instead.

If your employer wants a tool into which those workflows can be smushed and wants devs integrated into those flows, that’s what they’ll get.

Yeah, so I think I'm seeing something weird where some software isn't allowing this particular recursive query? I'll dig into it more.

By the way:

> The A record was never in the root zone.

Are you sure of that? I don't have any proof, but my impression was that the DNS registry for ai (which was also just Vince Cate...) was able to ask for it because at one time the root zone was less restrictive in what RRtypes could be placed there for TLDs. But that might just be repeating someone else's mistaken impression.

OK, I went and looked in the Internet Archive

https://web.archive.org/web/20090716164810/http://www.intern...

and this version of the root zone from 2009 does indeed not have an A record for ai, just ordinary NS delegations. So it seems like your explanation is confirmed, and there must be a change in some recursive resolver behavior. (I tried from four different Linux systems on different networks and all refused to resolve it, so there really must be something that's changed more widely, not just my home router.)
Honestly, I know of someone who was involved with the San Bernardino shooting. And the shooter was not the Muslim man that was a co-worker of my friend who was there during the attack. The guy who did it was light skinned (not dark), looked of Caucasian background based on skin, and was more than 1 foot taller than the accused assailant. The media explained a different story.
I don't think EU cuts deals with specific companies. What would TMSC expect here? That EU gave them money straight up? I don't know how this would work, but maybe I am missing something.

If anything, EU would create a generic fund to subsidize any such investment coming from any company interested, but at EU level, it would definitely take time.

Or they can talk to individual countries about subsidies, just like they do with the US. Plenty of them can afford it.

I think there will always be a place for people like you, and you have nothing to worry about. I also think that working from home can be good in some situations but not others even for the same person. I can see myself getting sick of it, and the option of a good office would be nice.

The problem is that "office" in today's world generally means an open office layout designed to waste your time and distract you. If "office" meant an actual office with a door you can close so that you can do focused work, the situation would be different.

Does this person look good in his job if he does a deal with me, or can he look good in his job if he just meets with a bunch of people like me?

Unprepared and standard groceries are the same price online as they are in the store. Delivery fees are waved for 30$ + orders. A smart shopper and meal planner can order once a week and get nutritional and fresh food delivered to their home. A bigger problem in low income areas is people are more likely to eat fast food or higher priced prepared delivery food, because they don’t want, take time or know how to prepare the food.
Thank you for the follow up. I am not trying to push it but I'm failing to understand how I can express my opinions and experience about governments blocking apps and websites. What would make a comment describing what happened in Turkey and asking people to reconsider their support for app and website blocking in the name of claimed greater good a high quality comment?

This is my second time I fail at this. If this is not banned speech or undesired opinion, do you have any tips to improve my comment quality on the issue?
Also, it's the first social platform I've seen that has solved the new user growth problem - every user's first few videos are guaranteed hundreds of views no matter what. So good content naturally rises without having to be spammy/promote itself. Compare that to something like Twitch where growing a stream to even getting 30 regular viewers can take years of grinding and a ton of hustle.

The average follower count for even just a regular user who has maybe 1-2 good videos can be in the low thousands.

Not sure what Play Framework is doing at the top of the list, will most likely be many months before a Scala 3 supported version is released.

Same for Spark, DB libraries, Akka, etc. Basically everything with large dependency graphs that depend on macros or removed Scala 2 features (e.g. abstract type projections, arghhhh) will take significant time to port over to Scala 3.

What has had Scala 3 support from early on in the release cycle are the FP/Typelevel projects, which are obsessively maintained by the I'll-sleep-when-I'm-dead FP crowd.

I did benchmark extensively 4-5 years ago, but I don't have those numbers with me. Tries are quite expensive memory-wise by design, but I found that ART gave the best balance between speed (by exploiting cache locality) and memory. State of art might have improved by now.

As far as Typesense goes though, I found that the actual posting lists, document listings, and other faceting/sorting related indexing data structures is where the bigger overhead is, especially for larger datasets.

I don't think the public's interest is in question here (well, at least not in this particular argument).

I think the point is about how much you trust the person handing out the cookies/vaccine and money. There are plenty of people who trust the government about as much (or less) than a random stranger.

I think there is something with this, and the minor resurgence of interest in C. I think people learn about the issues with memory and threads in C, use some other language and come back to C with better appreciation for what can go wrong and better care to keep things safe. C is the less fancy tool. It gets out of the way as much as VS Code does.

really uninspiring and unworthy website for something like the roden crater. even in the state its in right now, the website feels buggy. from the interface hijacking the scrolling, to the way the videos switch to a still image when you scroll down, it just feels broken, boring, and feels like it was put together in a hurry, and doesn't make me think 'wow i want to see what this is all about.' sad, because it would have been interesting to have seen something captivating that would have complimented james turrell's work.

I don't really like the euphemism of "business friendly" when it means "companies don't have to pay for their externalities."

I don't know if you've ever looked into what goes on physically in the combustion chamber or even just the turbopumps? We are far away from having the physics identified, let alone the math figured out.

E.g., combustion instability is one of those phenomena where an engine explodes, but we don't understand what's going on (sure, sometimes it can be mitigated).

Sounds pretty sciency to me.
