The government is in a pretty strong position of leverage against US citizens. They don’t need any kind of crypto-breaking technology to control Bitcoin and they never will. They just ask you if you have it and if you sold it, and you tell the truth to them or perjure yourself and go to jail until you give up your super uncrackable TSM crypto wallet keys.
If I understand correctly, coordinated omission handling only matters if the benchmark is done with a fixed rate RPS right? In this case, it looks like a closed model benchmark where a fixed number of client threads just go as fast as they can.

edit: Oh, perhaps wrk2 still relies on the timer even when not specifying a fixed rate RPS.

That is an area I am curious about as well, especially if you throw io_uring into the mix. I think most kernel bypass solutions get some of their gains by just forcing you to use the same strategies covered in the perfect locality section. It doesn't all just come from the "bypass" part.

Even if isn't quite as fast as DPDK and co, it might be close enough for some people to start opting to stick with the tried and true kernel stack instead of the more exotic alternatives.

I don’t think they were total idiots, at least not from the angle you’re pointing out. The CDC knew masks were effective, but they wanted to make sure masks were reserved for healthcare workers. Remember at the time nurses were given a single mask to use for multiple days, and many hospitals had drives to collect donated masks. The CDC lied to prevent the general public from making the situation worse. Was it worth the long-term loss of credibility? It’s easy to say no, but we’ll never know the counterfactual. For all we know some other issue would have become as politicized as masks were.

To me, this was a glaring reminder that public health deals with more than cold hard science. It’s about ensuring public health first and foremost, given the realities on the ground. See harm reduction as another example. Again, I’m not sure they made the right call here. But it wasn’t due to ignorance.

> In the major urban areas I've lived, every cab drive would start with "take this street to that street" or "head towards major landmark."

> Even in cities with decent grids you couldn't trust a cabbie to take the fastest route.

I heard these stories and would direct cabs the same way, until I realized that the cab drivers were right and I was wrong, and that the depictions of them as shady thieves who would purposely take you out of your way, or were horribly incompetent, were urban myths.

And I was being disrespectful to the drivers, to presume that and treat them that way. I don't treat other service industry people that way. And if you think about it, cab drives make more from a flag drop than a longer trip - as one cab driver said, 'people say these things to me - do you know how much I make for an extra few blocks? 50 cents? And what is my take of that?'

I learned to trust and respect the cab driver, who after all were human beings, and drove around all day long, and like most people was honest and considerate.

>"The IRS investment plan also would replace the Treasury's 1960s-era computer architecture with new machine-learning-capable systems that will be better able to detect suspect tax returns. IRS is the only federal agency with computers that run on the antiquated Common Business-Oriented Language (COBOL) system, Treasury said."

This is a dumb statement, they're referring to zSeries that derives from System 360. This architecture is has been running fine for decades. This isn't to say the zSeries isn't up-to-date, go check the latest HotChips conference to see what's coming down the pipe.

There's nothing wrong with COBOL either its been running for decades doing boring but essential things like payroll and taxes.

Depends on details but +most+ "subscriptions" sadly increasingly mean you can't use any version whatsoever once you stop paying for it.

I'd call it purchase plus support period but it may be the enterprise IT geezer in me :->
I think this implies that after 3 year, you can keep using whatever is the last version you were using. It's basically license to get what you have right + any versions in the next 3 year.

JetBrains also has a similar license for yearly subscriptions, where you can keep using whatever version was supported at the end of the license.
No, with a subscription you lose access after 3 years.

This is purchasing (not subscription), but that includes 3 years of upgrades too.
Do you need any? Do you really think people struggle at going between CNN, Foxnews, and MSNBC?

Ok, things get harder when we talk about shopping carts, logins, and other details, but even there not all good flows have to look the same in literally every way in order to be usable.
Subscription models like Office365, Creative Cloud, etc., lock you out of the software version you’re already using when the subscription expires. In this approach, you can continue to use that version just fine. (And even still upgrade, if you’re yet not on the newest version your license extends to.)
DOS SMB Client Performance
A lot of subscription models would lock you out after expiry, plus obviously the terms are usually much shorter.
Not really since you don’t lose access to prior versions. It’s more like buying the old Photoshop CDs but then getting three years of updates with that purchase.
>Compare your example to an area where people really take masking serious, such as Hong Kong, and then maybe you'll have a valid comparison.

It's not fair to compare the US/Canada with East Asian countries like Hong Kong because the biggest contributor to covid fatality rates apart from population age is obesity rates, which are way lower in East Asia.
Less inclined, or with less incentive, and fewer opportunities? Whereas English is omnipresent. Finding good teachers is always tough in a monolingual environment. I'm reminded of visiting China in the 2000s, many Chinese languages, rarely foreign languages, but a hunger to learn English from native speakers.
Not really. Subscription means that the thing stops working once you stop paying. This is a purchase with included maintenance subscription, a bit different (and much better).
Of course the media is. They’re in cahoots with the political apparatus to massage public opinion in the direction of more police intervention.

I’d argue it’s not even a conspiracy. They don’t hide it. The public just doesn’t think of it that way.

There’s nothing going on in Portland you can’t find in large cities across the country. 52 homicides in Portland last year. 700+ in Chicago.

But we’re used to hearing about it in Chicago.

The media’s job is to attract viewers. They’ll waste no opportunity to dramatize what is, unfortunately, routine human tragedy to that end.

The US government spent tons of money on propaganda programs during the World Wars and it all made its way to university advertising, journalism, and marketing programs.

I’m not going all deep state since it’s public record. And it’s not as if grandstanding to gain public support is new.

I'm a IntelliJ/WebStorm user (I use IntelliJ but for mostly JS/TS/X), what's the level of support for these tools vs VS Code for example?
It has the added benefit that you can continue to use an outdated version.
Does anyone still choose Sublime over VS Code? I wonder what plugins I'd miss from a frontend dev perspective.
I shouldn't start on these but I fail to resist, since you bring one of them on the discussion.

This is one of numerous "faux-amis" that are so tricky for native French speakers. While "fameux" has the meaning an English speaker would expect, "Infâme" means odious. Other examples include "éventuellement" that means possibly (and not surely in the future), "actuellement" which translates as "nowadays" (and not really) etc.

It may be chauvinism, but etymological and geographical clues let be believe that most of these are french words that have been imported into English and whose meanings changed radically. Admittedly, some probably share a common latin origin and were declined into similar words but retaining a different subset of their original meanings.

It is often a source of weird misunderstandings between native French and English speakers, neither of which are famous for their mastery at learning foreign languages...
That's really neat! Is the source of the path generator available anywhere?
Not sure if you're looking to use pfSense, but if you are, and you want to get gigabit for a single TCP connection, choose carefully among the SBC options. See this for more detail:

For me, I've discovered the excellent Supermicro X10SLM+-F motherboard. I've bought them off eBay for as little as $145 with 32 gigs of ECC RAM and a 4-core Xeon E3-1220v3 included. Every one I've grabbed runs flawlessly. That board uses around 25w at idle with the BMC running, and can host more than just a pfSense VM. You still have to supply a case and a high quality PSU (don't skimp here!), but those don't have to break the bank.

(If you want to run your router in a VM and pass the LAN controllers through to it, I can recommend the X10SLM+-LN4F, which adds two more gigabit ports. Pricing should be similar.)

If I had to do this on a tighter budget, I have tried OpenWRT on an Rpi4 and it was definitely workable. Didn't have a few features I was looking for, and I was already running a Supermicro anyway for other workloads, so I went back to using a pfSense VM, but YMMV.

Well, for one, selling stuff at a yard sale isn’t non-taxable. But generally you don’t have to pay tax because you’re selling things for less than you bought them for (you have a personal loss that is non deductible). If you sell it for more than you paid, you have gain that is taxable (but often unreported). But in any event, 1099-K reporting is only from a payment processor - if you accept cash where there is no payment processor involved there wouldn’t be any reporting. But if you sell some stuff on eBay, you might get a 1099 from them or PayPal. Then, you will have to show the proceeds from the sales and your basis, or the IRS matching program may indicate that you have unreported income.

Ask HN: How do I maneuver from data science to software development?
I am a recent graduate w/ a degree in CS. I got decent grades, but was not able to get a job in software development but somehow managed to get one in data science at a major consulting company. Regardless, I have literally zero interest in this. I think one major reason I didn't get accepted for a development job was simply because there were few available jobs at an entry level that I could apply to, and that my projects portion(having no experience) was relatively weak for getting a more senior position, which is to me totally understandable.

My current job title is Software Engineer(though this is just a designation and in reality means very little) so I think I can work here for some time and simply massage my resume a bit on what I did at work, but I do believe there is a clock ticking and if I can't manage to get out of this particular path fast enough I could be pigeon-holed into it permanently. What do I need to do to make myself more attractive for development jobs? Other than working on projects, which I will begin dedicating more time to as I settle into this job.
That sounds like the govenor understands their point of view, not that he is willing to take on the massive legal and political battle that would ensue if this moved forwards.
Totally legit question. I know for Boise "scale pay for the area" already has a wildly different meaning depending on the employer.

I've had employers who hired in Boise for cheaper talent than in SoCal (50-80% the pay,) I've had others who pay the same as Salt Lake City -- closest metro area with data, and another who took the Seattle office averages -40-75k and called it fair. Tech wages here are extremely variable and have little to do with local cost of living.

Nice thing about evolution is that if everyone keeps eating plastic for a few centuries, eventually we'll evolve to digest it properly.

Of course most will die at first. But that's a price evolution is always willing to pay.

This stuff really was straight out of a cartoon:

"Inside was a note ordering them to stuff two freezer bags with money and deposit them in a grit box—a kind of bin filled with sand for de-icing roads—in Britz, a section of Berlin...At 11:07 P.M., though no one had come to the box, the motion detector squealed. When the officers opened the box, they found a gaping hole that fell deep into the sewers below. Funke had built an exact replica of a city grit box and placed it over a manhole cover, then opened the cover to retrieve the package."

Reading the article, I can't help thinking what a different era it's from. The guy extorted money from department stores with bombs for years, engaged in all kinds of Pink Panther shenanigans, and when he was finally caught he got 9 years, a work release, and the career in cartooning he'd always wanted. Nowadays in the US he'd probably be shot dead within a month, or barring that end up locked away for life. There's very little sense of proportionality left in the justice system these days for those who wrong the rich.
Wait, does this mean my license from 2014 isn't going strong anymore?

That didn't really affect a lot of lifestyles. There's some economic evidence it caused people to stay home more (which had the result of reducing covid deaths) but they were already doing that.

IIRC, some extremely core IRS systems are actually written in IBM 360 Assembly. A few years back, there was a project to develop an automated translator to convert that code to Java, but the project failed. The lead engineer was hired on some special authorization to get around government salary limits, but that authorization couldn't be renewed before the project was done.

I don't remember the specifics, but I recall reading there's an actual IBM 7000 series mainframe still in government service. It has some kind of wrapper implemented to allow it to be called by more modern systems.
If I had to guess it’s because the announcement of the new version drives a large amount of traffic to site and they want to entice people with a sale while the new features are still exciting.

I tried VSCode and Sublime each for a month earlier this year.

I was surprised to find myself deciding on Sublime at the end of it.

It came down to performance but also clutter. Sublime is fast. But also, VSCode just had too many panels and bells and whistles.

And VSCode's defaults were just all wrong. Like trying to autocomplete every other word when I'm typing text in a .txt file -- it's not even code! I couldn't believe how many random options I had to hunt down just to make typing usable and not trying to insert a million things.

Typing in Sublime seems to operate... just how I expect it to.
In many of these discussions why do we always refer to government as an abstract "they", why is it never "we or us". I think we've lost a connection between services provided by government for the public good and the means to pay-in for those services. Historically you paid taxes in real value (grains or gold) in exchange for protection, enforcement of property rights, and public goods. We do the same today, but the current state of income taxation seems wildly disconnected from value provided by government. Personal opinion is that LVT, VAT, excise taxes, and taxation in equity is a better way to link equitable distribution of real value to benefits.
