node.js, as any other native Linux/Windows/Mac application, talks to the OS via a system API. You can emulate that API using WASM, mapping I/O to browser APIs, which is why they mention network is implemented via service workers, for example. File I/O can be mapped to IndexDB... Threads can also be mapped to service workers, I guess... and so on.

emscripten[1] did this a long time ago for C, which is how a bunch of native applications have already been ported to run on the browser.

webcontainers[2] seem to do a similar thing but focused on exposing the browser API to the native apps in a way that integrates well with the JS environment.

I worked on a J2ME app that needed to access location on phones without GPS, I was in touch with the operator and got a list of cell ids with lat, lon.

With that I created a daemon in Symbian that would query the cell id and open up a socket server to give it to the J2ME app.

With that we developed an app to request a taxi service, but none of the taxi companies wanted it. Some of the complaints were:

1. GPRS data plans were too expensive for end users
2. No one would put an expensive Sony Ericsson touch phone on a windshield, the windshield would be broken by thieves to steal it.
3. Looking at a screen on the windshield while driving was never going to be approved by authorities.
The flags seem to be mostly attached to accounts. I've found accounts being systematically shadow-muted whatever the content of their post (and they were "neutral" accounts, i.e. hadn't posted anything one could consider offensive, negative in tone, raunchy, or political in the past).

Also tangentially related annecdote, Twitter recently promoted a clear "send 1 BTC get 2 back" scam impersonating Elon Musk to me. All the while they often ban "neutral" accounts for no clear reason.

This company is the most obvious example of how central moderation doesn't scale to a fluid social network.
Remember, all transactions over $10,000 are suspicious, but transactions under $10,000 are considered "structuring". "All transactions" will be suspect independent of where the threshold is set.
So if I could find someone who was willing to trade shares with me, for other shares, then I could just not have to pay taxes?

Sounds like an awesome financial strategy! Sounds like someone could make a whole bunch of money doing this.

But they aren't. Nobody is doing this. Even though, there would be a huge amount of money to make, from doing it.
The overflow case is not UB. param can be unsigned, of fwrapv may be declared. Or the compiler chooses to declare fwrapv by default. In no case is the compiler allowed to declare the overflow away, unless it knows from before that param can not overflow. The optimization on loop count 16 can still happen with a runtime guard.
I enjoyed it but I also felt that there was too much of a culture gap (or simply my own lack of knowledge of 19th century Russia) for me to fully appreciate everything that was going on.

I heard that server is very consumerish too.
It’s explained in their FAQ:

> Idahoans are very concerned about keeping their state as conservative as possible. They had 2.46 conservative votes per liberal vote in the 2016 presidential election, but eastern Washington only had 1.43.

> Moreover, eastern Washington has a population of 1.6 million in 2017, as compared to Idaho’s population of 1.7 million. Idahoans don’t want to be outvoted by others in their own state, so they’re not likely to want to include such a large population into their own state. If Republican-voting southern Washington state is included, that’s an additional 0.8 million.

> When we created the modern Greater Idaho proposal in 2019, we searched diligently for any possible combination of Washington State counties that would be both as prosperous and as conservative as Idaho. We only find this group of three counties: Columbia, Garfield, and Asotin counties. We are including these counties in our proposal.

It might be worth rethinking your notions of 'long term'.

Typically, there's a kind of time dilation where things that have happened recently seem both historically normal and of a longer duration than they really are.
The even more crazy part is the proposed Jefferson has less than 1/10 the population of West or South California but still has a higher population than both Dakotas, Washington DC, Alaska, Vermont, or Wyoming.

West California would still be one of the most populous states in the union, coming in just behind Ohio in 7th place and South California would be nipping on its heels. Silicon Valley would be ranked near Tennessee. As crazy as this proposal sounds, it's probably less crazy than having almost 40 million people be represented by just 2 senators when Wyoming has the same number of senators for barely half a million people.

Ah, I totally missed that! I'm admittedly a bit tired, and that line was above the first set of boxes, where nothing loaded -- I scrolled down to the "Competing" side. This appears to have been a bug, because when I refreshed the first set of boxes had content in them.

My thoughts exactly. I'm curious if these people thought their NDAs expired after 10 years.
As an left Oregonian I think this would be a win-win. Oregon is an extremely liberal state in the valley but outside of metropolitan areas, obviously not.

Our state legislature is regularly shut down and forced to cater to far right views. Like, these conservative congressman refuse to show up and literally shut it down so nothing gets done. Liberal congresspeople in general not willing to do anything besides chastise them for it. So the whole legislature doesn't get big progressives projects done as much as they might otherwise.

I imagine the biggest impediment to the counties leaving is the centrist portion of our legislature not wanting to give up the bargaining power having right winger congresspeople shut things down.

They want their conservative great state with Idaho, go for it. I sincerely hope Idaho can provide as much needed relief for disaster and public funding for fires and such. We do that now but I have to imagine Idaho has a lot less money.
There were exclusion laws in a fair bit of the Midwest back in the day. I don't know that those states are any more or any less racist than the rest of the US.

There is currently a process of devolution in the world, including Scotland, Catalonia, basically the entire former British empire, former Soviet states, and other places in the world. As areas become more peaceful, quite a few places start the see opportunities for governing themselves, and the benefits of creating the laws which directly impact their lives. Some countries technically have the right of secession codified in their laws [1].

The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, under secession, notes [2]: " As the fear of forcible annexation diminishes and trade barriers fall, smaller states become feasible, and independent statehood looks more feasible for regions within states." They then continue, "Second, in roughly the same time period, the idea that there is a strong case for some form of self-government for groups presently contained within states has gained ground."

Really, the only major benefit of large states is in common military protection; another one would be facilitating economic trade, but that can be taken care of by creating economic zones, like what the EU started as, with sovereign members participating by means of standard treaties. Even military defense could be done by common consent. In Europe, quite a few countries with military ambitions were stopped by coalitions of countries.

If a region has a peaceful and prosperous culture with a defensible geography, then it tends to be more advantageous to self-govern in a small region.

With the unlimited right of secession, the main question is, if someone doesn't _want_ to be part of a country, why should they be _forced_ to be part of that country? You are born into a country, nominally without choice, but that doesn't mean that you should be required to assent to the laws. Of course, most of the time the benefits outweigh the problems, but if they don't, then it is simply coercion to make someone do something that isn't good for them. That's abusive.

"undefined behavior can be ignored" (meaning: the case where this could overflow need not be considered and can be treated as though it does not exist) vs "The implementation doesn't have to take notice of the fact that the behavior is undefined" strikes me as a distinction without a difference given that we land in exactly the same spot: the standard allows us to treat "for (int i=param; i < param + 16; i++)" as if it were guaranteed to loop 16 times in all cases.

> An implementation might define the behavior, but it's still "undefined behavior" as that term is defined by the ISO C standard.

The point where we seem to disagree (and the pedantry here is getting tiresome so I don't know that there's any value in continuing to go back and forth of on it) is that yes, it's undefined behavior by the ISO C standard. BUT, the ISO C standard also defines the allowable interpretations of and responses to undefined behaviour. Those responses don't exist "outside" the standard – they flow directly from it.

So it's simultaneously true that the standard does not define it and that the standard gives us a framework in which to give its undefinedness some treatment and response, even if that response is "launch angband" or, in this case, "act as if it loops 16 times in all cases".

Rod logic will not be faster than electronic computers. According to Drexler's thesis, it's reasonable to expect "that RISC machines implemented with this technology base can achieve clock speeds of ~ 1 GHz, executing instructions at ~ 1000 MIPS."

This is because the speed of sound, which limits how fast mechanical signals can propagate, is much lower than the speed of light.

The main advantages of rod logic is that its compact and power efficient. The aforementioned CPU would consume ~100 nW.

Really the reason why Drexler analyzed rod logic in the first place is that it was easy to analyze and something that his proposed assemblers could plausibly construct, better alternatives for fast computing may exist.

Ask HN: What is the highest number you count to?
When counting in my head I normally jump back to zero after hitting twenty and continue from there. In this way I keep track of the number of twenties I have reached as well as the current number of ones. I guess it could be more accurately said that I use base twenty when counting, although I have never gone past 400 so I'm not sure if I would start a third counter or say twenty-one twenties. What system do you use? (I sometimes count past 400 but that is due to starting at a number other than zero and I generally just apply the starting number as an offset afterwards.)

While you're here, I'd also be interested in hearing the method of visualizing counting you use. So far the people I've asked have all been auditory like me. Imagine having an olfactory basis for counting, what would that be like? Could it be prevalent in animals like dogs and cats whose primary sense is smell?

Also, if when programming you embody (¿roleplay as?) the structure or process you are creating. E.g. Do you think in terms of "These are MY inputs, these are MY outputs" and "All I have access to is X and Y, how can I use these to map to Z" or do you have a clear distinction between the thing and yourself?

That last one I've realized messes with the way I talk to people as I often speak as if I was the object of the discussion rather than a person in the room joining in a discussion about said object.

https://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUS47529021 says the server market is about 12 million servers in 2021. I don’t think you can call that “economy of scale”, compared to 200 million iPhones.

(I’m not sure whether that includes servers at large cloud providers, but I don’t think that matters. Unless there’s a huge performance advantage, I don’t see Amazon, Google or Microsoft buying Apple server CPUs)
Interesting to see Grail share this, I'm excited to try it out.

I'm perpetually unsatisfied with bioinformatics workflow software. Snakemake and GNU make remain my favorites so far in terms of developing novel analysis. However, making GNU make into a reusable pipeline always feels like an awful and ugly hack. And GNU make requires a shared file system among nodes, which is problematic on AWS...

This seems to have potential for both recording the steps for reproducible science, but also turning those set of steps into a reusable pipeline easily.
Combining "This road is most dangerous" with "I will take my hands off the steering wheel" is a weird way to get mailed a ticket for reckless driving.
An interesting side use case you might want to consider:

My previous 2 apartments I lived in required paying rent by paper check, delivered to their office, which was very annoying. They didn't take any forms of electronic payment, and mailing a check is a pain for millenials like me who don't usually stock envelopes or stamps. However, they also didn't take checks written by anyone other than the leasee, so that could be something that might need to be negotiated.
It's not clear to me what that means. I suppose you can go all Scarlett O'Hara and Land is the only thing that matters. But there has never in human history been some value store that was guaranteed to maintain value over time through war, technology changes, cultural/demographic/migration shifts, and yes inflation with modern currency instruments.

GP could likely do it next week if he formed a business entity (Corp, LLC, etc.), which could properly take deductions from the first dollar of expense, as (s)he described.

Form the company, fund it with initial capital, then spend on rigs, utilities, & currencies. Your costs are expense-able, profits are taxable, and it all goes on a Schedule C, K, or whatever, depending on your corp type. You can probably take loss-carry-forwards from loss-making years to apply against profitable years,, and you can still likely use the standard personal deduction.

Absolutely check with your accountant and attny for local, state, national rules, this is not advice, just general experience.

I'd also advise using a proper accountant to file your taxes. Accountants put their reputation (and even their liscence) on the line and reduces the chances of audit. I've known several people who got audited, all of them had the IRS write checks to them at the end, but it was a huge pain in the arse, and they all did their own taxes, which seems like kind of a red flag (or extra demerits in their scoring systems) to the IRS.
