As a Brit (though I have travelled and worked a bit in China), I'm constantly dismayed by the thinly-veiled (and sometimes overt) racism, biases, prejudice and ignorance that are on display in just about any HN thread about China - the comments for this article are particularly shocking.

Yes, the Chinese government has done some bad things in it's time, but plainly not everything they do has bad intentions. And bejesus, people in glass houses and all that.

It seems very much like the USA's anti-China propaganda machine is working well - particularly telling since I would have assumed that the average US HN reader was educated.
It's incredible how entitled we think we are to another person's time, attention, and peace of mind just because they had the audacity to be the best at what they do.
Checklists... ill just add that to my own list of useful engineering equipment.. thanks.
I don’t really see this as a controversial statement. All countries are likely to face the issue of shrinking population this century, and they’re going to have to try all sorts of schemes to keep the wagon on the road.

When China faced a population explosion, it didn’t create a complex mix of incentives and marketing to nudge people into having smaller families: it outlawed larger families. It seems reasonable to suggest that is a policy lever they will reach for again in the face of another demographic crisis. What am I missing?
Honest question: if you're a musician, what is the appeal of digital modeling? Is it purely affordability/accessibility, or are you drawn to it because it would create different sonic possibilities that you couldn't get from the original?
why are you saying "we"? The point of the ketamine treatment is because of an interaction in your brain's receptors, at least that's the theory. If its just chemical why is counseling necessary?
How did you feel about Skyfall? I'm not a big Bond (or even action movie) fan and I didn't like Quantum of Solace, but Skyfall is one of my favorite films just on cinematography alone. I certainly don't find it to be just a random action movie (or if it is, I need to find which action movies are that visually stunning!)
I've had success using xid for user-visible IDs. What's nice is they're shorter than UUID, will sort in order, hides the amount of rows in the table.

Yes, it did. See Shattered Sword by Jonathan Parshall and Anthony Tully. (One additional feature often seen in the story is the part where the umpire "resurrects" the two Japanese carriers which were "sunk" in the attack---that part is usually overplayed, since it would be a waste of time to continue the game without the two carriers and there were still questions to be answered.)
MP3 @ 320 kbps is fine. Latency is a different thing. Also it seems like you're dismissing this without knowing anything about the actual latency (or sound quality).
This mean that employers are above state. So why people vote politicians?
Not one of the downvoters, but: this comment misses the point of the article pretty thoroughly. The article is about cultural issues surrounding dementia in Africa, not its prevention.

I'm sure they did (a gentle reminder that we try and avoid snark on HN -- see the guidelines).

This post intrigues me and piques my curiosity -- it's an interesting fork of the Intel x86 family tree that obviously didn't go anywhere. But the context for the submission is also interesting: does it relate to some emulator work that the submitter is doing, for example? Or is there a potential vulnerability that could be exposed by the existence of these instructions? Or was it purely the discovery of this learning that caused them to want to share it? HN doesn't provide an automatic means to share that context with a link submission, which is a pity. But I for one would love to hear more from the poster.
I mentioned more details in a different comment but I think your personal take is quite wrong legally speaking - I do sympathize with where you're coming from but, if you ever find a strange device affixed to you can probably safely destroy it unless there are any clear markings indicating ownership (i.e. a giant blue badge) - and if there are feel free to forcefully return it to the police because you're uncertain if it may have been tampered with.

"tone hounds"? There are many hundreds to many thousands of pedals. Everyone has their own favorites. There is no "right" in this world. There's just as much chance that whatever "error" a modelled pedal may embody is preferred by its users as there is that it will be deemed worse.
The right to repair is also the right to steal, refurbish the stolen good and resell. Maybe that is how Apple squashed the theft market for Apple products, but no-one is afraid on the street anymore of holding their iPhone carelessly.
As it should and I don’t care. Advertisers and data brokers get no sympathy from me. An Apple ad venue allows for some more uniform controls as well, such as tracking revokable consent of a user’s data, even if you found a way to pay the user for their data at some point.
There is no reason why this would run at “MP3 quality”, given that it would be a really bad idea to compress the audio data before running it through an algorithm. I would expect it’s at minimum CD quality, and perhaps better, depending on the fidelity of the A/D and D/A stages and the bandwidth of the algorithm.
That was funny. :D
No, I looked it up and I got this wrong:

You're delusional. We were writing better UIs 25 years ago. It's held us back since then. "Plague" is being nice.

If there aren't great alternatives, blame VCs and greed. Literally almost no one is investing in new approaches.

But that's all irrelevant. The DOM is worse than what preceded it and will, in another 10 years, be found in the dumpster of technologies that were so fundamentally flawed that you have to cherry pick to find something good to say about them.

> The DOM is the only software paradigm that has given users an honest fair shake, basically ever.

You need to research other software paradigms. Your ignorance is staggering. Also, which "users" are you talking about? Because 25 years ago, there were more non-developers writing applications than there are today. Normal people struggle to even update web pages, most of which are simple word processing documents.

You're welcome to your opinion but I'm afraid reality disagrees.
You could just square your quantity before applying the 1.5 factor. Instead of "Our shuttle is safe up to 150% of the required speed!" design for "safe up to 150% of the required kinetic energy (1/2 m v^2)". Then you only need to design up to sqrt(1.5) = 123% of the required speed.

(My point is that the scaling of the importance of quantities is arbitrary so a single safety factor doesn't make sense to be applied to every quantity.)
Content based ads still seem valuable. If I am on Don’s how to fix something pages, then add for something fixing tools seem possible to sell without involving my data
I mean, if you know the adversaries plan, it's pretty easy to come up with something that wrecks it, which is what it sounds like that officer did. What the Japanese didn't know was that the Americans also knew the plan.
This analysis is great. It makes for a great blog post, university lecture or similiar. But unfortunately you can't have these kinds of discussions in an engineering meeting, or other shared context because anything that could be perceived as arguing for less safety will attract opposition because there's tons of people who want the cheap virtue points and ass-covering that goes with being the guy who's always in favor of more safety.
The difference is likely in how hard it was to get the original result, and some unseen limitations in the technology.

Game lighting has always been dozens of tricks and shortcuts to get lighting to look like it behaved properly, without it actually behaving properly. But newer technologies work on getting better at lighting and material behaviour and that allows a level of "overall correctness" that is much easier to achieve.

I've made a similar comment previously, but Raytracing can make a Minecraft world feel like real life, because the lighting is correct even if the world is surreal. PBR was a huge leap for lighting correctness, and it's part of the reason why a game with "okay" textures can still feel just as good as a game with incredible textures. I think our brains can pick up on these lighting cues.

> Dec 7, 1941 is when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Honolulu, Hawai'i, an occupied territory.

With the end objective of occupying themselves, like they occupied so many countries during WWII.

> Note that Japan did not bomb native settlements and cities where civilians and natives lived - only the occupying force.

Yes, because those settlements had no military value, so they focused on targets of military importance. When able, the Japanese had no hesitation about killing or raping local inhabitants of the places they occupied during and before WWII - see Nanking and Korean "Comfort Women".

I'm OK with someone criticizing US conduct in Hawaii in the years leading up to WWII, but let's not pretend that imperial Japan was some kind of benign force for good in the world during the same time period.
Well you did bring it up as an advantage while comparing with other Norwegian cities.

Really the best Oslo has going for it is the job market, which is a function of population size. In other respects it remains as adoringly provincial as other Norwegian cities. Being the largest in Noway is not enough to have a big city vibe. If that's your aspiration you'll be better served by a number of other cities down that list.
> his "solution" is apparently for women to just ignore the sexism, something that places the burden for men's sexism on women. That is also sexist. So again, this looks like a failure to me.

That I can concede.

> If fairness is really what's motivating you, your time is better spent on the many early-career women continually being harmed and pushed out of the sciences, not one old white guy who is already back doing what he wants to.

Agreed. This cuts both ways, though. Attention directed at slandering the guy on Twitter is attention not devoted to actually help discriminated women.
Just commenting about your first point (disproportionate arrests of black people for drugs). I looked at your link. I read it. Did you read it? The end summarizes its own alternative (non-prejudicial) explanation for the gap.

In a post about an article wanting to secure a "universal morality" I would be wary relying on statistical data that has an abundance of plausible explanations, especially when it's meant to be deployed against something on the scale of 'our very moral existence.' If the issue were "tribalism" you would expect minority groups to be persecuted to some extent greater than the non-minority group. But in the US, there are other minority groups besides blacks, and they tend to have a lower incarceration rate than whites. I'm not sure how to square that with "tribalism."
You're a better, more patient human than I.

That's a well-known failure mode of modern professional wargames: they analyze the heck out of the first three days and then hand-wave the rest of the campaign.
polyphonic note detection is largely solved at this point.

But "solved" here means "when not doing the analysis in real time". The realtime solutions are not as good. NN's are not typically great at realtime either, so this may not help very much with this particular goal.

You mean, besides the appeal, what is the appeal? As an artist and a musician, you can have access to close approximations of sounds that would require a warehouse full of amps and dozens of pedals, costing tens of thousands of dollars - all in a Pi project box. That’s not just a little bit of affordability and convenience.
Any word on build/import times? Nanite looks great but I wonder how it'll feel working with these large assets at scale. Although, could be cheaper overall than importing all the LODs and imposters you would normally make.
Why do people forget that uuids were created to solve a real problem: generating ids on remote/distributed systems where a central authority is not available. This makes distributed systems way easier as you can assume any id you generate anywhere is valid immediately. Any article offering alternatives to uuid needs to start with this problem as a prerequisite.
In isolation, this seems like a decent CPU, but I wonder if there is any benefit in using this over using a VexRiscv, which seems to cover the same spectrum as this in terms of performance (from 2 to 5 pipeline stages) and features, yet requires less LUTs?

This one supports the standard RISC-V debug extensions and doesn’t require a custom version of openocd, but is there anything else?
It annoys me beyond belief that every single digital ads HN thread this is the most upvoted hot take and it rarely comes from someone working in buy side let alone ads in general.

Good or bad or neutral, FB's targeting specifically works amazingly well and better than anything else for many buyers. Especially for direct response ads.

If you can't make money selling your product from digital ads, you're not saving dollars you're losing revenue. This is true especially for 'internet only' upstart products, for example everyone who gets stuck in for instance a $60 athletic short ad loop as an example!! Sometimes you hear examples here about a new product or kickstarter who pre-this type of digital would probably not be able to launch or it would be much harder.

Brand advertising is different and targeting can definitely argue doesn't matter as much.

But these changes has already changed how we spend money, and we're tiny in the grand scheme.

The other point that always gets thrown out: It's also incredibly simple to measure effectiveness or lift.

Staying with FB as an example, if you are selling a product it can be as simple as using a unique link for your FB ads. ROI = Purchases with that link / FB spend. FB also has a large set of conversion tracking JS and offline like loading your retail conversions to the platform to match.

But given the new rules FB is now 'modeling' ROAS and it has decreased accuracy for us from something like previously capturing 80-95% of conversions to sometimes less than half. This makes a big difference in auto-optimizing on their end and thus our ROAS.

And again sure, it gets complicated and definitely more snake oil to buy some 3rd party ad tech which claims to model across all your channels online and off. A lot of times that's gamed or just a bunch of BS.

But another way to measure is say you're a larger brand buying TV, digital, OOH etc the works. You can simply control by making only one single change segregated to a control and treatment geo/group before and after, measure delta.
There is, honestly, less of a reason to believe it's false. They may be lying but our legal system relies on us trusting the police to be honest and, ideally, strongly punishes those who abuse that trust.

I'm happy to concede that policing in America has long eroded that trust but it's still a requirement that you obey and openly communicate with anyone identifying themselves as law enforcement.
I think an obvious solution would be to exclude anyone who is incapable of managing the bare minimum level of professionalism that's required in a workplace.

If someone is incapable of managing their feelings in a workplace then maybe they don't belong in one, and their colleagues should not be the ones who are punished for that.

I don't expect you to agree with me here.
> Mmm, I have much the same misgivings about the likes of EDF being allowed to go on spending sprees in other countres - including my own, Britain - when they are mostly owned by the French state.

This was a UK political choice, this could have been manage differently by UK government.

> Perhaps if we'd as a country had a bit more spine and a bit less hesitance to occasionally mangle EU rules to our favour

UK is the country that has mangle EU rules the most.
On the other hand, for the publishers this may be a net win. I’ve always argued that very narrow targeting mostly benefits the advertisers, and the publishers are left with a very small audience that yields a lot, and a very large audience that is difficult to sell.

Of course, this may not be the case for Facebook et al, but it’s definitely the case for a lot of apps and websites that live off advertising. Now, without super narrow targeting, they are suddenly able to sell a lot more inventory.
Your comment just made me wonder if that's part of why the viruses are always worst in winter. Sure, there are likely other factors, like vitamin D, but...

The racist part is the simple unchallenged assertion that Chinese people are so inhuman as to kill their infant children en masse.
There are no organizations in China that oppose the government openly. At least not for long. The Chinese government has roving vans that execute dissidents and harvest their organs right outside their house.

The CCP cares about the environment insofar as it benefits China. They probably do not care about a fish going extinct the way we do.

Long live WordStar and it's many brethren!

I got addicted to it when coding Z80 assembler on CP/M in the late 70's and my life since then has been on a constant lookout for an equally good program in other OS's.

That still isn't true. Fire and forget ranged weapons with heuristic targeting capabilities have also long existed. Heat-seeking missiles are the most obvious example, but target signatures have been more sophisticated than "kill the hottest thing reasonably close to a straight line from initial launch direction" for a while.

The line that has never yet been crossed is the invention of weapons that decide when to launch themselves, at least in ranged indirect fire. Things like CIWS are arguably both autonomous and self-initiate firing.
Japan didn't bomb native settlements because doing so would have been a waste of resources that offered no strategic advantage. It would be like during the revolutionary war if Britain had focused on destroying the (largely neutral) Native Americans settlements instead of the "occupiers".
Taken from the universe of all ideas, a random contrarian idea is usually wrong. Taken from the universe of contrarian ideas pushed by domain experts and backed up by successful experiments, they're usually right. Paul Graham recently wrote an essay on this:

http://paulgraham.com/newideas.html

Ernest King (the red team commander in the second wargame) wasn't a random newbie: he eventually served as Chief of Naval Operations in WW2. And a successful wargame is about as strong evidence as you can get. Amazingly, real-world experience is still often discounted by people in charge, which shows the power that existing paradigms and status-quo bias have on people.

What you are implying is that the wealth of western nations in the present is in a significant way the product of slavery (by whites, of blacks; ignoring the universality in time and space of slavery) which is not the case. In the counterfactual, western nations without slavery, colonialism today would look roughly the same—except, of course, whiter.
Factor of Safety or F.S. for short was something us civil engineers were taught to never forget. You got grades deducted if you solved the problem correctly but forgot to include it in the very last line.

I am bringing up this point that there are tons of miserably tested Java/C++/etc applications because its a problem correlated with their usage, just like runtime type-errors correlate with dynamic languages. A fair comparison mentions both.

Of course a strong type system can drastically reduce the unit test coverage you need. But last time I checked, the strong type systems that allowed for this were all not used in our corporate code bases.

The anti-Chinese racism on this site is fairly evident on anything having to do with China. dang even had to tell people to tone down the rhetoric recently. This is just another case in point. Just because you’re not aware of it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
This was always true for me until recently the Instagram ads (I use Instagram to see what my kids and their friends are up to). Those ads are all very much in the sweet spot of my weaknesses.
