Yes, but I don't think it's right to entirely ignore the point. Why are Mississipi and Alabama so high in the federal defense spending budget? [1] Each are spending more than $3k per capita, compared to the US average of $1772.

I guess we can disagree on which states benefit most from the program, but we shouldn't ignore the fact that essentially it is a program that is used to bribe senators and representatives through job spending. It doesn't have a lot to do with what is actually strategically sensible.

> "But there’s nothing moderate, or convivial, about the way many Americans drink today."

Today? Are Americans (and Canadians) actually drinking more than they used to? Seems to me there was much heavier drinking in the 70s and 80s and the stats seem to back it up.
Onivim 2 is getting there. Version 0.5.5 was released two months ago, 0.6 would be worth taking a look at https://v2.onivim.io/#timeline

It's a main contender for me to replace VSCode, whereas this one doesn't look that enticing. I want a terminal in my editor, not an editor in my terminal, had enough of that.
Sure, most of your examples are a century old. The new America all legislation happens through the courts, like with gay marriage. We have collectively decided that gridlock is preferable to working with the other team in all cases.
I wasn't suggesting that people eat hay. We could use the same land to grow edible plants and vegetables instead, right?
there's no reason for a cross-compiler to be slower than a native compiler.

if your compiler binary is compiled for architecture A and emits code for an architecture B, it's going to perform the same as a compiler compiled for an architecture A and emitting code for the same architecture A.
I'm in a similar position, and lately I've been having flavored sparkling waters (Mmm Orange Bubly) and herbal (i.e. non-caffeinated) teas, depending if I want hot or cold. Obviously they don't taste like beer, but what I found was at least for me after doing it a while, it's not really the taste I wanted; that was just the association I had with the ritual I enjoyed of a nightcap, and now I'm happy with my new ones.
The FAQ made me chuckle, and then wonder what exactly a post-modern editor would look like? I guess if we deconstruct text editing, there would probably be one window filled with nothing but all the (non-uniquified) letters and characters you used, another with format rules, and another with a verbal description of your program...? Maybe? I'm no Derrida, so I'll defer to the philosophy majors.
I would argue that benefits have also come from moralizing about certain practices. Consider smoking cigarettes, for instance, which has seen dramatic decreases in use over several decades in the US [1]. I suspect that the large amount of moralizing in schools, on TV and in movies, and other places had something to do with this given that it's still more common (perhaps because it's less taboo and still seen as "cool") in certain European countries [2], not to mention many other places around the world that weren't significantly different from the US some decades ago. This has public health benefits that everyone at least indirectly benefits from, without mentioning the more direct issues such as second-hand smoke or, in the case of alcohol, drunk driving or other crimes exacerbated by its use.

I think Americans just aren't used to saying we're out to socialize. It's what's happening, but we're bad at it and we're not used to being explicit about it.

As a member of this target demographic, I would say that catering to American drinkers would be to provide a pretext to be at your establishment. You don't have to actually provide all that much, but if you provide a reason for being there that isn't, "Socialize with others" I bet you'd attract more Americans. In America we do "brewery tours" for example, but it doesn't even have to be related to alcohol itself ("good" music, board games, axe throwing, bumper cars, pub quiz, karaoke, etc.). What matters is that you're plausibly not there to "socialize", even though that's actually why you're there.
Man, I have huge DisplayPort issues when using my Dell 7750 with an external monitor. It can take a couple of reboots before it'll send a signal to it. The OS can see the monitor, but it just won't use it. It's incredibly annoying.
Because the usual people making "small government" arguments are insincere about them.

Personally, I'd be happy to massively decrease the size of the US military. What prevents that is that neither party wants to abandon the vast scope of uses that such a huge military lends itself to.

Hi,

just the other day I was wondering what happened to older Javascript frameworks like Backbone.

Can you elaborate why you moved from Backbone to React / Redux? As of what I recall, Backbone was extremely stable and a lot of companies used it in very heavy web apps as well.

Since, the 2D board games of the type on your site doesn't seem to require heavy front-end lifting (I might be completely wrong here), I'm curious to know the reason behind switching to a newer technology which is still riding the hype wave.

Thanks. And of course, the site is very nice. Will be sharing it with my colleagues for our Friday online hangouts!
Why would I pay you anything? You're still here attempting to defend yourself. Free of charge.
I'm just curious how you started following Hacker News?
Within your argument, what's the justification for assuming low variance?
I will happily argue there is pretty strong historical evidence our models are correct. In my amateur trip through philosophy from Plato to Wittgenstein I've seen a lot of acknowledgements by the intelligencia of a generation as to what is presumed, convenient, or constructed fact and what is actual fact. Paradigm shifts in thinking have gotten repeatedly smaller over the written record, and would hardly be considered a paradigm shift by previous generations.
I advise you to spend some time on /r/cpp.

Then you'll see where people are wondering.

Want to use modules on clang? Wait at least another year more.

No wonder that Red-Hat is hiring for clang devs, alongside the contributions they already do for GCC.
> Doesn't Israel buy most of those solutions from the US?

No, the Iron Dome was developed by Israel. US funding only came at the end of development, during production.

> Also, the rockets coming out of Palestine are a lot different than what would be lobbed at the US.

People always forget about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David%27s_Sling and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_(Israeli_missile)
the numbers on this site don't make sense. I went and checked the CA data and the number is much smaller.

> Yeah you're correct what i had in mind as more like dynamically loading new articles, for example for a webchat.

Oh, you mean chunked transfer encoding? Yeah, we've got that too.

> I think it's more like hostile actors

The hostile actors had to get the ideas from somewhere.
(just tried to post the same here)

This feels very fin-de-siecle. Paypal mafia has had its fingers in so many lies but it always was ... paypal is the market trader, shouting his wares across the street but you are just never very sure it has gravitas. But it succeeded based on sheer chutzpah and that anyone could succeed from their bedroom.

I think that has gone
exactly what happened to me last job place. I was told very precisely what I'd be working on and actually I based my decision heavily on that. it was some software driver. first day "actually we need you to do something else". I get around low level, os internals stuff, but I'm no electrical engineer to say the least. ended up looking at pcb schematics, debugging hardware and I have while this and drivers go hand in hand, they are radically different worlds.
"fine, I'm gonna learn new stuff" thinking too myself. aside from playing with arduino I've never touched hardware and I have no professional interest whatsoever (my interest there ends in watching YouTube videos) and I found it extremely boring and terrible use of my time. things I had to learn could easily be solved by hiring a real electrical engineer. aside from that, it was terrible management and incredibly unsocial, quit after 6 months and apparently the manager quit shortly after because he got another offer... figures.
Mid-Atlantic Accent
Then don't use the GC? Ignoring that a lot of C++ developers are practically incompetent and completely unable to separate their ideology from the actual requirements of their software (I note that not one single even anecdote has been mentioned regarding the GC in this thread), D gives you the tools to do that already. I work argue not as polished as C++, but that really doesn't matter if you set out to write a new project.

Also, if you think existing D users are going to replace D with Go I don't know what to say to you. Go and Rust are literally punchlines without a need for a joke in discussions I've had with many senior people at these companies (Mostly Go). The reasons why people use D are so utterly detached from everything that has been discussed in this thread that I don't know what to say to you. Go is a bad programming language, pure and simple, good ecosystem, awful language.
I'm confused, why isn't a security team a good way to make and enforce things like smaller attack surfaces and network isolation?
How are bitters with plain seltzer? I have a sodastream and am looking for some good flavors. Can't figure out anything that tastes as good as flavored bubly or lacroix and that doesn't have lots of sugar.
I knew people like that in our mutual early 20s a few years have gone by and now nope. I may drink once every other month or so on out D&D night. Much of that was because my mutual friend group were all from a background of strictly religious upbringings where alcohol was not considered acceptable so no one had a model of responsible drinking. all of us having gained independence around then I was the only one not getting hammered every weekend. (mostly because i don't like beer). but we have all aged and become more responsible and realized throwing up sucks.
What do you think about using vim emulation in VSCode?

For me it seems impossible to be productive without the ecosystem of extensions VSCode provides.

I am intrigued by the power of modal editing, but going all-in vim seems a step back with regard do "modern" development workflows.

In vim it appears you have to configure every piece of it from scratch, while in VSCode if you pick a new language it's usually enough to install an extension and you're good to go.
On a planet with seven and a half billion people becoming more connected and tech-savy everyday, security by intimidation simply isn't a viable solution, or a meaningful component of a larger solution.
It's missing paid holidays which are probably 8-10 per year so almost $4k more employee benefit.

Two weeks of vacation is kind of minimal. I'd figure at least three.

Health insurance varies a lot. For me it's a whole family and my last salaried job paid our deductible if we used it so it was easily a $20k benefit for us over being self-employed.

My rule of thumb has been that I need about 70% more as self-employed to be at the equivalent pay.

On the other hand, I've made a ton of extra over salaried employees during 60+ hour week crunch times.
Nuclear weapons aren’t ships. It’s a categorical difference that matters a lot.

You can double check if you want but pretty sure U.S./E.U. adversaries like China and Russia already do flybys and have ships sail close via international waters. It’s good for a quick media hit in western countries but nobody who is serious or matters really cares about it. The U.S. does this all the time - called freedom of navigation exercises. The Chinese or Iranians will saber rattle a bit for no good reason other than strengthening their crappy, despotic regimes, but nothing comes of it.

Re China: I think you’re wrong, largely. First, China as a whole should be wealthier. It has 4x the population. It should have 2x-3x the GDP of the U.S. yet it doesn’t. Interesting.

Second, building empty skyscrapers is a hallmark of collapsing nation states of planned economies. It’s motion for the sake of motion. It’s like a broken window fallacy.

The U.S. has some very interesting advantages and certainly doesn’t need nuclear weapons to win “the war”. It’s winning it right now as China faces a population catastrophe and the U.S. continues chugging along like always.

Again, Chyna (Trumps terms) fear is overrated. Not sure what people/Trumpists are so worried about.

> Why spend a lot more on ships now when everything points to you being both richer, more technologically advanced and with better industrial capacity in 30 years than the US?

Not sure any projections are really convincing here. And the U.S. isn’t even trying as a unified country and is spending massive amounts of money wastefully (Iraq/Afghanistan, etc.).
Why don't the larger aliens simply eat the smaller aliens?
I don't want WFH to become permanent for everyone, I want it to be a choice. A lot of people around this forum seem overly about WFH and it being permanent which often means it becomes a thing everyone has to deal with. I'd prefer it being a well balanced choice or go back to how it was.

So yes, if things return to how they were before you're right my issues will be resolved.

I was speaking more of the former, through the restless pursuit of a perfect experience, feeling that contentment is akin to (temporary) settling. My setup is using one of those cheap plastic Melitta pour-overs with the paper liners, which has provided me the most consistent, cost-effective, easy-to-use methods of getting the flavor I like.

It's not unique to the US, but the US shares a culture with the UK in this regard. It's not similar to other countries I've been to (or lived in). In Greece, for example, it's not uncommon to see teenagers being served/sold alcohol, just because it's not a big deal. People go out, they have a drink or two, and they go home.

In the US and the UK, if you aren't drunk when you get home, it wasn't a good night. Nobody here "pregames", simply because getting drunk is mostly something to be avoided.
To go another layer deeper in analysis though, it is still >20% faster on the thermally throttled M1 MacBook Air. That's a laptop without a fan, and it's still faster than an i9 with a fan.
What a New Theory of Attention Says About Consciousness (2019)
In the year President Andrés Manuel López won, 113 politicians and 43 candidates running for office were assassinated. That was about 2/3rds of all of the presidential candidates.

This year, 34 Mexican presidential candidates have been murdered so far.

Most people want to get rid of the cartels and every year, people try, but all of the Mexican presidential candidates that want to, get murdered by a Mexican cartel.
TL;DR: Changes KVM on ARM to run a tiny verifiable codebase in EL2 (derived from the original KVM code?), and run the rest of the kernel in EL1, then uses standard formal verification techniques on that tiny EL2 component. In a sense, it changes KVM into a Type 1 hypervisor in order to reduce the verification needed to a manageable level.

Neat, reminds me of rtlinux, using a Linux module to boot a microkernel with a reduced TCB and more useful semantics in some cases than a full Linux kernel.
Apple has become the most valuable company in the world because they own everyone's computers so anyone that wants to publish commercial software has to bend over for them.

They're not valuable because of any service they provide.
No, it's not true. Just a common misconception because people believe it's some sort of emulation.
These aren't so obvious facts, and we DO write articles and run campaigns about the harms of junk food and overeating.

None of this is "moralizing", its simply reiterating the harmful effects of behaviors so others can make balanced decisions. Nobody is born aware of the dangers of junk food and alcohol, and they're easy to forget too unless one has personal experience with it (by then the damage is already done).
And higher prices. I'm all for the smaller distributed suppliers, but let's remember that scale makes things cheaper/easier and there's a reason companies join up. Your local delivery organised between a few farms will be beaten on price by JBS.
> I believe the Iron Dome was funded by the US

Production was funded by the US, but Development was not, it was entirely in-house.
Yep. This is also why people suck at OOP, because most "good" OOP isn't a series of instructions - it's an abstraction layer - e.g. "ask, don't tell". Lots and lots of "OOP" ends up bad and telling and digging into internals with train.wrecks.like.this.

Really, most people would probably be more at home coding in something like a safer version of C.
Most computer folks are actually unaware that physicists were doing fourier transforms using optics long before the FFT existed. You can do physical convolutions using lenses.

Again, the modern view on alcohol tolerance is that people develop masking abilities. Their BAC and physiological effects remain relatively constant from [1]:

> Functional tolerance refers to a phenomenon where a person can ingest significant amounts of alcohol – either at once or slowly over time – and not appear to be intoxicated. A person who has developed a functional tolerance to alcohol may be under the influence of alcohol without it being noticeable, thus allowing them to participate in certain daily activities in a manner that appears normal to others.

This is also what TIPS, the training given to bartenders, teaches [2]. Finally, to the point about spreading out the drinks. Yes, this is how people consume large amounts of alcohol daily. I maintain that someone who barely drinks or never drinks will be incapable of doing their job after 4 hours, even after spreading out the drinks. They certainly shouldn't drive a vehicle.

> It is easier if they own all the code, but it isn't required.

It's not that simple. For joint works any single author can grant rights to the entire work. Do you know what the caselaw is regarding joint works as applied to typical FOSS projects? I don't. But I suspect it's less than crystal clear (see, e.g., https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2999185) and therefore creates significant risk when attempting enforcement. Litigation is costly, and a wrinkle like this could potentially be exploited by an infringer to drag out an enforcement case for many years.
