Bulb: Another teeny-tiny interpreted language that runs on Super CHIP-8
I live in Lithuania and they have an electronic ID system which is shared with Estonia and Latvia. You need to use it to access most government websites and utility services, so it's pretty much mandatory unless you want to go to an office and do things in person.

You can sign up directly through the service if you are a permanent resident of either of those countries. Although I was an EU citizen, I was not a citizen of these countries, so to be able to sign up I had to open a bank account - which I don't use, as I already have one in my home country. Opening a bank account was also harder than it should be, if you are a permanent resident you can do it online, but as I was a temporary resident - even though I had a Lithuanian issued ID card and personal code - I had to go to a bank to do it in person.

So is such a system really needed? Not really, but there are many arbitrary barriers in place that make freedom of movement harder than it should be. Systems like this should make it fair, and stop countries from discriminating (purposely or not) against citizens of other EU countries.
This will change very soon depending on the region.

It protects you from negligence, not malice of your conversation partner. There is an obvious design trade-off since people might use this feature in a wrong setting.
Value safety instead of type safety. It's reasonably likely to work; even if you can't trust the UUIDs to be generated by a trustworthy source, when you test the query it'll be wrong even if you accidentally join against a table that has a sufficiently similar schema.

I'm more familiar with MySQL where I don't have anything other than basic, automatically converted types.

But in Postgres, where there's more types, can I create a type that is representationally equivalent to a builtin type but not automatically convertable? So that if I say "select * from donkey left join plant on plant.id = donkey.animal" it says "error: cannot compare PlantId with AnimalId, use an explicit cast if you really want to do this". If this were possible and ergonomic, it would be better than a relatively cryptic null in the case that plants and animals have distinct (UUID) PKs.
13M work, 17.9M live. [0]

However, ~1M goes back every year, so the affected people are more than the ones _currently_ living abroad.

Moreover, there are services that also intra-EU tourists can benefit from:
- buying products >18 y.o. at automatic machines
- simplifying buying drugs at pharmacies (we have EHIC, but it doesn't cover not-urgent care)
- having fast track at airports without having an EU passport (in many countries people have an ID but not a passport)
- easier lookup for police during random checks

Yeah but in reality what happens is that if you redistribute too much, you stifle productivity to the point where you have no improvements at all, and your mean will start to regress. Why? Because you have removed all incentives for people to improve, and rather introduced the perverse incentive of preferring to be on the receiving end.

In reality it's more like
System 1: 100 people with $50k (mean=50k)
System 2: 98 people with $60k and 2 people with $10m (mean=259k)

And then people argue that System 2 is worse because the small increase for the most people is not worth the humiliation of some times seeing a person with 10m which is unfair.
This seems like a valuable resource for IR Codes (500k apparently):

Apple sure don't want to make development on their gear easy do they. I bought a very cheap mac mini a few years ago with the aim of producing an app but despite trying to get something they would support for a while, its now effectively a very pretty brick.

I am now loathe to buy a newer one. Obviously the best thing to do is throw down on a macbook air with an M1 and hope they keep updating it long enough that I can get decent resale for it when I am done with the 20 minutes of xcode I need it for each week.

Android is so much easier.
indeed. just look at any random cat or dog teeth and they're going to be clean but mostly not "pure white".
If you want privacy and anonymity, be careful about how you're generating your UUID. Some flavors of UUID are just the MAC address, process ID, and timestamp, which makes them trivially guessable (and poorly scalable).

Instead of a UUID, just read 16 bytes from /dev/urandom (getentropy() if you've got it). Base85 or Base64 encode the bytes if you need a string.

I felt that having replicated 200k files without failures is an indicator of reliability (not scale).

But you're right, the number is minuscule compared to where we are hoping to be. We're just getting started and I'm hopeful that we will 10x this number in the next few months.
This is a joke, right?

Although I wouldn't be surprised if the prolonged use of the DigID app (i.e. because it keeps crashing, or is offline for maintenance again) would have caused maniacal insanity.

Edit: The app works most of the time, but it is very unstable and not at all user friendly. No QR-code scanning feature but manual code input only, no login confirmation, no active session management or insight, most services allow you to log in with just your username/password and don't require the app at all, etc.
You are right, but as theamk pointed out in another comment, the spec does tell you to "expect no more precision or range than" IEEE754 doubles. So, don't count on arbitrary precision...

In terms of Intel and/or enterprise hardware, the values are reliable. You can cross-check them via IPMI Sensors (provided by BMC itself) or Intel powertop (by crosschecking cpu throttle states). Intel also writes relevant support code (cpufreqd, thermals, etc.) themselves.

The biggest offender in my experience is OrangePi Zero, but I need a thermal probe to verify it.

It’s like you walked into this discussion without reading any of it. That is precisely the issue - less than 10% of the budget goes towards operating Wikipedia, and they’re still begging for money.
That’s a great product by the way. Feels like a Freemium model based on number of unique users could be pretty effective.
I ll be honest here: I litreally did this because i was getting tired of not being able to find a platform where i can be confident that: Yes, from an end to end there is no middleman snooping etc.

I ll publish the code on github too. The idea is that on every startup, system generates a new keys to encrypt data. This site is hosted on a single docker instance and there is no output (logs etc) for now. I dont intend to capture anything at all from this. Litreally. The dictionary lives in memory and there is a background service on the same docker that new(s) the Dictionary every 24 hours.

They came because they were poor. For a fictionalized account of Swedish immigrants, see Moberg's novel "The Emigrants". You might dismiss it as fiction, but the preface writes:

"To ensure the verisimilitude of his story, Moberg did extensive historical research in both Sweden and the United States. He studied county records in Smaland and read many collections of letters that immigrants in America had
sent to relatives in Sweden during the nineteenth Century. His studies also included trips to the Maritime Museum in Gothenburg. This research gave him a record of living conditions in nineteenth-century Sweden and a feel for life
aboard sailing vessels in the days when emigration had not yet become an industry backed by large steamship companies."
Well yes, but guess who annexed it first from Russia? (yes it was Sweden, if you want to talk history)
> Testing software is a tedious task.

I disagree with this premise. Testing your code is a great way to (among other benefits) think about the external interface to your software components, and so can help identify whether you have a quality abstraction or not.

(I don't advocate for TDD, even though I get that it might be a workflow that helps some people. But you don't need TDD to get the benefits of writing your own tests.)

Of course, testing is something you have to get "good at", too...
I don't get it. Why would a messaging app be offline? Do you mean you could send out messages even while you're offline, and the app would wait until it has a connection and send those messages out immediately?
Dream HN: Products I Dream About
So, this is one is easy. In the future (let's say in 50 years) one would be able to buy brand-new old-model products. For example:

- I would be able to buy a brand-new iPod Classic 1st generation from Apple itself (and it will work just fine if I plug it in my MBP 2070, because software compatibility in the year 2070 is awesome).

- I would be able to buy any Nike sneaker model as brand new! It doesn't matter which model, every model since Nike is Nike is available and they are being sold as brand new! No software compatibility is needed in this case, though :)

- Buy any edition of any magazine. Brand new!
Or it could be: „Just get yourself organized“.

I don‘t know how many times I sat in a meeting or worked with somebody and the presenter/user could‘t find the document(s) they wanted to present because of the endless apps and tabs open at once or the endless stream of unorganized files on the desktop or working folders. Same goes for disorganized shared folders (like Sharepoint) or Confluence-spaces without clear organization. Then when information is required the people responsible for the mess start to search in said mess and can‘t find their stuff. And mostly it‘s not because there is no decent search, mostly it‘s because they never wrote down/ saved/ filed the information because they lost track of it or thought they could remember not to close a tab in between 100 others or simply can‘t figure out how to use the search in the first place.
I think that's all there is to see, this post is pointing out the fact that it's been marked as such.

> comp.lang.tcl has been identified as containing spam, malware, or other malicious content.

This type of ban isn't new for comp.lang groups. In 2020 comp.lang.forth and comp.lang.lisp were banned with the same message: https://support.google.com/groups/thread/61391913/some-usene.... The response from a person with a "Gold Product Expert" badge in the support thread was that "since the Usenet newsgroups doesn't have owners there is not any way to appeal the Ban".

Edit: comp.lang.python is banned, too. https://groups.google.com/g/comp.lang.python

comp.lang.python and comp.lang.c are banned also.

I didn't bother looking further.

I guess, this chip comes on time. The other vendors have difficulties with providing enough similar chips on time. If RP2040 is reliably available it will be large success.
This is my conundrum when pondering buying a Threadripper 3970x / 3975x Pro workstation: aren't those chips cooked very aggressively when loaded, even with very good coolers? Doesn't that mean that one day the CPU might just burn?

I really want to buy a proper serious workstation and I can afford it in a few months but I keep wondering: is now the best time for it?

Because they run as separate processes. I frequently just close all my browser windows, which would exit any browser based apps. Electron app are their own thing, and lives outside my browser window. Electron apps also have their own dock icon and exist independently when I tab through my open applications.

That's also why I strongly dislike PWAs, they DO NOT exist independently of my browser. They are very much tied to the browser (well Chrome), which seem illogical, given that they have their own icons/launch thingy and pretend to exist as their own process.

I get that Electron and browser based apps work more or less the same, but I interact with the two types applications in a very different way. That's what I care about, the interaction, the underlying technology is irrelevant.
We have seen a single obnoxious poster who posts long Italian posts ranting about murderers and other criminals. The posts are easily recognised because they are all in capitals with very long titles.

I'm somewhat left wondering what really happens to the high frequency bits? Can they move around a lot like in the style-transfer examples early in the video? It seems a bit like this method assumes the image will not be 'deformed' much overall and will stay basically in the same location (which I think is a bit less interesting than the full style-transfer examples they show at the start to compare tbh).
I hear you and it’s like this with my school alumni too, but I don’t think that the school and university can take too much credit for this, all these boys (and I went to a boys’ school, if that wasn’t clear) were very much like this at 11 or 13, education just refined and channeled them. This is why I find the self-selecting group quite odd, as membership is only one indicator of common ground.

If we assume good faith in that piece of quote, I interpret it as "The system will be ready to start being implemented in member countries in about a year", not "All member countries will have implemented it 100% in about a year".

Seriously? Poor people spend a grand on iPhones.

Besides, have you seen those pictures of immigrants going through Ellis Island clutching their battered suitcases? Do they look like rich people to you?

Yup. Came poor and moved up to middle class.

BTW, I am properly amused by your theory that the US became a superpower via rich people immigrating and transferring their money to the US. That doesn't even pass the sniff test.

> I don't understand how you could question American ability to resupply Hawaii but not Japan's

I'm claiming that if one side has a carrier and the other side doesn't, that will determine who can reliably move convoys across the pacific.

The carriers have such an enormous capacity for reconnaissance, it's hard for me to imagine a convoy sneaking past them. So if Japan has a carrier dedicated to the blockade of Hawaii, it seems to me that Hawaii is effectively cut off.

By contrast, the US would attempt to interdict Japanese supply convoys by using the only tool they'd have left: submarines. Better than nothing, to be sure. But it's much more difficult for a sub to find a convoy, than it is for multiple airplanes.

> we stopped using files to represent information. Figma, Slack, and Notion should save their information to disk. You should be able to open a Notion document, or a Figma design, from your desktop

A good observation, but I think it conflates two different trends:

1. Some software platforms deliberately limit what data is stored on your local machine under your control

2. There's been a shift in UI/UX away from using files as a first-class abstraction

There's a good case to be made that a UI should generally hide the specifics of its data storage. As an example, it's a good thing that most email clients present the user with their emails, rather than with a raw folder of files. (Internally, the email client might make use of a database rather than a directory, so it might make good back-end sense too.) Of course, that's not the same thing as the email client being hostile to data-portability.

iOS strongly commits to this ideal, even at the expense of constraining user actions. The podcast app doesn't let you upload your downloaded podcast episodes to your desktop computer, for instance.

Aside: iOS has very poor support for dealing with files in the usual ways, to the point that you pretty much need to use a third-party app to do so. I've found the freeware Documents app by Readdle to be very good for this.

> this argument is dead and nobody will ever go back to native apps again

I agree that the web as a GUI toolkit is here to stay, but native apps are alive and well too. There's a trend to try to push users off the mobile web and onto native apps (Facebook, Gmail, reddit), rather than the other way round.
It's about priorities. Maintaining and managing millions of cameras is just more important perhaps.

Turns out nicotine is a really good drug! The problem is that cigarettes are a terrible delivery method.

I've started vaping on ocassion almost purely for work reasons: I vape nicotine to focus and CBD to relieve some stress. It's tasty, fun and AFAIK there really isn't enough research against vaping for me to turn away these benefits. As for cigarattes the negatives would definitely outweigh the positivies for me so I'd refrain from smoking but I can emphasize with someone who would think otherwise.

Another benefit is socializing! I'd often work in coworking spaces where cafe and smoke spot is where people socialize - both are basically drug consumption spaces.

Finally I don't feel any addiction to these particular drugs other than it's fun and tasty - I can go days or weeks without it without any problems. I know there's strong research that nicotine withdrawals can affect mood but I've never experienced any myself though seen it in others. Vaping is easy to dose though you can easily avoid withdrawals with a bit of math!
Google used to be the benefactor of the old internet and open source. Then, as soon as we got hooked on those free services, Gizmo turns into a Gremlin that smashes all our old toys so there can be no turning back.
The additional L3 is per chiplet, so you're still going to have to talk to other chiplets and their L3. Latency numbers would be good to see. This is definitely better than eDRAM L4 on the I/O die, and that's still something they could do, so props for that.

The power cost will really determine if we see this in Laptops or not though.
> Video games have made the news multiple times by being associated with violence, gambling addiction, toxic behavior and a few other not very good examples.

Anecdotally, I've noticed a trend in which criticism of video games as causing violence, addiction, laziness etc. has declined to be negligible compared to the rhetoric in the 90s/early 00s, but proponents of video games haven't noticed the shift and continue to feel victimized by the public.

In the UK, 86% of people aged 16-69 have played video games in the last year, 54% play "on most days", and the gender split is 50:50.[1]

The view of 'gamers' as testosterone fueled sweaty teenage boys whose lives will amount to nothing is a ridiculous narrative that only still exists because the 'video game critic' strawman is propped up by people who feel the need to justify their hobby.
