I wonder what kind of computer issue requires them to ground their whole fleet? Can’t the pilots just use Foreflight for the weather?
There isn't a runnable implementation, sorry. I only talk about it casually, at a high level.

If there is interest in this sort of thing I will go back and detail it at a later date. However, I will be including more like this plus code, scripts, makefiles, etc in my "making of the game" book.
I'm a filmmaker and visual effects artist who works with ray tracing rendering a lot, I'd say we're definitely a significant niche! Recently bought myself a new rig so I could render things 10x faster, totally worth it.

Not enough apparently.

But to be fair, as a freshman in a college calculus class that was essentially reviewing what I had already done in high school I was kind of an asshole. I skipped a lot of his classes and often did the formulaic questions in my head and just wrote down the answer.

I don't recommend this approach.
> HIV at 100% eventual fatality

You are simply wrong about that. Even without any treatment at all, you are wrong about that. I'm getting the sense that HIV being the worst possible is some matter of ideology to you, as though you think rabies being worse somehow diminishes the importance of addressing HIV. I suggest you go read the wikipedia page for both of these viruses with an impartial attitude.
I'm sure this is true.

I haven't found 256GB to be much of a limit in editing video, and I do shoot 4K. But I've only really worked with a couple hours of footage at a time, and I'm comfortable with keeping my "b roll" on my NAS. 512GB would probably be a better buy.
I've been a dormant Mac-user for the last two decades. Personally, I wasn't happy about paying more for less performance back then. PCs have had more expansion options and in a pinch, I could also make my PC a Hackintosh build with compatible motherboards.

I think Apple was lucky and well prepared for the moment 2020-2021 came around because Intel kept increasing performance but thermals have also increased. RISC-based processors were dominating at Hz/watt. Apple already had a proven processor in their phones so it made sense to simply add more cores, increase the clock, and add active cooling.

Jump to 2020-2021, PC-builders have had difficulty acquiring GPUs because of the resurgence of cryptocurrency, and supply-chain disruptions. Apple could also easily air-freight MacBooks and Mac Minis from China. Genius! The lure of a computer with single-threaded performance comparable or faster than an i9 all without taking additional space in the home made the purchase of the latest M1's a nobrainer. https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html
It depends, if it needed a comment in the first place it likely was at a different (likely lower) level of abstraction than the rest of the code in that method.
Maybe it's my imagination. But GPS-only location services on Android have progressively gotten worse to the point of utter uselessness today. My G1 could obtain and retain a GPS-only lock nearly as well as my dedicated Magellan GPS handheld. Meanwhile my Moto G4 will try for hours and be unable to obtain even the remotest idea where I am.

The more cynically minded might even suggest Google has purposefully let GPS-only capability degrade as a dark pattern to push users to opt in to SSID-based services.
intelligence agencies have too much power and independence from government. I think this is one of those things that pretty much everyone agrees with regardless of political affiliation, yet nothing gets done about it, and these entities keep growing and growing
Disclaimers have become magical incantations of a litigious, safety-obsessed culture.
I'm glad we did. Vaccines were a home-run solution. In a crisis, what does academic R+D get you on the margin? Better testing for sure, but that wouldn't solve the crisis like vaccines would.

I will say the drug repurposing landscape was an absolute fiasco last year. Every funding opportunity wanted reams of data supporting use in COVID19 which takes time to generate. Yet, somehow on-patent anti-IL-6 drugs were tried again and again and again even in the absence of elevated IL-6.

UK and the NHS really got this right by centralizing repurposing efforts. In the US, there aren't more than ~50 experts in drug repurposing. Why didn't HHS/CDC round them up, lock them in a room, and have to rank-order molecules for proposed basket repurposing trials? We could have saved ~10-100k lives in the US with better drugs for early- and mid-stage disease, but nobody wants to fund a drug that can't generate an ROI. Truly a market, and institutional, failure here.
Well, this is Windows 8 all over again. A start menu that doesn't make any sense. Why did the separate out search from the start menu? Why get rid of the folders? It's gotta be organized somehow. File explorer now has way more whitespace (because touch).

If someone can get the designers to understand that Windows doesn't run primarily on touch devices, that would be great.
There's an option to shift the start button and taskbar buttons back over to the left.
Yeah, Just imagine sending kids to a school in a totally different language.
This generally makes sense to me, but what signifies "significant crimes" besides murder, which is mentioned in the article? I had a friend who was all over the news after being charged with multiple counts of rape and sodomy. He was completely acquitted and the case never went to trial. Still, he'll never clear his name online. That being said, I'm not saying I know what the rules should be.

Next.js isn't a significant part of the run time performance of actual searching – that's fast because of a lot of custom infrastructure, data pre-processing, and client side code.

Next mostly makes it so pulling the site down and loading the page is snappier without us having to try particularly hard to get it that way. It isn't totally effortless - we've got some tailored pieces in our pipeline, but Next "off the shelf" does an excellent job already, and the work they've done makes customizations easy to implement and maintain.

I'm glad to hear you like it! Seriously, it makes it way more interesting knowing people are enjoying it. Every little tweak and improvement to performance is worth it when people are getting something out of it.
Next we'll get to hear that modernizing old software systems is too hard, so they're still running COBOL on a mainframe out of a single DC that had a fiber cut or something.
quite an accomplishment of html cruelty.
Well you probably now have some level of immunity to that particular cold virus. So you're much less likely to have type of cold again. There are dozens of different viruses that can cause common cold symptoms.
The funny thing is, when someone writes really 'clever' code, I need a why more than ever. Why isn't this simpler?
Ask HN: Have an equity letter from a startup that forced me out. Hire a lawyer?
So this is a bit of a complicated situation, but I'll try to summarize.

I worked for a startup in the Sacramento area about 4 years ago. The employers were absolutely awful to their employees. I personally had several workplace violations (unpaid expenses, asked to clock out and work, lack of medical accommodations, etc). During this time, I was forced into working on a social media startup they founded.

I was given a preliminary equity letter in my time there -- but they hadn't setup all the actual legal for dispersing shares. The document clearly states I had 1 year vested in the startup, though.

Fast forward about a year after; I was put on indefinite unpaid suspension -- and I literally had no choice to quit. I was so underpaid, I couldn't even afford a week of no pay.

After quitting; I tried to hire a lawyer to sue for workplace violations; but explicitly did not pursue the equity because I thought the startup part of it had died out (I was one of two engineers; the other who quit shortly after I did).

Today, I found out that the project is still very much alive and has raised over $1 million in crowd sourced fundraising and is seeking another 4 million.

I never received any formal outreach from the company, company legal counsel, or any of the founders. In fact, I was quite intimidated from pursuing even my workplace violation at the time because the CEO and COO both, on separate occasions, called me after my employment ended with them and issued me death threats over the phone -- for which I filed police reports n.

Given that the CEO and COO used intimidation tactics and did not properly reach out any point on my ability to exercise my equity; do I have any leg to stand on in this situation -- or is the fact that this is from around 3 years ago going to have statues bite me in the ass?
That's a fair defense! But once a one-liner like that gets added to the ecosystem it tends to bring snark to the fore.
A system that is wholly dependent upon a third party weather application with no redundancies seems poorly built. I wish we'd get more transparency out of airlines when "computer systems" crash and cause delays. A post-mortem would be nice...
Fun game! It wasn't always immediately obvious where exactly I could play, but I imagine the more you play the more it clicks too.

I also agree with your decision to not use numerical indicators. It would definitely make things too complex and the graphical representation you have is pretty elegant as-is. Optional if at all.
Ramsonware?
The risk isn't the price drop, it's China deciding that it wants to own the bitcoin market one day, seizing control of the hashers, and then doing whatever they want with the network. For instance, refusing to process transactions from American IPs.

Would love to see how BTC's price holds up to a state sponsored hijacking of the network using raw compute power.
For liability reasons, I assume if they can't use their standard systems, they can't fly.

Commercial flight safety is all about standardization, reproducibility, and predictability. Switching the weather source for the pilots violates all three of those principles.
Yeah I agree, but maybe have also non-numbers as an extra option.

very nice game, will pass it around to fellow-go players
As noted by other commenters, google collects and stores your MAC adress, but looks at your SSID to determine if you opted out.

So I assume if you're hiding the SSID then Google will still collect your APs MAC adress.
You take your eye off the ball for 20 or 30 years and look what happens (throws hands in air)

Right, graphql - I'm not sure how I forgot about that. We really disliked this part of Gatsby, but I know some people really like it. I can't criticize it really - it probably comes down to preference.

I guess it's been longer than I thought! Incremental builds wasn't even on the roadmap when we migrated.
i agree that there is a "legibility" issue. the game doesn't communicate the state of unlocked hexes or the rules of how the threshold to lock hexes. It wouldn't necessarily need to be numeric indicator. it could be a visual indicator on a hex to communicate that a hex will lock to a particular colour next turn. For even more usability, the game UI could update these indicators for all hexes when the player hovers over a hex (if you place here, then this is the immediate result you will get..)

42% of the US population has a vitamin D deficiency [0]. In the HN population, that number might even be higher (extrapolating my experience with tech workers and the hours they spend outside).

I would encourage most people here to have their Vitamin D levels checked and take supplements, especially in the winter months.

The cost of including it is nothing, so on the chance it works, there’s only upside. If it doesn’t work, it’s the same as not having it but the cost to include it was nothing, so what reason is there to not include it?

Editing video on the iPad is, it pains me to say, "disruptive".

I believe you when you say it's infuriating to someone with formal training, used to the professional tools. I wouldn't know, this is how I've taught myself to edit video.

It's inferior and the software is cheaper. The hardware isn't necessarily, but it sure is if you own an iPad and don't have a dedicated machine for editing video.

And the experience is steadily improving, and at some point it might well "worse is better" the specialized hardware and expensive software which is the industry standard.

Or it might not. Time alone will tell.

It's worth pointing out that the current iPad Pro also has an M1, so the choice between an MBA and an iPad Pro is much less clear along that dimension.
I had to duck-duck-go it to figure out what it means. After reading the first description I kept thinking on things like Wordpress blogs or Delphi or Excel. Does any of these qualify as low code?
There has been speculation that Google will eventually make its Advanced Protection model, currently optional, mandatory in a future Android version. A consequence of that will be that sideloading will only be possible if you connect to the phone over ADB and install the app from the command line that way. Obviously only a tiny, tiny amount of techies like us will every know how to do that. So, I don't think Google can so easily be held up as an example of user freedom.
It's called Fort's law in the usability research. It is very basic usability principle. Not following it means designers are either idiots, as you learn this on the first university course, or make design for the sake of design.

You're literally 'flagging' (removing) my comment because I am quoting and critiquing the blog of a powerful venture capitalist firm? Seriously dang?
Well, I think not all his observations are correct.

>Patriotic voices are upvoted, positive opinions on China downvoted.

Fanboying of the CCP is usually downvoted. Useful or positive discussions about the country and culture aren't. Americans being overtly patriotic is still often controversial.

>Thinkpads are getting criticism. I was looking to buy a new one the other day and there was hostility in the forums over China.

Sure is surprising that people don't want to buy stuff from a country that is throwing Uighurs in concentration camps, from a company that I recall was caught red handed putting spyware on devices they sold.

Although I think the main reason the comment got flagged is that it isn't a HN style discussion, but looks more like someone from reddit getting lost and posting here
I'm just gonna poke the bear by pointing out that IBM supplied the computers for the holocaust. Just one example of trade...

No one is saying Mao and Stalin were great guys. They're just pointing out that "anyone on the right no matter how terrible" isn't a better choice than "anyone on the left no matter how reasonable". And that's without getting into whether any country should involve itself in other people's elections at all...
Awesome to see it's open source.
You would hope, though, that what is standardized would include redundancy; resiliency has to be a concern at some level.

That’s a personal opinion — I for one appreciate the improved information hierarchy.
Thanks, you're right. I got crossed wires as the GP was discussing youth unemployment in some places, but I see that there was another claim on general unemployment that you were referring to.

For completeness the corrected 2019 stats from my data source would be USA 3.9% and EU 7.6% which is in the range you quoted.

Post-COVID (peri-COVID? 2020) numbers are US 8.3 vs. EU 8.2%, so it has narrowed recently.
There are 4 main types of comments I use:

- javadocs: at the top of the function. Explains what you need to expect from it, very useful when autocompleting (yes, you can go read the code...but that's slow)

- block description: before a bunch of lines. Explains what they do without need to read and understand them all, so you can read them faster.

- line description: at the right of a line of code. Explains the use of a specific variable, the reason you used a function call, etc.

- flow descriptor: the line after an if, an else and other path divisions like while or for. Explains why the code took that path. Useful when you need to understand the context of a specific line.
If a method is part of an API that might be used by developers external to your team, they don’t want to be looking through your code to figure out how to use your methods.
Yeah. 0.19.2 is good, at least for the stuff I need; 0.20 is shaping up to be full of good stuff too (and hopefully won't take as long as the 0.18->0.19 cycle did). On-topic, though, if you're doing threads and gears, it gets slow quickly. It doesn't take very much for me to start needing to switch parts of the design off for the UI to stay usable because recalculations kick in that I know shouldn't be needed, but the dependency tree isn't detailed enough to filter out.

Probably two pretty bad days I can recall. One started early morning on a Sunday due to an unannounced GKE upgrade that lasted until 3am that night (thanks Google). Another was actually due to the polar vortex falling over Houston and knocking out power to some of the primary and secondary cloud provider servers we use to host Kafka.

If you’re talking about minor fires (phone calls for network blips or something similarly minor), then yes 20 seems about right.
> The article suggests major crimes typically receive follow up articles, hopefully including whether a suspect was acquitted.

Maybe AP (and news outlets in general) should make a further commitment to write a "concluding" story about any crimes where they do publish a name, so that there's a news record of the outcome with respect to conviction/acquittal.
Common Lisp has packages and is certainly as suited for REPL-driven work as Emacs Lisp.

I'm not convinced that a lack of at least a flat set of namespaces (like CL) wouldn't be an improvement on Emacs' "prefix everything" approach. Perhaps more important to Emacs Lisp is that everything is open. If you took just something like CL's packages but had every symbol exported by default you'd get something that's not a far cry from Emacs' present approach but with better code organization capabilities.
When runnaroo.com was shut down I was surprised that it was done by single person who managed for some searches to return better results than Google.

Which among other things shows that patents are bad for innovation in new and quickly changing industry. Google came up with their algorithm and heavily patterned it. As an invention it was not ground-breaking, but it matched very well how web worked. This gave them essentially monopoly in search from which they massively profited. At least now those patents expire.

The small board size and easy AI combo was too easy as a starting point. But I started to lose against the Medium AI. The animations are a bit lengthy. I think the ideal numeric indicator would show the number of turns (stone placements) before the space "locks" itself to a particular color.
