"How much repetitive and empty of creativity most of life tasks are."

The era of rapid technological progress has led to the fetishization of novelty. It is new, therefore it must be much better that what came before. That era has ended somewhere in the late XX century, possibly in the '70s. The technological landscape hasn't changed much since with the notable exception of mobile computing. Time to grow up.

Edit. Something that blows my mind. From 1900 by 1970 (70 years) the world moved from flight being a remote dream to Boeing 747. From 1970 to 2020 (next 50 years), hundreds of 747 are still on active duty, and the successor 777 is merely marginally more efficient.
Like I did in another subthread I’d suggest looking at SolidJS. It’s philosophically similar to React for rendering, uses JSX, and at least as “pure”. It has reactive APIs similar in use to React hooks (neither of which are pure), but compiles to DOM.
Why on earth would you think trying to incentivise developers to release native Linux builds would be a more worthwhile investment than simply improving Proton? Linux desktop probably occupies about 2% of the steam market and that's being generous and assuming that their actual steam hardware surveys are underreporting adoption.

Even assuming wild success on this products part, that would only drive that number up a few percent since I don't see production for these running particularly high.

It might make more sense to encourage developers to provide proton support for anti cheat (like what Valve are actually doing leading up to this device's launch) rather than asking AAA developers to invest additional time on support that is arguably a waste of resources and certainly something of low priority.

Aside from that, my own experiences with Proton are far more positive than yours. I've hardly ever had to tweak things for it to work. Occasionally, I need to use an older proton version for a game but that's hardly a chore.
>overall global forest cover has been increasing for about a century.

Can you cite a source for that claim? WRI's Global Forest Review data across the last 20 years shows annual primary losses between 2 and 6 million hectares with an upwards trend, and overall loss in the last 20 years sitting at 411 million hectares.

https://research.wri.org/gfr/global-forest-review
https://research.wri.org/gfr/forest-extent-indicators/forest...

I also found Yale talking about data and sources being less-than-ideal in quality but both the major studies are in broad agreement about the decline in forest cover globally: https://e360.yale.edu/features/conflicting-data-how-fast-is-...

In terms of the longer view: "The turn of the 20th century is when global forest loss reached the halfway point: half of total forest loss occurred from 8,000BC to 1900; the other half occurred in the last century alone."

I wonder if mental health “maintenance” could solve this. If medical professionals could point out the dysfunction involved in such relationships, people might be more resistant to falling in these patterns.
Ah, I see. The programming model is similar, but the execution of the virtual DOM shifts from runtime to compile time. Cool!
> "should our cities be solarpunk or cyberpunk?"

That's such a frustrating false equivalence, and so is the idea that solarpunk is "punk" because its opposing cyberpunk. Cyberpunk was never aspirational, its a dystopian genre. There is aspirational near-future sci-fi, its just not cyberpunk). Its like asking if we would prefer to live in the post-apocalyptic wasteland from Mad Max or in the future utopia of Star Trek.

Do you know the animator or animators of, say, Frozen? Would you even notice if they switched that to another animator?

Compare this to an actor. People often decide to view or not view a movie based on the actors on it.
The problem with that study is that it's widely cited and powerful; it is apparently responsible for the majority of all attributed positive effect for ivermectin in meta-analyses. The fact that it's author was fraudulent doesn't mitigate that!
It seems deceptive to me to compare using createElement etc. to JSX, rather than using innerHTML, or a <template>.
Why IT Management? What about programming?
Interesting how everyone in this sub-thread has a different preferred term.

I think I prefer "killed himself/herself". I think this doesn't whitewash what it really is. "Took their own life" can theoretically sound kind of romantic and poetic to some people. "[X] killed himself" makes it clear what the implications of the actions and effects are, without adding any sort of moral or legal judgment (e.g. "committing" implying committing a crime).

It's jarring - which a professional news outlet may not want to come across as - but I think it should be.
This is just moving the goal post of your argument.

But the "Hardware lags behind" only makes sense to Sci-fi like expectations of robot agility but the software isn't even remotely close to embody that hardware. Even In the real world robotics applications TODAY this statement falls flat by one simple demonstration:

Use existing arm + teleoperation and conduct X amount of tasks (could be a mobile robot too, or a car for that matter). Now find a software that have same versatility in task execution as the human.

Most softwares for simple robotics manipulation tasks lose out to human operating it directly, bar efficiency maybe, in an static controlled environment even using the same control and perception system. Yet human controlling these arms directly show that the hardware is capable enough to conduct those tasks.

The "hardware lags behind" statement is if anything just a convenient excuse from the software / automation developers in Robotics, (also being one of them myself) shifting the blame to others, or have a sense of false highground.

The need of Lidar on early self driving cars was the same motivation; somehow softwares couldn't just use camera but needed an additional 6th sense, that humans don't even need, and still performed quite bad.
Great poem. You might also like the Donald Fagen song "I.G.Y." - as usual I can't tell if he's being straight or sarcastic, but it's a vision you can hum along with.

This is a toolkit problem, it has nothing to do with wayland or x11. See https://developer.gnome.org/gdk3/stable/gdk3-Windows.html#gd... , gtk just supports integers as an scaling factor.

The mutter setting you are mentioning just enables framebuffer scaling (ie bitmap, http://blog.3v1n0.net/informatica/linux/gnome-fractional-and... ). It will first ask gtk to render at the next integer scale then zoom out the resulting bitmap as necessary. This definitely results in blurriness that I do not see on windows (but you can see on macOS).

Compare Qt which does support true fractional scaling albeit as I was saying this leads to another significant problem https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt.html#HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPol... , but it does often result in a level of sharpness that cannot be matched, and it is trivial to see when you compare gtk with qt programs.
Atleast right now, most anticheat software aren't available for Linux, You need a Windows kernel for them to run.

This can however change as Steam plans to use SteamOS (based on Arch) as their primary OS on the SteamDeck.
Indeed. Here's a recent meta analysis[1] (discussed yesterday on the TWiV clinical update). Money quote: "In comparison to SOC or placebo, IVM did not reduce all-cause mortality, length of stay or viral clearance in RCTs in COVID-19 patients with mostly mild disease. IVM did not have an effect on AEs or severe AEs. IVM is not a viable option to treat COVID-19 patients."

High-power trials are needed to know for sure, but at this point the "true believers" (of which there are many) are operating much more on wishful thinking than solid evidence. It's still possible IVM will show some benefit, but I think at this point we can conclude fairly confidently it's not a silver bullet.

Yep, sounds like a Paradox game.
And only a minority of games do require anticheat.
Ask HN: Are there any good whitelabel reporting solutions for startups?
I'm looking for a good white label reporting solution that I can embed in my web app. I'm thinking back to the days of Crystal Reports or SSRS where you'd have a server running and a nice report writing interface. We have a few data backends (including SQL and Spark), and I'm looking for an easy way to write reports that get surfaced up to our end users, but with all the niceties like PDF generation, good printing support, templates, etc. I know Tableau and Looker have white label solutions, but they're pretty expensive - any good recommendations for a smaller startup?

This seems more like an opportunistic rant about Valve's marketing than a sincere response to the particular situation. The name makes perfect sense given its a slab that plays steam games and if you'd pay attention to the website beyond the background colour (???), you may notice how it has several pictures, animations and videos illustrating the product in far more detail and clarity than many console launches. It worked for me anyway because I studied the site cover to cover so to speak.

Granted, I agree that Valve did a genuinely poor job with the Steam Controller and Steam machines but in the former case, it was because even Valve themselves didn't quite understand what they had just made and in the latter, things were complicated by having to deal with multiple third parties.
You can only make money through courses etc. if the methods aren't already in the culture, and relative to the amount of money you can make selling junk food or health food/vitamins/supplements, the books and courses are a pittance.
Not only are there dummy plugs, but some cards (e.g., Quadro) let you spoof the EDID without one at all.
Yes, QXL can do that and has built-in support in e.g. virt-manager. It's not going to be fast, but it does work, and is how installation of Looking Glass can be bootstrapped without a physical monitor attached.
You're not wrong. An ominous reading of the last line makes me think of the fetus fields from The Matrix.
You can google them. I know many friends who complain about problems with anxiety and appetite. These are quite common.
likewise, using an unnecessarily repetitive style in the "vanilla" version and using a few compact ternaries in the "react" version.

you can get pretty darn close to the react version of this example using vanilla js.
Of course! The takeaway is that in the future it would be nice if you could have the best of both worlds by being able to compile some DOM transformations ahead of time and/or have React observe and JIT them so you can bypass React's machinery most of the time while getting to pretend its there. It will feel like a re-render but it's actually just a direct DOM manipulation behind the scenes. That's Svelte in a nutshell.
As someone who doesn’t live in a western democracy, help me understand why “people of colour”, “wage gap”, “minorities” and all these other keywords need to be shoehorned into so many articles and discussions? It is so tiring to find any kind of articles that report things without getting the author/organisation’s political agenda in the way.

What if we the YouTube viewers (Google's ad targets) give the YouTube creators (Google's source of free labor) our moral and financial support directly, without letting the Google middleman take a cut.

Viewers can opt out of ads personalisation but can uploaders opt out of "monetisation". Morever, can viewers and uploaders opt out of surveillance, data collection and how the collected data is used.
I would say that most resources would be a mixed bag in most situations but much of the advice skips over something very basic that experienced people tend to assume you know: you are always going to be limited by the number of times you can actually sync a write to a disk and/or how fast you can read back from the disk and these are the main upper bounds. One mistake I see inexperienced engineers make in modern environments is not realizing that in their particular cloud instance they are explicitly or implicitly using the cloud vendor's network storage and they are entirely hamstrung on that. The other is not configuring the database to use all the RAM- but those are usually covered by the existing tuning guides.

The next from a design perspective is to leave natural places to shard/split the data up so you could represent the data consistently on multiple systems. Sometimes it's pretty bonehead things like your database tables related to login are affecting your critical path transactions and/or also tied to the referential integrity of your application data in ways that are hard to split apart. It goes back to the IO thing where if you are reading and writing login or UI traffic you sure as heck are not writing some other critical time sensitive transaction especially if it's to the same disk. The other obvious thing is to be trying to run analytic queries (aka look at many records) on a database tuned for mass INSERT/write traffic and having no plan to do that with a different resource.

If you are still worried about it I would suggest just prototyping it using a currently modern API/RPC server in front of whatever datastore you come up with. As systems have gotten more distributed the straight line speed of connecting to the database directly makes less and less sense in my opinion and having an API server you control allows you to be clever later in ways that might not be obvious today (especially keeping application-aware counters so that you can see what your application is actually doing as query-style logs for databases are extremely expensive in performance). Either way if you sit down and consider the performance characteristics of the underlying system, think about each class of transactions are you considering from your application in a write/read context (hopefully from measured data), and using tools like EXPLAIN you'll quickly start finding what pieces of the puzzle might need to move to start scaling.

The answer also might just be some parts of your application would be better served something other than a database like a message queue, a more straightforward ISAM or key-value store, or depending on your situation just flat files written onto the fastest local storage you can get to then be later transformed and loaded into a database sometime later.
> If the program was coded to produce subjective feeling

How would such a program work? What would it do in order to produce subjective feelings?

You do understand that you can not just write a program to do some arbitrary X if that's not within the capabilities of the hardware it's running on.

For example, you cannot write a program that would make the laptop fly. You need something that's physically capable of flying that can also be controlled by software. Like a drone or something.
Grafana is good, completely accelerated my Apps. Although ouh you could white label why? I let my clients know what there using and why, this also lessens the support burden too.

I guess you'd be better off with dedicated coin (blockchain) to avoid transaction fees for every question, answer, but you could still gain tokens & transfer between chains.

but to be honest I'd rather see git with crypto than a forum with crypto. get rewarded for your code. maybe only for running API versions of it.
The question everyone is wondering: is this ready for serious use for gaming and productivity (Eg, photoshop or game development)? Or is it very hard to get a smooth workflow going? If the workflow is not great, is there a clear path to solving that?
Could you share the potential and actual harm?
yes you can, (Atleast if you can handle the extra CPU and Disk I/O). I think you should checkout winapps [1] which RDP's into the vm to give you a pretty seamless experiance.

P.S. Disk I/O can be a severe bottleneck on HDDs, so try this with a SSD.

A single neural network with 8 bit weights and 1M parameters has 256^1000000 possibilities by that logic, but we can train it fine with simple evolutionary algorithms like SPSA

One of the remarkable results is that convergence rate for each parameter is not strongly dependent on the number of parameters.
Rebekah Neumann roped in WeWork staff to lobby phone companies to remove a 5G cellular antenna across from their Gramercy Park home.
Rebekah was scared of a 5G cellular antenna next to their apartment — afraid that electromagnetism from it could cause cancer.
First, WeWork’s CFO Artie Minson, who had previously worked at Time Warner Cable, was asked to persuade Verizon or Sprint to find a new home for the antenna — despite him busily preparing WeWork for an IPO. Minson didn’t get far, so others in the organization were roped in.
Finally, it landed with Maria Comella, WeWork’s top public affairs and policy executive. She had been chief of staff to Gov. Cuomo and an aide to Chris Christie. But in the spring of 2018, she was tasked with calling up phone companies and pleading for her boss and his wife: Please move this antenna.
“We understand that the Neumanns got to a point where they found a way to buy out the cell carrier’s lease and would have been able to have it taken down,” co-author Eliot Brown told The Post. “But that happened right as things were imploding [at WeWork]. To the best of our knowledge, it did not come down.”

This stood out to me. Then I thought about why of all the anecdotes in the article, this would be the most interesting. It seems that stories about corruption have become mundane through repetition, but stupidity still retains its freshness.

Fair enough. I didn't check it out until after reading your comment.
Actually from the same developer. This project is actually under a different company; it's not clear why.
Ah but isn't that the interesting part. A person that dismisses an idea as a "conspiracy theory" is inclined to dismiss evidence too, no?
I'll do that once websites stop tracking me. I guess that's never.
No, the real reason as I believe it, is because Sony wanted to eliminate a potential door to being able to unlock the console because this is something that was being very actively worked on by geohot and a few others.
Is it a hard guarantee or just a soft goal like in G1, which tries to stay within the target pause milliseconds, but there are many ways it can fail to? Can it handle 100+ GB large heaps?

Even if it is a hard guarantee, then, from the link you posted, it is not even generational, so it will scan the whole heap quite frequently, and that is going to influence average performance quite visibly - you definitely dont want a database system to access all its cached memory once in a while.

Database systems are really all about memory and I/O management. You shouldn't outsource those core features to a universal algorithm, unless you wish to forgo any competitive advantage (at least in performance department). So this pushes the devs into the off-heap manual memory management territory, where dragons live (at least in Java, again - maybe Go is better in that regard). I've been there, and I don't recommend.
Notion dropped block limits for free plan few years ago, so you should be able to use it for free. Though things like API and file upload limits are still there and ask for a personal paid plan.
A few comments here have been along the lines "how can you make good stories without conflicts," which I think is missing what makes something "solarpunk" rather than just "utopian". Obviously, there's a lot of ways you can express this, but I'm going to use the words of the linked manifesto, judiciously edited to focus on how you bring stories out of it:

What does a sustainable civilization look like, and how can we get there? Solarpunk is concerned with the struggles en route to a better world. The "punk" in solarpunk is about rebellion, counterculture, post-capitalism, decolonialism, and enthusiasm. It is about going in a different direction than the mainstream, which is increasingly going in a scary direction. [The solarpunk] future must involve repurposing and creating new things from what we already have.

A solarpunk story isn't about how nice utopia is once it's achieved. If anything, what makes it punk is the recognition that if you want utopia, you are going to have to fight like hell to get as close as possible, that a "true" utopia is by definition impossible, and that "as close to utopia as we can get" isn't a finish line you get to cross over and bask in for eternity. Staying there is going to take work. And the solarpunk idea of utopia even as described in my little snippet -- let alone the whole linked manifesto -- is certainly not universally shared. There will be people who will fight, very hard, to keep that particular vision of utopia from happening.

And that, you can definitely build a story around.

The people who are being presented with rage inducing topics that they feel their circle of friends are fighting agaisnt from personalization of their feed from a mix of old and new content is likely to say they enjoy Facebook over the old feed where a friend of a friend from high school is posting baby pictures again and people are actually just living normal lives not being shaped by a desire for clout.
