The excuse was that a standard needs to have multiple implementations otherwise we are standardising implementation details and bugs.

Hindsight shows that was entirely correct, as SQLite bugs were then found that could be exploited directly via WebSQL, Firefox of course was not vunerable. (https://hub.packtpub.com/an-sqlite-magellan-rce-vulnerabilit...)

As a sidenote, I worked a lot with the WebSQL API and it was not a very good API in the slightest, immaturity may excuse some of its flaws, and it isnt like Safari did a much better job with IndexedDB, its just a buggy browser and thats where WebSQL was used most, but a large part of the problem is that it was bolting an API that assumed a single threaded client when that is not the reality with web pages where multiple tabs exist
What is a TEM shop? Curious about this topic, the threat model for some chips in the secure payments space assumes a secret value much higher than $10k for something like a root encryption key that blows open the payment processing security of multiple cards.

Also, just because something is physically possible, doesn't mean that the barriers to doing so are irrelevant. If it costs you $10k to unbrick a locked & stolen iPhone, then those countermeasures have likely succeeded at their intended purpose. This is why threat models try to quantify the time and/or monetary value of what they're protecting.
Is gcc really starting to fade away? Wasn't Rust working on some backend interop with it? That shiny cool Cosmopolitan thingie was also built on top of it IIRC.

I was also under the impression GCC still outputs better asm than LLVM overall.

Conversely, I recall reading the zig team ran into some woes with the latest LLVM release, and that there's a lot of churn in LLVM APIs from version to version.

Actually, I wouldn't have guessed at the eviction moratorium, so it was interesting that that was the chosen example. If that's the kind of thing in question then clearly this is a fundamental difference in perspective on where things started and have been, so differences in opinion on where they're going will probably be impossible to bridge without addressing that, in much the same way that if someone's sailing South from the US and tells me they're going to keep on going that way in order to visit the Arctic, we're going to need to sort some things out before understand what's going on—did they mean Antarctic? Do they know something I don't? Are they just very confused? Hard to say.

And yes, of course I suspected that was the case. But now I know. And this wasn't some kind of ploy—given my understanding of American history I genuinely do not know what someone (you) might have meant by "abandon centuries of liberal democratic tradition and hard fought freedoms". The pandemic response measures seems basically normal to me, in the context of how the US usually operates, in practice. Mild and tame, even. Progress we gain in fits and starts, regressions here and there, often pretty terrible for long stretches of time. Liberty-limiting measures during emergencies, including other pandemics, are typical. We evidently didn't abandon the project of liberal democracy any of those dozens of other, often worse, times when liberty's been more restricted and even heading toward, in the moment, being further restricted, if that project remains as something that can yet be abandoned, so what should I think is meant by that claim? It's either that the writer has a different understanding of the lay of the land, so believes all the above context is incorrect (why? Perhaps we've read entirely different history books? Who knows), or knows something about what's going on, that I don't. It looks like it's the former—unless the eviction moratorium was a bad example of the kind of thing you meant.
It is strange. The obvious solution to Reddit's revenue problem was to build a marketplace into the foundation of the network, and they should have done that more than a decade ago.

Etsy, eBay, FB Market, Craigslist, Fiverr, OnlyFans (which was built-up by riding on social media propagation, taking advantage of services like Reddit), and 400 other various types of online markets. There's no reason Reddit could not have have built something substantial in the ecommerce platform space over the years. Taking a small cut from transactions would have eliminated their advertising dependency. Reddit's karma also lends itself easily to forming an ecommerce trust network via transaction feedback, which would form the backbone of buying and selling products or services on there. Reddit figured out to absorb image hosting away from eg Imgur (which also piggybacked off of Reddit to then form a competing social network), and they didn't figure out to do the same thing in the ecommerce space, despite how obvious it was.
These are the same people who create elaborate PizzaGate, QAnon, Wayfair, McAfee, etc conspiracies. They are in the business of creating conspiracies not cause they can ever prove them in court, at least not without a truly inept and likely corrupt judge, but because they attract certain types of people into their cult so they will hopefully have more mentally unwell seditionist show up next time.
I can understand your pain. Years ago when I started a side project, I faced a similar issue with Quicktime so I decided to just build a screen recorder which exports to .mp4 by default. It saved me a lot of time and headache.
Screen recordings don't use ProRes – they're just standard MOV containers with H.264 in them. I recorded one now and ffprobe says:

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from './test.mov':
...
Stream #0:0(und): Video: h264 (Main) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p(tv, bt709), 900x492 [SAR 1:1 DAR 75:41], 1666 kb/s, 58.45 fps, 60 tbr, 6k tbn, 12k tbc (default)
I remember when Quicktime worked on Windows.
Hello. I am a UK-based artist, designer and animator, currently doing contract work, interested in a permanent role.

My training is in Fine Art, and I have an MA in Animation. I can draw. I prefer 2D to 3D. I am experienced producing vector and raster graphics, mockups and storyboards, and previously worked as a post-production editor for an SFX/ad-campaign agency. I'm an artist, not a programmer, but am comfortable working with HTML and CSS for mockups.

I've used most Adobe tools professionally and additional tools for animations.

Thanks!

Not sure how Reddit is worth that much... Are the 50 power mods in charge of 90% of the top subs selling access to state propaganda departments? Actually don't answer that, its painfully obvious.

$ per user revenue is pathetic compared to most social media platforms.
You're describing tactics that will lead to your tenuous survival. If the heat doesn't last too long. And if you don't have anyone else is your house, not a likely circumstance globally considered. Almost like 35C wet is not very survivable. Your claim that 35C wet can be tolerated by most for hours contradicts the article, and your claim that it's more tolerable than 70C dry contradicts the concept of heat index. Anyhow, you're welcome for my charitably stepping in to let you know why you're being downvoted. You're stuck on pedantry and straw manning and pointless unproductive argument. The Hacker News collective had you pegged, and I'll just join the downvote parade and ignore your type in the future. I'm out.

There will be some mixing of fresh air through the snorkel but that's a small opening and a long tube. It will still mostly be the air you exhaled. For a traditional snorkel that's a small volume relative to a breath but not so much for those masks. Plus, if you're diving under the water a traditional snorkel will be completely purged while these masks will retain the air.

Let’s ignore the elephant in the room about canceling the founder CEO, and look at the brain drain claim instead. I could maybe buy that argument if they were facing technical/scaling challenges, but that’s not the case – was there also brain drain of the top marketing and sales talent in Silicon Valley?

I guess there was probably a big exodus of people after the IPO. All those employees were locked into their positions due to 90 day exercise windows. Once the stock was liquid they had no reason to stay anymore. Then there was the whole “Uber is an immoral company” shtick that gave employees yet another reason to leave (to go work for more upstanding companies like Facebook, I’m sure).

Yeah, it’s no surprise Uber is having trouble. Demoralize your work force, make enemies of regulators and drivers, experience a multi-year global pandemic... none of these things are auspicious signs on their own. Taken together, it’s hard to imagine that Uber hasn’t peaked.
I started to write this out but realized a more polished explanation might be more useful:

"Snorkels constitute respiratory dead space. When the user takes in a fresh breath, some of the previously exhaled air which remains in the snorkel is inhaled again, reducing the amount of fresh air in the inhaled volume, and increasing the risk of a buildup of carbon dioxide in the blood, which can result in hypercapnia. The greater the volume of the tube, and the smaller the tidal volume of breathing, the more this problem is exacerbated. Including the internal volume of the mask in the breathing circuit greatly expands the dead space."

(The face mask snorkels are relevant to the "greater the volume of the tube" part.)

> Maybe we’re doing it all wrong writing programs in assembler. We should give them to a VM,

This is what compilers do. Their input is a program in a more abstract language, either bytecode, an intermediate representation, or a source language.

The problem is that damn undecidability, which is like a minefield of rakes. It's undecidable for a compiler to tell if a program will do anything (e.g. halt). It's undecidable for a compiler to tell if two programs are equivalent. It's undecidable for a compiler to tell if a program is minimal.

So compilers have to well, be dumber. They approximate a lot.
Afaik Cockroach - as well as elastic and redis and many others - all followed Mongo DB and changed their licenses to a Source Available License (that is not accpeted by the OSI as open source) that aims to protect their cloud offering from cloud providers hosting it.

You asked if there was "something intrinsic to Reddit traffic that makes it difficult to monetize?" and the answer is: Yes, they're far less invasive than the other platforms you mentioned.

Just at a very high level:

- no offsite tracking (so no retargeting - the follow you around the internet ads)

- no separate ad network (you can't buy ads on Reddit that show up on 3rd party sites)

- limits on how granular targeting can be (it's by sub-reddit but they exclude many based on size+sensitivity)

- no demographic targeting (you can't pitch your product to males 18-35)

- no fine grained geographic targeting (lowest they go is major metro areas of millions of people)
I like to think of LLVM as a piece of infrastructure, like neutral fiber wiring that any ISP is allowed to use. From that perspective, I’m a lot less concerned about having few options that I am about browsers.

Although the diversity of C/C++ compilers is descending, the number of compiler backends in general is still pretty high (Go, .NET compilers & runtimes, Java compilers & runtimes, JS engines, etc), and LLVM can’t fill all the niches. I don’t think that we’re at a point where research is stifled.

Won't be easy getting older users on a site where "boomer" is a slur.
i agree and i m very happy with the OQ2. however the VC-hype was unwarranted and that s probably a good thing. The "metaverse" has existed in gaming for years and is probably niche, the current hype is also unwarranted

I think he meant to ask about rates. The term risk is slightly ambiguous.

Death or long term disability is the risk of Covid.

The rates of those outcomes are extremely higher for the actual disease.

I Feel like a lot of people are falling into a “Both sides” or “fair and balanced” type trap by over indexing on that in theory the outcome could be the same, while ignoring the elephant in the room that the odds are vastly different such that there’s not really a comparison.

MP4 also supports putting the MOOV atom at the beginning of the file (which allows to start watching while downloading), it's up to the encoder to place it there. The reason it's often at the end of the file, is that the MOOV atom is variable-length and the whole stream needs to be processed to generate it. Thus, placing it at the end is faster.

Isn't the most sought-after demographic 18-35 because they have the most disposable income? Afterwards disposable income drops off because of kids and/or retirement.

I think it is relevant to point out that Intel’s compiler team would almost certainly never have chosen LLVM in the first place, if it forced them to release whatever secret sauce is giving them the performance increases we see in those performance plots. So it’s not so much a “look at how much LLVM is missing out on by not using copyleft”, it’s more of a “LLVM has gotten some benefit from Intel adopting their tech and putting some of their work back into the open source project”.

Sure, I’d love for Intel to upstream every optimization they make, but I don’t see that as necessary or even good business sense for either Intel or LLVM.
Thanks! :D

Yes, through masks don't reduce the likelihood of infection in the same way like vaccinations. The vaccination significant reduce infection rate for the person who takes it. Any secondary effect on other people is the result of the vaccinated person not being sick. Mask on other hand might in a limited way reduce spread if the person who wear it is sick. Masks without intake filters has zero effect on the person who wears the mask.

Vaccinations also have requirements with generally 90%+ protection, while masks has anything from 0 to 90% effectiveness in filtering breath emissions. As a effective measure against covid, vaccinations are a much more effective and powerful tool.

After two years and in my experience, you can't have large gatherings and expect a low risks. Neither vaccines nor mask nor the combination of both can produce enough of an defense. 2m distancing, washing hands, and keeping human gatherings inside to an absolute minimum is the only way, and then follow up with mass vaccinations. I don't think given current scientific knowledge that one can cheat that process.
>The company says funding will go toward building out community and advertising efforts and increasing headcount.

"Increasing headcount" by alienating the older userbase, and "advertising efforts" by making the advertisement more and more obnoxious, and less distinct from actual content?

>more empowering for communities

Correction: more empowering for a small set of "powermods". The moderators of smaller communities may eat dirt, for all Reddit cares. (Or be victims of constant harassment, even if the case Aimée Challenor shows that Reddit does have the technology to prevent it.)

And, given who pays the dinner chooses the dish, who will fund Reddit is also a concern. I do not think, for example, that instances of criticism against the Chinese government being labelled "racism against Asians" is just the product of the local morons, but the product of the local morons being led by Reddit Inc. It makes sense when you remember TenCent invested on the place.
I would imagine most of these investments will go to three places:

* Sales - start generating revenue from all these eyeballs, leveraging your interest graph for targeting. this requires way more headcount than you'd expect, especially to chase enough revenue to justify a $10b valuation

* Safety - beyond all the well-discussed dangers of large-scale user forums, this also impacts monetization. you don't want to subject the average new user to extreme/alt/adult content (though you can still offer space for those communities) or else you may scare them off. major advertisers want "brand safety" and want to avoid being associated with upsetting or even mildly profane content

* Regulatory - dozens of countries and states are rolling out unique regulations around privacy, data usage, and user rights. this is a nightmare to navigate from both a product and legal sense

Just a heads-up, the File System Access API[1] is underway in Chrome, which potentially removes nearly all of the absurdity here. It has other benefits too. A web page using this could write a .sql file on to your drive, that other programs could then access. One of the other bright stars in my world is Karli Koss, who has an extensive personal data-extraction setup for a ridiculously colossal variety of services & devices[2]. A vast amount of this massive massive data-gathering framework is just reading sqlite databases of the various devices and apps. If the web can help participate more actively, can let apps write sql files to store state: so much the better I say. Help externalize your state beyond the browser, please!

I realize terraform turned 1.0 recently but I still harbor a lot of anger towards them for 0.11 to 1.0. They were selling support and enterprise features and convinced everyone to go all on on terraform and the result was pure hell getting from minor version to minor version. Upgrade fatigue set in hard in my org and I still have teams I stumble across sitting on 0.9 and refusing to upgrade.

The only pass terraform gets is that it was the least worst of IaC at the time. And even now in the day of k8s, on-cluster CI/CD, and AWS-account-per-team, something has to provide the initial k8s cluster, VPC, Client VPN, etc. before your devs can use an account.
