for "microcontroller class" whats the perofrmance level your looking at, something akin to a 68030 or so?
I can't believe that there's no mention of AWS Graviton in the article or in the comments on HN.

AWS-designed silicon has Intel running scared. Ampere is working with the other cloud providers on comparable initiatives.

Intel being obviated in the cloud is a real possibility.

> and scientists couldn’t be more fascinated

Wow, the scientists are really at max fascination? Has that ever happened before? That's amazing. I think the story should be about that.
From the Wikipedia page on chlorpyrifos: “Organizations such as PANNA and the NRDC state that chlorpyrifos meets the four criteria (persistence, bioaccumulation, long-range transport, and toxicity) in Annex D of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants”.

I don’t think cow manure meets any of those four criteria.

I think the OS is a fork of Vyatta, so it should be Linux.
even scientists often times use the disease name interchangeably with the virus.
A lot of the problem is the definitions are broken and mean different things to different people. Plus there's a lot of nonscientific or pseudoscientific woo mixed in there too!
this isn't what a dogwhistle is. it's just explanation by analogy to a model presumed to be shared by the intended audience. a dogwhistle offers a surface meaning to the uninitiated that's anodyne but communicates a hidden, coded message to those who possess some undisclosed, shared knowledge with the author. this kind of analogy entirely lacks the surface meaning and the message shared via jargon also communicates something about how you might learn enough to understand the analogy.
This reminds me of the 2019 Canadian federal election. There was a new party in that election led by a man named Maxime Bernier called the People's Party. They're a far-right populist party and generally awful. Bernier himself was running in Beauce, Quebec, which he had represented through the Conservative party since 2006 before he had created the People's Party.

But then the Rhinoceros Party, a satirical political party, announced a new candidate for Beauce named... Maxime Bernier. When asked about the confusion, the Rhinoceros Party's Maxime Bernier said, "If you're not sure, then vote for both!".

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/maxime-bernier-rhino...

The Conservative candidate won with 22817 votes, the People's Party candidate came second with 16772, and the Rhinoceros Party candidate came last with 1072 votes and another 1147 were rejected. This left the People's Party with no seats in parliament.
Is it?

The socialists I am aware of are openly anti-capitalist, and want to focus on oppression above anything else, placing race and gender based oppression at the top of a hierarchy to be countered.

They are explicitly opposed to many aspects of the Scandinavian model which is largely market based, for example School Vouchers which are used in Sweden, would unthinkable to an American socialist.
The lecturers are supposed to be lecturing.

300 kids taking a course in a 90 day semester, 10 copies in a library, each kid gets 3 days per semester with the class textbook. Would you pay 25000 for that semester of education? Maybe some students can go halvsies on a copy but the number of copies of the book that you need is roughly equivalent to the number of students. And before you say "well why doesn't the library just buy more copies" remember who pays for the library to buy those copies.

The professors don't make the changes to the textbooks, the publishers do. Professors don't like it either, they have to update all of their materials every year to keep up with the changes too.

No one is denying textbooks are expensive, I'm denying the conspiracy theory that professors and publishers are all colluding to manipulate the market.

Yes. As an Italian, I agree with OP, I have never heard "plagio" to mean "brainwashing" or "mind control".

EDIT: on second thought, there is the idiomatic expression "una persona è stata plagiata" which might be what the article is about. It is used in the sense of someone who's led astray by "evil" influences.

No it's not. "Leads to" signifies that something turns into it. The regimes that are commonly referred to never turned authoritarian, they started authoritarian - much to Chomsky's and other libertarian socialists dismay.

This is an underappreciated point. I love k8s. I hate the shit people decide to do in k8s.

At a previous employer, we had a k8s cluster with a bunch of machines that were designed to a) load a filesystem kernel module inside the container (yes inside, not outside), b) mount /dev from the host in the container with Docker, and c) mount hard drives from the host /dev inside the container using the "mount" command.

In a twist that should surprise no one, those containers don't work well. And they failed to work in crazy, confusing ways for which there is no documentation to troubleshoot, because who in their right mind would do something like that?

I've had better luck in places that have a Platform as a Service team that owns the k8s infra. They generally have a lot more pushback to say "no, you're not going to do that on our cluster" which helps to tamp down some of the crazier ideas.

It’s true that some of this could be fixed by more transparency. For example, the pesticides used on crops ought to be listed/available on packaging/at the point of sale.
It's probably exactly that runtime...desk devs have forgot that embedded is tiny, megs not gigs of memory, so not one but 2-3 orders of magnitude smaller.

You can have all the 'simple' calls you like but if you need to malloc half a gig of ram just to get started...that is heavy and bloated.

Also you say 'architecture' but unless you are talking a battery hungry cellphone you are probably talking 16 or 32 bit proc not 64, which means potentially massive increase in the size of code to be generated since you lose certain instruction sets. I don't know realistically what Obj C uses in the osx cpu architecture but I'm almost certain it's not going to be as simple as just retargeting your compiler...

Not saying it can't be done but take even the new arm laptops from Apple - that's a significant hardware investment on top of a bunch of software tricks, not just a casual retargetting that can be portably moved to other low power systems.
Yes. I'm not saying we choose to be bad. I'm saying we sort of have to, and billionaires get the choice, and still choose to generally do more damage than than any of us will ever have the opportunity to attempt.
It's Kafka-esque, really. Google has always thought it is smarter than everyone else and that has led, inexorably, to it establishing itself as the final arbiter of truth. Except Google is a dysfunctional, distracted, neurotic, schizophrenic entity, like all organizations, with an ever-changing set of in-fighting fiefdoms and warring executives.

Worse, growthism forced its "Organize the world's information" mission into "Swallow and monetize the world's information" with an added helping of "know exactly what every person wants, even if they don't know they want it yet."
Yes but you can't learn perl as quickly as you can learn awk.

This is endemic in eastern European politics.

It is especially prevalent among parties oriented towards Russian speaking populace in the Baltics.

I've never seen it work, but maybe there is a bit of Ross Perot(not that Clinton/Bush looked like Perot) effect.

PS it is hilarious that when I made a comment I didn't realize this could be taken as a what-aboutism comment.

So on a meta level I should be more lenient when posters do similar things in other threads. Maybe not every poster is actively engaging in organized https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism but there is an urge to draw parallels on some psychological level.
The Russians (and other actors) must be pissing themselves laughing at how easily they can interfere with democracy by making a few strokes of the keyboard. No bullets fired, no fellow countryman's blood shed, nothing but the minor inconviencing of some electrons. Yet the West is damn near civil war based on some social media posts.

Just look at so-called "fact checkers" these days. What started off as a useful service to the Internet and society has grown in importance and been warped into a political weapon that is used to promote propaganda.

The fact that you're downvoted is just more evidence that we're nowhere near people waking up to the danger of the problem of mindlessly delegating their thinking and research obligations to entities that have been captured by politics.

It might work to reorder using some heuristic based method similar to the AMD methods for matrix factorisation reordering which is used to minimize infill for sparse matrices.

Regardless, cool project!
I thought everyone understood the strategy is to use the excess supply of labor to push people to their limit and squeeze them as much as possible. And in commodity businesses with low profit margins, businesses that do not squeeze as much as possible get crushed by those that do.

As someone who's never thought the massively-expanded store hours since the late 90s were a good thing, that's great news. Going back to the only things open 24/7 being some gas stations and maybe the odd pharmacy or urgent care (which, most of those aren't 24/7 now, and I'd rather they be than a lot of the things that are) would be fine. McDonalds doesn't need to be 24/7. Wal-Mart doesn't need to be 24/7. I can't go shop at Costco at 10pm on a weekday, or 7pm on a Sunday, and you know what? That's OK.

"But what about shift workers?" we got by before by doing our shopping on off days, including and perhaps especially people who worked normal 8-5 mon-fri shifts—it was fine, except that we couldn't always get exactly what we wanted exactly when we wanted it; and, apparently, companies weren't extracting as much money from us as they could (else, why change policy to have longer hours? Maybe that slight delay in purchasing led to us wasting less money on bullshit, go figure), plus they could still be open 12-16 hours per day and cover that use case without being open practically non-stop.
That sounds right on the money to me?

The article goes into the etymology, explaining how the plagiaristic sense came about by a satirical use of the term in Roman times.

>The word “plagio” is not of recent coinage. It derives from Roman law, which also created its present ambiguity, because “plagio” in Italian means both “mind control” and “plagiarism,” as in “My book has been victim of plagiarism.” It was the same in Latin, except that the meaning of “control of a human being” came first, and the meaning of “plagiarism” came later.

>Responsible for this confusion was a satirical roman poet of the first century CE called Martial. In his epigram no. 52, Martial used the word “plagium” humorously and metaphorically. Just as those who try to pass off another person’s slave as their own are guilty of “plagium,” Martial said, so should be considered those who pass off a literary work they copied from somebody else as their own. They also commit “plagium,” protested Martial...

Interesting that this is pointed out, since I noticed they linked to this article, describing these sorts of jobs being a "teenage rite of passage" to be a myth.

> According to researchers at the University of California at Berkeley, about half of the families of front-line fast-food workers depend on public programs, compared with 25 percent of the American workforce.

That being said... the "bit of perspective" likely holds some weight. Many adults having no experience in this kind of hourly work simply do not know what it is like, and make judgements that demonstrate the lack of perspective.
The title obviously varies from the source, & I have no opinion on any prior cases of editorialized titles from the submitter. But, on this story itself, the submitted title is more honestly representative of the article contents than NPR's own title.

The current HN title is: "Missing businesswoman urges ex-husband not to publish book critical of China"

The NPR title is: "'Red Roulette' Reveals The Inside Of China's Wealth-Making Machine"

Notably, the interview is entirely about the details of the strange & sinister calls the author received. There is only a vaguest blurb of the book's topic in the interviewer's intro/outro. There are no questions or answers about the larger topic of "China's Wealth-Making Machine" or specific material in the book. It's all recounting the circumstances of the surprise calls, happening after the book's contents were written.

This article is truly well-described by "Missing businesswoman urges ex-husband not to publish book critical of China", instead of NPR's anodyne title – except insofar as the author's whole recounting of the calls is clearly part of the book's pre-launch PR.

(In fact, the contrast between the interview contents & NPR title is so large it raises at least 2 more questions:

• Did the author make up these calls as PR?

• Did NPR itself feel pressured to 'hide the lede', genericizing their title, either because of their own doubts about the story credibility, or geopolitical concerns about angering the CCP?)

That's not an accidental match of the names or finding "doppelgangers" somewhere, it's intentionally making doppelgangers - these "spoiler" candidates literally changed their name before the elections, one of them was born as Viktor Bykov and the other was Alexei Shmelev. The only thing they can't legally change is the patronymic, which a key part of the name in Russia and differentiates the names of these three candidates.

I find it hard to believe that you read the entire section on environmental impact, let alone the paper, if that single sentence in that section is all you could find. The quote from the press article does not disagree with what the paper says.

"The evidence suggests that organic agriculture uses less energy per unit of land, and to a lesser extent, also per unit of output than conventional agriculture (Table 3). This difference is mainly attributable to the nonuse of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in organic systems. Fuel use for agricultural operations is similar across systems. However, for certain crops (especially vegetables) more fuel is sometimes required in organic production, when repeated mechanical or thermal weed control becomes necessary (Lynch et al. 2011, Scialabba & Müller-Lindenlauf 2010, Smith et al. 2015). This may also lead to higher overall energy use in organic systems in certain situations (Lee et al. 2015).

"Concerning GHG emissions, most studies conclude that organic farming has lower impacts when expressed per unit of land but not when expressed per unit of output (Table 3). Generally, organic systems are characterized by lower nitrogen inputs, and thus lower N2O emission potential. However, balancing nutrient supply and plant demand is typically more challenging in organic systems; oversupply of nitrogen from organic fertilizer may also lead to significant N2O emissions, while undersupply leads to lower yields (Clark & Tilman 2017, Lynch et al. 2011, Skinner et al. 2014). In crop production, soil carbon stocks and sequestration rates were found to be significantly higher in organic than in conventional systems (Gattinger et al. 2012, Lori et al. 2017). In livestock production, less intensive organic husbandry systems lead to larger quantities of manure per unit of meat, and thus higher methane and N2O emissions (Treu et al. 2017). Overall, the evidence does not support the widely held notion that organic agriculture is more climate friendly than conventional agriculture (WBA 2016)."
