I apologize for the late response but here is a challenge to you.

Try to to parallelize a simplified form of applied energistics.

Applied energistics is a mod that lets you create an item transportation network. There are storage containers and machines with an inventory (for the sake of simplicity make them hold exactly 1 item and let the machines just turn A into B, B into C, C into A). The network interacts with inventories through interfaces. A storage interface makes items in that inventory accessible to every machine. Machines receive inputs through exporter interfaces and send outputs through importer interfaces.

It effectively is a database for items and that is exactly what makes it difficult to parallelize. The vast majority of games have 1:1 interactions between entities. In this system interactions can be as bad as n:m. That's also why it lags so badly with large networks. A hundred machines periodically scan hundreds of inventories.

Are you saying we should be extremely skeptical specifically of arguments that justify the positions of those in power, but not other arguments?

Or are you saying that we should be extremely skeptical of all arguments equally?

It's one of those books I think are more relevant than when it was written.

The basic concepts and quotes don't do it justice. Read it fully. The "parlor walls" as social media give the book chilling metaphors for our current era.

Thanks for this. I've been toying with this idea myself in the context of Signal's refusal to implement a web client, due to web clients missing TOFU. Glad to see it's not as crazy of an idea as I felt it was.

I wonder why this topic seems so unpopular. Nobody cares that currently it is impossible to make a secure web app?

From your other comments I also found webext-signed-pages, and the issue asking if they could make it secure, and I'm amazed that they dismissed it. In their readme they claim to protect against malicious and compromised servers, but in reality they don't, so what is the point..?
But here we're talking about one particular CVE:

> everyone is now aware of the awful engineering practices that underpin their products

This one fault doesn't tell anything about overall quality of the product.
Check out Stan Johnson of the "Prophecy Club" on YouTube and elsewhere. He's been riding various Evangelical trends since the nineties or even the eighties with promotional tie-ins to various enterprises, e.g. prepper food/technology, silver bullion, prophecy videos and conferences. I can't imagine he's making all that much these days and his hybrid physical/online seems small. He got the COVID-19 a couple of times and didn't bother to tell his still-meeting congregation about it until quite late.

He preys on the gullible ... but in some Black Swan event sort of way (e.g. extended regional power outage) his adherents may come out ahead for a short time.
Where there are differences among humans, I think they should be eligible and encouraged for scientific study. Science doesn’t (or at least shouldn’t) care about feelings. I worry that we’ve created a society where “it’s taboo to study that” will blind us all on the path to true understanding.

If we discover facts that we internalize as uncomfortable along the way, it wasn’t the discovery that made those facts exist. Politics can take over after science reveals the facts, but (ideally) not before.

I find it extremely likely that, across all research, that we will find actionable information about what interventions are helpful (and which are not) and blinding ourselves to that in the interest of comfort is undesirable IMO. These could be nutritional, societal, economic, or other and these interventions could serve to lift billions of humans to a better condition.
What language do you use C++ or Rust?
Funny story: when I was starting on Linux, I have both the vim and Emacs tutorials a go. The vim one is just a text file you edit with various commands given.

During that tutorial I pressed the wrong thing and somehow deleted the whole file. I then thought, vim is not for me :)

I stuck with Emacs, though I recently discovered the joys of vim too.
In my opinion, this looks far better and more usable than a lot of new UIs nowadays.

I’d say appearance != usability, and while this might look a bit dated, it probably behaves a lot more like a desktop application than most Electron apps out there.

That's not what their argument is about at all. Don't change the context to argue in bad faith.

Women don't have the same financial expectations as men do. This is true even today, despite all the push for equal pay and equal rights. Often, that's prior to even getting into a relationship. If you seek an indication, ask a bunch of guys if they would settle for a girl still living at home and then ask the inverse, both groups aged in their 20s.

Given how men are increasingly "giving up on society" because of these standards being harder to achieve every day, GP's argument isn't that improbable at all.
Sometimes I question myself if people posting these "a junior dev can build this product" haven't really worked with systems at scale and all of the myriad of issues that scale brings or if they are being the usual hyper-optimistic-dev that isn't considering much past the proof-of-concept point of a product.

Either way is quite baffling how common this kind of comment is, almost a decade reading Hacker News and it pops up constantly.

I’m not convinced that all those men need to go to college, but they clearly need something.

This. We are seeing the results of what was reported in the book Boys Adrift.

My older son just graduated high school. He has no interest in college at the moment, and has shown a gift for working with his hands. He is currently doing a carpentry apprenticeship with an acquaintance that runs a renovation and design company. He loves the work, loves the people he works with[0], and comes home and wants to build more stuff. He's making pretty decent money as an 18 year old, and is part of something that very much embodied.

[0] His crew is run by Swedish woman who was trained as a metal worker, so it isn't just a bunch of dudes, which is also great.

The identification of differences between groups seem to be commonly conflated with the act of unfairly discriminating against a group with prejudice based on differences (perceived or real), which is kind of absurd when you think of some of the more superficial and obvious yet real differences. You clarify this very succinctly, but it is still abstract, and I find many people tend not to understand until given a more concrete example... this I find challenging to do without being prejudged as some kind of racist or sexist, so unfortunately I just don't bother any more, the world has become overly sensitive to certain subjects.

> But in the scheme of the worlds issues and achievements of people - we’re at clean drinking water level.

On the world level, yes. On a Western country level? No. Well, maybe in the US, in some parts, flammable drinking water probably doesn't help.

But if you look at Sweden or Germany, "it's the drinking water" doesn't work. To discount genetics is to close your eyes to reality -- not incredibly helpful when you're trying to understand something. And understanding helps if you want to change something, which progressives do.
Hello, everyone! Yeah, I have also heard about such tricks. A couple of months ago, I was fired from my job and I decided to look for a job.

I was able to find a great casino, earn money and withdraw it easily.

Don't you have codes and license requirements for electricians and roofers? In my country, most of what makes electricianing harder than electronicsing is the rules. There are rules about how close you can put mains and low voltage wires, which your guy should have followed even if he didn't know why, rules about what parts of the house you can fix them to, or if they can be laid loosely or must be stapled to the framing, the spacing between the staples, how to pull a wire through a hole, where you can drill holes for wires, using a wrong colored wire with a sleeve on the end, etc. All the understanding of electrical engineering in the world won't have you knowing those rules.

How are either of these "breathless fulminations"? Or this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28439648 ? To give this as the reason is just reading from the teleprompter without even looking at what's in front of you.

Meanwhile, rants about programming paradigms or coworkers, big companies, all of those and more can be rather colorful, it's mostly when stepping on the boots things get painted as rabid rants at the drop of a hat.

Yet, what intellectual who is more than a vulgar stooge of power doesn't have a violent and uncompromising antipathy against those who would murder people for expressing the wrong opinion, or even simply for acknowledging historical facts?

Lots of people want to start families. It's not something I invented or "default to". There is nothing wrong with wanting to start families, either. Some may find that nothing in the big as cool world is as cool as having children.

Nobody says you have to do that, but if some men and women want to do it, it will show up in the statistics.

Also even if you don't want a family and just want to explore the world alone, you don't need that much money. What exactly, do you want all the money for, that a high end career would give you? Also working 60 hour weeks would also prevent you from exploring the world, wouldn't it?
To fine tune what you said, the article (to leave the actual scientific work in question aside for now) focuses on progressives denying genetic differences between groups, but modern behavioral genetics focusing on differences within groups, between individuals.

(Between groups being entirely too muddled by confounding factors)

And the stridently progressive crowd (read: Twitter) rage-cruising right past the distinction, and using arguments against the former to dismiss the latter as anathema.

And then, as these things typically go, coming to their senses and being somewhat embarrassed by where they end up, but unwilling to concede their obviously righteous point and so making increasingly intellectually ridiculous justifications.
"all they need it to do is do whatever they want" sounds like a very middle class take on things.

People from working class rust belt towns in the UK, for example, can't just do what they want, since there are no opportunities. But they are told that they are privileged and can do what they want, and then people wonder why support for labour/leftism has plummeted in working class communities.

> Libraries that are designed with exception systems are in the business of second-guessing what's an error for the caller

Okay, let's take some concrete example: a library that does a network call in order to accomplish it task. Imagine it sends/receives all relevant data, and then the TCP connection is closed from the remote end with RST instead of FIN: for the library it looks like a RemoteHostClosedError being thrown. What next?

Some libraries would second-guess the caller that it's not an error, swallow this exception and return the data as normal — that's bad, we don't like those libraries.

Some libraries second-guess the caller that it is an error and rethrow it, throwing away the would-be returned data — that's bad, we don't like those libraries.

A good library would instead not second-guess the caller and do... what, exactly? Return both the resulting data and the exception? But that's the case when the error happened on the wind-down, what if it happened in the middle: should the library return some sort of "resumable context" together with an error? Or what?
Netgear issues patches for vulnerabilities impacting its smart switches
Yup. I agree with the GP’s general premise, but I wouldn’t make high-karma posters have their comments appear higher. Instead, I’d weight their up/downvotes on other people’s comments proportional to their karma, but only in subreddits where they accrued karma. Thus, someone who accrued 10000 karma in history subreddits might get e.g. 10x the voting power in history subreddits. However, if they only had 10 karma in science subreddits, their votes would not be worth a lot there.

Of course, this is not perfect (what if someone posts about history in a science subreddit, or vice versa), but it’s a start. AFAIK no platform has tried weighted voting yet.
Every dollar the US spends goes into the private sector. Your bank account. US debt is private sector savings. Some of that savings is interest bearing like US treasuries. Think of it like a bathtub. Spending is the spout, and taxes are the drain. The US must spend more than it taxes otherwise there won't be money in the economy.
Thanks, and yes, I could have been more precise. I'll take a look at the latter.

Just like every other surrounding country and countries like the US with business interests in the nation.

Saudi Arabia was the second country to recognize their government in the past.
Pakistan was bombing for and aiding the taliban before the invasion because they prefer them over pashtun nationalists and for other reasons.
Iran which was fighting the Taliban has dropped their rhetoric a good bit.
100% on the money. One problem I've gained through doing programming is that it's so deterministic, and so your thought process eventually changes -- "if I do this, then this will most definitely happen"... gotta get out of that mindset. Gotta take risks when the downside is minimal or doesn't apply to you that much. Or when you know the weighted risk-return (sharpe ratio) is better than many think.

This sentence makes it sound as if Murray was acting in good faith when writing the Bell Curve and received undue flack from susceptible people. This wasn't what happened: Murray and Herrnstein used a big corpus of explicitly racist studies (pro-apartheid South African ones for instance).

This (pretty long) videos[1] offers a quite thorough review of the sources used in the book, and clearly this book isn't an honest look on a controversial topic (writing an opinionated book isn't a problem in itself, but Murray himself claimed his book to be as neutral and factual as possible, which is clearly not the case).
