> NT was developed to be portable and was working on architectures other than x86 in the beginning.

NT itself yes, but the userland? Not in the slightest. Apple provided Rosetta runtime translation at each arch transition, MS did not. As a result, no company even thought about switching PCs over to ARM which meant that there also was no incentive for the big players you mentioned to port their software over to RT.

Cost saving would've been to get rid of the IHS entirely. Their mobile chips work fine without them, I don't really understand why they're a thing for desktop processors.

AMD uses them too, so there must be a reason... is it because they're afraid of improper installation breaking them? That's on the user.

The weight of the desktop heatsinks? Small changes to latch design should suffice. Or you can have a metal spacer around the chip with the die exposed, kinda like GPUs do.

I've replaced many laptop chips and even ran some on desktops with no issues.
Impressive? 2011 says hi.

But I've think you've gotten looped around here to a stance that fails to account for the original context. It wouldn't be that surprising if an AI could categorize people into "tall" vs "short" from pixelated medical images; certainly nobody would say, as the parent comment did, that the AI must be cheating because there's no such thing as being biologically tall.
I'm a product manager not an engineer...but i manage digital products, so i hope that is close enough.

I use text files employing simple markdown within them. I use one text file per project/product...however i'm thinking of going back to a single monolithic text file regardless of project/product...since it might make grokking things a little easier (good ol' CTRL F is fine)...also, sometimes some efforts span more than a single product...so i get slightly paralyzed trying to think if this effort belongs in text file for product A or B, etc. So a single file would resolve that. In any case, the text file approach makes selection of tools much easier (and with lots more choice). For work/dayjob, i use NotePad++ (99.9% of my jobs simply issue me a Windows machine with no choice in the matter), and for personal matters, since i use linux, i use Geany for working with the text files (though have been playing with Kate/KWrite). Over the last 6 months, i moved away from dropbox to NextCloud to synch all the text files. Here again, by using simple text files, i have flexibility for the authoring tools as well as synching tools. As far as referencing/looking back at my notes, yes i do and quite often (hence why i think going back to a single big text file might ease my searching a tad). Also, i have very slightly started to take work notes on paper when in person - a little for diplomacy but also because when i go back to my machine to type them into my text files, i find that it helps with recall/memorization.
I'll make a comment that tries to be different than the range of criticism here already. Instagram is toxic for everyone.

For reasons too personal to put here, I've been pretty depressed and dysfunctional lately and I've unintentionally discovered the experience of doomscrolling. The output of the instagram algorithm is absolutely terrifying. It has the perfect metrics (swipe time, profile browsing, etc etc) to prey on every impulse inside of you and to send you the perfect cocktail of content to feed those impulses. Fear, doubts, wants, etc. etc. are all inputs to the algorithm and the output is content that makes you feel those things more.

I have to wonder if this type of media is similar to magazines on steroids, or other pulp media of the bygone era. No one here makes this comparison so maybe I'm off base but I do often if I'm scrolling through the worst possible version of a home produced checkout-aisle magazine.

EDIT:

I appreciate the comments that make this personal and are trying to help, but my instagram problem will be fixed when I manage to fix my real life problems... a much bigger task. My point is to highlight that the algorithm can suck anyone in, not just teen girls. They just happen to be the most vulnerable.
I think the problem in this case is less the number of requests, and more what it implies. If certain endpoints are even a little slower than they should ideally be to fulfill the requests, you now have a metric ton of not-efficient-enough requests, which adds up very quickly. It's not a problem of making the connection, but the abstraction level.

You could argue, well, fix the API performance right?

That would be a valid suggestion. However, if the API is general purpose, what performance level is acceptable? Should it be able to perform tasks as fast as the average API consumer would expect, or should it be fast enough to serve the UI as well?

It creates a requirements problem in my opinion. If you were to have an API team, is this really on them, or is it on you for trying to use it in a way it wasn't necessarily built for?

This disconnect is why I don't believe a UI should ever be written against a generic API that is data or query heavy. It would involve too much coordination to get it right, which removes the advantage of having components and teams separated in this way (which is often done nowadays).
A compliance officer is a theoretical example role (that was meant to be easy to draw parallels to) of a person tasked with checking compliance of some form. (Eg. that you're Isolating / no visitors, no contraband, your telescreen is on etc.)

Nazi Germany is used as hyperbole - because it's both that and historically true (demonstrating the hyperbole to be still tangible).

I agree there are some great things about living in a society largely free from gun crime and the risk of being unnecessarily shot by police. But in Australia we have basically no meaningful internal backstop should a tyrannical government sweep over us.

I'm also definitely not advocating using or displaying weapons when talking with your representatives. I think that's a dishonest and uncharitable interpretation of what I've written. I am saying however that any laws may find it difficult for broad enforcement in a society that is armed and displeased with whatever law is attempting to be enforced -- and that that is a deterrent to creating such laws in the first place.
We need Government regulation. Specifically, to not display the # of 'likes', friends, followers and other similar metrics publicly on each page.

Remove this metric and you remove the major gamification/psychological element.
It reminds me of base R from 2010, and i thought dplyr had driven a stake through the heart of those approaches.

More generally, the API is large, all-consuming and not consistent. sklearn is best in class here, I rarely need to look things up whereas the pandas docs autocomplete in my browser after one or two characters.
"the lines aren’t drawn along genetic lines. "

Race is definitely drawn along genetics lines - you've just demonstrated that in your example.

The 1/4 black - 3/4 white person was not identified as 'Asian' in your example, but rather, in the mixed physical scenario was crudely categorized as one or the other, in the example you gave, Black.

(FYI I tend to disagree a bit about the category though: I believe people will be categorized mostly for how they actually look, not so much the 'ratio' of anything. There's a lot of 1/2 Filipino 1/2 White people on TikTok who 'look' 100% White and make funny videos about the fact nobody believes them about their heritage).

Your example shows that race is definitely a social construct, but that it also has underlying genetic realities.
I initially had this same belief, but I realized I had such a limited understanding of race after reading the wikipedia article on it [0]. That we divide not based on actual genetics but visible markers makes it a social construct. And the way we've chosen to look at race politically has changed over time.

"Because the variation of physical traits is clinal and nonconcordant, anthropologists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries discovered that the more traits and the more human groups they measured, the fewer discrete differences they observed among races and the more categories they had to create to classify human beings. The number of races observed expanded to the 1930s and 1950s, and eventually anthropologists concluded that there were no discrete races.[93] Twentieth and 21st century biomedical researchers have discovered this same feature when evaluating human variation at the level of alleles and allele frequencies. Nature has not created four or five distinct, nonoverlapping genetic groups of people."

Your userbase is not just small, it is shrinking. While initial attrition may have been do to anti-competitive practices by other browser makers (who you could have taken actions against, if you were actually independent of them), your continued loss of even the hard-core userbase that has stuck around this long can only be explained by your own disregard for the wishes of those users.
Why would you want 128GB of RAM without ECC support, something totally mainstream at AMD?
Yes. One of the things I miss the most about Blackberry was how easily repairable they were. I had a bunch of parts in a box in my desk drawer back in the day when I was the Blackberry/BES guy for a company and employees would come to me to do in-house repairs. They were easy to work on, for the most part pretty resilient to abuse, and the keyboard was fantastic. No phone has had a better keyboard than Blackberry.
This is a good example of one of the errors that I often see in what is otherwise the best scientific writing, which is either forgetting to specify what a certain model says, or simply straight up forgetting/confusing that a certain model isn't reality.

Maxwell's equations say that light doesn't interact. Maxwell's equations are known to be wrong in that way. They're still a very good simplifying case that you can do very well with using, by all means, just like Newtonian physics in the right conditions, but they aren't the way reality works. Maxwell's equations also have no place to put a gravity term, yet gravity clearly affects light.

The one I probably see the most often is articles about black holes confidently speaking about "what goes on below the event horizon" from an Einstein relativity point of view, which is where you get all the singularities and ring singularities that lead to different universes somehow, etc, again either forgetting to point out or simply forgetting entirely that those are the specific predictions of Einstein relativity, which is known to be inadequate to describe the inside of a black hole. It is certainly fair to discuss that theory's predictions, and whatever really is happening in there, relativity will certain shine some sort of light on it, but it is a mistake to present it simply as "what happens on the inside". The model is known to be broken here.

I am working out how to phrase this in a way that makes sense to the HN crowd because this tends to ruffle feathers when I say it, but this is all what should be well-known stuff. It's not like I'm "denying science" when I say this; quite the contrary! It's "denying science" when you insist the known-by-science-to-be-broken models are in fact not broken where the science is pretty clear that they are.

I remember reading a cryptozoological theory that there could still be some mammoths left, hidden in the vastness of Siberia. Absurd, obviously, but I always thought you could make a great film about a ragtag crew searching for the last remaining mammoth tribe in the wilderness.
The genetic differences between different people in Africa are far greater than the genetic differences between black and white people in North America. The term "race" as used to describe belonging to a different groups which generally experience their lives vastly differently to other groups is thus inherently social. The hypothesis goes as follows - if black and white people are so similar to each other biologically, why are their life experiences so different? It would seem that there's more to it than just the biochemical composition of our bodies that dictates what kind of a life you'll have.
The Wet Bulb temperature still needs a unit of measurement.

> Even heat-adapted people cannot carry out normal outdoor activities past a wet-bulb temperature of 32 °C (90 °F), equivalent to a heat index of 55 °C (130 °F)

So the F wet bulb temperature seems to make even better use of 2 digit readings than "plain" F. With 2 digits, C only uses 32% of the possible 2-digit readings.

I just think that's such a clever idea. It doesn't take a genius to go to JC when you're 15 years old and a lot of high school bullshit disappears.

It's the sort of system that works only so long as not too many people use it. If a junior college was 1/2 high school aged students, it would become, well, high school (to the cost of the other students).
> Can you? Like say you changed you sum() function to only sum every other element, because for the code you're working on right now that made sense. Well now you've screwed up the other places which relied on sum() summing all the elements.

I would not change sum but just filter out every other element and feed that new list to the sum function. (If you need it often, write a new helper.)

Your sum function should not decide which elements should or should not be added, that is the callers job. It doesn't even have the context to decide on that.

So yes, I would have the guarantee that nothing would break because I did not change sum in the first place.

In practice you probably wouldn't even start with that sum function but simply implement a function that takes two numbers and adds them together. Then the caller can use higher order function like fold and filter to do whatever it needs.

(Of course we assume it is not literally adding two numbers but some complicated logic, otherwise don't even write a helper for it, just sum your stuff when you need it.)

And yes, you can still have logic bugs in functional programming languages and it can't really protect yourself from that when refactoring but I wanted to note how keeping your design simple and having easy to understand composable functions can help avoid bugs.

I’m not sure the point of the review was to make a convincing argument for the veracity of the preceding claim (SA exported their internal problems, the US unwittingly helped, leading to disaster across the greater Middle East). I haven’t watched the documentary yet but I suspect that wasn’t the “point” of the film either. It’s a complex claim (that I personally find very convincing) that is one historians get to make later with the gift of historical distance from the events in question. So, time will tell I suppose.

I find people who complain about Go's error handling don't understand how to program with Data. They want to type everything out. I say make a list of data, then loop through it once. Ruby people often seem to think, I know, I'll just write the code each date item at a time. Especially in unit tests. Wow.

So if you think Data first, Go is great. If you think in terms of method chaining and verbs or nouns first, then Go won't treat you kindly.
I have an acquaintance who used to write and publish weird science fantasy. He worked his ass off to get noticed, but suddenly said "fuck it" and quit. He's still got websites, and he's put all of his work on the web under a creative commons license, but doesn't seem to do any promotion. He's not on social media. He just lurks on IRC.

I didn't understand why until I read this article. He figured out that the whole self-promotion online was a big con and he was one of the suckers.

I just got an email from him after sharing this with him, and he had this to say: "It's not like I need to get paid for my art when I work in tech and make upwards of eighty grand a year. So why should I whore myself out? It might not be great art, or even good art, but it's my art. I enjoyed making it. It gets me laid. Hustling to earn a living as a writer isn't worth the effort when I've got a chill job as a full-stack dev making CRUD apps."

While I'm sure these places have it in their terms, just making someone sign a contract to agree to it doesn't make it not-unethical or not worth criticising. It just makes it "not illegal in some jurisdictions"
I totally get what you mean - I would suspect that when you work with unstructured data, tabular data manipulation is maybe 20-40% of what you do, and when you work with structured data, it's more like 60-80%.

So here's a potential business model for this: salvage rights.

When ships sink, the owner generally still retains ownership of any property. Sometimes the location of the wreck is known. Sometimes it needs to be found. It can cost a lot of money to find a wreck and recover any property.

So salvage rights are a principle of maritime law such that whoever does this is entitled to a reward commensurate with the value of the goods recovered (eg 10%).

I imagine there are orbital slots that are essentially unusable because of space debris (eg Project West Ford [1]). If orbital slots are sufficiently scarce then these could have value. At some point it may become commercial to spend the effort cleaning up an orbit and making it available. Companies could then be compensated for the value they create this way.

I do believe this will still require a dramatic decrease in launch costs, as in orders of magnitude more. But we'll see.

My personal belief (and hope) is that the future of getting into orbit is orbital rings [2]. If so, that completely changes the game because cleaning up an orbit essentially becomes a problem of just holding up a giant "paddle" (for lack of a better word) that is fixed to a point on Earth (essentially) and just letting the debris hit it.

1. I remember that while growing up fashion magazines, actors/actresses and I want to say peer pressure (but am fearful its incorrect) were a big source of body image issues.

2. Maybe it's a side effect of our society or "normal" to have security issues while growing up. We've been having good childhoods for how long - 100 years? Maybe there are some feelings that we never had the option of expressing or feeling.

According to the Nuffield Trust[0], international flu vaccination coverage varies widely.

A company without investors is a bootstrapped small business. Investors without a company are venture capitalists. Without investors, a company never becomes a startup, never has front-page articles in newspapers and magazines, never gets invited onto cable news for interviews, never hires expensive talent, never buys sports cars for its executives, never spends millions of dollars on advertising, etc.

Without investors, Holmes never would have mattered. The investments are what enabled her to commit the fraud.
