To call a mafia-state, a freedom is delusional.

I didn't use the word "freedom". There's no ideology in the current Russia, unfortunately. Neithr good, nor bad.

I guess you're from Ukraine (sorry, if I'm wrong). If anything, Ukraine is much closer to mafia-state than Russia. Corruption in Ukraine is so high now, that even presidents of EU country alert their citizens to avoid doing any business with Ukraine.

It's like slaves fighting for the right to be enslaved.

Why are we slaves? I'm free to go anywhere. I'm free to say anything in my country. I can say that Putin is bad. I can say that Putin is good. There will be no repercussions in both cases. Unlike in "free" Ukraine, where it is forbidden by law to speak Russian, for example.

Also, you fail to see how US and EU betrayed Ukraine. They don't need "free" Ukraine, although elections are a perfect way to control their puppets: if a puppet attempts to do something unpleasant, there's easy way for US, controlling all the media, to choose another, more conformable, puppet. This is why "democracy" and "elections" are of utmost importance to US in the third-world countries. Easy way to install comprador puppets.

They need Ukraine which they can plunder (via e.g. Burisma Holdings). They need Ukraine that doesn't compete on the global markets with EU and USA, so they destroyed all the industry in Ukraine (it's impossible to deny that). They need a source cheap labour - hence tens of millions of Ukrainians are doing poorly paid jobs in Europe.

That's the freedom I should wish for? No, thanks, take it back, please.

Is that 500k with or without gzip? With gzip, that would be huge.

Either way there are certain techniques like bundle-splitting and hydration that will probably have to be reinvented for these WASM frameworks, unfortunately. For the moment they're probably better suited to high-complexity browser-based tooling that needs the extra performance, vs simple crud sites.

Edit: on second thought, for an entire multi-page site in one bundle this wouldn't be super huge. I'm used to smaller numbers but I'm also used to split-bundles.

We don't necessarily have to kill everybody to get them off the planet - if we focus on space travel and terraforming, we can reduce the population of a given planet to an almost arbitrary number... once we figure out a way to safely get somewhere else.

As the artificial facade of supposed shared values, propped up by global capitalism and pop culture, dissolves, it becomes quite apparent that while the internet connects us, we definitely do not share the same culture or held beliefs.

Case in point, look at this thread - "what grinds your gears?" is the theme, and while some come through with what one might expect from HN (programming hot takes, critiques of entrenched systems), we're also getting quick responses espousing castration, the death penalty, imperialism, Trumpism, etc.

We, my friends, are a cluster.
Do you remember the initial response to AIDS? There's your answer.

(AIDS was originally attributed to only gays and sexually promiscuous people. Best case, leadership simply ignored it. Worst case, innocent victims were attacked [read the Wikipedia article for "Ryan Wayne White"].)

> Although from what I heard they're porting the good parts into GitHub and deprecating/putting into maintenance mode ADO soon.

Hush hush! By now that’s pretty much an open secret covered by various NDAs :)

What even the NDAs won’t tell you though is how much time ADO has before it’s fully “dead”. If Microsoft’s track-record is anything to go by, I would assume ADO customers will be “encouraged” to migrate 3-5 years from now, with at least another 5 before they start closing down, if not more.

Will be interesting to see how it plays out when the time comes.

Every Prius has at least 2 electric motors. In the typical Prius, it's the larger of those two, MG2 that drives the wheels. But the power that the battery system can deliver is pretty wimpy in most hybrids, because you can run the engine to generate additional electricity when you need it.

some sort of effective privacy regulation

Anyone who tries to do effective privacy regulation at the political level will be condemned as enabling crime, by the very same people that say they're very angry about their liberties being eroded and willing to shoot people over it.
It's worse when it's decided that yeah, you are interested in that thing. My interests bounce between woodworking, homebrew vehicles, and strategy video games. The YT algorithm gets itself totally snarled when I watch a video from one side of that fence and assumes that that's all I want to see now. Watch a SuperfastMatt vehicle about the Jag he's retrofitting with the guts of a Tesla? Obviously you want seven more videos from his channel that you've already watched. And I like his channel! Not enough to watch the same seven videos again, though.

It also seems to have some classification issues, too. It lumps a lot of stuff into "DIY", and woodworking is part of it--but so is a lot of stuff that more fits under "construction" or "carpentry". No shade thrown, that stuff can be interesting too, but there's a large gulf between "crotchety woodworking dork going on about tablesaw safety" and "refinishing a backyard shed with glamour shots of a Home Depot sponsored miter saw set to bouncy stock music" that the algorithm does not seem to grok. Maybe it wants me to hatewatch that stuff, I dunno.
I often search for “scientific documentary” or “variety” but the algo clearly doesn’t want me to discover new things, and doesn’t seem to include those searches to build the suggestions. It keeps repeating the 8 usual channels I’m bored of watching.
1) I think that YT could make a legitimate case that its recommendation algorithm is neutral (assuming that it's not actually biased by backroom payments etc.). That is to say: it doesn't represent any point of view about anything, and simply tries to show a user "more videos related to the one you're watching". The devil, of course, is in the details of what "related" means.

2) I don't agree that not-on-YT means no wide audience. If I have 2M twitter followers, and I post a link to a video on (say) Vimeo with a sufficiently click-baity description, that video is going to get "a wide audience" (or at least, a large one). There are ways of alerting people to a video's existence beyond YT's own algorithm. The original (hah!) meaning of "went viral" didn't mean "YT recommended it to lots of people and they all clicked". It meant "link got shared by lots of people in an ever-expanding tree of contacts". That can still happen.

3) What's hard are the videos that fall in between the cracks. Not "my kid's 3rd birthday party singalong from last week", and not "the latest video from whomever the current k-pop phenom is". Videos that get, say, 200,000 - 2M views.

4) It's unclear how much view counts on YT are impacted by channel subscriptions vs the algorithm right now. Supposing for a moment that they are heavily correlated with subscriptions, YT could drop the algorithm and not see gigantic shifts in view counts. But I have no idea whether that's true, and I can think of lots of reasons why it may not be. A service that only shows/points you at videos from channels you've subscribed too is radically different from the YT of today.
Source on it saving anyone?
Maybe, but I still want to know if they talk about the photos scanning situation. And maybe when a company is the largest on the planet and can make radical changes to our nature of privacy on an almost global scale, they get a little less deference to management’s privacy w/r/t broad speech. It’s going out to all employees.

It's not about the 50 mbps download bandwidth here. It's a combination of bandwidth, latency, and variance in latency on both the upload and download links. Usually residential 50 mbps is a peak download bandwidth of 50 mbps with pretty high variance latency. 50 mbps symmetric with low latency would be fantastic among 3 individuals, but when realistic speeds are 30/5 mbps down/up with bursts of high latency, you're in for a frustrating time.
If you watch the Tesla AI day presentation they explain the separation of duties that kind of explains what's happening.

The actual routing comes from something like Google Maps that is constantly evaluating driving conditions and finding the optimal route to the destination. It does this based on the vehicle's precise location but irrespective of the vehicle's velocity or time to next turn.

The actual AI driving the car is trying to find a path along a route that can change suddenly and without consideration. It's like when your passenger is navigating and says "Turn here now!" instead of giving you advanced notice.
I'm a bit ignorant, but it sounds like you're re-inventing "functions" in any programming language. Maybe if you could give a simple, concrete example it would help.

It is preferred, stylistically, to avoid redundancy in your writing style these days.
It is unpopular among university and research institutions that get federal grants. Also development companies that win contracts to create government websites/backends.

I agree with it, but it would disrupt a whole industry.
TL;DR: Strictly no yelling/expression of anger towards children. No scolding either. Teaching/parenting through storytelling (with most of the stories of the form "don't do undesirable behavior else some very creative monster will get you").
Are there any countries that don't have any COVID restrictions other than international travel? Did every country in the world fumble it?
That's true and a good point I kind of erased from my memory. There was a lot of pushback from the medical establishment around masks at the beginning here in Canada as well. That was extremely frustrating to witness.

This problem is analogous to the conflicting messaging about climate change that's been coming from politicians, industry, media, over the last couple of decades.
Yes, he didn't predict details like the eruption of Mt Pinatubo in 1991. "Scenario C" was a rapid emissions tapering scenario, not a global lower bound for possible future temperatures. But if it makes you feel better, if you add the more recent data going up to 2020, it still quite closely tracks Scenario B.
The guy in the video is intentionally stress testing the system by repeatedly driving in an area he knows is poorly handled. But it's totally fair IMO, this is a real road and while it confuses humans too (as evidenced by all the people here claiming that it's illegal to turn right here), FSD must handle it better than this.

VO2 Max isn't a measure of endurance. It's a measure of maximum aerobic output.

Edit: Athletes with high endurance as measured by how much output they can sustain over longer periods will also tend to have high VO2 Max scores, but that's mostly a correlation thing and not a direct causal relationship.

I'm not sure there's any point in comparing VO2 Max scores across sports. It's an interesting factoid but not really actionable.
well, you don't just "trust" it, if you are smart enough you quickly learn the good and bad sides of it. When I use it (95% of time) I know what to expect and I have a habit of putting my foot on the accelerator pedal instead of break pedal for "phantom" braking which has gotten a lot better than let say in 2018. You also know the limits - if the lines look strange - no lines at all or if they are not perfect or if there are extra painted lines then you have your hand on your knee with a finger holding the steering wheel ready to quickly grab the wheel and go. You also learn as a pro tip to let the car push its limits and let it do what it wants to do like doing something dangerous then realizing that it would correct itself after your "comfortable" zone. People expect a "human" like behaviour from FSD/AP but it is not, it is far from it. It is a good/ideal assistant but not a full replacement.
I wish tesla did some training for everyone on autopilot to show them what to expect and how to handle it.
In the same vein as "you can't go home again" (you can go back to the physical location, but you have changed, anybody living there has changed, the buildings have changed etc, to the extent that it's no longer the same thing as your internal conception of "home").. "you can't start from scratch again".

Money is not really the root cause though, any more than tcp/ip is meaningful interpersonal communication. It's just a signal.

They sold their fleets because other people (the buyers) wanted them more, in the short term. Now they want to buy because they want a fleet again. It's a time horizon problem, or perhaps an uncertainty problem - how were they supposed to know how long the pandemic would last? Or perhaps a premature optimization problem because the business was predicated on a pandemic not happening. But I don't see it as a money problem, any more than a tcp/ip problem.
You sound like a great hire to me. A lot of people in tech are somewhat challenged (in one way or another, and usually in several) when it comes to dealing with other people, so I don't see this as a disqualifying trait.

But since you are good at turning ideas into polished products, what about your own ideas? I'm talking about simply creating "catchy" apps and selling them on the App Store. Is there a good living to be made this way, with a skill level like yours? Can you get any predictable/consistent success? I'm guessing no matter how good an app is, you still need a fair bit of luck to get it seen by a lot of people (or perhaps the "right" influencers) to make a hit out of it. And yet when you see something simple and catchy like FlappyBird, made by some seemingly random guy in Vietnam, it seems obvious to everyone other than himself that millions would buy it. I wonder how many nice and catchy little apps like that never catch the big wave, and die after getting downloaded by a handful of people.
I'm pointing out that the author never says that Holmes shouldn't be punished. If you can point to something in the article that says this, I'd be shocked.

The point being made is that punishment is being handed to only Holmes and not other clear examples of fraud. The author wants all of these examples of fraud to be punished. The author is actually arguing for MORE people to be put on trial for fraud, not less.

Read the quoted passage from my previous comment where the author specifically states that Holmes should be punished.

In whichever case, a subjective argument is very weak.
My rational for using something like this:

I fully agree that toolchain you mentioned gives blazing fast initial devX, hot reload and everything. If that’s what you are optimizing for, it is a perfect solution.

OTOH when you want to optimize for long term maintenance, growing codebase that is safe and easy to grow, easy to refactor, easy to check for odd things. I’d lean heavily on something compiled and with promise/guarantee of safety every time.

In other words, it is all about trade offs and to each his own.

I'm not sure if I agree fully with its conclusion. I hope we'll figure better ways to eliminate glue code, or at least reduce it in size. Part of the problem is, it might be trivial to describe a data transformation between systems A and B in words, or even on a diagram, but it's still hell of a lot of work to put this in code. Again, accidental complexity abounds.

But beyond the data transformation glue code they're talking about, there remains the problem of boilerplate and glue code required by the programming languages and build tooling being not ergonomic enough to deal with concepts we have in mind directly.
Who's funding? What's the business model? How do we convince people that we need to experiment directly on the live system even though we don't really know what we are doing?

It feels too big and without tangible ROI for private companies, too long term for politics, too hard for governments to justify the shot in the dark.
Thanks.

> 20 pi modules likely have much better DDR, SSD, Network bandwidth

20 pi modules of 8GBs is only 160GBs.

Ignoring that: Bigger nodes are better in all practical scenarios. With 768 GBs of RAM, this singular big server can likely keep in-memory a large collection of information (ex: all of English-Wikipedia likely fits inside of that RAM).

20x Rasp. Pi cannot access all of English-Wikipedia in RAM. This means that you can't index, you can't search, you can't analyze the pages. Even if you could: you'd need to have a collaborative external memory model, which is not easy to program.

80-cores with access to all 768GBs can do many, many more things than 20x 4-core Rasp. Pi working on only 32GB at a time.
Gotta give you that. He still might have moved the steering wheel with his thigh though ;-)

Crazy how it handled a shitty situation like around 6:55 in https://streamable.com/grihhc but failed there. Guess that shows what most of the ADAS engineers already know, the really hard part are those last few percentage points to make it actually reliable.
People have been saying this for years. I don’t think it’s going to happen.
Rather than implying a limit to the usefulness of data, I find it speaks more to the folly of substituting data for critical thinking.

You can reduce a fever by treating the underlying infection, soaking in ice water, or taking acetaminophen. No good doctor would judge a patient's health solely because a single metric, namely body temperature, was able to be moved into acceptable ranges. That doesn't mean temperature isn't extremely valuable data, and essential to decision making, but that it cannot be a substitute for understanding and solving the real problem.

I once knew of a SaaS company that had perpetually growing MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue), great right? Except, churn was also growing. An increase in MRR was achieved by upselling a perpetually shrinking group of core customers. The core KPI of this company was MRR, and, unsurprisingly, this company does not exist anymore. Again, here is a case where we can see all that other data (churn, upselling) is very useful, as is the KPI. But the key to success or failure here is whether or not you want to really expend the effort to understand the problem or just chase a KPI.

KPIs are seductive because they make managing team's performance seem much easier: just get this number higher and you're doing good, get it lower and you're doing bad. But that's like playing a game of chess where each piece is controlled by a different person, and that person is judged solely on how many times they can get the king in check.
I don't like them either, but I always want to.
I wonder if e-paper or whatever will eventually get so cheap and so good, you could have a physical book full of e-pages, then after you read it, press a button, and it becomes a different book.
Depends on the language, and tool chain used to generate the wasm.

Most LLVM generated binaries, including Rust by default from memory, turn out pretty small.

Really wish Go had some kind of parameter that let it take extra time compiling "production" builds, such that it would significantly optimise their resulting size.
Some people like buying milk in pints, food in ounces, lengths of materials in inches and feet; Some people like selling the same. Now they can do so and it's not illegal for them to do so. That's it.

I don't care either - it's a non-story.
Is there value in not specifying the company? Unless you have a relationship with the company or the acquiring company, I don't see the reason for the secrecy.

I said the text of the tweet was bad PR. The graphic does not appear to have been designed to support that statement, however. Can you find any other public health guidance aside from this single tweet which supports the idea that you should don and doff a mask dozens of times during a meal?
> won't even get vaccinated to save their own lives

See, that kind of hyperbole makes me question the whole climate change narrative. There's virtually 0 chance that Covid is going to kill me. I'm vaccinated because I don't like getting sick even if I don't die at the end of it, but Covid is actually very mild. When the same people who treat it like the bubonic plague are always the ones who are telling me that the world is going to end in 10 years unless I vote to pay higher taxes, I'm inclined to discount them.
That's a lot of text just to bury the question "why does Youtube never ever stop shoving literal Nazis onto my front page all the time?" a thousand words down and then... not answer it.
