Making people constantly worry that what they're doing could be "bullying", could also be bullying. It doesn't eradicate the core problem, it exacerbates it.

Society is a messy place - and has and always will have roughness where its edges meet. Some entertain an understandable fantasy that a perfect one-size-fits-all solution to this problem, that will make the messiness go away, is to be found in trying to force other people to do something different. Ie, by bullying them.

That's not where the solution is found. It's just the same problem repeated back.

I've been bullied, and it absolutely does not happen anymore. The bullies didn't change - I did, and I'm much better off for it. To put it another way: I hold the power.

When enough people realise that, that's when these problems end. If you look throughout history, nothing else works - it just leads to more bullying back and forth, and eventually, war.

Zucker is right, one component of this is not taking ones-self too seriously - the one thing uniting all bullies, all those who commit atrocities, is they take themselves too seriously. They are incapable of accepting the possibility they could be wrong. So high they elevate themselves on a pedestal of self-righteousness in service of some ideal utopian vision that they eventually lose all compassion and ability to empathise. This prevents the realisation of any such vision.

If anything, it's laughable.

Being able to laugh at ourselves is not just important, its essential. The current state of the world is testament to that. Granted, at the other extreme, where comedy knows no bounds and anything can be called funny - even watching people suffer - is just as bad.

And it's a domain entered by those who didn't check themselves at bullying, and went on to atrocity, and progressed to the final stage - sadism - as they push toward an ideal dream of a future perfect, above the reality of the dysfunction that push is creating right in front of them.

Duplo is Lego-compatible. A 2x4 Lego brick fits exactly onto 1x2 Duplo studs. A Duplo brick is 2x the height of a Lego brick, and a Duplo plate is 1x the height of a Lego brick.

It's fun to build large structures quickly with Duplo then detail them with Lego!

Sorry, I meant to say brightness contrast: high-end dynamic displays will turn off backlighting in black areas, and turn them all the way up in white areas.

Let's say your movie shows a full moon in the night. Looking at that moon on the screen is now like looking at a torchlight in the night in real life. The moon section of the screen is blasting high brightness right at your eyes.

This is what I meant. I tried doing office work on such a monitor, and quickly realize it's good for immersion, but terrible for office work, for which you want stable brightness.
Being able to conclusively demonstrate the fact from physical evidence is a long remove fron casual conjecture, or even documentary record (itself often of ... variable reliability).

The most compelling narratives are backed by multiple lines of evidence. Being able to produce and prove that evidence is the interesting aspect. That modern-day anthropologists and geneticists can validate (or refute) written records from 2,500 year ago is remarkable, not casually dismissable.

Total cost: $2000

What's your point. Of course you can get a laptop with lesser specs from a cheaper manufacturer for less, especially if you upgrade it yourself after the fact.

But if you price a Thinkpad P series of HP ZBook with 64GB RAM, 2TB storage, and similar GPU/CPU performance, you are looking at $4000. I know because I have one.

Alt-tab on macOS: looking for someone to take over the project

Florida has the second highest per Capita number of old people in the country. California is one of the lowest at number 45. So while you're right...by not using per Capita numbers... you're presenting your data in a very disengenuous and truth distorting way. Its like saying India has more old people than Burbank. Well yeah no shit.. India has a billion people.

You claim less testing is the reason? That's a simple fix..look at positivity rate. Should be sky high if all the testing is coming from FL hospitals as you claim and also eliminates variations in testing numbers.

Guess what STILL less than California. Guess what positivity rate at the BOTTOM of all states.

TimescaleDB also implements compression. From the docs:

When compression is enabled, TimescaleDB converts data stored in many rows into an array. This means that instead of using lots of rows to store the data, it stores the same data in a single row. Because a single row takes up less disk space than many rows, it decreases the amount of disk space required, and can also speed up some queries.

> Hence you can't have function composition

No, the thing that stopped Java having function composition was the lack of (ergonomic) closures. But it got closures in 2014, and now you can do function composition. Despite the fact that it still doesn't have top-level functions.

I still don't really understand where all the XML came from, or the wave of equally unnecessary annotation-based dependency injection that came afterwards. There has been a dream of "write reusable components, then compose them to form applications" that has been very strong in Java right from the outset, and i tentatively think that people just didn't get that you could do the composition in code.

Even simpler and more effective is raising fossil fuel taxes. If the goal is to reduce usage of fossil fuels.

If the goal is to look like you are doing something about fossil fuel consumption, but do not really want to give up your SUV/pickup trucks, extraneous driving, life in large houses in spread out cities, and frivolous flights, then selectively targeting certain products is the way to go.
No, you cannot. I believe that the person you are replying to is stating the reasons for why they switched (and stayed with) i3 on Linux.
> Java designers have really shot every language user in the foot by eschewing the notion of a function from the language. The only way to have a function is to create a class with a single static method.

Java does support lambda expressions.

Also, the fact that in Java everything is a class is something that cuts both ways. As you're already going to have classes, you can have your pure functions as static member functions from any class that suits your fancy. That pretty much works as a function within a namespace.
Sparing a hunt: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28916392
Its mostly due to the way Windows switches threads between cores but also scheduling and OS overhead. You can get a lot closer to Linux if you use software to pin the benchmarking threads to a particular core. The tweaks they did for AMD stop the switching moving from the CCX so often but they don't fix the detrimental effect on cache performance of switching threads to different cores ever 10ms.

It's not just the Commonwealth. It's the majority of Nation States across the planet, because fascism lies in the roots of liberal "democracy": it's the next stage of any "republic" when the people want to have rights and refuse to be exploited for the governing/abusive minority (see also: "Fascism Inc" doumentary). The political systems of France and USA (who have famously inspired others) have precisely been built to avoid and prevent democracy, whose rule of the mob were seen as dangerous by the wealthy elites. Likewise, most public school systems have been designed to destroy people's cultures and form mindless wage-slaves for the industry.

WWII was won on the premise of Freedom and Equality for all. But as history has shown (eg. post-WWII anticolonial struggles and invention of modern "counter-insurrection" playbooks) liberalism was never about freedom or equality, but always about engineering consent for mass exploitation. See also Naomi Klein, Noam Chomsky... Across history, humanity as a whole has never been less free & equal. Even in the middle ages there were tons of free communes beyond the reach of kingdoms. Nowadays, where's a place you can live and your State is not going to be able to find and repress you with drones and satellites and helicopters and whatnot?

Nation States are tyranny. Vive la Commune!

You can start life over as an old military officer. You would be one old lieutenant but I have seen people do it, deploy, and enjoy it. This will pay less but the expectations are high.

As a developer in his early 40s myself I can say it’s hard to start over. Whether or not there is ageism explicitly it is certainly there implicitly. It does not matter your experience or skill set. If you want to be employable you have to learn to hang with the cool kids and play with the cool kid toys. You have to be willing to work with fresh junior developers fresh out of school on a level they understand and concede a certain level of immaturity regardless of the position claiming to want years of experience.

Immaturity in software is rampant. Immaturity suggests having your cake and eating it too, such as a phobia of writing anything and yet high expectations for written guidance. A better example is wanting simplicity in the code and doing the opposite out of convenience. As an older guy you might know better, but as someone restarting their career you must learn to expect this hypocrisy is the anticipated preference.
A big point is that a class is testable in isolation if all its dependencies can be "faked". A class with dependencies that can't be faked is problematic, so the class should generally not create any members itself.

I think the "injection" part is more literal in frameworks where the injection-container inserts references into objects in a "scope". For example in hibernate, dependencies could be given in annotations, and did not have to given in the constructor.
Ah true, there might be a bit of crossed wires here. It seems like @mizzack was using "bumped up" to mean the amount of RAM, while @Alex3917 used the same phrase but this time to mean LPDDR5/speed, but obviously I interpreted the latter as amount (because that was the context).
>>are statistically disproportionately members of groups that are not traditionally insulted in media.

>Do you have any evidence that the majority of autistics are complaining about "woke" culture?

You're right that is probably the weakest part of my response, since I don't have any particular evidence.

On the other hand the disproportionate members of groups seemed specifically in reference to people on HN who are likely to be in the group of nerds, geeks, programmers group. So if those groups are among the ones on HN complaining about wokeness, then I guess it doesn't really matter that the parts of the media they are getting insulted in are parts getting attacked as non-woke.

The original argument was that groups (on HN) complaining about wokeness are comprised of people not insulted by media. I suppose there are people on HN who find wokeness distasteful even if they are among groups that might be helped by it in some contexts.

> Even simpler and more effective is raising fossil fuel taxes.

In general I agree with you, and that ought to be done for cars. But those small engines tend to be very dirty polluters, and it would be impractical to put an extra tax on gasoline meant for those engines.

A reasonable tax would be $50 to $100. The state is good at taxing in this manner, and the revenue could be used to subsidize some green project (though we both know the tax revenue will just be wasted, sigh).
Block based programming allows people to make working applications these days. See: Mendix, Labview, Betty Blocks and many many others besides.

PLCs have historically used ladder diagrams, which are also not 'code'. I've seen Excel spreadsheets that you would have been hard pressed to replicate using code.

Programming in its very essence is telling a machine what to do, what form that comes in isn't all that relevant, and code is just one of those forms.

'actual code' is not a requirement for programming.

The classic reason quoted for SMT is to allow the functional units to be fully utilised when there is instruction-to-instruction dependencies - that is, the input of one instruction is the output from the previous instruction. Doing SMT allow you to create one large pool of functional units and share them between multiple threads, hopefully increasing the chances that they will be fully used.

It is a confusing title. It took me a good 30 seconds to recognize what was actually meant. I'm not sure how else it could've been expressed though.

There are comments elsewhere in the thread about this, but storage is not the only thing in play here: bandwidth (even in modern countries some rural places have very slow connections), energy use (it takes proportionally more electricity to transfer 140 MB vs. 1 MB, and running an UI that basically needs a web browser in the background is also a waste of electricity). Moreover in some countries a 1 TB SSD is not exactly affordable. And also in western economies, it might not be affordable for some people.

> The UK has the disadvantage that there's no constitution and a weak court system

That doesn't change much. The psychopaths in power never needs laws to apply power, as exemplified by laws which state cops are not supposed to kill "random" people. But as we well know all across the globe, it happens and the establishment will protect the murderers.

Laws are the tools of the powerful to protect themselves from the weak, not the other way around. That's the same reason for which a baker who tries to hide 1000€ from taxes collectors will be severely fined, while politicians and corporations who hide millions or even billions will never face any sort of consequences.

I think we will see iMac Pro with incredible performance. Mac Pros, maybe in the next years to come. It's a really high end product to release new specs. Plus, in they release it with M1 Max chips, what would be the difference? a nicer case and more upgrading slot? I don't see the advantage of power. I think Mac Pros will be upgraded like in 2 years ahead
When they did that they had to deliberately hamstring the SOC in order to ensure it didn’t outperform the earlier models. From a consistency of experience perspective I understand why, but it makes me somewhat sad that the system never truly got the performance uplift that would have come from such a move. That said there were significant efficiency gains from that if I recall.
