GPU virtualization is a very difficult thing to do securely, I think VirtualBox said it best in their hardware 3D acceleration documentation (https://docs.oracle.com/en/virtualization/virtualbox/6.0/use...):

"Untrusted guest systems should not be allowed to use the 3D acceleration features of Oracle VM VirtualBox, just as untrusted host software should not be allowed to use 3D acceleration. Drivers for 3D hardware are generally too complex to be made properly secure and any software which is allowed to access them may be able to compromise the operating system running them. In addition, enabling 3D acceleration gives the guest direct access to a large body of additional program code in the Oracle VM VirtualBox host process which it might conceivably be able to use to crash the virtual machine."

It's currently a problem yet to be solved.

No, not really. The only requirement for the "banks create money through loans" theory is that banks practice fractional reserve banking.

Wrote a detailed post about my move from macOS to Ubuntu (https://kvz.io/tobuntu.html), and so many seemingly experienced users commented I should try Pop!OS.

> this causes cognitive confusion, because you are effectively labelling the multiplicand as something that it isn't

You make a fair point, but at that point the debate is about other choices made in the Go language disallowing implicit type conversions.

> The correct decision would have been to make the * operator be allowed to operate on a time.Duration and an integer, just as you are uncontroversially allowed to operate * on a float and an integer

What should the resulting type of the multiplication operator be when applied to a float and an integer? Should the type be different if the operands are swapped? Is it acceptable for the multiplication operator to not be commutative, given that we seem to be demanding a great deal of rigor from our type system? Should we only allow this implicit conversion if type inference is not being used?

> To refute your statement and go even stronger I don't know of ANY pls that require * operands be the same type

Welcome to HackerNews, a place that should think startup-like progressive, but really is technology conservative.
As with everything it would depend on the type of thing you’re making and whether you rather deal with problems of an existing solution or the ones you imposed yourself.

Even ignoring that. I think there is a more fundamental question here as well. What type of maker do you want to be?

I also use IPSec at home (with Windows, Android, Linux and MacOS peers) with StrongSwan and it definitely didn't take me hours to set up. Fortunately, StrongSwan maintains an extensive database of virtually any supported configuration that can be used as a starting point https://www.strongswan.org/testresults.html

People in this thread point out that is not compatible between networking hardware vendor implementations, but if you just run a Strongswan responder on your own server a lot of this disappears. And yes, Windows/Linux/Mac are natively supported. Setting up a Windows peer is importing a certificate and two lines of PowerShell.

Just a few more thoughts on setting up a high-megapixels workstation:

My ideal would probably be something similar to what Linus has set up. He uses long cables from a nearby closet, so even when the workstation fans are blasting he doesn't hear it. For now, I use 2 and 3 meter cables plugged into a mid tower sitting on the far side of my desk on the floor.

For why I'm not doing the workstation-in-another-room approach: The 4K@120fps HDR OLED relies on HDMI 2.0 cables, which are only recently available at 3 meter lengths. Linus is using a not-commercially-available prototype optical HDMI repeater to get longer cabling.

For normal use the system is near-silent and at full blast it's below the noise floor with a headset playing something at a reasonably low volume (and not distractingly loud even if I just have the headset on with nothing playing).
I am still searching for a replacement of Ubuntu. snap store not being open source made was enough for me after nearly 10 years.

Well, not so much for myself. I can handle Arch and whatnot. I am a distro hopper, although a somewhat slow one. Used i3 for years and should probably go back (or to sway). But for family members and relatives whose machines I install and support. Is Pop OS a reasonable candidate for that? The main problem with Ubuntu these days is that I have to tell them sorry no Chromium. If a school's e-learning system does not work with Firefox (or the teacher believes so) that's a problem.

Where in Northern Europe? Norway, e.g., has lots of hydro. Iceland has geo. Different places will need different solutions. Wind is viable in many places. Tides, in some. Ships full of ammonia synthesized elsewhere will be right for some places, at times. (Norway is right now building a major industrial-scale ammonia synthesis plant.) And transmission lines will be important and unproblematic in many places (e.g. Sweden), even if not all.

The "storage problem" is solved by building out storage. Some places will need more storage than others; where you need a lot, underground or deep-water compressed air might be best. Transmission lines are a backup plan. You need to use everything. Cost matters.
Your point is that there is a long tail risk which exists which might not show up in the historical data. I think this is wrong because Chernobyl is that tail risk and it is already inside the data, and moreover the odds of that tail risk happening again have declined and so it's exaggerated.

A better analogy is the stock market, where the GFC and the great depression are tail risks that are already inside the data. Or data on pedestrian fatalities across an entire country, where tail risks are represented due to law of large numbers across many people.

If you think building modern reactor designs away from cities presents a bigger tail risk than Chernobyl, you're going to have to outline how that is a plausible situation rather than going for analogies.
Obsidian is great but I still prefer VSCode for creating these types of interconnected markdown notes on desktop.
Mainly because of the sheer amount of extensions available for VS Code. For example, I can write Jupyter notebooks in markdown files and let them be part of my notes but also open them as notebooks and execute code right in VS Code.

I do love Obsidian mobile though, undefeated on mobile!

To be fair, if access to reliable, realtime (not delayed) market data was free or cheaply available, then I have no doubt that the open-source community would produce something better than the BB Terminal.

It's phenomenal how much energy and engineering time is wasted at hundreds of financial firms developing feed handlers for all the different exchanges that they wish to access, let alone the monetary and logistical cost of getting access.

I mean for many exchanges you're talking 5 figures per month for for a a 1 Mbps multicast UDP stream with a primitive protocol, poor specs / documentation and no SDK for developing anything.

If anyone could go to the NYSE we site and sign-up for access at a reasonable cost, and get access like any other modern web API, there would be a lot more innovation.

> The main problem with Blue Origin is that it isn't SpaceX.

Really? I'd say the problem is more that they've not produced much in the way of progress despite being at it for years. Beyond the suborbital dong they've done nothing but static fires and not even full duration burns. To make rockets you need engines. Until Blue sorts our their orbital propulsion they're dead in the water. And SpaceX has nothing to do with that.

Well I think you are supposed to just use systemctl to see what the configuration looks like.
yeah, that's exactly what it is - corporate enterprise architecture (EA) framework.

if you look it up, you'll forget what it stands for immediately.

so it doesn't really matter, imo.

as i was learning about it on a linkedin course, i thought....does any _really productive_ company actually use this type of stuff?

my theory is 'no', but also, you can't microcontrol everyone, every hire, so...maybe?

and most companies still use or claim to use agile/scrum/etc., so i think anything is possible.

asking about Tesla, i guess, is kind of extreme, but that's the type of company i'm looking to work for right now ideally, and i might have to end up taking a big corporate job, and i've seen the acronym out there, usually as a 'nice to have', but it just kind of seemed like either a nightmare or like something you talk about but don't actually _do_ anything about/with.

i recently (this year) interviewed with a large financial services firm and they were using SAFe (scaled agile framework), which sounded like a nightmare to me, and i would have taken that gig in spite of it, but other factors put me off.

so that's at least three AE frameworks i know of:

- TOGAF
- Zachman (some ibm arch knowledge mgmt dude)
- SAFe
I'm not sure what any of this has to do with my asking about objective data, even with your very generous idea about the definition of objective data.
Biggest advice I can give is you probably don't need search if you're indexable by search bots.

No really. Look over people's shoulders sometime.

They'll just go to Google and type in their search followed by terms such as Wikipedia, imdb, Stackoverflow, YouTube, Bandcamp, Amazon, eBay, Yelp... all sites that spent a lot of time on their search and have done quite a decent job. Oh well.

So unless you really need it for some critical reason where you know your users aren't going to do their regular patterns of going through one of the general engines, close the ticket as out of scope and go home early.

Don't bother implementing hard to do and expensive to maintain features that nobody will use. It'll become more headache than fun real quick.
> Marxism is pure utopia.

You're conflating Soviet style socialism for all forms of socialism (though it's hard to blame you as the Soviet Union didn't really care to make that distinction either) much like some critics of capitalism are conflating utopian anarcho-capitalism or extreme laissez-faire capitalism for all forms of capitalism (which is how you get political pundits fluctuating between calling social market economies in Europe "socialist" or "capitalist" within the same sentence depending on whether they talk about aspects they like or not). Worker democracy is actually closer to anarchism (which for most Westerners sadly evokes images of angsty teenagers in black hoodies throwing molotovs or spray painting buildings, rather than community organizing and radical democracy).

Soviet style socialism was heavily based on a fixed hierarchy (the infamous communist bureaucracy) and centralization. Especially near its decline (i.e. 1980s) it was heavily plagued with corruption and shortages of "non-essential" goods because of structural issues but also the dual stresses of trying to compete with capitalist economies through production for exports and trying to compete with capitalist militaries through production for weapons and supplies for strategic partners. All this while also starting from the disadvantage of not only having been an agricultural economy until fairly recently but also having suffered massive losses in a world war while still recovering from their own civil war.

Ironically, the Soviets were actually a bad example of organizing around "soviets" (worker councils) and the Bolshevist revolution involved disempowering and purging a lot of worker democracies and trade unions as "counter-revolutionary" because the founders thought they had to lay the groundwork for socialism from the top down (ironically often using pre-existing capitalist structures and stakeholders) rather than build from the ground up.

There are many thinkers outside the Marxist-Leninist and Marxist-Leninist-Maoist spheres like Bakunin, Bookchin, Kropotkin or Malatesta. The reason these names tend to be less familiar is not only that the Soviet and Maoist traditions tended to heavily suppress anarchism but also that anarchism by its nature puts less emphasis on individuals than ideas so you rarely find self-identifying "Bookchinists" or "Malatestaists".

> Most people want to be told what to do, get paid for it and go home.

Voter turnout in many country has been as low as less than 50%. One could say that in those countries "most people" want to be told what to do and not bother with politics. Would you argue this means they should therefore not be allowed to vote?

You can participate in a worker democracy led company without participating in elections or any of the decision-making processes. The important point is that if you do care or an issue arises that affects you more strongly, you can. Under a hierarchical company the best you can hope for unless you have a union is to raise the issue with HR or management and hope doing so will not affect you negatively.
> What are the Marxist incentives for new business creation as opposed to just reforming an existing capitalist company?

I'm not sure I understand your question. Capitalism is fairly recent. In fact "businesses" are fairly recent. Humanity didn't idle until someone came up with the idea of corporations, so I don't think you're asking how production or innovation can happen under models compatible with Marxism without reforming existing companies.

Under capitalism, the incentives for new worker coops are the same as for working for an existing company, i.e. not starving to death (or avoiding poverty). Capitalism aside, humans have many incentives for productive work. Research actually shows that intrinsic motivation can greatly exceed extrinsic motivation (e.g. being paid) but adding the latter can almost entirely eliminate the former, chronically: introducing money makes it a transaction rather than a favor.

If your question is why anyone would found a new fruit juice company under Marxist philosophy to compete with the existing reformed ex-capitalist fruit juice companies and claim some of their market share, I think you're still thinking in capitalism.

In my experience (Australia) you cannot negotiate directly with the potential employer you have no choice but to go through the recruiter.

I have heard of people who got a "signing bonus" at the end of their probation period which was kept a secret from the recruiter.

Personally, I usually asked for a condition in the contract for a review at the end of 6 months. In that, I would negotiate a 10%+ increase. Which is usually easy when they see that you are competent and do good work. In my experience, that approach works in small firms and hardly ever with large firms.

> * The std lib HashMap, ArrayHashMap, and ArrayList data structures are really nice

Reading Zig's std lib HashMap code the first time was an unforgettable experience for me.

I've spent literally months on some state of the art hash table papers, implementations and tons of hash functions, and Zig's HashMap implementation has got to be right up there with some of the best and most performant out of the box.

However, what impressed me most was just the level of control offered by the interface, and how clean and readable the code is.

The polluting energy sources are more expensive. How fucking lucky is that!

But I don't think nuclear deregulation will motivate the rapid change we require to avoid climate disaster. Carbon tax would help, I think, but there is zero chance it will be implemented on the global scale. (Fuck our lives, right?)

No, increasing just the font size is a hack. Unless you only use the terminal, doing this means not using GUI apps comfortably because icon size will not scale. Even if you somehow do make them scale, that increased font size and is limited to the screen you're working on. If you ever attach an external monitor to your laptop, it won't look right on that.

Avoid doing this unless you have no choice.

Will that really work long run? It seems too obvious.

But thank you, that’s the most concise explanation I’ve seen for exactly how people could use NFTs to launder money.

If this is happening, would you expect to see a bunch of NFTs go from nothing, then sell for a large amount, then not move again?

Oh also I think you’d also have to declare capital gains tax to do it properly, but that’s better than laundering money via income.

I'm not particularly familiar with IPFS: does it have some solution for free-riding?

BitTorrent as many have noted is great for popular things, even not-particularly-popular things, but absent incentives to continue seeding (i.e. private trackers' ratio requirements) even once-popular things easily become inaccessible as the majority of peers don't seed for long, or at all.

I guess what I don't quite is what IPFS adds vs. say, a trackerless BitTorrent magnet link that uses DHT? Or is it really just a slight iteration/improvement on that system?
