"The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced an agreement with ASM Lithography (Einhoven, Netherlands) that would allow the company to participate in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography development effort now underway in Livermore, Calif."

EUV is a joint research by US Dept of Energy and several US companies. ASML got invited to join the research based on conditions lay out by US Dept of Energy.

Right, but I had thought that clang would have done something involving deducing the bounds of n, which could be used to avoid overflow in later optimizations.

Now that I think about it, though, they key there is "could" - overflow could be avoided by deducing bounds, but if said deduction can't occur then what you describe sounds like the most natural action to take as long as there aren't other issues.
Ask HN: How to decide which idea to build into an app
I currently have a few app ideas and am unsure which one is likely to be more commercially successful.

I would like to do some initial validation and use a quantifiable metric to determine which app to build out an MVP for.

I was considering making a landing page for each idea and then using Facebook ads to drive traffic and then building out the idea with the most sign ups.

Does anyone else have any processes they use to compare app ideas and get hard data on which idea to build into a product?

I live in Thailand now, but lived most of my life in The Netherlands. I live on the Thai countryside. Most of the pork and beef/buffalo meat my girlfriend buys in the village market, I don’t really enjoy. It’s often “chewy”. Apparently Thai people do like these kinds of meat, but I think The Netherlands would export most of this meat the 2nd or 3rd world countries.

Those “chewy” kinds of meat would be ok when slow cooked I’d wager, perhaps in a Hungarian goulash [0].

I suspect the local pig farmers send the best cuts of meat to the big city, to sell for higher prices.

At least the chicken meat is good.

Reignite – next social gaming network
Yep!

And in fact, that's exactly what TimescaleDB supports - things like hyperloglog to support approximate count distinct, including as part of continuous aggregates. [0]

This blog post - "How PostgreSQL aggregation works and how it inspired our hyperfunctions’ design" - provides a really nice description of how our the API design of some of our analytical functions are motivated by the ability to "split" processing into the "pre-aggregation" and "finalization" steps, with the blog post focusing on the example of percentile approximation. (I think it was on HN a while back as well.) [1]

re:ignite will be your social gamer network that connects you with players who actually suit you.
Discover and make new gaming friends!

With reignite we want to create a social gaming network to find, connect and organize players for multiplayer games. Our focus is on the following points: Find suitable people and mates to gamble with our LFG tool or find already existing teams. Organize your gamer group or clan easily and quickly. Create and hold tournaments and contests to compete with other players and teams.

I briefly floated a profile on there, though I decided to take a new full time job and focus on that for a while instead.

While on the platform, I was flooded with non technical people who didn’t have much besides an idea and an MBA. I guess if they could credibly raise money/sell product then maybe it would make sense but I was highly skeptical of the value add, and I got the feeling a lot of them were looking for a free dev to build some big product that they now get to shop around to investors, taking 50% of the equity for doing so.

The #1 skill I am always hoping to find someone with that I vibe with is design. No matter what you build, both UX design and a consistent visual aesthetic are very important. For some reason SWEs make more money than designers in industry but whenever you’re at startup network events it always seems SWEs outnumber designers 3 to 1. And likewise I didn’t see many people with design portfolios on this platform.

I’m surprised so few people care about where there cofounder lives. It seems YC is geared towards situations where you go all in, work hard full time on the project etc. That would be a situation where I would most care about a strong relationship that I think would be much easier to build in person.

Good cops become bad cops, fired, or dead. None of those things are helpful. You can't change the system from within, especially not starting at the bottom.
I'm not sure I agree with the conclusions in this thread.

>It seems that everyone now agrees that the bottleneck is yard space at the container terminals. The terminals are simply overflowing with containers, which means they no longer have space to take in new containers either from ships or land. It’s a true traffic jam

This seems like definitely not the real bottleneck. You have to ask yourself, "why is there no space to put new containers" and the answer is (probably) "well we don't have enough trucks to move the ones we have off the docks". Why don't you have enough trucks? This is where the root cause for the bottleneck probably splits. I'm speculating here, but we either don't have enough physical trucks (I doubt this) or we don't have enough labor to load the containers on the trucks and actually drive them off the dock.

Which is probably the most important question: why don't you have enough labor? I can venture a guess[1].

>Port truckers are typically independent contractors, without the benefits and protections of unionized transport sectors or even major companies with shipping divisions, like Amazon.com Inc. Their jobs require them to line up for hours to pick up cargo, and they’re paid only when they move it. [Emphasis mine]

>“The port truck driver, for decades now, has basically been the slack adjuster in the whole system,” said Steve Viscelli, an economic sociologist with the University of Pennsylvania who studies labor markets and supply chains. The entire system, he said, is built around free labor from truck drivers as they wait for containers.

Cut checks to these people, and get those containers off the docks. I feel like we're living through some Black Mirror version of The Wire Season 2.

The internet can be highly regulated or the new one can be highly centralized and controlled.

The old internet could disappear as long as the economical incentives are enough to transition to a new centralized form of internet.

We are far from it, thanks, but don’t neglect that Facebook made a ton of websites become useless (to their owner at least) and disappear. Also, networks operators have made low cost plans limited to some of the internet. This is far from enough to kill the internet but a more restricted network is totally amongst the possibilities. And I’m not even talking about state control like in China.
Wouldn't highlighting specific examples fall prey to Streisand Effect? If they don't want to spread hate speech, they can't name it.

On the flip side, I see AmRen acknowledging the ban on their site, but not suggesting the ban was unfounded; only that it stifles speech (indeed, but stifling hate speech is the point of banning it in YouTube's TOS). Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't appear that even the aggrieved party contests the nature of their content.
It is very disappointing for sure. I think the best thing we can do right now as users and developers is to make our voices heard and to ask AMD to support VFIO-Mdev on consumer GPUs. If enough people ask I think they will dedicate the energy to supporting these new open APIs as the other vendors now have. We have to be clear that we want this on consumer gear, not some artificially locked out server card where they have relegated these capabilities to with zero technical reason to do so.
I guess I wasn't clear enough with my comment. I was talking about US citizens. We have exactly the police we vote for, every single election. Yes, there are loud people online who wish it wasn't so, but when people get into the privacy of the ballot box they reliably vote for "law & order".

And what if China performs the calculus: decides that Tactical nuclear weaponry is fine and that the USA isn't dumb enough to escalate into Strategic nuclear weaponry?

There's a big difference between nuclear powers lobbing 100kilo-ton bombs at each other's navies in the Pacific, and nuclear powers using 10-Megaton bombs at each other's cities.

Given that China has decided to make a large mass of cheap Destroyers, what do you think China is thinking about this next war? Tactical nuclear weaponry would favor the one who has a more dispersed naval force, and be a bigger problem for USA's multi-billion $$ supercarriers, would it not?

-------

Lets say China nukes a military Supercarrier. Will the USA respond by nuking Beijing? Of course not. Knowing that USA is tactically in the disadvantage from using nukes (due to the composition of our fleet vs the Chinese fleet), we know that USA won't escalate to using even tactical nukes.

Hey, thanks for the very nice back and forth. I really enjoyed the discussion!
A much safer way to get a "down the barrel" shot of a discharging weapon is to fire it at a mirror.

Angles of weapon and camera give the appearance of looking down the barrel. Actual discharge is in a safe direction, and the mirror itself may be backed by energy-aborbing material (sandbags, gel, etc.) The resulting imagery is of course quite striking.

I've looked for but cannot find any examples readily. I was thinking that either Hal Edgerton or some ultra-slow-motion footage used this method.

This is probably beneficial, as it provides a clean interface for emulation writers to target.

Part of the intent on getting developers to use these APIs as much as possible is to make forward-porting / "legitimate" emulation of games easier.

If China annexes Taiwan it will be for reasons that have nothing to do with TSMC.

There may be a short term benefit but if they get cut off from ASML (Europe), Applied Materials (US), etc. it's going to be tough to keep their machines in service and stay leading edge. And those companies have very deep international supply chains too and may also get sanctioned.

Ask HN: Have you done a DNA test for health? Did it reveal anything useful?
I'm curious about those DNA test companies that say they will check for a bunch of diseases you may be susceptible to. It certainly sounds very tempting to be able to get in front of some serious condition you may encounter later in life. Has anyone here had a particularly positive experience with a DNA test?

You're right (and I don't dispute) that almost all firms aspire to long-term shareholder value creation, and that there are both practical reasons (market forces, competition) and theoretical reasons (Econ 101 arguments such as the two welfare theorems, principal-agent theory, etc. [1]) why that is and should be so.

However, that is just a broad and fast rule, and it is neither empirically true, nor desirable, nor legally required that every firm at every opportunity "maximises profit". It is this over-simplification that I argue against [0].

If Facebook is shown to pursue profit at the expense of teenager health, or at the expense of democratic institutions, or Shell is shown to pursue profit at the expense of the environment, the appropriate response is not to shrug and say "doh, that's what companies do (and must do)!".

Instead, one ought to discuss whether A) the legal/regulatory framework within which the firm operates should be tightened (eg with rules that just prohibit certain things, or internalisation of externalities), or B) whether a firm should refrain from doing certain things even though they're (still) legal and increase profits.

[0] GP didn't state, as you sensibly do, that "profit maximization should be taken to be the default", but rather (my highlights) "That's any for profit company no matter what anyone believes. Any company its only purpose is profit.", which is just the facile statement I argue against.

[1] Note that these Econ 101 arguments for the primacy of profit maximisation rest on many assumptions that don't hold, see for example James Kwak's book Economism:
Bad Economics and the Rise of Inequality.

Not having updated the system (within reason: it _can_ take a week, but it should _not_ take a year) is gross negligence as far as vendor liability would be concerned.

But by all means, let's limit the minimum liability for software vendors for such scenarios to "costs of downtime and effort for reinstalling backups and getting everything up again": That should provide an incentive to make backup procedures effortless and have the systems make some noise if they aren't backed up (with regular recovery testing etc).

As it stands, software vendors say "users are to blame" as if their shitty software isn't enabling ransomware, users say "can't do anything about it, we're down for the next 6 months" as if ransomware is some force of nature (or act of God or whatever), when both positions, while not entirely untrue, are mostly lazy.
The police in the US can point a gun at you and get you to comply, but if you think the courts are going to accept evidence collected while that gun is unholstered, then you definitely don't understand the justice system here. That's probably the single easiest win for a defense attorney in court.
I assume they were referring to doctor groups such as the AMA which actively work to limit the number of doctors.
If the US were to adopt the requirement of a police candidate having an A-level (or whatever the local equivalent is called, I can't figure it out), I predict the problem would solve itself within a generation. This requirement is not just an idea, but tried-and-working policy elsewhere.

Well if we look at another "artistic element" of the game, we see that it relies on the absolutely shit combat from SDV, which doesn't exactly inspire hope from the gameplay.

The point is that it's really fucking boring to get the same art style again. Why am I going to play a game that bores me just by looking at it? I want to have fun. That's what games are for.

I think a constructive thing for governments to do is to gently push people in that direction.

Make high-quality, audited backups a legal requirement, or offer strong incentives for it, and much of the problem goes away. Companies may be able to outsource it, which arguably just shifts the attack vector elsewhere, but you would hope people who specialise in backups are better at it than their amateur clients.

Political will has evaporated in the age of polling driven decisions. The Donor class sees actual leadership as dangerous to them, they still remember the betrayal of FDR and guard against it.

I suspect some huge profits are being made by some while the supply chain remains effectively strangled, so why would they want it fixed?

The New York Stock Exchange was founded in 1792 (229 years ago), there's a lot of things that can wrong over the course of 500 years to mean funding for your project would disappear.

"Can't the same be said about companies that aren't non-unionized?"

No, for two reasons. First, a company always has far greater negotiating power than an individual worker. Second, the company's incentive is to spend as little money on workers as they can get away with, in order to maximize profits. As a result non-union jobs almost always pay less and offer fewer benefits than unionized jobs.

So even if a company could be convinced that they should not ask warehouse workers to pee in a bottle instead of taking the time to go to the bathroom, workers still come out on the losing end when they do not have a union.

"You could just as well say you are giving yourself up to the whims of the union leadership"

Workers have a say in union leadership decisions -- at a minimum they elect their leaders, but in most cases there are other ways for people to be involved. So unless the workforce also represents a significant fraction of ownership of the company (very unlikely for any company of significant size) they will have far less say in management decisions than in union decisions.

"People shouldn't have to join a particular union"

That is standard union-busting propaganda. It sounds great to give people a choice but the reality is that it reduces union representation and gives management an advantage over the workers by keeping them divided (among other things, it makes a strike far less effective and far less of a threat). The reason unions demand that the entire workforce be part of the union is to ensure that the union can negotiate with the company on equal footing -- two big parties negotiating, not one big party dealing with many small parties.
