We're doing exactly this. Our philosophy is simple, instead of forcing you into a specific stack, we can "introspect" multiple data sources like GraphQL & REST APIs, MySQL and PostgreSQL, S3 for file storage and OpenID Connect for authentication.

This way you can plug and play any of your existing infrastructure and services and turn them into your own private Firebase.

Finally, because we "introspect" all your data sources, we get end-to-end type safety. We don't just generate an API for you but also a truly type safe client.

Controlling everything from backend to API client allows for a lot of optimizations, e.g. the generated client knows if authentication is required to fire off a Query and therefore waits until the user is authenticated.

Is Halide used in any ML system for feature extraction?
So true! It could be fine tuned more explicitly on existing domains and their popularity.

I think you might be overestimating the amount of 'formal' evidence. Obviously anyone with any amount of common sense worked out that a physical barrier would probably be helpful, but there weren't really the kind of formal studies that the medical establishment pretends to need. Your opinion is, as far as I can tell, broadly accepted fact (ie several officials said as much).
This one's pretty nice:

Ah that's correct. Thanks for the clarification.
This must be the least exciting response... because I suppose there are many like me, who have a bookmark where every post that mentions Rust is listed. Like this one.

So the same reason you got quite a lot of responses is the same reason why many posts get voted on: they get eyeballs early on, so the HN algorithm promotes them to a wider audience.

Besides that I assure you, there's lots of interesting and unique things happening in the Rust sphere, many of which don't make the front page.
Yeah, per-house is probably never going to make sense, but larger scale operations where they can use hydraulic fracturing techniques to expand the surface area could be the solution. They call these Enhanced Geothermal Systems, and basically they frack the rock between two well bores to try to maximize connectivity and surface area.
"Algebrically": in a way that shows extreme emotion. https://l.thisworddoesnotexist.com/vtAj
I think rpx and unified patents do something like this.
>The problem instead seems to be a systemic one. i.e. What kinds of posts does the platform incentivise and promote as a whole? However, changing the system would require significant product updates and harm the bottom line, as it would likely result in lower engagement.

It took me an hour but I made FB enjoyable for me again by making it a feed that is just my friends in chronological order. As a bonus there is no good way for the system that decides what to show me to be gamed, I just bookmark this:

https://facebook.com/?sk=h_chr

Preventing all the groups and pages I had interacted with before from creeping into that feed was the time consuming but worthwhile part. I had to go into my groups settings & unfollow them all individually though:

same for pages:

Motivation gets you started, discipline gets it done. Much the same with college. I was not good with math, but I busted my ass studying at the 'math lab' in college, so much so that the TAs said they were going to start charging me rent :^). The sort of person who's motivated and disciplined enough to get a college education is probably the sort that can stick with a diet and not buy that delicious looking strawberry cheesecake at the bakery (ummph).
I haven't connected to my cluster but my RUs keep going up. Extrapolating I'll be at 20M RUs over 30 days without using it.
> Why the NYTimes ran it is beyond m… oh right money.

It seems almost every article is just another form of advertisement. Someone pays in some way and then the article has an agenda with implied call to action, or what I call, "call to thought".

I think it makes sense because we've been in with the Internet and Web 2.0 for a long time now and we don't need centralized curated content anymore, so these editorials have to now make money from selling their influence and promotional powers more so than just information.
You've run into a "rough edge" of the beta release that will be fixed soon. When you keep the Cluster Overview page open, it runs queries against your cluster so that it can display information like "# databases in the cluster". Unfortunately, those queries run every 10 seconds in the background, and are consuming RUs, which is why you see RU usage without having connected to the cluster yet. But never fear, we'll get that fixed.

One thing that may not be clear - you get 10M RUs for free, up front, but you also get a constant accumulation of 100 RU/s for free throughout the month. That adds up to >250M free RUs per month. This ensures that your cluster is always accessible, and that you never truly "run out" of RUs - at most you get throttled to 100 RU/s.

I hear you on the difficulty of understanding how your queries map to RUs. SQL queries can be enormously complex and differ by multiple orders of magnitude from one another in terms of their compute cost. That's why we built a near real-time dashboard that shows you how quickly you're consuming RUs. You can run your workload for a few minutes and then check back on the dashboard to see how many RUs that workload consumed.

> Maybe across all time, yes. But parties change. Right now there's a clear enemy of free expression, and it's not the right.

Are you sure about that[1][2][3]? People on the left side of the aisle seem to be invested chiefly in social shame; the right side is actively using the power of the state to control public expression and educational content. Equivocation between the two feels like false balance.

> the solution to these types of problems are incompatible with capitalism as we practice it today.

It isn't, regulations to price in externalities is a cornerstone of modern capitalism as practiced everywhere in the west. If your government isn't doing its job then you shouldn't blame capital, you should blame your government, your voters or the system you use to count votes and elect officials.

If companies can just buy politicians then the problem lies with your democracy and not with those companies.
Realistically?

Just Babel, SWC, ESBuild, and TypeScript's own compiler.

I'm not really aware of anything else with serious momentum, or isn't simply built upon one of these projects,

SWC itself if I recall correctly was built to address speed problems with Babel

The other speed bottleneck I've found is postcss, which SWC is also trying to address with their own new CSS parser, which is the CSS parser they extended in Next.js 12, from what I can tell

ESBuild has also grown out of this, but takes a more opinionated direction

This isn't the gulp / grunt -> browserify -> webpack / rollup churn of the past in my opinion. These kinds of tools are much more targeting on being around in the long haul

> Results: On average, smokers were exposed to more than 200 antismoking ads during the 2-year period, as estimated by televised gross ratings points (GRPs). The odds of having quit at follow-up increased by 11% with each 10 additional potential ad exposures (per 1000 points, odds ratio [OR] = 1.11; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.00, 1.23; P < .05). Greater exposure to ads that contained highly emotional elements or personal stories drove this effect (OR = 1.14; 95% CI 1.02, 1.29; P < .05)
A prohibition on income tax and on progressive (uneven) taxation in general. The legislature are trying to push against both prohibitions in 2022. They have levied a flat 0.85% payroll tax, which is essentially an income tax, and a progressive capital gains tax (with a wide 0% bracket and a 7% bracket above some threshold).

That would make an interesting word game: mix in unusual words and you have to guess which ones are real.

Yes, the Hacker News demo shown does run at the Edge (using Vercel Edge Functions) when deployed. If you self host, it would run on your server of choice.

Vercel doesn't have 4 regions, we have 17 :)
Some small subset of COVID tests are sent to larger labs to perform a more detailed genetic test to determine specific variants. The prevalence of different variants within that set is extrapolated to the population of the region from which it originated.

If the lab finds that 87% of the samples from Adam's College are of the Omega Mu strain, then it's assumed 87% of total cases at Adam's College to be Omega Mu variant.
If you like the idea of getting developers out of the backend plumbing and repair business you might want to check out https://stepzen.com (I work there). We agree that APIs and the data sources behind them need to be modernized the way that companies like Vercel and Netlify are modernizing frontends. Our platform is built on top of GraphQL to give developers that one-stop shop for any and all data sources; we'll keep your API fast and secure. Next week we're going to release a new product to make that even easier.

We might spend that much if we actually cleaned most of them up.

So maybe we could consider the tax isn't really about cleaning them up, but compensating the rest of us for having to look at them.

I think the only fix for this is to make it illegal for companies to list educational requirements in job postings.

Search for any entry level job in an office environment, how many list a college degree as a requirement? Anywhere north of 80% sends a message (Get a college degree or work for minimum wage).

Not if the company that produces them is carbon neutral, which is theoretically the argument here. In general you're obviously correct, but I'd expect most emissions aren't incurred from waste.
You're not wrong :)

I discuss my opinion a bit more in depth upthread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28990879 but we don't actually know what happened, so it's impossible to say.

The candidate that is unable to explain any details about how linux containers actually work, other than to say "I used kubernetes at my last job" is getting picked after the person that actually understands how they work (given that we're hiring for a low-level linux role in this hypothetical :) ).

Or to frame it in a different way, how would you sort an array of numbers? The answer "I'd call array.sort()" isn't wrong per se, but there's an answer the interviewer is looking for and that's not it. If the interviewee furthermore becomes rude and aggressive about it and doesn't even know what time complexity is, that's a pass. (Not remotely suggesting that that's what happened here, but sometimes the biggest interview isn't official - if you're a raging asshole to the person at the reception desk, don't expect to get a callback.)

> Use your settlements budgets to fight because the rest of us don’t have settlement budgets.

That's one of the reasons why some companies will settle instead of litigate - it's a cheap way to kill your competition before it threatens you while, at the same time, not raising any eyebrows about anti-competitive practices.
Yeah it would need to sit between the pump and the pressure tank. My existing shutoff valve is -- like most -- after the pressure tank. What I really need is something to cut the AC power to the well the moment water starts to touch the floor under the tank.
As a non-web-developer, I'm kinda excited about WebGPU. Specifically WebGPU native, that has potential to be a portable modern 3D graphics API without the difficulty of using Vulkan or DX12.
What do you mean by "proficiently literate"?

The only definition I've ever seen of literacy is the ability to read/write, with no requirement that the writing be particularly eloquent. I don't know of any college that would accept illiterate students (with the possible exception of the truly blind, who might have accommodations to use audio for all tests). It would therefore be impossible for a graduate of a 4 year college to be illiterate.
Agreed - I've always wished recipes would have two ingredients lists: one for shopping and one for prep. Like some recipes will call for half a cup of diced onions... So do I buy one onion or two? And recipes that spread ingredient prep throughout the steps make it a pain if you want to prep up front. Having a semantic list of ingredients means you could display them in whichever format is more helpful in the moment.

My other gripe is when recipes tell you to prep 4 tbsp of an ingredient but aren't clear that you only use 3 in an early step and are supposed to save the other 1 tbsp for an end step. Not sure how this could be programmatically solved though

To draw together the two answers here to the original question.

1) Emulating an ISA includes emulating its memory model. As saagarjha says, this means that Rosetta 2 must (and does) correctly implement total store ordering.

2) There are various ways to implement this. For emulators that include a binary translation layer (that is, that translate x86 opcodes into a sequence of ARM opcodes), one route is to generate the appropriate ARM memory barriers as part of the translation. Even with optimization to reduce the number of necessary barriers, though, this is expensive. Instead, as mmwelt mentions, Apple took an unusual route here. The Apple Silicon MMU can be configured on a per-page basis to use either the relaxed ARM memory model or the TSO x86 memory model. There is a performance cost at the hardware level for using TSO, and there is a cost in silicon area for supporting both; but from the point of view of Rosetta 2, all it has to do is mark x86-accessed pages as TSO and the hardware takes care of the details, no software memory barriers needed.
Drove through Texas agricultural land in spring of 2016. Windows up, not a convertible, and I was still horribly affected for 2 weeks. My eyes and nose burned the moment we started driving by the fields, and my nose continued to run and drain for 2 weeks after.
It's extremely HackerNews-ish of you to propose that the author of the article ignores your pet theory.

The author of the linked article is Barry Eichengreen, widely recognized as the premier scholar of the Great Depression. The article references about 900 pages worth of other articles, believe me: your pet theory about the 1920's events is considered in the conclusion. They're not ignoring it because they read fewer books than you.

> The US president talks, without a hint of embarrassment, about the need to borrow to continue to service debts.

Governments don't work like a household. What matters is borrow costs and use of funds. If a government can borrow and the net growth generated is greater than the interest rate on the debt, it's a good thing to borrow. Like any business debt.

A government can be in debt forever, the only thing that matters is borrowing costs and growth rate (and how the growth is generated see eg. Chinese real estate for malinvestment).

The impression that I get from the media is that a lot of people have quit their jobs to become full time retail traders now that the market is booming. And there is a labour shortage affecting production and logistics

And when the market crashes, as it always does, many of these people will be in the red and that would greatly affect consumption..

How true is this?

What would this mean for a small town? No one would want to open the first bakery, the first hair salon, the first bait shop, etc.
Yes, I disagree with that. Even if I agreed, I'd still think we shouldn't do anything about it.

How much bad stuff is "too much?" Which stuff is "bad"? Who gets to decide? Why should I trust them? Who and what else is influencing them? What happens when the people making those decisions change? Why should I cede the authority to decide which "stuff" I get to see to anyone other than myself?

There are no good answers to any of these questions, and there never will be.

Yeah, I actively avoid web.dev becauee every time I read something there I end up being steered towards another Chrome-only nonstandard feature. MDN is always clear about what's supported where and when features are Firefox-only, it clearly warns you and provides alternatives and fixes for other browsers.

It is currently shipping behind a flag in desktop versions of Chrome (and all its derivatives), Safari, and Firefox. It is also shipping behind a flag in Firefox for Android. I don't think it's too far out from finally shipping.

The biggest boon would be for mobile devs to help avoid the 30% store tax, but this is also the reason why mobile Chrome and mobile Safari (especially Safari) tend to lag behind in major ways.
If you look closely, the point is that media outlets regularly contradict themselves in pursuit of a consistent political agenda. When you collect the headlines and list them side by side, the implicitly (or explicitly?) coordinated propaganda becomes obvious.

Just to get off this strawman path, Reddit is owned by Advance Publications. I don't wish to go on a path about ways some things they do are not signatures of being a publisher, because they are publishers.
I'd argue, trusting an OS vendor with built-in services and apps is a much more secure bet than trusting the vendor of any random app. Simply, because they are easily caught (just a single user has to sniff the traffic) and trust is a major requirement for selling an OS. The incentives for compliance are high as are the stakes. Any change of policies would be most likely advertised openly as an improvement, and then it may be the right time to jump off the train.
I honestly don't understand the obsession some people have with the gold standard. Even when the US had the gold standard, the US never had gold reserves that matched the dollars in circulation. Not once. Ever. Also, the gold standard doesn't stop sovereign devaluation as happened by FDR in the 30s.

Historically gold existed as a currency because it had some useful properties:

1. Unusual appearance;

2. Relatively scarce;

3. Inert;

4. Fungible; and

5. (This is a big one) Density. Up until the modern times it was the densest material someone could be expected to have (eg Iridium, which is denser, wasn't common in the Middle Ages). Why does this matter? Counterfeit currency, as was a problem with anything based on silver.

Currencies only have value because people give them value.

There's a lot here but this jumped out at me:

> The Germans fell into a policy of financial excess, ending in hyperinflation. Their experience was considered one of the object lessons proving the value of the gold standard.

No mention of the Treaty of Versailles here. Germany was forced to pay war reparations. Those were denominated in deutschmarks. Hyperinflation actually "solved" Germany's reparation debt problem. In a way, Germany was incentivized for hyperinflation. The importance of that cannot be overstated.
I don't understand how printing money could not cause inflation, it sounds like mental gymnastics to me. Expand the money supply without expanding the value that money represents and the money now represents less value than it did before, I don't see how that could ever not be the case.
