It makes no mention of the physical layer, but spinning disks need to

1. increase their device bandwidth SAS only does what, 1200MB/s ? Networks are at 200-400G right now. And an individual SAS device can only do 12Gbits.

2. take predicates, even if the interface can handle 4-16GB/s your internal bandwidth and the ability to take a predicate means the drive can start understanding the data it stores

3. HDD physical media bandwidth needs to increase. Hard drives should move to 1-4U sizes, spin slower, have massively larger platters and multiple read heads.

If we assume 200GB/cm^2, we come out to ballparkish numbers for modern drives if we assume 5 platters. Lets just say that is true.

A single side of a 30cm platter is equivalent to 5 platters, two sides so 10 surfaces of a 9cm platter. Lets ignore the space taken up by the hub.

So a 19inch rack sized storage device is going to have 10x the storage capacity. It might have 10x the HD heads? Is more a chicken all in a single egg and ... I think would have to do something more impressive to get economies of scale.

The current 3.5" drive is going to pack a lot more than 10x to the 1u. So I think the current target I'd like to see drives go is a higher bandwidth access to the device, larger buffers, ability to send search predicates and a higher level protocol. We need HDD with NVMe. One should be able to do 4GB/s to an HDD for at least 10 seconds. All HDDs should be hybrid except for DVR drives as they only see there sustained write rate.
Sure but this is a distinction without a difference in this case. My choice of the word “old” wasn’t very good, as explained in the following sentence.
> The US has a long track record of obstructing the democratic process in its neighbours in Central and South America. Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Chile, ... the list does not stop there. The US routinely ignores international law when the law is inconvenient. There is no moral high ground here.

USA in 1970-1980 had even worse moral record, which wasn't enough for Europe and Asia to not consider it the moral leader. Similarly, if today's USA actions aren't at moral high ground, China's are definitely a moral ditch, so the comparison still stands.

China is unlikely to command bigger share of world resources than USSR did at its height.

I am curious why you can edit Edge dev tools with Edge. There is literally a part of the article where I show that this is possible with a screenshot showing it on my Mac.
On the other hand, A Scanner Darkly was a remarkably faithful adaptation of the book, and because of PKD's daughters involvement (they recognized the book's importance to him and it weighed heavily in the creation of the movie).
Can somebody please explain in simpler terms how this works?
If I have a real number, and add some (shared) random value to it, then round it to 0 or 1, how is the receiver able to retrieve the original real value???
It doesn't matter that Dune was previously adapted and Foundation wasn't. Prior adaptations could have been terrible, and this iteration of Foundation will be seen in 2042 the way 70s Lord of the Rings animation, or 1984 Dune, is seen today. I reject the premise you put in another post that there is some "test of time", some arbitrary number of years, that a book passes that deems it unfit for adaptation.

It's one thing to acknowledge the flexibility required in converting a story from novel to film. It is another to change the entire message, character motives and morals while merely retaining the surface plotlines.

For what it's worth, having read ten chapters of Dune after watching the amazing 2021 film, I can say they did a fantastic job capturing the spirit and the core storyline of the book.
What applications do you envision?

The editor is currently markdown combined with a rich text UI-based editor. I haven't explored supporting other types of editors (beyond extending the UI), but I'd be open to it.
Interactions at lower energies are very well predicted by the Standard Model, so deviations are either so small they're hard to find (but see the muon g-2 experiments), or at energies higher than what we've probed.

This isn't like the discovery of quantum mechanics where we knew there were things in the "everyday" regime we couldn't predict (e.g. blackbody spectra), more like general relativity where we have an otherwise extremely successful theory that breaks down in an extremal regime. Except we don't even have an example like the precession of Mercury's orbit to point at and say, "this is where it breaks down".

"We haven't found it at low energies yet" understates how much they've looked and how much hasn't been found.
No. If you plan to be successful, there is little to no time outside of being a PhD student. If you want to be in the top 1%, and especially the top 0.01%, you should plan to spend your free time researching to become an expert in your field. But such numerical distinctions are typically meaningless since, by virtue of working towards a dissertation, you should be pushing the boundaries of your field of knowledge and thus have few exact comparables as peers.

Source: me (several years now complete w/ PhD), my cohort in my program, and my PhD-earning friends outside my field.
I think you're 100% correct that it would not be work of value. On the other hand, "The algorithm thinks this will be like that other thing people like" sounds like the exact model used for the majority of film and television today. Not least, this terrible rendition of Foundation.
Sounds fun. I’d play this :)

Especially the part about not actually playing WoW. Have as much time to play a game as you have to make it.
>COVID the pandemic ended back in May

This simply isn't true in my state. We had a significant spike in COVID patient hospitalizations and deaths starting in August. This is attributed by public health experts to the low vaccination rate in my state. I'm not sure if you count them among the culture warriors or narcissists.
This story is a myth I've heard before. I believe the original source is Thomas J. Watson, but it probably goes farther back then that: https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/thomas_j_watson_209882

> Mobile internet is much, much more expensive here. Maybe that’s because it’s less needed due to Wi-Fi ubiquity, but the difference is still staggering. Mint Mobile gives me 4 GB of mobile internet per month, while back in India, Jio gave me 1 GB of internet per day.

This is what gets me as a european, why do you get throttled so quickly in the US? I couldn’t find a plan that would give me real unlimited data.
It's not work out or time but diet that makes people obese. They probably eat fast food, sugary drinks, packaged food a lot everyday instead of unprocessed food like meat, veg, fruits, nuts.

Edit: Poor people in India are thin and rich are fat, quite opposite, again due to diet. Indian poor can't afford fast food in chain restaurants daily, must cook which is cheaper.
The smaller city where these HQs are is nicer IMO.

New York and Los Angeles, maybe throw SF in the mix, is in my experience the places that are furthest from the 'norm' in US.

Even the rust belt towns feels closer to normal than those cities.

Let's see how suburbia survive the 21st century - It surely was a unifying feature across America.
So then how do you shelter them from the world? It has no parental controls. Is the hope this time doesn’t come until their of proper age? Life has its ways
That was Clark, not Asimov. But on the topic of Rama, what a disappointing conclusion those sequels produced. I'm not sure which was worse, the Rama sequels or Crystal Skull. Either way, best to pretend they don't exist when recommending Rendezvous with Rama to people.
DWZ: A DWARF optimization and duplicate removal tool
This argument is disingenuous for a few reasons. Not least of which is that no one calls "natural" immunity psuedoscience—it's how the vaccine works. We take issue with people relying solely on that vs a vaccine (where at this point n=hundreds of millions) that prevents hospitalizations.

America does not have the capacity for everyone to get sick "the old fashioned way" and then go back to business as usual. The past several months should have clued most of us in on that by now. What happens when we reach a critical mass of health workers quitting?

The transmission argument similarly falls short given that the vaccine reduces the odds of you becoming a vector in the first place, or progressing to the point you require state intervention to survive.

I'm all for personal choice. If you want to opt out of vaccinations, that has already been in place. It means you may not be able to attend a public school, or hold a position as a nurse. Those are the tradeoffs we make in the name of our freedom.

Americans have chosen, in this instance, to put Planet Fitness and Applebee's over the public health. Had everyone been paid to stay home until domestic transmission halted + masked and socially distanced when necessary + got the vaccine if able to we would not see nearly a million dead Americans. I hold the elected officials (Dems and Reps) responsible for politicizing this pandemic and poisoning the public discourse such that a non-negligible portion of our population is consuming veterinary formulations of an anti-helminth dewormer instead of the free mRNA vaccine.
You as well, how do you protect them from the real world threats?

Interestingly I’m married to the product of this sheltering. When anything bad happens at all, she panics. Like panic attack panics. Things happen when they happen, and you’re attempting to control that instead of teaching.

There will never be a proper age to ween them into the real world.
I'm not so sure about Dune. I think it calls for (at least) a limited series, rather than a film. However, it's about far more than Paul. There are lots of complex themes and the most important setting in the story isn't on Arrakis; it's in peoples' heads. I think you can make a good show. I'm not sure it'll be Dune.
That towel sounds disgusting though.
'Attorneys General' and 'Majors General' would indicate otherwise.

This is very inspiring. I too am young and been in the work force for several years, but unlike the other comments in this thread I am
not settled down as an older student returning to school.

I am willing to give up a high paying salary to return back to school as a PhD student and I am
not tied down with a mortgage or anything else.

I find mathematics simply too interesting to not learn at the highest level. Working in industry will simply not teach me the material I want to learn. I’m considering going back for either a PhD in Math or a math heavy PhD in CS. I read math textbooks for fun and worked with tutors to ensure my proofs are done correctly. I can do this for hours on end without external motivation. I taught myself a lot of math and can see myself doing this as a career. I want to do research.

Most people my age say the same things in the comment sections in this thread (tied down to a mortgage, make too much money to return). I’m glad generalizations like these don’t apply to me and can’t wait to get back to school
Often more than that. During the dissertation phase 16 hour days almost every day can be common.

It is brutal. It can be worth it, but it is brutal.

Living in SF, I’m always impressed that people stop so quickly to let you pass. Doesn’t happen that much in France. But also: streets in France are much narrower so it’s easier to just jay walk.
Agreed but I don’t think it has to be exactly like the book it just has to tell a good story. That’s a lot easier to do for Dune than Foundation.
No one has a freedom to not be offended. It they did, then it would be impossible to have free speech. As there is no way to know if your speech won't offend everyone.
Good start. Keep at it!
I would recommend reading about stoicism and mindfulness. For me they felt like those things that are obvious but are super helpful to see explicitly stated. And have helped me learn to enjoy life more and set priorities for where/with whom I spend my most precious resource, my time.
I updated the title and added the date. Thanks for pointing this out!

You can control iMessage via Screen Time for kids via an allow list. My kids iPad only allows FaceTime and messages from grandparents, aunts, and uncles.

YTKids is full of trash and ads with no way to moderate. I’m thinking about starting a video library app for $4.99/mo that has curated age appropriate educational video content for kids. How many HN parents would be interested in something like that?

Hi I'm Shane and I've been working as a Software Engineer for just over 10 years. Most of my career has been focused on developing web applications within the health space. I'm interested primarily on working on applications that improve healthcare, but I am also open to other opportunities that have a positive impact on society. I'm currently looking for work in the United States.
The biggest one most people from India might experience is tap water - drinking it takes getting used to. The idea that tap water isn’t safe to drink unless it’s treated in some way is ingrained. And when you start drinking the tap water, it takes a while to get used to the taste (charcoal filters can help).

The author hasn’t started driving a car yet, but when they do they’ll discover that the rules of the road are actual rules, not guidelines.

Lastly, electricity is always available although that might not be surprising to someone from a wealthy, urban background in India.
I'm working full-time on polishing both SaaSHub & LibHunt. Both platforms are focussed on software alternatives - one of them on software products, the later on open-source software projects.

...and I'm building an RSS reader on the side. In fact, it's already working, but it needs some improvements before being presentable to a wider audience.
What's cool here is if you can make FizzBuzz go 55GB/s then you have the skill needed to make a whole bunch of other stuff go that speed too. My personal favorites are that Intel architecture lets us do population count, polynomial division, and eight tap filters at that speed too, which is wonderful.
Might actually work, also 24 and a bit clueless.
Agreed. On my journey to some sort of personal meaning I ended up going through psychology, physical sciences, philosophy & meditation - roughly in that order with poetry and literature interspersed…

But understanding life has, in my experience, been similar to the hermeneutic circle: to understand a part, you must understand the whole, and to understand the whole, you must understand the parts…

That is: the entry point is here - learn about the world and about how humans think about and perceive it. Start anywhere, but start.

*edit: I forgot to add also history. It also helps to shed light on the different meanings people have discovered over time.
No one learned anything from Game of Thrones.

The show was absolutely amazing when it could follow the books. The definitive show everyone talked about. The moment the books ran out it started to go downhill. And when they couldn't easily extrapolate from the books the show fell apart completely. The showrunners and writes for the show weren't good enough to make Game of Thrones on their own. No offence, but that takes a lot of skill and luck. They were good enough to adapt it though.

There's a reason why people love the Foundation. Why we read the books almost 80 years later. And it's not because of the title or character names (which is all the Apple show keeps).

The creators of this show are extremely arrogant. They think they could have done better than Asimov given the setting. So they threw away the thing people loved and replaced Asimov's work with their own. Well, clearly they couldn't do better. The show is a boring disjointed mess of random scifi tropes.

Hardin is now a "warden"!? Literally, the character with one of the most memorable sayings in all of literature "violence is the last refuge of the incompetent" is now all about violence. That's nothing less than a betrayal of the source material.
I was commenting on the responses though, of "I'm so inspired". People are treating it as if the person has pulled off deathbed salvation, thankfully earning access to the eternal status of "PhD haver" in time.
Yeah, API can be fast, depending on what you are requesting.
