Single device computing with different user paradigms would be possible or even desirable with such a system, just plug into a USB-4/Thunderbolt dock and away you go; Instantly you’re in Mac OS able to do more than is currently possible on iOS/iPadOS.

This to some extent is possible now, on many Android flagships it’s possible to run a desktop environment, but getting actual Mac OS and it’s software catalogue would be far more desirable than what’s currently available on those Android systems.

Getting this CPU to run in a phone form factor would be a serious game changer - this increase in horsepower and homogenization between the two platforms would make it so this would be a major selling point: “The best of iOS and Mac OS, on one device”.
Why not create api endpoint and charge mild cost for that data? You’ll make money instead of spending it.

Off topic: it's always surprised me that Microsoft never released an Online/Cloud version of Visio.
Hope this is not off-topic but I just want to say that Kyriakos (the OP) is a great guy. He gave up some of his time earlier this week to help me and my co-founder prep for our YC interview.

We didn't know him before this so I can only conclude it was a genuinely kind act from someone looking to give back to the community.

All the best and good luck with Terra!
Oh I think it will be gladly accepted by unvaccinated folk. The reason being is most unvaccinated people don’t believe it isn’t effective, they don’t like being forced to protect themselves by a bunch of moral busybodies.

I just accepted as soon as we saw that covid was spreading so quickly, welp I’m gonna get that. I figured I wouldn’t be that affected by it and wasn’t.

Our parents said, well if I get it I get it, and if I die, I die, now let me see my grandkids. When the vaccine came out they were like sweet I’ll get it, can we stop these stupid mask wearing and social distancing crap. No, we can’t. So now us younger folk who aren’t afraid of covid aren’t getting vaccinated because we’re being forced to, and they’re going to keep up all the stupid rules like wearing masks everywhere anyways.

An anti viral drug that is this effective gives even less reason to have any mandates around vaccines, so unvaccinated people will cheer this.

That is not the motivation. The motivation is to develop better interfaces for mathematical concepts. In the same way as Arabic numerals are better interfaces than Roman numerals.
In high security and solitary confinement there are guards that will have to deal with them, and the inmates are afforded rights like visitation or recreation where they can gain contraband, make shanks, extort and assault inmates and other guards.

Inmates will pretend to or legitimately damage the cell or themselves to get guard attention and then assault the guards.

Study these issues further and you will find it's not simply a matter of putting someone in a single cell by themselves and now that's it, they can never harm anyone again.

There are elaborate criminal schemes that occur inside of correctional institutions.

Eventually, society will have exhausted every recourse in attempting to accommodate this person, and I say not to be sarcastic, but to present you something to think about, would you welcome a known serial killer into your home since you are so against killing them and there's no place left to put them? How much do you expect others to suffer and sacrifice for one criminal and your own perceived social justice?

Really dislike this whole "East" vs "West", but fwiw Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, India, etc. are often already lumped in with the "West", in terms of sharing "Western" values of democracy and human rights, and having achieved first world economies through "Western" capitalism. "West" doesn't even make sense when it's basically what all the first world countries are regardless of geography.

Pretty much the same story in South Carolina. Outside retail workers, mask usage in my hyper local area is about 2%. Life has been basically completely normal since June 2020.
If you need to hack the physical layer of a protocol to identify a phone, you are doing something very wrong.

I guess any wireless channel will have the same vulnerability, but your phone already identifies itself on a huge variety of ways with much more standard interfaces.

By the way, you are already tracked countrywards. The only questions are if your phone operator is allowed to keep the data and whether it does.
> I guess 5 miles difference magically makes COVID much more contagious.

No, 5 miles means you have a different government with a different policy response. (The difference itself doesn't justify either side.)

That's just inherent in the existence of political borders.
The JVM doesn't, it starts in tens of milliseconds. But many popular Java frameworks take seconds to start (i believe mostly because they make heavy use of reflection and classpath scanning). You can write fast-starting Java apps, but you have to stray away from the beaten path to do it.
That's the problem - "even if you get COVID".

At the start of pandemic we could have hoped that it will pass in half a year, in a year or so. Now we know that it is probably here to stay.

So eventually you will get COVID.

Depending on how long has passed after your vaccine, what variation of virus you will get, how old you are and etc will depend if it is more like 5% or 1% or so.

In my office I have 200 or so colleagues. Imagine having 4-5 funerals at the company because of this illness.

Usually when gnome doesn't start up in arch it is due extensions which are not supported either gnome or arch. But you usually find them in AUR, which fix your issues quite quickly.
I haven't had any issues with gnome 3 in arch since they move to it, apart from extensions and a couple of things not well integrated in Wayland+gnome. Said that, it has been much more a nightmare for me to install packages in docker images of Ubuntu.

I try to keep it pretty simple. I use Karabiner for two specific keyboard alterations (swapping : and ;, and mapping cmd+esc to cmd+` for my keyboard without a dedicated ` key). I also use iTerm instead of the built-in terminal. That's about it, at least recently. I do have Rectangle installed but I don't really use it.

Well, I also use Camo so that I can use my iPhone as a webcam, but I'll probably buy a decent webcam soon because I don't want to keep paying the ongoing subscription. (Why is everything a freaking subscription these days ...)

I certainly agree that Taiwan is not a Provence.

However, it is indeed historically and factually a province of China. This is actually internationally recognised and that's why in 1945 it was retroceded by Japan to the Republic of China, where it remains.

If you want to nit-pick I will grant you that between 1683 and 1887 it was part of Fujian province rather that being an administrative province in its own right.

> This is the equivalent of a bunch of Americans moving to Canada and after a couple of generations America saying “let’s call Canada a state”

No, this is equivalent to Americans moving to Hawaii and calling it a state...

And in fact, China took over Taiwan to counter Europeans who were seizing all the land they could all over the world, and tried to seize Taiwan as well.

> At no point in history has china ever ruled over Taiwan.

Formally it did between 1683 and 1895, and then it has been since 1945.
Sounds like youre using the wrong tool for the task at hand. However, it also sounds like you've never personally experienced the ~23 minutes of flight time and the amount of ground that can be covered. It's way more impressive than you are dismissing.
yes vaccination 300% (i.e. single, second, and third booster dose when ready!) Drugs that have anti-biologic properties are never good for your body, neither is allowing symptoms to fully manifest before taking drugs. People should still get the vaccines. The drugs are a backup in case the virus still overwhelms your immune system or causes it to overreact.
It really really depends on where you are. E.g. in my country it's almost like "normal". But that's not what you think. People just don't follow restrictions, people don't wear masks, abuse vaccination (simply skip or even buy fake vaccination certificate to fulfill government / employer requirements). The only difference from "normal" is increased workload on hospitals and daily news "over thousand people died today from covid-19".

When it's absolutely unbearable for healthcare system, government also introduces soft lockdown where restaurants / cafes / public places are closed. Then everything goes back to "normal".

I really don't see how it can be 100% normal next year. At least in here.

Not teaching calculus in secondary schooling is not lowering standards if it replaced with something equally or more important.

The trouble is that the new medications probably don't work by the time you're in the ICU with Covid. I'm not sure it was tested with this one specifically, but at least one of the recently-approved medications was previously trialled on ICU patients and showed no benefit - they had to do another study giving it to people who hadn't been hospitalized yet to get any useful reduction in deaths, and there's some reason to think this is an inherent limitation of drugs that try and reduce viral replication. This study only seems to cover patients who haven't been hospitalized at the point when they start the treatment.
Great tool, but I find the name quite strange. To me it's incredibly evocative of the 90s.

For schools already offering Calculus, offering support to outliers simply means moving them to the Calculus class when they are ready. For other schools it means allowing students to get high school credit from college courses.

In the case of some Californian schools, over half their math faculty may already be Calculus teachers, and in the incoming junior high, over half the students may be on track to take Calculus. We should not think of students with the potential to reach Calculus as outliers.
> Something that occurs to me is that most of us have a poor grasp of why we even teach school math

One of my favorite math courses was a college class that focused on concepts - technically not an education class but intended for those in education majors. It covered 5th-8th grade math and showed me the why of so many things I had just taken for granted previously, and I'm sure if math was taught that way it would be much better remembered.

Of course, it could still be argued over whether math should be intended for practical use or not, but I think it's important that math be taught from (at least one of) a conceptual basis, or a historical basis (eg. [0] on the creation/discovery of imaginary numbers - it explains why they were needed, as well as interesting historical background).

Do you apply random security patches signed by your distro maintainers?
Right, that it is compatible to itself does not sound particular noteworthy. Lots of language eco-systems have that. That's also why many languages (like C, C++, JavaScript, Java, Ada, Common Lisp, ISLISP and Scheme) have actual language standards with, where there is a high focus on protecting investments.
I thought the point of the bloomberg article was that car emissions are only half the story? More c02 is made in the manufacturing of the car than is made in emissions during the life of the car. And EVs are worse here due to the high carbon cost of the batteries. So if all you care about is net carbon, then it is better to stick with your current car, whatever that may be.

Now personally I dont like exhaust emissions from ICE cars. People living near busy roads have more health problems and a shorter life expectancy. However, my choice would be to get rid of private cars alltogether, not shift the pollution to another region. When I am king, I will start by enforcing a 1 car per household limit, except those with special needs. And eventually replace all private cars with EV public transport and bikes.

The Covert Reach of NSO Group (2020)
In my trade school, we had this class devoted exclusively to calculating things fast in memory. The exam consisted of running a bunch of calculations as fast as possible without writing down anything other than answer.

It is interesting that you can learn to calculate a lot of useful stuff in memory and there is a lot of tricks and you can get quite proficient at it after one semester of classes and some training.

But once I left this school it was completely unusable skill. It sort of helps me estimate things, a little bit? I guess? But I also carry a phone with me at all times and I have a powerful calculator on my desk just within reach.

A skill that is not being used deteriorates, and now I can no longer multiply 5 digit numbers in memory and I use calculator for anything that involves more than 3 digits. And I don't feel like I lost anything.

There are so many useful skills to learn. If you want to spend time, learn something else that is more useful. And if you don't want to learn something useful learn something that gives you joy or impresses people.
Nobody, and I mean nobody, genuinely believes that COVID-19 can't be spread when social distancing measures are perfectly observed. The 1.5m/6ft distance was chosen based on both epidemiological models that show statistical decreases in contagion and the political reality that people (understandably) get very upset the more you ask them to stay away from other people.

The rest of your post doesn't reflect any government position that I'm currently aware of. Both my local government and the CDC encouraged me to go outside, while maintaining distancing, after the initial lockdown.
Not everyone is eligible for a booster shot.
If you take an antiviral like this, do you still develop a good immune response to reinfection?

I wonder because almost everyone who might end up needing this isn't vaccinated (based on hospitalization rates) so I hope that at the end they also end up having some immunity to catching it again at least.

In the moment of course it is better to use than not.
I don't see how that's practical. If a project requires "contributing back" and then doesn't accept the changes, the fork can't exist?
> Turn off all sounds, period, only do vibrations

I hate vibrations. I used to get PVS[0] a lot when I was naive and had all the default options turned on.

I agree with you on disabling notifications though. It's something many people don't consider. Notifications are more consistent with a 'nag' than a notification.

Security will play a huge role in obsoleting software development as a job.

Monkeys in chairs papering over generic CPU design is pushing chip makers to consider silicon designed to workload spec; input parameter set, let it go.

Chips are now undergoing their great decoupling like software. It’ll take a while as manufacturing process pivots but rather than 8 generic cores we’ll eventually have SOCs per application. Software will be pushed to the UI layer alone for users, and whatever industry needs to boot strap manufacturing.

Frankly I’m looking forward to it; I can’t think of anything software companies have provided humanity that will stand the test of time, except making us all learn their new preferences.

When you have an LLVM frontend, what you generally do is have your driver run the optimization and code generation steps itself using the LLVM APIs rather than using opt/llc binaries to drive this step. That way, you don't need the LLVM binaries, just the libraries that you statically link into your executable.

For example, all of the code in clang to do this is located in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/clang/lib/Cod...

I come to Hacker News to help mitigate against the Gell-Mann amnesia effect.

The downfall of big corporate media is that they have not realized that they no longer can sway the public with falsehoods or falsehoods by omission. This is why corporate journalists want to have censorship on tech platforms and have news "vetted" by discredited "fact" checkers.

The caliphate series and Syria chemical attacks hurt the NY Times as much as their fake news of Iraq WMDs did. Fake news is up against the truth like never before. This is why corporate journalists want to be shielded from transparency.
Right with you there.

I had a particularly bad time not so long ago, when a customer's site - a shop - was brought to its knees because someone, probably a competitor, hired some scraper-company of some sort to scrape every product and price.

The scraper would systematically go through every single product page.

And by scraper, I mean - 100's of them. All at the same time, using the old trick of 1 scraper requesting 3 or 4 product pages at a time then pausing for a while.

They used umpteen different IP address blocks from all over the globe - but mainly using OVH vps IP address blocks from France.

Now, maybe if they'd just thrown, say, 5 or 10 of the scraper "units" at the site, no one would have noticed in amongst Googlebot (which they wanted to use anyway because they are using Google Shopping to try to bring in more sales).

But no. This shower of arseholes threw 100's of scraper "tasks" at the site. They got greedy.

Now, the site was robust enough to handle this load - barely - which was massive, however, having to do that /and/ also handle normal day-to-day traffic? Nah. The bastards got greedy and like you I spent a few days unfucking the damage they were causing.

Seriously, I hate scrapers. I hate the people who make scrapers. I hate their lack of ethics. Fuck those guys.
TBH, opt-in statistics would be interesting, so you can say "Most popular baby name of 2021 was...".
