I think u are mistaken about Americans thinking it is an imposition on liberty. We all know the real reason why american politicians don't want that. It is because people who don't have ID vote democrats in the hopes they'll get an ID.

Yes, but it's very buggy, and tends to drop both connections and characters all the time. If you're doing heavy terminal work you need an external terminal.

EDIT: actually I realised you were probably talking about running headless, whereas I was thinking of an integrated terminal. I don't believe vscode can run headless.

While I don't think it's something I want, plenty of people like the idea of having 6+ monitors which take up the space of less than one (at the expense of having to wear it on your face). They're also marketing it as being useful for remote work, so instead of taking your laptop with you with one screen, you take this headset and you've got your whole multi monitor desktop with you. Bit more clunky because you need to carry a separate mouse + keyboard (keeb with a trackball/trackpad on it), but for certain people that's worth it.

The original title of the post was "Signatures: the secret behind Modern End-to-End Encryption" but it seems that HN filtered "the secret behind".

Incompetently.

nope. European Union ( Germany which translate to USA) dictate France what to do using European laws. National politics and President Power in Europe all lean toward the same thing, new social measures that affect only a fraction of the population (same-sex marriage, positive discrimination). On the social side this is nice and good for those people. On the nation scale it doesn't change anything about average income, industries going abroad while pushing to welcome more immigrants that become jobless due to the loss of our industries, the 1% getting more and more of the cake.
Data point: I've been using Emacs for about 5 hears. I've got a setup that works very well for me but every time I open my .emacs I hate Emacs lisp even more. Decided to give VSCode a go, my take is:

- It's really slow (noticable keyboard latency) and this bums me out.

- Haven't yet got into a proper VSCode git plugin but I'm pretty sure when I do I'll still miss Magit.

- The only place where I really miss Emacs' ultra flexibility is the window management. VSCode's model is pretty simplistic and seems dumb to me.

On the whole with my hatred of ELisp I think the relative inflexibility of VSCode is a wash, especially when you factor in how easy it was to get started. But it does make me sad to know if I stick with it I'll never escape the slowness.

Clearly you've not met many sign language speakers. Or Italians.

Most hard realtime control systems don't use FPGAs but hard processors. I don't relaly believe those can't achieve as good timing control as a pdp11.

EDIT: From the FPGA vendor:

> Double+ speed Osprey Co-Processor. Occupies one ISA/EISA PC slot. Writable control store, FPGA implementation of PDP-11 architecture with 4 MBytes of tightly coupled, zero wait-state memory. Includes FPJ11® compatible hardware floating point. Performance equivalent twice the DCJ-11® and 100%; of FPJ-11. On-card x86 microprocessor rapidly processes "virtual" I/O instructions. This card is used for Osprey/PC applications where all applicable I/O devices are emulated on the PC by Osprey software. Includes standard environment support for MS-DOS® V6.2.2. Windows/NT® environment support available.

So, highly unlikely that such a system using standard x86 PCs with all their SMBIOS traps and other garbage is able to emulate IO could possibly drive external IOs with better precision and accuracy than a proper real time SOC.

Cycle accuracy may be a requirement in the processor such that legacy software is guaranteed to run the same, but they almost certainly are not doing cycle accurate IOs if they're going across an ISA bus to a DOS or NT PC to be emulated there.
It's being used in the singular sense.
(TL;DR; Zig isn't simpler than Rust from an implementation perspective, quite the opposite. And the respective compiler size is a good illustration of that point)

> Simply because it's simple

But by what metric? For instance, why do you consider comptime being simpler than macros? Macros are a dedicated tool built for one specific job (compile-time pre-processing). Comptime means re-using the same syntax for both compile-time and run-time execution. Yes it is pretty elegant, and I like it but it is more complex that the Rust model because you now have a tool that needs to work with both cases.

Same async, Rust has async functions and regular function, Zig has functions that are automagically coerced to the right type by the compiler. Is it ergonomic, probably (but not always), but it's much more complex to implement under the hood.

Last but not least: memory safety, Zig's goal is to achieve a reasonable level of memory safety by using a collection of built-in sanitization tools. Those tools are much more complex than the borrow-checker (which rely on 2 simple rules: move semantic and shared XOR mutable)and for the most part they don't even exist!

Zig's goal is developer ergonomics, and it's really cool to see radical experimentations in that space (and as I said, what zig has done with regard to cross-compilation is inspirational for every language author on this planet) but it's not simplicity. Otherwise, the Zig compiler probably wouldn't be 120% bigger than the rust one right?! (Rustc has 1.6 million loc[1], Zig has 3.5[2], more than twice as much.

Isn't this the reason for mass-induced time-dilation? When you add more mass (computational complexity) into a region it runs slower, to the point of being removed completely from the sim, hidden behind an event horizon and described by just a couple of parameters.

They literally have to make their own hardware. The only VR hardware that supports Linux officially is the Valve Index and the HTV Vive line. Everything else barely functions, with the only hope being from community efforts (which are not stable experiences yet at all, far from it). The Index and the Vive aren't suitable for people that just want to use this software, because they're expensive and bulky.
How do you propose they do that? For example, take your typical steel-and-glass skyscraper, such as the One World Trade Center. How can the inhabitants make the exterior less hostile? Or affect it at all?

And isn't the complete absence of any kind of style, color, or pleasant features in general, an imposition of a specific view in itself?

And finally, is what you describe even a problem? How many people living in old Art Deco skyscrapers are miserable and trying to leave due to having a century-old style imposed upon them? Or people living in historic neighborhoods? Whereas featureless gray cubes "free them to bring their own life and color"?
I imagine the great drought would have happened with or without the British empire.
I'd add on to this: when you listen to a piece of music, you subconsciously anticipate what will come next, and you get enjoyment from the way the piece meets or surprises your expectations. This plays a big part in the perception of musicality.

Jazz artists play with their listeners' expectations just like artists in any other genre of music, but people who listen to a lot of jazz have developed a set of expectations that others don't have. Jazz listeners find jazz musical and viscerally enjoyable in the same way listeners of other genres enjoy their music - it's not (only) an abstract intellectual appreciation, which I get the impression a lot of people suspect.

To me, a better analogy than reading Shakespeare in a language you don't understand is watching a sport you don't know the rules to. We're both watching the same people make the same moves, but if you don't know the rules, you don't know what to expect, and every move looks random and purposeless. Someone who knows the rules watches the same thing and is able to enjoy the interplay between the expected and unexpected, to appreciate the skill and the moments of brilliance and drama, on what I think few would claim is not a visceral level.

I was thinking of learning sign language, but what's stopping me is the impression that it varies across countries or regions (one of the hints is that ASL stands for "American Sign Language", I think we have something else here in Europe).

> Unlike SQL, which can only manipulate normalized data, JSONiq natively works on the entire normalization spectrum: textual, heterogeneous, deeply nested

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but isn't SQL perfectly capable of acting on denormalized data? We often talk about the degree of normalization that a RDMS has. Perhaps this is in reference to nested data structures (which would normally be represented in RDMS via FK relations), but even there it's implementation dependent.

This is the first time I've learned of this. How it compares to PyPy [1]:

> PyPy is an implementation of Python with its own JIT. The biggest difference compared to Pyjion is that PyPy doesn't support all C extension modules without modification unless they use CFFI or work with the select subset of CPython's C API that PyPy does support. Pyjion also aims to support many JIT compilers while PyPy only supports their custom JIT compiler.

Apparently it's originally a Microsoft project, and it requires .NET. The project already exists for a few years, but it looks like they've gained net performance improvements over CPython only the past few months [2].

>Some lockdown policies directly affect your 'need for stuff'

I think this was the root cause of the toilet paper shortage. People who normally spend a large portion of the day at the office were now spending that time at home. There was a popular viral video at the time of a man driving around on a forklift in a warehouse full of toilet paper laughing about the shortage, but it was all commercial toilet paper not what you would use at home. Anecdotally I noticed a correlation between the level of traffic on the freeway and the amount of toilet paper on store shelves. When the freeways were empty the shelves were bare and as traffic started picking back up the shelves started replenishing.

I've been wondering the same thing for a while. The closest iteration of this I've come across so far is Session (https://getsession.org)

It routes messages through an Onion/TOR-like network of nodes that others volunteer to run. In return for running those nodes, they generate the Oxen cryptocurrency, similar to how mining Bitcoin works.

This way, it's not fully centralized like WhatsApp/Telegram/etc, but also solves the issues of devices directly communicating, like what happens when the app isn't running on the phone.
