The recent 3Blue1Brown video on "How a Mandelbrot set arises from Newton’s work" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqbZpur38nw) made me think how, similarly to how different areas of the Mandelbrot set represent some halting property of the given complex number and the iteration z_n+1 = z_n²+c, programming languages could be visualized.

Chris Barker's Zot http://web.archive.org/web/20200414141014/http://www.nyu.edu... is a turing complete system in which every binary string is a valid program. Input data is just appended as binary string to it. So the two dimensional "program+input => number of steps before halting" space can be visualized similarly without having blanks for syntax errors: https://i.imgur.com/ZGeZBBa.png

So not just mathematical computable spaces can be visualized this way, but also programming ones - another part of the Ruliad.

Can someone explain why sibling comment is flagged into oblivion?

Is there any sound evidence that meritocracy and "equity" are compatible? If not, I don't see why sibling comment's position is false, and I don't see how it breaks site guidelines either.
Normally I’d agree with you but I think this article topic is fair. FB is a high profile company that has been an aspirational employer for many people (esp outside the valley) over several years. For that to change is interesting.
while this might be true from standard texts perspective, its not how it works in practice.

>If you really want to confuse those unfamiliar with boolean attributes, `contenteditable="false"` is editable

Strong agree on this. Whenever I find my shoulders getting tight with stress, a walk outside might not fix everything, but it sure makes a difference.

I would recommend Open Data Structures: https://opendatastructures.org/

It's available for free online, or if you'd like you can buy a physical copy. It's got 14 chapters that take you through a variety of data structures, introduces you to the theory behind them, and teaches you the basics of analyzing them.

I've done many of the exercises from this book, and found them useful for learning the topic.
The author could have ASKED some women this question. Then she could have written about their actual answers, maybe also comparing their answers to the answers of a few men.
Well, feel free to substitute something legal or more abstract, like tentacle porn.

But, I did it exactly because it's a real-world example of near-universally abhorrent speech that I don't think they would support on their own platform.

But, the deplatformed and other types who are recently lamenting "the great fall of free speech" always offer the argument "who gets to decide what speech is acceptable?", which is a gratingly disingenuous position that pretends we don't have standards and laws, etc. as a society. And further pretends that they themselves believe there should be no limitations on free speech ("unfettered").

We've always had deciders. These people just don't like the recent decisions. But, if that's not the case, then the only way to prove it is to truly allow all speech on their own platform and telegraph that intention by openly supporting the speech rights of the most abhorrent people in society.
bruh, this is the whole “boomer” management style. constantly implying your staff could do more, while cooly restricting praise and autonomy to just poison your org.

"Algorithms Illuminated" by Roughgarden. Very accessible. Reads like a novel not a textbook. Has exercises throughout the chapter to test knowledge. I recommend it over your suggestion that you want a textbook. This book will serve you much better.
Ask HN: Large Photo Library Sharing?
Does anyone have positive experience sharing tens of thousands of photos? If so, how do you do it?

My partner and I are Mac users, and I pay for iCloud. So my 34k photos/videos are backed up automatically. But unfortunately, it is not possible to share an entire photo library (other than literally sharing the one iCloud account, which is not an option). Albums can be shared, but only up to 5k photos per album.

OneDrive, which I also pay for, has photo sharing it seems. But the UI for viewing seems very limited.

I pay for Tresorit as well, but it likewise doesn't have a photo-viewer specific UI for guests that I share with.

In the past I've tried other systems like SmugMug, but most seem to fall over with large numbers of photos. Perhaps some have improved, and maybe someone here has good experience...?

I'm willing to pay another ~ $100/yr for a proper solution.

Suggestions?
On the one hand, is this surprising? Once you get as big as FB, it is inevitable that it is no longer the same kind of work environment as it was when it was a hot startup or a new titan. FB is not new. It is no doubt changing on account of that, because the way the world reacts to it is changing. They wanted to start their own currency, which many startups do, but because they were FB, the governments of the world made it clear they would not be allowed to succeed in that. When you are big, you cannot "move fast and break things" without triggering a much larger backlash from the world around you, and this inevitably means you don't move as fast.

On the other hand, I don't doubt that they are going to have to worry more about work-life balance and things like that, because they cannot just use their status as the new titan to recruit with (because they're no longer new). So, like many no-longer-new tech titans before them, they will have to change how they recruit and retain. FB is now more like Microsoft, IBM, or Intel than it is like the FB of old.
> >It's good. And by good I mean terrible.

> Is it good or terrible? Does the word "terrible" refer to horror movies and sinister plots?

There is a whole thing about people watching terrible horror movies and enjoying them because they are terrible. So I guess that references that.

Mercantilism is certainly dead as a door nail. I can point to all the specific policies recommended by the mercantilists, but I think the most important thing is that mercantilism was about hoarding gold bullion. That is absolutely not the basic economic goal of many (if any) nations right now.

At least on construction equipment (agricolture may be different) the point is not only about costs (and frequence) of repairs, but rather on machinery down time or production loss.

I have managed in the past some high production sites (road tunnels) with a specific sequence of operations and having a jumbo or a wheel loader or an excavator down meant severe delays not only in excavation, but on all the following works (concrete pouring, impermeabilization) and on all the "ancillary" works (ventilation, electric cabins moving, etc.).

One of the machine at the excavation front broken for more than a few hours would have meant literally days of delays, complex scheduling modifications, etc., a total mess.

Yeah we had to hack around this Qt bug https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-91071 but it's fixed now.
I've also used Server 2019 on a desktop and it's pretty solid. A couple of pointers:

- If you're considered a "student" by any means, you probably have access to an institutional email address that gives you access to Azure for Students. Through the Azure site, you can download an ISO for any LTSC edition of Windows Server (including Datacenter) and get a valid license key. This is a great way of saving money and avoiding sketchy key resellers.

- Driver support is basic out of the box. The PC I used for Windows Server has an AMD graphics card, which normally comes with GPU drivers as soon as you install a consumer version of Windows. This doesn't happen automatically with Windows Server. When you download the GPU drivers from AMD, the installer will detect that you're running Server and error out, but you can tell Device Manager to install drivers from your C:\AMD folder and it will work fine (minus the fancy GUI control panel, which is arguably bloatware itself). Something similar should work for Nvidia cards.

- Normal Win32 applications work great (I used Chrome, Office, IntelliJ, and a number of other everyday apps and they worked perfectly). However, you don't have access to the Windows Store, so installing UWP applications that aren't part of the base system (i.e., anything other than Settings, pretty much) is a pain.

As presented here, his theory is that the careers of younger scientists depend on the qualitative judgments of older scientists.

The field is convinced the judgments of older scientists are systemically, oppressively wrong on matters of sex and race.

So the only acceptable judgment is criticism of the qualitative judgments of older scientists. He can only be un-shunned by criticizing scientists like himself.

While this is a trend across the board since the pandemic, for Facebook it is particularly troublesome because it's deeper rooted than at other companies. On an almost daily basis it is becoming more and more public knowledge that Facebook is in more legal trouble than it can handle and that the company no longer has much good standing in society (which, for a "social" media company, is a bit of a problem). Young people are not stupid, no one wants to work at a company with no future, even if it still pays well. The root of all these problems is, of course, the toxicity of Zuck.

Google keeps a large suite of in-house built, enormously useful products alive and still manages to move them forward incrementally. FB has done nothing useful for me since I signed up in 2004. Given that, why would I care if they made a video about the incredible things they will do in the future? If I'm to believe they will deliver, shouldn't they have a track record by now?

And Google has led in AI for the past decade so I'm not sure how you got the impression that FB is doing and Google is just sitting on cash. Looks exactly opposite to me.
As observed already in another comment, I erred on the contenteditable attribute, that it’s not actually a boolean attribute like the best-known one disabled; rather, it’s one of the handful of tristate attributes. But take one that’s actually a boolean attribute, and my remarks are completely correct. As for contenteditable, I’d still recommend writing `contenteditable` rather than `contenteditable="true"` (which two are equivalent).

> The Department of Energy's Carbon Negative Earthshot seeks to slash the cost of carbon removal to $100 a tonne by the end of the decade

At 40 gigatonnes a year, that would be $4 trillion, which is about 5% of Gross World Product.[0] It's probably still cheaper to avoid emitting the CO2 in the first place, but that does put an upper bound on the cost of reaching net zero.

Of course, no one wants to take a voluntary 5% pay cut, but that figure (if it's correct) does make it harder to argue that "we can't afford" to do anything about CO2 levels, or that tackling climate change requires us all to stop flying or heating our homes.

Are engineers really the ones driving at the company? I think that has not been true in "the industry" for a decade now. Marketing, upper-management are the ones steering the ships now — engineers just row.

I think you're massively underestimating the lengths of work-related cruelty that happens here (everywhere except Japan). Obviously there are varying types of cruelty, but an Amazon warehouse worker who is not allowed to go to the restroom past their time limit or an office worker who puts in ridiculous overtime to fulfill the expectations their boss "subtly" gaslighted into them are subject to the exact same situation you're describing.

I don't think this has anything to do with Japan, their work culture just shows what capitalism does to everyone more explicitly. They say the quiet part out loud.

This is an entirely subjective take, but in the last few years FB seem to have evolved from one the coolest places for an engineer to being at the bottom of FAANG.

the entire reason for a companys' existence is to make money

This is incorrect. There are many reasons a company can exist other than to make money. The company I work for, for example, does not have making money as its primary goal.

There's nothing wrong with a company making money. The problem is people who believe that companies should only make money, or make all the money they can at whatever cost.

There are actually people on HN who think companies have some legal obligation (usually under the cliché of "shareholder maximization") to do anything to make money. This is false.

Companies are created by and for humans. They should work for humans.

> Also, "knowledge assimilation stack"? Surely there is a less pretentious name for this.

These are my reasoning behind the title, If you have better suggestions let me know.

Knowledge: Since there is difference between comments which have information vs comments which have knowledge from experience. Since I wish to save and recall the latter it's knowledge.

Assimilation: an act, process, or instance of assimilating,
Assimilate: to learn (something) so that it is fully understood and can be used[1].

Stack: A common term (loosely based on data structures) used to define combination of software technologies used in an architecture to solve a problem.

I've also seen it happen more than often than I wish, but the issue in this case is more about skipping a common data access layer rather than usage of a shared data store. This would have been a problem in any system: even in a monolithic application, such lack of proper layer (and proper checks and verifications around data access) will always cause these issues.

> In many ways, the ruliad is a strange and profoundly abstract thing. But it’s something very universal—a kind of ultimate limit of all abstraction and generalization. And it encapsulates not only all formal possibilities but also everything about our physical universe—and everything we experience can be thought of as sampling that part of the ruliad that corresponds to our particular way of perceiving and interpreting the universe.

Bear in mind this is merely a postulate, it isn't at all proven. It's our ability to make concrete predictions that's limited by what's computational, not necessarily the behavior of the universe itself. On a more pragmatic level however we don't really have any good ways to theorize about behaviors of creation that are uncomputable. Nonetheless, we know uncomputable functions exist so it's absurd to axiomatically rule out the possibility that there might be physical behaviors described by them. Perhaps all physical behaviors are and we're forever stuck with more or less congruent computable approximations?
It depends how long you intend to live. If you live as long as humans did while evolving, you should stop learning when it is natural to. However, if you plan to live past your 40's, it would be a worthwhile investment to keep learning longer.

In addition, we live in a more rapidly changing world than our evolutionary ancestors did, which makes necessary to continue learning throughout our adult lives. e.g. I'll probably have to learn new JavaScript frameworks until the day I retire
