Eric Brandwine (VP/DE @ AWS) said publicly in 2019 that EC2 had never scheduled different tenants on the same physical core at the same time, even before we learned about things like MDS.

I had one. Primarily because I spent about 33% of my time at SNL (Sandia National Laboratories, not Saturday Night Live).

I was working with rad-hardened semiconductors in the context of weapons effects as well as natural space radiation.
Do you think the average user wants to see the thousands of movies on IMDB with one 10-star rating to be shown above The Godfather?

This is already done to a degree on most sites. The author is just describing a better possible way to do it.
pooling at all is still pretty much a hack. ideally resource management (and tuning) wouldn't revolve around the connection and actual connections would become as thin as possible
You can probably do something with optical communications through a thick, leaded glass window, depending on your containment needs.
While I also quite dislike the autoloading behavior of rails, in practice, I haven't found it to be abused too much in large rails projects. So let's say we take away autoloading, it is likely that mostly models code will need to deal with circular dependencies.

Meanwhile, in golang projects, within-package circular dependencies are happening blatantly everywhere, and somehow I don't see much complain about it.
Does fault matter? Whose responsibility is it?
"pry" is absolutely essential. I often prototype my code with a simple helper script that gives me a function to reload the relevant code, and just "live" in the pry prompt to explore the code as I add it.

It's the closest thing you get in Ruby to a Smalltalk environment.
The speed doesn't really change, it's just that you have to work that much harder to achieve it. In ECO mode I'd say you are going to get tired about twice as fast as you would at max assist.

The 500 km range in eco mode is something I never expect to even go near though it might be fun to once ride around IJsselmeer or so on a single charge.
Not necessarily objecting to the whole thread (I admit I didn't finish it), but I hate this style of argument where one makes a number of steps in the argument and they present a key "linchpin" of that argument as some sort of axiom, but with nothing to back it up:

> Think of the last time you had a bad night sleep. You feel bad the next day, but the next night if you sleep well, you'll feel fully recovered from that bad night. But when we spring forward, we often feel bad for weeks. Why does losing that hour have such a profound effect? It is because we are shifted into a state of permanent jet lag with the time change. Your circadian clock follows dawn. The dawn on March 13th in Calgary is at 6:53am, but on DST the next day it is at 7:51am.

(I emphasized the relevant sentence)

I certainly don't feel bad for weeks after the start of DST, I literally don't know what he's talking about. And, if anything, if I feel sleep deprived it's usually because I go to sleep later because I much enjoy having an extra hour of daylight in the evening.
Without changing the design too much, you could rearrange it like so to avoid renaming multiple times and still have the option to just "add another line":

# Rename all files in a directory
rn() {
rename \
-e "s/ /-/g" \
-e "s/_/-/g" \
-e "s/–/-/g" \
-e "s/://g" \
-e "s/\(//g" \
-e "s/\)//g" \
-e "s/\[//g" \
-e "s/\]//g" \
-e 's/"//g' \
-e "s/'//g" \
-e "s/,//g" \
-e "y/A-Z/a-z/" \
-e "s/---/--/g" \
-e "s/-‎--/--/g" \
*
}

Though I would at least take advantage of character classes to reduce the number of substitutions:

# Rename all files in a directory
rn() {
rename \
-e 's/[ _—]/-/g' \
-e 's/[:\(\)\[\]",]//g' \
-e "s/'//g" \
-e 'y/A-Z/a-z/' \
-e 's/--+/--/g' \
*
}

(I'm using the `rename` command provided by the `rename` Debian package, a.k.a `file-rename`. The options may vary if you're using a different version.)

It’s a great piece and this is a professional games industry consultancy —- one of the best.

The other comments objecting to $2k for “public data” are off base —- this is for studio execs who need context and dont have random blockchain devs sitting around to do “free” on chain analysis

Edit: Packy’s piece is great too but this one has newer data to comment on. Packy’s also selling stuff (his placed written ads and his substack), so there’s no real difference in “purity” there

Depends on how broadly you define the problem. My points here are not that there's a complete solution so much as there's straight forward steps that do a lot of good. There will definitely still be problems after solving these.

Yes, this is definitely a good point. There is an arms race like effect at work here, if you could de-escalate that lighter vehicles would be much better.
In order to play the game at all, you must own 3 axies, which currently cost about $350 total to purchase 3. This is one of the principal sources of new money entering the ecosystem, new players wanting to play the game and securing virtual livestock with which to play. Most players cannot afford this themselves, so there are "sponsors" in the developed world who buy them for them and loan them to these "scholars" in exchange for a cut.
Disagree with the premise that there's less room for major exciting changes. We're still using the same dumb grid-of-apps home screen on iOS, which has been nearly unchanged since its 2007 inception.

I refuse to believe that swiping through pages of icons or typing their names into a search box is the best we can do. Some day we'll get a radically new iOS.
You have an idealistic view of the USA that doesn’t seem founded in facts.

There absolutely are tax havens with laws especially designed to attract businesses by enabling them to avoid taxes prevalent in other states — look up Delaware and South Dakota.

The EU parliament is pretty boring and the legislative process is convoluted. But at least the EU isn’t locked in an endless two-party gridlock, and it’s not easily susceptible to be taken over by authoritarians. Do you remember how the last US president sent his supporters into Congress to prevent the certification of his successor, and the US parliamentarians had to hide in a basement? That kind of thing is simply unimaginable in Brussels.
Thanks for the response, I'm a sceptic when it comes to NFTs and that seems to be the general sentiment on HN as well

What's interesting to me is that you kind of confirm the main enticement for the game is the promise of earning money.

These types of games don't seem sustainable to me in the long run. What I keep asking myself is where is this money everyone playing is coming from? If it's new players or new inflows into crypto then it's basically a convoluted pyramid scheme, and I can't see how value is being created which can be constantly extracted and exchanged for real life goods

But maybe it's similar to people making a living like in the old days selling WoW gold or Runescape items or whatever? I don't know, the modern economy confuses me
Always charming.

that's not equivalent.

d.map(i => o[i] = i\*2)

Will produce a new array on top of mutated data, o, in the parent scope.

d.forEach(i => o[i] = i**2)

would be the one-to-one equivlent
That’s a good point. I think that’s a phase that we’ll go through during the development and it’s inevitable, but that’s just my opinion.
I don’t think discord eth integration is the best idea but this article is Just a virtue signal. Why would you bet your project against a technology? It’s analogous to refusing to use AI/ML because somewhere somehow someone is getting screwed.

For an even better example look at the different German states. Bavaria with its rich BMW factories versus Saarland where anybody who does not work in Luxembourg is
poor as a mouse. Same German population, same working culture and methods, but completely different outcomes.

One state is rich another one shows a deficit and there has
been no job creation. If the German model is so good why cant Germany reproduce it in every part of the country?

At the same time Volkswagen Autoeuropa an automotive assembly plant, located in the city of Palmela,
near Lisbon, showed higher productivity
than some sites in Germany.

The problem with "working culture" analysis is that
they miss the underlying processes, patterns
and local constrains most teams are forced to work it.
Some of that code has been running for a long time. A lot of the Perl toolchain still works on 5.8.1 (released Sept 2003).

https://metacpan.org/release/JHI/perl-5.8.1

Test::Simple still targets 5.6.2, which looks to have been released around the same time (November 2003).

Acoustic was also my first thought. Neutron generators are quite complicated and relatively delicate. Meanwhile acoustic transducers (e.g. piezo) are super simple and low power.
Take a break from regular music.

I for one am glad to see a company push back on blockchain technologies and their horrendous environmental impact. As an environmentalist in the computing space, it makes me so depressed to see our industry regress so much in environmental impact.
It's not my interpretation. It's the definition used by everyone in finance and accounting.

Intangible assets cannot be "hard".

Also, gold is not just a shiny rock. It can be made into electronic components, food, art, jewelry, and a huge variety of industrially-useful alloys.
Hopefully it still works as an attribute but my point is that you can (say) opt in to allowing more liberal use of FMA without (say) opting in to aggressive NaN assumptions
It's doubly hard to maintain boundaries if you actually enjoy the work you do. Too easy to come home and just keep doing it. Not the healthiest though. I think the blurring of work/personal time is a mixed bag. Sure my personal life gets interrupted occasionally, but there's also an expectation from many employers that you're going to be conducting more personal business during business hours too. In my jobs, I've typically been able to manage the work invading personal time downwards towards zero reasonably well while taking more advantage of (and appreciating) a more flexible business environment.
Paraphrasing: It doesn't matter how much shit gets piled on you, how little support you get, how stupid the deadlines are, or how bad the communication is, if you get visibly upset you lose.
Can you provide some image difference results between the reference images and the resulting super-resolution output? That would help to visualize what sort of structure, if any, is introduced by the super-resolution process.
>Why would you bet your project against a technology

strange question because obviously you should not shove every technology into every project. I think a lot of projects would be actually very well served by not jumping on the ML bandwagon and throwing significant resources at problems that can often be solved in simpler ways.

And not just for technical reasons but as Zulip has decided for ethical reasons. Just like crypto's mentioned impact on climate or lack of regulation ML often has negative impact on privacy, data ownership/collection, bias and so on.

I would very much be in favour of projects more strongly considering the negative impacts a technology choice can have.
Currently the plan is to transition to different game modes that are supposed to turn the ecosystem into a platform in its own right.

We discuss the viability of this in the report; in our opinion there are challenges down that route as well, ultimately you must create an ecosystem where more players are putting money in than expect to take it out. Anything could happen but what is on the roadmap currently seems like it needs a lot of work.

That's an interesting connection between Jupyter and Literate Programming. The difference being Jupyter-style notebooks also have the output of the code; in fact the source is often hidding.

Jupyter was inspired by Wolfram Notebooks, which uses "literate programming" as a term directly in their marketing materials. https://www.wolfram.com/notebooks/
I'm curious - do you genuinely not see any reason a Zulip user would want to ensure they could avoid having cryptocurrency features added to the product?
I am a fellow lawyer and I have known Neil for a long time now. He is very highly qualified and impressive in action. I think you'd be in safe hands.
Thank you for the help. I might be able to earn around 3000 euros (after taxes), would live in a smaller city, maybe close to Porto but wouldn't need to live in Porto itself, and not a lavish lifestyle by any means, just a comfortable life for the kids, no eating out much, no fancy car, etc. I keep thinking that I should wait until I can earn more, that 3000 might not be enough, but a friend who lived there for some time told me this is just my fear of not being able to provide my kids with a good life, and I guess he's right. I keep thinking it might not be enough for a comfortable life for them (again, not lavish/rich, just a good quality of life for them).
I'm sorry, I know it can come out that way, but I am a developer that uses both statically typed languages and happily use powerful IDEs with them, and I also develop in a Lisp (Clojure more specifically), almost to a perfect 50/50 split.

And I don't mean to say that you're a bad developer or not smart enough if you use an IDE. Of course you should use an IDE with Java or C# or C++. Those languages are all very good, and when paired with a good IDE can be quite productive. And even with a Lisp, you should and will want to use a powerful editor or IDE with good auto-complete, linting, jump to definitions, etc.

What I'm trying to say is that to be productive in a Lisp, it's a different learning curve.

You just can't come and say: "well I tried it a little bit, and I couldn't figure out how to do anything and I was really slow, so I just don't get the point of a REPL and I don't get why people claim it's a hugely productive tool."

I'm telling you why, it's like complaining that you type slower on a keyboard than you can write by hand for the first year of you using a keyboard. There's a learning curve.

You can't just say: "well I can't figure this out. Where is the IDE to help me with it? Where are the type definitions? Where is the compiler to guide me? I guess the Lispers are just full of it."

No, you didn't do what Lispers do. Lispers learn the language until those things are no longer a problem, and then they unlock a new found productivity combined with the ability to work inside a running program, quick iteration, being able to extend and mold the language to what is most efficient for you and your problem, etc.

It's 100% ok if you say that you don't feel it's necessary for you to go the extra mile to learn a Lisp properly. That's fine, if you find you're sufficiently successful and productive already with your language, that's totally cool. But you can't not properly learn it, and then claim that the claims of those who have are invalid.

It's like if you started to doubt a touch typist that's telling you that learning to touch type makes you a more productive typist, because when you tried it was hard to learn and you were slower at typing.
Whether or not you agree with their views on crypto in general, all that they really should need to say is – we are a chat product and have nothing to do with the crypto and NFT space. Period.
After reading this, the reputation of the project improved in my mind tremendously.

Not only because they take a clear standpoint from the core principles that they have chosen. But especially that this proofs that the whole project shows to be resilient even when a lot of money is involved.

A long time ago I read of a casino cheat who communicated with a partner via a tactile device, IIRC in his shoe. It was really fascinating.

I think this is a very promising area of exploration. I wonder how fast one could train oneself to silently "read" a near-real-time translation, or "hints" about one's surroundings (rather than see them in AR)?
Yeah, dealing with the smaller buffers is annoying. You could put buffers < 16 bytes in a separate codepath, but that's trading elegance for pretty minor gains.
My experiences so far with Zulip are exclusively with technical groups or programming language groups looking for a place to collaborate. My experiences with Discord have almost exclusively been related to gaming communities or twitch communities.

I'm not sure if others have observed something similar. The anti-blockchain reasoning in this post seems well principled, but I also wonder if it's easier to get away with this position because not many zulip communities are asking for blockchain integration.
Just a question... what are you actually grinding for? You get more stars, but then what?
NFT games: games where you can actually make money. Like gambling, but there is more strategy and a higher chance of winning.

Normally whenever I try to play video games, I quickly ask myself "what's the point?" I literally get more out of spending hours scrolling social media than spending hours playing a game. So the entire motivation/reward system collapses and I get bored.

But in an NFT game there is a point, because with a combination of luck and skill I can actually make money. Maybe the game has some kind of "jackpot" so if I get really lucky I can make enough money to take a month-long vacation or quit my job.

I can see these kinds of games getting really, really popular and addictive. Like microtransactions and lootboxes I can see NFT rewards being common and in AAA games. But without regulation, this is going to have big consequences and ruin people's lives.
> not everyone can just open etherscan and download insight straight into the brain.

So… this is for execs that lack the core competency for being an exec in this space?
"With many popular social and chat apps already on the blockchain bandwagon (including Facebook, Telegram, Signal, Twitter and Reddit), some are wondering whether Zulip might be next. The answer is no"

I wasn't going to jump on the blockchain bandwagon until I heard from Zulip. Glad they could clear up their position.
Common Lisp's extreme extensibility thanks to macros means new features can be added without breaking the standard.
MTTR Is a Midleading Metric
> do you develop your app when you are in the REPL? Or do you try things out in the REPL and write back what you found out in the files?

Yes. :-) Both strategies can be useful. (And note that "app" does not necessarily mean "web app"; web applications are just one kind of application. There are lots of different kinds of applications. The REPL helps with all of them.)
> One can ask Lisp about all that then

How? As in what commands/functions/macros?

Say I define a function and compile with slime, how do I get the repl to print it back to me? And with a function I loaded from an external library? Is there something like macroexpand-1 for functions which will print it out?
Somewhere someone getting screwed is the whole species when it comes to blockchain (and many other superfluous industrial behaviors to supporting life).

Would you be in favour of applying this policy to all people displaying behaviours deemed at higher risk of requiring hospital treatment? And who should decide what constitutes risky activity?
This looks like the right decision, given the nature of their product, but they seem to be doing it for all the wrong reasons:

>Cryptocurrencies have a significant negative impact on the environment

They go on to describe Proof Of Work systems, which are indeed detrimental, but don't even mention the push away from that platform. Fair enough, but it doesn't really make a solid argument when alternatives are available.

>Today’s reality is that cryptocurrencies are enabling massive amounts of criminal behavior

That could be said for 99% of computer software ever made. Criminals are going to use computers the same way we do, so using dumb words like 'enabling' completely miss the point. If anything, cryptocurrency has shown how arbitrary money really is in crime: as long as you exchange something of value, most criminals will be perfectly happy to continue their line of work.

>The lack of effective regulation of crypto assets puts people at high risk of being manipulated by scammers

This one I really don't get. Yes, cryptocurrency is a volatile market. It's mostly ruled by people who have no idea what they're buying in to, contributing to a massive bubble that's eventually going to pop. However, if you have a legitimate product that can actually be enhanced by the blockchain, why would that stop you? You don't need to follow in the exact footsteps of everyone else, that's the beauty of such an open-ended system.

Cryptocurrency, NFTs and all digital stores of value are a fad by design, but it sounds like the author of this article got sucked in by headlines and buzzwords. If the CEO can't put together a decent argument against the technology, it probably would have sufficed to just Tweet it or not offer any justification at all. I reckon the majority of people just outright don't care, and this only really serves to virtue signal into the "tech-bro" hate that has been spreading like wildfire across social media.
Wow. That's a mind blown for me. I've never thought of that, but you're right. When my kids watch a YouTube video, the first thing they talk about is how many views, subscribers.
