For just AAA gaming (no time like the rest here but I try to do it a few hours per month and often I lose discipline and play too long and feel guilty) the gpd win 3. But hold on; I actually bought that for my current actual favorite gaming device which I spend way too much time on; the Quest 2. I connect them together (as I can stick the win3 in my bag while it has a lot of power) and use Immersive VR to have 5 monitors to code on taking up a fraction of the space. And when I take a break, I shoot zombies or climb mountains. It is not perfect yet, but with more battery life and higher res, it would be perfect for me.
As ghastly as that is, your uri is qt fartc.
Sounds to me like people are paying out the ass for things that can be managed in house with a competent dev/IT shop.

Instead let's make a one time hardware purchase, with warranty for parts, and handle the software in house with FOSS.

I'm guessing we'll see a reduction much like those for multi-head or multi-tape Turing machines to single-tape, single-head, classical Turing machines.

First, let's suppose the main ("unnamed") virtual stack has index 0, and the others ($x, $y, $z, and so on) have positive indices. Our "physical" stack will contain these virtual stacks as quotations. The main stack is at the top (index zero), and other stacks are deeper in the stack (given by their index).

Each virtual stack is represented by a series of nested quotations, so for example the stack "a b c" would be stored on the physical stack as [[[[nil] a] b] c]. We need to define `nil`; it should be something that turns a virtual stack underflow into a physical stack underflow, so let's pick:

nil = [swap drop clone apply] clone apply

If we want to push (or pop) an element between a virtual stack and the physical stack, we need to traverse down to it; meaning we need to store all of the stacks with index less than our target temporarily. We can do this by successively quoting and composing the top two elements of the real stack, so that given a stack `a b c d` we can move `a` to the second position (and `b c d` all into the first position) as `a [b [c [d]]]`; a `swap` then makes `a` available for immediate operation, after which we `swap again` before returning to the original configuration of the physical stack.

Now, given a program to run, we can see all of the named stacks it uses. This lets us preallocate all of our virtual stacks onto the physical stack at startup. A virtualized stack operation will pop N elements from up to N virtual stacks onto the physical stack, perform some operation, and then push M elements from the physical stack onto up to M virtual stacks.

The wx-maxima[1] is a good GUI for maxima. A very nice mature FLOSS symbolic math package. For derivatives, integrals, simplification and many other uses I don't think it is nowhere weaker than proprietary alternatives.

Completely depends on your use case. If you're checking if sys calls work, you'd only need to run one first and see if it succeeds. Then you can be reasonably sure you have access to the rest.

Did you notice a change in bills?
Same. I bought a house recently, and the appliances are all from the early 90s except a couple from the late 50s. My parents asked when I'm going to replace them, and I reminded them that they've had to replace their oven twice in the past ten years because none of the new stuff works for any time period. Meanwhile my appliances are at their youngest old enough to be talking to their little appliance friends about their appliance 401k.
If yo don't have enough time, then go with PS5. It's powerful, has good quality exclusive games, and is just plug and play.

Why HN is removing articles that ask about HN policy?
For example this one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29289875

I would think that if this is such a hot topic that many people are trying to address but does not fit well for HN, then it would only benefit to explain why it is so instead of keeping people in dark.

Besides I find many removed articles are talking about issues with the social media which relates to tech industry in general.
Actually, they're not. @kmm stated that they prefer their apartment at 19 degrees. Since it is 19 degrees already as a result of heat radiating from neighboring units, even when they have their thermostat set at 19, the heat won't come on.

I don't see how you can justify calling @kmm a freeloader here. Are they obligated to keep their thermostat higher than 19, even though they prefer the temperature of their apartment at 19? If so, why would you say they're obligated to waste energy? The only way to keep the apartment at 19 with the thermostat set higher would be to open the window continuously.

In a lot of places the “product design” is just the agglomeration of AB tests conceived by a large and widely distributed army of junior PMs. There is no one person responsible for the end to end experience, no top down vision, no one who’s ever going to say no on design or conceptual integrity grounds. At most an idea can get killed for having weak or negative experiment results.

I’ve never worked at Apple, but my understanding is that they have/had gatekeepers, from Jobs himself on down, to tell you your idea isn’t part of the vision and we’re not going to do it. And a lot of workers hate that!
I don't know why this is surprising. You can find lots of examples of Republicans sacrificing their so-called "closely held beliefs" when those beliefs are politically inconvenient.

Party of big business is being held back by big business? Break up the big businesses. Accuse them of "censorship" or whatever.

Party of constitutional originalism? Let's govern by whatever the bible says. Let's celebrate a teenager shooting people in the street instead of getting what he got: a trial by jury.

Party of patriotism is losing elections? Declare the whole thing a fraud and attempt to install your candidate as leader anyway.

Party of "respect the president no matter what because the office is respectable"? "bill clinton/barrack obama/joe biden will usher in socialism" "obama is a muslim" "let's go brandon" [that one anime gif that a senator posted with bidens face in it] [that one guy who paraded around with a stuffed obama lookalike hanging from a noose]

Party of fiscal responsibility? Let's pass tax cuts for the insanely wealthy and blow up the national debt. Let's undo everything Clinton did - who needs a surplus anyway? Trade war with China? You bet.

Party of family values? Let's separate children from their parents at the border. Let's bomb the shit out of random places that have slighted us in some way and blame it on some made up boogeyman. Healthcare? "fuck you try not being born poor next time"

Party of military support? Let's elect a draft dodger president. Let's pick fights we can't win.

Party of small government? Let's tell everyone who they're allowed to fuck. Let's require that god be included in schools again. Let's let everyone do their own thing unless we don't like it, in which case we're absolutely going to try to tell them what to do.

The republican party believes what they want, when they want. Continuing to pretend that they actually stand for something other than owning the libs at this point is pointless.

Something that surprisingly, almost nobody has said: In order to use somebody's wi-fi, you have to do things that affect the source of the wi-fi. Wi-fi is inherently a two-way thing; wi-fi that only went from your neighbor's house to you but sent nothing back would be useless.

It's true that wi-fi also differs from light in that you're using limited bandwidth, but that difference is only even possible because wi-fi is a two-way thing, so it's possible for your actions outside the house to cause loss of the bandwith inside the house.

As for employers, overhead is something that you should be taking into consideration as part of the negotiation for wages. If the employer suddenly made you work from home and this increased your costs, this is the equivalent to the employer suddenly reducing your salary. Whether it's fair is just like whether any other reduction in salary is fair. Does the UK have laws about salary reductions?
In the UK the law was changed such that people were given the freedom to transfer out of their defined benefit schemes, and most were paid handsome lump sums for doing so because the schemes were desperately underfunded and wanted people out

I realised this when I lived in a middle flat. I had the heating set to around 20 degrees I think, but it barely ever kicked on. The downside was in the summer it got too hot and I couldn't cool it well at all. Wasn't great for sleeping.

Yep, this is a thing. Friends who never played a game in their life were shooting and climbing after a few minutes in the Quest. I struggle with modern console controllers (while I am really good still with 80s joysticks; they are not alike in any way), on the Quest 2 I will redo a round after failing 10x because I did not fail due to the frustrating controls, which I have no patience or time to learn anyway, but I failed just because i was not fast enough. That improves gaming so much for me, I started to like modern gaming again after leaving it for some 20 years (I played retro games with joysticks though during that time).
The PSP has tons of emulators/homebrew + native PS1 support, and you can use Android or PC to emulate the DS/GBA pretty well (same instruction set or JIT-ted emulators). Good thing about Nintendo systems is ROM size, so you can have tons of games and not get bored.

Plus, if you have an old android phone with buttons or close volume keys, you can use it as a complete portable GB/A or DS. I remember to have played the heck out of SFA3/Pokemon in an old phone on long trips.

So I would stick to portable handleds and check out ports or exclusives. If you have a modded home console its more of the same but with better graphics and power or more space for ROMS.
In the future, every individual must be an expert on a single subject to a currently unimaginable depth. However, expertise must be simultaneously robbed of prestige and its value relegated to only its utility.
No, what I said is that there appears to be a structural problem causing a lack of docters, which we need to fix, as it causes high work pressure (and rather high earnings). I don't think doctors working 60+ hour weeks is the type of solution to the shortage we should aim work.

You are asking a question that does not have an answer, because "exist" is not well-defined. But if you want to know whether an arbitrary JavaScript in your browser will stop or not, well you can not know that for all scripts people can throw at you. In this sense uncomputable functions do exist.

It's weird to see this presented as some sort of novel idea, given that using the same partition for Linux and Windows (and DOS) is how I first ran Linux, more than two decades ago. IIRC, it was even an option on the Linux installer, and no special setup was necessary (and it was one of the most popular distributions, Slackware, not some weird specialist distribution). All the Linux files were on a subdirectory of the FAT filesystem (IIRC C:\LINUX), and the rest of the FAT filesystem appeared as a subdirectory of the root while running Linux (IIRC /dos). The bootloader was a normal DOS executable (LOADLIN.EXE), which could be started through a normal DOS batch file. The Linux filesystem permissions were kept as special files on each directory (visible when running DOS, but hidden by the UMSDOS filesystem when running Linux). It worked perfectly, and is the reason I ended up on Linux instead of one of the BSDs (which would have required me to reformat to carve out a dedicated partition).
> I often wonder whether this constitutes stealing.

No, definitely not. You're not responsible for the insulation context of the apartment you're renting (as it pertains to eg such things as shared or external walls). You're not responsible for the apartment design. You're not responsible for the materials it is constructed of, nor how thick its walls are.

You would have to do something dramatic to the construction of the apartment to alter the context you're describing, and that's likely not in your legal purview to do, as such it's not your responsibility morally or legally.

A lot of companies think this way, but it isn't necessarily true that excess carbon emissions aren't a financial pain point. Putting aside the implementation of carbon taxes, there are a lot of enterprises out there who could increase their productivity and reduce carbon emission as a side effect.

Agriculture in particular would fit in that category but any manufacturer emitting carbon is basically burning something that they could burn less of and save money.

So I don't think carbon emission reduction is necessarily a good way to market a company. Efficiency and cost savings that just happen to reduce emissions? That's where the focus should be.

I fully believe in software freedom (including favoring the GPL), and am trying to push it forward with this argument. I just see using a "6300 with microcode 2019-12-18" as the exact same compromise as using a "6200 with microcode 2011-11-14", regardless that the first blob was loaded at runtime while the second blob was loaded at the factory. Neither one lets me audit or modify my processor. There aren't many performant processors that do let you do such things, so the FSF is willing to compromise on systems with the second type of processor. I argue that they should extend that same pragmatism to the first type of processor as well.

Ultimately, the goal of a GNU/Linux distribution is to create a fully Free GNU/Linux environment. A fully free system would be a worthy goal, but Guix is not attempting such a thing (say by refusing to run if it detects hardware that has non-free firmware in flash). Rather they preemptively compromise by ignoring blobs stored in flash, but refuse the same compromise when those blobs would be loaded at runtime. This is completely backwards given that blobs loaded into auxiliary processors' RAM by Free software running on the main processor are actually more under the control of Free software.

And sure, nonguix exists. But I've gotten the impression that when you interact with the Guix community (eg irc), they will give you a bit of a cold shoulder for using nonguix because it is "not free software", even though you're making the exact same compromise as anyone else with a non-Free microprocessor or non-free auxiliary processor firmware. So ultimately I'm arguing that community norms, as led by the FSF, need to change here. They're stuck with an outdated model that simply ignores embedded firmware, rather than engaging with the nuance of labeling each part of a system as "free" or "non-free"

The financial planning is the same, the difference is just in who takes responsibility.

The bottom line is that many people had this as a benefit and now very few do. What's unchanged is most people spend less time thinking about their pension throughout their lifespan than they do about almost anything else you can imagine, but they really should be because it's all on their shoulders now.

Here in the UK it seems we have a whole generation a couple of decades away from retirement poverty.
This looks really awesome. A few questions:

1. Is the "main stack" (the unnamed one, the one your program begins with focus on) specially identifiable in some way? I note further down this comment tree that, if the "main stack" is simply whichever one happens to be in focus, there are some exciting possibilities for coroutines that are simply resumed in focus of the stack that they treat as their main.

2. Are stack names always statically known in Dawn? Put differently, can you generate fresh stack names at runtime? If so, what does that look like, and how does that impact a theoretical reduction from multi-stack Dawn to single-stack Dawn? If not, can you envision additional intrinsics for supporting coroutines without requiring the user program to virtualize stacks manually?

3. Do you have any thoughts on concurrency in general in Dawn? I'm a big fan of the mental model offered by concurrent logic paradigms (especially Saraswat's concurrent constraint programming), where concurrent systems interact monotonically over shared logical variables. I think there's a subtle and exciting alignment between that concept and your named stacks. Does this line up with any of your thoughts?

4. (A bonus) What happens when an operation is attempted on an empty stack? I assume some form of exceptional case occurs, but in the face of concurrency, would it make sense to yield execution until something else puts an element onto the stack? (Probably not, because of FIFO semantics, but it's a fun question!)
