Nice one, I'm based in Wellington, let's try to connect.
If you undertake commerce in a jurisdiction, you're generally bound by the laws of that jurisdiction.

If Xiaomi only sold in China, they can do what they like.
My guess is some polarization comes from over identifying with an in group or an issue. So to disagree is threatening their sense of self.

Could also involve stoking passions for political gain.

Finally when someone is convinced the stakes are life or world (as we know it) ending then they're more inclined to be offended by dissent. Especially if they see collective action as the only solution.

When I left a culty branch of Christianity it was hard to overcome the indoctrination and social pressures. "It's your eternal soul! Suffering forever!" And "what about your kids!?"
Static typing is awesome because I don't have to just "know" what's being passed in, I can see exactly the structure of it right there. The nice thing too is that another person who has never touched the code can know this as well without reading the entire code base.

Dynamic languages are fine for quick and dirty stuff. For full fledged software, they still make things too difficult to maintain. Javascript to me personally at least attempts to address this with Typescript.
Yes, if I understand your implied point, your experiences are congruent congruent with the view that there is little incentive to appropriately invest in this area, both into the ICs and higher up in the organization. A lighter standard for redaction would reduce the need for expensive external costs in the case that short response deadlines could successfully be imposed by a judge or Congress.

Show HN: Reminisce Your First Commit Ever on GitHub
I wonder if the "rah-rah" was coming more from business analysts and general sys-admins and less from SWE's or fullstack devs.
But it's capped at roughly 400€/month for each employer/employee
Some of these dark patterns like getting charged for 9 months without knowing doesn't make sense to me. Don't people have to file expense reports each month for their corporate credit cards?
I posted a similar question to HN the other day and got some great info (thanks to everyone who contributed!). Check it out:

You present two choices:

1/ no compilation step during development, but it breaks old browsers;

2/ continuous compilation while developing so that you support old browsers;

…but there ought to be a third option that would satisfy everyone:

3/ no compilation while developing, and one compile step at release time to support older browsers.
> How come that for the same code, Clang shows totally different results than GCC and shows that the basic loop is thirty thousand times faster with -O2 and -O3?

Because clang turns it into `return data+loop_size;`.

In reality of course if you're considering Duff's device, your operations should be much heavier than any of the operations the author tested. And yes, those cases still exist, but people usually consider it cheaper to perpetually throw more compute resources at the problem.
Forgetting to shut down an instance in the cloud is the least worrying problem. In AWS, everything has a price. And some things don’t have a price until they’re the only thing left(ie. Elastic IPs that only charge once they are not assigned to an instance). For someone new to AWS and testing things out, a closer analogy would be like moving into a new house and trying to find out which pipes are leaking
You should watch his videos. They shed quite a bit of light on SerenityOS is written, and it's given me a lot of insight on OSes work.
There is no harm examining the law of unintended consequences and policy makers should do that more often in fact. As TFA makes clear through it's examples, a second or third order effect cost/benefit analysis should not be taken to the point of absurdity or inaction; but you should always remember that fixing something risks breaking something else in the process.
It's okay, it won't either
Yeah... that's super annoying... there's maybe some exceptions, but it's usually not that hard to at least just put a height on the ad, so it's a blank rectangle until it finishes loading, and then it's an annoying rectangle, but it doesn't need to change shape.

Also, on my hate list, articles with an ad under a paragraph that somehow moves to the top when it gets half-way up the screen or something, so it's really hard to scroll down while reading. Blerg.
I’ve been using Emacs for the better part of three decades and it’s never had a stronger community. It may not be the most popular thing, but it draws extremely high quality people and that’s paid great dividends for the user community. And piggybacking off the LSP has been a great advance too.
I'm not going to engage with you on this topic. Try reddit.
Part of TSLA's trillion dollar market cap is predicated on a lot of retail investors believing that the Tesla cars they already own will one day receive an update that will allow the cars to act as driverless robotaxis, and that will generate income for their owners while they sleep.
Those are really good counterexamples and I love your points.

However... just kidding, there's no "however." Great reply.

something for immediate delivery,

I've worked on some big Rails monoliths and this just wasn't an issue very often.

But as you say, I think library code is another story.

Incidentally, whether library or application code, I've found that keyword arguments with well-chosen names have reduced this problem even further. It's not clear that `do_something("blue")` is incorrect, but `do_something(user_age: "blue")` is self-evidently bad.
I'm not really keeping track, but I can immediately recall the professor who spoke about a chinese filler word, the chinese native music professor who showed his class a critically acclaimed film starring Laurence Olivier...
The behavior of the CCP is well-documented, and the West has been infiltrated by their influence.

The CCP has "border disputes" with every single one of their neighbors.

Stop being a useful idiot.

Here's the current international human rights drama with the CCP:

This scientist is getting PR for a faulty analysis:

https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/18/health/covid-origins-market-t...

It's faulty because:

- the CCP has acknowledged a man died on Dec. 1 from corona

- participants at the Military Games said Wuhan had "empty streets" a couple months earlier.

- Wuhan hospital parking lots were full according to satellite images around the time of the Military Games.

- WIV had areas evacuated according to cell tower traffic and a PLA general took control before Dec. 1
Windows NT natively supported threads when Java was released, and Java on Windows NT (and Windows 95) in 1996 used OS threads. There were some problems when running on machines with more than one CPU, but I never figured out if this was the the fault of the OS or the JVM.
It's easy to set up a mailing list. Just sign up for mailchimp, or any one of the many newsletter products like substack or tinyletters, just to collect the email addresses. Not many people regularly read RSS anymore, sadly.
Forking doesn't cost github anything it's a git branch of parent repo. That's why you could see people accessing youtube-dl via a commit hash of github dmca repo.

Those are fair points, but I just kind of hold the entire program space in my head. I work on a pretty large and complicated Rails app that does real world things (handle money, deal with people and companies, etc) and it's daunting at first but after a while it's sort of become one big system of objects interacting with other objects in a global objectspace and that's how it exists in my head.

I think for people that come to love Ruby it feels more natural to think about a program that way as opposed to thinking about a purely lexical context of a piece of code.
Ah yes, Europe, the unfallible bastion of morality, especially when it comes to colonizing, brutalizing, exploiting the people in the global south and genociding each other every couple of 50 or so years.
Congratulations on launching but why hasn’t https://fig.io/privacy been updated since January? It does promise an official Privacy Policy before the general public launch. When I scroll all the way down on https://fig.io, the link in the footer with the title Privacy Policy links to this page. What am I missing?

If your operations are much heavier, then the cost of the loop condition becomes negligible. And if they're not as heavy as you thought (because the compiler's better at logic puzzles than you!), then you've wasted a whole lot more energy than those loop conditions would have.

Ironically this is the kind of thing that ES6 modules actually solves. It's even better if your tool is internal-facing only so that you don't have to bother with the release time older browser compatibility thing.
Huffpo has layoffs, so all of journalism is doomed? Over-react much?

And Huffpo is somewhat marginal at being journalism...
I think, also based on the previous comment, it is still better at some things than the open source alternatives. If you really need it for the specific situations it excels in, I guess it makes sense to pay for it.
I don’t think that’s what the article is saying.
On more than one occasion I wanted to write:

switch (foo) {
if (0) {
case X:
/* X-specific code */
} else {
case Y:
/* Y-specific code */
}
/* common code for X and Y */
break;
}

Africa can’t afford in-person teachers. The ones in my country are not great on average.

I couldn’t learn maths in class. Too distracted, too annoyed with stupid questions. But I increased 3 symbols in 3 school terms with a slide projector and audio tape, where I could focus and rewind. Teacher there was for bits I didn’t learn from the slides. I’m probably in the minority but I’m sure there are more of me.

Digital education catches kids like me and kids who have no access to excellent educators. And marginal cost is zero, so no harm in giving access to the world.
Is there an implicit constraint that these are at two different banks?

Because I thought it was normal that a bank or credit union allows you to instantly move money between different accounts at the same institution.
I agree there is a lot of research pre-pandemic on the effectiveness of various types of masks in preventing the spread of virus. The consensus before the pandemic was that the spread prevention was so low that it could not justifiably be recommended for the purpose of preventing spread of virus.

If you believe that wasn't/isn't the scientific consensus, then I welcome you again to find any public health official willing to state on the record how much viral transmission they believe masks are preventing. I'll expand the challenge to include heads of top tier medical universities. And I'll even accept a range, like "between x and y%." You will not find such a thing.

I honestly can't be the only person who doesn't care about a non-active filter list that was probably left over by some dev who put it in there for Chinese users.

I feel like at this point we're just scraping the bottom of the barrel for the daily dose of anti-Chinese content
This sounds awful. Are things any better with more recent model years? IDK when the X came out, but a 2017 was probably pretty early, right?
It sounds weird but don't underestimate the positive value of making the same mistake at scale instead of a bunch of different ones. That is essentially the model of laws and bueracracies and as much as the latter draws complaints it works far better than literal fiefdoms. Even when the holders were trained essentially from birth.
Thanks for pointing that out. Guess I forgot that 'if' when I read:

> There are absolutely exploitable resources there; they are just irrelevant...

Because I haven't read of any human-sustaining resources except some ice. Rather that analyzed samples of the soil and atmosphere are too toxic and radiation at the surface too high.
There is a reason why people prefer Xiaomi over other brands. What I can remember is pricing, ability to unlock without losing warranty, quality of the hardware.

A different phone like Samsung has problems like warranty being void if flashes, bad hardware, riddled with advertisements as you can't use your own firmware because of previous reasons. In fact, many people in my country choose Xiaomi phones over any brand. Also, Xiaomi provides a better ecosystem like distributions of ROM, flashing software officially.

Other phones like one plus, iPhone has a high price compared to Xiaomi.

The unfortunate fact is the competitor of Xiaomi phone is another Chinese branded phone and

Vote By Mail always works. Oregon has decades now, and it beats every other election method by every metric you can name.

All it takes is a reasonable implementation, which Oregon did and has exported to other States who all have performed.

The stuff you are talking about is last minute pandemic triggered fuckery and is not representative at all.

There are great answers to every exception you put here.

Want to vote in person? Go to an elections office and do that.

Did not get a ballot? Same deal, and there is ample time available. Does not land on a single day.

Were you coerced? Visit an elections office, get your vote sorted, report them, and they could end up in jail.

Worried about mailing it in? Don't. You can use a collections box, or hand deliver.

Did it count? Go online to see status, ballot received, votes will count. Go to an elections office to fix or recast ballot.

Are you registered? Check online, register online, done. Or do in person.

Auto registration happens for all citizens at the DMV. This had to ramp up, and a citizenship check had to get done, but all the people are done and we are just managing the usual churn.

Worried about turnout? Oregon has great metrics. People have a couple weeks to get their votes cast and turned in somehow.

Want to cast the right votes? No screens, no pressure, check your voter guide, research, check them off one by one at your leisure.

Worried about process?

The ballots have a chain of custody, can be hauled into court, and have for manual counts.

Audits are performed against the optical scan machines. Physical voter intent records mean they can always be counted, checked, litigated, whatever the process demands.

I can tell you we vote better and more often, even doing the little elections that happen because it is easy and robust.

No vote challengers bullying people at the polls.

No bullshit voter roll garbage. Everyone checks well in advance of elections. Anyone needing their record updated, party changed, whatever gets it quick and easy and one can call real people too. Almost nobody does, but there are people to call.

Need help voting? Yup. Got that too. I did it a year or two for fun. You sign up and help voters however they need it. Can't see, can't read, whatever.

A National ID does not get us there. The good stuff that makes elections run well happen at the State levels and below. Those are where all the trouble is.

We have problem States. Those people there need to get behind something and lean on it, until their State runs better. Many States that do VBM will do what Oregon does and that is the Secretary of State is available to advise and share everything. There is no need for secrets.
On the bright side, syscalls have manpages that accurately describe their errors. In this case, "man 2 execve" says:

Or maybe they're just average people, terrified out of their wits by a narrative that wasn't based in facts, and was promulgated by a media industry that needs panic to survive.

I guess we'll never know. But there sure are a lot of folks wearing gloves now who weren't wearing them before. And that's why I was sighing.
I don't want to be too dismissive of the work going into this, but Chess isn't that huge of a search space. Games can quickly end in many scenarios from certain points.

Does having an evaluation system that takes into account king safety only as a consequence of having taken the entire game state into account, mean that it understands king safety? Can you extract these tactics from the AI? Can it explain the moves?

I would be interested in seeing work here that can provide some comprehensibility to the correlations, as that's how we can get to actual novel intuition. "The computer is good with this neural network due to pattern matching" is less actionable than "the computer is good and found this kind of pattern, and we think it relates to this".

EDIT: I think that if anything Chess is an interesting example of humans emulating computers. People sitting around thinking about variations, trying to snuff out what is good/bad. Granted, the fact that you're playing against other humans is pretty important at a higher level, but it's centuries of people sitting down and running through the search space, using our approximations for what are good and bad.
Same! Pretty sure there will be tons of products for semantic search over local & cloud files within the next 1-2 years.

For now we've chosen to build Elicit around aggregating and synthesizing research - what is the evidence in each paper, what are the arguments, how do they come together to inform questions people care about?

We think research is a good starting point for figuring out how to use language models to do high-quality reasoning because (a) researchers care a lot about what's true and (b) research is already more structured than most other sources of knowledge.
But did they manage to keep their prices low?

apparently you don't know how evil is CCP. I don't blame your ignorance.
I’ve been writing TS for a year now and I find TS annoying. Especially for react components with state management of some kind, the types get so complex you almost need unit tests to assert they are what you think they are. Additionally, TS being a structural type system with no access to nominal types at all eliminates a whole class of “ghosts of departed proofs” modeling techniques. (And, I know you can work around this, but those workarounds are ugly.)

My view is that I’d use TS if I have to but I’d pick either plain JS / CLJS or something like purescript if I really wanted types.
Which isn't to say lexical scope isn't important in a ruby program -- it's paramount, especially for resolving constants -- it's just that after a while it's not that big of a deal that there is some ambiguity about where things come from. For me it's one of the most intuitive languages I've ever worked with but it requires a sense of intuition that is learned over time, as contradictory as that sounds.
The issue with that is we have already been using algorithimic filtering for a very long time in internet terms. Spam filters are ubiquitous and help keep out the infamous online Viagra sellers and comment posters in check. It is a very limited subset of course.
> They either had enough people to already go through those documents, analyse them and conclude the vaccine was safe in about a month. In which case, they could reallocate those people for a month to redact said documents.

These are different jobs with different qualifications. The people who decide whether your vaccines are safe are not experts in processing FOIA requests, nor is that a reasonable use of their time when the FDA has actual regulatory work to do. And if it doesn’t violate any federal hiring regulations, it’s certainly a good way to lose important employees.
There is a fundamental contradiction between safety and freedom. The more you are in control, the more you need to know and pay attention too. Any guard rails necessarily limit your choice of path.

In other words, the price of liberty is eternal vigilance, and there is a lot of people who do not want to pay that price. They just need stuff done, no matter what.
