This issue hurts the wider types that are compiler built-ins.

Even though C has a programming model that is devoid of any carry flag concept, canned types like a 128 bit integer can take advantage of it.

Portable C code to simulate a 128 bit integer will probably emit bad code across the board. The code will explicitly calculate the carry as an additional operand and pull it into the result. The RISC-V won't look any worse, then, in all likelihood.

(The above RISC-V instruction set sequence is shorter than the mailing list post author's 7 line sequence because it doesn't calculate a carry out: the result is truncated. You'd need a carry out to continue a wider addition.)
Evidently, they have a free conference next week[0].

Just downloaded the deb and installed it. Not going to lie it's a little janky but it also seems closer to the metal. It's just a cmake project and the code seems easy to understand. Once you get a project running in the editor it's very similar to unreal. The ui looks right out of UE5.

The discord also seems nice and populated by people from SIGGRAPH. It's run by the Linux Foundation and seems to be an effort to create a game engine equivalent of Blender.

Overall it looks pretty decent for a first release. You can kind of see the possibility of what it could be in the future.
Neat concept.

As someone not very up-to-date in Web UI techniques, I was curious as to how the array was being advanced on scroll. Unfortunately, it looks like the answer is basically polling. The code constantly calls window.requestAnimationFrame(), checking window.pageYOffset. This means that the page is constantly doing work, even at idle.

Surely the more correct way is to install an onscroll handler or something, right?
The sad thing is that many people will just read the headline or the original email and walk away misinformed and indeed disinformed

This is probably the right course of action. However, it is unfeasible to derive a fair tax level in the current climate. Too many people look to force conformity and/or exact punishment, instead of engaging in a good faith tradeoff negotiation.
> Doesn't the US government get more tax revenue if Nvidia makes some extra dough charging royalties for that IP? I’m confused.

Maximizing tax revenues is not the FTC’s job.
It's not just sudoers accounts, the reality is that privilege escalation vulnerabilities are very common on Linux systems, particularly if you run uncommon drivers. So any sort of code execution, even on an unprivileged account is generally game over.
I’m glad you like it. One of the goals is to make discovering math easy and fun, in particular exploring theorems and definitions.
I reflected upon how I approached many past opportunities, and realised that I only truly enjoy the process if the nature of work is interesting to me because I'm mostly interest-driven. I also found that enjoying the process is already rewarding regardless of the outcome, and at the same time have much more control over the process than the outcome. :)

If you need random access to s3 within an ec2 region, sticking nginx in front of it as a caching proxy is unbelievably faster than hitting s3 directly; even moreso if you're multi-region.

I recently experimented with trying to have nginx rewrite images from png/jpeg to webp for clients that support it. I ended up with a solution where a lambda triggered off new files added to a bucket and re-encoded them as webp alongside the originals. When a request came into nginx, it would examine the URL and client Accept headers, and then first try to fetch the webp file from s3 before falling back to fetching the original from s3.

I was somewhat surprised that nginx was capable of doing it efficiently, given the nginx configuration format and all the moving pieces.
Fascinating... So many strange acquisitions and this is the one that triggers all the red flags. The story will come out eventually and I think it's going to be a doozy.
Every time a vivaldi post shows up on HN it attracts a lot of negative comments (and some positive ones). Will just add my voice to the mix - Vivaldi is my primary browser and I love it. On my 5 year old laptop I experience no slowness, and I generally enjoy it's very user-focused features. I also enjoyed Opera prior to version 12. I recognize it's not the browser for everyone, but on my Linux boxes it's the second app I install (mutt is the first one). Your experience may vary.

Something I've found interesting is that the arguments deployed against Rittenhouse are pretty analogous to victim-blaming in rape cases.

- Rittenhouse did something legal, but risky and potentially foolhardy.

- An external agent intervenes, causing the incident

- "Well, he shouldn't have been there to begin with" vs "Well, she knew that was a bad part of town"

Main differences there would be that he defended himself successfully, so to some, victim and aggressor get flipped.
Why would you say something like that? It makes me uncomfortable even pointing stuff like this out but sometimes people just need to see it.

I watched a documentary about this dude sometime ago and kinda was almost confident he'd finish his work. I didn't even read the article to know he died!
Also I wanted to add: matrix is also trying to do a lot more than signal is. Signal is not substantially different than for example WhatsApp, only with more responsible owners.

Matrix is aiming at being a completely open network standard, identity service (can use a phone number but doesn't have to!), multiuser conferencing system etc, in the decentralised spirit of the early internet. In that sense it's more comparable to MS Teams (which is moving fast in development but MS is rolling in it and they're making it slower and buggier with every version recently)

It's not perfect but considering their scope is much bigger, they're moving fast enough IMO.

Moxie has mentioned before that clients not supporting certain features was a burden but this is not something that Matrix seems to be having much delay from. If a client doesn't support pictures, audio messages or whatever they just don't show them.

Ps when I said matrix E2E encryption is a ton better I mean it's much better than it used to be 2 years ago. Not better than signal, which is technically better but more limited in terms of number of clients.

My problem is that mandate is weighing so much on the "bad" side, that the "good" side is completely dwarfed. In other words, I'm unable to reason about the vax, as I never was able to make good decision in similar situation.
That mandates are introduced on top of previous completely useless and hostile measures like curfews, outdoor playgrounds closures, etc. and generally divisive rhetoric doesn't help to build any trust either.

I'm in a Berlin medtech company closely related to GPs and have multiple other connections to area hospitals. From this perspective I would say everything you've said is entirely accurate for at least this part of Germany, if not the whole country.

It's really a shockingly well kept secret, especially to the outside world. Much like the utterly dysfunctional rail system.

Before the pandemic, I would have said that the country's healthcare system was about a decade away from resource-crisis. Now, it may have already started. I'm terrified of ending up in a hospital, even if there's no covid-wave ongoing. I do not want my life in the hands of the overworked traumatized remnants.

The way this country treats healthcare workers is shameful.
That’s spot on, it’s like seeing a scene of deja vu from the 1960s where people didn’t give a second-thought about throwing garbage anywhere until the EPA and Clean Water Act entered the scene.

People get used to it being “a thing” in their lives, and just don’t have the awareness or infrastructure for better disposal.
The correct way would be a mix of those two strategies: an onscroll handler that schedules an update through requestAnimationFrame (ensuring that it only gets scheduled once until the next frame update actually executes).
The guy who discovered Tut Ankh Amun's tomb and the other guy who financed his many years of digging are good examples. At least those guys found what they were looking for!

> When you rezone low density residential into high density residential the apartments wouldn't appear by repurposing existing structures either.

Didn't get the answer I was looking for when searching for 'ed'. Well, I found it after adding a word, but got a chuckle first.
If SpaceX can get Starship flying at the price they predict, it would be a game-changer. Presently that seems like a big 'if'.

It would pay to be the first nation with a Brilliant Pebbles installation, since such an installation could be used to deny any other nation the ability to create the same. Brilliant Pebbles isn't merely an anti-missile system; it could also be used to intercept rockets launching satellites, including the launch other BP systems. It's a winner-takes-all game.

If the strategic interests of America are not your own interests, all of this obviously seems very grim. If you think strategic defense is just a waste of money, then all of this is more of the same. But if you're the sort of person who thinks that billions of dollars spent on nuclear submarines is money well spent, then using Starship to launch a Brilliant Pebbles constellation is a no-brainer.
> <Cadey> As an aside, it seems that most of the people that do VR on NixOS that I know use Nvidia cards. Nvidia drivers on NixOS seem to be significantly less cursed when compared to other distros, however when I built this tower I was building it assuming that I would primarily run NixOS on it. This made me pick an AMD card even though they have slightly less waifus per second compared to their Nvidia counterparts. However the fact that amdgpu is in the damn kernel by default and the AMD team works with mesa to make things work well was the selling point for me. Maybe I should try an Nvidia card?

Yep. AMD is the one whose drivers are open-source and in the kernel by default and all that, but NVidia is the one whose drivers actually work.

(Similarly my prejudices mean I'm not surprised that X11 worked and Wayland and Pulseaudio got in the way)

The FTC mentioned chips in vehicles multiple times.

>High-Level Advanced Driver Assistance Systems for passenger cars. These systems offer computer-assisted driving functions, such as automated lane changing, lane keeping, highway entrance and exit, and collision prevention;

I wonder if this action is related to the automotive chip shortage concerns in any way.
European governments were raising the issue of increasingly sophisticated attacks against their satellites earlier in the year, which makes it less likely it is pure propaganda (it might still be a budget shout though). The US is well-equipped for this, both defensively and offensively, but the frequency and severity of the attacks has been increasing by all accounts.

While not mentioned in the article, my understanding is that some of the current attacks are only quasi-reversible e.g. some appear to be specifically designed to cause satellites to waste all the fuel in their maneuvering thrusters, greatly shortening their service life.
Restrictions also become either increasingly lax or actively resisted. It's not an end of story. Part of the failure of the last two years was the unwillingness to think what will happen after the latest sure solution arrives and to govern with a goal of doing well across several phases of the pandemic instead of just one.
DBT is really nice, but not a game changer since it's basically a SQL generator and only as good as the underlying SQL engine of your data warehouse.
> Free credit monitoring is the biggest scam of all

The root cause is a clause in Federal law[1] that precludes an individual from holding a creditor or credit bureau liable for inaccurate information regarding that individual. If we were able to sue the creditor and credit bureau because they engaged in libel, then identity theft would no longer be a thing because there would be incentive for banks and other creditors to actually verify the identity of the individual before issuing credit.

What do you believe this comparison means? I'm not sure its saying much of anything. Perhaps you could come up with another similar sized city, with same socioeconomic/population-type makeup, with same latitude and seasonality profile to compare against?
I'm not familiar with SF data sources on this, but I'm curious if you can provide a source for current IFR? My state here in southeast US's IFR is .012. That includes people who died in car accidents, of poisonings, of falls and other injurious actions while having tested positive for COV in last 28 days. My county is comprised of mostly older folks (median age 44), small at 186K people, and we haven't had a COV death registered in the last 11 months.

>We can compare e.g. Sweden to other Nordic countries to see what an abysmal failure the Swedish “herd immunity” strategy turned out to be.

Can you show some data sources for this? Everything I'm seeing is pointing to Sweden's last 2 flu seasons (encompassing COVID years) showing the same or lower all cause mortality than their previous 15-20 years. With 2018 being the major outlier not just in Sweden but all around the world, for which we still have no explanation.
Are those mutually exclusive? Modern society can be a systemic trainwreck and still be better than what came before.
> ARM needs better GPU patents

Remember also that "GPU" technology is not strictly about graphics.

If you browse the marketing website, listen to the keynotes, and generally learn of the NVIDIA vision of the future, it is something like this. There will be tons of little robots and similar endpoints ("edge computing"). Such a robot will be powered by a little ARM chip with an NVIDIA coprocessor for its on-board AI (computer vision, mobility, and the like). The robot will talk over 5G or one of its successors — the signal processing for the base station perhaps powered by something like NVIDIA AI-on-5G. This communication link will connect it with compute appliances in the nearest utility closet or server room, wherein NVIDIA simulation and route-planning software maintains a "digital twin" of the real world, and helps orchestrate their operations, while operators can render that model on their local machines. And all these devices will have computer-vision and route-planning models on board, models that are trained in the big machines in the datacenter.

We have a few of these systems in computing today, but AI coprocessors will become very interesting as we move deeper into this world.
The secrecy part of this game is infuriating, where the existence of some of these birds is not even acknowledged. Everyone knows that stuff is there, egs: stuffin.space and https://www.ucsusa.org/resources/satellite-database etc.

Ask HN: Coders, what are your thoughts on YouTube's dislike removal?
When YouTube announced removing the dislikes, a lot of people argues that that people would stop complaining after they get used to it in a few days.

I don't think I will ever get used to it unfortunately. I often use YouTube to watch tutorials for various coding topics. Removing the dislikes has left me wasting a few minutes often because it's hard to judge low quality or unrelated tutorials.

Even troubleshooting Windows or other daily stuff is made very hard because of this.

What's your experience been?
It bears repeating that the US wanted Russia to have earlier warning of launches so that there was a longer time buffer built in before they'd have to decide whether or not a blip was real or not. They still only have five of the six satellites up they'd need to get full coverage.

There is no tactical advantage gained by your enemy having less time to react (we're talking minutes-hours right?) unless you are actually attacking, in which case civilization is "dramatically changing" very soon. If nukes are flying, people need to be on the red phone ASAP!!!

Well the argument is that ARM is cheap and good for consumers because it's cheap. I wanted to make it clear that you can't go to ARM and buy <cheap arm chip>. You have to go to Qualcomm or Apple or Broadcom and buy <not quite so cheap arm chip>. So that kinda impacts the argument.

Whatever Nvidia wants to do with licensing they have to combat market forces already in play. There's a market for somewhat less expensive arm chips, for one, so they'd lose that revenue. Two, if they want to royally fuck arm shops and become the only ARM vendor, well, good luck... you just killed the ISA you bought for 40 billion...
