USA the country that has done more foreign invasions, and wars, is trying to spread the peace? Why is China and Russia not invading as much? Because they don't care about peace! Really?

The assassinations are alleged and lack evidence. Crimea was Russian not long ago and the people voted democratically to be Russian again. Isn't that what USA/UK are trying to achieve in HongKong, in reverse? Democratically vote them out of China?

Well, Emacs is incredibly powerful, but it is just too much work to do anything, even regarding keystrokes and all the chords you have to remember. I have worked on Emacs too, but sometimes it is just not worth investing so much time and energy in Emacs if you can spend much fewer time in Vim and get a lot more done.

VimScript is aweful, sure, but with Neovim Lua support, you can do a lot more in a decent and fast language. Emacs has some great plugins and good LSP support (Also, available in Neovim/Vim and also native treesitter support too). There is barely anything in Emacs at this moment that really justifies investing so much time into it.

Even with this post, as an experienced Vimmer, I could basically do everything they are doing here, without installing any plugin and remembering all those obscure keystrokes.

Also, Emacs folks downvoting this, tell me if my logic is wrong, you will come up with NADA.
Razor for MAUI is available in the Experimental Blazor Mobile Bindings, but I doubt it will make the 7.0 cut. Having worked extensively with both XAML and Razor and Blazor, I can 100% guarantee that Razor + DI is 10x better than XAML.
The expansion is actually more than double that, 9% is the figure I've commonly seen. See for instance Wikipedia [1]:

An unusual property of water is that its solid form—ice frozen at atmospheric pressure—is approximately 8.3% less dense than its liquid form; this is equivalent to a volumetric expansion of 9%.

The "4" might be coming from the temperature at which water's density is the largest, which happens at 4 degrees Celsius.

Water is weird. :)

>I hope people could stop whining everytime they mess up a search query.

I dont know. I have never seen anyone using the term "Fusion" by itself, may be it is specific to RISC-V crowd? It is always "macro-op fusion". So your parent 's search parameter isn't something out of order for someone how knows very little about hardware. And HN are full of Web developers so abstracted in the hierarchy they knows practically zero about hardware.

And to be quite frankly honest the GP's point about Fusion had me confused for a sec as well.
So few rumours I heard.

1. They were already pressured to list on HK. However, listing on HK turns out is harder than NYC. So they go to the NYC instead since finding already quite dry.

2. Chinese gov fears that someday Didi might be required to disclose data to SEC/US govt for whatever reason and that include sensitive data.

Remember Beijing is paranoid enough about data to the point that they scramble GPS signal in China. No way they gonna let US get accurate mapping plus ride data.

> As someone who has only experience with vim and not Emacs, are there any advantages to Emacs or is it just „different“?

As someone who uses both, there are clear advantages to each one. A Vim power-user spending time learning Emacs will not be wasting their time (and vice-versa, of course).

IMO, Vim is slightly faster to use when you want to navigate the file, making changes as you go, while Emacs is slightly better at programmatically automating common tasks.
Most engineers don’t, but many do.
The USA has no interest in going to war with China. China makes our cheap stuff. We would like China to stop putting Uyghurs in concentration camps and leave Taiwan alone but we're not going to war over that man.

Also Americans don't fear China in a visceral sense. We see a country of middle managers and rice farmers run by a pudgy Winnie the Pooh cosplayer.

Ray Dalio's China Equivalence
Because all of these things work at population level, not necessarily at an individual level.

Masks reduce the amount of aerosols a person emits, thereby reducing the distance and amount of viral particles an infected person can spread in any given situation.

As a side benefit some masks protect the wearer to an extent, particularly N95s, but the main purpose is to reduce spread from infected people in the first place.

Vaccines, similarly, are not a magic shield that protect you from even getting COVID. Instead, they dramatically reduce your likelihood of getting severely ill and being hospitalised and reduce the duration of disease therefore also reducing transmission. But that only works if enough people are vaccinated that the cumulative effect of that reduced transmission can meaningfully bring down the R0 value.

This pandemic has exposed how few people are able to consider issues or questions at a broader community level versus merely how it affects them directly.

> Thinking about it it seems logical that for a search engine that practically speaking has monopoly both on users and as mattgb points out - tonsome degree also on indexing - serving the correct answer first is just dumb: if they can keep me going between their search results and tech blogs with their ads embedded one, two or five times extra that means one, two or five times more ad impressions.

This would mean that google were measuring the quality of their search results by the number of ad impressions which seems unlikely to me. Maybe in some big, wooly sense this is sort of true but it seems pretty unlikely that anyone interested in search quality (i.e. the search team at google) is looking at ad impressions.
If only HPC counts as powerful then you’ve already quoted that Nvidia and Fujitsu are using Arm under the existing ownership structure.

> If ARM, inc. or Softbank were interested in high-powered chips, either of these companies would have done it by now. But they haven't.

Just factually incorrect given what is happening at the moment with Neoverse.

Sony Xperia TX Problem
Hi everyone. I have a xperia tx and it has android 4.4.3 I think.
It was about 2 years ago that it was my main phone.
now, I forgot the pattern of it.
then I cant turn on usb debugging from settings.
even the phone wont show on explorer but it said connected. its connected but it wont even charge.
ive tried to boot to the recovery mode but it... yes not worked (Booted normally) in the second try it booted into safe boot but... nah. Can someone please help ?
I find it a bit upsetting that in true HackerNews character, so many comment just to express that the author's thoughts are naíve, unfounded, or just plain wrong.

This is what I got from her writing:

1. She hates this because it's scarred her and loved ones.
2. This is invisible though. I think radiation is an apt analogy. It's everywhere all the time, but rarely enough to do damage.
3. But it can hurt you and she has seen the scars.
4. It's very possible that you've never seen it's effects and never will.

And I struggle to see how to disagree with these points. A significant portion of her post is admitting that her description will not be a perfect one.

I feel she openly acknowledges that she could be wrong. And I also feel it would only be courteous for us, the readers, to acknowledge she could just be right.

A bit OT: what kind of performance do you normally expect from OCaml? I looked at the Prime Sieve challenge[1] recently and with the current submissions the Standard ML solution is 3 times faster than the OCaml one. I've also spent some time optimizing this SML solution and got it several times faster still. With a bit more work I thinkg I could get it up to the speed of the fastest C solution. It's compiled with MLton. From that POV OCaml is a bit disappointing, since I've also viewed SML as a "hipster language" that hasn't had that much money put into it, while OCaml saw quite a bit more development, so I would expect the OCaml compiler to be able to produce better code. I've briefly looked at the OCaml code, but I don't know OCaml as much as SML, so can't really say what may be the issue in the OCaml case.

What? There has been significant excess mortality, as summarised here: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/coronavirus-excess-...

My own country alone has seen nearly 300 000 excess deaths compared to the annual average, with the waves of excess deaths neatly tracking those of known COVID infection waves.

I like the design alot as well (EU resident, have had these windows for 15 years)

However, this statement from the article is misleading:

> the tilt configuration locks into place against potential intrusions... In other words: you can leave the window open when you are away without worrying too much about security or the weather.

It is trivially easy to open, from the outside, a window left in the tilted open position. All that you need to do is to pull the window closed and then move the handle from vertical to roughly horizontal (the 'full open' position).

How do you move a handle on the inside of the window when you are on the outside? It is simple, you use a short length of PVC pipe (which fits over the handle) and some string. The details I leave to your imagination.

take-home message: tilted open is nice, but not at all secure against a semi-motivated intruder.
The same happens here in Sweden. Since the implementation of more neoliberalist policies on healthcare, allowing more private clinics and paying clinics based on diagnosis created a perverse incentive to overdiagnose patients.

There was a case of a clinic that performed unnecessary surgeries and procedures just to rake in more tax money.

The problem isn't socialised medicine per se, it's trying to mash a socialised medicine system with "market forces", it's the ideology of the Third Way [1] to appease to these neoliberalist policy desires that is crumbling the Swedish healthcare (and welfare) system for the past 2 decades.

Ask HN: Remote/Offshoring – Jobs Unaffected?
It's been 2 years since Covid. We've seen many famous companies (Coinbase, Shopify, I think Facebook as well) announce they're turning into remote first / remote friendly companies. This is of course also accompanied with aggressive hiring all over the world.

However, I cannot say I feel any effect as of yet as a software dev living in a major high cost tech hub. In fact it seems salaries are only going higher and higher.
Not only that, the number of open tech jobs still seems extremely high everywhere in the developed world. In fact, dare I say, it has never been better to be in tech than today.
Where is the big offshoring wave some of us were expecting? Is it yet to come or were some of us overestimating its effects?
Because multipolar times have been sooo peaceful......

Simplicity Is Worth Paying For: Dev Tool Time with Roger Peppé
That's slightly frustrating to hear that Kayak are getting messed about by Google, as Kayak is about the only flight search tool that I've used that suits the airport situation in the UK.

(e.g. 4-5 international airports reachable within 1 hour drive, another 2-3 reachable within 2 hours drive, flexibility to search across all of them).

The other flight search tools that I've used might, at most, allow one alternative airport.

> isn't it still possible for them to design their own cores?

Most companies license the cores, so they can build ARM-designed cores and integrate those into an SoC.

In order to design your own core, you need to license the ISA itself, and that’s a wholly different kettle of fishes: there are only about a dozen architectural licensees, and not all of them license both 32 and 64b ISAs.

> I also want to say the vast majority of news about China is extremely biased and a lot of them are absolutely false.

The majority of news from China about the west is biased and absolutely false. More often than not the west gives China the benefit of the doubt.

Look at the seasonal flu, we know China does not report deaths as 'died of X bought on by Influenza', they are 'died of X'. As a result China's seasonal flu statistics are crazy low. In 2016 it was reported they had 56 deaths, 2017 had 41 deaths, and 144 in 2018. In comparison the US had 23,000, 38,000, and 52,000.

Knowing that they report COVID the same way we know that China's numbers for COVID are more or less a lie.

> Poverty alleviation

Local governments and village leaders have a system to seek money from the central government to be distributed. However there's been reports over the years of families being allocated a fraction of the money and forced to sign the forms declaring they recieved the money, while the money is kept by the distributor.

So alot of rural area's people still live in poverty, but on paper they aren't. So you have to take the governments word with a grain of salt.

Finish what You started, the worst thing You could do is transfer out. From your statement about doing 1st year CS in high school I am assuming You are younger than the majority of students ~19 years old, this comes with its own set of issues and will not be different at any other school.

My advise, work your but off and get that degree, then revisit attending a different school to study in one of the other subjects You mentioned. Having an education in a second area will make You stand out in any industry. I suspect You will have a much more enjoyable time at a liberal arts college once You are a bit older and have the confidence of successfully completing your current schooling.

Some people have a difficult time adjusting from being rock stars in high school to average students in post secondary where it seems everyone is caught up in there own issues and professors are indifferent to new students needs. Don't be discouraged by the lack of social connections in your first year, it will get better as time goes by and the herd is thinned from other students choosing your 1st two ideas. Don't fall for the trap and push through, You can do it and will be better off in the long run.
I worked on X11 applications from 1988 to 1992, including Lotus 123 for Motif. Every Unix machine of the day had a complete X11, it was the big thing.

The PC market had X servers like Exceed, but in 1990 it was uncommon for a PC to have enough RAM to run DOS, a TCP stack and X11. Also the TCP stack was $400 per seat.

As PCs got more powerful, Windows 3 fitted most people’s needs much better, and came with Solitaire.
Oh man I had no idea you could perform actions with avy! Also didn't know you could jump between different screens. All I did was jump to spots, do something, then jump back. The teleport thing is going to be fun: "get over here" yanks line
So I tried Avy actions and they do look promising. I hit a nasty speed bump though. When the following conditions hold:

1. I try to use avy-goto-char-timer with an action.
2. The chosen char is the only one visible on the screen.

Then Avy just jumps to this single occurrence of the char without letting me specify the action.

Edit: Okay, I can switch this behavior off by setting avy-single-canditate-jump to false. Not bad.

I thought so too[1], but I am willing to give the blog author the benefit of the doubt (that Avy is the fastest way). It also seems to me that with Avy the process is a little more uniform and consistent than the way I would do it in Vim (only a little, though).

[1] In Vim, I would do the Filter->Select->Act cycle as *'/<pattern>qq<modify-pattern><esc>q'* and then use 'n@q' for each modification, or 'nn' to skip to the next modification.

For simple patterns (for example, adding a parameter to a function call) I won't even bother with the recording, I'll do a flurry of 'n.' or 'nn'.
So apparently the check_cols parameter didn't help either?

I'm trying to learn about the critical pain points of dbt, and this case seems interesting.
