The most plausible explanation I've heard is that after going through JFK's neck and most of Connally's chest without striking bone, it was significantly slowed down so that when it hit Connally's rib and wrist, it was with less than full force so the copper jacket held up better. Warren Commission tests on comparable bullets showed them staying relatively intact even when striking solid wood.

This is a situation, I think, where people's intuitions don't line up well the reality of full metal jacket ammunition, which by design is supposed to deform or fragment less than softer slugs.

You can make up your own definitions of things as you like. It's a common rhetorical device to divert a conversation into a swamp. Me, I'll stick to commonly understood meanings.
it requires an override anyways in case of emergencies like a fire.
Well, "work" is a broad term. It can mean a paycheck, the gulag, or that todo you've been putting off because you want to finish the show. Lots more as well.

Some are meanings are constructs, but some are limitations of complete communication from a single English world.
That’s what it was before this update.

Now it is a full development tool that lets you release commercial apps.
What happened to Swift on sever ? Looks like Rust sucked the air out of Swift in recent years.
I'm not at all convinced this is an extremely rare use case. There are hundreds of thousands of Christian pastors, priests and ministers of religion who would probably find this very useful. There are a lot of Christians who would also find this useful, for themselves.
I don't mean that these things need to manifest in exactly the same way as they do in C++, but analagous features are needed. You're right that rvalue references are not necessary, but some form of move semantics are. When I say constructors and destructors, I am really referring to having a concept of object lifetimes as part of the language. Zig does not have this, and is much simpler because of it.

Edit: to clarify, the thing that makes a constructor/destructor useful in this case is the property that it begins/ends an object lifetime according to the language. This lifetime reasoning certainly has benefits, like the ability to have const fields in C++ and the ability to do static checking of lifetimes in Rust. However it also comes with significant complexity, because move semantics are needed throughout the language, and begin/end lifetime tags are needed when implementing data structures that use preallocated backing arrays.
Brother printers are consistently reliable and high quality, particularly the laser jet ones. I highly recommend getting one that doesn't have a scanner also, they just do one thing, really really well.

So, to be clear, the government can keep tabs on what my child watches. Google can keep track of exactly what my child watches. Twitter can filter based on its morals, what my child can see and share, as well as monitor everything they read and watch and say.

But I, as the parent that is actually responsible for the child (and may face lawsuits if I don't) am not allowed to do any of that.

Got it.
The wave length of the photons also goes into it yes. I’d have to look up the precise formula. But it’s basically larger aperature -> smaller angle of separation. Longer wavelengths -> larger angle of separation.

From a physics point of view there really isn’t much difference between light and radio waves. Both is just em radiation. But the absorption by matter (well really gas, there is nothing else) changes with wavelength too. And you’d optimize the ccds for whatever you want to look at. So that would be the primary consideration and keep in mind these things tend to also be build as tech demos (which also means you typically don’t get to realize all design capabilities in action). So “because it’s the most we could get away with” is a reasonable reason
It sounds absurd because it is absurd. Think about the absolute control that would be necessary in order to stop our computers from working with arbitrary data. Obviously this logic cannot be applied to the physical world.
> The person I was responding to is only spreading a theory that SFs problems are just a GOP meme.

That's fair, he doesn't live here, but I can vouch for his idea that SF woes are exaggerated for political purposes.

I used to live in a very conservative part of California and they used to talk about how the Bay Area is an expensive shithole. I had to move here due to work and was surprised that everything here seems to be about the same price. You get slightly less apartment for the same price, but price floor is pretty much the same. The roads are definitely not as nice but taking public transportation is actually feasible option here. Homelessness mostly hasn't been a problem except for those two areas in SF and Oaklamd, aside from there it's only slightly higher than other major cities I've been to, with the possible exception of Vancouver, where it's actually better.

Hopefully my anecdote has enough detail to convince you that I'm at least being honest :)

> For them to be true, you’d have to accuse the people reporting their experiences of lying, while taking the poster I was replying to at face value. That would be delusional.

Yeah I agree, I reached the same conclusion as that poster by experience, but you definitely shouldn't take it as fact based on it's assertion alone. I think he was just throwing it out there in hopes of starting a discussion, but that's definitely a charitable interpretation.

> I’m taking them all at face value, unless there is evidence to the contrary.

Statements like these remind me of the old saying from a bygone age "only a fool would take anything posted here as fact." Anonymous internet posts have no bar for entry and as such, should be treated with extreme skepticism.
> Does my insecure computer compromise hacker news?

Probably yes, if you access HN via ssh with root privileges.
Thanks, nice catch! I will update that.
ok sure, but unix is still here and perl died

there's a subtle thing about perl that's not mentioned often, which is how it borrowed ideas from many other tools and that made perl "intuitive" to learn for people who knew the other tools. But once you're embedded in just perl for awhile, you forget the other tools and then perl's grab-bag of borrowed ideas becomes sort of burdensome, it loses "intuitiveness".
But they all start at the same anchor value, I was immediately able to interpret them and did not feel misled.
Voluntarily using it. Not sure what is not benign about this.
> there was no centralized organization to indicate an insurrection,

I think that I remember a man behind a microphone on TV telling people to march on capitol,

And some publicity for months saying that the day N something great will happen so stand "prepared to fight"

And people collected in buses paid for somebody,

And a purpose to hunt for somebody to hang him

And to stop the vote count

And some minions clearly videotaped while driving the masses,

In resume, a certain level of organization that would fall directly in the category of: clear planning, purpose, choice of a non random symbolic date and execution.

I think that we all could guess with a fairly accurate level of probability the name of that non-extant organization and even the names of the main instigators.

But we could also just pretend that nothing passed, and allow a second chance to try it again, probably with a higher body count this time

> They were not guns

Several people were videotaped carrying spears or baseball bats to the capitol for no reason, and using them as weapons, and those actions ended killing a policeman, so... who needs
guns when you can smash somebody to death?

But don't worry, they will bring plenty of guns the next time.
Yes, Sirhan Sirhan, the man who conveniently "forgot" everything leading up to and including the shooting itself.

Strangely enough, years later his attorney's argued that he was framed. Even RFK's son, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., believes that Sirhan Sirhan was framed and did not actually conspire to kill RFK. He actually wants Sirhan Sirhan released [0].

Panel owners aren't the only group that would get cranky about unbundling. Some non-solar consumers also reap effective subsidies from bundling costs into per-unit charges. Rural customers in low density areas would have higher bills if they paid for infrastructure explicitly. So would customers in dense areas who consume only a little electricity each month but still need the infrastructure to work around the clock. Customers who live in urban or suburban areas and consume a lot of electricity would see their bills fall. Since this latter group tends to be more affluent than the previous two groups, charging each customer proportionally to their incurred costs is also likely to be perceived as unfair.
Their hair straighteners are also awesome - the only brand able to put a curl into my wife's hair.
I'd say that technology has had a deep and profound impact on all of them.
With Python, benchmarks that matter are what's the maximum performance you can get out of a particular hardware in the most optimal configuration for the tool in use. (This was most obvious with the async framework benchmarks)

Perhaps other WSGI frameworks are not achieving 100% CPU load and FastWCGI is, and you could easily run them with multiple worker processes to get the same CPU load and comparable performance? (this is just wild speculation)

I don't know, but that's the kind of benchmark I'd like to see: eg. what's the maximum performance you can get out of a, say, 4-core CPU with each of them with whatever configuration stresses the CPU completely, and what are the other metrics you might be seeing (eg. asyncio will basically net you lower memory use, but not any better performance in RPS)?

It'd also be good if the benchmark tool is not running on the same CPU though, as long as you've good a sufficiently fast interconnect.
I mostly have a similar set of requirements as you. I swap out the need for a dGPU with a nicer display, though. Framework sounds amazing for the reparability, almost to the point that I'm willing to overlook some of that other stuff.
You have personal liability either way if you are the one writing the code, marketing to customers, etc.

I second this. I bought a brother multifunction laser printer several years ago and it consistently works without fail, works with built in drivers on Windows and Mac so there’s no funky packages installed, and their toner lasts forever.
We are going to see a culling of the herd over the next 20 years. Electric will expand, gas and gas taxes will increase dramatically as the CO2 reduction's urgency emerges. Smaller engines might do better - huge gas hogs might not last as prices increase and demand decreases.
Many will buy used cars and car lives will increase as more repair what they have.
I've got a higher-end Brother laser printer with no other functions integrated and it still frequently gets confused. Just doesn't feel robust or solid.
There always is
I switched to using NetNewsWire as an open-source alternative and have been enjoying it, the mac desktop client works great for my needs. Had previously been using feedly for quite sometime, had contemplated upgrading but honestly didn't feel compelled to pay for an rss service. I sync my feeds via icloud and it works fine between desktop and mobile
Looks like a great effort, but there's two things I don't understand:

1. Is this for X only? That's all I see mentioned on the page. If so, that seems like a pretty big waste, Wayland is definitely the way forward and efforts like this will only delay that even further.

2. That said, I use Wayland on my XPS13 in Gnome, and touchpad gestures feel pretty great already, comparable to a MacBook in my opinion.
No. We are talking about the ads system. That is completely opt-in.

You are talking about their 3PA (Privacy-preserving Product Analytics) telemetry system, which has nothing to do with the ads.
I don't understand what this guy wants, his dad had to bring money to the table, was probably depressed for loosing a wife and a daughter which is more depressing to the father than to the child. Give him a bit of slack, the fact that he was still functioning at work is good enough, loosing a kid put a a hole in a father heart, to expect him to be normal is just clueless
it seems that this was going to happen vaccine or not
I assume that toting along a SFF desktop is a non-starter? Assuming you can get any GPU at a reasonable price, it is possible to build a relatively small and light desktop for less than a gaming laptop, and still get better performance. The size / weight will be greater though, and obviously it assumes you have a keyboard, mouse and monitor at the destination.
And yet, they don't explain what the issues are. A bit hard for him to tell what the issue is if they don't say what the issues are.

Sure seems they don't like him to me.
That's very libelous of you.

You may like you and your young children being able to stream unlimited hardcore pornography to their iPads, but that doesn't mean other people have to like and allow it for themselves.
The facts are that Oswald was working for US intelligence his entire career and was not the one who actually pulled the trigger to kill Kennedy. The official position of the US government is that there was a plot amongst many individuals ie. a conspiracy to assassinate the president.

Rust?

A lot of people say Rust improve the game (I'm one of them). I have coded in +12 langs all my life,. Rust totally remove tons of issues (for me) that were present in the past just before shipping and even after.

And I port the same project. The kind of issues I get of the Rust codebase are a fraction of what I has.

And I think many studies show it?
Funny, I feel the exact opposite way. The low level stuff is where all the magic happens, where performance improvements can scale by orders of magnitude rather than linearly with a CTO’s budget. I’d much rather figure out how to condense some over-engineered distributed solution down to one machine with resources to spare.
On what grounds? It's their platform
> Nobody is questioning the benefits of structured logs here.

The guy I replied to was literally saying we should only log plain text and that doing anything more complicated is "emblematic of the crisis the industry is in".
Hmmm, straighteners, put in a curl, sounds defective.
Also, Dyson products feel incredibly cheap in the hand to me for the price paid. You can just feel how many cycles of cost reduction each one went through.

Expensive products are one thing, but products that are upmarketed primarily because a big name wants more money, rub me the wrong way. It shows a disdain for your customer.

I feel holding him up as some guru perpetuates this annoyance.
I used to be a big fan of Ubuntu, up until apps just stopped working because the UI refused to function. Something something pixbuf something. Never had the issue once since taking the time to get acquainted with Arch. So glad Ubuntu broke for me.

Starting with Arch taught me way more about Linux than anything, and also had a factor in starting me on the path of using Emacs, and a tiling window manager.
Would love to see benchmarks comparing this to FastAPI?

Thanks for this project - will definitely be keeping my eye on it!
There was little or nothing in WebRTC to match what we'd spend 5 years creating. So they were back to 1-5 people in a conference, with 1-3 second connect times, and no resilience to network changes.

The excuse they gave was "We can't rely on 6 people in Iowa for our core IP". So they switched to some open source mix node that was the pet project of 2 guys in Italy. Two academics, who gave it hardly any attention. And it had zero IP; just a collection of APIs stitched together to give you the impression of having a mix node.

We said all that at the time. But such was the power of the magic words "Open Source" that it all bounced off their mental shields.
They tell I only use 10% of my brain, must be only the good part I'm using. ;)

No, it's called a 'straightener' but it's a generic tool for controlling the shape of hair - can straighten or curl - both are intended use-cases.
The categories you are discussing are probably too broad to say "nobody is working on solving this.

Let's go through each of the areas you list

1. Housing - how about lowering the cost of building? https://all3dp.com/2/3d-printed-house-cost/ What will 3D printed housing do for building communities? Does it move laborers into finishing (less time framing and bricking) and increase their average wage?

2. Health - so many health start-ups, but you have to pick one thing. We work in sleep-tech, it affects so much of your life. But I used to work in telehealth, how about all the genomics, cancer...how on earth did health make your list? VCs are plowing money into health. If you're in the US, and you are complaining about your healthcare system, that's maybe a different issue. I'm not US based.

3. Inequality - I'm not a fan of this label as the issue, I think targeting quality of life is more valuable. If I have a great quality of life, should I care how much somebody else has? Can we look at improvements in cost and delivery of education as creating value here?

4. Unkindness - Well...look at all the mindfulness stuff that's out there? There have always been, and probably always will be assholes. I'm not sure what technologies role here is.

5. Bllsht jobs - Stop worrying about what everyone else is doing in their jobs, and focus on yourself. I ran a metaverse company from 2017 - you would probably call that a BS job, and I'll admit, I didn't meet a lot of people through that experience that made me feel we were having a big impact on the world. Now that I'm in healthtech with a very clear focus, I find I'm meeting amazing people who are also doing world changing things.

Rather than wondering "why is nobody doing anything to solve these problems", I suggest you pick a problem you are particularly passionate about and figure out what you can do to help. Once you're in those communities, you'll probably see just how much people are doing, and be inspired by the people that are doing it.

All of the above is not to say there aren't a TON of people who are wasting their lives building another dating app, or an app that measures your clothes for you, etc etc. But we have a huge population on the planet, don't worry about what they're doing. You do you.
I think Jitsi group calls can be end to end encrypted, provided all participants use Chromium 83, per https://jitsi.org/security/.
>Personally I just think that a Linux that's for everyone is simply not Linux as we know and love it anymore.

Android is Linux for everyone, it’s imperfect and it’s nice in many ways, but I don’t run x86 android on my computer.
It's not leaked if the employees volunteered their own information with the intent to share.
Well, the worst product I own is one of his bagless vacuum cleaners. The crummy look and feel, the unbelievably loud and high-pitched whine and the accompanying tinnitus-inducing higher order acoustic harmonics, and just the overall plasticky shittiness of it after about an hour of dragging it around is simply vomit-inducing.

My pet hate is the 100x added friction between the retractable bristles and my plush carpet. It's costing me extra in time and energy to push this thing around.

My next vacuum cleaner will instead be a janitor-grade Nilfisk.
The lesson I took away has never abandoned me. Not only can people in power be badly mistaken in matters pertaining to their fields of expertise, but internet communities can dig into a situation deep enough to figure out in real-time that said people in power are wrong.
Well, I have seen and done some projects already, too. And tons of ideas for new ones, but am currently occupied with something else. What I am doing right now is looking what is out there.

So I am quite open about plattforms, but actually I would prefer simplicity. But powerful.

Something that has the potential to run WebGPU in a decent way (once that becomes stable).
Hm, personally I consider "object lifetimes exist" to be completely different than "constructors", which are a hook into a specific point in some sort of object lifetime cycle. Rust doesn't have the hook, so it doesn't have the feature. Note that I didn't put destructors on my list; the Drop trait does exist in Rust and is the same general idea as destructors.

I guess that basically, to me at least, if you've stretched the definitions of these features far enough to include what Rust does, you don't really have a meaningful definition any more.
The article specifically mentions that they operate the infrastructure for relaying encrypted video streams for up to 40 participants.

I can also select media quality on iOS. My options are "compressed way too much" and "compressed too much". I assume you have the same options.

I would like to be able to attach images as files and have them come though unmodified. It is a general purpose communications tool, it should not be editorializing over my attachments.

I use Signal to communicate privately with my attorney. Why does anyone think tampering with evidence in transit is okay?

Apple also doesn't support open source in the App Store, so I can't fix the problem myself.

Not to be taken badly, results you post are amazing and point at a greatly optimised request handling! But with these benchmarks you do not demonstrate the practical value over any competing tool (just that your worker threads can do more in the same time, which is more of the "good engineering" pat-on-the-back type of thing :).
Eh, the multifunction one I bought a year ago told me the toner was out and wouldn't print until I reset the counter using some obscure menu process. I have printed hundreds of pages since then, so they apparently are into scamming just like the rest.
Uhm, cooperative cross-context channels are a dime a dozen just running on any CPU, nevermind in a browser. I don't see how this is interesting, or surprising. Modern computers are not MLS-style systems where it's supposed to be information-theoretically impossible to pass information unless permitted by a formal model.
Very smart idea and great execution.

Allowing to experiment quickly on infras/devops knowledge is the key and tools like Ansible are useless for that.
