> Dan leads The Dawn Project. He knows more about developing software that never fails and can’t be hacked than anyone else. He has designed, managed, or directly implemented all The Dawn Project technology and he makes all the decisions regarding technology development. The managers below Dan have been steeped in this technology for over 20 years. They know far more about software development than the people below them in the organization chart. And so on down to the lowest level. But even at that level, we have nothing but Special Forces class programmers.

I... I can't find anything that's not simply boosting Mr. O'Dowd. This is clearly a B2B marketing website, not a technical resource. More power to them, but there's nothing here for outsiders.

It's also kind of concerning that software like CompCert and seL4 isn't mentioned anywhere. Academic work in software verification is making steady progress; it feels really dirty to pose as the lone group that cares about this stuff.

I don't really disagree with the ethical or factual material; there's just nothing actionable.
I think it's a pretty innocuous change and I'm not sure it's worth anybody's energy to complain.

Why is it bad that the videos now get slightly bigger when you over over them? The auto-play on hover is not new.
If you remove the epistles, the old testament, and the apocrypha (meaning of questionable origin) you are left with 4 gospels of which 3 are nearly identical. This is what we have left of the teachings of Jesus. Many known gospels were removed during the Council of Nicaea. For instance, the Gospel of Thomas was removed because it was in conflict with the Gospel of John.

The other controversial issue from the council of Nicaea was the nature of the trinity. Many a holy war was fought over this exact issue for hundreds of years.

I understand what you are saying about Paul - but his assignment was to define a jewish sect for gentiles. That is what the epistles were. Paul redefined our modern understanding of Christianity by aligning the gospels with the intellectual class of the Roman empire.

> The umbrella "you are not your code" would dismiss improvement as well. And praise.

I don't see why you think this is the same thing.

Improvement in someone's coding skill is good from a business/colleague/project perspective. And from a "practice paid off" perspective. And positive feedback is always good to give, you certainly shouldn't only give negative feedback.

But you shouldn't get too attached to your code in either case. Today's good code is likely to be tomorrow's bad legacy code anyway. It shouldn't be an "intimate experience," programming for a company is an exercise in utility.
On the other hand, when you get a bit experienced, you have to filter your resume instead of just submitting everything, and the filters are different for every company, showing the things that are most relevant. E.g. some internship or award or early ten years ago should be included if the topic is relevant for the role and left out otherwise; the six different positions you had during your tenure at a large company may be important in one application to illustrate that you have done a particular role as well, and a waste of space for another application.

On the other hand, it makes all sense to have a standard "full" CV out of which to select the things to include.

Why Landsburg’s queue won’t work
To add a little more detail, there are two general resumes you submit to companies in Japan, one is the condensed one that the parent google linked (Rirekisho). The other is a more detailed "Keirekisho" which can be many pages and allows you to go into a lot of detail about your previous work and why you want to join your prospective company:

There is a bit of flexibility with these formats, but they're standard enough—and many teaching resources are available. Most Japanese university students are already using them to apply for companies in their final year. This contrasts with my time at a California university, where many of my peers had no idea how to write a resume even after graduating.

I’ve come around on Figma these days honestly, but will take Paw’s quality over Postman’s funding any day.

I will say as a former Mac developer who came of age and experience during the Carbon Y2K transition days, the fact you can just expect some form of availability regardless of Linux or iOS or macOS or Chrome or Safari is a genuine fucking achievement for the human race, how far and low we’ve come.
I agree that that is one aspect to consider.

Plus, when such large portions of the economy are exporting culture and currency, the US is basically in the business of selling cooperation. So that would fall apart pretty quickly, and with it the immigration the sustains population despite low fertility rates.

Plus it's just inconceivable that it would be a goal in the US. Maybe that's just good propaganda, but I think not.

>The same as creating art. It is the manifestation of your thoughts and opinions, small and large, put out in to the world.

I respectfully disagree. This thought process is why other people are left holding the bag at 11pm on a Friday fixing the 'art' of someone else. Computer Science is a derivative of mathematics. Math is not art. Math IS beautiful, explicitly because it is NOT ambiguous or subject to interpretation. Math is right or wrong. It works or it is flawed.

Programming isn't art.

Let me describe you my use case and workflow. It works within the Wine bottle. My AHK setup is IIRC 1:1 from Windows and does check for window titles, I did not verify it works on Linux applications (I do need to verify this given the IIRC). So what I have is I run WoW within Wine, and then I run within the same Wine bottle AHK (I use repeater features so I don't have to mash buttons ie. not for botting). Unfortunately the latency feels noticeably worse and it also feels I have lower FPS than native Windows plus WoW plus AHK so I run it now in Proxmox + Windows + AHK as passthrough. For WoW addons I use a CLI Python tool called CurseBreaker which uses Curseforge API though Curse got sold to Overwolf and they are closing the API to push their proprietary app (in past, Curse would work in Wine I suppose Overwolf would, too). I also use FirefoxPWA to run Netflix/Prime/Disney+ on Windows which should work on Linux as well. I might retry how the latency is. Cause I do prefer a Linux desktop like Sway or Gnome over Windows though with Powertoys, Windows Terminal, Scoop, and perhaps your tool etc it becomes bearable. (I use macOS as daily driver.) FWIW, I adapted my AHK script to FFXIV which I recently started playing and on Proxmox + Windows it works. No idea if and how well (latency) it would work on native Windows or native Linux.

The killer for me is if/when my mouse doesn't work well enough or latency spikes if video card, so I ended up for the Proxmox setup to use PCIe Aorus NVMe card with two NVMe in RAID0 instead of SATA or PCIe. Now it works reasonably well. I think its related to my board having 20 PCIe lanes, 16 of which used for GPU. But we've come a long way I/O wise for PC (x86-32).

On another note, Blizzard might ban me for Proxmox usage since they changed policy when GeForce Now became a thing (they never did for AHK and I used it for about 10 years now, some of which I played the game intensive but they did do banwaves). Who knows what Square Enix policy is going to be. If they ban me I will appeal, tell them my setup, show them my script, and that I have a swollen nerve on my hand (work related injury). If a human reads it and believes me, at least they'll shake tbeir head concerning their policy. Or so I hope.

On macOS I use Hammerspoon and Karabiner Elements but that machine isn't used for gaming. Similar tools, different purpose. Though I do always rebind caps lock...
Mine does AESIR, DROPT, EVERY, then QUERY for Wordle 205. There are 3197 equally good guesses for the 3rd word (ABCEE / EVERY) on that puzzle, or 336 if you prioritize words on the answer list (which is why I land on EVERY instead of ABCEE).

You can also see performance improvements in processes that do I/O by having a low priority process running that does nothing but run an infinite loop. This keeps the computer from switching to idle CPU states during the I/O. This was on Linux, there is probably an OS setting to accomplish the same thing, but it was pretty counter-intuitive.
There are more problems than just that. The point is that the color converges to a single value, so even as you approach infinity it stops changing.

" Reducing someone's life history to a list of educational institutions and employers feels robotic ... but that kind of behaviour shouldn't be encouraged."

Reviewing CVs is boring. They should be made easy for the human who is reading. Imagine being a person in a human resources department going through 100s of these... If there was a good portable format, that process becomes far more efficient and interesting.

A good interview after the resume has been accepted would go into precisely what you are advocating for -- the life history and interpersonal context.

I just want to clarify where I stand

I’m a huge proponent of Web3 and smart contracts

I just criticize Blockchain as the underlying layer. I am saying the emperor has no clothes. I mean, even Polygon the so-called “scaling solution” for Ethereum is still built on Blockchain, and so stuff like this happened a week ago: https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2022/01/06/polygon-under-accid...

No one asks how many websites or emails per second can happen using HTTP or SMTP. Guess why… there is no bottleneck. There is no block and no miner. The entire network is what’s called “embarrassingly parallel”.

What we need is programmable smart contracts that are on an embarrassingly parallel network. And we would have been there by now if not for the profit motive of the blockchain bagholders. Most technologies get faster and cheaper over time — but first gen crypto had besn perversely designed to become slower and more expensive with time and adoption!

I submit that the ONLY reason people stick with first-gen stuff like Bitcoin, Ethereum Classic, and NFTs of pictures that anyone else can view without “owning” them, is the profit motive based on speculative greed of finding a “greater fool” to buy your “store of value”, followed by the sunk costs of having bought into this outdated technology. The utility is minimal beyond STORING value and the store of value is a self fulfilling prophecy. It’s like if people rediscovered retro video games and speculated with them because they were so rare, except what’s sad is ALL THESE NEWER PROJECTS which have so much promise are pegged to Bitcoin and when its price goes down, it drags them down too.

You’ll eventually see them decouple and then I wonder what will make Bitcoin so much better than a random ERC20 token. Why “store value” when I can grow it 300% a month?

He chose to put a package online. He didn't sign any contract stating the package would meet some kind of quality obligations. He had no obligation to do anything.

Yes, it is particularly shitty to intentionally screw it up. But the system that put so much value on something not happening without any safeguards or obligations is the real problem.

The move fast and break things attitude of web development is the cause. A single rogue dev is just an example of the worst happening. In the future I imagine we will have package managers which do not give random individuals so much power. And we will rely on packages from trusted names, Google for example has a very very low risk of sabotaging a package compared to a no name individual. If companies had paid for this package, they could take legal action against the author. But they paid nothing and had no assurances of anything other than a vague hope it would continue to work.
Except that's next to impossible to short BTC without incurring major exposure to the crypto market as a whole in process. In other words, you can gamble that BTC will go down all you like in the wonderful world of DeFi, but if your gainzzz are in $random_shitcoin then the fiat value of that will also go down the toilet.

The closest you can do is shorting BTC-adjacent regular stocks like MSTR, MARA, etc.

So the earliest C compilers were under 5000 lines of C+asm:

https://github.com/mortdeus/legacy-cc

If you want a minimal "standard committee approved" C89 compiler then David Hanson's lcc and Fabrice Bellard's tcc both come out to over 30,000 lines. To understand C89 fully you at a minimum have to read a ~220 page (14,248 line) copy of the (draft) ANSI standard:

http://port70.net/~nsz/c/c89/c89-draft.txt

I don't know what the smallest C23 compiler would be with all the new features since C89 added, but it's at the point where a single human can't implement a C compiler anymore. It's becoming a language only rich corporations have the wealth and power to implement and steer.

Ask HN: Does Skoda stick their logo over the VW logo on their engine covers?
A while back on Youtube, quite a lot of videos popped up[0][1][2] about Skoda sticking their own logo over the Volkswagen logo on their engine covers. Then, this craze suddenly dropped off and I never heard anything about it.

Those videos also amassed a peculiar amount of dislikes, suggesting this was either fake or people were very unhappy with Skoda about this.

I've always been quite curious about this, and whether or not other manufacturers / companies partake in the same (seemingly quite lazy) branding schemes. I suppose what I'm asking is: is this just standard practice, or frowned upon by the industry, and are these videos fake?
