I think the question might more be the potential mischaracterisation of the world record being 18 and the female record being 19 as a "gender gap".

It would be instructive to understand what happened that would warrant that use of language.
I don’t think it’s a matter of trends, we have to look at the particulars of each API.

OpenGL/WebGL aren’t well enough aligned with modern hardware to serve as a cross-platform graphics layer.

That’s where the newer APIs come in. Vulkan, Metal and DirectX 12 all follow similar principles that would work from a technical standpoint, but we live in an age where platform vendors would rather cripple their platform than make it easy to port software. Apple is the worst offender here, because while Microsoft isn’t happy about it and disables it in “metro” apps, at least they don’t prevent GPU vendors from shipping Vulkan support for normal “desktop” apps.

But I’m optimistic about WebGPU: It’s designed to be efficiently implemented on top of the vendor APIs, so platform vendors can’t block it. And it’s low-level enough that it should allow implementing modern games on top of it.

(To clarify: I’m optimistic about WebGPU as an API for desktop applications. For browser apps, it seems like all vendors are on board already.)
How is a third party web server that accepts anonymous requests the same as a private feed directly to the hard drive of a friends computer?
I too am using a Nokia KaiOS phone (8110 in my case) from time to time.

Two flaws of the device that I think would make it hard to use as a primary are the short battery life (far from the fabled 10 day charge of yore) and the short key travel distance that makes it very easy to do multiple presses by mistake. The second thing is particularly annoying when entering your PIN (if you decide to use one).
VU Amsterdam halts China subsidy over concerns of academic independence
Ask HN: What's Happens to Yesterday's curl submission?
Yesterday, a submission gain a lot of tractions/comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30011382. The link is about the possibility of adding JSON specific command line options in curl. There are a lot of interesting comments and the submission quickly raised to the top HN rank. A few hours latter, the title of the submission has been changed and the submission is now below rank 50 or lower.

I'm ingeniously curious about it. It seems to me that this kind of submission stays longer in the HN high ranks. Does the HN also detects something about it?
The Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam (VU) halted a subsidy it receives from China for the Cross Cultural Human Rights Center (CCHRC) after concerns were raised about whether the center's employees had academic freedom to carry out their research.
I forgot which podcast but someone mentioned it was their opinion that alcohol is a social lubricant and that without it we'd be waring and fight more. IIRC the podcast was talking about research in Asia, China in particular, where people gather after work at the drinking place (bar, tavern, whatever) and via alcohol they open up, negotiate, apologize, learn details and reasons that weren't spoken at work.

The point being, if true, maybe the without alcohol the world will go to shit (unless we find substitutes).
Where on earth are you getting that notion?

K8s operates just fine on 1GB nodes. It's very low overhead.

You can operate it on a single node cluster, but that's generally not recommended, not for performance reasons, but for redundancy.

The reason larger nodes are recommended is that k8s is for fleets of applications. If you are only talking about a single service, then a k8s cluster is overkill.

K8s is the cheapest way to run a fleet of microservices.

> I personally believe birth rates are falling not because of easy birth control, but because the Earth is already extremely over populated and resources are increasingly scarce per capita.

People don't really make personal choices based on global level data. So I'd say there are two problems here:

1) is that there is enough to go around without wrecking the environment. For instance, it is markets that cause famines, not crop failures - a fairer way to distribute food (and organise its logistics) would ensure that nobody ever starved. Likewise shelter and so on.

2) People are mostly choosing not to have children (in rich countries) because of the precariousness of their own existence. Why have kids when you can be fired when the market turns and be left to a hostile welfare system? Why have kids when your landlord's right to evict you is considered more important than your right to a stable home? The real choice people are making is about not having children who might end up living in poverty. Secure people with rights have kids: the parents of the baby boomers are a great example of this, choosing to have big families after the war because they were encouraged and facilitated in doing so.
"new way of working" on iphone is using fork to move soup from your pot to bowl instead of ladle, that simply doesn't work

"paradigm shift" to golden cage is not a good thing, apple intended to take all responsibility from users but at a cost of being unable to do anything efficiently
Exactly the same has been happening on the Linux side of things with GNOME, which seemed to remove features with every release until there are just barebones left. They too decided to follow Apple blindly. For this reason I moved to KDE Plasma a long while ago, and apart from a couple of complains I have been quite happy with the configurability.
Once in a rare while there's an ad which makes me want to buy something but I don't know if it's worth all the noise.

Something really sad is that sometimes you search for something you actually want to buy like, say, winter tire chains for your car... Then you end up buying them but for two weeks you keep getting ads: because the system has no way of knowing you actually now bought some at the petrol station down the street.

I run pi-hole now: works great and seems to at least take care of the worst offenders.
On the point of "useful legitimate practical use", I can send or receive money cheaply and easily anywhere in the world without any type of account or identity verification.

> Every law that can be circumvented by a ridiculous trick is either void, or the loophole has to be closed.

California did something like this with window tint violations. It's illegal to have your windows tinted darker than some amount. In the old days, if you were ticketed for this, it would be a "Fix It" ticket. You get the tint removed, have a cop sign off that the violation was corrected, and pay some nominal fine. ($25, I think)

Almost everyone who got one of these tickets would have the tint peeled off, the ticket cleared, and be back at the tint shop the next day to get it put back on. If you like your tint, then true cost of the ticket was $225 or whatever.

Now the ticket gives you an option! You can still correct the violation, have it signed off, and pay the fee, or you can pay a larger fine and not have to demonstrate that you've cured the violation. They probably figured if the driver was going to go through the expense of removing and reapplying the tint, the state might as well see that money.

Wasn't really a loophole, per se, but it was a circumvention that the state decided to eliminate buy allowing you to buy an indulgence :)
Intel to Invest at Least $20B in Ohio Chip-Making Facility
I believe you can get away with much less, but this is something that concerns me as well. We deal with customers that want Kubernetes, but the management plane uses more servers/VMs than is required to run their code.

There is mini-Kubernetes implementation, but I don't know if they're any good for production.

There seems to be a limit to how small you can go with Kubernetes in my mind, and most people never need to cross the line where they're large enough that Kubernetes makes sense. It's honestly a niche product, but right now it's being viewed as a catch all solution.
Best advice would be to go for it! And more practically - get phone numbers and emails of those you want to stay in touch with
Ah, but WASM is Java for the haters, so it sells much better at the bytecode shop.
it makes sense to compare WASM to Docker or other container runtimes but not Kubernetes.
FWIW, in addition to the other comments, I believe that it's the first time it's been done by a woman in a microlight. That may or may not change your mind, but it does require a significant amount of skill to pilot something like that for so long, handling so many different conditions.
> The reason we have speed limits and drugs are illegal

Are very different reasons.

Drugs are illegal because of big alc biz lobby, religious interference and orchestrated mass hysteria. The effect: the police can target any group, search them hard and lock some up because "drug". If the police would search hard in Beverly Hills they'd also find a lot, but they choose not to. It gives the police the power to hurt any group they choose because we all do drugs.

Speeding is an offense because it causes harm to others in some cases. Also there is an environmental impact. You choose to roll your car in public roads, you need a license, a proper car and to follow the rules. Cars can be seriously dangerous for other people on the roads. And it is in most cases "an offense"! Not a crime. You get a fine, not a jail sentence.
‘The Greens want to take our meat away’: Europeans go to war over their dinner
Eating food is not "addictive"

Oh, it most definitely is. Or to be more specific, eating the "wrong" kinds of foods (typically fat and sugar) is addictive.

Also, unlike other addictions, you get bombarded with billboards and television ads for the thing you're trying to moderate.
"just roll back" gets risky when you roll back more than a few hours in many cases.

Frequently the feature you want to roll back now has other services depending on it, has already written data into the datastore that the old version of the code won't be able to parse, has already been released to customers in a way that will be a big PR disaster if it vanishes, etc.

Many teams only require developers to maintain rollback ability for a single release. Everything beyond that is just luck, and there's a good chance you're going to be manually cherry picking patches and having to understand the effects and side effects of tens of conflicting commits to get something that works.
"Source: look it up."

Those are the best, especially on controversial subjects. You basically say, that first you learned in catalan, that valencian is just a catalan dialect - and then you was influenced by people from Valencia who told you otherwise and for some reasons you rather believed them.

The question is, why should anyone here also believe those friends of yours? It just sounds to me, you have been influenced by different ideologies - as this is a politically loaded subject, where people usually do not apply scientific standards to a discussion, but rather emotions.
Let me quote the text for what I consider "judging" (in the sense of making a presumptuous claim about or characterization of a person or group):

> What is even worse is that the CL community tacitly accepts [the behavior of the person I
am arguing with] as normal behavior.

This is making a judgment about what behavior "the CL community" accepts. (Unless you believe "tacit" includes anybody in the world who doesn't participate, in which case it's a vacuous statement.)

Let me quote the text for what I consider "chastising" (in the sense of "rebuking"):

> [In light of the tacit acceptance of said behavior,] I would like to see the CL open source community pause and consider what constitutes a healthy community.

He believes the community had not acted properly or communally, and would like everybody to stop and think about that, almost as a parent might admonish a child for his or her behavior.
> My biggest concern with K8s is how the entire ecosystem is a costly affair. Can I run a service with multiple nodes for 10-50$ per month?

If your service can run on few nodes, do you really need a scheduler like K8s? Why not go serverless like Fargate or CloudRun?
Why would you write x < -1 without a space?
> Because you need to name stuff like session ID cookies, loadbalancer backend cookies and other stuff that is necessary for operation

No you don't. You don't need to ask for permission for data you collect/store that is strictly required for your business to operate.

Key word: strictly required.

Meanwhile these leeches have latched on on a more nebulously defined "legitimate interest".

For example, if you need fraud protection for your order-processing business, you have a legitimate interest to process and store more data than is strictly required. Since such legitimate interests are innumerable they are not explicitly defined in the law.

So, the parasites clamp things like "siphon your data and sell it to the highest bidder" under "legitimate interest". Which skirts the law, and will fall apart under scrutiny.

For me as a roblox user/programmer, the most annoying part of this was,
that their desktop development tools refused to run during this outage,
because they insist on "phoning home" when you launch them.

It is annoying, because the tools actually run perfectly fine on a local desktop,
once you are past the "mothership handshake".
I spent that week reading roblox dev documentation instead.

Hear me out - unpopular opinion. Banning targeted ads wastes everyone’s times.

Ads for things that have zero applicability to me are a waste of my time, the advertisers time, everyone’s time. We’re not going to ever live in a world without ads and I would far rather they be an actual service to me, presenting me things I actually think are cool and might like to buy.

A well targeted ad can be a net positive to my life. An ad for something I would never use, ever, because it doesn’t apply to me is a net negative.
I think this outage was made worse by them not being properly in a big cloud provider.

In a cloud provider, having a few people working simultaneously on spinning up instances with different potential fixes, running different tests, and then directing all traffic to the first one that works properly is a viable path to a solution.

When you have your own hardware, you can really only try one thing at a time.

It's the blog's author that calls these dumb phones. Just trying to keep with the original post terminology.
Nim is a far richer and higher level language that, like Zig, can run arbitrary code at comptime, but it also has templates and macros. But Zig does have a some things like "import a file imports a struct" which are unique to it and reflect its devotion to cross-compilation as a first class feature: every Zig compiler on every host can compile programs for every other host (at least within the Tier 1 support). Nim can't do that and I don't think any other language can. And its import mechanism is pretty standard, simply making names visible to the importing file or block; the names aren't organized into nested structs as in Zig.
Basque is a completely different language, there is no real debate about that one. It is not even a romance language. If you want to look for politicized linguistic debate in Spain, try Valencian vs. Catalan :)
I agree. I don't find it's hard in Java.

But with that being said, in the JavaScript world, the tooling treat developers more like "users" rather than "engineers". For example:

- Many documentations are cohesive, well-thought, and well main-maintained.

- There are usually handy shortcuts for things like `npx` or `npm i <package name>`

- And many other improvements strive for developers' life-quality, such as call back-end and databases with strong typing, but without messy code generator at the same time.

Meanwhile, I have worked with Java and C# for quite a while, those documentations are so daunting, they feel like math textbooks from the Soviet Union. And companies like Microsoft never bother to fix their blur resolutions for SQL Server Management Studio and such. It's just like nobody cares, and they make working really feels like screwing codes on production lines.
Even better, we should ban all ads.
Source is probably some 'trust me bro'-channel on telegram.

If there is no official information, then any kind of speculation has to be taken as intentional poison these days.

In fascinating times we live...
It appears I may be wrong about this. Wikipedia says otherwise. But I clearly recall being told that by my math prof.

Oh well. Sorry.
Hear me out. Perhaps it's not about the ads per se.

Agree 100% on gaming, which is why my team and I at Wonder Interactive are creating a suite of optimization tools and a hosting platform for Unreal Engine developers to to target the browser using WebAssembly, with WebGPU and WebXR support on the way for UE4 and UE5. We’ve already got some demos online that are really impressive despite only being WebGL 2 (OpenGL ES 3.0) for the time being. With WebGPU, it’ll enable desktop quality on par with what you’d except from Vulkan, Metal, or Direct 3D 12, except in Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox.

The future of gaming and the metaverse is cross-platform and free of walled gardens, with developers empowered to distribute directly to their end users online without a middleman required. The reinvention and subsequent golden age of high fidelity 3D browser games will be upon us sooner than most realize.

I think the AOL search leak reference is this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AOL_search_data_leak

Even if you take more care than AOL did in anonymizing your data, the unfortunate reality is that any publication of data increases the knowledge an adversary has at identifying somebody. Anonymizing is more about reducing the chance someone is identified than guaranteeing they never will be. And high dimensional data is particularly hard to do so in a way that retains the data's usefulness.

If you want to be informed of product suggestions you could sign up for a service like that.

Determining what is considered an ad is going to be tricky.

"Targeting" and the associated data collection is much easier to determine and codify into law.
Yes, but that's the sensible part of your comment, not the part I was obviously disagreeing with. (And no, the troll is not the one who first uses the word.)
This is clearly nothing to do with regexes. Pretty obviously a mistake.

This is in no-one's dictionary "chastising" (random dictionary plucked from search):

As for "judging" - this seems proportionate. E.g. while I think your judgment is poor when you use these words, I don't think a valid criticism of your comment is that you are "judging" anything. By this definition, almost everything anyone says is "judging".
Is anybody in this discussion advocating alcohol as a staple food?

A staple food is something that makes up a dominant portion of one's diet; it's beyond a mere common or everyday food.

A staple food, food staple, or simply a staple, is a
food that is eaten routinely and in such quantities
that it constitutes a dominant portion of a standard
diet for a given person or group of people, supplying
a large fraction of energy needs and generally forming
a significant proportion of the intake of other nutrients
as well

I would certainly agree with you that alcohol is not a very safe choice for a staple food!

I also miss the documentation (man files) of the BSDs. They always seemed clearer to me than my current Linux counterparts.

I'm talking about the dialects of these languages (in the case of Catalan, Valencian and Balearic), which according to some constitute different languages altogether. But the same people who say these dialects are a separate languages, don't say that dialects of Spanish (e.g. Andalusian) are a separate languages, even though the degree of differentiation is roughly the same in both cases.
I would remove the rules that aren't related to quality and safety and let the market figure it out first. Making things better for people to effect change is a better starting point than making things worse.
