I hope you don't mind a critique; I struggled a bit understanding what your site was about. Took quite a bit to figure out it was an encoding scheme, after being confused whether it was a start-up or a library or what.

You're answering the questions a visitor has in a sensible enough order:

1. What is it?

2. Why should I use it?

3. What does it look like?

I think the proportions are off. In terms of detail, the first question is answered in a brief slogan that is very easily glossed over because it's put in a place where very little informative text usually gets put, then the second question gets a huge amount of space and details and the same points are repeated multiple times with different phrasing. Everyone claims to be "fast", "simple", "effective", "secure", "private", "cheap", "future-proof", "optimized", etc. It very easily gets dismissed as noise when you are at the same time scanning the page for clues as to what it even is about. It's hard to make a sell when what you're selling isn't clear.

Maybe you could overlap 1 and 2 a bit, somehow. If it had said "the encoding scheme is easy to use" rather than "easy to use", my question would be largely answered.

My sites aren't a marvel of intuitive navigation either, I don't claim to be better, but it's sometimes hard to see sometimes how other people view our sites.
> My favorite is, "we have no record of people trying to use IPv6" - yes, that's real :D

Have you ever worked at a IT department for a medium to large company? It’s usually a total shit show. IT gets blamed (justly or unjustly) for any issue with computers. As a result they become rather thick skinned and incredibly conservative in the projects they undertake.

So it’s not surprising that folks are unwilling to spend time on something they don’t have prior art for, haven’t operated before, and doesn’t offer significant benefits over what they already have.
Mine is a bit more complicated, unfortunately (me from 6 years ago had so much ambition, and implemented all the things)

Also this:

Wait, what? :)) I'm not ready to deal with something like that (just to make sure it doesn't come as arrogant, I mean I just don't trust myself)
Thanks for sharing this perspective. A few years ago, I started learning C with the aim of contributing to GNU coreutils and other utilities that come with a GNU/Linux system. I read most of the K&R book and thought I had a decent grasp of the C language but when I cloned the coreutils source code, I couldn’t figure it out and gave up, thinking I’d need a lot more experience before I could understand production-quality code. It’s reassuring to find out it wasn’t just me that struggled with the complexity of the code base.

Since then, I’ve discovered (thanks to Hacker News) Decoded: GNU coreutils¹, a “resource for novice programmers exploring the design of command-line utilities” but unfortunately, I no longer have the capacity or free time to spend on coding.

Hi HN!
We have developed new technology that helps companies to track the vulnerabilities in open source software they use, without sharing or integrating anything in the codebase.

This will help companies to be ready from future Log4J attacks.
I’d love to get your feedback?

GP here. I didn’t mean that EU should break it up. I had said “EU and other regulators” to mean the ones in the U.S. too. Other replies here have provided more substantive options that the EU could exercise to force Google to break up. I’m not saying it will be easy or quick, but it’s possible to make Google’s business more painful.
A few of these reasons boil down to "it's faster to not NAT". That makes some intuitive sense, but does anyone know of any studies/tests so we can get numbers? Are we talking higher time to first connect? Slight increase in hops/latency on every packet?
You are mistaken, this is literally - word for word - my imagination of what managers do.
The OP does mention "being in the zone" as a possibility. He just says that it's rare, inherently not applicable to many kinds of work, and requires optimal conditions that generally don't apply. It's very much the exception, not the rule.
I wonder if, read charitably, the intent is to say with a strong enough effect a small statistic size doesn’t necessarily mean useless. For example, if I removed the hearts from 9 living people and they all died, I can conclude people need their hearts to live.
On Covid, I suspect that partisan differences have been quite small, at least among mainstream parties! But of course, politics matters desperately in some circumstances. For example, the 2019 UK election and 2020 US election were extremely consequential, reflecting the issues at stake and profile of some of the candidates.
How many times have you known this to happen?

And how are you currently preparing your company against a solar flare?
This is not quite a fair comparison, as the example in Rust is hard-coded to find the fifth power. A more exhaustive search would need to also check 3rd and 4th powers.
Here is how I explained the current tablet ecosystem to my mother the other day:

1. There are Amazon Fire tablets which are cheap and useable for watching Netflix and Prime Video but you can't expect too much from them.

2. You have Apple's entry-level iPad which is a great tablet for most things at an affordable price.

3. You have Android tablets. They are often more expensive than the iPad, and offer less performance and value.

4. Then there are Apple's premium iPads, which cost more but offer more features.

5. There are also Windows tablets which are basically like Windows laptops without keyboards, and many of them do not offer good performance.
Your understanding is correct. My point was only that the claim "picker picks from the same box" is incorrect.
John Milton was famously fluent in both. Paradise Lost is written in the style, form, and diction of an ancient epic. It also biased towards words with classical roots
"Human reproduction would eventually cease to function without artificial wombs as selective pressure for natural reproductive fitness disappears"

> The Ford mustang and Cadillac escalade have adopted rear independent suspension for the first time in the last 5 years.

Those are rare outside of the USA for a reason.

> Tesla's have adjustable height, adjustable response, and 4 wheel independent suspension.

Which were pioneered by Citroen. Who ironically arn't know for reliability, but we can surmise from this report that even Citroen are more reliable than a tesla.
As a fellow 2018 Model 3 owner (70k miles), I concur.

If you look at the reasons CR gave them a low score, it's fit and finish + the HVAC system (which have seen some pretty drastic changes since our vehicles in 2018).

My experience, brand new the condenser pump was too close to the frame (causing a knocking sound). A mobile tech came out, added a rubber pad, and it's been perfect ever since.

When I read the consumer report article listing panel alignment as a reliability issue, I'm suspect. I'm not trying to ignore the fact that it's pretty terrible for tesla to pay so little attention to these things, especially at the price, at at the same time the issues these cars have are generally both cheap/free to repair (especially since they are often caught at the point of sale) and then done for the life of the car.

Side note: My prior car, a ford edge, was WAY worse in reliability towards it's EOL (130k). By the time it got there, the fan belt had cut through the brake line (Um, wtf?), the brake master cylinder had sprung a leak, the alternator went out, the battery died, and the transmission was on it's way out, the HVAC failed and the compressor needed to be replaced. All fairly spendy repairs from regular operations. That's not to mention the regular oil/fluid changes, brake changes, and new tires.
>For the past quarter-century, the American Medical Association and other industry groups have predicted a glut of doctors and worked to limit the number of new physicians. In 1994, the Journal of the American Medical Association predicted a surplus of 165,000 doctors by 2000.

Most residencies are paid for my Medicare funds. The 1997 Balanced Budget Act capped the number of residencies that Medicare funds, which led to fewer physicians. Who pushed for the cap?

>Lawmakers received cover from the American Medical Association (AMA), the Association of American Medical Colleges, and other major stakeholders in American medicine who endorsed caps on funding for residents and other graduate medical education programs. In March 1997, months before the Balanced Budget Act was enacted, the AMA even suggested reducing the number of US residency positions by approximately 25% from 25,000 to fewer than 19,000. “The United States is on the verge of a serious oversupply of physicians,” said the AMA and other physicians’ groups in a joint statement

https://qz.com/1676207/the-us-is-on-the-verge-of-a-devastati...

And also in the past they have lobbied to shut down medical schools which led to shortages in the 60s. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMhpr033066

They have recently pushed for more physicians but those changes will take time.
Well ya, “entry level”, you said it yourself.
If the secure OS had the same development velocity as the OEM profit OS, the secure OS would be much better optimized than it currently is and likely much much more secure, too.

Android and iOS are optimized in general and for example Google or Samsung also optimize and distribute it for specific hardware. GrapheneOS is not well funded and has little influence in hardware development. The development of Graphene from AOSP is pretty much guaranteed to de-optimize it in the short term.

While there is little about mobile that would cause a secure OS to be noticably slower, much less mature software with many fewer deployments is expectedly less optimized.
What kind of firewall work didn't have default drop? Once you take that off the table you really do have a problem but I've only seen that one in 20 years of professional work.
I don’t think there are C compilers out there that do not optimize at all.

AFAIK, all of them will do some register assignment, some constant folding, etc.

For example, if you write

void f(int a)
{
int b = a;
b = b + b;
g(b);
}

are there compilers out there that compile that to

- load a
- store into b
- load b
- load b into another register
- add
- store into b
- load b
- call g
- return

?

Languages that do overflow and range checks such as Julia and Rust in debug mode would have to add lots of them there if they do not do any optimization.
I'm not sure why Google should be any more or less accountable than Microsoft when malware lands on a Windows PC.

Both provide some minimal level of malware protection but make no guarantees and rely on users to scrutinize app sources.

Apple makes somewhat stronger claims of protection so there may be an argument for a higher level of responsibility on iOS and MacOS:

>...users can access these apps on their Apple devices without undue fear of viruses, malware, or unauthorized attacks....

>...all apps are sandboxed—to provide the tightest controls...

>...helps to ensure that these apps are free of known malware...

>...macOS includes state-of-the-art antivirus protection to block—and if necessary remove—malware. [0]

I'm still not sure that a claim of legal liability would hold up in court though.

Unfortunately I don’t think the various manufacturers would ever agree to such a thing. It’s a relatively easily solvable problem if you own a 3D printer though. There are a ton of adapters available on thingiverse already to mix and match batteries between them.
I was basing my comment on this:

> 20 short functions definitely sound as though they should be explicit.

And you are right that it's pretty arbitrary when/if a lambda should specifically be tested or not. But the number of lambdas in a project isn't really a good factor to make that decision - it's individual for each function that contains a lambda.

> Perhaps we should be glad that politicians and the media do not emphasize the limits of politics. This could be counterproductive, fuelling disengagement and populism.

Why is engagement or "populism" still an end in itself, if it makes little effective difference? I can imagine its not "engagement" per se, that is desired, it is discipline. (Edit) Isn't this precisely what failed on January 6th? People (for mostly delusional reasons) were angry at a break down of politics itself, in their mind.

The sports analogy makes sense, but there are economic interests there, on the part of the owners of the teams and the league, engagement by people to an arbritray cause translates to more tickets to the games, ad revenue for the broadcasts. There is maybe a distinction there, at least.
Why and how would they even do that?
https://github.com/woachk/dockerinstall for a very minimal install, stuff other than that is unneeded for Windows containers.
That's backwards. They shouldn't use your self-described ancestry to choose which tests to give you. The test already has the ability to determine that better than any human.
This issue is relevant to all countries, not just the US...
It's a waste of time for sure, but it's clearly written by a British author about British and European politics, so that label wouldn't be quite applicable either.
It's interesting to me how trendy "diversity" is these days, and it's always in the context of race.

It's interesting how we don't ever think of diversity in terms of class, wealth, disability, etc. An Ivy League educated black person and an Ivy League educated white person are far more similar than a poor white person and a rich white person.

And yet, it seems as though we don't really care about hiring people from poorer backgrounds, maybe without college degrees, etc.

Besides, complaining about diversity in a place where there's just demographically not going to be that many minorities is a bit unnecessary. If your company is based in Duluth, Minnesota, which is 90% white, campaigning for a racially diverse company just seems kind of futile.
Things like this don’t matter. Tesla buyers will continue to buy them because other cars simply do not compare.

People have been talking this up for the better part of a decade. “No automotive grade screen” and stuff like that. But if you are in the market for a Tesla, the substitutes are all not good enough yet.
>Didion wrote the essay as the magazine was going to press, to fill the space left after another writer did not produce a piece on the same subject. She wrote it not to a word count or a line count, but to an exact character count.

Even using a movable type system, I don't see why matching a specific number of characters, rather than lines would be necessary.
The specific test is expensive and they do not cover it with our single payer healthcare, so they don't recommend/do it unless they have to.
It's funny that every European Tesla owner I know are happy with their car but American media, twitter, and reddit users are busy telling us we are wrong.
What does the use of NFTs change in the transaction?
This looks nice but doesn’t seem to come close to the kind of structural understanding of code that you get with statically typed languages with a fixed syntax.
Does anyone have an explanation about "reason: to own your IP addresses" .. does that actually work?
Well, that struct is that toaster, or its memory layout declared in C syntax, including all the game's global variables. It's surprising how many there are.
They probably wouldn’t support that. Most non software heavy companies outsource these sorts of projects and to make changes to their systems requires a bunch of upfront capital costs which can be expensive so they will push back against changes unless you are big enough to force them to or you convince them of the merits of such changes.
Well, I have been waiting 6+ months for my Enyaq now, I could have had a Model Y well before… this leaves me not that worried for my Tesla shares…

Interoperability, security, and privacy. Without all of them, handling a smart home is creating more problems than it solves.
I would rather say "I think so" than "I don't think so", but leaving a small room for doubt.

But that is lying, of course. You're basically saying "no, I haven't seen it" -- just with a bit of a spin on it, for the sake of plausible deniability.

Not that's the wrong thing to do here - I agree that that's exactly what you should do (if your main goal is to get the job and grab the money).

And in fact that's exactly what these companies expect you to do.
Scratch a little deeper into the reasons CR gave it a low ranking. Panel alignment and HVAC system problems.

Both of those things are pretty fixable after purchase and are (generally speaking) one and done problems.
Remember that in Python you can mutate `globals` to change the meaning of arbitrary symbols. It seems like a lost cause if you are running a compromised library.
Yup, the means to solve climate change and electricity the US already exist, but people don't like them for stupid reasons.

US has an irrational dislike for overhead wires, for both trains
and trolley buses (ubiquitous enough they have Unicode)

This isn't a problem of technology, and we can't "innovate our way out". Our dispersed suburban land use pattern is simply a mistake, and impossible to make efficient.

Efficiency comes from:

* Electrified freight rail for cargo transport into and between cities and buildings

* High speed intercity electrified passenger rail

* Frequent, automated subway and heavy rail in cities and their peripheries

* Frequent, ubiquitous trolleybuses to bring people to rail stations

* Dense apartment buildings with good noise cancellation which share heated walls, and use heat pumps for heating and cooling

* Renewable electricity

* Flights for trips >500km, taking passengers from several nearby cities who take high speed rail to the airport

ALL OF THESE TECHNOLOGIES EXIST TODAY, we just need to be willing to adopt them. Because these technologies exist today, there is no sense in "waiting for technology to save us". We need to choose to adopt them, and abandon our inefficient policies now. These will always be the solutions, and we are just in denial that we need to adopt them.
No point in having FU money if you don't occasionally tell someone to fuck off.
In the article they state they charged it at 1C, which is 1 hour from 0% to fully charged (200kw for a 200kwh battery). Who knows what the final numbers will be, but very promising if true.
Huh? I'm not stating any personal opinions about race in the workplace here, and I don't appreciate you casting me as having done so. I was saying that you seem to have misinterpreted other guy's post as a false contrapositive.

Note the "I think the point was," and also the "If I'm interpreting GP properly."

Let me make it clearer for you:

"If the canary is alive, there's oxygen."

That was the GP argument. It's not the same logical proposition as,

"If there's no canary, there's no oxygen."

Please drop the flagrant language. You're way off base.

> Support for IPv4 addresses (::0.0.0.0) was removed, because IPv6 users were able to connect to IPv4 hosts directly, bypassing IPv4 NAT's and firewalls.

How's that work? It can't be sending actual v4 traffic or it'd work like normal v4.
What I often see omitted and think is just as important long term: recyclability, cycle life and cost.

These will impact the resale value and the lifetime costs of the car. The second-hand market will be crucial when it comes to widespread EV adoption.

You really tell this story well. I could never voice my frustrations with cloud that I've had diving back into code lately. But you nail it - it's a time suck that really is a different Cloud DevOps (tm) skill set. Literal moment of personal clarity for me rn (however obvious this may be for the outside world and how dumb it might make me look). Seriously, thank you!
> The secret is this; whichever party is in power, policies tend to be similar. In other words, government ideology has little effect in areas such as taxation, welfare and foreign policy.

There may be some areas of government that see relatively few differences, especially in the machinery of the bureaucracy. But in other areas the article's thesis couldn't be more wrong.

Taxes, guns, COVID lockdowns, abortion, and many other issues have laws directly attributable to what party is in power.
I ran into this same issue back in the day. Mine ran OK on KitKat but Lollipop made it pretty much unusable. I opted for a stripped down CyanogenMod Lollipop and that restored much of the performance.
At least at my public schools, languages weren't tracked, unlike the other subjects (i.e. one level for everyone, not A/B/C or Honors/Advanced/Standard). Tracking is controversial, but those classes were circuses. The teacher has to cater to the lowest common denominator (or the lowest 25%-ile at most) and can make excruciatingly slow progress. The high performers get bored and also start causing distractions. It's a rough job and it seemed like it had high turnover.
IPv4 addresses have utility. You still need one in order to participate in the largest communication network in the history of the earth. And theirs a limited number of them. Demand + Scarcity = non-zero price.

What utility do NFTs provide other than entertainment/status?
> Not free as in free upgrade, but free as in free to download and install and use on any compatible machine (only Macs, of course).

Let me repeat that:

only Macs, of course

So then it...

* IS just an upgrade. Those Macs all came with an OS originally, didn' they?

* ISN'T actually "free": You have to buy a Mac first. They cost money -- quite a lot of it, compared to most other PCs, I've heard.
I fully agree with your sarcasm, but you probably know that that was not my point.

But seriously, I don't see what's so controversial about it. It's just "do this, then take the result and do that, then take the result and..." Everyone understands this intuitively. Plus, lots of libraries already do method chaining, which is just a crappier and inconsistent version of piping anyway.
Arguably an open secret at this point. The duopoly is increasingly organized around hyperventilating that the other will destroy civilization, then upon taking power the GOP passes its standard corporate tax cuts, Dems get a middling infrastructure bill, and both largely do the same thing on COVID and foreign policy.
6 days a month!? Even if an RCT comes out proving this works, I’d prefer to die a little sooner rather than do that my whole life lol

The way I see it, you’re burning something like (6/30)/2 = 10% of your quality-adjusted life years. Fasting had better increase lifespan by 7-8 years to be even close to worth it
>Double the capacity

How can it be double the capacity when the wikipedia article for LFP battery says it has "lower than that of other common lithium ion battery types such as Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) and Nickel Cobalt Aluminum (NCA)"? What type of battery does the stock tesla battery pack use?
Probably the halo effect of ‘doing good’ by driving an EV. It’s like when people choose to use the bank with a less slick app, website, local offices etc but that does ethical banking. The service is objectively worse, but those users probably rate their overal happiness with the bank very high.
