From Microsoft history of programming languages, VB 6 was definitly the best COM experience so far, for a little while .NET Native and C++/CX got it back, but they are now deprecated.
The extent to which truly secure computing is possible depends in large part on which of the many possible "cryptographic universes" we live in (based on how the algorithmic complexity categories like P and NP are).

You could probably set up some kind of pipe or shell script with your favorite md renderer/compiler in apache or lighttpd. CGI is a surprisingly simple protocol
You'd have to make the points awarded differ with white vs black.

World champs wouldn't have been a lot different other than it would end earlier. If you lose a game, you need to win a game to be even. That doesn't change even if you make it 100 points for a win.

It would impact multi person events more, but not incredibly. I think some interesting options are things like .7 for draw and 1.2 for win as black. Other options are to make 3 move repetitions illegal (now they're a kind of zugzwang). Last option that I like would be to add a time penalty for drawing in future matches. I think chess needs to become less even, and you could do that in interesting ways if you were willing to mess with the time (or even who moves first) in future matches. Incentives to win now (vs maybe win later) should reward aggressive play early in tournaments and make players who are falling behind more incentivized to fight mid tourney.
If you’re already ssh-ing to the database, why not tunnel the db connection over ssh?

It would probably be less effort than updating security rules each time
Holy crap that's devious. Never occurred to me. Do you have any reference to this or is it just a hypothesis? Seems scarily plausible to me.
Many times one wants to encapsulate is to protect. Data is immutable in Clojure, which goes away with problems arising from everything accessible in wild west.
That’s a good question!

He’s published his test protocol[1] so I guess the tests could be repeated for verification.

I don’t think that’s happened yet though or much other peer review either.

The guy running the site launched it as a personal project in the absence of all independent test data except for manufacturer’s claims (and they all claim to be the best).

It’s also worth noting that the fastest tyres in test might not necessarily be fastest in use.

Eg stiffer mtb tyre might roll slower but give more support when going hard downhill.

He’s pretty up front about his test being quite specific and designed for repeatability.

There was a movie in the 80s about two guys who grew up in a fallout shelter with nothing to watch but Humphrey Bogart movies, emerged years later as noir style detectives, and had to fend off mutants from launching the last nuclear missile on earth.

Riding a bike is brutal for jeans too. I had to switch to a more slippery seat which seems to have helped.
The thing with fashion is you can go normcore if you want, the trends are limited to the extreme fringes of the market. Carhartt jackets, Timberland boots, and Levi's will always be available. Is the same true of UX? No, because a few players dominate the market and have the authority to bend all other players to their whim, even when it's not necessarily going to impact them if they retain a functional, usable, but "antique" looking UI/UX.
I still remember the days when buttons actually were buttons.
>How is it possible to peer review a paper when the only people qualified to do so are the one's involved in the research. Seems like a massive issue.

Peer review isn't what it's chalked up to be. Basically it's two other people in the same field saying "There's no blatantly obvious issues with this paper" and even that isn't always guaranteed. Reviewers don't make any efforts to actually replicate the research, crunch the data, etc.
I now use Zola with esbuild + postcss + tailwind, and with the new JIT tailwind, I got cold (not counting npm install) build under 500ms for large sites.

I run multitail with one watcher running zola server and the other one running esbuild.

It is the first time since a long long time that I have a js/css build system that is not impossibly complicated to grasp. I do use a few postcss plugins, but all with default configuration (except tailwind). I did them all, grunt, gulp, bower, webpack... always a nightmare.
I know this article is about rents in the US, but in many European countries we are dealing with the same situation. I'm in the Netherlands, and seeing quite some people leave for Germany where rents are much lower. But rents in Germany are the highest they have been. I'm personally moving to SEA soon, where I am paying for a 4br house what I'd pay for a 1-room student apartment in NL. I can actually save money there, and in a few years move back and buy a house in NL. I'm wondering how long this is sustainable though, isn't the exodus of people moving abroad (whether its state lines, country or continent) for these reasons slow cooking housing prices globally?
Not being familiar with NSGA, I would find it very interesting if your link provided some context/example as to why this intriguing problem matters in the real world. I'm sure it does, I just can't fathom it and googling "NSGA" comes up with what appear to be very unrelated results
On top of that, SSGs appear as magic to newcomers to webdev and many have a really hard time debugging a build error when things go wrong. I've seen it multiple times (especially with gatsby)

If Rust doesn't want the enterprise and game development markets it is ok, there is enough space for all.
I'm talking about a hypothetical other language without ad-hoc polymorphism (in the spirit of the original article comparing Rust against other languages such as e.g. Go) and also in this case without methods. One poster child for this kind of programming is Elm (there are several other even more niche languages that do this as well).
Unfortunately no, I haven't kept notes when it happened.
I think something is not being said here. I'm not sure what it is, but something sounds off. Maybe he not asking the right questions? I mean if they can't fix it they have to replace it. Samsung has pretty good customer service.

Amazing. This message is 12 years old, but I intercepted it just before it was crossing the Russian border.

Also I had a message from Japan in a Suntory Whisky bottle, but I cannot find it. Written in Nipponese it was.

Yep, it worked when Tesla was a scrappy startup and had to cut corners when they could. They're an absolute behemoth of a company now, they should at the very least spend some time making an interior that's actually nice to spend time in.

The 2022 Honda Civic is a masterclass in how to do automotive design right. It's a throwback when it needs to be, forward-looking when it should. The interior is beautiful and I predict it will age much better than these all-screen layouts (which may end up going the way of the phosphor display gauges common on many American cars in the 80s)
Ssh tunnels are so badass. I’ve heard of people performing encrypted db replication through them between data centers
People are too worried about using k8s, containers and what not when they don't even know the basics of firewalls, setting basic permissions on their DBs, etc

Default secure configs help a lot. But ensuring at least a basic auth system is present should be the duty of every developer/devops, etc.
I remember SimCopter as a vastly more refined game than Streets of SimCity was, despite some technical issues.

SimCopter's presentation was beautiful and for the most part classy. Streets was trying to be Mad Max or something.

Actually, I take that back: the AH-64 unlock in SimCopter was classy just the same.

I had the same thoughts as you tens years ago. Kept doing the calculations and renting worked out so much cheaper but I struggled into the market and purchased a house after a year of searching and low balling.

What you are missing is:
- They are not creating new land in New York. New York has reached a critical mass and will continue to grow
- Part of your mortgage payment goes towards principle. That's your money.. you are paying yourself back.
- A mortgage is the cheapest interest rate you will ever get

If you can pull it off a house in New York I would say go for it. Apartments can have better locations and can be cheaper but it's riskier. A house with land will not go down if at all for long.
That only shows how much it is lacking versus proper IDE experiences.

IDEs for other languages provide plenty of capabilities to code navigation, no need to go Ctrl+F.
I am in South Africa. We initially struggled to get the vaccine and first phase was literally a clinical trial for health workers. We eventually did get stock but it seems by then a significant number of the population got Covid. Omicron variant doesn't seem to have affected us as much and surveys have shown that up to 80% South Africans have natural immunity from having had Covid. Yes there are some papers on the topic but government policy does not feature anything related to natural immunity. It wasn't a case of get intentionally infected rather it was a case of getting vaccines later than other nations.
> There is a reason the West is incredibly wealthy and it isn't because our best and brightest are faking it.

The reasons for that can be myriad. Actual or false scientific success of the last 30 years is not necessarily it.

Also, don't you feel the ship has kind of been slowly going down during the last 10 years, wealth-wise ?

This reminds me of my ex gym. About a year ago they put counters on all the machines. After some time they decided most of the machines were not used often enough and should be removed to expand the free weight section (which was comapritavely busy). What the didn't account for was the free weight section was essentially busy with the same set of people who spend all their time at the gym for heavy training.

Myself and quite few others who come by themselves to the gym more infrequently andwere using the machines (you need a spotter for the same exercises on the free weights). Now both groups paid the same for membership, but they essentially removed the ability for one group to train, needless to say I moved to a different gym. By blindly following the data they optised for worse customers (you want people to subscribe but not show up often).
Aside:

> OpenResty XRay

At first I thought -- oh, cool, a suite of tools leveraging LLVM's XRay! But then after digging for a bit, I can't tell exactly what this does or how it does it, but it is not quite clear whether it leverages LLVM's XRay. Oh well, it's interesting enough. Buuuut -- they trademarked 'OpenResty XRay'? Seems like it's on the hairy edge of 'confusingly similar' -- it's definitely intended for tracing/introspection.

OpenResty filed for their trademark in 2020 and LLVM XRay goes back at least to ~2016/2017. OpenResty itself has been around since ~2011? But I couldn't find anything in google regarding OpenResty XRay before 2016.

Anyways, interesting spelunking. To be clear, I'm not suggesting that there's anything wrong. LLVM's license permits this kind of commercialization -- if it were the case here.
Your alternative is not to nuke it, and allow the missile there to destroy one of your cities (or maybe one of your own remote missile sites, but who knows?).
It is available in the advanced filters. The reason it is not in the main filters: there are too few jobs with Clojure.
How can I host my own community these days?
I had an idea about hosting a forum like community on my product website to gain seo and traffic from that. Is there a go to solution for this? I remember when phpbb was the solution but I dont think there will be that many users willing to register on a solution like that now. The most common option I can think of is facebook groups, but that does not help me with traffic to my site. Is there another option or is this idea just not that good?
Was the silo unmanned? Seems weird it was on their property. Not like the government is hurting for land up there.

>I know people often mention localisation when it's brought up,

How so? If they design something that doesn't fit the screen, etc. in another language - it's just a bad design. Localizations have been a standard process for decades already. They can be quite challenging when it comes to bidi, yet most left to right languages are no issue to even bring the topic.
Doesn't the WETH smart contract store all the tokens it receives at its address? Doesn't anyone have the private key of that address?

What Is Canary Analysis?
Paging a semiconductor engineer. Isn't it not necessarily possible to do die shrinks and get drop-in compatibility, particularly for Q rated automotive chips? Moreover, some of these chips eat 5 volts by design and I don't think 28nm or 14nm or 7nm will provide enough resistance for that. Plus, some have pmic or internal power mosfets that are specific to various processes.
I would frame it slightly differently: Anxieties are projections: You have anxieties of certain aspects of yourself, you are afraid to show the complete self, and just be. The degree of which varies by the level of emotional support you received in early childhood.

Anxiety is simply the fear of dying. Anything else is a projection.

In early childhood, if you don't receive the support you NEED FOR SURVIVAL, you develop strategies to manipulate the caregiver to receive that support. Broadly speaking, the first level of manipulation is anger/rage, the second is sadness, the third is resignation/depression, and in the fourth stage you develop psychosomatic symptoms.

As long as the underlying broken self image ("I cannot just be myself, or I will not receive the level of support I NEED for survival") is not addressed, you "stay a child" that needs external support, and continue to fall back into these strategies later in your life, especially in partnerships and raising children (mother/father replay).

So, yes, it is all about "self enhancement".
Can we fix the title of the article please? Landlords raise rents up to 40%. Rents aren't raised by themselves nor are they some sort of natural phenomenon. Real people perform these raises to benefit from the rest of the population that rents. Literally making more money from doing nothing more than before.
OH I wish we could talk. Exactly the same thought here. I often wonder if we are a very small minority. I dont have a problem with cooperate aiming for profits, the world isn't black and white. But I have a huge problem with pretense and hypocrisy.

It used to be Google when they kept their whole "Dont Be Evil" PR, I was making the argument Google cant and shouldn't be trusted to Mozilla 20 years too early. But Apple went from true to themselves in Steve Jobs era to hypocrisy level that even makes Google looking like complete amateur. From making insanely great product for our family and friends in Steve Jobs era, to "enriching people's lives", than "leave the world better than we found it" and "privacy is a fundamental human right".
So here we are, "Sorry Dave, I can't let you do that."

I want cross-platform deterministic fluid simulations (at least in platforms with IEEE 2008 float semantics). What I mean is, I want to run the same software on different architectures and platforms and get the same exact answer. Is that feasible?

Also, are some techniques more amenable to cross-platform determinism while others are more challenging?

Note that Rapier can do this for mechanical simulations aimed at gamedev https://rapier.rs/docs/user_guides/rust/determinism/

Moreover: can I add threads or use SIMD or run on GPUs and still be deterministic? (Rapier can't do that: it runs on CPU, and on the cross-platform deterministic mode it disables threads and SIMD)

I'm not sure if those are considered worthwhile research lines, but this is what I care most.
Pre-COVID there was a couple in Connecticut who transformed their entire house into a sex dungeon and were getting $1500 a night renting it on Airbnb. I bet you could do at least ten times that with a missile silo of sin. No worries about cops or nosey neighbors. Cleanup would be really icky though (shudder).

Nobody should ever use Drupal in 2022 - it is horrible.

They tried to convert the base to the mainstream PHP framework called Symphony - but there is still too much "PHP Think" in the code, lessons of modern web development never learned, abyss of bad practices.

Also Symphony is more of a joke copy of frameworks from other languages, e.g. often security problems in auth code after many years of development, like the coders simply do not understand what they are doing - you should not rely on that as a base. People speaking of Symphony as a "quality framework" have not worked in different IT areas or with different languages most often - it is mainly a small group of french developers that depend on the popularity of Symphony and keep up a cult, but it is still a joke.

If you are a customer and somebody is offering you a product based on Drupal, save yourself some horror.

Good people simply have left the PHP world a long time ago and moved on to different languages and frameworks. What you get today as "PHP Developers" is the underdogs, the people, that can not get good jobs with better quality work experience missing, mostly people from the global south or eastern europe that have been misused for many years by companies that wanted to save a lot of money on "cheap coders" to sell bad products.

Wordpress is still no shining example of good PHP, but somehow the company Wordpress managed to establish a not too bad ecosystem, still miles ahead of what Drupal is - so if you are forced into PHP, Wordpress with near to zero plugins plus the great static export plugin will give you best results.
The food an other resources exists in abundance and so do the means of production and distribution.

All scarcity problems since 50 or even 100 years ago are artificial self inflicted constructs.

We are post-scarcity the moment we simply decide to be.

The reason we haven't and wont any time soon is property rights and everyone who has anything to lose in any redistribution or any change to future distribution.
The weight of the names in this thread is really something. I'm constantly amazed at the quality of what is posted on Mathoverflow. Kudos to them for harbouring such a community.
I find it pretty funny that you would attribute something to the nature of a people after getting a well reasoned explanation of why people act that way and what the effect is, without even going into the argument.
Is this the ongoing saga of car companies refusing to ever actually invest in/update any of their electronic designs?

[edit: the answer is yes]
Obviously there were some amazing physics hacks to make it possible at all to drive a car over the sorts of extreme slopes (and extreme changes in slope) from SimCity 2000 maps, where the ground was always either completely flat or else a 45 degree upward slant. IMHO the physics folks did an amazing job in trying to paper over all those problems, but there was one known driving physics bug that I'm pretty sure we never managed to fix, and it was this:

Setup: in SimCity 2000, put a railroad track adjacent to a road so that the two are parallel with each other. Have them travel flat, then up a slope, and then flat again.

Loading the map into Streets, drive your car so that two of its wheels (either the left wheels or the right wheels) are on the road, and the other two are on the railroad tracks. Now drive as quickly as you can, keeping your wheels on the two different surfaces.

Everything seems fine until you crest the hill at the top, at which point the various physics hacks trying to keep a vehicle from bottoming out as it goes over the hill compound with each other catastrophically, and the car gets launched into the air like a rocket; flying high into the air and super fast, typically wrapping around the entire world a half dozen times before finally coming back down far enough to hit anything.

RE: the DLLs, I don't remember the reasoning for separate DLLs for the weapons, but it was kind of amazing for our LAN sessions; you could create your own weapon as a DLL and it'd just work in the networked games even if your opponents didn't have it (since your client is authoritative over your own projectiles), and they could use any art asset available to the rest of the game.

I remember in particular one LAN session where one of the programmers had made a custom weapon which just caused a mayor statue to smash down from the sky, instantly destroying their foe. You'd never get away with leaving those sorts of holes open in a networked game these days; in retrospect it was ripe for all sorts of abuse. (I don't know whether they hardened that at all before shipping the game, but it was a different era back then)
> we had endless advantages that most projects don't have: almost-unlimited supply of high-skill and high-motivation labor, almost-unlimited support from any tech-partner we contacted with free service credits, almost-unlimited demand from "customers", and a sense of mission that was as strong as I've ever encountered.

You know what would create an even greater sense of urgency? For the US government to offer fifty years of tax free profits to companies and entrepreneurs that industrialize in the US. Subsidize the factories, bring in immigrants to help. Let companies repatriate international profits for free to further assist.

I've brought this up on HN before, but have been cautioned this might run afoul of the WTO. The more I think about it, though, would it really? And as net importers, do we care?
Put it in neutral or use a handbrake. You are blinding those behind you. Especially annoying in the rain.

Auto-hold is helpful with automatic gearbox. I find it helpful in a car but driving almost any pre-2010 manual car requires mastering the clutch and hill start.

I’d not call auto-hold critical, neither would I call the “defogger” critical for that matter.

The only two critical things in a car would be in my book: working brakes and tires in good condition. Everything else - meh. If it has a minimum 3 wheels and a steering wheel, I’d drive it.
