Oh nice! Yeah this is basically the same design/intuition that this project also started out with (I also just wanted some way to combine the benefits of aria2c with piping). Wish I found this earlier lol.

I only later decided to look into also parallelizing the tar extraction as well. This originally started with looking into making a change to the GNU tar source code itself. However upon cloning I realized there were a lot of design choices in tar that made the assumption of single threaded execution (global state, etc). At this point I decided it would just be easier to re-implement the tar extraction myself using golang's "archive/tar" package.
anybody got a link to the spreadsheet? I'm not necessarily interested in the abc commentary; I just want to see what the original author thought important to track.
It looks like I don't have that option. Here's another dead one that shouldn't be: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30168888

For me, the top line reads

Perhaps you can vouch for that one?
Out of broken search actually. Pretty amazing.

Wow that's insane and horrific. Were you able to claim unemployment?

ublock origin seems to do fine.

Wouldn't this hammer the generators with brief load changes? I guess generators are already hammered by sudden load changes all the time and capacitor banks smooth that out somewhat. And in the best case this could spread load more evenly across time, reducing stress on generators. But there will certainly be edge cases that are not predictable where the load jumps up and down very fast. This also seems likely to introduce a new noise source into the grid, at precisely the frequency of the inverse of the packet duration/size. So where switching noise is currently a low frequency random pattern it becomes a higher frequency synchronous pattern. In addition to standard 60Hz noise (in the USA, 50Hz other places).

Seems like the wear on the generators needs to be studied as well as the noise characteristics before any substantial deployment. It's a neat idea regardless!
> this is an unnecessarily negative comment

I'd argue this is simply an unnecessary comment altogether.
Next week’s argument: “all first gen self driving cars are going 70 where 55 is allowed, we need to keep this setting.”
And just in case it is lost on some people, Nippon is one of the possible pronunciations for Japan (日本) in Japanese. The other is Nihon. No, the Japanese have no consensus on the name of their own country.
It really surprises me that so many people who have seen UFO reports all their lives cite this as nothing but humorous stupidity from a politician. People who follow satellite data in order to understand global patterns of earthquakes and weather saw what looks like beams from unknown sources hitting areas that then caught fire. As with anything else this is very likely to be some kind of sensor or transmission glitch that simply needs to be analyzed in detail to find some mundane explanation, but it is worth acknowledging that the whole business emerged not from the political foolishness that got attached to it later but from hobbyists trying to explain genuinely peculiar data. Even when people talk about UFOs or space lasers it is worth taking in and trying to explain the actual data.
There's a mass systematic bulldozing/demolition of whole lower/working class neighborhoods happening in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia right now. Locals use Twitter spaces extensively to discuss, organize and share stories. Twitter spaces needs to have a way to join in in discussions anonymously to say the least.

You can split the extra margin 50/50 so your motivations are exactly equal.
Ill never forget when the Iron Dome was first rolling out, this rocket researcher on the internet said it couldn't be done. He explained it pretty well, and I was convinced. Search google for Iron dome doesn't work (looking back to 2010-14) And yet, it does work (mostly).

So basically what I'm saying, this stuff is hard, and few people in the world can even verify your claim, never mind have access to the tech or AI behind it. But i'd bet with the Israelis.
This has been the criticism leveled at Google for much of the past decade.

I'm trying to remember if flavour-of-the-monthism has been endemic to technology going further back. I can think of Apple's Newton, possibly Microsoft's Zune.

The age of services seems more prone to the issue in that a given product --- software or hardware --- can persist independent of corporate enthusiasm, and in many cases cult followings emerge around specific artefacts --- devices, vehicles, films, books, long after they've been abandoned by their creators. Even massive flops (the Edsel, New Coke) don't leave their enthusiasts completely stranded.

The closest earlier analogue I can think of might be utopian communities, which launch with grand hopes only to, far more often then not, either fizzle quietly, occasionally imploding spectacularly. In a Drinking the Cool-Aid sense, that might actually be fairly apt.

With a service that requires hamsters to keep spinning the wheel, not so much.
"Sorry, this job is no longer available."
Oh no, laptops thermal throttle all the time. As do most of the desktops.

It's part of normal operation for any CPU/GPU released in last 10 or so years.

There is a reason why intel advertises a regular and "Boost" clock speeds. Boost clock is not sustainable without heavy duty cooling and the CPU will throttle down once it's heated up.
In New York, the highway norm is 13-15 over for the "I want to go fast but not get a ticket" crowd. (i.e. 80 in a 65).

AFAICT, the reason is that there's a big jump in the median fine if you're going >15mph over the speed limit vs <= 15mph over. Economically-speaking, it's not worth the police officer's time to pull somebody over who's "merely" 10 over, because somebody going 16+ over will appear in a few more minutes of waiting.

Interestingly, the state website says the official "maximum" fine bump occurs at 11+ mph over. I suspect they wait for 15mph to rule out the plausible cover stories "I was only going that fast to overtake the other car" or "new here, I didn't realize the incline was so sharply downhill with nobody in front of me".

You probably wouldn't get pulled over for going 80-82 in Washington (i.e. they people passing you probably have their cruise controls set for 80), but it might be less enjoyable of a drive. You have to pay more frequent, closer attention, because you're overtaking people more frequently.

Ironically, California dives deep into "low fines for speeds under 15 over". the under-15-over fine base is a meager $35! For 16-25, it jumps to $70, which is still paltry.

Have you tried compiling Linux as User Mode Linux with emscripten? I imagine something like this https://github.com/nabla-containers/nabla-linux would run on wasm, too?
> it sounds like you are extrapolating an awful lot about some folks

Can you help me understand which of the things I said come across as an extrapolation? From my perspective all of it is a factual description of what happened with basic reasoning applied.
I am willing to hold a computer to a higher standard, that’s the promise that gets made left and right for self driving cars. That they achieve a higher standard.
Sometimes I forget that the Gell-Mann amnesia effect exists, which is concerning given how much weight I give to HN's comment section. I implore you to read the article for yourself at least if you haven't yet.

While I agree with you, I like the improvement in Solana of verifying transactions on the GPU. I wish Bitcoin would do the same at least for signatures. We’ve reached the frequency scaling limit of CPUs, and the protocols we use should reflect the direction hardware improvements have taken.
The problem each container takes more resources.

I once threw myself in front of a cruise vehicle to test it for safety. (That’s a bit of an exaggeration, I saw it coming, sped up and jumped into an open parking spot on a trajectory that would take me in front of I didn’t stop) It performed admirably. The safety driver didn’t see me coming but the computer did. The car decelerated to the point it would be able to stop if I kept coming. The safety driver couldn’t figure out what was happening at first. He was PISSED when he figured it out.
Having done that and having never seen one commit an error or safety infraction, I now have a high degree of trust in the safety of cruise vehicles.
Of course I would like the consequences of a mistake to be minimal, but I also don't think drivers of large vehicles should automatically be assumed at fault and penalized just because they like to drive a large vehicle. Even the GHSA report's own solutions primarily focus on driver and pedestrian awareness programs and non-vehicle related solutions as opposed to more sensors in a car.

EDIT: They do suggest automatic braking solutions but even those can be hampered by inclement weather which large portions of the US are subject to. The last thing I want my car doing is locking up my brakes on a slippery road because it sensed a possible pedestrian.
Please e-mail me - I am very interested in this space and have worked with Garfield and some of the designers at Games Workshop as well.

Not sure where in that statement I referenced hiring funnels.
It doesn't have to be a case they can win to be extremely troublesome for you (though they probably could win if their trademark is embedded in your code). Unless you can afford to make your own lawyers rich, it's a bit unwise to go "I dare you" to large US companies. Better to ship something less incriminating, and leave the spicier suggestions for anonymous comments on web forums.
Hehe, I remember telling an American friend about 10 years ago that I was really into dubstep at that time. She was appalled and couldn't understand why a somewhat decent person like myself could listen to that kind of music. Much later, it dawned on me that she was thinking of US bro-step like Skrillex, while I in fact was listening to "UK Bass Music" like Benga and Skream and Digital Mystikz and Loefah.
Apple Maps was terrible and Google was ok.

Fast forward a few years and Apple Maps is now ok (not super but definitely usable) and Google Maps tried to kill me a few times by guiding me to go opposite direction into a highway or into buildings or other wrong directions. The data is super inaccurate on Google Maps.

In Apple Maps it at least shows no road instead of generating roads with completely wrong data.

...and then what. What will they do when the rockets get faster, shinier, more erratic in flight...or any of the other things mentioned on this thread? I'm not going to pretend I have the solutions to the Arab Isreali conflict, but this is at best temporary. My best guess is the long term solution (if there is ever one attempted) will be more related to why people are motivated to launch rockets at their neighbours.

Outside of running the Chrome process itself, you can't defeat fingerprinting. Even headless use can be detected.
When I was in Vegas last I called for a "driverless car" via Lyft but instead of an empty car a male driver with a second man riding shotgun showed up to pick me up. The entire scenario made me feel sketched out so I refused to take the ride because I've seen so many news reports of people getting assaulted by drivers. I and many of my friends would feel more comfortable with the option of a driverless ride so I definitely understand the appeal. I'm excited to hear how this goes.
I like to tell people that reggae artists (more specifically dub artists) created electronic music. I don’t know if it’s entirely true, but there is some evidence to suggest this.
When people talk about "lying with statistics", this is what they mean.

Because when people hear "50% of the infected were vaccinated", they're going to misapply the symmetric property and assume 50% of the vaccinated were infected. Even though these are entirely separate things.

Edit: You realize that I'm agreeing with the person I'm replying to and providing a slight paraphrase to what he's saying, right?
Cool! Thanks for your response. So would you suggest Lispworks as a good development environment for new Lisp hobbyists who aren't keen on Emacs?

When i was a youngster, back in linux kernel 2.0.33 days, I hacked my kernel so that it spoofed traceroute.

When it was going to send an ICMP time exceeded, it would change the source ip to the next one in a list of curious ips. Simple change but taught me heaps about network programming, the kernel, c, etc..
Sequence read archive has been such a boon for developing reproducible biological pipelines without having to worry about data. A paper references a dataset by ID and I can use it as input for my pipelines and keep the raw data locally only for as long as its needed to generate analysis within the running pipeline. I can even set threshold levels of how much local or cloud compute resources should be used at a time if I didn't want to exhaust my systems with one job.
Who is interested in javascript online editor https://playcode.io/online-javascript-editor (playground)?

I have been working on it for 5 years, but it turned out to be impossible to make a startup alone, competitors such as CodeSandbox, StackBlitz, Glitch bypassed me with larger resources, So I am looking for:
- a partner / partners of a javascript developer with a strong desire to make a startup.
- Investments.

Multiple beams creates a different problem. Say your beam is 1cm across and you are aiming at a 30cm target. All your energy is in that 1cm. You don't much care where in that 30cm it hits so long as it burns through. But with two lasers, to be effective, each beam needs to hit the same sport on the target. Instead of a 30cm target, laser #2 now has to hit the 1cm beam of the first laser.
The problem in enjoying the "cross-pollination" is that it never rewards the founders, and often rewards others that deliberately copy the overlooked artists.

Many modern works completely lift sounds and rebrand them as founded by someone else new. That is where the problem lies in modern appropriation. It's sad that social media now encourages people to completely copycat ideas and totally steal credit for innovation...

We should support original culture and artists just as much as those who sample them.
I worked at a company that started to go through the "you can't improve what you don't measure" phase. In general it was good for the org I was in, but I used to have to remind management that there's a corollary to that saying, which is: you necessarily improve things you measure at the expense of the things which are difficult or impossible to measure.

This seems to be a hard one for some types to truly grok. A common response is that we need to figure out how to measure it, thinking there was some single magic number that things could be distilled down to. But often even if you figured out how to measure some of them, there's always other intangibles you're not tracking. So you need to always be conscious of it.
Now we're just left wondering what's a "sleng teng". Teng is maybe "thing", so we're left with what's "sleng". Searching for it I'm corrected to "slang", and if I force "sleng" then all I can find is the song itself.

Both. I swapped a city coop for a similarly priced house in Westchester and the tax bill quadrupled.
The idea that you’d add a feature that’s clearly illegal blows my mind. “Product poses legal risk to user” is a specific risk severity rating that mechanical engineers are trained to flag in school. Any other engineering company would have caught this in their DFMEA (Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis). These sort of sloppy failures show that Tesla is far from a path to competing with major car companies on reliability.
Wait, so you're saying that people would crash into you if you drove the speed limit?

I'm a very calm driver and regularly drive at or sometimes below the speed limit if visibility or other factors don't allow higher speeds. People do slow down and I never felt in danger - granted, this is usually at around 40 km/h instead of the limit of 50 km/h, but I can't imagine people are so careless they'd "run you off the road" if you weren't speeding.

I'd say fundamentally you don't even know which choices matter and which don't. People are very smart at tricking themselves otherwise though :-)
When that's the case Apple Maps would be a better choice as it doesn't try to suck all your privacy into its ad ecosystem.
Are you sure they're not doing this to get approximate location for use with A-GPS? Sure, GPS will work without it, but your time to first fix is going to be much longer, and your phone will have no idea where you are while you're waiting for that fix.

There's a good overview of A-GPS in module 5 here [1]. This is just how people expect GPS to work on modern mobile phones, to the point where they'd probably consider it a bug if they had to wait a while to get a fix.

I have regarded the entire Google Maps dev team with utter contempt since they first combined maps and navigation into one app, thereby preventing you from using both at the same time.

At this point I'd rather use a paper map then let Google wardrive using my phone 24 hours a day.
Woulda been ZDTV in the 90s. Man I miss that channel. It all started going downhill after the first name change.
Point well taken, I meant physical / proximal socialization. I would contend that most forms of socialization over the internet are lower quality than a candid conversation with a stranger in a car ride.
