LO has a lot of room for improvement. I am confident it will improve. I use it in a way that is pretty incredible and goes beyond the uses people are discussing on HN.

I have watched developers of the project discuss what they are working on and seen their various presentations on things they've improved over the years. Some of the flaws cause all sorts of performance issues that have recently been fixed. It will get better and better with each passing year so long as they continue to receive funding.

LO is one of the best opensource projects in my opinion.

It is unfortunate that FOSS graphic design software (outside of blender) is no where near my opinionated standards. Just imagine if the Affinity designer / publisher software was on linux or became opensourced due to some legal issue. What a world that would be.
The collective action was motivated by greed, they were very up front about that, including Roaring Kitty. The "elite" that held similar positions in GME got rich too, there wasn't anything dangerous about it.
At Infinidat, we help enterprises and service providers empower their data-driven competitive advantage at scale. We are a leading provider of enterprise-class storage solutions.

We are looking for a Go developer with K8s experience. Our very small group builds custom DevOps and K8s tools for our customers (think Fortune 100). The work is varying and challenging, but quite interesting. This role is 100% remote for someone in the Americas or Europe.

Storage experience is a plus, but not required.

Electric cars, space internet, tunnels, and reusable rockets all seem pretty real to me. The progress he’s making towards his other aspirations seem pretty real as well.
You're insightful, so I appreciate your point of view. Act upon it, as your thought is very relevant. I think that a hybrid approach is best; we should keep older items alive while simultaneously making them disappear.

I just love the youtube comments on this. They were satirical even just after the talk posted.

"This crazy art form corresponds to the crazy significance MAgic Leaps technology will have on mankind.
IT IS THE NEXT BIG THING WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR."

...
oh, fair enough. I've gotten that comment before and I'm still wrestling with it. But you outline it simply. I might just need to give a clearer heads up in the app description for starters.
This is one of those post where I'm happy to see so much people disagreeing, except I'm not sure we're disagreeing. Your key sentence is: ... except in the most superficial sense... That is exactly the barrier Ada needs to overcome. If people take the time to really look at Ada,they'd see its actually quite reasonable.

But if someone asks what language to learn, they start with shortening the almost infinite list of languages to something worth looking at. This filtering process happens in the crudest possible way, based more on feelings and hearsay than on verified facts: How big is the ecosystem, how will other people look at my code, ... This proces delivers, say, about 10 to 20 languages worth actually spending time looking at them. That's the hurdle Ada has to jump. This is a marketing problem.

If you look at rust, the work done by Mozilla and people like e.g. Steve Klabnik to put the language on the map is enourmously valuable. With code examples, blog post, fixing real world pain points, answering questions, .... It took years but they did it. If Ada had a group of people and a bigname organization, all doing this work, it would be a completely different story.
It's clear that it "may operate on a local or remote host" and in this case you run a local thread. Just how much is actually implemented is not clear at all. A lot of frameworks are written to be "extensible" but the extensions are left as an exercise to the reader...

It is nice to have a self-contained example that you can run on your machine, but I think an example that actually shows the capabilities of the framework will serve you better. E.g. show an example of serving network requests by running services on multiple nodes, rather than a toy function with a toy database.

Showing that it's as easy as `run_in_executor()` is nice, but not if it does the exact same thing as `run_in_executor()`.
Do I understand it correctly that it generated (in the end) ten solutions that then were examined by humans and one picked? Still absolutely amazing though.

OFC we don't expect the compiler to instantiate them for us, it's not OpenMP :)
That one we covered in previous articles. OpenMP gave us about 50 GB/s with all cores enabled and 80 GB/s with part of them disabled.
+1 for Home Assistant. Have it running on RPi4 for almost two years already without single glitch. It has tons of integrations, and besides that you can always build your own Arduino modules to connect with it over MQTT if you have your special use case. Web UI is really nice, you can even access and edit config files with it without going ssh. Android/IOS app also works pretty well.
I just finished a CS class in Information Security that was so strict about plagiarism that you had to cite your source for every little bit of information you look up on google while you were programming. This wasn't just code you were copying (which was strictly forbidden unless it was pseudocode), but googling basic things like YouTube videos of concepts covered in class like public key encryption. My works cited page I submitted with my last assignment was at least 5 pages long. Meanwhile in the professional world, it's a completely different set of rules.

It looks like I may have parsed your comment in an unintended way. I read it as, roughly: 'To learn microbiology, a programmer must learn organic chemistry as a prerequisite [true for the university I attended]. However, the concepts to study organic chemistry are based on an outdated view of physics, which is why they have so many rules and exceptions.'

I believe that any good organic chemist must have strength in physical chemistry (both to excel in the field, plus it's typically a degree requirement), and physical chemists are well-informed of quantum mechanics (also typically a degree requirement, with at least an introduction to QM in most introductory chemistry courses in the unit about atomic bonding).

However, it's more plausible to believe the claim (re-interpreted) that many microbiologists don't have a strong foundation in organic chemistry or modern physics. Still, I'm skeptical that those who make it to a tenured professorship can still have these weaknesses, as I'm under the impression that the field is cross-disciplinary with collaborations with biochemists, who can then bring in their stronger background in chemistry (and thus organic chemistry, physical chemistry, and physics). Leading microbiologists (e.g. those tenured at MIT and other top institutions) who influence the field should also have familiarity with these subjects.

I tried running PiHole on a Windows box using Docker Desktop. It worked for a bit but it stopped working at some point... and I didn't bother fixing. It had been working fine for so long on my RPi.

You can buy fanless celeron mini-computers from Aliexpress for $100-$150. You can also get i5/i7 if you are willing to pay a lot more. Most of them come with pirated Windows (some sellers even say that they'll send it with Ubuntu pre-installed) but you can simply remove it and install Ubuntu Server and then install PiHole, Home Assistant or whatever you want.

Ah, my bad. My post was basically intended to call bullshit on that particular claim from the guy I responded to.
Thanks, I’ve had Idea Ultimate All Products for years and never heard of this.
Unfortunately the definition of Series A is very obscure. What is your definition of it?
My point is less about tether and more with the assets tether is inflating. I'm saying the narrative that BTC is inflated/manipulated because of tether, means that many other assets are also inflated due to accepted government fiscal policy.

> If there is a problem with a bank, there are several legal and financial consequences for everyone involved, enforced by the government.

What if that bank is the central bank? Which entity is responsible for judging the actions of that bank and deal out consequences if their actions cause more harm then good? And who would end up on the receiving end of those consequences (guessing not any individuals)? Time will tell if the doomsday folks (3 sigma bubble) are right or the mainstream folks (everything will go back to normal after a few interest rate hikes) are right but I'm pretty certain nobody will face meaningful consequences for being wrong.
I was with you until the end there. Tools for performance monitoring exist. Query Monitor is a great starting place for a free plugin. Lighthouse will tell you if you have a million blocking requests. New Relic is offered by any web host worth a damn and WP plays very nicely with it.
I'm hosting a few sites on Render and have been pretty happy with them so far.

Getting a Rails site up and running on them isn't quite as turnkey as what Heroku offers, but it still only took me a few hours to migrate one site composed of a Rails app server, Sidekiq+Redis job processor, and PG database, and that included puzzling through some lesser-explained parts of their documentation.

I really appreciate the fact that their prices scale mostly linearly, as opposed to Heroku's utterly indefensible pricing practices.

Render is still a fairly new company, which explains many of the feature gaps and lightness of their documentation, but I think they're well worth considering as a Heroku replacement. I have no regrets about making the switch.
The example problem (essentially, is T a subsequence of S with deletions of size N) is a classic problem with no doubt dozens of implementations in AlphaCode's training set.

And yet, what a garbage solution it produces.

To illustrate the difference between intelligence and regurgitation, someone tell me what CoPilot generates for this:

// A Go function to swap the sixth bit and seventeenth bit of a 32-bit signed integer.

Here is a human solution:

func swap(x int32) int32 {
const mask = 1 << 5
var (
xor1 = (x>>11 ^ x) & mask
xor2 = xor1 << 11
)
return x ^ xor1 ^ xor2
}

CoPilot cannot reason numerically like this (understand "seventeenth bit" and "sixth bit" and generate the right code for that combination). It needs to understand the size of the gap between the bits, i.e., 11, and that's too hard.
Ask HN: Good Book on Stochastic Differential Equations?
Hi HN,

Any recommendations on a book on stochastic differential equations?

Looking for something that is more applied and explains it to me like I took calculus years ago and hardly remember it but want to learn financial modeling with SDEs.

I was reading a book on the volatility surface but the math in there is too advanced for me.
These downvotes remind me about downvotes 2 years back, when I was here on HackerNews talking about leaky vaccines, vaccination-driven variants of concern, and COVID eventually turning endemic (without or without human intervention), impossible to ever remove.

There are people still on HackerNews right now, who were back then talking about overreactions, and it just being a flu, and that masks promote xenophobia and do nothing. That must weigh really heavy on their mind, or perhaps they got with (vaccination) program, and if you downvote it quickly, it does not exist to bother your own manipulated decision-making gaffe.

Yes, I am saying a horrible thing: you want to mandate a treatment for non-at-risk people, which can give them permanent damage or even cause death. But what is more concerning? Me saying a horrible thing? Or you condemning a pregnant woman to miscarriage, because the message needs to be that the vaccine is 100% safe?

Stuck between censor-happy left, and anti-science right, and both reduce my right and duty to be an informed citizen.
The science fiction novel Snow Crash mentions and features mmWave radars frequently.
There's always some kind of risk. The bridge you're on could fall down. Somewhere, someone will have to judge whether a bad outcome was a failure.
Yes, any bit of luck you have that makes your life better is a privilege, because it is something that makes your life better than someone who didn't have that luck. They didn't do anything wrong to deserve not having the luck, it was just chance.

This doesn't make the concept irrelevant. It is important to accept and understand that a lot of your success in life is due to things outside of your control. You don't have to apologize for it, but you also shouldn't think you are better than people who weren't lucky.

Understanding this is important, because if you think that your success is entirely based on choices you made, you might feel like people who aren't successful are that way entirely based on their choices, too. Realizing that luck plays a big role is the first step towards understanding that those of us who have been lucky should help those of us who haven't been as lucky, because they don't deserve to be miserable just because they had bad luck.
I'm having trouble understanding your point.

You're more scared of rich boys in lambos than of a Tesla that "disengages in many normal-to-a-human situations with no ability to resume"?
> Otherwise, we should probably credit Ableton and a bunch of synth plug-ins for pretty much every preset used on almost every dance track made now...

If there is one easily identifiable preset that is present in literally hundreds of songs, I'm not sure why it should be so offensive to recognize it as an innovation in itself. For example, the DX7 electric piano preset, the "Lately bass" on the TX81Z (which in turn was obviously inspired by the bass sound in a Janet Jackson song), or The Ultimate Soundtracker, of which derivatives have been used for literally tens of thousands of songs.

I don't see how recognizing the influence of these things is somehow disrespectful or that the recognition somehow discredits all the other innovation involved. As an extreme example, can't I say that the TB-303 revolutionized house music without discrediting artists like Phuture? To recognize that the technology was important and influential is somehow the same thing as saying that the artists and their ingenuity and innovation is not? Because I think the syrup is important, I'm ignoring or discrediting the pancakes?

The author started the topic really well, be defining a separation between Javascript/Typescript.

I find the examples that followed to be a demonstration without purpose.

After reading them I don't know when to use them, he mentions "type gymnastics" at the end and I find that most of the examples are demonstrations of type gymnastics.

I work on a large Typescript codebase and rarely I need to do abstract typing in order to get something done, Typescript can be used in a very direct and objetive manner and it's usually the route I prefer.

I don't really care about the markup output like other folks - but I do care about fragmentation. The worst period in WordPress was pre-Gutenberg when all these different page builders were competing for WordPress market share. Offering a consistent user experience is crucial for the long-term health of WordPress and that's the best thing that Gutenberg has brought to it.
Considering that almost all governments voted "yes" and only Austria voted "no" as they considered it to weak I think it is fair to say their government supported it.

https://web.archive.org/web/20171125221345/http://www.votewa...

In general you have somewhat of a point, but then it is democracy that the government would be responsible to argue for their point and convince others.

"EU did it" is a cheap excuse.

So now they've destroyed user security in an attempt to destroy user privacy? That's actually genius.
I always thought something similar would be a cool side project. Annotating plot, character overlays, subtitles with the name of the character for easier understanding, etc. Prime Video has some feature that lets you see the characters in each scene. Getting at least some annotations done by hand would probably be not too difficult - some shows and movies have some VERY dedicated fans.

I've attempted to start with something basic - some code to pare down an audio stream into basic hash identifiers a la Shazam - so that media can be identified regardless of quality etc (even encoded to 64kbps mp3, for example). Which is surprisingly difficult...
You didn't read them very closely or pay attention to quotes by Yasser Arafat and his successor or associates. What do you propose the Jews do? Allow another totalitarian theocratic ethnostate to inhabit the land and disperse among the western civilizations? Can you understand why that may be something to be wary of for them as an ethnic group? Or should they continue to be the only free, secular, democratic melting pot in the middle east? None of the things they're accused of to earn the label "apartheid" are based in fact.

In the end it should be mandated that all user data is stored locally and cannot be processed outside of its local jurisdiction.

If I'm understanding this correctly, it's possible for someone to try to share something with me, but I will not see it because I don't have them tagged? It seems the bidirectional graph means very little will end up getting shared. And if there is little content, why would it need to be behind a walled garden?

And also, how does this solve the problem of people being fake and posing on social media?
So, how long until at least one online media giant realizes that not tracking their users and good old display ads are the easy way out?

First off, recognize that peer review is a deeply flawed process, but it's generally less bad than no peer review. Peer review is primarily capable of catching methodological flaws, and of improving how the results are contextualized relative to prior art. Peer review does not imply replication of claimed results. In this case the original author falsified data, intentionally misleading the reviewers. The methods described in the papers were untruthful, which is much more challenging to catch than merely poor methods. In the end he was caught because of the non-random structure of falsified experimental noise in his data across multiple experiments. That, in combination with others' inability to replicate the results, caused the results to be retracted, and the author called out for the fraud. It may not have been feasible to recognize the fraud in any individual paper.

This appears to have been an extreme case of scientific misconduct. Many less egregious cases are never caught. And many unintentionally flawed papers are never caught as erroneous. But the overarching trend is an increase in the body of knowledge. Peer review is just one component of society's scientific research infrastructure, critical yet inadequate by itself.
I love Trio, much better than the standard asyncio.

> It's not needed, yes, but neither is Python itself. You could just write C.

I'm currently learning C, so I can use Python as a front-end for C, giving users a nice interface while using C to handle the hard work, which is what lots of Python libraries do under the hood.

If C is not your thing, there are some interesting projects to use other languages with Python [https://github.com/PyO3/PyO3] | [https://github.com/yglukhov/nimpy]

I think it's also worth pointing out that when selling short (naked or not), there's a big difference between adding liquidity and taking liquidity, and market makers are primarily (if not exclusively) in the business of adding liquidity.

If you're taking liquidity (i.e. "I want to sell right now"), you're directly applying downward price pressure to the market, by removing shares from the buy side.

If you're adding liquidity ("I'm selling, but I'm waiting for a buyer"), that's likely to have much less (if any) effect on the price.
The Ipv6 pool is quite vast. Yet I am a little surprised that an individual can receive a /48 without much trouble: that a lot of IPs.
"because Clojure jobs are scarce . . . you actually get a much higher number of applicants <and> you get a real shot at hiring rockstar devs"

I have felt this to be true for many years. I was an early Clojure adopter, deployed Clojure apps into production shortly after attending the very first Clojure/conj, and did quite a bit of hackerrank and similar competitive programming exercises with Clojure for fun and learning.

I didn't have much luck getting job offers for Clojure positions but was mostly successful in getting job offers for other tech stacks during that same time. It was kind of funny to me - I really wanted to move to a Clojure-only shop but kept getting offers for SQL and Java/C# positions despite not really being an enterprise dev type.

Taxing some or all of the middle/upper class to pay for healthcare of those who aren't paying taxes, is exactly this.

Also California's tax burden is nearly double that of the least burdensome states. Clearly there's something more at play here than merely the fear people will move out of California; California has demonstrated clearly they aren't terribly worried about the effects of higher taxation on emigration.
