It is not technically legal to use SIMD on most floating-point loops, including the inner product in matrix multiplication, because rounding errors are not commutative. C compilers don't vectorize such loops either unless you pass the -ffast-math flag. I'm sure the JIT compiler of JVM has a similar option.

(read the article I linked below, it's all explained there)

One thing I never understood is why so many forums neglected to implement sage functionality like what you have on imageboards. There would never have been bans for so-called 'necroposting'.
I use Parallels for this and seems to do fine.

Looking at the examples - quite verbose!

let virtualMachineConfiguration = VZVirtualMachineConfiguration()
virtualMachineConfiguration.platform = createMacPlaform()
virtualMachineConfiguration.bootLoader = MacOSVirtualMachineConfigurationHelper.createBootLoader()

Why not "VMConfigHelper.createBootLoader()" over "MacOSVirtualMachineConfigurationHelper.createBootLoader()" ?
I don’t recall trying to disprove the point at all

I have to be honest and say this is the one time crypto has made a lot of sense to me.
The air is 21% oxygen and hospitals were running out of oxygen in some places during the COVID pandemic. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, and yet, the supply of hydrogen is one of the biggest hurdles to the adoption of hydrogen cars.

Just because a resource exists nearby doesn't necessarily mean it can be harnessed economically or within the other constraints that the world and society imposes on us.

Silica mines are mostly (all?) surface mines, we don't explore anywhere into the crust to get it now because it isn't economical to do so. "Running out" of supply doesn't necessarily mean that the element doesn't exist, it could mean that it is inaccessible for other reasons -- like it could be the beach in front of someone's house, or a protected park.

Satisfaction is the state of being happy even when you're doing nothing.

Pleasure is the state of being happy because of something you're actively doing.

Satisfaction usually has a relatively low ceiling but a very high floor compared to pleasure. Satisfaction is also usually gained through the sacrifice of pleasure.

My experience is that smart people often try to maximize satisfaction, at the cost of all of the pleasure.

I believe you need both to live an enjoyable life. It's hard to strike a balance.

I think you're saying that Signal is not perfect, and I agree, but there's just nothing better at the moment. Email encryption is a bad reference because it has negligible usage (in comparison with modern messengers) and has proved over the years that it cannot cater to the needs of Signal's current users. But even then, I don't think we can claim that getting the email encryption setup right is any easier than ensuring one hasn't been MITMed during the initial key exchange on Signal.
Part of renewable is short term storage.

You use that peak energy to create heat, charge a battery or do similar things.

You can easily create hydrogen.

But using it for searching for a hash is the worst idea.

If you would be able to use the heat output sure that could work but let's someone do that first

Until then doing anything else with this energy is critit!

> Like someone said in one of the other comments: happiness is a choice.

That's exactly what Naval (writer of the link in this post) preaches about happiness, if you listen to pretty much any podcast appearance of his he emphasizes how much being happy is a choice. It's funny, a lot of the stories in this thread (career-driven, not happy, achieve financial freedom, now what?) mirror very closely to his life and his path to happiness.
Exactly. Remember Facebook taking out a spread in a newspaper saying Apple would kill small businesses because they couldn't advertise?

And that solution by Apple seemed to actually work in many respects.

It’s gotta be the mangoes!

Unfortunately the internet has a large selection bias. Anger, outrage, etc. are more viral than quiet contentment. Misery loves company and all that.

It’s hard to change opinions online (especially when people go online to vent or already in a bad mood), but I’m sure you’re inspiring those with your real life interactions. Keep on keeping on.
I think my big problem has always been boredom. I was bored in school, and I'm bored at work because nothing ever is particularly challenging. No days off for good behavior.

I've been coping by delving into intellectually stimulating hobbies, but that comes at the expense of other areas of my life. There are only so many hours in the day.

I think it might be your ISP. For example one of my ISPs cut off my SSH connections no matter what I do. They simply dislike hanging SSH connections.

It's just random that your ISP like WebSockets more than long HTTP responses, and it can change in a heartbeat and for most people it will be different. As I said before 99,6% successful networking is an unheard of number for real-time multiplayer games.

I only care about that number, until you proove with hard stats and 350.000 real users from everywhere on the planet that WebSocket has 99,7% success rate, I'm not even going to flinch.

The approach I take when I'm not sure of which subcommand to use is to read through the git man page and skim through the commands listed. If one looks like a candidate, I'll open up the man page for that command and see if it's what I need.
I know it isn't the main thrust of the piece, but I think the author nailed the real way that laws are used.

> The key difference is that such “flexible offenses” tend to be defined more in terms of how someone important doesn’t like an outcome, and less in terms of what specifically someone did to induce that resulting dislike.

There are so many crimes that anyone can be charged at any time. The reality of prosecution (in the USA, but moreso in the soviet union and other places) is that often prosecutors first decide who needs to be charged with a crime, and secondly what crime to charge. And there are enough laws that there is always something to charge.

This is also how the Soviet Union--which ostensibly had free speech and assembly--operated. Anyone who was problematic would find themselves guilty of obscure tax violations or other nonsense.

The book '3 felonies per day' is focused on this problem.

I happen to think this is one of the most under-stated problems of our society, and it's difficult to fix because the people charged often did do something bad--just not illegal.

As an example: the recent news of a journalist charged with hacking that gov website comes to mind.
The wasm dream died when in 2017 you couldn't modify the DOM. It was "coming soon". And then in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and presumably for it's entire future, it's still "coming soon" (actually, most people have given up on it ever happening at this point, so no one says "coming soon" except the grossly uninitiated).
The idea of baseline happiness makes sense to me. I generally live at a 7-8 out of 10 and always bounce back to that level no matter what happens. Many of my friends are around that tier. My wife is 7-6. She sometimes seems incredulous about my good mood. I can't really help it.
I hear you, I'm always thinking about how to get more control over my time. But I also think nobody can be happy without some amount of good vibes from other people, and you can never control that 100%. You just have to put yourself in positions where it can happen, and that involves giving up some control.

If you have a situation where you choose A and 1 dies, choose B and 4 die, do nothing and all 5 die, then any choice is fine, you are choosing to save people, there is no choice that would be worse for anyone than doing nothing. I’m not convinced you have an obligation to do something to save someone (a different conundrum), but there’s certainly nothing wrong with saving.

Imagine you could disarm a bomb, but only one bomb, and two were going to go off. You could try to run a maximal algorithm to decide which group to save (the 5 80 year olds or the 30 kids? The 3 kids or the 30 80 year olds, the 15 people or your child), but any choice you make is fine by me.

However if you deliberately choose to act and kill someone who wouldn’t die if you didn’t act, that’s a different situation.

Where it gets interesting is when it brings in probabilities, two identical groups, both will die in 10 minutes. You can make a choice before t-5 to save one group, but the other group will then die, however there is a chance (90%, 9%, 9 in a million) that if you do nothing someone else will be able to save both groups.

The other one, they will die after 10 minutes, you can save one group, but it will kill the other group 5 minutes earlier than they would die without your intervention. What if it’s not 5 minutes but 5 seconds. Or 5 milliseconds. How about if it’s not 10 minutes to doom, but 10 days, or 10 years, or 100 years.

10G also isn't compatible with most of the lower-CAT cabling that's already run in the walls. Most businesses aren't going to tear it all out to start over.

802.11ax can go >10gbps without needing any fixed infrastructure. 10GBASE-T is basically abandonware now, at least for consumer applications.

For servers, fiber is even more scalable (25/50/100/400G), and about as easy to handle.

Sure, but before punishment, how is it decided what causes harm and what doesn't?

My point is that this is a group activity. Ascribing the status of harm causing behaviors happens in aggregate. This is in contrast to workplace decision making which happens hierarchically. Democracy is a superior version of decision making right? Why should that idea cease to exist the moment someone steps into the workplace? Who has an interest in perpetuating the myth that workplace democracy is untenable? We run whole countries with the input of citizens, surely that could scale down to a workplace, right?

I didn't read the article, but ignorance is bliss.

There are a lot of things to be unhappy about in this world that no amount of individual intelligence can fix. Climate change, war, disease, poverty. Even if my life is pretty great, relatively speaking, the fact that our society sucks is the primary source of my unhappiness.

If I was less well informed, I wouldn't know about all the terrible things going on, and would probably be much happier. But because I know and care, that's just how it is.

That's not really a fair comparison. Most western governments have an Ombudsman where citizens can complain if they are treated unfairly. A government acting against its citizens the way Amazon does against its users would be unlikely and unlawful, whereas Amazon can get away with it because they are not breaking any laws.

Good luck! In my experience getting any real technical details out of the cable company is almost impossible, unless you have an inside connection, like a friend who works there. The "house" techs don't deal with the cable plant / stuff on the poles: they handle from the "drop" on down. The "plant" techs don't seem to talk directly to customers: that's not their job (at least not around here.)
Interesting test, I recommend people take it, but for purposes of discussion, I have put the first 4 questions here, along with my thoughts

>Question 1: Torture, as a matter of principle, is always morally wrong.

False. People have a right to be free of torture, but this right can be invalidated based on their actions

>Question 2: The morality of an action is determined by whether, compared to the other available options, it maximizes the sum total of happiness of all the people affected by it.

False. This is utilitarian thinking. I hold that there are certain rights an individual has that can not be violated unless they first have taken action to void them, see Q1.

Question 3: It is always, and everywhere, wrong to cause another person's death - assuming they wish to stay alive - if this outcome is avoidable.

False. See question 1. The word avoidable does a lot of heaving lifting here and is ambiguous. For example, how much cost and risk there is avoidance.

Question 4: If you can save the lives of innocent people without reducing the sum total of human happiness, and without putting your own life at risk, you are morally obliged to do so.

False. Again, this is utilitarianism. Sum human happiness is not the only or driving moral imperative.

This set of values produces a 100% compatibility with the following trolly questions. What was the experience of others? I'm guessing 100% utilitarian would do the same

There are troublemakers in school that are suffering from learning issues. But there are also "rebels" that are intelligent - yet it's usually not a good outcome for them.

Stanislaw Lem handles these kind of themes in his books. A person, living his life, suddenly gets a revelation and sees the reality for what it is - all that he believed was really a sham.

Sure, maybe some people wish they never had this disillusionment. But if it's happened, what do you do then? How do you work, outside or within, the "sham" system?
That doesn’t stop it from being manipulation - it’s just calling out how most people are hypocrites?
This style of naming is common on everything Apple, all their APIs and SDKs and most things in Objective-C/Swift are verbose like this, it’s on purpose.

I wouldn't say it's a short term state. At least personally, I can pause at any point in the day and think "am I happy", to which the answer is usually yes.
Of course there are peaks and valleys, which as you described, are usually short bursts of emotion — like when you listen to your favorite song or see your best friend. But I think happiness also exists at a more baseline level when you are just... content in being.
Your answer is in your penultimate sentence ("The hard part is purifying it.") and at the end of the article.

Being smart isn't enough to be happy. You also need a sense of freedom and purpose.

If you're out of touch with yourself and aren't free, you will not find a genuine purpose in your life; your whole life will be about channeling the will of those who have power over you.

It's called superscalar processing. CPUs can execute more than one instruction concurrently on each pipeline stage if there is no dependency between them. In the prefix sum, we can fetch and add the next element simultaneously with the accumulator of the previous iteration is being written back.

Depends on the city, you and your circle's life goals, and so on. As a recent parent I can say that I only maintain a few close friends whom I see sparingly. Between a full-time job, raising a child, and keeping a marriage healthy there isn't much time for much else.

If your social circle isn't interested in children then this isn't going to be much of a difference.

Generally I feel not that much "radical" stuff is happening, mostly iterations on existing concepts which imo is still very exciting.

Some things I have been excited about lately (not per se from last year, but definitely relevant):

- Stitches: CSS in JS solution that is great for design systems

- Radix UI: "Unstyled, accessible components for building high‑quality design systems and web apps in React."

- ESbuild; also SWC, generally newer really fast bundlers. I've been playing around with esbuild and I really like how easy and fast it is.

- pnpm: a npm/yarn alternative.

- Framer motion, Framer motion 3d, react three fiber, motion
one: Lots of cool stuff happening in the animation & 3d space.

- Supabase: Similar to firebase, and aws amplify.

- React query, and swr; declarative data fetching

- Playwright: E2e testing/browser automation tool, I guess sort of cypress-ish, but really easy to set up and use.

- Typescript: not new of course, but it has pretty much become standard, means everything has bindings, lots of info out there, easy to use.

- ReScript: A more functional compile-to-js language, a bit niche and small, but really cool imo.

- Cool new CSS stuff (aspect ratio for example), also some new cool JS API's happening (I'm watching CSS houdini, although support is not there yet).

I could go on, there is lots of awesome stuff out there. Like I said I don't think as big of leaps as some years back, I think it's more better/faster/easier ways to get stuff done. It's a good time to FE dev!
