Anything by Cordwainer Smith[0]. He more or less invented psychological warfare, so his science fiction is quite interesting. It revolves around the "Instrumentality of Mankind"[1]. He created a completely consistent universe, and it is probably some of the best science fiction to ever be written.

It doesn't really claim to be the longest.

There are pros and cons to such long buildings. Hong Kong actually started regulating breaks in buildings, because tall walls of buildings + mountains + irregular street grid meant that there was insufficient ventilation for roadside pollution to dissipate.

I somewhat like the map precisely because of this fact.Waters and oceans are not at the end of the day solid, however vast they might be(however this is not to say this map is fully about elevation, because underwater elevation is mostly missing if not existent).Though it might look unnecessarily apocalyptic, it's somewhat a good reference of how the tectonic plates, the planet, and everything else in nature evolves.I'm personally fascinated for example by the both 'negative' (rivers) and 'positive' (hills, pre-mountain areas) that form tree-like structures.If we used traditional elevation map such quirks would be less noticeable, at least in my opinion
Thanks for that, didn't know it had a name.
Not sure about that. $15 per bottle gives a winemaker enough rope to hang themselves manipulating the flavor in an attempt to appeal to some idea of mainstream tastes and ending up with the wine equivalent of botched plastic surgery. I'd probably rather drink a slightly spoiled, vinegar-tinged $7 bottle made from poor quality grapes than some of these sweetened, flavored, excessively oaked atrocities which lately have come to make me regard the whole grocery store wine aisle as a minefield best avoided.
Unless you're being facetious, you might want to read up on things like the Delta Works[1], the Zuidersee Works[2] or the smaller project of Maeslantkering[3].

If there's one country that has had long experience in dealing with the threat from the oceans, it's the Netherlands. And these kinds of projects don't really lend themselves to organizations that require profit for their investments.

Show HN: ICON-3D Avatar Creator from 2D Pixels
Realistic virtual humans will play a central role in mixed and augmented reality, forming a critical foundation for the Metaverse and supporting remote presence, collaboration, education, and entertainment.
To enable this, new tools are needed to easily create large-scale 3D virtual humans that can be readily animated. However, current methods need either posed 3D scans captured by expensive scanning equipment or 2D images with carefully controlled user poses. Both of them can't scale up easily.

ICON ("Implicit Clothed humans Obtained from Normals") takes a step towards robust 3D clothed human reconstruction from in-the-wild images. This also enables creating animatable avatars directly from video with personalized and natural pose-dependent cloth deformation.

Isn’t there also a blatant mistake in the content of the post?

The naive approach for approximating e keeps track of two floats. No arrays. So minimal, aka negligible memory footprint.

Then they introduce iterators, promoting that yielding values is more efficient. Yet suddenly, using islice, they are actually producing and having to store a list of values. So now they do have to worry about memory, as opposed to before. Yet, the article claims/implies the opposite.
That explains why NYC is full of kids multigenerational families and suburban and rural America isn’t, right?
Those 250 packages likely don't have custom forks of the GPL license. Handling of legal requirements for each package should be templatable by management based on whether a particular package is GPLv2, GPLv3 or AGPLv3 and has a linking exception.
C and Rust have the same memory model though, unless you're using a definition of "memory model" that I'm unaware of.
I don't think there is actually a good-enough alternative...

> Sleep plays a vital role in brain function and systemic physiology across many body systems. Problems with sleep are widely prevalent and include deficits in quantity and quality of sleep; sleep problems that impact the continuity of sleep are collectively referred to as sleep disruptions. Numerous factors contribute to sleep disruption, ranging from lifestyle and environmental factors to sleep disorders and other medical conditions. Sleep disruptions have substantial adverse short- and long-term health consequences. A literature search was conducted to provide a nonsystematic review of these health consequences (this review was designed to be nonsystematic to better focus on the topics of interest due to the myriad parameters affected by sleep). Sleep disruption is associated with increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, metabolic effects, changes in circadian rhythms, and proinflammatory responses. In otherwise healthy adults, short-term consequences of sleep disruption include increased stress responsivity, somatic pain, reduced quality of life, emotional distress and mood disorders, and cognitive, memory, and performance deficits. For adolescents, psychosocial health, school performance, and risk-taking behaviors are impacted by sleep disruption. Behavioral problems and cognitive functioning are associated with sleep disruption in children. Long-term consequences of sleep disruption in otherwise healthy individuals include hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, weight-related issues, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and colorectal cancer. All-cause mortality is also increased in men with sleep disturbances. For those with underlying medical conditions, sleep disruption may diminish the health-related quality of life of children and adolescents and may worsen the severity of common gastrointestinal disorders. As a result of the potential consequences of sleep disruption, health care professionals should be cognizant of how managing underlying medical conditions may help to optimize sleep continuity and consider prescribing interventions that minimize sleep disruption.
> I've seen plenty of really scalable systems being built by a small core team of people who know what they are doing.

There is huge difference between building a system that could theoretically be scaled up and actually scaling it up efficiently.

At small scales, it's really easy to build on the work of others and take things for granted without even knowing where the scaling limits are. For example, if I suddenly find I need to double my data storage capacity, I can drive to a store and come back with a trunk full of hard drives the same day. I can only do that because someone already build the hard drives, and someone stocked the nearby stores with them. If a hyperscaler needs to double their capacity, they need to plan it well in advance, allocating a substantial fraction of global hard drive manufacturing capacity. They can't just assume someone would have already built the hardware, much less have it in stock near where it's needed.
I have updated the documentation/README to provide background and rationale, and elaborated a bit on other comments.

OpenBSD's vi (and OpenVi) differ distinctly from both Nvi (https://repo.or.cz/nvi.git) and Nvi2 (https://github.com/lichray/nvi2) in terms of features and support, having diverged 25 years previously, where the OpenBSD/OpenVi branch has embraced minimalism and simplicity.

For a quick and non-scientific comparison, C source lines of code (as counted by tokei) for the various distributions of the Nvi-derived editors:

Nvi - 62,315 SLOC

Nvi2 - 32,408 SLOC

OpenVi - 40,065 SLOC

And looking ONLY at the core editor functionality and bundled regular expression engines:

Nvi - 35,874 SLOC

Nvi2 - 32,019 SLOC

OpenVi - 31,678 SLOC

I don't know about other people, but my tokenizer is parameterized over string slice types. So I tokenize from a slice (be it &str or ropey's RopeSlice) and some of the returned tokens have subslices. This allows tokenization to do no heap allocation.

Interesting ideas! I especially like the automatic rebasing and associated ideas.

It's a bit strange to see "jj st" will automatically add all files to the "working copy" commit. This means that when I initially create my project, run "npm install" to install 500 MB of dependencies, and then run "jj st" to figure out what to include in my first commit, the command is going to copy all of that into a commit object for no reason. I don't think I like that behavior, to be honest. Is this a requirement of any of the other unique features? Could this be turned off, or modified to be an explicit operation?

[append]

To be clear, the fact that it's `jj st` is actually a big part of the problem for me: this is the command I use to figure out what to put into my `.gitignore` in the first place! I don't think that any of the "read-only" commands should be making these kind of changes.

In the absence of a reporting mechanism for issues like this, I'd suggest at least a notice / message alongside results to indicate that they may not reflect the current state of official and amended records.

I loved that part and I am a Canadian. After the recent actions of my government I am certainly not going to vote for anyone who supports such actions. Furthermore I am now looking at ways in which I can buy crypto as it has become apparent money isn’t exactly safe in an account so am considering what to buy as a backup plan in case our dollar does become devalued. I can only imagine these actions strengthen the value of things like bitcoin. Still hard to exchange into fiat but I’m sure there are ways around that too.

A non zero click remote code execution would be for example the attacker sends the victim a message, with a link or attachment, that if the victim interacts with it, the attacked gets to run code they wrote in the victims device.

A zero click remote code execution, would be for example where the attacker send a message, and their phone just processing the message on it's own is enough for the attacker to execute code on the victims device.

A non zero click vulnerability can be mitigated by being cautious. A zero click vulnerability cannot.
This cracked me up. Thanks fxtentacle :D.
> Cryptocurrency trading is not the same as a regular market.

Could you substantiate what you see here with a concrete difference? Particularly in terms of my argument that an asset price can move without actual trades being made. If positive news comes out about bitcoin, the price can immediately move without any trading, or at least without every bitcoin needing to realize a gain through trading. This would be an example of growth in value that is not zero sum. Stocks can do the same thing as well. This is actually very visible when a stock opens with a gap from prior closing price.

> And cryptocurrencies are actually negative sum, due to miners and fees.

I'm not sure how you reached that conclusion. Fees and miner inflation are a drag on the asset class, I agree. But stocks also have fees to trade and issue, and are subject to dilution through new issuing. The issue is whether the drag is larger or smaller than growth of the asset.
If we raised separate tax on land (that isn't a primary residence) and luxury property (aircraft, yachts, - anything exceeding 500k)...

Say you have a home you live in that's 300k. You also have a guest house you airbnb and make 50k/year on. There's considered 0 'value' in a primary residence, however you're making 50k/year value off your additional rent. So you'd pay tax on that, above and beyond any other tax.

If you have commercial or other real estate rentals you'd pay as well. The key is that you'd need to somehow peg the tax rate with inflation, and housing prices, etc...to basically make it a self-organized check-system to keep rents from rising, because rising rents means higher taxes.

Perhaps you actually tie the LVT to census data on homeless in a region, less homeless = less taxes, therefore creating solutions to that problem actually is a win:win...

First of all, there is ghettos INSIDE Paris too:18th, 19th, 20th districts....

Transit lines are not used to confine them to the suburbs, they're the only thing allowing them to actually have any opportunities.

As a poor student I lived in a rich Parisian neighborhood and I also lived in a very poor suburb. I definitely preferred living in comfortable housing with a 40min commute than in a closet with a 10min commute.

There is some places where there is actually no opportunities because of the LACK of public transportation, like in some neighbors in the north of Marseille where there is 80% unemployment.

Those are just headlines, is there any evidence that those are actually overtaking C, and that the C++ used isn't just "C style C++"?
Yeah for sure, but the underlying chains are pretty solid, and some of the languages are particularly well formalized such as Plutus (which is led by SPJ’s son with a few of the original Haskell language team).

But you can’t save people from bugs higher up the stack when it comes to turing complete contracts. It can definitely be better though.

But parole evidence is trickier to apply here than you might imagine. It only applies where there is an ambiguity in the text, and probably matters much less where 3rd parties are to be bound by a license, instead of two parties to a contract.

Humans GET simplicity from extreme hyper complexity.

Take a gas generator. Easy, add oil and gas and get electricity and these days they even come in a smoothed over plastic shell that makes it look like a toy. Inside, very complex, spark plugs, engine, coils, inverter. A hundred years of inventions packed into a 1.5' x 1.5' box.

It's the same thing for complicated systems. Front end to back. No matter how ugly or how much you wish it was refactored - some exec knows it as a box where you put something in and magical inference comes out. Maybe that box actually causes real change in the physical world - like billions of packages being sent out all over the world.

In the days of castles you would have similar systems managed by people. People that drag wooden carts of shit out of a castle. Carrying water around. Manually husking corn and wheat and what have you.

No matter how far into the future we go, we will continue to get simple out of monstrous complexity.

That's not the answer to your question - but it's just that the world will always lean towards going that way.
Much more importantly, without UNIX and free beer TCP/IP there's a fair chance the Internet isn't the Network and none of this (gestures at HN and the Web) happens. That's a much bigger impact than C which is just a programming language, even if you count the influence of NUL-terminated strings, and all the semi-colon languages (including even Javascript and Rust, which are very different from C but preserve the enthusiasm for semi-colons) the Internet as Network makes more difference.

In particular it's possible X.25 could have won. JANET (the tertiary education network in the United Kingdom) was exclusively doing X.25 until 1991, when it tries an experiment offering IP. Unsurprisingly free beer TCP/IP offers a cornucopia of interesting new toys and sites are very enthusiastic about JIPS (the experimental IP service) so that by 1992 the IP service is no longer an experiment but the primary service, with X.25 maintained only until 1997.

You do get the Network anyway of course, that's what everything is leading up to after Shannon, but you probably get an X.25 flavoured Network instead of the Internet, or some other system coming from another direction, and broad deployment might have been delayed into the early 21st century rather than the 1990s depending on exactly how things work out. Stallman's GNU project doesn't happen, Tim's toy hypermedia system either doesn't exist or is a small inconsequential experiment largely unknown outside hypermedia fanatics, and Linus Torvalds probably doesn't make an operating system kernel for his 386 microcomputer. It's a very different environment, C is small potatoes by comparison.
With all due respect - how do you write a string library in C then? Char* is not one.

> and i really don't care for religion anymore...just quality and real freedom.

The freedom that GPL is about isn't about the developer's freedom to do whatever they please but about the user's freedom from the developers' whims. This isn't some arbitrary nebulous religion-like dogma but comes from the very practical issue of developers inherently having power over the programs they write and, by extension, power over the users who rely on those programs.

Remember that the entire free software thing didn't start because the Emacs god visited Stallman in his sleep but because he was denied access to the source code that would help him fix his lab's printer.

That's a lot of basement.
Even if they go with dualstack, they do DS-Lite instead (public IPv6, CGNAT-ed IPv4). For customers that have already public IPv4, that's negative incentive to even consider switching to it, thus the IPv6 ranks are not growing, even if they could.
That's the equivalent of "yes-huh". Your truth is not reality.

The worst is during the night: You are sleeping, in a partial-dream, know you have hypoglycemia --somehow you know-- but you don't know for sure but it feels like something you experienced before, you do not completely wake up, dream somewhat lucid and are aware but you cannot decide to wake up and get something to eat but keep on dreaming and it's not a happy dream and keeps on going.

I have searched for this some time ago but all 'hints' guided me towards vim(1) :set nowrap option.

I checked now the vi(1) [nvi] man page on FreeBSD and it indeed has leftright option.

vi only. Do left-right scrolling.

But I never interpreted that as 'nowrap' equivalent.

The fact that this is free is mind boggling. Maybe four or five years ago I had access to a commercial court search API which had 850mn cases nationwide, and it cost a pretty penny.
I did, I watched very closely (and took estimated times) for a couple weeks and they were obsessed a couple years back. All they wanted to do was be on the phone or switch. If you close some doors then other doors will open up. Board games, actually sitting down and telling their day to me (and their mom), playing with the cats and dog. Etc. I give them a lot of freedom until around 8, everyone needs personal time that they own, including kids, then it's back to business of being a family and homework.
No... a chain that costs $1M to attack with a mktcap of $100K is more secure than a chain that costs $10M to attack with a mktcap of $100B, as the latter has huge financial incentives for doublespending (after depositing say $100M at an exchange), while the former has none.

It's like how much you spend on a bike lock. A $100 lock on a $20 bike is probably quote secure, while a $200 lock on a $5000 bike is probably quite insecure.
It's just because you've been using Git for too long. Mercurial is much easier to use if you're not exposed to Git.
Well, forcing people to use SSL was easy to sell as an advantage to end users. IPv6 is irrelevant for end users, so it's a much harder sell.

Plus, if the big guys don't adopt IPv6 first, than Google would only be hurting their search quality if they demote projects using IPv4 only.
