Oversupply means a few of the suppliers will not be able to sell their chips and might face bankruptcy, leading to monopolies in a decade or so when the pendulum swings back again. Don't worry too much about it though, it's difficult to predict the future and it's equally possible that the market will return to relative balance without overcorrection.
Yes, for this exact reason I didn't use the word "rights"
This was my position until very recently as well but I’ve recently been convinced otherwise.

The trust stuff is actually the least interesting part (though perhaps a prerequisite for it).

The interesting part is the potential for a “universal” api. Instead of having to integrate with every financial institution to support the myriad payment methods out there you can support the crypto currency. That’s a big deal.

It’s not what the crypto libertarians are pitching and I still believe that governmental currency controls will always be a thing but standardizing the actual mechanics of money movement would be huge.
Shortcuts being CTRL-dependent on Windows is _the_ main reason I do not use it on any of my machines.

MacOS' ⌘-dependent (CMD?) shortcuts are much more ergonomic. I use my thumb to trigger shortcuts, vs on Windows having to use my pinky's knuckle.

On Linux you can emulate this same behavior by switching ctrl/alt/win keys (gnome-tweaks has this option). One thing I am unable to emulate, however, is ALT+left/right arrow for home/end.
I'm currently watching a major military conflict unfold in near real-time via Reddit, so I'm going to go with either no, or yes but the definition of pacifier is really weird.

Glibness aside, I think sure, for some people all of the time, and for all people some of the time, a phone is just a pacifier. But it's also our window into basically the entire wealth of human knowledge, indexed better than it has ever been in all of history. So I really think that's something worth not selling so short.
Yeah, not GPUs, maybe cars, surely fridges.

We at Khan Academy are planning a blog post soon about how we've been approaching dependency injection in Go. I touched upon this in my GopherCon talk last year[1]. I like the system because it's pretty straightforward and builds upon Go's context with a bit of reflection:

[1]: https://youtu.be/MysHL0XYJeA?t=680

var ktx interface {
kacontext.Base
log.KAContext
datastore.KAContext
gqlclient.KAContext
web.AuthedServiceContext
web.AuthedUserContext
} = kacontext.Upgrade(ctx)

With this approach, you ask for the just the interfaces you need from the context and you have statically typed access to those resources.

I expect the blog post will be live within a couple of weeks (but haven't seen a draft yet, so no guarantees): https://blog.khanacademy.org/engineering
They're all good metrics, depending on what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what calculating number of papers downloaded vs. quantity of institutional artifacts of education in a particular country would get you, other than a guess that it's inversely related to the ease of access to papers by a country's institutions i.e. an inverse to subscription numbers.

Per capita is a bit messy, because it's tied up with internet access and wealth/educational inequality, but it also might be useful for that.
I think I can't find a good name for my new project. For this one, I have spent more than a week in a search of a name and came up with Eredom. And, still, I am not sure if it was a good name. During that week, I hardly did any programming or other meaningful work.

So, one of the ideas behind this site is to help others find a name for a startup/project by showing them what is available. I have focused on short .com names. For now, 5 letter .com domains are shown. In the future, I plan on adding available 4 characters (names that contain letters and numbers) and available 6 letter .com domains.

The idea is to get in, scroll through available names, and pick one. And then focus on building your product.

I really hope this will help you speed things up.
Dr. Seuss authored political cartoons during WW2 so this is perhaps less out of character than one might think at first glance.

Dr. Seuss is a pen name. His real last name is Geisel. My recollection is he needed a pen name either to break some rule or because he had broken some rule in college.

He lived in San Diego County for at least part of his life. It is an area with an unusual biome. Some of trees have pink bark and/or other unusual features. If you've spent time there, his drawings look less whimsical and creative and more like he just drew the world around him and his world didn't look the world I grew up in in Columbus, Georgia.

The Geisel Library at the university there is named after him. On the grounds is statuary showing The Cat in the Hat as part of a tribute him.

He wrote for children but never had children of his own. He had an affair while his first wife was battling cancer. His first wife ultimately killed herself and he married the other woman.

It's perhaps a little late for the world to be reading children's books and wondering how to stop the current mess, though the works of Dr. Seuss are typically a good read and he lived an interesting life from what I gather.

“If until 2014 the Armed Forces of Ukraine were a fragment of the Soviet army, over the past seven years a qualitatively different army has been created in Ukraine, on a completely different ideological basis and largely on NATO standards. And very modern weapons and equipment are being supplied and continue to be supplied to Ukraine from many countries of the North Atlantic Alliance.”

Telegram has nothing to do with Russia other than their founder being from there. Ukrainians and other Europeans are organizing their fighting via Telegram, I'm sharing the channel used by the Ukrainians themselves.
What is unique, is that there is a clear aggressor and it's a US enemy. When the aggressor is backed by the US it's a boring story that wouldn't get good ratings.

CNN has strong biases too and puts out narrative building news, ignoring any news which strays from narration. Same with WaPo but even worse. Irony !!
Overpopulation can be solved while increasing the human population, by eliminating people's environmental footprint. This is a much better way of solving the issue of overpopulation than consciously avoiding solving the problem of aging.

A larger population, that sees an acceleration in the rate of per capita human capital accumulation, as a consequence of aging being solved, could also be a huge boon for other lifeforms, as it could mean artificial habitats being created outside of Earth where these lifeforms could flourish. It is entirely possible for human civilization to one day create continent sized O'Neill cylinder covered with forests originating from Earth.
If I didn't care about the open source license I'd simply use github. (Which, unfortunately, may be the only solution that doesn't continue eating more and more of my time.)

Anyhow, this sounds like a death knell for gitlab-ce. My GSoC use case isn't fringe (there are 100s of GSoC orgs), and Gitlab wouldn't have spent money on the ML approach for EE if it weren't generally important.
They may be considered Slavs but the reality is many of them are more Mongolian and very different from Slavs. Even their language shows signs of Mongolian influence. The Mongolians could not pronounce certain sounds properly and the Russian language exhibits these pronunciations.
This seems to be interesting timing, with the current geopolitical situation, that Nature are now even acknowledging this kind of claim.
No, it's not, the parent poster overestimates the effect. Something like 0.1% of the surface would need panels. Energy trapped by those solar panels pales compared to what's trapped by all the greenhouse gasses we've emitted burning coal and oil.
I use guix as a package manager in a Debian based distro and it works fine with systemd.
I think the IKEA hate is amplified by the experience of being in their stores. I like IKEA products and do go and shop there, but I plan ahead to get in and out in less than half an hour, because after twenty minutes or so I start to get nauseous and feel like I'm having trouble breathing.

It's not because I have strong feelings about the products or the company, or just that I dislike shopping. There aren't any other stores that create the same reaction. Stores filled with products I hate, stores filled with products I love, stores filled with temptations, big stores, little stores, ugly stores, beautiful stores, malls, they're just places to shop, and while they might make me feel bored or irritated after a while, I don't get nauseous. They don't fill me with dread.

I honestly don't know why IKEA stores affect me like that. At first I thought it was anxiety about being disoriented, but it happens to me even in the local store where I know the layout. I have a lot of faith in habituation, mindfulness, and thinking things through as ways of mitigating anxiety, but they haven't helped. The only thing that affects me as viscerally and predictably is my fear of heights, so whatever it is, it feels primal.

The sequel “Dark Sun” is also quite good. Continues the story into the making of the hyrogen bomb, the Teller-Ulam design, and the USSR’s efforts. Much shorter too :)
Of course, Dr. Seuss should have been more sensitive back then and shown more real Japanese, not atrocious caricatures.

For example this one:

There are not going to be any bankruptcies even in a severe oversupply situation. Chip manufacturers are much higher margin and better capitalized than in the past, and a lot of the riskier capacity expansion this time around has been financed by customers
Putin puts Russia’s nuclear deterrence forces on high alert
Sadly no links to the statements and predictions he is criticizing. I’d like to read some of those (for entertainment).
That's a start. But Germany is in arrears for many years of not meeting their NATO obligations.
My experience of GNU Guix is using it as a package manager on a 'foreign' distro like Debian. For standalone apps it works pretty faultlessly, allowing me to easily install new version of packages like blender, krita and inkscape and have all of the advantages of guix at my service.

My experience of trying to install things like Python via Guix were frustrating: I often seemed to struggle to import modules, and in the end I went back to conventional installation methods.

Overconfidence seems to be a common attribute of countries that spread propaganda for generations, I feel the US falls into similar patterns. There are experts that manage to see through this, but it seems no one wants to listen to them.
Good overview of the state of nuclear power in the Ukraine https://www.democracynow.org/2022/2/25/russia_seizes_1986_ch...

tl;dr 50% of their electricity comes from nuclear, so they can't just shut them down. Most nuclear power plants are not walk away safe, so they need grid power and staff.
I was always thinking that if Putin listens to anyone at all, then that would be his “friends” from Russian elite, such as Deripaska or Fridman

But I might be terribly wrong, of course, and you are right. Mr. Madman might be out is his mind for a very long time, and he does not listen to anyone.

It depends if those feelings of happiness are immediate or eventual. A child does need to eventually give up the comfort of nipple or womb. I am sceptical if people report immediate feelings of happiness, though. That sounds more like novelty and wanting it to be true.
I’ve been watching Kenji’s YouTube channel for quite a while and it’s one of my favorite channels. One of his favorite chefs is Jacque Pepin (and mine!) and it shows. He’s not pretentious, mellow, substitutes ingredients the recipe calls for with ingredients he actually has in his house, and geeks out on history and science. Lastly his dogs are pretty darn cute and get to taste some great dishes.
Engineering alone can’t fix what’s wrong with the internet
I don’t know if there will be an “oversupply” of GPUs, because now they are all manufactured at foundries and the chip companies can just cut their orders. But with Intel coming into the market, Samsung switching to TSMC, and TSMC putting in $120b of capex, the shortage should be alleviated pretty soon.
Saw the uber/fx this morning and decided to give another go at sharing this small project. The thing is, dependency injection doesn't need to be all that complicated. I think, if nothing else, it makes testing easier and helps you be sure you can run all your tests in parallel.

I'm not here to defend DI if you don't like it, but otherwise happy to answer questions about it.

Check out the test file for some kind of example on how to use it.

I’ll second “Making of the Atomic Bomb” as an excellent history of modern physics tied to a great narrative.

For Biology I really enjoyed “A Brief History of Creation”, high level overview of all of the advances to understand what we are made of.

“Eight Day of Creation” is supposed to be incredible but it’s the size of the text book so I keep reaching past it on my desk
wtf? the title suggests there's going to be some sort of justification, but based on a quick skim it's just a montage of various nuclear related imagery?

I think GP is merely referring to the idea not that Crypto Currencies AGMI, but that the Fed/Gov are allowing it all the happen so the research/investment is made to get the technology to the point that a PoST/PoS/(Solana|Cardano|Etherum|etc.) system exists as a reference point to create "FedCoin" featuring centralized control by the fed, but decentralized and trustless processing beyond that.

A system that is powered by crypto making payments and etc basically free, but with the ability to reverse fraud transactions or similar. They have their own goals/constraints that are different than crypto currencies today. Another comment refers to a universal API; even if the API is JUST for settlement between banks it would probably make things way simpler, cheaper, and more efficient.

edit: typo, added universal api comment agreeing with comments from kasey_junk
What I wanna see is a guix equivalent of NixOps. That would be an interesting and viable alternative to Terraform
We need something objective to go on. Someone else disagreeing with your view is not evidence that they're a bot. The vast majority, in my experience, are simply people with different backgrounds disagreeing with each other for what must in the end be similar reasons.

Users are much too quick to assume that someone they don't like on the internet is a bot, spy, shill, astroturfer, foreign agent, you name it. This is pretty much the most common thing people throw at each other in online arguments. That's why we don't allow it here—see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. If you or anyone thinks they have evidence of abuse, they should send it to hn@ycombinator.com so we can look into it. Plenty of past explanation is at https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme.... For example, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27398725 is one in-depth post on the topic.

Btw, pointing a finger at others isn't a great way to respond when asked to stop breaking the site guidelines. I know emotions are running high, but that applies to everyone, and unless I'm mistaken you have a history of breaking the site guidelines here and being banned for it, and that tends to lead to getting banned again unless you take conscious steps to fix it.

And in case it helps at all, none of that means that I don't feel for your situation.
I don't know the specifics, but my assumption is that this has something to do with the taxing the cannabis industry.

The SAFE Banking act still hasn't passed. As far as I know, the cannabis industry is cash only.

If anyone has any further reading about this, I'm interested.

EDIT: Less wordy, easier to read.
Yes, the AST problem is one I've had a lot! It's hard.

(The whole Oil language is defined as a big ML-style statically typed data structure, but it's not exposed:
https://www.oilshell.org/release/0.9.8/source-code.wwz/front...)

What I'd say is that we already have a narrow waist for every language -- text. That is the one that's stable! Having an additional stable AST format seems to be an insurmountable problem, especially in most statically typed languages.

The basic reason is that it's easier to evolve text in a backward compatible way than types. This is probably obvious to some people, but controversial to others... It has a lot to do with the "ignoring new data" problem discussed in the blog post. It would be nice to unpack this a bit and find some references.

----

Related: I recently circulated this language implementation, which has a front end in OCaml, a backend in C++, and the IR is transmitted via protobuf.

https://old.reddit.com/r/ProgrammingLanguages/comments/ss3w6...

Protobuf has the "runtime field presence" feature, which would be useful for making a backward compatible AST/ IR. That isn't done here, but it would be something to explore.

-----

Also, thinking about the blog post a bit more, I'd say a huge number of decisions hinge on whether you can recompile the entire program or not.

If you can, you should. But if you can't, a lot of programmers seem to have a hard time with runtime composition. Sometimes they even deny that it exists or should exist!

In contrast, whereas admins/operators/SREs deal with runtime composition almost exclusively. Programmers are more familiar with a static view and build time composition. If I wanted to be ambitious, what I am getting at with this series is a theory of and guidelines for runtime composition, and versionless evolution.

e.g. even in Windows, you never recompile your COM components together, even though they are written in statically typed languages. Global builds and atomic upgrades don't scale, even on a single computer.
NATO calls Russia nuclear threat ‘dangerous’ and ‘irresponsible‘
I’m guessing there will be an oversupply of fab capacity, not just specific chips.
Sorry I just noticed your question when I'm browsing through my comments.

I haven't used note-taking apps extensively, I use Google Docs to write things done (not exactly 'note-taking') most of the time. What I've noticed is that I frequently need to link to other docs when I'm only mentioning a high-level overview in my current doc. Some examples: * When I'm writing a design doc, I need to reference docs that record the severity and symptoms of the problems that I'm solving with my design, docs in the past that tried solving the same problems, etc. * When I'm writing an overview for other readers or just for personal organization, it goes without saying that I'll make references to existing docs.

Digest/Reminder: I think it'll be a killer feature of any card/snippet-based note-taking app! Too often, brief notes are jot down and left to rot. Some notes are intended for that - I wrote it down just to get it out of my immediate working memory, not that I intend to do it in the near future. But for some notes, I do actually want to be reminded to organize (i.e., create a personal and internal structure over) them, esp. for reading notes. WeChat isn't frequently used outside of Asia(?), but a thoughtful and automated digest sent through email or phone notification could achieve something similar.

This doesn't sound good. I hope they aren't going to start including Google / general advertising in Thunderbird. I hope it doesn't turn into an about:config nightmare of disabling all this stuff.
I couldn't care less what Russia says it's doing. I care about not mistreating prisoners, POWs or not.

Figuring out legalities is something that happens over years after the fact.

During the actual war, you'll have to keep your arguments short, preferably steering towards moral right - few have time for legalities.

The Geneva Convention is an easily understood bare minimum, and regardless of whether some country agreed to be bound by it, few would disagree with the lines it draws.
