on the contrary, arm is a simpler isa to implement which means radically less circuitry for reading the instruction. modern Intel cpus go so far as having entire systems that translate external x86 instructions to an internal risc based one. That's a huge source of wasted power ie: heat.

Well,

I agree with your basic point.

I'd just offer that Siegels paradox (which is interesting to read about)[1] applies if you have two currencies where some consumers price their end-consumption good in each of those currencies. But crypto currencies aren't something you want to consume later. If bitcoin has a 50% chance of doubling and 50% chance of halving in value, it is simply a good investment (expected payoff = 5/4 of investment) best held by dollar current dollar holders and bitcoin holders alike.

So, yeah, wealth is what matters and the Siegel's argument is a red herring. But erudite one, ha.

I can't remember the exact criteria that Taleb mentioned that led me to believe that great things might come of RISC-V.

So I'll fall back on the "optionality" argument. Vendors, particularly small vendors, can experiment with RISC-V either free, or very cheaply more so than they can with ARM. Right there, RISC-V opens up a segment that didn't exist before. They'll be more experimentation. When your downsides are limited, but your upside is potentially huge, that's what I mean by "optionality". This is a powerful driver of success.

Naturally, any individual endeavour can fail, but collectively, there's going to be some huge winners.

My prediction is that RISC-V will open up some new category of computing. I can't tell you what it is, who will do it, or when they'll do it, because I don't know. My point is not so much that I can predict what it will be, but merely that there are forces in favour of RISC-V.

I am not, however, predicting the imminent demise of ARM.

I think also that a lot of commentators are viewing things through the lens of what we understand and the received wisdom today. Even - or maybe especially - experts tend to be hemmed in by what is "obvious".

RISC-V is like a genie that's been let out of the bottle. You can't put it back in.

In NZ, most fire brigades outside of urban areas and bushfire response are volunteer based. Which requires a lot of understanding employers - it wasn't uncommon in my rural town during our high fire risk season for our teacher to sprint out the classroom when his pager went off, then the principal would cover for him.
I found a bug. If you visit a page with a REPL, the REPL will always use the dark mode style on a subsequent visit regardless of the saved theme value in localStorage. To see this in action visit this page[0], toggle the theme to light (or dark and back again), and then do a refresh. When you toggle the theme to light, the REPL will update accordingly, but this doesn't persist after the refresh. Anyone know who I should tell about this?

Correction: it only stays dark for me because my initial visit used dark mode. If your initial visit uses light mode, it will stay light even if you later choose dark mode.

> Personally, I've found that disabling auto-updates just means either unnecessarily sticking with outdated/buggy versions (or versions that drift out of sync with backend services and acquire new bugs that way),

I guess I don't care if my apps are "outdated" as long as they still do what I want. If there's something buggy about an app that annoys me enough I'll often just uninstall the buggy app and find an alternative.

I find that once I install an Fdroid app and I like it, it'll pretty much just keep working just the way I want it to. The only app I use that breaks if I don't update it is NewPipe and that's google's fault. It doesn't happen often enough, or take long enough to update to offset the benefits of using it.

Even most my regular google play store apps don't actually "need" to be updated, and many haven't been since the day they were installed with no bugs or issues.
So you don’t want that, assume you are smart, and that all smart people are like you?

IT Glue | Lead Software Engineer / Lead DevOps | Full Time | Remote or Onsite | US or Canada

IT Glue has some great opportunities for experienced software devs and devops to join a market leader with an established product and a mature SaaS stack. We have a great team in place and are looking to expand our technical leadership capabilities.

itglue.com serves thousands of business customers across the world in the Managed Service Provider (MSP) industry. It is a Ruby on Rails app fully running on AWS. We use React on the front-end, Postgres and MySQL on the backend, along with Redis, Elasticsearch and more openstack tech. As with any mature stack, we have incurred some technical debt and a current focus of ours is to aggressively bring this down in the coming year.

We are looking for multiple senior hires to fulfill those needs.

You will be a great fit for the role if you have experience with past projects upgrading RoR stacks, MySQL, Postgres and ElasticSearch, or on the DevOps side, architecting continuous delivery using tools such as CloudFormation, Puppet, Capistrano. SecOps experience is also welcome, e.g. with SOC2 compliance, Hashicorp Vault, SonarQube and similar.
The ideal candidate will have several years of leadership experience with teams of engineers, and willing to own technical execution on projects and collaborate on the roadmap with our amazing product team. For lead roles, expect a team of up to 5 and >50% hands-on work. If you are not interested in leadership but have the technical chops in spades, we may still consider you for a staff/principal engineer role.

IT Glue is part of Kaseya, a much larger group serving the MSP space. As such we offer competitive packages and benefits. If you are in the region of Vancouver, BC, Canada, or Miami, Florida, you will be able to work in the office at your convenience.

My name is Olivier; I am in charge of the Engineering group at IT Glue and you can contact me directly if you are interested. Please title your email starting with "[HN - IT Glue]" and address it to othibaut at itglue dot com. No agents or consultants please.

Not really. You just need to use the apps specific pw that you can obtain from your account security page. I just did this for a bunch of Gmail accounts that have aliases setup to send out from custom domain email address.
The only change is that you have to enable 2fa to obtain an app specific pw that you then use to setup the alias or to log in into your google mail via the less secure app of your choice.
Note that there is no need for a phone number to setup 2fa as you can instead use the option of one time login codes and then validate access from your phone using any google app such as the gmail.
Imo nothing beats IRL.

Metaverse is okay but considering people are depressed and isolated being on social media today I don’t see how adding even more layers between reality is going to help.

I wish technology would make IRL better, instead of delegating all problems online.
My years of backend before that certainly influences how I see things. Maybe it would have been better if I'd drank the "modern front end" kool aid from day one. I came in a sceptic and remained one.
Absolutely agree.

I think there is a conflict of interest there, though. Managers have a vested interest in saying that their team is highly productive. Managers of highly productive teams get raises and more head count, and eventually promotions. Anything else reflects poorly on the manager.

So the managers-of-managers do need to keep their eyes on this too, but I also agree with you that it's harder for people in that higher-level position to evaluate this. I guess, as you hint at, the manager-of-managers can look at team output overall, and if that's below expectations, that's a starting point for discussion with the line manager.

I would agree that Russia and China bluff their strength but there are entire countries that run their militaries off of purely Russian/Chinese equipment. To trust your national security to something that is subpar seems like a recipe for having a bad time.

My theory is that Russia threw their D league to go fight so that no one could accuse them of them actually trying to take over.
Every pointer you can replace by a pass-by-value optional or a non-nullable reference is one less opportunity for errors.

Providing more restricted types that can replace raw pointers for many use cases makes languages safer.
And that is exactly the point made in that article. If what you put in that email can get you killed, then don't put it in an email, even encrypted.

There are just too many ways things can go wrong, and of course they will go wrong at some point.

If you need confidentiality you need, at the minimum, disappearing messages, and for that to be the case all the way, you can't rely on decentralisation systems with various implementations.

Sorry for interoperable decentralised lovers, that includes myself, but you need control over the whole chain. And email is just the opposite of this.
> Management always wants to think that they are right in every decision and the employees are the ones who are unproductive, but after decades of working for "the man" in about 10 different industries in different positions/careers, I have found the fault lies with management 80 to 90 percent of the time due to some leadership failure or combination of failures.

Getting crap reviews/evaluations because a project failed due to management screwups is the universe's way of saying "you should have left long before, but leaving now is your best available alternative."

Much of this discussion is how to protect people from the consequences of staying in a bad situation.

The correct response is to not to try to fix things, but to leave. Staying only perpetuates the problems.

Starve the beast.

All types are concrete at run time, so, no it doesn't end up needing changes: https://go.googlesource.com/proposal/+/refs/heads/master/des...

"We do not propose to change the reflect package in any way. When a type or function is instantiated, all of the type parameters will become ordinary non-generic types. The String method of a reflect.Type value of an instantiated type will return the name with the type arguments in square brackets. For example, List[int].

"It's impossible for non-generic code to refer to generic code without instantiating it, so there is no reflection information for uninstantiated generic types or functions."
They probably are not doing that. As others have pointed out, there are major hurdles to doing that.

It was clear by then that the Russian military was building up on the Ukrainian border. Additionally the ground in Ukraine is usually thawed by April, making an armored invasion much trickier. Assuming it would take the Russians one more month to make preparations, a person in December could have predicted that the Russians would invade in February or early March, if at all.
Arguably there is no road to failure, just a road to success that you never get to the end of. The hard part is not that failure is some permanent state. The hard part is that without good feedback you don't know if you're actually on a trajectory to (eventual) success, or how long it will take, or what you need to change (or do more of) to get there.

Good feedback is essential and makes the difference between wandering around blindly with no idea where you're going, and walking an (albeit difficult) path to something that might eventually look like success.
Is there any evidence of quantum attacks or even the hardware capable of performing such attacks?
You also have a lot of weird cryptographic beliefs, like "authenticated encryption is a misfeature for tools like PGP, because unauthenticated ciphertext helps with data recovery", or "GPGME definitely doesn't just execute the GPG binary in order to perform PGP operations", or "forward secrecy is overrated because people keep all their old messages around" (also: "people should keep all their old messages around"). People that also believe these weird things will find your canned reply convincing. Cryptography engineers generally will not.

The word "hoary" means "grey-haired". "Stop Using Encrypted Email" was published in 2020; even in dog years, it's not "hoary".
Nothing in my comment was in reference to the clathrate hypothesis. My comment was about methane production that is actually occurring due to ancient organic matter that is/was frozen that is now fermenting as the permafrost thaws. In the Arctic circle the land is belching out huge quantities of methane right now. Pockets have formed and exploded, sending bedrock flying a half mile in each direction. Lakes are bubbling out methane profusely. You can poke a hole in the ground and lite a fire.

100% fact.
The revelation comes after Ericsson was forced to admit it had paid ISIS to allow it to operate and travel through land controlled by the terrorist group. After it admitted to the crime earlier this month, shares in the company fell more than 14 percent.

Of course. No true programmer would be motivated by reward to produce shoddy work.
In fact the pulse travelled slower than the speed of sound. Thereby fitting more bits on the same length of wire. The transducer twisted the wire, so a rotational pulse spiraled down the wire. This takes longer time than a purely axial sound pulse.
The road to failure is also paved with rejection letters so I’m not sure it’s a terribly helpful observation.

I always find funny how people gush over the Remarkable especially the writing aspect.

I for one find the lack of progress astonishing. Because, you know, if you wanted great writing experience you could've used a CrossPad ... 25 years ago. You write on a notebook -- with a quality pen manufactured by Cross as the name suggests -- the CrossPad records it as vector strokes. Done. In 25 years the progress we got is there's a screen now but that's all. The device still can't do, say, offline OCR or indeed anything useful beyond what the CrossPad used to do.
> many of them are just overworked, underpaid, or underqualified.

Absolutely. I didn't mean to seem uncharitable to the average sysop.
We've all been there. In fact this state of affairs means that clear
legal frameworks, simple messaging that everyone understands, could be
powerful. Bad actors mainly exist at a higher level. Over-stretched
people in moral grey areas benefit from clear reasons to act
decisively, which is why we make sure soldiers get unambiguous orders.

If all sysadmins and developers knew they could go to jail for reading
or enabling another to read private communications sent with a
reasonable expectation of confidentiality, we'd be in a very different
place.

Unfortunately we've let this slip, and entered a cultural interregnum
in which we kinda expect emails to be read by others, and even assume
they will be. That's not okay. Because even if we fix-up the protocol
level there's a residual expectation that it's alright to work around
it "because we need to read peoples' emails", right?

Yes, I absolutely agree with you. If email can be fixed it has to
happen at a whole new "Tor for email" level. Hell, maybe we could all
start running our servers as open relays again, given that we'll not
know exactly what we are routing.

But I think the law has a part to play. If only to kick-start the
initiative to secure email, because right now the surveillance
capitalists and spooks are entrenched in a criminal mind-set. Caveat
Dolev-Yeo notwithstanding, one can't build trustworthy systems on that
culture however good the tech.

Thank you for maintaining these images!

One question, on the topic of ARM builds actually: I just noticed on Docker Hub that tags mysql/mysql-server:8.0 and mysql/mysql-server:8.0.28 actually lack ARM builds at the moment, is this known/intentional?

On my m1 mac, when I try to use either mysql/mysql-server:8.0 or mysql/mysql-server:8.0.28, I'm actually getting an amd64 image... it is working but is presumably emulated through qemu, which is not ideal.

There's an ARM build for mysql/mysql-server:latest, which I would expect should also be the same as 8.0.28, but its image digest differs from 8.0 / 8.0.28 even for amd64. A bit confusing...
