Ask HN: Open Sourcing Sun Network Extensible Window System (NeWS)
Kind of like HTML+CSS+JS, but PostScript from top-to-bottom.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeWS

DonHopkins comments at length about it.

I wonder if there are any Oracle contacts out there who could get the ball rolling on open-sourcing this, if only for historical purposes?
I have a lot of fond memories from around those times too. especially when linuxworld expo was in San Jose. you could drive by the VA Linux offices. Caldera OpenLinux was in a box at Fry's.

thanks for the fun memories. :)
"The highest severity issue fixed in these releases is HIGH"...

The old iMac Pro used to cost an absurd amount - like $5k IIRC. That is the old entry level "pro" Mac.

Which is quite a bit more than the studio + display.

A vanilla iMac (or blueberry :D ) is a consumer device.
> Network IO discussion: https://github.com/axboe/liburing/issues/536

I see an issue with a narrative but zero discussion at that link.

Furthermore, your io_uring benchmark being utilized in that issue isn't even batching CQE consumption. I've submitted a quick and dirty untested PR adding rudimentary batching at [0]. Frankly, what seems to be a constant din of poorly-written low-effort benchmarks portraying io_uring in a negative light vs. epoll is getting rather old.

I think the EU mandated micro USB before - which was really bad. I was glad that Apple just did the extra dongle or whatever instead of switching everything to that crap.

USB-C is better than micro-usb. That said, if you do audio mixing, if you do a ton of cycle on a charger, lightning is just clearly better. The USB standard has a little plastic thing in the middle of the hole this fatigues. Apple offered lighting but I know folks just didn't want to do the standard because it would be adminiting that their micro-usb standard was not as good. They did copy a lot of lighting with USB C however (reversible connector etc).
Obviously you don't need consensus protocols if you are not trying to build consensus...

It's like asking why we need filesystems and network cards if all we're trying to do is show lights on screens. Obviously not all patterns of lights are as easy to produce on computers.
You mentioned punching bags.

What if the punching bag is a person or pet or something able to hurt?

Sometimes their adrenaline never wears off so there is no test to run again.
You don’t need a deep fake for that though, traditional editing techniques would work.
I can't put a 3090 into a 3.5 liter case. Even a 10 liter case is really pushing it. That's before mentioning power savings. 3090 real world power when in use is something like 4x as high.
I like kind, its great. But you still need a docker daemon and on a mac docker desktop is still king.
You also need to compare the right cpu. M1 Ultra cpu is the equivalent of the fastest threadripper. Which costs $3990.
So a pc with similar performance would be $7500
PC gamers do. Console gamers don't. And there are a lot more of the latter than the former.
I always felt like the Touch Bar was needed so people could "see" something to compensate for the cost of the touchid + whatever the MacBook called the Secure Enclave? (I know it's T2 in the iMac)
On Twitter there is no nuance, you must pick a side.
He proposes a causal mechanism, it’s fair to point out that it doesn’t explain why other countries are strongly anti-drug, without offering an alternative hypothesis.

The US drug war is international with respect to a few drug producing countries, but had very little influence elsewhere, such as in Asia. In my home country of Bangladesh the recent proposal is to make the death penalty available for drug traffickers and dealers. Nixon had no influence in Bangladesh (and in fact is strongly disliked because he supported Pakistan in the independence war).

Anti-drug sentiment arises out of cultural attitudes. Drug use is viewed as anti-social, because it often makes you less suitable for work, and degenerate. Some cultures are less forgiving of this than others. This is true in America and other highly religious countries, like Bangladesh, Iran, and the Philippines. But it’s also true in certain countries that aren’t highly religious but place a high cultural priority on industriousness, such as Sweden and Japan.

So I suspect you’ve got the Nixon anecdote backwards. Nixon didn’t cultivate anti-drug attitudes out of racism. The harnessed a reactionary sentiment against 1960s liberalism—which included trying to normalize drug usage—to stoke existing Puritan attitudes against drug use. His racism was in treating drug use as an issue especially relating to Black people, as opposed to being a vice common to white people and Black people alike.
Wait a minute what kind of NLP you talking about here?
> There’s no scroll bar

I’m interested in what platform you’re using, because I wasn’t aware that any made a visual distinction of the error they’ve made. Specifically, they have the root element hiding overflow (well, it’s #site-window that does the actual `overflow: hidden`, but it and its ancestors control their height to 100% of the viewport), and an element inside that (#site-main-views) being the scrolling element. I noticed this because keyboard navigation (Up/Down/PageUp/PageDown/Home/End) failed to work, since the initial containing block doesn’t have any scrolling, and you have to focus the scrolling element (e.g. with Tab or clicking in it) before keyboard navigation will work.
We doubled our usage in 20 years between 1980 and 2000, more than doubled it the 20 years before then. It was possible then, why is it impossible now?

https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/electricity/electricity-...

FWIW, I'm not one of those people who think we'll save the planet if only everyone drove EVs. Changing over to EVs is only a fraction of GHG emissions and other pollution issues. There's tons of other stuff we can be working on as well instead of spending all our focus trying to get everyone to buy EVs and pat eachother on the backs. I do think we should work on making more sustainable cities and reduce the need for cars for those who don't want them. I just don't know why doubling our generation capacity over 20 years is seemingly impossible when we were doing it pretty much all the time except for the last 20 years when demand leveled off.
I already torrent some Netflix content for fear of them removing it after some set date arbitrarily (e.g. Gloria, Umbrella Academy)

Netflix as far as I'm concerned, is just the newest member of "Big Content" with essentially the same behaviors except they are 'streaming first'...beyond that, no different.

Like Google, they will eventually forget everything that made them appealing in the first place and be trash, with the commensurate backlash to go with it.
Re: compute vs. Graphics pipelines: “and also considerably understates that these pipelines are physically different circuits in your GPU”

Wait what?? Can someone fill me in? Why would they have different hardware? Compute is compute, even if the computer is mostly good at triangles.
It's because suburbs are subsidized in the current system. Roads, infrastructure, and other upkeep costs are paid by the entire city but since the denser regions are more productive/profitable, they end up paying for the services that suburban residents are using. If suburban residents had to pay for the real cost of their housing, then I think it would be a lot less appealing. Building suburbs is terrible city planning and it's sad that cities are continuing to endorse them.
Itanium had a decent service life and a reasonable install base. It didn't take off because of economies of scale and Intel not really wanting to introduce a big x86/x64 competitor.

The Itanium platform was totally unaffected by Spectre/Meltdown type attacks, you may note.
Where are you getting that size information from?

My concerns:

1) I don't think the camera isn't stationary (the first few seconds make this pretty clear). Wouldn't a parallax speed illusion require a moving observer? and in this case a RAPIDLY moving observer? (Edit: It seems this was in fact on an F/A-18, just at very long range.)

2) I don't see any wings.

3) If this system trivially locked onto birds, I'm pretty sure it would get tossed out to sea due to all the false positives.

Here is an actual F/A-18 pilot discussing the ATFLIR videos with regards to these UFO sightings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbQdksSakE0 including what every indicator on the display means. I tried to find the ATFLIR manual PDF but failed lol.

I’m sorry, but what do you mean by “we”? You and I benefit nothing from the current status quo. A small group of people get rich off resources below our collective feet and we all pay more for practically everything.

You cannot diagnose/debug host controller hardware/driver issues with usbmon. It does not work at a low enough layer. It's only good for debugging issues with downstream devices. You also cannot tell whether certain problems are the host controller's fault or the downstream device's fault with it. You need a physical USB protocol analyzer that works at the packet level for that (usbmon works at the transaction level).
Also wondering if the brain damage might have had something to do with the increase in violence/petty crime we saw within the last year or so. Maybe its more than just people being cooped up all the time.
Since we're wildly speculating on N=1 scenarios with no control group...

Perhaps the invasion was planned for a second term, and COVID threw a giant wrench in the works.
North Korea only exists because the Chinese government wills it. Maybe we are trading Russia for Taiwan to the Chinese with the option on an uprising as best case.
I actually think this is a very good design decision. So you dont use it when it is plugged in.

I still have problem with its flatness though. Somehow people who like it being flat are also the ones who love butterfly keyboard. And I intensely dislike both.
I'm not used to either Biden or Trump, as I do not follow US politics much. I am also uninterested in spending much time analysing the video, and watched it portrait mode on my phone. I found many of the fakes convincing at a glance.

Honestly, everyone going on about how obvious the fakes are seems a little silly. If the technology is here now in this form. It might already be far more impressive elsewhere, and doubtlessly will be far more impressive in the future. We should have a discussion about what that future might look like.

Mislabelled. Just talking about higher ed as either worthwhile learning or just social signalling, as though they were even an either-or to begin with.
What a nifty startup. I love the idea of using software to make it more difficult to sell my personal information. I'm not sure why I care enough to pay, but after reading this post, I do, and I signed up. (I'm awaiting my report and will probably upgrade after reading it.)
What is Putin’s exit strategy going to be on all this? Russia will be unrecognizable after this and surely the people won’t accept that and at some point even the military and police will change sides. Or does he have that much control he can keep pushing things?
It works exactly as intended, just click on the show results for worldle instead.
Getting the voice accurate would be very hard, even if you only used existing words they've said to make up the false domain. I've tried editing audio that way and it still sounds like when a video game ai stitches dialog together.
I’ve tried three times to write why I think this is, and each time I get lost in my reasoning. Alas, I’ve been on mobile for this whole thread and I don’t have any more brain cells to try to code like this tonight lol
That's true, but the only old hardware that actually seems to be kept running is old analog stuff, or things that probably shouldn't still be running, like kerosene lamps as actual everyday lighting and gas leafblowers at 6AM.

Everyone's priorities are so skewed towards tech being disposable and analog being valuable, nobody really seems to mind all that much if they have to upgrade hardware. Especially when until recently there really was a benefit because pre-2018ish Android phones and the like were kind of laggy.

A more depression-like "Use it up, wear it out" kind of mindset might make us be more up in arms when our phones stop getting updates, but if it also makes developers constantly want to push the capabilities of those machines it probably won't run that well.

The deprecated hardware thing might a separate issue though, devs and companies like to sell stuff, and don't really understand that a new phone is a major purchase for the rest of us.

It's partly solved now by purely brute force, hardware is now good enough that you can't make badly performing app unless you very aggressively refuse to care about performance whatsoever, just basic laziness isn't enough when all the frameworks are pretty optimized.

But it's still an issue on servers and definitely still an issue in the open source world, where everyone now tacks a coin onto everything and uses tons of electricity.

It can take a long time for conflicting theories to resolve in neuroscience. For example, the existence of adult neurogenesis in humans is still hotly debated despite at least a decade or two of papers on both sides. Meanwhile, it has already been accepted as a fact by the news media, and has begun to appear in self help books as evidence of the ability to 're-wire the brain'.

So, enjoy your sound machine. I'm sure bad sleep is probably implicated in hearing loss, too. Or at least it will be once the right grad student reads this comment.
I still look forward to them but these more recent ones are just way too formulaic and polished.

I do miss the old Steve Jobs keynotes.
I think there's a lesson to be learned from this wisdom, but putting yourself out there, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakes is invaluable.

I would rather reveal my ignorance or say the occasional dumb thing than remain bogged down by my own ignorance or stupidity because I adhere to some proverbs about silence that I read on the internet. Making those mistakes is how I grow.
Apple is the world's biggest and most profitable gaming company. For every AAA gamer, there are a hundred casual gamers (one reason why Nintendo consoles run circles around Sony and Microsoft).

Apple has invested billions into their gaming division. The big thing they need right now is a new version of Metal that gets feature parity with Vulkan or DX.

Also of note, there are very persistent rumors of an upcoming VR headset. Their M1 alone would blow away competition like the Quest. A Pro or max chip with some disabled CPU cores wouldn't cost a ton due to being scavenged cores and would positively stomp the competition.

Interesting, thanks for the info. Unfortunately a bit too late to edit/delete my previous post.
Is there something specific about oxidized metal that electrons need quantum tunneling to move through them? Why can't we just assume its normal conductivity?
Not the top-of-the-line threadripper (which can go up to 32c/64t), but probably similar to the 5950x (16c/32t), which costs like 1000$.

But you’re comparing apples to oranges, because the real advantage of M1 chips is the unified memory - almost no CPU-GPU communication overhead, and that the GPU can use ginormous amounts of memory.
I respect your opinion and I am not Russian, so I don't have skin in the game. But, I wonder if you realize your comment paints yourself as the ultimate victim.

There is also a strong sense of victim blaming for Ukraine's defensive action. It's equivalent of an abusive boyfriend beating her girlfriend up and then blaming her for defending herself.

That might just be a UX issue. If the Exposure Risk Scan were instantaneous rather than ~1hr I think (optimistically) that the result page wouldn't be misleading as a whole.

That said, I did confirm your observed behavior with securely random identifiers (in the off-chance that "Notareal Personxxx" is _actually_ sufficiently commonly used for testing that it was slurped up by data brokers).

I have seen this too. A woman wanted to buy an iMac Pro and after the sales guy heard her use case he kept saying the regular iMac was more than enough. She ended up getting that instead.
So what percentage would you state would be destined for export?
Nobody's arguing that.
You are comparing the power source (370W) to the CPU/SOC (120W). The power supply provides power for USB-C/Thunderbolt ports and it’s never a good idea to spec a power supply too low and run it too close to capacity.
Huh? Neural engine is certainly usable by developers. You just use the CoreML framework.

> Long term, the hand-holding is counter productive for most developers.

Most developers will never set up a Kubernetes cluster from scratch, and they don't need to know how to do it, and outside of very small companies they probably won't even be allowed to do it. At most they will write a Helm chart or something similar, in order to install their software in a Kubernetes cluster that is maintained by SRE or a cloud provider.

I'm parroting the concerns raised by istjohn. Why in the world would you make it seem like a free user's exposures are was higher than they likely actually are to increase conversion opportunities.

Why not provide stronger and better opt out guides like Removaly does if you're sincerely trying to help others instead of increasing conversion opportunities to pay back your VC funders?
Not in this case. Visitors to this site are only pulling data from a torrent, not hosting any data for other visitors.
If you want to help host the torrent then you'd be seeding the whole database by default. Torrents are split into blocks and there is no easy way to choose to only download/seed specific blocks of a single file.
> My point was that you are actually very rarely in the case that studies are in conflict to the point that the best you can do is personal experience

I didn't make my point very clearly, but my actual view is that only the researchers who perform a study and their immediate scientific peers are able to determine whether a study is reliable and what conclusions can actually be drawn from it. I say this as someone who worked in academic research.

> To paraphrase Churchill: science is the worst system we have for understanding these sorts of things, except for all the others.

Preaching to the choir, there. I'm not arguing against science.
Pretty sure you are not the only person to ever say my name is "Notareal Personxxxx" in detroit. The internet is a very large place and has been around for a pretty long time at this point with billions of people entering "real" info into forms all over the world every day. If just one person did it before you, and that one persons info got collected and sold, you have the situation you are seeing.

No comment on if the service is real or whatever, just that your "test" is flawed.
No need to be pedantic. "We" as in the American people, as represented by their democratically elected representatives.

Piggybacking.. What's a good resource to learn SQL from scratch?

Maybe out of ignorance, but in all the years I've programmed I've never had a situation when I said to myself "I need a database"! I either have data in maps/vectors in memory or if I need tables I'll use some table datastructure (like in R/Matlab). So reading a CSV file into a SQL table seems a bit weird - though maybe some people have multi-gig CSV files? I guess at a certain size (when it can't fit in RAM?) you gotta turn to SQL - or maybe I should be using SQL for smaller/simpler problems as well - but I don't really know where to start.

> It didn't take off because of economies of scale and Intel not really wanting to introduce a big x86/x64 competitor.

Intel didn't want to make 64-bit x86, but the market prefered amd64 over itanium.
Not to mention that the vast majority of the imports are from western Canada going to refineries in the Midwest (which makes sense that the cost to import is cheaper than because the distance is actually closer than other producing areas of the US where there is more refining demand (gulf coast). Not to mention no one has built a new refinery in the past ~60 years (Guesstimate) and two thirds of the refining capacity is on the gulf coast - which means in some cases a cargo from Venezuela is cheaper than shipping oil from alaska (as a stupid example.

If you have a precise enough timing and the machine is quiet enough, then yes you could always do it given enough time, but the question then becomes how to interpret the data that you do manage to read. Keys look like random data, and passwords are probably recognisable with enough semiautomated effort; but even if you manage to isolate those "needles in the haystack", you still have next to no idea what "lock" the key is for.
