Fascinating site—I was surprised to see Thailand as the cheapest country on the list, although I realize that I know nothing about their trade policies.

Webcam are often positioned as cheapish accessories so PCIe is exotic, but for internal drives (parent's comment wasn't about "thumb" drives) it's pretty mainstream:

TBH, even a thumb drive would have me pissed if it disconnected at random times. That's what I hated about using the SD slot of MacBooks to host a semi-permanent drive.
So will property tax
Yeah sorry, I agree with you in spirit. I was mainly arguing against the idea that "IQ is useful" and "IQ measures the value of humans" have to either both be true or both be false. My reply is to the interpretation of your comment as "IQ doesn't and can't measure the value of humans, therefor it's not very useful," which might not have been your intent.
it’s not that Russia can’t pay. the article says Russia probably will choose not to pay. So I don’t think those things apply; it’s not a typical default
The released speed, or the overclocked speed? Let's face it, if the universe isn't overclocked, then we've got some serious hacking to do.
I tried all the browsers. Wasn't able to start the game in any of 'em.

It's precisely the same 'theory' with equities.

The price goes up because there is an inadequate supply of equities - hardly surprising given all the buy backs and lack of new issues.

Supply and demand used to be the basis of economics. If prices go up for a thing, that encourages more of the thing to be made.

So we fix it by making more stuff. That's what the market clearly wants - more houses and more investment opportunities.

The trouble with monetarists who quote 'M' series as thought they were handed down from Mt Sinai is that they are obsessed with looking at the cow from the smelly end.

It all becomes clear when you look at it from the smiley end.
Nothing wrong with that - why should Red Hat be exempt from herd mentality? Maybe they could change their name to Blue Hat or something. It's all very complicated.

Thunderbolt is more reliable, but still weirdly unstable on the software support sometimes. I don't get why we still have external monitor detection issues on macs at this day and age for instance.
Proved reserves don't equal total reserves. As an economic incentive to explore for new reserves arises, new reserves are found. See this graph of proved reserves by year since 1900: https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=R...

Of course at some point there must be a limit, but thus far when there's been sufficient incentive to look, more reserves have been found (including via new technology such as fracking).
>Maybe file serving can be hardware accelerated

Encryption aside a lot of file serving is accelerated. In Linux, apache has just called a kernel function (I forget what it's called, something unsurprisingly along the lines of socket_sendfile) to get data out on the wire, and that function itself is hardware accelerated by the network hardware through the large send offload v1 & v2 functions offered by the network card driver.
> I can’t believe this is actually legal. You show three two minute ads interspersed throughout a movie, after I specifically paid to not get ads?

Actually, that's interesting; is it? That sounds like, if you'll pardon the not-pun, False Advertising, and I would be interested in watching a lawyer tell a judge that fine print directly contradicting the big print isn't fraud.
If someone was literally questioning every line I wouldn't want to work with them at all, they probably fuss over details and have refactored 5 line functions multiple times in one day.

Otherwise, pair programming keeps people from getting "brilliant ideas" that actually aren't, or having an episode of laziness and doing something obviously not best practice. If you parse HTML with regex, your partner can tell you to stop.

It's also like a real time test of code quality. If they ask what you're doing, then you know your approach isn't instantly obvious.

The only time I get annoyed is when I work closely with the simplicity-loving dependency-fearing types, and the hacker types who always want to solve interesting problems.

My best skill as a programmer is finding ways to reinterpret a problem in terms of things that are already widely used, and make the whole project into just some glue code. I'm not too happy when someone is trying to replace my Ansible with Bash and my framework with vanilla, or my Etcher with dd.

But even then, those people are very good at spotting weaknesses in whatever I was planning, and the product is better for it, once the best-practices solution inevitably wins put eventually.
It's only for multicore performance.

I would have instantly buy it if it was twice the single core performance.
The question was what's the goal.

It's not just limiting current war capacity, but also limiting future war capacity and funds.

From my POV, that seems to be working. You say it isn't, based on what?

> the measures that would work are not being considered seriously

And what are successfull measures according to you?

Additionally, you are severely underestimating what Russia requires to occupy Ukraine vs. Invading. They need an additional willing 500 k. Troops for that. They don't have the numbers and even their FSB report mentions that.

Ps. His children live in Europe, i doubt he'll drop bombs here.
You forgot the period after the the fall of the USSR when all Soviet archives were open.

Saying Stalin prepared an attack on Germany, implying Barbarossa was a pre-emptive attack, is spreading Nazi propaganda. Nothing else.
Practically this doesn't often happen, especially on work machines. All the parts are loosely linked by generation. It's not often you want to jump forward 5 years in GPU tech but not want an upgrade in every other field. Unless you are swapping parts out yearly for the absolute latest bit, there is not a whole lot of benefit over selling your existing device and getting the new one where you will see improvements across the board.
That assumes that the situation will last 50 years. Cuba has been embargoed by the US for so long because its oligarchs all moved to Florida and Texas and took their money with them and have bought themselves some American democracy with it. My cynical side thinks that the worst case scenario (short of nukes or full-scale WWIII) where Russia essentially annexes Ukraine like China did Tibet will eventually lead to roughly the same consequences for Russia that the Chinese annexation of Tibet did for China.
If you packed those specs in to something twice the size of the mac studio it would sound like a loaded up server rack on your desk. Yes you can get absolutely massive coolers which are quiet but nothing nearly as portable as this.
And watch how that works out:)

But why would you be in army if you are coward?
This is definitely not for me. In 2022, having LCD display, huge bars and just one camera, when Android phones give me for the same price much better display and cameras, not worth the money.

But it's fine, if I was in the business of buying a new phone and wanted a discount, I would buy an old iPhone XS or 11 Pro or something. I have XS and the speed is great, I care more about screen and cameras than CPU speed. (Which is good enough anyway.)

If someone wants this, good for them I guess.
Many security mitigations have been merged into the kernel for a long time, probably longer than grsecurity has been around, but certainly something like NX-bit you could use as an example which was around the same time as early grsec (early 2000s).

Sure Linus has been hostile or funny about such things at times, but that has not prevented him from being convinced or them from being merged.
Same as in Egypt. Prices for Apple products are nuts over there.
You'll find with decent SQL and a good backend your SQL will be much quicker than your R/Matlab/Python programs depending on what you want to do.
It’s not new, it’s the history of Christian education in this country.

Here’s the thing - liberal colleges are racist, rampantly so. Cornell University for example. Despite huge scandals of student suicides due to anti-Asian hate, they still underfund their Asian lead student orgs and programs (when measured against the median).

Pretending that institutions “caving” to activist demands is a symbol of overreach ignores the truth - universities hold self-preservation far above their duty to their students. That goes double for minorities.

I had considered the Economist a source of journalism, but this is one more opinion roundup in the name of presenting both sides.

Self-censorship sucks, because it’s theater.
Oh, well, if they have a contract that says they have to lie I guess that's okay then. /s

But seriously, that's their problem, not mine; if they can't actually deliver zero ads then they can call it the "almost no ads" plan or the "no new ads" plan or whatever they want that isn't a lie.
The answers would make for a good set of data for training their systems to produce more convincing videos.
I feel it too. Going on and on about TV-shows that got awards and a new green color is called "amazing" a hundred times? It's like they gave each department a certain percentage of allocated time in the event, and those that didn't have much to show just used the same hype speech as the ones that did. It's what happens when company heads care more about a good working environment than about wasting customers time. Not bad per se, but it does show.
Someone mentioned Vatnyk

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatnik_(slang)

> Vatnik or vatnyk (Russian: ватник) is a political slur,[1][2] used in Russia and other post-Soviet states based on an internet meme that was introduced in 2011 by Anton Chadskiy, which denotes a steadfast jingoistic follower of propaganda from the Russian government.[3]

Make it 10 and it's still not unlikely to have law enforcement simultaneously break 10 doors at the same time.

The distribution technology is really interesting but certainly not censorship proof.
Tangently, I didn't about the double quotes rules of the rfc4180

> If fields are not enclosed with double quotes, then double quotes may not appear inside the fields.

Feels to me like a lot of manual implementations will break this assumption if they naively only try to deal with line breaks and delimiter escaping.

Either way, CSV is fraught enough format that I wouldn't try to ingest files of from unknown sources or from unknown generators.
Our company policy about 1:1 is pretty similar to what is outlined in this article.
I'm already paying the vegan tax. So do we add meat taxes on top of that? Can we restructure the subsidies?
Prices in Italy are currently at the equivalent of 8.3$/gallon, so I think that even your 10$/gallon threshold is too optimistic (keep also in mind that if the prices of everything rise together, and so does labor compensation, it might be hidden away in the inflation).

Maybe 20$/gallon would be what it takes for a quick transition?
This is a product experience defect, and is not intended to be deceptive. Several comments have cried “foul” on this one and we hear it loud and clear. We apologize this has persisted in the product, and can definitely see how this can be misleading.

To explain what’s happening from the inside, immediately after the sign up, we retrofit the profile data you’ve input at the signup process into our URL templates for each data broker. This provides an immediately actionable link you can click on to see if your profile is present on the other end at the data broker. Meanwhile, our automated scanner starts running to see if it can actually find your profile at each data broker. After about 1 hour, a PDF report is emailed with ~70 (on average) places on the web that your profile has been found.

What’s often really confusing, and that we definitely need to fix in the UI, is when the user starts clicking on the links and they find “no profile found” they think that something’s gone wrong, or that we’re trying to be deceptive. Even more confusing is when a dummy name like "Notareal Personxxx" is input, the links are still there for you to click through.

The defect in the product is that the UI assumes a large number of matches for each user will be found, typically 50 – 100 on average. Everything in the UI is framed up with that assumption. However, when there are only a few results, or in the extreme case where a fake name is input, and there are no results at all, the UI still frames everything up as if it were for a typical user with 50 – 100 matched profiles. The other reason this product defect has persisted is because our Free Basic users use the links to QA their own self-service opt out work. So after they’ve submitted their own opt out, they want to be able to click through the link and see that the profile is gone. This is why most people use the product with glee, but when a link leads to a “page not found”, at best people are confused, and at worst they cry “foul” of deception.

I love Show HN and Launch HN threads because the builders get so much rich feedback like this on how to improve the product. This is the best feedback that we’ll take with us and start hammering away on immediately. Thank you!

We do have a Help Desk post describing what’s happening with these links, but we need to update it and make it more clear based on this feedback. You can find a little more information on how these links work here:

Consider the Thermometer
I think you have defined "queue" too narrowly in the context of the OP article. MQs are one thing, but the article is about queues as data structures.

A directory of files to be processed may be treated as a queue. Add several directories for different stages of processing, and you have a rudimentary state machine.

Distributed systems in particular may benefit from an MQ, but are by no means necessary.

Generally, when we add an MQ we are really regulating an already existing implicit queue. It's such a common and intuitive data structure that one may easily create one without even realizing it.
Or the overhead of co-ordinating multiple cores is starting to matter more and more the more cores you have.

A few comments on this from an Indian perspective. Apple products are quite expensive here too, when compared against U.S. prices (plus sales tax). It may seem as if this is because of customs duties, but that’s not the entire story.

Many companies tend to have geographically differentiated pricing to expand their market and make more money. Even if the prices aren’t completely matching the local currency equivalent (with respect to USD) and local conditions, they would have some compensation applied.

Apple has historically been against differentiated pricing, especially for its hardware. It also focuses heavily on retaining its 35% (approx.) profit margins. Only on a few services has Apple reduced pricing in the recent years in some countries (for example, in India, Apple Arcade, Apple TV+ and Apple Music are priced at nearly one fourth of the U.S. prices, but iCloud is priced the same as in the U.S.).

I’m not saying that all Apple hardware products are sold at the USD price plus local customs duties and taxes in other regions, but almost all of them are. What’s more ridiculous is that the prices don’t go down much even when Apple is assembling products locally and doesn’t have to pay as much in duties (a few iPhone models are assembled in India).

Since Apple has this business model, people in India who do know of someone coming from the U.S. or Dubai or another country/location where these are cheaper ask them to purchase those there and bring them down. There are several “Bring me this from there (BMTFT)” groups on social media to connect people.

For individual travelers the duty free limit (legal) plus duty evasion (not legal) in certain cases offer big incentives not to buy locally. I’m sure there’s plenty of organized smuggling also going on.

Whatever metrics Apple is tracking on sales by country get skewed by this, tilting heavily towards U.S. and other countries and making them seem larger than they are, while also making the countries with typically weaker currencies and higher duties seem as smaller markets than they are. (I know Apple can get country wise usage numbers from its telemetry in iOS, the App Store and other Apple apps)

Yes, I understand the requirements for EU/NATO membership and that Ukraine is a long way from there. I thought it was realistic given the circumstances: Ukraine is quite literally fighting for eastern Europe - including those countries that have already acceded to the EU. I can't see any other way to look at it given the facts that have already surfaced. While the EU and NATO waffle over the extent it is willing to risk engaging in this war, Ukraine is getting destroyed, but may yet do enough to set back Putin's designs by 30 or more years, if not permanently. I believe such an outcome should confer the deserved right to special treatment for Ukraine by both the EU and NATO. However, perhaps I am too romantic in this regard as even at this time I'm sensing stodginess on the part of the EU and NATO.
Mostly yes -- American residential developments built after 1960 or 1970 have typically forbidden any commerce. There are often no sidewalks either.
Is it ergonomical? I've never heard of anyone that actually uses a touchscreen at work. The artists I know all uses expensive Wacom tablets because how else would you paint without neck pain for 8 hours a day?

I completely agree, our marketing message needs to hammer in the concept that a Litebulb interview is pretty much just picking up a ticket off the backlog. We've actually had candidates say that halfway through an interview they forgot they were in an interview.

Also, the biggest problem prepping for tech interviews is that it's a different vertical of skills you're optimizing on. As you said, getting better at LeetCode doesn't necessarily make you a better engineer for the specific job you're being hired on to do. One of our goals at Litebulb is that if you're a good dev, you shouldn't need to prep for any Litebulb interviews. If you do prep, all you're doing is making yourself a better developer in general.
But this seems to be neither software nor does it actually make it more difficult to sell data. Its a servive that sends opt out requests for you. As far as I can see there is no legal value to this, nor is this sustainable - the next scrape and you're back in. There is (obviously) no guarantee that you data won't be sold, nor any guarantee that their opt out requests don't become basically a signal for 'this is a real person with money to spare'.
Mobile games have been bigger than PC or console for awhile, and a few of the titles are massively popular and profitable. Though App Store review policies differ in permissiveness, the approach from below has been the industry model both on iOS and Android. Remind me what you were saying needs to change.
That's funny, after the west confiscated Russian money abroad, what were they expecting?

Private property should be defended always, not only when you're the recipient, otherwise you wreck your reputation.

All wars are terrible but this Ukrainian invasion is no worse than any other wars the west pursued in the middle east in the name of freedom.

I understand it's now virtuous to shit on Russian people (which is ridiculous: you're blaming random people for the action of their government on which they have little control) but these sanctions were uncalled for and are just harming people of Russian origin.

I would understand more sending the army to fight along Ukraine, then sanctioning Russia.
Let's hope the other guy stays ;)

> Among the major brands that purchased ad space that was labeled incorrectly in auctions were Sears, Nike, Adidas, Ford, State Farm, Starbucks, Kia and Marriott. Representatives for those advertisers didn’t respond to requests for comment.

> “Programmatic advertising relies on a lot of data being self-reported by those selling the ads,” Mr. Vickers said. “That this issue went undetected for so long suggests that the processes in place to verify this information are not sufficient.”

Why the fuck are we collecting all of this personal information on users of the web to "improve ad targeting" when it appears that the industry as a whole is grossly incompetent at measuring the efficacy of their advertising campaigns?
3 steps that work for me (in CS i'm self-taught, but still after 20 years in the industry regularly put my ego aside to learn another new idea/techstack etc.):

1. Focus on specific task first. The most simple you can have.

2. Find someone more experienced in this area to mentor you to achieve the task.

3. Repeat with more complicated task.
Wouldn't arbitrarily advanced technology be able to move it around with gravity or sense collections of it with some kind of LIGO but with gamma rays for even more precision or something?

Arbitrarily advanced is pretty strong in a world where some people think dyson sphere scale stuff could be real.
> Systems like Power System E980 can handle up to 64TB RAM, which is a lot of data.

Doesn't that kind of system cost millions of dollars?

Hadoop and the like are popular because they run on COTS hardware that costs peanuts. It hardly makes any sense to argue that spending over a million dollars is enough to drop a solution that's primarily adopted because you do not have that kind of money to throw at a problem.
Yes, blind tests have shown that users are easily able to discern between 60 vs 144hz.
