I always thought the main benefit of a house was a little buffer space from my neighbors. Houses are also a lot of work to maintain. We didn’t start in a house I liked. Our first two houses were fixer uppers. I learned to do a lot myself. After 15 years, our third house is finally somewhere I enjoy living. The main thing to pay for when buying a house is location. If it in a good location, even if it isn’t perfect, it will still sell. I guess I also don’t think of life with kids as stable. As much as I love them, their schedules are always changing. I find it rather hectic.

Hyperbole sounds good but what about sanctions on nations carrying out all the other military operations bombing people presently with US arms and even military assistance ? (Saudi bombing Yemen for some years now)
Ok, so you'll delay it a bit. But what happens when it inevitably doubles or triples? You can't delay forever.
I’ve refused the phrase “riddled with security bugs” to describe XML parsers.
The "overview" is just a graphic with links to an event page and video content. That isn't an overview. An overview is a blurb of text summarizes the subject matter.

I am really, really sick of these gated "watch the video" information vehicles. I read much faster than video plays: stick to text if you want my attention for things like this.
Won't there be a Pluton-based anti-cheating solution? Seems like a natural opportunity for Microsoft.

Edit: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/01/pluto... says

> Microsoft already used Pluton to secure Xbox Ones and Azure Sphere microcontrollers against attacks that involve people with physical access opening device cases and performing hardware hacks that bypass security protections. Such hacks are usually carried out by device owners who want to run unauthorized games or programs for cheating.

So initially you could have Pluton-only servers and down the line non-Pluton hardware will simply be obsolete.
You are arguing that Ukrainians are to be denied self determination?
i wonder if competitors bidding on your brand should be construed as trade mark violations - after all, if a user searches a brand and a competitor's site or product is shown as part of advertising, then aren't they making use of your brand to confuse the consumer (a classic trade mark violation)? The only problem is that the user isn't "seeing" the brand and confusing it, but instead is searching the brand and the search result is confusing deliberately.
No, that's a complete photon, just one with a different wavelength. A half photon would have E = hc/2λ; that is, half the energy for the same wavelength.
If you have money, and it’s your house then you get the old paint stripped when you repaint. If you are buying a home, and there is lead paint, then you negotiate down on the price to compensate for removal.

Landlords of shitty apartments or houses just slap a new coat of the cheapest possible paint over the old.

But what about the below, does it work in your language? I assume it may work in some languages but not all.

/*

let a = 1;

/* a is one */

let b = 2;

*/
When or if.
I've been programming for 54 years. Languages come and go in a career. For me, each new language was an enthralling experience, an adventure. Mostly I think this was because each new language came with some valuable new insight in how to do my work. I don't know if that is true any more. I get the impression that there are too many new languages and paradigms. I suspect this is a confusing burden that detracts from the enjoyment. There doesn't seem to be a clear evolutionary path anymore. I imagine this weighs on a programmer's mind.
In games with fast motion, 120hz vs 240hz is easily perceptible (outside first person shooters it’s not good to provide much value). I would be fine with 120hz for desktop work, but 60hz displays has been a gripe of mine about Macs for a long time. 120+hz was available on CRTs 25 years ago…

"Whether Russia considers NATO to have intervened is less a function of whether the facts on the ground justify that assertion, and more a function of whether Russia wants a war with NATO. It will decide based on strategic considerations and manufacture or ignore the facts as necessary to justify its decision."

If that were true, NATO would have at least have sent troops to defend Ukraine.

We know that if NATO uses nukes against Russia, Russia will nuke back.

Nuclear war will also almost certainly result from a direct non-nuclear confrontation between NATO and Russia.

Everything short of that is a murky, gray area. We are in uncharted waters, where one wrong move or miscalculation could mean the end of civilization as we know it, and possibly all of humanity.

I wouldn't be surprised if both Russia and the US have already started working through their WW3 contingency plans and watching each other very closely like two gunfighters looking to see who's going to draw first.

The slightest hint of starting to move towards a direct confrontation could quickly and easily result in a corresponding or even more provocative response, and then spiral out of control.
when you say driven by ideology, you mean they are neo-nazis ?
A Manifesto for Tech Interviewees
We've all heard the tech industry's lament that there are not enough software engineers to meet demand but you wouldn't know it judging by some of the brain-dead hiring processes I come across routinely after 20 years as a software engineer. Typically experience in solving business problems with code gets lost in a fog of buzzword devops criteria in the initial stage interview before the candidate has had a chance to display any proficiency as a software developer. It's not that Agile isn't important but prioritising it above the ability to solve business problems is just plain wrong. So I have resolved to present all future interviewers with my own set of criteria before a minute of my time is wasted and I hope this may be of use to some of you who find yourself in a similar situation.

Hi <interviewer name>

I understand that I am applying for a Ruby developer role and I am happy to be interviewed based on my ability to solve business problems with Ruby. If your selection process prioritises other criteria, however, such as proficiency with:

- Agile methodology
- Continuous Integration/Delivery
- Containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Deployment (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Message queues
- Caching strategies

... then I will not be applying for the role as I consider these to be skills which a developer should be given the chance to acquire on the job.

I am happy to participate in a single-stage code interview according to the following criteria:

- It shall not exceed 2 hours.
- No-one will be looking over my shoulder.
- The subject matter of the code test be representative of your business domain.
- No abstract algorithm quizzes.

If "cultural fit" is more important to you than my ability to solve business problems with code then let's not waste each other's time as I have found this to be a convenient smokescreen for ageism and other forms of discrimination. Otherwise, if your interview process can be conducted within these guidelines I think you will find that I have a lot of experience which could add value to your business.

and eat Russia's scarse, expensive food

Now that Russia is the world's biggest wheat producer, it seems that Russian food will be neither scarce nor expensive. And also seeing that it produces a good proportion of the world's fertiliser, it seems that food grown elsewhere will be scarce and expensive.
I'm sure it came down to only having the resources to do one of them.
I fail to see the relevance to this conversation, and I have zero desire to get into this on HN of all places.

My point was about how some people cannot simply “agree to disagree” when important issues are at stake. I provided some simple examples. It’s quite annoying that some people insist on litigating the examples instead of discussing the actual point.
That's an interesting idea. I'd certainly like to see that case made.

Funny, one of the reasons I’m considering the new Mac Studio is specifically perf/watt, and I’ve been tethered-laptop for about a decade. I want a good fast computer that also stays cool without an absurd power draw. In that, the specs I have in mind are the same between the Studio and MBP (lowest CPU to get 64 GB RAM), and the Studio is about $1000 cheaper for that config.

How do you version your large files for machine learning?
Just tar your data and put it in s3? use a shared folder in NFS? or use git-like solutions, like DVC, Git LFS?

Undoubtedly, putting large files in s3 (or similar object store) or NFS is the most common solution. However, when it comes to version control, Git is the defacto solution. But Git is not designed for versioning large files. If we want to put large files on S3, why don’t we just use a tool that does the data versioning just on top of S3? This is the motivation why we develop the ArtiV(Artifact Versions), a version control tool for large files.

For more detail, I recommend you to read this blog post

Buying a home pre-1978 is a mess. Every contractor asks "what year is the home". If you state something before 1978 - they wont open a wall, touch old tiles, do roof work, etc. Contractors immediately offer one of their friends to do asbestos removal or lead work. I had water leak in a 1967 home. Just to throw away plaster walls cost a fortune: "hazardous material". It looked like a sci-fi movie people in full outfits, full plastic wrapped rooms, negative pressure systems, air locks. My home insurance wouldn't pay - then dropped me that year.
If anyone's interested in alternatives, one of their main competitors, Removaly, openly maintains a list of all the players in the field:

https://removaly.com/category/comparisons/

Both Removaly and Optery are pretty solid, but if you want something your friends and family can actually afford, then nothing beats EasyOptOuts.

$20 a year and they're pretty good at what they do. The only catch is that while services like Removaly do daily scans (no other player in this game does it at that high of a frequency) EOO only does a removal every 4 months or so. Regardless, the vast majority of sites don't re-add people so even if you only get scanned once it'll make a huge difference
From what I've seen on HN, things about tech implementations and software libraries are generally rock-solid. But if you venture into something else, such as QM, the humanities or god-forbid politics, that's when it becomes a nightmare mix of pseudo-intellectualism.

That isn't to say that there aren't voices from experts in those fields that contribute to the discussion, but they are usually drowned out with "The sample size it too small" with an n=20000 or "they aren't letting different ideas into [insert scientific field here]" as they've mentioned further up in this thread.
I didn't take the test, but one thing I worry about is that the existence of mediocre fakes makes people more confident in their ability to spot fakes when in reality they might just not be catching the ones that are well-done. There's aren't many feedback loops in most people's lives whereby if someone believed something that was fake they'd be corrected and learn to be more skeptical.
Not an iOS fan but if I was I always really liked the rectangular bodies so much better. Not to mention when they were stainless steel they scratched a whole lot less easily.
There are dedicated ML cards from Nvidia for that, far most powerful than a 3090, so that is indeed true. But PPW is never irrelevant when someone is doing things at scale, so the question becomes: who is doing this for money but somehow not at scale?

That’s cool. I am not the vast majority of developers. I am me. I use a desktop for high-end game development. I don’t give a shit about web development or laptop development. I care about compiling large C++ projects as fast as possible.

I agree that most developers are web/mobile developers who use a laptop. That’s great. I am an increasingly niche developer.

The root comment was a comparison against Threadripper. Normal developers should not waste money on a Threadripper. If someone is a niche developer that warrants a Threadripper then pointing out that most developers don’t need a Threadripper is a waste of time.

MAD would mean no way out.

I think the theory goes like this: Putin going down is a way out, and there are younger, hungrier deadly men in the military, and really scary oligarchs and gangsters with the resources to give Putin a good fight. He can't unilaterally initiate nuclear conflict, because Russia put competent people and rules in place to avoid self-destruct failure modes. The idea is that the world makes it clear that the choices are massive conflict, up to and including nuclear, or taking Putin down. This puts Putin in the place between Russian rock and the nato hard place, giving him the option of backing down.

If Putin just doesn't give a fuck anymore, if he is ill or just feeling like it's time to go out in a blaze of glory, we'll see what other actions the geniuses in power decide on.
Feit Electric PAR38 55W 5000-lumen Daylight LED light bulb has some advantages over the corn bulb:

- Mount it in a floor lamp and it throws most of its light upward to the ceiling.

- No fan.

The downside is that it's fewer lumens. I use two of these, in torchiere-style lamps on both sides of my desk. The lamps make my desk area as bright as outdoors on a cloudy day.

My productivity went up a lot when I started using these lamps.
And the single core shouldn’t be much different anyway, it’s the same core with some more airflow.

Is the demo down for anyone else? It's stuck loading. Chrome on MacOS
Yep, that's true. You have to use the DC SKUs which (IIRC) aren't the same silicon either. Worse: some of the server SKUs are restricted for market segmentation where your ML and hashing performance is bad but video is good (and the other way around).

The silly thing about it is that most of the special engines can now be flashed into an FPGA which is becoming more common in the big clouds so special offload engines aren't that big of a deal when they are missing. So in some cases you can have your cake and eat it too; massive parallel processing and specialised processing in the same server box without resorting to special tricks (as long as it's not suddenly getting blocked in future software updates).
Is rust LTO actually parallelizable?
Perhaps it would be more accurate to say "Lost US$120k because, like nearly everyone else, he was running insecure software, but he gave it control over US$120k."

99% of computer security has been a public relations scam for decades: measures like virus scanners that can't work even in theory. As long as there was no incentive to break into random people's laptops, ordinary users couldn't tell the difference between fake security and real security; either way they were pretty safe.

Experts like those at the NSA could tell the difference, but instead of publicizing reliable information about computer security to put the American information economy on a solid footing, they were undermining it with backdoors. And everyday people can't tell the difference between real experts and fake experts any more than they can tell the difference between real security and fake security.

Cryptocurrency changes that situation, but it may already be too late.

Fortunately we have developed software with real security over the last couple of decades, though very little of it. For example, seL4, NaCl, CHERI, and a few other bright points.

Unfortunately, we have broadly adopted interoperability standards like HTML5 that are orders of magnitude too complex to ever be implemented securely by humans, and even Opera and Microsoft have given up on implementing them even insecurely; the progressive concentration of design and fabrication power in the hands of a small number of companies like Intel, AMD, and Huawei has guaranteed hardware backdoors such as Intel ME in most computing devices; and in many cases the legitimization of DRM by malicious actors like Netflix, the US Congress, and Tim Berners-Lee has criminalized the investigation and correction of these dangerous vulnerabilities.

So just at the moment when we finally have the tools to do things right and the need to do so, we are unable to apply them.

What should we do about that? I don't know. But it's a huge problem, and it's just going to get bigger.

Fortune's advice to "Enable two-factor authentication for online accounts", though, is terrible. If you have thousands of dollars, don't store it on somebody else's web site; store it on your own hardware. Someone else's web site is useful as an exchange, not a store of value. If you have tens of thousands of dollars, store it on a separate computer that never connects to the internet, or in a cold wallet.

Trezor may be a helpful option, I don't know. It's certainly easier to set up Trezor than a non-internet-connected Linux box, and it weighs less. But Trezor is probably the fattest target for Bitcoin thieves right now, and they might let malicious firmware slip through at some point.

Forthcoming OpenSSL Releases
Yeah I was a physics major and honestly it felt like we barely scratched the surface. An undergraduate degree in physics is sufficient to be a high school physics teacher, but not to be a physicist of any sort.
Same here! I'm not a native English speaker, I live in the US but don't follow politics. I got a lot of Biden ones wrong because I haven't watched as many videos of him as Trump's videos. I also marked some real videos as fakes because I thought there is no way Biden or Trump would talk about this specific subject in this way.

Maybe we are missing some tricks to pick out the fakes.

For the majority of folks here who picked out the fakes easily, do you feel if you can do the same if the videos were of Putin speaking in Russian (with subtitles), or speaking in English with a very thick accent?
Except in the PPC days they didn’t even have a power advantage, which is why there never was a PowerBook G5.
The Mac studio seems targeted at pro users doing things like video editing and CAD. The M1 regular is good but its insufficient in a lot of ways. It can only power one video output, it's capped at 16GB memory, and if you try to do anything sufficiently demanding like gaming, it really shows its limits.

If you are doing CAD, things like fluid/particle physics simulations can really slam the CPU. The M1 Ultra isn't marketed to the normal user just doing some web browsing. Its the top tier chip for people who find the M1 insufficient.
you again dumped a pile of steaming Russian propaganda in order to rationalize genocide. It is somehow got lost on the Russians in Russia that genocide can't be rationalized. If history is any guide, such loss (or at least suppression) of humanity will lead to catastrophic consequences to Russia and its people.

>ukrainian army continued the war calling it "anti-terrorist operation". Don't you see the similarity of the situation?

absolutely not. The similarity would be if Ukraine moved tanks on Moscow and bombed the sh^t out of Russia. They didn't even though their side also got shelled by the separatists.

> But you must understand too: a lot of defensive strikes made by Azov and AFU are made from civilian structures.

yea. Defenders of Stalingrad were guilty of the destruction of Stalingrad. That is Nazi logic. And it isn't the only time your post displayed it (which is naturally because Russian propaganda what you repeat is mostly nazism these days). Like this too :

>We want different government to Ukraine, the government that will agree to admit Crimea as a Russia and DPR and LPR states and not join NATO neither de jure nor de facto.

Just like Nazi wanted in their days - the USSR government without Bolsheviks and Jews which would suit more the vision of Great Germany the same way like Putin today wants to change Ukraine for his vision of Great Russia. Details change while the core nature of nazism stays the same.

>We don't want to absorb the culture

just drive millions of people out of their land, and the rest either killed for resistance or must accept the Russian Order as Putin declared. Just like Nazi planned for Slavic people in USSR.
