I mean Go has map right?

"I need a priority queue for X" isn't generic, and "I need a priority queue for Y" isn't generic either. But well if you're doing it a lot, would be nice to not just reproduce the same bugs over and over again, yeah?

Everyone's worried about Go turning into Java and I can't speak too much to the utility (I have written maybe 50 pages of go in my life) but anyone who uses Python's standard lib can point you to 10 different things that are nice to have bug-free versions of and that "just work" thanks to Python's "generics".
Why can't you just do something like this:

Here in Germany we have more thorough driver education than in the US. There still are lots of dangerous idiots on the roads. It's much too hard to lose your license once you have it.
That's about the only valid use case, for people whose government doesn't practice good management.

The question is, is that a good solution for them? And what about us? It seems like a foreign leader could be incentivized to pay off a developed country's representatives, thus creating the conditions where crypto becomes useful for populations where inflation is going through the roof. Solving that problem with something isn't worth much if that something also contributes to the growth of the problem.

As Homer Simpson once said, "to alcohol, the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems." The same could be said of crypto.
End of comment begs the question if you know what you're complaining about.

People that commit these crimes "suggested" by undercover typically aren't the sharpest tool in the box. For LEOs to take advantage of that is reprehensible.

One of LEOs responsibilities shouldn't be to see how many crimes they can get others to commit on their behest. It should be to catch those that commit crimes. We don't need more crime because LEO encourages it. That's just bassakwards logic.

It used to be that school start time went by the age of the student. So, high school kids started first, elementary school kids started last. Based on studies showing that isn't ideal, Massachusetts schools have started changing that around. So, grades 3 - 5 start earliest now at 7:30, which means getting up around ~6:30 to eat, dress, pack, etc. and get to the bus stop for a 7:10 pick-up. Standard time doesn't make it all sunny all morning, but it gradually rises as we're getting ready. It's really dismal when DST is still in effect. I think geographically, the northeast US should be in the Atlantic timezone, too, so that doesn't really help matters.
Ok well in that case we'll choose the simpler of the two which is just stop changing the clocks.
In iOS, certain apps can register for certain URL domains and protocols to open the app instead. Maybe Android has something similar and you could leverage that in an app that implements something similar.
Never heard of this before. It looks interesting.

A quick recipe search online showed it being mixed with sugar and milk and stuff, but I guess that's just an adjustment for western palates?
I really don't get what you're saying. Move the clock 4 hours forward and you favor some people; Move it backwards and you favor others. You literally cannot make everyone live in their "perfect sleep cycle." If you feel sleepy "at 2am" this changes nothing for you.

In Norway in December people wake up "in the middle of the night" because sunrise is at 10am: Humans can adjust easily to this stuff, it's just that we like to sleep "late" (as defined by the clock)
I find this to be a very cool NURBS-based CAD project, can't wait to play with it more. From what I can see it borrows a lot of concepts from solid modeling CAD tools like Solidworks, but also has UX similarities to other common surface modeling tools like Blender. Here is a video of how it works:

They already delivered Starlink and it's working in Ukraine. They're making improvements to mitigate jamming but to imply they didn't "deliver" is absurd. Regarding similar projects, there are more success stories (e.g. Tonga) than failures but they're ignored since they don't fit into a simple narrative.

Yeah I wonder why RDP on Windows is just so efficient. It is another block pusher as far as I understand. But it performs so well.

I've even used it over a 9600 baud dialup connection (a long time ago from a 2G mobile that didn't have GPRS) and it was usable to my suprise.

Technically, we know exactly what we have to do to GPT-3 to give it a chance to learn how to rhyme: get rid of BPES and just use raw UTF-8 (or even just ASCII) as the encoding. Enlarge the model a bit, as necessary.

At least that's what I am getting from Gwern's write-up. I might have misunderstood Gwern, or Gwern might be wrong, of course.
I also experimented a lot with remote desktop solutions.

# For client, I use:

- Remmina - https://remmina.org/

- Apache Guacamole (HTML5, browser based) - https://guacamole.apache.org/

# For server on Linux I use:

- X11: xrdp - for a KDE guide, see https://pilabor.com/blog/2021/05/remote-desktop-with-xrdp-an...

- Wayland / GNOME: Already integrated (alpha state, some caveats) - for a guide, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/-/snippets/1778 (read the comments first, there is some good additional info and I think someone has crafted a script)

# Further notes:

- RDP Server on Linux is very fiddly to get working reliable, while on X11 systems I found xrdp pretty straight forward - this link was pretty helpful: http://c-nergy.be/blog/?cat=79

- On modern GNOME systems the RDP server is already integrated, but there is a lot of missing stuff and I did not find a solution for a working RDP after reboot

- Remmina as RDP client is good, but it takes some fiddling, if you are using HiDPI

- Guacamole is not as good, but I use it as backup, which works in the browser

I agree completely with both parts of the second half of your post, and I think the parent commenter above yours does as well.

The first half, however, is neither kind, nor thoughtful. It's a direct attack on someone, rather than engaging in mutual learning on the subject at hand.
It's less that it gained a new feature, and more (the fear at least) that it made a change for the worse.

Avoiding updating to a new version of OSX that stabs you in the face is a reasonable thing to do, despite it being a new feature.
Krdc doesn't scale RDP connections strange enough. So I can't zoom a 1920x1080 remote to my 4k screen :(

Very weird because it can do it just fine when it's using the VNC protocol. Never understood why the same app can't do it when it's RDP.

Other than this it's great (like most apps from the KDE world) but I really need the scaling. 1:1 scaling is just too small on 4k 24". I really need to zoom it in.

PS I use it on FreeBSD, never tried it on Linux so perhaps that's the reason but I doubt it.

> But what I gathered is that what matters most for healthy sleep is not going to bed early, but rather to sleep longer in the morning and wake up with the sun. So if we move to permanent DST this behavior of staying up late might become more of a problem because of the early rising.

Permanent DST is the one where the sun rises later, which would mean easier to get more sleep rather than being woken up because the sun is rising too early.

Essentially anything that happens at inference time also happens at training time.

Because training is largely running inference, and then correcting any mistakes. Over and over again.

(I say largely, because inference also does stuff like sample top-k completions etc.)

Carfax has effectively marketed itself as a single source of truth for vehicle history. However, Carfax reports may have omissions and errors, especially as vehicles age out of the manufacturer's warranty. It's best when used to inform and supplement other forms of research, such as a pre-purchase inspection or review of paper records.
That was one of the goals and virtues of Go imo; the language was nerfed. It made the hard things easy, and prevented the really hard things from being implemented in silly ways.
What is the difference between crowdfunding and preorders? I think it would be a mistake not to crowdfund or use preorders unless you have significant venture backing and a sticky, viral consumer product where you can somewhat accurately forecast demand, or you anticipate selling out at high margins.

Don't waste your money building a product that potentially no one wants. Your crowdfunders are often the best feedback loops you'll get as a hardware startup.
The Russian Who Protested the War on Live-TV Refused to Retract Her Statement
That Washingtonian story was a big nothing.

In December 1973, supposedly 80% of Americans favored DST through the winter, but this fell by fully half to 40% only three months later — during the DARKEST three months of the year? How does that make any sense? Americans then would rather that darkness begin at 5, BEFORE they can drive home?

Nonsense. Any statistic that counterintuitive bears much fuller explanation. It reeks of manipulation, such as a PR campaign by some social influencer of the day claiming to “protect our helpless little children brought to death's door by a wicked law obviously invented by Communists”.

However, if a greater context behind the story HAD been provided, it's likely there woyld be no story — just as there WAS no threat to schoolchildren. (Nor would there be any today, since nobody walks to school anymore.)

Now THIS is news I can’t use.

Audio/video calling APIs like Agora are too expensive for B2C software
Alright, you win: this answer is fantastic. This is a far, far better way to think about what limits scalability than simple things like pages served per millisecond. I never did expect to find ready answers that will guide me to making the universally scalable app, but now I see the problem can be reduced even further into niche sorts of scaling which, while solvable with hardware tricks, do their very best to escape generalization.
> Your body's internal clock is actually 24 hours 11 minutes long on average

Wasn't that debunked? Just look at what happened to people who slept in a cave for a few days, they came out of it having no idea of how long they were in there, even if they were somehow conditioned by others who guessed their own time. If the body had an internal clock, their estimation would not be off by 17 days out of 40. That's some serious mismatch.

I always found it insane when the feature that allowed you to export songs from Rock Band 1 to 2 and then 2 to 3 required Harmonix to get new licenses. Was very annoying losing songs because of license bullshit.
The US does not have an official language. We just default to English. There are bilingual schools, especially in bigger cities. It's typically conservatives who don't want bilingualism. Within major immigrant hubs, bilingualism and code-switching are very common, especially in multigenerational households. And most modern immigrants come to America willingly, seeking a better quality of life. Among the forced assimilations (Native Americans, Blacks), yeah, they lost a lot of culture.

Many other countries are multilingual and to some degree multicultural. Few are as homogenous as East Asian countries.

In the article they said

> I had a hard time thinking strategically about product. I was too busy supporting the entire organization on all things related to the product.

so that's a pretty clear indication of what was missing. Instead of being able to recognize broad industry trends and come up with broad product evolutions that meet those needs, this person is stuck answering quibbles about particular customers or particular implementations.
> How will the intended rot resistance effect fungal biodiversity in forests where these trees grow? Does it last 1 year, 10 years, or 100? How long will a forest of dry twigs be able to avoid a fire (and release all of its carbon regardless)?

Given the parallel efforts being made for bioengineered mycoremediation (which is far more likely to "escape"), I suspect that the rot-resistance effect will be fairly temporary, and the long term net effect will just be enhanced long-term biosequestration of metals in the soil that will benefit the ecosystem.

It would be pretty important not to engineer trees that are significant food sources for anything too high up the food chain, or at least somehow ensure that the metal accumulation only happens in the relatively inedible parts (like wood), but otherwise at first glance this seems a viable stopgap to damp the carbon release feedback loops that are staring us in the face.

I'm wondering if rot resistance (perhaps of other sorts than metal accumulation) can be useful in other contexts.

For example, here in New Mexico we're experiencing a decimation of the piñon pine trees that provide pine nuts (commercially) and ecological niches for a variety of birds. The warmer winters aren't killing off the bark beetles as they used to so the beetles are killing off the trees, especially when they're stressed from drought, and the alternatives seem to be somehow making the trees less appetizing to the beetles, introducing something to eat the beetles, or else just migrating the forests north into Colorado.

The article is poignant and worth reading.

This young man chose to die for his beliefs.

“The self-immolation of young Tibetans like Tsewang Norbu, who seems to have it all, lays bare China’s claim that the spate of self-immolations that have engulfed the Tibetan plateau since 2009 is triggered by psychological and livelihood issues.

China continues to hatch strategies to win the hearts and minds of the new generation of Tibetans in its Sinicization project, but the self-immolation protests by young Tibetans like Yonten and Tsewang Norbu expose how China’s ill-intent strategies in Tibet is deeply hurting young Tibetans.

To prevent self-immolations and save lives, TCHRD calls on China to halt its Sinicization programs and uphold the human rights of Tibetans to protect and promote their culture and language, and freely exercise basic freedoms including freedom of expression and freedom to practice one’s religion or belief.”
I agree, except it was meant to be a tounge-in-cheek response rather than a blatant FU. I was hoping the specific phrasing would be identifiable as such. Clearly I fell victim to the assuming part.

However, phrases like left cost lib are pretty much equally an attack on someone as well. Not saying tit-for-tat is the level of discourse, but I was hoping to make it laughable with the retort rather than escalate. Mission NOT accomplished. Got it.
No one who has access to FSD Beta, is in any shape or form mistaken, to think that Tesla is under any obligation to keep providing the feature whether the driver has a safety score of 100 or not. Tesla clearly states in their terms, before you can turn FSD Beta on, that they reserve the right to take it away at any time for any reason and rightly so.

Our great HN community here throws rocks at Tesla and FSD Beta any chance they get. Why in the world would Tesla allow someone whom they employ, to generate bad press while they're still heavily developing a tech. Isn't FSD Beta already not enough negatively covered?

As for firing the employee, WTF Tesla?
Parametric polymorphism is great and undervalued by most languages, but ad hoc polymorphism is also valuable at times, mainly when the polymorphic function represents the same abstract operation on distinct types.

I'm curious why you are referring to 'Kinect'. And because I also agree that the website needs a lot of work to make it more obvious of what the software can actually do, I was wondering if you could answer me this:

Ah yes, the "let's kill people to get their organs" argument, which just seems so reasonable...

Ask HN: Who cares about certifications?
I've got a few associate level aws certifications recently and started interviewing again. I though the certifications would be a game changer but I pretty much had to casually drop that information on interviews and suffocate the pain of having no big reactions to it.

It's was very underwhelming, and I'd like to know more about people who are certified, what did it change in your life? Were you able to leverage that to a better salary, job, contracts, etc?

I've asked a similar question on a kubernetes subreddit and I've got a lot of interesting point of views. Here's the link if you're curious:
