Well, actually, none of that is true and it's the division of time and systemization of behaviors around those divisions which certain social functions are, generally, arbitrarily centered around that will ultimately determine outcomes. Which is why there are proposals to do things like starting high schoolers later or moving to a 4 day workweek, which was proposed on the order of a century ago alongside drastic declines in labor hours necessary to produce ends meet. Instead we've got digitized time locks that track to the second and the maintenance of the status quo of a bygone era, and children shored up in living graves to make their dues in time far removed from agency.

Time is perhaps one of the most egregious facilitators of harm in the human domain. Both in manifest physical harm and as the root of a gamut of genuinely harmful behaviors without a real justifying rationale to back it. Haste makes waste. Rush drug trials and find out that thalidomide causes birth defects, that PFAs can't be ejected from the body, that tetraethyl lead is actually harmful... Rush to work and get in a car accident, rush the work and destroy the product... Rush the revolution and forget the human costs...Rush through life to get to the end... All so the trains can run on time.

Anyways, the point is that we can do better — we can be more humane. You could set the clock to whatever hour you please and in a decent society you'd be given free agency over your time or due compensation for the sacrifice of it.
There's numerous direct primary sources who were alive at least until the 1990s about what life was like in Tibet. It is only because this is such a politically contentious issue that the wikipedia page is "both sides"-ing it.

The only source they have in that article that disagrees that amputation and gouging of the eyes was a routine punishment was a literal Nazi.

The overwhelming weight of evidence, even in that wiki article, is towards Tibet having a feudal society with routine amputation/gouging as punishment.

Not every application needs to have 99.9999999% uptime. There is plenty of honest to goodness productive output coming out of "shit" codebases that just tackled one use-case after another, never giving a care about some weirdo dumping in a bunch of unicode.

I often hear "car" used as a synonym with "automobile". And dictionaries seem to agree with that. However, I do not call my pickup truck a car, but I do have another car which I call a car.

A CPU (generally) uses one powerful core, sequentially going through a large chunk of data, while a GPU has a large number of relatively weak cores (say, hundreds) operating in parallel on small chunks of data. For instance, if you wanted to do something with every pixel on the screen (~2 million), with a CPU, you would step through each pixel in a loop, one by one. With a GPU, you would run a small program (usually called a shader for historical reasons) for each pixel in parallel on all of its cores. Hopefully that helps.

I go for more like 8 years, because I like some overlap so I'm not stuck without a system.

Generally I'd buy midrange parts, from well known vendors, and pay a bit extra for SSD, ram, etc. Avoid anything with a small muffin fan (primarily chipsets these days), get a quality case, 140mm or bigger fans, quality power supply (a 5 year warranty is a good start). My current system is from 2015 and was a Xeon E3-1230 v5, 32GB ECC ram, GTX 1070, and a M.2 NVMe. The E3-1230 was cheaper with ECC then the similar i7 was without and just slightly slower (3.2 vs 3.4 GHz). Had no problems so far, and I'm just starting to look at a replacement. Looking closely at the expectations for Zen 4 CPUs and the current Alder Lake (or follow on ). I'm definitely sold on DDR5, especially since with a 2 dimm system (128 bits wide) you get 4 channels instead of 2 with DDR4. Should be that much better at not stalling your cores on cache misses.

If I bought today it would be tough decision between the AMD 5700x (8c/16T with a 65 watt TDP) vs the similar Intel Alder Lake. I do think AMD has the edge for systems that are low power and Intel the advantage for high power. Personally I'd rather have quiet, cool, and reliable instead of an extra bit of performance that nobody will care about in a few years. I'd consider a Apple M1 mini ... if it had the M1 pro or Max. Don't think the studio is quite worth it, but I am chipping in few $ a month to Marcan for a linux port.

> Asking for a civilian to be tried for treason by a military tribunal for saying... the same things that a government official has said, but in a way that makes the government look bad, is the same thing as abandoning the rule of law.z

But that's not disappearing. Assuming the tribunal found him guilty and gave him X punishment everybody would know (Obviously assuming the tribunal found him not guilty then he wouldn't be punished anyways).

Disappearing would be when your neighbor that always lets his goats chew all of your grass tells the cia that you're a terrorist so they come (and nobody else knows where you went) and get in the middle of the night so you won't keep chasing his goats away.

ABS respects your brake, it just does it by apply counterintutive high-speed anti-brake pumping. It'd be like saying power steering doesn't respect your steering.
Updates are also not generally delivered via cellular, unless they're classified as critical.

Tesla owns the entire stack. They choose when to update, it just happens to be easier and more pleasant to give people the choice. Given that you can trigger the update via the mobile app, there is clearly support for remote updates. And if you as an owner can do it, then Tesla certainly can, even if they choose not to.
Is that by policy or by technology? If it's a confirmation button on a screen, I'm betting it's only policy that stops them from updating the software without permission.
A key trade-off is IPC per thread vs area. The CPU needs a high IPC per thread but by achieving this, the area goes disproportionately up and IPC / mm^2 goes down.

The GPU does not need high single-thread performance so it has lots of simpler and smaller cores, and as a result the total IPC goes way up.

And then of course the GPU has dedicated hardware for operations like rasterization and texture interpolation which the CPU lacks. On the other hand, the CPU needs to run an OS so each core has support for virtual memory, interrupts and other types of instructions that are either not needed on the GPU or at least do not need to be supported by each one of the little cores and are handled in a more global manner, making these cores even smaller.
It mostly solves the problem of needless clock switch overs twice a year. Quite orthogonal to most software.
Wow, a website that gives HN a run for its money on "how small can we make a font?" type of styling. Although your linked site actually has style. <ducks>

Edit: otherwise, yes, this is kind of the style I was thinking. However, I was hoping less of a "religious" difference and more of an enlightened "idiots did that?" kind of thing.

How I hate that article. Poor John D. Anderson will forever be associated with this ridiculous claim that no one knows why aircraft fly. Also note, that he does not say that at all:

“What Anderson said, however, is that there is actually no agreement on what generates the aerodynamic force known as lift. “There is no simple one-liner answer to this,” he told the Times.

Not only does he not say that no one understands lift, he also doesn’t say that there is no agreement. What he says is that there is no simple answer. That means something completely differently.

Edit: there are two fundamental ways to describe lift: as the resulting force from integrating pressure over the surface of the wing (here discussed in a distorted way as ‘Bernoulli’), and a control volume way of Newton’s 3rd axiom, where air is pushed downwards by the wing and the wing in turn experienced a force in the opposite direction.

There is no mystery. Both views are equivalent. What is hard is to predict the exact force, as one would have to predict the flow field around the wing.

Just because you responded three times does not make you right. The ability to trigger an update from your phone is possible, Tesla can and does remotely start and stop updates in case of an issue downloading, and either way they own the stack all up and can change any behavior at any time.

DST attempts to go by the sun. It attempts to make some fixed morning time follow sunrise. It just does it in an extremely coarse way.
That does not compute. How can you be committed to work and not care who’s leading the company?
It seems like a good way to get yourself hurt. I would call the police if I caught someone doing it to my truck, but others might not.
The word "can" is doing a lot of work here. Real-world economics is almost infinitely more complex than this sort of simplistic analysis.

Just as one example: housing prices often rise in response to a process frequently referred to as "gentrification" (often with a somewhat disparaging tone, to put it mildly). But that process tends to start when people with very little income to spend on housing move into low cost of living neighborhoods and subtly shift their demographics and nature. So is gentrification a process driven by the "poor" (the initial influx of new tenants) or by the "rich" (developers who can carry out significant remodelling and/or new construction) ? The answer is clearly both, yet even that doesn't really cover the whole mechanism. For a start, for gentrification to become significant in driving up housing costs, existing owners need to sell. These are often neither the newcomers nor the developers. Gentrification also requires a modest but distinct influx of businesses into an area, which in turn requires businesses to either start or expand.

I'm citing this as just one single example of where bullshit simplifications drawn from "basic" economics fail to describe the real world. There are so, so many more.
Awesome library and a very good README.

The question is not only “must I ever wake up before sunrise?” but also “for how long must I wake up before sunrise?”

I grew up in a permanent DST north of 60° and there is always gonna be a time when most people are up and about an hour or more before sunrise. However it doesn’t have to such a large part of the winter. This period could be shortened by a few weeks if the government decided to move back to standard (which incidentally most people support—along with most public health experts—but the government doesn’t).

uh huh... And how many synonyms for "three" do you know of? I didn't say I owned three "automobiles" either.

The responder was apparently dazed, and/or annoyed by owning more than two of something "(???)", none of which was the point.

The point is that - I am one that this article would have called out to be vandalized, but for no good reason. So I can identify as to the arbitrariness of fixating on a single thing (e.g. "SUVs"). I don't care what you drive, how big it is, how many of them you have, etc. and nor should any of you. I care about the environment, and I'm a better steward of it than most. If you want to care about carbon footprint, then fine, protest those who are wasteful, but don't go letting the air out of some poor soccer mom's rav4s that she might drive 50 miles a week because it will save the earth.
> This shows that you don't own a Tesla, it owns you

No, it shows that beta software is issued under a license. No one "owns" FSD beta. You apply and get granted access. It's not the car, it's not even the car's native software suite. It's a test version of software Tesla is offering on different terms.

(It's also pretty amazing, fwiw.)

It was the tactic of the British into Northern Ireland, interestingly enough. I suppose it's also the story of colonists coming into the Americas as well as parts of Africa, mainly South Africa.

> - OP was dishonest by listing only a few countries that haven't signed on

I don’t think you know the definition of dishonest. One final time I list a number of countries that aren’t signatories to the Rome Statute, I never stated or implied that was an exhaustive list.

>OP argument was "everyone else is doing it", which is not very convincing

That is dishonest because that was not my argument and obviously inconsistent with the fact that I gave a list of countries that “were not doing it”.

Lastly your argument fails in light of every other international body the US is a part of, every treaty the US is a part of, and every international law the US is subject to…the irony is that is my argument. Moreover, your argument is “the ICC is no different than the UN or other international bodies” and the US isn’t part of the ICC. because “powerful countries won’t play nice”. If you don’t see where your logic breaks down, try to answer why the US is a member to all the other international bodies you claim are “no different” than the ICC, and the US is part of those other bodies but not the ICC.

It has been some time but I think it's from "Hells Angels' I learned Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, participated in MKUltra while working as a student at Menlo Park Veteran's Hospital and the character Chief was inspired by his own hallucinations.

Hunter S. Thompson partied with the Hells Angels at Ken Kesey's house with the Merry Pranksters. There's a lot to unpack there.

Start job flipping. $110k isn't enough for your job title in NYC. You should be earning $200k or so at a minimum. Your current employer is probably taking advantage of your loyalty. Don't bother trying to negotiate salary, they might flip you another $15k or so to retain you but they won't bump you up to what you can get elsewhere.
Yes, actually. According to current FTC rules, canceling a subscription has to be as easy or easier than signing up for it. Lina Khan is great, and a shining example of why votes matter and both parties aren't the same.
There is no NDA required for FSD beta access. Certainly I never signed one. What would you like to know?
Also, more money in the hands of the elite class(es) does not inevitably drive prices of anything other than the few goods & services for which prices are actively negotiated. The fact that your rich clientele have more money does not, in and of itself, require you to raise your prices. That's a choice you make, which is dependent upon but also independent of their disposable wealth.
> Employee owned companies are incredibly stable and unlikely to be acquired because the employees know they will be disposable as soon as they are acquired.

how does this work? If the employees are the ones who own equity, the acquirer would need to pay to purchase those equity and thus, an employees cannot be disposed until they no longer own any equity. Or they can choose to not be acquired, or raise the price of acquisition to be high enough that they get FU money.
Ask HN: Latest Covid Avoidance Recommendations?
I have managed to keep a low profile since the start of COVID and have avoided it to date with the usual methods of mask, distancing, vaccine, etc.

I have an event coming up where these methods won't be possible. I won't be able to wear a mask and it is indoors so will be hard to distance.

I'm OK with that, but curious if anyone has any hacky recommendations of methods to reduce risk in lieu of the typical methods? Preferably low risk high reward type methods.

As an example I am considering an over the counter Azelastine nasal spray.

Chances are that I won't use any of the recommendations but it will be interesting to hear what everyone says.
Of course Starlink is working on the firmware. Musk works on a lot of things, like minisubs to rescue children. But it's unclear they will deliver, because (a) it's a hard problem and (b) Musk has an issue with deadlines, and seems particularly bad at actions that need immediate handling.
The two problems are almost exactly the same if you just use a time frame that does not change (permanent daylight savings, or never daylight savings)

If you read the book, you will see that Coppola really didn't have to do a lot of adapting for the movie. It's pretty much all there.

My problem with The Godfather is that it makes Italian gangsters look like some chess-playing intellectuals, when in reality they were the crazy low-lifes that you see in Goodfellas.
Wouldn't it depend on longitude too? Stepping across a time zone border would be the same as switching between DST and ST.
Sure, but it's the standard way to use install_name_tool on macOS to do precisely what you described. The original commenter apparently is not aware of this.
It's usually against the law to take plants from places like national parks. Sometimes there's more leeway in taking things from national forests but it's probably a bad idea unless you have permission. Poaching succulent propagations is a big issue in some parks so rangers actively look for it.
I'm a night owl as well but I don't care if it's light or dark out when I get up but driving home in darkness and waking up in darkness is depressing as hell. I like a little sunlight after work to do things, mow the lawn, do some errands, take a walk, etc.

This line of reasoning has no limiting principle.

Anything beyond anyone's personal stance on climate would become fair game for vigilante harassment.
It's not lock-free, it's wait-free and therein lies the problem. The reader thread(s) are not locked out - they are free to continue running, endlessly looping waiting for the moment when they can consistently read the pseudo-atomic data. That's quite different behavior than if they used a lock, which they would find already held, and they would sleep.
DST is more popular as a "permanent" option for most people. Most people prefer that daylight after work is over.
How would modern Tibetans making their own choices work? They're majority Han Chinese now so are you proposing some kind of apartheid or ethnostate, or Han dominated democracy?

Erlang doesn't have priorities natively, does it? As far as I am aware, there is a standard pattern to do it, like this:

receive
{high_p, Message} ->
process_high(Message)
after 0 ->
receive
{high_p, Message} ->
process_high(Message);
{low_p, Message} ->
process_low(Message)
end
end

The Go equivalent can be done with different channels for priorities and similarly nested selects, as I am sure you are aware.
DST makes it more disruptive in the evening, but less disruptive in the morning.

But a timezone system with a fixed dawn isn't even being proposed so that doesn't seem to be one of the options you mentioned as being preferred. That does sound nice but that doesn't seem like anything similar to any of the things being mentioned or suggested.
