Largely those style names do exist in the current product names. Since Intel styled the Core i-series 3, 5, and 7 (and the later 9) over 12 years ago, AMD is following their lead with Ryzen 3, 5, 7, and 9.

The first digit is the generation and then the second digit and suffix letter designate additional features. So a Ryzen 7 5700X is a 5th gen Ryzen 7 meaning it has 8 cores. It is a step down in price and performance to a 5800X and also has no Graphics capabilities (those have a G suffix). Intel uses different letter suffixes such as the Core i7 12700KF being a 12th generation Core i7 with overclocking features (K) and no graphics (F).

It is far worst with GPUs. Certainly an industry wide naming convention reset would be nice but everyone is not going to cooperate like that.

It does take a minute to read up on but at least Intel has *mostly* followed this naming convention for 12 product generations so far.
Show HN: Streamline Your Funnel Analytics with Dynamic UTM Tags and JavaScript
I built a JavaScript snippet for your website to solve the problem below.

While UTMs are ubiquitous in analytics, the best practice requires constant effort to ensure external links are tagged. The reality is that only a few links contain UTM tags. Links that do have UTMs are often only digital marketing campaigns, generated through manual tagging with the help of a campaign tracking URL builder. This creates a challenge when you want to create standard reports to compare the performance across all marketing channels. This is even more important when your analytics stack extends beyond the Google ecosystem.

I haven't seen any recent studies/reports about building in small markets vs large markets. I suspect the small markets end up even worse off with such deals. The stadiums are massively expensive, regardless of location, and the smaller cities would be less able to absorb/offset the impacts of those costs.

Maybe not apples to apples, but DC's annual operating budget is ~$17b vs Columbus's annual budget of $1b. This despite DC having a smaller population (~700k vs ~900k).

I am a little surprised to see no one question the author's description or assumption of "Gen Z".

As someone presumably from Gen Z, I find both interfaces either bad or terrible. The partiful design is outright tacky and looks terrible (nothing homogeneous, questionable design choices etc) but Filteroff has so much whitespace it feels like it was designed by soulless corps at Uber or Facebook who just studied from Pinterest.

And as a GenZ who's immersed in tech (news), the fact that this is the first time I'm hearing of Gen Z design definitely raised my eyebrows.
Haha, no yeah, that's a very jargony sentence indeed.

Phase space is jargon for the set of all allowed configurations of a system. In the simplest case, an ideal gas of n spherical atoms, each atom is specified by 3 independent numbers for position and 3 for momentum, so you need 6 n numbers total to specify the whole configuration... That is the phase space. This phase space is only partly bounded, it is bounded in position (V^n where V is the volume each particle can occupy) but not in momentum (the temperature can always go higher). Because each of these numbers can vary independently from each other, they are called “independent degrees of freedom.”

Now, point vortices are an abstract mathematical limit of physical vortices as they get really small. Generally we take these mathematical limits because it's much easier to work with and we are lazy. The article is saying that Onsager chose to explain his theory with point vortices because you can't give them arbitrarily high momentums, in fact their positions have to be tied up with where they are going, so that they are not independent anymore like they were with the gas.

So Onsager knew that if he chose this system then the boundary on volume (well, area, the vortices live in 2D) would become a boundary on momentum space and then you couldn't dump infinite energy into the system. And this is important because it means that when you add more energy, the number of allowed configurations with that energy eventually shrinks. This is the negativity of negative temperature, increase something and something else decreases. The thing that is decreasing, a volume in phase space, is also called the entropy. Increase energy, and entropy decreases... most normal systems work the opposite way, entropy increases.

As systems share things to maximize total entropy, this overcharged vortex system is going to share energy with any normal system at any temperature, because that normal system will increase its entropy with energy coming into it, and the overcharged vortex system will gain entropy when it loses energy. So it is hotter than any other thing in the world.

(I am erasing the jargon word “canonical” from this explanation... It just refers to a particular procedure we use to define momentum coordinates based on your position coordinates. When you are not dealing with a point particle with defined mass in a flat space, you have to make these sorts of choices.)
> autotools is great

I assume you are joking. Autotools is a slow-as-molasses system (running autoreconf could take half of your build's wall time!) designed for 1980s unix wars (with support for anything not resembling 1980s unix C programs being an awkward bolt-on), complete with an unusually hostile syntax and multiple levels of inefficient interpreters, all optimized to encourage cargo-cult copy-paste programming. It was barely tolerable at the turn of the century, when everyone used it for lack of a good alternative. For a while, its one saving grace was decent support for cross-compiling. But using it for a new project today is insane.

IMO, nothing.

NFTs are already centralized and primarily used as scams. If your non-scam NFT is blocked by OpenSea, it might as well not exist for the purposes of selling and re-selling.

Where NFTs are not used for scams, they're being implemented in a proprietary blockchain and used as a method of extracting more money from customers with no new benefits (it's not like customers can re-sell their NFTs; see: proprietary blockchain).

The only thing I potentially see as valuable from web3 is cryptographic customer identification - but this is something we've had for years (client certs), but which never took off. I don't see how "web3" will change that.

Your point about cash flow is absolutely why this happens. I think that a lot of people operate on monthly budgets, not total cost.

It's not really about the total price paid, it's about whether the item is affordable on a monthly basis.

I agree with your philosophy where a lot of people are way too willing to let easy financing change their budget. I also assume that free financing would inflate prices (e.g.: cars and homes).

Would the iPhone and other flagship phones cost $700-1000 if financing wasn't so common? I don't think so, personally.

The other aspect of this is that, mathematically, $200 paid now is objectively worth more than $200 paid over time thanks to the time value of money. [1]

Let's say we're at a "normal" 2% rate of inflation. If I buy a $30,000 car today with 0% financing over 6 years, by the time I hit year 6 my monthly payment is representing a 12% lower value (inflation compounded yearly) than when I started.

Technically, even if you have $1000 in cash to buy your new iPhone, you "should" just finance it and invest/save/use the rest elsewhere.

MongoDB vs. Apache Cassandra – Performance and Scalability Benchmarks

I agree about the comments here often being the most interesting part.

But I think that the best way to start the conversation is usually with a well-written article.

If there would only be a title and no article, I'm pretty sure that I would find the comments to be less interesting.

But maybe I'm wrong, and since my argument is based on the original article being well-written, maybe it isn't true for most posts.

But I still think that I would rather try to find the posts with good articles, and just ignore the rest, and hopefully, that is what the ranking system does (at least help with).

> Nix is like a kind of Docker from an alternative universe.

Nix is often compared to Docker, but Docker is essentially just a way to run programs (in a sandbox). Saying "I'll build it with Docker" says how you're going to run it, but not what you're going to run. Unfortunately, the "what" usually turns out to be a shell script, which runs one package manager to fetch another package manager, downloads a bunch of files from some random URLs, etc.

Nix is all about keeping careful track of the dependencies between things, such that all the fetching has been done by the time our scripts start (access to the network, and any paths outside the build sandbox, is disabled by default).

Also, the way Docker tends to be used involves downloading an entire Linux distro, just to run those scripts. Nix does the opposite: scripts only have access to precisely what they've asked for.
Kuwait may be a far better comparison.

That looks so cool (but I didn’t install it). I regret after 30 years using Emacs that I have mostly moved in to VSCode. I toy with going back to Emacs but I have become addicted to tools like GitHub Copilot that saves me so much time that I can’t imagine not having it always running. Eventually Copilot support will come to Emacs.

Someone else here said that Osm.el is very performant. At its best, Emacs is like a Smalltalk environment where you can happily do all of your work in one environment.

Anyway, I have bookmarked Osm.el and if Copilot becomes available for Emacs I really look forward to spending a day installing both at once.
I think y’all are conflating two completely different things.

There are “fun” sites where proper UX, information hierarchy, and general good design patterns take a backseat to some wild design (band websites for example).

Then there are sites that focus on productivity which should have all the elements of good design. Craigslist is from the 90s, yet it doesn’t have sparkles and random shit scattered across the page.

Everyone is reminiscing about the wild designs of the past. How many of those sites you visited were actual productivity focused sites vs now? You can’t compare Geocities to Jira…

Arguably, NATO airstrikes and paratroopers win, but if they haven't acted yet, they're not going to act, and what's more likely is the western countries are more likely to keep the conflict drawn out, as the invasion is going to go on anyway, so they might as well use it for their domestic news cycle narratives. Russia is tolerating the resistance because it doesn't cost very much and it draws out volunteers now who would be more difficult to manage as a long term insurgency under a new government.

The only reason anyone in the west without family there cares about Ukraine is because it's far. This war is a circus. It is an issue between Russia and Ukraine, and while everyone likes something to be concerned about, it's wasted, and worse, a distraction from borderline existential domestic policy issues.

> This is incorrect; any language to which the pumping lemma for regular languages applies is a regular language

No. The wikipedia page has an example of a pumpable but non-regular language. You just need to take the union of a pumpable language and a non-regular language in a way that you can pump elements of the second into elements of the first. The Wikipedia example is a little more formal, but we can do something like this.

Consider, over the binary alphabet,

L1 = {s : 00 or 11 is a (consecutive) substring of s}

L2 = {(01)^n : n represents a Turing machine that halts on the empty tape}

and L = L1 union L2. Identifying elements of L2 is "difficult" (this is where I'm not being formal, but clearly this is beyond the power of regular languages) and the elements of the two languages are disjoint (so I'm not playing some tricks with my language secretly being Σ*).

Take the pumping length p = 3. There are only eight possibilities for the first three characters: 000,001,010,011 and their bitwise complements. In the first two cases pump on the last character as any string starting 00 is in the language L. In the third case pump on the middle character; either we get repeated 1s or the zeroes coalesce (note that this is exactly where we collapse L2 into L1 by pumping it). In the last case, pump on the first character; the repeated 1s ensure the final string is in L. For the complements just complement my constants.

So any string s in L can be pumped. But it's clear that no DFA is going to recognize L2, a disjoint language from L1. I use the halting problem for L2 as a "hard problem" but you can just choose an arbitrary other language L2 = {(01)^n : n encodes an element of L*, where L* is not regular}.

Is it possible for you to construct a scenario where torture is morally acceptable?

You do still need a very strong structure to resist outward pressure. It's isn't steam pressure, it's magnetic pressure, from JxB forces in the magnets. For ARC, the stainless steel supports for the magnets weigh 5300 tonnes, and comprise 3/4 of the mass of the entire reactor. The energy stored in that magnetic field is (I think) larger than would be stored in the steam of a PWR of the same thermal power output.

The building housing an ARC will be very large. The reactor itself is 20 meters tall, and the entire top half of it has to be lifted off and moved aside when changing out the vacuum vessel. All that lifting and moving will have to be done remotely because of radiation from the activated vacuum vessel, which then will need yet another shielded area where it can be broken down for disposal and the debris from that cleaned up or at least contained.
