There was the line about Netflix seeing the writing in the wall about needing to produce their own content because everyone was going to make their own steaming service. "We need to become HBO before HBO becomes us."

What are these r registers for AArch64? Author hasn't likely bothered to run any of the examples through an actual 64-bit ARM assembler. Dubious.
In comma.ai the solution is to just not run into things / go around things how a human would do and learn to peioritize what things to go around and where to be extra careful.

The important part of the thinking is at that point knowing whether a thing is a cone or not is just a technical debt in the code base, as it shouldn't be acted upon. At the same time those cones are perfect test to see if the software can learn to go around things or not, so that extra code hinders development of the final software.

> Flatpak is the only packaging system that takes even a tiny step towards trying to give you some kind of security.

Is it anything more than a false pretense at security? Having a "sandbox" which most apps don't use ( usually for good reason), and not giving the users an easy way to check if the app they're installing uses the sandbox.. what's the point of that sandbox then? It's just security theater.

What list do you have that’s city friendly?
Let's call that ^^ onboarding with your team.

Then... there is onboarding with your enterprise. And that is all about compliance and benefits. It's still "really not about you". It's about HR, Legal. All important functions of the enterprise, but only very loosely related to the job you're hired for.
> They do it this way because they are stupid individuals who are paid to hire individuals more intelligent than they are.

This is partly inevitable, not every interviewer will be smarter than the candidates they are interviewing.

I’m curious why your distribution is so skewed though (all interviewers are dumber than all candidates). I’m not sure how satisfiable this is, considering that some of the candidates become employees and then future interviewers. To keep this constraint, there must continue to be an unbounded growth of intelligence at FAANG. If that’s the case, it seems like a great place to learn from smart people.

> To wit: if your hiring process is transparent and commands no respect

Would definitely say the hiring process is not as transparent as it could be. Not sure about “commands no respect”. Considering how popular algorithmic interviews have become for non-FAANG companies, there must be some people who decided to value it. Perhaps you don’t consider the opinion of anyone who does value it important enough to include. But then your sample becomes slightly biased right?
Yeah, I got confused. Those are harder to reduce cost on. I had this conversation previously about javelins, etc.

Wow. So you feel it comparable to pollute a neighborhood with health adverse fumes to receiving commentary about such behavior?

What you are talking about is not freedom. It is the opposite. It is egoism. You want to do as you please without (negativ) consequences for your actions.

Your freedom ends when it impairs the freedom of others. In this case the freedom not to be poisoned by your car's unnecessary (that is the important distinction here) exhaust fumes.

But yeah. Go on denigrating others by calling them entitled.

You can domesticate raccoons.

This is what happens when -- above everything else -- not following EXACTLY the mainstream political view gets you cancelled.

I think the Russian war in Ukraine is bad. However, I don't extend the Russian _governments_ actions to Russian citizens. All nuance is lost and unless you spout "Russia bad" or are flagrantly anti-Russia you are someone worthy of being cancelled by the Twitter mob et al.

Acts against Russian citizens who are trapped by their government are immoral and unethical. Acts that introduce malware into open source software and discriminate against people are immoral and unethical. Right now, however, doing exactly these things is the "woke" and "politically correct" thing to do.
Very nice. I actually wanted to concoct something like this for Anki, with large streets of the city—since in this sprawl I sometimes only vaguely know what's on the other end of it. But didn't think that web maps could serve me for that.

Some minor nitpicks:

- If you could allow zooming in/out with double-tap-and-drag on phones, that would be cool. Specifically it would help with one-handed use.

- On a ‘square’, the road can go right around the pin, so the distance is measured inside this circle, and I get <100 points. Frankly I should've guessed that this would be the case, but kinda prefer that the app would do it for me.

- Perhaps there's not much use in offering streets that only have like a hundred meters inside the radius—especially since the page doesn't allow scrolling outside the circle, to more comfortably tap the street and not aim at the small chunk of it.

- OTOH it would be better if I could scroll somewhat outside the circle, to have the streets in the middle of the screen where it's more convenient to look and tap.

As a side remark: using this in European-style compact cities, especially in ‘old towns’, can be quite a hardcore mode. In the 19th century, the region in the circle comprised the whole city and some outskirts, so now there are a lot of old streets in this area. And with my smaller native city (half a million people), the circle covers most of it.

You are replying to marcan from fail0verflow; he likely does. Many people from the early PS3 hacking days did.
As someone else stated on a sibling comment of yours. You can decide not to read. But you cannot decide not to breath.

You argue (if one could call you polemic that) to be free of the (negative) consequences of your actions. Free to dump your externalities onto society and burden others with the fallout of you (unnecessary) actions.

That is not freedom my dear fellow.
It is about care. If you care about your (new) team mates, if you want them to feel included, if you want them to be successful from the get go for their benefit and that of the team as a whole, then you can invest the time.

If you don't care, they can find their own way, ask around, copy someone else's half-broken configuration, and make their first commit after a month.

If you are a manager, team lead or tech lead, you likely just poured a shit-ton of time into recruiting, interviewing, hiring. Now, go spend a few hours on making sure that setup document in Confluence is updated.

It is also an iterative process. For every new hire, you spend a little bit of time, and incrementally the onboarding will improve. After a while, and particularly after having not hired anyone for a while, you use that time to just refresh the already basically good materials.

That sure does make sense. My first reaction to this was "geez, is this a job interview or a college app?"

God, college apps sucked. But at least the process was just the app. This involves 3 more interviews if you jump through the gauntlet.

Years ago I worked with someone who I instantly thought of when reading this article. He would put comments in code making fun of other people’s code, refused to participate in any company training or onboarding, he put nasty voicemail greetings on his voicemail, was just an overall disagreeable person and had disdain for everyone and everything around him.

I saw his obituary years later - “passed away unexpectedly at home” at the age of 53. I can’t imagine how stressful and sad it must be to look at the world so negatively.
Obligatory reference to computable analysis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computable_analysis

This shows that you can do exact real arithmetic without worrying about round-off errors. But it's expensive.

If you want something more practical (but dodgy), you can use arbitrary-precision arithmetic instead of exact real arithmetic. To that end, there's the Decimal module in the Python standard lib. There's also the BC programming language which is part of POSIX. If you want to do matrix arithmetic, you can use mpmath for Python like they did in this blog post, or Eigen3 for C++ with an arbitrary-precision type. This is dodgy of course because the arithmetic remains inexact, albeit with smaller rounding errors than double-precision floats.
From what I've seen, an animal that knows what it's like to be hungry tends to treat every meal as if it's their last meal, even after they're in a place with abundant food and consistently timed meals.

Activists will whinge loudly on Twitter because that's the only effective influence they have (because it turns out consumerism doesn't actually produce rich consumer choice; rather, it cements already-rich companies — who'dathunkit?)

If you're running a company, and your newly-promoted executive is actively making political donations in support of a campaign that you know a reasonable number of people consider morally reprehensible (whether you agree with those people or not), then you can expect to see an impact on your company's reputation, and you get to decide how to respond.

You (the hypothetical person running a company) may believe that it shouldn't matter, and that's fair enough, but unless your customers already agree with you on that point, then you're going to have to persuade them.

Just a note that this comment, and the thread below it (hopefully excluding the one you're reading), produced zero value to the readers of the thread. Writing these comments must've taken a lot of care and energy for the authors of the comments. But because the whole thread was essentially just a quarrel, and speaking over each other, all that effort was wasted.

Restraint: I believe this is the HN way. Hold back your comments, think about how many people are going to read it. Now think if your comment will add value to the lives or knowledge of those readers. If the answer is "No", then please exercise restraint, and try to overcome your desire to say something smart (or, intentionally, dumb) just because you have the opportunity and the time to respond.

Disclaimer: I have no relationship with HN, apart from being just another user. So my claims of "the HN way", should not be taken to mean that I know anything about HN, or the community.

It's funny you picked the Asylum Demon as an example. At the first encounter with it you don't even have your class-specific weapon. Anyone who would try to fight it for more than a few attempts with the starting weapon (broken sword that does almost no damage) is just not treating it like an RPG.

Lowering the difficulty is not going to fix that. If the devs cater the game to players who can't be bothered to explore or read their own characters stats, it will ruin a lot of aspects that most fans enjoy. After seeing so many franchises release boring, easy, focus-grouped games (where the difficulty is just HP and damage multipliers) time and time again, can you really blame fans for saying "No, don't change it, we like the game how it is"? Almost all of the From Souls games are highly regarded classics, and sticking to their guns on design philosophy is a big part of that.

PS run through the grate door, pick up your weapons and plunge attack Asylum Demon, or pick Black Firebombs as your starting gift (only takes 4-5 to kill him)
This is getting pretty common with new Macbooks. Stop buying this proprietary piece of junk. It can stop working randomly for no reason (literaly; one day it won't start and won't charge, not a single beep). There are lots of proprietary chips with their custom firmware and any of those can go bad or decide to dislike your usb-c charger and only apple or those with years of experience with behaviour of each model and access to stolen schematics and spare chips desoldered from doner boards can diagnose and fix it. The display flex cable can break by just opening and closing the lid every day and you lose video or backlight, fixing just the flex is so tedious that they often replace the whole display assembly which is custom made by apple and costs half the price of the laptop. Same if LCD cracks. If keyboard wears down you need to replace the whole keyboard assembly. And the battery is glued and difficult to replace. If you compare that with a HP Elitebook laptop, it is a completely different universe.
It is not uglier or bulkier and yet the keyboard is replaceable in minutes, held by screws, flash is in the slot, power rails are nicely visible, chips often with publicly available datasheets, battery easy to replace or measure, LCD panel has a standard size and eDP connector and you can even pick a different brand and it will work just fine.

>If there’s one thing Italians are known for, it is zipping around on Vespas without a care in the world — but a close second would of course be the country’s long and delicious history of cuisine.

It seems to me like old clichès are really tough to die.

"Roman Holiday" is 1953.

This (reknown, by Ruth Orkin) photo :

http://www.ansa.it/webimages/img_900x700/2022/3/5/b3b30da089...

is 1951.

Some 70 years have passed since, something, maybe not much, but still something, has changed, or at least I rarely happened to see people in Italy zipping around on Vespas without a care in the world.
This comes up a lot and I'm sympathetic to your plea, really (I enjoy fantasizing about a different reality where CPUs weren't just "machines to run C programs"), but in computer architecture, what really matters for one application or a class of applications might not be important when viewed across millions of programs.

The fact is that integer operations and floating point are two completely different beasts, so much so that we have different benchmark suites for each.

Integer operations are critically latency sensitive and bagging on extra semantics doesn't come for free and for most code this would be a tax. The "overflow bit" represents an implicit result that would have to be threaded around (I'm assuming that you aren't asking for exceptions which literally nobody wants). For FP we do that, but the cost and latency of FP ops is already high so it doesn't hurt quite as much.

The RISC-V spec [1] (which I assume you have seen) already discusses all these trade offs:

"We did not include special instruction-set support for overflow checks on integer arithmetic operations in the base instruction set, as many overflow checks can be cheaply implemented using RISC-V branches. Overflow checking for unsigned addition requires only a single additional branch instruction after the addition:

add t0, t1, t2
bltu t0, t1, overflow

For signed addition, if one operand’s sign is known, overflow checking requires only a single branch after the addition:

addi t0, t1, +imm
blt t0, t1, overflow

This covers the common case of addition with an immediate operand.
For general signed addition, three additional instructions after the addition are required, leveraging the observation that the sum should be less than one of the operands if and only if the other operand is negative.

add t0, t1, t2
slti t3, t2, 0
slt t4, t0, t1
bne t3, t4, overflow

In RV64I, checks of 32-bit signed additions can be optimized further by comparing the results of ADD and ADDW on the operands."

I do think that it might have been worth adding an single instruction version for the last one (excluding the branch), but I'm not aware of it getting accepted.

Differentiating between tactics and strategy illustrates different levels and priorities in the overall game plan. It might still be valid to use these words interchangeably at some level.

For example; how to set up an ambush is a tactical question, but when and why might be strategic questions. Tact is near synonymous with "how to act".
I’m not saying they promote them explicitly. I’m arguing that they should downrank them because it’s a likely indicator of spam - there’s a lot of spam websites out there which are just bullshit listicles or fake review websites whose primary objective is to get you to buy through their affiliated link. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s software out there that can churn out and update these websites automatically. Google has no incentive to downrank these though because those spam websites also often contain Google analytics or ads.
Its naive to think US didnt fully expect the war. They were the first ones to move diplomatic staff and special assets. If anything sudden withdrawal might of secured a comfortable crisis just in time for 2024 elections.
The risk with the first method is that if the authority is wrong, no one can correct its course. One unlucky dice roll and you have 30 years of a dangerously incompetent maniac. Some will only judge such countries by their lucky rolls.

While a war unites a nation, it’s offset by the waste and destruction it creates. The cold war didn’t build more school and hospitals. All those resources went elsewhere, with the occasional dividend for civilians.

Mountains do get moved quickly when you sign blank cheques, but at a greater cost, with more waste and corruption. We put way too much faith in crash programs.
This is utter nonsense. Quality of life has improved in so many ways you must have simply not even bothered to check.

I'm guess that your assembly code is RISC-V with the Zba extension. Is the non-Zba version worse than Arm64?

Compiling your function with Godbolt, I get:

RISC-V (no Zba) Clang - 7 instructions - https://godbolt.org/z/7znnrzxKq
Arm64 Clang - 7 instructions - https://godbolt.org/z/Trv8scxad

Annoyingly I can't see the code size for the Arm64 case because no output is generated if I tick the "Compile to binary" option in "Output". I have to use GCC instead:

RISC-V (no Zba) Clang - 20 bytes - https://godbolt.org/z/eWfPaorcj
Arm64 GCC - 24 bytes - https://godbolt.org/z/bzsPzov5h
I think this game would benefit greatly if I could just input my ZIP code and the map would move over to that starting point?

That is one hell of a powerful line! I have been looking into hacker culture and silicon valley of the past. What used to be great paradise of hack culture and innovation, now seems like a huge ponzi scheme of invest, make, sell and repeat. There are so many companies out there, selling things to another company. Is it really good for the society to be reformed around some vision of tech bros who never know what lies beyond the hills of the valley?
Coming back to our discussions, Android 13 is finally making ARM MTE a reality, so that is yet another front.

While only available as developer mode flag, this might mean it will be enabled by default on Android 14, as this is how such kind of features tend to be integrated into Android (1 OS generation for testing purposes and fine tuning).

I find a bit ironic that for all the hate Oracle gets, Solaris SPARC has been the most successful UNIX to tame C, and has taken so long for this kind of features to spread into other platforms.
