Instagram for Safari and Chrome works well for me. I speculate that Instagram's web development might be optimized for Chrome, but not Firefox (which other users in the comments are using and having problems with).

I've also experienced problems with Firefox (especially with speed) when using any Google Suite apps (Docs, Sheets). I used to exclusively use Firefox, but some of my work as a volunteer requires social media account management (via Instagram) and GSuite apps for collaboration.
Nobody said that the blame is all on the users. Also, you can blame Microsoft all you want, it ain't going to get your data back.
This is literally a point made in this article too.

How is it not relevant in this thread?
If there was some good articles to point to I would. However I don't want to single out people ranting against RISC-V. This is more about opinions which keep popping out here in Hacker news, twitter, Quora and other places. I don't want this discussion to be turned personal.

It should be possible to discuss these opinions without singling out anyone.

I am however talking about claims put forth after ARMv8. The argument here has basically been this: Both ARM and RISC-V aims to cover both the low end and high end. Some ARM fans think that by not including conditional instructions RISC-V really only works for high-end CPUs. The idea here is that AArch32 would be better than RV32 for lower-end chips.

You know, this might be the most horrific and evil reply I've read on HN. You actually have the fucking nerve to call the murder and oppression of women and gays something that is only bad when you're 'biased'. How can a person's understanding of ethics become so warped as to actually believe that?
For what it's worth, I think Vimeo doesn't have great authentication support. Most of the Patreons and Kickstarters which I know used it for distribution had a single word password to gate access to content.

Circulating images of a minor child engaged in sexual abuse do not constitute an ongoing harm to that child? That's a fascinating viewpoint.

Right along with people who think child abuse images should be okay to keep as long as you aren't the one who made them.
From another article I read, it appears that most of the pattern is due to diffraction from the edges of the hexagonal mirrors.
Friedman mentions Germany post-WWI as an example of extreme inflation. The German hyperinflation is often cited as a contributing cause for the rise of Hitler. However, Germany was well into deflation, to the tune of -9%, by the time that Hitler became Chancellor. The German hyperinflation turned out to be... transitory, lasting just 2 years from 1921 to 1923:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation_in_the_Weimar_R...

Credit for ending the hyperinflation is usually given to the introduction of the "Rentenmark," a currency "backed" by land.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rentenmark

Yet this idea has not been challenged to the extent that it should be. How does the introduction of another currency scheme cure inflation? And in such a dramatic manner? Is it possible that inflation, rather than being a monetary phenomenon as Friedman famously asserted, is actually a psychological phenomenon?
That is only because the average person is priced out of it, honestly. If I remember correctly, it cost around days work if you make minimum wage.
No, what’s happening now is that real demand is higher than supply across many supply chains. If it was just money supply, there wouldn’t be widespread shortages across virtually every supply chain.
> The point is that the person who owns the land gets to set the pay of the workers.

If that were true, the less compassionite owners would set the pay to zero, so it's obviously more complicated than that.
It’s undying physical and emotional dependence, not loyalty.

That said, maybe that’s fun for you; everyone has their own preferences.
This is a great story and I hope the film is able to be developed with quality photos. I would love to watch a documentary of this fellow talking about his photos and the history of the Boston music scene. He must have a treasure trove of rock and roll memories in his head.
Show HN: Owarezaka, a Gitlab mobile app for iOS/Android
This already exists. The rich are less stressed and happier. They have absurd nepotism and social connections. They don't die of curable diseases or from lack of treatment. Their children are better educated and less traumatized growing up. Of all the advantages the rich have, genetic modification is one that could be reduced in price enough for the middle class to afford.
Only 9.9%? That's kind of surprising. You frequently hear the refrain "why don't you rewrite it in Rust, like Firefox did" in response to security snafus, so I assumed that FF had more Rust in it.
Instruction byte count matters quite a lot when you're buying ROM in volume. And today, the main commercial battleground for RISCV is in the microcontroller space where people care about these things.

Yea absolutely. So much of it is a shell game (in some companies) where you attempt to shift blame and take credit for successes. Those type of consultancies help facilitate the game.
While it isn't needed, I do imagine for western europe is might be worth it to stop over somewhere, in order to be more cost-efficient
Yeah, that's my exclusion for small pizzas. We only do personal pizzas for the kids. The rest of the family shares a larger one (or two, or however many).
Most of the complaints about RISC-V are extremely basic things like array indexing and conditional execution. These will never not be needed.
You cannot reasonably expect people to check into a plethora of information streams, digest it, and be able to come to a meaningful consensus of action.

The meetings, the management, the prioritization, they all act as information filters of a sort. Otherwise, you experience death by information overload.

The most "open" of open source and remote companies still have meetings, product roadmaps, and prioritization. Resources and time are finite.
That would definitely explain why facebook.com still has had the exact same unread messages counter bug from 2014 that they used as a case-study for the React/Flux announcement video[1]. They just don't care.

Just because they get to set the pay, doesn't mean their choice is a totally independent one.
Yes, pretty much. It’s definitely cool that so many folks here have left positive feedback, but ultimately I don’t have the same bandwidth and motivation that I had when I started this project. Whenever those return, I’ll return to it. Until then, I’m just planning to chew on the core idea and take in everyone’s suggestions.
Indeed why use unsigned? Go take a look at a lot of C code (hint, look at SPEC benchmarks). They do that. Decades of pointer == int == unsigned have let to a lot of horrific code. But we still compile it.

The sins of the original RISC-V was spending too much time looking at RV32 and not realizing how big a problem this is in practice. Zba (slipped in as it’s not really “bit manipulation”) fixes the worst of this.

ADD: The problem in this HN thread is the same reason we got compressed it in the first place. The vast majority of people aren’t doing high performance wide implementation so the true cost isn’t widely appreciated. The people holding the decision power certainly didn’t understand it. I really think you have to live it to understand it.

Isn't that a pretty straightforward violation of the GDPR? Consent to track somebody's personal information requires the data subject to be informed as to the use of the information, and personal information may not be used outside of the usages that were consented to.

I find the reverse to be true. It is only when a company becomes a monopoly does it begin acting in this way. It becomes hellbent on maintaining that monopoly.
I don't know your PR, but the way this is helped in corporate-land is with very small PRs and feature flags. Some maintainers are a lot more of a pain in the ass than others, though.
This is about using dogs to help with diagnosis. Anything the medical staff would learn from the dogs would still be covered under doctor-patient confidentiality.

Training dogs to help could provide cheaper, more accurate tests that are less invasive and less painful for patients. This has nothing to do with "hassling" you.

I'd be more concerned with the ethics of using dogs for COVID-19 detection given that dogs are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This looks really cool! I’m particularly interested in the event-driven APIs: for years I imagined writing partially live/partially pre-programmed music where the latter adapts to the former by aspects of its performance alone, to give even the pre-programmed music more of an improvised feel. Eg key and tempo changes, extending a bridge/solo. This looks like it can achieve all of that, given some creative application of MIDI signals. I’m excited to try it out!

The LC 68030 series had an Apple // emulation card. I had one. Later they had the “Houdini” “DOS Compatibility Card” for 68040s and the PowerMac 6100 series. I had one of those two.
The question might be whether intrinsic motivation is inescapable.

"From the start of this book I have had occasion, in various contexts, to refer to the overwhelming elation felt by scientists at the moment of discovery, an elation of a kind which only a scientist can feel and which science alone can evoke in him. In the very first chapter I quoted the famous passage in which Kepler announced the discovery of his Third Law: ‘...nothing holds me; I will indulge my sacred fury...’1 The outbreak of such emotions in the course of discovery is well known, but they are not thought to affect the outcome of discovery. Science is regarded as objectively established in spite of its passionate origins. It should be clear by this time that I dissent from that belief; and I have now come to the point at which I want to deal explicitly with passions in science. I want to show that scientific passions are no mere psychological by-product, but have a logical function which contributes an indispensable element to science. They respond to an essential quality in a scientific statement and may accordingly be said to be right or wrong, depending on whether we acknowledge or deny the presence of that quality in it."

Is it the Juba sniper's right to shoot American soldiers in the head while standing outside their vehicle in downtown Baghdad?

On the one hand, I cannot deny the right of Iraqis to defend their territory from a criminal war of aggression. But do I need to stand up for what he is doing? Should I put money in his paypal account? Do I have to agree that all soldiers are legitimate targets, even when there is no military objective other than "exacting a cost?" Can I ask who pays that cost? Is it the war criminal George Bush, or just some grieving American family somewhere? If twice as many families have sons, brothers, fathers taken from them, would a future George Bush think twice?

Back to the topic at hand. Of course we can understand the motivation but at the same time the question for us is whether we in the open source community want to preserve software as a humanitarian sphere which is not necessarily neutral in conflict but, at least, part of civil society and not involved in or drawn into cyber-warfare as far as possible.

That fact that hostilities have broken out does not mean that everyone has to camp at one ridiculous extreme (kill them all) or another (total capitulation) and it's perfectly reasonable to try to find a path between them which is consistent with our own moral and ethical code.

you attribute to art things which you don't define ("personal expression") and a function that cannot be measured and which you probably can't even define ("... growth in the people who engage with it").

'growth'? in what?

what is 'engage with it' mean?

What if I disagree, does that mean I have a different and valid opinion, or that I'm mentally stunted and unable to 'grow'?

I could go on. Your justification is the kind of unchallengeable nebulosity that artist types come up with to justify stuff, and if I don't get it, I'm wrong.

I'm not anti-art by any means, but I do wonder at the ability of 'art' as a topic to inhibit critical thinking, or making up one's own mind.

IMO anyway.
I'm not sure awareness of the social plights of the oppressed underclass was a big hallmark of early 19th century aristocrats.

> the areas that are deep-red and red is where Solar is both economical and environmental positive. Orange, may be environmental positive area. The rest of it is, mis-allocation.

That's greatly oversimplified. One of the best places for solar panels is remote areas of Alaska. Being off the national grid, electricity is terribly expensive, and even the low output available at high latitudes is a big positive and worth the up-front costs.

Whether solar panels makes sense is a highly variable issue. Rising electric prices while solar panel costs fall makes the area where they are economical expand every year. That said, with the Pacific Northwest having so much hydro power and relatively low population/demand, it might be a while before it's a good investment up there.

It doesn't have to be one or the other. It's quite possible to have inflation along with the shortages that are causing price spikes for particular products, like GPUs and cars.
"We want you to leave" is a pretty ok thing for them to say. "You have a week to leave" is not. It's sleazy and unprofessional, and it's a signal that it's best for anyone to avoid them in the future.
This is kind of a weird mix of points. Ignoring his political axe-grinding, I think the value of a college degree is increasingly in question for many fields because the price has risen wildly for decades without a corresponding increase in market value. (Except perhaps for elite-institution degrees, which are more about the brand and the network than what people actually learn.)

I think we haven't seen at least a partial collapse only because most American companies are bad at hiring, bad at investing in workers, and bad at keeping them. But imagine a company where programmers are happy and tend to say for years. That company might do just as well, or perhaps better, running an in-house boot camp and apprenticeship program as by hiring new grads.
Fair enough. That sounds like a much more reasonable explanation. If that’s really true, he should just summon the courage to be honest.

One of the chief issues preventing the merge at that time was that it was the era of maximum hostility of the Mozilla community to anything not named Firefox. Adding any code to support Thunderbird in the core codebase would have been at the mercy as to whether that module owner was nice or not.
No, when you make something a free-for-all, that happens. Conservation areas exist.
Does a credit card in fact verify age? Anyone at all can go buy a prepaid card at the grocery store, right?
As a hiring manager at one of tech firms, I can confirm that I can’t care less where you completed your deep learning courses - at Berkeley or on Coursera. Your GitHub profile matters so much more (especially so if you are fresh out of college).
Right, but I think the concept of a national ID necessarily has the property of everyone (as close as is feasible) having one because it is required and they should be stable across time. Passports are optional, they expire, and they aren't stable. Not everyone can get an American passport (e.g., non-citizens).

Tax IDs are as close as we've got.
Nice! It's a subtle shift but I think your framing is key.
Why use windoze at all?
It might be. But also its the same excuse our government gives for prices increases: it's always 'external factors' and never 'we just printed a huge bunch of pesos'. What I think is happening is that there are virtual price-controls and if you implement price-controls to fight inflation, there is only one outcome since it first was done by the Hammurabi code 4000 years ago in Babylon: shortages.
Another formulation (unless I misread the article and it's the same thing here) is the Shapley Value [^sv], where you divide up the extra spoils according to the value added by each agent. This works pretty nicely with high numbers of agents too, as well as makes sure it's in everyone's interest to join your sharing scheme even if they're not already in it.

Yeah so "mass suicide" it is.

You'll understand if the rest of the human race isn't quite as edgy and nihilistic as you are.
The current system where we can choose between security and convenience is good enough for me. I loath those who would take that choice away from me.
I thought about this, but you're still stuck trusting the implementation unless you test with actual illegal data, which is often criminal and immoral to obtain.

Example: How does a researcher test whether algorithmically-classified illegal imagery stored on user devices is being scanned and reported home to Apple's servers, and what those bounds of AI-classified criminality are? (presumably with respect to what is illegal in the user's jurisdiction)

Testing by using a test phrase, like in a spam context, is inadequate here as a scanning system can trivially be architected to pass those publicly-known tests, while still overreaching into people's personal files and likely miscategorizing content and intent.

If a user connects via a VPN to Russia for whatever reasons, does their personal content start getting reported to that country's law enforcement by their notion of what is illegal?

Parents often have all sorts of sensitive photos around which are not held with exploitative intent. "Computer says arrest."
> Washington and Oregon aren't just cloudy skies. The eastern half of both states is a rain shadow with a desert climate and plenty of sunshine.

That's not the only reason solar panels aren't a good investment. Higher latitudes also have peak electrical demands at night, in winter, when solar is not producing anything. It's a much better fit as you approach the equator, where peak electrical demands are from air conditioning, during the afternoon, in the longest, brightest days.
But would you even buy the equivalent when the gpu and ram were "hard-coded"?

Suppose I asked you if I could borrow your car to get groceries. A week later, I take your car again and go for a road trip. You would be justified in being mad at me, because (1) the consent didn't cover the use and (2) the initial consent was for a limited time.

Google has an obligation to verify age. Google also has an obligation to limit tracking of personal information to usages that have been consented to. Neither of these obligations negate the other, and if Google never put it onto their feature roadmap, that just means that Google has been negligent in fulfilling their obligations.
