Honestly, probably because so many languages have non-compacting collectors that people just accept it as a trade-off - in the sense that compacting collectors are non-trivial and without lots of work can produce significantly higher GC pauses, and so doing it really well requires a lot of engineering effort that you might prefer to be spent elsewhere adding features you want more.

golang's collector isn't compacting either - though it uses per-size-class arenas for allocation so you don't end up with fragmentation bloat to nearly the same extent. Part of me wonders if simply building R against jemalloc would get a decent chunk of the same advantages.
It's not a free market since the manufacturer determines what the stores should sell it for and the result is a middleman extracting the value between set price and market price.
Interesting, I see nothing available from store.apple.com until 6 April earliest, and 29 April for m1 max and even later depending on options.
yes, it's a bit of a shitshow, as mutually evidenced. unless consumers brush up on such intricate details (most do not), they will inevitably fall into traps such as "i7 is better than i3" e.g. i7-2600 being outperformed by i3-10100 and "quad core is better than dual core". marketing is becoming more focused on generations now which is a prudent move: "10th Gen is better than 2nd Gen" but it will be at least a decade before the shitshow is swept
If you want to prevent scalpers just sell the new units that come into stock in a reverse auction. Start the price at $500 and lower the price by a dollar every minute. Once all of the stock is sold out you charge everyone the price the last unit was sold for.

In this system bots don't have an advantage over humans. Humans can preinput what they are willing to pay and there will be no race against bots like what you see here.
I think I'm on googles side on this one. We can change the rule if we don't like it but it's more clever than anything abusive.
A piece of pseudo-intellectual drivel that fails to get to the point.

"just as we constantly debate norms of what speech is socially acceptable, we debate norms about what responses to speech are socially acceptable."

I consider the above section critical in his misunderstanding. The measuring stick by which people are cancelled, here referred to as socially acceptable norms, are in fact not norms at all by any stretch of the imagination. Meaning, these are the enforced norms of loud outrage-addicted unhinged characters forming mobs, not the common norms of the population at large.

Further, there's nothing to debate about these "crazy norms" or their disproportionate responses to non-compliance as they are uncontrollable. Learn how a mob works.

When people cannot express their feelings on political topics, with opinions commonly found acceptable by the public at large, then that is a big problem. It's incredibly dangerous and this is how you get extreme counter movements.

The heart of the matter is not the shouting at each other, that will always happen, it's real world consequences. When they go for your job or inflict life long reputation damage, that makes people anxious to express themselves.

We have to understand that this is a new problem. Before, in the physical world, if you would say something controversial, people might verbally counter you, which is business as usual and the free exchange of ideas, including bad ideas. That's quite a different experience from a pile-on by the mob, smearing you, calling your employer to get you fired, digging into everything you ever posted online to do maximum damage.

That dynamic is new and it has to be fought. It's cruel and sadistic.
China has already lost from this conflict. Before Ukraine there was a widely accepted view in the west that China wanted terroritories such as Taiwan and that Western democracies were too fractured to oppose it. The Russian conflict has directly shown that's not the case and that western democracies will put themselves through significant hardship to oppose strategic aggression. It was possible that China could have pushed its agenda slowly and acheived its objectives, but it's probably a decade further away from that now thanks to Russia, and the west is pretty much in agreement it needs to find ways to move away from dependence on the East for essential goods like semiconductors (which tbf, was starting to happen before this). It's also shown that Chinese officials will personally be foregoing all their western luxuries if this happens. In return for this, it's got a sclerotic ally in the form of Russia begging for MREs and selling cheap oil.

If you want to look at winners from this, look at Trump impotently shouting about Germany's defense budget, and then look at Germany's new commitments to spending. This aligned NATO in an unprecendented way.
China overtakes the US in terms of research quality, finds study
I don't think you need to decide today, I assume you have just recently been diagnosed. Sit with it for a while, carry on with the path your on and if that doesn't feel right in 6 months, a year, 3 years time then you will be in a better position to think what you want to do.

Committing your future today based on this news, is likely to be an over reaction.
I think there are arguments to be made in favor of a more free market approach (or a less free market one.) At this moment we seem to have the worst of both worlds.
DLA: Automatic Decompilation of Data Structures
I don't think "speech without social repercussions should be safe from approbation as long as it's popular speech" is a good norm either.
You are correct. We should use the terminology "insanely selfish." If everyone (not immunosuppressed etc) got vaccinated, fewer people would die. This is science, not religion. This is not hard to understand unless you're willfully committed to ignorance. The existing vaccines have so far still been effective against newer strains, just less so.

> The anti-anti-vax crowd is just a walking meme at this point.

This is a semantically null statement.
Where are All Word Settings Saved and How to Back them Up?
The A-Bike was a project by Clive Sinclair (ZX Spectrum etc) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-bike

Had one for a bit, very small wheels, was kindof fun but in London its just easier to have a normal bike and arrange your commute so that you use it, rather than carry a small bike around.

I also had a Strida, really nice design and a good balance between usefulness and foldyness

https://www.strida.com/
Counterpoint: dude does not have a valid point.
So in other words, "stop being so creative, you're stifling my creativity!"

What if I told you you can have fantastical alien worlds using stylized and weird rendering that are also physically correct?
> Stay away from all drugs. Drugs do not lead to enlightenment. They do not lead to some hidden knowledge. They throw your neuro-chemicals out of balance-- potentially forever if you're misfortunate.

Counterpoint: I have done quite a lot of DMT and 5-MeO-DMT and they were both fun and interesting substances.

My advice is: Do not stay away from drugs unless: a) that is your personal preference, b) you have a specific medical issue that precludes being able to experiment with something safely or c) you are not curious enough to educate yourself thoroughly about a substance before trying it out.

HPPD is wildly exaggerated by almost exclusively people that have a vested interest in policing other people’s behavior and values. Belief in the dangers of “the ability of any substance to permanently change your brain in a negative and nonspecific way” (a hilarious logically impossible supposition) almost always follow up with “don’t do drugs, instead do what I tell you to do. Read my self help book or convert to my religion. My values are the best values.”
I had a push scooter, and they're very dangerous.

Wheels are small, board is short, and center of gravity is high. It just takes a small pothole covered with leaves (so, not even winter), and the driver will fly forward (I did).

E-scooters are heavier, with larger wheels and longer boards, so they may be less accident-prone, but I've never tried one.
It's 110ppi, which is the most common display PPI still. Keep in mind 1440p is a family of resolutions, not a single resolution. In this case this monitor is 5120x1440, which is twice the resolution of the most common 1440p resolution (2560x1440).
> I certainly become uncomfortable and angry, but at the end of the day I realize it's something I cannot fundamentally change.

This is the point on which we agree. When I say

>> Feeling tense and unwelcome in a space where people disagree with you is totally normal and to be expected. A huge fraction of people grow up feeling exactly like that in virtually every space they inhabit.

I'm not excusing intolerance. I'm simply saying in my own way what I quoted from you above. One must choose: either avoid discomfort or grow some callouses.

As far as I can tell a lot of the noise around cancel culture is from folks who were climbing 5.12 in a soft gym and are now demanding the guidebook author soften the grades because they can barely huff up a 5.9. The ground shifted and they aren't willing to put in the work but feel entitled to the send.

Is the area sandbagged? Sure. Does that suck? Sure. We can commiserate for a bit. But eventually I expect that the complainer will either suck it up, leave, or write their own book. Endless complaining about not being comfortable in all circumstances eventually becomes tiresome and comes off as entitled.
> All of this is to say that Americans’ perception that they can’t speak without disproportionate blowback is not unimpeachable

It's strange to argue that chilled speech should be measured by something other than people's perception of the risks of speaking freely. If people say they are afraid to speak out, then they are afraid. One could argue that the press is making too big a deal out of a particular topic, but I don't think there's a strong argument that places like the NYT are talking too much about cancel culture (conservative outlets do talk about it frequently, but polling indicates that cancel culture is perceived to be a problem by non-conservatives as well).
Last I checked you can plug any monitor into a Mac, why would anyone need this one outside of further embellishing their Apple ecosystem of products? I don't buy an iPhone and get mad that it doesn't work with Android Auto.
There are no hypotheticals. It is clear and understood that the civil Russian population will suffer the sanctions the most. I don't understand what you mean by calling that hypothetical collateral damage.

Sanctions making Putin retreat seems more hypothetical to me. Targeting civilians on purpose to try to change a dictators mind is naive and it underestimates the power of a dictatorship inside its own country. Of course seizing foreign assets of Russian oligarchs has to be done, quitting projects with Russian companies as well and many other things, just don't try to affect the middle-low Russian class to create difficulties, it will only mess with the people and it wont damage Putin's regime.

I also want maximum damage on Russia. Offer Middle-low class Russians something WAY better than what they cant get in their country, and make it easy for them to go outside of Russia to get it. IMO that causes more damage than the sanctions (short and long term) but we will never know.
All psychedelics are at least as safe as alcohol, if consumed responsibly. We accept alcohol even though drinking too much at one sitting can kill you and drunk people routinely smash their cars into other cars, etc., so 'safety' is a relative concept. Caution is clearly the best approach.

However, the claim that 'hallucinogens can affect you forever, negatively and never stop' is unsupported. These drugs share a common receptor as the basis of their action, the 5-HTP receptor, which is involved with sensory perception at some low level in the brain. This can result in 'visions' or intensified color perception or numerous other effects (synthesia, etc.) Some people enjoy the experience, others do not. The most important rule for the neophyte experimentalist to follow is 'less is more'.

Personally I found psychedelics immensely therapeutic and a great aid to quitting alcohol, and also of great benefit to my 3D-visualization skills. I'd also note that consumer culture norms ('more is always better') can cause disasters when mixed with psychedelics.

However as I note in another comment, toads are a horrible source of 5-MeO-DMT due to the fact that toads of this type contain a variety of other toxins.
Ken White doesn't think you're having a collective delusion either. See, for instance, his recent response on Twitter to the drama about unpopular speech at Occidental. So I'm not sure what you're rebutting here.
> Today, you can get fired for using a slur in the "mention" category, rather than in the "use" category.

Surely a reference to something is different than the thing itself, and quoting someone does not mean that you endorse their viewpoint.

Claiming or acting otherwise seems like it would lead to all sorts of logical contradictions.
The CPU complex on the M1 series doesn't have anything close to the full bandwidth to memory that the SoC has (like, half). The only thing that can drive the full bandwidth is the GPU.
> Good code doesn’t need documentation

It's amazing how this POV lives on, even in an essay which decries technical debt. Documentation and well-written code fill different roles with only some overlap. Your code can be beautifully written, but if I need to read the whole 500+ lines to figure out what you're doing, rather than read a single paragraph at the top of the file, you've burned through a lot of my time. Good documentation explains the why, code explains the how.
Markets Are Pushing Fed into Developing-Economy Territory
Muscle usage between a bike and a scooter isn’t even close. The leg you’re pushing with isn’t the problem, it’s that you’re supporting your whole body weight on one bent leg while you’re pushing, and effectively doing a one legged half-squat every time you transition from coasting to pushing and back. Add in the additional rolling resistance from the tiny wheels and the lack of mechanical advantage from gearing and overall you have something that’s only modestly better than jogging except when you’re costing down hill.
From what I understood, it was not necessarily the quality of the SD card the problem, but that the rpi was lacking a capacitor or something like that preventing the current to be shut instantly when there is a power cut or a shutdown.

And sdcard don't like at all sudden loss of power in the middle of a 'write' or 'refresh' command.

Cards death or corruption happened to me a lot even when taking care with rpi but never when using beaglebones.
I usually spend a few minutes waiting for public transit, though - which would be more than enough time to fold up a bicycle.
They aren’t security controls at all. Just puffery.

I’d look at stuff like FedRAMP as a starting point for the control environment and explore further.
At which point your browser probably auto-fills the credentials again :-)
The seat is attached to the front column, not to the bottom bracket like on most other bikes (folding or not). This seems to give them a better portability return for sacrificing wheel base than other designs. So that's what they did, apparently: the side views look like on the brink of a wheelie from even the slightest acceleration or incline, all while not getting the CoG all too far from stoppie tipovers. The advertised 25 km/h will feel maddeningly fast.

Please check out https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/109 !

I absolutely agree language-specific package managers need better support. Nix RFC 109 is a simple-stupid way to get some "important from derivation" in Nixpkgs, so we can collectively dogfood them "lang2nix" tools and finally make them good.

It is really sad to me that many users understandly think "hmm, C is crazy, surely this Nix should be even better with more uniform language ecosystems packages!", only to die on the hell of the lang2nixs all being just not quite good enough. This is huge stumbling block for developement shops that try to use Nix that I want to see removed!
Javascript in V8 is more performant than Java on a lot of tasks, and almost always 'sooner'. V8 is focused on 'getting going quickly' and it does, very fast. Java takes some time to optimize for most tasks.

Also, 'performance' isn't really an issue once you are past 'good enough'.

I don't think most devs are worried about Java/Node/Python/Golang performance on the backend for most apps. Obviously not always the case, but in most instances, it's not a primary concern.

Frankly, these days, when I think about 'performance' I think about 'developer performance!'. Java downsides in that its bureaucratic by convention, but at least it's super solid and reliable. I really, really wish it were a bight lighter however.
Sorry but everything you’re saying only applies now. In a few years when we conquere aging and biological death this thought process of the inevitability of death will seem silly. For hundreds of thousands of years for sapiens the light just went off at night and it was difficult to see if not for the moon, to most people it seemed like an inevitability.
It’s surprising to me that in a community like HN we take biological death as a fact of life where the only thing standing between us and biological immortality is the disproportion between people thinking like you and people thinking like me.
And regarding your healthcare statements; if he finds a cure and it’s an actual cure, the socio-institutional approvals will be trivial to get.
They are different bikes for different things.

The Brompton is a much better folded bike (it's a lot smaller, it actually stays folded, it doesn't have exposed greasy parts when folded, you can use it as a shopping cart, etc).

High end Terns (Verge) are more like a normal bike with good components but they are nowhere near as compact when folded (likelihood of walking it into a shop and not getting yelled at is nil, unlike with the Brompton), they don't have as good commuter accessories as the Bromptons and they ride much stiffer (which is good or bad depending on what you are doing with the bike).

Source: own both
Going to be really inefficient and possibly unstable for anything that is longer than a few blocks or anything where the terrain changes. Bike wheels are large for a reason
Speaking from experience. The last Apple display I bought was a 2008 24" LED Cinema Display. I paid $900. 14 years later, I'm still using it. It works perfectly, albeit it is very dated. Last year I thought an Samsung 32" 4K to replace it and it died within 2 weeks of having it.

I bought an Apple Studio Display the day they went on sale. Why? Because I'm expecting it to last me a minimum of 8 years. And it probably will.

On another note, listening to YouTube "influencers" is no better than believing a company's marketing team. Think for yourself and go by your gut.
These things start out attempting to correct an injustice and then take on a life of their own. Unscrupulous people see it as a career opportunity under the pretense of moral righteousness. This is exactly what happened in the Soviet Union in 1930s. All the evils were done in the name of correcting injustice and helping the oppressed.

I'm in favor of correcting injustices, obviously. The problem is with the opportunists.
Steven Pinker (it's Steven, not Stephen) wrote a letter that helped obtain for Jeffrey Epstein an 18-month sentence for child sex trafficking in which his cell was kept unlocked and he was allowed to leave the prison for 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, to work from his own office. My point here being: maybe Pinker isn't the example you want to call out here; maybe we can argue about somebody with perhaps fewer reasons to be "canceled". Pinker is a complicated figure; he is not, as many would have it, a perfect example of a pure academic singled out purely for his opinions on culture-war issues.

I agree with you about the potency of his credentials; lesser academics have been driven out for much smaller roles in the Epstein saga.
This article does not include Okta's statement claiming they had not been breached.

Regardless, their statement was a legal word-soup that bounced around the issue. The Lapsus$ team responded to it and said they could reset the passwords and MFA of over 95% of Okta customers which would mean they could get into any account, and thus any service, they wanted, though obviously they would be noticed pretty soon after.

This is both sides claiming things without any evidence, mind you, so take it with as many grains of salt as you need.

Devops is not my area of expertise to put it mildly, but "a single big-ass server" scenarios are often pretty well covered by "a second big-ass server configured as a mirror/hot-spare", right?

I have been gravely concerned that Putin would order a nuclear strike in Ukraine or elsewhere. Now, I believe the chances of that happening have actually gone down substantially. Why? Because Putin doesn’t want to risk ordering a nuclear strike to find out these deterrents, which haven’t been tested in decades, no longer operate (or never actually did operate). Then Russia would be completely vulnerable. Instead, I believe Putin could order nuclear testing to start again
You could always say "I could have made that", but the important part is: you didn't.

No one cares if you automate the painting of a black square. They care about the intention of the mind that thought it was important enough to do. That's why it's art.
