There are so many issues with the current implimentation that I think saying "it runs" is a bit of a stretch. I'll give it to you when you have a hardware-accelerated desktop, until then "it runs" Linux as much as a toaster SOC can "run" Linux.
Vitamin C is simply an electron donor for other chemical reactions. That can be very very important if not critical. However more is not better. Endurance athletes know that taking more than say 200mg (twice the RDA) of C per day will defeat training adaptations because it calms the stress response too much.

However people get more than a bit overboard and woo-woo about Vitamin C.

Linus Pauling was a chemist and was obsessed with it but at least he was scientific about his quest.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Pauling#Medical_research...

and it gave us the Linus Pauling Institute which is a great thing for factual nutrition, I use it often as a reference:

> Single data point, but my grandfather was treated for a systemic infection at Sentara Norfolk General by Dr. Marik using his Vitamin C protocol and it brought him back from the brink of death when nothing else worked.

And this is exactly why scientists rightfully ignore "single data points" such as this. People get sick and recover all the time. And sometimes people get very, very, very sick, and they still recover on their own.

So there would be a non-trivial percentage of people who would have gotten very sick, and just based on timing it wouldn't be unusual that they would be given some treatment and then credit that treatment when they recovered.

Not only is this study blatant fraud, nine other studies tried to replicate the results and showed no benefit to sepsis outcomes.
This is because of ENDC (E-UTRAN New Radio – Dual Connectivity) as carriers transition to SA (Stand Alone) in 5G.

Back in the LTE days, you only had one transmitter. With ENDC in 5G, you have two transmitters, one LTE as an anchor and another for 5G.

The sooner we get to SA, we can drop the LTE anchor and go back to a single 5G TX with however many DLCA bands you want for UEs.

Twice the transmitters, twice the current = worse battery life.
The best simulation activities would be to work in cold calls for a fundraising effort for a non-profit, or work as a journalist. This involves calling lots of strangers or semi-strangers to ask them for money in the former, and emailing lots of people to request interviews (who may be hostile) for the latter.

Both activities have a useful end, and would let someone assertively say no.
I've seen tons of such comparisons over the last year. Also, I don't consider single-core performance nonsensical since it correlates highly with some real-world uses like Web browsing. Intel is currently winning in single-core performance, so if people were cherry-picking benchmarks to show the M1 in a good light they'd choose something else.
The issue isn't just a lack of "niceness" but also how this type of comment derails the conversation into an offtopic argument which should have been pursued only in the original context.

If you disagree with the particular assertions here (that your are grossly oversimplifing without context), you should address it directly. Saying "it's fine because you do it too" isn't so much a lack of "niceness", but rather how this type of comment unproductively derails the conversation into an offtopic argument while adding zero constructive discussion.

Step 1 if you've made a mistake is to tell your supervisor. Waiting to see if it'll go away on its own will make the problem grow, robbing your supervisor of the ability to fix it. Your failure to tell others makes you look like you either don't understand what's happening around you, or that you did it on purpose.
I often come up with solutions to technical problems I've been struggling with at work, in my sleep, and when I wake up I think I have something new to try. In practice it seems like the idea my unconscious came up with is only any good about 1/3 of the time or so, but even so, it's useful that some part of my brain I don't have direct access to was crunching away on it.

One approach is to have human testers. When a low quality site gets high rank, you investigate in detail how that happened and downrank the linking sites.

It shouldn't be that hard to find the bad network if you're systematically investigating all the time. Google has people testing search results often.

The problem is that this is fairly expensive. But quite possibly not the largest cost a search engine would have.

I was interested in this game quite a bit for awhile when I was much younger, but then read an article or something stating that the first player has a strong advantage and that they have a guaranteed route to win simply by virtue of playing first. I'm not sure if this is correct or not but it was my understanding at the time, and it kinda dampened my enthusiasm.
Checking my understanding: Are you saying that the halting problem is computable (if still completely infeasible in general) for all finite deterministic machines, and that the uncomputability of the busy beaver sequence[1] is due to the infinite memory of Turing machines even though the busy beavers themselves are finite?

ETA: wait that doesn't make sense because it's equivalent to computing the busy beaver number for the program under consideration. What am I missing?

It's entirely possible that it's true. That the throwaway account was to provide information the main account owner couldn't provide because it was confidential. Alternatively, it could be totally made up.

It's impossible to know. I do know someone elsewhere on HN[1] claimed to (a) work at wasmer and (b) that the decision was based on personal reasons. On a very low rated post. But that's also unverified, and could just mean that they think the founder is an ass.

I never fully understood why students would go to a bottom tier law school and take out 200K in loans, when you very well know the value of a bottom tier law school. I mean, today is not the lack of information age. You can pretty much find out all the data points needed about a school. For instance, bottom tier schools typically don't advertise the graduating salaries or employment data. Just this one data point is an indicator of future earnings potential.

That being said, top law schools or top schools for that matter are within reach for low income individuals as long as they clear the entry criteria.This entry criteria is a whole another debate but Lambda and other schools also have an entry criteria.

There are need based scholarships and I think Stanford/MIT/Berkeley offer free tuition if your parents earn less than 100K per annum or something like that. So opportunity is definitely there but then not everyone can make it to Stanford, yes but that doesn't mean you saddle yourself with a huge debt by going to a lower tier school, knowing that your loan repayment capacity will be very low in the initial years of post graduation employment.
I'm sympathetic to this view, but from my experience living in a dense city, I'm effectively consenting to be randomly approached whenever I step outdoors to go in public.

I may not like it, but people regularly approach to ask for money, to sign up for a recurring donation, to sign a petition, to give a flyer, to sell a CD of music (yes, even in modern times), or to give a product sample. I may also get photographed by a street photographer. A small request that can help someone with their problems looks relatively mild compared to most of these other actions.

99% of reviews of M1 talk about video editing and music production. As a programmer I care more about RAM , storage, no reflections display , lightweight laptop long lasting replaceable battery great keyboard trackpad and self service repair.

I hope (but doubt) that the repeated fraudulent studies, the lack of replicable results followed by very strong negative results from more ethical scientists, and the self-serving grift that the HCQ/IVM/Zinc promoters have engaged in is enough to get people to really step back and consider why they believed these charlatans in the first place.

Plenty of ~intelligent people on HN and elsewhere, who would never sign up for a Gwyneth Paltrow detox regime, talked themselves into believing that there was some forbidden knowledge being exposed by these quacks. It was always so transparently silly.
I made the switch from iTerm2 last week and loving how blazing fast kitty is. I also found some kitty.conf files written for iTerm users so I felt right at home pretty quickly.

The only feature I miss from iTerm2 is the ability to maximize a pane (on iTerm the default keybinding is cmd+enter) but I've read the stack layout mode can emulate that on kitty (still need to try it out and get a sense of UX) but it's not a deal-breaker for me.

Hard training may be an essential ingredient of physical excellence, but it is insufficient for true brilliance in any creative field. Jimi Hendrix did have to practice, but he did not become Jimi Hendrix by practicing. You cannot practice your way to that, no matter how much you do.

I don't think Oogway saw that spark in Po at the festival - that was fate and prophecy. But I do think by the cherry blossom scene, he knew what was going on. You don't have to train a lot to reveal a purity and intensity of love that will yield brilliance in time.
As a non-statistician I can tell you this blog is absolutely unconvincing, because it doesn't explain anything about what the test is.

Apparently this test is how likely it is for the same number of people to have the primary diagnosis in each group because all the 1.0 have equal number of patients with that diagnosis or off by 1. Like if they said, we have 8 people with COPD in the first group and then waited for COPD patients to show up at the ER for the second group until they had 8 then you would get a perfect 1.0 match since they made that variable the same? And then the other variables would be randomish, but maybe correlated so more than 0.5?

Maybe you can explain how this layman take is wrong, but if all that's going on is they selected patients with the same diagnoses and didn't make that clear in the paper then I don't understand what the big deal is.
Fellow Picasa user in mourning here.

I have settled on XnView MP [0] as my Picasa replacement in terms of managing my photos locally.

It took a bit of UI + options tweaking to get it close, but it is pretty fast for my purposes (quickly browsing folders of photos). My main image library folder is synced on Dropbox so I can have a nice local version of things on each computer.

It doesn’t do AI stuff, but for photo management it gets the job done.

> But the govt increases debt limit each time, what's the point of having a debt limit then?

I'm not an economist either, but just because the government has repeatedly increased the debt limit doesn't mean that it will always do so. Imagine a bank offering an account holder more and more credit as their earning potential and credit rating increases. That doesn't mean they would offer infinite credit.

A good way of putting the US situation into context is to look at the national debt as a percentage of GDP for various countries in the world.[0] As you can see, there is still some way to go before the US reaches the levels of Portugal, Italy, and Greece (three of the derogatorily named PIGS countries[1]) and a huge gap before reaching the levels of Japan (which admittedly has its own problems[2]).

> taxing wealth over income only makes sense if income taxes go down.

Citation needed. The median US household pays the equivalent of about 8% of their net worth in taxes every year, but billionaires pay a much lower rate by that metric. So if a wealth tax was created for wealth over $100 million, it could be set such that billionaires only feel the same relative burden as the average family.

> in few cycles even that budget will be not enough.

Why do you say that? For some historic context, you can look at how the federal budget has varied over time as a percentage of GDP.[3] "During the 39-year period covered here [1971-2010], federal outlays grew somewhat faster – 0.6% per year – than GDP."

There is nuance in my view, as I believe that the action matters more than the intent.

Putting spiders on people is immoral because it causes psychological distress and potential harm due to spider bites. However, other behaviors are far more reasonable (e.g. asking for their newspaper, for a few dollars, or for a food sample from, say, an ice cream store). In isolation, these other behaviors sound perfectly reasonable in other contexts.

However, I agree with you for some of the other examples in the article (e.g. asking to try on someone's shoes or someone's sunglasses) wouldn't be reasonable or useful in other contexts.

I had a top of the line 2019 MBP docked in a dual-display setup. A YouTube video, a video call, any sort of slightly more demanding workload and the fans would be on full blast. Switch over to the battery and it’d last 2 to 4 hours for typical web dev work.

I picked up an M1 Pro last week and it really has lived up to expectations. It’s silent no matter what I throw at it, far faster, and after 5 hours of use I still have 76% remaining.

The new MBP is as game-changing as everyone claims.
As someone who prefers communicating strictly through text-based virtual media, I wholeheartedly support Mozilla’s message for a better web future. Mozilla’s message reminds us of the importance of keeping the web accessible for users with disabilities, and for people from all backgrounds. What few paltry successes I’ve had in life I owe almost entirely to the internet — internet freedom has had a profound impact on modern life and my life personally, and it deserves the utmost proliferation.

What I look forward to most in the future is discovering — through text-based communities like HN — high-fidelity, open source, native desktop applications, and running them on increasingly open and secure hardware platforms.

Less Javascript, less infinite scrolling, more text. More “native”.
QEMU with TCG can do wonders. It's not perfect but it's surprisingly fast and emulates a good amount of instructions, can do SMP, etc.
You're right that there are definitely some bad actors for cancelling subscriptions, it's really crappy you've had to deal with that! I once had a recurring charge from rackspace that neither myself nor rackspace's support could tell me which account the charges were associated with! Luckily my credit card company was able to put a block on any charges coming from rackspace rather than have to cancel the entire card.

I still think there are way more good companies than bad ones when it comes to cancelling and I do value building a relationship with the companies I patronize.

It is worrying to give so much power to a 3rd party, in this case google, who is notoriously difficult to deal with when an issue arises.

Permissioning/ACLs is something that you really want to get synchronous whenever possible, you don't want caching and pipeline delays if you can help it.

Some maintainer is acting in bad faith, someone else quickly locks them out of all the repositories that they have not yet thought to corrupt, then it looks really really bad if they find out that they still have permission to run the CI/CD scripts, maybe with malicious substitutions, even though you blocked them from being able to push commits up.

The other part of that is, it's not too hard to get right. See what GitHub was doing. People don't change ACLs that often, nowhere near as often as you read them. If they did, you could rate-limit them. And the rest of the problem is, you have one writer and many read copies in one place and you can enforce boundaries on how stale the data gets on the read copies.

Two hard problems, first is cache invalidation.

Of course, they have found out that they are big enough to shard, one would have hoped that they would have found that out in a gentler way, much sooner. But let's not pretend that their architecture makes no sense, it's a fine architecture, they just happened to outgrow it in a bad way.

Sexual harassment issues are a serious matter. They are not discussed online as a throwaway weapon.
They are denounced to the relevant authorities so they can be punished by law. I will always defend anyone doing that even if the claim goes against my person or anyone I love.

If you have chatted with anyone that has really suffered from it, you would know how important is to treat this things properly and not as a weapon to attack a company we don't like.
One thing I like about cryptography, and wish we could get politicians to understand, the mathematical steps to implement many of the core concepts are not hard. Obviously implementing them robustly such that they’re safe at scale is another matter, but “criminals” won’t have any difficulty getting access to secure implementations, and adding any kind of weakness only means that the implementations used by the public are more likely to have bugs, in addition to the legally mandated ones.
I don't want to spend my whole life waiting for a retirement that might never come - I might die, my mental faculties might degrade, even if everything went right I might still burn out.

If I thought I could take a three- or four-year break to study in my thirties or forties without it hurting my career I absolutely would. But employers seem to be suspicious of that kind of thing (unless it's something like a 1-year MBA). So if I want a sabbatical without hurting my earnings too much, a college degree seems like my best option.

Mozilla is still very relevant. Rust was built and, until recently, managed there. They maintain some of the best and accessible documentation about web technologies on the internet.

Firefox is actually pretty good again. They dropped the ball for a while and let Chrome eat their lunch, but I switched back a couple years ago when the whole fiasco that forced users with Google accounts to automatically log in with their browsers occurred. Google eventually added an option after the backlash, but I trust Mozilla's incentive structure more than Google's when it comes to my browser
