The author mentions it, and I highly recommend anybody interested in build systems read the seminal paper Build Systems A La Carte [1], which breaks down various build systems (including Excel!) into their component concepts, and along the way finds a new feature-space that hadn't been explored.

I’m basically a Stalinist relative to the community here, but among those listed, only Uber and Facebook would fall into don’t-work-for-them-territory.

The others are regularly criticised to varying degrees, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to work there for people somewhat conscious of their conscience. It comes down to the question “can you honestly expect to have an impact on the organisation, or is it more likely to hollow you out and make you into another one of their cynical libertarian defenders?”

This happens to be exactly the same misunderstanding as calling all criticism “cancel culture”.
Does this mean Higgs particles might be more complicated than we thought? Or, there is more than one?
I've been reading a lot of Chinese novels and web comics. Discovering new genres based on chinese mythos, fresh takes on western fantasy and japanese manga tropes, and all the weird and wonderful new types of story has been a lot of fun.

Censorship over the last few years has changed the scene a lot. It is now very hard to tell a political intrigue story for instance, and gay themes are apparently heavily censored. This has been really sad to see, and I can't see many of my favourites (even fantasy/sci-fi classic 'release that witch', which is quite pro-chinese but essentially about a rebellion in the first half) being written today.

Nationalistic themes seem to be encourage, and there are rumours authors are told to include them so that the censors accept other parts of their story. These range from racist diatribes to chapters just showing how bad life is in america or japan. People say they are equivalent to every fantasy japanese protagonist showing their new world how great japanese cooking is, but it's really not the same thing at all - less pro, more anti. I think this will be the biggest barrier to popularity in the west.

Tencent has a massive amount of IP in this area, and an anime studio, and I had expected Chinese pop culture to be exported in much the same way as manga finally really saturated the west in the late 2000s. After the changes of the last few years, I don't see that happening.

Nutshell summary of the post:

Instead of relying on modification-time comparisons between dependency and target output, use hashes of the relevant "ingredients" of building a target (cmdline, arguments, meta-data about input files etc.).
I wish all that grant money was spent on trying to cure the underlying diseases.
The UX between a A4 desktop printer and a receipt printer is different, this is almost in the realm of a practical solution to a real tech problem (almost).

Also, not speaking for others but I enjoyed it because it's a great example of the hacker mindset and their willingness to write a blogpost to share it with others made my day slightly better.
The flip side is also true: technology enables abuses of power to exist faster than the laws can be enforced.

It was based on Telepathy https://telepathy.freedesktop.org/. None of the built-in backends for XMPP, SIP, Skype and cellular calls used libpurple. (A libpurple-based backend could be installed from the community app repo.)
This sort of stuff (generating 3D assets from photographs of real objects) has been common for quite a while via photogrammetry. NeRFs are interesting because (in some cases) they can create renders that look higher quality with fewer photos, and they hint at the potential of future learned rendering models.
I get where you're coming from and why you might suggest that. However I do happen to work on those kinds of codebases and if there was even a .00000001 percent chance of _death_ by using my software I'd make sure it didn't go out the door. No question. It's possible to work smart not hard and avoid entire classes of issues like manifested in the link I posted above.

As-is Medicine / Aviation and other such "mission-critical" real-time / life threatening industries do take this sort of thing very seriously. Programming has come a long way since the 80s and at least in aviation I'm aware that code undergoes audits to ensure that things like dynamic allocations / malloc aren't done at all in critical sections of the code. Lots of limitations are placed on software run in those environments and it's justified and warranted.
Applying this argument to the US dollar when it was gaining value relative to many other currencies before the current inflationary spat is illustrative. Probably all of us held USD during that time, but that act in itself wasn't productive. The increase in value came from the underlying institution of the US Treasury being perceived as more trustworthy than other similar international institutions. The distinction to make is between the minor deflation of USD and the absolutely massive deflation of BTC over the same time period. I think everyone would agree there is some value to a decentralized proof of work transaction ledger, but $50k USD is clearly the result of some mania (rational or otherwise). That "some value" should therefore be reflected in a positive price, even if that number is orders of magnitude less than the current astronomical price.

> No bullshit, devs willing to devote 80, 100 hours per week, no management overhead as they KNOW what they are going to do.

Yes, I think nowadays there is rightly a reluctance to do this sort of thing without either an ownership stake or very high compensation - neither of which are common in the gaming industry.
I was in the situation of trying to "steal" my own car after a cat knocked the keys in the trash without me noticing.

I could get in the car, but it was not possible with the security system enabled without a currently working chipped key to program a new one without the dealership to do some I think cryptographic pairing of a new key to the car.

I could start the car and it would after one second shut itself off after buying a replacement key and tried many things with many scan tools before giving up and getting towed to the dealer.

There might be some sort of cracked tools out there but I was not able to find them, or get a straight answer if the very expensive software packages out there could actually solve the situation.
I used the key from my 84 Accord to get into my 98 Integra when I locked the keys in it. Similarly, my 89 Accord would unlock using pretty much any other Honda key. One day, I locked myself out of my 81 Accord... but it uses the short, old school style Honda keys, so I didn't have another car to take keys from to try... so I called a locksmith. He comes out and goes "Oh I haven't done one of these in a while..." pulls a blank key out of his toolbox, sticks it in the door tumbler, and opens it right up.

So now I have an 80 and an 81 Accord... and I have also interchanged keys between them. The 80 doesn't open as easily, as I think it's less worn out. But there's practically no security on these old Hondas.

Yeah I switched away from Wire again due to constant notification issues (yes battery saving options are disabled on Android). My session has since timed out and trying to log back in on either mobile or desktop just causes the app to crash.

Also there's no Matrix bridge for Wire compared to Signal.

The multi-account support was nice and is something I'd really love to see in Matrix.

Bluntly society exists to serve current and future generations. All future generations are predicated on a nuclear family. No significantly large human cultures without a basis around a nuclear family have survived from an evolutionary perspective.

For society to continue to exist it needs to primarily serve and be determined by people who meet, have kids, and form a nuclear family. While there are societies that do not do this they do not last more than a generation or two at the most.

While good societies should be inclusive and welcoming of non paired or alternative lifestyles they by definition need to remain alternative for society to continue to flourish or else the society dies as its members do.

We already have a birth rate below replacement rate. Societies where that is the trend typically do not last long either and have some fairly bad outcomes while they disappear.
It isn't my responsibility to help "lonely young men" meet people. Just go to a bar/meetup/church and start talking. That's an individual's responsibility to socialize.
It’s just one dude moderating all of HN. I’m not dang but I’m guessing that, unless a claim is easily verifiable within five seconds, it’s not worth keeping around - safer to wait until a reputable news outlet publishes the claim and rely on their expertise instead.
Multiply the volume traded per day by the average strike price (or last strike price). Compare that to the total market cap.
Also, games and warfare are opposites in most ways:

Games are activities with rules, designed to establish fairness (which is desired by participants), be fun, and they have essentially zero stakes - when the game ends, everyone is the same as when they started.

Warfare has (almost) no rules, by definition; warfare is where civilization and rules have failed. Nobody wants fairness; you don't seek a fair fight, you seek to massacre the enemy soldiers (or they surrender); and the stakes couldn't be higher - life and death for you, your friends, and possibly your loved ones and your entire society. Make a wrong decision in warfare and you don't lose a game - the person next to you is dead and maybe many more.

Humans perform very differently in those situations. Handling the stress of the latter is a major part of warfare.
> It's not because that any black people are actually more affected by "profiling" than by their class situation.

It's impossible to look at racial disparities in sentencing, qualitatively or quantitatively, and think this. The research is clear: The absolute richest black people get accused and sentenced like working-class white people. Working-class black people get treated like sub-humans.

> They're quite simply on the side of the owning class, even though they're not owners.

The most successful revolutionary leftist movements in the modern west are those taking up racial issues, from SNCC and the Black Panthers onwards.

> Black or white, the odds have to be 90%+ that the last "or else" order you obeyed was delivered under a wage-based threat.

The intensity of "else" in an "or else" order matters. Worrying about "the most recent one" is pure sampling bias. That's exactly the problem; the median worst case for working-class white leftists is losing their job. For others, regularly, it's their life.

I beg you, read some books by black, female, and queer leftists. They have good ideas.

> And that's reddit... where there are no conservatives left.

I don't know if that's true. I'd always hear Reddit was more conservative than most other sites.

I've noticed that people of every political alignment think that social media is biased against them. In truth, both sides have prominent figures who would have been banned years ago if they weren't famous enough to get an exception from the rules, both sides have people banned for no good reason, and both sides have people banned for good reasons that they don't think are good reasons. A nuanced study of whether one side is more affected than the other would never survive the heated environment of political social media.

> Ctrl + F "gay": 0 results. Ctrl + F "homo": 0 results.

True and entirely irrelevant. It is easy to make a law that targets a group without directly naming them.

> Do kids younger than 8 years old need to know about sexual orientation?

"Straight" is also a sexual orientation. It is not possible for a child to avoid fairy tales where a prince marries a princess, or ads with a husband and wife in them, or cartoons where a boy and a girl have a crush on each other. So they're gonna know about that one. On the other hand, they might be able to make it to age 8 with minimal exposure to gay couples if their parents are conservative.

Really, it's about whether teachers will be allowed to read a children's book featuring a gay couple to the class. If the principal gets a letter from a lawyer saying a teacher gave age-inappropriate instruction on sexual orientation to first graders, and cited the line of the law forbidding it, then it doesn't matter if the principal supports the teacher. Nor that the "instruction" was just reading a children's book that featured a gay couple; legally, it would likely be considered instruction. Nor that it was entirely age-appropriate; that exception is so vague as to be useless. They can't afford to defend themselves in a lawsuit. So they get rid of the book to make the lawsuit go away. End result is all the books about gay people get thrown out and, if history feels poetic, burned.

(I would also like to note that it has language about requiring schools not to withhold information about the child's health from their parents that seems designed to out transgender and gay children to their parents against their wishes; it too has an exception too vague and limited to be useful.)
Exactly. They are general purpose computers, artificially crippled by their manufacturer, to prevent their (supposed) owner from using their full potential.

I would recommend you to read capitalist realism first. It's about 120 pages and not the most complicated essay.

The main idea of fisher is how we seem to have lost the ability to envision futures that are not basically less evil versions of capitalism. Which manifests in depression and odd melancholy of futures of the past.
Aha... it seems I've been lied to! It seems the proof of correctness is for a binary graph (each node has an out-degree of at most 2, but cycles are allowed in the graph) and needs 2 extra bits of state per node. [0][1]

Now, one can represent any higher-degree graph as a binary graph by simply replacing any higher-degree nodes with a binary tree with the required number of out-nodes, but then that increases the number of extra bits required.

Gries's 2006 less formal writeup [1] is simple to extend to higher-degree nodes. Instead of his 2-bit counter, one can use a counter that goes from 0 to the number of out-links. My guess is that real implementations use tagged pointers to indicate which pointer has been reversed instead of using a counter in Gries's write-up.

I feel so lied to! No wonder I couldn't figure out how to do it without tagged pointers! Though, please correct me if you find a pointer reversal algorithm that doesn't use tagged pointers and is guaranteed to terminate in the case of arbitrary graph cycles.

I believe repeating the test is standard procedure for many tests - if the first one is positive. However the repetitions are usually temporally separated (in some cases intentionally, in others because the test takes time.) This is effective in those cases because although there are a lot of temporary causes for a false positive to spike, there are fewer where it's persistent.
Ah, you're right, sorry. I naively assumed rqlite would cope with similar dataset sizes to sqlite itself, which I think is likely to be limited by how much disk you can put on a single node. But it seems rqlite is much more limited on that dimension, so it doesn't fit your criteria.
I'm assuming it attenuates the signal so that someone parked nearby has a more difficult time capturing the code. Downside is you can't use your remote start from inside the house anymore - you'll have to be very close before the remote will work (which raises the question of what good is having a remote if you're close enough to just use the physical key). But with the faraday pouch, at least the car won't have been stolen.

For the MITM attacks on the modern proximity car keys, drop your fob into a metal tin (like the Danish Butter Cookie ones) when you walk in the house to block the signal.

There is no excuse for such a low charge rate, considering the vehicle is a plug-in hybrid and has more than enough battery capacity to charge a phone!

After ICQ and QIP, Trillian was the way to go for me. Unfortunately the inability to use facebook without being constantly banned forced me to switch to Element. And while Element and Matrix is cool, it still doesn't come close to Trillian. Emotes are not customizable, theming is harder, and the amount of things u can do with history is endless compared to Element. Overall I feel like Element is more like Teams and missing features for power users. The search functionality and working with many attachments in element is very tedious, no way to search in them, sort them, filter them... I hope they can improve on that, I have over 500k messages and history feels useless thanks to that.

OK, maybe there's something to being able to catch yourself when falling, or prevent the fall in the first place through grip strength. But this:

> It's not just bracing yourself. Scientists have linked stronger hands to healthier hearts.

> One study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine found that higher grip strength was correlated to lower blood pressure, lower blood sugar and higher good cholesterol levels.

Has to just be grip strength correlating with activity level and general health, not grip strength causing any of that.
You literally just make something up and call it facts, how dare you.
Many of the points brought up are completely valid but they're also heavily biased and often lack critical examination. Meaning, they take a stance of skeptic to the article but don't use the same bar for themselves.

They purposefully take ungenerous interpretations of statements to build straw man arguments then accuse the article of making straw man arguments. They bring up studies and articles contradicting claims in the piece then dismiss the studies brought up in the piece as being ambiguous because they don't have more rigor. Often, the comments are nothing more than snide remarks deriding the claims without any citations while at the same time writing "citation needed" for various other parts of the article.

As I said, there are many fair points in this criticism but this critique, and other pieces like it, are, in my opinion, not really trying to pursue the truth, they're written to cater to an audience that wants to dismiss cryptocurrency outright.

> started working out of college during the pandemic

* Caveat: remote-only, during the pandemic, right out of college would probably be the worst of all possible worlds

Most of the things that people like about WFH are contingent on being in a later stage of your career (college + 5 years?). Having a place with multiple rooms. Having something of a physical social network. Having self-confidence in your abilities, based on prior performance. Knowing how to navigate office politics.

Plus, most of the things you would be doing at that stage were interrupted: bars, clubs, etc.

Which is to say, you're absolutely right, and I agree with your perspective. But it does get better. But I'm sure that's cold comfort.

A more articulate, and less rageful version of my original post would probably have been "I believe we Americans are (and were!) doing badly at creating opportunities for adult friendships and socialization, and I would rather we aspire to improve things vs going back to the way they were."
