Like the choice of ASCII, no matter what gets picked, someone will have a problem with it. Also like EBCDIC/ASCII, no matter who gets there first, it might not win anyway, so just pick something that works for you, explain it well enough to implement it, and open source it when you're done, to increase the odds a bit. Like Ward Christensen did with Modem7, which became XMODEM, which became the Xmodem protocol.
tcsh/csh cannot redirect stderr, there is no '2>'. There is a way but hard for me to remember
> `ls` for example will output unprintable characters, even just space, in quoted form on a terminal:

Pedantic quibble GNU does this for special characters, as in your example the space is very much printable. Specifically this became default with coreutils 8.25 https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/quotes.html
They hiked with torches, and one of them had a laptop named “Wolf’s lair”. Sure, they could be nazis or something, but those things do not exactly prove that.

Point is, no matter how suspicios you think that would look, I would not go as far as declaring it “Nazi dog whistling”.
If India is any indication, you can be certain that Kazakhstan was heavily pressured as well. The statement about Russia definitely reads like someone got scared about something. (Of course everyone here will just say Putin spooked him, when in reality it's probably just one part of the equation).

If I have learned anything in the last couple weeks, it is that the former soviet republics are commodity powerhouses. Kazakhstan exports 50% of the worlds uranium exports. So some people definitely do care what's happening to them. But as always probably less about the population and more about what value it provides.
> OneAPI is focused on [SYCL], which is targeted at C++ and backend agnostic, it does nothing for Fortran

oneAPI L0 supports SPIR-V's OpenCL profile, which is a language agnostic IR.

oneAPI Fortran offload to GPUs is supported with the OpenMP programming model. (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/onea...)

SYCL is one of the programming models supported with oneAPI, OpenMP is also a first-class programming model. You can mix both OpenMP and oneAPI code in the same program too. (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentatio...)

The clearly defined oneAPI L0/OpenCL w/ SPIR-V API boundary also allows for custom programming models w/ 3rd-party compilers.
I agree that identity is important, but I would argue that challenge lies in authn and would be it’s own separate article. This focus was on authz. We are assuming we trust the passed in identity at this point. Eg user has authned, session is established, and we trust that the identity has been passed securely from downstream.

Damn, are you me? I quit my job in IT consulting some years ago and switched to a governement QC posiion. Still, I struggle and with covid and remote working even more.

I often ask myself what`s wrong with me, but I can definately say my mental health is more and more fucked up since I joined the workforce. I always had my fears and insecuriies, but that 9 to 5 lifestyle really pushes me to the edge.

Maybe it really is the wrong job after all.
It’s not moving the goalpost to say that OP’s dismissal of risk (because inverse square law) is imo just a little bit too broad. I know it’s not moving the goalpost because there is no goal. I’m not trying to win or defeat anyone or anything - i’m just trying to talk about an interesting topic.

By the end I wasn't convinced why I should be playing these games. What's status for? Is it going to make you happy?

Alan Watts:

> We thought of life by analogy with a journey, a pilgrimage, which had a serious purpose at the end, and the thing was to get to that end, success or whatever it is, maybe heaven after you’re dead. But we missed the point the whole way along. It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music was being played.

Maybe status gets you a big fancy grave and a televised funeral. Maybe even a "legacy" that can be tracked by structures named after you: ranging from park benches to libraries to aircraft carriers.
A big problem is that if you can run arbitrary code on your transactions, other people can too. This creates the financialization of everything at best. At worst, your access to basic systems is based on your past behavior.
I haven't evaluated this personally but the (close to?) lossless raw sensor image compression from Dotphoton [1] seems like an interesting approach for getting around the issue of sensor noise in image compression. However the implementation details are disappointly vague, as it's a proprietary product.

This is a very interesting comment. At first I found myself in strong agreement with GP (believing people chasing status are probably misguided), but after reading your comment I realized that it might have to do with my current status (independently wealthy in a first world country).

In places like China or India, there is indeed a very big difference in QoL between those who have status and/or social power and those who do not.

That being said, it might be better to change your environment (and the people who you surround yourself with), because that will change your status as TFA outlines — without you having to go out of your way to change who you are and what you do.

Easier said than done when this involves changing countries, but it's a long-term strat.
They could legally move there, but they would be shunned from the community, and indeed it may be hard for them to find someone willing to even sell them a house.
Whoever built them, it's clear it wasn't one people at one time. The architecture diverges quite a bit, the same way nearly all cultures' architecture evolved. Some walls are rough and patched together, some are uniform, some have right angles, some have no right angles, some have gaps, some have no gaps, the sizes and materials vary. You see the same thing from the Mycenaeans and other prehistoric peoples (who also built massive temples and cities out of variously constructed boulders) as their building methods changed.
Text is still a leading way to transfer information efficiently. Browsing websites with big goggles is not fun.

VR is still expensive. Only one provider offers a less expensive, standalone form.

For what purpose is VR to be enjoyed? As a novelty or gaming rig, it's okay. The catalog is small and Balcanized. I can't do my job, network software development, effectively in VR.

2D computer screens are still more convenient for 3D modeling than VR headsets.

Curiously, there's no video call app yet. You'd have to jump through a number of hoops on VRChat to get people into a private session.

Setting up and running the MAME emulation of the Minitel 2
Going into WW2 the depression was still affecting a lot of people. Winning that war put the US on top. While the country reaped the post-victory rewards our government changed. The intelligence community was established. They began to see the US as top dog on the world stage. The the foreign interventions began, starting with Korea, then Vietnam, Central America, The Middle East, and so on.

Eisenhower warned of this new complex of US power in his farewell speech. Kennedy was going to do something about it and severely curtail the CIA. Then, IMO, they killed him for it. True US democracy died with Kennedy. Ever since then the American people have been pushed out of the picture more and more by the military-industrial-academic complex. Today we often refer to these people as the "elites". They are the ones that know better, they know who we should get to vote for, who we should send our sons to go fight for vague "national interests". We are the boiled frogs and our democracy is a dystopian nightmare and they are getting away with it because of petty politics.

Thanks for the kind words! Glad you like it :)
People who grew up in a world where precision craftsmanship requires high tech machines assume anything "ancient" that they can't comprehend could be made without such high tech must therefore have come from aliens/giants/Atlantians/etc.

Anyone who lived in or visited a third world country and watched people produce works of astounding precision and perfect finish with their bare hands will understand that in the 1st world we are just not very capable with our hands since the industrial revolution.

We do not learn how to make physical stuff any more as part of our curriculum growing up.
And everything we use daily is produced by machines.

But the conclusion that thusly anything that you can't imagine creating with your two hands couldn't have been created by someone else's is a fallacy.

I really like e.g. this youtube channel[1] since the creator uses mostly techniques that where available since hundreds of years and you see the results looking often like they came out of a CNC.

Stones that fit together perfectly, so that no even a knife's blade fits in-between them, do not require modern tech to make.

Because that is the entire point of keeping your money in a bank. Those things are all there to prevent other people from defrauding you. In a sense that's also why banks allow you to store money there "for free". This is the service you paid for.

And even if you disagree with that premise, the solution is still not smart contracts because you also don't control those. This is more of the same frustrating conversation. You've named a problem and the solution is assumed to be blockchains but the dots don't connect at all. Don't think that finance companies can't get caught up in a market mania, because we know by now that they're often the worst victims.
there is a large gap between code in matlab typically and stuff you can use in production written in C. this is for example the case with DSP code. so it is a red flag indicating the author is an academic and lacks actual experience writing production code.

This format (or something similar) may work for my project. I’ve designed a set of low color images for a retro TRS-80 computer I own and would like to write a slot machine app for. With its low processing power and my self-imposed requirement to write it in the BASIC language I would have used as a kid, the machine doesn’t have a lot of processing power or memory to do decompression stuff. Some of the concepts here seem simple enough to implement. I can probably reduce it even farther since I have less colors.
Hacker News shouldn't be used as an customer support outrage sink. This just results in heated but uninteresting threads half filled with a pitchfork-wielding mob reacting to clickbait and half filled with people talking them down. Why does everyone who gets banned, demonetized or downvoted on any other social media platform have to come here to complain about it? Do that on Twitter!

There should be a rule against using Hacker News for customer support. Also using Hacker News to talk about sites being up or down.

I would have used the word accepted instead of endured but I think you are trying to say the same thing. Enduring involves fighting or some sort of friction at least - whereas if you can accept that the pain is going to be there you will maybe create some space for yourself and some relief. Hopefully.

I'm sorry you have to go through this but never give up trying to be at ease.

What about the UK?

Mexico is another modern example; it became democratic gradually and peacefully in the late 90s or early 2000s. There was no sudden regime change, and the formerly ruling PRI is still a major political party that runs in the (now fair) elections.
> people are not allowed to move to because they don't have the right last name, or can't trace their lineage to the Mayflower… If you removed these people and put them anywhere else, you'd think of them as low status and strange.

I’ve gotta say, an attitude that someone can’t be your neighbor because their ancestors didn’t have a ticket on some boat is definitely strange, and imo low status, no matter how well read they are.
UX creates context from the users perspective, not the back end data format. This format creates a headache in that nothing can parse or write it except the humans that learn it.

I can easily search an SQLITE file from a CLI (wrote me a tool a long time ago to fuzzy find). I doubt the YAML lib for Python is going to become obsolete soon. I can instantly work with that format on any machine with a common language. There’s already Taskwarrior.

It’s electrons in a machine, hundreds of different paths to porting it around, changing it, etc.

Look, don’t get me wrong; I’m not about to pour sugar down someone’s gas tank. I’m just walking through my inner monologue debating this format someone chose to put up for open review and discussion.
Both. I've got a biology background and have education in ornithology and ecology. I've spent time in the field with a number of species of birds. It's been a while since I've worked with birds, but I've got a solid foundation and am capable of understanding the literature for topics where my memory's lapsed.

Yes, we classify them into categories. I'm trying to figure out how you've managed to convince yourself that ducks and tinamous fall into this special category of terrestrial birds which the experts should obviously know have penises for obvious reasons, but these other birds with the same life history don't fall into this magical category and thus don't have them. What about tinamous and anatids place them in this group which excludes penguins, turkeys, loons, and all of the other birds which are either aquatic or terrestrial and do not have penises?

Edit: I'm also waiting here for you to bring the Rattites into this. I'm a little disappointed honestly. There's some arguments for you to make from that family and I don't know why you haven't brought them up.
I'm not so sure about that. There was a meeting between the EU and Kazachstan just hours ago to increase cooporation.

They also talked about what happened in January: https://astanatimes.com/2022/04/kazakhstan-eu-relations-on-t...

Both of you are right. It's not incumbent on someone grieving to be gracious, and yet choosing grace is better than choosing to react with anger or hurt.
Depends on who you talk to. If it is barely clearing the bar of acceptability for some people, it will likely be considered bad by a lot of people. I don’t really think Apple should be striving for “acceptable” on a $1600 monitor where the webcam is a significant part of the marketing. Apple literally calls it a “sensational camera”.

The display itself doesn’t even have any kind of local dimming zones or HDR at all, which seems like a huge miss for a monitor released at that price point in 2022.

I played with one at an Apple Store a few days ago. I loved the build quality of the height adjustable model, and the screen was pleasant to use in that well lit environment (a relatively low bar to clear), but Apple seems to have worked overtime to make it hard to justify spending $1600+ on that monitor, in my opinion.

There have been rumors of a Studio Display Pro, and I’m curious to see what happens there.
Yes. Waterfowl have hollow bones. They may be denser than a hummingbird's, but that does not mean they are solid.

Raptors have a slower heartbeat than hummingbirds. That is true. What does that have to do with any of this?
Who decides “appropriate”?

Drop the “or” clause and you might have a valid point. But then, this means dressing people in blue or pink or any other kind of gender stereotype carries risk. “Let them choose” vs. “There is no choice” or “I’ll tell you what you are” is very thin ice.

Or are you just saying that most Americans are religious or social bigots?

My general take has been that Blockchain is a genuine innovation, but one that is inferior to existing technologies in nearly every respect. It's going to be similar to the Wankel engine or the Tesla turbine historically. Yes it technically *works* but the disadvantages outweigh the benefits of adoption at commercial scale.

Because Apple stuff is basically guaranteed to be excellent. I’m over playing the lotto with whatever washed out garbage Acer/HP/Lenovo/BenQ/whatever want to put out for a monitor these days. Whatever Apple has been doing in the last ten years with their panels is great and I’ll stick with it. The panel on my ‘21 MBP (M1 Pro) is the best screen I’ve ever laid eyes on.

That’s easy: safety and regulation.

I am happy for the bank to control the code which determines how my money moves, because bugs are a thing, all code has bugs, and if the code that moves my money has bugs, the bank is responsible and I get my money back.

I’m happy for my bank to control the interface, because fraud is a thing and the interfaces they offer are sufficient for my needs. Besides, my real money management is in financial planning, and I have spreadsheets under my own control for that.

I’m happy for the bank to enact restrictions (imposed by my government) on where I send my money because global politics are a thing and monetary sanctions are a powerful alternative to war.

In short, the benefits of centralized control have far outweighed the negatives.
