> What do you write in them that you didn't already mention during the daily standing meetings, the biweekly retrospective, the team meetings, the company meetings, or the Slack channels at the time they were relevant?

Well I would rather write up weekly summaries and cut down on meeting time. Daily standup is not a time for summary. It's a time to check to see if people are blocked. If no one is blocked, you go back to work.
Im not trying to write off all charity and volunteerism, my comment is about myself and the problems I have trying to help others, I simply noticed that how I was trying to help wasn't helping.

For example you'r comment to "Get real" what does that mean? I assume you don't think I am a robot I assume you mean it as genuinely trying to help in the way you might tell an addict to get real or grow up its a platitude telling them to stop doing the thing they know is bad.

A few years ago I would have agreed with you but I have had a realisation about the way I try to help people, does it help them?

Will they stop being addicted? probably not, most likely they have heard it before and will just take offence at being talked down to they will double down on the bad behaviour out of spite.

Does it help me? When I tell people to grow up it boosts my ego makes me feel like I know what I am talking about, like their problems are so easily solved if only they where on my level of understanding.

When I realise that my style of help, helps no one and nothing but my ego is it really help? No it's not, its simply me being arrogant.

When I realise that my style of help is no help at all should I continue to subject people to it? No it's not helpful to do so, I don't need my ego stroked and I don't want to hurt others with my good intentions.

This doesn't mean that I am agains't helping others I simply realised a problem with how I specifically was trying to help others, I was just trying to boost my ego.

I wish I could claim this realisation as my own but in truth it was pointed out to me. If some one pointed out that your idea of help was the same as mine could you accept this realisation or would you become resentful?

Well the best way to reap the benefits of your experience is to run your own company. Not screwing yourself over with BS tech is a competitive market advantage. However you might need to hire people so you can’t pick something too old.

Working for other people it’ll mostly net you less on call headaches.

>France doesn’t do mail-in voting, early voting or use voting machines en masse like the United States.

I get not doing mail-in-voting but what's wrong with early voting? I remember there was a huge line in front of the french embassy here last elections because there's no exception to that rule for expats. For a city like Montreal with a lot of French immigrants it means a single vote office for thousands of people.

Compare that to the US where you can email your vote in a lot of states if you live overseas... and it becomes clear that access to vote is just not a priority for France.

We interpreted this much differently. I think everyone has to shake hands with an odd number of people not just any single person. It's everyone wins or no one does.
Off-topic, but do you mean "biased" when you say "based"? I feel like I'm in some parallel universe because I swear for the last 6 months I've not seen a single person spell biased right.

> I'm of the belief that hardware is not truly preserved until you have a fully-accurate emulation of it.

This makes sense in principle, but exact emulation is something computationally prohibitive even for a (probably) 386¹. The computational problems of exact emulation have been described in a famous article about emulating the SNES².

I suppose that emulating even "just" a superscalar architecture is going to be prohibitive (due to the split into micro ops), and an out-of-order one would probably require transistor-level emulation (or at least, another, lower, level of emulation).

¹=Fairly arbitrary; I'm basing this just on the complexity of emulating the SNES, and the following considerations.

And the last several months? Hopefully you can see what I’m getting at. A job doesn’t exist if there is no observable output to it, at least not for long. Your manager would know if for those months you were supposed to be reading docs, that you were actually slacking off, because come time to implement the thing, you wouldn’t have been able to do it. Thus needing to spend another few months reading documentation, and there definitely is a cutoff point where if you have been reading documentation for many months and producing no output, you just get axed.

Incidentally, another reason for managers to be capable ICs. If your manager was getting frustrated with your speed at executing, he/she could always step in and “show you how it’s done,” or at least teach you about Bluetooth details themselves to spare you from having to spend time reading the docs.

Otherwise, they don’t really have a leg to stand on and it’s just shouting into the void like Vizzini yelling at his giant to climb up the cliffs faster.

> How were they denying it?

"It's not us", "we have no idea", "our tests show we're clean" works for a shockingly long time in modern Western societies - the government has to prove that it is indeed 3M or whoever else who causes the pollution, and government agencies usually tend to take time until an investigation is complete. And even then, offenders can file a lawsuit... and until that lawsuit is finished and unappealable, it can take many years if not decades. And during that time, everyone claiming that a specific company is an offender is under severe risk of a defamation lawsuit.

We definitely need reforms both in staffing of regulatory agencies as well as in defamation lawsuits in cases of environment or labor offenses.
I use a plugin called "idontcareaboutcookies" to not see them because I don't want anything requiring interaction just to read stuff anywhere

The internet used to have pop ups in the early 2000s, until popup blockers and then the Mozilla browser came. Then we had over a decade of no pop-ups. Then Europe decided to make the internet a worse place by requiring websites to put something that's essentially a pop-up (the cookie notices) on them by law. I've seen enough pop ups in the early 2000s, so no thank you to them today.

I don't understand why Europe decided to make the web a worse place like this, because it's competing with apps, and apps can violate privacy much more than websites afaik

Running your own DNS resolver doesn't give you any of the benefits that using DoH does. The recursive queries that it sends out are just as vulnerable to an adversary on the network blocking or spying on as the ones sent to a regular insecure DNS server.

The demand for me to subscribe to notifications is 1000x more than my supply of time to attend to them.

I'm sure there are reasons notifications are useful. I like to get one when a 20 minute compilation is over or when something I posted to HN has dropped off the "new" page and won't compete with my next posting.

The fact though is I am already assaulted with spam, even reputable brands want to send me multiple emails a day even though there is no way I am going to engage them that frequently.
It allows us to leverage domain expertise much more quickly and efficiently. Since we we can extrapolate from just a handful of examples, we can "solve" the easy parts of the dataset and get to "the crux" of the labelling problems much faster. The app also allows data scientists to interact deeply with the data in a way that is productive and meaningful, as it forces you to think like a model. This ultimately leads to faster model development cycles.

In a way, the weak labels generated are just a nice bonus for us!

Steel manufacturing emissions are indeed enormous, but can be significantly curtailed, especially if you're willing to accept higher steel prices as a result (or of course regardless, if you have carbon pricing so that existing techniques are expensive)

High prices also incentivize re-use and re-cycling. If it's cheaper to buy brand new steel beams and drop the ones from the old building into a landfill, that's what people will do, but if that costs twice as much, the new building will have old (or at least recycled) beams, same way England is full of houses that are say 150 years old but have 200 year old timber because timber was expensive then and so they re-used it.

Ultimately, even if our society insists on ignoring the crisis, Mother Nature isn't fooled, our borders will be overwhelmed by people fleeing the destruction of their homes, in many places summer temperatures will be unbearably hot, and all this acts as a permanent reminder that we fucked up, which can't help but spur (even if belated) policy change.

From what I've seen of the emulation community, I can only think it's because many emulators are small enough that they're feasible for a single person to work on and maybe get too attached to.

> - maybe the authors liked the restrictions that come with AGPLv3 (if you use a modified version on a server, we want the modified source code "back")

It's not a restriction, and it's not about the upstream author: the modifications are available to every user (so they can be sure what is done with their data, as one example). As any GPL, this is about user rights, not developer rights.

> - maybe the authors haven't thoroughly checked the AGPLv3 and weren't aware of this particular clause, or actually decided they could add limitations anyway

I'm betting on this one. AGPL makes sense if you want to force anyone using your software to release their enhancements to their users. You, as the original author, retain the right to license it under a different license to your own users (so they don't get the exact source code to the services they are using remotely).

Picking a license is hard and should be done carefully, because the license you pick can have permanent effects on what you can do with your own software.

Home prices will just go down soon so that average monthly payment for new buyers stays about the same as for the old ones with "high home price" + "low rate" combo. Of course, in a transition period a handful of people will be unlucky enough to be stuck with "high home price" + "high rate" combo.

Thanks, I've never encountered that paper before.

You a right, they get a 190-360x overhead, and on today's CPUs, I think I need need to get it down to about 20-30x overhead to get realtime on current CPUs. It's only off by a single order of magnitude.

Though, it would be fast enough for some usecases. 10% of realtime would be bearable for some TAS usecases.

It might be possible for me to improve on what they have. For starters, they aren't using a trace-based approach and I think they are applying the memorisation on every single branch, correctly predicted or not, and every single memory access (even when they hit L1). But I would need a 10x improvement over what they had, and that's a big ask.
There's quite a few actually. In the hero image, "Documentation Exlporer"; "variable" needs to be pluralized in the "Automatic renaming" section; conversely "documentations" should be singular in the "Dependancies" (sic) bit you pointed out - this is probably non-native English usage as that pattern appears throughout; "different matches" not "difference matches" under multi find; I'm seeing some stretched images in Safari under the Minimap section; and finally when you download it the .dmg is called "Zzas editor"!

Saying all this to be helpful, not snarky or nitty. It's early days and some missing polish is to be expected on the marketing side. I absolutely love that I this exists and that there's another native choice alongside Sublime (which is decently ok for Rust), I'm super excited to see it grow and once I figure out how to upgrade my Mac Pro to OSX 11 then I'll be trying it out.

Congrats to the developer and I wish the team long success.

For the Intel chips up to and including the Pentium 4 licensing a chipset would not be an issue. VIA made chipsets back when those products were new. I think there was a lawsuit about it, but VIA prevailed. You could license the chipset from them, then use it with an authentic Intel CPU.

But to your original point: CPUs don't really fail unless abused is my understanding. The bad ones are filtered out at the factory before they ever get to consumers.

How many elections occur at the same time in France?

I've heard that in European elections, you tend to vote for one person at a time, where in the US, it's pretty routine to vote for three or more. (In presidential years, you vote for presidential electors, a representative, and 2/3 of the times a senator, and then beyond that there are state and local elections.)

I'm wonder how much of the difference comes from counting one versus multiple elections at the same time.
In Canada, the govt is pulling the brakes via policy (foreign buyer ban, non-resident tax, etc.) amid the rise in rates. Unlike the US, we have max 5 year fixed rate mortgages for the most part. The govt initiatives are a drop in the bucket but the impact of rate increases is very concerning. On the flip side, govt policies are fueling the fire as they help first time buyers with more tax incentives. I wonder if anyone in charge passed econ 101.

As others have commented, the rate increase in the US is nuts. People were paying the max monthly payments their income would give them in some markets (e.g. Bay area). With rates doubling so fast, I worry about fiscal solvency of anyone who did not get a long-term locked rate.
> No, they're asking for consent to track because the EU demanded it.

Personally, I think that despite seemingly good intentions, this common practice is counterintuitively harming user-privacy and security, especially on mobile where the banners take up a large chunk of the screen.

Many normal people get something like "banner-blindness": they are so used to seeing banners requesting confirmation when they visit a website that they by default click any random buttons they see to try and hide them right away without reading what is requested.

This practice doesn't really help anybody, IMO, and should probably be handled on the browser-level if people care about it.
