No, there is actual truth in the world. It is ridiculous to put our heads in the sand and believe in this post-truth stupidity.

Even in cases where we can’t be sure like perhaps this one, we can infer things. The result with the least number of presuppositions is the likely actual occurrence as per Occam’s razor.

Which require more presupposition, that a forward going army killed people on the roads, or that a country brought their own dead on the street, possibly clothed them up as civils or whatever and placed them neatly there?

Also, do look at the satellite pictures and BBC’s debunk on the ridiculous claims of Russian propaganda.
I get Netflix through my cell phone carrier, otherwise I would drop it. I don't watch a lot of content, and I find myself watching HBO Max more often when I do.

With that being said, I might still buy some $NFLX. I thought that they were dead once before with the whole Qwikster thing, but investing in the company then would have been a very smart move.
>some really good shows

That they almost always cancel after two seasons regardless of popularity or story progression. As a result, lots of people are wary of starting to watch anything new on Netflix since it's almost guaranteed to be cancelled prematurely.

It wouldn't look much like what you'd expect C to look like. If it did decompile back to idiomatic C it could introduce some kind of aliasing bug along the way that'd make it not so memory safe.
I'm bummed that The Old New Thing is now on Microsoft's domain. Old blogs seems to be dying out or being moved behind the walls of Medium/Substack/etc.
Wow, I’m an American and I’ve never heard anyone say anything like this before. I wonder if it’s some ISP marketing this to their customers in their locale?
Why not just have one streaming service at a time? Each has an absurd amount of content so just switch it up every few months. You get to watch everything and it’s super inexpensive.

Sports are trickier of course.
Yeah try reconfiguring a remote firewall with breaking changes and therefore new behavior without OOB access. Don’t make a single mistake or you could be traveling hours/days.

Good luck with your “reading” now that the breaking changes have made hundreds of online tutorials, articles, books etc that would guide you obsolete and wrong.
AFAIK the inspiration was done in an indirect manner, S-Geometry -eventually- became Mirai which ended up at Izware which used the same representation (winged edge) for the 3D objects and perhaps algorithms to write Nendo but that one seemed to be in C++ (by checking out the executables in the demo[0] which is basically the only thing still available of all that nowadays) and Wings3D was really a clone of Nendo (made because the authors couldn't buy it - there was a post about it from around mid-2000s or so in a 3d modelling forum but i can't find it due to all the SEO google spam :-/).

There are a few videos with Mirai on YouTube and if you compare it with Nendo you'll see that Wings3D is much closer to Nendo than Mirai.

wow they make that much revenue? probably would buy this dip then. $30bn ARR trading at a $96bn marketcap/valuation and they’re profitable!? uhhh say less!
Whilst things like Westway are an abomination, the other parts of London's road structure are little better. I used to live just off the South Circular, which is a road system in notion only - there are almost no dual carrige-ways, and the route simply joins up a lot of suburban minor roads. The North Circular is somewhat better (unless you live next to it), but not much.
I have a digitakt and with the right cable and a standard powerbank its easily enough for some train rides or sitting outside
The closest thing to a viable use case for airship cargo is the one Cargolifter was aiming for, getting objects too big for roads to landlocked destinations. And the challenge that comes with that was illustrated quite well by Cargolifter: starting with a small craft and sizing up with experience is impossible because for loads fitting a road ground based transport will always win. (I'm sure that CL160 would have changed the economics of wind power forever, but they were too early for that use case to materialize)
> Sadly in Europe a lot of these transactions are done on debit cards, which make redress much harder if not impossible - once the money is out of the account, it's gone for good.

While this is true, it's also much harder to do a fraudulent payment. The card number itself is not enough; you actually have to go through the bank's payment system with its 2FA, and that's not something a thief can easily fake.

From the perspective of trying to keep companies from doing this in the future, that's not really relevant. Trivago gets hurt just as much of the money ends up with the government or with the customers.

Not that I'm against customers getting it, but if you look at it from a straight-forward "give incentives for companies to not follow Trivago's example" perspective, then fining them is enough to accomplish that.
This is silly :)

I worked in telecom near y2k, and even that time, fiber equipment was prohibitively expensive for wide usage.

Yes, it was totally ready to adopt in large enterprise environments, or at large backbones, but internet is not just backbones.

As example, in 1999 i participated in building fiber ring across Kiev (Ukraine), but at my own apartment, I used dialup; in 2003 i bought subscription to wireless network (yes, from backbone to my home); in 2005 i switched to Docsis copper network; in 2011 homenet, in which links to buildings where optic single mode, and inhouse connections 100% copper; and in 2013 manager said me "we will never sell gigabit to apartment", but in 2014 I have seen ads about fiber gigabit.

Yes, I understand that Britain is rich empire, but even Britain could not spend so much money without real demand.
I do have many vegan friends (been vegan for more than a decade) and none have issues with their teeth! I wonder if the issue was more with what you were eating as a vegan rather then a plant based diet.
Thanks John! Very interesting.

What your simulation includes and the original article didn't (and I didn't touch at all in my article) is the statistical reliability of the tests they administered. Where you got a CC of -0.38 you used equal reliability (/ unreliability) of the skill tests and self-assessments. You can see that as you increase the test reliability, the CC shrinks and the effect disappears.

I have no idea what's the actual reliability of the DK tests, they do seem to consider that but maybe not thoroughly enough. In my view it's very fair to criticize DK from that angle. But that would require looking at the actual tests and their data.

My point being, that any purely random analysis is based on assumptions that can easily be tweaked to show the same effect, the opposite effect, or no effect at all.
Yeah, I am making my Amazon web crawler/scraper now. It’s the tags that are tricky.

Regarding “gift male” I am actually going in the opposite direction. I want to stay away from generic and try to go unique. For instance, a few people have put in “3D Printing” as tags for their husbands so I have been scraping ideas that might be agnostic of the 3D printer model they have. Reddit has been a huge help!

When you are getting a gift that's not for you, you're probably not into "their thing" nearly as much. So product discovery is kind of what you need.
I don't understand most of it, but boy, so gorgeously built!

I do not like the way the text scroll just ‘jumps’ ahead when scrolling down after the header picture. The title has disappeared above your screen before you have time to read it. It reminds me of the Apple product pages, whereby your scroll is constantly hijacked by spinning pictures of laptops opening and closing.
Some of Tokyo's elevated highways are an aesthetic disaster; the one that goes very low over the Nihonbashi bridge is the classic example. On the bright side they are finally planning to move that particular expressway underground...

Masks weren't invented 2 years ago. Maybe there is some subtle form of harm but if it was seriously bad we would have already known.
Public transport into/in London is pretty good. Crowded but not unbearable, especially if you can avoid rush hours.

I have a car in London but almost never drive into central London (just in my area and out of London) - getting in and around Central London is much better with public transport.
You're going against the spirit of the guidelines of discourse for this community. Please take a look at them here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

In particular, you'd do well to look at these three guidelines:

> Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

> "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."

> Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

Your comments are snarky, dismissive, shallow and presume bad faith. Rather than engage with curiosity and thoughtfulness, you put words that were never said into the mouths of others, so you ultimately are not adding anything to the conversation. Maybe this is the standard of discourse on Twitter or Reddit, but it doesn't rise to HN's level of discourse.

I'm not going to make a value judgment one way or another here, but I'll just say this -- if you can't explain what you really think without belittling others, people won't think it's because you're smarter than them. They will think it's because you have nothing to say (or you're too lazy to put in the effort into saying something) and you're afraid of that being made obvious.
There’s a comment on Raymond’s post that explains it in a plausible-sounding way:

https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20220418-00/?p=10...

Table-based exception-handling metadata requires function prologue/epilogue sequences to have constrained forms that can be described by that metadata. When NT was first designed for x86-32, there was a lot of existing asm code that people wanted to easily port over to NT, and that ported code included pretty much every weird function entry/exit sequence you could think of (and lots more that you wouldn’t imagine anyone would ever think of). Switching to table-based metadata would have required modifying all that code, making porting more difficult. At least, I assume that’s the reasoning – I was deeply involved in the SEH runtime code in the ’90s and ’00s when I was on the VC++ compiler team.
I'm paying for a Netflix account that's shared between 4 of my friends. If they crack down on account sharing, I certainly won't continue subscribing and I doubt my friends would either.

Thanks for the feedback! No account creation necessary. Just an app download.

I know that with Flutter you can also make web apps so I'll see how hard it is to switch it to a web version to lower the barrier to entry even further.

Not owning any of the Elektron boxes aside from the model cycles (which doesnt seem quite the same to me in that regard), this is really interesting. Its basically how I currently use Renoise, but it always feels like a bit of a hack and very much so not how its "supposed to be used", so maybe something like this or a Digitone would be a perfect fit for me

I almost feel like we didn't read the same article. I felt like the author spoke very simply. He just didn't have a clear point he was trying to express, which I believe is valid criticism.

Given that his book is plugged in the first line, I figure this article is intended simply to advertise more copies of his book. While it does have interesting nuggets of knowledge, such as the initially unimpressive teenager having the most engaging questions, it is competing with many more compelling reads.
I think there's so much content that even with a very low hit rate, there's more than enough to entertain yourself to death. For example, the 18 hour Vietnam War documentary by Ken Burns is itself enough to burn a month or so of TV time.
"States' rights" is now a loaded term because it is inextricably intertwined with the historical revisionism around the Civil War.

Basically, some white supremacists argue the Civil War wasn't about slavery, it was about states' rights. It wasn't. There's plenty of historical evidence and facts to debunk this. But even if true, the particular right in question was to own black people as property.
Nothing wrong with valuing that business at ~100 billion too.
Nothing, theyre just Attempting to price the shares correctly now.

Its $6bn in profit still at a $96bn valuation. Down from $150bn. Quite high if only looking at profit. But I definitely like the revenues under the idea they can reduce overhead
I see a lot of focus on the "lost 200 000 subscribers", but less acknowledgement that they kicked 700 000 Russians off the subscriber list, meaning they actually grew by 500 000 subscribers (still well short of wall streets expectation of 2.5 million.)

So in one sense it's a one-time drop, not a trend.

Does Netflix have more competition than before? sure. Is it growing as fast as before? no, especially as they reach saturation in some markets. Is this the "end of netflix"? um... no
In RISC-V with the C-extension 32bit instructions are 16bit aligned.
Far from x86-level of weirdness but my must be quite annoying for those who want to make 'high performance' CPUs..
HBO Max is phenomenal. They seem to be going a different route (pushing quality) than Netflix (algorithms generating low-budget reality shows).
Facebook also still makes insane profits each year. And the stocks drop like hell. There is a lot of uncertainty in the market with many smaller growth stock of the Russel 2000 being completely oversold.

> CPU architectures implicitly have something I call the "architectural weirdness budget"

The point of designing a new architecture is you have a point to make (generally, "doing X will lead to faster execution"). So by definition you are adding unfamiliar architectural weirdness, else why get involved.

The big problem is that the pervasiveness of the C model has fossilized design decisions of the PDP-11 that still haunt us to this day. For example a lot of transistors are devoted to hiding the effects of the micromachine (superscalar implementation, OOO execution etc). Newer paradigms (even trivial older ones like vector instructions) don't get used enough because of higher level language constraints (e.g. C's memory aliasing model). There's a lot of innovation going on but it's all stick in one small bay of a large lake.
Even the most collectivist public-transit apologist should be celebrating Robert Moses. He greatly expanded the predecessor to the MTA, and secured its legacy by building the toll bridges and tunnels that subsidize the wildly expensive New York City subways, generations after the bridges and tunnels have been paid off.

comparative advantage is failing because a lot of these suppliers are to fragile so the alternatives got pushed out of the market.
The second one raises an error:

This conflation of "optional" and "undefined-able" is more obvious in interfaces. This is why TypeScript added the `exactOptionalPropertyTypes` option:

Sometimes "is not defined" needs to be treated differently than "is set to undefined"
I don't watch stuff unless it has ended and is reccomended by someone who watches shows I generally enjoy. Here's my pitch for the golden age of TV, though most of these are from a few years back. Most on HBO.

The Deuce

Treme

Show me a Hero

Luck

The Expanse

Sillicon Valley (not actually that funny but like a documentary of our field)

Mad Men
I suppose the assumption of many investors is that competition is increasing and with that profitability will decline as well.
Still the markets are crazy right now.
You’re being downvoted, but these were the same criticisms I had several years ago. I have no love lost for ISPs if NN is passed again, but the pro-NN rhetoric at the time (like every other issue from 2016-2020) was hyperbolic and toxic. Unfortunately I think NN is too much of a partisan issue for much healthy debate. :/
I stopped drinking water and moved to alcohol only to deal with an issue with bullshit
This article isn’t really about x86’s weirdness as an architecture so much as it’s about Windows’ unusual implementation choices particular to that architecture.
This is the weirdest Android app on my phone. It does what I want, and works great 80% of the time. But then there's the 20% when it just... stops working, for weeks at a time. Error error error suddenly can't read my email. And when I try to update it, it crashes my whole phone during the update process. No other app does that.
The chaotic collapse of CNN+
I don't think they know how to move a project forward. What's it been, 20 years?
Not sure what the compiled != easy to use bit comes from anyways. If anything I'd say that part of Nim makes it easier to use, I don't have to worry about whether or not the target has Python installed.
Yeah, there are lots of places in the app where if something goes wrong, it's a failwhale.

But I figured better to get it out there and if no one cares then why worry about the failure cases?
As with any creative device, it's not about power or checking boxes on feature list, it's about how you gel with the thing and gets your juices flowing, or not.
It's a impossible since the L in LAMP stands for "Linux".
401k contribution limits are going to have to go way up. It went up by $1000 this year to $20,500. That's only 5%!
Under all that muck, you aren't seeing the nuggets. A great example is Severance which came out just this year (Apple+) and it's a masterpiece, from cinematography to high concept to acting.
We live in a golden age because there is something for everyone, but that also means there is a lot of trash. Luckily, there are also more gems available now than ever before.
For me Netflix has too few classic movies/series while Disney+ has a lot more. It also has too many foreign movies that I have zero interest in.
On top of the fact that it makes no sense and is insecure, they're training their own customers to trust and respond to scammers.

It's baffling to hear that there are banks that do this. They should know better.

Allow me to introduce you to the world of recruiter email lookup services:

- https://recruitin.net/

- https://www.gitrecruit.co/

- https://amazinghiring.com/amazinghiring-chrome-extension/

Recruiters feel that email/phone have better response rates, so many of them try to bypass linkedin by looking up your details in such a service. The third of these in particular found my details from the gravatar leak, as best as I can tell, so I wouldn't expect high ethics from these companies.
IRC still exists even. I was recently told that it's basically Dischord for old people and I can't really disagree with that perspective from the eyes of a kid today.
> integration tests running on real data not on mokups.

I can see you are enjoying the life outside of a highly regulated industry. Having certain kinds of production data in tests (or feeding that to test environment) would be a major audit finding in any finance or healthcare company.

Makes for both a blessing and a curse.
I don't even think twitter issue is "the algorithm", but the UI itself.
The issues is not even bubbles, there is nothing wrong with bubbles, we even celebrate healthy bubbles thats bring fun, odd topics, etc.
The issue is bubble shiftings to extremes with nothing to moderate it.
As the bubble become more and more extreme, and showing their behavior in public, the behavior become "normal" and allows it to become even more extreme.

Getting rid of the "trending" block, with something else, like "trending tag within people you follow" would get rid of this normalisation of extreme behavior.

Then you need moderation.

Seeking engagement is not necessarly evil.

GitHub increased engagement, and it lead to more cooperation in the open source software, that's a plus for everyone.

The issue of a lot of social networks, is they want engagement, even if it cause addiction.

I think twitter social network "model" is salvagable in something healty, but it needs a lot of changes.
> you can easily be paying for 3 streaming services for ~$60

You can easily buy and cancel what you want when you want, so that is the not cable-like development.

I do not see why people should fee they are owed all the content in the world for $x.

The important part is the creator/curator/seller of the content and the purchaser of the content are not held hostage by a monopoly/monopsony distributor.
> The trouble with public transport advocacy is that it so often relies on the stick rather than the carrot as the main incentive

I...don't understand what your comment is about? London has excellent public transport that runs all the way into the non-London bits around it. it's mostly made of carrots.

there are also a small number of sticks.
My belief is that, like any media, there is a massive backlog of good content.

When you get through the part of the backlog you enjoy, you have to either wait for content you enjoy to come out (slow!) or explore less enjoyable (to you) content.

Back in high school, I felt "behind" in my cultural wisdom, so I spent an entire summer watching a huge list of TV shows and movies.

Now, shows I truly enjoy are few and far between, because I've seen so much of the good content in my favorite genres already.
I don’t think it’s a stretch to say OP is the typical one while you’re the lucky one.
