O, Theta, and Omega are independent from best, worst, and average case. You can mathematically establish upper, lower, or exact bounds on any of the average, best, or worst cases.

It is perfectly valid to say "the best case is O(n)" which means the best case scales no worse than linearly. The "no worse" here is not describing the best case, but rather the strictness of your bound. You could say a sort algorithm is O(n!) since, yes, it does scale no worse than n! but it's not particularly helpful information.

Big O notation is used imprecisely frequently (see also people saying a dataset is O(millions) to describe scale).
MacPorts is pretty unstable (in my experience). Felt like 2011-era Arch Linux all over again...

Honestly, Nix is the only package manager I really like on Mac.
It can also help you develop 'psychic' powers etc, why is the west always so slow with this stuff? It's been known about for pretty much thousands of years already.

I know we're currently in the Church of Paul Graham, where college is useless and it's all about the startup grind. But college is known to lead to better outcomes on average for people who go to college, and there is an intrinsic value, to both individuals and society, in receiving an education.

High school is free, for example, and it's not worthless.
The bug is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1808957. Battery draining overnight - yikes!

It's possible that Arch ships with the workaround/fix by default.
Colleges already have a mechanism for determining chance of success in college, and degrees have data on the average income after graduation. It would be trivial for private lenders to take into account the school, factors in standard college applications, the degree, and expected income to make a loan decision instead of relying on credit, debt-to-income, etc.
Or the show might be good and they cancel it after the first season...

> Public Service Loan Forgiveness program

Come work for the permanent undemocratic bureaucracy, and you'll even your student loans forgiven.
But if you decide to go down the path of becoming a kulak, the student loans will be with you even if you go bankrupt.

I'm curious where the sudden bump to 40k comes from. According to Wikipedia [1]:

> The Department of Education reported that 2,215 borrowers had the remainder of their respective student loans forgiven under the program as of April 30, 2020.

Universities are football franchises that happen to have a school attached to them. The pull of NCAA sports is like a black hole.
That's the best-case scenario, the worse-case is that in trying to fix a problem we caused, we fail and end up with more problems.

I am comparing this to my case with my own laptop Dell G15 Ryzen edition. Linux seems to play quite well with it, however I am dealing with poor driver performance and limitations with switching displays and nVidia Optimus.
For that reason I tried installing Windows 10 after almost a decade lol. This amazing driver support was something I always missed and it made a lot of things simpler for me. All my hardware is now plug and play without having to restart the system. Not just that, some kernels made my system go haywire so I had to do a lot of housekeeping, which is not required with Windows 10 I believe.
Looking forward to get my hands on WSL and make the final decision.
As a developer/gamer I use all these systems and with every year I'm less and less motivated to use macOS. Linux is clear winner for everything I need server related and Windows is fine for everything client related. macOS is in this weird spot where it lacks most of the server side stuff (lack of hosting, poor virtualization support etc.), but it also lacks some of the client side things (poor gaming, no hardware customization etc.).
Agreed. Your comment reminds me of this great quote:

“Simple, clear purpose and principles give rise to complex and intelligent behavior. Complex rules and regulations give rise to simple and stupid behavior.”

– Dee Hock

The hubris of creating complex rules to outsmart a problem leads to the creation of yet more complex rules to solve its own shortcomings.

Yes, some migrants are more 'challenging' to integrate, especially to assimilate partly because some cultural differences mean that they do not want to assimilate and will not assimilate. This is key to what Europe has been experiencing.

Of course, for instance when Italians migrated to France that did create some tensions at the time but a generation later there was no difference apart from the Italian family names, because French and Italian cultures are very similar and, yes let's be honest, they both look pretty much the same.

Europe can and should pick and choose who to let in. As things stand there is no benefit for Europe in mass immigration from outside of Europe.
In general, a function approximation solution like deep learning does worse on cases where exhaustively finding the exact optimum is possible (small combinatorial problems), but can be applied to much larger instances than the exact algorithms can.
Makes sense. The dollar can’t stay the dominant currency forever.
Yeah it seems like a kind of contradiction if you want this to be ecologically effective. You can't simultaneously have the phenotype severely impact reproductive success and be super effective in controlling the population.
Correct - both people in your scenario end up having no student loan debt.

But Person A, who paid their $30k loan in full, now has $30k less to spend on a home, a car, savings, etc.
Person B, who did not pay their $30k, now has effectively $30k more in buying power either immediately or spread across what would otherwise have been their repayment timeline.

Person A's responsibility for their obligation has set them back $30k, while Person B's lack of responsibility for making payments has put them ahead $30k. Maybe we shouldn't call it a direct punishment, but they're certainly coming out of the scenario worse off than their counterpart.

Yeah. I'm becoming more and more convinced that the modern adult's emotional maturity now stops developing in middle school. I guess I would blame social media? I don't know. Or maybe we just don't teach kids how to deal with this anymore.

That a grown adult would still be dwelling on shit from high school is something that I cannot fathom. I was a complete backwards nerd in high school, didn't know how to socialize, didn't know how to talk to girls, didn't play sports, loved math, science, and computers, all the stereotypical attributes. In many ways I still am that person. I got the stereotypical treatment back then, but it's ancient history. High school kids are idiots for the most part, why would you be letting their idiocy back then affect you as a grown, independent adult today. Have some self respect for pete's sake.
Progressive Enhancement is practiced by (some) public-funded organisations. These organisations have a public duty to serve as wide as a audience as possible. I don't know if these Progressive Enhancement websites are in a minority or not, but it's disappointing if they represent a minority.

Progressive Enhancement website examples:

GOV.UK

The UK government website (gov.uk) use Progressive Enhancement and even have guidelines: Building a resilient frontend using progressive enhancement (Last updated 2019): https://www.gov.uk/service-manual/technology/using-progressi...

From the article guidelines above:

> Progressive enhancement is a way of building websites and applications. It’s based on the idea that you should start by making your page work with just HTML, before adding anything else like Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and JavaScript.

> This is because HTML is the most resilient layer. If the HTML fails there’s no web page. Should the CSS or JavaScript fail, the HTML will still render correctly.

Heh, I was kinda bummed out when I got mine. I'd been developing on Linux for years. That turned around hard in a month or two.

This was well before the super-shitty run they had where they went all-USB-C, Touch Bar (ugh), and ruined their keyboards, though. I'd probably have been a lot less impressed if that was my introduction to their stuff.
As a father of two, this article is so damn horrible I don't have words for how it makes me feel. I don't know why it's on HN's top page again, but I remember the last time it was, and it was the same thing.

I work in the consumer electronics space, so I have a reasonable sense of how hard this would be, but it seems like an air temperature monitor that is on/around your baby would be pretty easy to build and probably sell millions.
You burn your pan. Teflon off gasses. The gas is released in air.

The same offgassed chemical is now under the teflon, between pan and teflon, as well as in any cracks, or porous areas of the teflon, more likely now, as teflon has changed its chemical struture.

It's where the gas came from, yes?

So, now you have a pan more likely to crack and chip, with deadly chemicals waiting.

The logic you are employing, is similar to the logic which got a deadly substance, teflon, approved.

OK under some circumstances, but not thinking of the entire picture.

The price? Your health.

The health of all in your house, breathing toxic gas, and eating toxins, for which the young are more susceptible to.

This is classic "what's wrong with the world" stuff. For an extremely mild convenience, use a deadly solution at a whim. Teflon.

People would rather have their food covered in toxic stuff, than use a little oil. Or buy an iron pan, and season it correctly.
There’s good (and bad) bacteria all over our bodies. Our skin is coated with them and needs to be coated with them. Without the good ones on our skin, bad ones take over, and then any cuts become more likely to get infected.

I’ll update later with a source reference or two. But I’m willing to bet that Wikipedia‘s “skin flora” page has good info. Im not sure of the term for the mouth’s flora though…but I have zero doubt that it exists, simply because bacteria is everywhere. And gut bacteria get there via the mouth.

Long story short, there’s no such thing as a pure human. We exist only because we are colonized by bacteria. We’re kind of like the earth in that regard. We house living organisms and they make us what we are, without them homeostasis crumbles and so do we. So, with that in mind, we should be selectively helping the good ones and killing the bad, instead of wiping them all out.

Regarding replacing the gut bacteria with suitable enzymes for digestion, that would probably be misguided. The bacteria do more than just help digestion… they also keep bad bacteria out. And furthermore, they actually affect our mental health, keeping depression at bay for instance. Whether that’s indirectly via suppressing inflammation or some more direct means, I don’t recall.

Edit: Looks like it’s a much more direct means of influence: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31100533 (There doesn’t seem to be much about this here on HN already, so I’m providing a source via HN submission in hopes of generating some discussion…)

That strictness of x86 execution order has been substantially relaxed in the last two decades and can be a bit of a pain to deal with in multithreaded code for the novice. The Pentium 3 added SFENCE (with SSE) and the Pentium 4 added LFENCE and MFENCE (with SSE2). I believe that prior to that, only the LOCK prefix was available.

> The problem is that many US universities are private.

This is false. The cost of tuition at public universities has grown faster over the last 20 years than at private universities, for both in-state and out-of-state students.

The average tuition and fees at private National Universities have jumped 144%.
Out-of-state tuition and fees at public National Universities have risen 171%.
In-state tuition and fees at public National Universities have grown the most, increasing 211%.

Well no, if a company is happy to pay six figures but lacks the desire to spend an hour or two pair programming or even just creating a tech test, their priorities are all wrong and I don’t want to work for them. Hiring is about people and not robots, so using automated tests like Hacker Rank that almost always have zero bearing on how a problem would be solved in a real environment is a testament to a lazy hiring process and an extremely poor reflection on the company. Don’t try to automate something that should intrinsically involve human interaction.

Comparing it to a CV is a false equivalence because it takes me O(1) effort to make and CV and O(n) to do some stupid timed algorithm test for every company that is interested in the value of my labour.
Sure, that's silly, agreed. BS about Apple being a "fashion company" isn't really helping, though.
these look good, thanks!
The same reason a bank offers a home mortgage? They expect to get a return on their investment.

Sure some student loans are going to get discharged and the lender will take a loss (just like with mortgages). But lenders with good enough actuaries are going to price their loans so that they make more than they lose and ideally the worse lenders will go out of business.
For anyone confused, this wasn't argued before the US Supreme Court, it was argued before the NY State Supreme Court, which _isn't_ the highest court in the state (that's the Court of Appeals).
Wind still needs to be over-provisioned by a factor of 3 or 4 [1] due to seasonal variation. By comparison, nuclear only needs to be over-provisioned by a factor 1.2 or 1.3.

> And finally, the reason we don't have much storage on the grid today, is because we burn fossil fuels for a great deal of power and turning them off actually saves money (and lives) so that's what we do rather than store energy.

No, the reason why we don't have storage on the grid is because we have no feasible way of storing energy at grid scale. Hawaii, California, and parts of Germany all produce excesses of electricity during peak solar and wind generation. We were promised that people would take this energy off the grid, store it, and release it later when energy is in greater demand. But these promises have not panned out, because storage remains infeasible. So instead, we keep burning fossil fuels. And we'll continue to keep burning fossil fuels until we either adopt nuclear power or some massive breakthrough in storage is found.

It'll still take significant amounts of storage even to drive fossil fuel use down to 20%. Estimates say 12 hours of storage [2]. That's an incredible amount of storage, hundreds of times greater than what we have now.

Big O, Theta, and Omega notations all ultimately denote sets of functions. So e.g. O(n) is the set of all functions which are eventually overtaken by some linear function.

When we say "X is O(f(n))" what we really mean is "the function that characterizes X is contained within the set of functions denoted by O(f(n))." Anything that can be described by a function hence can be given Big O, Theta, or Omega notation. So yes worst case time complexity could be described in this notation, but so could average time complexity.

But we could also describe things that have nothing to do with time or space complexity with big O notation as well. As long as we've turned it into a function, we can describe it with big O notation.

Can you please explain what is the source of your anti Ukrainian sentiment?

After WW2 everybody who opposed Russian expansionism and imperialism was called a Nazi by Russia (first of course a Fascist till the end of USSR for obvious reasons but Nazi more and more after that).

This dehumanization reached extreme levels after the start of Russian invasion into Ukraine.

Historian and Holocaust researcher Timothy Snyder has covered this twisted incitement to genocide in his writing "Russia's genocide handbook" https://snyder.substack.com/p/russias-genocide-handbook

Imagine the situation where German chancellor would start to call out Austrians for not wanting to be/become German and declares that even the idea of Austrian is insulting to Germans.

Regardless of this absurdity, this is exactly what is going on in Russia against Ukrainians who as nation are even more distinct from Russians in Russia than are Austrians from Germans in Germany.

This is for what Ukrainians are called Nazis even when it is clear without doubt who are the 21st century Nazis.

There is no question in support to Ukraine to fight this monstrous genocidal terror state Russia has become.

I never imply to move entirely to public transportation. The best solution is multi-modal transportation.

This is an argument I despise, specially related to cars... Any death is bad, and should be avoided, whatever how!

A simple example, in the USA, is the whole wave of rules, laws, etc. after the attach of 9/11.
Less than 3000 died[1] because of it. That's equal to only one month of road death in 2020 or 2021[2].

One technical question I've never understood about this debate: when the government "forgives" loans like this, what are they actually doing? Is the government paying the creditors off on the debtors' behalf (like a bailout)? Or are they simply declaring a refusal to prosecute the debtors?

Here are brief Wiki extracts:

"Marmite is a brand of savoury food spread from the United Kingdom, based on yeast extract invented by German scientist Justus von Liebig. It is made from by-products of beer brewing (see Lees (fermentation)) and is currently produced by British company Unilever. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite ..."

"Vegemite is a thick, dark brown Australian food spread made from leftover brewers' yeast extract with various vegetable and spice additives. It was developed by Cyril Callister in Melbourne, Victoria in 1922. ..."

A spread for sandwiches, toast, crumpets and cracker biscuits as well as a filling for pastries, Vegemite is similar to British Marmite, New Zealand Marmite, Australian Promite, MightyMite, AussieMite, OzEmite, German Vitam-R, and Swiss Cenovis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegemite."

Special note to Americans: Vegemite is owned by Kraft, a US multinational. So you're to blame for foisting it on the world!
