It's a big topic. Not only static/dynamic, but also things like structural vs nominal typing.

In this case, it comes down to whether the compiler tracks the "type" of every value when compiling (static typing) or whether types are stored somewhere in memory that is read from when your program is actually running.

Ronnie Barrett’s story might interest you, he was working as a photographer when he began development on what would become the M82 rifle. His company is now well known in both the commercial and .gov small arms world.

At a federal level in the US, licensing for traditional weapons development (outside of nuke/chem/bio) is pretty accessible and relatively cheap. Dual use tech and services work mostly just like any other consumer startup. The marketing and sales/RFP process for the government is what’s unique.

When I worked at Yahoo at the turn of the century, whenever earnings were too low on our property, we would pump up the number of ads on our pages. It's a very common and might be a good way to see if an ad-based company like Google or Meta is close to missing earnings. And for the record, I noticed the increase in ads as well, at least 2 full ads without ability to skip per viewing.
To me, PDF is a read-only format while pptx and docx are not. It would be like Google releasing earnings as a Google doc. Where they could still release them as view-only google docs.
Yet the time cost of starting UNIX userland programs, including a crunched sh, busybox or simply a static dash, is perceptively less than starting Python.

There is a lot of ridiculous criticism about shell scripts on the web in recent times. The author admits that it is unlikely a scripting language will outperform sort, sed and so on. However if I share something I wrote entirely in sed that can also be done in, say, Python with fewer LOC (because the work is being done by libraries) or in some other, large, popular scripting language, virtually no one commenting will appreciate the speed benefits of using sed.

I can deliberately avoid pipelines, I can store transformed data in temporary files, but most times I want to use pipes. They do not slow things down, they speed things up. That's because I do not write long, convulated shell scripts.

Many people want to write larger, more complex scripts. If so, then by all means use Python or whatever. But for smaller, simpler scripts, there is nothing wrong with the shell. Pipes are incredibly useful. People make shell scripts slow and then try to blame the shell.

Also, you forget to mention using {} which should not create a subshell.
There is little evidence universal preschool would reduce academic variance later on. On cognitive measures (though not necessarily social/emotional), randomized trials of such programs tend to show fade-out (no difference between control and treatment groups) within several years.

I mean that the body most won't respond to signals to reabsorb water from the bladder because of weak QVPR2 activity.

AVPR2 only shows up (significantly) in the kidneys. It pumps water back from the bladder to the bloodstream. AVPR1 and AVPR3 show up in the brain (and drive/control any hormonal response tied to water availability/quality/safety-to-access. Including territorial mammals marking territory.)

Vasopressin is actually a mirror-image of oxytocin, with a few hundred million years of divergent mutations. Unique to mammals. That's why mammals are the only vertebrates that independently, separately, regulate water and ions. (Thus, sweating, lactation, crying, uncalcified placenta vs egg, etc.)

So the brain keeps pumping out vasopressin (in response to dehydration-induced corticotropin-releasing factor). This leads to water "running right through". And high baseline vasopressin levels that go even higher with dehydration.

Less commonly, especially for men, the body overreacts to vasopressin. Excessive vasopressin 2 receptor efficacy or transcription leads to low baseline vasopressin. Low vasopressin 'magnifies' any oxytocin activity. Leads to "human-hyperstimulated" autism and high innate trust in unfearful situations. Also often leads to low territory/spatial mapping capacity.

This is what we're talking about.
Exactly. The firm I work for does a lot of 3D printing using the HP Multijet Fusion systems and we do not require custom support structures for anything. As you point out, the powder bed is the support.
That's kind of a non-sequitur though. A 3D printed table is no less 3D if you had to print it upside down. And who even has a table they haven't flipped over at least once?

> However, presumably PowerShell requires at least the .NET Runtime if not the .NET SDK, doesn't it?

Nope, these days .NET programs (like PowerShell) bundle the runtime. But even if they did a lighter distribution that depended on the runtime already being installed, there would be no .NET telemetry sent.

> Does running the recommended "dotnet --list-runtimes" command send telemetry, like most of the commands?

This is still an SDK command. I don't personally know if this one sends any telemetry.

> Or are you saying that the Runtime, unlike the SDK, doesn't include telemetry at all?

The runtime does not send telemetry.
Where does this mind store its memories and thoughts?

If you were to ask this mind to answer that question (or it were to spontaneously put the question to itself, whether the auditory qualia is "your" voice or its own), what do you expect its answer would be?
From that page:

Yeah, not so much boys! Also, that disclaimer should really be at the top of the manual, with a link to the wiki, rather than vice-versa, as it is now.

The wiki is like secret information -- "oh, hey, here's the page that actually tells you how it works!"

Comments like this irritate me to no end. The OP hand waves away centuries of good, bad and indifferent history, in many countries, with a single pithy comment, and people act like that's insightful.

It's barely even worth acknowledging. Don't encourage sassy reddit one liners.
The author addresses this.

> The possibility of sustained progress is a consequence of the view of humans as “universal explainers” (cf. David Deutsch), and of progress as driven fundamentally by human choice and effort—that is, by human agency.

> The opposite view is that progress is a matter of luck. If the progress of the last few centuries was a random windfall, then pessimism is logical: our luck is bound to run out.

So it's[1] not about predicting trends based on present conditions. In fact almost the opposite. An optimist would predict that hard unsolved problems will be solved in the future, because that has been the trend.

[1] by "it" I meant to say "pessimism" here
Thanks! I started with an intrusive linked list because I just wanted to get something working but replacing it with something else has been on my mind for the same reasons you mention.
Agreed. Every M&A deal I've been in includes a period of exactly this. Sometimes even leading up to funding events.
"trying to build services alongside it is truly awful"

That makes no sense. It's very easy to build a REST API in Rails in which case you can connect to that API from services written in other languages. Conversely, you can easily call out to other services' APIs from Rails.

In fact, I'll go so far as to say building a few choice services in particularly performant (lower-level) languages alongside a main Rails monolith is the best organizational pattern for larger applications and enterprise deployments. You get all the benefits of Ruby & Rails for most happy paths, as well as the benefits of "This goes to 11!!!" performance for the critical paths which need that.
I pay this to get rid of Google's inserted ads, but it's getting hurt by too many in-video sponsorship ads. I would pay for a mode where the content creator gets more money in exchange for automatically skipping their sponsorship ad.

The like/subscribe/become a Patreon is also annoying, but not as bad as actual ads.
I love stuff like this. With so many communities congregating on Discord, Slack etc. we lose a lot of valuable information that would previously have been on something publicly searchable like StackOverflow. A lot of OSS has fallen into this pattern and it can be truly infuriating at times.
They lost 6 billion on their equities compared to last years quarter. If you ignore that, which seems valid as it's fluky, they had a great quarter. Went from $13 billion in profit to $17.5. Would like to see more growth in youtube and GCP, but that's is nowhere near a facebook/netflix event.
As opposed to "nested two levels deep under one item or another on the File…or was it View…or maybe Window…menu? No? Okay, then try holding down Option…"

I still think that searchable menus was one of the killer features of OS X vs. anything else at the time, and it's frankly amazing that the majority of Windows apps still don't have menu search.
Wow this really does tell a story. His mom and his son both died.
> This statement is false. There are plenty of websites that self publish video and receive utility for it.

This is a "0.001 is technically greater than 0" argument that could be made for ISPs as well. Do you accept that there are thousands/millions of people who rely on access to YT to support themselves, and have an income dependent on that site that would vanish if they were expelled from it?

You shouldn't get a wrong impression from LPL videos, he practices picks extensively and said he only starts recording when he's pretty sure he can pick the given lock consistently.
This study uses cortisol measurements to obscure the fact that one group was asked to do a stressful public speaking task first:

> Human participants (males and females) completed a charitable donation task before and after they underwent either a psychosocial stressor or a control manipulation, while their brain activity was measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).

Most of these "cortisol does X" studies are deeply flawed because they try to pretend like cortisol is some independent variable, when really it's an artifact of having asked the people to do something stressful.

In this case, the study is best interpreted as "Certain people are less altruistic
immediately after being forced to do a stressful public speaking task".
> What it sounds like Obama is really pushing for here is government/totalitarian control over what speech should be permitted, the exact opposite of free speech.

You make it sound like there is zero nuance to permitted speech as it is today in the US. You can't shout fire in a theater, you can't post spam on Facebook and expect it to stick, and right now, certain kinds of hate or expression are also banned by virtually every common space's TOS.

Social media is an invention of the past 20 years. It's entirely factual that how we communicate and consume information is changing, and it's also factual that our news sources are in danger from two ends: from bias by the platform owners, and from manipulation from outside forces (e.g. foreign propoganda / misinformation).

It's pretty naive to advocate for unfiltered social media. If you want that, there are certainly some venues for it (e.g. 4chan). Facebook and Twitter have huge problems relating to hate speech, misinformation, and misinformation. Doesn't it seem problematic to you that huge swaths of people are bandwagoning onto unscientific / insane conspiracy theories like QAnon? This sort of behavior could not have existed without modern social media, and I find it pretty sad that anyone would say this is desirable.

> The reason Democracy is “weakening” is because people have been lied to by elected representatives in both parties as well as institutions and traditional media outlets for decades.

Democracy is weakening because people like Trump enter office and act like they are above the law -- refusing to cooperate with the other elected bodies, refusing to provide financial transparency, trading on insider information, directly using their positions to enrich themselves and their families, trying to coerce civil servants to abandon their responsibilities in favor of whatever is politically expedient (e.g. declaring voter fraud where there is none, eschewing public health guidance advocated by scientists and public health experts, etc). Democracy is weakening because media outlets are being purchased by billionaires in an environment with increasing wealth disparity. Democracy is weakening because foreign adversaries are leveraging social media to spread misinformation and conspiracy theories are being perpetuated via new memetic and contrarian tendencies.

All of this could be improved with the help of responsible moderation to decrease sockpuppet accounts and misinformation, as well as regulated standards for acceptable behavior in the commons. If you want totally unfettered speech, nobody is stopping you from starting your own private discord server or website. But you can't just say whatever in public commons.
The political corner of YouTube that I spend the most time on probably isn’t even on their radar, but it’s gotten to the point where almost every channel I subscribe to often mentions their out of band content on Rumble, Rokfin, Substack, etc because YouTube has been demonetizing left and right.

Seconded on the tritium fade, my oldest is around 15 years and you can tell a big difference vs newer ones.

Unless the fused bits transmit light exactly the same as the unfused bits, you would need to build up from the bottom, or anyway starting farther away from the light source, regardless.
it's possible that you're missing the trick of "two photon excitation" which the paper sort of breezes past, but is the solution for "i only want the effect to happen right where i've created a tiny focal sphere of this laser." see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-photon_excitation_microsco...

The triplets described in this paper seem to build on the "standard" 2P effect.
Thanks! Not sure of the migration path off of Slack at least in the near term since there is a lot of pull in to Slack since most people in professional setting already is familiar with the UX. I do think there is something there for a layer on top of Slack or Discord where information gets moved.

I want to explore making this tool available for internal teams once I have more features around productivity like related questions, summarization and confluence/docs integration. These seem useful for internal teams but need to assess whether people actually want this.
I'd say that in an ideal situation low-code is a visual DSL that lets you declare in business terms what you expect the application to do.

Kinda like pseudo code that you would expect from a business analyst, that only defines what business outcomes you expect, but technology independent. So it could still be implemented in react native, or veujs, or angular, or native swift.
Depends on whether you have good capital allocators at the top. Most companies don’t, really.
I've noticed that the first ad is often unskippable and the second ad will be 5-second skippable for me. I wonder if you exit YouTube when you see the 2nd ad if the ad system will learn to give you less ads?
Can't we agree that both extremes are wrong? While I agree that it is wrong to assume there is no such thing as innate human ability, and it is wrong to assume everyone can achieve equally, you seem to be arguing the opposite; that there is nothing that can be done to improve achievement for those who are struggling.

This simply isn't true. There are things that can be done to improve the outcome for students, and we should continue to work to try to improve the success of all students. This doesn't mean that you expect everyone to achieve equally, just that you can help people achieve more than they would have without the help.

I also find this argument a bit paradoxical; if you truly believe that innate ability is the only determining factor for how well students do, then why do you worry about handicapping those who are capable? It shouldn't matter if we force them into classes they are too advanced for, since how we educate them doesn't matter and only natural talent matters.

It seems that you believe schooling does affect achievement, since you want to make sure we aren't holding back the high achievers, yet you are saying at the same time we shouldn't worry about how we educate the low achievers because they are stuck where they are no matter what. You can't argue that it matters for high achievers but not for low achievers, that doesn't make any sense.

I think this is key. What exactly they study may not be quite as important as whether or not they are actually getting an opportunity to do some form of challenging mathematics.
I don't think he's rambling. He isn't sure what familiarity his audience will have with the intellectual underpinnings of his argument, so he recaps those before embarking on the argument proper, in order to make sure the audience can follow.

Granted, he does tell a couple
of anecdotes in the process, but maybe that's his style. I think it's fair to consider impatience implicated here - for what it's worth, when I find myself feeling that way about coverage of stuff I already know but not everyone is guaranteed to, I usually just skip ahead or scroll ahead, checking in here and there, until I hit something on point or that I don't already know. (Usually the second one!)

Impatience is an emotion, and while we can't help much what we feel or how we feel it, we can most of the time treat what we feel as input. Think of it, if you want, like a Datadog alert. How do we handle those? By investigating to understand the root cause and taking whatever action that requires in the context, if any. If we let them drive our behavior directly without taking the time for considered action, we easily risk causing more problems than we're likely to solve.

Granted, I don't entirely love this metaphor, which is no less flawed than any. Maybe too some dork on Twitter will use this as an example of the mechanistic techbro attitude endemic to the diseased discourse of Hacker News comments, or something; it does lend itself somewhat to such misrepresentation.

But despite that lossiness I think it's not wholly without use, because it does point at least vaguely toward a way in which we can manage and make valuable use of even the most unpleasant among our emotions, and one that's served me well over the years since I stumbled upon the concept in some writing or other, I've long since forgotten where.

(I don't think Deutsch was rambling, but I certainly am, in an effort to distract myself from a quite unpleasant facial pain I can't do anything meaningful about until Thursday. Please excuse me.)

With supply chain issues, there's no point in advertising goods that you can't sell, so it makes sense.
This is my experience too. I can't escape YouTube ads on my TV's app (shame on me) and I'm at the annoyance breaking point because of the recent increase.

Short term this just means using something other than the TV app. But long term (5-15 years -_- ) I think content is going to be hosted places other than YouTube. Maybe wishful thinking, but right now if I had a YouTube link and a PeerTube link to the same content I'd send my friends to PeerTube instance.

If there's anything HN threads that deal with history tells us it's - yes, yes it is. Nevertheless people will weigh in with their incredibly strong opinions they have based off of (I presume) hollywood movies. Maybe a lot of people just got finished watching that one where Leonardo di Caprio was Louis XIV, or maybe it was Braveheart.
I think the worst problem is it’s made everyone think Netflix is a tech company, including themselves apparently.

It's a real pity that the training data is so expensive to create, otherwise Google could feed all of YouTube into an AI and get it to understand physical reality as well as GPT-3 understands textual reality.

I guess some people would say that GPT-3 doesn't "understand" anything, it merely predicts tokens, but I think that GPT-3 does at least learn "sensible" patterns, so it would be nice if an AI could for example predict how humans (and cameras) move in a scene.

Perhaps being able to translate between textual and visual domains would help speed up machine training/learning, since humans often combine the two domains when learning new concepts too, but my guess is that AIs need to be able to symbolically manipulate abstract ideas to really bridge the gap between prediction and understanding.
I use unique addresses for almost everyone, and the spam fits a consistent pattern. Mostly, the emails don’t get sold unless I order from a somewhat shady site (grey market items not regionally available for example). Most of the time when I get spam from a ‘legitimste’ source, it’s right after a news announcement about a data leak. For example, my PayPal address gets a bunch of spam, and that happened after some user leak many years ago.
Kind of a late comment but I really do wish Samsung would make a serious attempt at a "stock android" type of device that was affordable, because I think they would kill it. Their phones have always seemed really high quality to me, but so expensive, and the S2 that I had back in the day was riddled with Samsung versions of apps that I didn't want.
