> There was also a large amount of concern from the attendees about the impact the introduction of nogil could have on CPython development. Some worried that introducing nogil mode could mean that the number of tests run in CI would have to double. Others worried that the maintenance burden would significantly increase if two separate versions of CPython were supported simultaneously

The 2021 workstation I am typing this on has 16 physical and 32 virtual cores, and I expect core counts to continue upward this decade. While the CPython core devs may be excellent programmers and do a good job at maintaining Python, they clearly have a bit of trouble with cost/benefit analysis if the complaint is that the test count will double in CI for a ~16X increase in the amount of code that can be run in parallel on even consumer machines. Yes, yes, I know that this does not mean my programs will run ~16X as fast. Yes, I know there are other objections. But this is an order of magnitude away from being an actual blocker and the fact it was brought up at all as an objection shows a fundamental disconnect between the small potential costs imposed on core devs, and the huge potential upsides for Python users everywhere.
> There was also a large amount of concern from the attendees about the impact the introduction of nogil could have on CPython development. Some worried that introducing nogil mode could mean that the number of tests run in CI would have to double. Others worried that the maintenance burden would significantly increase if two separate versions of CPython were supported simultaneously: one with the GIL, and one without.

This seems like a key consideration for the long-term success of nogil and CPython. The Python ecosystem has survived and recovered from past forks but it would good to avoid forks altogether if possible, especially if nogil proves to be stable and performant enough for prime time. At the least we should try to keep any forks short-term, e.g. starting with a compiler flag with a timeline for shifting to a runtime flag. (These are just my thoughts, take everything with a pinch of salt.)
It’s mostly looking at comparables… I don’t the crypto is substantially different in that regard.
Your dad was right, you know.
layman question from me would be whether neon acts like a superfluid the way helium does at those temperatures, and whether that property is part of what makes this approach different.

Fore and aft weight distribution matters a lot in terms of how the airplane flies. Side to side not as much. (Most single-engine airplanes have more moment arm of fuel weight change in the wings than moment arm of two people sitting on the left side of the airplane.)

Fore and aft changes in center of gravity affect how far the center of mass is from the tail control surfaces and the amount of negative lift the tail has to contribute. I can feel the difference when my (fairly small framed) family moves around in the back cabin.

Aft weight distribution makes the airplane far more sensitive in pitch, reduces drag from the tail negative lift, which slightly increases climb rate and/or forward speed for a given power setting.
Encrypting with the public key of the site I'm visiting, example - google.com. A VPN provider that installed a Root CA without my knowing still wouldn't be able to read the traffic being encrypted with Google's public key. They could see the SNI and see I am visiting Google that's understood. Perhaps that's what the author meant in the passage I quoted above.
Here’s a concrete example from today of supposed “principles” being completely meaningless for the GOP. https://variety.com/2022/politics/news/hawley-copyright-disn...
This is not true at all.

CentOS Streams is the next X-Release of RHEL. I work with RH Partners and we use Streams as a test platform before we move to QE on Beta and RC builds.

This has been refuted by RH many times. You want to be upset they took away CentOS, that is your choice but spreading incorrect information about Streams is simply misleading.
> have to live up to a higher expectation because of their background

So you think their background doesn’t give them a leg up in recruiting, interviewing, or hiring, but once they are hired they have to live up to a higher expectation?

Sorry, but they get preference and deference all the way through the process. I have seen it first hand. Also, employers should have high expectations of former Google employees, they are supposed to be the brightest of the bunch.
Half the peninsula is forests and grass fields with nothing there. You can't be serious? There's huge NIMBYism preventing those areas from being developed.
Ask HN: Best low/no code platform for simple CRUD app?
Time and time again I have non tech-savvy friends and family wanting to build their side hustle without investing or learning a lot about programming. I wanted to recommend some platform for general crud apps but I don't know what's the state of the art in terms of what can be built with the new low/no code platforms out there, but I know it's a space with lots of VC funding so maybe HN knows what's best nowadays or trade offs between the top tools?
Oh I have the leather working merit badge, I loved it! The particulars of how to work with hide and stamp it was a neat arts-and-crafts activity that I hadn't realized.

Basket weaving was considered the slacker badge (for my troop at least) to work on during summer camp because it had 2 requirements and it generally took a day to complete. I was more interested in rock climbing / canoeing / forestry etc - we're in the wood for a week, why waste it?
It’s not. dbt goes out of its way to avoid having to parse SQL into an ast; Markdoc is Stripe going out of its way to parse input to an ast. dbt’s approach is more similar to the ERB system Stripe mentions Markdoc replacing.
It gets better. Due to drop out rates of first and second year students at first tier schools - there are vast openings for juniors [schools lose tuition]. UC Berkeley, Standford, CalTech are super motivated - have streamlined systems to take in strong CC students. Honestly, if you get all As, cover the same two years [you need a detailed plan signed off on] - you can write your own ticket.

(IMHO during covid this option was king)
I believe you. Unfortunately targeting polarizing figures or unpopular minorities is an easy way for three letter agencies to ensure that that a large percentage of the American public happily and enthusiastically supports their evil.
The multiple occurrences when INS had just delayed my entry by hours while also not letting me use my phone to message my American partner were what made me eventually become American. It’s not just that INS can screw you, it’s that they seem to relish holding that above you.

Oh, and to be clear I am the whitest white dude whoever whited, so I wasn’t even being subjected to skin colour based racism, and yet was getting screwed around.

Why do any comparables have value?

In the stock market, because if everyone in the world wanted to sell all their stock in some companies, some folks would snap up the opportunity to take control of at least most of those companies. Yes, this is several levels obfuscated by the time you get to retail investors (and if you look just at news media sources targeted at retail investors, it's almost all short-term reactionary bullshit), but ultimately that's the fallback for the system that is gonna keep prices non-zero. Very recent tangible example: Elon Musk willing to pay real money to take control of Twitter.

In the crypto market... what's the ultimate backing? Hope of various sorts of a future new world financial infrastructure, reserve currency, store of value? I've heard a thousand stories, none of them are true yet though.

Sure, if you believe in one of those futures, you should invest in the appropriate crypto tokens. You'll be better off if fewer of the rest of us believe in it now when you're about to buy, after all. ;) But if your analysis of where to put your money - trying to figure out what's likely to hold or gain value vs lose it - comes down to "eh it's all the same yolo" then just recognize that it's a gamble to invest in crypto - saying "I believe that it's also a gamble to invest in stocks" doesn't really make it a better gamble.
That’s not a streaming replication though. So apples to oranges comparison.
No. I teach at the high school level in a suburb of Minneapolis. Staff asked for a formal response from administration about banning phones and were were told, directly and unequivocally, that we cannot do so, and while they support teacher initiative to restrict phone use in class, if a teacher should take a phone off a student they are personally and financially responsible for the device. I’m supposed to assume thousands of dollars of personal liability each day on my 45k salary? Fat chance.

As you expect, phone use is a constant problem. Parents are very often no more willing to restrict phone use when it’s brought to their attention. It’s kind of a shit show.

I haven't seen a market crash since the housing crisis.

Of course, I didn't move my money into crypto so that might be the reason.
This is anecdotal, but this is the opposite of my experience. I attended a community college in Los Angeles and its math and science courses were very rigorous. I had no trouble keeping up when I eventually transferred to a CSU (California State University).
A .4% loss in share since February, according to one website? Isn't that a little small and short-term to draw such a firm conclusion? or am I missing something significant?

Especially when, according to that same survey, it's up 1.7% since this time last year...
why are you shilling julia in a thread about the python GIL?
Github does not count as open source.
Yah. This is something that is always messed up in pictures of cockpits or flight simulators. The eye is pretty wide angle compared to any reasonable looking photograph inside a cockpit.

In the real world, when you sit up straight, you see just fine out of a tricycle gear airplane and see the runway ahead on the ground and the ground below you in the air. And then you slouch a couple inches and look down and have a great view of the bottom instruments.
New code on github is never good news.

I haven’t really had a great experience with Flutter in the past, in my opinion I think React Native provides a better user experience. Developer experience is okay.

The best experience for users would be a library that handles business logic, as well as describes how the UI should be laid out, then building native clients that use that library.
Oh please, social media may make teens depressed and suicidal, but so too has life in general for decades or longer. If anything, teens can more easily access social support from certain peers within the framework of social media when they do get into a bad spot. Teenage life has never been easy, but it has also never been easier than it is today.

Your notion of social media causing some sort of enormously unique and enormous damage needs to be heavily qualified by real evidence compared to previous trends. I say all this, by the way, as someone who has enormous criticism for the intrusive, manipulative and heavy handed totalities of social media companies. However, it's one thing to hate them where they deserve hate and another to attribute very old problems of teenage life to them as if they were unique emergences today.

It's popular on HN to hate on social networks (despite many people here very much being dependent on them for their large salaries) but some of this hate should be taken with a grain of salt and lots of qualification.

edit: social media makes teens suicidal and depressed, but not inordinately more than many other things would in their lives in general. Being saturated by these networks is not obligatory in life. Even teens have plenty of agency and opportunities to learn about the dangers of not moderating involvement in certain things. Enough with the youth social trauma porn.
Not sad at all. I am glad to see that the market place is working. Punishing companies like Intel that decided to focus more on top management enrichment than quality products. Intel had the chance to do the iPhone CPU and turned it down. Intel was the #1 chip manufacturer in the world but ended up falling behind. Intel had the chance to be the #1 ARM manufacturer in the world but decided not to. And yet the Intel CEO’s who made these decision were all rewarded with massive bonuses. So much for accountability.
My speculation:

It looks exactly like Robinhood (a liquidity issue), but without the faceless an unaccountable entity sitting behind them telling them to suspend trading.

These guys appear to be acting as middlemen between their New Zealand customers and several exchanges. Bank transfers take days to finalize (and weeks to settle), so their business appears to be built around capitalizing on that time opportunity and allowing their customers to lock-in quotes without having to wait for their funds to appear in their exchange account if they dealt directly with an exchange.

While the crypto markets are stable and the volume is predictable, everything is fine and they can maintain a balance on their exchanges and in their bank account. A sudden surge in volume (due to a massive price swing) means having to close shop and suspend trading while the transfer from exchange to bank account (or the other way) finalizes.

Airtable is a popular option.
I've always believed that this was the science behind acupuncture. You're deliberately reminding the body of old scar tissue and blocked lymphs that the body has forgotten about. This causes localized inflammation and the bodies own response to go back in and clear out tissue or built up crap.

I haven't heard anyone else describe it that way but it makes sense to me. Wonder if this would be better than applying repetitive stress injuries to an existing problem.
I’ve thought about that too. I’m aware that I am biased and assuming that every home town is a great place to live.

Malware is more broad, and includes things that don't send any information back, like viruses.

What I mean was that I saw no middle - people working okay hours and enjoying themselves. You had motivated people producing good work with decent load but hating it, like me. Or people not caring and coasting doing little work - also like me when I got depressed from the work. And people super stressed and burning out. But I saw no happy people.

Its equally bad on Google's flagship Pixel 6 Pro. There are three tabs in the gPay app and its about 2FPS as it animates between the tabs. Scrolling is janky.
Another example of such overlap is readily found in contemporary South Korea. The southwest provinces of North and South Jeolla were the core of the ancient state of Baekje that disappeared in 660 CE, at the hands of its rival to the east, Silla, based in the current Gyeongsang provinces. The border between the two -- the Seomjin River -- still marks a striking linguistic, culinary, and political boundary between the more progressive Jeolla and conservative Gyeongsang.
Instacart Files Confidentially for an IPO That Could Happen This Year
Not a crypto optimist at all, just trying to be objective. For both crypto and gold, the price is supported by the amount of people willing to buy it as a store of value (yes, gold is also used for jewelry and some manufacturing, but that's a secondary use).

Crypto is new, so it's mostly recognized by early adopters - people that are more likely to change their mind in the changing circumstances. There's also a lot of the "get rich quick" crowd, money laundering, illegal purchases, and other activities there, but these are all the factors that support the price of crypto.

So yes, it's extremely volatile. Yes, its price depends on the mood of lots of moody people. But it's still a valid commodity backed by human greed.

You can have a point and make an argument while showing any kind of dignity or intelligence...or you can go looking for a response and titter "u mad?" when you get one.

Looks like you made it clear what you're doing.
If a treatment can't seriously harm you when overdone, it probably isn't doing anything at all (because it's probably doing nothing).

Translation for the non-pilots:

The weather at Palm Beach International Airport on the 10’th at 15:53 GMT was: Winds, from the North-Northeast at 11 knots, gusting up to 17 knots. Visibility 10 statute miles. Clouds, some scattered ones at 4,200 and 4,600 feet above the airport ground level. Temperature 26 Celsius, dew point 15 Celsius.

I've had pretty good luck recently with a mix of SUNDAE (https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.06749) and coconet (https://arxiv.org/abs/1903.07227) and/or Music Transformer based internal models recently for modeling very small datasets of polyphonic "midified" music. Research paper hopefully soon to come... Not sure what your pipeline looks like, but those papers might be worth putting on your radar. And as you mention, symbolic music datasets are both surprisingly small, surprisingly low quality, and generally a huge pain to work with. Cool stuff - I like the sax!

For anyone unfamiliar with diffusion models (and coconet / OrderlessNADE), one of the really nice properties of them as opposed to "standard" autoregressive (GPT / RNN) style models, is that you should be able to specify any part, and fill in any other part - rather than being forced to specify the "past" and predict only the "future". The coconet "doodle" is a good example of this interface at work (https://www.google.com/doodles/celebrating-johann-sebastian-...)

XLNet had some of this promise too (https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.08237) but I never had much luck with it as a pure generator. Autoregressive Diffusion models (https://openreview.net/forum?id=Lm8T39vLDTE) have similar properties, but I haven't had time to sus out the subtle differences yet.
in my opinion, getting rid of the GIL is the one thing that Python can do to stave off Julia's eventual dominance of numeric computing. Not indefinitely, but by at least 5 years.

There are still many cases when data scientists don't have a C extension and need to run pure Python functions in parallel, and the GIL makes this an order of magnitude harder (and sometimes slower).

I think the core Python devs have gotten rather too conservative in the language's old age.

No GIL should be "python 4.0"
Excellent display of Sealioning [1] there as I literally shared a link with many articles (from the same publication) that make a strong case for the lab leak origin theory.

I originally completely rejected the lab leak as conspiracy theory to anyone who brought it up, but my opinion has been swayed by several revelations.

To summarize from the wider internet [x]:

- EcoHealth DARPA proposal (DEFUSE)

- HVAC Failures identified at Wuhan prior to Nov 2019

- U.S. intel 3 Wuhan lab researchers ill with COVID like symptoms Nov 2019

- Drastic increase in Wuhan Lab security posture after HVAC failure

- Removal of Wuhan virus databases after HVAC failure

- Request of removal of viral genes from NIH databases

- The various released email documents of internal discussions at NIH

- The unnatural characteristics of the sequence that hint at possible lab origin

The rejected EcoHealth Alliance DARPA documents literally call for the creation of a novel COVID virus with similar features as COVID-19.

Even if it wasn't engineered they were collecting bat coronoviruses there and leaks from labs are not unheard of and have happened in the past at various facilities.

That paints a pretty common sense compelling argument to me.

We currently do not know for sure which is the case but at this point in time the scales tip towards lab for me and the word "strong" is valid. I respect your disagreement though.
