Hi everyone – this is Nate Simpson, Creative Director for Kerbal Space Program 2. We have made the difficult decision to move the release date of KSP 2, which will now launch in early 2023 on PC with our console release later that year.

We are building a game of tremendous technological complexity, and are taking this additional time to ensure we hit the quality and level of polish it deserves. We remain focused on making sure KSP2 performs well on a variety of hardware, has amazing graphics, and is rich with content. We’ve built a spectacular team at Intercept Games – a team that includes, as previously mentioned, key members from the development team behind the original Kerbal Space Program. We have the perfect combination of experienced, passionate, and skilled developers to fully realize this game’s ambitious potential.

We are forever grateful to the KSP community for sticking with us on this journey, and we appreciate your continued support as we push towards the finish line. We can’t wait for everyone to play the game, and we’ll keep sharing more information with you in the coming months.
No FAANG experience, only worked at 2-3 (very) small startups. I have basic JS / Web dev skills. Total of 6 YoE. I created a profile on dice.com and have gotten probably 20+ hiring manager-stage interviews so far.

What industry / YoE / skillset combination do you have? Seems like full stack engineers are writing their checks these days.

Sugars and refined flour does this.

The foods spike your blood sugar and then cause a crash.
Red Hat says they do a lot of testing before anything goes into CentOS Stream. That's what I meant by pre-release testing. Since the changes are intended for RHEL they're already carefully reviewing and cherry-picking everything from upstream anyway. This is a lot different from for example Debian where you have volunteers merging random snapshots from upstream into unstable, and then if that doesn't crash unstable for a week or so it's automatically moved to testing.

CentOS Stream is not for everyone and I don't know what OP's criteria are, but since they're considering Debian and Fedora and are willing to pay for RHEL then their criteria probably allows for CentOS Stream. Alma and Rocky seem okay if you're willing to trust relatively new distros, and Oracle Linux seems okay if you're willing to trust Oracle. They're all valid options depending on your needs.
Whether or not his site is meeting his goals is his business.

I find this a really interesting post, because I'm also dealing with excessive bot traffic (it's generally about half of my overall), and specifically how to salvage analytics data when there's so much noise. Seeing what other people are doing to combat it helps me, regardless of whether you might think of them as successful or not.
In what way do you see a similarity to rabbits? I think of them as being pretty different, with cats being less social and more likely to take risks.
It's literally the defining feature of socialism...

His more recent paper on the move operation[0] goes into some of the details further and while I don't fully understand it myself, the claims he makes along with the proof assistant nature he uses to work through them are fairly compelling.

The simple intuition is that because his CRDT's are associative and everyone else is not using associative data types, he simplifies the space and the impossible becomes possible.

When I see a product that is web3 but I don’t even know it’s web3, I’ll take it seriously. It’s like everyone talking about how MeteorJS is better than vanilla js, you just have to rewrite your app. It’s all hype.

React was “just better” than everything else, and flexible. There was hype, for sure. But you’d only discover React by investigating a company’s stack.
Thanks for building Kagi! Have been enjoying the experience of it this past month
> I don't know, that seems more interesting than most questions that could be asked about Twitter.

Why? Twitter is a for profit corporation. If, on the balance, lying serves their interests (I'm sorry, I meant "is consistent with their fiduciary duty to their shareholders") more than edging up to the line without crossing it, that's what they will do.

Even the watchdog organizations such as the FTC and SEC that police the speech of corporations more or less limit themselves to material statements that move markets or influence consumer behavior in ways that can be considered fraudulent. The FTC, FDA, and others are concerned with a fairly narrow reading of consumer harm, the SEC is motivated by the health and trustworthiness of the public market. In any case, there pretty much always has to be some sort of alleged harm. Lying per-se is hardly ever forbidden. So if the advantages of a lie outweigh the (risk adjusted) penalties and reputational risks, that's that.
The big sells for Hangouts and Teams is that they have video. Slack doesn't so you have to find a video conference provider as well like Zoom. Also Teams integrates more easily with the existing Microsoft stack (office, outlook, etc.) that a ton of non-tech companies are on.

I think a lot of tech companies struggle to break into the non-tech world. Slack might be ubiquitous for SWEs but my SO who works in traffic engineering will probably never use it (they use Teams).
Bitcoin has inflation. One coin every ten minutes. Tic toc next block.

There's the question of when new money enters the world, who gets to have it? Should it be randomly distributed, or should one guy in charge of the money printer get to keep most of it for himself and all his friends, lie about having done that, and then gaslight people to say all of that was okay anyway?
Seems like AWS has really only gone down in price on the pre-provisioned EC2 instances, not the on-demand. On-demand is more inline with what Digital Ocean provides.
Democracy is orthogonal to socialism. The one says how you choose the government; the other says what the government's modus operandi is.
I wanted to build something Plex-like so sadly real block storage was a requirement, otherwise indexing and seeking could be a pain. If not I would use Wasabi or other S3-likes
No. The Nordic countries all have market economies.

dictionary.com: a theory or system of social organization that advocates the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, capital, land, etc., by the community as a whole, usually through a centralized government.

merriam-webster.com: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods

Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy: Political system in which the (major) means of production are not in private or institutional hands, but under social control.

Wikipedia (just for the heck of it): Socialism is a political, social, and economic philosophy encompassing a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership[1][2][3][4] of the means of production,[5][6][7][8] as opposed to private ownership.

I'm not "confusing socialism with communism". You're confusing "market economy with high levels of government spending" with "socialism".
The best metric is your own intuition about how productive people are being and their output, subjectively thinking about the quantity, quality, and impact. It becomes pretty obvious who is contributing a lot and who isn’t. You don’t need to track metrics.
A lot of people get one cat and they get used to being alone. People who get more than one cat generally get them from the same litter.

But cats are social animals and will absolutely bond with each other. Even cats not from the same litter will bond with other cats. Usually it takes a careful and patient introduction, which people don't realize. All they'll do is put the two cats in the same room, observe them fight, and come to the conclusion that their cat just wants to be alone. But that probably isn't the case at all.
How about sonic mining?

> And Julia provides no way of specifying the behaviour of abstract types.

I'm not sure if "no way" is accurate. There are interfaces and one could use traits. As cited above, we could use `eachindex` or `CartesianIndices` to get a list of the valid indices. The problem is enforcing and testing these interfaces.
Thank you for the feedback, it's appreciated, and we are working on it.
But SES is not on the Executive Schedule, is my point.

Musk has been claiming full self-driving to be just around the corner for 9 years straight. Every year.

I like the idea of putting tests like this online. But I don't see why the camera was necessary. Why not just describe what is needed, put up a timer, and then ask people if it hurt? Way simpler, way safer.
> Julia ships an entire patched version of LLVM to fix correctness bugs in numerical methods

Sounds like the banana ships with the gorilla which requires the entire jungle, and we're too busy fixing the gorilla to give the banana our undivided attention.
I didn't see the original comment, but this is generally a place for curious discussion and thoughtful comments. Jokes frequently get misinterpreted.
I mean if you read the summary section it kind of is?

What you say the point of the article is? Submarine story is an acceptable answer.
Problem with these plugins is that if you have a large database with posts/pages, it could run into memory/CPU issues while trying to generate the static files and can intermittently fail unless you are on a beefy server.
Use an adblocker I guess? On desktop it's (visually) fine even without an adblocker.
This is why cloud providers build in as much lock in as possible in the form of managed services - eventually they won't want to decrease prices every year and you'll have so much code written against their proprietary cloud widgets that it'll be more expensive to move than to pay their increases.

If you ever take a vendor specific certification, it's all about how you should use their specific cloud features in order to "properly" architect the solution for the cloud. Often these services do in fact result in cheaper bills, but there are other costs - and no provider I've seen has ever made any commitment regarding future prices like you mention expecting.
Is there a reasonable refuge for people who are:

1) Sick of YAML-as-a-scripting-language

2) Not on the k8s train yet

3) Fans of operational simplicity, like Ansible's (no persistent agent required on the other end, just operates over ordinary SSH, that kind of thing)

?
You are assuming they are reporting actual death numbers instead of suppressing them, which is an assumption I don't know why anyone would make.

There is no need to assume that, I am covered by GDPR. I listed what the data in question is - tens of megabytes of text providing IP address, location, ISP, etc. is sufficient to personally identify perhaps even better than a name or similar, in entropy-bit terms.
Hum... That's one parser, in one language.

Between all those links there doesn't even seem to exist a design document, much less a full specification for the language.

That is really not enough. If it solves your specific use case, great, use it. But it's not a solution to the YAML problems.
Tesla does not use LIDAR.
A lot of these issues can be fixed. Adding robust type constraints (e.g. traits) and accompanying "static analysis" tooling would help a lot. Julia can learn a lot from ML-family languages (e.g. OCaml, Haskell) in that regard. And there are efforts in the Julia community to add these features via third-party libraries. However, I don't see things improving unless such features are baked into the language and used more ubiquitously in open source modules.
Solved problem? Most free-tier cloud storages won't even hold a half-hour long 4k video.

Uploading Gigabytes of media via p2p takes minutes nowadays, but you have to either pay or use p2p software to actually send it to another person.

The load on this cell is a microcontroller with a power consumption of 11.2 uW/MHz. There is no information about what the controller is actually doing but safe to say it's closer to zero than max capacity. We are likely talking on the order of milliwatts, if that. I could make similar power with a potato or a lemon

Democratic socialism is a type of socialism. That is like saying, "Oaks are not trees, but deciduous trees."
I wonder how much of this is just that Julia is more composable than most people are used to, and the community hasn't yet developed the patterns and culture that are needed to avoid these kinds of problems.

I'm thinking, for example, of the way that Smalltalkers often create parameters with type-evocative names, such as "aString". Or Objective-C with two-letter prefixes to work around lack of namespaces. Or even the Java "EntityAdaptorFactoryFactory" design aesthetic. (Some of you will shudder, and I'm with you, but it did solve real problems that the Java world was facing.)

Julia is still a pretty young language, and it's probably only recently that the ecosystem has gotten big enough to hit these problems.

Edit: come to think of it, one of the issues that the Java folks were dealing with was lack of composability. :-/

Was that because McDonalds is healthier in Russia than elsewhere, or just because the rest of Russian restaurants food is even worse?
Any provider with a very cheap or free cloud tier is gonna be blacklisted somewhere; it can be hard to get an IP that doesn't appear (spin one up and test some blacklist checkers to see).

It can take months to spin up an IP correctly.
Everyone other than the Chinese government seems to agree that a zero covid policy isn't realistic anymore. And empirically, they haven't succeeded. But ... why is that the case? Why _doesn't_ an ultra-strict lockdown for this long prevent spread (and allow existing cases to resolve)? What are the remaining opportunities for it to spread?

Throughout 2021, I had sort of told myself that most of the harms of the pandemic were optional, b/c if we really wanted to, we could have given everyone 3 weeks of food, meds, etc, shut literally everyone inside their homes at the same time, no grocery stores, not parks, whatever, and it would have been way less cost and stress and trauma than the path we have taken. But ... evidently that's not true. Why not?
Coming from Scala, I find positional decomposition a huge mistake.

In Scala, constructing a `case class` allows positional/named arguments, which prevents some bugs. But destructring has to be positional. Where is the mathematical beauty of duality?

Also if I only want a few fields from a wide record, I have to add the underscores for all other fields.
`case SomeClass(_, _, _, field1, field2) =>`
And when I add another field, all those `case`s have to be changed.

OCaml gets it right. Pattern matching records uses named fields. It has field punning, you only have to write the name once if new variable's name is the field name (like JS). Extra fields are discarded with one single `; _` in the pattern.

I don't really care what Java does. I just hope Kotlin won't mess it up.
The guy was running a blatant Ponzi scheme (20% risk free yoy return for anyone investing in a 'stable' coin is a Ponzi), and it's the fourth time he's tried this (it's the first time it grew to multiple billions).

He's not stupid, he's just a predator, and just like any other predator, belongs in prison.
"China hiding real Covid deaths by masking cause of death: Report"

"Amid a massive surge in COVID-19 cases in China, Beijing is trying to hide the real death toll by masking the cause of death. Citing Financial Times, Taiwan News reported that if someone dies after contracting COVID-19 but had, for example, cancer, heart disease, or diabetes at the time, Chinese hospitals would not classify the death as resulting from COVID-19, but as a chronic illness instead. The faulty methodology was confirmed by Jin Dong-yan, a virologist at Hong Kong University."

"The numbers are not accurate, but Shanghai hospitals are not necessarily doing this on purpose. From the start, China had this method of recording deaths," he added."

I, basically, had this back in college. I realize I’m dating myself now, but, back before laptops were inexpensively available, I had a “mobile electric typewriter.” No Internet and I simply used it to write my term papers while away from school or home/on the beach. It was somewhat bulky and had a small screen, but I was able to write my papers without white-out and I had no distractions from the technology.
At minimum, HNers take the site guidelines pretty seriously: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Shawarma joints are not the pinnacle, or even the mean, of corporate conscientiousness.
I don't know what TikTok is but Reddit and Hacker News are not "social media", they are just discussion forums.

Not all online communities are social media. The key feature of social media is that you chose WHO to follow instead of WHAT to follow. That's the part that makes it "social", because you create a graph of social connections as a fundamental part of being a user of the site. This is, not incidentally, what makes social media extremely attractive to advertisers.

In Singapore? Maybe that's not where some relevant parties are. I'm not a lawyer. I'm sure there are more things in this world that can cause impact besides existing regulation though.
Why not? Regular ARC works fine on my Denon/LG setup. Is eARC lacking support because of a driver issue they could fix, or some kind of licensing issue?
I detect a few non sequitors and failures of scale here.
If I were concerned about domestic inflation-driven social unrest and/or wanted to send a stern message to the Zhang Shanghai CCP faction about who is really in control of China... this would be one way of doing it, saving face behind Covid. It also provides a similar means of not following through on mutual defense commitments that may have existed between Russia and China.
I'm not sure I understand the theory of what motivates the automated "powered by" searches; can anyone explain it (or an alternate theory) further?
FMA is only implemented in hardware on Haswell and later uArches. If you’re running on (or compiling for) IVB or earlier, you’ll get a libcall instead, and MSVC’s has been broken since forever.
Flashy: Your message or platform is emotive or highly sensory for any one of thousands of reasons. A big one being your audience. Or, if informational, you play to a subversive position.

Simple: Your message or platform is aligned with themes that are generally economical, efficient, informational. Or, if emotive, they intentionally play to an underdog position.

I'd generally be careful about asking people from a simple place whether simple or flashy is best, so it's an interesting post :-)
not saying aws ec2 is cheaper. it's just that over the year, the prices are always going down. I can't recall the last time it went up.
Carl's Jr used to have a Six Dollar Burger but that's gone now that it would cost ... six dollars. (I guess it's been renamed to a ThickBurger).

I was going to say that the email subject said prices "are going up", but it turns out the subject line was "DigitalOcean prices are changing July 1st. Here’s what you need to know." and I just assumed changing went up so strongly I remembered it wrong.

Seems like a really reasonable price increase (though the timeline is short), but they ought to have been a little clearer about exactly what the before-and-after picture was.
The ‘organic’ term here is referring to funding, not design. That said ‘paving the cow paths’ can be a very effective way to build/design what people want.

What this guy's doing is called 'talking your book'. It's typical behaviour for shortsellers, they find a company that has some problems that the market hasn't realized yet, they quietly build up a short position and then go public with their report, trying to convince other investors of their idea, driving down the price and earning a return on their short position. It's not pro bono educational work.
What if you only need to do inserts and never updates?
I don't put a lot of stock in the Russian Imperialism ambitions as being a serious factor in this invasion. I just don't think it adds up. I mean even if Putin was saying this, that doesn't mean a lot. The US, for example, says they're spreading democracy in Afghanistan and Iraq, fro example.

I believe it's far more likely that Russia actually wanted (wants?) a buffer between it and NATO. They've been warning of this since 2008 (when Bush opened the door to Ukraine joining NATO).

Why do I find this more believable? Because it's exactly what imperial powers do. It's exactly what the United States has done. The US almost started World War Three over a Soviet presence in Cuba. The US for 200 years (ie the Monroe Doctrine) has considered the Americas the sole province of the US and any foreign military to be a threat.

China does this too. Mongolia is a buffer to Russia. North Korea is a buffer to South Korea (and the significant US military presence there).

For Imperialist ambitions to make sense, Russia would have to either occupy Ukraine on a long term basis or install a puppet regime (eg like Belarus). Both are doomed from the start. The Ukraine is too large to occupy and would be too expensive. The USSR couldn't even maintain a puppet government in Afghanistan (and nor could the US obviously).
Just swapping the two terms around does not mean the same thing. "Democratic socialism" is socialism. "Social democracy" is still capitalistic with an expanded role of the state. Go educate yourself.
Electricity costs are going up. Replacement hardware is more expensive (and in some cases impossible to find). Inflation means you have to pay employees more. All vendors have bumped up their prices as well.

Why do you think prices “should be going down”?

> Why Are Running Shoes So Chunky?

Because expensive running shoes are not made for running: they're fashion items that happen to suitable for running.

Simple running shoes (that is, non-fashion-items) can be found for like 25€ at Decathlon, and they're not clunky at all.

They are absolutely fine, but you can't ask 200+ euros for those.
