Yeah this is what I thought also, but fuchs's answer makes a lot of sense, and I have seen how that approach to looking forward really worked. But you're right, I did get that feeling too from the blog post.

Perhaps just a line about wanting to look forward and not dwell on the past would have clarified it.
Have you not been through one of these cycles before? When things get bad, there is nowhere to jump ship to, for quite some time.

Hopefully we're not heading there, but as the message says, "things don't look good".
I work on a cross-platform App used by millions of of people and one day during event that runs on our App google blacklisted out domain as phishing (for all of chromes) because we had too many dots url in the url and too many requests coming into the service to quickly.

So even IF you DO get past the ban-hammer, there is always another ban-hammer just round the corner if you app gets too much traction.

Google is great until you get caught in the web of censorship.
Apple is great on the surface but a hot-mess of bugs under the hood.

Devs at chrome seem more compentant then the devs who work who on webkit. Both just serve to reinforce parent companies positions. The APIs that the parent companies use, most of the time, the rest of the APIs, its anyones guess when they will break release to release.
Windows Vista (released in 2006, just about 15 years ago) could survive GPU driver crash with most UI programs intact. I don't think Linux has that capability to this day.

> Because of the deficit in stimulus, people with untreated ADHD are statistically much more likely to have a substance abuse disorder (SAD); but in many cases, treating their ADHD (with medication and cognitive behavioral therapy) has the side effect of treating their SAD

I feel like I am one of the rare people that developed a SAD from medically treating ADHD. It's not from the intended effects of the medication, but from trying to treat the side-effects.
A few minutes ago, you were calling it a "pretty extreme data leak" and "millions of dollars" so I think he'd at least know how to validate the leak and enter it into HIBP.
This is terrible advice. Do not talk to the police. You have nothing to gain and everything to lose. Contact a lawyer.

> (1) Rates of obesity in lab rats -- whose diets haven't changed -- have also increased over the last 50 years. Do they lack willpower too?

There are so many explanations for this outside of "some environmental factor causing everyone to get fat" that I don't think it needs explaining.

> Average calorie consumption hasn't changed much over the last 50 years, and nor has calorie expenditure

The methods for estimating these are likely wildly off. At face value, this would be an incredibly difficult statistic to obtain accurately. Nearly impossible. I'd need access to more data than is available to trust such a tremendous claim. Trying to simplify complex data like this is borderline pseudoscience.

That being said, I'm not saying CICO is the casual explanation. I'm saying we have a large surplus of resources, and humans are designed to consume. Overcoming that drive is likely beyond many people.
I think the dominant effect is because the whole field is rapidly growing, so newly trained and younger is a disproportionately high amount relative to if it was at a steady state.
> you make it sound like this is some kind of solved problem, but it really isn't

Fair, but you straight up claimed it was an "infamous" problem, and it isn't that either.

Really what I'm saying is that it's No Big Deal, especially in comparison with where the rest of the industry is on features like this, and that the people out there claiming it is are mostly just trying to spin you on their investment ideas.
Don't know if you've owned e.g. a 1980s Toyota Corolla in an environment that's always-wet, always-salted for six months a year like Western Norway.

The difference to modern cars is night and day: The Corolla rusts to death in five years, as in you can stick your whole arm through the holes in the wheel well if the structural integrity of the chassis doesn't fail first. Whereas most cars produced after 1990 will last about two decades without owner rustproofing.

You obviously can't dictate that all redox reactions will halt, but the manufacturers have absolutely done something that makes their cars rust slower.

The "end-user rustproofing" we do here generally consists of spraying some super-heavy, super-sticky oil-based coating onto the metal so it doesn't get wet. But this obviously complicates other maintenance.
People visit Buddhist temples as social get togethers. It’s common for friends to meet up, walk through a temple, and pray. There are also very devout branches and even political parties with strong Buddhist connections.

A free market is an economical system, anarchy is a political one. They are orthogonal to each other. In fact there are anarcho capitalists (the most extreme liberterians) and anarchistic socialists.

Investment returns? There are many developing nations that have higher than both. They are significantly based on risk of the investment.

So? They are also in the most regulated (least free market) state in the US, that really doesn't prove anything.
In the US unauthorized access of a private system, particularly with financial records or other protected data, is a crime: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1030 Doesn't matter how you got access, it just matters that you did it.

This was back when I was a student and had the FX and one GPUs. Getting an internship meant that I had the money for an upgrade, and the cheapest, most straightforward was to get a second GPU, or so I thought. Wasn't even that cheap because I had to put both the GPUs under water to keep them from overheating when both in the same PC.
Caffeine can affect your heart. Some people are more sensitive to it than others. My suggestion is to slowly stop drinking anything with caffeine. A friend of mine had heart problems but would not stop drinking drinks with caffeine and ended up dead due to an erratic heart rhythm. He would drink a pot of coffee in the morning and a six pack of coke in the afternoon. He would call his six pack a way to come down from the morning's coffee. Was it the caffeine? We will never know but I'm sure it did not help?

These statements stand unchanged. The usage of "pretty extreme" could be regarding the "quality" of data, not quantity. Compared to the usual data leaks on HIBP it seems like an occurrence that happens frequently and the affected user count is abysmally low.

This does feel familiar -- except that in my case, after a couple of years in that position, all-of-a-sudden I realised I wasn't that good a developer any more. That I had stopped learning a while before. The solution for me, and it worked, was to leave, and work for a company with a more serious engineering culture.
I still haven't been able to get suspend to work on my high-spec last-gen Framework, despite following all the troubleshooting and disjointed recommendations in the forum because the company won't just publish fixes for common problems directly.

Suspend will sap 30% of my energy by morning, even in "deep" sleep, and the computer won't wake properly. The trackpad will work intermittently or really fast after sleeping.

I have to turn the thing all the way off every time I use it. Which, alright, forced asceticism. Maybe a growth opportunity.

This is more of a generational cashout. Social security will see the same effects at some point. You can see it from the ludicrous vanguard distributions from 2021. Turns out the stock market was just a ponzi scheme after all.
You can just specify the type along with the variable itself instead of relying on type inference in this case, which makes it look a lot better I think.

There is also the collect_vec method from Itertools that avoids this. I normally am not a big fan of pulling crates for little things like this, but the Itertools crate is used in rustc itself, so you already are trusting it if using rust.

I do agree that rust syntax can be a bit verbose sometimes but I actually prefer the syntax to most other languages! I would have preferred if it would have been less inspired by the C family of languages syntax wise, but that would have likely hindered adoption.

It’s the other way around: LPs are telling VCs not to expect the allocations they might have expected. I hear 66% reduction from institutions, anecdotally. For several years going forward.

If an institution had 1:1 allocation public:private and public drops 80% then rebalancing will take a while.

If every startup and fund simultaneously took a 80% haircut, things would be smoother, quicker.

Unicorns don’t want to be marked at $200m and $10m preseed don’t want to be the $2m that is far more accurate value.

This dynamic will take a few years… private slowly coming to realize the new reality, public stopping the bleed, and allocations moving more public for several years.
Mobile apps were just emerging in 2008 and stimulated VC interest. I think it's unlikely that this current downturn in the business cycle will get saved by the same magnitude of technology entrant.

MathJax 3 currently only supports the default font, as more general font support is still under development [1]. According to the relevant GitHub issue, font support is planned to be part of the next major release, which is supposed to arrive sometime this year [2]. This should then include Gyre Pagella out of the box (as was the case for MathJax 2), but also make it possible to use custom fonts (which apparently wasn’t possible with MathJax 2) [3].

I have a soft spot for that CPU. My first computer was a TI99/4a when I was about 14 or 15. I started with BASIC, then learned assembly language on that machine. I give it a lot of credit for starting the trajectory my future took.
Yea, so pretty much every programmer needs to be aware of thinking about lifetimes.

The classic issues are creating a local and then giving a reference to it, to something much longer lived, or even undying. In that last case, if your doing it a lot, with no regard to the objects change in lifetime, your effectively creating a leak (I can guarantee you someone, somewhere, is making this mistake in js right now). Most collection strategies won't touch an object that still has a reference to it.

The second issue that became really common when people stopped paying attention to lifetimes, is that many resources you may be using (file handles, db connections, etc...) have very different constraints than memory. So you have to be cognizant of the fact that even though something has gone out of scope, it's lifetime really doesn't end until the gc gets around to collecting it. This is the reason special syntax and functions, like "with" and Dispose had to be added to languages like C# and Java. Python with it's reference counting maybe somewhat less susceptible to this second issue than the others, but it's not immune to it.

Finally in many cases being aware of object lifetimes and specifically manipulating them can get you performance speed ups.
Personally I can find something to like in most architectures.

Cell (for example) was an asymmetric/hybrid multicore CPU; Apple Silicon is perhaps a modern example of asymmetric performance vs. efficiency cores, and also features special-purpose accelerator cores such as the neural engine.

The 432 had capability-based addressing. Speed-over-security has had a good run, but with some disastrous consequences. We may be seeing the return of capabilities with CHERI/ARM.

The 960 was an early superscalar design, supported tag bits, and was also a successful product.

I had this question a while ago, trying to understand what is it about that swiping user experience on dating sites that makes them so appealing?

Obviously, the content matters too but I couldn’t get over the fact that just swiping is fun and maybe there is something in there.

To test my hypothesis, I started working on this project couple of weeks ago to see if swiping can increase "survey" engagement. The results were actually great in the sample size that I tested.

A roundabout way of doing 1+2 could be to find a reputable journalist and explain the situation to them. They could publish a story (possibly requesting comment from the site owners first) on it and keep you anonymous.

This could be a way to do the right thing while lowering your risk of being charged with violating some antiquated hacking law.

But also talk to an attorney before doing that.
Ive moved between segments unlike alot of devs. the experience you have for me highlights just how degraded the dev community has become.

ie. in defence, the standard is always ok to great devs. In Enterprise, its a mix of crap, crappier and ok and great.

What your doing is holding up the team of crappy to ok devs. the fact that you cant have technical converations anymore just highlights this.
I've done a fair amount of similar disclosures and have had good and bad experiences.

First, consider consulting a lawyer. Then, consider sending it to a reporter who specializes in cybersecurity and who isn't shy about reporting on these issues. They have protocols for this sort of thing and will do proper disclosures beforehand. A way to think about it is that once the reporter reaches out, the company will be in panic mode and try to correct the problem ASAP before bad press gets out. They understand that because a reporter is reaching out to them that an article is in the works and their only option is damage reduction, considering the worse alternative. Reaching out on your own without protections will lead to headaches.

IANAL.
> Every device will have a unique IPv6 address.

You get a unique IP with NAT too, it's just not globally routable which is actually really nice since most people don't want the entire planet to see their internet network and folks running servers and P2P applications are generally capable enough at networking to configure their router to allow communication even with NAT in place.

If IPv6 wants to do away with NAT, what solution does IPv6 offer for preventing device enumeration and tracking?
For every person singing it's praises, there are dozens of game developers who were singing with gladness when it was gone. The PS3 devs I've spoken with (you aside) universally hated the platform and spoke of how much more dev time it took to launch games on the platform to achieve mediocre results.

If the chip were so wonderful to work on, then it would still be in use today as the theoretical performance per area beats everything else by a wide margin.

Roadrunner was built in 2008. It would still be just barely off the top 500 list in 2021, but was decommissioned just FIVE years later in 2013. Its x86 replacement was already underway in 2010 TWO years after its launch.

I'm glad you got to work with the architecture you loved for so many years, but I think the rest of the world disagrees with your assessment.
I live ridiculously frugal in a emerging economy country. It's not that I actively look to drop out of consumption, it's just that I lifestyle seemed to settle on this way of being. My entire cost of living is probably less than the cost of ownership of my small truck back home.

I don't consume things which use corn as an ingredient. I don't use seed oils. My food is mostly wild fish (local markets.) If Russia were unleash nuclear war, I probably wouldn't get hit.

I guess I would still be screwed if there were a global food catastrophe because it would affect me somehow.

No reason for this comment other than it's strange to see that the solutions on this list wouldn't apply to me.
My understanding is that the huge amount of corporate and household debt makes genuinely high interest rates quite untenable. Although I've just heard this, I don't have the expertise to make that claim myself.
Huh! I was expecting adding u128 integers to be slower because of the cast; but it looks like llvm is (correctly) realising the upcast + downcast has no effect and replacing it with a single u64 add in release mode.

It also will happily vectorize and all the rest:

I want to do some additional testing to check if it also optimizes correctly for wasm and in 32 bit contexts, but generally I'm shocked that works so well. Thanks!
Thank you for the example, probably 53/udp, which one can set up a NAT rule to direct all outgoing 53 to the local filtering DNS resolver.
> Unix shell has survived more or less intact for 50 years. That implies no significantly better CLI language has been invented

False. Network effect is an equally good explanation. In fact, one of the arguments that repeatedly crops up on HN in favour of bash is "it's installed already".

The first thing I install on a Linux box is powershell. Your mention of the DOS shell is a straw man - it hasn't been state of the art on Windows for nearly twenty years.

So you picked a bad example but your point has merit? No. I don't think it does. Kernel devs see problems with fork. Fork is thirty years old, maybe forty? Sometimes things need to change.
I really don’t think that’s how people interpreted this post. I left one of those relatable comments but I skipped over the 10x comment. In general, if you are consistently above average (which I would argue a large crowd in HN could be) you will end up with similar feelings as OP.

Coming back to this thread now after a few hours, people seemed to have fixated on their 10x comment. It seems like a weird fixation to me.
