I once had a function call in a rather large outer function causing unbalanced stack operations. It would pop more space than it pushed to invoke the function. Thankfully that meant a pretty quick crash. After trying a number of things, the solution in the end was to call the function twice since it was idempotent.

World Cup has copious amount of hookup culture (just look through Tinder when the season plays in your city), Grindr and general clubbing in these areas.

I've been a visitor during a World Cup and its not just the football people go for.

There's even a term for it: World Cup fever, not just isolated to world cups, many other sporting events have the same problem of being super spreading events for STIs https://sexualhealthbucks.nhs.uk/latest/world-cup-fever/

I'd also say prolonged contact and mingling is worse then a short one like above, plenty of time to pub and club crawl, sleep with multiple partners, allowing disease to expell after its normal 5-6day incubation period.

The article jumps between multiple experiments (some laser some microwave), but if you're interested in the the recent 10 GHz microwave experiment the authors were a part of (and which was on the HN frontpage recently) -- 1.6kW delivered over 1km -- the details were published in [1].

Very relevant datapoint: the transmitter source was 100kW, fed into a 5.4m dish. The receiver array was 2x2m. The end to end efficiency, which this article pointedly avoids, is on the order of 1-2%, over 1km.

Yes it can, but bitcoin is more than a crypto asset. It's turned into a cult that believes certain tenets. That's why I believe that it will never disappear even if the price falls to a fraction of a cent. A radical change like a change to a Ethereum token would never be accepted.

I'm finding it difficult to engage with the "Let's pretend USD is a ponzi scheme" pre-condition of some of this.

I also think that the premise that RAI is distinct from ETH is... tenuous. The problem that UST-TERRA had was that it was trivially the same, but that means what we're saying is that if RAI succeeds to any significant extent then it puts ETH in a situation where it may also death spiral. I feel like I'm agreeing with Vitalik there.

>Another extreme case worth examining is where RAI becomes the primary appliation on Ethereum. In this case, a reduction in expected future demand for RAI would crater the price of ETH. In the extreme case, a cascade of liquidations is possible, leading to a messy collapse of the system. But RAI is far more robust against this possibility than a Terra-style system.

I think the conclusion of the 2nd experimnet is "Don't buy RAI". It's just that if the return on RAI is positive, well, buy it but know it's going to explode. If it's negative well... You're earning a negative return well done.

> Terms of Service don't trump lawful orders issued by a government.

No, obviously they do not. But misrepresenting your policies (i.e., lying) to your users ("we don't track IP addresses" was understood literally at the time) is a serious error and, especially if you're marketing to a privacy-aware crowd, one of your top priorities should be to maintain their trust or else your customer base is going to fall out from under you.

What's disingenuous is implying that lawful orders trump the ethics of lying to your customer base, when saying "we don't track IPs..." but meaning "...until the government asks us to".

If we do end up in a place where we ban guns, the backlash of that will probably be to ban things that other interest groups like that "cause harm" with similar statistics. I find that expressly illiberal, and I'm not really a fan of what a small minority of vocal liberals really want, which is to ban them or make the system so frustrating that no one can enjoy them.

I think quite a few people are confused by the line about it becoming Perl 7 "sometime in the future". I think it is unlikely that that is the distant future, myself. I think the main hang-up is they'd like to get the new built-in object system (Corinna) working.

If you're a "move fast and break things" kind-of guy, watching the perl devs in action will annoy you, because they're committed to not breaking things, and if they have to move slow to avoid it, they will.

On the other hand, if you want to be sloppy with your own perl code, or work with CPAN modules that move faster, that's up to you.

>If you become successful, you can hire enough developers to pay back the depth in due time.

How many successful companies actually do this?

At one point in my career I transitioned from a startup to one that had been acquired some 12 years before, and found it to be even more chaotic than the startup. Instead of playing a frantic game of whack-a-mole with all the pivots and feature ideas of the founders, you had a few dozen teams playing whack-a-mole with the pet projects of their respective product managers who were trying to make a name for themselves. Which was much worse because you had to coordinate with every other of those teams, and of course work with all the integrations with the parent company.

Charitably speaking, maybe these older successful companies are bad simply because the field of software engineering was still too immature when they came about, and today's startups will actually pay back their debt when they become successful in the future. Sure, we have better tools now than then, but we still don't have a static analysis tool that can determine if we built the right or wrong thing for an ever changing market.

I'll be honest, this is really the first time I've seen a tech circle in which this whole surveillance apparatus is not a common established knowledge.
Contains a quote which Im partially excerpting Broadcomcs mission statement:

> We seek to achieve this through responsibly financed acquisitions of category-leading businesses and technologies, as well as investing extensively in research and development, to ensure our products retain their technology leadership. This strategy results in a robust business model designed to drive diversified and sustainable operating and financial results.

I just struggle so very much to see Broadcom as a participant in the tech world. This mission statement speaks of conventional kind of market cornering, finding & maintaining exploitable positions.

But like Nvidia for example they kind of just dont give a shit about anything but their own bag. They're in some imaginarium of their own creation that sees only vicious machiavellian competition. But they just have zero interest in working with the greater tech industry about them, in cooperating. Right now the tech world still has places for such high tech idiot savants, people incapable of complex adulting with others, but I just so so wonder how these go-it-alone paths these companies walk is going to work out for them, how they expect people to think of & consider their goods when they are so far away from the rest of civization, so much their own frontier.

I thought VMware was doing a pretty good job generally. Their kubernetes distro (Tanzu) was paving a lot of cowpaths people have, building on a lot deployment/packaging tools more dev than ops focused. VMware had a ton of old business but they cared about staying relevant & having a meaningful spot in the emerging world (a lot of this via Pivotal). There was a huge contract shop building software, and that only existed because these folks understood & worked with industry, leveraged things like open source. I want to see a Broadcom that can get out of tbeir high tech castle & work with the world, want to see them try showing up, but right now shovelling devices out the door is still doing good enough that they dont seem to have any desire to adapt their mission or strategy.
I've been working as a freelancer for many years, billing hourly. I have absolutely no hesitation to take vacations. If anything, it makes me more likely to take a few more days off, since I don't feel bad about a client paying me for that time. I routinely take months-long sabbaticals between gigs, and use them to learn new things. I take extra long vacations over the winter holidays.

If someone is feeling an urgency to work more hours beyond what provides true value for their life, the problem isn't how one's invoices are arranged. The problem is one's attitude.

> And if ARM beats x86, it won't be, straightforwardly, "because RISC is better" – x86 will have lost for business reasons, and it could have gone the other way for business reasons. But the fact that it will have lost to a RISC – that will be because RISC is technically better. That's why there's no CISC competitor to lose to.

Yosef must be using a different definition of RISC from Jim Keller, because in Jim’s interviews he says that modern ARM is essentially a CISC processor.
>in order to get compensated

That language is based on the assumption that they're not already being compensated.

Their compensation is what they agreed to accept as payment for their labor. So they're already being compensated. If they want to "own" part of the company outside of this agreement, they need to buy a piece of it. If you want that as part of your employment agreement, negotiate it beforehand, either individually, or as part of a union effort. If you can't negotiate it through those efforts, then accept the fact that the employer believes they can get a better deal on the labor.

It's not difficult to hear, it's just not true. I don't know what sort of companies you've worked at where employees are completely fungible, but I've had the opposite experience, working with many talented and hard working people who make major contributions that help deliver hundreds of millions in revenue. Perhaps you joined them when they were already unicorns and the playbook / moat was already developed, but at startups there's nothing BUT the people. You think the Collisons are writing all the code and conceptualizing all the new products and figuring out how to take them to market, or creating and maintaining a high performing engineering culture, or [50,000 other things that need to happen to reach $95B]?

If that were true, it would be weird that companies work so hard to acquire, retain, and develop talent.

You're pretty selective about the time periods you base your arguments on, ignoring anything before the 80s but you're certain there can't be another Chechen war 15 years after the last one - because it will always be bastion of stability now and tinderboxes aren't a thing. All of those countries listed have had liberal periods (Iraq - check your history) but you fail to explain how the complex causes for subsequent breakdowns can be simply distilled down to 'because Islam'.

As if Mubarak or Gaddafi or Saddam were religious figures. Millions of Muslims stood ready to build on liberal reforms and died for it. You don't get to just ignore them because you can't deal with nuance.

I could use the same logic to ask you to name one province under Russian rule that hasn't turned into a corrupt political dumpster fire. If Chechnya/Dagestan/Cherkess/Tatarstan etc. were the only such wastelands your case against Islam might be less empty - but it's the same for every oblast in the entire country.

Russia is illiberal - because Putin hates liberalism - and that is why it will impose illiberal systems on its territories. That is enough of a reason to criticise it (because murdering critics and journalists for example is bad). Don't pretend it's hamstrung by the brutality of its uncivilised Muslims, that's just you projecting your bigotry.

We don't like Putin -> We don't like his impact on Russia -> And you're damned right we're going to say something about it.
