karma, the west's model doesn't encourage positive systemic changes like that, people want to protect their position, their hold of power, while at the same time killing competition

They killed Carlos Ghosn because he wasn't american, and the US had tesla in mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WeoeJyJmN4

Now they pay the price, western's customers can't even afford western's EVs, they'll fall back to chinese brand soon

Unless the USA decide to invade China

It always come down to the same problem, current western leaders are not on par with t heir past predecessors

Gold spoon fed kids taking power, here is the result, attach your seat belt, turbulence ahead!
That is something slightly different, but thanks!
It's not "I wish I didn't lose a few life experiences". Will Wheaton has expressed several times that he has severe chronic depression and anxiety. There's a lot of range between "can't pay rent" and "severely depressed millionaire" and I don't think people want either of those extremes.
Now look at all the superhero movies etc. I agree with you, it's just that the whole entertainment industry now is filled with this - unoriginal recycling in high-volume production.
The comment you're replying to is discussing using heat for pressure, not electrical pumps.
> The actual tactics are even more complex than FPTP

Maybe marginally? How would you describe the tactics of FPTP? They may be simpler, but in some elections it is the difference of expressing your actual preferences and voting for "who you have to."

The nice thing with AV that I often see overlooked is that it always in a voters interest to vote for their favorite candidate. This is called the favorite betrayal criterion, and nearly all ordinal voting methods (inc FPTP) fail it.

Even still though - the UX, strategy, counting, and expressing results of ranked choice voting (IRV) is considerably more complex than both AV and FPTP. And its failure of the precinct summability criterion is a huge liability that we could just avoid entirely.

If you are in favor of other types of ranking, such as Borda, why not just Score? Score is counted identically, but without the restriction of "you can only vote for one candidate in each rank or we'll toss your ballot."

I agree that it would be nicer to give a more nuanced vote than just like/dislike, but I personally see AV as a stepping stone to other, more nuanced forms of Cardinal Voting. And who knows? Many online interfaces have moved from the star system in favor of thumbs up/down, and none that I'm aware of use ranking. Maybe there is an argument for a simpler UX in order to get more people to engage.
I think this can only change when we, as a society, expect code literacy from every person that finishes high school.

I don't mean expert programmers, but at least being able to read basic pseudocode algorithms.

It's hard to describe a problem if you don't even understand any language.
But is it Art?
Thank you for honestly stating the issue. Often times I see people get defensive or reactionary and jump to calling racism when simply stating these facts. How on Earth do you expect to solve an issue if you can't even admit it.
Oh, I absolutely loved this when I was a kid. We'd all sit down together as a family every Sunday to watch it.

I've always had a love for archeaology and history, and I think I have that show to thank for it :)

For anyone curious, the whole series is available on YouTube :) It's really not the most exciting show though.
Is it so bad though? Our world has shown capability - still - for improving living conditions. Optimism would say that the child actors of today have a better and fairer shot at a good life than they had 50 (for example) years ago.

Now Harry Potter is pretty old already, and outside Hollywood, but those seemed to fare pretty well.
I've seen most of the architectural problems in consulting - it's amazing how a team of clever engineers can take a simple thing and make it sooo convoluted.

Microservices, craptons of cloud-only dependencies, no way to easily create environments, ORMs and tooling that wraps databases creating crazy schemas... The list goes on and on; if you're early, you could do a lot worse than create a sensible monolith in a monorepo that uses just postgres, redis, and nginx and deploys using 'git pull' ...

It is because there is decades of history of unpatched devices being used as vectors for ddos, entrypoints for horizontal movements inside a secure networks etc.

If you pay attention to the Ukrainian conflict, you will see that the cyber-warfare is going strong (especially in the energy sector), and the internet is indeed a 'threatening' place. Just because you don't consider yourself an interesting target doesn't mean you won't be compromised.

Yes it's unfortunate that MS packages both bug fixes and 'features' in their update process. But as other comments have said, it is better then to migrate away from Windows to another OS which you can keep up to date.

There are many layers to a good defense, but for a regular consumer, simply keeping devices up to date is a low effort way of reducing attack surface area.

I wouldn't run any unpatched device with internet access, be it windows, linux, anything.

I recommend the book "This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends: The Cyberweapons" for a non-technical but interesting read about this topic.
Decoding A City In A Bottle
In our case we abandoned individual repos and went back to a monorepo to solve this issue. In theory the separation of code was nice, but in practice it was a real pain when a service added new APIs you wanted to update another service to use it.

All of our services do also print out in their startup logs what version they are based on git branch name and commit. Monorepo or not this was useful.
Podcast: PhD research on meta programming and static analyzers
The BBC has some really nice old sounds in their archive whose URL escapes me.

LLVM recently introduced a SelectOptimize pass, which is used for select -> branch conversion in the presence of PGO information. This should replace the current non-PGO-aware X86 cmov conversion pass.

The result of this should be that without PGO cmov is preferred, which is the right default (incorrectly picking a cmov is a bit worse than picking a branch, incorrectly picking a branch is catastrophically worse than picking a cmov).
Good analogy, except the Mona Lisa on the wall is not the original, just one of possibly infinitely many copies. NFT does not automatically (or usually) means that you own the copyright to the picture.
Upvoted and agreed, that's a reasonable complaint. Can you provide sources that illustrate the absence of correlation after dividing the dataset?

Unfortunately, yes, people are still building new systems in Perl. In my experience, it's been because existing infrastructure that new systems need is already written in Perl.

I'll note that if you use a strict subset of Perl, and write it well, with lots of unit tests, it's bearable to use. But it falls massively short when it comes to anything concurrent or async. And if you stray into the "clever" subset of Perl, frankly it becomes hell. The ecosystem is also pretty much dead, it's not unusual to find bugs in packages where the issue tracker hasn't been responded to in 10 years, and the issue for the bug you're interested in has been languishing for literally years.
Yes, but I am more tolerant of that personally, because I used to work via elance (upwork has roots there) and you have to respond to many jobs to get attention. So I understand many go wide and wait with details until they get invited to a chat.

Concealing for Freedom: Encryption, Secure Messaging and Digital Liberties
As far as I know there isn't anything like that for cmovs. The cmov depends on the condition, so it will only be executed once the condition is available. Of course, execution can still continue with instructions that don't need the cmov result. And because there is no branch, which instructions get executed does not depend on the cmov condition.

Child actors need an independent advocate. A children actors union. If the parents can consent to them working, they’ll have to accept that there is an advocate group governing certain things about their working conditions too.

Someone needs to take the children’s side - that the parents and employers don’t always want to do.
> the end of an over-hyped era

Hype is part of what drives technology and I don't see it going away
any time soon - because a lot of people make a buck purely by milking
hype cycles.

I've come to see there are two modes of intelligence. The ability to
understand something and say 'yes' to it is complemented by bullshit
detectors, a more mature ability to see through other people muddying
the waters trying to look smart, and reject their nonsense.

Every cycle has its real innovators and hype-pedlars. At the height of
blockhain madness a decade ago they had worked themselves into a
frenzied fetish of near-supernatural woowooism. Once all the smoke
and hullabaloo has cleared, and all the grandiose promises have fallen
to the wayside, what remains is a core of genuinely useful and
relatively simple core concepts that enter the canon, along with
standards and protocols.

This line in TFA sums it up:

> I needed a database.

The same happened with "data". The hype problem there has always been
a lack of telos reminiscent of the underpants gnome's flawed "profit?"
scheme. Somewhere is a crucial missing step, where we ask "Why?". And
the answer is "don't worry, the data plus magical "AI" fairy dust will
reveal why". There is a quite religious (faith-like) flavour to this.

I blame the NSA. The idea that "collect it all" is anything but a
thugish brute force excuse to waste of billions dollars building
data-centres, has led to commercial obsession with "data" as a panacea.

It isn't "big data" per se that's a problem. Some applications, like
in medicine or environmental science, absolutely thrive on large sets
and sophisticated analytics. But the fact is that in most applications
it's mostly useless, burdensome, energy-consuming, and
space-wasting. But "data-hoarding" and over-analysis is pushed by
those with sledgehammers to sell for cracking nuts.
For 4, try out Hell Let Loose. It is multiplayer fps with heavy focus on communication and classes. I can guarantee that you don't need much reflexes because I have played and enjoyed the game at >200 ping :)
When I interview in Poland or Czechia and they brag "it's a project for IBM/Citi/Mercedes/whatever", "the platform allows our client to make transactions worth millions of dollars". All I think is "oh you little greedy incompetent fucker, after this call I'm ghosting you".
The closest thing to this I know of is The Forgotten City. It has some fantasy elements and the city itself isn't a real one.

Premise:

"The Forgotten City is a narrative-driven time loop adventure in ancient Rome. Discover the ruins of an ancient underground city, travel 2000 years into the past, and unravel the mystery of who destroyed it by cleverly exploiting the power to wind back time. The fate of the city is in your hands."

Developer comment on historical authenticity:

"In terms of historical authenticity, we engaged two historical consultants: Dr. Philip Matyszak, who has a D.Phil from Oxford and teaches at Cambridge, and has written 17 books on the ancient world. And Dr. Sophie Hay, who has spent 20 years excavating the ruins of Pompeii. Dr Matyszak helped us to create a game world with historically authentic art, architecture, costumes and customs. And Dr Hay helped out with a comprehensive review, ensuring our architecture and art was consistent with her observations of Pompeii, which was preserved in a very similar time period. We spent over 20 months on this and exchanged 300+ emails and did video flythroughs."
I'm no millionaire but I certainly wouldn't want to switch places with him. I'm sure he definitely had a better life than those living in constant hunger and poverty, but from what I can tell he wasn't necessarily at risk of any of that.

There's always someone with a worse life. I'd rather be homeless and hungry in America than live through the drought and famine that's hitting parts of Africa right now, or to have a roof over my head in the Chinese concentration camps.

Being rich and famous doesn't make you happy. I fact, I'd say the opposite is often true: Hollywood produces some of the most twisted, desperate, depressed and depraved people out there. Today, Wil Wheaton is in a position many of us dream to achieve, being famous and beloved by the masses and probably not having to worry about money for the rest of his life, but to get there, he had to survive a lot of trauma. Is all that money worth it watching some movie producers scratch up your sister's face as a child actor? What if the gamble hadn't paid off? His sister suffered through a similar life but I haven't heard much from her. Going through all that to have the glamorous life of... a massage therapist? No, thank you. You can learn to give massages without the parental neglect. Wil was lucky to get a successful career out of this but that was never certain.

Comments like yours often come off as envious to me. Some want the glamorous riches so bad they overlook the childhood trauma. Perhaps you've survived your own trauma, but "at least he got something out of it" is still a terrible take.
Age of Wonders was great! They've done some really good mods with new units, more maps and changing the difficult so the heroes are not too strong.
The duration of the war speaks volumes. The commentary may well be true, as personal observations go. But it isn't a winning strategy for Russia, as it stands. They aren't in a commanding position and they obviously didn't achieve initial war aims.

I do think most "but it didn't work" stories are survivor bias, but against that a lot of wartime mistrust of the Sherman was founded on misunderstood survival. They weren't actually worthy of the ronson nickname, and Patton was probably right to rail against homemade armor additions. Postwar analysis showed Sherman tanks had higher survival rate than people said at the time. It's because crews got out alive, we know crews didn't die.

That said, I think there's an awfully large number of ruined supply chain, light armoured vehicle, and other vehicle videos. They do not look like dud javelin outcomes. Maybe this "half are duds" is like scarecrow shells in the bombing raids on germany: you tell your own guys half the missiles fail to make them feel better. (There were no scarecrow shells: the shells exploding looking like US and British bombers being hit, were indeed bombers being hit, according to Len Deighton)
While the "it will never do as well as humans at this one thing I feel strongly about" bias is still a common one, even on hn, at this point I am fairly certain that we will soon all have to live with the fact that we are no longer all that special in regards to, well, absolutely everything.

One of my more interesting realisations over this development is that being human is apparently a religion to a lot of otherwise secular humans.

That is a very short list. I don't think this is really news, especially since they are fairly spread out in time and some were... predictable given the markets those companies were in.

On another topic, every time I visit sifted (I keep tabs on startup valuations and investments in Europe), their inconsistent use of "\" and "/" in headlines triggers my OCD...
For the consumer part, the 3 companies doing layoffs are "speedy grocery delivery startup".

Those were advertising very hard recently, insisting a lot on speed of delivery.

I was wondering how those were working as it seems to me speed is not really a factor for groceries, as it can be for direct food deliveries.

Apparently it's not working that well.
> That being said, one-time use backup codes are a standard way out of the problem.

Hardly any services seem to give that option unfortunately.
> even on that imaginary machine the compiler is allowed to perform "as if" transformations which change what happens

Yeah, but beginner programmers won't be told that. I can imagine even quite advanced programmers may be amazed because many do well in industry without digging deeply into their tools (for better or worse, there's often no need).

A few years ago I discovered that CPUs equally don't do what the code tells them - they do out-of-order to a shocking degree, have store forwarding and shadow registers (code writes a value x to register r1 doesn't mean x gets written to r1) etc. etc. and my jaw was hanging open. Nobody knows anything until they find out.
> I can understand why people wouldn’t want a tool they have created to be used to generate disturbing, offensive or disgusting imagery. But I don’t really see how doing that would be dangerous.

Propaganda can be extremely dangerous. Limiting or discouraging the use of powerful new tools for unsavory purposes such as creating deliberately biased depictions for propaganda purposes is only prudent. Ultimately it will probably require filtering of the prompts being used in much the same way that Google filters search queries.
I think any restrictions on gun ownership are unconstitutional. Primarily because I don't think the founding fathers minced words about the purpose of the second amendment, but mostly I don't trust the government at all.

I have never met a gun owner who does trust the government, or supports regulation and I've spent a lot of time around them. So I'll have to disagree with your supposition.
The problems are power consumption, speed, cost, size, development time, and the difficulty of updates and bug fixes. A modern embedded processor handily solves all of those.

Boards full of TTL are a fascinating engineering exercise, but there aren't many applications where they're a better solution.

It's also tempting to cheat and solve some of the sub-problems with monostables and analog timers. As soon as you do that you're introducing potential issues caused by temperature drift, component tolerances, and component ageing.

A fully clocked solution is always more reliable, but often that means a higher component count and cost.

FPGAs have real applications, but they're still harder to develop than code.

When I was a student one of the tutors said "We'll all be doing this in software soon" - and he was right.
Does this affect in any way the `api` routes? Could these also be moved under the new `app` folder?
My wife had this idea that we had our kids learn less-popular instruments. Viola instead of violin, harpsichord instead of piano. Playing piano is super competetive, you could put a lot of effort into it and still there are so many better players than you. In comparison the local harpsichord community is very happy to have a new member, everybody is supportive and it is much easier for the kids.
I've played frostpunk and while it is close to what I'm looking for, I want a more "rebuild this still somewhat functioning society that has just been ravaged by a war/asteroid/hurricane" type of thing, rather than the "make a whole new settlement" type.

Lowering the cost of anonymization (2020)
The fast grocery delivery business was waiting on a crash. It doesn't make sense that there's Getir, gorillas, gopuff, zapp and beelivery. Plus deliveroo, Uber eats, and Amazon prime now. Probably more that I haven't heard of. All for inefficient delivery of small quantities of low value items. I have a supermarket a 5 minute walk away, I just don't get it.
The police chose to ignore it, but when we consider the full history of the police and wider institutions choosing to ignore children being abused in a variety of ways by a variety of people, the reason “not to look racist” is patently absurd.
A user will almost never _want_ unsolicited notifications, because they are by definition spam. If you have a radio-button saying "Get notified of new articles" which then enables them, you'd have a lower, but much more genuine following.

Hypnosis and meditation use very similar techniques to reach a very similar state of mind. I'd say that the main difference is that people talking about meditation usually come from a spiritual viewpoint, whereas hypnosis is more scientific.

This doesn’t count as a tech problem?
And remix is ripping features from Vercel. Such as they business model, and the idea of creating their own framework for it.

Additionally, I wouldn't trust ever again the guys that rewrote and broke react-router with incompatible changes like... 6 times already? And now bragging on podcasts "Remix is 10 years old because is just built on top of react-router". Bullshit, it's just the npm package name that is this old. It is so deceptive all the ugly marketing they're doing.
One can run a gas boiler using an UPS (battery) to power it. In places where power outages are common people have them. A battery with the capacity enough to run a heat pump for at least several hours would be prohibitively expensive.

Speaking as a London-based freelancer specialising in Perl, I can tell you that the number of companies developing new systems in Perl is tiny (like, maybe, half a dozen).

Until four or five years ago, there was still plenty of maintenance work to be had, but even that has pretty much dried up now.
pretty hard when about 80% of new films these days are a sequel, remake, or tie into an existing universe[1]. Yes, just watch old films you say, but they're not on the front page of netflix and disney+, where the average person goes for entertainment recommendations.
