I totally get that sentiment about nix, and actually I sort of share a variation of it too: I really want to learn it, and I like the featureset in theory, but I can't get used to it in practice, and I don't have the time to invest myself into something that difficult to get going.

The reason I brought up the nix command is that I only use nix, for haskell development, for that specific command: I found it once in a blog post, saved it, then put it under a function into my bashrc, and I use nix quite literally for only that purpose. I've done a lot of development on various functional languages (with a dayjob in F# that lasted 3 years) and being able to quickly experiment with libraries was something that I sorely missed when doing repl experimentation in those languages (I think F# recently got a #nuget directive, but that was after I stopped using it).
Generally yes, I eat for "entertainment". If I was eating to just continue living, I'd live off Huel[0]. But since flavor and diversity add a great amount of joy and -entertainment-, a vast majority of my meals are designed and prepared for entertainment.

Are there really so many people who don’t want to have to get up after pooping that this is a business and needing powered toilets would be worth the trade-offs?
Netlify, Supabase and Slack whitelabelling Deno Deploy for starters, I'm sure there are others out there self-hosting as well
Deno Deploy, how is this different than lambda functions, or elastic beanstalk?
There are still no RPi builds as far as I am aware, which is a shame as there are now Mac silicon builds so not sure what the hold up is. I do wonder if there are.more Raspberry Pi's out there than M1/M2 Macs :)

Someone is doing the builds here - been using them and seem ok: https://github.com/LukeChannings/deno-arm64
Is knowing the same thing as believing? Maybe I'm missing something, but a lot of this seems to hinge on an assumption that knowing something with absolute certainty is possible, and a meaningful hypothetical scenario in our human cognition.

Predictions (knowing) and their ensuing actions in a non-deterministic world are not necessarily isolated from the eventual outcome. I'm curious how much of the "willful ignorance" is actually avoidance of some sort of self-fulfilling prophecy.
I have dyslexia, and I can't scan read(if that is the right word), I have to basically read entire words. This stuff forces me to scan read, which means I just don't understand the text anymore.
Yes, the address unit handles the shift+add (both on x86 and ARM).

That everything is translated into RISC-like "microcode" is a bit of a meme, it was only really true for the first generation 8086/8088 (from 1978). Those early chips actually had microcode subroutines to compute for example BX+DI and move the result into an internal address register. But every following x86 generation did it in hardware.

Modern CPUs with out-of-order execution do break read/modify/write instructions into separate micro-ops however.
No, that's not quite right. A stall means that the air has separated from the wing and the wing is no longer flying. The huge vortex created when a delta wing is at high AoA actually causes the air to stick to the top of the wing, and this maintains control.

I used to fly a 48" delta winged glider that had a catapult launch. The catapult would launch it at about 120mph. I could fly to about 300 feet in a nice vertical arc, but as soon as I yanked back on the elevons, the rather light plane would turn sharply and slow down significantly, due to the very effect discussed. A non delta wing would have been unable to maintain airflow over the wing because the high AoA (20-25 degrees) would have been far more than the 12-15 degrees that straight or swept wing can take.

In other words, the Delta wing kind of acts as a giant vortex generator: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_generator
With all of the press that "COVID in sewage" got, I'm curious if this same mechanism could be a better explainer for spread of covid in some areas than others. Specifically, my hypothesis would be that places that typically have non fitted lids on toilettes are a large part of why some super spreader gatherings turn into super spreaders.

Would love if someone has thoughts/suggestions on how to disprove this general idea.
True. But also doesn’t have any of the cultural legacy that presumably impacts how you hear the name…
Casanovas version is a wordplay: ‘Nequidquam sapit qui sibi non sapit’: ‘Who does not know himself is himself not knowing/wise.’
I have something slightly better, with less of a chance of unwanted castration: Just make the bowl an area of low pressure so particles are less likely to be flung out of it. You could have a fan pulling air through a tube from the bowl, and then running it through some filters.

I had this idea mostly for smell control - why remove all the air from the room instead of just dealing with smell where it is created?

The problem with this is that you get significant benefits from a larger crawling corpus, even if you index just a small portion of it, the rest will inform that portion.

That's a real problem that is ultimately hard to get around. Like my index is fairly small as it is, but even so it requires more hardware than say a student could afford. Like it's not enough that I'm dependent on external funding, but it's still not something you slap together for fun and then get bored of.
From my horizon the most significant adoption has been Netlify edge functions. So not exactly ship jumping, but adjacent and growing spaces.

They don't need to watch bank accounts. Companies are supposed to issue 1099s for payments over $600.
Hopefully they also sell a lot of the $820 professional use licenses, for flight training, commercial use, etc.
Yeah, that's true. I guess I was just trying to explain why it will get a level of scrutiny that other delivery options do not. Wasn't really trying to argue that perhaps we should be looking at the other side of the coin and scrutinizing regular shipping (and driving) more.

Been like that for well beyond that, 20+ years (probably since the first porn site went online). In the late 90s, early in the career, I was brought into an adult website project. You were limited to working with a few payment processors that were willing to work with the industry, and the integration was pretty rudimentary, even for the time.

Note that it's not just a morality issue: porn sites have a tremendous number of chargebacks. As a result, payment processors ban categories where the risk is higher.
Are VLANs enough to mitigate this?

As a concrete example let's say I have an interface on the host sitting on a trunk port receiving tagged traffic. It exposes two such VLANs as pseudo-devices "nic.10" and "nic.20" which are enslaved to "bridge10" and "bridge20" respectively. If I have a VM with a virtual NIC sitting on bridge10, the guest kernel shouldn't be able to see traffic on bridge20, right? (Assuming nothing above the guest is doing L2/L3 forwarding between the two VLANs.)
Plastic gears that break can be intentional, good design for better repairability.

If a mechanism jams, something has to give. This may be the motor, which may survive being jammed indefinitely, or it could burn up, causing a more expensive problem. In a mixer, the motor is probably decently powerful and doesn't tolerate being jammed.

If there's enough gear reduction, then a jam can develop enough force to bend shafts or break mountings and other components. That can make the product impossible to repair, if some injection molded bit that was supposed to hold stuff in place was broken.

A well placed plastic gear that breaks and saves the rest of the mechanism can make repair far easier and cheaper. And gears are very standard components that are far easier to find replacements for than some weird injection molded thing being made for one specific model of mixer.
Money Men: A Hot Startup, a Billion Dollar Fraud, a Fight for the Truth
I see exactly NO explanation about clean hydrogen production:

- electrolysis demand so much energy that there is no point in using it, yes we can even use p.v. power to made hydrogen, only issue: with a large stadium of panel we can produce less than a pencil volume in H. Natural H reserves given it's atomic size sound a bit sci-fi to me;

- since we can't store it safely we need to use it almost directly, witch is doable in fuel-cell but since decades we fail to see real practical applications on scale.

Long story short: yes if we can produce hydrogen in a clean way in quantity and we can store it the Green New Deal is solved, actually we can't. Similar thing for p.v./eolic for electricity: if we can find hyper-cheap, hyper-effective, hyper-capable batteries the renewable revolution is solved, again we can't. Lithium is the best we have now and is far to be usable on scale.

Honestly, considering myself a REAL environmentalist, witch means someone who really care about nature, not simply dream about sci-fi like tech on advertisement, the sole practical Green revolution for a spring grass green, not a dollar-green, I see are:

- nuclear fission, since we have it, we can enlarge it, it's already working and can give us nearly enough energy for almost needs, waiting for something better, perhaps fusion if it ever arrive. To be safe and usable enough it MUST BE a PUBLIC ONLY scenario;

- mountain hydro as much as we can, p.v. and eolic for SMALL plants, like individual homes or to give extra power when possible to small community;

- pushing electric logistic witch means nuclear ships and electric trains powered by public NPP, eventually receiving p.v./eolic surplus where possible;

- pushing AT MAXIMUM new modern homes constructions to need FAR LESS energy to keep them comfortable;

- pushing as much as possible electrification of industries, for some is easy (aluminum, glass for instance) for some next to impossible so fare (steel, ceramic etc) trying to favor via taxes the electrified ones, like "aluminum products cost less than iron one, use steel only if is REALLY needed";

- gas for the needed interim because so far we have not enough nuclear and we can't create new one quickly. Methane is the least pollutant of all oil&gas products we have available in sufficient quantity with sufficiently spread infra.

The rest is nothing grass green, just suicidal propaganda to milk money keeping the ship running toward rocks.
Hacker News changes more often than people think, just not the layout because people here are weirdly fetishistic about it.

Since I've been here they've added vouching for banned users (and actually warning people beforehand) thread folding, Show HN, making the second chance pool public, thread hiding, the past page, various navigation links and the API. They've also been trying to get a mobile stylesheet to work. They've also mentioned making various changes for spam detection and performance. And the url now automatically loads a canonical version if it finds one, and the title is now automatically edited for brevity. And I've probably missed a few things.

And HN isn't a simple application by any means. Go look at the Arc Forum code - it isn't optimized for readability, or scalability or reliability, but joy - for the vibe of experimental academic hacking on a Lisp. It's made of brain farts. Hacker News is probably significantly more complex than that for being attached to a SV startup company and running 'business code' and whatnot.
I’ve been using it as well. As annoying as it is, I am sure I would miss it enough to pay $100/year. Luckily, I somehow qualified for free access…
You're onto the key item here -- It's a shared definition. You can't go your way with progress, and me mine.
I think it's because comments like that are over-simplified and don't accurately describe the world as it is across the distributions of people.

For a hypothetical "Worldwide Average Person," things are quite better today than at any point in history. There are a lot of people who were dirt poor yesterday and are now less dirt poor today. For a small number of very well-off people, things are exponentially better today than ever. But for a significant number of people who had it really good in, let's say the 1950s and 1960s, things are noticeably and measurably worse in all ways today. If you're one of these people, the "Well that average person over there in Indonesia is better off" argument isn't convincing.
So we should be punishing children of consultants to make them atone for the hereditary sins of writing reports/collecting information so some executive somewhere can actually make the call?
I wouldn't even assume the concept of text files as we know them today will still exist in any meaningful way in 100 years. It's just as likely all digital data will be stored in something like neutral networks with no obvious textual representation. But yes, CSV has had remarkable persistence (the most recent major feature addition I made to our product had to read from a supposedly modern web API response that was in CSV format, despite all the other endpoints returning JSON).
> We should want people to find partners

Why?

This just all reads from a somewhat monogamous point of view when that’s not the point of the research. Quality is important but their is a significant amount of people in most western countries that wouldn’t define quality sex how you just did.
I really dislike this false equivalence between human learning and machine learning. The two are significantly distinct in almost every way, both in their process and in their output. The scale is also vastly different. No human could possibly ingest all of the open source code on GitHub, much less regurgitate millions of snippets from what they “studied.”
In a server, you're more limited by DIMM slots than by PCIe ports, especially on EPYC considering the number of lanes available.

With the shift towards DDR5, DDR4 could be repurposed as old servers are decommissioned.
Brilliant Idea! I hope you succeed wildly! Upvoted and Favorited!

(Now, as a side note, if funding decisions were up to me, I'd suggest not using VC, never using VC, staying as far away as you can from VC, treating VC as if it were a highly addictive and intoxicating substance, like alcohol is to some people: "When friends don't stop friends from using VC..." (you know, like those old Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) ads from the 1980's <g>)

"VC" above = "Venture Capital" (system) not "Venture Capitalist" (person).

(You know, like "Love the sinner, but hate the sin..." or more colloquially in recent times, "Don't hate the playa, hate the game..." <g>)

You might want to read the following articles:

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2003/06/03/fixing-venture-cap...

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2006/04/07/foreword-to-8220er...

But let's say that despite this, you still want to garner some funding...

For whatever reason, after Googling, I can't seem to find a comprehensive list of the various types and tiers of startup financing capital that are available (for example, there are lists of VC's, lists of "Angel Investors", lists of Crowdfunding platforms, lists of ways to bootstrap a business, lists of financial institutions and interest rates for generic borrowing -- but nobody has really sought to unify all of these sources into a single spreadsheet showing an amount of capital borrowed, and what is owed to whom in return for the capital (i.e., Equity (and if so, what %), in the case of VC's, Interest (and what %) in the case of Banks/other lenders, Finished Shipped Product (in the case of Crowdfunding platforms), or other debts/obligations as appropriate).

You could of course, just proverbially "keep the day job", that is, finance the startup costs with other employment -- and avoid all debt/obligations related to borrowing for your business altogether -- at the cost of your time, and working for someone else...

If you absolutely positively (you know, like FedEx! <g>) cannot go without VC of any sort, then you might wish to consider Pioneer's $20,000 for 2% of your company deal (https://pioneer.app/)

This might be better than YC's $125,000 for 7% IF (if and only if!) you can launch your company for $20,000 or less.

If you can launch your company for $10,000 or less, I wouldn't even go with Pioneer, I'd go with Crowdfunding and/or Family & Friends funding and/or bank loans and/or revenue from a day or part-time job...

At least if you self-finance, the "Pound of Flesh" (the drawback or compromise or hook or caveat -- with my apologies to Shakespeare's "The Merchant Of Venice") that could have been present in your company's future -- will never come due!

It's sort of like, pay now or pay later... pay now with due diligence and thrift -- or pay later, when the VC owns you! <g>

Anyway, wishing you well with your blossoming company!
Only if it saves you a few minutes every month in a "net" sense. If it saves you dozens of minutes every month and then also costs you dozens of minutes every month in hard-to-predict ways, it's hard to judge either way on it.
I suspect extremely few straight men would agree with you.
This was always the x-plane way. I had x-plane 5 and had tons of fun flying it and because of that bought x-plane 6 and it just wasn't as fun to fly because they put so much effort into getting the flight models "more accurate" which actually meant the sim was just less fun to fly for many of the more odd planes available like the SR-71.
It forms a single vortex over each wing, coefficient of lift still increases with angle of attack. It's more like moving the wingtip vortex near to the nose of the plane. There is a much higher 'true stall' angle of attack where flow separates and lift reduces.
Right, but the problem is really with hydrogen handling, and all the complexities that would be pushed onto, say, every vehicle. Keeping a hydrocarbon in a container is much, much easier than keeping a single hydrogen atom in a container.
We could really do without this kind of snark here. Not only is it condescending, but it's also just plain wrong, either on purpose or due to the writer not being familiar with the subject at hand.
$1 is worth what, one minute of your time? If you're using a tool that doesn't even save you one minute, why bother?
Except that this wasn't an example of BGP being prone to error or fragile. This was, as the blog post specifically calls out, human error. They put two BGP announcement rules after the "deny everything not previously allowed" rule. It's the same as if someone did this to a set of ACLs on a firewall.

The main difference between BGP and all other tools is that if you mess up BGP, you've done a very visible thing because BGP underpins how we get to each other's networks. But it's not a sign of BGP being fragile, just very important.

I think it's still pretty early days but it's clearly far superior to Node so I think we'll see more and more people use it.

The biggest barrier is the library ecosystem. JS's insane packaging history means a lot of NPM libraries don't work seamlessly with Deno even if they don't use Node APIs.
only if you're hiring somebody to be a CS major.
Yes, that's true, there are a lot of things that are easier with ray-tracing; I'd add refractions, laser-sparkle interference patterns, and volumetric ray-marching to the list.

On the other hand, if you want to draw hidden lines (as for a mechanical drawing), draw lines at edges between facets (wireframishly) or to outline surface curvature, or add null halos around foreground elements, I think those are easier to do with a polygon or NURBS rasterizer.
Literally everywhere. You've never met anyone with a hobby?
open addressing of course gives completely different guarantees about pointer and iterator invalidation on insertion, and even removal.

Those guarantees are important for people who write non-trivial code.

Why would you do that through financial aid? If a kid's worked hard enough to get into school they should be allowed to go regardless of their financial status, 75k a year is not affordable at all to a household making 150k a year. After taxes that's nearly all of that home's take home pay. You can give poor kids a leg up with consideration to their backgrounds during admissions time - make it harder for more privileged kids to get into school in the first place, I'm all for it. I don't see how that's a separate issue at all.

Your second point doesn't make any sense - we should be punishing children because of the amorphous negative externalities of every professional in the United States economy? They're to blame as opposed to the leadership of modern corporations that vote themselves multi million dollar bonuses each year while offshoring business and keeping worker pay down?

This is nonsense. C diff in hospital settings is not a reason to close the lid when you flush in your home. The lid on a hospital toilet is designed to close a lot more than the lid on your home toilet. The amount that your home toilet lid can "reduce germs" is less than a factor of 2. There are basically no pathogens whose infectious innoculum is so close to dose of the average toilet plume that a factor of 2 makes any difference at all. Moreover, those are your germs. you are colonized with them already.
Mate, if there's one thing Wikipedia isn't is bloated. It serves one of the biggest websites on the internet with a fraction of the infrastructure of similar sites.
I imagine you are already aware, but the creator of Node, Ryan Dahl, is also the creator for Deno. He is trying to create a new language which integrates what he learned from building Node.
Ammonia has been mentioned a few times in this thread, but I will expand a bit, because I believe it is the most promising hydrogen-based approach. Essentially, the idea is to use ammonia directly as fuel. There is an ARPA-E funded project (that I'm currently failing to find) that cracks ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen using heat. They claim that they can create a mixture of H2 and ammonia that will burn at any required flame temperature (H2 burns too fast / hot for existing turbines, ammonia too slow, so a mixture is the right way to go). Theoretically, with this process, you could use ammonia as a drop-in replacement for LNG. The LNG infrastructure can also be converted to carry ammonia instead.

Now, there are still obvious energy losses from creating and then burning ammonia. One thing that this technology could be very helpful with is overcoming the NIMBY-ism around nuclear power - that is, build nuclear reactors to produce ammonia, then ship the ammonia to where it will be used. It would obviously be more efficient to just run power lines from nuclear power plants, but given the wide-spread opposition, it could be politically easier to build the nuclear plants in the middle of nowhere.
I completely understand what you're saying, but Python is a lot better now. You don't have to worry about Python 2 anymore and the tooling is a lot better as well (Black, Flake8, Poetry are all really nice).
