What was that quote by Feynman about how you can tell that someone is full of it if they give a number that's absurdly precise?
git subrepos are an alternative to git submodules and git subtrees.

https://github.com/ingydotnet/git-subrepo

git subrepos work simply by copying your dependency to a subdirectory and committing the changes using one large commit that retains metadata about the update to the subrepo. For that reason, git subrepos aren't symlinks. You don't need to git clone --recursive like with git submodules, and you don't need cross-repo authentication. Updating a subrepo means performing another commit.

Even though git subrepos are the most poorly maintained, the design is simpler.

I wish someone would fork and take over maintenance.

git subrepos are the best.
if the interviewer is competent he will know you wrote the code.

if he does not know, then this means coding interviews do not actually optimize for competent people.

are you afraid to find out the latter might be the case?
How many of that 40% know pro life means the abolition of abortion?
Congratulations, you've discovered p-hacking.

I said "almost certain". What you did is taken a database of someone who made millions of comparisons, such that coincidences that are very unlikely to occur happen via pure coincidence.

Additionally, I said "enough of a sample size". Given that the analysis you're talking about was over 11 pairs of points, that doesn't even qualify as very unlikely.
LogSeq? I use it for this kinda work...
> It’s the “load 5 bytes” and “store 5 bytes” that I don’t have a good solution for

Strings in C are null terminated. You can avoiding loading exactly 5 bytes. For a string of length 4 load 4 bytes, for a string of length 5 load 6 bytes, you’ll read 5 characters of the payload + the terminating '\0'.

If you code C++, the standard library was fortunately designed with C interop in mind, strings form the standard library have c_str() method.

About how to do that efficiently, a good way is a jump table. Not all compilers are smart enough to compile switch into a table, but many of them are. Modern GCC usually does the right thing, take a look: https://godbolt.org/z/sK7jcoooa (untested)

Partial stores are pretty similar. Compare the vector of bytes for b == `\0`, use _mm_movemask_epi8(), then _tzcnt_u32() or _BitScanForward() to find the length, then in the switch use various extract instructions: _mm_cvtsi128_si32, _mm_cvtsi128_si64, _mm_extract_epi16, and/or _mm_extract_epi32.
An image has boundaries, shading, light effects like reflection and refraction, shadows, gradients and coherence. The complexity is way, way more than what you would find in an audio file. I don’t think your analysis is valid.
>Often quoted, rarely supported by actual evidence.

A fair point.

That said, why don't we do a little field research and record everything you say for a few months and see if we can generate some evidence one way or another?

What's that? You don't consent to such recording? Why not?

Yes. There is a little snark there, but that's kind of the point.

It's not about what you say, but whether or not it's ethical to record someone without their knowledge or consent.
So let me see if I can wrap my head around this...

Superior intelligence created a world with rules (laws of time and space) and planted programmed organic AI lifeforms with achievable complexity that enables the evolution of the AI's intelligence to reach the point of completing the circle and repeating the original experiment.

Oh and instead of digital - it's all programmed into organic form factors?

Creation anyone?
Thanks for this recommendation! Do you only index things with a depth of 0? I just set Yacy up a couple days after seeing this post, and didn't realize what that meant at first.

Now I have 10s of 1000s of pages indexed after importing my bookmarks/history, and I'm wondering if it'd be more useful to _only_ index the pages I've visited/bookmarked, or if it'd also be good to crawl those sites further.

I guess one distinction would be whether or not I thought I could use Yacy as a full-time replacement for google/ddg. It'd be nice if I could index "everything", but then have a toggle to search only my bookmarks/history or something similar to that.

Not sure about NeRF's impact on deepfakes specifically, but they are looking like a seismic shift in the graphics world. Even without the "neural" part, as a scene representation they are already having a huge impact, and will have implications everywhere. It feels almost like a new primitive is being discovered.

Maybe I'm just getting caught up in all the hype, but I can't remember the last time I saw a topic with this much momentum.
Conversely, to pay for researchers to invent new techniques, companies need to get that money back by selling capabilities their competitors do not have.

For an example of the difference, compare the quality and capability of Photoshop versus GIMP (or any open source photo editor) to see the difference.

After all, photo editing is older than open source, yet open source still cannot make the technologically leading photo editor.

The same is true across a massive range of software, from CAD to scientific software to audio compositing to movie editing to ......
My understanding is that Bushnell treated developers better than Warner. Activision was founded after Bushnell left Atari.
I would have to agree with this sentiment. I think one of the best things about hooks in general is that it put to rest all the third party state management libraries. At least now you can just agree with most people and move forward with hook state.

That being said, I think the ergonomics in React development (JSX) are SOO much better than Angular that I still prefer it.
There are very few such targets, thus they will simply have to pay the extra cost. It's a very, very good tradeoff to make.

If you're trying to get every ounce of performance out of a CPU lacking very basic memory management facilities, it's probably a good idea not to use wasm.

> I don't, I'm honest in my CV and during interviews

When I first started interviewing people I assumed everyone wrote their resumes just like me: Honest, accurate, erring on the side of humble, avoiding exaggeration of my abilities.

I learned the hard way that you can’t really trust what people put on their resumes. A lot of people are accurate and honest. Many people are actually too humble or often just bad at selling themselves, so you have to read between the lines and dig for their biggest achievements.

But unfortunately, a large number of people will exaggerate their accomplishments far beyond anything that could be considered reasonable. Claiming proficiency in programming languages they couldn’t begin to even talk about. Writing about projects they didn’t actually work on. Making up unrealistic numbers for how effective or profitable their work was.

The worst was when I receive a resume for a former coworker who hadn’t performed all that well when we worked together. The resume included some of my achievements, which the person hadn’t been involved with nor was even capable of. It was a shock to my naive system to see someone brazenly claim so much in hopes that they could slip past the interviewer and land a well-paid job where they presumably tried to blend in while dodging responsibility and accountability as much as possible.

And that is why we all have to go through onerous tech interviews, despite listing our experience on our resumes.
It's funny that they think high performing teams are as a result of this high ratio of praise to correction instead of being a symptom.
Makes sense. A variation of the family trust suggestion is how I am planning to proceed.

It is more about not putting the company in a difficult position with its stakeholders by publishing anything that is not aligned with our brand.

Apple could also tackle Chrome's dominance in a different direction. Just invest much more aggressively in Safari and web apps, 10~20x OpEx. Release Safari on Android and all other major platforms. Make most of it fully open source. Make all of its first party apps available on the web.

Obviously this means that they need to give up on their iron grip on app developers so they didn't do that even if that was the exact path Steve envisioned. But that's not a good excuse either.
The study doesn't seem to call out how many numbers in each cohort actually got the flu in the time period. Also, that the vaccines are created anew each year for the particular strains of flu likely to be an issue also requires investigation.

I don't know exactly what you mean by "post-truth", but I think for the vast majority of human history we've lived in a time where it was rare to have easy/cheap to create and hard to fake records of what happened (photography, videos, audio recordings).

In terms of a single photograph though that's been very easy to fake in compelling ways for at least the past 30 years look at lochness and bigfoot photos.

Video's harder, but still pretty much all of this is not horribly difficult to fake. We've long been able to edit things out and mix audio to make a compelling video of a cartel leader meeting with them, no need for deep fakes.

> *Authors’ Note: The journal that published this study has since expressed concern about the data. We first became aware of this research in Kim Cameron’s book, Positive Leadership. Like many others, we were distressed to learn of the incorrect data in the Heaphy and Losada research and we immediately ceased our citations upon learning that the study wasn’t correct. But we do believe the basic assumption and premise that leaders should provide more positive than negative feedback is correct.
Aging is an advantage for species that have it. Reproductive fidelity is at its highest just after puberty in our species and probably most others. Turtle reproductive fidelity also declines with age (1). Having organisms become frail and die off in the years after puberty helps to maintain higher levels of reproductive fidelity among the population.

It’s not competency. It’s the predatory insurance companies in the middle. Socialized medicine takes away that inefficiency but the GOP will block any attempt at improving life for the common person. It’s blunt but true. They desperately want to maintain the hierarchy of men over women and white races over others. It’s really that simple but with a prime directive like that most of us in the US are going to be unhappy.
Well it's more that the aging demographics of current civillisation is unprecdented in human history... it's one of those 'experiments' we run on ourselves without much consent or thought. I like to use the example of the invention of the mirror. We take it for granted now, but being able to see and carefully examine your appearance in private multiple times a day has had a huge impact on many facets of human life, probably net negative I would say. How much anguish and folly has arisen from seeing only our surfaces in perfect detail? Narcissus had to look at his reflection in water, but the myth isn't even worth telling these days.

The social, cultural and economic implications of an older population are very likely to be profound. A rapid demographic 'crunch' is not a good idea. One example is that nobody is quite sure how to keep funding socialised healthcare and support aged care in the face of a transition to an increasingly elderly and infirm population who don't earn income. We will see it playing it out initially between countries with older demographics (Italy, Japan) and younger demographics (India, African nations, even the USA is relatively young).

fp16 models inference just fine in fp32, though I was sorta joking in my original comment, it would potentially take weeks for this to run one input.

> Looking at the density of craters how can we exclude the possibility that one of the craters simply existed before the new one?

One thing to note is that the density of craters on the moon is a result of a relatively infrequent number of impacts over an astronomically long time. With no process by which impact craters are weathered (wind, seismic activity), craters remain essentially forever.

The current government is pretty much the same faces that has been in power for over a decade.

The current president "Gotabaya Rajapaksha" is the Brother of "Mahinda Rajapaksha" who was the president before him.

When Mahinda Rajapaksha was in power, Gotabaya was the defence minister.

When Gotabaya was recently elected the president, Mahainda was the Prime-minister.

In Sri Lanka it doesn't matter which party you elect as the government, ministers jump from one party to the other always, they fight and throw chairs at each other in the parliament and on stages, but the very same day they will all meet and have a party with each-other. (I wish I was exaggerating)

there was a different government before Gotabaya was president and After Mahinda was president. But, it was basically the same old culprits.

There's a lot of randomness in what gets attention on /newest. Your submission didn't get attention while this one did.

HN disallows reposts within 8 hours or if a story has had significant attention in the last year, but neither of those were the case with this repost, so our software allowed it to go through.

I know it's frustrating when your submission 'loses' and someone else's 'wins', but since it's random, it at least evens out in the long run if you submit lots of good stories. Eventually we'll implement some sort of karma sharing to take care of this.
Yeah. I was being a bit hyperbolic. But there was lots of talk about ways to force vaccination. Including mandates for keeping your job (both in the public and private sector). You might say that a private company can do what they want (and the libertarian in me says yes) but then you need to be consistent on the other side - remember the uproar when Hobby Lobby said they didn’t want to pay for insure that provided abortion services?

I’m really not taking sides here, I’m just pointing out that we should strive for self-consistency in our government regulations. And either you have a right to your body or you don’t. You can’t pick and choose.
Japan Can Help Save Taiwan: Securing the First Island Chain
Hey Mark, I’m actually currently looking at a similar problem.

I’m writing a HTTP client based on composition. The exact details aren’t important, but one of the goals is to have a strong type system for describing a valid pipeline of things like response parsers. Imagine something like

Doing “type tests” alone isn’t too hard - we can just use conditional types and the extends keyword. If the code compiles, fine.

But the harder part is negative type tests. “Given this code, the developer should get this error from TSC”. But this is just as important a part of the API; your types are there to convince the consumer that they can call a type-checked API with confidence.

In theory it should be plausible to run TSC programmatically. The issue is that TypeScript’s ScriptProcessor API really wants to be called with files on the filesystem rather than source text. So I am having to do some bodging. If I can get something sorted I may write a repo to demo it, I think it is a common problem.

One issue I see with the current debate: people are comparing e.g. Italy to Sweden. Then if you're Bryan Caplan you call for housing reform, and if you're a more typical academic you call for parenting leave and other Scandi social welfare policies.

Sure, Italy has fertility of 1.27. But Norway has fertility of 1.53! Comparing these is like comparing two ends of the Titanic. One end is sinking underwater. The other is relatively higher. But it will be underwater too a few hours later. 1.27 augurs rapid population collapse. 1.53 augurs slightly slower population collapse.

If you think far-below-replacement fertility is bad, then Scandinavia does not have the solution.
Compilers would be allowed to do this… but they don't do it. See for yourself:

https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/4b5azx5ac

I replaced the printf with a simple write to a global variable, since as-is, the optimization might actually be illegal on the grounds that the printf might never return (e.g. if stdout is a blocked pipe). But none of GCC, Clang, or MSVC elide the check at max optimization level.

If you put the dereference before the null check, then all of those compilers do elide it. This is pretty easy to justify, since any program without address 0 mapped will always crash before reaching the check. This optimization did cause a brouhaha a decade ago, when it was discovered that it was being applied to the Linux kernel. At the time, it was possible for a user program to map address 0 and have that be directly dereferenceable by the kernel, and an optimized-away null pointer check made an otherwise unexploitable kernel bug exploitable. [1] Linux now passes a flag to turn the optimization off (-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks), which solves that problem without denying user programs the benefits of the optimization.

That said, it appears that Clang elides the check in the dereference-before-check version even on WebAssembly; this is probably a bug.
