> From the name of the class I knew I was looking at Strada — the, yet unreleased, framework from Hotwired.

That's a slightly unusual statement to make in the middle of a reverse-engineering-ish piece like this. After reading it, I checked the author's bio and sure enough, it seems like he works on the Strada framework itself, or at least very closely with the authors.

In other words, he most likely didn't actually "stumble" on anything, and the preamble discussing how he started looking at the Hey app due to curiosity is probably just guff. This seems just to be a content marketing piece for Strada.

Now... that's okay, I like content marketing and often read it. However, when the content is fabricated in the way it appears to be here, I end up feeling a little cheated.

> IP addresses were never intended to be confined to that small of a geographic area.

Design intentions are different from what exists today, where an ISP can assign a residential home IP that remains the same until their CPE is rebooted, which can often be several months.

> IP addresses just don't resolve to that level of detail.

That depends on what the geolocation service provider is willing to publish, keeping in mind their ability to cross-reference with multiple signal sources. e.g. if someone enters their home address into a site for shipping/delivery, what are the chances that at least one ad-tech data broker on that page is linking their IP to the user-entered street address? There are many other potential signal sources.

> It uses local network IDs.

Which have often been precisely geolocated by cellphones (with GPS) or StreetView mapping vehicles. The browser also has access to IP address that is "near" those SSIDs..

> If so, what's the chance of discovering nothing for years and then, like London buses, three all come along at once?

First, there was a pretty constant stream of these kinds of discoveries over the last years. Most of them even discussed here [1, 2, 3 and more]

Second, what you need to find these rare events are two things: enough statistics and someone actually doing a specialized analysis looking for them.

Enough statistics have been accumulating over the past years, and now someone stepped forward, developed the analysis, tested it on small scale dataset, got it approved by the Collaboration, ran it on the large dataset and then chances are that you don't just find one but three very similar things.

Disclaimer: I am not part of LHCb and have no insight into the specific analysis of this discovery, just sitting on the same floor as the LHCb guys and knowing the general procedure.

Third, as noted in a sister comment, these quark states are expected from the standard model, they are just very rare and very short lived, so hard to find. Nothing new normally refers to "no physics found incompatible with the standard model".

I find this question distasteful, since it's asked with nothing more than a vague insinuation of Viazovska potentially not being "that good" as motivation. Here's the long citation:

"A very long-standing problem in mathematics is to find the densest way to pack identical
spheres in a given dimension. It has been known for some time that the hexagonal packing of
circles is the densest packing in 2 dimensions, while in 1998 Hales gave a computer assisted
proof of the Kepler conjecture that the faced centered cubic lattice packing gives the densest packing in 3 dimensions. The densest packing wasn't known in any other dimension until in
2016 Viazovska proved that the E8 lattice gave the densest packing in 8 dimensions and, very shortly afterwards, together with Cohn, Kumar, Miller and Radchenko, proved that the Leech lattice gave the densest packing in 24 dimensions. Viazovska's approach built off work of Cohn and Elkies, who had used the Poisson summation formula to give upper bounds on the possible density of sphere packings in any dimension. Their work had suggested that in 8 and
24 dimensions there might exist a radial Schwartz function with very special properties (for
instance it and its Fourier transform should vanish at the lengths of vectors in the respective lattice packings) which would give an upper bound equal to the lower bound coming from the known lattice packings. Viazovska invented a completely new method to produce such
functions based on the theory of modular forms.

Viazovska has developed these ideas in other directions. With Radchenko she proved the
unexpected result that any even Schwartz function such that it and its Fourier transform
vanish at the square root of every non-negative integer must be identically zero. In fact they showed that any even Schwartz function can be written [...] for certain special functions a_n and b_n.

With Cohn, Kumar, Miller and Radchenko she showed that the E8 and Leech lattice not only
gave optimal sphere packings in dimensions 8 and 24, but that they minimize energy for every
potential function that is a completely monotonic function of squared distance."

Marie Skłodowska-Curie, who got her second Nobel for Radium and Polonium discovery, named Polonium to bring attention to the Russian occupation of her Motherland - Poland. I don't see anything out of place with Maryna Viazovska talking about war as it may be hard to see anything more important than your Motherland, your people, being totally destroyed.
There is indeed a Fedora Server: https://getfedora.org/en/server/
No no no, she is legit, no doubt here.

She was a star way before the current events. She solved a long-standing open problem in fundamental maths. This is the holy grail in maths research. The main resulting paper is single-author, so there is no doubt who did the work.

She got her PhD from Bonn in 2013 and became a full prof at EPFL in 2018 (in EU this type of progression takes 10-20 years, and this is extremely impressive even by US standards). It was very clear to everyone at that time that she would be big.

A shoutout is very appreciated and putting Zig in the title line definitely is what caught my interest (so yes Zig is being used to promote bun probably more than bun is promoting Zig at this point) but the writing specifically on the website is a bit on the nose, don't you think? "Why is Bun fast? Because of Zig"

Rust is already somewhat infamous for this ("Rewrite it in Rust" is a meme) and has caused it to develop a bit of a stigma, at least in my circles.

I'm still rooting for Zig to get its place among the big ones (and bun seems definitely a nice way to push for it) I just hope that happens without creating the annoying cult-like behaviors that plagued the crab language.

Well said, but I humbly disagree that it has to be better in some way, just easier AND as technically sound. Unless that is by your definition better. Ease of use is probably one of the most important factors in real life in determining preferences for software.

I strongly feel if someone could match the merging ability of Git with the ease of simple, well worded commands, it could win. And it doesn't even have to be a Git replacement, but a better frontend. Kind of how yay is to pacman. Or how most use something like Handbrake instead of ffmpeg.

In a lot of ways, it reminds me of Python and Perl. Perl was definitely more powerful as a language, but Python felt like natural writing in pseudocode. Enthusiasts rightly point to the power of inbuilt regex, but like Git, few actually could harness it well enough to make that unreadability worth it.

The word 'people' is doing a lot of work in that sentence.

ssh was created in 1995 by a Finnish university researcher at the University of Helsinki, his name is Tatu Ylönen :)

Streaming shows are longer than they need to be simply because they can be. In the past Movies and TV shows had a time limit because it was profitable to do so. At movie theaters the more times they show a movie the more the theater earns. They need to be as short as possible while still telling a story. The standard time has been around 1.5 hours with a few movies being longer. The standard TV show is an hour including commercials.

For streaming services there is no time limit. Actually the longer the better since they can keep you watching just that much longer. Plus it adds to the total streaming content hours produced. The longer the better. And usually it costs little more since producers usually create way more footage that can be used in the show or movie.

The down side is that streaming audiences have to endure more frivolous content. This is one of the reasons I've reduced my streaming content viewing. I'm now leaning more towards original movies that are headed to the movie theater since they have to be as tight as possible given the theater requirements.

In 1997, SSH was relatively new, a couple years old (looked it up).

It did spread very quickly, as the issue it solves was quite obvious and there weren't a lot of competing solutions. So it's pretty possible that that was the actual tech used.
I don't think the argument was "screwdriver" vs "no screwdriver". It was about some tools being better than others.

Everyone in web dev uses tools of some sort. The argument might be that some tools are so advanced, it's like using a robot arm for tightening a few screws. Some devs will embrace robot arms, others will use a screwdriver.

>> This lack of records led some later scholars to give the years after the Roman collapse the now deeply unfashionable label ‘the Dark Ages’,

> That is entirely crap.

It's absolutely not crap.

Wikipedia says (referring the quote used in your link):

The concept of a "Dark Age" originated in the 1330s with the Italian scholar Petrarch, who regarded the post-Roman centuries as "dark" compared to the "light" of classical antiquity. The term employs traditional light-versus-darkness imagery to contrast the era's "darkness" (lack of records) with earlier and later periods of "light" (abundance of records).

I'd emphasize the "lack of records" here. It's absolutely true to say that some scholars use that as a reason to label it the dark ages.

> They're called the dark ages because some humanists, full of themselves, started calling themselves the enlightenment

I'd note that Petrarch (quoted in the link you posted!) was talking about the times he lived in himself as dark, and was far from claiming to be any sort of enlightenment.

This might be something for my own trip, but the "trolley continuing for eternity" question was interesting to me.

I experienced it as if the universe (the creator) was asking itself (me) whether it should carry on doing itself (literally, and figuratively) or stop and bring the trolley ride of life to a complete end.

Happy Existential Wednesday.
Well, I didn't really meant data centers, just in general on premise infrastructure. There is a difference of course. Our administration is almost completely in the cloud, but for production and some adapted applications we still need local data. There is simply no technical solution to run everything in the cloud and we also want to retain some data locally. VMWare is an example. UPS and backups are another. Sure, we use service providers for provisioning of new VMs but IT still needs to do maintenance of the software that runs on it, needs to keep inventory about the servers running in the company. And if you have one VM running additional provisioning is not too much work.

But sure, at the scale of FedEx this is true, they also probably have a very high percentage of administration only. Although I still think the cooperation with MS was still a strategically planned after paying attention to Amazon.
ssh in 1997 was pretty advanced! I think they were the days when people started the campaign against telnet and rcp in favor of ssh.

It's not good enough for me though, won't you think of your poor reader? /s
For me it was a teacher showing his basic web page at the school's computer lab. I wanted to do the same! He showed me how to edit the source in Notepad, and watch the result in IE. To get me started, he gave me a floppy disk with a single index.html file with some tags. I played around with that for ages.

To actually host the page, ~10 old me didn't know what to do. But a relative in Denmark had suddenly become the "webmaster" for her local government, and gotten to learn some stuff.

Remotely teaching me ftp or ssh was out of the question, but I got tipped about Tripod/Lycos. They had an online interface where I could upload a file! And then later she showed me how to apply for dot.tk and have my very own domain. Very cool 8)

Was a bit dormant, though. What more could I do than adding some texts and under construction gifs?

Then the Harry Potter craze hit. Lots of people made cool websites, and I wanted to join! To up the game, me and a friend made stuff in FrontPage. Still manually uploading one and one file through Tripod's web interface. I could do so much more than the little HTML I had managed to do in Notepad! Then I later got to spend a day shadowing a professional web developer, and she gave me the CD for the previous version of Dreamweaver! First I used the wysiwyg mode, but then discovered the editor had auto completion! Suddenly I could write HTML properly.

As many others, my Harry Potter page was a "school" where people could do stuff and earn house points. But not knowing programming, everything was static and I had to manually edit and reupload files. Luckily only like two friends used the page hehe. But other HP pages were dynamic! How? I had to learn PHP!

-

As an aside, it's curious how many of those professionals I interacted with the first years were women. Companies/govagencies felt they needed a presence, but didn't care much, and just gave the task to someone else already doing communication/admin work. And they learned on the job and suddenly became the first experts here.

That’s really interesting - thanks for taking the time to come back to this.

When I first clicked over to Spine 2D I assumed it was skeletons for sprites. But it actually looks like skeletons for 3D meshes, which are then exported for use in 2D applications.

This sort of workflow implies to me - a layman - that the 3D modelling part is less onerous than creating a whole bunch of sprite art. Which is surprising.
The kid already knows how to do Facebook or whatever horrible place, they won't care.

When people ask me how I learned web, I'm usually at a loss remembering what path I took. I often say it was some Dreamweaver and osmosis through reading a lot of A List Apart and Smashing Magazine after being introduced to those websites by my friend, but now seeing the cover the books in this article brought up memories of me being preteen in the mid-2000s finding "HTML for the World Wide Web" on my dad's bookshelf and meticulously going through it.
> More complex than that. MIG covers compute use cases only. For workloads where graphics are needed (or even the graphics APIs), you have to use preemptive scheduling, even on Ampere.

Thanks for the correction! Shows how much I've really used it outside of "does nvidia-smi do the right thing, and can I map those to pods". I had assumed that, since nvidia-smi on Ampere did both GPU and CPU slicing, that maybe they found a solution which allowed them to sidestep all of the inherent problems with trying to share GPU memory, but too much to hope for.

> No. It's gone on Gen11 and later. :/ And no replacement yet.

I've been relatively distanced from the nitty-gritty parts of GPU virt for a couple of years, but how/why did the end up pushing for root SR-IOV support for Xe along with patches for ReBAR at the same time as they dropped this?

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000...

I guess they'll gate it behind enterprise dGPU SKUs when/if they ever release. Welp.

> The OSS NV KM stack doesn't support GPU virt at all yet.

I would have thought this also. As bad as the doc in the link is, it does explicitly reference OpenRM verification. I wouldn't trust nVidia's "big ball of hardly-commented source" for anything yet, but at least it is the "real" driver and not Nouveau, so I'd expect GPU virt to be supported, even if the code may be inscrutable.

I'm really just waiting for the HN link to confirm/deny the long-held suspicion that nVidia suddenly got really good around the same time SGI was in its death throes, and that the reason they resisted opening their drivers was due to routines with... questionable IP.

You misunderstood my comment. I said it felt out of place *here*, in a video dedicated to her mathematical work, hosted on mathunion.org (the clue is in the URL). Doesn't mean she cannot talk about the war in general.
As for Marie Curie, I don't think they had Internet and 24-hour news channels back then. I don't need mathematicians to bring attention to the war in Ukraine when everyone is constantly talking about it already.

I find it bizarre that you're taking the side of the, say, thousands of transit policymakers--who are certainly not taking this hypothetical into account--over the majority vote of the public on this exact ethical issue. Not wanting to reason from scratch in the moment is fine, but you don't have to. This is a well-known dilemma, and the consensus is that you should kill one to save five.

> If those rules needs to be changed, then change them through debate and well reasoned arguments and not a split second decision.

Yep, that's why we're here. Now that most of us have agreed that "pull the lever" is the right call on the trolley problem, do you think the transit authorities are going to codify it as a law? Don't be ridiculous. Just take the legal hit, if it even comes. Laws are wrong sometimes, especially in hypotheticals.
So what's so special about 8 and 24 dimensional space?
One of the problems allows you to save yourself but kill 5 other people.
