Re-check your sources. A lot of pro-nuclear material out there is pure advertising from nuclear lobbies. Nuclear is a hugely expensive and high-maintenance way of generating energy. There's risks that don't show up in neat, averaged numbers, think Russia shelling a nuclear plant in 2022, that was on none of the yay-nuclear bingo cards.
> The word "just" when used to gloss over something with the author don't know how to explain.

Never thought of that before, but it's certainly true. Always hated when we got cryptic explanations for the difficult things, and elaborate explanations for the stuff everyone understood anyway at the university. I guess professors have to explain things they don't fully understand from time to time
Vaguely remember seeing this in the first few chapters somewhere of Spirit of C by Mullish and Cooper.

In my country, we have various different grocery chains with their own delivery services. Off the top of my head: Picnic [1], AH Delivery [2], AH Compact [3] (yes, one grocery store chain has two competing delivery services, really), Jumbo [4], Crisp [5], and none of these even offer the option to give a tip.

The 15-minute delivery services like Flink [6], however, do offer at least the option to give a tip.

I use the gitlab web ide which also has basic preview support for markdown. I ensure that I keep the markup to a minimum. I don't even use pictures.
When I commit cloudflare (whose build/publish process went from 3-5 minues to seconds) makes it available almost instantly. It's a hugo site which I created by taking a theme I like and gutting unneccessary things. I don't update the code or theme at all and the hugo version is fixed in the cloudflare pages settings. I do not use the hugo tooling at all anymore.

You could also write your own script like a lot of people on HN seemt to be doing and configure the build step to do nothing but take whatever is in your web directory and publish it. (Obviously the same is possible with github. I actually migrated from there. Gitlab can import github repos, and the only change needed on the cloudflare side was change where the repo points to and set up the new token)
Most phones don't have expandable storage which can get limiting if you're using the device to do more than just music
This makes a lot of sense. The city center is so dense, it physically doesn't have enough space for all the cars and vans. The traffic is moving at bike speeds already. There's no space to park vans for residential deliveries, so they keep blocking the streets. There's no need to have 3-tonne vehicles for next-day deliveries of socks and USB cables.
Ha, good point, they're not really bikes!

But that's a good thing, you wouldn't want Amazon cyclists rushing to meet their next drop time through a city that doesn't really care for cyclists.

The deliveries could be delayed, you see, and KPIs would suffer.

I've heard numbers like 5-10%.
Just to be clear, that's quite literally the Wikipedia definition.

> In algebra, a homomorphism is a structure-preserving map between two algebraic structures of the same type (such as two groups, two rings, or two vector spaces).

Not sure if this is rude but many definitions there seem a bit, not plain English.

I am assuming we are aiming for something close to ELI5 if the title says plain English.

Ofc that could not be what the author intended and is just but that's how inferred the title.

I will see if I can find time to improve and send some PRs for the ones that are in deep need of simplification, hopefully OP is open to discussing changes.

Also like Arity, Arity is not just for functions, it can sometimes be interchanged with Rank and apply to even Types. higher ranked types. higher arity types...
I do understand they are not something most people like, because of their issues but that's not a complete definition so I assumed it was for the means of simplifying to explain to beginner programmers. [reference to issues with HRTs](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016800729...)

Again this is not meant to be rude to the author, just hopefully the title could be better formed to explain the intent of the work.
Or my opinion might be minority and we can decide against it as well ofc.
Frontend tooling is as much “infra” as Docker is. In fact they’re quite similar, since in both contexts the goal is to ship code to multiple platforms.
I agree with that, setting up k8s on bare-metal took me 2 days, and we needed it to deploy elastic and some other helm charts as quickly as possible without loosing our minds maintaining nodes with some clunky shell scripts.

Also we bought us immediately an easy approach to build gitlab ci/cd pipelines + different environments (dev, staging, production) on the same cluster. Took me a week to set everything up completely and saved our team developing rapidly features really a lot of time and headache since then. But the point is, I knew how to do it, focus on the essentials and deliver quick reasonable results with large leverage down the route.
Spot on, I can go through box after box of screws with a Torx bit without it breaking or even wearing visibly. You do want to make sure you have some pressure on it.
I think Apple doesn’t want third-party developers to compose their own sandboxing rules, because it’s pretty hard to do that in a way that can’t be escaped and that doesn’t break Apple’s frameworks. They provide the Mac Application Sandbox profile for third-party developers. That profile is quite flexible, and if you’re not targeting the Mac App Store there are some ways to add rule exceptions.
Sure, but the title does say plain English so this would be the sort of thing the author is trying to avoid. If that’s the meaning just write all a are b.
Sure, it's a particular interpretation of `(f a, f b) -> f (a, b)`

(a, b) is an a -> b
(f a, f b) is an f a -> f b

Applicative, over an above this, is really just useful when you have (f a, f b, f c, ..)
I don't know a thing about Vauld, so no accusations here, but surely people realize that anything offering +18% on what you can get from a bank will often be a ponzi scheme?
No, definitely not. Though sometimes (in a pinch, and very bad practice) you may be able to use a slightly oversized hex bit to drive a Torx fastener.
Depends on your motivation. I love doing research, I love doing basic research. Thus I can stay in academia world, given the opportunity. But I don't like doing administration work. This is what I dislike about academia.

Error accumulation is basically a way to emulate higher precision numbers. That’s not what I’m talking about—I’m saying that you can use an algorithm which accumulates error at a lower rate to begin with.

For example, if you are summing numbers, you can divide the numbers in half and recursively sum each half. This is superior, in terms of error, to a simple loop. If you are solving linear equations, you can calculate a matrix inverse—but this is awful in terms of error. Better idea is to use Gauss-Jordan elimination and back substitution. Better yet, use a pivoting. Better yet, factorize the matrix. Etc.
Even in 100 years, people hiking through remote wilderness will prefer paper maps that won't run out of charge or have software bugs. Arguably we may find a better synthetic material to print them on, but paper is a damn good solution right now.
Technically they are correct :)

> I don't see Apple taking on server markets, where the power per watt is perhaps less important.

While, as an HPC admin, I don't expect to see any Apple branded XServes in our system room for a long time (if ever), or their silicon on any other system, many HPC and data center operators would love to have servers with better performance per watt, because cooling these systems is a pain.

Everybody is moving to direct liquid cooling systems beyond a specific performance point, and this is not making things simpler.

Well, loops are not loops in functional languages...
This has not been true in my experience, as someone who is used to talking to a mathematician during my academic life (a bit). They prefer to not use words like "just X".

They generally reply in definite statements, "this is undecidable", "this is an example of X", "this can't be done without Y", they rarely say.
"X is just Y", they would probably say, "X is Y".

The "just" implies some form of detail that might be missing in the relation generally. Even my mathematical text books of pretty advanced topics rarely used "just".

Again, what you say is most likely true when math people talk amongst themselves but I don't think they do so with other non math people. I was in compsci.
They're readily available in the US as well. I've mostly used them with pocket holes.
Hold a screwbit upside down, put the fastener on it, tip it over. If the fastener falls off before you hit the 45 degree point then it's the wrong bit, the right one will probably stay wedged way past that point to where you are wondering if it is going to fall at all.
From the article:

I feel like that single line illustrates just how badly GNOME has lost the plot over the last decade.

For in-process DLL-based servers, you could try to implement CoCreateClass (IIRC) manually and bypass GUID-to-server lookup and go directly for loading a DLL and calling the method for getting the object from it.

details from [3]

"It appears Apple has not changed the CPU much this generation. SemiAnalysis believes that the next generation core was delayed out of 2021 into 2022 due to CPU engineer resource problems. In 2019, Nuvia was founded and later acquired by Qualcomm for $1.4B. Apple’s Chief CPU Architect, Gerard Williams, as well as over a 100 other Apple engineers left to join this firm. More recently, SemiAnalysis broke the news about Rivos Inc, a new high performance RISC V startup which includes many senior Apple engineers. The brain drain continues and impacts will be more apparent as time moves on. As Apple once drained resources out of Intel and others through the industry, the reverse seems to be happening now.

We believe Apple had to delay the next generation CPU core due to all the personnel turnover Apple has been experiencing. Instead of a new CPU core, they are using a modified version of last year’s core. One of these modifications is related to the CPU core’s MMU. This work was being done for the upcoming colloquially named “M1X” generation of Mac chips. Part of the reason for this change is related to larger memory sizes and virtualization features/support. In addition, there may be other small changes as well, but we need hardware in the hand to analyze that. We also aren’t sure if Avalanche and Blizzard are the next generation cores or the current modified Firestorm and Icestorm cores.

Regardless of the paltry CPU gains and potential core architecture delays, Apple is still the leader in performance per watt. With Intel design teams starting to get back on track, AMD executing almost flawlessly, and Qualcomm coming in soon like a hammer with Nuvia cores, we aren’t sure if this lead will be sustained. The A11 to A12 generation was seen as Apple starting to asymptote out on gains with only a 15% gain, and the A13 to A14 looked even more weak with 8.3% gains, but now with no CPU gains, let’s cross our fingers and hope the A16 brings a large architectural change." source: [3]

"just" is used across technical academia (including philosophy) to mean "nothing over and above"
That's disappointing. The title's "Why No IPv6?", the domain is "whynoipv6.com", the first (and largest) header is "Why No IPv6?", but I'm yet to find an answer to that question. So - Why No IPv6?
I actually used this algorithm a decade ago to implement a log-based, transactional database system for an embedded system with very low amount of memory and requirement that all memory be statically allocated.

To the frustration of the rest of the development team who first called me an idiot (I was new) then they could not make quicksort run as fast on inputs that were capped at something like 500 items. Apparently, algorithmic complexity isn't everything.
On my NAS I run a Mullvad/WireGuard container with a kill switch, and Jackett, qBittorrent, etc. share its network stack. Being able to do so with a single Docker Compose option (`network_mode: container:vpn`) is a killer feature.

So I download everything I can't legally access here, and don't have to worry about my IP leaking. Then on my TV I open Kodi and enjoy.

Cheaper than Netflix+Prime+Hulu+Disney+Apple+HBO and pretty low maintenance.
While I tend to agree to the conclusion on premature optimization - I disagree with the assumption that it is premature for most startups. In fact it's a reasonable insurance for startups (that is - if at all they succeed) it'll solve the problem of scale at that point without needing to make huge changes.

BTW Google open-sourced Kubernetes not for charity (like all businesses they also want to make money), they knew they had lost the cloud war with Amazon/Azure gulping up almost 80-90% market share. So they wanted a platform on which they can lure users back to Google Cloud when they start providing kick-ass services (to avoid the much famed vendor lock-in). And since docker was able to solve the dependency management in a reasonable way (not in a very esoteric way like nix) and were dipping their toes into distributed orchestration, they took it as a open fundamental unit to solve orchestration of distributed systems.

But yes Google succeeded in convincing dev/ops to use k8s by frightening them with vendor lock-in. But the most ironic thing that I see about k8s is that all these HPA, Restart on crash all those things are being touted as great new features. These features have existed in Erlang for decades (supervisors and spawning actors). I'm not sure why Google did not try to leverage the Erlang ecosystem - it might have been much faster to market (may be NIH).
You just showcased my point! People would spend weeks in search for solutions that implement part of required functionality, instead of using whatever they're most familiar with and move on.
Yes, fortunately including an aux port doesn't preclude also including Bluetooth. To quote the article:

> It has NFC for pairing with wireless headphones, but it also has a headphone jack so you can choose. Shock of horrors
I don't think Wayland will ever be a full replacement for me as it lacks network transparency. I really love that about X and with cloud solutions this usecase is becoming more important again.

It's up to the client to (choose to) implement the guidance, and, as a consequence, to realize the consequences, good, bad, or a combination of both.
It's healthy to depend on your coworkers for their specific knowledge. The landscape is too large for everyone to know everything, and honestly if I heard someone say this in an interview I would chalk it down to social deficits because this is not how life, businesses, etc. work

Intel's stated TDPs are not accurate representations of how much power a chip actually uses. You can see in some of these Blender benchmarks the 12900k hitting >230W average:

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-core-i9-12900k-an...

It's very workload-dependent, so it's difficult to say how much power a chip will draw in general. It's clear that Intel is still a bit of an energy hog, though.
I like to keep music playback separate from my phone because I hate having it interrupted by some random app notification. And on my smartphone I have to push the volume to the max to barely reach the level I consider normal with my headphones. On the Walkman that's not an issue and the difference in sound is immediately noticeable. Of course that doesn't matter if you use Bluetooth, but as there isn't a single decent pair of BT headphones with replaceable batteries on the market I'll keep using cables in the foreseeable future (and headphones have a minimum size, so the manufacturers can't even use their typical excuses for using glue).

Of course some phones are quite solid in terms of sound, with some music there's no difference either way, but without comparison you can't really know what's missing unfortunately.
I'm an avid letter writer and when pandemic hit I looked into online stamps. In Poland you can order stamps (to print at home) and even include your own graphics on them. I had a lot of fun with that and did people who got letters from me.

I have 3 large skylights which cause the rooms they are in to get very warm in the evening when it’s sunny. I used the Gila window film that is designed to block heat and UV but allow light through. Though somewhat expensive at around $50/roll to cover 2 skylights, it works extremely well and I wish I had used the film when I first moved in. A huge difference in temperature though I don’t have the empirical numbers. The film is adhesive and requires you to do some acrobatics to apply upside down in a skylight but very doable with a helper. It should be removable with a hair dryer.
There are just too many things I use that are very much dependent on X.

Mostly what comes to mind is Synergy and ThinLinc.

I know that it's become the norm for 21st century pseudo-intellectuals to demand "scientific research" for every little thing in life. Fundamentally, you simply won't acknowledge certain self-evident realities for what they are, but I do - and that's where we differ. This is not to say those studies don't exist - I'm often surprised at studies that make me go "duh" because "that's what I've intuitively known all my life". Like some people wouldn't acknowledge the fact that men are inherently much more muscular than women had there not been studies on that. That's one such self-evident reality.

So I say: You go keep searching for studies! :)

Meanwhile I'm going to keep living in and by self-evident reality. Personally, I find that the predictive power of that is yet to be beaten!
A few times, I almost emptied some scraps on my plate together with a spoon or a fork directly into a rubbish bin. Since observing that, I have always wondered how many other spoons I have inadvertently thrown over the years.
but if a stamp hasn't been postmarked, how are you to tell if its been used or not? and why is there an issue in using it?

I always got the impression that royal mail weren't that bothered about this or else they would make sure every stamp was franked. ultimately its their responsibility to frank their mail, if they don't do that, thats their problem, soon to be ours.
> You might have different experiences to me.

Definitely.

Your experience does sound demoralizing. I am not sure I have had Spotify crash on me thus far and certainly not with any regularity. I think it's safe to assume that you have an untypically bad experience, because if what you described was true for most people, Spotify would have no users.

Which begs the question, why do you stick to it? There are competing services. How could they possibly do a worse job, in light of what you are describing?
They could have done it without taking away convenient menus. Previously all apps had standardized interface, now everyone invents the bicycle for themselves.
It's because OTP does not integrate with anything not running on Erlang VM, and k8s instead derives from different family tree of general language-independent schedulers/environments.
