"High risk," yes, but when they were reporting on people who were actually dying of covid, for most of the first year, the data was that it was people with comorbidities, people who already had significant health conditions. It wasn't the 70yo marathoners who were dying. It was the ones who had CHF or COPD and obesity who were. (OF COURSE there are exceptions to this, but the majority of people who were dying were not otherwise healthy.)
It does matter to the customer of course, like I said, fraud is wrong.

But in practice it doesn't matter: even with a real chat, it's still one people getting their hopes up and another not caring and only doing it for the money.
Small correction; it’s DisplayLink, not DisplayPort. You have to use DisplayLink because they do some part in software as a part of their driver (which you must download and install) whereas the native Apple stuff has some internal hardware limitation.

I run three 1080p monitors off of my M1Pro, and I don’t notice any heavy CPU load from whatever software load the driver may be adding.
Answer is very simple. Amount of people who got paid to make python fast was rounded to 0.
Yes, depending on your needs Dendrite (Go impl, written by Element team (mostly Neil?)) works well (I've heard) and some people are even running Conduit (Rust impl, independent) as their main.
I found Škoda description lacking. Being one of few historic Czech car manufacturers is mention worthy.
I agree with your overall point, but GM was already widely seen as a has-been for years, maybe even decades, before 2008. They still had a lot of sales volume but apart from their trucks and a few SUVs, most of their products had been well behind those of their competitors in terms of both design and quality. So I don’t think they were really comparable to Apple at that point.
Where is the guarantee that the current situation is better, in terms of actively preventing that situation?
Might you or someone else be able to say why the state of the art Macbook is not capable of driving two monitors? Does this apply to all model or is this only an issue on the 14" MBPs and Airs?

I use that. Been toying with night mode, color filters, and even flux. It's still too extreme, though it helps with the whites the other colors look atrocious.

I have just about identical settings on both models and comparing the two laptops side-by-side, the 2015 looks much better. I still have "vivid" colors but the whites are more grey.

Must be a screen thing, some new IPS technology. I don't know. It's terrible.
Sounds like Apple. For a premium price they give you only bare minimum and if you want anything more you can pay thousands of dollars in pure premium and profit for Apple.

Of course sheep will keep buying these things.
> Which typical Air buyer needs 16gb ram

Typical Air user would be fine performance-wise with any laptop made in last 10 years TBH.

It's a premium product that is priced accordingly, so it's fine to complain about substandard specs.
We had to replace my wife’s intel MBP with 8G of memory because it was just not sufficient. She just does simple stuff with her laptop, web browsing, occasional videos, google spreadsheets and email. The thing would just grind to a halt. We bought a 16G MBP and she’s been fine.

I’m sure the ARM laptops are better with only 8G but I’m not going to test that idea. 16G is the bottom line for us from now on.
But that reduction in foreign terror attacks happened all over the world.

The Mumbai terror attack was followed by similar attacks in Paris where civilians going about their day were targeted.

That wave of terror is over, probably because ISIS and AQ are no longer the force they used to be.

Now it’s domestic terror and social polarization.

Don’t think these laws are the reason why foreign terror attacks reduced.
Can’t wait to decompile their Android apk tomorrow. I’m curious how FBI codes Android.
This is an important social engineering attack vector that all companies should be aware of. These kind of targeted attacks (often spoofing valid contacts that employees would legitimately exchange documents with) were common since I can remember the space, but using job applications is particularly disingenuous because employees are naturally going to be a bit secretive about those.

You can actually use microservices to reduce the complexity of a monolith.

One example which I built just for this purpose is Barricade https://github.com/purton-tech/barricade which extracts authentication out of your app and into a container.
Interestingly enough, if all of the above is true, then one can imagine that this very HN submission might be the work of a member of the Indian government/police wanting to increase pressure on Razorpay by applying negative PR to the company.

Yes, I completely agree. Most people know that it comes with the territory.
India has a very effective and fair electoral system, that's about it. The other branches and foundations of a liberal democracy are either a sham or crumbling in India.

Minorities are routinely targeted, court judgments are filled with personal opinions... i could go on.

The mere existence of a voting system does not a full democracy make. Remember, Russia also has "elections".
If you want one and if it's anything like the M1 devices right now, expect to wait till mid August or later if you want anything beyond the basic specs. Even now, M1 MBPs with 32 or 64GB RAM are a good 5-6 weeks out.
So we have:

* Statically allocated ("frozen") core modules for fast imports

* Avoid memory allocation for frames / faster frame creation

* Inlined python functions are called in pure python without needing to jump through C

* Optimizations that take advantage of speculative typing (Reminds me of Javascript JIT compilers -- though according to the FAQ Python isn't JIT yet)

* Smaller memory usage for frames, objects, and exceptions

Dang that certainly does sound like low hanging fruit. There's probably a lot more opportunities left if they want Python to go even faster.
And I could say the same to you as well.

Mass fun violence in the 80s were marked with higher powered guns, like the Uzi used in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Ysidro_McDonald%27s_mass...

More recently (now that the ban expired), we had Las Vegas and Orlando shootings, both using what would have been 'assault rifles' under that law.

-------

The most famous mass shooting of the 90s was Columbine, which only used pistols and pump-action sawed off shotguns, likely limiting the damage.

This is my ultimate point: if you think we can't stop the shootings, then we should do what we can to mitigate them. Forcing the perpetrators to use lower quality firearms seems to be practically effective.
>The point of Juul is to make money, sure you can use it to stop smoking cigarettes but there are also people starting vaping without ever having smoked cigarettes.

Yes if you only look at it from the company's earnings perspective, but the benefit to the market/society is undoubtedly to get people off cigarettes, and it has worked better as a substitute than anything before it. This is undeniable regardless of how demonized vaping has become in the US.

It's a very simple equation: allow Juul and get more people off cigarettes. Ban Juul and increase smoking rates. It's amazing how obtuse people (and the government) are on the subject.
I think it's not so much ironic, as cause-and-effect; many tech people are enthralled with the idea of anti-fragility precisely because they see the opposite so much in their own systems. One is most concerned with ideas for weight loss, if one is overweight.
I said it in my reply. Rust/Cargo.

Amusingly, I'm using Cargo and CC for a large C++ project I have. It's unholy and certainly wrong, but works beautifully and is not as bad as every other C++ build tool I have to use.
What's the point of your comment?

They don't claim it's pure Zig and even mention JavaScriptCore in their front page.
Too many things with Pypy (and other supposedly faster implementations) don't work, so it's a no-go for a lot of projects to begin with.

In the last 10 years, I looked into pypy I think three or four times to speed things up, it didn't work even once. (I don't remember exactly what it was that didn't play nice... but I'm thinking it must have been pillow|numpy|scipy|opencv|plotting libraries).

Just another reason crypto is a godsend for bad guys (obviously other financial crimes occur, e.g. with convincing folks to send fake wires) but there aren't many better ways to steal half a billion dollars I think. But, yeah yeah, "HN is so mean and hates crypto!!!"
Your federal rights also "cease to exist" the moment you cross the national border. By the same logic, we should be striving for One World Government, and anything less than that is unacceptable.

As for the federal government securing my individual rights in general - considering the existing federal drug laws, and the very real possibility of a federal abortion ban coming in a few years, I'd say you're cherry-picking here.
I think this is an amazing idea. There are so many possibilities!

This brings me back to when I worked on Excel. The formatting structs (and most cell related ones) are so tightly packed and the byte code VM for the formulas is pretty neat.

I wish I could have met duanec, that guy wrote probably 10% of the code for Excel. Sadly he had retired 2 years before I started working on Excel.

Fun fact: when they were about to ship Excel 1.0, they didn’t know what to name it then so they had an internal poll. The name that garnered the most votes was “Mr Spreadsheet”. Needless to say, marketing vetoed it.
Deviation from standards is what I find to cause a lot (the most?) of problems. Complexity generally makes things more error-prone, but it tends to become less of a problem when in a well maintained system a lot of people use (someone, maybe yourself, has already had and solved a problem you're having).

If your standard is dealing with systemd units, it may make sense to make your containers conform to that (thereby deviating from the most common way of managing containers). Maybe it's what I'd do in a larger operation. For my personal use I find it the most pragmatic to just use Docker since it's reasonably well documented, has reasonably low friction in usage and is very easy to set up.
There is a Yuancoin already btw. And there probably should also be an official US and Euro digital coin as well. But I do not think these alternatives will go to zero, rather they will act like ETFs, as they sort of do now. If they are collateralized properly, they should be fine.
Apparently they are working on it in PEP-480
I’m old enough to remember when Indian terrorists used to call up journalists and editors and demand that they be referred to as militants.
Stress. The kind of social, personal, financial stress people experienced, especially the "essential workers" who had to continue working in person, or people who were already struggling to make ends meet who suddenly didn't get paid what they were expecting, went through significant life stress events.

Or around the world, millions of additional people have been added to the ranks of the "food insecure," who now run increased risk of malnourishment and starvation.

There's certainly an extremely privileged cohort, probably heavily represented on HN, for whom transitioning to WFH was no big deal or actually a benefit, but we're still feeling the effects of supply chain disruptions even in the wealthiest countries, and there are millions (billions?) of people whose lives are much more severely impacted.
> but once people review your CV, it's a BIG deal. Having a leadership experience opens doors like no other, both on the amount of offers and salary.

This is exactly what's stopping me from accepting it, in year or so I could make a leap to another company as TL for a much higher pay.

I do prefer a tech lead position than a team lead one, but one can easily transition to the other once you got your foot in the door (you got it in your CV).

Well, you obviously shouldn't pull it, because if you do, your opponents will use it as a precedent to do the same thing in the future.

You then lose the election, and they start pulling the lever over and over again.
There's some beastly new laptops that recently came out, with Intel gen 12 and Nvidia 3000 series GPUs, the price is around 1300-1700 USD range. The power usage is higher than MacBook but if you use it plugged in for programming (and gaming) it's really the best thing for most people.

Reviews seem to say battery life ranges from 4 to 10 hours depending on the configuration. This gen is way thinner than previous also. Refresh rate is 120-300hz. Anyway I've not personally used it but I'll be trying them out in the store soon.

I wonder if in the future this could be used to help care for people in long term hospital stays who are unable to brush/floss, or people who require at home care. Very interesting idea but I think it will take a long time for the general public to adopt this tech.
> Of course one wonders why they haven't been a low-hanging fruit over the past 25 years.

Because it's developed and maintained by volunteers, and there aren't enough folks who want to spend their volunteer time messing around with assembly language. Nor are there enough volunteers that it's practical to require very advanced knowledge of programming language design theory and compiler design theory as a prerequisite for contributing. People will do that stuff if they're being paid 500k a year, like the folks who work on v8 for Google, but there aren't enough people interested in doing it for free to guarantee that CPpython will be maintained in the future if it goes too far down that path.

Don't get me wrong, the fact that Python is a community-led language that's stewarded by a non-profit foundation is imho its single greatest asset. But that also comes with some tradeoffs.

Looked into it but the need to grant screen recording permission really made me uncomfortable.

EDIT: not sure why this was downvoted. All DisplayLink devices need to be granted screen recording permission to work on macOS.
I find asyncio to be horrendous, both because of the silliness of its demands on how you build your code and also because of its arbitrarily limited scope. Thread/ProcessPoolExecutor is personally much nicer to use and universally applicable...unless you need to accommodate Ctrl-C and then it's ugly again. But fixing _that_ stupid problem would have been a better expenditure of effort than asyncio.
Some in the security community demonstrated this with Robin Sage, circa 2009: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Sage

It introduces the idea of "transitive trust" where person A might not know person B but if the two have a bunch of contacts in common, the odds of A trusting B goes up. When there's a profile with tens or hundreds of shared connections, it looks real by all accounts.

asyncio is still single-threaded due to the GIL.
It's probably more likely to be implementation-defined behaviour (as with the signedness of 'char') rather than undefined behaviour.

I think you are confusing their review of MacBook Pro M2 with the MacBook Air m2.
Huh! That makes sense. And is also confusing. It’s not problem solving; it’s reading stories from which you might glean some combination of hope and a technique or two to mimic.

If I wanted to solicit stories like that, I’d tend to post on Reddit rather than HN and ask something like, “How did those of you who went on dozens or even a hundred dates with little success find a life partner?”
It seems like FDA overreach. I mean I get that we don't want teens to get hooked on a bad habit, but.... sugar is marketed like crazy to toddlers, kids, teens etc. in a much more aggressive way and is by far more harmful in the long run.

I don't vape anymore, but it was fun and passed the time. I'd much rather see FDA approved vape formulas than random suppliers with who knows what inside them.
>Remember, most of our ancestors didn't live to be old enough to need delicate dental hygiene.)

Really low historical life expectancy figures are mostly due to extremely high infant and childhood mortality as well as higher mortality in childbirth. It's not like adults were elderly at 40.
Yeah, though I'd get dinged by that either way since I normally update my bio to include recent projects/tech I've worked with. This way I can hide behind plausible deniability "Oh, I just got around to adding X company to my LinkedIn" if I need to, whereas updating an existing entry is harder to justify (without giving away you are looking). Though I also try not to work for companies that I would need to worry about that.
Any forum that does not frown upon it ends up with a bunch of low effort rehashed posts by people who don't know enough to actually discuss the topic at hand. This dilutes an interesting conversation at best, and at worst just makes the signal/noise ratio so low that people with knowledge on the topic get drowned out for the lols and eventually stop contributing. Its nice that HN is an island away from that.
Am I the only one who thinks that the "ethics" part of philosophy is kind of trivial? The only part of philosophy which took me a long time to form a clear opinion on was the hard problem of consciousness and related topics.

Why walking on Legos hurts more than walking on fire or ice (2018)
I think you've kind of proven my point, as Dirk Gently is more of a comedy than a mystery. The absurdity of a detective finding a lost cat is what makes it funny. And then all the rest about time travel... I mean, if you want to make a comedy mystery you would want to violate as many of these "commandments" as you could.
> If you are morally responsible for the child's death, you are morally responsible for basically every evil in the world right now, since you didn't do everything in your power to prevent all of them.

That is my personal take on it. We are all living in sin, in reality we are all full of shit and have only a veneer of ethics.

You don’t own the phone. Right now you’re only able to have a phone that’s not completely user-hostile because one big company (Apple) currently uses privacy as a selling point.

In Android-land the only way to regain control mostly relies on security vulnerabilities.

You can’t really build your own either; most apps (including for government services) require either iOS or Android (with Google Play services) and neither can be licensed.

You can’t build your own clients either - copyright law has successfully been used to sue developers of third-party clients despite displaying content the user is authorized to view (and can view in the official client).
There's a version of the problem that tries to highlight this:

A runaway trolley is heading down the tracks toward five workers who will all be killed if the trolley proceeds on its present course. Next to you is a stranger who happens to be very large. The only way to save the lives of the five workers is to push this stranger onto the tracks where his large body will stop the trolley. The stranger will die if you do this, but the five workers will be saved.

Does the act of physically pushing a person onto the tracks make it different than pulling a lever?
Seeing my kids (non-identical twins, 2yrs old) playing together now, I can very much believe this.

We didn't set out to have two at once, but we're really pleased with how it turned out for us.

To the OP - Congratulations. Becoming a father has been an amazing experience for me. I wish you all the best!
