I doubt that EU wants companies to leave the market and they don't seem to encourage the growth of profitable European competitors to Google/Apple, so most likely it's the literacy issue and on top of that they're "surveying the grounds" to see how far can they go.

I mean, i would understand if the "gatekeeper" stuff was pushed by countries/organizations that have little to no manufacturing prowess, but it's Europe we're talking about and there's no way that the EU doesn't understand what they're doing (unless...).
Hacker News is mostly a Developer Oriented and Science Oriented site.

These kind of news sounds like TeleMarketing and makes me deeply sad.

Thanks for the reminder hn - you never fail to deliver.
There is a reasonable way to remove the risk completely with roblox and discord: prevent your children from using them. In fact, it is the only way to even mitigate the risks at all, shy of helicopter parenting.

What is the codec requires proprietary hardware only available from Apple, Google and the likes? Is it free or not really then?
Well, duristiction of domains (also hosting) can be a factor as well and looking at ways to curtail it being easily removed and with that - out of reach of parties involved.

The fact that it persisted for decades and increased in capacity is proof that it benefited Germany and the other European countries.

And you’ve noticed yourself that the benefits accrued in the EU and the costs were incurred in Ukraine. But this is oversimplifying things - the Ukraine war has other important geopolitical facets besides the admittedly important energy aspect, such as NATO expansion.
I'm usually here to promote starlink? Before yesterday go through my comment history for weeks or months into the past and find how many times I mention it... Sheesh

For the record if oneweb or kuiper or telesat's proposed LEO networks existed as a viable, usable product right now and worked similarly I'd be equally enthused about them. (Yes, I know about Oneweb beta tests in Alaska)

These snipes don’t matter when it comes to war. Conservatives and mainstream dems are in full support of wasting billions of dollars to blow stuff up in other countries. What they say may be slightly different, but the end goal is full support of the imperialist stance and the gleeful military complex.
> Women are … 11 times more likely to report being labeled as abrasive

> Specific and constructive feedback about someone’s work performance offers them more opportunities to grow.

If “abrasive“ is not constructive and the person is at risk of losing her job because she is abrasive, are you suggesting she not be told she is abrasive?
Students in Sweden use the teacher's first name. Today it is uncommon to hear people use proper titles.

To download Xcode you'll need an Apple ID. Developing for macOS / iOS without a free Apple ID doesn't make much sense though as you need it to sign the software and deploy it to test devices anyway.

That doesn't seem like an unreasonable requirement that you need an account with the platform vendor for that.
Yes, the UI is all from scratch. My inspiration was from seeing other audio-reactive videos on Youtube, but those were rendered with either Adobe After Effects or a 3D program like Blender. I wanted to build something that was easy for the average person to use.
Because it is an apt descriptor.
the answer is simple: "essential functions of the job"

If that means a certain amount of teamwork, mentorship, etc and the person is unable or unwilling to perform that, then they are not meeting the essential functions of the job.

Programmers for example need to commit their work to source control... with reasonable commit messages, docs/comments, tests, etc.

Given the similarities between a Gamecube and a g4-era iBook (down to the ATI 9200-Like GPU) I'm surprised nobody ever tried modifying Dolphin to boot up Mac Os Classic.

In case of HBO Max it's probably because they licensed most of their content to Sky. I'm sure once that agreement runs out we will see HBO Max in Germany. And Sky will be even more worthless to non-sport audiences.
At this point it's investigation, why can't we wait for conclusion. Also, people in EU trust EU wayyy more than US tech companies.

Eventually they will enable inter-satellite links.

But they could also quite easily support global coverage by bouncing data off other users dishes. The latency would be a bit higher and the service reliability a bit lower, but I would guess the result would still be far better than alternatives for maritime comms.

I'm actually really surprised they haven't done this already - it seems like something they could easily support, and it means they could deploy to anywhere in the world with mere hours notice, at least for a basic level of service.

Imagine the possibility of a demo sitting in the office of say the telecoms minister of venezuela... "So today, we have no infrastructure in your country. But we have something we'd like permission to deploy. Do you give us permission to transmit to your office to give it a demo? Yes. [Nods to engineer who types a few commands...]. Okay, it's enabled. Here it is working - this is the internet your citizens can get anywhere in the country tomorrow if you give us approval."
Hard to understate how shocking this is, and may reverberate in Japan for years to come
I think if you surveyed a decent amount if people who are 70+ years old with no children, you'd find out if this is a fail or not... I think you can predict the answer.
Which is exactly how it works. Not sure about the casting aspersions bit though.
Do they do unit test at all?
No. In fact, it is the exact opposite.

Who would YOU think is more valuable - someone who stayed in the same job for 10 years, made 4 or 5% wage increases every year, or someone that drastically increased their income every few years. So lets take 2 people who both start at making $60,000. One of them stays in the same job and gets a 4% increase per year will make and at the end of 10 years will be making $85,398 per year. Meanwhile, person 2 switches jobs every 2 years and has 5 jobs during those 10 years, but each one new job he or she makes a lot more money at the job hire. So he (or she) like the first person also starts at $60K and does that for 2 years, then gets another job for $80K, and another 2 years gets another job for $95K, and 2 years later gets $115K, and 2 years after that makes $125K. People get hired at one rate, but as soon as they are in the system, people are more or less locked into the 4% raise per year. No company will pay a current employee as much as they will a new hire. So anyways, which candidate is more interesting to the average hiring person? The one who keeps making more money every 2 years, and switching jobs. Why? Because, wow, that person must be really worth it and companies are fighting to hire a person who most likely is a top performer, so they think. Why would someone keep hiring him at higher and higher salary if he or she is not worth it? I'm not saying that this thinking is correct. I'm not saying that there are not companies out there who still look for people who want to stay a long time. But most companies will want to hire the person who changes jobs a lot, because there is a competition that develops. Also, throughout one's 20's, people really don't expect someone that age to settle down. Once one reaches 35-ish years old, they might expect a longer stay at a company.

But, ALWAYS go for more money, all things being equal.

Well I was surprised to receive the "lettre avec accusé de réception" recently. So HADOPI's not dead yet, unfortunately...

Ineffective to prevent torrenting, they definitely are. But I think they are winning on the ideas front unfortunately. The idea that 'pirating' is immoral has made its way to the general public. I wonder if I'll see the time where everyone is convinced that you're stealing something when you lend a book to a friend, or when you play music in your house and some people that aren't spotify subscribers can hear it.
The end results of the link budgets required for geostationary to low cost consumer grade terminals means that now matter how good viasat's tech is, the end result is going to be mediocre. Have you actually lived on the far end of a consumer grade highly contended oversubscribed ku/ka band vsat terminal?

Viasat's modems and rf chain stuff are about as good as can be expected within the very constrained BOM budget, antenna gains and link budgets involved.
I always hate that excuse. “If you don’t do it, someone else will.”

Great, let them try. We need the people with morals to stand up against doing this kind of work. At the very least it shrinks the talent pool and hopefully stymies efforts to get state surveillance off the ground. Working on it because someone else would “get the chance to” is really just tantamount to completely selfish disregard.

Imagine doing something amazing that wasn’t used to oppress people…
This is a common theme in sports teams. One guy is toxic but contributes a lot, should we keep him?

Luckily most teams are not sports teams, and most people are replaceable.

The thing about toxicity is it's contagious. People will start to use it as signalling: "I say toxic things because I'm valuable". It's like that cartoon of The Internet Commentator's Fallacy.
I've felt this way a few times. But whenever I think about building some of my personal apps as desktop only to reduce the hosting burden I remember that I want to access a lot of that data on mobile too and getting sqlite to sync around to my mobile device is a real pain (not to mention now having to build a mobile app to read it).

Web apps are just real convenient on the usage side even if I loathe building them most of the time.

NixOS does systemd right:

- systemd gives the use a unified API for working with services. The journal etc.

I've been in this field for 15 years. So I already feel like I dinosaur. The trajectory of the market tells me I probably cannot last another 10.

To those who say, "it's even harder now to find good developers", to me that means the answer is Yes.
Well, hopefully the climate will change and others will come forward once it gets traction as a lot of things just get glossed over and burried to the stage that it does nobody any good and just enables bad actors more than is right. Don't even get me started on the court system which hands out weak sentences and then gives a 50% discount - even today that the whole deterant it was is nolonger the case as it has become so watered down that it casts a mockery of it all and that's just the instances in which it even gets and goes to trial.

I distrust their motivations. I don't know anyone who doesn't either. Their regulatory and privacy stance is actively harmful at the moment.

!: this is mostly a personal note although I am one of the nimskull contributors

For now the aim of this project is first and foremost refactoring and making it easier to contribute and improve the main code base of the compiler, as indicated by the "near-term" timeline that is shown in the readme.

This is mostly a disclaimer for the common reaction that invariably starts to move the discussion in the direction of "why not contribute to mainline instead", "disgruntled people" etc. etc.

At the moment we are focused on making it easier to work with the codebase - more documentation, cutting down on decades-old cruft and legacy features, unraveling mysteries of the commit messages that were written with this attitude https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/19211#issuecomment-9859... ("I have no intention to follow this guideline so I cannot accept it.")

Applying data-oriented design principles, writing a specification, providing guides for compiler developers https://nim-works.github.io/nimskull/debug.html and focusing on what is important for people who work in the project.

At least that's why I work on nimskull. I don't want to go into another round of "stories" that describe some interpersonal issues (which of course exist) and we explicitly opted to keep this our of readme as well, even though other might be interested in dirty details.

I think you underestimate the amount of bureaucracy they can muster to avoid acknowledgement and change. But I live in hope.
If you think that the network engineers running starlink in Redmond are going to walk blindly into the mistakes made in excessively oversubscribed networks by every pre existing geostationary vsat consumer grade service, you must have a very low opinion of their intellect, experience and ability to research the market.
> They sacked (sorry furloughed, some other euphemism is needed here) far too many staff including ground staff, even licenced engineers,

... while taking big money from the government. That's what i call successful business.
It’s not really the same, that sounds like “redraw” here where you put more money into the loan but you can take it out again. Offset has all the benefit (reduced interest payments), with total flexibility. You can clear out your offset accounts anytime without penalty (redraw usually attracts a fee)
The best open source backend framework there.
but it is? Which one is the best-known in your opinion then?
Job "hopping" does if we mean that you stay less than 1,5 years. It shows your motivations are not serious enough to really get involved. But young people are kinda encouraged to see more workplaces and have some raises (that's honestly the best way to get one), maybe also work abroad... until you settle with a family or a particularly good spot and you have no more time or effort to change.
Ditto! It took me a while to realise my DNS settings were ok.

I had a teammate who shouted me down in a meeting, said my opinions were invalid and he didn’t need to explain anything to me. (I had asked why we were building an entire in memory implementation of a sql database engine just to run tests and prototypes)

Anyhow, he continued being incredibly abrasive and angry until our supervisor called a meeting and he claimed that he had aspergers - which may have been true but it effectively tied the hands of my manager. They explained to me that they could not let him go even though it would be best for the team, because he had made this statement and there could be legal troubles if they did.

So he continued on being toxic, until he blew up in a PR review (basically left an insane set of GitHub comments) and they decided this was too much and they moved him to another project/team where he would have very little interaction with people.

Anyway just wanted to leave this as an anecdote for a situation where the solution was very difficult to solve and eventually it was sort of solved but it definitely required managers giving feedback about someone’s personality.
My point was not backprop, but time of publication.

However, "reverse-mode" AD is not as simple as just caching results.

> BP’s continuous form was derived in the early 1960s (Kelley, 1960; Bryson, 1961; Bryson and Ho, 1969). Dreyfus (1962) published the elegant derivation of BP based on the chain rule only.

> explicit, efficient error backpropagation (BP) in arbitrary, discrete, possibly sparsely connected, NN-like networks

But that wasn't close enough to current BP

> BP’s modern efficient version for discrete sparse networks (including FORTRAN code) was published by Linnainmaa (1970). Here the complexity of computing the derivatives of the output error with respect to each weight is proportional to the number of weights. That’s the method still used today.

See [1] for more details.

I do not know the exact implementation details of Linnainmaa's BP, but there are all sorts of improvements to plain reverse mode auto-grad through stuff like Jacobian-Vector products that save an enormous amount of memory.

Nocedal's "Numerical Optimization" covers a great deal on how to implement autograd, and I can easily recommend it to anyone interested.

Airbus A380 superjumbo makes a comeback as passenger numbers soar
Yes one other trick that has worked for me is you put alarm for sleep not waking up.

So i put three alarms in alexa everyday at 7:30pm, 8:00pm and 8:30pm where alexa says "time to sleep, I'm reminding you time to sleep for a great day tomorrow and last is final reminder, it's time to sleep." respectively.

I have seen that 3 reminders to sleep does it and we all go to bed always before the 3rd reminder. I have never slept before 4am otherwise. So weird a robot voice can have this effect, but its the only thing that was able to fix my sleep schedule.

The only con is when you have guests over and alexa starts speaking like this, it can make things very weird and people feel we are trying to make them leave :P

Good question. They may not be aware of it. Though I did talk with one of their neighbors who mentioned they had it.
I'd like to put a word in for the early morning walk. Before the streets are crowded and all business is happening. There will still be a interesting activity to observe as the city wakes up and begins preparation for the new day. Maybe you'll find out where the cabbies meet and what they do to pass the slower hours. Who buys the first bread when the bakeries open. In some cities, there may be animals about that would wouldn't see during the day!
That is a correct interpretation, we decided some humor won't hurt at the start, and it certainly wasn't as venomous (aka "death to nim") as parent comments suggested
