This is a great post, petitSeb is doing an outstanding job on Box86/64.
I'm also keeping an eye on FEX which is evolving very rapidly. There has been 4 releases since the linked blog post which was written in late March, introducing very welcome features such as support for pressure-vessel or better OpenGL and Vulkan thunking.
The author's car (where you presumably have some assurance the firmware on the device is what is claimed? Sure.

A random car from a 2nd hand car lot with a mystery custom firmware? Oh hellllllll no.

This only add value if you assume there are no bad actors. I'd bet $100 if this becomes common, 2nd hand car lots will sell access to install creepy tracking firmware on all cars that pass through their hands.
Interesting you brought up the postgres issue. We are facing the same right now in Germany West Central region and the support's response is "consider deployment in other region".
Will revoking their license stop Nutanix from using MinIO or will they have to go to court to get them to stop? I don't see any mention of a lawsuit in the post.

It's really difficult to find solid guidance on how secure that is.

E.g. tag the port on the switch, run a cable to the device so that it doesn't know there's a vlan involved, block routing between vlans. As far as I can tell that's probably good but might not be.

So, to confirm for the comparison, in a nutshell (Some of the upstream posts in this sub-thread imply the bypass section of a TF provides its thrust directly, which I believe your post is showing is incorrect):

- Treat TJ as base model
- TF uses the bypass section to provide additional power to the compressor
- TP generates its thrust from a prop on the shaft, vice the core's output (is this called exhaust?). TJ and TF both use the core's output for thrust.

Is this right?
Again, agreed on all counts. Unfortunately, however, while Markdown (any flavor you choose) is pretty great for writing text, it's really limited in the types of formatting you can do, hence also the types of documents you can create.

That leads you down one of two routes:

1. Massively extend Markdown so it can do a large-ish subset of what LaTeX can do, or

2. Slightly extend Markdown so it can do enough to be useful, but nowhere near what LaTeX can.

I don't see a great way to do option 1 without making something that's nearly as complex as LaTeX. Option 2 doesn't seem all that great to me, except maybe as a gateway drug to LaTeX.

Maybe I'm thinking about it all wrong here, but it seems like Markdown itself sits at or near some local optimum of complexity vs utility that's pretty strongly attracting in the sense that going too far away from that point makes you lose the thing that makes Markdown attractive in the first place.
To add some specifics, I think the common case outside of the US is one where the published elements must both (a) be true, and; (b) have been published for some "legitimate purpose". The phrase "legitimate purpose" is generally understood to mean "whose primary purpose is not to cause harm or nuisance". An example of legitimate purpose would be governmental transparency. An example in which something true could still be considered libelous might be notifying your ex-spouse's employer of his/her public intoxication charge for the purposes of stunting his/her career.

(I'm basing this general comment on my understanding of French law. I believe it works similarly in many, if not most, European countries. I hope some actual legal experts can weigh in!)

It worked in 2016.
While interviewing for a startup, the CTO asked the Lead Frontend Engineer if they had any questions for me.
The Lead replied: "Are you serious? I literally learned Bootstrap from his blog!"

Never worked again since (Yes, I stopped writing about Bootstrap in 2014).
Knowingly shipping code that generates warnings during build is anti-social. It usually isn't that much work to fix a warning as you are writing the code and you encounter the warning the first time. It becomes much more expensive to fix warnings later because you do not have the mental context you had when you wrote the code.

But some people behave like that. They think it is someone else's job to chase down bugs in their code after they have knowingly submitted code with defects rather than deal with it immediately.

Classifying something as an error rather than a warning makes zero difference to programmers who take care not to knowingly ship defects. It only makes a difference to people who were going to ignore it and let someone else take up their slack. And to be frank: why on earth would you want to accomodate them?
Unfeasible.

Whois data are heavily redacted, and not really checked upon, so you have two problems:

* you have access only to redacted data;

* and also if you had access to original data, they are basically free form text;
> Every business needs a bespoke website, so all the web developers have plenty of work.

Not sure this is reality; or that a meritocracy for webdevs exists.

In recent years, it seems the quality of big "prestige brand" websites (not exactly big tech) is declining, to the point of being unusable on mobile browsers or throttled connections. Not because of technical trade-offs, but reliance on frameworks to achieve "demoable effects" instead of real world features or usability.

We're more than fifteen years into "ajax" and today's kids simply can't do it without burning 10x the cpu cycles and bandwidth. To me it seems there is a decoupling between the utility of webdevs and their pay, and some sort of market failure is occurring.
if you don't fully trust your hardware wallet, you could try multisig with multiple wallets of different vendors. also see BLS signatures.

Ethereum is much better in these scenarios.
45km/h is the perfect speed to get honked at even by people who are following the speed limits. The only place they are useful is 30 km/h zones and for those a 25km/h electric bicycle is more versatile because you can use it on bicycle paths.
They have a monopoly on AI hardware, so it makes perfect sense for them to make people care about AI.

The rationale I've heard is that taking the time to read the code written in this style doesn't take longer than if it was written in a more conventionally verbose style, but more fits on the screen, so it can be comprehended more easily once it's understood. I don't really buy that for C, because the language is so ugly and hard to read in normal style, but for array languages it strikes me as being true.
Both can simultaneously be true.
> Put a speed limit on a bike path then, not on device.

No. Speed limits require enforcement which is costly and socially harmful, adds massive overhead to owning a bike, and does not work. Just look at cars. Then you need safety features on the road, ppe, and vehicle for dealing with people that are moving faster anyway.

Then there's a slippery slope towards mandated tracking and anti repair garbage that we're already sliding down. Yamaha and Bosch are already lobbying for geofencing.

If you want a powered vehicle for mixing with cars at car speeds, we already have a category for that -- it's called a motorbike.

If you want a powered vehicle for doing 50km/h we have a category for that -- microcars and mopeds. Lobby for more 40 and 50 zones that are only for those (and for bicycles and pedestrians to share at their own judgement as they do roads).

Ebikes are already excessively large and heavy due to improper testing methodology on power limits. We don't need giant, overpowered machines and importing the arms race on size and mandatory safety regulations from roads.
This is what I commented last time this rebuttal paper made the rounds on HN:

While I've also conjectured in the past that at least a good chunk of extreme supercentenarians are due to anagraphical errors if not outright fraud, I do not think that the paper support the thesis well.

For starter they do not have a global model, it seems that they handpicked different statistics for different areas that support their thesis (they do not even show anything concrete for Japan).

Regarding Sardinia, their numbers seem actually wrong: looking at the raw Istat data the numbers for 55 year life expectancy for the Sardinian provinces seem in line with the rest of Italy (95-96%) putting Sardinia somewhere in the middle of the (quite tight) Italian distribution.

It is possible that the researcher averaged the data over a longer period of time that I bothered to look, but the paper doesn't discuss the methodology.

Their fitting, p value not withstanding, also seem a bit adventurous; the fact that all and almost only Sardinian provinces are extreme outliers should have been a tell. The rest of the Italian provinces are in a tight uniform cluster.

Sardinia, except for a very brief period in the mid 2010s,has only 4 provinces, so it is possible that messed up their data extraction (they show 8 provinces).

Also Sardinia is not particularly poorer than the rest of Southern Italy and actually has a lower crime rate (which they suggest but not outright state is a factor).

A better paper would probably try to build a single model for Japan, Italy and US using actual mortality, crime and poverty rates.
Me too, because that is the usual hoping the compiler does the right thing, tied to LLVM, and not part of language semantics.
Something like the eRockit is a better idea.
Please don't blame engineers on every single issue. The engineer may not even know there's an issue here. They may be assured by their boss or legal department that they are in the clear. They may not even think about such mundane things like licensing and stuff, that's what they have higher ups for.

If someone is to blame, then it's the company leadership and legal department. As much as we want to make us engineers more important than we are, we are not decision makers. Blame should be put where it belongs.
Depending on where the vulnerability exists it can be patched by patching the microcode right?
The story of appeasement was basically that the Nazis kept invading places, country after country, until they tried to take on the USSR and got transformed into paste (the US getting involved being a major factor). It was really quite breathtaking in hindsight because they wouldn't stop and obviously didn't intend to stop, ever.

gp's argument has no parallel to appeasement.

Bias may be the wrong word but i didnt intend to make it sound like an excuse for Netflix - just a reason why consumers think Netflix sucks. Trust me, i have cancelled Netflix precisely because it has stopped producing as much good content.
yes, but unfortunately that is an exacting definition of the hyperloop compared to a device which actually was made and used regadless of it's commercial success and failings. The other IS snake oil.
Given the nature of technology these days, with the ready available of grid power, next day shipping, and wide variety of information on demand, it's easier to describe the limits to what can be made.

Obviously - illegal stuff.

Anything bigger than about 8 foot in length, or more than 1000kg in mass. If you can pick it up solo, you might be able to build it.

Machining wise, you can buy tools to measure down to a micron, and harbor freight has stuff to get you to 25 microns. Used machine tools are widely available.

Integrated circuits are outside your time and dollar budget. But Sam Zeloof could give you pointers.

Most of the time they won't need to go that far. The review itself will usually indicate which department a person's from and what their main gripes are. Sure, this won't work for FAANG or a factory where everyone hates "long hours, low pay" though the text analysis probably won't help much either, but if it's someone from an SME's dev team (n=10), the dev team manager is going to have their suspicions as soon as they see the bullet point about rescinded work from home policies or lack of attention paid to testing deployments...

There's what people think and then there is observed reality. Observed reality informs us that this is a big problem with Python, so we'll just have to accept that. What people could do isn't the issue - what people do is. Also, you don't fix a problem by adding complexity and unpredictability. Again, as reality informs us, this hasn't worked for Python. It is still a mess.

Also, malware detection algorithms decrease their rating for the google.com domain when they encounter malicious content on this domain. Probably not an issue for google specifically, as they themselves control this list for Chrome, but for other companies this might be relevant too.

That's ridiculous - for a lot of people I know number one use case for Facebook is keeping in touch with people that move away - very often out of country.

Rebuilding social network would take a long time, having it country specific would be pointlessly limiting.

Chunking up internet between countries would be going down further into isolationism for GB since they aren't even a part of EU anymore.
That's true, and i suppose safety is good.

Equally, I'm dismayed at people with no road awareness and, seemingly, concern for their own and others safety, bring given these "light motorcycles" and riding them as if they are bikes... On pavements, on roads down the wrong way, through red lights and parks.

People aren't any smarter on purely mechanical bikes but there is a higher bar to being dangerous.
Not just electrical engineering - I was recently talking to my daughter who goes to a big tech university in the US. Very few students are enrolling in many engineering disciplines including civil engineering.
I think there is a high percentage of chance that the zygote will self terminate. That makes people who have difficulties to have kids serial killers no? I mean, my aunt had 19 zigotes implanted before she carried one to term, shouldn't this be illegal? Also, doesn't that makes people waiting to have kids (thus increasing the chance of early termination) immoral?
> EXI, a new way to transfer XML documents; instead of encoding it into an ASCII representation and gzipping it, it instead (iirc) turns an XML document into a binary representation or stream containing events similar to SAX as mentioned in this article. That could then be reshuffled and compressed for further efficiency

How would this compare to protobuf, in terms of efficiency?
I don’t blame people because they choose IT instead of EE - you don’t have to commute and there is no direct danger to your health if you fuck something up.
But it is a big problem for the environment if we don’t have people who can repair stuff because it will force us to buy new every time something is broken. If there only was something that could incentivise people to work in EE… $$$

They can't. Margins are thinner. Hardware companies have extra costs that software companies don't have.

I almost tripled my salary by moving from what the person your replied to is looking for to the web. AND it's easier. AND I can work remotely.

I don't blame them. But they'll be more and more desperate to attract people. The democratization of remote web jobs after COVID is another nail in the coffin. They pay less, 99% of the time you have to be in office. It's a losing battle.
I wonder why these folks keep doing this. Do they believe nobody will find out? Or that even if they find out, they won't have to pay much so they factor it in? It's really hard to imagine for me.

How far should companies battle to reveal the sources of mean reviews? Why not simply reply to those reviews with a counterbalancing response? It's not a big deal. I don't condone making fake reviews out of spite, or whatever is claimed in this case, but chasing reviewers through court action is petty.

One of the values on Zuru website is something about "think different" but what is thinking different about suing a negative reviewer?

So much bragging over there on the zurutoys.co/about-us pages, they talk themselves up big time. No environmental statement that I can see btw, just how amazing they are. Should environmental policies start imposing limits on how many plastic fish fidget spinners the world needs? If less quantities are made, their rarity provides value on the used/recycled market. May mean less rooms in mansion for company heads. Better for planet though.
This is only the microcode, not the deeper level minix, accessing all the IO and memory, where all the backdoors are suspected. Think of run-time patched CPU code to patch HW errors.
The other side of the coin that I experience in my circles is parents and people just don't care. Everyone I talk with about pretty much says the same thing along the lines of 'if they want to look at my diddly Doo this then they're most welcome too'.

A lot of people generally really don't care a hoot about this stuff.
Personally I think it's better to "do by example" with other open western democracies. And then when dealing with China etc rather than letting them roughshod over your financial and data economies because of principles or whatever, enforce the same rules upon them as they put upon you. Then there's an actual incentive and mechanism by which trade can open up in a fair manner. Our (speaking broadly about the west) current approach to China is madness.
I think the answer to your question is "gradually, by being reliable for decades". The contracts in question were signed in the seventies.

Germany's general foreign policy may be described as paying for things to achieve mutual dependance. Having Germany depend on Russa and Russia really depend on Germany would be a classic German move. Note that when Russia wanted to bypass Ukraine and Belarus, it somehow ended up building two pipelines to Germany, none to Italy, none to India and a remarkable small one to China. That second pipeline to Germany looks like a bit of a WTF if you ask me.
Gas makes sense as a reliable backup power generation if you are intent on building wind/solar. This is still a net positive since hopefully you dont need that much and its better than currently used coal/oil.

Ofcourse if you get your gas from a not so friendly imperialistic autocrat who decides to go full in on military territorial expansion and uses gas as a economic weapon you are screwed and need to do whatever you can and is necessary.
I'm just speculating, but it might be due to all the practice with writing promo packets...

I almost never feel refreshed after a nap. I feel good, but will stay for hours in a sleepy state.

I tried the coffee then sleep thing, shorter naps, etc. Meditation like "Non Sleep Deep Rest Yoga Nidra" works better, but most days I try to wake up instead... so: coffee, or loud music, or taking a walk.
There's no need to use cookies for this when they control the backend. They know you're accessing a file because their server had to authenticate you.
FWIW i also know zero Go but the first example made sense (though while i don't know Go, i do know it has multiple return values): the "m[key]" part returns two values which are assigned to the "_, ok" expression which represents a value to be ignored and an "ok" variable which is later used in the "; ok" part (i guess ; separates multiple subexpressions similar to C's "," and the overall expression's value is the last subexpression) and so the two values returned from "m[key]" are the map's value and a boolean (or something that can be used like that) that checks if the value was found. In which case "if _,ok := m[key] {" would be the same as something like "if m.contains(key) {".

Of course this is all guesswork based on similar stuff i've seen elsewhere, so i might be off, but i think despite not knowing the language it still looks readable if you know any other mainstream language (and exercise some guesswork/imagination :-P).
Assembly obfuscates the implementation with memory allocation, garbage collection, etc. which is often worse than even 'the wrong' (i.e. legacy) abstractions in a high level language.

Mostly! Sorry, typical Hacker News "well, actually" comment coming up...

For lower stages, you can inject water into the nozzle and ISP (exhaust velocity) goes down, but thrust goes up, more than compensating for the weight of the water tanks.

But you wouldn't want to do that for an upper stage, as all the rocket below that would need to carry the water tank to a higher velocity.

Saturn V second stage had variable mixture ratio, using a leaner mixture with lower ISP (but better density and thrust) at lower altitude and richer mixture with higher ISP at higher altitudes. https://yarchive.net/space/launchers/saturn_variable_mixture...

So, ISP is clearly not everything. At low altitudes, you're looking at basically maximum thrust and thrust to weight. At some level you're also looking at volume and thus density, to minimize cost.
