The bizarre situation in the UK is that most companies will not post a salary on their job ads, but recruitment firms, advertising the same role, will post a salary.

This means I will always go for the ad with a salary and the company will have to pay the recruiter their finder's fee.

That's not an issue unique to one side of the conflict though. The DUP are hardly moderates, and were always suspected to have links to the UVF.

One of the saddest parts about the post Good Friday/Belfast settlement was how it ended up with the more extreme parts of each community splitting power between them.

I think the existing support more like "function overloading" in C++ - you make some subroutine/function name which calls the appropriate subroutine/function with the correct argument types.

Unfortunately the existing support isn't like proper generics. In my Fortran code I use C macros (#include) to avoid repeating big blocks of generic code for each data type. For example, I needed to do this for a sort routine which could act on different data types. This is very clumsy, so any proper generics will be welcome. Hopefully there will be a STL-like library which could be based around these generics.
No it isn't. I already agreed that PoW is burning up the planet especially with the uselessness of blockchains like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Dogecoin, that don't improve on the current system when used and thus have no use case. So that isn't 'whataboutism'.

Nice try though.

IBM, Sony, and Toshiba worked together to develop STI, the architecture behind the Cell and PS3. What was really unique about the Cell was two things: it was the first dual-core processor machine, and it had 8 specialized streamlined cores as well: the SPEs (Synergistic Processing Elements).

Michael Van de Luur of Gorilla Games said in an interview [1] “Even desktop chips nowadays, the fastest Intel stuff you can buy, is not by far as powerful as the Cell CPU, but it’s very difficult to get power out of the Cell. I think it was ahead of its age, because it was a little bit more like how GPUs work nowadays, but it was maybe not balanced nicely and it was too hard to use. It overshot a little bit in power and undershot in usability, but it was definitely visionary.”

The window in my office room at home is east/north with my desk already on south wall - I need to pull down the blinders to be able to work at all in the morning just from reflection from a white wall next to the window, and as my living room is next to this room we have meh light at best in the afternoon, especially in winter.

So I can't really agree on it being well-lit, despite having actual windows on two sides of the apartment. Not to the point of complaining, but if only your kitchen (small, no table) and bedroom are on the west and you live in the northern hemispher... let's just say from a lighting perspective I've had 2 better apartments before this.

The what if game works the other way around too. The Third Reich spent a lot of rethorical attention on environmentalism that soon became a less pressing concern. Under different circumstances however one might imagine that they would have tried to make the 1000-year Reich a reality, and nature conservancy and curbing pollution would have been a fit ideologically. But priorities tend to change, and the lack of individualism is not a guarantee against hypercapitalism.

Nuclear weapons were inevitable, they are trivial inventions.

Nobody would have fought over climate policy a 100 years ago. Climate change barely received any publicity before James Hansen's testimony in 1988.

I think you can learn as you go with tech. It depends on where you start. If you are a humble hobbyist with a few projects under his belt then a junior position isn’t too far out of reach.

As long as you pace yourself and are open to learn you can become a senior developer.

I think you're overestimating how tight a border can be while still allowing movement. Even when we had 14 day police enforced mandatory quarantine and no international travel, cases still got through from returning Australians. There is also all the staff at the interface, cleaners, hotel staff, security, airport staff, screeners, it was not a foolproof system. With that in mind, it was only a matter of time. The only reason it didn't spread as fast in spite of that leaky interface, was because of the lock downs.

Even in spite of those knockdowns it spread, and in spite of high vaccination rates it spread. It's not a solveable problem, citizens would not (did not) accept the terms necessary to be covid zero forever, so why delay it once everyone is vaccinated?

I was on team Covid Zero to begin with, but it was never meant to be a long term strategy. You can't exile a whole country while the rest of the world moves on and expect people to accept that.

I tried writing a reply to this but its kind of hard to talk about the nuance here around intent etc when at the end of the day dead kids are dead kids. I don’t think anyone rightly gives a damn about if that was the intent or not and I’m certainly not here to try and justify it. The entire thing is completely unacceptable in every sense of the word.

> he's father was sidelined and others took credit for what essentially transformed China.

Yeah it was probably easy to see Xi as just another party leader but this back story shows how he sees himself as both coming from and representing the very best that China has to offer and a bunch of his friends are very comfortable with such a singular strong man elitist taking over.

He’s got the credentials for such a thing.

It’s just too bad he went ‘redder than red’ in the critical years his father was in jail. But I guess his success was partly because he wasn’t a Deng Xiaoping acolyte that grew up being pro-West.

That's a Nonargument https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nonargument .

Giving examples of technologies that can also be considered "a waste of energy" is a valid argument. Why is using energy playing graphics intensive games with high-end graphics cards not considered a "waste of energy"? It's a value judgment that lacks perspective. Dismissing some technology for its energy usage without providing a better alternative with similar or better properties is nescient.

Some people at least try to provide "alternatives", but they don't have better properties or completely ignore what the technology was even trying to accomplish.

We just need to tighten what would be reasonable standard for middlemen to assure copyright is not violated.

There have been times when I created a sequence of three or four separate commits within under half an hour.

This was on projects where test coverage is tricky (think hardware interfaces) and keeping changes small was motivated a lot by better bisectability.

Clearly, software development is a pretty broad field with lots of different experiences.
>All they need to do is make their phone app a bit more usable and no one would need the kiosks.

No, please. Assuming everyone can and will use apps is a terrible idea. Apps are terrible for accessibility

- People who don't have phones

- People who do have a phone, but it can't install your app

- People who didn't bring their phones

- People who brought their phone, but it's out of batteries

- People who brought their phone, but it can't connect to the internet

- People who are not tech savvy enough to install/use apps

- People who can't use your app for disability related reasons

- People who don't want to use your apps out of some principle

- People who might be able to use your app, but it is just so tedious that the extra friction makes them not want to

None of these are small groups. Relying on app usage is business suicide

Ask HN: Learning the Basics of Astronomy
Since I finished my PhD and left the university, I have been trying to learn new subjects besides work, whenever wife and child leave a few hours of free time per week. I have always been interested in anything to do with planets, stars, etc. The new pictures of black holes and the James Webb telescope have put me under a new spell. So I decided to invest some time in learning the basics of astronomy over the next 12 months.

What resources can you recommend to move from the typical general education with a bit of basic physics to a better understanding of the basic principles of astronomy?
I think the point was not against LLVM itself, but rather against languages for which only a single implementation is available, which is a pretty strong argument IMHO.

Tbh this sounds like a nitpick. Prohibition does not have a 100% success rate, to state the obvious. But you really can’t compare a religion where its leader literally orders its members to forcibly convert others, to one where its law forbids it.
The trains experience would be something children would voluntarily spend a few hours on occasionally. Farm life would be a daily responsibility that children would have no option of walking away from. I anticipate that children running a train could be very immersed in the moment, but the goal of the activity was to instill a sense of responsibility, and I'm wondering how effective that transitory experience would be.
Elon Musk denies reported affair with wife of Google co-founder
I think many would be interested in what kind of surveillance hardware and software the kiosks have. It should also be easier to determine what is being sent over the net to some end point than getting encrypted payment details.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a camera with video, microphone or at least photographs of customers. Indeed, grocery kiosks have these in the UK, some actually show you the video feed on the monitor in front of you to install fear to deter shoplifting.

Where this data goes and what the company uses the data for, we don't know.

“I consulted a magic box and arrived at the answer” is precisely the kind of paper that is an example of search, and not research. I mean, they plainly stated that’s what they’ve done.

How would you go about redoing exactly what Lander and Parkin did? You can’t because they don’t really say. Isn’t this whole thread about a lack of reproducible studies resulting in fraud?

But anyway, I like what you’re doing here because you’re beginning to document why the modern peer review system was developed in the first place in the 70s. Sounds like a good topic for a research paper.
You might not be able skim card details, but you could probably get the terminal to issue unexpected transactions.

The most interesting transaction would be a very large refund. I’ve seen organised crime groups target restaurants in the past to issue themselves £1k+ refunds. They pretend to pay for meal, and while they have the EMV terminal in their hand, they cancel the original transaction, put the device into management mode (using default passwords) and issue themselves a nice large refund.

It’s a complete pain in the arse for the banks receiving these refunds to catch and deal with properly. It’s surprisingly hard to return the money to the restaurant.

A normal unprivileged app cannot create RAM disks easily on any OS as far as I know ; also it wouldn't really work on e.g. WASM

That's fine for me - although I don't see a particular difference between either, a filesystem is just a system to access files, whatever that means

I have configured my browser to go to news.ycombinator.com when I type "hn" in its URL bar. The domain name could be anything even a b32 hash I wouldn't mind, I would still just type "hn".

Granted, most people do not bother using this feature, but it is also true that most non-technical people don't even bother with typing a URL, they use a search engine as a proxy anyway.

In fact it would be a good idea, ecologically, to have a system that educate its users to give their own nickname to website they visit often and use them rather than performing a search query. Especially if it is as simple as clicking a "bookmark as 'xxxxx'" with xxxxx being the default name of the service/website in your browser, with a TOFU principle :).
> When the plants were planned and designed no-one imagined that summer temps of +40C were going to be usual.

More problematically this lack of imagination was then used to save cost by not building cooling towers: the plants with such issues are generally those next to large rivers for which it was assumed the river flow and temperature would always be sufficient, so the expense and visibility of cooling towers could be done away with.
Putting up with the demands may be the easy way out for the individual in cases like these but I am thankful that there are people like the OP who stand up against it so that we hopefully won't have to put up with worse shit in the future. Abuse only ever stops when there is pushback.

> Now, to the awful things that happened: Do I think that members of the RUC who killed civilians should have ended up in jail? of course. But I think the same thing about members of the IRA.

agreed, but it cannot come at the cost of peace. I personally dislike the fact that civilian killers are in parliament. But if that means we can have lasting peace, that is a price that must be paid.

if we take the example of germany after the war, there were committed nazis in power for many many years after 1945. However Germany is not a country riven by nazis anymore (excluding AFD)

It seems like this is just measuring a single pass at reading a file with about 100k words in it. I ran the benchmark and it finished almost instantly.
