The article you linked argues for a change in the way multiplication is explained to children, not the way it is defined.

> Telling students falsehoods on the assumption that they can be corrected later is rarely a good idea. And telling them that multiplication is repeated addition definitely requires undoing later.

I disagree. Understanding multiplication as repeated addition has always been an invaluable intuition, especially in the beginning, where explicit calculations are important. The biggest hurdle when introducing multiplication is getting them to understand the multiplication table. The fact that it is defined as a separate operation in the definition of ring/field is almost irrelevant in the pedagogical context, just as we don't start teaching real numbers with Dedekind cuts.
We don't need to replace trust with complete submission to a third party. Just build trust. Game servers don't need to be a single festering pool of every user who purchased the title. You can just play games with a community that has accountability.

It's like putting a camera network and automated tranq drones in every playground so kids don't play tag 'wrong'.

This insanity of trying to conflate complete submission to a third party with trust or security when in reality it provides neither because that party is an adversary is a society-wide mental illness.

Clojure libraries are good but you have Java and JS interop for mundane, everyday libraries. Is there anything wrong with interop?

I think most Clojure libraries rightfully focus on things that either only possible or needed in Clojure. Things like core async, typed clojure are not even possible to implement in other languages as libraries.

When thinking of examples: the cognitect/aws-api is amazing in it's ease and fun, yet AWS Java SDK is also easy to use from clojure. I prefer the former, but there isn't anything wrong with the latter.

The only notification I've been getting in the last 2+ years is calls. As for everything else, I just open the app/program when I want to check what's there. It means I check my messages when I have a moment free, not when my phone demands it. If anything is urgent then someone can call me.

> These are people who, mostly, never had a chance. This is the key point. They were dealt a truly garbage hand in life

Have you talked to any of them? Most of the ones I've talked to don't want anything to do with work. Yes, work on its own is not enough to rejoin society. But work is a prerequisite for rejoining society. It is necessary but not sufficient. If you don't want to work you cannot rejoin society.

At some point you need to assert some tough love and force them to do things they don't want to do. Like work. Or not drink/do drugs.
Growing up I never learned what science, technology and math formulas and equations really are.

Happiness is too fleeting to be the goal.

It depends on such small things it can change hour by hour and it's entirely based by my perception.

I can't plan if I'll be sick or if my partner will dump me or anything else that may upset me.

Happiness shouldn't be the goal, it should be something we strive for, despite of the negative in our life.

I can try to achieve some form of success (professional, monetary, social) and that will increase the chance that my life won't fall apart.

From experience that's not enough to be happy all the time. I felt the most miserable right after achieving great results and relaxing. Keeping myself busy (with work or family) is what makes it easier to be happy.

I don't think the alternative should be an hedonistic plan on how to be happy (eg. schedule a meditation session everyday or pamper yourself, eat your favourite food, get in bed with tons of people); still aim at greatness, live your life like you wanted it to read it if it was a book - and try to see good in everything to be happen in fortune and misfortune.

> RC limits itself to modifying only relevant objects, whereas GC reads all objects in a super cache-unfriendly way. Yes, an atomic read-modify-write is worse than a read, but it's not worse than a linked-list traversal of all of memory all the time.

All tracing GC algorithms scan only live memory, and they typically do so in an array-like scan (writing some bits in the object header when a pointer to that object is discovered), not in linked-list order.

It is a fundamental question of the nature of man. People are fundamentally evil and need to be thought to do good. Religions including Christianity have a way to address that but what is a secular society's way to address this?

If you disagree with this please let me know why. Most people are raised to believe they are fundamentally good which causes a lot of harm and suffering. Challenging that preconception and learning to do good is the best way to defeat evil and let justice and equality prevail for all in my opinion.
My 21kw $52k system with a 26% federal tax credit costs me $270/month pre tax credit ($178/month after applying the tax credit to the principal), financed at 3.9% for 25 years (inflate that debt away!). There is a bill in Congress to restore the tax credit to 30% retroactive to the first of the year, and extending it 10 years further, possibly improving the economics if passed.

It was cheaper than my average utility bill, and my electrical rates will never go up as the cost of fossil gas burned by my utility rises. Any excess power I generate beyond what I consume my utility must cut me a check for at the end of year when we true up.

> Restore morality and revamp the idea of punishment to actually be a deterrent in the 21st century and these things will go away.

This would be much more effective if we start with crimes of educated, wealthier segments of the population. Starting the "Operation Restore Morality" with the poorest sections of the public is where things come off as hollow.

>Maybe it’s not the achieving stuff that makes us happy, but rather the act of chasing after achievements.

It's called happiness, like happening. If nothing happens or can happen, how can people be happy?

People do optimize happiness by making money, because then, anything can happen. The problem is that they buy products, where things are already done, instead of buying the tools to get it done by themselves, or better, get it done with their friends.

Even with net metering and all you have is solar, it still does matter when you use grid power. California peak rates are 3 PM to midnight, and you’re not getting any offset when the sun is down and then you’re conscious about peak rates.

The calculus only changes when you have solar production + battery storage. Then you have freedom.

I case it helps, this is how it was taught to me when introducing proofs.

For your example case, it's simply the matter of seeing multiplication as repeated addition. So, 2x is x+x, and from this follows:

2(x+y) = (x+y)+(x+y) = x+y+x+y = x+x+y+y = 2x+2y

However, for the other case, when we convert the multiplication by 2 to an addition and back:

2(xy) = (xy)+(xy) = xy+xy = 2xy

Now we can show that this works for n instead of two:

n(x+y) = (x+y)+..[n times]..+(x+y) = x+..[n times]..+x + y+..[n times]..+y = nx+ny

And for multiplication:

n(xy) = xy+..[n times]..+xy = nxy

> We say "Pulumi is imperative" because it gives you the UX of an imperative language. Under the hood they do their own thing, but unless you're trying to have a really precise conversation it's usually easiest to stick to those terms.

I'd still take issue with that description. There is a massive UX distinction here that isn't under the hood.

Your imperative Pulumi code is at a meta/macro/preprocessor level. That's completely different from writing imperative code that manipulates your servers.

Your code generates declarations. It does not take actions.

Boiling that down to one word is likely not the best way of doing it, but I agree with the author that in this situation the function/output of what you write is more important than how it gets there. The stuff you write doesn't configure servers, it describes servers.
The OSI model is too complicated. I learned about it in the CCNA course. That's why it continues to exist as a mere model.
I’m not asserting that terraform is declarative, or that pulumi and terraform are technically different.

I’m saying, this article is about the pedantic definition of what it means to be declarative vs imperative.

…and pedantically, if you’re partially imperative, you’re imperative.

Otherwise, you’re choosing to redefine the terms to suit your convenience.

Which you’re welcome to do too… but you can’t pedantically tell people they don’t know what a term means and redefine it to mean something convenient.
I miss the 3D web. In the late 90's Silicon Graphics machines came with an out of the box experience delivered by Netscape Navigator. The page was rendered in frames, so you only downloaded the navigation frames once, not with every click.

Some of this navigation and some of this content was in VRML that you could interact with. The full product tour could be explored in a 3D world. The UI UX did not seem OTT. It felt like the future.

It turned out that the excellent CosmoWorlds VRML authorship tools were just a little bit ahead of their time and there was little of the expected interest. We ended up with a flat 2D web rather than a 3D web. Sure this makes sense but the tools you have available frame how you solve problems.

Also out the box was a web server. You put HTML (and VRML) in your shared web folder and your machine instantly had your stuff available on the local network and you could route to the machine from the internet if you had the networking skills to set that up.

It was all in the original Tim Berners Lee vision, you could imagine how this would make sense in academia, with academics in a department able to put all their work/knowledge on the web very easily.

In this SGI version of the 3D web it was the javascript that glued it all together, VRML was made useful with scripting which could go across those frames to put together an awesome web experience, rose tinted spectacles accepted.

We aren't even thinking along those lines these days. The web has gone, we have platforms now.

He fails to mention that Apple added support for ref counting in silicon.

And.. often GC will be able to use area allocators, before falling back to "proper" GC allocation. Which will be a lot faster than ref counting everything.

And atomics can get very slow, I've had atmics show up regularly in the profiler.

For my project, the combination that works great so far:
unbox all types, use area allocators if the compiler can guarantee the value doesn't escape, use GC for data that changes often and ref counting for data that hardly ever changes. (luckily cycles are not possible)

I think the man needs a lesson in Jevon's Paradox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_paradox)

Simply put, if an increase in efficiency, ecologically in this case, leads to an increase in consumption then the end result isn't a decrease in energy usage but an increase. One of the reasons carbo-hydrogen consumption has barely fallen totally is because every time we make something more efficient we have the fantastic idea to use it for something other than substituting the old energy sources. Every solar panel put to use for something that isn't turning an old power plant off is slowing the energy transition. The people on HN who rightfully ask why our software is so slow despite our chips being so fast know Jevon's paradox by heart.

It's important to point out that this applies to the infrastructure needed for green energy itself, which is not green. Solar panels, batteries, concrete, steel, rare earths, the downside of that green energy the author blasts so abundantly through is some toxic mining pit in Africa.
> I think they should be given a choice: go to jail or get a job and 2 months of state funded housing

Can you elaborate on the "get a job" part? I don't think most employers would be lining up at the door to hire people who presumably have no recent work history but would either need to be paid enough to be able to afford bay area housing within two months or have to be fired after they're unable to show up to work due to being incarcerated. This just sounds like "throw them all in jail" but with extra steps to try to maintain the moral high ground.
Since the best we can hope for for an opinion is evidence based, experience based and from deductive reasoning, and new evidence and experience is always being uncovered (in science and elsewhere) let alone the amount of material a person has been exposed to, you can have a strong opinion but be willing to change your mind if you see new evidence.

Seems like a great deal to me. I get the benefits of solar and none of the cost or downside of energy storage.

I sometimes wonder if rooftop solar + fossil fuel generators is the future for electric micro grids in more remote areas. Probably cheaper than maintaining expensive distribution lines in fire prone areas.

You're assuming RC requires atomics. Just like GCs have been improving so have RCs. There are several designs for modern non-atomic RCs with various solutions for passing data between threads. It generally improves performance significantly better than atomic RCs, for the cache reasons you point out.

Though yes reference counting does increase the size of small objects. I find the performance edge depends on the use case. In some scenarios tracing GCs can be faster than non-atomic RCs, but sometimes they're slower. Sometimes I swap between the two just to see. Generally though RCs tend to use less RAM which can be very valuable.

I would argue that what matters is the observable behavior. In Python, regardless of how the actual cleanup is distributed between ARC and GC, the behavior that programmer sees is that all unused memory gets cleaned up eventually. So, it makes sense to group it with languages that provide the same guarantee.
