It obviously depends on how you've implemented the feature, but there are a lot of cpmparitive benchmarks if you bother to put "go vs JS Performance benchmark" into the search bar and press enter.
The language itself doesn't make code performance however, so you'll have good and bad implementations in any language you go with.

I.e. specifically regex, which is highly relevant in searching through strings:
https://github.com/mariomka/regex-benchmark

And the always interesting techempower Project, which leaves the implementation to participants of each round. https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r21&tes...

Choose whatever category you wish there, js is faster then go in almost all categories there.

Even though I said it before, I'm going to repeat myself as I expect you to ignore my previous message: the language doesn't make any implementation fast or slow. You can have a well performing search engine in go and JS. The performance difference will most likely not be caused by the language with these two choices. And the same will apply with C/Rust. The language won't make the engine performant and creating a maximally performant search engine is hard. But a theoretically perfect implementation would likely be fastest in C/Rust, followed by the usual suspects such as Go/Java/C#/JS and finally ending with all other interpreted languages such as ruby and python
Diehl is still listed as the Director and CTO of Adjoint UK Ltd[1] which "started out as an enterprise blockchain company that later pivoted to a small business lending platform"[2], making them a direct competitor to blockchain-based lending platforms. Adjoint is still filing its account statements as of Feb 2022[3]. Based on that, it appears the company owes £2.1M to creditors but only has £3,868 cash and ~£257K falling due from debtors, so the company seems to be £1.89M in debt.

Maybe Diehl refuses to talk about Adjoint and his own uses of blockchain based technology because of some legal agreement with the parent company. Or, maybe because he is the Director and CTO of a lending business that is struggling financially, and in reality is not much different than Celsius and Voyager that he is publicly criticizing and competing against.

A more tinfoil-hat theory is that Adjoint Inc has become heavily dependent on R&D tax credits as they make up the majority of the amounts owed to the company on the latest balance sheet. Maybe Diehl does not want to admit that his company is receiving tax benefits from the public blockchain research by privately regurgitating the same R&D for enterprise fintech.

Or there may also be a more reasonable explanation, that Diehl could clarify by just speaking out about it.

I am using Audacious every day on a Gentoo Linux (I can only assume it's a fairly recent version) and it still has a choice old-school 'skinned' UI mode that loads classic xmms skins (that can make it look just like old Winamp) and there's double-pixel mode too so it's not as tiny on modern desktops.. it's probably not for everyone but I love it!
What do you mean “you own your newsletter”?

Your newsletter is owned by a massive corporate platform such as Mailchipm, which will ban you for wrongthink/wrongspeak just like other massive corporate platforms like Facebook.

Just the first news story I found: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1017221 - keep in mind that “antivaxxer” doesn’t mean what it used to mean but could simply mean you’re pointing out that vaccines aren’t 100% safe or 100% effective which is absolutely true but was considered fake news by mainstream propaganda a year or so ago. Besides the point but I expect I’ll get some replies so just noting preemptively.
Obviously, "using renewables to produce hydrogen" means hydrolysis, i.e. use the electricity generated to split water and release hydrogen, which can then be indefinitely stored. Note also comment about using ammonia for storage and transport.

I'm thinking a key metric is the efficiency of it all.
> Copper is used for heavy-gauge electrical wire. For many of these applications, aluminum is much less expensive and arguable superior (it’s lighter and more flexible).

Superior in what way? Being lighter / more flexible? Did you account for the fact you have to upsize aluminum to carry the same amperage load as copper? When comparing Apples to Apples (Err.. Aluminum to Copper) on say a 200A service entrance cable, the difference in weight / flexibility isn’t much based on personal experience, but there are other negatives to using aluminum over copper for SER cable. One example, voltage drop over 50ft isn’t as much an issue with copper.
Unfortunately, there is no real objective agreement on Politifact's impartiality either.

Impartiality generally seems to be a very difficult subject.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PolitiFact#Allegations_of_poli...

PolitiFact was three times as likely to rank statements from Republicans as “Pants on Fire,” and twice as likely to rank statements from Democrats as “Entirely True.”
The rapid progress of the Asahi Linux team is very impressive, but there is no need to exaggerate.

There have always been plenty of laptops with very good Linux support.

Of the 3 laptops that I had during the last 15 years (before those I had used an Apple laptop, but then I have switched to Linux), on the first (a HP Compaq) and on the third (a Dell Precision), when I have installed Linux it just worked, while on the second (a Lenovo), I had to spend a couple of days until making everything work, mainly because it used NVIDIA Optimus, which required some workarounds, but after that it worked flawlessly. During these years I have also used Linux on various company laptops, always without problems.

At least some months might have to pass until a MacBook will be able to work under Asahi Linux as well as most laptops with Intel/AMD CPUs work already in the day when they are bought.
I guess you've demonstrated his "irritatingly pedantic people" point.

Was that intentional? If so, well done!
That's one way of doing it, not the only way, and only tangentially related ('it can be useful to' sort of relationship) to open source.
I.e. by an unelected foreigner who asserts dominance through custom and tradition.

I don’t know how long such arrangements can persevere, but it’d be delightful if they didn’t survive past Lizzie and Charlie.

I mean, it’s the 21st century. If we have no gods, then why do we still have masters?

Ontologically speaking, sovereignty in a secular nation can have no metaphysical assertions (“divine right to rule”), so there can be no legitimate claims of primacy over other humans.

But this is well known. Perhaps it’s the invisible and inactive nature of British monarchy that permits it to survive: they do next no nothing publicly, so they don’t step on toes.
I worked for the company that made the Vetrex in the mid 90's. By that time they'd become the company for bowling and similar physics based games. Jay Smith, owner of the company, wrote all the physics sims himself, in Excel, which we the programmers translated to C.
It definitely was not bad ... but compared to the first it was a bit off.
There are a lot of pump storage plants with various forms of storage mechanisms. Renewables are part of the general energy mix so of course these storage plants also store energy from renewables. In Switzerland and Austria it has become a business because of the overproduction of Germany. Given, they have the matching topography that make them easier to build, but you won't necessarily need that.

Hydroelectric power and pumped storage have synergies, they aren't competing.

Stored power isn't overcapacity. Investors care about expensive energy and renewables are the cheapest and cleanest option.
Sorting the definitions by length is a nice touch. What's with the different 'editions'? I thought that they were grouped by perhaps subject or book, but can't figure out what for instance WRITHEN SHINE EDITION exactly represents.
Dell, one of the largest manufacturers of laptops supports Linux and OSS. It's not some red headed step child anymore.
That is totally possible though. Plenty of people know metal working and can make tools such as knives. It's not as efficient as industrial mass production but it's possible.

Coal producers love every nuke project: that represents a solid decade more sales, vs. wind or solar that would start displacing coal immediately, several times as much in the end for the same investment, and then radically less opex.
I think what they're trying to say (with some artistic depiction from my side), is that Docker, which is much more intuitive and easy to use, which "does one thing and does it well", is ultimately superior to Nix in the containers space, even with the minimal advantages that Nix has over Docker. Especially for large-scale production scenarios, where in those cases, k8s is used more commonly with Docker.
You're conflating the medium (newsletter) with its distribution mechanism (mass mailing). If you have the content and the destination addresses, it's trivial to switch to another provider.
I'm not sure whether this is an argument for or against Asahi. The "50 other people in the world" statement is hardly true for a machine offered with a single SoC and zero customization options except RAM size and SSD.
> The obvious place for this is blocking cloud providers from accessing personal data. For example, it could be used to resolve concerns about using US based services from Europe, because any data uploaded to such a service can be encrypted such that it's only processed in a certain way (this is what RA does).

This will not work because the concerns about US based services are legal ones due to access requirements by the US government which cannot be solved by technical restrictions while still complying with those requirements.
> I'm pretty sure that 999 out of 1000 people reading your previous comment heard something like "PolitiFact said this claim about a possible recession was false, even though it used a dictionary definition of the term!"

I understood GP to mean that it's a bit strange to have random groups define fake news or not based on deviations from a specific dictionary. If my dictionary says recession is two quarters, and yours says it's three, we can't use just this to decide that something is fake news, and it's especially dangerous to make arbitrary decision on which dictionary is actually 'not fake'.

I guess I'm the 1 / 1000 and actually have trouble understanding your arguments.
In regard to proprietary hardware, it is my assertion that Apple and Amazon are essentially making the same move: throw money they obtained by dominating their respective markets into closed hardware development that will allow them to lock into their market dominance in the future by limiting consumer choice. You might disagree but there is nothing fallacious about this line of reasoning.

If you are looking for a fallacy take your argument from authority: if Linus does something then it cannot possibly be wrong. Which doesn't even get the point I'm making above, where I clearly contrast developing FOSS for the MacBook which is clearly a good thing (what Linus is doing), with buying a development MacBook for convenience, thereby putting your money to work against software liberty.
For simple group exercises and labs in Matlab, it probably won’t really be complicated/big enough to need it, frankly.

You might get a few starter files and have to tweak some pieces. Unless your project is more than like a few weeks long just do it together in study sessions and pair program if you can.

When you write your own work, solo labs, thesis, dissertation etc, then absolutely use vcs, obviously.

I did mechanical engineering in undergrad and the labs were fairly self contained and didn’t really need much revision.

If anything I would prioritise writing tests to help document and check others code, over worrying about vcs. TDD in Matlab would be quite a thing.

High corporate profits?

PC component manufacturers offer Linux drivers for their hardware, sometimes it's binary blobs, etc. but at least there's some effort there. And companies like Intel and AMD are paying engineers to maintain it. For example AMD and Intel both have open source Linux GPU drivers available. Does Apple even have specifications for their GPU available ?
You don't need any of it. It's included in the framework if you want to make your docs more interactive but you can stick to plain text in markdown (like most of these frameworks).

> Australia has secret prisons, and a star court for the things it doesn't want the world to know. Witness J, K, L, M, &etc.

So does america. I'm not sure how a republic movement could save australia from having these things when one of the largest republics in the world also has, e.g. hundreds of thousands of censored warcrimes on wikileaks and guantanamo bay

Ask HN: Why developers hate marketing so much?
I wish it was 60 fps though. At some point the footage was probably deinterlaced by discarding every other field. (Also, YouTube would not show it as 60 fps anyways as the resolution must be upscaled to at least 720p for the 60 fps option to be available.)

I understand this is very typical with online video. I wish it wasn't though.
Facebook flagged my "Whiskey Vending Machine" meme pic the other day. Someone's 1940's stunt but FB figured it was too controversial to show now, "whiskey vending machines didn't really exist."

Glad they cleared that up; wouldn't want a funny historical photo inspiring people to set up copies of that vending machine everywhere?

If you google passwordless, biometric solutions are one way to go, hence I mentioned them, not because I wad trying to put it into your mouth.

If someone has access to my password they either got it by torture, a non or insufficient hashed store on the other end or by breaking encryption.

A simple dongle that may not even need a password, is easier to get.

2FA can make sense, passwordless does not.

The risk of 3rd party screwing up, doesn't go away, it's just shifted to another 3rd party, which again, you have to trust.

I use a different email address with a unique password for anything that's important and where another person having access could harm me. Forums and such are not a part of that.

So let's agree to disagree. I'll stay with passwords for everything that's important and for most things that are really important, apart from banking that is, I don't even have a 3rd party involved.
Yes we use them, for example Sitecore uses Windows Containers, and Docker Desktop does rely on WSL being there no matter what.
This is very cool, there's definitely a need for something that sits between the completely no-code tools and a completely DIY approach.

Your submission-based pricing is also very approachable to small-volume forms -- the industry standard is about a $25-35 minimum monthly, and even though there's often a free tier it usually includes a small subset of features.

One thing that's a blocker for me at the moment is that I can't seem to add text besides the field name to a field in the no-code tool. It's useful for providing instructions on the field, but I don't see a way to do it.

Overall this feels pretty polished, I'm impressed.
Sure, you might get kicked off a newsletter provider platform. It's a risk.

But you have far far more options to take your subscriber list and go to a different provider (substack, tinyletter) or even build your own solution using something like mailgun or AWS SES. (Yes, that latter option would be quite a bit of work, but if you had, say, 20k email subscribers, it might be worth it.)

If you get kicked off twitter or facebook or even a place like HN or Lobste.rs, you have exactly zero ability to export the contact info of people who knew you and want to continue to hear from you.
Other providers can still ban you.

Switching providers sometimes requires all existing subscribers to “opt in” again.

Regardless you’re still owned by a platform. Gmail ain’t gonna let you deliver 1000s of emails yourself.

>So many blogs promote their newsletter, [...] What is the rationale behind it?

A website (and also RSS) -- that is not hard paywalled with account login -- is a "pull" by anonymous webbrowser clients. The website's content creator doesn't have a direct relationship with readers because you'd only have web browser IP addresses or aggregate statistics with Google Analytics, etc.

In contrast, newsletters can be "push" by content creators because you have collected email addresses that want the newsletters and therefore have a more direct relationship with readers. Building the audience via email addresses is valuable because it works outside centralized platforms like Youtube, Patreon, etc.

And what's more, the second unofficial motto of the Linux kernel is "break kernel space"; they don't make any attempt at keeping in-kernel APIs stable. So if they followed semver for userspace, they'd be on 1.9000.0, if they followed semver for kernel space they'd be on 9000.0.0.

Apple doing some minimal work to support their own hardware with Linux might bring them some new business. And it sounds like it shouldn't even be that much work. Mainly just documenting their hardware would be good enough to bootstrap that.

For developers, macs are just really nice hardware and there are not a whole lot of similarly nice, Linux friendly laptops out there. Most of them seem to be compromises between being noisy, not having great screens, keyboards, and touchpads, mediocre performance, etc.

Typing this on a Samsung Galaxy Book with a meh screen, meh touch pad, alright keyboard, and unimpressive performance. It runs Manjaro. I do miss having a nice screen and input options. I'm actually using a wireless mouse for the first time in a decade plus. Never needed one with a mac.

They are not "literally batteries on wheels", because their charge is used up by the car itself, not by the grid. They take energy out of the grid, and never put it back in.

Sure there are some ideas that EVs which don't see too much use could be used to discharge back into the grid, but that is hard to organize and destroys the battery much more quickly.
I think a lot of governments are keen for this not to happen.

For nuclear powers, a civilian nuclear industry is a strategic asset that sharply brings down the cost of maintaining nuclear weapons/subs/carriers. This is partly through skills exchange and partly due to the presence of a shared industrial ecosystem.

For certain non nuclear powers (sweden, iran, south korea) an overpriced civvie nuclear industry is kind of like buying an option on quickly becoming a nuclear power which theyd like to keep in case of geopolitical emergency.

Countries that dont see a necessity for MAD and arent nuclear powers almost universally cant be bothered with the expense and will just build something else.

This is why the nuclear industry/the US government are so keen to coopt the green movement to support throwing more subsidies after nuclear plants in the name of solving global warming. Also why theyre so keen to foment a split between the traditionally united antinuclear and green groups.
They do work to some extent (which is greater than zero). I have a newsletter to share links related to Python, Linux, Regular Expressions, Vim, etc. 38 issues later, I have close to 500 subscribers (I don't do pop-ups, but thanks for the reminder - I should at least add them in the footer of my blog posts, been promoting mostly to my readers on Gumroad/Twitter).

Based on Gumroad stats, open rates are above 40%. I send 10-15 links per week, and the total link clicks average around 150 (not sure if adblockers affect such stats). I try to optimize links to share based on interest shown in topics so far.

And as others have commented, one of the reasons to start a newsletter is to have your own platform for sharing content.
For a power user, vivado is streets ahead of the open source alternatives. The integrated IDE makes working with and debugging performance issues helpful as you can cross probe between placement, elaborate RTL, timing reports all the way back to the source RTL. Also things like pynq are amazing, blending python, with user defined hardware blocks.
I didn't say that the "Go way" was bad; just that there are few similarities. Certain things you can do in Oberon you cannot do in Go and vice versa. Personally I prefer Oberon+ over both Go and previous Oberons; if I didn't need to maintain backward compatibility with Oberon/-2/-07 I would remove type inclusion from Oberon+ and require explicit casts like Go; Wirth also removed type inclusion from Oberon-07, but he (unfortunately) also removed all numeric types but INTEGER, REAL and BYTE (but left some unfortunate implicit casts).
A long, easy to remember, but hard go guess password, that is securely hashed on the other end, is an even better solution, that is proven and battle tested.
So the only disadvantage of Nix is the learning curve? I'll take it! I wouldn't call the advantages minimal though, it's quite clearly demonstrated that the implications for supply chain security are massive to say the least. Blindly following what people are "commmonly using" won't get you anywhere good either.
