nice find. I wonder if machine learning can be used to reconstruct the language behind Linear A. Similar symbols should represent similar phonemes. we should be able to determine what language family we are dealing with, at least, and if the language is inflected.
Not sure where in CA you were looking, but I very rarely see anything like that in SF or the bay area (outside of weird enclaves like Atherton, but I wouldn't go there if you paid me). Courtyards, sure, but I think you're imagining a weird, nefarious spin to them when there isn't any.

I mean, if the customer doesn't complain, why would Doordash care?
You're right, I searched wrong in my 386 manual. So apparently they did call it virtual addressing.

I'm still not sure if I like calling that an "MMU". To me, an MMU acts on every memory access. But at the end of the day, who cares what I think what words mean. :)

The critical distinction to me is that segmentation is not much more than, effectively, an indexed addressing mode, where the base is the segment base that has been loaded into the descriptor cache when the segment register was loaded. Nothing happens at the time of actually accessing memory, except for the limit check.
That leads to the same question I asked in the other comment chain. If you think the costs of the US healthcare are caused by the market being too regulated, doesn't that imply that you think cheaper markets are freer markets? Would you say that almost all of our peer nations take a more free market approach to healthcare than the US?
That's something that aliases excel at.
I have no data, but it certainly seems like many of the crypto-partisan VCs have moved to Miami, which is probably the real network effect at play. (Cf. Wyoming has also bent over backward to welcome cryptocurrency folks, without the same fanfare.)
Personally I think they're the same - equally abhorrent, and people who act that way should be shunned from the industry entirely (there's a comment I made I think a week ago saying basically the same thing).

Legally though, racism == illegal discrimination while caste discrimination == legal discrimination.
Sure, I completely understand that. But a wise man once said:

> Of course, IMHO, the underlying anti-discrimination intent is to treat people based on their skills and abilities etc, not based on the circumstances of their birth, and discriminating based on caste is clearly not within that intent.

I think we agree and I appreciate the insight. I am just very against deceptive advertising, and the way people advocate for DEI policies seems very deceptive to me.
I think you've convinced me. It looks like the first 15 seasons are on netflix. Maybe I'll binge-watch it.

Sure, but they have their own FDA equivalent with their own regulations. Why are the regulations in the US more harmful than the regulations elsewhere?
I've worked in industry doing what I would consider "real ML" (i.e. shipping models that are core, revenue generating product features into production) for a decade at a range of companies from startups to fortune 500 companies and the part about needing a PhD is entirely nonsense (as is the majority of the content in this comment).

Maybe if you consider doing "real ML" exclusively working with Deep Mind or on Meta core research team, but there's a lot more to "real ML" than just these teams.

I'm curious how long you've been in industry and what types of orgs you've worked at to get this impression?

edit: In general the comments in this post are bizarrely out of touch with reality and have really shifted my perception of the avg HN commenter.
That was likely used as a selling point :/
If you are starting to learn front-end development today, you may question the choice of React.

Consider that a decade ago, people who were starting with the frontend were learning jQuery, which is almost irrelevant now.
> Good luck to Boom, but I am unconvinced this is a viable company and a viable business.

Same. I think their timelines are too aggressive. I want to be proved wrong though!
I wouldn't be surprised if they're leveraging federal funds for that, or at least for a big part of it.
It also requires periodic external validation of said meters per my understanding.
As a Data/ML Engineer, I cannot quite recommend this route: this role is unlikely to get you to a true ML role.

It will give you a ton of exposure to ML techniques and infrastructure practices, but the true modeling work is still done by PhDs with the prerequisite background/knowledge. You will be taking black boxes -- pre-built models -- and doing the data cleaning, fine-tuning, and experimentation.

I know a handful of people who transitioned to full-on ML from this role, but those individuals were quite gifted and hardworking, and probably could have learned without this exposure. There's a significant gap in knowledge that can only be attained through academic experience.
And again I learned something... Perceived elitism seems to be universal, unfortunately.
There is plenty of cheap housing in florida if you don't need waterfront, and depending on where you are coming from, possibly huge savings on state income tax, that may very well make your mortgage payments with the savings, or at a minimum offset it quite a bit.
No, it wouldn't, because that versatility can be attained by... not using the installer, the exact same as the situation without an installer.

An installer, if anything, improves "user centrality" because you're making it more accessible and usable to most users with just the most common few options.

Not having an installer improves "dev centrality" (the few users who matter are the devs and other advanced users), over and against user centrality.

You could use the same thinking to argue against having a package manager. You might have to install a package manually anyway, so why bother providing packages at all?
> You can even finance the construction with private-public partnerships tied to the specific project's success. And because people pay for this infrastructure, it discourages frivolous uses, like the induced demand of overbuilding in the exurbs.

This is a tangent, but I want to note the irony of listing this as a "pro": when the topic of public transport comes up on HN, a standard observation is that exactly this model failed and left local governments saddled with expensive, debt-laden streetcars and subways. The end result: we spent 50 years tearing up useful pieces of civic infrastructure because the root financing was fundamentally unsound.

Private financing schemes have an uncanny ability to sniff out the government's ability and willingness to catch the falling knife.
It’s possible that there are some issues here, but the fact that these comments talk about a wide variety of laptop models with completely different screens, form factors, manufacturing processes, etc, suggests that there may not be a systematic issue.

One model having the issue would suggest a manufacturing issue. However it’s unlikely that completely different models all exhibit the same issue in the same way.

More likely, screen damage is a common form of accidental damage, and anyone googling for support will find threads like this and pile on with their own experience despite no actual link.
I completely agree that right now, this is the right mindset. We need to reduce our footprints a lot until we are in better shape as a planet. However, I hope that one day we'll be able to travel as much as we want in a sustainable way. It is a great thing.
The problem is they draw cool water upstream from the river and dump the warm water downstream. There's a limit to how much warm water you can dump because it raises the overall temperature of the water which impacts aquatic life.

Extreme heat and a severe drought do two bad things:

1. Lowers the river level. This threatens to expose the intake pipes drawing in cool water. Those pipes must remain submerged for their pumps to work. They don't rest on the riverbed because they don't want to draw silt from the bottom of the river.

2. Raises the temperature of the water. Lower water levels mean the river has less thermal mass and so the hotter air is warming up the water that much more. That means the cooling water is hotter. This typically isn't a problem as far as cooling the plant itself is concerned but consider that To - Ti (temperature of output - temperature of intake) is constant, so if Ti increases then To must also increase, which as already noted impacts aquatic life. The water may simply be too warm.

Either (1) or (2) is problematic - the two together are a big problem and threaten to shut down the plant. This doesn't just apply to nuclear power units either - coal units, IGCC units and HSRG units face the same issue as do nuclear units. You're right though, this is a big problem getting very little attention. This is one of many reasons why utilities are investing so much into solar and wind - no cooling required.
It's not mutually exclusive. Tax money is being wasted left and right, people don't want to pay even more taxes to account for the incompetence that's happening.

Which particular ones? The DevEx auth stuff or the incentive fixing bit?

The ID model is probably where I'd start since it's what fixes spam/moderation problem in a way that can actually work without centralization. When IDs have a small, but non-zero cost spam becomes uneconomical and it's easy to block an ID. IDs also accrue pseudonymous reputation. From there you can start to fix a lot of the other stuff.

The DevEx bit also heavily depends on that. When you build the OS to handle IDs you move the abstraction up the stack. Modern operating systems don't do this in part because they were built before the web. As a result modern operating systems are largely just machines user's use to open a web browser and every centralized web application has to rebuild their entire auth stack and all of the collaboration tooling. They're incentivized to do this and be incompatible with everything else because centralization tends to lead to ad-driven business models and all the incentive problems associated with that.

If the OS handled IDs and collaboration you could just build your app, distribute it to the network and rely on built in OS libraries to do the complex work relying on guarantees from the OS itself. The users wouldn't need accounts on a bunch of centralized services.

People have tried to do this on the unix stack, but it fails for a few reasons[0][1]. It's not impossible to build something else that could work though and rethinking the stack from first principles leads to something that could work.

Imagine if all linux users could just dm each other because the OS itself handled encrypted communication between IDs. You could build and distribute linux apps without a mess of complexity just by publishing it to your node. You get the capability to build really collaborative applications out of the box because of a lot of these guarantees without having to give up control. There's a lot more possible than this in this model - I think it's a path to escape the local maximum we've been trapped in and get closer to the web the 90s cypherpunks imagined (and the personal computer hackers before them).

I don't think it's fair to just wave away such concerns. Automation lowers the number of people necessary to create something. This shrinkage of the available labor pool only happens faster with computer automation. The way the world currently works, this is a problem - people need jobs for money.

As entire classes of skilled labor evaporate, there will be significant societal implications. There is also the problem of the significant centralization of power and money that comes with a future where AI performs the work.
Could use some context on that page.
Did you consider Puerto Rico? They've got some awesome legal tax incentives.
This looks bad, but I assume that with time the price will recover. I mean, bitcoin will eventually reach the point where it doesn't recover ever again, but that point hasn't necessarily been reached yet.

> Would this be fraud?

It's hard to imagine. The restaurant clearly has no contractual relationship with Doordash. I don't know why they even bothered with the dough and boxes.
I think your comment is both wrong and spot on.

IMO the "wrong" part is that most heroin users will tell you they fucking love heroin. It makes them feel great/escape from life's problems, and users know this. The fact that users also know that heroin is destroying their lives isn't incompatible with loving it.

The "spot on" part of your comment is that the addictive dynamics between social media and heroin are basically exactly the same. And over the past 5-10 years as this awareness has grown (e.g. documentaries like The Social Dilemma), social media companies have paid lip service to acknowledging some of the dangers of "endless scrolling", but the rise of TikTok has proven that the lip service was always bullshit. The second another company came along with a stronger drug, all the incumbents are immediately trying to copy that addictive drug. They don't give 2 shits about your well-being and never did.
Oh, that's an excellent point. I've had people bring that up to me, as well.
Not even Android, according to the article. That's coming next year, now it's a proprietary Ford system.
The American Society of Civil Engineers rates Florida's infrastructure as a C. Compare that to California at a C-, New York at C, and America as a whole at C-.

https://infrastructurereportcard.org/state-by-state-infrastr...

They seem to be a lobby group for more infrastructure investment, but they don't see Florida as worse than other states.
You'd think there'd be a lot of pushback from incumbents in that space.
glibc and the file system update were both horrible updates in Arch.

The systemd transition was annoying as I liked Arch’s unit system but it was just an annoyance rather than breaking change.

Recently I ran into an issue were I had to revert to a LTS kernel because the main kernel hangs during boot each time (spent hours debugging and haven’t found the culprit. But the LTS kernel is working fine so I’m going to stick with that).
They are smart enough to buy insurance, perhaps :-)
> ... if Dev and Prod run differently, there's really no point to ...

"If dev and prod run differently" — Why is there an "if" here at all? Isn't it obvious to verify with two eyes in the real world? Is there any company in the world that runs production from somebody's laptop at home? Or distributes server racks for people to take home? It looks like an extremely disillusioned question out of touch with reality.

1. For development, engineers want to run a local throwaway mysql/redis. In production, engineer want to use a proper managed mysql/redis. The compose file, and envvars/links will be different. This is extremely normal, it makes sense.

2. Development laptops will always be underpowered than servers. The cpu/memory requirements will be different. Again makes sense.

3. For development, engineers will build and run the docker image locally. In production, these are separate, you would build and publish the image separately in CI, and run only published images in prod. Again, makes sense.

These are all perfectly logical things that make practical sense.

Trying to share/ reuse/ resemble is fine. But saying "dev===prod" is just a disillusion out of touch with reality.

Edit: For context, yes I do docker for a living for last 10 years, since v0.4 (lxc) days. I've been to and presented in meetups. If someone says they're trying to get dev as close functionally to prod, by doing X, Y, Z and sharing practical tips — you know you can listen to them. If someone says "dev===prod" and when you ask how they talk abstract principles, you quietly get out of there.
Almost, I run the Punkt MP02 (dumb phone). I don't feel isolated at all. Laptop works just fine for all my internet application needs. Voice calls and SMS work just fine for chat, coordination, or emergencies.
A PIN does not detach you from your provider, country and misery of having a cell phone, let alone a chain of possible points of SMS interception.
>How is this going to make it worse exactly?

If it's easily broken? By providing fake assurances.

>The systems involved already have to deal with uncertainty, doubt, potential fraud, etc.

Yes, and false assurances has already been an issue with all kinds of forensic processes, and led to numerous bad convictions (numerous that we know of, there are obviously more).

I'd rather have dgital photos "without any digital signing at all" in court, and the court treating them with uncertainty, doubt, potential fraud, etc, than a easy to beat signing system that gives even 10% extra unwarranted assurances to juries and judges....
I am very well aware of how segmentation works on the 286 and up. The critical difference I see to a paged MMU is that everything is determined "upfront": When you load the segment register with a selector, that causes the CPU to fetch the descriptor, and to load base and limit in the descriptor cache (the hidden portion of the segment registers, can be accessed with LOADALL). Every subsequent memory access to that segment is basically just an indexed addressing mode with that base as the index register.

In a paged MMU, it's more apt to say that it sits "between" CPU and memory. The frame in physical memory to be accessed is different for every page, and faults can happen while resolving that page. It happens during access, not upfront.

I concede that Intel already called this "virtual memory", I searched in my 386 manual wrong.
IMO the differ here is less about AI vs human curated, but curated/generated for a very broad audience vs one specific consumer, ideally live as their mood or interests change. We aren't there yet with the highly dynamic mood and interest changes (e.g. interest fading after 5 Dr pimple popper videos, let's throw in some wingsuit stuff), but it's on the same trajectory. Address broad audience -> address smaller, niche audiences -> address individuals -> address individuals in the moment
it seems like there is an "is xyz up" webpage, so someone jokingly created one for El Salvador , however meaning "up" as in their BTC holdings in US Dollar amounts
For this to be fraud someone would have to be defrauded.

Certainly the owner was not defrauded, nor anyone working with him to purchase the dough. Nor was Doordash defrauded: they offered to sell anyone pizzas for $16, and the owner took them up on the offer.
After a while I believe there were no more updates for Centos 7. What is impressive about this story is that I was able to drag it into the modern era with rocky linux 9 but it was a ... rocky transition. My biggest pain point was when the networking stack was broken and Yum refuses to do ANYTHING without loading sources from the network. I couldn't get around it without flash driving RPMs to the server..

The uptime of the machine was great on Centos, but it came to a point I was afraid to reboot because of the package changes that could apply.

edit: I think some software I was using was EOL'd just for Centos maybe also prompting the switch.
Replying since I can’t edit my other post. I didn’t downvote you, I just let you know that you were very likely wrong and that may have been the source of downvotes. I presumed it was a statement made in good faith and was going to be corrected in short order and it has.

It’s the original source of the mistake that should feel bad as they’re supposed to be experts in the field.

Also, proper High DPI support in both WinForms and WPF in .NET 5+. There is starting to be a very notable difference there between applications compiled on .NET Framework (or VB6) versus those recompiled for .NET 5+ WinForms/WPF with older apps not just looking dated, but sometimes aggravatingly unusable/inaccessible on modern monitors.
> Whether or not this is considered "grooming" is irrelevant.

It isn't irrelevant if people are using the word grooming to sensationalize the discussion and bias it towards being terrified of the 'trans epidemic/agenda'.

> if my child has the slightest suspicion that they, too, are one of the tiny percentage of intersex/trans people

That is not how any of this works. Someone doesn't go on puberty blockers or get Hormone Therapy because they have 'the slightest suspicion'. If you say to a Dr "I think I might be trans", they don't schedule you for any gender-affirming care. They'd refer you to a therapist so you can work through that (and no, the therapist isn't going to talk you INTO being trans, again, not how that works, far more likely to try to talk you OUT of being trans).

> And if that were the case, and I refused to recognize one of my child's weekly fantasies (he likes to pretend to be a cat, but we don't take _that_ seriously)

Pretending to be a cat and being trans are not comparable.

I would hope as a parent you can distinguish between these weekly fantasies and serious thoughts, feelings, and questions that your child is having about who they are.

> I would be considered a toxic and "transphobic" parent

Yeah... If your kid tells you something big (and potentially to them shameful/scary) about themselves (whatever it is) and you brush it off, that would be kind of toxic and shitty.

> That these medical procedures and gender "counseling" could provided to my child without my input or approval (in the name of "safe spaces") should be alarming to most parents.

In all states, minors who seek transgender treatment need parental consent.

> We need to understand what's going on in our schools and with our children before we smear people with this "transphobia" neologism, because it's not productive nor conducive to discussion.

I agree that this is a complex topic that requires us to have thoughtful in depth discussions, one way to do that is to stop spreading Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt you pulled from a book full of cherry-picked anecdotal stories designed to spread FUD.
Yes, we are all so much better off because anything text gets sent in Word docs and anything graphical gets sent as PowerPoint slides. /s

Microsoft is probably the most aggressively mediocre company in history, and the poor quality of everything has extracted an enormous lost productivity cost. Those of you old enough to remember IIS and early internet Microsoft know.

Even today, it takes five full seconds for my work Outlook webmail to load. Every person in the organization waiting for each task in Outlook n times per day adds up to a lot of lost productivity. And Outlook adds nothing to email that we haven't had since forever. Microsoft just took it over and made it slow and convinced the corporate types to use it. Rinse and repeat for everything they do.
