- Teradici is the best I’ve used (hardware and software options)

- HP remote graphics licenses come with some Linux workstations

- Amazon NICE DCV is used in AWS Workspaces (disclaimer I work for AWS)

- Thinlinc is high performance but no GPU acceleration or audio the last time I used it

There are others but those are the ones I’ve used the most and recommend
Diminishing returns on complexity might just mean that when thing get complex, they get harder to figure out, so a larger percentage of attempts at improvement (even attempts at simplification) are likely to fail. Given that complex societies take a long time to rise, the perpetrators thereof may see the long-term upward course as a law of nature, and become a little over-optimistic about the advantages of change.

The most universal law of nature: Periods of exponential growth always end.

Wow.
Thank you for the answers. I didn't find it difficult to transition to stevia. At first, it had a different taste from sugar (not unpleasant, much sweeter) but I got used to the taste. Some people find stevia has a bitter aftertaste. Lots of stevia products are a mixture of stevia and erythritol (like 'Truvia') to mask any bitter aftertaste. I use less stevia than sugar (about half of the sugar amount).

I don't think the comparison here is valid even in the slightest, and I am not even talking about it from the "terrorist groups and defense contractors are not morally equal" angle at all.

I simply think that the venn diagram of people willing to do software dev work for a defense contractor like Boeing or Raytheon and people willing to do software dev work for the cartels/terrorist groups is not even close to approaching a full circle.

Sure, most people willing to do software dev work for the cartels/terrorist groups are probably totally morally ok with doing work for a defense contractor. But I am willing to bet that most people willing to work for a defense contractor will not feel morally alright working for the cartels/terrorist groups even in the slightest.
"Moscow lures them with welcome money and jobs"

I wish the West did this for the millions of displaced people due to its misguided war in the middle east, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, somalia, Vietnam, Cambodia....

A pointless war by a madman more complicated by pointless chest thumping sanctions by the west. And I keep repeating that this will be the final nail in the coffin of a unipolar world as well as western hegemony.

Most countries will start buying gold and dump their euros and dollars making the fight against inflation even more terrible not to mention the energy crisis.

Can the stickiness of the Mercator projection in the West be attributed to the fact that most of the West is in the regions of the projection that are most distorted, which allows Westerners to examine their own geography in more detail?

I mean, FFS, the family ended up living in a dirt hole dug into a damn riverbank! Not a nice hobbit home, either: we’re talking a raw dirt hole. Pa was bug-fuck crazy and anyone who reads the books as an adult can see it writ large.

> 1) they got a million dollar windfall

You're looking at it stricly as if housing was a investment to be cashed out, as opposed to a place to settle down and live life.

There is no windfall. They got kicked out of their home by being forced to sell it.

Is the $1M a lot? Well, they are now homeless. If the property values rose so much that they got the million, all other properties rose as well and being now homeless they still need to buy a new home. It'll have to be much smaller or maybe there's nothing affordable available anymore so they have to uproot life (jobs, schools, friends, family, doctors) and move to a much cheaper city.

Very cruel, and all because some richer people want to move in and take over? That's the kind of abuse that leads to things like Prop13.

> #3 cash-out refinance continuously

This is completely unrealistic. You can't pay a recurring cost by going farther into debt every year if you can never pay it back.

Wow, hard to disagree with a post more.

Chrome has been doing some terribly shady stuff with Blink whether we look at their various tracking proposals, “portals” which are a blatant attempt at ossifying Google as basically the internet itself, or the extreme standard-stuffing they continue to participate in to ensure no further competitors can pop up.

But beyond that nearly every point you raise here is completely off.

WebKit is superior to Blink, in almost all ways. It’s simply a much better browser and has been for a couple years now. Faster, lighter, and supports nearly everything you need. Every time I’m forced use Chrome, it’s like having to walk through a shady neighborhood - I literally can’t wait to close it. That thing sucks memory and battery in a way no app should, and Googles numerous shady tactics in trying to get you to login so they can avoid your privacy settings is downright hostile.

Leaps in best practices? Is that a joke? Web Components pushed by them is one of the worst things to happen to the web. Half of the standards they’ve pushed are actually regressions.

And again, Chrome is much slower and more bloated. If anything Safari is far better today for delivering a more native experience.

And your last paragraph is very much the kicker. The funny thing is the Safari thing is the only thing keeping Chrome in check. If this is what they’ve tried to get away with with Safari, I don’t understand how you can be advocating for even less competition. Interop is an incredible project that will save developers massive amounts of time, while ensuring we don’t end up with the most privacy invasive and manipulative company of all time controlling the web for the next 1000 years. Thank god for Safari.
Historically, the question is to be asked the other way round.

Los Angeles and the Bay Area provides massive windfalls to property owners because the State of California's tax system is not based on the Georgist principle that 100% of the "unearned increment" of land value appreciation should be taxed away.

And in the case of the Georgist system being discussed, a typical poor person who is living on a typically tight budget and typically doesn't own very much of their home equity has very strong financial incentives to avoid unaffordable tax rises. Sure, they still have "options" to pay that bill, just like unemployed people also have "options" to sell and move in with family, take on lodgers or refinance, but if the consequence of house price rises from are that you have to choose between sharing, moving or paying refinancing costs on your house it's definitely not a windfall. And they're not finally priced out of an area when it's a million pound plot attractive to developers who want to build condos, they're priced out of their still-very-undesirable area as soon as the LVT bumps up 20%, perhaps because some well meaning citizen planted flowers instead of syringes in the local park.

The other option, of course, is to try to keep your house in line with your cost of living by attempting to thwart all attempts to generally improve the area. I think it's pretty obvious a lot of people will choose that...
I had no idea GPT-3 could write code! It seems to do pretty well even with a one-sentence prompt:

Write a C++ program that computes the dot product of two three-dimensional vectors.

---

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
double x1, x2, x3, y1, y2, y3;

//Get input for vector 1
cout << "Enter x1: ";
cin >> x1;
cout << "Enter y1: ";
cin >> y1;
cout << "Enter z1: ";
cin >> z1;

//Get input for vector 2
cout << "Enter x2: ";
cin >> x2;
cout << "Enter y2: ";
cin >> y2;
cout << "Enter z2: ";
cin >> z2;

//Calculate the dot product
double dot_product = x1*x2 + y1*y2 + z1*z2;

//Print the result
cout << "The dot product is: " << dot_product << endl;

return 0;
}

EDIT: It even does Rust, I'm blown away! (I'll forgive the compile error, it's close enough)

fn main() {
let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
let v2 = vec![4, 5, 6];

let dot_product = v1.iter().zip(v2).map(|(x, y)| x * y).sum();

println!("The dot product of {:?} and {:?} is {}", v1, v2, dot_product);
}

I don't know, I tutored an introductory course on data science in Python last semester, and yeah copilot would have been able to answer most of the problems. But students would have been able to copypaste them from somewhere else anyway. If you want to test them, have them explain what they did, and why they wrote it this way and not another way. But personally, I believe that people are at the university to learn learning, and to learn independence, and if they really want to cheat then it is their fault. You spend a lot of time (and in some places money) to be here, so you might as well be honest and learn. The degree itself is not as helpful as one might think. It is the stuff you learn for the degree that helps you later on.

But on the other hand, I found copilot useful as a tutor. When somebody asked about an API, I didn't have to akwardly search the documentation, I fired up VS code and have copilot suggest something (without the students seeing it of course ;-)).
Btw: people also invented hammocks (somewhere in South America).

Hammocks are really comfortable, why comparing beds with sleeping on the ground? What's the point?

Maybe to be able to tell something like "primitive people and gorillas know instinctively how to sleep on a hard surface". Really?!

Try by yourself, there is probably not much of a choice, sleeping on the ground is uncomfortable in almost any position but few. Tired enough you will figure out.
Note that these are pre-2017 consumer SSDs. I think SSD compression fell out of favor due to the rise of FDE.
To clarify, I take atomic aligned reads and writes of machine-sized integers (say 32bit) for granted. I'm not aware of any machines where these simple read and write operations aren't atomic. So I don't consider those "atomics". By "atomics" I understand something like atomic exchange, compare-and-swap, atomic inc/dec.

You can implement practical SRSW queues without atomics. Preventing reordering in compiler and CPU is enough.

I believe you don't need atomics to achieve mutual exclusion, at least not for 2 processes (Peterson's algorithm).

> You always need control over your compiler

Yes, this was the other poster's point, you cannot implement threading purely as a library. Function calls like pthread_mutex_lock() must be synchronization points and the compiler must not reorder any instructions around them.
> I'm just surprised there isn't a standard

Standardization seemingly has windows, which if missed, make it far less likely and harder. Even when a need is recognized - eg, python's years of struggle to create a central module repository. But especially when you hit "why would anyone want that?!?" and "we don't approach things that way" barriers.

I recall many years back... dlopen/dlsym can redirect through a lazily-set lookup table, so a seemingly obvious thing to want, is to reset table entries, for live reloading. Given a very simple lookup table, value setting didn't seem a bizarre ask. But "changing a binding?!?" and "there's no standard spec" and "intriguing, but why?" and... I'd not be surprised if it never happened.

I love to see a sketch of the "how hard is it to standardize something, and what you can do about it" space.

Hey HN! I recently published a free tutorial on Boot.dev (my side project). It's not a FULL walkthrough, the purpose of "projects" on Boot.dev are to be "semi guided", but there is solution code at every step of the way in case you get stuck.

All the projects are completely free on Boot.dev, you don't even need to sign in. The courses are free to read, but in order to pass off assignments you need to login, and in some cases become a patron.

Anyhow, this project is a part of the "backend learning path": https://boot.dev/tracks/computer-science

I'd be really stoked to hear any and all feedback :) Hope you enjoy the project
This sounds almost exactly what happened to me and got me inspired to move into tech. I was working at an economic data company that had a bunch of grunts uploading publicly available data into our databases so our users could use it with our software. I figured out how to automate and simplify the some of the steps of the update process and shared it around with coworkers. I didn't get rewarded for it at all, then quit to do a coding bootcamp.

My advice: if the coding part is what you enjoy, pursue that. Go become a software engineer.
> This is incorrect, as the parent explained the point of an NFT is the signature, this proves you bought from a certain collection that was created by a certain wallet

Note that the parent seems to be arguing something in the system removes the need to trust in the artist, that it stops the artist from creating more items than they promised. But how? Nothing stops the artist from creating a second wallet, or a second collection.

> NFTs don’t replace the legal system, they simply remove the need for the artist to be trusted by a third party (an art gallery, etc) before they can authenticate their own work to a buyer.

I don't see how. How do I know that a given wallet ID is connected to the right person? OpenSea or whoever just takes the place of the gallery, and is effectively in charge of answering takedown requests.
I hate writing proper C++ casts because C style is just shorter (e.g. (T)(foobar)), and have to force myself to write the whole invocation. So yeah, not even having the lazy option wouldn't be too bad :)

Put it on the crazy pile: Ideas and creativity
That was exactly what I thought too. I kept trying to make the map seem “normal” but no matter when I tried some thing was always blown so far out of perspective it was unrecognizable. Every projection is so far off that it just becomes comical. At that point it clicked that the Mercator projection is just as bad, I’ve just seen it before.
No. The method relies heavily on the peculiar fine-tuning of the InstructGPT line of models, which are trained specifically to follow MTurk-style prose instructions. I imagine achieving similar results using a non-InstructGPT model would be hard, but I could be wrong.
This is a very clever piece of prompting. Thank you for the idea. Great discovery!
You are looking at it from a programmer standpoint rather than a mathematical standpoint.

Linear regression isn't just fitting a line, it's a statistical technique to fit a line of best fit. Hyperparameters are a bayesian term for parameters outside the system of test or "algorithm". User input really misses the bayesian aspect.

These terms actually have meaning so I'd be careful ascribe simpler definitions. The underlying meaning is important to the reason they work. If you don't have a really strong background in probability theory and statistics trying to dig into machine learning will take work. Id recommend taking an MITx course or picking up a textbook on probability so the terminology feels more natural.
There hasn’t been a single example of a government providing good housing at scale anywhere in the world though. If your target is effectively slums, then sure, form a government who has no incentive to compete for tenants with improvements.

The best humanlike intelligences we have take years of full time training, on real-world scenarios, to become fully competent at the tasks we set before them. Yes, I mean actual humans. What makes us think we can shove groomed, specialized data into our crude machines for a few hours and get something remotely humanlike out the other end? Deep learning has produced some enormous wins at classification and generation tasks, but we are far from producing something with the coherence and sophistication of human intelligence. It may emerge in a decade or two. But the first ones will still have an energy budget that will dwarf that of any human brain.
Thank you for the links. I agree, it would be really useful to see more research. Newer products likes monkfruit sweetener and allulose have even less research.
> But to what end? That wouldn't align with any of his war goals.

"If I can't have it, no one can".

Besides, it looks like Ukraine might be able to retake land Russia has been occupying. If he destroys one city with nukes, the "surrender or I will take out cities one by one" is a valid plan to win a war. If the alternative is losing Crimea (which he was successfully holding) I can see him taking such a step.

Also, Ukraine would have fallen (and still might) without constant aid from the West. Using nukes to raise the danger level might be enough to stop the shipments of arms and intelligence.
