Haven't used Swift, but looking at the documentation, it seems to support `...` for end-inclusive and `..<` for end-exclusive.

Looking at the Swift standard library, end-exclusive ranges seem to be far more commonly used:

~/build/swift$ git grep -e '\.\.< *[a-zA-Z0-9_(]' --and --not -e '^ *//' -- stdlib/\*.swift | wc -l
599

~/build/swift$ git grep -e '\.\.\. *[a-zA-Z0-9_(]' --and --not -e '^ *//' -- stdlib/\*.swift | wc -l

Right, and even if you're not ready to apply yet you can look at the job ad's requirements and nice-to-haves (for instance for a job working on llvm or gcc you're going to need C/C++) and see how well you fit them.
OP's commment doesn't actually imply eugenics - it doesn't assert that people in other countries are somehow fundamentally inferior, you're just reading this into "corrupt and backwards minded society". But that is a matter of culture, not genetics.

>As other people have mentioned, its about not being able to afford to buy a house to raise kids in.

Why do you need a house to raise kids?
In many advanced countries there are some systems which will keep your kids feed and clothed even if you have no money at all.

This is one of the reasons you often see economically unsuccessful people have way more children and thus a larger influence on humanity's future.
Google hasn't released squat.

Google's product is vaporware and we shouldn't afford them any airtime until they release something usable. They're just trying to butt in and get press off of the backs of the teams actually working in the open, and that's super lame.

Release your model, Google, or stop bragging and talking over the others here. You're greedily sucking oxygen out of the conversation, and as a trillion dollar monopoly you don't deserve anything for free off of the backs of others. Not when you're not contributing. Stop being the rich kid talking over everyone else about how awesome your toys are.

Anyhow, the real story is Stable Diffusion. They're actively demonstrating the correct way to run this as opposed to the entirely closed OpenAI DALL-E or the (again vaporware) Google non-product.

Even MidJourney uses Stable Diffusion under the hood, using sophisticated prompt engineering to make their product distinct and powerful.

I found it far more helpful than I expected to simply wear a watch that emits a small buzz every hour on the hour. So many times I'd find myself drifting off task, get that little hourly buzz, and think 'oh, this isn't what I was meant to be doing' and get back on task.

This seems to happen more in B2B startups in my experience. I think it's because there's just more blind trust in B2B, and the success bar is a little lower than B2C. I worked at a company which was testing on production, didn't use source control. They messed up hard and frequent with critical customers, including a major media company that could have slandered the hell out of them.

That company still didn't die and are popular in the community. Natural selection applies in the business world, but some startups really are the cockroaches of the world.

That said, it's not common. It happens in maybe 2-3 jobs out of 10. Often these are the guys who say yes to everything the customer asks for, which puts them in a peculiar niche.
Perhaps I remember the mustang as larger than it was because my next car was significantly smaller, a 240z, but it is at the large end of the compact cars, which have been getting larger themselves as of late, as tends to happen. Actually, most the popular cars have gotten much larger in recent decades. In 2002, the Camry was much closer in size to the Mustang, still about 6" longer, but skinnier.

I'm not sure why you compared the Mustang to an Explorer though. I mentioned the thunderbird as being comparable to trucks, and those were well over 200 inches in the 60's. It's still an exaggeration to say that's as large as a truck with a crew cab in most cases, but the 209.4" length of a 1969 Thunderbird sedan is slightly longer than a Ford F150 with a regular bed size at 209.1". They were all, by most measures, much larger than their comparable categories today, and much larger than those categories a decade or two ago.
Filling out timesheets does wonders for this, even if you're not billing per hour. The mere act of writing down what you've done makes you so much more aware of where your time's going.

Pixel values are discrete (length x width x r256 x g256 x b256) and vertex values are continuous, so that is one major difference.

Secondly, there's vastly more labeled image data in the world than 3D data, so creating a CLMP (contrastive language and mesh pairing) model is harder.

It's very late but I may be able to give a much better answer on more of the nuances of 3D generation tomorrow.

Companies making CPUs are often looking for compiler engineers, mostly in the backend of course. Intel, AMD, ARM, STMicroelectronics, Kalray for instance. You might be able to find a job at a company working with the RISC-V arch too. You'll probably work on LLVM and/or GCC, or maybe an in-house compiler. I know someone working at one such company after doing a PhD in the area and they are happy. I won't be more precise in public, my email is in my profile.
Great point -- if you work for a large company, an internal transfer can be a great way to switch career specialties. Because the company already knows you well they're often willing to consider you even if you don't yet have much in-specialty experience in the new role. I got my start doing full time open source work by making an internal transfer (not in MS, different firm).

> Is declining fertility really such a societal and evolutionary danger

Yes. If modern (western dominated) society is not self-sustaining, this should be a big hint, that there is something deeply wrong with our culture.

> If you think of us all as one race, the human race

But that doesn't mean populations are interchangeable?

"since all traits influenced by genetics are expected to differ across populations (because the frequencies of genetic variations are rarely exactly the same across populations), the genetic influences on behavior and cognition will differ across populations, too.
You will sometimes hear that any biological differences among populations are likely to be small, because humans have diverged too recently from common ancestors for substantial differences to have arisen under the pressure of natural selection. This is not true. The ancestors of East Asians, Europeans, West Africans and Australians were, until recently, almost completely isolated from one another for 40,000 years or longer, which is more than sufficient time for the forces of evolution to work. Indeed, the study led by Dr. Kong showed that in Iceland, there has been measurable genetic selection against the genetic variations that predict more years of education in that population just within the last century."

We create 40kg of CO2 a day each through our diet, transport, consumption and other energy use. The idea we need to target our energy burden on Internet routers is absurd.
Hmm, even my personal website hovers around 1 MB per page (though with resources being cached, it's more like 50 KB per page), it's definitely easy for page sizes to creep up on you when you're not paying too much attention.

That said, about 100 KB of that is the Material Icons font (given that I started making it with an older library that still used icon fonts) which doesn't really compress at all, since the whole site with no caching but compression means transferring over just around 300 KB, almost half of which is the fonts.

But if you wanted to make a minimalist page with web-safe fonts, minimal interactivity and simple styling? I bet you could get decent results, along the lines of this (some profanity on the page): https://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ (or one of the dozens of other sites, that gradually add more styling and other elements)

However, once you add any of the larger popular frameworks/libraries to your project, the actual app sizes can grow by quite a bit, for example the most comprehensive comparison that I can find (from 2020) being: https://medium.com/dailyjs/a-realworld-comparison-of-front-e...

Many would say that it's definitely worth it, given how any of these frameworks can make development a bit more easier/structured, though I doubt everyone would necessarily agree (e.g. the complexity of Angular and even React, as well as the fast pace at which they evolve and change).

I too had issues with loud pops and crackles from my speakers and tried just about everything except picking apart the speakers (hardware is scary). Eventually I did investigate the speaker internals and the culprit turned out to be a bad potentiometer on the back of the subwoofer; I bypassed it with a wire which fixed the problem completely.

Ask HN: What do you use excess computer and storage for?
Hi

I am always on the look out for new hobbyist or power usages of computers. I know some people are interested in financial models and run their own smart trading algorithms.

I am interested in database design and internals so I write reference implementations of data structures and I have a toy SQL and Cypher database which I plan to change to be multi model.

I find the idea of processing trillions of records efficiently interesting.

I want to see how fast multiplying a trillion numbers by another trillion numbers is and maybe use the GPU to do so.

At one point I used OpenGrok to store sourcecode of large projects to try understand how they worked but I didn't do enough studying.

Storing sourcecode is one use of storage capacity for building in parallel with distcc.

I don't store music I use Spotify and I don't store video since I use Amazon Video.

The question becomes, what's a power usage of computers when you have all the processing power and storage space you need but nothing to process or store.

I tried to understand Gentoo but I didn't enjoy any of the instructions.

I can only read so much code a day.

I've looked at Kaggle and I didn't find any interesting data sets.

I am designing a Postgres synchronization solution for sharded postgres which I find interesting.

The truly interesting data is kept secret. This means I cannot store it or process it for insights. So what do I do instead?
You completely misunderstood the parent comment. They explicitly called out:

> lack of disproportionately large population of unproductive elderly dependents.
Except if the CPU is microcoded, those instructions might not mean what you think they do, and you need something like Intel's V-Tune to actually understand what the CPU is doing with them.
I'd go a step further and say organizational policies are a layer of hassle far above implementations.

In theory if one client sucks you can change client. Not so if your organization throws hissy fits unless you use "web outlook or else because 2FA sth sth".

So on my slow tiny laptop with a shitty connection, instead of using my lovely alpine client which would have been perfect for this laptop, I'm forced to choose between "zoom out until you can't see shit" vs "zoom in until the menu leaves no space for actual email" mode.
I have implemented order forms that would send an email to a printer located in the warehouse. The customer said they had a very well refined process from the days when fax was dominant and no good reason to change. That was a decade or two ago though, so maybe they now have caught up with that digital thing.

I always found it strange how people in the UK prefer driving manual transmissions, there's always talk of liking the "feeling" and "control" when driving, this is coming from people who are not enthusiasts and don't even like driving sometimes. 90% of driving tests in the UK are done in manual transmission cars[1]. Taking your driving test in an automatic means that you are not allowed to drive a manual[2].

After living in the US for a few years, I'd never go back to a manual car. I view driving as a chore more than a pleasure and I can't wait for them to be fully self driving.

It definitely seems to be more luxury cars over here that are automatic, and the cars for the everyman seem to still be manual.

While I mostly agree, I'm not sure it's possible to set up spam scoring properly. Either spam gets through, or some non-spam doesn't.

There's legitimate email that consistently gets marked as potential spam, and I don't know how to tell my mailreader to always trust that source. The tax service regularly mails me that there's a new message for me in my message box at the tax service site where I need to log in, which is a terrible way to communicate. Their paper mail does contain everything I need to know, but their email cannot because email is so insecure.

Something like email, but with authentication and encryption built in from the start, would be a really nice improvement.

> You need to be on John Galt's mountaintop to avoid these monopolies.

So be it. If we were talking about a governmental election, and "your team" lost, you would also have to disappear to the mountains if you wanted to avoid having to interface with the elected government that doesn't represent your interests. More likely you'll just suck up the loss. That's what elections entail... They are not about the individual.

> Sticking to a narrative where Google's monopoly/monopsony represents free choices between free people is idiotic.

In reality, Google wouldn't last long if a large swath had a problem with them. The fact of the matter is that they offer a compelling product that many people want to use. You might not want to, but your minority position means that you've lost the election. Suck it up or move to the mountains, I guess, because the vote isn't about you as an individual.

Monopolies of this sort can be problematic in that they can cause people to become blind to alternatives. If what Google offers is good enough, you're not compelled to look elsewhere. And when everyone has settled on the same good enough, there isn't someone else in your ear saying "You should check out X! It is even better than Google." This keeps the votes coming in for the incumbent.

But if Google were to become no longer good enough, people will quickly start to look for X and vote for something else. Google already had exactly that happen when they were coupling their product with "unsavoury" content, which scared away customers who didn't want to be associated with such content. They had to change their policy to win back the votes.

Voting works. That doesn't mean you will win.
