I have had times where I have decided to close YouTube Shorts and been unsuccessful for an hour and a half after I made the decision. I have not had a problem to nearly this extent with other applications, and I'm not even enjoying myself while I do it (my YouTube Shorts recommendation stream gets worse and worse the longer I scroll, and seems to get sucked into a really disturbing attractor of the most vile forms of misogyny and straight up rape advocacy I've ever seen, no matter what I do - thumbing things down, reporting them, not interacting with them at all, nothing seems to make a difference. Creating a new account gives me a fresh start but it gets sucked right back to that attractor. Presumably because of my demographics.). It reminds me of something someone once told me, that the scariest thing about cocaine for them was that they didn't like the way it made them feel, but that they would do it anyway when given the opportunity. (I'm not trying to say these things are equivalent, of course they aren't.)

We are not perfect rational agents. Our attention span is hackable. If you find yourself largely immune to this, you have my congratulations, but your experience is not the only one.
If it’s that big of an emergency they’ll come to my house. If it’s not that important it can wait. Being able to let go of that constant paranoia is part of why we’ve started doing this.
Makes me think of something I always wondered; did Steve know programming? He did work at Atari right?

I think I’ve always attributed Steve’s huge success to 3 things; Meeting Woz, Meeting Markkula and spending a lot of time to practise articulating himself.

I must admit, I envy the man. Who doesn’t. Apple is a fantastic company and keeps releasing great products.
I think what you're describing isn't inexperience or immaturity; its idealism in the idea that competent people should hold power.

The world may not work like that, but it isn't immature to fight for it.
In the US the banks write the loans and then offload them to Freddie and Fannie. So the gov is backstopping these loans and taking all the risks. There is no such thing in Canada and banks don’t want to take the risk (technically there are fixed loans but the interest rate is much much higher).
SMS does not work so well inside planes...
Honestly Apple should make the service free. It’s akin to making Airbags pay as you go; no just include them.

There are inputs that can slow it down by hours. Maybe the set the limit too low. Maybe they should have instead merged the PR that improves the speed by a huge amount. They didn't.
If you read what he wrote, your question is answered already.

Saying the best way we know is the best way we know is vacuous. Nothing about steam is especially good except that water is cheap. It was cheap before, and still is. Its problems are problems we have learned to live with.

But it costs more than wind or solar, even with free heat. So it is a dead end.

It varies by where you are on the island, and I don't mean this as an excuse for wastefulness, but Hawaii gets enough rain that it wouldn't be worth bothering with.
I've recently noticed that whenever I end up having to use services like Teams that try to automatically transcribe or notify me that such is happening, I tend to unconsciously start skewing my accent and general speech patterns to make that harder, perhaps as a subtle form of protest. Meanwhile, the humans don't seem to find it more difficult to understand.

Now I'm even more inclined to do it by default...

Unfortunately I don't know enough about STT/DSP to write a filter that can turn speech into something that completely fucks up AIs (bonus points for making them produce entirely different but plausibly correct words) while still remaining decently comprehensible to humans, or I'd give it a try.
If the government was running it, maybe.
The irony of spending time on an article about attention that covers no new ground and is all noise, very little signal...

If you do want a take on attention that is pretty interesting I'd recommend Stolen Focus[1] by Johann Hari.

Hari suggests there are lots of factors at play - he claims some of them are in our control, but many aren't. He looks into tech dark patterns, context switching, ADHD, sleep and a whole bunch of other factors.

Recommend it, I found it fascinating and like his writing style too.

I’ve seen a Clojure library that does proper “STM inside a map” concurrency (couldn’t easily google it right now, but it’s there).

I think single atom with serial writes is still better. Firstly, I think it’s more performant still, serial updates on atom are fast. And secondly, it’s much easier to reason about such code, much easier to test and debug it.

>My point was more that 'RISC vs CISC' is not a useful way to compare two processors.

It isn't. Instead, it is a way to compare ISAs. And RISC is the way to go, because we've known for some 40+ years that CISC is bad.

>In my opinion ISA isn't relevant or interesting.

Except when it is.

One example: x86 is too complex to be reasoned with, so it's not an option where high assurance (and thus formal proofs) is a necessity.

>What matters is keeping the core fed, and fed with the right data which puts focus on cache design, branch prediction, prefetching, and a variety of cool tricks...

Another example: ARMv8 and v9 have horrendous code density. As a result, L1 needs to be larger to fit the same amount of code. Which means lower frequency. larger area and higher power usage. Similarly, a microcontroller's ROM would have to be larger to fit the same program, also bad.

>RISC CPUs (like the RISC-V) fuse instructions into macro-ops.

Not really. Fusion is mostly academic, rather than an industry standard. E.g. no RISC-V processor in the market does fusion[0].

>I would respond, today, it (RISC) makes less difference than ever.

For most applications, end users don't know or care what ISA is in there.

But, for anyone actually designing systems, it does matter. Complexity breeds bugs. Most bugs are security bugs. x86's (the one CISC that still sees chips fabbed, large scale) complexity is insane. And security thus impossible; a losing proposition.

In the present hyper-networked world, this is unacceptable. In IoT, using x86 should be criminal negligence, and we will no doubt see it actually recognized as such in the courts at some point in the not-so-distant future.

x86 had a good run. It's already well past the time to move on, leave it in the past where it belongs.

Ask HN: Seeking open-source libraries/papers on linking disparate data
I'm looking for any libraries or papers outlining strategies/algorithms on automatically linking data sets together.

I recall there was one company that got sold that was doing this for government data/police data a while back.

E.g running this on your own personal data to link together bank transactions with gps/foursquare logins, emailed receipts, browser history etc.

E.g. sqlite table with another table, or Sqlite table-> disk files -> email.
But it's just a bizarre take now. Manufacturers are going hard on electrification. Even Caterpillar is working on electrified mining vehicles. ICE is done, and, to me, the people who want to read this sort of take are not in the socioeconomic bracket that reads Fortune anyway.
ETA: I missed that you seem to be saying it was 100% effective _for you_, I misread you as saying it was 100% effective in general; my bad.

No it isn't. For instance I recently tried to uninstall YouTube and my Android phone wouldn't let me (I know that I could move to a different distribution, but this is not high on my priorities list or something I want to mess with when I'm trying to relax, and many people wouldn't know where to begin). I've had periods where I uninstall and reinstall Twitter several times in a day.

Isn’t android a fork of the Linux kernel wrapped in a whole lot of Java? It unquestionably dominates its market, smart phones and it’s-a-laptop-and-definitely-not-a-netbook kind of devices, but even as a Linux variant, it seems very much in its own little world. Not the most popular commercial Unix implementation so much as the most popular OS ever, that also happens to be more Linux-like rather than Unix-like.
Edwin Catmull, founder of pixar, said that Steve jobs really mellowed out in his later years.
A nuanced and seemingly well-informed article. The part that hit me the hardest:

> When, in 2015, police raided the properties of Ronald Belciano, a Philadelphia drug lord, they found paintings by Renoir, Picasso, and Salvador Dalí, most of them held in a nearby storage locker. The man, it would seem, had little interest in actually looking at the works he’d acquired.

To go to that trouble and then not to bother enjoying your Renoir and Dali paintings... that hurts my heart.
isn't their point the breach of trust of large (>25mio revenue) business users of their software to not contribute financially to the developer staff (subscription)?

open source creators are systematically abused by large companies who free ride despite being able to financially contribute, and they just don't because they can.

"why give the creator a fair share if you can keep them alive with a few graceful breadcrumbs" seems to be such corporations way of thinking, highly profitable formally but the FOSS creators.

thus an agpl, thus the new Akka license.

We have all the technology in the world to make humanity live better. But the people who control it get to decide if it’s profitable enough.

But really, the solution is more research into anti-ageing science. Not how to maintain the ill and the aged until they die.

I encourage all young people in geriatric healthcare to wear ageing simulation suits to understand the problem first hand to come up with better solutions. It’s less than 3k and can also be rented.
The team eagerly wanted to redecorate, I "allowed" (for those who felt they needed this) the team to redecorate and move their desks how they saw the best layout. Boy did I get into trouble with the designer and corporate policy, because the desks in the whole enterprise were layouted in that (for developers bad) way (long rows). I threatened to leave and the team got their layout (4 desk islands, lots of moveable whiteboards, plants and dividers).
I don't know everything about nuclear fusion so I have to ask: Is it actually renewable?

In other words, are the byproducts able to form back into the "fuel" at a reasonable rate with the energy input of the Sun? I know that a selling point of fusion is that there is such an abundance of fuel that this doesn't matter. But if we treat finite energy sources as infinite, exponential growth in our energy budget means that we will undoubtedly run out of energy, as is being done with forests and such.

After all, I have a feeling people at the dawn of the industrial revolution thought the amount of coal available in the world would serve their needs "practically forever," until energy consumption scaled up by thousands of times.
Yes, family is an institution, and what you describe is beautiful dedication. Also society is an institution, and as they say "it takes a village to raise a child".
I think that speaks more to environmental hostility due to social/governmental choices. The woman lost her mobility because the mayor didn’t clear the side walks. Not because of winter.

If if we designed public transportation so it was convenient and usable by everyone older people would have more options in all weather.

If we had consistent (24/7), frequent, high coverage public transportation that was subsidized at the same rate as car infrastructure, everyone would use it. If it was faster than driving in traffic rich people would use it and support it as well.

We choose to build a society that only works for a tiny segment and makes all of our own lives more difficult (and eventually impossible).
Pointlessness is.

If you want to maximize pointlessness, Energy Vault is right there. But defrauding investors doesn't seem like a great choice to enable.

Maybe it would be better to do what might help avert global civilization collapse, thermonuclear war, and mass starvation?

Investing in practical energy-storage tech factory build-out, solar farms co-sited on reservoirs and pastures, cost-effective hydrogen and ammonia synthesis tech are all overwhelmingly better uses, and can all be equally as cool.
Khoi were kings until those bastards up north cross bred with Neanderthals, and for the rest of history those cross breeds thought they were the best thing ever and killed and dominated everyone else. Now they call themselves European. Super arrogant, violent race of hominids. Not to be trusted.
Finding a loophole in the system and working out a shortened lease length with a dealership on a $100K car is not a very strong example of a "vain egomaniac". I could also easily argue here a certain "hacker spirit", and that Jobs really valued his privacy.

Would you say the same about people who pay for VPN services to mask their IP address while browsing online?
Browsing the source code, I came across something completely unexpected. I didn't know you could put code in structs like this sample from kamby/kamby.c

struct KaNode *ka_add(struct KaNode *node, struct KaNode **env) {
if (node->type == KA_STR && node->next->type == KA_STR) {
struct KaNode *output = ka_str(node->str);
strcat(output->str, node->next->str);
return output;
}
return ka_num(node->num + node->next->num);
}

Is this legal? If so, I'm going to use the heck out of it for my version of STOIC.

[Edit] Ok.. thanks for the help.. I'm used to seeing function types declared AFTER the parameters because pascal habits die hard. It looked like a run of the mill structure declaration to me.
Woz did his big programming project at Atari.
The novel I'm quoting was written in 1992. :)
Exactly. I actually think it fits the casual outdoors-person quite well. I do weekend trips, offroading, some mountain biking, some scuba diving, work in the garage.. Something like this is great because a) it's durable and I don't have to baby it, and b) a lot of the features I want are there at a casually usable level. Simple dive computer? Sweet! Crash detection? Sweet! Battery that can last me for a weekend trip to the bush? Finally.
Linky? It seems preposterous to assume that we will be able to map the energy budget of earthlings over a thousand millennia.
I'll give you that. Once you put on too much, it just sorta stops absorbing.

It seems silly that you would admonish someone for bringing up exceptional web apps when the entire basis of discussion is the future of web apps. Exceptional web apps are exactly the kind of example you want to look for when discussing potential.

I don't know, to me it seems pretty hollow, like something the character Gavin Belson in "Silicon Valley" would do to virtue signal to himself to stroke his own ego. Words don't cost anything, especially to yourself.
"If someone tells you a fact you already know, they’ve essentially told you nothing at all."

I think it's interesting to consider how this is/is not true in a real life context.

If someone tells you a fact you already know, then it could be communicating several different things.

1. It might mean *they think* you don't know it.
2. It might mean they want to make sure *you know* they know you know it.
3. It might mean they believe you know it and want to communicate they agree.
4. It might mean they are hoping for you to (or not to) contradict/argue/refute it.

If, however, you can't tell which of those (or some other alternative) is intended, then no information was communicated at all.

Except...there is a message communicated that they have some interest or concern regarding the topic, which is different from remaining silent.

Whenever someone says anything, true, false, nonsense, lie, they are communicating a true and possibly significant fact - that they chose to say that thing, in whatever circumstance.

I am thinking of "Gödel, Escher, Bach", if you can't tell.
Probably .. but in the great scheme of local issues massive leaking fuel tanks directly over the aquifer are a far greater immediate concern:

People tend to remember the last chapter of a book. Which sometimes contradicts and is logically inconsistent with what happened before. But once invested in the story, the mind just goes with it.

Works great to sway public opinion and for propaganda purposes. As people just tend to repeat the narratives they most recently heard on TV or the news, rarely thinking back and noticing the contradictions, and memory holed events.

That seems like you're lying to yourself. Everyone goes along with tons of suboptimal ideas or has enough money and power that everyone does what they want or is insufferable and everyone avoids. You could be in the latter two categories, but that doesn't seem likely.
Let’s think three moves ahead here. Apple starts off with this good-publicity, peace-of-mind emergency service, gets a bunch of practice testing the technology in real-world situations, iterates and tweaks for a couple years, and then maybe in 2026 there’s a version of the iPhone that can use satellite communication for everyday non-emergency purposes.

But of course the battery will only get worse over time, and if you're running in low power mode that takes much of the value out of having an AW in the first place.
