Cosmopolitan Libc is a libc, so it can't very well depend on six other c libraries

Is that really the case? Given it’s specifically intended as a highly portable libc, in some cases maybe it could be implemented by calling through to the blessed system libc, rather than kernel calls.

I mean, that likely wouldn’t fit with your goals for the project, and it would likely need some horrible linker hackery, but in principle it seems technically possible. (I’ll believe you if you say it’s completely impossible, though!)
Keep your most valuables on you; else, hide them. Still no guarantee for a determined burglar, but they will be on edge and if it's not an easy snatch (e.g. by going straight for the hotel safe, which they probably will have done before) they won't want to hang out.

It's why the "do not disturb" and putting on the TV thing also works, it makes on-edge burglars doubt whether someone's there. And doubt is enough to discourage opportunists.
> It's almost comical to talk about foresight and Russia in the same sentence

I don't think our benchmark for foresight should be an aging dictator thats probably loosing his mind.

> The people that could realistically move from Russia already have.

What is the basis for this assertion? You could say 'we don't want them here', at least it would be honest. But let's not pretend they had every opportunity to leave and simply chose not to.

Most people can't leave because they have no long-term visas to anywhere.

Hundreds of thousands of people have fled to Georgia because it's one of the very few countries that allow visa-free entry. Many are illegally overstaying, because there is nothing else they can do.

For the top 5% of Russians that have knowledge of English, the legal chops,the income and the grounds to get a western visas, embassies take many months to process your documents, have quotas and limited processing capacity. And they reduced their staff levels since the 'special operation' started.

You can even be refused visa to donate an organ to your family

Suppose you are an upper class Russian that has savings, earned every penny honestly and wants to leave to Britain. What can you do? Well maybe you get yourself an excellent job that sponsors your visa, suppose you have 300k+ of salary and all the time in the world. But can you bring with your dumb brother? No, you will have to leave him behing, watch him get drafted and killed. Can you bring your aging mother with arthritis that needs regular help just to get through the day? No, you cannot. What are you meant to do, leave them behind to die?
> Kharkiv collapse was not that big.

That's nonsense. It was an entire front of the war. A huge land area. Russia spent months trying to conquer Izyum. There's basically no clear intel on what was left behind, or how many people were taken prisoner, but even if it's nothing, which it isn't, it's a major loss.

> At Bakhmut Russia did made small but meaningful progress with Ukrainian sources reporting the situation as difficult or even very difficult.

It has barely nudged in months. It is difficult. Fighting is hard. But it's not meaningful in the slightest and it's not strategically important.

> And Lyman are far from being liberated. Ukrainians forces made a progress threatening to surround Russian forces there, but the situation is rather unclear there. As for Lysychansk there were sporadic reports about small Ukrainian units nearby, but nothing more.

I give Lyman a week to hold out at most personally. It's surrounded on two sides, soon to be 3. If it falls you may see another yolo rush.

Lysyschansk is not currently an active fighting zone but they're pushing east from Bilohorivka, which is very close. It could take a while for that to develop.
While I am sympathetic to your concerns about project managers making decisions that should be reserved for the team, these metrics do contain useful info. I am sad that Isaac decided numpy wouldn't be used. It is fairly non-idiomatic not to use it for numerical problems. But if I cared that much I'd fork it. He has done a good job of late meticulously identifying simple, vs reasonable vs way too optimized and non portable solutions. Python is just an odd case. I would probably have used pytorch for a problem like Mandelbrot, but throwing gpu in there is way out of scope.
Israel Could Be One Attack Away from a Palestinian Intifada
My tech company's office is close to the BT office in London. I can see arguments for (separation of environments) and against (job market liquidity) office-working but the hybrid model for offices in the middle of London is a Hobson's choice between an expensive flat with no home-office or an affordable flat with a home-office, plus a very long commute 2/3 times a week.

Additionally you will find plenty of people who just don't turn up when you make the effort to come in.

Presumably it works well for everyone with fixed homes and families.

Works great for cargo cult Agile(tm) if that's your market.
On top of these skills, you actually need most of all software engineering and architecture experience. I don't think this is common in academia at all. Not in professors, not in PhD-students. You need practical experience building complex software at a large scale. Across that, you need to implement these CS fundamentals.

This is requires far more CS than you'll find in your usual software development effort, for sure, and many CS professors absolutely fit that bill. However, to the same degree it also demands far more on the software engineering side. People out of academia in general, from every time I've seen them build software, have not been all too impressive on that side of things.

Web search has an incredible demand for being well rounded, beyond anything else I've encountered. CS isn't the hard part bottle-necking everything else, it's just one of the many hard parts.
Web development has moved on to Javascript with a few Ruby on Rails stuff popping up from time to time. React is where the money's at these days.

I don't see Python being used for web much. Neither do I see generic programming being done with it because most companies have moved to Golang for that.

Python is popular for sure but specializing in it was a big mistake on my part. Pretty much every company will have a few internal projects in Python and that's why many of them list Python in their job description. It's also easy to pickup which means that almost everyone will know a little Python.

If I had generalized, my Python skills wouldn't be as good as they are today but my wallet wouldn't be as empty either. Just my 2 cents.

How else would you suggest this be done?

Self-reporting is strongly subject to bias. YouTube/Google have long been non-credible in reporting on their own activities. I've had some experience with this myself, as a third-party researcher:

It used to be that you could assume that you would need a PC of some kind, for work/email/homework whatever, so upgrading the pc so it could do games made sense.

Roughly the same time as the 360 era I built a PC for uni, and the extra cost to get console-beating parts (and adding in that PC games were cheaper or pirated) was way better value.

Now Im not sure what I would do in the same position, a laptop and console costs significantly less than a PC that even matches it, and unis mostly stopped having any focus on CAD
Eugenics is a loaded term with a lot of possible definitions, but the primary definition (and indeed the etymology) is 'improving the gene pool'. Abortion of children with Down's syndrome has a different goal, that of relieving suffering (either the child's suffering or the parents).

There are plenty of arguments on both sides regarding the UK's stance on aborting foetuses diagnosed with Down's syndrome, but I don't think it would fall under the 'eugenics' umbrella.

The only useful advice in there is to know the escape routes from your room, the rest sounds like it would have a net negative effect for the average person.

Choosing your hotel room based on maneuverability in the event of an attack is not only completely pointless if you don't know how to maneuver in the event of an attack, but more importantly, for the average person, running those sorts of scenarios in your head sounds like it will take away more from your mental health than whatever benefits you may get in terms of 10-to-the-minus-x percentage points gains in survival probability.

The other thing with putting things in a hotel safe is forgetting them when you leave. I basically hardly ever put clothes in a closet or a drawer in a hotel because over the course of hundreds of stays, I will forget at some point.
I'd much rather export this complexity to userland code than privileged kernel mode code though. It reduces the potential consequence for a mistake pretty drastically.
“Brown-out detection” is a pretty standard feature even in cheap microcontrollers (which, granted, are much more straightforward about their power). Don’t know how it holds up in an adversarial situation—not that well, probably.

Fot me, the spam that makes it through all comes from Gmail addresses. Maybe the filter is more lenient with Gmail accounts.
> I believe you'll agree there's a difference between "the community" and "we who claim to speak for the community."

Indeed.
For me, it just goes in cycles. For a couple of weeks, I'll get these spam emails from "Dick's Sporting Goods" telling me I won a chance at a Yeti cooler or something like that. These emails will make it through gmail's filter for a while, then they catch them, then they figure out how to get through again. That particular set of emails seems to be the only spam that ever makes it through the filter, but the cycle has been happening for quite a while now.
The crazy thing is that on the last year I found emails from Google, and Apple, in the spam folder. Apple's were invoices... of which I get a couple a month (iTunes purchases, subscriptions). Google's I think were announcements for services, etc. tied to a Workspaces work account.

I can't think of no actions I did (in terms of identifying email as spam) that could suggest I might consider emails from Google or Apple, or any emails with that content, as spam. I mark things regularly, but almost always actual spam / phishing, or commercial mass emails from companies I have no relation with (banks, etc.)
Google was always capitalist. No one was forced to work on it or invest in it.

On your other point: I've not read anything that suggests Google is paid things to promote content. Where do you get that from?

It's a (probably mis-)quote from a passage that demonstrates what you're saying.
Using YT via Incognito or Firefox containers, with frequently-cleared cookies, and using search as a primary discovery method ... works OK... It's not great, but it's not terrible.

The recency bias means that whatever terms you're searching become prevalent for that session. It's not possible to dismiss items or channels (idiotic on YT's part IMO), but you can at least create a short-lived preference instance unpolluted by any previous explorations.
Ask HN: My child food allergy from prick test. Can't find science based info
So my child was diagnosed with a food allergy from a prick test, but I am struggling to find good science based information on what this actually means.

For instance the University of Michigan website https://www.uofmhealth.org/conditions-treatments/food-allergy/diagnosis-testing says

> A positive SPT is reliable about 50 percent of the time, but a negative SPT result is about 95 percent predictive. [...] Your allergist will use your medical history, a physical exam and his or her own specialized training to interpret your results.

This sounds very close to a quackery. Can you recommend science based resources on food allergies diagnosed from skin prick test?

Beyond even what you mentioned, there's crazy payment bonus (holdback) structures based on so many variables it really doesn't make much sense to try to figure out what a dealer paid for a car.

A dealer for example will get more back per car sold, if they have the most modern building style. (a way manufacturers entice dealerships to remodel to latest corporate recommended aesthetics/experience).

They also pay more if your dealership is stand alone. A joint VW/Audi/Porsche dealership will end up paying more for cars (getting less money back technically) than a standalone dealership.

I could go on and on about the various metrics for getting more or less rebate money back.

Would you really pay more for your car because a dealership paid more because they hadn't remodeled recently? Of course not. You compare to what others are doing and that should be enough, unless you really want to try and randomly guess just how low they might go that day and walk and try again everywhere?

Vue 3 is more exciting, but I'm stuck on Vue 2 for my real work due to dependencies. Much of Vue 3 has been backported, and you can use Vue 3 like Vue 2, so it doesn't matter too much... probably go for 3 as it's the standard now.

I've looked at Svelte. I was deterred by lack of ecosystem. Vue's is just big enough to be workable, I think Svelte doesn't offer enough to reach the Vue/React size - probably.
Besides not being a native speaker, I never thought about using an article with Ukraine. Now that you mention it, in German we always use an article with Ukraine, I never noticed it. But this is true for some other countries. Countries like USA, UK, Netherlands, Switzerland or Turkey are also always used with an article, I don't know what is the pattern behind it. All of those are certainly sovereign nations. So nothing was implied by using an article with Ukraine.
Ostensibly based on what I said, yes. But in reality, he was right that untested meant partially insecure. There are real costs to tech debt. But it's hard to argue against a giant raise.

About 6 months ago I ran my own little unscientific experiment with Youtube, after I noticed them promoting a certain channel that I've never watched. Nothing political or anything like that. Just a run of the mill youtuber, currently very popular with the kids.

The first week or two I was pushing the "not interested" and "don't recommend channel" every time one of the videos would show up in my feed (mind you I've never actually clicked on one and watched it and I'm a firefox+ubo user). Those two buttons had no effect at all. So I tried flagging the videos for "unwanted content". No effect either. The videos would keep on appearing in my suggestions at various places for a whole month straight.

The theory being that the channel was being actively promoted by Youtube and was thus impossible to hide. Ties in with the removal of the 'dislike' button as I believe it had the same reasoning behind it: raising the value of their advertising service.

It's not bizarre. It's one of the many factors that has led to the genocide of Ukrainians. Little things matter too.

Surely, the main factor is that Russians disrespect everyone else too, including their own less lucky compatriots. Russia must be destroyed as a culture if they can't learn to behave as civilized humans, if they want to be enslavers only. Though, it looks like Putin is already succeeding in this task.

The only country destroying Ukraine here is Russia. All these mental gymnastics to say otherwise are just so weird. Russia attacked, Russia continues the fight (they can stop the war at any time, and I would be really surprised if there was any attack on Russia land by NATO in that case, lol)

And that you're talking about delusions of Ukrainian president and not a bleep about the delusions of Russia's wannabe czar, is also interesting... :D (take a huge millitarized country that he scared into preparing for a war for last 8 years since 2014, in 3 days, lol)

You also have to give to Zelensky that his begging is massively successful. He got 10's of choppers, massive ammounts of ammunition, hundreds of tanks, high hundreds of armored infantry transport vehicles, anti air defense systems, radars, advanced anti-radar and anit-ship missiles, tens of advanced MLRSs, and god knows what else. Even if you disagree with arming Ukraine, it's hard to call the behavbior that works delusional.

I'm pretty glad that Russia bleeds on its imperialistic adventures. It occupied my country for decades with hundreds of thousands of troops, and I want Russia to weaken as much as possible, so that risk of that happening again is as low as possible. I'll be all for trade again, when they get rid of their imperialistic mindset at the top.
You are just shifting the wars to be more localized…
Let me point out specifically what's wrong.

>Since then, things have only gotten worse. A woman in Ontario was forced into euthanasia because her housing benefits did not allow her to get better housing which didn’t aggravate her crippling allergies.

They use the word FORCED here.

Actual article:

Woman with chemical sensitivities chose medically-assisted death after failed bid to get better housing

She CHOSE.

Here's the thing. Reading the article.

She's the first person in the world to be diagnosed with a disease, so this is almost certainly completely untrue. She's not a fan of cigarette smoke, who is? She's in government housing and smells cigarette smoke. She really wanted to get away from that cigarette smell.

So the article is written with a rather hyperbole originally and then the spectator comes along and go much further which makes them fake news.
