In that scenario, the alternative is locking up the at-risk population, which would once again require a trade off of costs vs. benefits.
The supreme court can't make laws.
They can't. That sentence in the article is wrong according to the paper it references to support the statement. See [1].

It may be 2022, but I would love a screensaver version of this.
The main difference you're not getting is that there is accountability and regulations for when these issues happen, Crypto has none of these and it has been over 15 years in its existence.

Crypto is a lawless 'decentralised' wild west that has zero accountability for when anyone loses their money in smart contract hacks, scams, wallet draining and rugpulls, in all cases your money is gone with no refunds or consumer protection.

So yes, it is a system designed to fail.
> flat text file like a very ghetto database

My second site was a blog in about 1998. I had never heard of a blog, but whatever. I built a user system, "karma" system, ability to spend karma (anyone with enough karma could post on my front page), an interactive choose-your-own-adventure story where you got to help write it, and some other features I'm forgetting.

Anyway, I built all that with flat files at first, because I hadn't heard the word "database" yet--even though I wrote this in PHP. As soon as I heard about databases, I converted it in a couple days.
This is my dream as well. About 10 years (god has it been that long?) ago I took an informal poll of my small office and was shocked at how many of them had this specific dream. Not just some school anxiety dream. That specific dream where you have a class you either forgot you enrolled in or never attended and have the final coming up. It was like 60% of the office!
I've been told by Colorado politics people, of both parties, that grass roots organizations do not exist. Seasoned campaign workers don't believe they exist.
It is regulated by central banks though, and taxed. What's your definition of unregulated?

Also, here are the cumulative deaths by age group in the USA so far:

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-...

Precisely which groups would be isolated from "young people", and which would not, and on what basis? Do you judge the 44k deaths in the 40-49 cohort (likely parents of older children, along with teachers of many children) to be acceptable? Do you believe that an increase in their death count due to leaving children unrestricted would also be acceptable? Just how would not locking down kids work?
The impossible case of pitching rust in a web dev shop
I cared when I got a D instead of a C in my statistics course, but only because I retook it to get the D off my transcript. What really stung was I got the basically the same grade the second time around, but the professor (same professor) did a curve that year. I replaced that D with an A. Where was that curve the first time around?
> Not that person above but the install flow for docker is obnoxious on windows and Mac.

On windows it's `winget install docker`. Mac is more of the same, just drag and drop docker desktop into your Applications. You can skip the tutorials on first launch for desktop.

> Having to create an account for open source software isn't reasonable, there's ways around that but not easily for most people.

Creating an account is entirely optional, it doesn't even prompt you to sign in.

> there's ways around that but not easily for most people.

Please explain. It never requires an account at any point of the install. It never prompts for a sign in. It's entirely optional. How much easier can "not clicking the sign in button" be?

You don't even need to install docker desktop, you can just use docker CLI. It doesn't even have to be docker, you can use podman.

I believe OP comment is just struggling with adapting to containerized workflows. An account is not a requirement, nor is the install process difficult. If you're still wanting to do it without a container, you can just inspect the image to see what the steps are for configuring your environment yourself. It is more work to not use a container.
Crypto is very trackable and especially when cashing out. Only countries without kyc/aml protections allow individuals to cash out illicit crypto and that's only a small fraction.

Most of crypto is built on speculation which results in direct losses to consumers. And extensive and endless hacks, which is just another tax on consumers. Very little of bitcoin or any cryptocurrency is used for drugs, terrorism or other serious crimes.

Real world money laundering (trade based etc) is 500x that of bitcoin and real world drug dealing is at least 1000x greater than darknet markets.
That would be interesting data driven research.

I can say something about the effect I want to achieve with the money: recognition and publicity. So the amount of money should make them on front page of many news papers and such. Now from data it might interesting to get the right amount.

I just want the people who make such achievements to be recognized by younger generation.
Not just defund public schools, but legalize things like child porn and underage sex [1]. Purely local government is often shitty in the absence of any guardrail laws from a higher level. Small towns are filled with people who care for absolutely no one beyond their tiny group and can often have way more time on their hands than reasonable people who have work and family responsibilities and care about people around them.

Thanks for sharing. Losing O'Reilly subscription with ACM was devastating. They charge $499/year!!
All else being equal eg publication record, a candidate A from a less prestigious place is ranked higher than candidate B from a more prestigious place. This is because the candidate A did the same stuff with much less support than B.

The issue is that prestige is highly correlated to research outputs, so it is difficult to disentangle.
They made motherboard chipsets (nforce, iirc?), not motherboards, unless I missed something.

I think by the late 2000’s, though, their discreet gpus on laptops were problematic because they got so hot they detached from the motherboards or fried themselves. In a lot of cases, these systems shipped with these gpus and intel processors with integrated igpus.

This happened to a thinkpad t400 I had a while ago, the nvidia graphics stopped working and I had to disable it/enable the intel gpu in the bios (maybe even blind).

Iirc this snafu was what soured relations between apple and nvidia.
I graduated from high school in 2008 and college in 2012, but I still have a recurring nightmare where I find out that there's a class I'm supposed to be in but somehow forgot about and now must somehow redeem my grade despite having not shown up for any lectures or done any homework.
The interesting question is whether FB/Meta have continued to expand/promote features while knowing the potential negative effects on mental health they can have.

I'd also be curious to know if there's a subgroup of users whose mental health is improved by use of FB - certainly I'd suggest I had that experience personally, at a particularly low point in my life, having met somebody via FB that helped me through it (which was mutual btw, in fact they had more serious mental health issues than I did).
Why are people always more afraid of unsafe than C/++? Using C++ because you had to use unsafe is throwing the whole house out with the bath water.

It’s like Rust forces people to acknowledge when they are taking things in to their own hands while C/++ let’s them live in blissful ignorance.
what an amazing concept. Thank you for making this!
Humans are well adapted to the Earth of thousands of years ago, up until the 1800s or so.

The Earth of the future, not so much.
Most of these small ARM micros are an external memory interface and a good OS away from being a mid-90's workstation. The larger ones (high-end Cortex-Ms) are probably comparable to Powermacs of the early 2000's.
One of the early pieces of evidence for the existence of radioactivity had to do with the fact that the Earth’s core is way too hot to be billions of years old. Even if there were coal veins down there just burning slowly forever.
This could be helpful for debugging/refactoring legacy spaghetti code.
Bad multiple choice sets reminded me of a history class my friend took in summer school. All the questions were multiple choice, and the teacher was extremely lazy and decided that the answer bank for every question would just be randomly drawn from the population of all answers. The end result is that most the questions end up like :

What year was the Declaration of Independence signed?

a) Martian Luther King Jr.
b) The Spanish-American War
c) 1776
d) The New Deal

Needless to say everyone aced the test.
I am not convinced by this, at least for me. I think my dreams will place me in a random scene, it could be at school but could be at any of the schools during my lives with a mix of colleges and now my son will also be at the same school and weird situations come up where me and my son are in the same class.

During the dream the mind starts to realize something is wsrong, like "it is Ssunday why am I at school" , but sometimes the thought is "I did not prepared in years for this subject, in fact I was sure I finished the university, but then if I am here it means I still need to pass one more exam because I did not finished, then you get stressed out that something went wrong with the birocracy or you forgot to do some exam or sign something and you don't have finished"

My opinion is that there is no encoded way your subconscions is telling you are stressed about something, I remember in my high school years , my eye sight was getting worse slowly and I had many dreams where I am getting blind or my eyes are glued and can't opened them, pretty direct manifestation of the fears and anxiety without any metaphors with hidden meaning.
Crisis in India & China could be the deciding factors for a polycrisis.
People can easily sideline the weightage of this factor, by pointing to their low per capita GDP when compared to other western & developed countries.
Covid has shown that if factories in China are closed while the world is open, theb there would be inflation across the world because of decrease in supply. The fuel to this fire of inflation would be food export bans from countries like India, which have more than a billion to feed first and additonaly war in countries like Ukraine and Russia, further impacting food production / logistics around it.
You act like the other side doesn't compare everything to Hitler and the Nazis constantly though lol
This looks amazing. This is something that I would probably recommend to my clients as a consultant as a tool they could use to build their own tools. Right now I tend to recommend Airtable but that has issues and deficiencies with building tools/UIs on top of it.

I guess a lot of comments here will be about low-code which probably speaks to the bias of HN but that's kind of silly since low-code is extremely powerful and pervasive in the corporate world now.

Can you explain why the emphasis is on the collaboration on tool building? The collaboration ability seems like a cool and valuable feature but it seems really confusing to make that so central to the marketing.

The tool building itself is extremely valuable and sophisticated on its own. That must have taken an enormous amount of work so I don't understand why the collaborative aspect is the main thing being highlighted.

> The ATF can release a rule right now stating owning an AR-15 with a pistol grip is a felony, active at midnight and you best hope you pay attention to the few hours notice you've been given.

ATF rules get published in the Code of Federal Regulations

https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/27/chapter-II

and are subject to the Administrative Procedure Act

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Administrative_Procedure_Act_(...

and therefore are announced ahead of time in Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRMs) published in the Federal Register

https://www.regulations.gov/search?agencyIds=ATF&documentTyp...

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/search?conditions%...

and later, upon finalization, published again in the same place.

I don't mean to defend the scope of ATF's (or other agencies') power or discretion, which is quite broad, but the ambush rule with just a few hours' notice is pretty implausible under the APA. Normally the APA calls for at least 30 days' notice, and months are more typical.

https://www.federalregister.gov/uploads/2011/01/the_rulemaki...

There is an emergency rulemaking exception under the APA for "good-cause", but this is comparatively rarely used and (like other aspects of a rule) may be reviewed by the courts. ATF knows that it has a lot of critics who are likely to sue to challenge its rulemakings, and has often taken a considerable amount of time to make new rules even when there was a lot of political pressure brought to bear in favor of expanding regulations.

It's unfortunate that you might have to go to court to vindicate your rights under the APA, but that's almost equally unfortunately true of almost anything improper that any part of government might do to you. If a police officer decided to randomly seize your weapons because he just thought they looked scary and you oughtn't own something so dangerous-looking, you would also need to go to court to establish that the police office wasn't entitled to do that. Or if, like in the Hitchhiker's Guide, a local government authority decided to demolish your house without proper notice, you'd probably also have to go through the courts to get a remedy.
not sure, perhaps(cookies?) you are seeing a different chassis type, the one I ment to link to is "4U, 15 Bays & 8 Fans" it comes with three 3u(5.25) internal drive bays(5 drives each). honestly they suck, pull them to get access to the 5.15 bays.
It costs money to keep a book.

And lending a book is a positive action. If you gave the library your playboy collection should they keep it? Why or why not? Clearly, it is important to have standards for school libraries. There are other books that elementary school libraries should not contain. For example, mein kampf should be maybe available to higher-grade high-schoolers. Certainly not children. My school library growing up would not lend books marked for older grades to younger ones without permission. This is the same thing.
Gpu sag is a big issue in gaming computers. I had a small (by comparison and of more contemporary graphics cards) rx480 and bought a cheap 10 dollar graphics card brace to reduce its strain on the pci slot in 2021 to help reduce its chances of failure during the shortage. I use the brace to hold up my new ampere card now (which is maybe twice the length of the rx480).
Do you honestly think there is zero accountability or regulations for all of crypto? Would not a single fee levied towards a crypto company for violation of a law invalidate the point you are trying to make?

I would agree with you that more regulation is needed, but to keep saying there is zero regulation is either ignorant or disingenuous. Regulation can also coexist with something that is decentralized and is not obviously adversarial, e.g. we have regulations for gold markets to prevent scams, etc.
I remember seeing patches from Solar Designer so I wonder when the policy changed.
Just don't forget that capital works in the interests of capitalists above all. It's not because they suddenly started caring about all the countries they previously ignored.

Today Braintrust is a democratizing force enabling talent to earn from anywhere, yay! Tomorrow everyone is going to be competing with the absolute cheapest labor globally and NA will be earning avg(NA, Africa) salary while paying NA rents. Uber's trajectory is the same - in every market, it started out with drivers making amazing wages (yay Uber is great!!) and ended with them making less than minimum wage.
On mobile, it keeps making me log in.
Recursive Create Directory in C
I'm surprised this isn't mentioned here more clearly: Some high end cases like the be quiet silent base I'm using have the option to mount the graphics card vertically, basically parallel to the mainboard, in a separate anchor slot. It needs an additional connector cable (~$20), but other than that is easy to setup, looks better with a look-in case (the illuminated fans face the glass side) and the weight pulls on a special anchor point just for that with no electronics involved. Plus the card itself is more sturdy in that orientation and there is no issues with bending through its own weight. It might even be beneficial ventilation-wise as the graphics card no longer causes a horizontal divide (basically creating separate ventilation-zones on the top and bottom of the card).

Yes, the cable will add approximately ~0.3ns of additional latency due to the added 10cm of distance.

This is how it looks like:

This argument, much like the “just make your own x” meme, is one of the many hypotheticals that actually saw real world testing in the past two years.

These days, the ”private company so this isn’t 1A” argument oddly reminds me of the omnipresent 200x-era GOP claim that running a federal budget is akin to balancing a household checkbook. Designed to be convincingly simple to state and yet extremely obnoxious to refute to a layperson.

Facebook in particular probably wouldn’t even exist without backing from DARPA, the “defunct” TIA program, and a host of other spooky agencies, corporations, and individuals (Palantir and Thiel for instance).

Skip over 18 years of also-damning stuff to when the public/private mask started to blatantly slip in 2020: Since then, we’ve had multiple leaks, whistleblowers, etc demonstrating overt collaboration between the government and social media companies to censor, ban, and shape narratives.

Not a lawyer, don’t know how you’d frame a 1A lawsuit, but it is absolutely unacceptable that our digital public square is being operated by companies that clearly serve as “Bill of Rights Avoidance” shell corporations for the intelligence agencies and now the Executive Branch writ large.

It’s like everyone forgot about Snowden. This sort of highly suspicious take should be everyone’s default position at this point, particularly in tech.

And no, you absolutely cannot “just build your own Project Lifelog if you don’t like it”.
Placement new is kind of niche but it's not as rare as you might think, especially if you consider cases where you're using it through some other abstraction. For example, in C++ std::shared_ptr is implemented as the the object you're pointing to, plus another data structure called a control block that contains the reference count for the pointed-to data. The control block has to be heap allocated. If you're allocating a shared object, you could allocate the object being pointed to, and then also allocate the control block... but that requires two allocations. That's why the standard library has std::make_shared, which does a single allocation for both the object being pointed to as well as the control block (there's also a secondary benefit which is that the control block is adjacent in memory to the data it points to, which improves memory locality and caching). To implement std::make_shared you need to use placement new, as you're doing one allocation and two initializations.

I write C++ as my day job and while I wouldn't say I have to write placement new code often (I don't think I've used it once in the past year), it's definitely an essential tool for writing certain abstractions.
Of course! If only we and thousands of other hiring committees would have thought of that!

Obviously we read their work, their CVs, their teaching statements, their research proposals, listen to their presentations, have personal meetings, etc. But if you read my original comment again I am sure you will notice that this is not what I am talking about. I state multiple times that these “objective” metrics that you now tout in response to my post are strongly correlated with prestigious institutions and supervisory pedigree. Thus, picking them apart is incredibly challenging.
Sounds like you might have wanted to try social engineering on the teachers instead? Humans are always the weakest link
> Can there be a simpler language in that space?

Maybe not. The problem is that you have to have a language powerful enough to do all the things, even the things that haven't been thought of yet. That means, basically, that you have to be able to manipulate raw memory. You can't depend on a library or a language built-in, because you have to be able to write the library, and do things for which the builtin doesn't exist yet.

And then you have the problem of not blowing yourself up with that power. That comes with 1) all the danger of C, 2) all the complexity of C++, or 3) all the difficulty of the borrow checker in Rust. If a fourth language appears with the necessary power, it's going to have equivalent drawbacks.
Detroit? maybe not the center, that place needs to be bulldozed and replace all the lead pipes, etc.
I think it's curious, especially so many people reporting the same thing. Is it just people who were pressured really hard in school? I wasn't pressured, and could usually ace a test (or at least pass it). Certainly didn't ever stress about homework, and often didn't do it.

I don't think I've ever had a dream like that. I have dreamed I was back hanging out with my friends again, or exploring a weird sub-basement under the school, but nothing like what people are describing.
No need to apologise, a polite "I ran X which solves Y" related to the post is encouraged. Helps the rest of us learn about other solutions out there :-)
