I agree that we are sadly ending the chapter of free search but im quite sure this is just another roll call for some professors to make a quick buck like it always is.

Search needs help its true, but 8 million are not even gonna move the needle and that other engines have that much money invested, just to maintain their network switches.

This comment really sounds like: "why go to Mars, we haven't even explored our own oceans". As if those are somehow mutually exclusive.
Personally, I think the equivalent code would look bad in most languages, even with more verbose argument/type names and comments (which people seem to overlook often) - it's just that we try to make our applications do a bit too much.

Just look at some of other examples in the sibling comments!

> the ffmpeg mainline went moribund

Never. FFmpeg was actively rebase-merging Libav changes, but not vice-versa. Libav devs wanted to focus on API clean-up and harmonization, FFmpeg usually prioritized new features. Major Libav dev activity more or less died by 2017.
That seems very harmless.
Funny thing: what you are complaining about here is in fact a lack of power in typescripts typesystem.

And even that verbose signature is better than none imo.
That's incorrect. WASM supports the exact same multi-threaded/shared-memory/atomic-operations model as the JVM: https://github.com/WebAssembly/threads

Modern C++ has cross platform threads, filesystem access, etc. Unless you're actually trying to use platform specific technology, there's no need for #ifdefs.

For the most part CMake handles the cross platform toolchain issues, so it's just one flag to turn on Release Vs Debug builds, enable LTO, include dependencies etc. Again, it's just platform specific features that require if...endif sections.

The complaints I'm seeing here would be the equivalent of me complaining about Rust's garbage collection, the only difference is that Rust broke everyone's code in removing it while C++ managed to keep almost everything since the 1980s still working.
> Did something like that happen with ffmpeg a few years back? A huge amount of the dev work was being done by one at-the-time abrasive guy. They booted him, he forked, the ffmpeg mainline went moribund while the fork line kept getting better.

No, that’s not what happened with ffmpeg.

Multiple developers forked ffmpeg in a somewhat abrasive way because they disagreed with the rest of the team. They wanted to focus on cleaning the code and changing the api while others wanted to keep working on adding features.

Debian switched because the ffmpeg maintainer was part of the group. Sadly for the fork the mainline was very much more reactive and pragmatic than them. Ffmpeg kept merging all the good changes they made while they mostly refused to use ffmpeg code. Then a security auditor found that ffmpeg was good at fixing bugs while the fork did a poor job and that was the end of it. The fork was abandoned.
Progress in robotics will fix this. Everyone should have an AI assistent to prevent this. The AI could take care of you when you live and contact a company to collect your body when you die.

When I was a kid before we had legos we had some soviet alternative called constructor or something. Everything was made from metal, crews etc. obviously as a kid one of the first “hello world” things you will build is “plug” that you can insert into those holes in the wall. My older brother was lucky when he did it as the fuse in the house went off. My younger brother did the same about a decade later but holding in his hand two metal pins. He was also lucky that my dad was just passing through corridor and pushed him out. He got away with just burned skin on the fingers and a bit of shock.

You can just use the palm of your hand over your mouth,

Yours is a fair question. I think that, right now, adoption of WebAssembly is quite limited. On the other hand (here at LeanigTech) we are extremely bullish about its potential.

We believe that this technology would be adopted more with better tooling. Our main contribution to this space is Cheerp: A C++-to-WebAssembly _and_ JavaScript compiler (https://github.com/leaningtech/cheerp-meta/). It is designed to seamlessly take advantage of Wasm without sacrificing easy access to Web APIs, all from within C++ with no need of post-processing and glue code.

We know for a fact that amazing products can be build with Cheerp, because we have done it ourselves.

CheerpX is a x86 virtual machine running in the browser, fully written in C++ and compiled with Cheerp. It includes a JIT-compiler that is able to analyze x86 binary code and emit new WebAssembly modules on the fly.

He didn't accuse him of anything. You are making that up to make your position sound better.
Related, so I'd like to give a shout out to the guys who made meta-tegra[1] possible so that I don't have to use NVidia's garbage software, which barely resembles something you get out of a proper SBC.

Having easter eggs is cool.

Telling your users about what web technologies are and what certain settings mean is also cool.

Wanting to be helpful to a wider audience rather than have a funny easter egg for tech nerds feels like an okay thing to do, once a project is past a certain stage and aims for larger adoption.

That said, seeing "18 years ago" for the message dates in the discussion feels sobering.

The email reprinted in that PDF makes me irrationally angry to read. I hope there's an ebuild for Betterbird soon, because after reading that I'm not sure I want anything to do with Thunderbird anymore. Quote:

> * No interaction with any of the people involved. This includes

> o No interactions with Thunderbird community members, paid contributors, and Thunderbird Council members.

> o No interactions in any official Thunderbird channels, as well as external or unofficial channels like social media (Twitter, Facebook, Telegram).

You know what that is? That's fucking weaponized shunning. You know, like cults do. If this tells me one thing, it's that if I ever run an opensource project, I need to push back aggressively against any attempts to impose a code of conduct or found a council; such organizations seem to routinely attract terrible people.
The email notification for incorrect 2fa entry seems like a great idea.

We already get emails for suspicious login attempts, which isn't too useful as it's probs brute force and guessing. Too bad it requires mass adoption to become a norm.
> it’s a faster, more flexible, and lighter JVM-like thing.

Is there any benchmarks showing that wasmtime code can run faster than the equivalent JVM code?

How is Wasmtime more flexible than the JVM?

It's definitely lighter, for now, but I am not sure that will always be the case with the many WASM proposals.
The Theory of Ideas (aka Theory of Forms) is a specific conception of the true nature of the universe. Wikipedia seems to have a quite adequate introduction to it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_forms
From what you are writing, you really lack the basics here. Learning on the job is fine, but sometimes it's worth to spent dedicated time to learn foundations or at least get someone on board who can teach them.

I suggest to try to get your boss to sponsor this, since you need it for the job. It will also make your dev experience so much more fun!
I think No Man's Sky was more like Molyneux product. Somewhat there but entirely over hypped. It was thin, but entirely working product by my understanding. Less than promised at the launch though.
>beatsaber

Beatsaber is a great game but the graphics aren't very stressful (nor do they need to be).

Keep in mind people are also starting to mod VR into more and more new PC games that were never designed for it. Stuff like Elden Ring, FF7R, the Resident Evil remakes, etc.
Sounds like GPU uses system RAM like TPU as I can't find VRAM information in the page.
> I don't understand this particular complaint. Quantum computing is inherently probabilistic, of course, but that's only because quantum mechanics is inherently probabilistic.

The substrate of physical digital computers is analog and probabilistic too. We just put a threshold above which a logic signal is considered 1 and we give enough time for a state transition to be considered done. We also throw in the mix a large number of electrons so that it's very likely that the aggregate effect produces a definite answer.

This is not all that unlike what we have to do with quantum computers. You just have to find a suitable threshold after which your desired answer is sufficiently likely to come out.

Not a dumb question at all!

While it's indeed great for web developers in the short run. The problem is giving a single company too much power on the web. Google in the end, is also an ad company, which happens to also be starting making it harder for ad blockers to work:

The web should be available for all, and not managed by a single company.
Sometimes it's that, but often it's just that concepts don't really map 1-1. Especially humor, often jokes don't really directly translate well even with great translations, but also because there are connotations to certain words or phrases (e.g. allusions to folklore, or just the feeling of a word is different in each language) that could make a direct translation sound bad. Really common example is that you'll often see advertisements directly translated to English like "Let's go traveling!", "Let's eat seafood!" or whatever, but it just sounds lame in English since people don't talk the same way (and ironically sounds cooler to Japanese people because it's in a foreign language).
> they are not arbitrary products of the mind, being impressed into us by the objective reality - and how can something be impressed into us that is not itself part of reality, i.e. does not exist in the most obvious sense of the word.

They are not arbitrary products of the mind, for the reasons you explain; but they are products of the mind.

The property of NP-completeness didn't exist until we invented algorithms and analysed their time complexity, though many problems do posses that property; and in the same way the property of triangularity didn't exist until Greeks started imagining geometry in terms of idealized regions of space, defined in terms of simple relations between points without size. (And then, the triangularity property changed a lot when people started questioning the parallel postulate and discovered non-euclidean geometry).

It is not necessary that an entity exists for it to form impressions in the mind, it is enough that the mind can imagine it from actual existing perceptual elements, and our imagination fills in the details. Is it truly needed for a monster to exist under the bed for it to impress our juvenile minds?
Well put.

And it’s ok to have broad knowledge. Remember the “T”. Go deep on what interests you that way and keep your mind open.

Generalists do well in other career streams like product management, sales consulting, where broad range of knowledge needed so don’t fret. You are at the start of your career so make the most of the time to explore, try, learn, and yes maybe fail a few times, and you will more than likely find your niche(or it will find you).

Best wishes for a long and interesting career!
Funny that youtube is basically the opposite of google's search which will often only show you results that are relevant to top/recent stories making it very difficult to get results about anything else.

It doesn't even have to be that recent in some cases. Searching for "Sandy Hook Elementary" along with just about any other search term is going to give you a page with results about a shooting that took place a decade ago. Searching for a proper noun when they are the top story of the day is pretty much only going to give you that one story.
Don’t see anything wrong with this post and he’s definitely not a „dick“ here. Criticism is not the same as negativity.
I didn't know that fake engagement and alternate accounts are part of the perks. Makes YC looks really legit if companies can't even market themselves without shady tactics.

As soon as I see something like this it makes me want to run the other way and tell everyone I know to run the other way and never ever touch the product or company.
You sound like a curious person. Keep following the curiosity and what you like (authentically).
Everything else is second guessing.
Rust only released 1.0 in 2015. If you want to complain about pre-C++11 features, I would like to complain about Rust's garbage collector.
Less is more is also important for writing performant code. JS engines care about types, in the form of ‘shapes’ which is the V8 term for a specific structural layout and maps pretty neatly to TS structural types for obvious reasons. Simple types make performance issues like megamorphic inline cache issues much harder to create. If you see type spaghetti it’s a good hint that performance issues may be lurking depending on actual runtime usage. And if your runtime usage is actually simple then you don’t particularly need the flexibility the type spaghetti provides.
My previous employer used to plan "express checkout" weeks for developers. In between two larger projects, you'd get the chance to spend two weeks doing nothing other than picking low-hanging fruits off the bug-tracker tree.

It worked miracles, with minor-but-irritating bugs getting solved much faster, and with features for niche groups getting implemented as opposed to laying in wait for a bigger project it would thematically fit in.

Some devs even went out of their way to spend those two weeks on a single, irritating, deeply-rooted bug that nobody in their right mind would even want to fix.

I highly recommend HamStudy.org[0] - free online, or a $3.99 iOS/Android app. It keeps track of which questions you keep missing and will drill you on them. I found this approach was fantastic for passing the Technician exam, and also valid for the General, which I took a week or two later. The General license is worthwhile for the extra operating privileges, and not much more difficult than the Technician exam - just more stuff.

The Amateur Extra is much harder to cram for - more complicated questions, and more of them, and in the US, doesn't bring far more operating privileges than the General license. I did it so that I could convert it to a full German license, and it took a lot more studying for understanding than I did for the first two exams. I used "Amateur Radio Extra Class Licensing: For 2020 through 2024 License Examinations"[1] to understand the material, and "Pass Your Amateur Radio Extra Class Test - The Easy Way"[2] for shameless cramming.

Taking the exams online works out really well, as long as you have a room you can get totally clear and don't mind having three random but supportive volunteers watching you.

These headlines don't imply censorship. They're consistent with it, but they're also consistent with budget cutting:

Cookie popups are aids, what's someone gonna do? Say no and then quit the site? It doesn't actually change behaviour from the root cause, just passes on the different to the end user.
I think they're describing something more like a PRT system:

Knowing Adams he probably has a sockpuppet on HN ready to praise the virtues of Dilbert and Scott Adams.

Dilbert has not been culturally relevant for over 2 decades, and Scott Adams hasn't even stepped into an office setting in that time. Gee wonder why it got the axe.

The only thing that ever keeps Adams in the news is when he's using a mass shooting to promote his apps or when he decries being cancelled.
If this is the worst, this speaks a lot more about the Thunderbird project leaders than about this person.

Ove been thinking about this problem with Facebook's recommendations: While previous "dislikes" are taken into account when predicting of a user will interact with a post, the system is still fundementally trying to predict "click through rate" not whether the user enjoys a post or not. It might even be that disliking something is positively correlated with clicking it, since they may have watched the video before deciding it is no good.
