That's great for those already there. For those of us still partially stuck on .Net Framework it is anything but trivial.

And sure, upgrading from .Net 5 to 6 was trivial, but do you really anticipate it will now finally remain stable for eternity? Give it two or three minor versions and they'll have come up with something else to break 90% of your dependencies.
It's not about creating demand. It's about creating wild swings in demand AND supply. Miners buy en masse when profitable and sell when not. That's what messes up the market. Gamers won't do that.
Depends, do you like your PC sounding like an airplane from all the fans spinning up?
Could be. Here in Italy is still hard to buy a PS5. I was smart enough to pre-order mine and score other 2 consoles (for friends, not scalping), but after 2 years that's ridiculous. They're not even on display in shops.
Any tips with the health/age? Or just all the classic ones, but actually doing them consistently.
Thanks for demonstrating.
"EVGA barely managing to profit

...

Hell, maybe it even directly helped with scaling up for the increasing ML demand."

This makes no sense. Any architecture 10 years in the future would be different and require retooling. It's also yet to be seen what demand ML will even generate in 10 years (it's been all the rage for the last 10 and we're nowhere close to those predictions). The money would be one that I could agree with helping in the future, but similar to what you said profit forecasts are low, so they won't even have that.

Power is a non issue for most people buying these cards for gaming. I couldn't care less if my desktop draws 500W or 1000W while gaming. If I get 144 fps vs 100 fps, I'll gladly accept the extra power consumption.
Before or after they fire me?
> Magnus & Nakamura and a handful of other grandmasters are basically the only reason why chess is not dead to the public

Not really, at all. That TV series and the COVID pandemic have way more to do with current chess popularity than Magnus & Nakamura. The playing public doesn't really care who the champion is, they play with themselves and only very few follow every game on major tournaments. As a spectator sport, chess is beyond boring, even worse than baseball (seriously, how come people in the US are so into watching baseball??!)
From 51:25 in this BBC documentary [0] you're introduced to Horst Herold [1] the President of the BKA (Federal police) who instigated the creation of the Suchsystem Inpol sowie Analysen [2] to catch the Baader Meinhoff gang by trawling citizens data. Until the violence of the Baader Meinhoff gang, there was sufficient popular sentiment including in politics, against any Federal use of power as prohibited by the constitution. This was effectively reversed with the assassination of Alfred Herrhausen [3] using a enfilade of shaped charges to slice through his armoured limousine. Herold created the first European data dragnet to identify anyone who profiled similarly to his quarry. The gang were apprehended only using indirect evidence ,[edit: of their whereabouts]. Violence and the ensuing police reactions disheartened and suppressed opposition to Federal government enforcement.

Oh cool a new essay from Paul.
No

There is no codified legal process for a US state to leave the Union, and the only previous attempt caused a civil war

A member of the EU has both an implicit right to withdraw from the treaties (deriving from international customary law around treaties) and an explicit legal path to follow. A process which they control in their entirety (as in they can't be forced to stay longer than they wish by the other countries and can't be forced to leave earlier than the prescribed deadline)

Comparing web3 to nuclear energy is so hilariously laughable.
It’s definitely anticompetitive. I bought a phone paid-in-full from Best Buy a few years ago and decided a few weeks later to move from Verizon to an MVNO. I learned about the phone-locking when activation failed.

Removing the lock was difficult. My first call to Verizon was long and ended with a T2 lying to me that they’d removed the lock. My second call was shorter because I was insistent that I see the change on my end before hanging up. After about half an hour, the T2 gave up and escalated up to T4 and I saw the unlock confirmation via SMS.

The whole time they kept trying to make me promise I would not move the unlocked phone to new service, as if that were something owed them from my paid-in-full purchase on a no-contract line.

Most people would not have the time and knowledge to solve this, and the carriers know it.
You'd expect that increase to be applied to a significant discount for the card being two years old.

Also the tariff was paused 6 months ago, retroactively refunding back to 11 months ago. It should have minimal effect on current stock.
They are asking for people who are ready to be exploited, usually without sharing either authority or rewards (for good outcomes) and without properly communicating risks (for bad outcomes). Avoid.
> Much of which serves mostly to create corporate careers for developers than to actually serve users.

I'm a developer that's done with this, but it brings in VC money so in my experience it serves mostly to create opportunities for CEOs to get some more money on the table via buzzword pitches.
They have it in their bio which is the HN norm, not announcing one’s creds at every turn.

But I think these “HNers would appreciate it!” community spokesman kinds of comments are kinda lame. I don’t think HNers need to be spoon fed “I’m Cloudlfare’s CTO btw! :^D” every time the guy rears his head. Especially just to say he never read TFA before…
I ride a Trek Domane 5 AL which allows spacing for a 48mm tire ( odd for a roadie ) - so I put a 48mm gravel tire on it and started riding it on light gravel. Works very very well. Carbon would be even better but Id still be waiting on it to arrive from the factory alas the aluminum version will have to do. The best bike in the world is the one you have in the garage to ride today.

Edit: spelling
Well, there aren't a lot of examples of products that you get a big discount on in exchange for signing up for a non-cancelable (or only with an early termination fee) service contract which used to be pretty much the standard model for cell phones. So you still the remnants of that practice even though a lot of people don't get carrier subsidies these days.
> They don't want the rate to be low, they want it to be zero

As someone that cannot even vote in the US (and is therefore neither red nor blue) - that seems _eminently fucking reasonable_. This kind of thing just does not happen in the UK.

I'd wager there have been fewer police killings (let along just shootings) in the past two decades in the UK than just this weekend in the US.

For anyone that actually believes in small, limited government, the idea that government agents can wander around shooting effectively at will is so ridiculous that anyone claiming to be "red team" should hang their heads in shame.
You can get a 3060ti that performs better than both consoles combined. Don't need to go to 40 series if you care about vfm at all.

For sure, the point I'm making is that there's a multi party transaction here, with systemic complexity. Makes it hard to pin responsibility on just Cloudflare (or just the user or just the ISP, etc).

No, the prices are still pretty high (although not insane anymore). They're probably not going down.

On the other hand, these GPUs are very very good for gaming - with DLSS, most of modern games will run at high details at 4K and look like something that scifi shows dreamed of just 10 years back.
No, the point is that it's an idea that everyone is likely to be familiar with, so it's not particularly novel. Why do you think that became a trope in the first place?

Sure, the blog post is good in that it references specific real world events, but the thesis is not really new information.

Movies often show that the sky is blue, but that doesn't mean that our expectation of a blue sky is irrational. Nevermind the fact that those movie tropes, and much of art in general, is a reflection of real world issues and events. The idea is so pervasive because we already know that it's true.
Show HN: Amplication v1.0 – open-source generator for Node.js microservices
The same thing people who say this always mean:

“In /my opinion/, this doesn’t add enough to the game experience to justify the performance penalty. Also, my hardware isn’t strong enough to use it. Therefor it’s a gimmick! Herpa derpa!”

That may actually be giving too much credit. It’s probably more like “I don’t like it so it’s a gimmick that no one else should enjoy”
Yea but that's how new tech works. If the price of every new generation of hardware scaled linearily with the increase in performance we'd be needing mortgages for a new PC/GPU.
No, you're not the only one. Apart from useState, which is elegant, I hate others with passion. How can a replacement for lifecycle methods be called useEffect? Seriously?

Great article, couldn't agree more with them.
I interpret it to mean that the graphical enhancements that RT can give you are only really appreciable if you're playing a single-player game that allows you to stop and check out how beautiful it is, while in a competitive multiplayer game, you're moving around too fast to really appreciate (or even notice) the difference RT gives you over fake reflections.
It depends on your resolution. If you have a 1080p monitor, look for a great 1080p card. same for 1440p, etc.

Hello, Yuval here, founder of Amplication. I’m very excited to share with you what the Amplication team is working on.

Amplication saves engineers from undifferentiated heavy lifting in application development, while helping organizations speed up delivery, and enforcing best practices and standardization across multiple teams and developers.

Amplication accelerates the development of backend applications and microservices with high-quality code generation, streamlining and automating development while solving issues that delay production readiness.

We built Amplication so developers like us could focus on coding the parts that matter rather than get distracted by repetitive tasks and boilerplate code.

Amplication is an open-source platform that lets you easily configure your backend services, by generating a human-readable and editable TypeScript Node.js codebase. The generated code includes everything you need to start writing your business logic.

Amplication continuously generates the code based on changes in the schema and configuration, then pushes the code to a GitHub repository to allow developers to continue off and edit it further based on their needs.

Today's launch of our v1.0 also incorporates a plugin architecture that enables developers to develop their own plugins to implement best practices, code conventions, custom integrations, and virtually anything in the generated code. Developers can use plugins created by Amplication’s core team, by our community, or create their own.

We already have several plugins on our Github plugins repo -https://github.com/amplication/plugins, including support for Kafka, MySQL PostgreSQL, Passport JWT, Passport Basic authentication, and the list is growing.

We can’t wait for you to experience Amplication, please share your thoughts.

Uh-huh. Meanwhile we're still launching new projects in Cobol, a language that's been "dead" for the past 40 years!
I've never had an iPhone, but I might try one if it had usb-C charging and a headphone jack. I'm not buying another phone without those; usb-c seems like it'll eventually happen, I don't know if Apple will be brave enough to return to a headphone jack, but I'm not using bluetooth and I'm not doing dongles again, and I'm not going to get headphones with usb cables either. If I don't like it, which seems probable, they have great resale value.
>A lot of business leadership handwave this away and I've seen some claim the only way to remain competitive was to go this insanely aggressive towards the target in some way: low budget, short timeline, "optimistic" feature sets, etc.

There's an old saw that goes something like, "fast, cheap, good. Pick two."

I've found that to be true over and over again.

All three options can be useful depending on whatever it is that's being worked on.

Many of the complaints in this discussion about setting deadlines seems to be that not enough resources are being allocated to meet the "fast and good" selection. Which, of course leads to an end result of "fast and cheap," which isn't the goal.

The main argument seems to be that "cheap and good" is better than "fast and cheap" because there aren't enough resources allocated to achieve "fast and good."

The solution, of course, isn't to eschew deadlines, but rather to determine the work required and make a decision about how the work should be done (with the above being a simple-minded way of describing that 'how').

It seems like deadlines become an issue when those setting such deadlines are focused on the "fast and cheap" pair, while the folks actually doing the work want "good" to be part of that pairing.

As someone who has worked both in environments which focus on minimizing time and cost when bidding for work, and in those where estimates realistically reflect the time and cost of completing the work, I find the latter to be much more effective.

The former is generally a shit show where no one is happy. The client either doesn't get what they need, or it's going to cost a whole bunch more than they were told, and those actually doing the work are pressed to work harder and faster because the client is pissed off.

And the business generally loses in the medium to long term as well, as they're unlikely to get repeat business and certainly won't get referrals from that client.

When good estimates are provided and the appropriate resources applied, projects often go much more smoothly and everyone wins -- over the short, medium and long term.

Obviously this requires good planning and a strong understanding of the goals and requirements and translating those into reasonably accurate estimates. Those (as others on this thread pointed out) are skills that can be learned.

Sadly, those skills seem to be in short supply. And more's the pity.

Edit: Clarified my prose.
You're right. $NVDA went from $2.6B in R&D for FY2019 to $6.3B for FY2022; and they've done a few cloud acquisitions in the meantime. They'll go through a tough period, sales wise, as the market gets flooded with second-hand stuff, but their fundamentals are solid.
lol no it won't
> They have their place.

How so? There is nothing that a class-based component can do that a hook-based component can't (EDIT: Except for error boundaries). I'd go as far as to say class-based components are strictly inferior because they force you split your behavior logic across lifecycle methods and are not easily composable. I've been able to support much more complex behavior easily with hooks (e.g., connection management), that would have been a nightmare with class-based components.

That's unfortunate because OpenCL seems like a great idea. SYCL is very similar to OpenCL, except it is based on C++17 instead of C99. Not a great advantage I think because for HPC you want to get as close to the metal as possible.
The supremacy of EU law is a pretty interesting one. It is a fundamental principle of the EU that EU law takes primacy/supremacy over national law (in areas where the EU has competence). How this actually works in practice can be a bit fuzzy, because the EU is certainly not going to send tanks into a member state's capital to enforce its laws.

As I understand it, the way this usually works is by national law explicitly endorsing EU law (usually at the level of the national constitution) and stating that in the event of any contradiction between EU law and domestic law, EU law will prevail. So EU law is "supreme" in practice, but that supremacy is granted/recognised under the domestic constitutional order.

In some countries, this recognition is limited, such that national courts will not permit EU law to override certain aspects of the national constitutional order. When that happens, there is really no easy solution.

An interesting recent example is https://www.politico.eu/article/brussels-closes-case-against... where the German court found that an ECB bond-buying programme was unconstitutional and in doing so refused to follow a prior decision of the ECJ.

Another consequence of this approach to supremacy is that significant changes to the EU treaties require a constitutional amendment in Ireland, which requires a referendum. To my knowledge Ireland is the only country to have such a binding legal requirement, with the effect that a number of amendments to the treaties have in the past been delayed or defeated by the Irish public voting against them.
No tricks or tips, but your post reminded me of a professor I had in undergrad. My man had been in computer science since before the name was invented... he started out as an aeronautical engineer (worked on the B-52 and Boeing 707, which were fascinating stories in their own right), and got into computing through some of the early aeronautical simulation work.

He was well-known for starting to illustrate something in Java or C (or whatever the nominal language for the class was), then, about 5 whiteboards later, he'd be writing in Lisp or FORTRAN, then go back to Java to wrap it up.

Awesome professor, though. Language wandering aside, he gave some of the clearest explanations I've ever encountered.
Solar is getting cheaper by the day, batteries are getting cheaper and more efficient by the day, and there's a ton of money pouring into research. Maybe I'm crazy, but I can see a future, maybe a few decades from now, when power is "too cheap to meter" because of renewables.
If you're off-grid, it's generally because you have to, and you reducing energy consumption is a must.

That said, I have an off-grid office (w/ ~5kw of storage and 1.5kw of solar) and it has definitely changed the way I use energy at home, and what my expectations for my next home will be.
We don't do deadlines.
We do scope.
We estimate scope using story points and estimate the number of cycles assuming "x" story points are hit in a cycle.
With clients, we share this process, giving transparency into our progress.
We never promise a specific release date, and if we see the timeline stretching further than the client would like, we adjust the scope of the project to shorten the length of the project.

I've never had a better relationship with clients with another model. They get to understand more of what a real development project is. We even invite them to our Cycle Demos for their project.

The best way to not get behind is to not set a deadline. Instead set a scope and budget. Communication is key. More often than not, adding developers does not speed up a project, only adjusting scope does.

Adjust Early.
Adjust Accordingly.
Adjust Often.
I mean it’s getting there. Add this to a best in class desktop processor at 300W and add in all the other power consumption and you are close to the wattage of a hot plate, kettle or small space heater.

Thanks again for your research! My grandfather was in fact Sicilian. It sounded like he was captured elsewhere though, so I didn't think origin was relevant. Apparently he was working as an airplane mechanic for the armed forces, and had been stationed in many places on the boot.

Or, leave both the constitution and treaties in place and wait to see if the EU bothers to take adverse action.
You're missing a rather interesting step in his adventures: staying at the RU Consulate for several days in Hong Kong. And then he ends up "stuck" in Moscow. Surely a coincidence.

>The EU isn't really a country, it's a free trade agreement with an unusually democratic (by the standard of FTAs) process for updating its own rules.

The EU isn't just a free trade agreement and it has never been just a free trade agreement. It has always been a political endeavour.

Of course that doesn't make it a country or a nation state at all, but let's not go too far in the other direction when trying to describe it.
Vagrant + vmware plugin + vmware tech preview for m1. Not perfect but it does work.
There's no security benefit, and I would have a hard time coming up with a practicality benefit. It's mostly just interesting to think about, especially in response to the article. The article is demonstrating fast MD5 second preimage attacks for various file formats (EDIT: apparently not preimage attacks, just collision attacks), so in response to that I'm wondering how these MD5-specific attacks might be mitigated, for fun. Consider it alternate history fiction in which we never discovered anything better than MD5 :)

In your examples, though, :

> two different PNGs that decode to the same bitmap

But would the the PNGs also have the same MD5 hash?

> one PNG that decodes to multiple different bitmaps, depending on which implementation decodes it

Yeah, that would be a challenge. Relying on implementation details, or results which are allowed to vary, wouldn't work. But since this is meant to supplement an existing MD5 hash, the idea is that the format consumer/interpreter would be in a good position to produce some format-aware fingerprint that is statistically likely enough to be different when the inputs are different.
