> They never tried, honestly - ICC had plenty of defaults that were targeted at performance above correctness.

Is it possible to get ICC level performance out of open source tools? Much of my CPU bound work relates to array signal processing, which, if you can code it right :) lends itself heavily to SIMD branchless pipelines. Plus some scatter gathers on a group of other cores to calculate a sparse crosscorrelation tensor.

I would love to be able to get same or better performing code out of clang or gcc, even it it takes 2-4x more work than with ICC...
Risk of death or permanent tissue damage due to poor medical practice long before a boy had any chance to reproduce isn't necessarily less significant than possible moderate transmission risk reduction for sexually transmitted diseases later in life [if they flouted strong social conventions against extra-marital sex]. Traditional societies hadn't figured out that cleaning tools between procedures reduced infections immediately afterwards obviously didn't know about the links between circumcisions and mildly reduced risk of certain rare ailments decades later.

You'd likely have others overrule you regardless, but the same applied when it came to unambiguously harmful quasi-medical procedures like FGM blood-letting.
Misumi is awesome. It's basically Japan's answer to McMaster-carr.

10 years ago I would have said Misumi's website was better than MMC. Unfortunately Misumi has gotten a bit less usable over the past decade, while McMaster has improved. Misumi's paper catalogue is incredible though and I surprise myself to say I would rather browse it than either their or McMaster's website.

Top quality configurable / customizable parts is certainly the way of the future, and it's amazing that Misumi has the whole process figured out. You can get a custom precision leadscrew of the length you want with the ends turned down to the diameter you want and the retaining ring grooves you want, and buy just one piece for a reasonable price. Any ordinary machine shop would reject the order unless you bought fifty or more.
Typo, it's JC
Mcmaster.com is also insanely fast. The reaction to every click is so incredibly responsive. There is something so pleasing about it.
The same effect can be seen by doing other things, like printing to PDF, or just changing the font to something you don’t normally use. For some reason the change of context itself makes the difference.
Most Canadian companies don't want to pay the salaries to have the "old guard." I suspect a lot of people left during COVID not just because they were burnt out but because they could get better pay working remotely for US companies.

They better hope we end up in a deep recession, because they're not fit to compete for talent when there's employers out there hiring remote at competitive rates.
The Fermi argument is on your side. Not a proof, of course.
Sorry for nitpicking, but it's believed now that Great Pyramids were built by well payed, well fed laborers, not by slaves.
Yes please, people in UX wastelands need hope and positive visions :)
McMaster is a great choice when you can value your time.

There is no comparison shipping. You need an industrial tricycle that gets the job done? Great. Add an industrial tricycle to your cart. Unless there is a meaningful difference between models, there will be only one choice. It will be curated and it will do what you generally expect it to do.

You'll pay more than you can get it for elsewhere, but it will do the job and it will arrive on time.

That's McMaster's value proposition. It is often a very good one.
I wish digikey was as good as McMaster. With digikey I often have to parse through a huge table with many pages to figure out what the difference is between a bunch of search results. On McMaster you can clearly see search results categorized in sub tables and densely arranged to make clear what the options are.

Are there any electronics websites that actually organized like McMaster?
Poor foone does not like to be posted here.
> C++20 support?

Not that I think it matters but this is, of everything, the strongest argument to me. For shame, clang, for shame! I switched because it had better modern c++ support. Guess the winds are changing.
It's not just an implementation detail. It's a detail that impacts whether or not the proposed system is a net gain.
They explained the reason. The only donation they got was $35.

If everyone donated except practically no one, then the whole society would have bought in and the laws would change.
But the reward (i.e., meaning) is defined by a human engineer. The point of the article is to say that we don’t have AGI yet because today’s AI needs humans to ascribe meaning to its decisions.

You can get same day in some areas. We usually get next day in Reno.
I never stopped. Tried iPads and a remarkable2 but never was able to beat how I read technical papers printed out and marked with pen/pencil.
High-quality, long-lived threads could be renamed "Immortal", since they are periodically renewed with fresh content/life, while some older comments are still relevant.
Chesterton's fence seems to apply here.
You could perhaps try Misumi. They were happy to ship to me in Canada when McMaster would not.
You're thinking of SM-3, not SM-2, and SM-3's minimum altitude is somewhere in the rarefied upper atmosphere when it burns out and can separate the kill vehicle. Not even the abortive SM-2 Block IV was hit-to-kill.

That said, all SAMs without nose proxy fuzing are /theoretically/ capable of directly impacting their targets. Only a scant handful of ABM-specialized interceptors are designed to do so in order to ensure either complete warhead destruction OR a miss that doesn't produce a boatload of shredded debris clutter.

A direct hit would shred a huge amount of of the airplane, the expanding cloud of non-warhead missile bits would blow a hole through the other side, and the entire thing would be LITTERED with shrapnel.

A marginal intercept is unlikely; you'd need the missile itself to fail in some way; airliners are, unfortunately, effortless targets. Even then, it would have to miss by an absolutely humongous distance (probably larger than a proxy fuze could measure, so command-detonated by the launching system) to golden BB one single piece of shrapnel into a vital airplane bit.

There are a nigh-infinite number of ways anti-air engagements can go, but virtually none of them result in splashing the target without poking a telltale quantity/distribution/shape of holes in it.
Kept me going? People might not like to hear stuff like this, but when my career was in the shitter it was: anger, resentment, bitterness, hate

All these things gave me the energy to get out of bed. I was a dead husk of a person, a total piece of shit, but eventually I got back up.
I'm whatever the opposite of a code golf extremist is.

E.g. I hate the so called "useless use of cat." I uselessly use cat all the dang time; visualizing the pipeline is infinity more useful then, what, "elegance?" Who cares?
In a scenario like this, it’s almost always a mistake to assume that the things you are measuring map directly to what the users “feel”. Sure, there may be some superstition involved, but however the skaters describe what they like or dislike about certain designs, you shouldn’t assume the measurement you are making maps to that property.
Oh for sure the setting has evolved plenty from the early days, but that inherent conflict of resource guarding vs access is what drives a lot piracy.

Other angles on the same continuum:

- You cannot pay a reasonable amount to a single provider and expect to watch the television shows your friends talk about.

- You cannot go back and re-watch your favorite television show on a streaming service where you originally watched it, as their catalog dropped it last year.
Will it always be a "low profile blog"? It just got on the front page of HN, which is not exactly "low profile".

As for what risk, two words: Great Cannon. For those who don't know, it's a well-known MITM attacker which injects JavaScript code on non-HTTPS pages, the injected JavaScript being used to do distributed denial of service attacks on other sites. Using HTTPS protects against these kinds of attacks.
I have never noted a gender disparity among colleagues who use McMaster. Everyone likes it just fine.
I’m absolutely sure that there is an amazon FIFO for orders that sometimes get delayed days in shipping in order not to build up an unnecessary queue that wouldn’t get emptied for pickup. Probably has a lot to do with them running their own logistics.
They are really fast to get back to you and will tell you what stuff is which can be helpful in certain situations where the material or vendor might matter.
What are the alternatives, that aren’t tied to any cryptocurrency?
Used wordstar on early pc 1989 to write tomes of my user interviews when implementing ERP systems. Back then was writing COBOL on Wang minis for ERP systems. Things just worked. BBS worked really well and were fun. Fast forward to 1996 and gopher land and list servers were a whole lot of fun, and just worked.

Had learned pascal but never got to use at work. TP as above said set a benchmark for speed and ease of use. Today one needs vi with plugins to achieve same.

Nowadays I prefer vi for all file editing except GUI stuff when modern ide can be very helpful. And home code mostly in python because I’m casual and can’t hold everything in my head so python code written in vi or using thonny is fun.

My 2c.
Since web apps became the only thing people create anymore
Yes, because its catalog is also a CAD library, so you can put the parts into your design and be sure the parts will fit when they arrive tomorrow. Because every part is neatly categorized, searchable by its properties.

I am infuriated when shopping for clothes, computer parts, etc. because the items are rarely categorized and when they are, it isn't comprehensive so searches tend to miss out on the obvious so I end up browsing a site's entire catalog.

And, they do sell a lot. They're the industry standard. The only problem I've had is that they won't ship to individuals in Canada so I had to think up a fake company name.
Rockauto is catering specifically to auto parts. It is far ahead of their competitors however.
I’d guess that the fact that they are allowing service you can pause now means that they are probably at break even on the user terminal hardware cost.

1 million terminals shipped means roughly $1 billion a year in revenue. Some customers are paying substantially more than $100 a month depending on the tier of service.
> but January has been the first month of the year through all of recorded history

Are you kidding? Not only are September through December literally named "Month 7" through "Month 10", but the year began in late March as recently as AD 1751. That is not a period where we're suffering from a lack of recorded history.
IMO the best place to put photos, at least the master copies is in AWS S3. It is both reliable and redundant, and they don’t mess with your data. They charge you every month for storing it, and again for accessing it, but that is it.

Use anything else you want for day to day usage - Cloudflare, Digital Ocean, Google Drive, etc. whatever fits your budget and needs. But sleep safe knowing your data has a backup.

Same thing with YouTube - you never know when Google might decide to wipe out your channel, and if they do you’ll never know why they did it, and you’ll have no recourse after they have done it. There are plenty of stories on HN where this has happened. So the master copy of all your videos should be in AWS so you can start again if you need to. IMO.
Fortunately old.reddit URLs still exist and can be automatically prepended by a browser extension, e.g. StopTheMadness which even works on iOS.
Yah, you generally don't have to worry, need a ratchet, need a metal shelf, need an air filter, it's going to do what it's supposed to.
Despair usually sets in when we feel that we are all alone in our trials and we don't have any control over our circumstances. Suicide and depression are very real problems that need professional help; but most people with despair just need a little help to come out of it on their own.

Focus on a few things you can control. Work on them every day. Find others who can help you. Sometimes the best way to find them is to help someone else. It not only takes your mind off your own problems, but good friendships can form when several people need each other and can offer some help and support to the others. That is one of the reasons that groups like AA can succeed.
Agreed. This makes me wonder if a purely rational species is something that can even survive evolution. A lot of irrational behaviors we exhibit are likely the result of traits that have helped us survive in the wild.
Microwaves are photons. I don't know if photoelectric cells will respond to that wavelength, but they are the same particle as visible electromagnetic radiation.
McMaster doesn't show you shipping and tax before you place your order! How is that legal? Everything else is fantastic though. I adore their catalogs and having the print version is a point of pride.
It's a solution in search of a problem. I've got self contained environments in Docker containers that accomplish all of that without introducing a couple extra runtime layers to have to debug.
> Google has, I think, 3?

There's at least:

1. SMS

2. TOTP

3. Google Prompt (on Android / iOS)

4. Offline security codes (distinct thing from TOTP, generated from Android settings)

5. Backup codes

6. Security Key
I need my printer at least once a year to print my state taxes (which don't have free e-file and I'm not paying Intuit a dime of I can help it). When it dies, I'll probably just start using the print shop.

I simply don't have much to print.
StopTheMadness can change the URL to old.reddit automatically, on iOS and other platforms.
> If you haven't read the article, would you think this site great?

If you search HN comments for "McMaster-Carr", you'll see their website is frequently brought up as an example of great UX, going back over 10 years.
On the "big enough market" question, passenger aircraft, and commercial shipping, and US military make for a compelling business case in of themselves. Each of these use cases have customers that will pay over the odds for a reliable connection to remote areas.
Holochain is taking a similar approach (DHT backed content addressable store) in this space and aren’t tied to a cryptocurrency.
This guy has clearly never worked on the operations side of a business
> beginner-friendly

> video in real time

These two are going to be mutually exclusive for a few years, I'm afraid. Sure, the hardware investment will put you back a few thousand dollars, but running the latest temporally-stable video models is not realistic for most experienced devs, much less a beginner. If you wanted to be corny you could train a few-shot voice model to sound like you and plug it into GPT-3, but that would be neither realtime nor particularly gratifying.

It's not exactly a surprise that this is a bad idea. Now I'm going to get nightmares with my AI doppelganger repeating GPT-3 gobbledygook in monotone...
If the reporter was having a natural conversation with the daughter and she said, “my dad could be charming,” that’s hardly swimming in irrationality.

She even admits that it was probably him.
> It's also precisely set to follow seasons. For example, the first day of Fall is actually the first day of "Mehr" (the 7th month). For some reason, the Gregorian calendar has it on Sep. 22.

This doesn't really work; the first day of Fall differs from place to place according to the specifics of the local climate.
My homebrew keg was leaking CO2, and the brewing supply company only sells the same crappy (= non-silicone) o-rings that had just failed. They wanted something dumb like $25 for a replacement part.

Enter McMaster-Carr. For significantly less money than fixing one bad o-ring, I have a pile of replacement sets for every seal in the system.
Rock Auto is great, definitely more consumer oriented and delivery is much slower, seems like professional mechanics rely on same day delivery. The biggest difference I see is that McMaster is curated, you want something there is usually one or maybe a couple options and it doesn't usually openly display the manufacturer. Rock Auto shows you all the options.

Standard libraries is what makes most of C++.

(Like, literally, going by the size of the language spec.)
Execs should also get held responsible for some churndex number because that ultimately reflects on how good the execution is in a way that cash flow deltas alone does not reflect.
The big problems with aging in the industry are health-related. There are several occupational diseases that any programmer sooner or later will have to deal with and the older professionals rarely warn the youngsters about them, and rarely coach them with preemptive measures.

Deteriorating eyesight, lower and upper back problems, hemorrhoids, weight gain, carpal tunnel syndrome and other RSIs are very, very common in our profession.

If you're reading this (perhaps because you still want to be programming in your 40s, 50s, and even 70s), make sure to prioritize your physical and mental health above everything else while you're still young. That is way more important than learning how not to suck at interviews, recognizing algorithms and knowing data structures. More important than compilers, programming languages, tools, hardware and operating systems.

It doesn't help if you used to be an exceptional architect, but you can't physically sit and code for even two straight hours anymore.

There isn't a massive amount of old programmers, for the same reason why you don't ever see a 70-year-old roughneck. Yes, the work of a programmer may not be as physically demanding, yet it requires certain mental and physical shape nevertheless.

So, please, keep yourself in shape. And not only by studying and acquiring new skills. Stay healthy for as long as you can stretch it out. Because sooner or later, that all sitting, staring at screens and coding will make you sick. That's just guaranteed.
At the moment this is just a smattering of socket programming and man pages available in full elsewhere.

Instructions on using the socket API is not kernel commentary.

Smart pointers and RAII do _so much_! I really like zero-cost abstractions, like a nested scope with a RAII object (which will get optimized out) to implement a BEFORE{} and AFTER{}.

That plus structured bindings return types. :)
1) Accept I am alone and that no one cares.

I've not had one for a long time. My business has one, that's usually enough for me.

But I've recently been thinking about getting one. I want to print templates for doing woodworking & similar in the shop.
FWIW, I wasn't trying to explain why it isn't funny, but why I don't find it funny. YMMV.

Nobody needs to know all those annoying details, but once you know, the joke doesn't work so well, at least it didn't for me.

Also I believe that the Moon deserves some respect. It makes nights less scary, inspires whimsical humans and provided a convenient way to measure middle-length periods of time when a precise calendar hadn't been developed... many moons ago.

> The planned sounding range of the subcontrabassoon is from A−1 (13.75 Hz) to (at least) F2
Yeah. It's kind of like how in chess, many learners study openings and gambits and obscure checkmates, when the low hanging fruit is just learning to spot and avoid blunders.

MMC is mostly about not making the mistakes everybody else makes, which puts it near the top even before you consider what they do well.
In Brazil we'll say things like "The party is at 8 da noite", where "da noite" means "at night". When context is obvious, we often ommit that, so I might say "We will have lunch at 1 one clock" meaning 13h because it is obvious that no one has lunch at 1am. We will generally use 24h time in writing because we cannot control context, and in other situations where ambiguity cannot be avoided otherwise.

To me the main advantage of 24h time is that it is easier to mentally calculate time, so for example 3 hours after 11:00 is just 11+3, which is 14:00h.
Are there any non-Microsoft email clients that support different authentication protocols with IMAP connections to Exchange Online? The message from Microsoft certainly makes it seem like IMAP itself is being deprecated.

I like this but given the max-width: 70ch, how do you prefer to handle things that you do want to take up the full screen width, such as pictures or header/footer with a background color? Explicitly set each of them to 100vw? I've tried the opposite approach, setting the max-width only on p,h1,h2,h3 (etc) but it's error-prone. I've never quite found a set up that feels simple and robust.
I did not mistake you for someone who believed that. I took you for someone relating an argument that requires adopting a framing that I don’t hold and does not interest me
lol, mcmaster carr is probably one of the only specialty e-commerce sites that anyone will randomly bring up in UX discussions or hobby conversations. everyone loves mcmaster carr, like actually everyone, so yeah, lots of people who haven't read this already independently decided that mcmaster carr is great.

even if you're not going to buy there (their prices are high, compared to alternative suppliers, is what I've heard, and there are items and brands they don't carry) it's still a super useful reference of what's possible and what general solutions in that area look like and cost, or even just basic lookup for what types of nuts and bolts you should look for in a project. like it's actually just a really nice pleasant interface for working with hardware in general.
I would've thought the whole Element AI debacle would've reined that in but I guess not? If the patron saint of DL can't keep a startup with 100M invested in it going, I don't even know what left, right, up and down are anymore.
