Ah, I was unaware that it applied regardless of it being a paid service or not. I imagine that would be somewhat analogous to distributing binaries of modified GPL software for free without providing the sources.

In any case, does the AGPL requirement to provide sources apply even if you are running an unmodified version? In other words, would merely pointing to the original repository not be enough?

Regarding the risk of accidental legal obligations, I suppose it depends on the details and technical wording of the licence.

If the requirement broadly covers any use of the software on the machine (e.g. some backend service that happens to help your public webserver to stay online) I can see the discomfort, especially if one must explicitly provide or link to unmodified sources too.

On the other hand though, if the requirement is limited to actual provision of the software's functionality to 3rd parties, I would argue that if someone accidentally provides it due to forgetting to block a port then they have much bigger problems than the AGPL.
Thing is, until they've seized and inspected it, they can't tell whether my device contains relevant data or not. I'm not confident that keeping separate devices will protect me from the exigencies of discovery.
It’s a solid summary of the most commonly known complaints and confirmed condition, and the commenter’s opinion is clear.

If someone values working for a firm that doesn’t have a questionable relationship with their employees, the comment provides value. It’s up to the reader to determine if the good outweighs this list; or at least enough to work there.

MSVC lacks -Og because it instead treats inlining, optimization, and inclusion of debug information as separate, orthogonal choices.

These days I rarely build a whole MSVC project as "Debug" without optimization. Instead I enable both optimization and debug information, so I always get call stacks and line-by-line stepping ability. When I end up debugging some file where the optimizations inhibit debuggability, I'll recompile just that compilation unit or library without optimization or inlining.

That said, I agree with the gist of the article that both "zero cost abstraction" and debuggability need to be constantly improved.
Makes sense, though I'd say that my brain still has a concept of up even when looking down at a fretboard. More so when I'm holding a guitar and looking horizontally outwards (reading from a screen) - my brain knows which line/string is closest to the ceiling and which is closest to the floor. If I'm copying a chord from another player (very common) then I'm naturally doing the horizontal transposition but never a vertical one (ok, lefties playing a right handed guitar backwards, but that's rare and confusing in itself).

As the page seems to be a resource for inexperienced players, and as there's already a lot of confusion between up/down for notes and spatially on a fretboard, making things blindingly obvious seems like a bonus. Even something as simple as making the "strings" different widths would give someone more information to spatially orientate themselves.

edit: I guess my brain is far more wired up to deal with things flipped horizontally (looking in a mirror, being shown how to perform an action by someone facing me), but I can't think of anything where I have to deal with objects flipped vertically (rather than rotated 180). Interesting to find out this seems to be a "me" things rather than common/obvious one :)

Thanks for sharing this and I've been certainly thinking along the same lines.

To add to this, I've known many folks that can accomplish certain tasks almost automatically and creatively. If you asked them to recall exactly what they did to achieve it they couldn't. And this usually isn't action on concrete information either but on intuition alone.

If humans worked primarily on memory we'd have been toast a long time ago. There's too much variation in the natural world to confront it solely on the basis of memory. I'd say we're more experientially oriented as opposed to memory oriented

Why retailers have a complicated relationship with self-checkout tech
I would say GPL constrains some freedoms of the code users to provide some freedoms to the end users.

It's not entirely clear what counts as derivative work with regards to GPL. There is a lot of corner cases and workarounds in the real world. It becomes even less clear when you widen the definition of distribution.

The unsuccessful learning technique the author describes at the beginning of the article is essentially the LIFO "stack" data structure/algo: You learn until you encounter a gap in your understanding, upon which you push your current material onto the stack, fix the knowledge gap, then pop the parent from the stack (with additional pushing/popping along the way, as needed).

Leaving the "working-memory-max=4" hypothesis aside (I'm sure it's all true), the "stack learning" paradigm has been hugely successful for me post-classroom, and (amusingly) specifically with Quantum Mechanics.

About ten years ago, I tried to understand what QM was about, by doing exactly what the article describes, starting at Wikipedia's "Quantum Mechanics" page. I got the exact result described: no understanding of the material.

However, the search eventually led me to ocw.mit.edu, where the same LIFO-based stack learning was super effective. Along the way, a refresher calculus course (also from OCW) got pushed onto then popped from the stack, as did the course "Vibrations and Waves" and the entire Walter Lewin lecture series (he has since been removed from OCW, but can be found on youtube).
I read comments to perfect my own reasoning, thinking, and understanding of the world and others. Likewise, I write comments to sharpen my own thinking and have it tested by others. In addition, I contribute facts and observations that hopefully will lead to opportunities for others to contribute their own thinking and the loop can continue endlessly.

Hacker News is really the only forum outside of IRC where I bother to do this these days. I am also somewhat perplexed as to why you frame writing comments as wanting exposure and permanence. All I want is brief exposure to peers whose opinions I respect and whose feedback I can rely on. I get that here, but pretty much nowhere else. Permanence is manifested in the gradual betterment of my mind; my comments are but a means to an end.

Why shouldn't it be legal to charge his bills to his estate?

Often estates don't have much if any money and that's the end of the story.

I don't think HN is a good place for this discussion, but anywhere you discuss will need to know if there's a surviving spouse, minor children, approximate size of the estate, if there was medical insurance (or if there should have been --- if Stepdad was eligible for government coverage (VA, Medicare, maybe Medicaid), sometimes that be added retroactively), etc.

It depends on the specific politician but I think a generally accurate characterization of the left is that they want to restrict gun access (some of us would say that'd be a "sensible restriction" while others would disagree). There are some notable exceptions here from rural states. One of my Senators, Bernie Sanders, is actually rather pro-gun rights coming from a state that has a strong hunting tradition - though he is less in favor of handgun access.

It seems like you've gone pretty far. I assume you started with something like radicals (constructive strokes) and built up to more complex Kanji/pictograms. I know in speaking to native Mandarin speakers that they see stroke order in the characters and were intrigued that I don't see that in english. Often we just learn the sound/typed elements (e.g. pinyin), which I guess might be like modern asian kids.

Have you looked at something like wanikani.com with the mnemonics or some of the more historical derivations of the different characters? Those might help build an internal story for why those characters mean what they do. As an adult, that helped me.

phoronix:AMD Zen 4 AVX-512 Performance Analysis On The Ryzen 9 7950X

https://www.phoronix.com/review/amd-zen4-avx512

"On average for the tested AVX-512 workloads, making use of the AVX-512 instructions led to around 59% higher performance compared to when artificially limiting the Ryzen 9 7950X to AVX2 / no-AVX512.

From these results I am rather impressed by the AVX-512 performance out of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X. While initially being disappointed when hearing of their "double pumping" approach rather than going for a 512-bit data path, these benchmark results speak for themselves. For software that can effectively make use of AVX-512 (and compiled so), there is significant performance uplift to enjoy while no negative impact in terms of reduced CPU clock speeds / higher power consumption (with oneDNN being one of the only exceptions seen so far in terms of higher power draw).

AVX-512 is looking good on the Ryzen 7000 series and I'll continue running more benchmarks over the weeks ahead. These AVX-512 results make me all the more excited for AMD EPYC "Genoa" where AVX-512 can be a lot more widely-used among HPC/server workloads. "
> I've been running on WordPress for about 10 years and it got unworkable because everything requires a plugin

You'd need to treat WP as if it was a Linux installation - you can install ANY package you want, and there are a zillion packages that instantly to be able to do anything, but if you go postal and install a billion packages, you will have to maintain all of them. Even if WP makes it easier thanks to prioritizing backwards compatibility, its still a task.

But there is no comparison - one day you will need to do something, and Ghost/Substack/Whatever won't have the feature for it. Then, back to WordPress.
ESims are quite nice, out here in the real world.

You can travel to a different country, find your data is crap because reasons -- either they're not roaming well (hello edge on a cheap out of country provider), or you've travelled to Switzerland and data now costs 7.13eur/mb. (yeah, a car/Gb)

So you pay for an ESIM from an MNVO, get a qr code, install, and you're good to go in 5 minutes from any network connection. Nothing physical required. And your normal number is still there for incoming calls/texts, because all the ESIM phones I've seen have at least two slots (or one + physical sim)

Of course, you've got to have an unlocked phone. But you wanted that anyway.
You can say that again. Zero trust that Cloudflare, the largest man-in-the-middle of the Internet which began its life as a CIA honeypot, will not abuse this.
Banning books and firing teachers is one thing, and I agree we should protect free speech.

However, I'm not sure I'm okay with the idea that feeding complex hormones to children who are not old enough to vote, drive, or get tattoos and/or piercings, or as you so put it is wise, and if this is what you mean by "forcibly de-transitioning children", then I'm actually okay with it.

Hormone therapy, like tattoos and/or piercings has a very permanent effect of the body. I believe such long term changes should only be allowed if the person is old enough to take the decision as an "informed adult".

Put more bluntly, if all of a sudden some new condition is discovered called "un-inked skin skin dysphoria", where not having a tattoo is believed to cause deep psychological trauma, I'd still make my kid wait to be a legal adult before they get a tattoo.
In the context of it being a 20 person company I don't think what they've listed is excessive. Each person is likely going to be using a subset of those tools in their day to day work.

Just spit balling, but say they had 2 designers who spent most of their day in Excalidraw/Figma/Retool. For them that's a great investment as it makes their lives way easier. Same deal with developers and github/sourcegraph/... and marketing with intercom/mailchimp/...

No doubt they could consolidate some things and just completely do without others, but overall it doesn't seem that crazy.
Plenty of examples of this in practice (where Engineering guesses at cloud configuration then never revisits).

The wrong CPU - 64 hypercores when 1 or 2 would do, or a single-core cheapie when a reserved larger CPU is appropriate etc.

The wrong support - AES support missing causing massive slowdowns.

The wrong connectivity - slow links between layers instead of co-located.

The wrong location - cheap US location instead of Hong Kong or someplace, causing massive latency issues

I've been at companies that did it all. Spending $X10 what a better configuration would have cost.
It's just normal human nature and a desire of wanting to communicate with others.

On the internet comments are the mean of communication as part of an online community. That is no different to talking to a bunch of friends in the pub. It's like asking "why do people talk to each other in a pub. Most conversations in pubs will not be heard by almost everybody in the world. Conversations with one person are only ever heard by one person, so what's the point of talking to them and expressing your thoughts and opinions?"

Do you see what I mean? There is no point in the same sense as there is no point in life if that is what you think.

I think the idea is you have many cherished ideas, and so many are actually false that you shouldn't have much difficulty killing one.

Or, another way of looking at it, your knowledge of so many areas is superficial and a deep dive into any one would let you know how you weren't even wrong, as the saying goes.

You can find people doing it in any HN thread about almost anything - often shows up as "why didn't they just do X". A non-domain expert with a "obvious solution" is almost always missing something major.

Learning is a lot of things, fact collection is one small part.

Learning is mostly model building. Building a model to predict future sensory inputs from past sensory inputs. Building a model to predict future sensory inputs from past sensory inputs and control inputs.

Learning is not just recording sensory inputs for future recall, it is taking them and building useful abstractions with them.
Because some people only or mostly read comments. Like me. Usually there a few posts giving more insights than the article itself.

Yes, a place I'm familiar with gives you a dollar amount. At RSU distribution time (i.e. when you actually receive them, not at offer-time), you will receive that dollar amount of shares, regardless of each share's value. TBH I'm not sure why they structure it this way (maybe fewer taxes than payroll? or looks better on a balance sheet, somehow?).
I’m the opposite, Im 15 years into my career of applied research which for me is like an extension of university. I tend to lean on Mathematica to do my calculus though. I think high school curriculum was optimized to expose a lot of people to things they won’t need on the off chance that a few will end up as researchers of some sort. It would be more efficient to identify such people earlier and split them off. I think historically that was the idea but there has been an egalitarian push to broaden the pool.

Deluxe Paint, ah! fond memories!
There is a difference between remembering something (like a fact) and a deep understanding of a concept.

Let me give you an example in programming: I sometimes have to google for the names of functions I've already used a hundred times. Sometimes extremely simple functions (just a while ago it was list.size() in Java), only because I can't remember the name of the function, but of course I understand the concept - the length of a list/array. I just can't remember if it's length(), or size() or count(), or whatever.

This deep understanding feels quite different from simple memorization. It feels more like something in my body, similar to muscle memory or like playing a piano piece. It's something I feel I will never forget.

I'd love to learn more about this kind of understanding. For years I've tried to find good reading about it, but much has been disappointing.
Not really.

There are different learning styles. I find memorization very difficult (poor passive recall), yet my comprehension is superior (aiding deduction.)

I find many with “photographic memory” to be sadly inadequate at comprehending and exploiting interrelationships.

There is something like dexterity which develops in the mind, an impression left which is not exactly remembering, yet definitely stored in the brain.
SLA: 75% of the cars that pass will be captured. The 25% covers equipment failure/theft/service outage/etc. This applies to the whole set, not per camera.

We mutually agree the roads - but it's unlikely I'll disagree unless you want to place four cameras per country worldwide to maximize logistics difficulties.

Half upfront, half when the service has been operating 3 months. Full refund if SLA not met. If you can show you're very solvent, you can pay in arrears instead.

"We have sophisticated logging set up as part of Cloudflare One, and this will extend to Cloudflare SIM. Today, Cloudflare One can be explicitly configured to log only the resources it blocks — the threats it’s protecting employees from — without logging every domain visited beyond that."

So my employer can log all of my network traffic metadata, but I can take their word for it that they have some setting set that it only logs hits on their deny list that they are filtering my private internet usage with? CloudFlare needs to give more power to employees here to make sure that employers are completely unable to monitor any traffic that doesn't go to their networks. The abuse potential for this in its current form is gigantic.

You're not saying much so only general advice goes here.

* Alan Watts (many talks in youtube). Dunno why but he has a soothing effect on me.

* A minor natural calming pill helps with the sleep. Sleep helps with everything.

* Some form of mild exercise.

* GETTING HELP if you're leaning in any way to self-harm.

* Someone to talk to.

* Giving myself time. As in "feck this. I'm giving myself time off".

* Get in the mentality that yourself is a buddy in need. Someone that you should help. Gives you some perspective.

* Stoicism (not my cup of tea but a friend swears by stoics).

* Mindfulness. No need to be a guru. Just realize to a minimal degree that you are not your thoughts. You are not even your feelings. I can argue you're not even the guy/gal that wakes up and does what you do. You're that weird something watching all these things from within. Again this will give you some perspective and distance.

* Realize that there is people out there dealing with much worse sh_t than whatever you're dealing. Watch out though. This line of thought is only useful to get you some perspective. Do not get too far with this as it is counterproductive.

* No matter how static your state seems right now one thing is for sure. It will change.*

In my company this is exactly how it works.

Everyone hopes the market has a bad day when the bonus is granted.
