Ada offers security and simplicity and is already part of GCC but also has llvm now. Linux kernel drivers have also been demonstrated.

Perhaps it would be healthier for Rust to have competition?

Nvidia also chose Spark; a built in subset of Ada as being more cost effective for secure code than C++.

Assembly is also supported by Ada and I found it far easier to add than with C even.

C interface support is also excellent.
Firefox is not a good example of good (G)UI. It was at the beginning until they started copying Chrome.
Medieval cubits also varied.

You do have to calibrate to the King's Chamber cubit, which seems defensible. But the numbers do check out: 2phi²/(5pi/3) = 1.000015 is pretty trippy, no matter how you slice it. Likewise 5sqrt(6)pi/3-2sqrt(2) = 9.997.

There's no denying the ancients would be impressed with that sort of thing. Maybe even Newton, too. Of course, none of this proves the Egyptians knew about any of it.

Probably the lesson for us is that numerical coincidences are way more common and less significant than we are inclined to think.

I'm not sure how many trader-bros are allowed to make major decisions in pension funds, or why a trader-bro would want to work at a pension fund vs some other type of market participant which could reward their genius^H^H^H^H^H^H crazy risk taking.

If anything, it's the other way around. PS5 games often don't even have loading bars, since they assume almost-instant streaming of assets from the SSD.
That's exactly it. I wouldn't be surprised if EVERY NSA employee - especially new hires - frequently get their integrity tested like this.

I mean a lot of corporates hire companies to send fake phishing mails to employees - I got caught out a few times by that because I clicked a link on emails thinking "wtf is this about". The issue there of course is that the enterprise I'm working for at the moment sends tons of "wtf is this about" emails. Currently I've got about two dozen emails from some guy updating all 100+ people in the IT organization on their deployment process, every hitch they run into, plus fixed timed updates.
for the ultimate in efficiency though, what if this processing was done right inside the userspace process? /s /ducks
The premise that a pension should beat the market without taking on risk does seem suspect. Other traders have the same idea with higher risk tolerance. Maybe gambling over multiple decades is a significant advantage but that's also difficult to see.
I think the issue is actually the sandboxing and other stuff. WinRT StorageProvider API is known to be extremely slow and NTFS / Windows IO subsystem is itself already quite slow compared to UNIX. The issue IIRC is that StorageProvider is designed for sandboxing and the way they implemented that involves doing RPCs to other processes. So there's probably some heavy context switching involved, but it's architectural, and so the voice recorder was never fixed.

https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsAppSDK/issues/8

"The challenge here is simply that listing the StorageItems in a StorageFolder is incredibly slow and resource intensive compared to using the standard .Net/Win32 API to list the file paths. A quick test showed that in .Net it takes about 0.003ms per file, whereas with UWP StorageItems it takes about 2ms per file, which is around 700 times slower. Also, looking at the Runtime Broker, UWP uses about 70kB memory per file, which is a huge cost when loading 10,000+ files, whereas .Net uses around 0.1kB per file (that’s a very rough estimate)."

Somewhere else, someone proposes a theory that due to API mismatches/design issues in Win32 the RuntimeBroker is trying to use a design that isn't a great fit in order to try and provide certain security guarantees, and this requires pre-fetching a lot of data up front in case the app requests it. But NTFS is slow, so, all this additional traffic makes opening files via the Storage API really really slow.

The problem here isn't really "modern software", it's that Microsoft wrote a lot of new APIs over time with the intention of replacing Win32 (UWP/WinRT) but they aren't dogfooding them all that effectively, and they're using C++ for everything, so there are problems that don't get fixed for years.
The zeal/tunnel vision of early OOP evangelists resembles the zeal of today's FP evangelists...
Almost every developer can fit a bit of discretionary work into their existing stories. You can polish up the performance when you first code it.

Almost every employer also has a bunch of things they'd like you to do outside of your stories - mentoring junior developers, recruiting, planning, team building, professional development.

Some employers have SOC2 compliance policies that all changes should be traceable to a documented requirement, so fixes after the change is complete can be a bit more bureaucratic. If the project is behind schedule, the bosses might want you to work on something else instead.

Many developers are given pretty high-spec machines, so they can compile quickly and run weighty IDEs and so on - meaning an issue that's painful for users with 2GB of RAM and 2 CPU cores might be barely noticeable to users with 32GB of RAM and 8 cores.

And of course, some workplace cultures would say if you've 'got your work done' you can do discretionary performance work or you can leave early - and who'd choose performance work over spending time with their loved ones?

Would it really be that hard to just implement some better checks/requirements for people before they are able to buy a gun? Genuinely asking. It seems it's possible to do the bare minimum for letting people drive but somehow not for letting them buy guns.
I mean just a little bit of training should make sure that they know not to drink and be anywhere near their guns.. or to have their guns stored somewhere safe and e.g. unreachable by kids, etc. and not easy to grab.
Cool, now explain how to do it for backspace.

And now explain how anyone can ever turn existing text into a code block if every user action is "modified" to not turn existing text into a code block.

funny enough, lots of pensions are getting into the real estate game. Owning housing give a long-term stable source of revenue (rents), making it a really good investment from a pension policy point of view.
I'm disappointed they didn't also look at the odds of hitting someone, aside from what happens if it does. If it's landing somewhere random within an 800 ft radius, and there are 100 people within that range, how likely is it to hit one of them?

The article mentions it contains information on how the US performs cyberattacks. I'm sure it's fairly easy to make that look very convincing if you're new at the organization. I mean if it just mentions there's an SSL tunnel into an energy company somewhere, are you going to test if it works or consider it juicy enough to sell?
I think this needs to be approached with a throwaway mentality. You setup a proxy, it gets blocked, you setup a new one. I do agree that we cannot know who is reporting them or who is leaking the proxy addresses and ideally it would be great if a few people from within Iran could coordinate these and hand them out to other trusted people and have those share them out to friends/family/etc.

However, I think we shouldn't forget that we have no real way of knowing if any of this works in all regions, what sort of access/blocks people there need to go through to connect to even basic services. So maybe instead of being worried ONLY about these issues (which are more in line with our skill set), we should try and pressure our own elected officials to take some measures, any measures to help people there.

You can setup an Ansible playbook and automate the whole deployment without any issues. Most VPSes cost a few cents a day to run and could serve a lot of people. The technology aspect on our end has never been the bottleneck or the problem, but rather how to disseminate these bits of information to those who need them the most and how to actually stop this from happening yearly/monthly across the world.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you for your efforts, keep it up and if you know people there who can spread information about these solutions, even better! We don't know for sure the restrictions we need to fight through, so it would be great to know more about that... And in the meantime, drop an email if nothing else, to your local representatives/elected officials and ask them to do something, anything at this point, to support people exercising their right to protest. Because it's quickly becoming an optional extra even in the West.

Exactly!

Talking about a subject helps organize it.

> This is why I get into silly arguments on HN in the first place, gotta supplement that reading ;)

Ah, the good old Feynman criterion. You don't understand something until you can explain it to a 6th grader or a HNer ^^

> Reading makes knowledge acquisition easier, but it also decreases the fraction of knowledge that comes bundled with expert 1-on-1.

Experts are scarce, books are cheap.

Also if a bunch of people read a book, it has the same content for everybody. So if people recommend a book and you read it you can be fairly sure that you all read the same thing. But if a bunch of people talk to someone, and they say oh that someone is great, but then they don't like you, or they are in a bad mood, or ... or, you won't really know what's up. (Recently happened to me with a recommendation to a doctor. I'm still fed up with how useless it was to spend money on that doc and how high praise he got.)

> I don't get this weird obsession with dumb screens.

My Apple TV is from the previous generation. Little by little it's losing software support. Should I replace the whole TV, which is still pretty good, when I finally upgrade the device?

The TV turns on when there is an active HDMI signal. The two volume buttons are the only thing I use every time I need it. If the Apple TV remote had volume buttons (like the new ones) I wouldn't need the TV remote at all.

It's not an "obsession". It's rational use of resources. Why does my TV need to be a full computer? If it is, what should I do when Netflix drops support for the application it's running?
And this 3 years is kept up artificially - companes like Meta or, as a colleague of mine who works there now, Github / Microsoft, offer stock packages that they can only use after four years. It's a pair of golden handcuffs; they would move on a lot faster I'm sure if it wasn't for that + the wages offered.

Having Microsoft or Google or Meta on your CV is a very valuable thing to have, regardless of what you actually did there, because they're still perceived as having high standards.
> For me, if Apple claims to make a 20% margin, but then spends all that money and needs to borrow more...

NB that having a large cash reserve and borrowing more money are not mutually exclusive. From a large company's perspective, borrowing money when times are good and money is easy to get are low gives the company a "war chest" to either be able to suddenly invest money quickly should the need arise, or to weather long drawn-out storms, when times are bad and money is hard to get.

EDIT: Apple has around $100B in debt, and around $202 billion in cash reserves; it could pay off its debt tomorrow if it wanted to; but then it would have "only" $100B in cash.
I build open source products and would kill for the kind of detailed and open developer feedback that nhannah just gave you.

Clearly, the UN's definition of war of conquest is too limited, and their perspective has intentionally been turned away from the atrocities and crimes the US has commited towards other countries. It does put the UN's credibility into question.
> As opposed to what platform?

Go.

> programs that were written before Go was even a thing will also benefit

As far as I understand virtual threads, they have a new API for creating them, so older programs will at the very least need some source change and a recompilation in order to use them. Of course, if there's a JVM flag to automatically use virtual threads in place of OS threads, please correct me :)

> Java has out of the doors orders of more “goroutine”-aware code as is, than Go will likely ever will.

I honestly doubt that older code is "goroutine"-aware, as virtual threads are used in a different way than ordinary OS threads. I don't think there's any code that spawned hundreds of thousands of OS threads before, which would be the main benefit of using virtual threads.
I don't really have a well-defined method to do it.

I don’t currently have air quality measurements, but I do have Aqara (not Wifi but Zigbee) temperature and humidity sensors. Zigbee uses less energy (afaik?) than WiFi or BT, and additionally, while there is no arrow, the symbol shows you which way is up, and it fits with the description (ventilation holes at the top).

From what I’m reading, the fact that several sensors measure almost exactly the same values when mounted next to each other, is actually a good sign, correct?
As an exercise I started experimenting with JWT after a colleague told me how great they were.

So i tried to build a simple CRUD webside with authentication using JWT just to practice. The section "Problems with JWT" perfectly explains the issues I had. I think a way too many people just pick up the next random fad and without thinking they start using it.
Nope, it was standard.

okay, explain the parallel construction possibility?

he would have been emailing anyone and the compromised wires picked it up for the FBI to then begin their sting operation?

The FBI still had to do the work, but I think its also plausible that they have a bunch of honeypot email inboxes around. I think since they had to do all the communication as well as the transferring of funds that it's not really parallel construction, at least in any controversial way for evidence collection. They got additional evidence that doesn't need creating a rationale retroactively.

but what do you think happened here?
A glaring error in methane flaring (2022)
I'll try to answer this, though my direct experience is only with Cyclone and Max 10.

The Mister uses the Cyclone V 5CSEBA6U23I7 built on TSMC 28nm. It has 110000 logic elements and also a hard ARM.

These are on Intel 7, so there a significant process improvement.

The smallest Agilex D has the same number of logic elements(1) and the largest has 6x as many (2). Note that Agilex tends to be much more expensive than Cyclone.

Realistic maximum clock rates on the Cyclone V are 50-200MHz, depending on the length of the combinational logic chains. For the Agilex I think that it is more like peak 600MHz. So I would guess say 25% faster and say peak 750MHz?

As to fitting all the logic for n64/PS2, I don't know!

1) Comparing these directly is not quite accurate.

2) https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/docs/progra...
In Bulgaria, there were only two periods (1984-85 and 1990-91) during which electrical supply was interrupted on a planned basis. Rumour has it that the regime was starved for hard currency (US dollars) and was exporting everything it could. As a small kid, I remember spending 2-3 hours in the evening, relying on candles for light. In the rest of the time, electricity was cheap and abundant because the country had an economic profile based on heavy and light industry. Energy efficiency was something unheard of – appliances were power-hungry and inefficient, flats in residence blocks were badly insulated, but heating their home was never an issue for most people.
I had missed the repeal, so these are academic now, however, were relevant back in the day, and were interesting in coalition times.

Voting no confidence path would allow the government to attempt to form another government (with a more unifying leader perhaps?) where there would be another round of votes / haggling till the 14 day limit to carry the confidence of the house. Getting the rebels to vote against the government multiple times over 2 weeks (they would be expelled from the party for the forthcoming election anyway) is extremely hard.

Getting 2/3s to vote against, while requiring more rebels, is politically probably easier, if a smallish minority have infected the party and are acting against the party core, and the opposition are dire. You can probably carry your safe seat and oust the toxic HQ leadership at the same time.

Both paths are effectively impossible. The idea back in the day was that you would just vote to repeal or amend the act, as it was easier than actually fullfilling the criteria of the act.
My initial comment was correcting a factually inaccurate statement regarding CPU performance.

To be fair I do see articles written pointing to the fact that hate groups are using signal or discord, the implication being that such companies are "platforming" those groups.

Looking at fraud statistics the vast majority of them aren't caught.

Look at the VAT fraud in Europe, billions lost, virtually nobody arrested

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_trader_fraud

> Notwithstanding these measures, MTIC fraud remains a problem for the EU. As at November 2018, calculations estimating the annual costs of the fraud range from €20 billion up to more than €100 billion (depending on methodology adopted).[21] An EU Parliament study in October 2018 found that MTIC/carousel fraud is the most damaging type of cross-border VAT fraud with an estimated €50 billion losses on average per year.

France is also hemorrhaging billions through social benefits fraud, they don't even attempt to recover most of it as they don't have the manpower

The problem with companies the size of Meta - and even down to 1/10th the size - is that there's just so many moving parts, it's a day job just to try and figure out how things work and where to implement a change.

It's no wonder that - at least for a while - Google was churning out new products left and right. It allows people to build new stuff instead of have to maintain existing stuff.
