JIT runtimes usually result in (very) slow first execution, and the post in question is specifically about app launch. Responsiveness is not isolated to only after the app has been chugging along for a while.

> Hell, a hot loop in Java can be as fast as C code

Only if the Java code in question is written like C code and not like Java code. Which is sometimes possible, yes, but very very rare, and almost never done.

> and it has support for vector instructions as well if you want to write even faster (and platform-independent) code than you could with only C.

Absolutely nonsense. C compilers are more than capable of cpu-specific vectorization, too. CPU detection at runtime is ancient technology and perfectly compatible with AOT languages. And since offline compilers have the benefit of getting to spend all the time in the world on it, regularly and consistently have much better auto vectorization outputs.

JITs are normally under such a time crunch that it's common for their initial output to be quite mediocre, hence why you end up with multi-level JITs. Which then take even longer before the code stops being slow. Great for benchmarks, but pretty shit in the real world for general app performance.

Now you can sometimes have your cake and eat it too here, such as what Google is doing with cloud profiles on Android to basically run the JIT ahead of time. But that is very far from the norm for JIT'd things.
That implies edge cases like "here's a clip from my camera of a delivery driver or a passerby"; did they consent to have their image shown?
I use this site too, but it's literally piracy. I don't think it should be linked directly on HN.
> So all this coastline should be dunes and park spaces?

If they cannot be safely built upon, sure. Same reason no one builds houses on the edge of Kilauea's active craters. Hurricane-resistant construction is possible, it's just more expensive. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/14/us/hurricane-michael-flor...
Where do you live if you take the money out of the house for retirement? In a practical sense, it’s a cost.
SQL does express relational algebra, but OP is arguing it expresses it poorly, in a cumbersome way. There's nothing foundational about how exactly SQL chooses to express relational algebra, you could imagine many different syntaxes and specific semantics.

I concur, SQL is a liability in many ways.

urban combat is not working for them. but their rockets are working. just you can't conquer using rockets. you need to go door to door in a prolonged war
Yeah, I don't buy this one. "Your site is participating in a phishing campaign, here is an example: $URL" doesn't tell a malicious party anything they didn't already know from the original MS warning.

In fact, I'll go further. MS owns we an explanation why they are warning on any random site. Not only the site's owner.
This whole thing is a way to enrich corporate media and disenfranchise independent journalism.

Joe Rogan or The Young Turks won't be eligible for any of these anti trust exclusions or subsequent payouts. Even though much of America relies on them for political coverage, news and debate.

This whole things is a blatant money and power grab and has nothing to do with increasing the quality of independent, high quality Journalism.
I encountered this, I had a cloud service that I had spun up services on with some DNS records pointing to, and then abandoned. The IP address was then used by malware, but because my DNS pointed to it, my whole domain got blacklisted.
I'd liken it to refusing to leave your house because you're worried a meteor may strike you down. You're giving up a lot for not much reason.
Is the federal government paying out $100B for Ian damages from taxes? Or is most of that being paid by private insurance (or even if paid by federal flood insurance, you have to credit back the flood insurance premiums paid rather than assume it’s all coming from taxes).
I think in principle we could allow

INSERT INTO table1
col_1 = COUNT(table2.col_6),
col_2 = table2.col_4,
col3 = table2.col_5
FROM table2 INNER JOIN ...
It depends on local jurisdiction. In Cape Cod (Massachusetts), for example, any permitted renovations to old structures or construction of new structures requires significant structural updates to comply with a thorough building code meant to help their structures remain inhabitable through and recoverable from storm surge.

Locals complain about it because it's expensive, and because the resulting coastal house on concrete stilts isn't aesthetically pleasing. But it's the only rational thing to do in 2022 if you want sustainable coastal development.

In Florida, where things are more "laissez faire", things may be bit different.
In my experience, OSM data is usually better than Google Maps. The only problem is that Google Maps has the better app.
Human brains are funny. Obviously the absurd part of all of this is people (literally) building their houses on the edge of the ocean and expecting this to not happen.

However because it's all we know, it seems that the real absurdity would be the government designating these sites as 'no-build' zones-- or at least FEMA washing their hands of any damage that should happen to these sites.

This should be a wakeup call that many aspects of our current way of life are unsustainable, not that it's just standard operating procedure to rebuild from the ground up every 20 years only for everything to be washed away again.
Yeah if the entire human race consisted of people playing it safe keeping their head down history books would be very different.

Some become sources for money, others are ideologically prepared to die for the cause and there are even nutcases who are just bored.
But we do know people behind Microsoft are not to be trusted with our privacy... See PRISM and their data collection practices.
Im pretty jealous of this. Huge scale. Seems like it could have much longer expected lifetime than anything else. Great enguneering, awesome to see.
unfortunately, society still need to send someone to see what happen. Newspaper performed this role in past. I am interesting about what will happen when news YouTube channel find there are no more news source.
You're complaining that a site that you went out of your way to block doesn't load?
That's absolutely not coincidental.

As a russian citizen whose family once frequented dinners with mayors of cities, and provincial governors back in nineties, I would say half of russian elites are into numerology/occult, or something equally bizarre.
My intuition would be to test the sample that wikipedia editors do reference rather than the sample they might reference - but I think either methodology is an improvement over "argue about it and then summarize the argument".
DoH alone is not enough due to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication being sent in plain text. Some day ECH (formerly, eSNI) should help with that.
I'm so sick and tired of businesses abusing my trust and/or not publishing their security breaches that I'm using plus ('+') email addresses everywhere, i.e.:

my_account+site_address@example.org

for regular interactions, or:

my_account+site_address-current_date@example.org

for one-off interactions.

Won't help with historical abuses/data breaches but it'll certainly be invaluable in the future.
Exactly. That's the idea.

They should be allowed to live there as long as they want to fund it.
I think this is pretty well researched: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/18/us/womens-march-russia-tr...

Two important points:

1. I do agree that calls of "Russian inteference!!" tend to be overblown. While I think it's clear there was Russian interference, I think it's also a way to minimize, for example, the real underlying discontent that was present "below the surface" and instead just blame the Russians.

2. That said, I think the evidence is pretty clear that from Russia's perspective, given how much they invest in these Internet propoganda tools, that they view it as an effective channel. And yes, opposing governments have always had propaganda arms, I think the big difference now is that it is much easier to obfuscate the source of that propaganda than it was in the pre-Internet era.
I second Kaguya. The same blog//author wrote a detailed article about the production challenges of the third season: https://blog.sakugabooru.com/2022/06/30/kaguya-sama-love-is-...
Wrong on both counts.

The CIA has a blank check and does whatever the fuck they want. Much of it opposed by most Americans if they ever find out about it.
Some people play video games.

Some people want to use the Adobe suite on user upgradable hardware.

If you come out of your bubble you'll see there's plenty of reasons to still use Windows (typing this in Firefox running on Fedora, FWIW).
Yes, poster needs to talk with a lawyer. Ideally, a company would do this on Day One of the situation.

And keep all the data you can (from Web, marketing, ads, etc.), to try to figure out and show how much this is costing you. "And here's where the hockey stick snapped in half."
I mean, if Valve was just a deli or a corner store sure. It is very likely one of the most profitable-per-employee companies in the history of the world, and probably in the running for one of the most valuable privately-held companies in the world too. We also know Gabe adores making money, so... I think it to be very unlikely it just gets passed to a kid, but who knows.

Being private, we also don't really know how much of Valve Gabe actually owns - there may be other sizeable stakeholders with a say too.
Nice job, this will be useful to many, I think. The duckdb sure seems to have a knack for figuring out what their audience needs.
If melanin protects against ionizing radiation, does that apply to humans as well?

And does that mean darker-skinned human beings are better suited for space travel?
While traveling I've used my own VPN hosted at home to provide additional security.

It allows me to trust only my ISP instead of every ISP in various coffee shops.
Is this life hedonically adapted to live on $450K sustainable? I would prefer the social system of Germany, France etc where there are safety nets for me and my family.
Yes it does, when you go in edit mode :-)
Is the conclusion that housing should not be built where Sandy’s damages occurred? That seems...unreasonable.
75 years of history disagree with you. Unless you believe the public told the CIA to arm the Mujahideen, overthrow Allende, invade Panama, recruit Nazis, traffic drugs - should I go on?
As has already been said, there's a chance that you are compromised and don't know. Obviously keep trying to contact MS, but in the mean time I'd make as much sure as you can that they don't have a legitimate beef.

If you're willing to share more details about your site such as your tech stack, we can probably give you more specific advice beyond "check your logs for weirdness and hire a consultancy firm that deals with breach detection," though that is good advice.

For what it's worth I went through something similar to this not too long ago, so I know how maddening it is. My client never found any breach (though I did find some PHP library CVE's that could have conceivably been chained together to wreak some havoc), but I ended up rebuilding their prod environment clean and the flag went away on it's own after a couple days, probably because whatever malware was in there had disappeared.
Florida has strict building codes for places that are within the wind zone (so basically the bottom half of the peninsula). Miami Dade has even stricter rules. However, this only applies to newer houses. Ft Meyers (the worst hit area0 had lots of houses that were built pre-Andrew, which was the event that drove the increase in building codes.
You assume police experience anything that can be called legal liability. There is rarely any consequence for abuse of power by police, because for the most part the people tasked with investigating any such abuses are either police or people who have a vested interest in keeping police happy.

So they keep any data they can and hide any data that makes them look bad. It's always useful to them to point out the kid they just shot might have stolen a pack of gum in the past.
This is why well-regarded justice systems don't disclose anything about why they arrested someone and are jailing them indefinitely. It'd give criminals too much of an edge otherwise, and would surely be unworkable and lead to violent anarchy in short order.
Yes, 1000x this.

It is frustrating to be sending piles of money to these states every year, which they then waste on political stunts like flying legal immigrants to other states, instead of taking care of their citizens, or maybe investing in climate hardening.

And then they're completely unprepared for cold weather, hot weather, wet weather, dry weather, ... and say things like "Nobody knew ___ could be so complicated."

I really don't mind my tax dollars going to these states, but I don't want my tax dollars to be wasted, or worse yet, spent to hurt people on purpose.
TikTok politics: Candidates turn to it ‘for better or worse’
Yeah, but the point is addressing modes fuse addition and multiplication and using the result, so there's no opportunity to check anything after the operations.
Public wifi, assuming you don't send any personal info to "sign in" to the public wifi is more anonymous than a vpn that has your name/address/etc.
People who live on Cape Coral are going to have to internalize the fact that they fell for a real estate swindle, they are partly or mostly at fault, and their own personal financial situation will be impacted.

People in the Pacific states and the northeast are going to need to internalize that it isn't OK to use the Sun Belt as a relieve valve for their NIMBY policies, and the federal government might even need to take measures to disincentivize those states from exporting their populations to Gulf Coast swamps.
Your isp is legally resident in the country most likely to want to spy on you. There are also very few isps per country, so it's less work for the attacker to cover everyone they care about.

There are vast numbers of vpns, so total coverage is impossible. They are also very likely to be in a different legal jurisdiction so it's non trivial to do.

So, yes, you have, by making yourself a harder target despite having the same amount of centralisation on your part
This is simply not true. Safety net provides basic amenities and not a desired or extravagant life style. And the United States is still one of the better countries in the world when it comes to social safety net. Those who have witnessed poverty and true inequalities around the world can attest to this.

Do Americans make uneducated and wrong choices? Yes, they do. Like any human being. Do Americans have inflated expectations of what is owed to them due to entitlement? Yes, they do. Are Americans manipulated and gaslit by politicians as are other citizens of the world? Yes, they are.

But we have plentiful and cheap food. Gas is cheaper than most countries in the world. Energy and connectivity is accessible to all. Some of the best tech and solutions that make the world a better place is exported from the United States. There is a social security program for the most vulnerable. But the greatest strength of United States is that the country offers opportunities and a chance to ascend socially/economically.

The best part is that the potential for America to become the best country in the world is literally limitless. Just rein in the politicians and get back to being being what we are good at…creating and managing capital for bettering the country and exporting the tech/know how.

We shouldn’t aspire to be Scandinavia or China or Europe. Often the romanticizing is about being old White Europe..which is embarrassing. It pretty much throws light on the demographic that is creating this narrative of America being deficient. This in turn has created a defensive resistance from other demographic sections of the population that doesn’t have Western European roots.

America has to stand on its own. (The only growth model we should follow/learn from..as should all nations in the world..is the Singapore Model. Lee Kuan Yew was a true visionary) And not try to emulate any other nation because no other country is close to our land mass size or population size. Or GDP. The list goes on. America cannot permit the turkeys bring the elephant down.
All new construction in Sanibel, FL (which got hit hard by Ian) is required to have one floor of "sacrificial space" above which finished living structure can be built. In most homes this is a garage or above-ground storage room with no drywall, and all electrical connections at least several feet off the floor. This doesn't make storm surge cost-free and we have yet to see whether it was enough for Ian, but I doubt the storm surge reached more than 6ft.
This is terrible. I have no experience with it myself, but if OSM wants community contributions, they need to make sure that people feel welcome to contribute. Lambasting people for getting something wrong is not helpful. Thanking them and advising them how to do it better next time would be much better.
Math.gl – A collection of math modules for Geospatial and 3D/WebGL
Under that rule, what exactly is your plan for replacing all the life-critical logistics infrastructure across the entire Gulf coast?

Just abandon the whole thing as a sacrifice zone? How exactly are you going to do any international shipping? Get goods down the Mississippi? Refine half the gasoline the country uses?

People don't live in hurricane zones because it's fun. People live there because that's where the jobs are. Many of them aren't bullshit jobs, and are far more critical to life and limb than yet another dogwalking mobile app.
I'd also love to hear from an expert, but my understanding is that building codes make some accomodations for a general expectation of flooding (like no basements allowed), but the region has a huge safety net in FEMA and other disaster relief funds, and so for any given house it makes more financial sense to build more cheaply and then use relief funds to rebuild when the disaster actually comes.

This likely is making for a good deal of misaligned incentives, where public disaster relief expenses could be much less if building codes were raised in these areas, but such change is likely to be slow in coming and we should expect the status quo to continue for some time.
The parallel is to say Bloomberg journalists are tech experts because “it’s a tech company”. The journalists are just journalists
"So all this coastline should be dunes and park spaces?"

Yes. That makes sense to me.

What's the downside?
There is a huge difference between "don't use the space at all" and "don't build buildings that are unsuited for the location".

There is also a difference between "my roof was damaged by high wind" repairs and "my house and everything I own floated away due to storm surge" repairs. I'm not trying to speak for OP, but typically the style of "2 and then done" plans are for the latter style of damage (where the damage is into the low-mid 6 figures), not the former (where damage is low-mid 5 figures).
Why does any organization keep 90% of the data that they have. It's all a liability. Either they are required to keep it by law, or they are making money selling it or mining it for others.
There is another contender in infrasql realm called cloudquery[1]. Steampipe has been around for very long. Mind you the steampipe has an AGPL license.

The timeframe varies widely based on the shape of the object and the altitude. There are something like 5 orders of magnitude pressure difference between an object at 100km and one at 500km which is the difference between deorbiting in days vs years.
Just to probe. COBOL doesn't have many (if any) updates to it, though. And there are no big data architectures being built around it. Equating "Java is Dead" to the same meaning as "COBOL is Dead" doesn't seem like a legitimate comparison.

But I do get your points and don't necessarily disagree with them. I just don't see this as "legacy" technology, but maybe more like "mature"?
FCC approval is required to communicate with a (US-based) satellite in space, so effectively they can apply rules like this one. It's less of a power grab/nefarious plot and more a utilitarian kind of thing - the FCC has historically been the only agency that has authority to exert this pressure, so the work falls on them. It's admittedly odd that it's not the FAA or Space Force, but that's how it is.
Launch time doesn’t matter. The only time I launch vscode is when I have to reboot to apply updates. Even that is getting more and more rare.
And lots of prefab homes.
It seems like, at least, converting a flat JSON record to CSV (or vise-versa) should be a one-liner in lots of cases.

Usually I want CSV, it is because I'm playing around with data on the command line and doing grep/cut/and so on. If I has something that output json... that miller tool is supposed to be good for this sort of stuff I think. https://miller.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
I think it depends on the state. Some prohibit drunkenness, others, you can't even be in an establishment where alcohol is served.
If you never intend to monitor them systematically, absolutely!

If you're a bit serious you can at least impose date, time to the millisecond, pointer to the source of the log line, level, and a message. Let s be crazy and even say the message could have a structure too, but I can feel the weight of effort on your shoulders and say you ve already saved yourself the embarassement a colleague of mine faced when he realized he couldnt give me millisecond timestamp, rendering a latency calculation in the past impossible.
There were idiots on YouTube already predicting the russian invasion back in autumn last year. You didn't have to be the CIA to see that it was going to happen as soon and the roads dried.
Everything You Need to Know About Data Breaches with Troy Hunt
I only took history in uni back then, but both science and history courses were similar. First-year courses were seminar/overviews, or math-light science courses. As I progressed through the system, the science courses sprouted math while the math courses became too difficult to consider. The history courses became more and more specific to an area (European vs. Asian vs. US-ian) or to a time (Middle Ages, post-1700). By my last year, things like quantum chemistry were the subject matter (and I had run through my electives by then).

Perhaps words vs. equations is a distinction that might be preferable. In science, there were memorization (organic chem nomenclature) or mathematics (physical chemistry). Physics went from sliding wooden blocks to thinking about time dependent forms of what's being covered in chemistry. English involved a review of the motivation of characters (took a year of Shakespere), "is Hamlet mad?", etc. History was similar, with "was Hitler unique or inevitable?", discussion of the post-WWI issues that led to the mess that was the 20th century, etc. You can call this larger picture, but the details were critical - why rather than what or when.

And, to hold their departmental funding, non-major STEM courses were at the level of "red stars are cooler than blue stars" (Astronomy for poets). Perhaps calculus is now assumed to be taught pre-Uni, but it was 1st-year materials with derivatives in the fall and integrals in the spring. And the history courses had a 5-10 book reading list (Orwell is real pertinent) while English had the Pelican Shakespere.
It's highly suspect if he can mobilise 1-2 millions. The latest mobilisation sought 300k and is already causing civil unrest and hundreds of thousands of people fleeing Russia.
Wikipedia is popular because people will almost always choose cheap, readily available crap over better quality things that have even a small barrier to access. For a nonprofit to build something as cheap and expansive as Wikipedia, they really have to rely on people with very unusual psychology or people with agendas, and their first batch really set the tone.
