Interesting claim/model. Can someone cite some real data or at least give an anecdote about this?

Are there IT workers who earn ~100 USD a month? (Okay, thinking about it there must be. Freelancers who are not really experienced, or working in very local very low productivity companies.)

Aren't there already small hosting providers regionally who price accordingly? (We tried to run one here in Hungary around 2009-2010, but there was no point. Free stuff provided by giant companies is a much better value, so the local market is composed of otherwise non-typical clients who actually want local hosting with something extra, all in all not a great business. Prices are very low, competition is fierce, etc.)
Maybe California is just so big and diverse that they have to do this...

I always found whole system so weird. Living in country with plates staying same for whole lifetime of vehicle(or at least until it is moved to "veteran vehicle" status, but that brings new limitations). Just get pay the tax online and handle MOT and everything is fine.
Yep, bitten by this one on repeat myself. definitely a WTF moment each time.
Switch to light beer, and then start alternating light beer with non-alcoholic beer, then have two non-alcoholic beers for every one light beer, and then just drink only non-alcoholic beer. Then drink sparkling water from a can. Then drink sparkling water from a bottle. Then just drink water.
The FED does pay an interest rate on bank reserves, but the FED sets that rate themselves (this is the IORB rate). One hopes, with all the economists they have on staff, they would not set that rate to such a value that would lead them to insolvency.

Regarding long term treasuries and ABS ... it will be much more convenient for the FED if the FED just held them to maturity, and this is probably what they would do. So I agree with you I very much doubt that they would unwind QE completely.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing and all the best!!

Don't just stop, substitute it with something else that gives you a good feeling.

This is (apparently, looking at the patch; maybe there's something I am missing that is outside the scope of this one patch) such a ridiculously small amount of sufficiently trivial code that this doesn't really feel at all like a "win" to me if there is even a single person out there with an a.out binary.

It seems like you've no idea how WebAuthn works, or why it's such an important improvement. That's fine, but probably better to just tell people "I know nothing about this" rather than pretend to know enough to give a recommendation.

The "threat model" your link proposes is "It's a web site". For which WebAuthn is more appropriate and covers all the issues listed.

That would mean updating the blog post every time any of the browsers starts supporting any of the discussed features. Probably better to defer to MDN or Caniuse, which are already good for that purpose.
It is understandable to be skeptical of an increasing medicalized world, but a society-wide “fixing our lifestyles” isn’t an answer for people who need treatment now.

For example, prolonged screen use is linked to myopia. Would it make sense to say “glasses are a panacea, but the real question is: is the world ready to rethink computer-based careers?” Sure, maybe it would be better for our health if we all were on our computers a lot less, and there are probably deep-rooted societal problems at the root of our health issues, but… I need glasses.

Establish a habit that trumps drinking.

I started playing the piano a few years ago - generally practise in the evening. I read somewhere that recall is affected by alcohol, so have to avoid alcohol until later.

This keeps me from having a glass of wine or a gin and tonic in the early evening. By the time I've finished playing it's often a bit too late to bother.

I've never been an alcoholic, but without this mild deterrent I would probably have at least one drink most nights.

I live in a rural village and yes, I feel like I'm missing out, but it's totally worth it. But I live in a pretty luxurious house, big, with a pool and chickens. I also live with my family.

It all depends on what you want in life.

I'm in my 20s and I love to live here, it's really quite, relaxing and if I ever want to go to the city (small city, mind you), it's just 15 mins away by car. If I want to go to a bigger city, it's around 2 to 3 hours away, which I tend to do once a month or every two months to visit my team.

A few things to note is that I have to have a car here, there's no metro and the bus system is pretty lacking.
I think what you are looking here is more into business process automation or something in that range. I was checking out (https://www.crownrms.com/uk/services/digital-transformation/) and (https://www.laserfiche.com/ecmblog/what-is-business-process-...) to get a grasp on what these companies are offering to SME that can help us streamline our business more, but it was so confusing without getting into the details. I would suggest asking for a demo especially on your use case so we could actually know how this technology will be applied into our daily business.
Thanks!

Yes you can (and should) also intercept at kernel level, but the kernel can't tell which of your app's dependencies is responsible for the call, only the application knows that.
Pragzip actually decompress in parallel and also access at random. I did a Show HN here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32366959

indexed_gzip https://github.com/pauldmccarthy/indexed_gzip can also do random access but is not parallel.

Both have to do a linear scan first though. The implementations however can do the linear scan on-demand, i.e., they scan only as far as needed.

bzip2 works very well with this approach. xz only works with this approach when compressed with multiple blocks. Similar is true for zstd.

For zstd, there also exists a seekable variant, which stores the block index at the end as metadata to avoid the linear scan. indexed_zstd offers random access to those files https://github.com/martinellimarco/indexed_zstd

I wrote pragzip and also combined all of the other random access compression backends in ratarmount to offer random access to TAR files that is magnitudes faster than archivemount: https://github.com/mxmlnkn/ratarmount
The mild sedative effect of beer is partly due to the hops. You can get a similar effect from alcohol free beer ... or hop tea. I've had some fuggle hops left over from home brewing and turned them into tea, with a bit of lemon and honey it makes a delicious "downer" with a similar drowsy feeling like after a beer.

There seems to be a big enough difference that Ars Technica felt they needed to warn users that they could not trust apps from inside Google's walled garden.

>“Joker is one of the most prominent malware families that continually targets Android devices,” Zscaler researcher Viral Gandhi wrote in last week’s post. “Despite awareness of this particular malware, it keeps finding its way into Google’s official application market by employing changes in its code, execution methods, or payload-retrieving techniques.”

The best advice is to be extremely conservative in the apps that get installed in the first place. A good guiding principle is to choose apps that serve a true purpose and, when possible, choose developers who are known entities. Installed apps that haven’t been used in the past month should be removed unless there’s a good reason to keep them around.

An excellent question.

The short answer is "not a lot" - primarily because I think it's a conversation best had in person, not via forums. It's hard to create the nuance such a discussion would need when typing.

But, perhaps more to the point, it's not veterans that worry me. I suspect (as I think do you) that many are disillusioned with the real outcomes of the war. Just like those who served in Vietnam etc.

No, the people who worry me are the "politicals". Those who see _any_ criticism of the military as being anti-troops. (As noted above, this is expressly the outcome the military-industrial-complex has been working on forever.) And the messaging is so successful that, on either side of the isle, it's basically political suicide to "vote against the military".

While reducing the spending on the military may garner some support from those who have actually served (although I doubt in significant percentages) - it's the blow-back from those not actually in the military (military families, and everyone else) which is most concerning. There are not so supportive as those who are not actually doing any of the work or in any of the danger.

I do enjoy Beat Saber

Beat Saber is one of the most popular VR games. The VR world and the real world are locked together, so everything feels right. Anything that breaks that lock is at least annoying, and nauseating to some. This is a big problem.

With omnidirectional treadmills, it gets somewhat better. Phia, who has The Virtual Reality Show on Youtube, has tried some of them.[1] Phia is a VR native. She's grown up using VR. She makes videos about VR while in VR with full body tracking. Worth seeing critiques of VR from someone who really gets it.

Weird is that there doesn't seem to be a focal point, a master opinion that people cannot make any concessions to. Instead it seems to be just about being in the correct team.
Strange, never had a problem with this. If I need to reference non-pointer I just use key(append(foo, items[k])) but i find it weird that the print example is not working since in loop the value is passed by copy, just like everywhere else in go, so it should work correctly. as for pointer, again, pass by copy. I see no problem here, it either never bit me in my ass or i figured it out soon in my Go journey.

> One beer?

Actually, yes. If you are someone who only drinks one beer, then your low tolerance means even that single drink will leave you leaving crummy afterwards. Not a full-on "oh dear god please don't mention eggs around me" crummy, but just groggy, headache-y, and so on.

This is me. I only ever drank maybe a glass of wine or one beer every couple of months, and finally realized it was easier just dropping down to effectively zero.

Hear, hear! People fetishize books way too much. Most are, indeed, crap.
This thread shows a phenomenon that I've noticed a lot of lately: that many smart people turn absolutely loopy when it comes to the topic of central banking. There's nothing quite like it, and I'm not sure how to explain it. The topic seems to make conspiracy theorists out of otherwise very reasonable people.

Good to see the highest voted comments are sane, but the sanity ratio is pretty low compared to other topics.
Rob, i mean this with the greatest respect, but when someone approaches you with a worry about drinking too much, saying 'have you tried just drinking less, i don't drink as much as you and its fine' is really truly awful advice to give.
Yes, taking the address of a local variable is exactly what it's doing. But Go's compiler (and garbage collector) ensures it's safe to do that. The compiler will allocate on the stack where possible, and the heap where necessary, invisible to you. This is all very normal in Go.

I'm not sure prefixing your comment with "WTF" and your 10-years-ago dismissal helps the discussion here. Yes, as we've learned, this was probably the wrong decision, but it's not hard to see why it was done that way originally (C# made the same decision), and now they're having a reasonable technical discussion to try to solve it. And -- even though I've been bitten by this several times myself -- it's not a terribly common occurrence.
I think that the nuclear proliferation cat is out of the box. I wouldn't be surprised if even European countries are already looking to acquire nuclear capabilities.
Illustrations were created using a vector graphics engine, and then rendered as a bitmap. The brushes looked 'painterly', but they were editable and scalable. So it was possible to take a postage-stamp sized picture and scale it up to billboard size without any loss of resolution.

Watercolor paintings that were actually vectors? Yes, that's exactly what it offered!

There was also some architectural trickery that enabled huge pictures to be loaded into the application on machines with limited RAM.

I use 4K screens. Virtualbox is literally unusable at those resolutions. I have to run VMs at 1080p and upscale them in Virtualbox. At 4k, simple actions such as opening the start menu take several seconds.

VMWare does this much better, but is a pain to run on up-to-date kernels.

The situation sucks, is what I'm saying.
If you look very closely, the model does have wrists. (Most noticeable on the models left arm — that is the viewer’s right.)

Either way, the shoulder and elbow joints don’t move much during rope skipping, and no matter how it’s recorded, the motion capture data that was used for training should reflect that.

My best guess is that the model has picked up on the tiny arm motions that are present in rope skipping and wildly exaggerated them for some reason.

I'm not sure what you want to quit. You kind of seem to imply that drinking as a social thing is what you enjoy, but not being intoxicated by alcohol. If that is what you meant, I'd recommend giving a shot to non-alcoholic drinks. There is nowadays a wide range of alcohol-free wines, beers, mocktails and even a ginger shot is nice.

If you mean that the first kick of alcohol intoxication is what you enjoy, but not further, then it is more difficult. In that case it sounds like you are (slowly) on your way towards alcoholism, and I would seek some professional help there.
I used to ddink a lot in social occasions but would always feel sici after so I just decided to stop. I still have a glass of wine or a small beer ecery now and then and the key is to not beat yourself about it
This part:

> has this to say about autonomous cars: “It’s a scam. These companies have squandered tens of billions of dollars.”

Hotz says that companies have used lots of money, so to me it looks like he is referring to the companies and not the technology.

But reading a bit more, it's all to vague and the writer of the article made it really difficult to understand what's really being said here. It can be interpreted multiple ways.
I have said this before, but a source->source compiler is a very handy thing to have. A loop construct in chez or guile scheme would probably translate into something tail recursive. You could then macro-expand and optimize the loop to the code that is then compiled into lower level.

I have been in situations where I have had to expand a macro to figure out what is going on. Not having it in a situation like this (where a for loop is obviously just a goto or a tail call) is usuallly a pain in the ass. If it was translated into the same language it would also be easier to define what it should translate to.
Was I supposed to discriminate?
>the problem is most people do not have the expertise and/or time it takes; some trust in so called experts is ok to a degree.

I think the issue is that far too many people have blind trust in "experts". It is okay to admit to yourself that you just don't know enough about something to make an informed decision. You can hazard a guess on how likely something is to be true based on the opinions of "experts", but your confidence in that guess should never be very high for something you don't understand. Unfortunately people like to be confident, and are very susceptible to suggestion and social pressure, and therefore routinely place blind trust in a variety of "experts" in every field from medicine to government to finance. Very often these experts are either partly wrong, completely wrong and/or or spreading misinformation/disinformation due to some hidden agenda (political, economic, social). The end result is large masses of people who are very confident about things which are wrong and/or distorted (which ends up being directly reflected in the quality of our elected leaders and society as a whole).
It's not like there is aversion overall; you're seeing two effects:

1. people being really excited by Rust, learning Rust, using it for hobby projects, rewriting things in Rust etc.

1.1. sometimes the excitement has downsides - people get carried way, they get too preachy, they exaggerate how good it is, they insist on using Rust in places where it doesn't belong, they refuse to listen to criticism, they bring it up any time programming languages are discussed, they start acting a bit cult-ish

2. as a result of 1.1, when a positive Rust post comes up some people will have a negative reaction. Sometimes it's negative in a reasonable way that counteracts the exaggerated excitement and sometimes it's a more general feeling of "oh not this again".

So some people have aversion to Rust some of the time, there's still plenty of other people who like Rust or don't care too much about it either way.
You don't need to touch, you can just rub them on a pointy surface, like the edge of a table.

It is, other JVM implementations tend to also have their own extensions, for example J9 had AOT for years, long before OpenJDK started to play with it.

It also had support for a special kind of value types (packed objects) with are seen as intrisics by its JIT.

> because dogs eat a lot.

Uncooked meat does not have near as many digestible calories density wise as cooked grains. Of course it would be a lot harder for them to become overweight, but the food cost would be tremendous. Remember that obligate carnivores that weigh a lot, like tigers, are incredibly expensive to feed.
I think it comes down to whether the complexity of TeX/LaTeX is essential or accidental. My feeling is, more than half of the complexity is essential (typesetting is, like human grammar, full of obscure rules and exceptions), and therefore, it simply doesn't pay off to anyone to rewrite the system (not to mention, the more essential complexity is in a given problem, the more accidental complexity you're going to accrue).

There has been unsuccessful attempts to remove the accidental complexity, like Lout. It is very hard. If you limited your requirements to "do not have complete control over typesetting", as I suggested, then lot of essential complexity (of complex typesetting rules) could be converted to accidental complexity (simplified typesetting), and then such a system would be easier to create.

Though such a thing probably already exists in systems like LyX, MS Word, LibreOffice. They can do typesetting with vastly simplified rules (especially of equations).
