It is hard to ensure that a website would survive for 30 years without requiring maintenance. There are too many components involved in running a website and I think it is quite likely that at least one of them would break if no maintenance is done. I think a breakage is especially more likely if it is a personal website. For example, the domain name may expire, the server hosting the website may go down due to a hardware malfunction in your own server or a payment failure for your server provider, TLS certificates (if any) may fail to renew due to a breaking change in a certificate management tool, etc.

But I think it is possible for the HTML pages of a website to survive. If this can be done, then the website can survive in its original form even when it may not be available in its original domain name.

Here are some things I have done to increase the odds that my personal website would survive for several decades even if the primary website disappears some day:

- The entire website is a collection of static HTML pages.

- All internal links and path references, are relative. In fact, the paths to CSS files, images, videos, audios, etc. are also relative.

- The HTML pages do not loaded any resource from another domain.

- Since I use MathJax on my website to render mathematical content, MathJax is bundled within the website. Further, MathJax is loaded into the pages that need it using relative links only. (This is an example of the previous two points.)

- Stick to text as much as possible. Most pages are just text marked up with HTML. Use images, videos, audios, etc. only when absolutely necessary. Similarly, load MathJax using a relative link only on those pages that have mathematical content.

- Test that if the website is copied to a directory on the local filesystem, one can still navigate the website locally using a web browser. This is possible due to using relative links/paths (instead of absolute ones).

- While the primary copy of the website is hosted at a personal domain name I have registered, I publish a mirror copy on my GitHub account via GitHub pages. Should the primary domain name disappear someday (which did happen once for a few days due to a sinkhole incident), the mirror would still be available via GitHub pages as long as GitHub continues to maintain their service.

Finally, and I don't do this, but one could consider http://web.archive.org/ as well as IPFS to archive the pages of one's website to ensure that tertiary copies of the website also remain on the web.
I see a big mix of positive and negative in the comments, I’m gonna take a slightly different tact, and say I’m extremely bullish on the GPU market in the near-to-mid term on the consumer side. Obviously, a coming recession and relaxing of sales due to pandemic/lockdown pull ahead will probably dampen sales, but having 3 vendors taking 3 separate approaches to their designs is great for competition and consumer choice. We have Nvidia at the high end with monolithic chips probably delivering the highest performance in most/all areas, especially gaming. AMD is going with a chiplet architecture that should allow them to stay in the same ballpark of (non-raytracing) performance at a lower price. And finally we have Intel coming in at the low end with cards that seem like (once all the driver issues are sorted out) are going to be adequate for gaming, maybe even offer best in class price/performance in certain cases, and that seem to be also targeting productivity as well. They were the first out of the gate with AV1 hardware support, as well what looks like some relatively impressive matrix math units, similar to Nvidias tensor cores.

Overall looking very promising for the next 5-10 years, and Im hoping any potential recession doesn’t cause Intel or AMD to take their foot off the pedal, or in the worst case (more likely for Intel), even scrap the product lines.
I'm all for a lot of state-sponsored things, but a government run dating site sounds like one of the most dystopian ideas I can imagine.

Blaming online dating sites for mental health problems and mass shooting is a new one. I don't discount the feeling of despair that can occur on dating sites for men. However, the experience of a being woman on a dating app is absolutely harrowing, even if you have incredibly low standards and/or are incredibly desirable.
I left in the credit card fees exodus and never came back (unlike most who returned after they rolled back their sudden fee change). There are probably just a handful like me who did not return.
Singapore gov does that (to some extent):

Keep this gatekeeping nonsense to yourself. I met my wife of many years on a dating app. We probably never would have met by chance.
I find it's easier to take action than to resist temptation. So a partial solution might be to look out for goals that make drinking less attractive. Train for a marathon. That might not be great general advice but you're on HN so good chance you'd enjoy the optimization problem and have something (dopamine releasing) to do instead of drink.
Yes now people are paying Disney, Universal, and the media companies directly and most people still get internet from their cable company who raises rates if you don’t bundle with cable.

I would guess that it was possible, just maybe without up to date official headers for new AmigaOS 4.1 features.
Well how about we start a non-profit dating app? I was just wondering how much it could cost to run the backend with todays cloud services. With what Tinder is charging for boosts and subscriptions I feel like they're raking it in. But I've never developed and deployed a fully cloud based app, just used a bunch of their services off and on.

DLSS doesn't alter the results that much, but there is a noticeable "sharpness" to DLSS-upscaled content when you look at screenshots side-by-side with native res. That's probably what they are eluding to by claiming "the final resolved image can look better" with DLSS.

I doubt artists thought about this with the current generation of games. The tech is so new that it was shoe horned into a lot of games, and it has evolved a lot in just a few hardware generations. Going forward, I'm certain artists will give it more consideration, since it is clear now that this is the future of gaming.
An excellent discussion on the matter on the excellent Volts podcast:
https://www.volts.wtf/p/the-extraordinary-potential-value#de...
Agreed. It also seems extremely gross that you're initially pushed to buy Tinder Gold, but then only afterward realise there are still features locked behind Tinder Platinum, and even after that you'll probably spend still more buying packs of boosts and super-likes.

I know they're far from the only game in town, but this really feels like the behaviour of a monopoly entity that knows it can do basically whatever.
Has nothing to do with my point. The government required some businesses to shut down. They didn't force you to take out college loans.

If you want to say there shouldn't be loans for college or whatever that is fine. The fact is, the US is not in that situation.
I think the only way to get that would be plain HTML with all CSS embedded directly into the page, which you then get hosted by the Internet Archive.

In terms of working in future browsers you probably use pretty much any spec-compliant CSS. They pretty much never remove anything.

I think about this a lot.

When I build a project, I want it to be as low maintenance as possible. So that even if it never becomes a big commercial success, I can keep it running indefinitely.

The approach I took for my latest project is that I wrote a new static site generator in Python. I could have used Jekyll or something, but all static site generators I tried are much too complex for my liking.

Some of the characteristics of my generator are:

# File based

The content, templates and assets are stored as files on disk. No database is involved.

# Single script

Turning templates, content and assets into a website is not a complex thing. Basically it just means some templating of the content according to the templates. The python script I wrote for it is around 200 lines of code and offers me all the flexibility I need.

The html files it outputs stand a good chance to still function in 2053, just like info.cern.ch still functions today.

Will the Python script still function in 2053? Maybe not with the Python interpreters that ship with the OS, but it will probably still be possible to get a python 3 interpreter.

And it will probably not take more than a few hours to update it to Python 17 or whatever is the current version then.
In the 2000s and early 10s, I would tell friends that $1000 is all you need to spend for a complete tower of hardware - at least, a sweet spot of performance and value. $250 was /pricey/ for a GPU in 2005.

But to be fair, like cars from the 80s to now, they do a lot more these days. I never installed a Physx processor for Crysis but now that's on the GPU.
Simply, change to Linux. or at least, try a multi boot setup. I can play nearly everything that its on Steam on Linux, and avoid touching that spyware that has become Windows.
> I think I'm getting old, but I can't for the life of me get excited about this 450W behemoth.

Then don't buy it?

These are flagship cards. It's like the $100,000 Corvette in Chevy's lineup. It's fun to watch the reviews and see on the showroom floor, but most people aren't in that enthusiast market segment. They're going to the dealership for the $40,000 Camaro or the $30,000 Colorado truck because those get the job done for them at a reasonable price.

If you're an enthusiast and this is your thing, you save up the money and buy the flagship. It's a small audience, but the product is there for those who want it. If you're a casual gamer, you get something like a 3060 and it works great as long as you're not maxing out settings and trying to play everything at 4K.

I honestly don't understand all of the criticism for these flagship parts. When auto makers release a ridiculous flagship car, everyone cheers it on and understands the purpose. When hardware makers release a flagship part, it seems everyone wants to criticize it for existing.
Thank you :) that is the main point of it, to show people what is possible and inspire them to create.
go.mod provides a way to introduce the new behaviour incrementally. The key point is the dependencies can (and already do) declare different go versions in their go.mod file. When everything is compiled, each module is compiled with the behaviour that applies to its own declared go version. So even if you update your go.mod go version to take advantage of this (soon to be) new behaviour, you can continue to use existing deps happily without worrying they will break.
amazing/terrifying etc.....

It's interesting many people's reactions to that of Jobs are "he wasn't like that", "doesn't sound what he would say" etc..... (1) a dead person, freaky, (2) countering people's biased "memory" of someone from their past.... what we pick and choose to remember... going up against something generated (with it's own biases/problems) from the content that person produced over years and years...what seemingly should be a really decent representation of their -isms/personality.
Probably not any one thing - but a combination of things:

1. In a work situation once, I was embarrassed while out drinking with the 'team' at my behaviour - not because I made an ass of myself, but I 'went along' with a mean characterization of someone in my group that I never would have done when sober. I decided that wasn't me - and I vowed to NEVER drink with people I didn't respect, or make myself 'vulnerable' to that kind of behaviour.

2. Not drinking 'about something' - like a country song 'drinking because my gal left me' but usually if I drank it was because of stress, it was an escape, a response to painful stimuli, and not a 'joyful enhancement of activity' that it can be in moderation. And finding what I was 'drinking about' (hate your job, feel trapped, an excuse to 'get drunk' etc.) and work on THAT instead.

3. Feeling fat and bloated, and hungover is not something I want to put up with as I get older.

4. Adopting a 'gourmand' vs. 'glutton' mindset - consciously choosing a good experience, vs. the 'mass of experience' - i.e. a shot of a new whiskey enjoyed, vs. a case of Labatt's, etc.

5. Worrying about the cumulative effects of drinking over time - how will you 'know' that you're damaged your liver, brain, memory irreparably? Scary.

So the end result is - in a social (especially work situation) I'll have a drink, but find I rarely finish it - everyone else is on their third or fourth and I'm still enjoying my first. I have a clear head, can enjoy things, etc.
Thanks a lot, I don't know why I haven't been able to find it..
Good for you. Doesnt change the fact they are shady and made to mainly exploit people's weakness for money.
You cannot really blame them, it is natural to question absolute authorities and centralised power.

And indeed, this is a place for tech people and devs who cant be experts in economy and banking.

I worked in banks as well as dev, the banks are doing dirty things under a legal umbrella, dont think of them as saints, all the wealth they have came from somewhere.

Now, a central bank, I am fine with that, it is important to keep the economy stable.
They cannot always please everyone and they need to be politically independent, or not influenced. The politians understand that, most of the voter s do not.

I imagine in 10 years it'll be the same. Firstly because if you can't get "enough" good content to model, you will have to manually shape the models to make it sound authentic - and that isn't AI, that's editing. But secondly because humans are very good at recognizing authentically human interactions, and algorithms simply aren't good enough to generate all the nuances we identify as authentic.

If you want to fake someone out, use a regular person, and clean it up in post.
From the demo[0], It seems to do really well, until you turn your head even just a tiny bit. At which point it stops detecting.

Correct. The subsidies were supposed to go for retrofitting builds, covering employment costs due to lower demand, and to cover costs due to being shut down. All of which were due to government policies.
I don't think you really understand the asset workflow or why artists lovingly draw things. The artist pipeline usually spits out massively over detailed assets. Everything from cuticles to the roughness on scales comes out of an artist's model.

Making a usable asset from that is almost always a task of reduction not iterative addition.
> Because its outside the scope & role of the government

Is it? Governments care very much about what their demographics will be in the future. Governments get involved in trying to modify birth rate. Hooking people up seems like an interesting idea, especially if the government thinks they're going to deal with massively bad demographic shift in the midterm future.
I don't think air transport can ever compete with sea transport on costs and efficiency if you need to move a lot of volume.
Hmm maybe it wasn't a common usage of the name. IIRC some people did call this "currying" in some imperative languages, though never did so in actual FP nor Lisp. You see, clearly this technique here doesn't really have any name.

I also think "currying" and "partial application" kinda-sorta make sense. Unbound variables in a "immediate function" are merely hidden parameters of the function if analyzed semantically. The question is whether you pass them by-ref or by-value.
That's kind of disappointing news. I had a skim through the article and was surprised to find that it's all based on models. There wasn't a single empirical measurement of an installation of either kind. Not that I don't believe in modeling and its usages, but I am going to radically discount the findings of this paper because there was no actual experiment performed here, just fiddling with models.
How many times has it been stolen? This is the only theft I can find any info about.
Different governments have widely different scopes & roles. It's up to society to decide what government shall do.

> I can't even distinguish between RT and non-RT in games like CP:2077

Mostly because fake reflections in triangle-based rendering is convincing enough unless you're looking for it or have just gotten good at spotting it.

It's like bad kerning. If you don't know what to look for, you probably don't notice it or pay it any mind. But once you do, you see it EVERYWHERE. [0]

But I see artifacts of fake reflections in games everywhere. The problem is that most games rely on screen-space reflections which don't work if the reflected object isn't on the screen. So imagine being over water, looking over mountains in the distance, and you see the mountains reflected in the water. But as the camera pans down and the peaks go off screen, suddenly the mountain peaks get cut off in the reflection.

The only way to render a mirror accurately in triangle-based rendering is to effectively use a technique similar to Portal, but then your transform engine has to would twice as hard, since it has to project the scene twice. Even then, you're limited to flat mirrors without taking shortcuts.

Curved objects can't be reflective in triangle-based rendering at all. They fake it well enough by using environment mapping of textures, but then they won't accurately reflect things around them.

Might not be the answer you are looking for, but there are several companies offering APIs to filter content.

E.g. Microsoft has a Vision API. Per https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/cognitive-..., it's $1 per 1000 requests (with the first 5000 being free). They also have PhotoDNA, which is free but does a subset of SFW.

PixLab is another option (https://pixlab.io/cmdls).

Google has an API too (Cloud Vision).

If you go down this path, you'll have to do your own research on which service works best and what you can afford.
This is both impressive and unbearably, unlistenably annoying. I had to stop like 45 seconds in.

It sounds exactly like Rogan interviewing Jobs as generated by an AI from 2022. Definitely nailed that. Ten thousand percent.

It's honestly getting hard for me to justify having a more powerful PC. I have a Threadripper build (3960x) with a 2080 Super, along with 2x 3.5" drives, 2x SATA SSDs, and 3x NVMe drives. The thing draws like 200-250W at idle. Closer to 400-500W under moderate gaming. I'm looking at upgrading to a 4090 since gaming at 4K is pretty "meh" on a 2080. The embargo lifted today and I've been skimming the review: it looks like these cards will draw 500W continuous _by themselves._ So I'd be looking at potentially 700W+ from the wall.

My A/C failed this year and I became acutely aware of just how much heat my current workstation is pumping into my room. Even with the A/C running my room is about 5-10degF hotter than the rest of the house. So for me I'm starting to run into thermal constraints; there's also the noise factor. All my PCIe bandwidth comes at a hefty price: which is that the sTRX4 chipset is actively cooled with a pathetically tiny fan.

Perhaps it's just part of being older and wiser, but I'm starting to be more enthused about the process/efficiency refinements rather than the generational performance leaps. I'm actually thinking about "downsizing" significantly with my 2024-rig. (The threadripper is still a beast though, it will probably get racked in a 4U case as my next home server.)

Who knows though, maybe I'll figure out how to reject the heat outside my domicile and go balls to the wall with a 64c/128t monster. I guess it all depends on if AMD decides to release another HEDT chipset by 2024.
Sharing your desires, sexual preference and all intimate conversions with the government doesn't seem like a good idea.

You could say they can tap into that currently, and that's probably true, but deliberately broadcasting it to them would probably be out of question for many people.

Also, consider what government run IT projects look like. Now mix that with a dating app, perfect recipe for a disaster.
