This avatar-like use of Legal persons is undesirable, fully agree. A major component in international money laundering and criminal enterprises is discovering whose avatar $some_co or $my_foundation belong to. Small jurisdictions, mine included unfortunately, are easy targets for friends-of-friends-of-friends to allow such hidden ownership, and the international community should forbid it both at home and abroad.

> I think disasters are always going to call for mass donations from the old-fashioned blood producers.

Maybe I’m parroting an incorrect bar top factoid, but isn’t it usually the case that they need the blood before the disaster? That when events like 9/11 occur and people rush to donate blood, it’s not actually going to do much for the immediate problem?
If it sounds petty, you should find the actual story. People generally don't take such extreme measures as banning an entire server from the network with no reason.

That's "bad news leads" again! Discussion about "inflation" always presumes that it hurts everyone, even though (by definition) it's just a rescaling of an existing economy and that for every loser there's a winner.

In fact salaries in the bay area have been rising ahead of and faster than inflation, so yes, it seems like a good bet. Also property owners (remember them from upthread?) are broadly helped by inflation as their mortgages aren't inflation-indexed (i.e. inflation makes their total debt go down in real value).

But none of that nuance matters, because bad news leads.
In that case, Atatus is affordable in my opinion.
To be fair, the tweets posted weren't personal attacks, they were criticizing the code and the usefulness.

Then again, maybe I'm not one to talk, I'm much more often on the sending than the receiving end, though hopefully not as much lately.
Nah come on, this is clearly sarcastic.
I had the same reaction at first.

But after some contemplation, I changed my mind. It's not so easy to say if there is a better alternative.

We need way to say "This is a Fediverse users. Their instance is xyz.com and their username is abc". A way that easy to grok visually and also by software.

abc@xyz.com - is alread taken for emails.

xyz.com/abc - would be a link

xyz.com@abc - is the wrong way round.

abc*xyz.com - would work. But is it good? Hmm...
Saying "a hundred times better" comes off a bit smug, especially when it's nearly immediately followed by "slightly harder to set up".

Those could be part of why it's not as popular.

Season 2 was bad 5 minutes into the first episode when the woman was now a gunslinger.
I mod Harmonix-made Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. In the last couple of days, we just squashed a six-year-old issue we'd been having where the game's rendering would lag a frame when updating a text label that's visible on screen. We discovered the solution was to double-buffer the labels ourselves from the scripting language the game uses, as the label update is not laggy if the label is present but invisible. Now it runs buttery smooth
TikTok, Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Youtube... what other apps behave like this?
Frankly, the change in the way the stories are written is probably more to do with the evolution of the internet as another form of media. I can remember when the BBC website launched, and it was clear that they, and everyone else, had no idea how things would evolve.

At least the BBC hasn't gone down the route of "Boris ate cake. You won't believe what happened next!" style headlines.

I still wish they'd lay off the op-ed pieces.

Everything at the beginning is not optimal, it will take time but it’s the direction. Adobe is already doing it in Lightroom using the selection and preset tools, and they are working surprisingly well (I’m a photographer). The next step it will be to integrate this computational power inside the camera, because to me looks absurd that a phone can do it (that is not a camera) and a camera can’t.
Pareto is generally framed as a principle not a law

Software implementations require trade-offs. An implementation of an algorithm can be memory-hard or memory-efficient, single-threaded or multi-threaded, generic or optimized for a particular processor, constant-time or low-latency. But no implementation can be all of those at the same time.

To create a solution within the constraints given is what engineering is all about, and requires expert domain knowledge and creative thought. Software isn't just math, it operates on real processors with real limitations. I'm not arguing that software patents should be valid, but the "software is just math" argument is too weak to carry much weight.
That is how the market works?

Look at any stock in any stock market that had a highly positive or negative rumour associated. You will see an immediate spike or dip in value and, a slow regression to the mean.
Totally agree. Usually to achieve a KISS state you need a few iterations and refactors to understand clearly the perimeter, objectives, constraints, etc. It is dedication, constant feedback and utmost important: egoless engineering. Usually it pays off when you refactor something by removing hundreds or thousands of LoC and your whole test suite is still all green

The goto statement exists in most modern languages. Even C# has a goto statement, and while I have only used it once or twice in the past 10 years, it still has a purpose -- effectively breaking out of multiple loops if you are within more than one. That is, break will only break out of the inner most loop. It can save a lot of resources sometimes to break out of both. Normally you would not want to put yourself in such a position, but it happens and comes in handy.
The Pareto principle is a principle, not a law, agreed:

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

The conflation being at the root of most of what you said is unfortunate: Pareto's law would indeed be a bad law, if it existed.

Yes, I think the world is full of situations where 80% of the payoff comes from 20% of the work.

I'd even be cheeky and say that the Pareto principle applies to about 80% of situations.

Mastodon can work as an oAuth Provider, I believe.

But the interest thing is that I'd like to do the opposite: I'd like to be able to use my own id (openID, public key, DNS record, whatever) and use it as my identity on any activitypub server. Then the servers would be truly a simple hosting provider.
Conway's Game of Life does consider diagonals. Since they start and finish by talking about GoL I think they've made a mistake.
Reminds me of when I tracked some bug in linux game (don't remember the name) to some fs call on xfs not returning what game expected, and it only happened if you had "old" (formatted with some older version) of XFS.

There was separate problem with some games borking out if your FS returned 64 bit inode.

There was also a swath of bugs with Unity games crashing or behaving weirdly if your locale didn't had same numeric separators as default one,

So if say, your locale printed 0.0 as 0,0 game didn't work till you changed environmental variables to use english or C
> suppose a multi-thread process has two or more threads with separate SQLite database connections to the same database file. Then a third thread comes along and wants to read something out of that same database file on its own, without using the SQLite library. The third thread does an open(), a read() and then a close(). One would think this would be harmless. But the close() system call caused the locks held on the database by all the other threads to be dropped.

IMO, this is by far the most insidious problem in this list. That's a horrible design flaw in POSIX.

What I think is happening to our brains is that we are already too fried from the over-stimulus of the constant "feeding" (pun intended with the term "Feed").

The endless treadmill of posts will always overpower you. Doomscrolling is an appropriate term for it. You always end up beaten. It's just too much for people, let alone your brain who has not caught up with the technology pace in terms of evolution.

I've slowly stopped using social media, though I'll never surrender my handles, that'd be leaving people to impersonate me.
I'm skeptical rust memory management is such a big invention by them and would bet some money the ownership model already existed before in papers at the very least. And even if not just imagine having to pay Dahl or Alan Kay to implement OO in your language, which was by every possible metric more innovative than rust's memory management.

Even if it would have stopped java from being a thing it's just not worth it.

This feels like being on some sort of Bizzaro Internet. In the past people on the Internet have told me to kill myself or have physically threatened me and nobody else in the IRC channel bat a fucking eyelid. Potshots like this on the Internet are so common it is practically table stakes.

Do I like it like this? No. Do I think it should be better? Yeah, in a better world. But no amount of blogging on my part would ever garner this level of sympathy.

I'm confused as to why HN is collectively so concerned about this person (enough to have 245 comments on a ten year old repost) when the same or worse is happening every day. Is it the names involved?
I am ambivalent on the idea of a completely free market.

Because while I believe it would self-regulate, in a vacuum (or anarchic system), a free market paired with a government means interference, nepotism, laws that favour monopolies and kills competition.

So when people like Liz Truss enter 10 Downing Street and claim they want to enact "free market policies", the result is just utter economic upheaval and chaos that hurts regular people further.
Have you considered that you are overly sensitive to this, and that you might have been conditioned to be by the manufactured controversy currently being stoked by the right? There are exactly two uses of the word "they" as a pronoun, both in regard to Alon Levy, who presumably prefers this pronoun. It's a big world out there - learn to live with it.
> The stronger your type system is...

I used to think a stronger and stronger type system was a universal good, then I got experience with code written by architecture astronauts[1] armed with such type systems. Knowing exactly which kinds of things to make impossible at compile time and which not is absolutely an art form. Unfortunately, such type systems seem to result in so many nightmares.

Exactly. And somewhere in 2021 many countries shifted to something that could be described as controlled exposure, weakening measures and causing more people to be exposed (whether vaccinated or not), at a level the health care system could cope with. Of course it was unfashionable to describe it like that, but the effect was a population better capable of dealing with it.

My first time seeing it too, it really does look appealing! I am using Scrivener's very generous Nano demo this year (https://www.literatureandlatte.com/nanowrimo). Free from Oct 15 - Dec 7, and at the end of that you get a 50% discount if you hit 50k words, which is pretty cool. So anyway, I've got my outline and stuff all in Scrivener but maybe I'll try iA next year, or for some other markdown writing work. It kind of reminds me of what Tomboy notes felt like in GNOME back in the day.

If we tell people they can't fall apart at the drop of a hat, does that actually help?
Well, the amount the US is expected to send to Europe in 2022 is at least 79 billion cubic meters. The price differential relative to selling that gas in the US @ ~$4 per mmBTU (pre-inflation 2021) vs in Europe @ $34 per mmBTU (post-inflation 2022), where 1 bcm = ~36 million mmBTU is what?

I get an addition $85 billion in gross revenue relative to selling that gas domestically (where there was a supply glut). Even if you just add on the excess shipped to Europe relative to 2021, that's at least an additional $40 billion.

Add on the ~doubling of domestic gas prices from 2021 to 2022 which is for that 827 bcm used domestically, hmm... roughly another additional $60 billion in revenue.

So, the Ukraine war has brought a windfall revenue gain to US gas producers on the order of $100 billion for 2022, right?

As far as agenda, mostly I'm interested in accurate information.

But social aspect went south as soon as it became big business, feed stopped being chronological, it kept (and still keeps to me) randomly refreshing and reshuffling and since beginning of covid it is full of ads and sponsored content that I couldn't care less about and annoys me to no end. When core sucks more and more no amount of glitter wrapping and psychology/addiciton-driven design makes it even as good as original.

I know the feeling of this post, but not at the level this person received.

I did several weeks of work, a few hours a night modernizing some docs. This included reverse engineering and rewriting a Markdown target for an autogenerated documentation generator which didn't have one. There were good responses, but people also complaining and asking why I bothered doing it.

Between this and Copilot scraping/training, I'm a lot more hesitant to put anything on GitHub.
So many issues which all come back to culture and how you both set and incentivize it in the workers. Not many humans are going to bite the hand that feeds them so if they can pretend they have a full-time job as a "dropped nail collector" or something for $100K/year, many people will.

Definitely need to do something about Political interference, the bane of many countries. People who have the power to sign checks/cheques but have no actual skin in the game if they change things, screw things up, promise their buddy some lucrative contract etc.

The transparency has got to be one of the best ways of forcing things into the open though. Instead of a large contractor hiding a tonne of profit (or contingency) into their price, they specify it all - that should be the cost of earning public money. It helps both ways too. If the Project goes awry and needs the contractor to do more, they need to be paid more based on their rates.

It sounds like NY is especially disfunctional though. I would love to see a decent (and long!) documentary on this sort of thing :-)
I mean, given the cost of litigation, and the inability to get counter-judgement (IE attorneys fees), this is already enough "reason".

These are litigation funding exercises, so the goal is protection of the "investors".

But you'd also get things like protection against discovery (the smaller entity has nothing to give you), etc.

This is the sort of thing where they go too far, and end up in jail despite thinking they're just good at playing the system.
