IMO this is one of the main benefits of Clojure from a lisp-er perspective: it actually takes multithreading seriously in its design. It basically chose the "yes add the machinery" option, but built the machinery into the design of the language.

For instance, vars (i.e. global bindings) are mutable storage containers that can be bound on a per-thread basis. `(def foo "bar")` creates a new var and interns it in the current namespace, binding a root value "bar". Using it in code looks up the current value of it, either in thread-local storage or in the root binding. Any thread looking up the root binding of the var will see a newly bound value immediately.

However! Data in Clojure is immutable, which means that even if a running program started by looking up the current value of a var (or any of the other concurrency-safe containers in Clojure), once it has that value it is guaranteed not to change underneath you.

e.g. if you have a process that looks up the current value of a var and does some work with it for 5s, an in-flight process will not be altered if the var is redefined in the middle of the work. Other processes could even be kicked off that would alter the var, and it will have no affect on each other unless you explicitly synchronize, since the data inside the var is immutable.
But not before you have reached a rather high level of technique. Before that, it feels like a sustained fight against drowning that fills your entire attention like few other things do. I'd say the threshold to mentally let go is lower in almost every other sport. That state of a background task that keeps the kind from dozing off, it's leaving plenty of attention to the mind wandering? I rarely hear that mentioned by swimmers, the state of mind trope frequently occurring is "counting tiles", which rather sounds like as if even those with perfect technique and routine don't disconnect mind from physical activity all that much.
His keys his coins
I have been kind of deep down these rabbit holes of how it works physically. It comes down to some kind of simple principles. Exercise gives your brain more blood. Lifting puts static pressure and conditions vessels and such. Many pro-brain-health hormones get released. The physical actions force a degree of indirect distraction that lets your sub-conscious work as well. These things all combine to promote brain health and problem solving. The brain uses a ton of energy so the blood flow just keeps it well fed.

E: it also makes sure junk from metabolic processes are cleaned up etc.
Yep. If Twitter really founders, Meta or Google will roll out something to replace it. Most Twitter users already have accounts with one or both, so it would be a very low-friction switch, and they certainly have the resources to do it. Mastodon will never catch on with the general public, for the same reasons that Linux has not.
No and starting six companies, raising five kids and going around the sun one too many times.
Specifically, longest chain is Might Makes Right, which is not consensus, it’s leader following.

If I makes you feel any better, I see Raft as only BFT during leader election, the rest of the time if the leader is a bad actor then everything is fucked. It’s a game of Secret Hitler.

Remember, the Byzantine Generals problem is what the BFT term is acknowledging, and the problem with the generals was one of sabotage, not just missing messages. It’s only statistically unlikely that longest chain is created in earnest and not via malfeasance. But the bigger a system scales the more frequent counterexamples occur. That’s the lesson of every scalable system. Bad days that used to happen once a quarter now happen a couple times a week.

Edit:

> In a consortium blockchain, typically blocks must be approved (signed) by a majority of consortium members.

Well, well. Adults have finally joined the blockchain community. Maybe there’s hope yet.
Assuming you're not exercising, do you feel terrible mentally like this thread predicts?
Because it is unlikely this data will ever become a common good available to all, we can use creative ways to poison it. For example, I buy things for me under the kids names and have my partner use my card to buy things for herself. I only have one real ID social media account which is intentionally enigmatic and stale. Of course my networks obfuscate a lot. Unfortunately this is a systemic problem, and the one percent like me are a drop in the bucket.
It’s #2. This is brand advertising, not product ads.

It’s about the overall reputation of Twitter. Newspapers are a good analogy. Is Twitter more like the NYTimes, or the NYPost? That will determine who advertises.
We now have a litmus test for this: If you are truly in it for the technology and not to get rich then obviously you would only use/develop stablecoins because they have the benefits of crypto without that pesky volatility. Virtually no one fits this description.
> Einstein routinely walked a few miles a day and that's all the exercise he did.

Do you mean to say this is insignificant? I think even if you don't work up much of a sweat or do some heavy lifting or whatever, a daily walk is very good for your health.
Although I appreciate the observation and may agree to some extent, there are confounding factors to consider.
Many people have been born into this life because of well-off parents and families, and their attitude toward this life may, indeed, be boring.

But I am sure I would have a lot of fun, as I myself am living a similar life now, though scaled down in breadth and ambition.
All of those have worse latency than DOS or X11 (even when the latter are configured to prevent tearing by adding latency)

Memory, power and compute efficiency have also regressed badly vs. those systems. Carmack explains how if would be possible to have tear free, framerate level updates "if only" people would upgrade to 8MB of video ram and 100MB/sec busses.

I'm old enough to remember the DOS days. On average, iOS apps are significantly less responsive than old 386 DOS, SDL or X11 programs.
for me as a server admin I hate how incredibly annoying it is to set up a new instance. Even the docker setup is very poorly explained (as in not at all in the official documentation) and there are so many subsystems needed for the setup. There are many third party setup guides but most are so outdated that they don't work anymore

It's not self contained and after running an instance for a while you can be in update hell because the containers might need newer versions and you need to read up on every service and how to update that.

I much more appreciate the gitea approach. Simple setup, self contained but can be extended with external databases if needed
Me: Totally confused, lol.

One needs to be careful with such home made devices as they may clash with the officially assigned frequencies.

We had in France a similar story where a village was losing 3G/4G connectivity almost every day around 22:00. It seemed that there are interferences with something.

A special car was sent by the national regulation entity, it was trying to triangulate the source.

They found a house where the owner bought a jammer on AliExpress because he wanted his children to sleep and not go on internet. He thought it was only "for the house".

You can set the tabindex property on SVG elements just like you can do on HTML, then you could setup an understandable navigation.

The point was that this kind of page is not invisible to screen reader but you still need to think about accessibility and put some effort into it, just like a normal html page.
Consider skipping the beer and dropping all alcohol entirely (but definitely still be social), you'd be surprised at how much it is holding you back fitness wise and how little you actually need it, beyond the thought that it is nice.
I assume they mean embezzlement. Which come to think of it may or may not involve hacking.
Not well!

Therefore? "empathizing with us" == "emotionally intelligent"

If dogs rather than pigs and octopuses gain human empathy through the appearance of understanding the emotions of humans, is intelligence in this sense equivalent to manipulative capability?
It would be nice to mine Pubmed to search for tuples (plant, disease, administration mode, contraindications, side effects)

Get a cheap magnetic exercise bike (Sunny has a good one) and start with 10 (or even 5) minutes a day at the same time (or event, waking up, finishing work, something like that) every day.

10 minutes is nothing, especially if you read or watch TV while doing it.

It'll get easy eventually, and the habit will be established. Then you up it to 15, and keep doing that until you hit at least 30 mins every day.

Then you have a nice habitual time period that you can add, swap, or integrate other exercises into.
It is more complicated, because it covers much more use cases, instead of just the basic.

Oh boy, it is used, starting by application servers.

This seems great -- I hope this concept of improving C++ takes off -- telling people to just switch to Rust is pretty lame.. tons of huge code-bases exist that are C++.
No. Not all insiders would necessarily be professionals as covering their tracks post crypto hack. They could just be someone who knew they had access to the keys and said "screw it my life is already horrible lets try this".

Another option is honestly an insider who got screwed (a lot of employees had a TONNE of money on FTX) selling the keys they knew of to someone else.
This seems to be a case of a new elite coming to power by stealing from the establishment elite.

In my experience, the cognitive load depends on the speed at which you're running.

Jogging at a leisurely pace, I don't need to consciously think about the jogging process at all and my mind is free to think about the books I have been reading lately, or to listen to an information-dense podcast, or to plan out the rest of my week.

But that all changes if I switch to running at near my maximum speed for the distance I'm going to run. Then understanding a podcast becomes nearly impossible and/or it interferes with the running. Indeed, having any internal, verbal 'train of thought' is difficult, other than my internal voice metronomically saying 'left, right, left, right' in time with my leg movements.
Find a good gym. There are some gyms where the instructors (and consequently the students) are a bit too hardcore. But at the good gyms (which I'd say are actually the average in the community, not outliers by any stretch), no one wants to injure their training partner. I've got a bad shoulder and a bad back. When someone gets my left arm in certain positions, I tap quickly and no one gets upset. I tell my partners about it, and tell them they can grab it just go extra slow.

So far my only BJJ-caused back or shoulder injuries were from early on when I was either too inflexible (and so it was easy to push it too far), or too stupid to tap (hadn't realized what "too far" was). Take it slow, find good training partners, listen to your body, and take up complementary activities (some strength training, flexibility things like yoga, core training especially for the back).
It'd be nice to have some linked studies, wouldn't it?
Hadn't really thought about it before. But sounds like a good way to frame someone for a crime.
Exercise and age/experience has taught my that the body is a dynamic, connected system. I stopped working out after an injury for a couple years, and when I got back into it I was amazed to see how strength imbalances (and the accompanying pain) migrated through my legs and back. That’s still in progress, but getting better for me. Most important thing is to take it slowly.
I'd say to give it another go. There's a wide range of demographics in the beta, so it could've just been sent at the wrong time! Invites come in waves, usually at the release of a new version, so it could be a month or so before you get a reply.
By talking to them. Sometimes this is as easy as walking over to their office space. Lunch is one way. If the company has town halls and people get beers afterwards that is a good time too (a lot of startups do this).

Listening carefully and asking questions goes a long way.

The "not my department" mentality doesn't help businesses succeed.

Culture is everything.
I’ve been “fit” at various times in my life by various definitions - ie a decent runner, weightlifter, etc. But I’ve never been “coordinated” enough to be even average at any sport.

Luckily in High School and college, I could choose swimming and weightlifting as my Physical Ed requirements,

Even being a fitness instructor didn’t take dynamic coordination since I was in charge of the class, do moves I was completely comfortable with and rehearsed extensively. I was never a good student in a highly choreographed fitness class. I picked up moves here and there from other instructors and made them my own.
Regarding arguments made for "sunburst style visualizations", it is usually that in Sunburst visualizations the drawing space increases with each level as the circumference of the radial plot increases. This is useful for trees, which usually have more nodes to show on lower levels closer to the leaves, than on higher levels closer to the root.

In comparison to the favored squarified treemap layout, sunburst visualizations are also able to represent an order in which the nodes may be given.

Regarding a tree visualization for the contents, we tried this in the beginning, but it often needs a lot of "editorializing" to decide which class to put a visualization technique in, if it would fit 2 or even 3 classes at the same time. Hence for the web-version, I switched over to a plain list. The old hierarchical layout can still be found at https://cs.au.dk/~hjschulz/pdfs/treevispo.pdf
Yeah because you're a user on HackerNews.

That process is not at all streamlined for the layperson, and the structure of crypto has only existed to make it harder, and to further divorce from what could otherwise be a straightforward process for 99% of folks.
Read this classic article: https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2012/04/08/metaprogramming-for...

The section called "A plan so insane, it might just work" describes what you mention.
Most people never try. People who never try have a 100% rate of failure.
A life where animals have a voice and are not used as a commodity; for the greed of humanity.

A planet that isn't abused and sucked dry for old fashioned resources. Care given and respected rather than for profit.

Harmony where conflict is low and that those with the riches always don't win.

Where corruption is tackled and the criminals who sought the most extreme crimes are punished to the full extent.
First off, it doesn't apply, given that the very link you included explicitly states that while there was a recommendation from execs and HR, Musk's team chose not to follow it. So it's irrelevant.

Second, even if those recommendations were followed...that's an argument -against- your initial statement that "nobody's firing productive workers." I.e., if they were fired for reasons other than merit, than -somebody fired productive workers-.
Did it make sense? Were you still able to understand?
For existing projects, if your team is using a third party UI framework like MUI or Bootstrap or similar, something that provides widgets and primitives to compose, learn that system and deviate from it only with intention.

That doesn't mean that you are stuck to it and have no creativity. It just means you have a good reason every time you want to (say) roll your own Autocomplete or date picker implementation. If the built-ins are good enough, even if they're not pixel perfect by your standards, often times it's good enough and there's no reason to overload it or write a custom one just to tweak minor whitespace or round a corner or whatever. A lot of that can be done with simple CSS tweaks anyway.

But learning how much work something ought to take when you deviate from the current system will help you prioritize changes. If it takes two weeks to make a bunch of small tweaks, is that still worth it? Or would you rather use that time to do some surveys, clean up the IA, and really clean up the user journeys at a higher level? Up to you. But if you can explain your changes and why they are valuable, it makes development far more palatable than tweaking cosmetic things willy nilly just because your UI designer has a certain look they are really attached to.

---------------

On the other hand, if you're starting a new greenfield projects along with your devs, now would be a great time to discuss and design the UX together, both so they know the user needs and so your designers know the dev hurdles involved. It's a lot easier to plan UI architecture alongside a design system than to try to shoehorn one or the other in later. With the right framework you can make a custom theme that will get you 90% of the way to your vision, without requiring your devs to create a bunch of UI elements from scratch. That's something they are probably not good at and probably don't want to be doing anyway, when there are already so many great third party options infused with years of design and research.

TLDR minimize reinventions of the wheel as much as you can, and you'll save a lot of dev and designer time and focus on what really matters to your users.
doesn't seem so [1]

“Those were simpler, more trusting times” is likely the answer you’re looking for.
Julia has many of the features one expects of a lisp. But it has a more "normal" syntax
Whenever I read a praise for the conceptual cleanliness and power of niche operating systems, I remind myself:

The current mainstream platforms are as complicated as they are because of performance.

Abstractions are fine until you realize you're doing thousands of network round-trips to draw a window, so what if you short-circuited that?

Yes the 9P protocol sounds great and cleaner than FUSE but what's the IOPS?

The reason only some of Plan 9s concepts made it elsewhere was because those were the ones that could be implemented without too steep a performance penalty (or where performance didn't matter).

(No excuses for sockets though :p)
Late-1990s systems supported practically tear-free updates for most practical uses, but AIUI there was not enough memory bandwidth for whole-screen updates to be tear-free, especially at higher resolutions and color depths. This is what Carmack is complaining about here.

Even then, there are better and worse ways of coping with limited video memory bandwidth, and what's "best" depends on the given application.

You don't give "us" nearly enough credit.

"We"'ve been through exactly as much history as Ur. History didn't begin in year 1 CE.

Even if you mean "Western civilization's heritage", that stretches back checks Wikipedia 5000 years through still-occupied Athens. "We" beat Ur handily.
When I read things like this I can't help but wonder why so many "gym rats" are... lets just say "not quite all there". Obviously some are far above, above, or of average cognitive abilities, but at my school many athletes/kinesthesiology students were embarrassingly, shockingly bad at math/science/logic despite spending by far the most time in the gym - and all the tutoring in the world doesn't seem to make up for it.
The clay tablets we have from the bronze age themselves seem only preserved by chance. They are found in store rooms in layers of cities that suffered widespread destruction, accidentally firing the clay records. So what we have is kind of sporadic, some letters from one king to another here, a bunch of apparently unremarkable palace economy bookkeeping there, then we tie it together with what we learn from archeology (and most exciting in recent times, from genetics). We also have a lot of stone stelas. But they certainly didn't leave us a well preserved big picture. I imagine future people would see the same story for us: A big stone inscription here, some documents accidentally printed on very high quality stock stored in an accidentally optimal place there, etc.

Another fun glimpse: It has been speculated, based on evidence in the Uluburun shipwreck, that some bronze age societies used a wooden book-like object with wax or clay faces as an easily erasable notepad. Whoever owned that may have thought about it the same way we think about electronic records blinking out. Or maybe they didn't think about the future at all.
I want to own the home I live in currently (a family member's we're renting), be working on my own software ideas full time for money, and that's about it. My life is pretty sweet as-is, I just want the "perfect job" (as if that exists) and to own a home. I am pretty lucky to make 170k a year doing very little work, even if it's impactful enough to earn tons of money doing way less work than most others do. I don't want to jinx it, karmically, by being too greedy!
no hurry. it's not like he needs the money now
While Kelly style analysis makes sense for investors like Buffet or Dalio, who bet a significant portions of their wealth on certain positions, for Jane Street it doesn't make much sense. That is because Jane Street makes most of their money in millions of really small trades either in market making, arbitraging, or front-running other trades every day. For these, every trade, profitable or not, is necessarily a miniscule portion of their capital.

Good to remember that the business that blew up in SBF's face was Alameda the prop trading desk, and not FTX, the exchange and the market maker. Seems like he did learn his lessons in EV well, it just wasn't good enough for bets over a certain size.
Just shooting from the hip, I'm going to guess that deliberately destabilizing ecosystems that aren't known to be unhealthy is generally not going to make them more healthy.

I wouldn't say that it's impossible to come up with some sort of microbial suppository that can take a healthy (for the host) microbiome and make it even more beneficial to the host. But, given the level of inter-person diversity in gut flora, I can't think of any particular reason to believe that it's likely that there's some universal treatment that would be beneficial to everyone regardless of their existing flora.
