The linked article focuses on the physical features of Tokyo. For me, even more attractive is the economic dynamism that they enable.

I moved to Tokyo in 1983 and have lived there and in nearby Yokohama ever since. Until 2005, I worked as a freelancer—mostly translation, but also advertising copywriting and other related occupations. I did my work at home, but I was often out and about in Tokyo to visit clients, attend narration recording sessions, visit libraries and bookstores, buy computer supplies in Akihabara, etc. Over the years, I interacted with hundreds of other people working freelance in the city: graphic designers, fashion designers, recording engineers, narrators, musicians, editors, photographers, videographers, other translators and writers, and various kinds of agents who made their living bringing together other freelancers to work on large projects. Our meetings would be held in coffeeshops, in taxis, on benches in train stations and parks, and in offices on upper floors of the zakkyo buildings mentioned in the article.

In those days, before the Internet changed everything, that kind of freelance work and lifestyle seemed to be possible only in a city like Tokyo. I don’t think any other city in Japan, except maybe Osaka, had a large and diverse enough population to create a similarly productive dynamism. I, at least, was certain that I would not have been able to get as much high-paying, interesting work if I had not lived within commuting distance of central Tokyo.

Since 2005, while still employed in Tokyo, I have been working in academia and have lost touch with that freelance economy. The Internet has probably made it even more dynamic in some ways, but I suspect that it depends much less on the physical urban landscape.
They're more egalitarian because there's a authority that is written. I can use the Bible or the Koran to judge the minister or the organization. I don't know if this is done in Islam, but it is in at least some strains of Christianity.
Nobody is buying them for the explicit purpose of playing games, but that doesn’t mean people who own them aren’t interested in games.

Yes. In most modern Japanese cities with more than 1 million inhabitants.

China has some of the strictest currency controls in the world. To the point if you are doing treasury operations for an international business there you can’t use your normal financial rails to accomplish day to day tasks like manage payroll.

No one, including Chinese citizens, want to keep their cash there. For corporations this manifests in added costs, but for individuals (with even moderate means) it becomes a game of hide the assets. So much so that cities in the west are dealing with asset inflation specifically attached to Chinese buyers.

China doesn’t have a problem with western citizens over paying for property there.

Until a currency liberalizes it can’t become a reserve currency for international trade. So for the yuan we have 2 choices, it liberalizes (and perhaps tanks their leadership) or it stays second class. The current Chinese leadership believes the former is worse than the latter.
That’s the cynical take, sure. But you must acknowledge there is a non cynical take. I’m so inclined to believe this is influence buying until I see that presented as the only possibility.
Chess style and art style don’t seem similar enough to me for this analogy to work. Computers are strictly better than humans at chess in every respect.
The website appears to be mostly just an insane rant. That said, I don't think it should have been banned either, outside of doing something specifically illegal.

Traditional gore-tex outerwear is made of 3 layers. The middle layer is the goretex, but the other layer is some fabric treated with a DWR that needs to be maintained for the jacket to work well (or the outer layer saturates with water and prevents the middle layer from breathing).

So yes, you need to treat most goretex jackets with a DWR periodically.

For emulating vintage gaming hardware that's no longer available, one argument would be preservation of the media.

But what's the rationale (not rationalization) on running an emulation of the Nintendo Switch, when it's still commercially available?

In practice, is it usually because people want to play the games without paying for the hardware and software?
The money with Quatar is not blood money. It's just money from selling natural gas. Just like norway got it's pension fund.

And how is quatar a slavery. Are they slaves just because they are a monarchy?

Yes quatar is a monarchy and they behave like dictators. But so is Russia where sports competitions are held. So is china where olympicis was held.

Even the prosperity of Europe is made on the back of colonialism.

So is London which is the place where all the criminals from around world move their money into.

So i Switzerland which has a reputation of storing black money.

So is France which still leech Money from Africa.

2. DO you plan to not use phones made in china which is a dictatorship

GitHub Copilot can be political
Today I created a jupyter notebook to experiment with JPEG compression before I decided to see if it would also make text suggestions on random topics. The results are certainly very interesting. I wonder if Copilot is trained on sources other than Github?
Songwriters have been using rhyming dictionaries since the day they were first put on sale. It’s a similar kind of process of discovery. You still have agency and individual inspiration.

Like, this isn’t some kind of hack’s approach to art. Literally every working lyricist that I know uses a rhyming dictionary from time to time. Why? It’s fucking work! There are deadlines!

With regards to AI visual art… the best results I’ve seen have been from people with strong visual art skills. Aesthetic choices still matter a lot when you’re tweaking the prompt, model, hyperparameters, etc.
I'm beginning to think that ActivityPub will never add anti-censorship features into the core protocol (for example, independent IDs that don't live on a relay server). Because I spoke with a core developer on ActivityPub stuff a couple of years ago about the issue of servers going offline and losing your account and he said that he was working on it.

But I wouldn't be surprised if he was discouraged from continuing this work because ultimately people like ActivityPub because server admins can be little dictators that censor and ban at will.
I disagree: if we make languages have NWS (Non-optional WhiteSpace) then we can easily disambiguate between:

let traversed-distance := yard-length;

And:

let traversed-distance := yard - length;

Which is valuable as kebab-case is best case.
Preservation starts in the present, does it not?

I think one thing that's easy to forget, some of the old school emulation, like early SNES emulators, came about when the hardware was still kinda current or recent.

One morning in a Canadian Rocky Mountain Park cookshack, a Whiskeyjack (aka. Canada/Gray Jay) swooped through and snatched a piece of bacon out of the frying pan. I repositioned myself to deprive the Whiskeyjack of a straight flight path and didn't suffer any more such depredations.

Much better manners than the bears.

On other trips they will even eat out of your hand (not permitted in parks, but you can't corrupt a Whiskeyjack or Raven - they already are).
so maybe it's time for us to extinct ourselves?
> Whereas Rust (if I remember correctly) allows arbitrary panic-ing and catching of panics

While it is possible to "catch" a panic in Rust, this is not an error-handling strategy, it is a correctness fallback. The intent is that, if you're writing a Rust library that exposes a C ABI, you halt the panic at the boundary of your library, because there is no standardized cross-language unwinding scheme and so unwinding across an FFI boundary would be UB. It's not there for error handling (and it can't be, not only because the API is deliberately designed to discourage it, but also because Rust programs can be compiled in a mode where panics abort instead of unwind).

> Swift forces you to acknowledge a possible panic at function call sites using “try”. Without “try” control flow can’t suddenly end.

This is a bit inaccurate. You can absolutely do things like divide by zero in a Swift function that isn't marked as `try`, which will crash the program. This is the same behavior that is expected of panics in Rust.
It’s not about predicting the future. The point of communicating legal risks is to make assessments about which risks might be worth taking because complying with every single law is impractical.

It’s part of the basic structures where the legal team has an advisory role.
Is it really that unique? I just looked up the Czech Republic to find that it is 95% Czech[1] but nobody goes around writing articles about whether it is possible to replicate how safe, clean, and functional the Czech Republic is.

Finland also appears to be about 90% Finnish (with 5% Swedish).

Portugal appears to be 95% Portuguese.

South Korea is also over 90%.

Ireland is 85% Irish.

I'm tired of Googling but the more I look, the less I think your point has any validity at all.
Art and entertainment hinges on novelty and message. If you have too much of something, eventually it becomes boring, with or without AI. Until we have something that could pass for AGI, you're going to need people making something meaningful and novel for you, regardless of the sort of their technical skills they currently happen to have.

> OCaml, Haskell, F#, and other weirdos: I personally can't do it. I tend to not like functional programming languages. I want to, but my brain lacks the plasticity to relearn everything.

Why would you find OCaml hard to learn if you know Nim? Isn't Nim a functional programming language as well?

Also, how is Nim for writing real-time games that run via JavaScript where you want to avoid garbage collection pauses?
For the developer community, I think it's mostly in the challenge and the joy of solving it.

For the player community... I have a Switch, and I have zero desire to play my Switch games on anything but the Switch. After all, I already totally accept its reduced performance for its amazing convenience and controller situation. But I do appreciate the preservation aspect.

(Seriously, it's not just about handheld vs. docked. Just propping up my Switch, screen only, on a table or the edge of my couch, and playing with relaxed arms and a joy con in each hand, is already worth a ton to me.)

Ask HN: Why would Google email me a data export for a different account?
This afternoon I got an email that my google data archive was ready.

I didn't ask for a data archive.

I checked google takeout and it didn't list any completed exports.

I looked at the email and it seemed legitimate with one exception: when I looked at the link for downloading the data the url had the wrong email address in the query string.

After looking into this for a bit I then noticed that I also received an email from google about restoring access to a google account (that I received because someone provided this as the contact email address for an appeal, according to the email).

I can understand how the email about appealing for access might happen, but how/why would I receive an email about a data archive for the wrong account?

Has anyone seen something like this before? It's like someone thinks my email address is one of theirs?

I've changed my password just in case and am looking into how to report this to google.

Any next steps you'd recommend?

I'm happy to see that most games just work fine and do not rely on any weird proprietary Nvidia stuff to run.
Unfortunately the window of Switch consoles sold that are softmoddable (afaik) was very narrow and early on, about the first ~18 months of the console's life (and mind, it is 5 years old now). Most units of the standard console are not softmoddable, nor are any of the Lite or OLED units. Hardware mods exist for all of them.
re: The package build instructions are rather strange. I've given up trying to compile anything written in rust since what "Rust" is changes every 3 months. Unless you're using a rolling distro, and even then, you're gonna have a hard time compiling $randomrustproject using repo compilers. There's no useful efforts for forwards compatibility and right now the dev userbase is still the type of people in love with bleeding edge.

Relays can censor as much as they want, since they're only stewrding a small part of the network, likely replicated elsewhere. As to building in ways to curate/moderate content in a distributed way, there are lots of ideas out there as to how that might happen. Here's an issue I opened just the other day: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/75
I've been using it, and it's not bad, but I do fall back on Google fairly often.
The following is not an endorsement of DDD.

There are many glaring issues with the ideas presented in that linked "take down" of DDD.

I can forgive the early strawman comparing "spreadsheets" to bespoke software solutions. As if they cover exactly equal problem/solution spaces. Fine. I'll play along...

I can even forgive failing to understand that DDD is a design methodology, not an architecture; That DDD in no way prescribes or enforces any particular code organizational or deployment strategy. Easy to get wrong I suppose, and doesn't necessarily invalidate what could become a coherent argument...

But the author then has to go on and give examples of just how little they understand the topic at hand!

The first points to database software as "an example of good architectural design where their purpose of storing data is not confused with the domain the database will be used for". Oh the irony! Of course that's the case! The domain of database software is... (drumroll) persisting data! What would you expect to see if you opened the source code for an RDBMS? Code for blasting out marketing emails? I could go a step further and opine that it isn't possible to know whether any piece of software follows DDD without actually seeing the design/code base... but I digress. This point is not forgivable. It's a clear and obvious misunderstanding of DDD and how it is applied to systems.

The next examples they give are of applications they worked on! In both cases the author completely misses the fact that the software they "fixed" by decoupling it from the "domain" are simply examples where they followed DDD to create a "better" system. That's right! If the goal of your software is to create a generic "data integration application" or "workflow engine", then yes, coupling your design to "healthcare" is a mistake. Both are examples where the author is confused about what domain their software is servicing, and how aligning the software design to the correct domain was a major improvement. Hmm... sounds like DDD to me :)

I think there are valid criticisms of DDD, but the article linked is quite poor at articulating them.
It's not an 'idea'. Many people find it hard (I do). You might not understand why this is the case, but that they (we) do is an empirical fact.
Yes, the timelines match up pretty well:

The SNES was released in Japan in 1990. The first SNES emulator in 1994 could run a few homebrews; I'd say SNES emulation proper started in perhaps 1996 with Snes96, but that's a judgement call.

The Switch was released in 2017. We are in 2022 now.
To be honest, I doubt that people who can actually make any progress in these areas would fail to know already what you are saying.

The P vs NP question is open but the conditional results are not merely novelties. There are many results that show very weird consequences for having P=NP. So either the nature of computing is utterly bizarre or in fact there are many common problems which are simply impossible to solve exactly in a reasonable amount of time.

You can of course try to find good heuristics that cover some common cases or even approximations of NP hard problems in some cases. There are literally thousands of researchers doing that every day.
