Thanks a lot, and happy to hear about your experience!
Yes, the review mode is quite basic at this point but I hope to add more features soon, including some that are unique when compared to chess.com.

On the tech side, what Maia is doing I think is similar to our NN component. It turns out to get realistic play (include randomness, avoid too many one-move blunders, same level of tactical play as positional play, realistic endgame play, etc.) you have to do quite a lot on top of that – much more than I initially thought. I have tested the AI over the last year with friends of different strengths to try to make the gameplay more realistic and engaging. I also think the automatic adaptation to your level of play, and predicting the rating, is unique. Bad gyal AFAIK uses a different training method where Stockfish evaluations is involved, but I haven't really tested it enough to know how it stands vs. Maia.
DJI Mini 3 hits the FCC database; cheaper Mini drone coming?
Conversational Computing is just not ready. Even a better AI, alone, will not solve it 100%.

But because of the 2010s meteoric rise of FAANG (in the public imagination and stock market) they think they can quickly push into mainstream all these immature paradigms like IVA, AR and now VR.

All these technologies exist since decades, but they are not ready! billions of dollars of investment and marketing are not enough to make them so.

As small a Leap as a tactile portable device took us almost 20 years to reach a conclusive mainstream form (iPhone)

We need to accept that IVA/AR/VR are exponentially larger leaps and should remain side-shows for a very long time to come.

For example, Microsoft is finally acknowledging this, with HoloLens being now just "to help you solve real business problems".

But on a serious note, it's possible to individually salt passwords, and still match username & password in one query.
So, we still have to wait for each major-mode mainteners to update their code in order to benefits from those change ? In this case, how big should the change be for a "typical" mode ? Is it going to happen for C/python/typescript/etc.. anytime soon ?
True but aren't username/password passe? Username should be 'account details' like mother's maiden name or zipcode, not a security feature.

And short passwords you change a lot - what a weak system!

How about provide a cryptographic key and that's it. It's right or it's wrong.

Or heck, if it's not recognized then just create a new empty account.
The exact same thing is true of Rust.
GitLab team member here for over 3 years. Can confirm, it works exactly as advertised. The detailed description above is totally in line with my experience.

The two essential elements of why this works.

1. Communication (both formal — work related — and informal) is explicitly defined. https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/communication/

2. There's absolute executive sponsorship to work "handbook-first." If it's not in the handbook, it's as if it doesn't exist. The top-down belief in the system enables it to function. https://about.gitlab.com/company/culture/all-remote/handbook...

https://joeduffyblog.com/2015/11/03/blogging-about-midori/

>Midori was a research/incubation project to explore ways of innovating throughout Microsoft’s software stack. This spanned all aspects, including the programming language, compilers, OS, its services, applications, and the overall programming models. We had a heavy bias towards cloud, concurrency, and safety. The project included novel “cultural” approaches too, being 100% developers and very code-focused, looking more like the Microsoft of today and hopefully tomorrow, than it did the Microsoft of 8 years ago when the project began.
> I think you meant “borrow checker” because sure it does. It’s called a const reference. Want a mut borrow? That’s a pointer.

These have very different semantics. Lexically you can only have either 1 mutable reference or N immutable references at a time to a given object. This is the foundation for a lot of the safety and aliasing [2] guarantees. Just because they both use an '&' doesn't make them equivalent! :)

Don't get my started on `std::move` which doesn't really move, and continues to allow you to use the source object - in whatever condition it may be in. These are also not the same. C++ move semantics are sort of the 'ruined fresco' [1] of Rust move semantics.

> you'd be advocating for the end of adoption of electric vehicles and keeping humanity a single planet species forever thus increasing our existential risks.

Even if you thought that we could become multi-planetary (incl. not just getting to other planets but living there in our current human form), thinking that Elon Musk is the only person on earth ever who could make this happen is pretty cultish. I mean, come on. Do you really believe he is humanity's savior?

Again, how is that leakage, if you can just try registering a new account and see if that username or email already exists?
> That's why, as a regular citizen, it's vitally important to live in a country which has reliable, honest politicians.

There is no way to ensure reliable and honest politicians. The best you can do is hope most policymakers are at least somewhat honest, and then institute stringent checks and balances to ensure a corrupt politician can't do too much damage. Which is what most developed democracies do, with varying degrees of success.
Interesting you didn't engage with those other replies then. Why is that?
True, but the story covers that aspect - many systems provide other ways to check if a username exists (e.g. trying to register a new account, or sending an email to a gmail address, and so on)

No, read the article before commenting please.

I do wish @dang was around though, most of the comments in here don't reference the article at all, even though it's really insightful.
You really need to work on your reading comprehension, or at least put in more of an effort. My central point here isn’t that the US is unique. If anything, it’s the Netherlands that’s unique. But at the very least, they are two very different countries.

One thing the US and Netherlands have in common is that they are both democracies. The Dutch pivoted back to bicycle infrastructure because there was public demand for it. This is not true in the US.
One mentally blacklist some countries because of their genocidal histories and preserves positive or not-that-bad opinion on some other countries which frequently were the victims... and then one learns more about the histories of these other countries...
> If you mistype your username, you might have entered another, existing username.

That's a good point, but there is no way the website can detect that situation, and I suspect it is much less likely than typing your correct username and the wrong password.

> The website doesn't always know which one you got wrong, and assuming one way or the other just makes things worse.

If the website doesn't know which one you got wrong, then yes, it should just tell you so; the article is not arguing otherwise.
This narrative is fictitious, though. It's not as if an alleged leaker of such content couldn't possibly have sent it elsewhere...
The article literally tells how the username can already be validated.
"99.9% of websites on the Internet will only let you create one account for each email address. So if you want to see if an email address has an account, try signing up for a new account with the same email address."

Yes, but signing up is a more cumbersome process and usually has a CAPTCHA attached to it, unlike logging in.
And those services also plug the forgotten-password information leak by just informing you "if you have an account, you got an email" instead of giving you an explicit success or error message.

I guess the better point for the article would be "many websites cargo-cult the login error message without understanding why it's there and how that should impact the rest of the service"
That is still an example of knowing the content that you want to play exactly, you just don't remember its official name - and yes, search engines have gotten pretty good at this.

The more relevant use case is "hmm, I'd like to listen to some prog rock, let me browse what Spotify has and see what takes my fancy". Sure, I could say "VA, play prog rock", but I don't want it to choose for me: I want to browse the available content to remind myself what are my options, and choose one when I see one that looks interesting.
Oddly in theory I agree, but both myself and my parents where quite happy with door to door salesman purchases.

Door to door sales doesn’t need to be a scam. It’s perfectly viable to calculate when individual subdivisions are the right age to need new siding and then send a sales guy around. Similarly selling solar roofs are exactly the kind of thing people are likely to be happy with but don’t consider. If the sales guy is also knowledgeable enough to give a solid estimate and talk about financing options it’s cheaper for the company than sending people to drive around and make lots of estimates.

At the other end, you also have people running outright scams or selling dubious products at insane markups.
You can sign up as a developer to create software for Oculus devices

and there is an Oculus Quest store

https://www.oculus.com/experiences/quest/

If you developed your own "metaverse" you could list in the Quest store but of course Meta can push you around there the same way Apple can push you around in its App Store.

Meta definitely has a vertical integration strategy, I think Horizon Worlds (or Horizon Worlds + Facebook) is what they have been after for a long time. If the hardware was there in 2014 (when they bought Oculus) I think they would have deployed a service on whatever hardware was available -- but given that the hardware needed serious investment they figured they could lead that revolution.
Yes, the unlimited subscription gives you access to a much larger selection of music.
Ask HN: Supplements and vitamins that help with ADHD
Dear fellow concentration skills challenged people.

I definitely have all the typical ADHD symptoms you can find in literature. They all look way less acute than many of stories you find on HN. Though I really struggle sometimes and they affect my life and work performance. For this and other more important reasons I prefer not to disclose, Im not able to get an official diagnosis and get prescription in near future.

Other tools aside (lifestyle, sleeping, eating, therapy etc) — what legal prescription free drugs, vitamins and supplements have had even slightest yet noticeable positive effect on your ADHD?
Nice. Epochtimes link. Total rag of a site. And everyone knows it.
You can provide a more helpful error message by explicitly informing the user that the username they typed exists but they haven't offered the correct password for it.

Unless the site searches to find out which username the entered password actually corresponds to (which is a whole new, terribly dangerous, can of worms), it can't do better than that

Because any malicious player can easily check whether usernames exist, so hiding that data point is not much good for security.
These days few people have personal secretaries, but back when they were common they really were personal - once you got a personal secretary she (nearly always she, I feel like we should acknowledge sexism even though it is irrelevant my point) would follow you (nearly always male), as you moved job to job and up the ladder. She went with the you because once you spent a few years training her to how you worked, a new secretary would greatly limit your effectiveness.

These days a large part of what people relied on secretaries for a computer can do faster, so only at the highest levels do you see them. There are still secretaries at the low levels, but not nearly as many, and they are not doing the same tasks.

This is mentioned in the submission. The argument is as follows: If you're vague on the login page but still do the validation on the signup page, the information leakage happens regardless, just on the signup page rather than login, as most websites only allow one account per email.

> I don't quite get the "unburdened" part.

Then let me explain. Some programmers (~10% by my educated guess) like languages with lots of features, but most don't; really don't. It seems that being able to serve as a first language is a prerequisite for being super-popular (and Java, Python and JS serve in that role), and having more features is a big hindrance to that. We are more concerned with Java having too many features than too few (and teachers complain about that).

Every additional significant language feature has a cost, and often for every experienced developer it gains, it loses several beginners. The trick is balancing the benefit and the cost, and in Java we do this by adding features slowly, and trying to pick only the ones that give a lot of bang for the buck (which means we often add features relatively late, after they've proven themselves elsewhere). This strategy -- originally laid out by James Gosling in the mid-90s -- works, and no other strategy has so far proven to work better.

> That's strictly worse.

It really isn't for languages seeking to be at the top for the reason I just explained. But even if you think there's some subjectivity there, the objective fact is that no language with a strategy of adding features quickly has performed better in the market than Java. The only languages in the same tier have even fewer features. So there is no objectively measurable metric by which it is worse: languages that add more features more quickly don't fare better (in fact, they seem to fare worse), and no significant differences in productivity or correctness have been found (despite trying).

> and the Java legacy solutions are usually quite a lot uglier

I think they're usually quite a lot nicer, but people have different preferences.

> But I disagree with the stance that stackful coroutines are superior.

Okay. There aren't many things all developers agree on.

Easy to say from an easy chair in a rich country.

But that paying poor countries to do work, that's their current route out of poor. To take that away over some social-action-theatre objection is just cruel and thoughtless. From one point of view.
>protecting your own marketing against much stronger competition is another.

That's the whole point. Most countries that do this are locked out of rich markets. They're said to be competing "unfairly". They know mercantilism works they just can't practice it without being slapped with countervailing tariffs.

It was US policy both to allow and encourage mercantilism for South Korea because that meant it could function as a military bulwark against the communist nations surrounding it.

OK so I did some digging into the schematics.
Posted relevant parts of schematics here [1]

Yeah it totally jibes with what you said above.

The rasterizer outputs what looks to be 10 bits of horizontal position (for the pixel being written I'm assuming). Since screen is only 256 pixels wide, this would imply that there are fractional horizontal bits here. The rasterizer keeps track of fractional bits to compute sloping (jaggies)... so the fractional bit implies the pixel being written fills up more than 1/2 of the next pixel.

Video memory is 7-bits per pixel. 6 bits are for 64 color palette index. The fractional 1/2 pixel bit (after some AND/OR/XORing) is stored as the 7th bit of the pixel. Indicates its a "wide" pixel.

Later, when video memory is being read/scanned to the monitor, the buffer holding the 6-bit color to output is sometimes latched a half clock cycle later. The half clock cycle delay is the 7th bit stored in the video memory, the 1/2 bit.

So yeah.. you're essentially delaying the latching of the next color if the pixel is "wider". It makes sense to think of the additional bit as a width bit.
This is a crazy way of doubling resolution... instead of needing double the screen buffer memory, you add 1 bit to indicate the pixel is wider. The caveat is you really don't have true double resolution, you can't have a single pixel at half resolution. You only get pixels of normal width, or 1.5 pixel width. Still that's amazing!

It should be possible to see this artifacting on a real game. Since the alphanumerics overlay is scanned at normal pixel size, if there is a half pixel in the bitmap, the overlay should sometimes not appear aligned to the background. Paul, you might be able to see this on your machine. If you play around in doodle city, you can move polygons where they're behind the alpha overlay, slight movements might show the half pixel in relation to the overlay.

Yup. Exactly.Epoch times. Slightly less reliable than the National Inquirer.
You are trying to put a racist spin on something that is simply a matter of time and circumstances: You cannot instantly, just by declaring it to be so, have technology, infrastructure, efficient agriculture. You need to start where you are and continuously improve the status quo in your country. That takes time. How much depends on things like corruption, means, climate, openness for change, local resources and topography. And of course there can be setbacks, e.g. if the aforementioned circumstances change. TFA has some nice graphs on that, where you can e.g. see the almost parallel development of USA, Germany and South Korea, just with different starting points in time. Otoh, there is another graph, where cirumstances changed for the worse, taking development down again.
Why is SBF not in prison yet?

No idea. I hope he survives long enough to stand trial because as I understand it, he is just one pawn in a much bigger game and some high profile officials stand to be embarrassed or possibly arrested assuming they are not untouchable.

> equivalent of $2.15

But what does this even mean? The buying power of the dollar (or its “equivalent”) where those people live can be much higher than in the US. (Unless you mean to compare with living on that much per day in the US.)
I figured that a good option would be to slightly change the date. I don't know what the date resultion us but shuffling it around by a bit shouldn't be an issue.

Of course if the date only has seconds resolution it may be to big of a shift to be reasonable.
Those kinds of fans typically use a bronze bushing rather than a bearing. These bushings are long-lived, but eventually wear. When the bearing hole enlarges as part of the wear process, the fan rotor shaft now has additional room for lateral movement in the bearing and can oscillate in the the bearing rapidly, causing the "brrrrr" noise you hear.

You can often extend the life of such bearings by adding a drop of light machine oil to the bearing (usually you have to pull off a sticker on the back of the fan to access the bearing).
I believe in humanity’s ability to do it.

Also, you completely missed the point. Since his ultimate goal with SpaceX is a multi-planetary future, the only way to make him “fail” at that goal is to ensure a single or zero-planetary future for humanity.
