It's not only that either. OP used rdi because of calling convention, in x32 you would need to arguments on the stack instead and reference them +ebp instead of using registers if you want non-asm code to call your function.

We've banned this account. You shouldn't post like this, but not because it's against the rules (I mean, that too, but I get that you don't care right now); rather because when you post like this you discredit your own position and thereby weaken yourself. That is not in your interest.

Also, when you post abusively to HN it eventually gets your main account banned as well. But really you should just realize that it's not in your interest.
>I have actually been on food stamps.

yeah, were you a family on food stamps? Two adults, one kid? Or were you a single person on food stamps? I was a single person and like you I did pretty well, I sort of have the feeling that the dynamic would be different for a family though, it seems from what I know of family life is more problems show up and then you don't manage to take care of it the way you can as a single young person.

I'm starting to think I have dreamt this but... wasn't there an IBM Ethernet cable with instead of the little tab ending in ... nothing, it was a little bridge that went back down, so nothing to hook/snag on. But it didn't look quite like the 3D printed one here, but it was symmetrical looking, like a tiny tiny arch bridge.

Oh, and it was made of springy metal, in this maybe dream.

Ask HN: Why aren't there DSLs for Operating Systems? (Or are there?)
There are DSLs for nearly eveything we do with computers. Indeed, even "general purpose" programming languages are, in a sense, DSLs for ... math (Fortran), gofai (Lisp), etc. And of course there are zillions of more specific DSLs. The purpose of a DSL is to reduce the complexity of writing code for the target domain, which usually involves specialized vocabulary, functionality, and syntax. But the most complex programs that exist (well, at least among them) are operating systems. Yet we still build them in general purposes languages, like C. Of course, we almost immediately build a layer of functionality on the hardware and system services, but even when you get to the top, like programming bash commands, it's largely done in C (for Unix-likes). I'm wondering whether/why there isn't a DSL for operating systems. (Or maybe there is, but it's hard to find if so; I've never seen one, and it's a difficult set of phrases to search the web for, so I might be just missing the obvious, for which I apologize in advance, and appreciate the pointers.)
<< Some employees were offered up to $100,000 in raises to stay

I will admit that this entire saga shows rather reactive, if not plain erratic, behavior. That said, this behavior supposedly is not new in a sense that Musk has been known to sometimes sleep at Tesla factory and is a known workaholic that demands similar level of devotion.

I am saying all this as someone, who defended Musk's initial layoffs, because I assumed ( clearly wrongly ) that he had some sort of plan devised during his review of Twitter during purchase. Musk is currently worth 180b. Even if he burns Twitter to the ground, he could still buy 2 or 3 publicly listed companies on a whim ( as he seems prone to do ).

Is it the kind of power we, as a society, want one person to wield?
How about, the rest of the employees, whose nominal wages have remained almost completely flat in the same timeframe?
I think it would be fair to say he's able to see a bet that's worth calling early, and building hype for it.

Those two together means that the engineers who are similarly early, want to come work for you. In a world with no electric car market, if that's what you really want to work on, Tesla is a beacon to you.

It's served him well in several industries now, but I really don't see how that can apply to this new mission of trying to make something of a relevant-but-kinda-failing social network.

"Engineering is complicated -> I will buy shares"

I don't think this logic works.

The company is not made or broken whether or not the software is a bit more complicated than it has to be.

Making it a bit simpler will not change the company.

Moreover, it's very doubtful if they are in a position to magically untangle all of that and make things a bit simpler.

Most of the value of Twitter will come from revenues, growth and other things.

It's entirely possible that Musk could turn things around, but it's also very risky. It's debatable whether the people will perform in a coherent manner for him, that advertisers will come back, that his ideas will pan out.

And after all of that - he bought Twitter at the peak! He's holding the bag! Twitter would be worth maybe 40% of what it was at the peak, just by market forces alone - so he has to climb up to that big valuation to break even.

It's entirely plausible, but there is nothing obvious about this situation, and it's not an 'architectural' issue.

Finally, I will say that just because you thought things were overly complex, does not mean they were. Things are sometime a bit more complicated. Maybe, maybe not.
Are there any formulas supporting this or that composition of spacetime? Until there's math it's a simple handwaving.
I doubt the majority of them are visa holders, but twitter sponsors h1-b staff, and it's incredibly difficult (logistically and emotionally) to move jobs or do anything visa-wise.
Very cool idea, was it inspired by Fossil? I would totally use this if it had a VSCode extension.
There's a high degree of bias in who we hear from too, I think. Most European countries have a grand total of zero Amazon depots, so there are plenty of European countries where the delivery is not fast either, but I rarely see people from those countries talking about it for whatever reason. I'm guessing in large part because those countries also does not have a local Amazon site, so it feels less surprising because if you order from Amazon you're unambiguously ordering from abroad, with different expectations.

> Interesting - others have commented that the notorious security issues seem to have been addressed in modern PHP versions, you seem to disagree?

It's been many years since I shut down the forum so I can't speak to the current state of things.

At the time there were two major problems:

1. the php runtime was constantly in need of updating because of yet another vulnerability either due to bugs in a forum-required feature like gd (graphics package iirc) or another stupid php default resulting in exploitable bugs (remember register_globals anyone?)

2. the forum software was poorly written by the kind of people who wrote php web software back then, not well maintained by upstream, and I didn't have any time or interest in becoming a php forum software maintainer myself.

There's only so many obvious semi-successful attempts to hack my shared server via any combination of the above before I lose interest in hosting a small web forum for free.

If I were to host a web forum today I'd want it to be mostly static content and not a constant invocation of some php or php-like interpreter involved in every operation.

I am interested to know people's thoughts about Musk for those that have known him for a long time.

For example, I definitely always got the sense that pg had a negative assessment of him from some of pg's writings about PayPal's early days.

But I'll say I always admired Musk for his sheer tenacity and ability to work extremely hard (and his ability to convince other people to work extremely hard). I'd say my opinion about him started to change right when he started bizarrely libeling that guy in Thailand as "pedo-guy".

So I guess my question is whether he's always been a collosal asshole, or whether that just grew over time as his wealth and power removed any constraints on his ego.
It is absolutely bizarre to me how half-assed Google is with integrating its products.

I have a week of events coming up in Google Calendar each with a different event location. Why can't I see a map of all those event locations alongside the calendar with all the same event details listed? Why can't I associate a Google Calendar event with a specific album or set of photos in Google Photos and see those in the map and calendar as well?

This is why I'm building https://visible.page with my brother. We have all these capabilities of visualizing data on the web, yet no one has actually put them together in a convenient and consumer friendly way to visualize any type of information together in one place.

All these big tech companies seem to just give up on any kind of significant innovation as soon as they reach a certain level of monopoly on their market. Twitter, Spotify, Facebook, Google, etc. I can think of a dozen significant feature experiments they could try that would make my daily life better using those tools yet they don't.
I don’t think it is cruel treatment targeting software engineers, it is targeting employees not originally hired by Musk’s management. Of course, that is everybody at Twitter.

How to Write History While It’s Happening: Lessons from Tacitus
While this is certainly one factor, it can’t be the only factor. Twitter apparently had ~300 H-1B employees which is less than 20% of their remaining headcount. Unless there are vastly more of other visa types like L-1?

But then, for many studies about (e.g.) Eating, Behavior, Psychology (etc.): Even for well defined populations (lets say, "religious male adults in Texas") there would be so many incidental variables that I would have strong doubts that results are easily reproducible. On the other hand, studies with "well defined" but very narrow subpopulations (e.g. "religious male adults in Texas that work in printing offices and eat granola every morning") are not easily transferrable, which makes it difficult to generalize results (thus, results are less significant).
100% agree. He's hysterical. It has changed my opinion of him.
Sure, if you are very serious about it. But anecdotally, a lot of folks buy 3d printers only for them to gather dust. Unless you are really up there on income, get something cheaper to start. Ender 3, while being objectively worse, can be had for peanuts compared to Bambu Labs printers. I have one sitting in the room next door, bought on a whim after noticing a very good deal. While I would love a better one, it has taught me what at-home 3d printing can be used for, and what are the main features to look for in the next upgrade. And the limits of applicability I've run into have thus far been mainly down to materials and my design capabilities, and better hardware won't solve those.
Bootstrapping a client requires the same trust in the source from which you're getting the blockchain history, with or without PoW. PoW doesn't play a role here. But you're right that immutability does. What can give you confidence is that the version of the blockchain that you got is consistent with what others have and can show you (i.e., that you will be able to be a part of the network). This is the "distributed" part of what make immutability. The amount of energy spent until then plays no role here.
The App Store would not reject an app just because its source was under the GPL. It's the other way around: it's the FSF who says that Apple's terms don't allow full compliance with the GPL.
Human artists cannot produce thousands of works in a few hours.

This arguments come up in every thread, and I'm baffled that people don't think the scale matters.

You may also be observed in public areas by police, but it would be an orwellian dystopia to have millions of cameras in spaces analyzing everyone's behavior in public.

Scale matters.

> This flow is not possible with distributions that run pretty out of date software

I use Debian Stable and Fedora on my systems and I have the latest versions of all of the software of which I want the latest versions because I can install software from source like a big boy. And my installers don't have version numbers hard-coded in them like PKGBUILDs do, so I get the latest versions immediately.
> I'd say for a big org the priority isn't "not fucking up", it's not objecting.

At the organization's level it's "don't fuck up" since you're already making a lot of money and a lot of people's livelihoods are depending on that - the trick, if you're managing in a big org, is how to avoid that turning to a "don't disagree" culture before "not changing" turns into a bad thing instead of a good thing.

I haven't figured out how to do that - or to work under people who also haven't - so I prefer small orgs.

I try to do it myself as well, but when you get into various side hustles, you are faced with a number of problems:

1. Figuring out which tax forms you need.

2. Understanding the lingo in those forms.

Especially with item 2 above, I would likely have to read over a hundred pages (without exaggeration) to figure out how those terms relate to my side income. And that's after figuring out 1.

In any case, the purpose of the article is that most people I know implicitly trust their tax preparer, and they really shouldn't.

That's the word I was trying to find: "engagement farming". While I respect his hustle, majority of his content is exactly that. Find the outrage in the world, wrap it up in a box, and include some of your products to alleviate the pain(i.e. layoffs -> job postings).

This is a pretty well known pattern to grow on social media though. Find the major division, double down on one side, and repeat your position. It's smart, but feels wrong to me. Needless to say, our attention talking about this is just making him more money, so I respect him to be in that position.

I skimmed (very quickly) through it. The "graphic depictions" of naked people are very tame. It seems reasonable for teenagers to read this.

There's a picture of penises, but they boys are ~8 years old or so. It's a bad memory from childhood.
