You're not. All human society worldwide is optimized for isolation.

Compartmentalized. Even the more communal cultures (like Middle-Eastern or Asian with extended families living in the same household for multiple generations).

We have distinct "spheres" that may sometimes overlap a little but with almost no interfaces to mingle between them: Work, home, civilian, government, policing, shops, services, online, offline...
Urumqi ones, yes already relaxed covid measures because frankly XJ lockdown past 3 months was stupid excessive and protest by actual commoners. CCP listens to these, even Uyghurs in XJ.

These "rest of China" protests which are mostly coordinated student protesters - not commoners - many of whom admittly have very shitty dorm situations to be locked down in, probably not. I'd expect opposite, academic punishments, being expelled etc, especially Shanghai or other "libtard" schools. Like Shanghai protest being coordinated on telegram with RFA and Epoche Times reporters, those that get associated are going to be fucked. The TLDR is until their parents get on the streets, enmass, this will pass.

Total long shot here, but I was reading your comment here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33759326 and really enjoyed the keen insight on the situation which inspired me to read more from you. Next I downloaded the book Focusing by Eugene Gendlin on your recommendation. Then I went further and saw this comment and the comment you linked to here and what you're looking for. HN doesn't seem to have a PM system, but let me know if you'd be willing to chat and I'll put my contact email in my profile.

It’s shocking that a short 10 months ago the recruiters were getting recruited and tech workers were demanding 4 day work weeks. It’s always been a boom and bust industry but this last boom was surreal.
It will be interesting to look again once Nim reaches 2.0. And Crystal still requires lots of work on compiler and Windows Support. I just wish it had more resources. Along with Zig. All three of them need more time to mature.

I haven’t read the book yet, but typically Herzogs works have a “meta” feel to them, where the main events become more of a backdrop and the camera focuses on the people describing them. I don’t find them to be the best way to learn about a subject, but they’re worth watching anyway.
If you ask me, it's because humans fucking suck to be around. Myself and yourself included, along with everyone else.

Marrying? Fuck that; pun intended. Friends? I can count the number of true friends I've ever had with one hand. Co-workers and comrades? Ultimately, we're just there to make ends meet. Societal collective (eg: neighborhoods, villages, towns)? Well, we're here talking about this because such things have become pieces of history.

I crave solitude, even if in practice that solitude relies on a handful of people and organizations that enable it (eg: supermarkets, gas stations, power company). Interacting with people fucking sucks balls, the less of it the better I say. I'd sooner deal with machines or our fellow animal peers.

The way I see it, back in the old days people tolerated being around each other because that was a hard requirement to long-term survival. But that is no longer the case, and given that relinquishment and freedom, I for one am going to take full advantage of that freedom and enjoy something my ancestors couldn't.

Of course, this also means I won't have any descendants to enjoy what I enjoy (or enjoy what I couldn't), but that's none of my concern because I don't care about leaving behind offspring in the first place. Individualism baby, everyone including Mother Nature can go pound sand.
Yes. As hard and unfair as it sounds, if you have finite resources and too many expenses, at some point you have to take drastic decisions.

The big difference is in how you handle them "in a couple of weeks". You can totally screw them, or you can honor their credits.
She's quite popular for this "emperor wears no clothes" stuff but has she done any meaningful research? All my friends with Physics Ph.D.s are in industry so they aren't of much use.
It’s important to note too that the performance comparison is for the interpreters (not using JIT).
Believe it or not, I get that, and I respect the capabilities and dedication involved as well (despite not supporting their missions). That said, we don't need such a huge MIC to derive that (effectively a blank check).

If your private SSH key is leaked, you can expect the attacker to come up in with a single successful login attempt, sshguard, fail2ban etc. won't help.

The only help against that scenario is a true multi factor setup, or maybe a hardware-based security token that needs a second factor (fingerprint or PIN) to unlock.

Yes I’d say this is more along the lines of concurrency problems than caching problems: it’s about synchronizing access to memory (cache) between multiple cores.
There’s people on there from other countries. They don’t pay taxes here.
Ultimately, people want results. A lot of public money gets spent on physics research, and it’s a totally valid question to ask what have we gotten in return for that investment. I’m not involved in the industry, but it doesn’t seem like our fundamental understanding of things has improve substantially over the last few decades? The proliferation of new models, e.g. MOND and super-determinism, is kind of evidence that there isn’t a definitive answer to many questions that have been around for many years.

I think I remember the whitepaper, but don't know where to find it these days.

Elisp bytecode now has a compiler using libgccjit, in Emacs 28.

LuaJIT simply did a lot of heavy lifting, implementing a full blown compiler with register allocation and all of that. Lua wasn't special that way. Rather, the Python devs didn't care that much about speed, and Python has the baked in notion that Python programs are a tree of nested dictionaries. Thus, there is only so much performance that could be wrung out of PyPy. But it still helps a lot.

Python 3 was of course a tragedy. If they were going to break stuff at all, they could have made some of that dynamicity optional (few programs use it). Then PyPy could have been the reference implementation and it would be crazy fast, eliminate the GIL, and so on. Just like Lisp implementations have done for 50+ years.
Unless it is an OS service like on Android, Inferno, Oberon, or the big iron computers from IBM and Unisys (where I agree power consumption isn't that relevant).

Which cache the generated code between runs, unless the original code changes, avoid each application shipping their own mini-JIT toolchain, and on Android's case AOT compile the application using the PGO data gathered by the JIT (also shared via PlayStore to other devices), when the device is idle and charging.
But you aren't actually mixing data here, right? Even though foo and bar could be on the same cache-line, the threads need to read/write either foo OR bar, so the respective core caches being out of sync for the var they don't use does not really cause any safety issues. Maybe I'm missing the point of your example.

No idea how these two separate cache lines get merged to main memory in the end though, is there some kind of write mask for that?

Also I imagine them being in the same struct is really just an implementation detail and shouldn't actually influence the memory safety?

Last time we had people in the field of AI writing on HN expecting another AI Winter. I thought all the improvement we have now, and we might get in the future like Stable Diffusion 3.0 and possibly many others, while not L5 Self Driving Car or General AI, has yet to be fully used outside of Tech community, or even in Tech itself. The long tail of distribution and positive feedback loop will sustain its development for another 10 years.
I've seen the argument of "running containers from whoever on internet without carefully crafting Jail for yourself is no-go and lame stuff and is not welcome in FreeBSD world", now if doors are open for such things on FreeBSD, means it's welcome? No more space left for "handcrafting elitism"?

It’s actively trying not to have all the associated faults. For instance, there is no company behind it that needs to make money, so no ads, no algorithmic timeline.
You could block his account or the keywords 'Elon' and 'Musk'. That's the idea anyway, to provide moderation tools to the end user. You should check back when that idea is put into practice more comprehensively by Twitter engineers.
But the point I was getting at is that perhaps having a wider network of connections - larger than just your immediate family - would be a better buffer against loneliness.

In societies with more dense familial/societal networks people just have more people around. Imagine if you lived in a town with half of your extended family. Say 4 aunts and uncles and 30 cousins (of different degrees 1st, 2nd etc). You'd know more immediate family but also they'd know people who you would have gotten to know.

If you lost contact with parents or a spouse you wouldn't end up knowing nobody. You would have a rich network to fall back on.

Now there are issues with this. You might not like everyone and everyone might know your business, which is annoying - but you'd probably suffer from less loneliness.
> I guess I’m just lucky in that I enjoy what I do: getting to sit at home all day, making my own hours, coding an app I love and which is used by others to create novels and screenplays and other stuff - what more motivation do I need?

It's fantastic that it's still possible to write an App like Scrivener solo or with a very small team.
You’re correct as far as I know, and now I wonder why the Netflix people didn’t elaborate on this choice.
I assume woodruffw is referring more broadly to what used to be called the military-industrial complex, in addition to direct military staffing.

The gist of the idea is that the Department of Defense is a (the?) major funder of all sorts of industry in the US, typically in the form of contracts for products and services.

Yes ok, but this is not very limiting and doesn't make this approach a ridiculous and failed one to start with, as the OP originally suggested and those languages which do it disprove already?
I don't know what's cooking there either. The point is the end-user experience has been nothing like what these Nostradamuses have been predicting.

There is no cost for making wild predictions that turn out wrong. In real life if a friend did that you'd begin discounting his talk. On social media that doesn't seem to happen, because there's a sucker born every minute, and crowds like to indulge in mood affiliation and emotional venting rather than rational analysis.
yeah like where do people expect deep connections to form from? are they supposed to spring forth, fully formed from the swipe of an app? no! they take work and time and effort and form from shallower connections.

Even if there aren't, it makes sense to clarify to media that this is an open source project made without any business commitments. I've seen other businesses do something similar; internally it reduces friction with the business admin when devs want to open source something.

Actually the reference to the joke about cache invalidation being hard is about something else than the article is actually about: the article is about undesired dirty caches and concurrency, while the original joke is about designing algorithm to invalidate caches.

From the Big Nate strip:

> Some people might say comics aren't important, but those people are blockheads. Y'know what I say to them? Read "Peanuts."

> Charlie Brown never wins a game or gets a valentine or kicks the football, but he's a champ in my book.

I still can't understand how the 2015 film decided that Charlie Brown would strike up a relationship with the little red-haired girl. It gives the movie a happy ending.

But if Peanuts has one message, it's that Charlie Brown doesn't get happy endings. That ending to the film flew in the face of everything that ever happened in the comic strip.
Did you respond to the wrong post?.

> Chechen War has nothing to do with Georgia/Ukraine/NATO/etc. It's a different conflict.

Yes, but it's just another example of Russia being imperialist and invading other countries it feels it has a right to.

> Moldova was attacked by both Russia and Ukraine you simpleton.

The Ukrainians were volunteers, but I guess it was a simple mistake to make, leaving that part out wasn't it.

> The war in Georgia was the result of NATO welcoming Georgia.

So you're saying Georgia was invaded because it tried to join an alliance to defend itself?. Super justifiable war.

> Not a single country before the 2007-2008 events joined NATO to get protected from Russia. You are throwing misleading facts and misrepresenting the reality.

Poland would disagree with this, Poland joined NATO in 1999, inpart at least to protect itself from Russia.

> NATO knew that Russia would attack Ukraine because that's what they did in Georgia–for the same fucking reason. That's why the US was packing Ukraine with weapon since 2014.

NATO has been providing weapons and training to Ukraine to defend itself since 2014, since Russias invasion first started.

> You are naïve as a 5 year old.

Insults like this are against the hackernews rules, please be more respectful in the future.

> I lived in Ukraine for 30+ years and then 10+ years in the US. I know these two countries very well. You know shit.

Appeal to authority is a great logical fallacy but unfortunately, even this appeal is impossible to check as you are using a throwaway. regardless though, just because you "lived" in a country doesn't mean you know anything.
I like this idea and have been wondering about it.

Right now it is considered normal for every company to keep personal data, but what if it was forbidden to store anything for longer than say 10 minutes and it is only allowed to keep anything in random access memory, not persistent storage? What if the person dealing with a company could generate a random identifier to allow for time-limited access to their data through a standard API?

What if the companies/organizations were by law required to ONLY access personal data through that API with all access being logged and auditable by the individual? If during an audit code (due to reasonable suspicion) it is found that the company is storing the data instead of reading and forgetting immediately, the company would face heavy fines.

Would this be enough? Probably not to deter bad actors... Maybe companies should not have access to any personal data in the first place? Only post office/delivery company would need to know where the mail for temporary ID must be delivered to.

Same with phone numbers, they don't need them. Only phone companies need to be able to resolve the temporary ID to make a call. It would FINALLY deal with the spam even though I guess phone companies are skimming money off that, so they won't be too happy if the legislation required it.

Exceptions can be made, but if there are fewer exceptions, the data would be far more tightly controlled.
Don't need multiple dimensions for that.

0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 1.0, 2.0

To 2.0, 1.0 is closest.

To 1.0, 0.3, 0.2 and 0.1 are closer.

When you look up at the stars, do you see the constellations? When astronomers refer to V509 Cassiopeiae, they believe in the shape of the stars they call Cassiopeia. Do they believe the shape is a real thing? Of course — I can draw it for you, it’s there every night and looks like a W! Of course not — you cannot touch it, it’s just an artifact of how we try to understand the Universe and our place in it!

The God of Christianity is a concept that is there if you believe in him, and is not there if you don’t. To prove his existence is meaningless. It provides the same struggle as trying to prove that Cassiopeia exists, or what it means at an atomic level to touch an object, or whether complex multicellular organisms are one single being or a colony of many beings.

Comparing your description to the content of the Wikipedia article I cannot help but feel that you're giving a biased summary, particularly by using the loaded term "far right" which is nowhere suggested in the article, and by bringing up the claims of anti-Semitism which appear to have been mostly based on their criticism of the USA's uncritical support for the state of Israel [0].

While some in the far right may sympathise with this foundation's non-interventionist approach, I don't think it's accurate to describe them as far right through guilt by association.

Not really: it still can't tell the difference between a null value and a missing field which is different when working with APIs as a missing field usually means "don't touch it" while null means "nullify it"
