In my experience, the vast majority of examples where that fails is because of two reasons: project evolution that doesn't spend time re-evaluting memory managemnt together with the new requirements on the data, or inexperienced C coders. So that goes to my last point in my original post, yes as an industry there are use cases where rust is better because of the provably safe memory management (let's forget unsafe for the moment). But as a language you _can_ safely model those situations in C esily. The problem is that the solution is not robust to change. If you don't agree with that it will be me who doesn't know how to take what you say seriously

The difference is in your reaction to loss. If people spend a few dollars on the lottery, most people are not going to be upset when they lose.

Of course, they're are always people who spend everything they have on gambling, but most people agree that a lottery is something you expect to lose.

When people invest, they don't expect to lose. Of course course, there is always the risk of losing, but the difference between a lottery and an investment is that there is an expectation of loss in the former case.
We have caused devastation by CO2 emissions, not CO2 capture and storage.

Ask HN: Good books/resources on technology in agriculture
Hello HN,

I'm looking for some canonical resources on use of technology in agriculture. Not necessarily farm scale, can be anything from houseplants to small gardens, etc.

By technology I'm referring to sensors, robotics, any data-driven to make things more efficient or environmentally friendly.

Thanks!
But you are willing to comment on one!
> If you consider 60% of Android users, and 0% of iOS users, "widely supported," sure.

But that's what we're talking about, if it weren't for Apple Vulkan would be a near ubiquitous desktop and mobile API. Apple is the one standing in the way of that.

If Vulkan were a near ubiquitous mobile and desktop API, _maybe_ the console vendors would be more willing to tolerate it.
What kind of question is this? What's the point of any game looking and running better?

I am curious about the safety, though.

This minimal example causes a segfault:

type Foo = ref object
a: int

var foo: Foo = nil
echo foo.a

which wouldn't be simply possible to type in safe Rust.

The stupid laptop being a Russian forgery was misinformation/disinformation that affected an election. The NYT and WaPo have faced up to it by now, but middle-aged extreme partisans will post "cope" like they're millennials from 2015.

You don't need to pay to listen to music if you don't want to. The corpus of good music on YouTube for free is probably bigger than what you can listen to in a lifetime. If it isn't already it will be in time.

Napster's model won that war. Effortlessly. If you're paying for your music, you are paying on your terms based on the value you think is being provided to you. It isn't a legal framework making you do it.

I don't want to buy a new Switch, but I'm happy to buy games. I have one of the first Switches which have a bootloader exploit and a screen that got scratched up by the dock and both joycons with a nasty analog stick drift.

With Ryujinx and yuzu, I buy switch-exclusive games from eShop or the local games shop, dump them to my NAS, and stick them on my steamdeck and the machine whose display the nintendo switch dock used to be attached to. I've bought a lot more games from Nintendo once I was able to use my decent xbox controller, PC, etc, since I started doing this.

I mean "unwrap()" and "panic!() are right there for "blow up and don't care", if you're really just doing throwaway scripting that should be enough.

And the "?" operator is way more ergonomic for throwing actual errors up a level than all the boilerplate in Go.

The pattern matching with `match` `if let` and `let else` are pretty easy to use to unwrap Result and Option enums.

And then the "anyhow" or "thiserror" crates make it all more ergonomic.

The end result is something is much more readable than all the error handling in Go, while still being at least as safe if not more safe.

Plus you wind up playing with Monads without needing to know what the hell an endofunctor is.

And there's no null/nil, while Options have to be explicit and if you squint (because of the presbyopia) they look kinda like the nillable stuff in C# 8.0
> Also does every criticism of Rust have to have a prominent rebuttal?

Ha, sorry - I just really love Rust and want others to at least try it. I passed on it for _years_ because I thought like the OP (I used to code in Scala - I personally find THAT takes cognitive load to remember all the features. Rust feels small to me in comparison). Rust made me LOVE to code again and I just think there must be others out there who would feel the same if they just tried it.

> Some people don't like Rust and that's okay.

Agreed, I'm sure it isn't for everyone.

Twitter made $5bil in 2021. Do you really think this or the next quarter, post-Musk acquisition, post-him running off big name advertisers, will even approach any of the worst quarters from the last 3 or 4 years under previous management?

Sure. But make sure you also conflate freedom with people dying from the opioid epidemic, the huge drug problem in San Francisco and homeless encampments everywhere and the complete and utter failure to build one rail line connecting LA and SF.

All of these problems occur because the US values individual freedoms over central authority. You will note:

Freedom doesn't imply any sort of longevity Either.

The problem with the west is that freedom is viewed as a sort of moral truth.

People assume that an authoritarian society is bad and that a society with freedom is good.

The truth is far more complex. What I say is an aspect of the truth, as is what you say.

What truly should absolutely never be conflated is the idea that one of these truths overrides the other.
I honestly don't. My first degree was in philosophy, but it wasn't an area I focused on. I'd be surprised if no-one has done something on the topic more rigorous than fly-by internet comments by the likes of me - some of the heterodox economists perhaps? Or eco-philosophers?

It's long been clear to me that the theoretical end of the economics spectrum doesn't supervene over real physical systems. It's a technically fancy adumbration of fictions (money etc). Historically-informed political economy is, of course, a different matter.
Do you think it's reasonable to assume that actors wouldn't take the risk in order to get paid in an industry that is notoriously competitive to get paid in? I could see a lot of people simply chalking it up to "Well, hopefully nothing bad happens...?" That is also assuming they even fully appreciate the risk that they'd be taking on. It certainly doesn't seem like it would be in the interest of the ad agency to make them aware of their share of culpability.

Those are all pronounced like "dye", not "day"/"aye".

That has a "eh" (like "bet") between the "I" and the "n".

> cried, denied, ...

Again, that's "dye", not "day"/"aye".

(Also I wasn't counting contractions of words ending in "-y" + a suffix, since that seemed clearly unrelated to the German loanword process, but that's more of YMMV thing.)

Edit: wait, you were pronouncing "aye" like "I", weren't you? I assumed not since it makes more sense to use, well, "I" for that. Or even "eye". Bloody accents, and bloody six monophthongs and two offglides packed into five(-ish) letters.

Although that doesn't cover "ee", and "science", "diet", "quiet", etc still aren't examples (the "I" is the pronunciation only of "i", with "e" producing a subsequent "t(e)ch" sound.

Lots of kids.
Interesting article and story. I don't rightly recall ever hearing about this particular incident. I was 8; so I wonder if/when details were released to the public. You really wonder -- this would be a hugely dangerous incident and very embarrassing for the general public to find out about it, so you'd expect that the military would keep a lid on it, so to speak, for as long as possible. The cat was out of the bag by 1988, because a film was made about the incident, so it says.
This is an annoying post to me. You don’t understand it, but here’s your understanding, and now you’re asking for a cited source that answers the question in your particular framework? Are you asking a question or are you trying to argue a point With plausible deniability of intent to make it seem like you’re seeking knowledge from an unbiased neutral position?

Do you have a citation that the inclusion of crypto qualifies to make this a novel domain outside the SEC’s authority per the norms of things like marketing of securities? Can I dodge the SEC’s authority if I market my new security which is created by my new PonziSplooks technology? No, I cannot.
It is perhaps unnecessary, and I don't have any data that would support that it makes things better, but I am basically guessing that in the training set of {mostly the entire internet} the responses to questions that include "please" might be ever so slightly higher quality! Perhaps it is just a superstition...

From a guy who laid bricks in a FTX office, to Tom brady, draw us a line. Let's see how deep guilt by association goes in your head, and how you would regulate this.
But how do you define "celebrity" in a legal sense. Why is Jimmy Noname not culpable but Chris Pratt would be? And what if Jimmy Noname did an FTX ad and the following year got the lead role in the most successful movie of 2023? Is he retroactively a celebrity endorsement?

Mercedes' Formula 1 car had like 6 FTX ads on it this season. Why isn't Mercedes or Lewis Hamilton in this class action?
> Once inside the well, the microbes began breaking down the residual oil hydrocarbons in there—dregs that would be unprofitable to extract—to generate hydrogen and CO2.

I'm assuming tax payers will be on the hook to give oil corporations billions of dollars in "carbon credits" for capturing the carbon that they would otherwise have otherwise polluted in the course of their petroleum profiteering.

We use the GPT2 tokenizer (which is apparently the same as the GPT3 tokenizer) to count the number of tokens in the extracted input text and brutally truncate the input text to keep it under the limit. There is a lot of room for more finesse in this area if anyone wants to help out. See open issues in github.
You are making an interesting argument but I am having a bit of difficulty in understanding it.

So instead of saying: does program X with input X halt?

You redefined the problem to be: does program X with input X halt within T time steps?

Then you reach the conclusion: A' halts with input A' iff A says A' does not halt within the desired time bound with input A'.

But OK, imagine that we define the time bound T to be 10 steps and so A can always tell you whether a program halts within 10 steps, and always gives the correct answer in 1 step. What does that tell us?

> Then we can write a program A' that runs A with the input. If A says that the input halts (within the bound), A' enters an infinite loop.

So:

1. If A says (in 1 step) that X halts in the first 10 time steps, then A' enters an infinite loop.

2. If A says (in 1 step) that X doesn't halt in the first 10 time steps, then A' halts (say, in the second step).

Now you run A' with A' as input and:

1. If A says (in 1 step) that A' halts in the first 10 time steps, then A' enters an infinite loop.

2. If A says (in 1 step) that A' doesn't halt in the first 10 time steps, then A' halts (say, in the second step).

But here's the thing: A can only efficiently, correctly and always prove whether X halts if A is able to use more memory than X would use (otherwise we'd run into the exact same undecidability problem as with Turing machines).

This implies that besides the time bound, A also needs to analyze whether X halts within a defined memory bound.

So when you run A' with A', for A to work correctly then A would have to use more memory than A' would use, which is a contradiction because A' needs to use as much or more memory than A.

So isn't it impossible to use A' with A' as an input if you want A to always give you a correct answer, regardless of the time complexity bound? Because the memory bound would always be exceeded.

Does that actually prove that it's impossible to construct such a time-efficient A that works for all X that use less memory, or does it only prove that it's impossible to run A with A' as input correctly because the memory bound would always be exceeded?

I'm in a 1950 sqft home and find it way too small (2 little kids with tiny rooms, one big open great room that combines dining room, living room and kitchen). I think layout makes a big difference too .. if you have multiple floors, you end up with wasted space. Also, basements and garages are not counted, and they make a big difference.

I'm comparing to SF and NYC. It's definitely the cleanliness. If it wasn't for residents cleaning it up, those tiny alleyways in tokyo would just accumulate shit to the point where it's disgusting to even walk through it.

Residents in SF and NYC don't bother so it all goes to shit.

In terms of pollution, LA probably has the worst pollution but it's cleaner then SF and NYC. So it doesn't correlate. It's not the pollution. Pollution correlates more with car usage, of which LA takes the cake.

Griminess more has to do with population density, Of which, Tokyo takes the cake and also bucks the trend.
I guess my perspective is more so that many folks on HN openly celebrate HN, and feel that it is objectively good, and folks who don't agree with that are firmly ostracized. Criticism of HN doesn't do well here.

Conversely I don't know of a single person who uses Twitter who doesn't believe it to be an absolute hellsite of inane misery.

Twitter is quite self aware, HN... not so much.
> It does not. That only means that you if you, say, want to analyze how a program behaves when ran in a computer with 16 GB of state, you need to analyze it on a computer that has more than 16 GB of state.

Then we must differ on what the "halting problem" refers to. I would say that a computer suffers from the halting problem if there is no program it can run that can determine whether arbitrary programs it can run halt or not. You seem to agree that this is the case for a computer with a fixed amount of memory (as you say, a computer with more memory is needed to analyze all programs for such a computer).

I can then only ask what is this thing that is not the halting problem (as I understand it) that you think does not exist for computers in the real world?
After watching the Ad again, I agree with you.

I am an (amateur, non professional) artist and I am a big supporter of AI generated art tools.

The main issue is that anyone can write a simple prompt and get 85% of the way to an image that previously required a decade of experience to create.

But that last 15% is where real artists differentiate themselves. It’s the last 15% that can’t be faked if you don’t have a sense of artistic direction and discretion.

I strongly disagree with “why bother honing it” as well. If anything, being able to get to the “honing” stage so quickly is what makes these tools so powerful. I’m sure if Gordon Ramsey had to butcher his own chicken, grind his own grain for flour, and churn his cream into butter, he wouldn’t spend as much time on the finishing and plating of a chicken sandwich.

Yes, the space is making the same mistakes but that has more to do with the nature of humanity and its tendency toward corruption. It does feel like a missed opportunity, but intellectually I am pretty convinced the corruption was inevitable.

That said, this is all growing pains. It’ll pass.

The price of crypto does not need to stay high for the benefits to be present. It just needs to stay above the price level where an adversary can simply buy a significant percentage of the network.

Skurka is of course correct that it’s easy to overwhelm the Gore-Tex membrane when you are working hard and perspiring. But this is not exactly breaking news… there’s a reason pit zips and soft shells were invented. Making a big point of this, sort of feels like shooting fish in a barrel.

Unfortunately if you read his other writing about Gore-Tex (and waterproof breathable membranes in general), it is clear he does not understand how the technology actually works. He refers constantly to ambient humidity, which is irrelevant, and even gets some facts about humidity wrong.
