Lots of rarer or older architectures are not in LLVM e.g. alpha, ia64, HP-PA. The LLVM backends which do exist for such also tend to have been exercised less and thus me more buggy (I think PPC/spe had a fair amount of issues there but it might have gotten better).

You can see something of a summary over on https://builds.Debian.org/status/package.php?p=rustc&suite=s... the BD-Uninstallable entries are unsupported archs, though some of them might be due to rustc or bringup bugs (e.g. m68k is supposedly supported by llvm and rustc).

Then there’s embedded, on the more open side LLVM is slowly gaining ground but there’s also less open ecosystems where customising / forking gcc is pretty standard historically, and there’s not much LLVM can do.
A little OT: Interested in generative art in the browser, I recently stumbled on an implementation of Voronoi diagrams by none other than... gorhill!

Is that not what "rustc --emit=obj" does now?
What are your requirements? I'd suggest grabbing a pre-paid SIM from each of the major networks and see which gives you the best signal and speeds in the locations you frequent, but this may seem excessive to most.

I signed up to a 2 year 5G deal with EE shortly before moving out of London, now the signal and speed are junk and I'm stuck in a 2 year deal.

Given the absurd amount our "contracted" price increases by each year (my monthly payment went up ~15% on a SIM-only plan thanks to RPI or whatever excuse they use) I'd be tempted to go with someone like GiffGaff or similar next (they're an MVNO on O2 network) and just get monthly goody bags, then you can ditch them the minute you've had enough and want to get better service/signal/data etc.
I do software for a living so that gives you my level of ignorance of the real world.

I do have two question about solar

- is it “drivable” / “pilotable” ?

meaning reacting to surge in the grid? My understanding is that this feature is highly desirable for a grid.

- can we actually build enough solar panel, physically ?

Don’t we need some rare earth thingy that is not in sufficient quantity on our planet as far as we know ? ( follow up : if there is enough, will there be enough in 200 years ? )
No to AI Generated Images
Artists are afraid of AI. Maybe for good reasons? I personally feel that AI will change what it means to be an artist. But we still need people who knows how to use the AI/art tools well, who can fix the AI mistakes, who can nudge the AI in the right direction etc. The same way that modern 3D renders changed what a digital artist do but didn't make artists redundant.
There's no mention of "gold". It says on this here piece of paper: "I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of twenty pounds".

The implication that this £20 note is not actually £20. But ten £2 coins is coin-of-the-realm, and coin is what you can expect the Governor to hand over when you go to cash-in the promise.
Firefox 108 on macOS Monterey, works.
Yep.

Another way to look at it is markets are very powerful local optimisers - so if you rely on them exclusively you end up trapped in a rut.

Everyone hooked on naturally produced molecules that activate opioid receptors via your dark reward patterns, or indeed on synthetically produced and injected versions is not necessarily a globally optimal solution.

The job of government is to make sure the external costs, that are not immediately felt by the markets, are applied.

So the cost of addiction is put back on the sources of it, or the costs of pollution makes it's way back to the polluters.

That's what in essence good regulation is.

Obviously centrally deciding what's best for everything is of course doomed to failure - it's a massive under utilisation of talent and too centralised control is far too easy to lead to corruption and stagnation.

The trick is to find the right balance - and the right balance is a pragmatic one - not a clean ideological one - but you have to embrace that complexity, not try to over simplify.

So "wasting" money - with multiple people working on the same thing, or things that fail - is actually essential for innovation - markets work.

But at the very same time, it is important to have the confidence to state the obvious and take centralised action.

So if you leave the dealing of climate change to short term capital markets alone - you are signing up to it being much much worse before it get's any better. Something that you can avoid with collective action.
Perhaps disable some extensions?
Good, if you own a device like an iPhone or iPad, you should be able to do whatever you like with it, not be restricted to whatever Apple thinks is appropriate to run there.

Kinda makes me want to see the same thing applied to other forms of tech with app stores and limitations on what users can install too, like smart TVs, games consoles, smart watches, etc. If you own a device, you should be allowed to install what you want on it, original creators be damned.
These scandals can have an impact on the business, but it's true that it's not always that bad and companies can continue to be bad actors:

Just to expand on this more - you don't have to use ELK which is pretty resource and maintenance heavy, there are much easier and faster alternatives that don't need attentive care.

Throw Loki+Grafana on a single VM somewhere (or run it on your Kubernetes/Nomad/ECS/etc. cluster) and it will get you very far, as long as you plan ahead a bit (most notably, indexing happens at ingestion, so you need to have an idea of what you want from your logs or your queries will be slower).

Or use a SaaS like logz.io, AWS OpenSearch, Datadog, etc. Most support OpenTelemetry now, so switching data ingestion is quite easy (unlike dashboards and alerts).

It makes sense to have centralised logs pretty much as soon as you outgrow the "everything runs on this one box and my DR plan is a prayer" stage, IMO.

Runway numbering in one HN comment: it's the magnetic heading of the runway, minus the last digit. If more than one with the same heading, add L or R (for left/right) accordingly.

If more than one even with L/R markings, add 1 to the heading (or maybe take 1, not sure).
It is treating everyone equally if you don't interpret "equal" under kindergarten "everyone gets the same candy bar" rules. Progressive tax systems try to reduce societal inequality by sharing resources more equally. They recognize that often times high wealth and income come from chance and circumstance, rather than merit or hard work, and seek to rebalance the system.
The problem isn't that you can't use Apple Pay, but you can't release an app that works like Apple Pay because of features Apple do not allow others to use.

I think all these types of questions and statements do a good job assuming a disconnect between software and the real world, between humans and the systems we build. If I build a bridge and it collapses, nobody asks "where did bridge building go wrong?" If I cut corners on a bridge and it doesnt collapse, and create a culture of doing this such that other builders also do it, if I normalize misaligned incentives to those that pay me rather than those that drive on my bridge, and then they all start to collapse, we don't talk about bridge building failing us all. We talk about what we did, our behavior and what it caused.

The state of software, computing, social media, information availability, human rights on the internet, these are all because we, as in you and me, built something we knew was wrong for a paycheck, or at the very least overrepresented our skillset for a paycheck and delivered crap and swindled our employers and their customers. And questions like "where did software go wrong" are our way of passing the buck to a non entity, it's cowardly, it's pathetic, and every one of us, you and me, should take responsibility for what we have done, I mean literally, specifically, not some general collective truism, if not publicly at least when we look in the mirror by ourselves, and understand our role in the current state of the world, and either decide not to do it anymore or accept what we are.

"If you drink and drive, you're a fool and you were one even before you started drinking". Is that what you're trying to say?
Worse, they probably lost money. Many employees exercise their options anticipating a liquidity event so they can pay the long-term tax rates over the short-term rates. Anyone who exercised their options is probably underwater.. By A LOT. Fungible was really hot at one point. I can imagine employees losing $10k-100k if they thought a sale was coming.
I think ActivityPub isn't so much a protocol as it is an API. Doesn't matter that it has a spec, it's just something defined on top of HTTP. There' an API doc, you can implement it. Has some nice interop. Essentially ActivityPub is a Mastodon API at this point.

Twitter is a centralised platform, a Twitter protocol would just end up looking like a documented API spec which anyone could then implement. It's a bit like AWS S3. S3 has now been implemented by most of the major cloud providers and there's some other open source software that does it too. Does it make it a universal storage service? I'm not so sure, but at least you know you can get data in/out of these various clouds using it.

Social as a protocol came close in XMPP but anything in this feed/timeline model doesn't have a good solution yet and I'm not seeing ActivityPub as that either. I'd be more inclined to lean into an open API for social and a protocol for communication between services that lets us build on top of these things in a standardised way. Because even open APIs evolve and move too quickly to bake too deeply into a protocol. We need to strike a balance between the things that need to evolve versus the thing that need a stable interface. Protocols give us stability with an envelope for something that's constantly changing.
That makes zero sense to me.

If you could cure it, you could charge more than treatment - because it's more valuable to the person getting cured. If you had cancer with a 5 year expected survival rate, would you pick (arbitrary round numbers)

$10,000 per year in treatment to manage it but you've still got cancer.

$55,000 paid over 5 years, $5000 more than you would pay to just manage it, but you also don't have cancer any more.

Ask HN: What are essentials elements in an enterprise commerce stack?
Calling upon all commerce enthusiast.

I am curious to hear what others consider to be essentials elements (think OMS, ERP, PIM, etc.) in an enterprise (+$50-100m AR) ecommerce stack, and why.

Having worked in the industry for many years, I’ve seen numerous combinations of tools to constitute stacks. It obviously depends on the industry, but usually, at the center, you'll find OMSs and ERPs as these are business critical and often source of truth on operational data.

Lately, I’ve noticed a trend where businesses are consolidating their stack even though it might compromise the functionality of these different areas, so instead of using OMS + ERP + PIM + CMS, one might go with an extensible ERP (or commerce engine) as a sole provider to cover all areas. Cost and maintenance seem to be key driver for this trend. As a result, we now see ERPs moving into the PIM space, PIMs moving into the CMS space, CMSs moving into the PIM, etc.

As an addition to might first question, I'd love to also hear what you think this will evolve to in 5-10-15 years.

The "bundling strategy" seems to be a winner in lots of other industries - and we might see the same in ecommerce 5 years down the line.

And why do you need to justify that something should be made illegal just because your personal circumstances don't include it as an experience in your life? Unless something is explicitly (or sometimes implicitly) harmful to others, it should not be banned just because you don't live it. Part of even a basic respect for un individual freedoms means not automatically trying to ban things that don't rigidly fit a common notion of how you "should" live.

> Calling it a lottery is a disservice to the people who actually put in effort to create these games.

I think that both for simple and complex games there are those that nobody cares about and those that end up really popular. Sometimes it's about good marketing, sometimes it's about making what people actually want to play (instead of what you want to make), sometimes it's about developing it really well, other times it's just about being at the right place at the right time.

Those aren't mutually exclusive qualities, for certain titles you might need lots of one of them, or maybe a mix of all of them. In regards to what you actually need, it can indeed be a lottery and thinking that hard work (or marketing) is all that's necessary in ample amounts (or even is a pre-requisite) might be misleading, because it's not the full story.

For an example of how any mix of those aspects can lead to failure, look at the launch of Brigador, a well made game that was a flop: https://youtu.be/qUsuusNLxik

Then contrast that (years of development) with something like Vampire Survivors. Or maybe 2048, or Flappy Bird, or Wordle for examples of even simpler projects that were also easier to make, that still were immensely popular and much more successful.

RISCV Architecture to Tackle AMD and Intel x86 Chips with 192 Cores Built on 5nm
> This raw output from the Fairlight CMI sounds a lot like an 8-channel Amiga to my ears.

The Fairlight CMI DACs were 8 bit and worked at quite low sampling rate compared to today standards. Many samples also were taken in the 80s from synths and drum machines of that era, therefore they sound similar to those used with the Amiga (aside the CMI having much better anti aliasing filters). Probably many of these have been ported directly and used in tracker music, which at that time was rampant.
Since there is now OpenJDK, there was no reason to keep working on it, and both GCJ and the associated class libraries didn't follow the evolution in the Java language. In the beginning GCJ became only an ahead-of-time bytecode compiler, with the Java->bytecode translation done using ecj; but ultimately there was no reason to keep it around at all and it was deleted in GCC 7.

It's safe to assume that, even in developing nations, everyone has a cheap beat-down Android or iPhone.

Having a smartphone has become as ubiquitous as having electricity or running water now that nobody questions living without one. It's pretty much a must have.

I have always suffered colds worse than most people I know, to the point I avoided being up too close with those who have "nothing really" and they suggesting other ailments or reasons ... of course I'm basically litmus paper when it comes to colds so I soon know or not if they were right.

The last two years have been a marked change as people my way have isolated at lot more, less was being spread, and I fared better not catching any minor colds. However the last two years, 2020 I prob caught it early (Before tests) and slowly felt better by 2021. (Note: even after testing became available, in Australia one couldn't get tested unless one was already in a hot spot for covid, it took a while for that policy to change.) Strict state isolation meant very little of anything, it was bliss, however once it was open slather, I believe I've caught it again a few months back, only mild fatigue and bother, but bending down pulling out a weed out - I guess my body was pretty soft, and mildly tore a lot of side muscles on one side, still giving a bit of grief.

What I did find help me back in my 20s with a cold that was persistent for 3 years, quite accidentally I started taking a quarter to half a teaspoon a day of 100% pure creatine monohydrate. At that rate I noted a few positive side effects, one being my cold cleared out. The body should have enough from a good diet, mine wasn't and I was a bit over weight, however I was quite active, I was push biking for my main transport so around 60 miles in any given day of the work week. It could be the case less is more, as the significant improvements to resistance to colds and my mood that I noticed, don't seem to be duplicated or reported when the product found it's way into the fitness world. Ultimately I stopped using it because I was became far too mellow and the clowns were taking advantage of that.

Additionally medical research in 2021 pointed out L-arginine was helpful for having a better outcome whilst needing hospitalisation for covid-19 - but nothing concrete as far as I can recall in regard to if it lessens or helps in the initial phase of infection.

Then people will just trade using something else which serves as a store of value.

I often wonder how people can’t understand how that is one of the most important things it takes for something to be considered “money”. Once it loses that people will immediately exchange it for something else and society will just use shells as a medium of exchange.
