Portability between different compilers was a problem. People complain about C's portability, but at least you can rely on `fopen` existing. The best that Modula-2 offered was a semi-standard InOut module that provided stdin/stdout functionality (no files).

Eventually a real standard library was added by the ISO standard, but that was published about 10 years too late to have an impact.
To nitpick - you are wrong. A crucifix is the cross of Christ. It can still be a symbol of Christ's crucifixion while "just" being a cross without any Christ handing on it. The whole value of finding of the pendant that it shows very early Christian iconography in England.
If anyone is interested in Infrastructure as Software, I also recommend giving Pulumi a try. I've been using Terraform for a couple of years, Pulumi for about a year and I think that Pulumi is on a completely different level.

It also supports higher level abstractions (Component Resources). For example: check out AWS EKS provider.
It’s interesting to me that so many people are upset when a mundane piece of software is banned, but were relatively content when factually accurate statements and news articles were banned.

I’m not a fan of this Twitter policy but I was also not a fan of what the company was censoring before. Its absurdly stretched definition of disinformation was a problem, but one that fit the political goals of many tech types who are now upset about the Mastodon thing.
You would fall into the "of the world" camp. There are others, a relative minority but prevalent everywhere, that don't want to be a part of this, nor want their children involved. You will likely never interact with them, and their thoughts and feelings will never reach you -- but that doesn't mean their worlds are inane (or rather, more inane than any other).

The deterioration of quality within the "elite universities" is self-evident if one goes by more nuanced measure than "how high up the industrial and political ladder" its graduates reach. What the contrary is, is a matter of values that I will not be elaborating upon (this conversation has become tiring).
Progress on the Block Protocol
Unfortunately, capitalism tends to destroy attempts at being social. This is evident when social media starts amplifying posts to get more 'engagement' with the intent to sell more advertising whereas a more social version would be to amplify posts that are interesting or resonate with a lot of people. Hacker News is an example of social media that attempts to not fall into that monetising trap.

The biggest problem that I see with social media is when it teams up with political influence and then we end up with problems such as Cambridge Analytica and democracy gets damaged.
There is a whole lot of bigging up their current product. That blog post is part of their marketing campaign. And the entire point of it is so people will get to their product.

Also:

* it's mixed up with all their other marketing material for this product.

* it's in their current product's repository

It's more likely people will stumble across it when looking at their product.

As I said in my edit. The reason for it being on their GitHub is to increase the likihood of GitHub stars which they use as social proof.

Reverse ETL is where you take data from your warehouse and load it back to places you might typically use as sources. Eg you might send data from BigQuery to Google Ads, Intercom, your transactional DBs, Google Workspace, etc.

It's not really reporting in the visualisation or "send a PDF to a human" sense
Taking data from a database and pushing it into another tool, not just a static report
I didn't notice it specifically mentioned in the article, but it's worth noting that the Huns were most likely a completely different group than the Hungarians. Historical evidence of what happened is thin, but one likely theory is that the Huns terrorized Europe first, and then the 13 Magyar tribes (modern Hungarians) migrated from north-central Asia and took advantage of the Huns' fearsome reputation whereby Europeans began calling them Hungarians. Modern Hungarians still refer to themselves as Magyar, terms derived from Hun tend to be used by foreigners. Either way, modern Hungarians are genetically Slavic and European. The language of the Magyars has long outlasted the genes. The name Attila is still popular in modern Hungary though.
I've seen papers where CRISPR was used to modify mouse embryos so the mice grow up to express certain proteins in certain organs (the proteins were useful for modeling disease). The differences between this and human modification are probably that nobody minds losing a bunch of mouse embryos, and that a lot of human traits are polygenetic and thus not a simple matter of adding a single protein. That said, it's only a matter of time until someone unscrupulous demonstrates human gene modification in some poorly regulated polity.

Pumped hydro has been a concept for a while now for grid storage of power; one of the limitations of it is just the rather unique geography required. Most places with adjacent reservoirs and enough vertical separation between them also have cottages, roads, and other infra that make it hard to be constantly draining and filling.
The far more common pathway to steroids is the 40 something man who wakes up feeling tired, sore, and grumpy and decides he has to skip the workout today. Then he realizes he's doing this more and more. He discovers TRT, gets a prescription, and feels better. Not psychologically, though that too - but physically, in that he can continue living his life at the pace he was accustomed to. He's not getting huge, he's just trying to slow the natural descent of age. For some people, working out in some fashion most days of the week is their life: their physical and social connection and outlet. When it's removed, it doesn't just mean they're not setting that record or getting those clicks, it means their everyday quality of life goes down. And it's recoverable, with TRT, and some of their friends are already doing it, so they do it. They don't have heart attacks, rages, or become massive, and they're probably pretty honest about it, not that you've have any cause to even wonder in the first place. They just get to keep going.
Their chart seems to indicate that this is a qualitative improvement where the kind of fusion produced substantially changed.

Thank you for pointing me to Pacer, that was a fascinating read. They were apparently also considering digging a new panama canal with fusion bombs...

In 1972 they decided it wasn't economical based on fuel price compared to yellowcake, but fissile fuel isn't the primary cost of fission power and the engineering costs of pacer would seem to be much lower.

The example on the homepage is a good example of why I don't think I'd find this useful. Using Node or Go or whatever to create a file in an S3 bucket based on an incremented value from DynamoDB isn't that hard. The code necessary is maybe a few tens of lines using the official libraries. Actually setting up all the infrastructure to get it to work, with monitored quotas to check things won't fall over, with properly secured IAM profiles, etc is where the all of the pain lies for me.
> As the previous criticisms are starting to become less and less tenable, increasing attention is now shifting towards the more salient point of raw materials needed for the transition towards a sustainable energy system. Practically all research in this field finds critical limits for material availability. This may be a major concern and should be addressed with more consideration and analyses to truly test the material limits.

Yes. There are real critical minerals, as well as real broad overviews that highlight them without going into industry specific roadmaps for addressing them.

The limits are entirely unrelated to the paper you first linked because the Michaux analysis does things like assuming all new PV will be CdTe or there will be weeks of battery storage for any electrolysers built in the form of NMC811 batteries.

Trying to conflate the former with the latter or use overviews to pretend said roadmaps don't exist is just as dishonest as your first attempt.

> Reverse ETL enables companies to move transformed data from their cloud warehouse out into operational business tools, doing the reverse of ETL (which enables companies to ingest data into their data warehouse for transformation and modeling). It’s a new approach to making data actionable and solving the “last mile” problem in analytics by empowering business teams to access—and act on—transformed data directly in the SaaS tools they already use every day.

For commuting, you charge at home with a much slower charger than this. You start each morning at a high charge %, and never stop at any charger at all.

The fast charger is for road trips - at the moment, the number and reliability of high-speed charge points is probably a bigger constraint than the relative speed of this model versus others.

Yeah, the example looks like an API demonstration rather than a language demonstration. I would have assumed the API functions were keyword oriented IF it was a programming language.

I think Murdoch is an excellent example to compare against Musk, right now. Not because he’s an exemplar of the non-interventionist, but because he’s all business. He will buy businesses, that are profitable, that present ideas against his current, perceived, goals. This is hedging his bets, somewhat.
Musk, on the other hand, buys business, regardless of profitability, that suit his personal goals. Then make managing decisions based on whim.
The difference isn’t that Murdoch lets others do the talking and Musk does his own, for better or worse. It’s that Murdoch makes business decisions and Musk makes emotional decisions.

To be clear - I’m not trying to suggest one is better than the other. Just that they are a very interesting comparison.
- work with an optometrist to get the right eyeglasses, if they are too nearsighted they may make your eyes deteriorate faster

- 20/20/20 - every 20 minutes let your eyes relax then focus on something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This can reduce the strain from focusing close

Going to assume "cloud" is the package/module and "bring" is similar to something like "import" etc. so it's probably because "cloud" in this case is a module/package that you need to import to use, so the language itself isn't actually cloud-oriented, but rather the standard framework (if you can call it that) is cloud-oriented.
I feel like HN is being especially pedantic and jaded about this specifically and I don't really get why.

Scientifically this is absolutely a breakthrough, just like the detection of the Higgs boson was despite them already having expected it or just like LIGO's detections of gravitational waves were despite that being entirely what it was built for or just as JWST's detections of galaxies much older than those seen from other telescopes was despite that being part of the entire point of dumping billions into it. Ingenuity's first flight was also hailed as a breakthrough despite that being exactly what it was designed to do.

In every case we had an idea of how to solve a problem and the outcome was generally expected. All that had changed was that the data had been collected of the solution working, just as it has been in this case.

To put it differently, it's a breakthrough because after decades of work, the National Ignition Facility can actually achieve the thing in its name.
And what does that have to do with the upthread claim that there's a push to require passports for domestic travel? Which is simply untrue.

I dunno. During the earlier age of piracy (before the described "golden age"), I was seeing talk from a lot of less-computer-literate people who were doing just fine with pirating shows.

More recently, there's even a new kind of piracy that has arisen: pirate streaming websites, where you just go and watch whatever shows in the browser, and as long as you have a decent adblock, you proooobably won't get a nasty virus.

Where there's a will, there's a way, and there's a lot of will among younger people who aren't already indoctrinated into the idea that we must accept what shows our corporate overlords give us.

For which region of which country for what requirements? There are a lot of EVs available now and "best" is whatever will be best for your use case in particular. You should decide what kind of vehicle you want first (body, price, features, FWD\RWD\AWD, etc.).

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is one example if you want a starting point. There are many others to choose from.
I think having the correct screen brightness is important so you don’t have to squint as much. I also use dark mode which seems to help with contrast. I don’t turn on overhead light it’s too bright but I use an LED strip on my desk with red light which has been nice. My optometrist recommended not wearing glasses for the computer but if you do he said to get a blue light filter lens.
When I read this:

> But everything ALGOL-68 did, PL/I did earlier and better.

I just wanted to write "Not so". As much as I appreciate the OP in general, his knowledge of Algol 68 is limited. Algol 68 was more than the introduction of first class datatypes. Parallel programming comes to mind. In comparison to PL/I, there were other features such as automatic memory management. It helped to have had John McCarthy in the commitee.
The monitor is not the active device in this situation, the host (Mac/PC/SBC) is.

The negotiation is done when the host initiates it, usually when the cable is connected to a port or when coming back from deeper sleep/standby.

If the host remains active after the negotiation, the monitor doesn't go through the process again, I explained how that worked for me here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34051428

The problem that OP has is when the host being switched to is in standby. In that mode, most devices deactivate the video ports completely, disconnecting the monitors and removing them from the hardware device tree.

Switching to the inactive input without waking up the host device will usually show a "No signal" message on the monitor. Waking the device before switching to the input could improve the waiting time, but that is an implementation detail depending on both the monitor and the OS and can't be guaranteed.
Enlarged font sizes and periodic breaks where I get up and walk around do wonders for me.

You didn’t mention your age, but your eyesight can change quite a bit over time. I would recommend getting a new prescription and new glasses. Make sure the lenses have an anti-reflective coating and wear them all the time.

No, AT&T was forbidden by law to take advantage of Bell Labs work commercially, hence why UNIX spread into universities, the famous lions book came to be[0], and tapes with source code where shared with a license cost that was symbolic versus the 1970's mainsframe OSes.

When this situation changed during the mid-80's, AT&T was rather quick to sue Berkley university regarding BSD, forbid the further publishing of the lions book (which kept being widespread via black market copies), however by the time these events took place the influence of UNIX and C across the industry was already quite visible.

This is very interesting. Anecdotally, I never had a problem with wheat until I moved to Europe. I'd love to see a comparison of fungal toxins in American wheat compared to European wheat. Not that it's easy these days to be aware of where the wheat I'm eating was grown. Modern supply chains are incredibly complex.
Seems like a reasonable effort and we probably need more of this kind of stuff. But still I think the industry should focus more on educating developers to prevent them from introducing mostly unnecessary accidental complexity to today's typical apps rather than inventing new layers to manage it.
