Hi HN,

Hope you’re enjoying the holidays.

I saw a friend using similar tool but was deprecated. So I decided to build this project for personal use.

It’s a small note talking webapp, and extension right on the browser new tab (extension submission is being review)

It supports
- offline notes by default
- sign in to sync notes

What’s your side project for this holiday season?

It is great to see immutable distributions becoming more popular. One thing that Ubuntu does very well however is the 5-year standard support for LTS releases (up to 10 years available via extended support).

I wasn't able to find any information on VanillaOS's support roadmap. Since the project's goal is to have stability of the underlying OS, it would be great if VanillaOS had an LTS-like support plan in mind.

Kind of, but not really? I see it more transforming into something else. It definitely seems like a lot of people my age and younger are more cautious about social media compared to most millennials, but that doesn't really seem to stop us from using it. I'm really happy to see more of a shift towards open platforms like Mastodon, I'm just not sure where that's going to head.
I'm not even sure homes are depreciating assets any more.

The increase in labor costs may now exceed the rate of home degradation.

There's program much like that in the book Starting Forth, called "File system"
it has 3 screens, if you take only what you need , you may be done in 1 or two screens, and you can store other data in that system like names and phone numbers.

trick is you erase record memory you don't need , which then gets reused on next record add, it checks if it is empty.
Sure, but they may make some noise which could lead to better service next time (i.e. a feedback loop). Otherwise, only the consumer is punished and it is less likely that things will improve.

You definitely can. The experience is a mixed bag: they aren't often optimized for no-touch devices, and they often need more resources than low end devices can provide. But they definitely run without much work to install. I thought i was smart getting my kids Chromebooks but the frustrations about how poorly they run supercedes the value in my opinion.

I'd expect your claim to be true whenever the callee is inlined into the caller. In this case, the compiler has all the relevant information at the right point in time. As other commenters have pointed out, by enabling inlining the author has gone down a rabbit hole somewhat unrelated to the question, because any copies can be simply elided.

If there's no inlining at play, I'd expect vast differences to be possible. For example, imagine a chain of 3 functions - f calls g, g calls h, where one of the arguments is a 1kB struct and the options are passing by copy or by borrowing. In this case, each stack frame will be 1kB in size in the copy case and there will be a large performance overhead as opposed to the by-reference case. One would expect simply calling the function to be similar in overhead to an uncached memory load.

Within a single crate the inlining is possible, with multiple crates it's only possible with LTO enabled (and I'm not sure how _probable_ it is that the inlining would occur).

In either case, the difference between a 32 byte and 8 byte argument in terms of overhead is likely meaningless - the sort of thing to be optimized if profiling says it's a problem as opposed to ahead of time.
If you think there is no difference between the food industry and real estate, then I am afraid that is a failing of your own deductions.

The issue I forsee is deep pockets cornering specific markets and dictating the price to people who haven't got as much flexibility. Corporate scale slum lords, in other words. It is already happening with private real estate investors.

Anyone can ship in and sell potatoes, I can even buy them online. The market forces work because I have so much flexibility. Not everyone can move, nor should they have to move just because money moves in. People live in communities not investment potfolios.

I wonder how these might look. Building relationships is really hard and ultimately that's what's needed. To build relationships, you need repeated exposure and need to overcome an initial barrier of familiarity to get to the point where you can have meaningful interactions and not just smalltalk.

Given men are also bad at maintaining relationships, I wonder if something like different, more communal living arrangements would be beneficial. I am thinking something like a dorm, but more luxurious with the common areas being more of a focus.

An idea that might accelerate overcoming the initial familiarity barrier might be something like the "question to fall in love" that made their rounds a few years back. I've seen a speed-dating version of similar, increasingly intimate questions build enormous feeling of trust within ~30 minutes as an icebreaker at a T-Group.

"I'm surprised immutable systems aren't more popular."

In the security world, an immutable system is an unpatchable system. If a 0-day is found in the system image, you can't fix it, you have to get a new image going. This causes wasted personnel-hours, wasted money, and some times wasted hardware if the image happens to be on a ROM-type of data storage. I've seen immutable systems on WORM HDDs. The people running those types of systems quickly got tired of having to do hardware replacements for every patch.

One thing to note is that if you're not on Amazon, your book will still be on Amazon. Cory Doctorow points out[0] that their copyright detection systems only detect reuploads of on-platform books, and people scamming Audible with duplicates of books are rampant. I suspect this is part of why there isn't a huge contingent of angry authors jumping ship, because they can't reliably deny Amazon their work anyway.

You're supposed to be able to just tell platforms "no, take this down". That comes from DMCA 512, that thing that indie creators absolutely hate because its far more useful as a censorship tool than for copyright enforcement[1]. If someone else reuploads your book to Amazon you have to actually find that reupload, buy it to validate that it is your work, take it down (and dox yourself in the process), and then repeat, forever.

Outright infringement isn't the only scam either - ghostwriting and reselling lightly-edited GPT-3 copy[2] is also rampant on the platform, and there's even people selling courses on how to resell fake books[3]. This may eventually destroy Amazon's brand reputation, but it takes a long time to fall down the Trust Thermocline[4] when you're a giant like Amazon.

The $10 royalty punishment makes absolutely no sense to me and I do not understand what the hell Amazon's motive is there. Except perhaps to bluff-charge indie writers into devaluing their work ahead of time. It reminds me of how Apple pushed for $0.99 songs for so long that the RIAA was willing to go DRM-free just to be able to charge more for popular singles. Except Amazon is also really, really pro-DRM, and so is the rest of the traditional publishing industry, which is running the same grift Amazon is at a different stage of production.

> If you feel like you're seeing a lot of cynicism directed at "free markets", this is likely why: it's a reaction against these extremely vocal "drown-government-in-a-bathtub" types.

Yea but that’s bad because it’s unsophisticated and it also creates people who start to believe that the market mechanic is a bad thing or the source of their problems, when it’s not. This creates bad ideas, cynicism because you can’t take action against this invisible market, or people lose interest in participating in government.

> The other problem, of course, is that as I said, the two are often called "free markets" interchangeably without clarification, which leads to much confusion.

We can build housing much more efficiently and cheaply than we could 60 years ago, yet it's never been harder to buy a house.

The law of supply and demand only works as expected when used in an extremely simplified model.

If you account for all the other real factors (corporate greed, governmental intervention, NIMBYsm) that are skimmed over by economists, it becomes clear that the law of supply and demand should never be used alone to forecast future economic conditions.

It's not really mainstream. For tech workers and middle management maybe but certainly not blue collar, medicine, retail, transportation, HORECA, etc. For perspective, the majority of adults in the US don't have college degrees, narrowing down their opportunities for work that can be done via Zoom. It was a deep point of resentment between the cozy work from home laptop class who could have all their needs met through delivery apps and everyone else during lock-downs.

No. The post-Buffalo changes included some direct changes like the rules on pilot fatigue. They also included some proactive changes like the 1500 rule.

The benchmarks lack the standard deviation, so the results may well be equivalent. Don't roll your own micro-benchmark runners.

References may get optimized to copies where possible and sound (i.e. blittable and const), a common heuristic involves the size of a cache line (64b on most modern ISAs, including x86_64).

Using a Vector4 would have pushed the structure size beyond the 64b heuristic. You would also need to disable inlining for the measured methods.
I have a number of friends who, a decade ago, jumped down the super woke rabbit hole.

> Within a single crate (more specifically, codegen unit) the inlining is possible

Cross-crate inlining happens all the time. In order to be eligible for inlining, a function needs to have its IR included in the object's metadata. This happens automatically for every generic function (it's the only way monomorphization can work), and for non-generic functions can be enabled manually via the `#[inline]` attribute (which does not force inlining, it only makes it possible to inline at the backend's discretion).

However, as you, say, if you have LTO enabled then "cross-crate" inlining can happen regardless, since it's all just one giant compilation unit at that point.
