> There was a time when you have to install a dedicated sound card in order to have audio coming out from your PC. You have a number of options but there was one particular name that dominated the scene for so many years and that name is Sound Blaster, for which you have Sim Wong Hoo to thank.

Not only that, but doing so put you on an upgrade path. There were so many models released over the years. Just a tad like graphics cards today.

And it was an ordeal to get Linux working with them. Every. Single. Time. Hearing that test sound: "Hello, this is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce Linux as Linux" was grounds for a major celebration.

Kind of shocking to recall that there was a time when you had to plunk one of these cards into a computer before you could hear much of anything useful.
Sure, it's unlike TikTok.
The general case adds ambiguity which makes it more of a design choice, rather than an obviously good generalisation.

In the general case of 2 or more comma-separated arguments, is "func a, b" a call with two arguments, or a tuple containing a call with one argument? Feel the same about "x = (func a, b)"? What about when this appears in list syntax like "[x, y, func a, b]", or the argument list of another function like "obj.method(x, y, func a, b)"?

They are easily solvable with a design decision about precedence, but arguably the syntax is a little confusing or worth a warning in all but simple cases.
Huh? This comment is a great advert of why you should talk to a real person instead of using chatGPT.

First, there's no such thing as an ASP.Net server.

Second, you can run ASP.Net on Linux. (Google "asp.net on linux").

Third, even if you didn't use linux and were hosting your asp.net application with IIS on Windows Server you simply RDP onto a windows server instead of SSHing. Hint, RDPing is much easier than SSHing for novices unless you want to pretend you're Cypher in the Matrix. It's basically like accessing another desktop from your machine, it has a full GUI instead of a CLI.

No, I am biased though as I would prefer my kids be heterosexual. I am biased for many reasons, I want grandkids, straight kids & people generally have an easier life (not saying it's a good thing) and it's just what I'm used to. If my kid is gay though then he's gay, I love him the same. I don't let them watch anything overtly sexual though, gay or straight.

Hey thanks for your reply. Can you expound on what the issue would be? What do you mean by migrations?
I am sorry that you are going through this. May I recommend a book? "How Starbucks Saved My Life: A Son of Privilege Learns to Live Like Everyone Else" by Michael Gates Gill.

It isn't going to solve your problems, but it may give your mind a rest for a few minutes per day. The author unexpectedly lost his job as a CEO-type, and after a string of bad luck became divorced, and then diagnosed with a brain tumor. The only job he could find was as at Starbucks coffee shop...but that led to other great things.

The amount of stress you are experiencing must be suffocating, and I imagine that it is impossible to be positive. People read "sex offender" and automatically close their minds. This is not fair, but thats how it is.

I had something similar happen, and although I did not have the financial burden that you have, I quickly became depressed more and more as doors were slammed in my face.

Long story short (because I could talk about this forever)...eventually I began sending out/dropping off resumes for jobs that included a cover letter that began with something like "I made a mistake and need a second chance..." or "I am a sex offender, but..."

When I was called for an interview the very first thing I did was speak about my criminal conviction and my name on the sex offender registry. In my mind no one was going to hire me. So I had nothing to lose by taking charge and telling the truth. I did this in multiple interviews, and it was almost therapeutic.

I was eventually hired by a small company (I do sysadmin work) because the owner read one of my cover letters, and wanted to give me a chance (he had been accused and acquitted of rape and murder decades ago).

One more thing. Goodwill Industries is known to hire sex offenders. I do not know their organization structure, but it might be a place to start. Working feels way better than not working.

I know that you do not know me, but you will get through this. You just need the right person to hear your story or see your resume. From where you are sitting right now it is difficult to see one year from now...or five years from now. Good luck to you.

Are you saying you don't want your CPU to have SIMD/vector capabilities, or you want it to have a limited SIMD instruction set without the extra flexibility that AVX-512 brings, or have you wildly misinterpreted the headline (twice?) to assume that AVX-512 adds special-purpose instructions for Unicode conversions?
> That's probably part of the problem. Subcultures are great, but they aren't the dominant culture. If you get too many subcultures, you start to dilute/fracture your primary culture. The center cannot hold. That's what we're going through now. Alternately, if a single subculture gets too large it simply takes over, that or as you said, we simply get conquered by an outside culture.

For me personally, none of this is a problem. I see it as a great source of opportunity, since my family mostly holds to traditional norms, and historically speaking, that means we'll come out ahead. As long as we can prevent the encroachment of the apathetic larger society, I'm hoping we'll win in the end. Good luck.
I live in an unusual town. Trades here at least are flourishing.

20ish years ago this was a working class satellite to a small industrial city, just a few shops and a petrol station. Most of the houses were fibro-cement and most of them empty except for a few weeks in summer when tourists came, but even then it wasn't really thriving, too flat for ocean views, the ocean was on the other side of a enormous dune. There had been a fishing industry here once but that was gone. Nearby Torquay launched the companies quicksilver and rip curl and a surfing culture. This town started to attract student doctors working in the city teaching hospital who wanted to be near the ocean, more than half of them are women, and many of them met young tradies who lived here for the surf. And then a momentous event, the town was used as the set for a tv show about people leaving the city for the coast. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeaChange

A really common story in this town is a couple where one partner works in the hospital as a health professional, which meant they had a steady income to borrow for a cheap block of land, and the other partner is a builder or a carpenter or an electrician, who sub divided the block and built a couple of units.

These couples who have combined the low risk well paid and regular income of a health professional in Australia's public health system, with the higher risk irregular income of small scale property development have mad astonishing amounts of money, all while surfing a couple of days a week.
Complaining because people are pointing out you’re wrong is a complete waste of everyone’s time.

Talking about metro size is actually relevant because if it was a major metro area like say LA they could actually use the cellphone network that would blanket the area. Instead it’s a modest city in basically the middle of nowhere thus the problem.

Gen Z’s work ethic is a constant source of discussion among my peers (GenX/Elder Millenials)
This invokes UB, unfortunately. It works where it works.

ISO C says that:

"The parameters argc and argv and the strings pointed to by the argv array shall
be modifiable by the program, and retain their last-stored values between program
startup and program termination."

Thus within the boundaries of defined ISO C, you can do this:

argv++; // argv pointer to array element modifiable

and you can do this:

argv[0][0]++; // the string pointed to by the array is modifiable.

but not this:

argv[0]++; // array itself (the pointers) not required to be modifiable

I seem to recall finding a problem like this in the K&R2 book also, probably close to thirty years ago. I don't have the book now, but the page number 117 seems to be coming up in my dim memory.

College student made app that exposes AI-written essays
I don’t see how a small sample of a small demographic is possibly useful for advertising, even if they sell pharmaceuticals to every single service member it still won’t be a significant amount of money to Google. This is just some researchers trying to play with a health dataset.

I think there’s a lot of real good that could come from such datasets, it’s unfortunate this effort is tied to Google somehow because it triggers the privacy zealotry brain off switch of HN.
Piracy seems like an easy way to get something for nothing but it becomes a time sink and you get crappy video long term. You end up filling your life with digital clutter.

It's so much easier to buy/rent the video and get it over with. There are so many and better ways to use your time than to waste it filling up a hard drive with videos you will never see.

I knew of a guy that spent his free time gathering videos. He had hard drives full of them. He spent so much time on it that he rarely watched any of them. All wasted time.
False in my state, at least. And ours is on the healthcare.gov fallback (the state didn't set up an exchange).

The state of things here:

1) Most insurers don't offer anything on healthcare.gov. Most years, there are two providers on there, though sometimes one will drop off and another will come in, so it does vary a little year-to-year.

2) Zero insurers here offer individual plans outside hc.gov, so if they're not on there—and most aren't—you can't get one. Seriously. Ask them, ask insurance brokers: "nope, no insurers offer individual plans in this state anymore—if it's not on hc.gov, it doesn't exist"

3) The networks for the hc.gov plans usually suck compared to the ones available to businesses. This may not be captured in the "actuarial value".

4) I've also never seen an employer mention which metal-level their plans is so you can compare them, but maybe they can find out if you ask. I know for a fact the top-level employer plans cost quite a bit more than the best-available plans on hc.gov (and they're waaaaaaay better)

You mention BCBS. They do operate in this state. They are not on hc.gov (not the version we see, anyway) and will not sell you an individual plan outside of it, either.

I pirate games in two situations
1. As a demo. If I think they're worth the money, I buy them (like Elden Ring and DOOM Eternal recently).
2. As a way of archiving my favorite games. For example, I “own” the original Prince of Persia collection in Steam, but I also downloaded the games and have them stored, in case for whatever reason Steam one day decides to terminate my account.
Here is a simple exercise: imagine these were your medical records and your former employer gave them to a third party for profit.
If Framework ended up making a main board with this I’d probably finally pull the trigger on one. It’s been in my cart for a while but I never really could justify buying one.
Magsafe (the iPhone one) = Qi + magnets. There is nothing "magic" about it. You can even get non-Apple branded wireless chargers that have replicated the functionality. The new Qi2 standard will also have this built-in (with help from Apple in fact). It is hardly some revolutionary new product area or source of revenue for the company.

Meanwhile AirPower was in announced in 2017 and has still failed to materialize.
I'm more convinced it's leptin insensitivity.

Can someone post an example of a premium rate number ?

I am curious if the Twilio 'lookup' API call will identify it as such:

/usr/local/bin/curl -s -X GET "https://lookups.twilio.com/v1/PhoneNumbers/$number?Type=carrier&Type=caller-name" -u $accountsid:$authtoken | /usr/local/bin/jq '.'

... which would be a very fast and simple way to validate a number before you (or your process) use it ...
Very cool thanks for whoever posted. One of the best parts of HN is if you kind of just wait long enough you'll see a post for something you low key need/were looking for.

>I'm guessing you're making some argument about war?

The old "It's not murder and/or criminal if the innocent people I kill earn me a medal or paycheck" argument.

Murder is murder, nothing sophistic about dealing with reality.

Just because the US white community regularly commits organized extrajudicial mass murder under a self serving special classification, it doesn't change the reality that US whites commit the most violent crime.
If you think Saudi the most evil government you should consider US itself somewhere on the same line for all the things it has been doing on lots of foreign soils.

Your comment is a textbook example of the asymmetry of media coverage and framing around Saudi Arabia vs US foes.

See:
- saudis treatment of immigrant labor.
- saudis treatment of women.
- saudis war in Yemen.
- extrajudicial killings and imprisonment of journalists.
- etc.

For every criticism you cite against a US enemy/competitor, one can find an analogy in Saudi.
> There's no reason why tier-1 support has to be this irredeemably useless.

There is. They're probably non-Google employees, leased en-masse from the cheapest support center Google could find.
The gaslighting was referring to the industry's messaging as a whole and you knew this, but if you insist.

> The only true fix would be a reactor and fuel design that can't melt down. A walk-away safe design that, even if you intentionally induced the worst disaster, still wouldn't pose a real threat to the public. Then it wouldn't matter if the operator was a cartoon villain determined to destroy the city.

> This is the part that people still don't want to hear. They can't accept that their pet concern can be eliminated by approaching the problem differently and breaking their assumptions. They look for new concerns, but educating them doesn't help because when they run out of unaddressed concerns, they just circle back to old concerns that were already addressed. Their concern was never more than an excuse. They just want the answer to fit their preconceived notions.

You've claimed 1) that the only possible objection is risk of plant meltdown 2) that there are credibly deployable technologies where this is categorically impossible and not just an extension of defense in depth 3) that the claimed existence of 2 satisfies any objections to existing reactors and not just potential future ones and 4) that any objection that doesn't fit this framework is the fault of the objector's reasoning faculties.

1 2 and 3 are untrue, and 4 places the blame for reality not agreeing with this on anyone objecting and silences any further discussion. This is textbook gaslighting. You also left just enough ambiguity that you can have a little cry if someone calls you out on it and call them emotional for reading what you meant rather than what you might possibly have meant if we really stretch the principleof charity to breaking point.

> I literally told you that you were wilfully misunderstanding me. You disagreed. That's on you. You gaslit yourself.

I briefly entertained the notion that you had made a good faith misunderstanding and were just an incredibly poor communicator and attempted to engage, but you disproved that resoundingly by refusing to engage in good faith. Now you are attempting yet again to claim any disagreement is a purely irrational response. This is a second attempt.

You've also abandoned the clearly stated claim that walk away safety satisfies all objections and claimed that you agreed all along Gen 4 reactors and their fuel cycles posed unnaceptable risks.

This is a third attempt at gaslighting.

You also keep talking about how you address concerns and educate people, but you've done nothing but insult.
This dataset is completely unrelated to ads targeting. I understand there's no way to convince external folks of that, however.

I haven't tried LiteFS yet, but as far as I understand, you still get the embedded performance for reads, and on the primary node you get that for writes as well.

SQLite can do things PostgreSQL can't. Like the "insert or replace" is superior to PostgreSQL upsert for maintaining seed data. And the flexible typing is great for a settings table where you can just have key/value columns and store numbers/text/bool/dates/etc... in the value column. Also, if you want to do a graph style query then SQLite is better then PostgreSQL.

The way I see it, both PostgreSQL and SQLite have their strengths and LiteFS expands the areas where SQLite can be used.
Arguable. Too much cross pollination leads to super-monoculture.

It's important to have distinct subcultures to progressultiple fronts sometimes.

I used to work on toll fraud as part of IT for a large tech organization. Not FAANG but several thousand employees.

My impression at the time was the fraud detection heuristics helped, but the root cause was scammers working with telcos overseas. Many of these companies have extremely high rates in the first place, and turn a blind eye to the practice because it makes them much of their money.

Some VoIP providers like Twilio may be the same. As a middleman / carrier, they will always profit from traffic on their network, even if they disavow it as fraudulent and wag their finger at you about it.

I did say about

> Query language, data types support, feature completeness, stability and testing

nothing about correctness.

In terms of stability, I see a couple of pretty old, and still unresolved issues about memory safety (data races, segmentation faults) in your repository, found by users.

In contrast, most of the memory safety issues in ClickHouse are found by continuous fuzzing before the release. And finding similar issues will give you a reward: https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/38986

Our testing system successfully finding issues in well known and widely used libraries - jemalloc, rocksdb, grpc, AWS, Arrow, Avro, ZooKeeper, Linux kernel... It is kind of surprising, and it makes an impression like we are the only product that does testing for real.

I also remember an example of using SQLancer from 1.5 years ago. When SQLancer appeared, we started to use it on ClickHouse, and it has found a few issues and one crash. At the same time, it has found a lot of crashes in DuckDB. But this example is very old, and DuckDB evolved a lot since then - it is a much younger technology after all.
I think noncompoetes should be bound on income as in:

- illegal if your income isn't majorly above the average (like 50+% above)

- in situation where legal bound in maximal time by a combination of how much your income is above average and how long you worked for the company before you stopped doing so

- in no situation should it be longer then 1 year

- in no situation should it be longer then half the time you worked for a company
complaining about them isn't in breach of the guidelines.

It is, the guideline was written specifically to address the repetitive twitter complaints - you can find this explanation in the mod commentary. Also, pretty much anything repetitive runs counter to the rubric of the forum and this complaint is very, very repetitive.

How do you get your local TV/video news?

Video News: Is not a thing anywhere near me. I think the closest news van is probably about 1.5 hours away and I have never seen them here. I am in a very rural area.

Audio News: I still listen to the radio. My new smart phone even has an FM radio as does my MP3 player. There are also a couple of somewhat-local mini-newspapers.

For weather I use weather.gov, windy.com and a couple neighboring states have a weather forecast online and I just read between the states.
Even reading from disk ought to be way faster than the typical Postgres use case of going over the network, shouldn't it?
Neat find. What could cause the calibration offset to be zero? Certainly it did not come this way from the factory. Any abuse/misuse of the controller would not cause it either.

Ah, I suspect this was a firmware update that got borked somehow. Maybe the cable was disconnected before the update could complete.
