I think the battle to promote the use of quantum computers is rendered even more difficult by the fact that their raison d'être of "being faster than classical computers" requires one to further develop the existing field of complexity analysis for classical computers. Indeed, it's difficult to fairly compare the gate/oracle-based complexity of quantum computers to the iterations/multiplications/etc-based complexity of classical computers, especially if we don't know their complexity in the first place [1]!

Some, but not all, treaps have a node weight that is updated in a probabilistic fashion. The act of balancing the tree is still deterministic, but the weights of each node are randomized.

I keep trying to find a use for treaps, but haven't had a project that needed it. In particular, the value of a balanced tree is in consistent cost of lookups for arbitrary elements. But if you are mixing entries that are accessed often with those that are not, having an 8:1 access time ratio between the two would be a feature not a bug.

Yeah, Amazon has the worst benefits for big tech. They started “considering” improving things before the economy was going down but seems like all that stopped.

It’s more in line with “traditional” companies. Amazon is going more down the IBM route everyday. For any Amazonians, it’s day 2.

You missed my point completely. Mushrooms can provide a nice chewy texture to balance other textures in a vegetarian dish. The effect is similar to what meat provides. It's not a processed meat replacement that attempts to mimic meat.

Quinoa can provide small chewy things and also absorb spices as it is cooked. Then, like ground beef, it can be mixed with other foods.

Just because something is a reasonable substitute doesn't mean it must be a processed "replacement" (as they use the word).
The Quantum Algorithm Zoo website[0] gives some examples of problems where the quantum algorithm is much faster than the classical one.

My own view is that for a lot of (but not all[1]) problems for which we have a quantum algorithm improvement, we maybe already have a heuristic that gets us 95% of the way there just as quickly. So the application of a QC on these problems is buying us a massive speedup, but only if you need to get the perfect, optimal answer. And sometimes you do!

The last part is the key thing. I'm in a continuous running battle with our information security risk team over this - they believe that secret rotation is a secrets management platform feature (and we use Vault so that box is ticked) but the reality is that secret rotation that isn't tied to restarts / reloads of said secrets within distributed application estates is just another way to have an incident.

This is particularly true if you've backed into secrets management as a practice and retrofitted existing platforms; but even if you've designed net new, it's an abstraction-breaker to get reloads of credentials happening all the way down the stack.

Even a blue/green deployment isn't a panacea if there're databases or other shared states that depend on the credential cutover.

From my point of view, the better approach is not to share secrets at all where possible and drive everything from service identity directly. e.g. short-lived credentials like AWS IAM or short-lived PKI proofs like SPIFFE.
It is not the duty of the Supreme Court to follow public sentiment.
That's a big if though.
What button are you referring to?
Wow, that sounds very privileged and condescending. "And you shouldn't either"? I'm sorry I can't do that, so can't many other people. Despite all the problems, in general, Amazon is still the most convenient and accessible place to buy things with relatively good customer service. In some cases it's the only place to buy certain products. If you can live in a bubble without Amazon, great for you, but don't preach others with your (almost) impossible personal choice.

> half of Washington State is declared an "Apple Maggot Quarantine Area" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Maggot_Quarantine_Area) where it's illegal to bring in homegrown / wild-picked fruit lest you infect Eastern Washington's massive apple orchards.

The article you link suggests that the quarantine area is the region from which it's illegal to bring fruit out.

The wikipedia article also does something interesting where it describes a mature fly as being an "apple maggot". I would have thought that the term "maggot" referred exclusively to the larval form.
I, at least, appreciated this joke =)
AAA corporate bond yield has always been about ~1% above the treasury yield [1].

Almost nobody has bought government bonds for a long time besides pension funds (due to obligations), banks (due to regulations), foreign governments (due to ForEx necessity), the Fed, and a pretty small amount (~8%) held in 401ks (overwhelmingly by older folks) [2].

Rich people certainly aren't buying Treasuries to protect their wealth - unless it's someone like DoubleLine betting on interest rates only going down and the forced greater fool (pension funds).

401k people are only buying treasuries because of the "age old wisdom" - not because it makes sense unless you think like DoubleLine that treasury yields - long term - are only going down.

> The new design was better, it just took some getting used to.

I often don't find that to be the case.

While I don't use it much these days, any time I do end up on Reddit with its newer design, I find it painful to even just read the content there. I've tried to give the new design a chance, but the user experience is just so atrocious. To use that site, I have to switch the "www" in the URL to "old" to get the earlier design that's at least mostly usable.

That isn't the only example of "improvements" leaving me worse off. It happened with Slashdot, with Firefox's UI, with GNOME 3 (and later), with Windows 8 (and later), and with pgAdmin 4, among numerous other pieces of software that I use.

About a month ago, I booted up an old laptop running Windows 2000 and an ancient version of Firefox. It's been many years since I'd used them, but I was shocked at how pleasant the experience was. It made their current user interface and user experience regressions far more blatant.

Unfortunately, based on what I've seen of it so far, Wikipedia will likely be added to that list of mine, too.
> In fact there was never a vote to "completely defund and replace [MPD]

Where have you been? There was even a referendum on the matter proposed by the council as a direct result of their earlier vote that failed at the ballot on the issue, after the first version couldn't even get past the charter committee. I've seen a few different vote numbers- I think Lisa either didn't show for the vote, or it did end up at 12-1. She was pretty much alone in opposing the matter though; the vote to send the amendment to the charter was only 11-2 because someone wanted to be a little more moderate.

As a side note, calling Mayor Frey a conservative is hilarious in the US. He is a Democrat and about as conservative as President Obama is. Frey didn't go along with defunding the police because the people who wanted the police defunded make up a minority and there was an election to win. "Having a funded police department" is something that clearly crossed political boundaries in terms of support.
It’s worth mentioning that, although Google Authenticator allows one to export two factor authentication codes, it’s only in the format of a QR code that can be scanned by another phone. It doesn’t provide the option of exporting 2FA codes in an encrypted file that one could store in a safe place.

So it seems that the backup is intended that the user purchases a second phone!

No, we've built our own web editor & iOS code editor. In our v1 editor we did run VSCode in the browser, but that was before code-server was released (in 2018). Even if we wanted to run code-server, that would be impossible as we allow for multiple users to open the same sandbox/branch, which wouldn't fit the model of VSCode server (which is single user per server).

"At the conclusion of the initial interviews, each employee was asked to sign an affidavit, under penalty of perjury, affirming that he or she did not disclose the Dobbs draft opinion to any person not employed by the Supreme Court, did not disclose to any person not employed by the Supreme Court any information relating to the Dobbs draft opinion not made public through means authorized by the Court, and had provided all of the pertinent information known to him or her relating to the disclosure or publication of the Dobbs draft opinion. Each employee was then asked to swear to the truth of the statements in the affidavit before a Notary Public. Each of these employees signed a sworn affidavit. A few of those interviewed admitted to telling their spouses about the draft opinion or vote count, so they annotated their affidavits to that effect. If investigators later determine any personnel lied to the investigators, those personnel would be subject to prosecution for a false statement in violation of 18 USC § 1001."

"all employees who were requested to do so voluntarily provided call and text detail records and billing statements for their personal devices for a defined period to the best of their abilities. The investigators reviewed the call and text logs retrieved but found nothing relevant in the limited logs."

All the other references that I can find look like they are limited to the Court's IT systems. That seems like it might yield evidence that someone contacted the press (if they were careless enough to use their personal device), but little else.
Agreed re: there being randomness with each hit in a live performance. I wonder, though, if the distribution of one hit is in fact independent of the previous -- perhaps the inner feedback loop of "am I falling behind / speeding up" in a musician causes the next distribution to be skewed differently or centered at a different instant.

In which case I can understand the thought process of it being uninteresting, in a way. And you're absolutely right that when the randomness is applied into a short loop and repeated it falls into a strange uncanny valley (at least to my ears).

Perhaps another aspect of this is that the randomness, added based on e.g. a seed to the whole track, would be hard to control as an artist. I know when I apply randomness to MIDI I tend to go back with a fine-toothed comb and re-distribute hits that don't go where my mind wants them to.

Strictly speaking, this is not true. Crypto is used by many countries with tight/problematic banking regimes to send/exchange money. Ironically, both by Ukrainians and russians, for example.
Another thing is buying drugs on the darknet. Whatever your opinion of that is, the fact is crypto has some usages, though not a lot rn.
I'm glad to hear you aren't an incel, and you have my sincere congratulations on 15 years of marriage, that's wonderful. I 100% agree with you about Tate & Peterson.

I think it would be worth considering that the ideas you were describing are axiomatic in incel ideology. If you dug through some Andrew Tate videos, you wouldn't have any trouble finding him make the same case as you've made. The crossroads here is, once one observes these critiques of masculinity - do you accept them fatalistically, attributing them to some indelible aspect of biology (this is the Peterson route), or do you seek to change it? Do you place the blame on women (the incel route), or do you observe that there is a power structure (the patriarchy) that is simultaneously oppressing and privileging both men and women in different ways, so that they both enforce the rules of the patriarchy on one another?

There is a problem here, absolutely, we're on the same page there. But it doesn't stem from biology, it is a set of social constructs and expectations; artifices created by humans and which can be abolished by humans, no more immutable than the concept of the divine right of kings.
fleshy bags of mostly water
As you noted, I said that the problems stems from sudo not setting PWD, hence `sudo make` doesn't inherit PWD. I'm not calling that a bug in sudo, but it was a bug in the specific makefile which assumed PWD to be set always.

A good solution to the problem is for make to set the PWD macro. BSD make already does this.

How is anything plant-based considered meat?

By its very nature, it is not meat. It is plant fiber.

Words have meaning, and without meaning we have chaos.

I think the problems with plant-based "meat" is the fantasy that it is "meat."

It will never be meat, just like insects will never replace a steak, even if Bill Gates starts jumping up & down and demanding we eat it to save planet earth.
Aside from the much-touted uses in cryptography, probably the biggest use will be as universal quantum simulators. A lot of quantum simulations are infeasible beyond trivial interactions, because the classical memory and number of computations required to capture and progress the state of the quantum system grows exponentially with each interacting element in the system. Simplifying exponentially increasing memory/computation time requirements to linearly increasing qubit/simulation time requirements will make a lot of chemistry and material science way easier.
Jeez people cool it with the downvoting. Obviously sarcasm.
Well it is impossible. You'd need to overbuild and connect to neighbour countries, and we all know that can't be done ;)

https://nitter.nl/enn_nafnlaus/status/1565923581246091264 has some interesting graphs and calulcations. The overbuilding described isn't very much higher than what the French planned for their nuclear plants. It is higher, though.
Awk is super interesting if you peel away a little. One nice thing about it is that the amount of code it takes to do something seems to scale quite linearly with the complexity of the thing you need to do. Which is exactly why you often see it in one-liners, but it's so much more. Recommend a deeper look at it.
It's hard to feel secure in the long-term success of Proton, as impressive as it is. As long as the plan is heavily reliant on playing new Windows games, it seems like Microsoft might be able to make some anti-competitive play which some makes it much more expensive, difficult, or slow to maintain or advance Proton. (If targeting Proton becomes a priority for many developers, so that they are hesitant to do Windows development without considering Proton compatibility, I think that risk is mitigated significantly.)

I agree that the other things work in favor of Linux gaming as well. An immutable base system with strong separation from containerized apps seems like an approach more in line with Windows and Mac users' expectations for how app installation works, and clears important footguns away on behalf of power users. KDE also seems like a good base for Windows power users, who value customization but also want a sensible GUI for making such tweaks.

Shouldn't we also note that the Steam Deck seems to be a genuine success where Steam Machines never were? What's the install base of the Steam Deck, and what can we hope for it to grow to? If the Steam Deck can build respectable market share as a 'console', that could be a really, really crucial foothold for making sure that Linux/Proton is worth targeting for publishers.
Wikipedia is an example of good website redesign: overall I think the new site is better and has some added benefits (TOC sidebar, fixed-width page layout) and doesn’t unnecessarily change or remove things.

But Wikipedia also allows people to resort to the old style. Which I think is even better because it satisfies those who simply dislike change no matter what. And it also helps in case the new redesign is not so good…

Overall I think customizability is the best, but it’s also the hardest because you must now support multiple styles and layouts instead of one. For a simple site like Wikipedia it is reasonable though
Ask HN: Why can’t you revoke Apple Pay authorisations
I use Apple Pay a lot. It is incredibly handy and I am glad that its presence has lead to a lot more retailers, brick and mortar and online, handling alternative payment methods.

However, I recently used my Apple Pay on a service which stores your payment details for further processing. I thought it was a bit strange as usually you have to authorise each Apple Pay payment each time. I then went to buy something else from their store and the payment went through without any manual intervention.

How is this possible? How can I mitigate it?
