The container/list and container/ring is one of the least useful packages included in the standard Go library, since they aren't used widely in Go programs. It is better from performance and readability PoV to use an ordinary slices instead of these packages in most cases.

The container/heap is more useful, but it could benefit more from adding an optimization for inlining interface method calls when Go compiler knows the underlying implementation behind the interface.

The golang.org/x/exp/maps is useless and may be harmful [1].

The golang.org/x/exp/slices is mostly useless, except of Sort*() functions. But it would be better to apply the optimization mentioned above to standard sort.* functions instead of forcing users to switch to different Sort*() implementations in other packages.

Show HN: A battle game for any of your EVM blockchain NFTs
Hey everybody, I've been building a battle game where the world of NFTs meets Super Smash Bros. It works with most standard ERC721 NFTs on Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum. The game takes your NFT, crops it, and puts it into a mech suit with guns.

I'm still building out the features such as multiplayer and custom mech suits and additional power ups. If you are into NFTs I would love you to try out this early single player version and give me your feedback.

This is fascinating.

Thank you for writing this and sharing this, I was oblivious to all the startups that were doing this and there were quite a lot going by this article.

I think it is unfortunate that companies are deciding not to be open anymore. In a perfect world, do we want organisations to be open? It would mean investment would be easier and less risky, due to transparency.

In the interests of transparency and openness, I share all my ideas and startup ideas in the open with the hope that someone can extend the idea and society can benefit from the ideas. I am up to 700+ computer ideas and 25 startup ideas links on my profile. Society progresses one idea at a time. Somebody invented calculus with an idea.

If openness isn't safe, then we should normalise openness becoming safe and reject actions against open actors or anything that causes openness to not be safe. Reject behaviour that means openness is not safe. For a better world.

Well, like mentioned elsewhere, most of that overhead is just hyper threads slowing down when they have active siblings.

Which is fine; it’s still faster overall. Disable SMT and you’ll see much lower overhead, but higher time spent overall.

It's all about practice. For some, it's easier to create something competitive from it. Some of my students really enjoy challenging me, because they are at that age in life where they want to stick it to "the man". So we do 60 second times competition to see who can finish more.

At its core, learning this is boring. Having a benchmark that you work to improve, gamifying it, is the fastest way to improve. It's like typing or exercise, the fundamentals aren't cognitively taxing. I think it's a little harder to practice after you leave school, because there's no math or science class where you would immediately apply and practice what you learned.

There's no general solution that would work for every student, and not every student has the same weakness. The website I linked is genuinely one of my favorites, it's like duolingo for math, for free with no account needed. I think the second link will help build intuition behind the relationship between the numbers. All of the quizzes/games on this site are fantastic.

https://www.mathmammoth.com/practice/sieve-of-eratosthenes

This is fantastic to understand numbers and primes. Start with multiplication/division. Then work with GCF, which is greatest common factor between two or more numbers, for example 24 and 36, 6 * 4 or 12 * 2 == 24 ; 6 * 6 = 36, 12 * 3; so the GCF of 24 and 36 is 12. GCF is a way to practice multiplication/division naturally.

Arithmetic puzzles are also a good way to get some practice where it's not just boring. Fermi questions are as well. There's more advanced algorithms for multiplying things like large numbers in your head, but in my opinion, an estimate is good enough for 99% of real life situations. Fermi questions help build an intuitive math sense that will be applicable to real life situation. For memorizing, using "tricks" is fine, like the 9 multiples all add up, looking at digits, to 9. 9 * 8 is 72 which is 7 plus 2. Multiples below 10 also start with 1 less than the digit that is not 9, so 8 - 1 = 7, and 7_ and the second digit adds up to 9, so 2, 72. I'll leave the rest as an exercise for reader. Good luck.
Yeah, being just ramen-profitable isn't everything. I'm past that stage though, but in retrospect would have made an order of magnitude more money by being a regular employee in IT compared to trying to make a fortune in the App Store. I hope to reach a break-even point sometime in my lifetime, but I'm not entirely optimistic about it.

> BookDepository they told me they cannot offer a refund.

A dispute through the card is not the same as a refund. Making a large number of assumptions (US Laws, standard US credit card) if the bank that provides the card finds in your favor in the dispute process, they simply take back the money from the merchant and reduce the balance in your account. As well, during the time the dispute plays out, you do not have to pay off any of the disputed balance and the bank can't charge you interest on the disputed balance.

> marked as a chargeback, which takes 45 days to settle.

Yes, that's the result of a dispute decided in your favor, and yes, it is sometimes slow to return -- but return it will, which is better than never returning.
This is good advice that does feel borderline unethical. I’ve found that people don’t have to be defined by their actual names though, they can be defined by activities or what they enjoy or want.

This adds c style for loops to hy, which runs on the normal cpython vm, and therefore can make use of the thousands of open source python libraries available.

My reply to the post was tongue in cheek. The point is that you can add on arbitrary language features to python using hy (any lisp, really). The syntax in question is normally referred to as an s-expression.
If you give it a try, it would be interesting to learn the results.
This is a key insight and unfortunately not enough people make it to this cold hard fact before they begin preaching about food system transformation.

Perhaps a new innovation will replace it, but so far much of the proposed methods are complete fairy tale nonsense which will result in mass starvation without appropriate due diligence.

TCC is great, but the C “standard” library is a mess (and huge, and inconsistent across Windows and Linux). Zig includes a C compiler and C library in a convenient package. But my main issue with C is that it’s just not productive. Dealing with strings in C is a chore.

I also like Lua, but the last time I used it (admittedly 10 years ago), the closest thing to a standard library was minimal. Maybe worth another look, thanks!

I like the National Interest for foreign policy stuff. They're opinion pieces, except from people who actually kinda matter, and it's important to check the author. I'll read something even if it's from a think tank I don't like.
The article seems to contradict itself:

The first example shows the server rendering a handlebars template and then sending that as a response to the client -- it's then stated that this "isn't true SSR"

Then the same thing is done without a template language, using strings instead, and this is some different kind of SSR altogether and the "true SSR".

Which also seems to insinuate that only JS/TS are capable of SSR?

Server-side rendering! Well, kinda. While it is rendered on the server, this is non-interactive.

This client.js file is available to both the server and the client — it is the isomorphic JavaScript we need for true SSR. We’re using the render function within the server to render the HTML initially, but then we're also using render within the client to render updates.
It doesn't. You're replying to marginalia_nu, who has just clarified their position after you made a point. You're not replying to all those hypothetical people who haven't made a peep.

Cost? Depends. For enabling SSO I need to be on paid plan for firebase. If I need cloud sql cost goes up. Otherwise it’s basically cheap or free depending on project requirements.

This argument is silly: given a choice between living in a cave, or in a forest, completely outside of any civilization, and living in a primitive village, I'd choose the village any day. As would (and did) vast majority of people. To me, the social and physical construct of the first village looks like a huge advancement in terms of living conditions, and the quality of life has been improving steadily every since.

Occasional hiking into some wilderness and sleeping in a tent for a few nights is okay, but I am not a wild animal, and I don't want to live like a wild animal, surrounded by wild animals.

If there are less cases of abuse than among generic populace, it is weird to blame the movement. From the article, it is hard to understand that EA is somehow worse than most of the USA.

Also, arguments for polyamory are just that, arguments. You certainly can press someone into it, but from the article, the impression that it is more like persuasion.

Yeah, fully agreed. I think it helps that Apple fairly recently reinforced their belief in that approach with their AirPower charger fiasco[0] as well. Everyone was excited for it, and then it got quietly canceled, with people still bringing it up occasionally. Announcing ahead of time ended up blowing up in their face, lesson learned.

Do people not notice when it happens to them?

I’m curious about how this works out for individuals. Do they get these titles, do the same thing as before and …just put in overtime for the same pay?
Nope, not any changes here, but I'm on the paid thing, Workspaces or whatever they call it this month. I've seen other people writing about it, but I'm not seeing any misses at all.
To answer your question 'has ESA launched anything to space' literally:

Ever heard of the James Webb Space Telescope? Many consider it the most expensive, most complicated, most important single object launched into space.

It was launched to space aboard the 256th Ariane launch from French Guiana and the launch "was described by NASA as "flawless" and "perfect".

Odd. Why not just fill out the paperwork to get permission to extract copper? There are mines all over the US that have outdated claims and could likely be accessed if one was willing to take the substantial risks of reactivating 100+ year old mines. Some are BLM land, some on private land for sale. Copper, silver, gold and much more. There are youtube channels that follow people exploring these old mines for their historic value. Left behind bottles, caps, cans, dynamite boxes, denim jeans, boots, ore carts, rails, food tins, snuff and chew tins. Some of those items are worth more than the minerals when factoring in the cost to smelt and purify them.

> There are simple ethical alternatives, just not disclose that information, or just avoid that questions.

That's not always possible.

> Lying in this case is clearly unacceptable.

In what case?

If you're really taking the stance that anonymity is never ethically more important than honesty, that's a pretty extreme stance. Are women being stalked by an ex who is a cop required to be honest about their identities? Are reporters investigating sex trafficking required to be honest about their identities?

In a more broad sense, there are many corporations and governments out there who follow no ethical rules whatsoever and are sucking up as much information on everyone as they can. These people don't have any sort of right to that information, and don't have a right to my honesty. If anything, I think the moral thing to do, if any, is to hamper these people's efforts by feeding them as much incorrect information as much as possible.

> It is also a signalling issue.

Everything is a signaling issue. Your post, for example, signals you as a person who has not-very-nuanced opinions about nuanced topics, and therefore can't be trusted in nuanced situations. If you wouldn't lie to the police to protect a pot smoker, or lie to an advertiser to protect my privacy, you aren't an ethical person by my standards. I do believe you have good intentions, but intentions that don't translate into the correct actions don't mean much.

> There is a universal social contract not to lie.

This is what I mean about not-very-nuanced opinions.

> If someone is willing to lie in such minor issues, then such person is totally untrustworthy, because there is no reason to assume they would not lie or hold other social contracts in more serious cases when it does not suit them.

1. What issues are you considering minor? You seem extraordinarily willing to generalize some specific-but-not-described situation you're imagining to all of reality.

2. There are lots of reasons to assume that someone who lies to cops won't lie to me, for example.
Same here.

I split tested Kagi for every result for a few days. I used an Alfred workflow to open results in both engines at once.

Then I switched to Kagi full time and never looked back. Been using it for a few months now and I’m still super impressed.

Sometimes I have my doubts about the results and open google. In the majority of cases the results are not better.
> I honestly can't think of a single advantage Amazon has over just ordering directly from the companies whose products I want to buy.

This is what I do when I can, and for the same reasons you described.

However, doing so has made the most significant difference between buying from Amazon compared to buying direct crystal clear: it's rare that Amazon can't get it to me overnight for a cheaper price than buying direct.

But, like you said, all that means is that they can ship me the wrong thing, or a counterfeit thing, or a lead-laden craptastic-thing, just as fast as the correct thing.

I look at it this way - while it takes longer to get here, and shipping is rarely free, it still saves me time and money in the long term to buy direct when I can. It also helps directly support the people I'm buying direct from, and that matters to me more than the time and money savings Amazon makes you think they provide.
"fire the assholes", there's a whole chapter on that in the Dilbert Principal.
Again, this requires you to have a persistent clone on a filesystem. I specifically wonder if we can do (and I quote) "direct incremental git-to-S3 backups", and you keep replying "it's easy, do it indirectly with a persistent cloned repo".

I don't understand where you are stuck, tbh.

yencabulator has provided a good tip I think, as you could store the previous set of refs and use that to build an incremental Git bundle (one with only the objects that were not in the previous bundle). I don't know if you can do that with the existing Git client though.
I don't know that they would have, but regardless it seems like Elon really cares what the people online say. He's going out of his way to engaging in memes from his "fans".
I think what drives the granting of bigger and better titles is the insatiable desire for same from young people who don't have a lot of work experience but are eager to feel like they are moving up the ladder of success quickly and their accomplishments are being recognized. (this is why a number of "famous" places use "Member Technical Staff with the single bump of Distinguished and it's also why you have the urge to roll your eyes when you encounter a teenaged C-suite looking for seed capital. not saying teens with a startup aren't worthy of respect, but you'll be apt to want to know "which one is the coder, designer, and marketer?")

>We find widespread evidence of firms appearing to avoid paying overtime wages by exploiting a federal law that allows them to do so for employees termed as “managers” and paid a salary above a pre-defined dollar threshold.

this is published by NBER, a very academic economics driven enterprise, so let me point out something they should have but didn't: TANSTAAFL. There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. And I'm not talking about the employers getting a free lunch.

if you (tech workers) think you'll be able to convert your high-hourly-equivalent-wage into a higher-hourly-equivalent-wage-with-overtime-pay, no, not going to happen, at least not in the long term, unless of course your productivity were to climb by a commensurate amount.

The market (labor supply and labor demand) sets the wages and TANSTAAFL.

You might find a work-life balance that you personally like better (for instance no overtime pay, no overtime work) but that's not better for all people and after the payment system adjusts (for instance erode workers' base pay, then entice longer hours with larger overtime payments) it will settle into a new equilibrium which does not include free lunch.
