If Tsar russia was backwards and problematic (which I fully agree), and the soviets catastrophic (which I fully agree), was russia ever great just because it had some exponents, as every country does? The fact is that russia was always deeply problematic and imperialistic and the writing was on the wall forever.

Saving this, thank you! I've never had a chance to use Mermaid but I've always wanted to.

A project I wanted to work on a while ago was using Lua to generate Mermaid visualizations of SQL table schema on MediaWiki wikis, based on data from Lua-data-table declarations of the schema, since users don't often have access to the actual MySQL. It's too late for that project, but I still think Mermaid is a very cool tool.

You should not lose sight of why you have a business, you want to make money. I would suggest, do whatever makes you money in the short AND the long term. Don't worship ideals and chase fantasies.
Lithography isn't the only way to construct transistor, it is possible to to construct much smaller transistors using alternative tech. Not in scale, though
Assuming these are bugs which have workarounds and don't cause things like data corruption. Then it probably falls into the adage from advertising "50% of all advertising is a waste, you just don't know which 50%".

Another way to look at it is the delayed effect of doing nothing in either area. Bugs creeping in over the months and years may only become a problem when a competitor starts to be noticeably more stable.

Features that are delayed may have a delayed effect of a competitor getting ahead of you in the market and launching months before you'd be ready.

So I would say, "it depends". If you're in a growth market and are trying to capture market share, features might be best before non-critical bugs.

If you're in a stable market serving a huge amount of people, then fixing bugs has a much larger impact on your users.

You also have to consider the team and their morale over time. Too much churning through low value bugs can be demoralising where individuals might need some type of higher level thinking and creativity.

If it were me, I'd look at bugfix only sprints and adjust the frequency based on the above factors.
Is it just a political stunt then?

Like a knee jerk reactive move because energy prices have gone up, the government will turn on potentially old and dangerous reactors to make the populace happy?

What other steps have been taken since Fukushima (a long time ago) to ensure energy security a side from hoping old reactors are still safe?

Under the new policy, Japan will also develop and construct "next-generation innovative reactors" to replace about 20 reactors that are set to be decommissioned.

It sounds like too little too late, what's a next generation reactor? When will it be online? Sounds like things that should've been happening ten years ago?

Smells desperate considering Japan is still trying to workout how to dispose of waste water from the last mess.
Always hard to tell whether the sarcasm tag is missing. But the entirety of startup culture is "what if we didn't follow these rules that don't make sense". Sometimes you get a failure, sometimes you get spectacular success, and sometimes it dumps a problem on someone else.

But mindless rule-following, however inevitable it is, is also organizational poison. That's how you get situations where you're "doing everything right" but everyone - shareholders, staff, customers - ends up unhappy.
False.
Both epoll and thread switching use the exact same kernel scheduling mechanisms under the hood.

(When the kernel decides which thread gets to run it's doing the equivalent of an epoll call.)
Depends on the location. Driving directions are not available at all for Georgia and Armenia, for example, though as simple maps they work ok.
It doesn’t seem equivalent. It’s hard to figure out that this app is doing anything fishy without a thorough code review/sniffing external communication. In the extension example, all the permissions are laid out.

Given that there is clearly a difference in relative value produced across a non-trivial number of (often incomparable!) contexts, men and women cannot be equal, and the fiction that they are would not survive an afternoon spent watching the Olympics, or a brief visit to a maternity ward.

In my opinion, the only thing we should do with that information is accept that (1) men and women are different, (2) disparity of outcome may be the result of those differences, as opposed to systemic bias, and (3) insisting on equality of outcome will, invariably, produce grossly inequitable results in some contexts.
I read the Alibaba part as hyperbole. I don’t think he was talking about actually getting TEUs of this stuff through customs—just making a point on pricing.
All the domains I checked from his suggestions were taken. I would add a whois check to make sure the domain are free, or at least to show which are free and which aren't.
Ask HN: Can HN add more precise search filters?
I wanted to search for "Who wants to be hired?" threads only, but the search always includes "Who is hiring?" threads, because those include the string "Who wants to be hired?" with links to the corresponding threads.

So I get those returned as well, effectively doubling the number of results, half of them irrelevant.

Current search filters only allow to filter by "Stories" or "Comments".

Desired solution: Add another filter "Title only" to exclude searching the OP post or comments for (partially) matching strings.

This seems simple to implement, and would also be a big win performance wise, since the search space is at least an order of magnitude smaller, given the fact that the actual posts/comments themselves are much longer than titles.
It's interesting to see how so many things grow into each other. A shell is what you say, but there are many efforts to change that. Bash has its magic autocomplete which knows about options of many, many programs. Powershell has an object-model with knowledge of many of its commands.

I've read somewhere that the Varangian Guard was mostly Finns. No proper source at hand tho.
Not my experience. I have run a personal mail server for about 15 years. My mail has almost always been delivered just fine. The network my mail server IP has been in a blocklist less than handful times, but this has always been temporary and resolved without my intervention (perhaps my hosting provider is on top of this).

On the other hand, I'm also sending email for a client through AWS SES, and those emails are regularly blocked due to their IPs being on a blocklist. And indeed I also get spam delivered through AWS SES. I understand that it is a cat & mouse game for mail service providers to prevent spam being sent through their services. My point: switching to cloud providers doesn't magically solve your mail problems.

Aonther issue with large mail account providers (gmail at least), is that they will accept & deliver your message, but just "deliver" it to the spam folder. It's so annoying if mail is accepted but you don't know if it is actually seen by the recipient. This erodes trust in email. I understand mail servers don't want to tell spammers whether their email is accepted/rejected, but I would prefer a few more spams in my inbox if I at least won't miss emails.

Interesting story. Thanks for sharing.

Only a couple of years ago I played an incredibly fun game with an open multiplayer aspect to it. You didn’t really know who was friend or foe. Alliances and rivalries formed ad-hoc and betrayal was always around tge corner.

It was very well made but had a couple of power balance issues, which is it bo expected.

The problem was that it didn’t get its network code right from the very start. After a fun honeymoon period that was way too short, we would see cheaters all over the place. Not even “just” wallhacking but also teleporting around and dramatically increasing gun RPM.

This sucked out the whole fun in just a few days. My friends and I never played again even though they might have fixed it down the line.
How does 'npm install' take over a computer? Does it need to run as root? I have never used npm before, so I am not sure.
>an "ealdorman" was the ruler of one or (later) more shires; during the end of the period the title was shortend into "earl"

Do you have a source for this, please?

The OED says that "Ealdorman" is cognate with "Alderman", while "Jarl" is cognate with "Earl". The titles were used interchangeably, but one did not come from the other. The distinction being that earls held power under Danelaw. Earl replaced ealdorman as the title of distinction in the mid-11th century due to the extension of the power of earls outside of Danelaw.

I don't agree with your analysis about the relative culpability of Masayoshi and Neumann, although I agree that both are culpable, but you are missing the point.

I am not talking about WeWork going from a large valuation to a small one, where you might argue, not that value was destroyed (by WeWork management or whoever), but simply that the large valuation was erroneous, and the later, smaller valuation reflected the true value all along, and so no value was destroyed.

Rather, the actual money paid into the company by investors in cash, was much larger than the later valuation of the whole company.

If investors, including Son, paid WeWork large amounts of money, for good or bad reasons, it was always 100% within the CEO's control what that money was spent on. Neumann could have hoarded that money as a war chest, or could have spent it buying something valuable or building something which could be sold profitably. Instead it was wasted (much of it before Softbank's involvement). There is literally no way of blaming investors for this.

You don't think theoreticians are at the cutting edge of science?
Yes you can do it, yes it can work. However as with all things there is nuance. This is a scheduling problem, and just like with a cpu scheduler there are degenerate cases you may need to avoid/handle.

Two problem cases likely to pop up.

1) Lots of fixing when a bigger refactor is required. A poorly written area of code, or a poor design, may be causing high churn and wasted effort. The solution I’ve found to this problem is to track defects by code area and review once metric exceeds heuristic.

2) A team choked on defects only for a long period of time. This obviously has many negative side effects. It tends to happen in really important component and require most experienced developers. Any new starters run for the hills when a team gets into this state, therefore compounding the issues. The solution to this (though this is just my opinion), is to never allow 100% of time over [fixed interval] to be spent on defects. No more than 50%. The bugs will still get fixed, just take longer, and new development is still happening.

Overall though, I think a “defects first” approach is the right one, just have a plan for these negative cases.
Bytecode Alliance – Announcing wash-threads
I am disappointed that many phones/tablets don't go very dim.

From flagship to cheap, it seems that if you're in a pitch black room and check the time on your phone, the light will illuminate the whole room, even on the dimmest setting.

I actually modded my phone by putting a resistor in the LED backlight circuit, which divided the brightness by 1000 - and it was still plenty bright at night (human eyes are logarithmic, so dividing the brightness by 1000 doesn't have as much visual impact as you'd expect).

Reading and understanding are obviously different things. I can read a paper on quantum physics, but I can't understand it.
I’d be inclined to take the man at his word humility or not.

If he says it was a team effort, especially if he’s speaking clearly about the different aspects and who was responsible for them, I wouldn’t disagree with him. He would know after all.
Also, if you put a guy controlling Normandy, he will control the mouth of the river Seine which runs in Paris. So you secure the biggest city of your kingdom from being raided from this river by enemies rowing it upstream, which was the biggest problem with Vikings raiders back then.
I like to imagine an evil genie is reading the text with intent to misunderstand.

I got into the trap of wanting to read more , hence faster, thinking I wold gain more knowledge that way.

After a couple of years I realized :

- most modern books just don't worth the time spent reading them : a simple summary would do and often doesn't bring anything new anyway

- the rare books worth reading require time to be processed (for essays) or to get immersed (for novels).

So such apps solve a false dichotomy, in my opinion. But it can be useful as an "improved podcasts" maker.

> Ask for more and if you think you are being undervalued look elsewhere.

I have a hard time following your logic here.

The only way to get a SV salary has been to move to SV, because that's the only place the companies are willing to pay it. They'll want you there so much that they will pay the cost of moving, pay for a relocation consultant, pay for three months of hotel while you look, pay for immigration, visas (visas are not cheap), give an extra lump sum just for "extra costs you'll incur moving".

Yet you think that it's possible for someone in Poland and India to just go "yeah, can I get the cash equivalent of all that, and also the SV salary?".

I agree that remote work logically is remote work. But it's not that SV employees used to be paid "just right" and everyone else was a sucker. SV employees were and are overpaid.

> "no sane person", seriously?

It's hyperbole, sure. But survey after survey shows that even internal transfers within a company (say moving from the Poland office to Bay Area) makes for people who hate where they live, but they do it for the money.

So the company is paying (bribing) people to move to SV against their will. Just like they're paying salary at all for you to do other things you wouldn't otherwise do.

Compare this to finance. People who leave my company generally go to finance, because it pays 50-100% more. But then you work in finance. And if you already make $300k then (empirically) another 50% won't make you think finance is worth it. Some do leave. Just like some do move to SV. But they don't like it.

Clearly the company wants people to live there. Clearly people don't want to. So if you don't do it, why should you be paid to live there?

Most spam I receive (and that continues to somehow bypass my spam filters) originates from Gmail. So no, spam is not solved, not at all.

Spam is only “solved” on big providers because they mostly accept mails only from other big providers.

It doesn't have to be the first line of a password store file, it can be anywhere in the file, as long as it starts with `otpauth://`. You can also just append it using `pass otp append foobar`. There's also a handy app that can read the password store database for both Android and iOS, which also supports OTP.

one of my points is, that I do not trust that pricing. In my experience the pricing ranges on Alibaba were very wild and often used as an incentive for you to contact them. And after some back and forth you got a 'real' offer. Taobao (or aliexpress in the west) on the other hand, usually contained 'real' prices. Can't say for sure for that listing(s), but I would take everything on that links with a grain of salt.

There was only a very narrow time window where a single-CPU-without-special-purpose-h/w dominated.

The 8-bit era and before relied heavily on co-processors. Sometimes they were the same or similar to the main CPU - e.g. the Commodore 64 floppy drive had a CPU as powerful as the main CPU of the machine, and you could run code on it - but it took special effort to target them. The most successful 16-bit home computers had co-processors and special purpose hw (e.g. the Amiga had it's copper and blitter, but some models also had a 6502-compatible core controlling the keyboard, and many SCSI controllers at the time had full CPU's - mine had a Z80).

The PC got cheap by relying on the CPU to be able to control most things in an age where special purpose hardware was expensive due to low volumes (the Amiga "only" sold about 5 million across multiple models), but it didn't take long before a typical PC started getting micro-controllers and full on CPUs everywhere (e.g. in your hard drive [1]) because the CPU speed as mostly not gotten fast enough.

Just for a short window of maybe a decade it got fast enough to outpace the cost of low volume special purpose HW.

Mercedes-Benz – The new E-Class: dimensional concept and interior design
I have the feeling that behind this kind of experiment there's a wish to hold a 'moralistic' take on 'where is the world going! people today are too busy to notice art!' etc.

First of all, it relies on the incorrect assumption that 'the same people' would pay a lot of money to see him play at a concert hall. I'm not sure this is right. About one in 1000 people did stop and recognize him, and I feel this fraction is not too different from the actual percentage of people who have heard of him and would pay to see him, so this isn't surprising. He is famous, but not that famous.

Second, there is a fundamental misunderstanding on what it means to go to a concert. The whole point of the concert is to take time specifically to listen to music in an attentive and dedicated way. It's not like an improved version of listening to music in my headphones during my commute, it's a wholly different experience with a different purpose. Moreover, it's a collective ritual. We don't go to the concert hall just because of the music and because of Joshua Bell, we also go because it's nice to treat yourself to an evening out, to dress nicely, and to enjoy the fancy atmosphere of the theatre with its, say, baroque frescoes or modern architectural design. Joshua Bell in that context is literally not the same as Joshua Bell in a subway, otherwise why would he dress nicely for the concert? And you know what, there is nothing wrong with that. Theatre and music have always been this way.
