There is a lot of inherent complexity there though. Inherently VS needs to support multiple debugging engines and multiple transports to communicate with the debuggee as well (remote vs local debugging). That's OK, two layers of dynamic dispatch is still fast in this context.

Do we update call stack and locals window at the same time, or do we update each one as early as possible but show inconsistent data?

Do we fetch call stack for all stopped threads, or do we wait until the user chooses to focus on a different thread/display all threads using Parallel Stacks windows?

If Watch result is a collection, do we load its members or wait for the user to expand the tree?

If call frame has changed, the strings in Watch need to be re parsed to refer to new variables. Do we do this work every time, or do we optimise for stepping in a single function? Is it worth it if only a few of the debugging engines can support that optimisation?

Each Watch needs to be interpreted in a way that catches all exceptions and creates an error message instead of crashing the debuggee.

If the user puts a breakpoint at the end of a loop and holds down F5, watching the Locals to decide when to switch to stepping, is that a supported use case?

These are the product decisions that lead to the performance, not micro details of how the code was laid out to achieve the goals. I mean, I don't have access to their source code, so I could still be proven wrong. What's an example of a fast debugger?
Ok, y'all gonna have to explain this one. How is being forced to work a late shift a good thing for anyone? That labor law sounded to me like it was there to protect women given the context of the society they are in. The dangers for women, law enforcement capabilities, social education,etc... did not change. So less protection is good, because somehow being overworked 12h+ shifts is a sign of equality for women? I was expecting "outrage" against this lol.

You would think HN crowd would be for more labor laws that prevent companies from taking advantage of people and putting them in danger.
> If there is a run, then selling is actually the worst thing to do

The “demand” in “demand deposit” accounts means that selling isn't optional as the cash runs out in a run.

A bank is not an unregulated crypto exhange that can just impose arbitrary withdrawal limits to protect the absence of liquidity.
> SMTP falls back to A (and AAAA which have not existed back then) when the FQDN does not have corresponding MX record

I think of it the other way around.

Originally, people would specifically say which computer it would be sent to when sending mail, right?

And then later came MX records.

So in my mind it’s like, ok send mail to this host, except if there are any MX records. If there are, then use those instead.

I think your building lambdawalks and prepared some concepts on how to introduce it. You're not satisfied with any of the results.

The way of how the information is presented is weird ( too much and too confusing). Perhaps set the vertical as default and remove the "code block" ( or add a x button to it).

Simplify how you're showing that ( a lot)

I don't know LISP, so the expressions feel weird to me, so i can't add remarks on that.

The standard definition definition of Object in C++ is the same as the definition of Object in C because the standard says so: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/object .

Is not a problem of interpretation. It is just that the C standard uses the term object for just a bunch of memory (with a type) and the C++ standard does so too. Nothing to do with objects in the OOP sense.

You can't parachute people into government without explaining to them how government works. Representatives don't just vote on legislation, they have to propose it and draft it. Someone has to understand and explain how all of that functions.

The people doing the drafting, suggesting, and explaining won't have term limits and will have the real power. They'll also be the ones targeted by lobbyists.

You'll end up with is a floor show with the real decisions being made behind the scenes by people who are mostly not directly accountable.

Not unlike what we have now. Different, possibly better in some ways, and possibly worse in others.

Advice for New Directors
No, it actually was incredibly stupid and short-sighted by VCs. Here's Matt Levine on that point [1]:

> Also, I am sorry to be rude, but there is another reason that it is maybe not great to be the Bank of Startups, which is that nobody on Earth is more of a herd animal than Silicon Valley venture capitalists. What you want, as a bank, is a certain amount of diversity among your depositors. If some depositors get spooked and take their money out, and other depositors evaluate your balance sheet and decide things are fine and keep their money in, and lots more depositors keep their money in because they simply don’t pay attention to banking news, then you have a shot at muddling through your problems.

But if all of your depositors are startups with the same handful of venture capitalists on their boards, and all those venture capitalists are competing with each other to Add Value and Be Influencers and Do The Current Thing by calling all their portfolio companies to say “hey, did you hear, everyone’s taking money out of Silicon Valley Bank, you should too,” then all of your depositors will take their money out at the same time. In fact, Bloomberg reported yesterday:

Unease is spreading across the financial world as concerns about the stability of Silicon Valley Bank prompt prominent venture capitalists including Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund to advise startups to withdraw their money. …

Founders Fund asked its portfolio companies to move their money out of SVB, according to a person familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing private information. Coatue Management, Union Square Ventures and Founder Collective also advised startups to pull cash, people with knowledge of the matter said. Canaan, another major VC firm, told firms it invested in to remove funds on an as-needed basis, according to another person.

SVB Financial Group Chief Executive Officer Greg Becker held a conference call on Thursday advising clients of SVB-owned Silicon Valley Bank to “stay calm” amid concern about the bank’s financial position, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Becker held the roughly 10-minute call with investors at about 11:30 a.m. San Francisco time. He asked the bank’s clients, including venture capital investors, to support the bank the way it has supported its customers over the past 40 years, the person said.

Nah, man, you don’t get to be a successful venture capitalist by taking a long view or investing in relationships or being contrarian. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, this is unfair. Of course they were right — Silicon Valley Bank did collapse, and if you got your money out early that was good for you — but that is largely self-fulfilling; if all the VCs hadn’t decided all at once to pull their money, SVB probably would not have collapsed.[6]

You could argue that Wagner group itself is a criminal organization. They are even illegal in Russia, they have no actual legal backing. Not that it matters in practice, obviously. It is step further I would say - explicitly illegal organization, hiring from jail and even involved in actual organized criminality (smuggling, murders).
What can I read to convince me I shouldn’t care about online privacy as much?
I spend a lot of time reading about and trialling alternatives to popular services to try to protect my privacy online, but it’s a struggle, because typically it costs more money to have privacy (like paying for things like Protonmail) and the services tend to be less full featured (like Protonmail, which is not even close to the same experience as Gmail).

So now rather than continuing to spiral with the many places I’m reading about online privacy, I thought I’d see if I can challenge my brain to just care a lot less. That would make my life simpler and less expensive.

Any articles, videos, whatever anyone would refer me to?

I just have way too much other stuff to be anxious about, so I’d rather not care about online privacy.
Its not “unspoken”, its the overt goal to find a bank to take over that will provide that.

But SVB is a much bigger bank with a much larger share of uninsured deposits than a typical bank failure. If the problem extends beyond liquidity and really is an insufficiency of assets by any significant share, its going to be hard for a no-loss takeover to be facilitated.

Should I pay you for what you wrote? No. You wrote it to benefit me, and yet I should not pay you. Curious, right? How would you explain that? I would consider your message a gift, designed to help me correct what you see as a mistaken view.

Am I /truly/ not entitled to free gifts of information from sources that, like you yourself, want to benefit me at no cost to me?

When so much free information exists, why should I be deluged with marketing driven pieces - like this - that I would filter from my view, if I only could? I never want to read pieces that are compromised by marketing and paywalls. And I should not have to, because there are plenty of free things to read.

I could read a scientific article in that time, for instance - totally free, and 10-100x more valuable information. I could chat with a friend, or read an open source code project. Again, free information.

The true issue is not some angel-counting argument about whether this amoral leech of an author needs to deluge people with marketing to eat - that's entirely debatable, and we won't get to the bottom of that debate.

No. The real issue, in my humble if somewhat outraged opinion, is that these ux/seo patterns obscure the words of authors who desperately want to share knowledge for free. And I suspect that's a topic we can find common ground on.
He didn't say he wanted to do a "million dollar solar install" and he certainly didn't say he couldn't come up with "$10k for land".
How are they proving to be false all the time? The FDIC said the last bank they took over was in 2020.
More importantly, why did the previous one leave? What did she know?
For all you DIY fans and hackers:

1) You can install solar panels yourself [1]. Most of the cost today is installation not the panels. You don't necessarily have to put them on the roof of your house. Installation on e.g. a car port or just on the ground is usually much easier.

2) You can save money by building your own battery from B-grade (safe but not good enough for electric cars), LifePo4 3.2V cells, and a BMS (battery management system) sourced directly from China.

If you know German, this video is a great start:
https://youtu.be/97T3TAV51sM

He built a 10kW solar plant with a 11kWh LifePo4 battery for no more than 7'000 USD. He's using that power in part to heat is home with AC and estimated that it will amortise within a handful of years.

Also has a great forum, again in German, https://www.akkudoktor.net/forum/
Looking forward to any good English sources.

I'm currently building a van for remote work. Already live and work in it full time for a few months now. I have 5.5kWh of LifePo4 battery that cost me about 1'500 USD. Bought in Germany, incl. housing and BMS, not DIY. Would already be much cheaper now, just half a year later. I currently have 200Wp solar on the roof, which is enough for work. Planning to upgrade to 900Wp soon, to also run AC and cook via induction instead of gas. AMA.

[1] You might want to check the building codes in your area. Like many here, I'm more of a EAFP guy.
Yes, I agree. Depositors are entirely different issue then shareholders. I think that startups mentioned in this thread are the depositors.

Plus it is not just that shareholders took risk, it is also that market incentives push companies into too rules breaking and too much riks. Because it makes shares go up temporarily.

Since LLaMA leaked on torrent, it has been converted to Huggingface weights and it has been quantisized to 8bit for less vram requirements.

A few days ago it has also been quantisized to 4bit and 3bit is coming. The quantization method they use is from the GPTQ paper ( https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.17323 ) which leads to almost no quality degradation compared to the 16bit weights.

4 bit weights:

Interestingly that's a popular myth. Much of Europe - especially Scandinavia - is much friendlier to startups than the US. The proof is the much higher social mobility.

What the EU lacks is the Ivy->Startup pipeline and insider/investor networks with access to old and old-ish money. And also the relentlessly aggressive branding and self-promotion (and tolerance of scamming and grifting) that defines US hustle culture.

If you're not in or around those networks already your chances of success in the US are pretty slim.

The name of a variable is supposed to contain the most relevant information someone needs when looking at an expression. If the most relevant information is the type, then that should be name. The fact that the compiler knows the type doesn't help me understand the code if I have to scroll two screens up to see what it was.

Imagine you see some code masking the first 40 bits from the location pointed to by first_item. Does the name "first_item" help you understand why they are doing that, or would it be more useful to know that it is the first forty bits of an u_fp_64, so it's masking the mantissa and just keeping the exponent?
We dedicate 39 million acres to corn ethanol so our gas is 10% ethanol. 15 million acres of panels would supply all of the US energy needs including all current petroleum energy.

1 acre of corn produces 11 million kcal. 1 acre of solar panels produces 300 million kcal.

In personal experience, when you write anything more complicated using threads in python, I end up writing lots of boilerplate code that I wished I could just shove somewhere - Events, 1 element Queues, ContextVar contexts, all of which don't benefit for being named and make appearance only in two spots in code. Async removed a lot of this for me while also unifying the future ecosystem and making my code more composable and easy to integrate.

It's a few days later now but I think I was referring to React in the round as deployed in the real world, the community norms etc. rather than just the core library. In my experience the way that React projects tend to develop is that "tried and tested" libraries get added to to solve particular issues, most commonly state and styling (codified in meta-frameorks like NextJS etc.) but also UI transitions, wrappers around common non-react libraries like Leaflet or threeJS etc. The reason being that it's actually quite hard to sensibly integrate vanila JS libraries into a React code base so if someone has done the hard work why would you not use that. But of course this comes at a cost. More recent libraries (in my experience svelte but i understand this is a common feature) mitigate the issue by 1. having a builtin approach to state and styling 2. making it easier to drop down to the underlying HTML/CSS/JS without making a mess.
What are other banks that exploited that loophole? Maybe it's time to short them for some easy money.

In the Netherlands when a job requires a background check - for example working in fintech - the employer is only permitted to request information directly related to the industry, e.g. financial crimes.

Unfortunately this does not avoid them using "3rd party" services but it is refreshing to know employers can't have a data trawl from the Government.

Last time I checked programming had something to do with computer science. You could say its applied computer science. So I ask myself: how come that this discipline, already 50+ years old, has almost no consensus of how its output aka written code should be structured? Why are there no established standards or rules? Not a rethorical question, happy to hear your thoughts.
This is what I feel is a killer usecase for the "metaverse" or VR in general - especially as an educational tool.

People who've tried certain VR experiences know it's SUPER immersive (seriously, I had a physical adrenaline spike when I was on the edge of a platform hundreds of meters up in Vader immortal) - having that kind of experience in an educational setting is going to cause those experiences to embed, and with them, the subject being learned, far better than any book for some people.

I've also seen no investigations prior to the collapse from NYT, WSJ, etc.

>If you're so good, why aren't you making 600k at BigTech

First off, because I don't live in a region where these kind of incomes are remotely possible for an employee.

I make more money than many FAANG employees in my country as FAANGS here does not offer the same salaries. They ask for the same amount of work from employees as their SV counterparts but salaries are 10x lower.

And no, my wish isn't to move to SV as there are other things that are at least as important as money for me.

Second, I started to dislike FAANGS.
