Hmm. This gets into the fuzzy definition of "loop in microcode" depending on how you look at the system. I don't think the actual looping happens in microcode, that is, it's not like the ucode unit jumps to earlier ucode - this wouldn't make sense architecturally for a variety of reasons.

However, in the case of 64-bit integer division on mid-aged Intel processors (for example, Kaby Lake), I do think that division is both iterative and microcoded (versus fixed-function logic), but that the ucode emits an _unrolled_ loop into the scheduler.

IDIV with 64-bit operands on Kaby Lake takes 56/57 uOps (!) vs the still-huge 11 uOps for 32-bit IDIV. (for comparison, we're down to 5/4 uOps for 64-bit division on Alder Lake).
Policies are the alternative to ACLs. You craft your IAM user/role policies or your bucket's resource policy to allow and deny the appropriate access. ACLs are a totally separate subsystem of S3 that should be been deprecated long ago.
They had significant intellectual capital until Putin seemingly single-handedly destroyed it all. The universities of Soviet Union were top notch and Russia retained a lot of that.

As a testament to that, over the last 2 decades we had plenty of immigrants from and outsourcing to people in Russia and ex-Soviet countries, and as a rule, those people are great programmers.
* Due to foreign exchange fluctations.
The initial default behavior for S3 was public access. Now requiring already created buckets to have default private-read will probably - almost literally and with no hint of sarcasm - break the internet.

New buckets, sure whatever, but dont touch the old stuff.

Agreed. Virtue capitalism is the sociological illness that defines our times. A widespread belief in corporate paternalism is the spoonful of sugar that helped the pill of de-unionization go down in the first place.

We fight for unions on the basis that absent better labor laws the corporation requires an adversary to keep it from exploiting workers. It's hypocritical to insist upon a union and then get mad about a lack of corporate generosity.

I think the ultimate solution is a economic system which fundamentally recognizes that workers are involved with enterprise and deserve an ownership and some power stake in it. That might create the opportunity for this relationship to become one that is more cooperative.

At least that way the struggle might get a little less existential as every corporation would be on an even footing. I think a good portion of corporate resistance to unionization is about fearing they will have to compete with an un-unionized company.
there were previous posts on the frontpage this week, didn't last very long. I get the feeling posts related to Musk are weighted down due to how polarizing the comment section becomes.

Please no. Having S3 (with or without cloud front) being able to be your 'serverless' webserver is one of the very strong points of the service.

Before putting important info on the machines of a cloud provider, hire people that know how the service works. Yes, this costs money, but the 'solution' you are providing in your comment as well, and can be equally open and leaking.
Specially if the current team can not secure a bucket, they will not be able to secure a proxy in front of it.

Is there an update to this story? The story doesn’t cite what law the NLRB claimed was violated, only that doing what starbucks did interfered with their ability to organize. The final paragraph mentions that the case is yet to be heard:

>The regional complaint will be heard by an administrative law judge at the NLRB. Once a decision is reached, either side can appeal to the full National Labor Relations Board in Washington.

Absolutely! The right kind of error type really depends on use-case — I targeted this kind of use case because I see people get it wrong most often, but it’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all solution.
If you come up with a way of describing two things, I'd encourage better names than "thing 1" and "thing 2".

"false positive" and "false negative" are easier to understand than "type 1 error" and "type 2 error".
Alternatively we need the model to have a long term memory, and be able to load stuff to/from that while reading.
(Not the creator of Perseus, just a friend and fan of the project.)

I tend to agree. I’ve also partaken in some Rusty frontend experiments that were discontinued. Rust is years behind on the JS ecosystem’s development velocity for frontend. That said, frameworks like NextJS are becoming incredibly complex, and Rust excels at taming complexity.

We’re already seeing Rust making major inroads at the lower levels of the JS stack, e.g. Deno, swc, turbo, parcel, react-relay.., even 3.5% of the next.js repo!

Not a lot of Rust folks agree with me on this because they delight in using Rust-lang as a universally applicable tool for app-making, but I think frameworks such as Perseus will reach their true potential once they incorporate JS/TS as a last-mile scripting language. Basically like a C++ engine with C#/Lua scripting for game logic.
Oh forgot about that, yeah that's a problem
In the category of "questions that already have the same answer presented a million ways on the web, on youtube, etc. etc. etc."? If you still don't know how, you've intentionally made sure to never actually look that up.
Yes. Read HN for a bit, you'll find plenty of anti-capitalist and anti-NATO statements. The police don't show up for the authors. The posts are often downvoted, though - not because they're anti-sacred-cow, but because they're usually shallow propaganda talking points, with no thought or substance.
An aside but "Making Money" by Terry Pratchett references a similar sub-office of the Post Office in Ankh-Morpork--the Blind Letter Office. Amusingly, Lord Vetinari is able to assist with some as their addresses are mis-spelled vague directions rather than strict addresses.

I chose dart/flutter instead of a webstack/framework for cross platform apps I wanted to write. I was way too confused as to what to chose out of all the frameworks; fear really of making the wrong choice.

You'll not get much love for dart/flutter on HN. But I'm pretty happy with them.
Many or most of us are both types - because sometimes the first approach is warranted, and other times the second approach is. I would warn against pigeonholing people - for a time worn view on this google the “the bozo bit”.

The problem with comparing LLM and human context length is that LLMs don't update their weights based on their input. The 32k of context that they do have is their only memory.

Humans have multiple layers of memory and can recall things and concepts from years in the past - akin to millions of tokens' worth of recall in an LLM. Yes, that memory is extremely lossy, but it's there.
I think it's excellent that you, a commenter on HN, understand that important contributions can come from all parts of society. I really wish that understanding was shared more broadly across this whole country. Unfortunately I've been alive long enough to see that it really is not.

I suspect that more people felt as you do, we wouldn't have so many barriers to opportunity for kids. Moreover, the existence of those barriers wouldn't be so disproportionately correlated to race and place-of-birth.
No hostility intended.

Didn't much of the conflict in Ukraine from 2014 onwards arise from an effort to treat Russian-speaking Ukrainians as second-class citizens by the newly installed government?

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/E-8-2014-01053...

For comparison, this would be like the U.S. government banning the use of Spanish or any other minority language, refusing to print translations of government documents in those languages, etc. Such a policy would certainly generate tension and resentment in areas like the Southwestern USA, and would be hard to characterize as 'liberal'.

Of course, in the context of TAPI and Afghanistan, the Ukraine war is just part of the ongoing struggle over who gets to sell fossil fuels to Europe, i.e. Russian pipeline gas vs USA tanker LNG.

> type 2 knows that at the heart of all of their engineering work (and problems) are people

This is only true for justifying the "work" and some of the high level definitions of the "problems".

The same challenges exist on personal projects where the justification is arbitrary and can be nudged to get optimally simple problems (well made products) to fall out of it instead of ugly tangled knots (poorly made products).

A few years ago in Spain, AliExpress orders always came via Correos (national postal operator), at least once it arrived in Spain. Nowadays, it seems everything is private, at least in the major city I live in. Based on how they will combine orders in China, it seems like the seller ships to an AliExpress operated warehouse in China, orders are combined and packaged together, flown to Madrid, then from there private companies fly it to where it’s going (in my case Valencia) and then it’s dispatched out to delivery driver, usually on a bike or scooter. Usually the employee is wearing a UberEats or Just Eat backpack, so I assume either the delivery companies are in the last mile game, or the delivery drivers themselves are picking up packages when it makes sense. Maybe there’s a gig-economy app for package delivery I’m not aware of?

Anyways, long story to say that anecdotally prices haven’t really gone up at all. At one point they started charging VAT on orders (21%), but the switch to private delivery hasn’t seemed to increase prices.

For the first one, if we can agree the regulation is good, then so be it. If your business can only thrive by hurting other people, you don’t get to be in business, that isn’t a more fundamental right than not being harmed by businesses. For the second, the solution is to plug loopholes that allow businesses of any size to bypass regulations. In no case is it the correct solution to get rid of good regulations.

I believe this is how Germany does it. I may be getting the details a bit off, but I believe corporate boards have to have a worker’s/union representative as a member. This makes total sense to me.
how do you technologize intent-detection? maybe chatgpt-x could do it, but that's the crux.

i am NOT haying pattern recognition won't help, search for audit software and you will see each of the big four has specialized software. (here is EY's: https://www.ey.com/en_gl/audit/technology)

the problem is the issue of perverse incentives, IMHO. Audit takes a butt load of time and money, and disrupt business while they do their thing, and pays peanuts frankly... and audit firms earn more from associated services, contracts which they can earn if they don't bother the management too much.

yes, there are a dozen caveats and stuff, but frankly, the issue comes down not to technology but to people. The same network of people are in the few audit firms, and the spin out to join companies sometime later, who hire the same few audit firms, and so on.

Shows that some things just can't be provided by the private sector and need a govt agency like the USPS. A private corp would have shut this down long ago and just required in their terms&conditions that people write in an easily OCR-able style, else the letter gets dropped without notice. Letting the govt take care of this gives people more freedom - for example the freedom to get old and have a handwriting that a machine has issues with.
"I guess a few would."

The wider issue isn't over whether authors—or anyone for that matter—should or not be paid for work done (of course they should). Rather, it's over the unfair and inequitable nature of copyright law and how sleazeball publishers take undue advantage of it.

We need to keep in mind how these unreasonable copyright laws came into existence. They were framed in the 1880s by Victor Hugo and cohorts at a time when the average citizen would have had no concept of what copyright actually was let alone have had any notion of violating it.

Aurhors such as Hugo and cohorts were principally targeting unscrupulous publishers (usually printers) in other countries who stole works holus-bolus and published them without paying any royalties whatsoever. They were not obliged to pay as what they were doing in their own countries was perfectly legal (they weren't violating their own weak copyright laws and no local citizen's copyright had been violated).

So when the Berne Copyright Convention Treaty of 1886 came into force it was essentially unknown to the average citizen, and even for the few who knew of its existence, it was essentially irrelevant.

You don't have to be Einstein to figure out what wrong here, that is, at least as far as the public was concerned (of course, authors and publishers loved it and they made a killing). The lobbying for and creation of the Treaty was completely one-sided and essentially without opposition, the authors/publishers got everything they had wished for. Even by the standards of the day what publishers ended up with would have been deemed unacceptable if the then citizens had known about and understood the Treaty's wide-ranging ramifications.

That the 1886 Berne Copyright Treaty started from such a high one-sided base with a small group of authors and publishers in complete control and ruling the roost has made it almost impossible to achieve meaningful copyright reform.

With this small, powerful and well-funded group in control it meant that copyright was locked up and untouchable for the next one hundred years—that is until about the mid 1980s when the first 'challenges' to its rule came about with electronic data (actually, the first was a decade or so earlier when the Xerox copier became widely available).

What so affonts publishers so much is that they've ruled supreme and without challenge (except for spats amongst themselves) for a century. They're not used to being challenged as with other businesses so they've never had to conduct themselves in a proper ethnical and buisness-like way (they've behaved so badly for so long they don't realize how bad their behavior is). Hence, it's little wonder they're now behaving as even bigger asholes than before electronic publishing and the internet.

You also need to consider that publishers have not only been screwing the public with high prices through use of monopolistic practices but also they've screwed authors and content creators from the outset. Correct, these sleazeballs have been screwing those most rightfully deserving of royaltes for years.

If LLMs are as disruptive to our industry as some predict, do you have a fallback profession in mind?

This implementation blocks file system access and is thus not vulnerable, but note that in Rust in general you can actually violate safety on some platforms without any `unsafe` by modifying magic files like /proc/self/mem. This is a known issue but considered unfixable (because the technical solution of marking opening a file as unsafe would cause far more trouble than it could ever hope to solve).
I put developers in those two groups:

A solves easy problems with complex solutions.

B solves even complicated problems with simple solutions.
They are "professional scapegoats" IMO, companies pay them to take the blame and their business model seems to be: collect fees, do an "audit", pay the fine, keep the spread.

> There is no longer a music industry. There is no longer a journalism industry. Pretty soon there will no longer be a book industry. We’ve decided we don’t want to pay for those kinds of things, so I guess we won’t have them

Although, let us not forget that the context here is lending, its legitimacy and its impact to industries.

Libraries - including bibliothecae, hemerothecae, discothecae, mediathecae - predate those industrial crisis: people could consult books, periodicals, records and media freely, and yet the industry was running - people bought anyway.

The crisis in the music industry, in the journalism industry and in the publishing industry (etc.) are more probably related to situational factors, involving quality, competition, habit shift, infrastructure.
This is dependent on what the NFT actually gives access to or is linked to.

90% of NFTs probably are just ownership certificates of JPGs so if that is what you want to "view" then the answer probably is "a JPG".

Other NFTs though might be some sort of online game char, access tokens to a live feed or just symbols of on-chaining offchain consensus. In those cases the answer isn't that straight forward. But generally I'd remark that an NFT in itself only has utility as long as you have access to its underlying chain, so if you cannot take the interaction with the chain with you its not going to be very useful. OTOH, if your sole purpose is looking at pretty pictures then one will probably best just compile JPGs to a folder. But that doesn't mean that one owns those pictures or that there are NFTs involved.
It's quite confusing.

I don't think that lubridate has any relationship with anything else, for example, apart from being created by the same people.
