It doesn't have to for anyone, but does in this instance as the lawmakers in question are motivated by their affiliation with a religion.
I'm sure there are reasons for it, but Chris Lattner has been jumping around a bit. Remember swift4TF.
But hopefully this one is seen through with lots of open source too.
How do you figure?

It seems entirely plausible to me that one could design a slightly-less-dynamic language, using Python-compatible syntax, which meets or outperforms Python on every benchmark which can be written in both languages.
With traditional fossil fuels, you would just lower power production when demand is low. The need for large scale storage really arises from renewables like solar where you might get plenty of power over the course of the day, but there are going to be extended periods (namely night) where it doesn't matter how much excess capacity you have, you're not generating power.
Pluton is next gen TPM, fixing many of the current TPM vulnerabilities.
For the record, I'm not a fan of Reddit.

But there is something to be said about having the censor cabal out in the open for everyone to see. Compare that with Facebook or Twitter or Instagram, where there is no record of who is determining what is and isn't ok to say.
Up until very recently there was plenty of federal support for tobacco farmers, and you can't eat that either.

If states are going to legalize and tax, then they're obligated to treat these businesses as legitimate - especially with respect to social equity programs that give priority to minority license applicants. If you're sending these licensees into a meat grinder, that's not social equity.
I agree, but to be fair, software usability often experiences death by a thousand UX cuts, and gnome-keyring support is one of those cuts. I don't think that's the case with web browsers, though. for the most part, things that matter do just work, both in Firefox and Chrome.

The things I suspect could make a difference to Firefox marketshare are performance and transformative features.

For performance, UI latency needs to be near-zero to make it feel snappier than Chrome, and JS- and CSS-heavy pages noticeably faster than in Chrome. (Yes, pages shouldn't be so JS- and CSS-heavy, but they are, and users don't care that it's the web developers' fault. The browser that solves that problem wins.)

For features, tabs are one clear example, as were blocking popups, and session restore. Containers, adblock, Pocket integration, and Reader Mode all seem like they could have been this, but they weren't. Big features will be hit-or-miss, and will quickly be copied, but possibly a big deal for a short while.

Perf, of course, is a lot of hard engineering work, and features may be as well, in addition to being potential duds. Things like gnome-keyring feels like a relatively simple quick-win, despite being very low value compared to various other possibilities.

Personally, I thing I switched back to Firefox when they made restarting it when you have a hundred tabs retain the tabs, but not load them until you switch to them. That moved restarting the browser from a big deal to something I can just do whenever. (It was also when Quantum/Servo stuff was happening, but I think it was the tab thing that got me.)
If you change your investment strategy every time someone posts an alarming article you probably aren't going to do very well as an investor.

> I suspect Mozilla is large enough that they can do more than one thing at once

Maybe that's the problem. Why Mozilla should be large enough to do those things? I'd rather have one good browser than 20 mediocre side projects.
Also, when you know something contains peanuts, you just stick a label "CONTAINS PEANUTS" on the packaging. You don't get the grocery store to ask everyone for a peanut allergy certificate before selling them a jar of PB, and also keep a log of who bought PB from them.

And we already have something similar for porn sites, in the form of the "Are you over 18?" landing page banners.
The software world is so massive, everyone is someone else’s dark matter developer.
The word "first" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here and has jackshit to do with it supporting it. Why? Because the overwhelming majority of Android users aren't using a keyboard and are using a touchscreen. You could even extrapolate the woeful state of Android tablet UX, because there's far more Android tablet users than there will be keyboard users because hey, most Android devices only ship with a touchscreen and are cellphones.

An iPad can support a keyboard too. It's a touch-first device.

A Mac can support a touchscreen with a third-party driver, but it's a KBM-first UX and support of the touchscreen is horrible in most apps that only accept one input at a time.
It is a little disappointing that they're setting the bar against vanilla Python in their comparisons. While I'm sure they have put massive engineering effort into their ML compiler, the demos they showed of matmul are not that impressive in an absolute sense; with the analogous Julia code, making use of [LoopVectorization.jl](https://github.com/JuliaSIMD/LoopVectorization.jl) to automatically choose good defaults for vectorization, etc...

I'm able to achieve 96GFLOPs on a single core (Apple M1) or 103 GFLOPs on a single core (AMD EPYC 7502). And that's not even as good as what you can achieve using e.g. TVM to do the scheduling exploration that Mojo purports to do.

Perhaps they have more extensive examples coming that showcase the capabilities further. I understand it's difficult to show all strengths of the entire system in a short demonstration video. :)

EDIT: As expected, there are significantly better benchmarks shown at https://www.modular.com/blog/the-worlds-fastest-unified-matr... so perhaps this whole discussion truly is just a matter of the demo not showcasing the true power of the system. Hopefully achieving those high performance numbers for sgemm is doable without too much ugly code.
This isn’t Python though, right? It’s just a Python-like syntax for a much lower level programming language (sort of like Cython) from my cursory glance? It seems a lot like Rust with a Pythonic veneer, so I would expect it will run into many of the same problems that Rust has (lots of difficulty pacifying the borrow checker)?

About me: Second career developer with a background in marketing/advertising technology and media operations. Previously held tech-adjacent roles at Netflix, Roku, YouTube/Google where I collaborated with global engineering teams to build proprietary software to help automate and scale workflows for internal and external users. I'm seeking a new technical challenge in my career and am open to a variety of industries (am especially excited about MarTech/AdTech re: prior background). I'm eager to learn new languages & frameworks, open to wearing many hats, and bring translatable experience in tech from previous roles. Open to full-time, part-time, internships (paid or unpaid), and contract. Thanks!
So is this actually Python or not?

I’m a bit confused.
Meta comment: Your attempted use of markdown italics multiple times in your comment made it a little unreadable (I made this mistake for a long time myself). So pro-tip: On HN, italics are the * * rather than markdown's _ _
I see infinity and perfection as a direction, not a place.
That's how I explain it to kids.
If you’re a browser user you won’t notice, but as someone who build websites Firefox is noticeably behind other browsers and is the lone holdout that have not rolled out the CSS `:has()`, `@property` and nesting features.
It’s all theater and not worth doing, we should recycle metal, glass, and paper and burn/bury the plastic. We might as well be honest with ourselves about where our waste goes instead of pretending we recycle it.
Why exactly should banks be private companies at all?

Theyre just skimming middle man between the government and end consumer.

Sure, the government would know your bank balance and spendings, but that could be worked around

If youre in trouble with the irs or the law, the government will have all the insight they request.

Sounds crazy? We the people had to bail them out and never get anything of their profits.

Too big to fail?
As in systemic risk?

Well, only the state should be too big to fail.

And if they fail, the fdic needs to cover, also tax payer funded.

Any input is appreciated. I know the interest rate should be set by banks and not the politicians, but yeah, is that really it?

Addendum, this post has triggered an interesting discussion, it appears I am not alone with my thoughts.

So far, I do not see any ovewhelmingly convincing argument on why the banks shouldnt be run by the government. It doesnt have to be senate, it can be something relatively neutral like the irs.
Since the engine was ported to Rust, it's been fantastic as a user. Sure, the app ecosystem favors Chrome due to market trends, but that's minor.
> What people are now asking for is unlimited insurance, which encourages risk takings amongst banks

Except that when a bank is liquidated, the shareholders get zeroed out, and the executives get their money clawed back, which encourages banks to not risk-take.

As a depositor, this sounds fine to me. I don't benefit from banks doing stupid, risky things, and I shouldn't suffer from it either. Raise the capital requirements. Zero out the shareholders when things go pear-shaped.
Thank you for a delightful term - churnalism : I had never heard that before!!
Tampering with the bootloader is game over. And what, are you keeping this other bootloader medium on your person and in your sight at all times? It's never ever unattended?
In the general case, the comparability of cardinals relies on the axiom of choice. In other words, they are comparable, but they require a slightly unintuitive foundation to establish that they are always comparable.
There are actually significnatly fewer writers today than in the heyday of scripted television, when seasons were 24 episodes long and nearly every hour of prime-time was scripted television.

As for ChatGPT: ChatGPT is not competent at writing substance. ChatGPT excels at superficial basic structure; the kind you learn on the first day of high school English. Those who have tried using ChatGPT to write fiction have discovered that every story follows the same simple pattern, and it always skips over the most important part of the story (i.e., the part that writers would actually need help with) to skip straight to the conclusion where everybody lives happily ever after.

So ChatGPT might help a student with the bones of their creative writing assignment. But it and its LLM ilk will never be a force in Hollywood; that would require a better type of AI that is actually capable of substantive understanding.

> Am very happy to hear this kind of thing is more rare. Not that street users have too much more assurance either way the MDMA they are getting is in fact MDMA, but hopefully thar whatever analogues there are now are a little better than meth or heroin.

Almost all Ecstasy/MDMA outside a pharmaceutical setting is adulterated, usually with other amphetamines. The degree of adulteration varies, and in some cases it may not be very noticeable by the user, but it's incredibly rare to find pure MDMA outside of a pharmaceutical setting.

Methamphetamine is one of the most common adulterants. (This is a bit of a misnomer, because MDMA is itself actually a methamphetamine, but it's not the one most people are referring to when they say "meth").
> "Targeting trans people"

To be clear, this is what (many) progressives call policies like "making it illegal to mutilate the genitals of children," or "keeping men out of women's prisons."

Some parts of the right-wing social agenda (abortion restrictions, for example) are broadly unpopular. But protecting people from the gender cult is a winning issue politically.
I have seen companies have rules about (or against) cloud computing in general. I remember when decent web-based translation services first came out, and the guidance from BigCorp was to not use them for anything work-related.

From what I personally have seen, this sort of guidance remains. When companies do use things like Google Docs or Microsoft Office365, they likely have some specific contract in place with Google / Microsoft / etc., that the company's legal team has decided they are happy with.

I anticipate that the same will eventually be true of ChatGPT and such, that there will be some paid corporate offering with contract terms that make the company lawyers happy.

Most of my career has been with larger companies, often with high data sensitivity; I can easily imagine that some smaller and/or less data-sensitive companies might not care about any of this.
"Operating system" is a frequent term in the news. I don't know where you are from.

My point is that you produced dozens of paragraphs about terminology but added zero value to the actual discussion and all that while totally understanding what others actually meant.
They are prepping us to justify more takeovers and sell offs to the big banks. A handful of big banks are what is needed to implement CBDC. It is kind of similar to how the government prefers a handful of tech companies which they can control.

Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Facebook

Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Citibank, BofA, Wells Fargo
Sadly it means that you'll need more active strategies to seek alpha.

For example I've been chasing the AI bubble just to squeeze out 1% gains. If I had just left funds in Vanguard I would be down.
An AMD Lenovo Laptop supposedly gets 16 hours of battery life and again, this is subject to what you're running, but it runs x86 stuff natively instead of having to translate it. Isnt this 'good enough' for most people? I know we have people wanting week long laptop batteries, but over 12 solid, real world hours should be good enough for the majority of users, I'd think.
10 Bad situation happens.

20 Regulation is setup to mitigate/eliminate the bad situation.

30 Regulation to prevent the bad situation is removed.

40 GOTO 10

Seriously, all of this was predictable.

See Glass-Steagall Act loosening in 1999, followed by the GFC of 2008.

See removal of stress tests for all banks except six, in 2018, followed by 2023 bank collapses.

I would never allow a non-technical person to suffer desktop Linux. It's great for professional developers and nerds with too much time, but even I get sick of things just breaking and needing tweaks. It's definitely not for old ladies. Give her something that Just Works™. Ideally a used Mac. It can still be managed remotely, like Linux.
> The emphasized part is you moving the goalposts. If you want to assert that already low-risk individuals can further reduce their death rate using the vaccine (undoubtedly true), then it's entirely fair to ask whether doing so creates unknown, long-term risks.

Hard disagree. Unknown, long-term risks apply equally to both. However, I'd agree to mutually change the goal posts. Do deaths and long term damage for both vaccines and COVID-19 in the cohort.

> But let's not pretend we have decades of experience with these vaccines to prove that fact.

We also don't have decades of experience with COVID-19...
They both have highly imperfect avenues with which we can exert influence, but one has more power to compel you to support them legally “or else”.
Your post stated that the NRA banned guns at their conventions, that is simply not true - the secret service did, and only for a very limited amount of time when the SS took control of the venue.

If you don't like the secret services rules, I suggest you take it up with them...but feel free to keep on moving the goal posts to try and defend your original post, which was false.

BTW: how many shootings have happened at NRA conventions where attendees were welcomed to carry guns, and many did?
Parker was purchased by Newell Rubbermaid, and — as with so many other old famous brands — their current products are junk.
Countable or uncountable? ;-)
For what reason? Once you can establish a firm opinion no additional value can be gained by continuing to talk about it, so any opinions you give are obviously hypothetical. Hell, they are bound to be contradictory from one comment to the next as you can't learn from only hypothetically opinionating one perspective. What can be taken from that?

Even if someone wanted to use your opinions against you, there is no way for them to figure out what your opinions are because, again, there is no value in talking about your actual opinions. They are already established. There is nothing more you are willing to learn from them, so there is no remaining communication value.
Why can't an app be a certified medical device? I'm actually working on one and close to getting certification as a medical device, which will then be rolled out by hospitals etc.

Feedback from user testing has been great, patients loved it generally.
As I'm sure you're aware FPGAs are nice because they can complicate things for an attacker in the physical supply chain. Andrew "bunnie" Huang did an excellent talk on the subject:

I hate when people do this kind of purge on Reddit instead of just deleting the account and letting the comments stay. So much useful information has been destroyed thanks to these tools. I'm glad that dang does not allow this to happen on HN.
There’s still a housing crisis. Why don’t you buy some land and build some housing? That would be a productive and stable use of capital.
Typically, tax rates are much higher on cannabis than regular sales tax. In many states, it is even taxed twice; once when the retailer purchases it from a distributor, and again when the consumer purchases it from the retailer. Some laws have changed, but, in prior years, this could lead to an effective tax rate of around 40% in states like California.
Let's hope that public discourse will continue and draw attention to the need for further research.

I've been addicted to pornography myself and spoken with many men who say the same, as well as many women who have had their relationships and mental health destroyed by being partnered with people like myself.

The current state of research and recognition is not always reflective of reality. I'd hope that anyone familiar with the history of science could accept that.
That sounds like it should be up to the OS to prompt with a confirmation when the software tries to change a global setting. That's what mobile devices do.
I'm sorry for your struggles. I hope that you are doing better.
The same reason why banks are underwater -- rising interest rates will cause long term bonds to drop in value (because you can buy debt at a higher return/interest rate, so fixed interest rate bonds have to drop in price to compensate).
Yeah, I think there's absolutely value in controlling the pressures and expectations that kids are under--e.g., filtering sexually suggestive stuff out of social media feeds, etc. (Also for violence, too. I know seeing stuff like combat footage out of Ukraine is doing weird things to my psyche, I can't imagine what it'd be doing to a still-developing-brain.)

I figure the best strategy (again, as a non-parent) is kind of defense-in-depth: implement some general screening to keep the ambient level of attention-bombardment somewhere sane, help your kids develop sane habits around their tech use and getting what they want out of it, and educate the kids on why those controls are in place for the stuff that leaks through.

Again, my main concern is how much people crutch off of "just block everything," along with the knock-on effects that can lead to. E.g., there's a growing pile of people in the US who class any form of LGBT media as "pornography", which is patently ridiculous, but if that's the criteria used by your chosen filter mechanism or if that's the criteria people try to apply to society....

It very much restricts people who want to marry more than one person from doing so and until a few years ago, the government restricted marriage to heterosexual couples.
One of my first ("borrowed") internet accounts was on VM/XA SP around 1991. Yeah you had to hit CTRL-Z to clear your screen, but I was actually amazed at how friendly this machine was (and it would happily spit out pages and pages of helpful documentation), given that it was an "IBM mainframe." It was quite the experience learning to navigate the nascent internet and BITNet of the time on that thing.
Even though the article is about a home buyer, the article says at the very beginning, "a growing number of employers around the country have decided to build their own housing for workers, mostly for them to rent but sometimes to buy."

As if employer provided health insurance wasn't enslaving enough; now they want to bring back fiefdoms.
Author here: TPMs are not a TEE (trusted execution environment), and the TEE included in AMD's CPUs function completely separately from the TPM. So you could disable the TPM and still have the TEE run DRM code.

The fact that both TEE and fTPM run on the PSP (or AMD-SP) might add a little confusion, but is nevertheless interesting.
The article is typical alarmist clickbait but there is some truth in there.

Anyone with half a brain already saw there would be a crisis when the fed reduced rates to zero and started passing out stimulus checks to both people and corporates. Inflation was obvious but I didn't know the fed would do a 180 and started raising rate like Michael Jackson raising zombies. They obviously made a choice and it seems inflation was a big enough threat to slow the entire economy to a crawl.

The responses to an event will always be lagging in the economy. Inflation took a few months to become a serious problem since Covid, the rate increases will likewise take a while to break stuff. Seeing how 2 giant banks already collapsed in the initial wave, it may indicate worse things are coming. I hope the fed realizes this and stop pumping the brakes.
It's really not that crazy. "allowed to use common sense" is a loophole you could drive a semi truck through.
