> …hostile to them. This is true for a variety of targeted groups including LGBT+ people, ethnic minorities, or even just women

I suppose that’s a personal design and a trade off that you and others need to make.

I live in a “red state” and am described by several of the groups you mention and don’t feel the government nor community is hostile to me. I think it’s hard to understand beforehand what is hostile and how much hostility is worth peace of mind, prosperity, etc. That being said, I think it’s possible that everywhere has some unpleasant aspects and I wish that it wasn’t a “pick your poison” situation of having to choose between $5k/month rent and piles of human poo and not having to travel out of state for an abortion.

AWS may be forced to work with EU firms to handle sensitive data on the cloud
I find it strange to try to make the application deal with this kind of issue. It's the OS that's responsible to deal with the physical aspects of IO, not the application.

Now, as for a write-optimized log, it's important from a durability perspective that data is persisted to media as soon as possible after the OS orders a flush. In the storage hierarchy, even the increasingly rare battery-backed DRAM drive has its place.
I used to have a blog about 10 years ago. The problem I felt is that either you get a recurrent base of readers or you will end up shouting to the void. Social media could have been the space for blogs to be shared but it ended up killing them.
Sounds interesting.

ilse.ink/components didn't work. Could you post a link to it?
In game development we can abuse this fact with things like client-side prediction in authoritative online environs. The server plays along with the client in a no-graphics mode and plays the inputs from the client, validates said moves on the server, and if all goes well sends back the response allowing for client action all before the blink of an eye. In the case of an invalid move, the server yanks the client back to the state preceeding. Pair that with some lag compensation and you've got yourself a stew.
Thanks for interesting links, especially https://www.sophon.ai/product/introduce/pioneerBoard.html. I would like some day to be able to buy a microATX or Mini-ITX RISC-V board at a similar price to a board with an integrated x86-64 CPU.

Is there something specific with which you had an issue?
I heard GAMBAS is one. Not tried it. Was mentioned on HN recently and in the past too.
> Apple protects consumers from shitty companies like Epic abusing consumers (in this case, children) and for that I thank them.

Last time I checked the App Store was filled to the brink with worthless pay to win and gambling (sorry I meant surprise mechanics) garbage. Doesn't seem very protective of the children to me. And an opt-in authentification system for microtransactions doesn't make it okay either.
It affects all cloud providers, I just needed to make the title shorter.
NOVA = Northern Virginia
MD = Maryland

Both considered commuter hubs for DC. And I think they're alluding to being able to utilize the DC metro 'inside the beltway' (I-495) hence the distinction there, which is true to an extent, but I wouldn't live in NOVA or MD without a car personally. There is Amtrak service to areas outside of the beltway, but my experience with Amtrak has been extremely poor. I know many people in DC and they all own a car because the metro, while great for getting in and out of DC, is somewhat limited when it comes to going anywhere else.
Because there’s a version of specialization that is, “different regions are specialized but they all seem to build consensus” and there’s a version that is “different regions are specialized and consensus does not seem to be necessary or potentially even usual or possible.”

These offer very different interpretations of cognition and behavior, and the split brain experiments point toward the latter.
I'm not sure off the top of my head, I'd guess it's a MAY or SHOULD. Verifying DKIM/SPF/DMARC is optional anyway, if you want to just read everything without caring you can; you've received the message by that point, I can't see what bad stuff would happen if it wasn't added.

Key rotation would have the same effect as 'DNS rotation' (if you stopped leasing the domain, or changed records) - you might get a different result if you attempted to re-verify later.

I just don't really see it as a problem, you check when you receive the message; why would you check again later? (And generally you 'can't', not as a layman user of GMail or whatever - it's not checked in the client, but the actual receiving server. Once it's received, it delivers the message, doesn't even have it to recheck any more. Perhaps a clearer example: if you use AWS SES to receive, ultimately to an S3 bucket or whatever for your client or application, SES does this check, and then you just have an eml file in S3, there's no 'hey SES take this message back and run your DKIM & virus scan on it again'.)
It's not really that difficult. If the ads are blocked the servers can just return 403 for the videos. Since they have their own ad platform they can easily verify if a specific ad was served from the server which is difficult to work around from the client. Even if someone puts in the work to download the ad without playing it to satisfy the server Google still makes money so they're happy.

When it comes to corporations like Google I don't really mind watching ads but I don't want to help them with their revenue.
Would it be more if it was easier though?

> Posts are explicitly not immutable, so they do need to be revalidated, and that's fine.

OK that's my point. In the AT protocol design the data backing posts is immutable. This makes sync, and especially caching a lot easier to make correct and robust because you never need to worry about revalidation at any level.

> People want to be able to edit, and delete

Immutable in this context just means the data blocks are immutable. You can still model logically mutable things, and implement edit/delete/whatever. Just like how Git does this.
From the linked Reuter's story:

"The document adds the cloud service must be operated and maintained from the EU, and all cloud service customer data stored and processed in the EU and that EU laws take precedence over non-EU laws regarding the cloud service provider."

I wonder how the EU can enforce precedence of its laws viz e.g. FISA 702?
While I mostly agree, I wouldn’t attribute buying middleboxes (or building shitty middleboxes) to incompetence. This is about doing the minimum viable effort for compliance, not about actual security, and everyone who bought or sold these boxes knew that.
Which is hilarious given the restrictions on freedom of speech in the US

European countries have different levels of restrictions on the US, more lax in some areas, tighter in others. The main difference with the US is that the EU doesn't pretend they have unlimited free speech, the US does.
Looks quite neat.

I'm getting the habit of regularly restart the kernel and re-run everything - just to make sure everything works as expected.

The situation now is different, in that AIs are capable of flooding the market with more exponentially more material than human beings could possibly ever produce or sort through. Also that AI provides a market incentive to prefer machine generated content over human generated content, as the presence of humans in the loop at all reduces profit margins (this includes having AIs curate the libraries,) as humans can't work 24/7/365 for free.

So the inevitable end result of this will be that all content will be AI generated as soon as the quality becomes - not great, competent or insightful, but just good enough to make money in the immediate short term. And this will be the case for all forms of media.

Definately. The optimal body fat percantage is at about 12% for men and 15% for women, but I can't find a study that really tries to find that optimum.

There have been already studies showing that body fat percentage is a better predictor of mortality than BMI, but most studies focused on BMI in the past, as it's easier to measure.

They only way to reach a significant market share is to put up with it, wouldn't that count as abusing their position? They don't have to care, because they know that developers have no choice, and in the process they increase their hardware sales? Imagine if google wanted to produce end-user hardware. Then they limit their SDK/NDK to only work on that new hardware. And, this isn't any magic or special hardware. Just an added EULA that restricts legal use, and lack of developer support. This is pretty much apple has done. Of course, doing something like that on an already established market would be suicide. But, developers would have also to a much larger extent chosen not to target Apple hardware, if it wasn't for the market share. That's why it is abusive and a case of anti-trust. They get away with it because of their market share.
This is the same as all health research. We don't do controlled studies for ethical reasons, so we end up with lots of confounds. There are lots of clever ways to eliminate those confounds, and current research is considered sufficient to find a correlation between high blood pressure and heart disease, heart failure, stroke, kidney damage, vision loss, memory loss, and cognitive decline. There could be confounds not yet considered yet, but after reading a lot of research myself, I believe this is causative.

HOWEVER, we should put this in context. Apologies in advanced for switching to cholesterol for this example. For example, from memory, total cholesterol above 7mmol/L increases the risk of heart attack by around 20%. Your average typical annual risk of having a heart attack is 0.23%, so high cholesterol increases this to 0.28%. That's still low in nominal terms. Smoking, on the other hand, can increase risk of hart attack by as much as 700%. This raises one's annual risk to 1.61%. Still low in nominal terms, but much higher than high cholesterol. Now consider the many other factors we control, like diet, pollution, exercise, stress, and alcohol and other drugs. These mediate the nominal risk further still.

My current position is to lead a healthy lifestyle while individually combating the clearly bad lifestyle choices like smoking. I don't smoke anymore because it's so obviously hazardous that the benefits are not worth it. I might consider taking statins in the future if the side effects are few.
The fact that the practice is widespread doesn't mean that it's not abusive. It just means that most players are also abusive.
This is newsworthy because the bacteria can function at lower temperatures (15 C) than previous bacteria discovered.

In this time, my year old consumer graphics card has performed more floating point calculations than my entire town could in their entire lives.

Occasionally I work this stuff out and it's frankly hard or impossible to truly appreciate just how fast these things are.

Your employer is a corporation, not a human. Corporations are an abstraction. There are two ethical perspectives one can take:

1) Mutual loyalty. This changed in the eighties, as jobs became transactional. Typical SWE tenure is three years today, and human resources are treated as just that, resources.

2) Improving the world. Would you rather individuals act in the interests of Shell Oil, Phillip Morris, Microsoft, Lockheed-Martin, or in the interests of society as a whole? Why do you care that a particular corporation survives or dies, rather than everyone being better off? If Google is replaced by DuckDuckGo or Bing, and customers / investors / employees switch over, what's the moral value of that?

It makes rational sense to do your job as well as you can, but "as well as you can" isn't defined the same as "to the benefit of maximizing shareholder value."

Most people I know switch viewpoints after a decade or two in industry. It takes an event or understanding the internals of corporations well enough.

As a footnote, "doing your job the way your job wants you to do it" doesn't even make sense. A corporation doesn't want anything. It's a collection of individuals. Your boss might want something, the CEO might want something different, yet a different thing might be in the interests of shareholder value, something completely different in the interests of customers, and a policy document stored on the intranet might dictate something yet different.
I used to live in New Delhi, India. In past there were frequent power outages and as a result almost everyone who could afford got either a generator or a battery based power backup solution. Not everyone can afford these, but whoever can would get the backup setup in place.

There exists a similar situation with water supply. What started out as 24 hours running water back in 1970s has ended up as supply at low pressure for < 1 hour once or twice a day. As a result everyone has built additional storage water tanks and added in line pumps to suck water when the supply is present. The in line pumps are illegal, but everyone has one.

getting back to topic, India also has the government frequently shut down mobile and broadband internet to control communal riots and anti-government protests.
Ironically, my employer, which is starting to demand RTO, is taking away many office amenities and even forcing people to alternate days and share desks. The higherups are making the offices worse and thinking people want to come back to that. Their heads are so far up their own asses it's amazing.
Cisco Viptela vEdge 100, 1000, and 2000 routers have a hardcoded certificate which governs the hardware appliances ability to join their SDWAN network. At connectivity loss or reboot, they are unable to reconnect.

This has been on my watch-later list forever. Is it worth finally watching?
It would make sense to have telescopes in orbit at Lagrange points around various gas giants and in far corners of space. The maximum definition of the Event Horizon telescope is based on the physical distance of each of the observatories on Earth. Moving observatories to all parts of our system will allow us to have vastly higher resolution.

Orbital dockyards and asteroid mining would be in reach if Starship delivers on its (admittedly pretty steep) promises.
Sure. The approach is very likely to be viable (we know that electric arcs produce fixed nitrogen), the reason to point to the specific technology is that they think the pricing just about works.
Great idea! I was looking for something like that.

A legend on badges would be great :)
Show HN: AI coach for runners using reinforcement learning
I have been experimenting with deep reinforcement learning since watching the DeepMind lecture series on YouTube a while back.

I'm also an obsessive runner, so I figured a good first project to build would be an AI coach for runners. What started out small... quickly turned into something big.

I've been using it myself for a couple of months and been tweaking it continuously. Feeding it new and improved data sets. I think for most normal runners (beginner -> immediate -> advanced) it works pretty well. It might be completely off if you're an elite runner. But I decided it's good enough to release to the world. So I'm launching it as an app for iPhone and Apple Watch (free for now). Would love to get some feedback from other runners.
It already does, if you hover over the text label of the achievement (not the graphical icon)

Listen to your body. Over 10 years ago I switched to being barefoot, or minimalist shoes depending on the situation. I no longer get cortisone shots in my knees and I no longer have any back pain. It just works for me.

I'd love to see the UK Government block access to Wikipedia over this, and then watch productivity in academia (and many industries) drop by 20-30% overnight, while the international press compares them to Turkey and Pakistan, until they eventually get slapped by the High Court.

There's already some pretty nice improvements in TTL in v1.10. I plan to move onto the v1.10 betas once those are cut, since it's not an insignificant difference. A lot of the testing is being done on the test package https://github.com/JuliaComputing/OmniPackage.jl which is a purposefully massive mess of packages. It's a bit difficult to make a direct comparison because there's many different computers benchmarking and it's quite difficult to get that gigantic chunk of packages to be exactly the same versions across multiple Julia versions (since some dependencies bump the Julia minimum and such), but you can get some relative numbers by looking at some of the PRs that mention Omnipackage. In v1.8.5 it took about 100 seconds to load and some GC improvements dropped that to about 50 in v1.9 betas (https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/49185#issuecomment-1...) back a few months ago, while 3 weeks ago a change reported improving it from 21s -> 17s (https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/49404, with of course many other changes in the middle, just search Omnipackage in the PRs to see the list). Again, not quite apples to apples but in terms of relative magnitude you can see it has many major improvements. There's also some big pieces that haven't merged, like how code loading can be invalidated which is unnecessary and https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/49525 can handle that. There's also some ideas for "clumping" invalidation checks to take it down another notch.

So with all of these piling up, I think v1.10 will make a great new LTS since v1.9 feels a bit "4/5 of the way there" because there's still the using time to chop down in the next release to get things to sub-second.
The key to being a walkable city is to developed as a city BEFORE cars. Then they had dense grids because most people walked or took wagons at best.

Cities didn’t develop in southern hot climates until really the advent of air conditioning, which aligns roughly with the rise of cars.
Think of it like this: the universe doesn't care what we want, or what we find to be clean abstraction. When our programs are run on real, physical hardware they will be faced with the physical limits of those systems.

If that means sequential writes are significantly faster than random writes then no amount of OS abstraction will make an application that is structured to require random writes as fast as one that uses sequential ones.

If you don't care about performance, then the abstraction layers we have let you ignore this level of detail already.
