But bit flips may not be noticed any time soon in the disk cache, and when they are later noticed, may be wrongly attributed to disk failure. It's a different failure mode than a bit flip in some source code that you are about to compile (which is far less likely to happen, due to that source code being a much "smaller target").
Yes, there are tons of companies out there that pay much better than Microsoft (that most people have likely never heard of).
IQ is a number that measures something. We do some retrofitting to make it normal. In theory, 1 in 30,000 people will have an IQ of 160 or higher as you say. But I think that's giving too much credit to the measure, and to g. Which is just working memory times application of logic or something like that. I personally think IQ is intellectually bankrupt.
The promo system I have seen in a FAANG company consistently selected for those who were 1.5X the average employee in terms of competency and 10X the average in terms of greed and shameless-ness.

Put this next to the fact that high level executives are paid upwards of 100X the average employee.
I agree, the main problem with PHP in my experience so far has been that it's very memory-hungry and slow (even PHP7/8), especially when coupled with frameworks/ORM magic.

I remember after spending some time with Go, I got used to being able to process tens of thousands objects in memory in milliseconds. When I proposed to do the same in PHP, during architecture review, PHP devs thought I'm out of my mind because that would take like a gig of RAM (which would compete with other PHP processes on the server) and considerable amount of time. You have to use a lot of hacks to make it all fit in memory and be fast.

Our Symfony framework also initializes in like 300 ms on each request, while in Go it's below 10 ms. As every PHP process dies after serving a request, you have to reinitialize the whole dependency container on each request from scratch, and in large enterprise applications, that's a lot of dependencies.
Looks great but easily runs out of context if you happen to ask too much of it in the demo [2]

The original starCoder in the hf chat assistant [1] was just disappeared and now the download page demands you signup and share data. From the forums it looks like it was a bit hit and miss. I hope this new one with better assistant is put back in.

Eh? The "cosmic ray" (or similar upset) is roughly equally likely to affect any bit in the 32GB, so the chance of it appearing in the 1GB that you're using right now is 32 times smaller than the chance of it happening anywhere in your RAM.

Wages are not downstream of profits - they are a price in a market for labor. If companies could pay 0 they would pay 0, and if employees could charge infinite they would charge infinite.

It's better this way - otherwise employees at companies that make no money would have to take no salary.
I meant star type imports or rather lack of it.
It's usage scenario is completely different though. Generally, LTO is best-suited for backups and appending changes to the tape rather than reading it back. It's the backup method you hope you never need to use, but you'll be glad it's there if the shit hits the fan that badly.

I'm not going to debate semantics, but I will hit on the other issue. This is a site you may find interesting: https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/

The reason we were forced to default (or whatever you want to call it) on our obligations under Bretton Woods is that our economic policies were enabling inflation to start spiraling out of control. Cumulative inflation from 1913 to 1970 increased 306%. That was a major problem. From 1913 to today? It's 3091%. This causes countless problems in society. Take wealth inequality for instance. Workers have always expected annual raises, even in times of negligible inflation, but in inflationary times those those raises often struggle to even keep up with inflation. This [1] is a graph of real wage for workers. It understates the picture as it starts in 1979, at which point the decline was already in full swing.

But even there, you see but a 10% real increase in wages over the past 40 years. By contrast, real GDP/capita [2] has increased by more than 100%. And not only are there are far more basic costs to life today than in 1979 (internet, electronic devices, etc) but many things like housing and education costs have accelerated dramatically far ahead of nominal inflation. So you have a world with more billionaires than ever, and one where more people than ever can't afford to even feed themselves without government assistance. And this is not even scratching the surface of the issues. Basically we had a small problem in 1971. Instead of solving it, we stuck a bandage on it - leaving a later generation to solve a dramatically larger problem.

Doesn't it actually help with inflationary spending? The Fed making a play at depressing wages and increasing unemployment is what's keeping inflation in check.

God knows the rich won't ever pay their fair share.

> To note, you'll need strict mode for type hints to be useful

This is not really true — those type hints can be read by static analysis tools, preventing you from many of the issues that would also be caught in strict mode at runtime.
They’re radically different.

Things like <link rel="stylesheet">, <script> and <img> are subresources: instructions to the browser to fetch and use the specified resource, so that the page can be rendered properly. As you say, the user agent can choose to ignore these instructions (and text-mode browsers will generally ignore all three of these subresource types), but the page will probably be materially compromised, and the developer placed the subresource there with the expectation that it will be loaded.

A hyperlink is a reference to another page altogether, that it’s up to the user to access if they choose to. It’s not a subresource.

Thanks for adding this context. As someone suffering from SNHL with a great wish to have some of my hearing restored, headlines & articles like these often give my a sense of hope for a near-term solution that turns out to be false. I wish (pop)scientific news would be a little bit more nuanced/careful..

Anyway, great that another small but significant step is made in this terribly complicated problem :)
It is literally the SEC's responsibility to protect people from their own mistakes.
Well, at that point, why not LTO? Much better price-per-TB, despite initially comparatively expensive buy-in price for the drive/library.
While 500k order does not sound as much - you have to remember an order != a request.

Not to mention that as long as you have a direct sync query to a database - your code will have to wait, lol.
> increase the income taxes of wealthy people considerably (specifically income taxes, not business taxes). A 50%+ marginal rate will help motivate C-level execs to opt for re-investing profits into their business rather than into buybacks of their stock to boost their own personal income

Why would anyone try to make less money as taxes on them increase? Makes no sense.
I switched to Linux entirely (but may reinstall windows as a second OS for some games if I get the wild hair...), and while it can still be buggy at times here and there (Arch Linux, so go figure), it's usually my fault, and it can be remedied most of the time.

Still a thousand times better of an experience than Windows.
I think your writing style is totally fine. If something feels icky and sounds like a fraud, it's fine to call it out, and use whatever words you want to do so.

Give it 10 years and we'll have actual walkouts for a company that slashes worker pay in the face of huge inflation, unaffordable housing, and record profits. The older generations that still drink the company koolaid are holding back the most pro union generations ever. Its sites like this which contain illogical hero worship of the investor class that keep workers from knowing their value.
I love PHP, but a red flag?! If they’re busy in the Ruby/Java/C#/Go worlds (all get-it-done environments) then I’d just assume they don’t read many Hacker News praises for PHP. It’s easy to have not encountered it since the bad old days unless you work on a team that uses Laravel for some things.

I do understand hiring someone who has that tradesman programming ethic and is comfortable with Linux, but that’s more requiring certain positive traits.
I appreciate your openness to feedback and encourage you to delve deeper into the subjects of your articles moving forward.

Consider alternative perspectives, and attempt to steel-man the position opposite to the one you wish to present. As you mention ChatGPT, GPT can assist in providing counterarguments, helping you see the fuller picture.

Keep in mind that condemning articles can have consequences. While Librem could hurt their investors — the risk is actually inevitable in most businesses, your blog can also harm those striving towards a noble cause.

Best of luck with your future articles.
In the US the avg cost of 1000 views to the advertiser is probably $15+. (I’ve spent millions(?) on YT ads)

You can’t average global numbers like that when the average in Indonesia is possibly sub a dollar.

So the premium YouTube subscription might just cost around double what is “fair”

Except those who are most likely to buy it are likely power users who watch twice as many videos.

Which would make the price perfectly fair.

So I’m not sure there’s really a problem here.
My hearing is not particularly bad, and my tinnitus tends to come and go depending on the environment. Still, I would love to resolve it once and for all. It's a pretty common condition too.
That's not the risk. The risk is that Github has lackluster permissions and audit trailing and an employee could leak and sell keys. Or that they log keys and someone hacks their logs.

Rotating the secret is 100% the correct thing to do in this case.

Maybe we’ll have to create something where like-minded actual people share links to content they found interesting?

Perhaps this thing could be tailored to a specific community? Or be, itself, a community of communities?

I may just be onto something here… damn, this may be a billion dollar idea.

Joking aside, I’m pretty sure this will make communities like HN and Reddit, and closed discords, slack & all, blow up.

Google’s results already are worthless half the time anyway.
This shows that information about the measurement didn’t travel from one particle to the other.

Either:

- the information was always spread out (non-local)

- the two particles aren’t really separated, they just appear to be (non-Euclidean)

- the information was made up on the spot (non-real)

Scientists often don’t talk about the first two options; this article omits them, because it’s hard to think about (and violates an assumption scientists make — that you can study bits of reality in isolation).

Personally, I don’t think option #3 makes much sense — I think it was a calculation trick that has outlived its usefulness.

But that would mean admitting Einstein was right, which doesn’t let you write pithy article titles.
Going from 1-10 cents per view to 3-30 cents per view (and this is generous, some estimates put the low end at 2/10 cents per view) doesn't seem that big of a deal. Encourage your subscribers to buy a single $5 superchat/superthanks/1 month membership instead (of which you get $3.50) every so often instead and continue to enjoy a life of improved sanity from no ads via adblock without paying an egregiously large monthly fee for Premium.
I mostly understood that you were talking about the community, not the mods, but now that you mention it, I confused the two in my reply. The first two paragraphs were about the community but then the bit about refs was about the mods. Interesting—thanks for pointing that out!

You may be the first person who has ever indicated that they've gotten that point!
My team checked out the similar thing they're pushing in ADO (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/a...). The messages from that thing do tell you to rotate, though AFAIK not having looked that far into it just breaks the build, not proactive push detection.
> If you know both languages, which one would you pick?

The one with the best density of good developers in your hiring region if the application ends up scaling.

> Alternatively: what would you suggest someone getting into web development to learn? PHP or Ruby?

Neither. I would tell them to get into the Javascript ecosystem - not because I think it's necessarily good, but because that's where most of the work is. I'd also reccomend picking up at least one other general purpose language to be a bit more rounded such as Golang, Java, C#, Python.
hind sight is 20/20. I'm not saying tech CEOs are psychopaths or anything. IMHO they are just incompetent and not worth the salary they receive which is often 500X the average employee.

In fact they remind me of financial advisors who charge you regardless of whether they make you or lose you money and are all consistently worse than passive investment in the long run.

That's how I feel about these overpaid CEOs. They are worth orders of magnitude less than they are paid

Has anyone done the maths on the square footage of the average data centre roof against the average power consumption of a modern-day data centre? It's either going to be disappointing relative to the cost of the panels, or very cool. I tend to be very conservative over these things, but in the right climate, probably starts to make sense for some data centres, but depends on what you're running in them. If it's mining crypto or running Xbox cloud gaming then lol, probably not.

Cooling is probably the biggest pain; the sunnier the climate, the more demanding cooling is going to be.
I'm still new at the company, but it seems like promotions are basically (at best) the accumulated COLA adjustments one ought to have been given, but they make it seem like some performance-based thing.

Indeed, I have a RSU vesting schedule 4 years from hire. It is financially unwise to stay beyond that on-hire grant vesting period, it seems.
> "privilege" is a code word and a slur on those who do not agree, and a way to try to shut down rational conversation.

I'm not convinced this is the case, or that it is indeed "loaded language" as claimed, as the only evidence behind such claims is you, a random person on the internet, claiming them

in fact, it's beginning to seem like maybe you don't know what privilege is at all. Perhaps you could illustrate that you do, and get back on topic at the same time, by explaining the privilege shown by the post at the beginning of this thread (rather than repeatedly trying to shut down rational conversation with your tone policing)?
Slipped a lot during the pandemic, you got a lot of the following:

1. Team has an eng with 1 yoe at the company and 2 eng who just joined

2. Manager tells eng with 1 yoe at the company "lead this project" because they're the only person who's on-boarded

3. Project ships and eng with 1 yoe says "I lead a multi person project, I am senior"

4. Manager promotes them out of fear of a job hob

This happened to a lot of people during the pandemic and as the bar has raised back up many of these folks are struggling.
If there's no oligopoly, why does it matter that a lot of people rent? What part of your original comment does that support?
If inflation on what you spend your money on is 10%, then yes.

To get the blue tick. As of today, it now gives encrypted DMs too, but I can't see many people sharing sensitive data over a Twitter DM.
Two things I think about (obviously it's very context dependent):

- Quick returns go inside the condition to save a level of nesting in the function; try to minimize level of nesting of the main function body

- I try to return a value at the end of a function that will do the least harm if I somehow fall through (because maybe I've messed up the condition or something), for example:

def launch_nukes():
if you_are_sure():
launch()
abort()

It's not always obvious how best to structure a function to meet the second criteria, but in general I try to think defensively (how to minimize chances of bad bugs both now and when I come back in 6 months).
I'm on HN mostly on a samsung 10" tablet but in my day job I work on my mac. If I tried harder DeX might work for me.
ChatGPT can't replace writing intended to convey information, but that's only a small fraction of the writing that's getting created. There's a whole industry where people are given prompts like "five paragraphs about the history of spaghetti" and get paid $0.01 per word, then that text gets put into an Italy-themed travel blog full of ads.

You and I wouldn't notice if that entire industry was replaced by ChatGPT because nobody reads that text, it doesn't exist to be read, it exists to tickle some ranking model deep in the bowels of Google. But you can be sure that the people selling coherent text for $0.01/word will notice when ChatGPT can generate the same thing for $0.000001/word.
Imperfections in vector images make me twitch
You're assuming the rules you need to follow are a superset of the plain text of the law as written. This is incorrect.

One example: assault with a deadly weapon. The definition of "deadly weapon" various wildly in different jurisdictions and isn't always clear simply from the case law. In some jurisdictions it means any weapon theoretically capable of being deadly, so slapping someone with a flip-flop (real example) could count.
Actually I was replying to both of you (sadly not an obvious structural way to do that on HN), but perhaps I should have made it clearer that the "finite" concept PP was trying to get across actually seems to be scarcity - land is scarce, paper books less so - and intangible goods such as ebooks are not scarce at all (DRM attempts notwithstanding.)

Authorship may be scarce - costly and resource intensive (LLMs notwithstanding) as you describe, while copying and distribution of intangible goods like ideas or digital media is essentially free and unlimited, as I suspect PP was trying to say.

As you correctly note, the constitutional copyright bargain permits a limited time monopoly in return for (hopefully) advancing "the progress of science and the useful arts."
I want to second this. The top StackOverflow comment for protecting against XSS in PHP still recommends htmlspecialchars() https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1996122/how-to-prevent-x... which is a terrible and ancient approach (context-aware templates are the modern approach).

I also Googled to check CSRF protection and all the sites I can find just discuss rolling it yourself; the example uses some CSPRNG that can potentially return not cryptographically secure numbers without erroring. https://www.section.io/engineering-education/csrf-protection...

That's one thing that really drove me away from PHP. It presents an extremely simple seeming universe, in which web apps are very easy to write – but has really naïve bones, requiring a lot of extra scaffolding to be safe.
> Many Patreon creators allow you to see how many patrons they have.

Ahhh.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of that being optional either.

Many Patreon creators don't though, so it's kind of hard to tell. :/

That being said, I kind of wonder if the % of people paying creators is much different to the average % of people who pay for online services.

From (probably dodgy?) rough memory, that's something like 4% of users.

No idea how that works out when compared to $ from Youtube viewers though. :)
There is something with this idea: recreate a desktop environment in the browser. I have done it in the late 90s (obviously in PHP), and until today they show up regularly. Once MacOS, once windows, in svelte, in react, whatever. I thought it/I was brilliant then but nowadays I cannot even grasp the idea on why I did that.

Never seen any in production for anything, and the only remnants like movable panels of properties always feel misplaced on web pages/apps.
Sure, we tend to cut people a lot of slack, especially if their comments are a mix of good ones and bad ones, and it sometimes takes us years before we ban them.

If you'd please just not post any more generic ideological comments and/or flamebait, that would be good.
> It's not bad per-say..

Per se. It's Latin for “in itself”; has nothing to do with saying anything. Think about it: What would “per-say” even mean?
I would love one of these if they were trifold rather than bifold. That would mean the same number of screens, even, since the outer screen would become one third of the unfolded screen.
