I wonder if these laws could be encapsulated by a simple principle, which is that software has both per-project and per-unit costs, just like hardware. Notably, it contradicts the simplistic view that you can write a piece of software once and sell copies indefinitely at virtually no cost.
People often have tales like this. For instance, in Denver, they tell tales of developers who greedily sell homes for high prices. But the local Democratic Socialists of America lobbied hard with many other people to preserve a local golf course over allowing someone to build a home. It is a natural characteristic that the demand curve takes effect with fixed supply.

Some folks like to lament greed or profit, while adamantly refusing policy that makes markets efficient and erodes margins. It is an interesting dynamic.

Fourier methods are pretty common in PDEs and the QFT is the core ingredient of many quantum computing algos, such as the quantum phase estimation algorithm used to find eigenvectors (such as modes of wave equations) or the HHL algorithm used to solve linear systems of equations (for example linearized PDE). Let's check the literature though,

So apparently there are also quantum lattice gas models used for this, I know very little about those, but all the other methods are QFT based.

A while back I looked into getting pure digital signal out of my Wii. Turns out there were some off the shelf methods to do this but they weren’t compatible with my version of the Wii, so I had to do a bit of fine soldering and hacking. Definitely one of the most fun things I’ve done in a while and I surprised myself with my ingenuity and capability. This was right around a time I was feeling very burnt out on software engineering.

I’d recommend anyone here who likes video games and does software engineering facing the same doldrums look into hardware hacking. It’s really quite invigorating.

That is actually interesting. After all, if one took a genetic view of the world: those genes that were most successful have a better chance of being successful. They have been copied many more times and therefore accompany many different variants. The ones that have been competed away will need to either confer significant advantage to some time or be lucky enough to be close enough to another that carries them along.

That is a property that has existed for millennia, permitting useless genes that had past success to survive past when they provide strong utility.

And that has nothing to do with capitalism. It is merely a natural effect.

> One interesting thing is that io_uring can operate in different modes. One of the modes enables kernel-side polling [...]

On a related note, I recently saw this presentation[1] where they show some benchmarks of the various modes.

One gotcha of sorts, though obvious when you think about it, is that the kernel-side polling mode requires a free CPU core for the polling thread. Meaning you'll get very poor performance if you're not leaving enough CPU for the kernel to do its polling.

I've competed in a sport that involves hiking through the night (24 hour events, always coinciding with a full moon) and I've also camped a lot, so I have dozens of strong memories like this. But like you said, for large parts of the world, this experience would be uncommon.

Walking through the night for the first time felt like one of those "life before x, life after x" things to experience. Almost as though you don't realise you're allowed to do it: raised to be in bed by a certain time, "you might fall off a cliff or get eaten by an animal". But then you do it and realise it's an option always available to you.

Mostly navigating with a headlamp but often just switching it off to walk with the moon alone if the terrain is clear or you're on a decent track. Strong shadows at 2am.

This movie is scoring well with 98% on rotten tomatoes and 7.9 on imdb.

I had a blackberry passport. I bought it when I heard that blackberry was getting out of the phone OS business, So a terrible reason to buy one, but I have always been a fan of QNX and after this I would never get a chance to see what a qnx phone could be. My thoughts.

That keyboard, oh man that keyboard was very very good, I am on a full touchscreen phone currently and I curse that stupid virtual keyboard every time I have to use it. with a double curse if I have to use it while in a car.

There was not much left of qnx for the user to interact with, sort of like whatever is left of linux in android phones, kind of a hollow shell. however I did like the UI. it is hard to quantify but it felt better designed to be used, a tool. Android by comparison feels more like it was designed to look pretty with usability as a second class citizen. but really it is a minor thing.

I suspect the real advantage of having qnx as a real time os was how responsive it was, not fast, but always responsive, never any lag. but that may just be my imagination.

Edit: I just remembered the square screen, I love the square screen, and it took square pictures, what a great phone.

> Building is kind of.. the whole point.

Land development is not limited to "build anywhere you can". Purchases of land for later resale, when armed with knowledge about likely events, is a common strategy. In cities, you often have to deal with municipal pressures to do more. Parking lots filled empty plots in southern california 1980s and since 2015ish the number of Car Washes in Fargo, ND has grown to 80... a cash business with minimal overhead and a flimsy construction, which does not have to cover the entirety of the plot.

You're talking about democracy vs dictatorship, which is orthogonal to socialism vs capitalism.

In a socialist utopia you have more democracy than in a capitalist utopia, because "true" socialism gives workers democratic control over their workplace, where as "true" capitalism gives full control of the workplace to the capitalist.

Indeed, democracy is better at preventing corruption than dictatorship.
I agree with you, as do many of the experts who are using different terms to refer to the theory. The underlying theory isn't defined by the term and using some measure of greed as proof one way or the other would be a mistake.

Okay, so I asked ChatGPT4 to "Please program a short pattern matcher in Utero." At first it complained: "I'm sorry, but as of my knowledge cut-off in September 2021, there's no programming language called "Utero". Utero is the Latin term for womb, it's not known as a coding or programming language." But I insisted: "Make up what a language that might be called "Utero" would look like if you were to program factorial in it." Here's what it said:

Designing a hypothetical programming language named "Utero" is a creative exercise, and the language's structure and syntax could take any form. For the sake of this example, let's envision "Utero" as a language inspired by human biology, in which functions are organs and code blocks are cells.

Factorial is the product of an integer and all the integers below it, and here's how it might look in our imagined Utero:

Organ factorial(Num n) cells:
if (n equals 0) then:
give 1;
else:
give n times factorial(n minus 1);
endif;
endcells;

It is interesting to note that the most successful offensive land operation of the World War II was the Soviet offensive in August 1945 in Manchuria against the Japanese Kwantung army [0]. Within two weeks the Soviets (1.5M soldiers) annihilated Japanese army of about 1M soldiers and conquered the territory of the size of Western Europe. This together with American nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were major factors in Japan finally surrendering (better be occupied by Americans than Russians).

> you can launch multiple instances of a module, each of them can allocate memory separately

I don't think this is true, though? You're not getting separate processes; you're just getting separate hInstances. Which don't map cleanly to a process-like abstraction.

Consider: while you can (in theory) spawn multiple copies of a Win16 executable, with each spawn getting its own hInstance and therefore its own locals heap, this isn't an inherent part of Win16's architecture, but rather is something specific to its handling of spawning executables. DLLs weren't included in this handling, and so only get one hInstance+heap each. This means that if you load and call into the same DLL from two separate actively-running Win16 programs, then that DLL must juggle any state it wants to keep for its N active callers on its own single heap. A function call crossing semantically-distinct memory protection domains, without any kind of IPC serialization, is not very "process"-y. It's more of an object system, like the JVM.

(In both Windows and the JVM: each "object" has its own private heap, and a module wrapping access to that heap; and some "objects" additionally have their own concurrent execution thread. But a given execution thread isn't "bottled up in" a particular heap; it just has a "home" heap. If an execution thread calls another object's API, then that execution thread, through that API, manipulates that other object's heap. There's no concept of IPC — of manipulations of other objects' heaps requiring you to ask the other object whose execution thread owns that heap to do the manipulation for you.)

> The existence of Yield/DirectedYield , which do not take/need a window, is also a hint of that.

DirectedYield is an attempt to make Windows tasks seem to act like "processes"... in the Communicating Sequential Processes sense, at least.

But it doesn't really accomplish this. From the Windows 3.1 API Reference Guide:

> If an application uses DirectedYield for a task with no events scheduled,
the task will not be executed. Instead, Windows searches the task queue.
In some cases, however, you may want the application to force a specific
task to be scheduled. The application can do this by calling the
PostAppMessage function, specifying a WM_NULL message identifier.
Then, when the application calls DirectedYield, the scheduler will run the
task regardless of the task's event status.

In other words, what's really acting as CSPs here, are the windows. :)

It is normally high risk, high reward in humans. There is the traditional, conservative, predictable route. And there is the novel, which might work and get you called a genius, but more likely not work well, perhaps leaving you destitute or dead. A successful society needs many people to hunt as their parents taught, and an adaptable society needs a few mavericks to find new hunting grounds, prey, and to invent the boat. Monetary rewards tend to be for the plodding rather than the mavericks, because indulging curiosity is fun and its own reward. There are some theories that this is why some mental illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have not been evolved away, because occasionally similar traits can save the tribe when others fail to adapt.

“Pre-war Russia” would have been clearer. They consider Crimea as Russian as Moscow and would respond accordingly to a serious attack. They are apparently more pragmatic about the new territories.

There’s a reason they hide the work of SBU, GUR and also certain Western countries under monikers like “Russian Volunteer Corps”. And why these attacks are, all things considered, rare and their effect negligible. We might, however, see significantly more of that in the near future and Russia could finally be forced to respond overtly.
