I haven’t used it for some time but OCaml certainly used to have a zoo of incompatible compiler extensions. Circa 2008 or so I once hit on the brilliant idea of using protobufs to get two mutually incompatible halves of an ocaml program to talk to one another only to find that required yet another compiler extension to work.

Around the same time they realize breaking formation and running a half marathon charge against the enemy, while screaming at the top.ofnyour lungs, is a bad battlefield tactic.

So never.
The snow is too deep on either side, with too many trees to quickly and effectively turn around without getting stuck. It might work, but he could very easily have gotten stuck trying to do it. You also need to drive forward to start the turn, and the moose absolutely can outrun your snowmobile in that snow, so if it attacks you're going to have a problem.

Reverse isn't always available on snowmobiles. Even if this one had reverse, in this loose snow it would likely dig in and bury itself. I guess you've never ridden a snowmobile?

Bear in mind that this is Dmitry Medvedev, who constantly says extreme things that don't reflect Russia's actual foreign policy (but are useful for intimidating the weak-willed into submission). Before this gem he was the primary nuclear saber-rattler.

He's a scarecrow, nothing more.
"you can't swing a 9-iron in the Apple/iOS ecosystem without hitting a pragmatist in pain". This line was very funny, but I wonder (not being an Apple person myself) the extent to which, 8 years later, Swift has alleviated this.

Yeah, it's especially good for a quick news update because of the limitation to one page per article (not sure exactly how many characters you can fit in, but it's not a lot).
Nice, thank you! For me there are several no-gos, such as advertisements and it not being FOSS but for the majority of people it looks like the perfect choice.
I posted this exact question here a while back about 3.5. OpenAI keeps neutering ChatGPT to find the lowest common denominator of what they think is "acceptable" results, which makes the entire model suffer.
Is there really a market for a response though? Now, I'll be honest that I know very little about this market. What I do know from doing a decade of presales before covid hit, is that people who buy GPUs go for aggregate max on a big node farm. Now, most of my clients who bought GPU-heavy scale-out nodes were in the financial industry, so maybe deep learning stuff is different. Their workloads were massively parallel, and could scale out instead of needing something singularly fast.

So I guess my question is - what use case is there for a huge truck that goes 200mph and take 4 trips, when you could just buy 16 regular trucks, and move your apartment in the same amount of time at half the cost.

The researchers who worked on the "sparks of AGI" paper noted that the more OpenAI worked on aligning GPT-4 the less competent it became.

I'm guessing that trend is continuing...
Ask HN: Google blocked my url/Gmail because they don't accept my ad verification
I use google ads for a small app I started - I've been working on it for 2 years and things have been going pretty well. However my advertising account got suspended 2 months ago and despite me submitting and resubmitting different documents probably 10 times I have yet to get it unsuspended, with 0 feedback and no one to talk to. Because of the ad suspension they have also suspended my main domain/email which was connected, which has been a huge blow.

This is pretty devastating considering I've spent 2 years building this and was finally seeing traction only to get cut off like this. Does anyone know of some way to reach a human or at least get feedback on what needs to be done? I feel like my application is in a black hole and I have no idea what to do.
My pet peeve with bathroom scales is that it is impossible to find one that actually does what it claims and has accuracy of +-0.1kg. They do show the measurement to 0.1, but just shifting your weight differently can cause a difference of hundreds of grams. Does anyone knlw a scale that actually measures at 0.1kg accuracy?
Oh that's really good to know, I didn't realise it had that much outside input. In that case I'd feel a lot more comfortable betting on it.
Josh resigned, that's probably more what you're looking for.
>> I got some anonymous feedback a while back asking if I could do an article on how to become a systems engineer. I'm not entirely sure that I can, and part of that is the ambiguity in the request. To me, a "systems engineer" is a Real Engineer with actual certification and responsibilities to generally not be a clown. That's so far from the industry I work in that it's not even funny any more.

Seriously though, if you look up "systems engineering" on Wikipedia, it talks about "how to design, integrate and manage complex systems over their life cycles". That's definitely not my personal slice of the world. I don't think I've ever taken anything through a whole "life cycle", whatever that even means for software.

Just have to love the beginning!
" I’d rather have all this be regulated with oversight, than the alternative."

Yeah well, that raises the old question: who guards the guards?

As far as I am aware, police and politicians themself, react quite allergic to more transparency (surveillance) for them.

So the only way I would be remotely ok with more surveillance and regulation, is if would apply to everyone and especially to the regulators. Otherwise a clear no from me, I simply do not trust the authorities. And there are still lots of ways to communicate besides regulated spaces. But sure if, you want to be heard by the mainstream, you are going into regulated territory.
I would guess to make it cheaper to run, and safety as plausible explanation.

F# (and ocaml, on which it was modelled) are oop languages. If you don’t like oop there are functional programming languages that might be better fit for you.
Lisp derived languages, with dynamic gradual typing, and dynamic scopes, say hello.
It seems like you're saying you'd rather have a slower implementation given that a bunch of single instructions useful for this sort of thing aren't available in the Vector API and must be built from sequences of Vector methods that themselves must be implemented using multiple instructions.
Nvidia's enterprise GPUs are surprisingly unreliable. Working on a 128 GPU A100 cluster on AWS, 1 would fail every few days. I didn't have any insight on whether it was a hardware or software failure.
‘It is not trained on Gmail data’ is a clear statement. To do so would be madness and would have reputational consequences (it also wouldn’t be too smart in this regulatory climate).

But having a jquery frontend experience with a single-threaded backend system doesn't do it any favours ;)
Are you thinking of preprocessors? Back then, it would have been via Camlp4 and Camlp5.
The code changes have references to something that looks like it’s searching for a dll… isn’t that a windows thing? Or is that a generic search for a library?
There is not much that could help them. The search engine monopoly times wont repeat, despite some people trying very hard to build a regulatory captured Alphapersude monopoly. For that you need to offer an actual edge over the competition. Treating the users worse isnt one. Which brings us back to OP, progress will luckily eat anyone attempting that.
> 2PC tends to have limited throughput due to the participants needing to hold a lock between the voting and commit phase

Scalability depends on lock granularity, what's more...

> Sagas [...] can have high throughput

There is no real difference as sagas in practice implement locking in disguise - take the scenario of flight/hotel/car booking:

Once you book a hotel - this particular resource (a room at a particular time) is effectively locked. Cancelling the booking (because other participants failed in saga) is effectively releasing the lock.
The room (resource) is locked for the duration of the whole process anyway (as no other customer can book it during this time).

The downside of sagas is that a programmer is forced to explicitly handle all failure scenarios - which costs development time, is error-prone etc.
But you gotta admit, some of these fillings were impressive
The technical term is GPGPU, general-purpose computing on GPUs, but I like to call them GPUs for short.
Might be because the "traditional" parties got to be led more and more by oligarchs and the regular citizen feels more and more disconnected from what is happening up there. On the other hand the authoritarians play at the same time big on the populism so they get wins after wins being the only ones promising their voters a reconnection to leadership. You could ask, what's so difficult for the old parties to do the same and I can only shrug and assume they don't care that much because the oligarchs are the ones paying.
Literature says cats can't understand it when you point at something. That's because they don't have fingers. You can point at things using your eyes and they understand. One day I was eating some fruits and a stray cat came to me and started meowing. I gave it a piece which it rejected and started meowing again. I stared for a couple seconds at my plate and then at the piece on the ground and the cat looked like it understood and stopped meowing.
"Don't do it" is easy to say, but you are the government / law enforcement and drug cartels are murdering your citizens, so maybe that's just not good enough?

Using the present tense to answer a past-tense question is hardly unambiguous.

"Did you send an email to Fred?" -- "No, I'm not sending an email to Fred" doesn't answer the question.

It's not a "conspiracy theory" to have realized that big corps have teams of people to frame their public statements with carefully chosen words to present issues in the best light for them, even if it's deeply misleading.
As I said, I'm a long time paying Fastmail user, and working at Google hasn't caused me to rethink that.

It's worth remembering that the Gmail API does more than IMAP can, and predates JMAP. I understand how Google would get to this point.
Nothing about IMAP is simple. JMAP was created partially due to IMAP being so complicated to implement and use.
It's not per parameter, you also need to hold activations for back prop to work.

Millennial vote share is increasing every year. Big media's influence is declining and has a time-limit. Already there has been big declines in trust and prestige associated with these businesses.

According to this [0] peak voting age is 45+. The oldest millennials are around 40 now, so in a decade or two, you can expect a steep decline in big media - these companies are still in business at all.

Wasn’t it discovered later that the husband and the moose were in cahoots and had planned the whole thing together?
They just ask most people if they are a citizen and if they look white enough CBP waives them past. If they don't CBP pulls them into secondary where they have a sniffer dog that alerts on their car allowing them to search the car and it's occupants at which point they will check their ID and run it through their system.

Personally I refused to answer, set the parking brake, turned the car off, and removed the key. They told me to go to secondary and I just didn't say anything and kept looking forward. Eventually enough traffic backed up behind me on the freeway they just waived me through to get traffic moving again. I know the courts have found it to be legal, but I don't care. I'm not going to comply. If no one complied they wouldn't be able to get away with this shit. Unfortunately most people don't care.
There aren’t any that go direct to maildir. There is mujmap that syncs to notmuch. I wasn’t able to get it to work the way I wanted, and wrote my own that I’d be happy to share. I’ve been using it for around a month with no issues but that’s certainly not much confidence yet!

The advantage of going straight to notmuch is that the data model is so similar to JMAP that synchronizing is just that much easier. Both ends can give you a state and all emails which have changed from that state. Then it’s just a matter of updating the tags on those to each end or uploading/downloading the email if it’s new.

I get something like 1.7kB round trip data usage when there are no updates (really it’s 0kB save for the keepalive when used in daemon mode) and ~100ms for that round trip. This is in comparison to several megabytes for a single mbsync poll (even when there are 0 changes) and ~5 seconds

Ah, I see. Their Zendesk doesn't show any addresses for me at all. Will have to look into that, though.
I don't know why people read my post as a defense of Rust policies - I just said they are at the extreme end of the spectrum, that's not an endorsement.
they're also looking for anything related even tangentially to Molson's relationship with Amazon (emails, messages etc)

But Amazon should already have that information, seeing as it was party to that relationship? Can't he just answer with "go search your own archives" (or legalese to the same effect) for those things?
I think not directly, but probably on data derived from it.
Hey all - Noodl co-founder here. Just wanted to chime in about what will be open source vs commercial.

Everything you need to build, deploy, maintain, and host applications will be free and fully open source. We will offer a commercial version with extra features, including collaboration tools, version control, and optimizations for scaling apps.

We're taking a measured (aka, slightly slow) approach to the transition to ensure we get the governance model right and have time to include community members in the process.

This whole situation is making people who have started discussing Rust as a serious future look like imbeciles.

Snowden showed they absolutely spied on each other and shared documents, though the legality question is still not exactly set. From the wikipedia on Five Eyes:

> Documents leaked by Snowden in 2013 revealed that the FVEY has been spying on one another's citizens and sharing the collected information with each other, although the FVEY nations maintain that this was done legally. It has been claimed that FVEY nations have been sharing intelligence in order to circumvent domestic laws, but only one court case in Canada has found any FVEY nation breaking domestic laws when sharing intelligence with a FVEYs partner.[11][12][13][14]
Hmm, so all the game graphics are monochrome? They could use color, at least for the sprites (monsters, powerups, incoming fireballs etc.) to make them more easy to see. In Teletext the colors are set at character level, and there's only 8 of them, but at least that's something...
One of the main issues with this is that OO as practiced in C# and Java is only a very thin extract from the real OO as provided by for instance Smalltalk. And without that kind of environment you end up with the worst of both worlds, where you have an OO like interface layered on top of things that aren't really objects to begin with, because they aren't 'alive'.
If your complaint surfaces enough airplay here or in other tech media it may unlock some reconsideration but please understand that many pleas like this turn out to have details which are not shared but material. I no nothing of your case and I do not work for google. I just observe their T&C exclude a lot of things people consider normal and their processes demand tight adherence to their path, their timelines.

If you e.g. failed to respond to a mail mistakenly sorted to spam.. you will own the process failure, even though it lies in their hands to manage spam filtering to Gmail accounts.

Personally, I think we need independent arbiters with legal formalism over this kind of thing. It's beyond normal to have the same contracting agency as judge, jury, executioner and keyholder of the digital assets.

Use Google takeout. Don't wind up captive to your data on an at-will closure.

If you try to work around this informally by eg making another account and resubmitting the same things you may do yourself, your case, irreparable harm in their eyes.
I work close enough to systems engineering to have some insight: The good systems engineers are strong generalists, have one core competency with deep knowledge and expertice, good enough knowledge in related fields to understand and work with experts, and are generally good at engineering.

Your phrasing is interesting: "visible drama". Which suggests it would be "better" for Rust if it covered these things up :). Obviously that would be hard to do at the moment. It's actions are fairly open and there is a very keen interest in "drama" from everyone from HN to popular YouTubers who can boost the signal.

Personally I think some amount of immediate drama is necessary to force positive change. Better than many orgs that keep this kind of thing behind closed doors (and somebody maybe writes a blog post about it years later).
