Ask HN: What happens with social media monitoring apps once Reddit's API is paid
For example, a "free" service that I use and is "slightly" monetized by ads in the notification emails. F5Bot https://f5bot.com/.

Would Reddit ask them for $12,000 per month?
I just don't understand people who call von neumann style programming languages "lisp-like" or "almost a lisp". I've heard people say this of python and haskell as well, and I just don't see it, at all.
I can't even believe I'm doing this, but since both are important topics:

This is coming from a commenter who believes brushing your teeth, and presumably oral hygiene in general, to be hype.
I am not an expert in this field by any means but, Planet Money did a piece recently that suggested some people are putting forward a serious theory for how a profit-price spiral would work. Again, not an expert, but the reasoning ng seemed sound. Link here:

Sure, but that doesn't apply here. If you watch the video, the defender passes back to the goalkeeper. Backpasses by the defending team that are intercepted by the attacking player (even if they are in an offside position) are not considered offside, regardless of whether the attacker touches the ball first or the goalkeeper. From your link, this is the pertinent line:

"A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:

...

gaining an advantage by playing the ball or interfering with an opponent when it has:

- rebounded or been deflected off the goalpost, crossbar or an opponent

- been deliberately saved by any opponent

A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent who deliberately plays the ball, including by deliberate handball, is not considered to have gained an advantage, unless it was a deliberate save by any opponent."

I think from the Buddhist perspective, “desire” (I think “un-satisfactoryness” is a bit more accurate) is the prime mover
An important component to intelligence is self regulation. If anxiety or fear sizes you your cognition gets severely impaired.

You can see this in professionals. My uncle is a remarkable lawyer. He was responsible for very important clients and has steel nerves but he is unable to do math. I know he is very intelligent in general but his emotions doesn't let him learn math. Since he was a child he associated maths with high anxiety because his father was an engineer who got angry and frustrated when he tried to push maths to his son.

But in general sense I think the abstract concept intelligence doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is what you do, not your potential.
I do use a P40 for my machine learning box, but I'm curious how you put three on the same system, given they need a CPU power plug and a pci-e port. Then, to cool them, you need to plug your own cooling system, requiring more specific power plugs to be available. What kind of chassis, motherboard, power unit you use to do that? It'll certainly will cost more than $1000 anyway, especially since you also need a decent amount of RAM to preload the models before you move them to the GPUs.

Not if they are designed halfway reasonably. Any good LED should be driven with a PWM driver at high frequency, with low frequency mains AC (the source of the flicker) completely separated from the LED.

This costs slightly more than alternative methods that use mains directly and don't properly isolate the AC component :(
A lot of words to basically say: "we don't really understand it".

Personally I don't believe the human brain / science will ever be able to "understand" / "explain" consciousness. What would "understand" / "explain" even mean in that context?
I can't say whether that's actually happening or not, all I can say is it's a reasonable explanation as to why profits would be going up for many companies.
I've been on both sides and have gotten mixed results. But the SNR is higher than all the other places which is just wading through floods of bullshit
Many of us share the experience that we have been driving for an hour, and end up safely at home, but do not remember anything about it.

So we can fully operate in some kind of wakeful "sleep" state.

This tells us that "consciousness" is not constant, but fluctuates, and above certain threshold we can remember what happened. Unless we specifically observe this phenomena while it happens, we will reconstruct a "memory" of being conscious.

According to some meditation traditions, it is possible to learn to slowly increase the consciousness, mainly by learning to stop leaking out attention. Attention is the key to the consciousness.
Does that mean that the smartest and richest people of the past all died out, and we’re the descendants of yesteryear’s dumb-dumbs?
Coderholic hired me from HN!

I wanted to be a DE, but I got interviewed for a success engineer post for one company. So, in a random thread, I described what my plans would be if I got hired in a success role.

So, Coderholic saw that comment, he sent me an email and asked me to apply to be their first DevRel. He was extremely patient with me and was kind enough to give me a shot.

That's how I made it IPinfo. I really love my job, and I feel privileged to be a part of the team.

Author's lens is of work vs. rest, and sure enough, robots will always beat humans at work. Except that not all work is robotic. Sure, profits can be found in the rote optimization of process until the final result is made available through mass production for an affordable price; such optimization for process trends towards robotic optimization. But profit can also be found in the boutique, the artisan; a focus on quality and all other factors be damned, where the labor of love is self-inspiring and self-rejuvenating. Arguably, one's aim early in life should be to find for oneself labor that is so characterized - boutique, internally motivated, and capable of ekeing out a profit.
It's actually pretty good law which makes a distinction between innmark and utmark (innmark being cultivated land, grassing fields, gardens and so on and utmark being "wilderness", or everything that is not innmark), gives the public a right to use private roads and man made paths over innmark to reach utmark, protects the "private zone" (houses, including gardens) etc. It balances the publics right to roam with the land owners legitimate interests as good as possible in my opinion.

Seth's belief in a materialistic[1] explanation for consciousness and the human condition is something I subscribe to, too.

My view is that we are simply very complex, giant state machines built on top of ever-smaller state machines; all our thoughts, perceptions, and individual realities are the product of neuron connections in our CNS, and the various inputs to it throughout our lives.

Can you finish your point?

What is the takeaway?
The best "degrowth" argument I have seen is from a physicist [0]. His argument is based on hard limits to the amount of waste heat produced by energy consuming (i.e. all) activities of humanity. He shows that if the current rate of economic growth continued for the next 400 years then humanity would be consuming more energy than in all the sunlight reaching earth and would produce enough waste heat that the surface of the earth would boil.

So continuous growth is physically impossible, even alloting for nuclear fusion and miracle technologies.

That's just considering energy/electricity, which is optimistic because civilization has on the order of at least hundreds or thousands of necessary inputs that aren't fungible. Water, air, food, and other raw materials for our bodies and technologies will become scarce more quickly.

A huge amount of growth has been due to "free" value provided by ecosystems, fossil fuels, minerals, the sun, etc. If we get to the point where all the free stuff from nature is not enough and we have to fission and fusion our raw materials we will be living in a society of such profound scarcity that we could probably only subsist as rows of brains in vats.

So the degrowth argument is not that humans should voluntarily suffer to preserve a sentimental gaia aspect, but that suffering is inevitable due to unsustainability and that it would be better to spread it out over a longer time than suffer a major crash.

I think it's reasonable for companies to want to have infinite profits and $0 in costs to produce. That's what they're supposed to do.

My point is that when the OP says "inflation is the result of monetary/fiscal policy" (EDIT: paraphrased, not quoted, improved accuracy of paraphrase) it's inaccurate: people did not spontaneously choose to consume more food and fuel because they had increased spending power, but those prices went up and so did profits

So some companies are able to increase prices disproportionately because of their unique position as price setters and lack of competition. They absorb any increase in spending power and/or fiscal stimulus. Increase in interest rates absorbs whatever is left over.

As those price increases filter through the economy, price levels increase further and so on.

If there was more diversity in the food and energy sectors, then prices would not have increased as much as they did, and the increased fiscal stimulus would have dissipated throughout the economy, making its way into the pockets of more small businesses.

Now: should the government not stimulate the economy? Well, I doubt it, then people would have been really in the shit.

Should the govdernment better target their stimulus? Absolutely, I know in Australia it was very inequitably distributed.

Should the government implement policies to prevent those sectors with the least competition from hiking prices to absorb fiscal stimulus meant to avoid recession, thus keeping a cap on price level increases? I think so.

And I think the linked article does a good job of demonstrating the way in which "profit-price" interactions are a better way to think about inflation rather than "wage-price" interactions, and thus why it's unreasonable to expect labour to shoulder the burden of suppressing inflation, rather than capital.

By number or by area burned? - Either way can you cite your source for your figures?

It seems at odds with, for example, these quotes (of which there are many):

> Lightning remains a major cause of wildfires and the storms that have passed through Northern California are wreaking havoc for firefighters. [1]

> Lightning ignition explained more than 55% of the interannual variability in burned area, and was correlated with temperature and precipitation, which are projected to increase by mid-century. [2]

Sorry, free speech isn't really a human right, even in HN. I definitely haven't earned it. Maybe in the future.
That’s kind of dismissive. Just because something is “religion” doesn’t mean that it has nothing to say on the subject. In my experience, a lot of Indian “religious” texts have some pretty interesting philosophy above and beyond the dogma one might expect from religion. Eg, the Vedas talk a lot about perception and how it influences our experience in the world.
and the gist of the problem is that it doesn't.
No, it's caused by cost. For example Java has a char type. It's a 16 bit numeric value because Java uses UTF-16 internally for encoding strings. Java Strings are basically immutable char arrays with some fluff around them. If you ask for the String length, it returns the length of the underlying array. Nice and simple and unsurprising. And relatively cheap. Most more recent languages use 8 bit bytes and UTF-8 instead because that is emerged as the most common character encoding. But UTF-16 was a reasonable choice a quarter century ago and the practical difference doesn't matter that much and changing it would be disruptive.

If you put unicode characters consisting of multiple data points into a String, it necessarily increases the amount of chars. There's no way around that. Because there is no such thing as a UnicodeChar type in Java. You can't actually assign multi data point unicode characters to a char.

Essentially all the workarounds for a 'correct' unicode character count in a String would either end up using a different and probably way more expensive data structure (e.g. a list of a list of chars or bytes where each list is a unicode character) or implementing some expensive logic for counting characters that is O(n) instead O(1). Most languages ranging from extremely strictly typed to weakly typed don't do that for cost reasons. The tradeoff is simply not worth the price it takes.

This stackoverflow post provides a few suggestions for how you could count 'correctly'.

Do shareholders give capital? Maybe if you’re on the board or something? But even then it really feels like shares are the dissemination of capital, where if your company does well then the share goes up. Like me buying 5 shares of Apple isn’t really giving Apple any capital as the price is based on market cap. Happy to learn if I’m wrong though.
Windows, Java, C#, javascript, a surprising number of XML documents (though less so as time marches on thankfully), ICU I think uses UTF-16 internally (for the same historical reasons as the other 4), JOLIET file names are UCS2, some phones interpret “16-bit” SMS as UTF-16 (the spec says UCS2).

> and BOTH of those are insane for sticking to it

They don’t really have much of a choice because they exposed those semantics as part of the string interface (or for Windows the interaction is slow low level it can’t be hidden), they have performance guarantees and behaviours which matches that.

It’s also why Python uses UTF-32, and went through the entire PEP-393 / FS complication to try and stop blowing up memory left and right: the core team considered that switching strings to UTF8 was a bridge too far.

There are approximate solutions, but they come with their own costs and complications (e.g. pypy uses UTF8 strings with lazily constructed indices to emulate UTF-32 strings).
I am using a tool called pdftotext (https://www.xpdfreader.com/pdftotext-man.html) here. I have used it in a previous project with great success when other tools would bug out or return a bunch of weird junk text. Give it a try!
I was offered a job in Munich I think in 2014. Unfortunately, the Cost of Living increase to be expected from living in Munich didn't stack up against the increase in salary.

A pity maybe, it would have allowed working with Clojure.
Exactly this. People conflate unicode with encoding quite a bit. I think it was plan9 and early Go that used "runes" as a unit, where one or more runes formed a character and an array of runes could be encoded into bytes using a given encoding.

The in memory size of a rune was just an implementation detail, and while it could be important for the programmer that the size of a rune was 2 bytes, this didn't mean the length of an array of 2 runes was 4.

I always liked the rune unit, and while my memory is hazy I think it was just code points.

I think part of the issue is programmers and apis mixing bit units for in memory representation of a conceptual value mapping (unicode), conceptual characters, stored size when encoded and so on ... without firming up those abstractions with interfaces. It gets lossy.
It probably happens due to the disabled hardware acceleration (or just WebGL). At least it's happened to me. Not surprising as the page draws a literal 3D horse.

"Should" being the keyword there. That dialog comes up fairly rarely in my experience, and only after waiting a very, very long time.
Berlin was always "special" that way. If it would suddenly be a functioning city, people wouldn't know what to complain about, and then what would they do all day? ;)
From what I recall, in vector machines, operations are still done in parallel due to chaining; the difference is that you're doing e.g. add(v[1]) and mul(v[0]) in parallel, then add(v[2]) and mul(v[1]), and so on, rather than add(v[0]) and add(v[1]) in parallel, then mul(v[0]) and mul(v[1]), &c, which makes support for any vector length trivial.

(I'm sure you know this; this is just for the benefit of anyone else perusing the comment section.)
Read no these sorts of headlines and despair.

There is no literal "global fertility". There are no aggregate testicles/ovaries that produce people.

There are only reproductive organs integrated with a body near you.

Marry. Prioritize family. Enjoy the blessing of your offspring, if possible. Participate in a community of faith, a like-minded extended family, that can enjoy life with you and help you raise those blessings, whether or not they are your own, or you take the noble road of adoption.
