Those alternative sites failed because the only reason to use them was if you were too trashy to be welcome on Reddit.

A RedReader/Apollo/etc. run alternative wouldn't exist for that reason so I think it would stand more of a chance.

I don't think Reddit will give them enough runway to have time to set that up though.
Even the poorest NUTS1 zones in continental France trend above 0.850 (ie. "Developed"/"First world").

Most Russian regions excluding the region around Moscow is above 0.800 but below 0.850 at the macro level (microlevel Caucasian Oblasts and Far Eastern Oblasts are around 0.750-0.800 but not too bad).

By most standards, at a developmental level Russia is definetly developed, but then again it is roughly comparable to Turkiye or Thailand developmentally, so it is by most standards 15-20 years behind living standards in Western Europe, but none of this is too surprising tbh.

If we're being honest, it is a country in the Middle Income Trap. It almost became a developed country (the gains before the Ukraine War began in 2014 were amazing and broke into the Developed category), but a decade of economic development was lost after the post-Crimea sanctions and the subsequent war from 2014-Present.

Then again, a country like Russia has significantly narrowed the gap from a quality of life standpoint, but conversely, this also makes countries like Russia much more susceptible to a brain drain a la Poland or Czechia.

This is correct, telnet will send IAC codes (0x255) followed by two bytes. WILL, WONT, DO, DONT. If telnet encounters a IAC code, it will read the next two bytes or subcommand bytes hiding that from your output. Telnet should not be used for TCP debugging.
One of the factors of IQ is long term memory though so they're not orthogonal either.
Doctors… don’t murder folks (I mean, yes, this has happened, but not as a strategy of a strike). It’s a nonsense hypothetical created to make striking sound absurd. I’ve already described in general terms how striking in health care works. Walking out to strike mid-open-heart surgery doesn’t happen - it doesn’t benefit the doctor, and they would be liable for their actions (and for violating the 10-day notice, presumably). There are legal differences between property damage and taking a life, so the comparison isn’t particularly useful.
The safe assumption is that if there is a computer sitting on your LAN that you don't have access to that has access to your stuff that you have a massive security issue in waiting. That it hasn't materialized yet doesn't mean a thing and there are plenty of documented security holes associated with the ME, and likely many more that you simply will never know about. This stuff has been chewed to bits on HN and elsewhere.

If you feel different that's fine but with security the old adage 'better safe than sorry' applies very much and given the data collected so far the evidence of 'some old leak' times n is rather more solid than your belief in the opposite. FWIW Intels claims that they would not cooperate with the NSA are worth absolutely nothing because the USG has the power to tell Intel to stay quiet about such a deal.

If CISCO could be influenced by the NSA then so can Intel, either through supply chain interdiction or through more direct means. But to categorically claim that this is an impossibility is nonsense, the relevant questions are (1) has it been done? and (2) how would we ever find out given the locked up status of the ME? and (3) who past Snowden would be brave enough to leak the evidence if it exists?
Don't forget that restaurants not only exist at reasonable prices, but they don't all go out of business without tipping.
On you, money will be lost,
either by Amazon or whoever the actual vendor may be. Overall however, money will be made.

On a good month I spend $1,000 - $2,000 through Amazon, (with only occasional returns). I do this because it is infinitely easier than messing with individual vendors, and I know I can make returns no questions asked, without a pain in the arse.

These losses average out as well as reduced from their tax bill.

One of those “net gain” considerations.

Big fan on your presentation on binary search that amortised multiple concurrent searches.

I did several variations on binary search and always compared against the best one. [0] From what I remember, some variations were compiled to a branchless implementation and some were compiled to implementations that used a branch. I had many passes of analysis by pasting into godbolt with identical compilers and flags. Power of 2 binary search did better on small arrays iirc, but are the first to hit conflict misses. For larger arrays, I believe the branchy search algorithms start to do better since half their branches get predicted correctly.

I haven't previously looked at ITP, and I would need to study further to get a more clear idea on what its aiming for. Some hybrid methods, unlike ITP require additional memory accesses, but I don't think this does, just compute. On the other hand, since at a billion elements you're looking at roughly 3 interpolations or 30 bisections, there's a pretty narrow window of opportunity here, and in the batch case, there are indices to contend with. I'm on the BQN discord if you wanted a different form of communication.

I don't believe you want to be enlightened by me. I suggest you try to live for a while in a country that calls itself a socialist country and then move for a while to a country which calls it self a free market capitalist country with strong social safety net.

I’m in the same boat, although it hasn’t happened with any financial transactions yet. I get numerous emails that appear to be genuine - my (non-existent) Subaru is apparently constantly in need of service, and I supposedly work for a school in a different country.

I eventually had to register for Instagram just to stop one person from constantly signing up with my email address.

It boggles the mind though, because I can’t recall an instance in which I’ve ever mistyped or forgotten my own email address. How are people getting their email address wrong so often?
You're correct and I want to tell other readers that PayPal/Square are regulated by the CFPB and the CFPB is a very useful way for a regular person without a lawyer to fight back when something goes wrong.
This was interesting to me as I sometimes wondered hth they came up with the name:

> At the time, graphics cards were known by two letters, and Priem liked the sound of “NV.” Envy. They called their startup Nvision, which wasn’t a real word and didn’t hint at what they would do. It was perfect. [...] The only problem was that several companies already had similar names, including one that made environmentally friendly toilet paper. Priem reached for his Latin dictionary and found the word for envy. Invidia. He dropped the first letter [...]
I'll say. There's been a lot of public debate around this but in the end, nothing changed and people got tired of the topic so here we are

Well, two engineers and one mathematician IIRC.

I don't expect any single article to cover all the details of a company that just passed it's 30th year. And even then, they're missing bits of lore, like the CEO playing ping pong as a teenager (see https://engineering.stanford.edu/news/jen-hsun-huang-nvidia-...).

A world where everyone takes pride in what they do. Where they realize their work is for a better good, a better world.

Where everyone contributes, and adds to creating a better society for the young, and the old. For all.

I'm assuming dev teams that are responsible for deploying, observing, and maintaining microservices (which obviates the discussion about shared services). For cloud the physical servers/infrastructure is managed by AWS/GCP/Azure; for on-prem k8s the infrastructure team (what older devs used to call "sysadmins") provide the hardware onto which to deploy our convoluted microservices.

For example, more proper content in the original article:

> Machines act far more rapidly than human beings [...] even when machines do not in any way transcend man's intelligence, they very well may, and often do, transcend man in the performance of tasks. An intelligent understanding of their mode of performance may be delayed until long after the task which they have been set has been completed. This means that though machines are theoretically subject to human criticism, such criticism may be ineffective until long after it is relevant

> In determining policy in chess there are several different levels of consideration which correspond in a certain way to the different logical types of Bertrand Russell. There is the level of tactics, the level of strategy, the level of the general considerations which should have been weighed in determining this strategy, the level in which the length of the relevant past - the past within which these considerations may be valid - is taken into account, and so on. Each new level demands a study of a much larger past than the previous one [...] The programming of such a learning machine would have to be based on some sort of war game, just as commanders and staff officials now learn an important part of the art of strategy in a similar manner. Here, however, if the rules for victory in a war game do not correspond to what we actually wish for our country, it is more than likely that such a machine may produce a policy which would win a nominal victory on points at the cost of every interest we have at heart, even that of national survival

> Complete subservience and complete intelligence do not go together. How often in ancient times the clever Greek philosopher slave of a less intelligent Roman slaveholder must have dominated the actions of his master rather than obeyed his wishes! Similarly, if the machines become more and more efficient and operate at a higher and higher psychological level...

> Disastrous results are to be expected not merely in the world of fairy tales [ - the "Sorcerer's Apprentice etc. - ] but in the real world wherever two agencies essentially foreign to each other are coupled in the attempt to achieve a common purpose. If the communication between these two agencies as to the nature of this purpose is incomplete, it must only be expected that the results of this cooperation will be unsatisfactory. If we use, to achieve our purposes, a mechanical agency with whose operation we cannot efficiently interfere once we have started it, because the action is so fast and irrevocable that we have not the data to intervene before the action is complete, then we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose which we really desire and not merely a colorful imitation of it

> [Instead of rushing] ahead to employ the new powers for action which are opened up to us ... we must always exert the full strength of our imagination to examine where the full use of our new modalities may lead us
Not the same as govt failure, but possibly govt ineffectiveness. If all the govt did was warn, we may not have the mental bandwidth to process all that into rational actions. We rely on on institutions to act on our behalf to overcome this limitation. The question is really about where the risk threshold is that transitions their role from warning to regulating.

You only need one hole. A newly introduced vulnerability compromises the system as soon as one package updates. A fixed dependency only works when every single program is updated.
To second the discussion everyone has about utilizing netcat instead I also want to point out that there is a tool on pretty much every linux machine ever that can perform netcat for SSL: `openssl s_client`. Ive used it on multiple occasions for toying with the HTTPS protocol and all of the features that only enable themselves when using a secure connection. It does just what netcat does, but initiates a secure SSL tunnel first.

Though support in that space is very patchy as well and maybe going nowhere. In any case, it serves as an example that DNSSEC can be built upon, even if the new ideas don't necessarily make it.
The reason a wider audience doesn't come here is that this site is called "Hacker News", it's attached to a subdomain of a Silicon Valley startup incubator most people have never heard of, only a few people ever discuss it outside this forum, and most of those people are complaining about it when they do.

The audience here has definitely grown over the years, but like any niche subreddit the reason the unwashed masses don't flock here is simply because they don't know about this place, and if they did, they wouldn't care, or they would be turned away by its reputation.

And TBH the way people here sometimes fetishize this forum's layout is kind of creepy.
It's been said many times here before, but Woz's "annus mirabilis" from March 1975 to April 1977 when at just 26yo, he designed, implemented and launched the hardware, kernel, sound and color output as well as a BASIC interpreter (and much more) for the Apple I and II is one of history's greatest technological achievements. It was a tour de force of talent which is astounding to this day.

And Ben Eater has taught me more about how computer hardware and software work at the lowest level than any other resource I've come across in my 25 years in the tech industry. Truly inspiring.

When I worked front desk, it was made known that I was indispensable. We had a storm with law enforcement urging folks to stay home, and I took two buses then slogged through a flood to get into work. I caught a cold, and my supervisor said to come in unless I was running a fever, and I'd need a doctor's note for more. When I announced I had bed bugs, they were OK with an open-ended leave though!

Now a doctor's note seems to be a reasonable ask, but have you ever tried to get one? Start with limited transportation and insurance, then get into the doctor's office and ask. I think I've made 3-4 requests and at least two, I was refused any excuse. I got 24 hours off in another case. Your mileage may vary: "I work at a buffet and my typhoid may be unwelcome" could be a compelling case. But you still took two buses and showed up at the doctor's office.

Don't even think about a telemed alternative. They'll render their letter worthless with disclaimers, because the HCP didn't meet or examine you in any meaningful way.

Well... https://xkcd.com/552/
It’s because no-one who runs a social network site actually understands how or why it works.

I worked at one of the larger UK social networks and people there were terrified to make changes in case it suddenly stopped working.

From what I’ve heard the old Twitter management didn’t understand why it worked and were therefore very conservative with making changes. Mind you, the new management also doesn’t understand why it worked but are quick to make changes, and we’ve all seen how well that’s going.
