We have a blog on Medium. Not very stable platform - it's difficult to understand, how to grow a society there, how to become popular. But 1 thing we are sure about - it's regularity. You should write every month to be seen once. That's the only reason that we have more than 100 folowers https://medium.com/@dev.family
Only if you're sure 1 -> 0 is not detectably different from 0 -> 0.

There's almost certainly secure ways to delete. But not worth it for a five year old drive that may have had sensitive information on it.
Of course they say that, they make a percentage on the money you invest with them. But it feels like a really obvious piece of any risk assessment. And your risk tolerance heavily depends on how much you can afford to lose. But I guess that’s the idea. You never bet more than you can afford to lose (stocks are gambling, idc if anyone disagrees). So it’s hard for a lot of people to consider entering right now when they’re sure they have very little they can afford to lose, and the probably of total loss seems exponentially higher now than two years ago, and it’ll likely be exponentially lower in a few years. OTOH, you might be wrong, and you might miss the best opportunity of your life.
The 12-tone system captures most small natural number ratios and, as such, covers most non-western note systems as well (allowing for temperament differences).
It's safe to say that less than 0.1% of all music and all composers or performers ever used anything else, and they wouldn't be using synthesizers for that task.
Create loads of value. Capture some, too
As some with ~120 AHI (> 30 is considered severe) I often go camping with a battery. I can only do long stays at places with a charging station. Also I've found that hammock camping helps a lot since position affects how bad it is.

Edit I was measured 120 AHI in the lab (hooked up with a ton of sensors and monitored by someone in the next room) originally - I suspect it's gone down since then as I've lost weight. But for nearly a year before getting tested I was a walking zombie.
> From a computer science perspective micro kernels make so much sense.

Reality beats theory every day of the week. Communication and isolation is never free.

> But when I compiled the Linux kernel, I was always baking everything into one file. It seemed much more practical to do so.

Whether it has modules or not have no bearing on whether kernel is monolithic or not
A nitpick, but I think you mean “cues”. Unless you’ve uncovered new evidence of octopi forming overly lines and waiting for their turn?
Yeah! Except not all flies are associated with poo. Ha ha ha! :)

This is because they have " goes on to describe their incredible compound eyes, 100 times faster sense data processing versus humans, faster reactions. So cool! :)
To be fair, vaccines can be created in a matter of days now so the benefit of gain of function research to anticipate the virus that will cause the next pandemic is modest at best.

Temper this proposed modest benefit with the potential cost in terms of human adapted viruses being accidentially/intentionally released in the wild given the vagaries of both biolab security protocols in the labs accross the world conducting this kind of research and individual human psychology makes the justification of such research a pretty hard sell.

Or they could just use the models we are using right now and get the same effect, not like the models are going away anywhere
I think the key is for each platform to have consistent rules that allow users to decide if they want to engage. Reddit is an extreme example, where every sub is allowed to make its own rules. Want to delete any content using the letter 'E'? Go for it!
Can't focus? Build a friction tunnel
Seeing the original site design, which is considered "superior" by its users to the new one, makes me feel very out-of-touch with what many others consider good user experience design.

I find the original design hard to use. The post text is very small. There is no max width to the main content, which makes it difficult to keep track of where you are when text spans multiple lines. The links are on the far-side of the page from the posts/comments they relate to, without any horizontal spacing indicators, so it's very difficult to tell what lines up with what.

The only thing I like less in the redesign is that the sidebar sections are intermixed with banner ads, which makes them hard to find and get to. But overall, I found the new design a big improvement to the old one, which judging by the responses to this and the linked post, puts me in a small minority.
It seems to have something like this. I'm in the CloudFlare community Discord and there seem to be some channels which are message boards. Crappy message boards, though. Just like Slack with threads, I haven't seen evidence of a chat platform adding meaningful async communication that doesn't feel tacked-on.
Ukrainian An-124 wouldn't fly there, and Ruzzian An-124 will be impounded if they fly outside.
Yeah but fact a part can crash without bringing rest down doesn't make it non-monolithic.

The fact that driver bug in theory could overwrite any other part of the kernel is what makes it monolithic.
Transactional is funniest shit

All that magic causes weekly questions from people about how does this work or about debugging it

>You can easily test and debug.

As easy as putting breakpoint in actual code?
As always, it depends. Sometimes the design misses the point of the original site and makes it harder to use for the folks already there. These tend to go over badly, since people would often rather leave than learn something completely new (and often less efficient).

But I've also seen examples where the redesign goes well, usually because it maintains the general 'feel' of the original while making it look more modern/easy to use.
I felt that way too, but now that we have GPT bots, I wonder if the only way I can discern humans from GPT is via the use of ever evolving shorthand.

You can try it in the form of a jupyter notebook. I'd much prefer just to use it like a regular language.

I think their strategy makes quite a bit of sense. Superficially Python like, can use Python libraries, fast and safe like Rust, automatically determines where algorithms should run (to some extent).

One thing that comes to mind however, is library performance. I'm assuming it will be ~3X faster than Python (like basic Python code) but if you are coming from Rust or C, this could be an issue.
India's most elite have blindly imported Oxford/Cambridge culture to India for a good century. Doubly, social justice issues have been a major part of Indian political discourse for a good century too. So it's not surprising at all.

What is surprising is how anyone who doesn't use "Pure English" is seen as less than in these circles. Local Indian primary source work is underrated in favor of sweeping generalizations made at invited talks in western universities.

It is changing now, but mostly because the new 'tech money' is questioning the elite status of the previous class and soft replacing them.
Of course reddit wasn't that vibrant back in the day.

I know of a couple of others, but it's hard to say they're viable exactly, as their user numbers seem pretty small--hubski and tildes.
Are they really Hotel owners, or merely Hotel lease owners?
If you have already generated a second key, which you are not gonna use as a key, then just use that one instead of any redaction.
I find it interesting that they’re not developing it in the open yet.

Lattner is an open source fan, I believe it will be open sourced eventually, but maybe the early Swift development was traumatizing. Just a guess.
I don't claim any countries are better. I'm saying an addiction to spending all your time following current events is unhealthy.

> If anyone from reddit corporate is reading this, understand that you’re playing with fire here. This week is critical to saving your platform.

They understand. They know, but it seems they're not budging. And it's because of money; if Reddit goes public, they and all investors will instantly become multi-millionaires; if the site then goes to shit, they won't care anymore.

But they pulled this too early, and it'll affect the IPO, even whether it'll go through or not.
Nice, a technical-content-free comment attempting to distract from and diminish the message. Not only that, it is dead wrong (at least to anyone who actually reads any of the graphs).

The graphs themselves do an excellent job of providing the relevant context — they show decades of previous context, with the current year highlighted. The context of the past decades is literally the point of how the graphs were designed. The titles on the graphs also further describe the context - "..temperature anomaly", "...ice extent anomaly".

The consequences of burning eons worth of stored hydrocarbons in a few decades are upon us. But attitudes like this are literally part of the problem.
Surely there is a way of checking api calls made by an app and blocking those?

I have never looked into this mind
That's exactly the standard playbook. The acquisition happens, and there is a lot of talk sbout how important it is to keep everything the same, no one getting fired, no real changes except for a few different people to report to. Basically, no one gets fired in the first year while the new owners figure out what's actually going on with their purchase.

After the first year is when people get fired.
reddit is an order or magnitude smaller so in actually surprised the group numbers are so close which only proves the communities is a core feature of reddit
> These conspiracy theories lead to a marked rise in violent attacks on anyone of Asian descent in the US,

It should be noted that the statistics don't support the media narrative and there was no wave of white supremacist attacks on Asians.

I know you didn't mean exactly 20 year old languages but felt the itch to look it up - 2003 was a year of JVM languages[1]. Groovy and Scala are dated 2003. (Clojure came a bit later, in 2007)

> In the words of Bukowski, "Don't do it unless it comes out of your soul like a rocket,"

Given that Bukowski said that about writing, it applies more to writing documentation, than to holding meetings. So exactly the other way around than presented in this article.
We have Linux though, and mountains of non-GNU projects.

It's not really about "proprietary vs. free software", it whether the FSF and GNU are still a driving force for Free Software. And to me this seems ... not really? They're still trying to create their anno-1985 Unix replacement. That's great and all, but also not really driving anything forward.
QEMU images? I don’t know, maybe I am oldschool myself but I immediately found my way around.

It’s a big, hairy project that is not easily reduced to a simple feature list. Also consider the audience. This project is not meant to attract us hipsters.

I found your conclusion a bit unfounded.
For an actual HDD, maybe that would work. For any solid state drive, it would definitely not work. SSDs and similar spread writes across pools of blocks for 'endurance', so a 1TB drive might actually have 2TB worth of flash on it.
/dev/urandom is far better option. One problem is that writing a full drive of data can take long time vs chucking it into shredder. For example this[1] 22TB drive can do 260MB/s, meaning that doing one full disk write pass would take almost 24h.

Despite rather intense searching the closest strain to C19 in the wild split ca 50 years ago. Please tell how do you introduce this famous mutation not into any of the commonly found covid viruses but create C19 differing from these.

Who in a right mind (just leaving for a moment how) would do that? As: create a separate strain of coronavirus just to introduce one specific mutation.
Seems like a submarine. http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html
Fair point.

Who should replace them?

UK? France? Sweden? Germany? Türkiye? Kenya? Argentina? Israel? Iran? China?

Every nation has its own agenda.

I do find it interesting that everyone was happy to throw mud at the first part, but completely ignored this part:

> So whatever replaces it as a main actor, should be fairly representative of all the stakeholders.

Consensus is really, really difficult. It’s easy to criticize, but difficult to find common interests.
Falsehoods like this spreading through populations that consider themselves technically literate is one reason the NIST standard requires absolute destruction.

There are methods available that will allow recovery of second, third or even fourth generation data to be recovered from magnetic disks. Writing /dev/zero "over" an SSD won't necessarily accomplish what you expect either.
Meh.

Part of the problem with American righties and lefties is that they tend to make stuff up. The comment you're responding to is very likely an example of that, but in its own way it illustrates how they insert their talking points into even HN threads created to discuss how to get away from their talking points.

Viewed from that perspective, it's insidious even if it is completely fabricated.
Industry leaders complaining the lack of productivity of remote work is like a joke. They are the ones who infuse the organization with countless useless administrative tasks, mandatory meetings, and endless disruptions with their push for open offices.

They are the last people I would trust on Earth for productivity advice.
I was listening to the Chris Lattner interview by Lex Fridman the other day, very interesting stuff.

I use Python for application programming, scripting and basic ML, so I think many of the Mojo features are not for me...

On the other hand, I love types and I think they're one of Python's weakest points. I use mypy and native typing but they feel like a weak scaffold compared to a strongly-typed language or even something like TypeScript.

Do you guys think there will be a case for Mojo as a general-purpose programming language "for the rest of us"?
I disagree. I think someone unfamiliar with the field might easily go for the other meaning. Maybe 70/30%
Story of the Song: Surf’s Up by the Beach Boys
This is why I like the "open case design." Your "PC" is just a frame to hang components on, with nothing to enclose it. And the nice thing is these days people care a lot about quiet computers, so you can have an open frame case with three GPUs that is just making a not-unpleasant whooshing sound at full bore.
Is this all I need for great React state management
I know nothing about low-level optimizations, but I love playing with different methods and benchmarks. And did try Mojo through their playground. I found it a bit more complicated than anticipated (well, I did believe it's just like python but much faster...) but also very impressive speed.

It's impossible to say for sure, since you can't run the benchmark on your machine and god knows what's behind the playground. However, I compared my naive implementation to find min of a rolling mean using python with numba, pandas, polars, numpy and mojo version.

Mojo version was faster than polars and numpy, which in turn were faster than pandas and numba.
That's my N=1 of course, and not a reliable benchmark. But still, I find it very impressive.
Yea, unfortunately the conspiracy theorists hijack talking points and social media platforms amplify their bullshit to the extreme.

Meanwhile they ignore all the near misses the US seems to have with anthrax and smallpox being misplaced in US labs every year lol.
Open source and software freedom are relevant, the FSF is not.

In an era of insane surveillance, AI technology, mass corporate insanity, the FSF is still arguing about firmware blobs on hardware vs loaded in by the OS, or advocating for switching from .docx to .odt when the world has moved on from even having document files.
I didn't think of it like that, but you're totally right. And they didn't even let the user know this is what was happening. That's how ashamed they are of the change- not like "hey, user who is used to being logged in, we're trying something new and we hope you like it!" Just... hope they don't notice, or just use the app like a good little piggy?
It's a lot easier to verify the process. It's a lot easier to check that all the drives leaving the building are physically destroyed, than it is to verify that they contain no sensitive data.

The thing that always gets me about the JFK assassination, is after JFK fired Dulles, he was then put in an important position in the Warren Commission and would work out of his home on the investigation, despite no longer working for the agencies.

People shout about "Deep state" stuff all the time but these guys really did have an inordinate amount of power that was not on a leash whatsoever. They do things the President is ignorant about. If the President can be considered not on a need-to-know basis, whatever is happening by that agency is effectively a "deep state" operation, regardless of if you believe there's a vast deep state conspiracy.
It used to be we wanted to work for tech stsrtups so we could wear jeans and hoodies, and now we want to work there so we can be remote. Down with bloated enterprise greed
HURD is does not have a stable release. It's unlikely to even boot on real hardware, which is why they have QEMU images. I don't know what screenshots of a kernel would look like.

Generalising this to GNU and the FSF is daft. Claiming this somehow shows their irrelevance is even more so.
They also sold awards / points / things, which seemed pretty popular for a while at least; I have no idea how much that earns them though.

But there's plenty of avenues they have for generating revenue that doesn't involve shutting down 3rd party clients, e.g. commercial promotions, signal / post / comment boosting, subscriptions for advanced / exclusive features, etc.
I can’t find a date for this paper, there is nothing on the web page or PDF
The website states very clearly, in bold, at the very top:

> Tesla Deaths is a record of Tesla accidents that involved a driver, occupant, cyclist, motorcyclist, or pedestrian death, whether or not the Tesla or its driver were at fault

The FAQ contains the reasoning behind that, which is very simple:

> Q: Why do you include deaths where the Tesla was not at fault?

> NHTSA death statistics cited by Elon Musk do not differentiate between at-fault and not-at-fault. All manufacturers are treated the same way. For the purposes of calculating Tesla fatalities in accordance with NHTSA methodology, we also do not include the many deaths in other vehicles, despite Teslas being at fault in the majority of those cases.

Note that since this is only based on press reports, this is a lower bound on the number of deaths. Probably by a signinficant margin.
This is what I don't like about it. Other then that Even is running things differently and maybe it's not for you, but some people really like it and maybe some more will.

I never start with documentation, but I find it immensely useful. Usually it starts with someone asking about something and you can just link them to the docs without having to talk to them.
That was beautiful. You could also pay to troll.

I recall one person posting a photoshopped picture of a woman who had two sets of eyes, "this picture gives me the creeps every time I see it, what are pictures that unsettle you?" Not much later their avatar had been changed to that exact photo, with text like, "I am so sorry."
It’s commonly known as dogfooding, and it’s a very common (and I’d argue, the correct) strategy. It’s more head scratching IMO for there to be two standards on compiler stability.

It would be nice to have an auto reply script that makes them fill out a Google form with relevant information for you to review later. I don't think this is unreasonable for someone who asks you to put 15min-30min on their calendar.

Sure, I'm just saying that there is some nuance to "a driver crashing crashes the whole kernel".
Interesting product, thank you for your effort, definitely want to give it a try!

For me, thought, setting up a system is not the primary pain point today. FWIW, signing up for a cloud service is not hard.

The problem starts at the ingestion point. I am writing my apps according to 12 factors and running them in docker containers. What I want is an agent companion that will collect logs and metrics from these apps and containers and forward to the system. Datadog and Grafana has that, do OpenObserve?

Also, interesting that in your quickstart tutorial you have a step of unzipping logs file before sending to the system. I would suggest the ability to send them in (g)zipped format, as it is an organic format of keeping logs.
Not true at all. It’s ultimately very complex and device specific, which is why destruction is recommended.
Yes, but I believe things have changed quite a bit once the Three letters Agencies decided to invest heavily in corrupting the press.
There are two components, one is the Cockpit Voice Recorder which can be disabled because it's powered from the main system and records on a 2 hr loop that may need to be preserved if there's some incident that isn't a crash. The other is the Flight Data Recorder which isn't on a circuit breaker and records on a similar loop but is more of a crash system so they just run until there's no power on the plane for some reason.
