> You need an energy storage solution for nuclear too, unless you want to heavily overbuild, which raises it from too expensive to stupid expensive.

No, nuclear lowers baseline you need. If 50% of your energy is produced by nuclear, you just need to build the rest like your country is 50% smaller.
I’ve tried to convince junior researchers to do make this jump in the past and they have not done so. I think its a combination of lack of time and familiarity. A lot of researchers only use jupyter notebooks occasionally between their more time intensive lab work or possibly using similar R tooling instead.
Check out the table of contents.

I did a quick flip through and realized that I'm never going to be doing low level multithreading, so I don't need to deal with OS layer stuff. There were some other ideas too, might be worth flipping to relevant areas.

Heck, if I do end up using it, I'll likely read a summary when I'm dealing with it.

There are some ideas that I havent heard of, which was alright, but again, since my current language(python) handles it and I am used to doing multithreading using those libraries, I don't get a ton of value out of reading the fundamentals. (opportunity cost)
I would absolutely love to read these studies!
Well, as luck would have it, Bulgaria being part of the EU, they must comply with the GDRP regulations.

As they do not, you can report a violation to the data protection authorities:

One could argue that the relatively high compensation for programmers is the main reason so much cool opensource stuff could even get started. A universal income for everyone could, hypothetically, put everyone in a similar position of being able to afford to do "productive" hobbies, vs. working a third minimum wage job.
>Would a three hour film like Doctor Zhivago ever sell 248 million tickets today?

No, partly because the media landscape is much more fragmented with much more choice and partly because streaming services are now the natural destination for serious long-form drama. If you were a screenwriter pitching Doctor Zhivago today, you'd pitch it to Netflix. Nobody goes to the movies to watch a historical epic today, but nobody in the 1960s was binge-watching subtitled foreign drama on TV.
Their premium email service will be $5.99/mo going forward. The equivalent Exchange Online plan is $4.80/mo in year 1 (or $4 with 12mo commitment), then additional $12/yr for the custom domain i.e. $5.80/mo in year 2 - that's cheaper than Gandi?
I'm not aware that reddit ever presented user level API keys as an option, they'd likely instead base it on Reddit premium tiers tied to the OAuth account. But again, that's not currently a viable option on the table and if users started enmass requesting API keys intended for developers, yes that would get throttled quickly because that's not what they're intended for.

>90% of users is not a meaningless number by any measure. I'd suggest that punishing the average users due to the power use of the outliers is a terrible value proposition.

Developers hold the ability to throttle and/or price based on that.

I am a developer that has built clients and tools around the reddit API. If most apps don't bother to optimize, then that's a choice they can make.
Existential feedback consciousness is happening in every neuron, every neural cluster, every brain region, and finally competing to produce the illusion of waking consciousness.

Some, yet not all are perceptually aware of multiple scopes of awareness competing for coherence (“idea in the back of the mind”, “on the tip of the tongue”, intuition, etc.)

Consciousness is actually so diverse we can train and automate outside of the scope of awareness (reflexive techniques such as learning language, martial arts, setting intentions, etc.)

We often refer to this as “subconscious”, yet this is more truly the “consciousness” we are most interested in.
It's only easy if the items that are iterated over are entirely self contained, and the code in the loop body also does not need (write-)access to any other state that might be shared between threads. Rust has such limitations built into the language, but this is also one of the points that make Rust "difficult" (because you actually need to think first about how you organize your data to be "multi-threading-compatible", and that's the hard part, not adding a parallel for-each to a language.
I do see the "employers could have paid you more if they didn't pay 100% premiums" all the time but has it actually ever been true?

Gandi are so gross. Had an issue 5 years back now where their site/my connection glitched and they double charged me. It was the most confrontational support exchange I've had (even to this day), and in the end had to go the chargeback route and move my domains off their service.

Never quite understood it as the attitude persisted even as my complaint was (apparently) escalated.

The chargeback itself sent them into orbit.

Because it inevitably becomes about the drugs and sex, and not the spirituality.
Wow, unbelievable that it was designed in 2001! It still looks fresh and modern, although maybe a bit too playful so that it appears a bit childish? But only barely.

It appears to have all the basic functionality expected from a modern operating system, I instantly feel right at home although I've never used it.

I find the review terrible though, one of the major changes was the user interface, revolutionary I would say. It's way more important than wether the GUI configuration options are well thought out or not.
Fusion 360 is very much a native app. Qt and all that jazz. Just one that's been nerfed in the name of cloud. Certainly it's trending more towards "cloud based" features over the years. As for Linux support, Fusion was kept around despite never turning a profit because it was the CEO's pet project. To that end I'd expect that not supporting Linux was mostly a business decision. Technically I don't think there's a ton of institutional knowledge around Linux on the product teams.

It's been well known internally that it makes an atrocious amount of RPC calls since the Carl Bass days. If I had to make a guess, I'd say that historically most of what you've seen with slow startup relates to authorization more than anything else. You could probably mitmproxy it if you really wanted to, the last time I checked they weren't doing any certificate pinning. Hell, at one point Little Snitch even wanted to know if I wanted to access a staging server.
I got an email from Gandi earlier today and it was talking about their commitment to providing best tools and blah blah blah. I didn’t bother to read the thing.

But after seeing this headline on HN, I realised that actually that email was probably about a pricing update. Went back to my inbox and sure enough, the subject of the email says pricing update.

Anyway, it seems to be mainly about DNS and email services, etc, none of which I use.

I only use Gandi as registrar for domain names. And then for the DNS I use Cloudflare. For email I use iCloud.
> Glad I renewed for nine years last year.

Given the speed with which Gandi is circling down the drain I won't be surprised if they annul that renewal at some point later on.

> I get using a proper tokenizer and just calling `strings.Split`, and it seems to be remarkably stable for a given model and language (multiply the length of the result of splitting on spaces by 1.55 for OpenAI and 1.7 for Claude, which leaves a tiny safety margin).

One time I suggested this, got downvoted to hell.

To be fair to the downvoters, I quoted OpenAIs 7 tokens per word(on their tutorial page).

Seems incredibly unrealistic in hindsight, but at the time, things were fresh. Also, I think most people wanted something more robust than a linear calculation.
A new Hanami Mastery episode had been released! This time we cover sending emails with Hanami, using hanami-mailer. hanami-mailer is not yet updated to work seemlessly with Hanami 2, but we've decided to integrate it to show the power of providers, which give you a full control over the component loading mechanisms.

But what do You use to send emails in ruby, except action-mailer ?
Their profits exist solely because they exploit and steal from other ordinary people. Most ordinary people will lose far more money to labour or wage theft than they'll ever gain from profits.
You are not understanding how seaweed farms work.

Dry areas are required for logistics and as a safety vault. You need space for storage. Space for wintering. Space for each machine that you need to process the production. And drying algae smell. And if you have a big storm alert, you will need to rush to move a huge volume of stuff, cords and algae safely ASAP to the coast and keep there for several hours. You can't just put this in the closest hotel terrace.

There is a lot of things that a sea farm needs to survive. And there is a huge load of legal issues, because the sea is not a "free for all" space. Is a high skill / high luck and deep pockets activity.

Why could be a big company be interested in this? Well, If you have the money you could culture much higher value products in the same space, right?. I would speculate that is a combination of being able to obtain government aids + real state grab. I can be totally wrong about it, of course.

The drug they typically give to erase your memory is Midazolam.

You can give someone a small dose of Midazolam, they might report feeling a little dizzy, or say they feel like they’ve had a few drinks, but they will have absolutely no recall of the experience, despite interacting like a slightly tipsy “conscious person” - I like how they call it “conscious sedation” - most people end up believing they were unconscious.
Fun fact, not many games model the loss of skills and XP over time, but RimWorld does. Colonists need to actively use the skill in order to not lose XP and the level they already have.
The difference was, back in the good old days, you were making friends with the people who owned and ran the platforms you were on. And they weren't (usually) slurping up all manner of data about you to sell off access to in one form or other.

That is not the case now.

On the other hand, from a parent's perspective, the "good old days" were an absolute nightmare, because nobody was particularly responsible for policing content your kids were being shown (except for, well, you). Whether or not you SHOULD be willing to offload that responsibility set aside as a matter for debate, you for the most part CAN assume that the volume of heinously inappropriate content being foisted upon your unwitting 15 year old is a bit more limited, at least on these big platform sites (aside from some of the more ephemeral content, where it's usually a matter of taking it down only AFTER the kids see it). But you can also usually rest a bit more easily knowing your 15 year old isn't uploading naked pictures of themselves to reddit like they may have been to a vbulletin or phpbb site in the days of yore (though, nothing stops them from going off the beaten path and doing so elsewhere unless you've got that firewall and/or actual monitoring going on).

I guess the point is, there are pros and cons. Personally I approach the kids on the Internet thing with some pretty hefty firewalling and monitoring and would really just love a return to the greater amount of decentralization (and for the love of god, search engines that just find what's out there, and report back based on terms, rather than curate "acceptable" and "promotion worthy" content...but this may be wishing for too much). But others may have different priorities.
3D printing is in the same boat. It seems the whole CAD industry just wants to shoot itself in the foot and push people towards open source tools.

When I was into 3D printing 5 years ago I learnt Fusion 360 and it seemed like one of the better free-for-hobbyist tools, but even then it was buggy on Windows (didn't properly support 4K) and features were slowly being moved behind the premium paywall. SketchUp is also quite popular, but people stick to the old version that can be run offline, as the newer web based versions don't have the same features.

If I were ever to design a keyboard with a thumb cluster, I would separate out ctrl and esc to separate keys. When typing quickly, I occasionally get an esc when I wanted ctrl. I've tried fiddling with the delays, but I've never gotten it to work quite right 100% of the time. I suspect my timing (how long I hold the caps lock button) varies depending on what I'm doing and how fast I'm typing.
For me, not taking my hands off the keyboard (or more specifically, not touching the mouse) is less about speed, and more that it helps me remain focused on what I’m doing.
Or you can just rely on manually approving all of the new accounts. It's not like you need to cater to the bunch of new users that have an inmediate need to post _today_ and just cannot wait 1 week for a mod to approve their initial posts.

Collecting IP address will not reduce the need for manual moderation, nor even reduce bot spam...

Hello reddit, why did you downvote me?
I’ve been using Hotwire, stimulus and bootstrap (tho tailwind would work just as well) to build interactive front ends on top of rails without getting bogged down in over engineering.

Hotwire can be used outside of rails.

And LiveView is a similar framework from the elixir/Pheonix community (and probably now available for other languages).
I think with decomposed Hangul, you can end up with 6 or more bytes per character, due to each part of it being two bytes, and 2-4(?) parts per character.
So instead we would have ridiculous amount of problems with cache and scheduling. I bet most of the time sequential cose would be “faster”, due to the parallel overheads, the cache misses, and the scheduling that obviously can’t fit every loop scenario.

And this is assuming that the code in the loop is thread safe, otherwise you will summon every concurrency bug on the planet.
Where's the childish part? Didn't notice anything.
Emacs Lisp has AOP built in [0], and in this context it is extremely useful. The common use case is advising functions of a third-party library without modifying the library itself (which wouldn't survive e.g. an upgrade). This is a bit atypical, though, in that the end user is a programmer here. A blog post I wrote last year [1] is one example of advising functions sitting pretty deep in the chain of function calls to achieve something useful.

That said, even the manual says [2]:

> advice-add can be useful for altering the behavior of existing calls to an existing function without having to redefine the whole function. However, it can be a source of bugs, since existing callers to the function may assume the old behavior, and work incorrectly when the behavior is changed by advice. Advice can also cause confusion in debugging, if the person doing the debugging does not notice or remember that the function has been modified by advice.

> For these reasons, advice should be reserved for the cases where you cannot modify a function’s behavior in any other way.

> If you scale back the notifications from 1 every 10 seconds to 1 every 5 minutes, it becomes a much more reasonable number with only 288 requests per day per user - which gets into very different numbers when dealing with a subscription.

Except you're still making up fake numbers. He was giving an example, not quoting a dedicated solution.

I even linked to their server code in my previous comment where you can see they do batches of 100 users every 5 seconds. Unless they only have 200 users, then it will not ever be “1 every 10 seconds” like you keep claiming.
Reddit and the Centralized Web
I don't think it is the ads but the algorithmic feed that they manipulate for political ends, rather than making money. TikTok got big by making an algorithmic feed that did not push BS to its users I think.

How is it creating value for the platform? I'm in about 30 Discord servers but they are all private with a small group of friends either playing a common game or connected through something else. I don't think any of them have moderators and I don't even know who the creator/admin is in most.

As I see it we're just leeching off Discord's infrastructure, in contrast to reddit (or HN) where each comment/post adds something to the platform in large.
That’s only safety. It still does not guarantee that performance would improve.
Don’t worry, there’s no conflict there. We don’t ship at my day job either ;)

But really my point was that you can still derive a lot of satisfaction from a project without shipping it.
Discord also has a godawful client that you can't (without breaking the EULA) substitute for another. And even then, the options are pretty limited.

Matrix seems to bring along the features of Discord with the freedom of IRC. But, as usual when freedom is concerned, it does come with a fair amount of responsibility, particularly in the form of setting up and running the server.

The the home button scandal I'm talking about is older than that.

Circa 2010-15, the iphone home button was having more and more problem: https://osxdaily.com/2011/12/22/iphone-home-button-not-worki...

For a while, half the users were just using a software button as a workaround: https://osxdaily.com/2012/07/02/broken-iphone-home-button-as...

It was funny to see everyone with a very expensive phone just moving around this fake button everywhere on their screen because their physical button was not working.

But then people stopped finding it funny.

Because Apple said it was a hardware problem, and said the fix was to buy the next iphone generation.

However, a few weeks later, jailbreak iphone received a patch from the community fixing the home button problem, showing not only that it was a software issue that was easy to fix, but Apple just conned their entire customer base.

Sure but it's not like Dr Zhivago (widely popular book, won the Nobel Prize for Pasternak in 1958) was an unknown project from an unknown director (David Lean, 7 Oscars in 1957 for Kwai, 7 Oscars in 1962 for Lawrence of Arabia) featuring an unknown cast.
Well I can comment with authority on my motivations. I can expand your point further than you made it.

I am posting here because its free for you. I'm posting here to participate in an open forum, I am donating my time to the people here, in conversation -- not to HackerNews itself. Which has my loyalty only insofar as it is the "public space I want to visit".

So if you were to have paid anything for that thread, I wouldnt have started it.

And likewise I have never posted to any internet forum behind a paywall and I find the idea practically and morally suspicious. All the places worth going to are run by those with a passion for them -- it is that passion which they want to share.
The cultural reasons are not relevant, this is simply normal English being used naturally as it has been for centuries.

For example, consider the following. "I saw someone get hit by a bus this morning." "Oh, were they okay afterwards?".

"They" is clearly a singular pronoun here.
From most studies I saw, moderate consumption (<=~3 cups of coffee) has no long term negative health effect.

Could you expand on what you found and what were the specifics?
I am really interested in this topic: hosting and managing forums. I don't want this technology and the kind of interaction between users to totally die so I want to learn to be semi-competent in it. Doing archaeology through old forums it's like treasure hunting, you find awesome posts and comments.

Anyone knows any forum about Forums? Or, better, about it's technical aspects? Or any blog, book, about forums? I would really appreciate any reference. I ask here because is the only community where I had found high quality blogs and off grid communities.

This summer I'll try to build and maintain one because I know a small community of max 2000 people who I know will be engaged in a positive and constructive interaction. I don't want to monetize anything, I think it would be very valuable for people. Maybe I am overconfident but at least I have to try. I think building a restful API is a better approach to detach it from UI, and also include latex syntax on the front end.

Also, do you know any forum like HN but being a real forum, with that I mean, that threads don't have a finite life?

I hope this is not off topic.
