Nowadays we have much better tech for rewarming frozen animals.
Yes, and quite limited. The MiSTer hardware, and other similar platforms are good for emulating ancient video game processors and running 8-bit style video games. This is a fun thing to do I guess if you like that. Modern high performance FPGA's, meaning AMD/Xilinx since that is the only option, can handle prototyping modern CPU's, including RISC-V, as soft processors. This is great for R&D, but FPGA's have hardware ARM cores built in, specifically because they are much more efficient and have existing ecosystems. There are other options for hardware RISC-V CPUs, but not really a SoC style FPGA+RISC-V combination. that I am aware of.

How could it possibly be better to listen to some people talking thus distracting you while you're reading?
Any design which removes friction in an application gets my blessing. Having to long press and confirm or approve some benign action is super frustrating. Is accidentally joining a call really that bad?

Does it though? With the sheer volume of creatives nowadays, combined with industry that seems to love nothing more than whoring itself out for maximum accessibility/customer base/sales, we live in a world where creative people create for the sheer sake and joy of creating. I would like to think that many of these folks would still create should copyright not have existed. Maybe in the old world, where something as simple as literacy was at a premium, but in this new world? I'd bet the lack of copyright would filter out so much mediocrity and lowest-common-denominator filth
Citation please? I don't recall a lot of drug-dealing at Uvalde last year.

i am developing a tool for your semi-retirement, its not there yet but if you are interested in trying it and giving me feedback, i can help you semi-retire sooner :-) . checkout the tool here https://gitimprove.com
This link is about a proposed new eBPF verifier for the Linux kernel that doesn't use signing. As a research project it is not integrated to the kernel, but their plan does not involve trusting user space (instead they suggest doing the heavy lifting of the verification in user space and provide a proof of safety that the kernel checks, which seems sensible to me).

I believe you meant to link https://github.com/microsoft/ebpf-for-windows/ instead (discussed on HN recently) which is an implementation by Microsoft using the above research project that indeed does not follow the suggestion from the authors of the research project to use validation and does require trusting user space.
IRC is so janky it’s almost definitely worth throwing it out at this point:

- No standard authentication system, you have to go private message someone called NickServ.

- No chat history built in unless you run a bouncer.

- A lot of weird legacy features with multiple ways to negotiate them (CAP, PROTOCTL, ISUPPORT, just assuming you can use something, etc.)

- Inscrutable and incompatible user and channel modes across different IRCds.

- No voice chat unless some client is implementing it via some kind of DCC command, and even then no multi-user voice chat and requires direct IP connection.

- Horizontally scaling IRC is… interesting.

If I were to even think about using IRC as a base, I would overhaul a significant amount of the protocol and break compatibility with a lot of existing applications! None of these are insurmountable problems but to fix then you would be inventing a lot of bespoke parts of the protocol!
It’s a felony to mail people things? Not usually, but if you send them a pipe bomb it sure is.
"immigration politics don't affect societies"

If you think that, I'd disagree with you.
I did a quick search, here is one such company. https://evridesllc.com/
Your comment was perfectly clear to me. I'm not sure how it was so misinterpreted.
I think it captures something magical - that computers can do so much while a photon is in transit. This is something that to us is the definition of instantaneous (intuitively - not actually).
You having a short attention span and needing to reply immediately does not make something a gish gallop.
There are a few niche reasons. The entire GNOME/GTk stack benefits greatly in the realm of language interop from being C at its core. This is why it easily has bindings to every language ever.
Yeah, you’re right. Sorry. I missed the edit window and can’t fix it. Someone else has posted the right one.
The general guidance is that you segment your application domain into two categories - Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and Online Analytical Processing (OLAP).

The OLAP data is populated from the OLTP data using queries (snapshot tables, materialized views etc., could be the implementation).

You then add/refresh data into the OLAP tables in a set frequency (for eg: daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly etc.,).

The OLTP system has up-to-date realtime transactions. The OLAP data has snapshots as of a particular date. The OLAP data may be denormalized while the OLTP data is highly normalized. This makes the OLAP data optimized for reads while the OLTP data is optimized for writes.
Well crap....
There's a sizable chunk of people who think that the concept of inheritance for code sharing is causing more harm than good overall. These languages make it hard to do inheritance for exactly that reason.
I'm currently enrolled in the required CSE 351 (https://cs.uw.edu/351) which is largely in C with some assembly as well (and has gdb/make)!
We may have been in the same class together! At the very least, we were part of the major at the same time for sure. I took 303 either 2009 or 2008.
The state should confiscate or remove the vehicle, bill them for storage or for the removal operation and also fine the company and take it to court if something goes wrong because of them.
The quote is in the original UCLA Health article, not the study.

"Research suggests that people who regularly consume microwave popcorn have markedly higher levels of PFAS in their bodies. A study published in 2019 analyzed a decade of data about the eating habits of 10,000 people, which was collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention between 2003 and 2014. Blood samples from the study participants were also collected. The researchers found that people who ate microwave popcorn every day over the course of a year had levels of PFAS that were up to 63% higher than average."

Are you saying he did not burn the original works? If he did, the accusations seem just to me.
Cool! It doesn't feel like there was 351 equivalent when I was enrolled. The contents here were split between OS and the 391-predecessor. 351 looks like a great class!
Is the code for hn.zip available? I'd love to archive this into a pdf so that it's easy to read on a remarkable.
The monopoly is on the legitimate claim to force, and is based on Max Weber.

David Runciman has an excellent explanation of this in the "Talking Politics" podcast which I recommend unreservedly: <https://play.acast.com/s/history-of-ideas/weberonleadership>

(Specific segment occurs ~15 minutes in.)
I'm the author of the libGimbal project linked to there. It's a massive object-oriented C codebase with an entire cross-language type system that was inspired by GTk's GObject, Microsoft COM, and the Objective-C language.

I've studied everything out there on achieving OOP in C, and actually the OP's book reference was my original inspiration. There's a fine art to doing it and a few good codebases are out there that do it well... The entire GNOME stack is based on this kind of stuff.

Anyway let me know if you have any questions. lol.
What about the insane amount of resources poured into saving that group of Thai teenagers trapped in a cave? That was a huge, extremely costly effort.
The First Amendment doesn't mention anything about secrets, that's not what this is about. If I sell you a stolen item, and you know it is stolen, you're guilty of a crime. If you later try to sell or move those goods, that's a more severe crime, fencing. In this case the reporter is obtaining "stolen" information and passing it along, it's exactly the "fencing" of information.

I'm aware this practice has been going on for decades, people leaking private and/or classified information, often illegally. But it's like money laundering, just "info" laundering through an "unnamed source," and it feels pretty sleazy.

No, it isn't?

One is mostly a list of examples of apps that have integrated; the other has a table of contents for the developer guide.

Have you tried reading past the first couple of paragraphs?
correct.It can only help in analyzing jira and surfacing what could be important, human review would still be required. It can't do anything if people are not responding to communication tasks.
Depends on your priorities. There is some recent evidence that silicone leaches chemicals into food, but if that's not important to you, then sure, microwave it.
> The State can pass a law that gives immunity to anyone who breaks into a misbehaving unmanned autonomous car in order to disable the autonomy and take control of it

What do you do with vehicles without human controls? Mandate human controls?
Most old engineers I’ve worked with are terrible and many younger ones are way more talented.
> Car companies are in the business of selling whatever makes shareholders the most money, and you can't legislature away bad decisions.

You can ”legislature away” socially bad decisions, at least at scale, by sufficiently shifting incentives. You can also “legislature them in” the same way.

E.g., you can create a light truck loophole in safety and economy regulations nominally intended, but not carefully bounded, to exempt vehicles with commercial use, and thereby incentivize manufacturers to expend enormous resources on propaganda to create demand for a new class of personal vehicles that fit into that loophole, shifting the market so that even after the loopholes don’t work the same way, the demand remains.
One more reason not to eat microwave popcorn: at least here in Australia, the prepackaged oil is invariably bottom-of-the-barrel palm oil, and there's lots of it in there.

Right now the fastest RISC-V SoC available is the TH1520, similar to a Pi 4. Sipeed are selling the Lichee Pi 4A for $119 with 8 GB RAM and 16 GB eMMC (cheaper and more expensive configurations are coming soon). They are planning a laptop to take the same Lichee Module 4A.

If Intel starts selling the "Horse Creek" SoC on the open market then that will be more like RK3588 class -- the best you can get on an Arm SBC right now.

The next couple of years are going to see probably 50% faster RISC-V SoCs every six months on average.
it makes me happy that every time i get into my truck, someone like you gets upset.
Of course it depends on those running the server and moderating, but most of the larger Discord "servers" I've joined have extensive information as pinned messages.

I did grow up with PHP forums, but they feel a bit clunky now. I'm sure a well-made one with a more modern stack and new features could be superior to Discord for text discussion though.

This. The entire GNOME stack is based on a steroided-out C-based OO type system in the same vein as the OP's PDF... and it's actually how it gets bindings to every language ever so easily...

Anyway, I was sent down a rabbit hole of wanting to do object-oriented C for a language independent core as well, starting off with buying the physical copy of this PDF, because I liked it so much...

I have to say GStreamer is probably the absolute best, most ambitious, shining example of such a type system, as it's already built upon GObject, fixes a lot of its shortcomings, and just really takes the whole thing to the next level with a complex, highly OO architecture. Fantastic reference and inspiration for this kind of stuff.
But that's what a welfare state is for, isn't it? To act as a kind of collective insurance, paid into by everyone, that mitigates these sorts of disasters. You've just lost your job? Here is some money for the time being to tide you over, and support for finding a new job. You've just had a health emergency? Here's sick pay from work, and the potential for support if this is a long term issue that prevents you from working (and the healthcare is already covered). Your house was destroyed in a freak accident? Here's temporary accommodation, and a bunch of organisations who will try and stop it happening next time.

Fwiw, this is all pretty idealised, and in practice a lot of these institutions can break down, or don't provide as much support as they should, or whatever else. I agree that insurance is really valuable in a lot of these cases, and you should get it if you can.

But I think there's generally a problem if these sorts of benefits are only available to those whose parents are rich enough to provide that safety net.
My silicone popcorn maker works great in a regular household size microwave. Not so good in a small microwave like you get in a cheap hotel or RV.
That's ridiculous though, either it is "top secret" or it isn't. There shouldn't be some arbitrary sliding scale of what's ok to reveal and what's not.
The government forms policy around capital [0]. Only when popular opinion “aligns” with capital does it succeed. This is the same everywhere, just to varying degrees. Either way, civilization as we know it is wholly reliant on fossil fuels so the majority will never agree to the degree of sacrifices required to prevent disaster.

We’re ultimately doomed to “bandaid the broken arm” until ecosystems collapse and we have no choice; forcing everyone still alive to suffer significantly worse consequences as a result.

> They say people can “turn off all data transmission on their vehicle.” To do this, you can decline consent for connected services on its privacy hub or contact Toyota customer service.

Right. I bet $100 it turns out they "accidentally" send data anyway.
This is HN. People here will defend "lean startups" to the grave, as long as it's not their own grave.
> The first commercial airline was a man with a plane,

The Florida Man you linked was the pilot for two other men [1], the first commercial air service was Delag operating Zepplin airships .. followed by Aero Rt in Hungary .. then followed by [1] in Florida.

I can't (right now at least) determine if Aero Rt was operating airships or airplanes ... so you may or may not be correct wrt planes at least.

Examples of companies besides Red Hat that have also been burning huge amounts of good will lately indeed come to mind easily: Activision Blizzard, Reddit, Netflix, …
It's really no different. Take a pot, toss in a handful of popcorn with some oil. Turn on stove for a couple of minutes until pops subside. Sprinkle with salt. Done.

I never bothered with the butter etc, though maybe I should.
Stuff like that does not age well at all, and they are sacrificing longevity for immediacy. If I search for videos on a certain topic and see the 'youtube face' on the thumbnail my intuitive trust for that video plummets compared to one that looks that looks plain and informative. However someone scrolling through looking for interesting stuff to watch may be more likely to click on something attention grabbing, and people doing that a lot all at once (upon release) accelerates the trend numbers so you get a whole lot of eyeballs at the very beginning.

They are not being honest when they say they have to do it for clicks. They have to do it to monetize attention when it is most important to their brand. After that they have sacrificed any long-term value. This is also why they have to create new content all the time at all costs. It is unsustainable and why youtube creators burn out. I hope they invested their money well before that happens.
To me, 655 million miles means literally nothing to me beyond "really really far." Probably further than the moon I think? Definitely closer than the nearest non-sun star.

7 AU has at least some meaning. Further than the sun. Probably closer than Jupiter if I had to guess? Definitely closer than Pluto. Would take on the order of 100 minutes for light to travel that distance. We could send a space vehicle there in a single-digit number of years.

My brain can't comprehend either number in the context of my morning commute, but at least it can comprehend 7 AU in the context that that number was given. I can't tell you how long it would take to walk that distance, but that doesn't matter since nobody will ever walk that distance. What I am able to do is make inferences about the implications of that distance (assuming no fiction/sci-fi stuff): we could have a conversation with a few back and forth messages over the course of the day, and they aren't getting home any time soon but they probably won't die of old age.

That's the point being made about combining contexts.
Looks like they're using the cannon to make both puffed rice (the first "shot") and popcorn (the second one). Same principle, of course.
Having just started my dishwasher with a rinse aid, I checked on some of the ingredients. All of them slightly toxic w/ little potential to bioaccumulate.

most people want a significant portion of those features but not everyone wants the same set of features. As a result all features as wanted by a significant portion of the customers.

I guess the immortal Bard himself was on tenderhooks to find out this overly subjective ranking of his work.

From the horse's mouth (article of the linked HN post):

> PL/Rust contains a small set of lints to block what the developers have deemed the most egregious "I-Unsound" Rust bugs.
> [...]
> Note that this is done on a best-effort basis, and does not provide a strong level of security — it's not a sandbox, and as such, it's likely that a skilled hostile attacker who is sufficiently motivated could find ways around it (PostgreSQL itself is not a particularly hardened codebase, after all).

They have extra lints to help you avoid what they deem the most common soundness bugs. They make no claims that there is a way to make this approach safe against an attacker.
No, we are not in agreement.

If an employee makes "transphobic comments in public outside of a work context" then upon what grounds does the employer have to terminate him for that? An employer should not be able to terminate an employee for something they do in their private time.

Likewise, GCC should not be able to ban someone for doing something not related to GCC. That GCC's code of conduct allows for that is preposterous.
It's worth adding that they invented the first successful control system for an aircraft. [0] Personally I think that was the single most important step, because it enabled their aircraft (including test gliders) to fly safely.

and that is a much poorer backup camera than the large display in my dash that adjusts for dim lighting and shows a wider angle than I can see by twisting around to look out the back. The backup camera is safer than a back window in this scenario.
This book is an absolute classic. I came from C++20, using concepts and constraints, doing a lot of compile-time metaprogramming and shenanigans, and I set off on a quest to rewrite a lot of my core tech stack in plain ol' C ('17 revision) for language interoperability reasons...

...and I literally almost gave up on being a C programmer because of bashing my head against language limitations... This book completely and totally changed everything and is the reason I completed this very ambitious project (https://github.com/gyrovorbis/libgimbal)... It's not just good for object-oriented C, but also for approaching the C language differently in general. For pushing its boundaries rather than accepting its limitations.

Anyway, this "PDF" was such an inspiration on me as a C programmer that I managed to track down a physical copy on Ebay. lol.
I agree.

I don’t think understanding the speed of light is something that can be considered intuitive by most people.

There is no generally observable way to understand the speed of light, it’s just instant to most people.

So without physics training, people just have no idea.

I always like the comparison of more computing power than it took to put a man on the moon!

Which used to be along the lines of a phone or car had more computing power than NASA in 1969.

But these days it’s probably a toothbrush ;-)

So it’s not as useful anymore.

I also have no idea of what level of computation converts to something practical. A million calculations a second means nothing on its own; what can that do? Draw a picture on the screen? Print a PDF?

So it has to convert to practical understanding.

Still, it’s a nerdy and fun comparison but one that isn’t understandable or relatable to the layperson.
Microwave it in a paper bag or a glass bowl if you like.
