And yet, cops fight in the courts to so it is a-okay to do absolutely nothing when a man who has a restraining order against him kidnaps his kids and then eventually murders them.
So they didn't say they were not harmed, not even in those internal emails (which are pearl-clutching about the optics of the situation). After that, what we have left is an analysis by a third party which has been ripped to shreds:

When Adler says that the report is "carefully worded", what he means is that it is designed to mislead, and he's right.

I don't understand. Are you saying you want an aggregator that does 50/50 Ukrainian and russian tweets?

>You sound angry, resentful even.

Taxes and wealth transfers are something that a reasonable person can be angry or even resentful of.

If someone went into your house and robbed you, you might be angry. You have bills, dreams, and children to care for. A lot of people would even want to kill the thief.

These policies have the same effect, but you are powerless to defend yourself.
I feel like I'm missing something from the examples. If the images are symmetrical why can't you just transpose the coordinates from the missing pixels and grab them from the symmetrical side?

EDIT: the GitHub page has an actual example. You see three input/output pairs to learn the rule, which you then apply to a fourth input. So the task is slightly different on each test case.

Hey, thanks. Yeah, I agree with you. That's an oversight on my end. I'll tell you here though.

I'm just using go routines and channels to talk between them and then a giant mutex for locking. That's basically it. So, as new data comes in, it builds aggregates (tick based candlesticks) as needed, this then triggers the the BUY logic loop on that new data, if something is detected, that triggers a IB API order. It is dead simple and nothing complex in here. I've had upwards of 100 positions being tracked at anyone time and seems to just work. So, I haven't messed around with complex async logic too much.

I'm actually just hard coding the parameters right into the BUY loop. This probably sounds crazy but for a small setup like this they don't change that much. So, I can run some trades, tweak things, restart, and then test some more. I imagine if you were doing that in an enterprise setting you've have some formal language and hot loading and stuff. But, for me hard coding seems to work well enough.

> This version of the Internet is starting to suck. :(

Totally! The internet was better before pay walls / auth walls.

I get why we're here today, and I get that the last phase was just about acquiring an audience, and getting people hooked, and now this part of getting everyone to pay was always the plan, but this part really does suck.

Just feels like all the services lined up to start shitting on users at the same time. Netflix, YouTube, Reddit, Twitter, NYT (and all the newspapers really)... you can't watch Amazon Prime without having 300 "buy now" buttons in your face.

This phase of capitalism sucks.
1. Upper Class / rich people would be generally more affected, as they rely on a lot more nice-to-haves like pools, cars, and air-cons. I'm middle class and I only just got these things, I can very easily do without them, like I had in the past.

2. Rich people generally don't get affected by much, because they have money to compensate and make things better for them.

It sounds like you're gonna want to drag down the upper class as well so they will have shared misery.
The only way is a truly decentralized system, but that’ll never happen. As long as someone has to pay to host someone else’s content, we run into problems.

I would be interested to know what percent of victims were busted in by a SWAT team vs recieved a knock on the door. Not trying to minimize the issue as I would prefer if that number was zero, but I am curious of the scale.
Around the time of the $20K bubble, I asked a convenience store clerk if anyone actually used the Bitcoin ATM they featured. He said there were 2 distinct groups: Rich-looking, post-middle-aged dudes with fancy cars and homeless people.

The homeless used it because the banks refused to service them and sleeping on the street with cash in your socks is dangerous. That made the volatility and fees involved in cycling dollars in and out of a Bitcoin ATM look like great deal relative to their lack of options before.
hurl is great, glad to see it's being improved on. I wrote a small wrapper around it a while back to be able to re-use some auth stuff in different requests, but a simple "include <file.hurl>" would be an awesome addition in a future release.

Agreed. Start throwing the swatters in prison for 10 year terms and you’ll see a change in behavior quickly.
Your dismissals seem to be very biased and you’re not allowing the possibility of being wrong.

As a practitioner who worked on the systems you’re citing I can tell you’re wrong on many fronts.

As far as costs are concerned, you’re not answering the most relevant question that applies to most users of this forum: costs to retail traders, and are only tackling the institutional side of things. Nobody from retail concerns themselves with costs of intermediation because those costs are irrelevant to retail. Not at the order volumes that don’t even incur slippage.

Plus, fees are only part of the game. I can give you an NBBO improvement now to be compliant with the regulation, but I am not guaranteeing anything in terms of price in the next second. See where this is going?

Edit: by the way, what you’re repeating is what I jokingly call a “party line”. Especially if you look at the hard cold data. For example people often cite narrower spreads etc. but even with Interactive Brokers you can get MPID displayed on the NMS aggregated full depth order book and see who quotes how much and at what levels and the spreads don’t add up to the half of the myths people keep repeating. It’s easy to hide the real numbers in the _averages_ and various other statistics though.
> "Given the student loan relief plan was aimed at this customer cohort, any additional fixed monthly costs will result in additional financial pressure."

The political claim is that the loan relief plan was aimed at "middle to lower income consumers". The reality is that its benefits would have been mostly concentrated in middle to upper income households. Student debt isn't actually a big problem at the low end of the income scale. It's mostly an upper middle class problem.

As usual, none of this is evenly distributed. I would say this is yet another setback for expensive cities like San Francisco and New York in the post-pandemic period, as there are lots of highly-educated people in those cities who will have to figure out how to pay for both their student loans and their rent, and lots of them will have to decide the answer is to move somewhere cheaper. But this is still a pretty small cohort, relative to the entire population of the country.
More concise than my previous reply: that’s just moving the same outcome around in time. If a fully runtime-only import attribute would result in inlining a static-at-build-time value where its export is called, this is just inlining it sooner. That seems fine to me unless it doesn’t fit the import attribute use case. In which case… don’t voluntarily use it?

Not overpopulation, maybe I was not clear enough. We would be fine if we didn't destroy, pollute and consume as much.

Yes, given few million years. Humans and animals we know may not be.

This internet started to suck a long time ago, but today was a red letter day.

Reddit's been circling the drain for years, but today is the day it truly crossed a line for millions of people at once (They killed Apollo and RIF).

Twitter's been getting rapidly worse since Musk bought it, but this is another red line.

We're not even allowed to talk about the influence of bots and astroturfers here. A popular post today was flagged within an hour, just for pointing out that a site claims to sell upvotes on HN.

I don't like it when the tech giants get in sync like this...
I believe the parents point is that Australia is lagging behind other countries in regards to legalisation of marijuana. So it’s surprising to see Australia leading the charge with psychedelics.
> The correct solution is to come up with some kind of legal regime that's actually designed for software

Sure, I agree with that. You told me to revise my expectations for something much less unrealistic than that, though. But let's work toward it anyway. In the meantime, let's extend copyright protection to programmers and stop shaming them for accepting it.

> Mathematical and logical formulas also aren't subject to copyright

But mathematical journal paper submissions are! This is not a counter-argument. My point is that code is more than just its function. Code is written for humans, not for computers. Let me ask you this: if your code doesn't compile, is it really a sequence of instructions? No, it's not! It's still copyrightable, though.

> {Outrageous statement} ... "that's outrageous!" ... what's outrageous about {entirely different, much softer statement}!?

This is boring.
Yes, that is exactly it. Nintendo Switch and Valve Stream deck (and even the old steam controllers) have this functionality. In the case of the Steamdeck, there are sensors in the joysticks to know if your finger is present to then allow mapping to enable/disable gyro aiming as well. Making it easier to reset the devices position in space without also aiming.
People do drugs. It's just becoming less taboo to talk about it. Putting humans under the influence of daily booze and speed in charge of the biggest and most populated ships that steer our society.. yeah. We can see the results. It's not new though. It's part of how we got here. I know the article isn't in judgement or is but walks a linguistic line that's razor thin to technically not be directly judgmental. They do frame the drugs like they are illegal when probably they are prescribed. It's reporting the fact that execs are comfortable disclosing and maybe the drug specifics are changing a bit. Not the booze and speed, but the addition of ubiquitous ketamine or LSD or whatever, but judgement of drug users by puritans is so fucking counter productive. I really appreciate those in those positions who are willing to talk about it even though they are only doing the disclosure for "I work so hard and am under so much stress that I'm high as fuck all the time" clout/flex. We have such a skewed understanding of what drugs are and what they do, I think it's a net good that they are self reporting.

Your onboarding isn't great. First thing I see on your website is a "Get Started" button. Sounds good, I click it expecting examples and eventually a registration form. But it's direct to create an account. Okay fair enough, but I still don't know what your product even is by that point. So I go back and read further your home page. Still unclear what your product is.

So essentially you're providing some kind of linktree alternative with some social integration plus a touch of patreon? That's kind of cool, a live business card in a way.

I suppose I can see how that might be considered risky business (you might end up linking/hosting undesirable content).
This [Symbol.dispose]() stuff is not intuitive to me. What are the brackets for? Is this an object property? Seems like a bad analogue to Swift’s defer and deinit keywords/methods.
That's a good question. How did they get over 1000 "director level" people to participate? That's not a group that's likely to opt in to some survey, or even be reachable by cold calls.

> Do you want to have signed integer overflow not be undefined behavior? Sorry, you can't do that in C. Do you want to support SIMD vector types? Oops, no support in C. Underaligned memory accesses? Packed structures? Support for handling unwind structures? Coroutines?

You can get those things with most C compilers via compiler flags or other extensions.

You can handle unwinding by targeting C++ instead of C, or doing the unwinding in a totally custom way. The last JVM I wrote had a C backend that did unwinding. It worked with any C compiler. You wouldn’t want to use llvm’s unwinding for the unwinding of most higher level languages anyway.

Coroutines can be lowered to C. Most coroutines in higher level languages work best when lowered to C-like functions that save/restore state as needed. Heck, JSC’s coroutines just lower to JSC’s internal notion of a regular function.

> there are still a few LLVM instructions and intrinsics that just don't exist in C (chief among them is invoke, which is used to implement C++ exception handling).

Right so if you’re implementing C++ then you probably want to compile to llvm not C. But if you have exception semantics that are sufficiently not like C++ then you’re better off handling them at a higher level and lowering to something that doesn’t rely on invoke. You can do that in C.

More details: C++ exceptions and llvm invoke are optimized very aggressively for the case that no exceptions are thrown. If you compile Java, where some programs use exceptions for control flow, you’ll want an implementation that is less aggressively optimized for not throwing. And then if you do that then C is fine.
Mileage may vary, but the only times I really enjoy my job are when I get to really muck around with spreadsheets and handy little scripts. Most of the rest of it is just endlessly frustrating. It's possible I'm wrong, but I think my life satisfaction would be a lot higher if I could do that fill time and get paid.
Aye, I agree this sounds like a strange and ill-fitting implementation. And it bums me out, because the more LLMs are used incorrectly, the harder it is to get people to use them at all.
Strong agreement. What we have right now is a lot of people doing light glue code and pretending it is engineering.
I'm almost certain it's a 4chan "greentext" originally, yes.

It's from the time around the introduction of the Xbox One, which, as one of many policies for the console that were unpopular and ultimately rolled back before release, was going to require the Kinect camera to be plugged in for the console to function.

By this time there was already a well-known Black Mirror episode out involving computer vision tracking to ensure people really watched ads, so these ideas were floating around in the culture. As well as Sony's "say McDonald's to end the ad" patent surfacing around that time.

The xkcd comics you link to would have been quite a few years earlier... the reference to Sony then probably more for the controversy with the rootkit on their CDs, as well as their efforts to lock down Blu-ray discs.
That is one thing I'm somewhat disappointed with on the ROG ally. It's both mooshy and round enough that a downright vs a down is a very small input difference, which doesn't feel physically different to perform. The Xbox elite controllers have one of my favorite dpads, colicky and you can choose + or rounded + via insert.

It's quite a statement. You're almost saying capitalism and efficient markets are pointless. Maybe they are, but I think it's nothing like crypto.

In the old days before HFT, you weren't sure you'd get the best price. You'd have to rely on a broker to make sure that happens, but as a retail trader you generally got a worse price/out of date price.

Nowadays with HFT you can get pretty much the best price anywhere. Those <1ms HFT traders make that happen. It's the efficient market hypothesis in effect, made possible by HFT.

Now is it pointless to shave off even more ns in the all out war to grab a piece of the order flow? For retail and institutional investors, at a certain point, yes it's completely pointless.

But it's also just pure capitalism at work. HFT firms compete against each other, and the competition is about speed to provide the best price and volume. If you try to regulate with something like enforced delays, then what do you compete on instead?
I mean if you didn't have something like LLVM you couldn't achieve anything in C so it's a bit of a nonsense question.

But if you're asking the advantage of targeting LLVM directly as opposed to targeting C then the answer is that you don't have to implement everything in terms of C's semantics, compilation model, and memory model. While you probably can the question is should you, and what that costs in terms of optimizations left on the table.

Some examples are the strict aliasing model, support for generators out of the box with blockaddr, guaranteed tail call optimization via specialized calling conventions, zero cost exception handling, and so on.

That's not even getting into some of the annoying stuff that you as a language author will probably care about at some point, like relying on glibc.
Yeah, that’s gonna help with ad revenue.
> support SIMD vector types

I think these are supported through intrinsics, for example:

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Vector-Extensions.html

But I suppose they are not considered standard C.

> If such feature interactions matter then your application has bigger problems than a QA department.

QA doesn't exist to check that your crap architecture solves the problem. They're there to be the skeptical person in the chain of custody from developer to production. The old adage "you can't test quality into software" exists for a reason. It's true. And you're right that it's the wrong architecture. But that's dismissing the very real purpose of QA which is to catch these kinds of bad architecture problems by testing for conditions that the dev team possibly didn't consider during development. QA is also there to make sure you're not making any unfounded assumptions about the context the software exists in.

To the extent you actually care about checking all of your assumptions and not just the ones you're cognizant of, QA is very useful.
