It's not that simple.

The article is specifically complaining about how the design of Rust's async ecosystem forces one to use wasteful Arc<Mutex<T>> etc in places where the data has no reason to move across threads.

Meanwhile, a greenthread system can happily use local state without atomics.

I personally want Tokio and Glommio to have a baby that inherits good parts of both parents.
Thank you for an exhaustive answer!

> The difference is pretty important. Getting this certification does not require that the abstract concept of the Rust language is being specified in any specific way.

Sorry, I was being vague.
I meant the outcome for "us", the users, creating certified software relying on Ferrocene.

Totally on board with that there is a huge difference for certifying Ferrocene itself.

> The opposite, this means you can use Rust in these places. Even though this work does not specify Rust.

Nice, that's what I was hoping for. We are currently in a project creating safety certified software (in C, as are our other code) and are curiously looking at Rust, partly because of this effort.
This is a tweet thread from the CEO, the article is here (but paywalled) https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-18/fervo-ene... and what it shows is something that readers of this site should be very familiar with; technology advances impact adjacent markets "invisibly."

My interest in PDC bits and the advancements in drilling related to how much simpler it would be to add fiber to the metro area by drilling horizontally 500' below street level (essentially no obstructions). The missing link there is lining the drill tube dynamically and going horizontally through water (for example) is not straight forward.
It’s “proof” as in to test. Like “proof reading”. The point being, the real test of how good something is, is to use it (for its intended purpose).

A vaguely similar sentiment to when people say “eating your own dog food” (or words to that effect) to mean testing something by using it themselves. Albeit the pudding proverb doesn’t necessitate the prover to be one’s self like “dog fooding” does.
In a strange twist, I wonder if the puritan attitudes increase the retail 'price' of sex work? Said attitude/laws increase risk, which lowers the number of workers in the market, which increases potential earnings of those willing to participate in the market.
There is exactly zero reason for an app whose only purpose is to be shown on a screen to be Windows or x86 specific. It can be due to obsolete development practices or obscure vendor requirements, but still..

I was suggesting "Just use contactless" for customer accessible payment terminals. Want to use something less secure and more likely to result in fraud? You can hand your card to the cashier or walk inside instead of paying at the pump, just like you do with any non-card payment already.

The EBT, gift card, and lazy small banks would get their act together pretty damn quick, I'd wager.

I think part of the reason why restraint is so valuable is because of the band context. If you listen to a solo guitar piece or piano piece that you like, it might be really complicated, with a million things going on. If you listen to a guitar or piano accompaniment track from a song you like, you might hear simple triads or intervals, played sparsely or with a simple rhythm.
Would you say the same in reverse? Should baseball teams also not discriminate based on athletic ability? Academic excellence requires dedication and commitment as well, perhaps we should reserve a few spots on the team for strong students.
Exactly. Look at New Zealand's low excess death rate by allowing almost the entire population to get vaccinated before infection.
Bill gates was one of the spoiled rich kids. But ignoring that the relationship goes both ways. The legacies want to be surrounded by people who are legitimately smart, high achievers. The smart high achievers want to be able to network with the legacies as they are what gives the institution prestige and make the alumni network valuable. Having only legacies or only meritocratic acceptances would be worse for both groups.
Given the comment was made 16 years ago, I think so.

> This is definitely true, but we can go a step deeper. You have to think about what Harvard's goals are. Maximizing academic success is not very high on the list. The real goals are maximizing career success, donations, and cultural cachet/prestige.

Exactly. Harvard is about being the source of the next generation of elites. IIRC, they're far more likely to admit the captain of the high school football team over an otherwise similar nerd with better grades/test scores, because the captain is demonstrating leadership potential and is more likely to be some next-gen big shot.

Recognizing that something takes effort doesn’t necessarily imply that the activity is not enjoyable or worth pursuing.

I mean, I do see how someone might believe that just because one finds an activity draining they’d strive to avoid it at all costs. But that really doesn’t have to be the case.
scanf() is probably not the right approach to that, but still you can implement a parser for the common INI syntax in about a third of the code with fgets(), strchr()/str(c)spn and bunch of hand-rolled ad-hoc logic.
This is no more wasteful than discarding a prototype, the only possible problem here is putting too much effort into throwaway code.

The rationale for meritocracy is that a limited resource should be allocated to the individual that will make most use of it. Demonstrating that you understand the prerequisites and are studious is a pretty good indicator that you’ll attend class and strive to learn more.

Randomly picking students with zero minimum qualification would be a massive waste of resources.

Randomly picking students above a given objective standard would be okay. Though arguably not as good as given the best of the best first dibs (depends on who you ask!).
Which is the main reason I stopped playing. I can understand why they were removed but the lootboxes in OW1 could be farmed at a quite reasonable pace and beside cosmetics they also dropped a currency used to unlock specific items. Meanwhile I don't even know what that battle pass in Overwatch 2 does, the only thing Blizzard's marketing managed to tell me is that they want my money.
Abusive comments should be flagged. Bad comments should be downvoted. There are lots of comments that are bad because they are not constructive, or are off topic, or are arguing in bad faith. These don't deserve to be flagged. They deserve to be downvoted. And there are lots of comments that are constructive and in good faith, but just reasonable to disagree with. These don't deserve downvotes, they deserve a comment disagreeing, or an upvote on an existing comment disagreeing with them.

For what it's worth, I contend that - notwithstanding what pg and dang said many years ago, this is the revealed preference of most HN users, because it's quite rare to see a comment that is downvoted, just because lots of people disagree with it.

That’s the IP of the company I was working for during late 90s / early 00s, and is the one which I used to initially create the Wikipedia entry for my hometown Grevenbroich (which is still visible as the first entry on its Versions page).

EMV doesn’t transmit the full card number in the clear. I don’t know how they’d get it. IIRC the track data is sanitized, but maybe it wasn’t always. I’m not even sure all cards give it in a modern EMV transaction.

The old mag stripe emulation mode of contactless did, but that’s legacy and many places won’t accept it and cards won’t do it.

However the good old “break the slot or chip reader so they have to use mag stripe and scan the card things the old fashioned way” technique still works great.

Why on earth would a government put up barriers to energy independence? Is this because the Polish grid is not stable enough to deal with a substantial fraction of power from renewables or to protect commercial interests?
How is more thoroughly understanding an important service pure waste? I could agree with inefficient, but definitely not pure waste.

An open-source core is only part of it, because different users will need different data models for different business domains. One of the biggest challenges here will be: how can you allow tenants to run arbitrary plugins that (a) execute arbitrary sandboxed server-side code, and (b) can store arbitrary new data models and custom fields within your instance's centralized storage alongside the canonical model types, in a way that allows for indices, foreign key constraints, and derived materialized fields?

If you solve this and provide a great developer experience, including free sandbox accounts and a payments stack so that developers can sell plugins without needing to ever operate their own infrastructure, with namespacing to avoid compatibility problems between apps, then the ecosystem will come.

Salesman was right, but keep in mind that what it's worth to them is always going to be more than they'll pay. Otherwise, there would be no point.
IMO if you can't cold start it you probably can't develop against it very quickly.

Then again we couldn't cold start a supply chain or a semi fab or humanity itself so maybe that's the default.
I will say this whenever I can: Salesforce has a moat because of their ecosystem. Full stop.

You must create an amazing ecosystem to compete. But creating that ecosystem is incredibly difficult.

Honestly, my opinion for how you could maybe make it work in open-source is to recreate the Salesforce API. That's a HUGE effort though, as it has a big surface. (I wonder how much of that is intentional to make it so others can't copy it well.)
Maybe you would be someone I could easily interact with, without them feeling uncomfortable soon ?
My 2 cents as a founder evaluating CRMs.

I would prefer to not use Salesforce until I have to - I know it's expensive, slow, and hard to customize. At the same SF users who I know tell me that nothing else works for orgs of above 100 people.

The demo looks great and I like that you are focusing on UX and performance - I would expect Linear-like experience for a tool I use every day. I would prefer a hosted version (my experience with self-hosted analytics/business tools was a nightmare).

I hope for your sake you aren't. If you are though you have all of my sympathy, someone like me looking back is not a good thing.
I think the argument rings hollow to me mostly because it's not that Harvard has to charge this much. I'm sure they could be providing the same quality of education for 1/5th the price. In fact, with the endowments many of these schools have, they could probably go tuition-free for a couple of decades and still be fine.

They charge this much essentially because they can (govt-subsidized loans), and because it helps them maintain a certain reputation.
The earnings for a streetwalker, who is at the bottom of the heap pretty much, is low. Some years ago I was offered sex for £15. I still feel sorry for that lonely lady who was just trying to get by best she could. I hope she's well.
Agree that evidence is appropriate, but as someone that's not in the US (NZ), we do broadly see it that way. US politics is very pervasive internationally, and you guys definitely appear to be split way more into 'left' and 'right' (as one example).

Compared to NZ's politics... which is more like a blob of parties which sit pretty close the centre, and sometimes parts of the blobs move more left or more right.

But naturally the dichotomy comment doesn't hold true in all circumstances.
I saw that headline and wondered if that was the case.

Did you email hn@ycombinator.com already?
If they were admitting legacy students who were hundreds of points lower on the SATs and bad grades, then yeah, it’d be as bad as affirmative action. But in practice it’s only ever used to break ties.

If affirmative action was implemented the same way legacy admissions is, I doubt the lawsuit against Harvard would ever exist, and opposition essentially non-existent.
I would argue that the meaning has never changed. There is just an additional slang variation used by a subset of English speakers. Much like “wicked” was once slang for “good” and how Londers don’t literally ring people using the bones of dogs (“dog an bone” Cockney rhyming slang, in case the reference doesn’t translate).

That is called Affirming the Consequent. Something like: all frameworks are composed of code so therefore all code eventually forms frameworks. It's a common form of nonsense.

Sure but we are talking about what the purpose should be not what it is.
The ecosystem is really not about Aura/Apex. I think the API is a bigger piece. Pretty much everything in Salesforce can be controlled via the API.

That isn't even the big challenge though. The biggest challenge is getting people to build for your platform. If a sales team uses 10+ integrations (it's honestly probably 20-50), then they will pick a platform that supports 9-10 of their integrations.
I generally agree, but:

> And means the hiring committee didn’t do sufficient due diligence to even ask people on his field if his work was valid.

Detecting fraudulent results isn't always easy. If there was already a public controversy about his papers and they didn't pick up on that, that was a failing. In the worst case, faked results can only be detected by running a study over again and getting a different result -- and even then, it's hard to rule out some difference that wasn't properly controlled for, an honest mistake somewhere, or just bad luck.

The standard of truth in science isn't peer review, it's having results that are consistently reproducible.
It is. But the hardest thing about the user is interacting with them. When the user does something, something in the program changes, and you have to change the screen to match. Or updating the screen when some information comes in from outside (like an API call).

That's basically what the article is about: keeping state in synch with the user interface. There are a bunch of different ways to do it. TFA compares a few of them.

A front end has to do a lot of other things, and it's kinda overstating it to say that state is "the single most important factor". But maybe not by much.
100k to solve or deflect interpersonal issues is sometimes worth it, too. One never knows when a lawsuit can pop up. :-)
>The government doesn't have the resources to investigate how scientifically plausible every new technology

Sure, but just common sense tells you this is nonsense. If you had a device which could do this you wouldn't be negotiating with some state government over some half a million. You would be in talks with various EV and battery manufacturers over licensing fees worth billions.
Especially bad since it apparently was sold by a convicted fraudster.

If that minimum of effort isn't put in, do you expect the government to do rigorous testing? Also, who is going to pay for removing those devices? Is it certain they aren't harmful or even dangerous?
it doesn't work. it just creates images based on the prompt, it has nothing to do with the doodle at all.

Edit: after some trying, there is sometimes some rough shape matching, but it's often very much off.
#2 is the biggest problem I've faced. It's nigh impossible to truly revamp what you have while also having to sell/serve/use/change the existing product. You either have to leadership who is willing to take the hit and stop new features/bugfixes from coming in while you're redoing the product, or you have to pad timelines for new features/bugfixes but that's risky too because you can be seen as someone moving too slow
I actually spoke with Peer Richelsen (CEO @ Cal.com) and he asked me the same question. Also mentioning that open-source is only beneficial when selling to enterprise companies, just like PostHog or Activepieces is planning/doing.

I was thinking about why someone would choose Snapify over Loom, being open-source would be one argument. But if those people are willing to pay is another question...

Not "weird" -- that's literally the operational model of VC. It is all about increasing the valuation of the invested company, as quickly as possible, and then selling it while the evaluation is high. Once a company gets VC investment, this is the only route that matters (unless the board somehow resists the dominance of the VC shareholders, which is extremely difficult to achieve).
Right, this recipe isn't well known.

`ssh-add -c` will cause your ssh agent to pop up with ssh-askpass every time it does an authentication. This is fiddly; You need to have configured your ssh-agent right, and there's a slightly different version to use keychains on macos that's equivalent.

Something I've had a longstanding desire to learn about is radio frequencies. I'm a very visual person, but I have yet to find any resource that explains it in a way that really makes sense to me. Especially when you start getting into modulation and whatnot. I'm fortunate to be able to use a variety of wireless technologies at work (licensed 80GHz, 18GHz and 950MHz frequencies), but I admittedly only have basic working knowledge and don't clearly comprehend what's happening at the lower physical level.

Does anyone have a good recommendation on any material that really made wireless technology understandable for you?

You're describing the scene from a short SF story where there are people living 'low' in the flooded parts of the US and 'high' on higher ground that stayed dry. Between the two there is barbed wire and gates. Those living 'high' are living pretty much like they do today, those living low are utterly dependent for all kinds of critical resources.

The story ends on a hopeful note, I think in practice it would turn into mass murder at some point.
I don't know whether there is an AI mechanism behind the scenes or not, but I have noticed the same pattern for multiple subjects as well.

One day you see a post about IDEs, the next hour or so it's full of IDE posts; some of them are even duplicates of the original one.

Another time will be about Machine Learning; next thing you know, it's full of posts related to the original one, with the only difference in post time.

A 1 TB NVME SSD is like $40 retail these days.
Even with SQL we recognize that while aggregate roots and ORMS are great for storing and editing single items, they're terrible for use cases where the data is _used_, and you're better off using different query mechanisms to slice it in a better way. Indexing services and caches and transformation pipelines continue that.

I think CQRS is really just a glimmer of DoD in the enterprise world, the recognition that the system of record is generally a terrible resource for actually using the data, and that you need to rethink everything again if you want a performant system.
and yet Arial and Courier New remain the go-to fonts for me.
