Right, global inference turns out to be too much inference. Function boundaries are a convenient place to draw a line.

As usual C++ choose to something much weirder and more dangerous. Instead of inference C++ can deduce types, in some cases there's no way to write a type's name so you have to deduce types, and they can be deduced at the edges of functions however unlike inference it's not an error to have ambiguity, in some cases deduction may choose one of the possibilities that it liked better even if that's astonishing for you.

Because Rust's functions must tell you their types explicitly, and because some types can't be named specifically, the result is that in Rust you have to write these functions polymorphically, even if in practice there's only one possibility. In C++ you can write the non-polymorphic function, despite not being able to say the name of the type. How do you document that? It's OK, C++ doesn't require you to provide even halfway usable documentation.

If I understand correctly, Terranigma was only released on PAL. Since you expected players would use an adapter you added a crystal in the cartridge so the timing would be the same NTSC system?

Did you also adjust the resolution to account for the missing tiles on NTSC?
The explanation is that there seems to be a mathematical parallel between some wave equation used in quantum physics and the wave equation used in studying weather patterns.
The data doesn't support an Airbnb bust and it never has. Bottom line is markets were there were suddenly distorted pricing effects due to high demand and low supply are now experiencing pricing equilibrium as supply has increased and they can no longer command $1k+/night.

Also, with most consumers feeling a squeeze from prices, higher interest rates, etc. it's expected that these sky high prices have to come down.
I've been using the Firefox addon called "Tree Style Tab" for quite a few years now. I'm quite pleased with it since I have more width than height on my screen anyway.

How many non-franchise fantasy TV writing opportunities are there? As nobody will consider trying their ideas, every job picked will likely have some compromises.
At the other places I worked, the main persuasion was the manager being less of a hard-ass. With delivery it's a bit harder, customers will probably complain if the online tracker says it was delivered and it actually is still in the oven.

I still think not tying metrics into goals made a big difference. The manager goals were things like store profit and customer satisfaction surveys.
Spack is a lot more than just python package manager :)
Weaviate is pretty cool IMO. It is open source and fairly easy* to get this running locally and do stuff with it. Definitely worth playing with. In the past I have done a search-type thing for a side project and used Elastic Search. While I think ES is great, it might be overkill and something like this might be easier to manage.

You can even run Weaviate as an embedded python package rather than a separate process, so compare that to running an ES cluster and I think life gets a lot easier. Although you are probably working 'closer to the metal' but really if you use ES you will be tuning the hell out of it anyway.

* depends on your experience, but if you can use docker, and know roughly what an embedding basically is a concept, then not too hard to get something up and running.
Oh my god, this is hilarious

User: what is the answer to life of ant?

User: but what is it really? something edible?

User: continue please

I have a background in economics and finance with a stronger-than-average focus in statistics (compared to my peers in these fields), and I agree with you that statistical literacy (both in terms of application/interpretation but also an understanding of the mathematical foundations) are lacking in not only life sciences but really any field besides statistics. I am certain I must have done some bad-stats with the research I worked on too, because as the article also points out, it's hard to do it right and be certain you have a correct model with appropriate tests (even with so many eyes on it!)

Increasing the literacy requirements is an option, but not realistically implementable. I think providing guidance and implementation support by actual practicing statisticians being involved in the data analysis sections of published research as a prerequisite is more realistic.

A process in which experiments are conducted and data is collected, and the statisticians are involved in the interpretation in collaboration with the researchers is expensive in time and money, but I guess will produce much better quality analyses.

Who wants to put this one to test?
All this would be worth it for Terranigma alone. Did you have any other pal carts?
> The result of `longer_of` is a projection of the longer argument, so the mutation of `z` by `emphasize` occurs directly on the value of `y`. The value is neither copied, nor moved, and yet it is not being passed by reference to `emphasize`. The body of `emphasize` owns `z` in exactly the same way as it owns `strength`, which is passed by value: `z` is an independent value that can only be touched by `emphasize`.

This evasive phrasing, which continuoes after this excerpt too, has me highly skeptical of their good intentions… Any good reason they are not more explicit?
But we made do with C for how many years?

K&R C was, what, 1972...and it's 2023 now. So that's 51 years with no definitive end of 'making do' in sight.
No, GP makes a fair point. If it were true that all this does is benefit claimants and plaintiffs, the adversaries of the one taking the action, why would they do it?
What happens if one node lost their shards due to external event? (e.g. Disk corruption, physcially destroyed like OVH Cloud) I do understand we still have to actively backup but I rather not serve any data than serving wrong data at the time of severe outage. Also I want to see any forward error correction code (FECC) would be implemented in Citus so we can do this on the fly rather than relying on RAID, e.g. RAID10, RAIDZ1, RAIDZ2
On the contrary, I think most DEI programs suck and people know it. There's a few like the Dallas program that actually try to solve the problem in a reasonable way, and you won't find nearly as much pushback from people on those.

The Playground stores more than the SQLite database in OPFS. This includes things like installed plugins and file uploads and other artifacts brought in during boot. If there's enough interest and time I could imagine support being added to separate these, but for now it's easiest to have a single load and store mechanism for everything.

There's a third option supported only in Chrome at the moment which loads a directory from your computer's filesystem, bypassing even OPFS.

The latest report lacks this information, but the 2010 FBI report has this to say.

> The gender gap in crime reporting has dramatically narrowed. Early in IC3’s history, men reported crime at a ratio of more than 2.5 to 1 over women. Today, men and women report crimes almost equally. In many states, a slightly higher proportion of women than men report crimes to IC3. The narrowed reporting gap between the sexes has significantly impacted the dollar loss between men and women over the last 10 years. During the course of IC3’s early history, men reported a loss of more than $2.00 for every $1.00 reported by a woman. According to the 2010 data, men now report a loss of $1.25 for every $1.00 reported by a woman. [0]

The SCMP[1] and this non-profit[2] say a majority of victim are women.

10x-ing page traffic through community building, as a software engineer
Hi all,

Author here. My favorite learning last week was how to increase page views to my site, which as a developer, I've struggled with soo much.

Here’s my strategy:

- Live in the comments sections of creators. Twitter, Threads, TikTok, Youtube. Aim to Educate → Inspire → Entertain their audience.

- Always have your email subscription box in your profile bio. Use these marketplaces to collect emails.

- I’m lucky because I have a unique name, so this also gets people to type my name into google, which goes straight to my website.

- Post great content online to forums like HackerNews and Reddit.

- (not in the article) Timeliness. Post things that are relevant today. This article breaks that rule bc "creator economy" is unpopular at the moment - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=fa.... That being said, I can't help what I'm passionate about. A better topic would be "llm" - https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=tr...

- (not in the article) Go to the growing platforms. There's a few charts in the link that show growth rates of social platforms. TikTok, Linkedin, Reddit, are all growing platforms that don't have build in public bloggers yet. My numbers show it too. My best performing platform is TikTok and I spend the least amount of time on that content.

And it worked! At my current rate of growth I'll be at 5k+ page views at the end of the month. That's 10x more than last month!
This is SAT-prep in a nutshell. :)

Show HN: DepsHub – AI-powered dependency updates made easy
Hey HN!

I'm excited to share DepsHub, a new AI-powered dependency updates platform that helps you to keep your projects up to date.

Almost every team that I worked with struggled with the same problem - keeping their dependencies up to date (package.json, I'm looking at you!). DepsHub automatically detects all the packages in your repositories and updates them according to the changelogs (including breaking changes). Some of the other features that are worth mentioning:

- Security and vulnerabilities alerts
- Licences monitoring
- Integrations with Github, Gitlab, and Linear (more coming soon!)
- Smart scheduling. Some libraries update every week and there is no need to create noise in your repository by opening tons of PRs. We make sure to use the best optimal schedule for all the updates.

You can find more details in our FAQ but I'm here to answer any questions. Cheers!
I was just looking for QEMU as a library, thank you!
I'm talking about pretty large projects. Try navigating, for example, an operating system kernel for its very many functions you encounter just when writing a device driver. You won't know where to find everything (most things maybe even), so manual navigation is certainly not O(log(N)).

Unless you want to mindlessly click through directory structures and files hunting for vague hints, what are you going to do? Full text search? Unless you're both careful and lucky, you will find a lot or all of the call sites as well. Which, again, gets worse the larger the project (and thus the number of call sites) gets.

Then, you better remember the arguments' type, order, and significance of the many functions you call, otherwise it's back to the navigation I've described above every time you want to use it.

This was one of the more extreme examples, but the whole problem starts to rear its ugly head pretty early in much smaller projects. The issue is however somewhat masked if you are the only or one of very few developers with high familiarity of the project. Of course then you know which file to click on and where to scroll to.

But then, even on a small project, that project rarely exists in a vacuum (the OS kernel example above is actually almost somewhat of an exception). You will use other frameworks and libraries, at the very least the language's standard library, usually, which is effectively a big project again.
I'm confused about task parallelism. Is that like a job scheduler that can run multiple jobs in parallel? Or is it more like a pipeline parallelism?
I made a whole career out of publishing NLP research based on the evidence from competitive debate. 11/10 would recommend.

Fair. Two questions:

- What is the least expensive device that can be certified like that? The least expensive process?

- What is the highest level of openness such a device can offer to the user, and why?

To my mind, it would be best to have an option of a completely locked down and certified hardware token, a device like a Yubikey, that could talk to my laptop, desktop, phone, or any other computing device using a standard protocol. As long as it's unforgeable, the rest of the system can be much. much less secure, without compromising the overall security.
A ton of companies wanted to basically do intracity delivery but with with drones. It’s crazy hard airspace, hard from a technical standpoint wrt obstacle avoidance, and ultimately you’re competing against going downstairs and getting your own toothpaste. There’s not a ton of margin.

There were also a lot of efforts at more rural delivery schemes but mostly they’re working with quadcopter or hybrid designs which requires a ton of mass being dedicated to power. This restricts your flight time to about 30min and payload to a couple pounds (with some trade off function allowing more or less of one or the other). Even without regulation this means your delivery radius is on the order of a couple miles which means you’re competing against getting in the car or waiting a day.

I think the drone delivery concept is (without magic batteries) DOA if you’re talking about electric powered drones to areas that already have good 0-2 day options to get the thing you’re talking about delivering.

Using gas powered autonomous drones to deliver large payloads to remote areas with decent landing spots seems viable. I’m working on an air to ground glider drone prototype that can maybe be useful for “too far/logistically difficult for fast ground delivery but doesn’t have a prepared strip” but that requires being dropped from an aircraft so it needs to be worth the fractional cost of the flight etc.

Tl;dr: The power required to fly things, battery power density, and the geographical distribution of demand for delivery don’t seem to love each other.

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate your thoughtful feedback and couldn't agree more with many of your points. The primary purpose of this demo isn't to encourage self-diagnosis or the unmonitored consumption of dietary supplements but to demonstrate the potential of semantic search in a field that we know is fraught with misinformation.

As you rightly pointed out, the regulatory landscape of dietary supplements is quite different from that of drugs or food, and this often leads to a host of issues, including misleading labels and unproven health claims. Our goal is not to feed into these problems but instead to use technology to parse through the vast amount of data and draw out meaningful information. Dietary supplements are not a cure-all or replacement for professional medical advice.

They can, however, be beneficial in some instances if used correctly and under the guidance of healthcare professionals. Melatonin, a hormone that our bodies naturally produce in response to darkness, plays an essential role in regulating our sleep-wake cycle. Research has shown that supplemental melatonin can benefit those with disrupted sleep patterns. For instance, a systematic review and meta-analysis published in "Sleep Medicine Reviews" found that melatonin reduces sleep onset latency (the time it takes to fall asleep), increases total sleep time, and enhances overall sleep quality [1]. Another study in the "Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine" reported that melatonin could benefit those with Delayed Sleep-Wake Phase Disorder, a condition characterized by a significant delay in sleep onset and waking times [2]. These studies suggest that, under specific circumstances, melatonin can be an effective sleep aid, emphasizing the importance of consulting with a healthcare provider to assess individual needs and potential benefits.

You're putting "plotted to" and "successfully" to a lot of work here, on behalf of claims your sources appear at great pains not to make or even imply.

You seem to take this whole concept very seriously, so maybe you can help me understand why. Out of the idea that Russians are responsible for all of America's worst problems, what endgame do you see that actually improves our situation? What specific and relevant changes in domestic and foreign policy would you prescribe?
Afghanistan is also a good example (it used to be better pre Soviet invasion)
> While I believe you are right on average, an attentive driver not fighting their vehicle is going to have better reaction times than an attentive driver who does.

True, but "just pay more attention" is no more actionable than "just drive better". AIUI e.g. aeroplanes have deliberately cut down parts of the automation because it ends up doing more harm than good.
I'm using Slackware-current with manually maintained [edit: actually, I wrote a python script to generate it, see other comment] grub.cfg (grub 2.06) on a MBR system, and happy I don't have GPT. Recently I tried to convert a Windows installation from MBR to GPT. What a disaster, never doing that again (but if you do need to, use gdisk [1]. It's great, I had unrelated issues). I suppose I'll eventually have to convert my Linux PC to GPT when replacing the motherboard. I haven't ever reinstalled Slackware (I just upgrade), since switching to it in 2007. Honestly there are issues with that.

Slackware just celebrated its 30 year anniversary two days ago [2] and still going strong without systemd ;) Well actually it now has eudev, which is the small unintrusive part of systemd which a lot of software these days has as a dependency. Everything is still done with rc files. Best of both worlds.
