Not yet. There're plans to build migration tool for Synapse to Dendrite, but support for Conduit would need to be built in as well.

Either way, it's unknown how long it'll take.

It's energy consuming. It's just lower energy than other methods, and it's emphatically not cold fusion.
I agree with you and think it parallels the equity market a bit.

Stock prices embody the market's collective knowledge, expectations, and emotions about a company's current and future value.

And to your point if you are blindly investing or blindly buying via instruments like ETFs you can end up subsidizing those with more/better information.

I'm slowly starting to realise that nukes are very unlikely to be involved simply because the selfish shits who start and run the wars know they personally won't survive if they start the nuke match.
There are plenty of unsuccessful landlords who bought property hoping to renovate it and then found they couldn't, and for everyone who made money on the stock market there is someone who lost it.

In the comment above yours someone made the opposite example of a Baker who works all day making fantastic cakes but nobody buys them because his shop is in the wrong place, and the reply was that it's still his fault because he didn't spend enough time figuring out where and how to sell his wares. Making a good decision is just as much making a "thing" as making a physical object.

I think you are also mixing up wealth and success. A very rich man whose stock portfolio does not keep up with inflation is still very rich, but he is not successful.
Ask HN: Is anyone using PyPy for real work?
I have been the release manager for PyPy, an alternative Python interpreter with a JIT [0] since 2015, and have done a lot of work to make it available via conda-forge [1] or by direct download [2]. This includes not only packaging PyPy, but improving on an entire C-API emulation layer so that today we can run (albeit more slowly) almost the entire scientific python data stack. We get very limited feedback about real people using PyPy in production or research, which is frustrating. Just keeping up with the yearly CPython release cycle is significant work. Efforts to improve the underlying technology needs to be guided by user experience, but we hear too little to direct our very limited energy. If you are using PyPy, please let us know, either here or via any of the methods listed in [3].

> there can be an objective system to measure work accomplished and set rewards accordingly.

You’ve now undoubtedly made your life and that of those around you worse basically on the basis that you need to be proven wrong about being a “5x engineer”.

Engineers hate the hand-wavey nature of labour markets almost as much as they hate any attempts to remotely objectively quantify their performance.

The everybody-compromises happy medium is defined career tracks with largely qualitative and certainly subjective measures of actual responsibility. Nowhere in that are you going to get the reassurance that you’re after: that you’re worth 5 other engineers, or whatever. That’s just not how things work, even in IC roles. The fact that you pose this as a means of measurement in my eyes speaks volumes as to where you’d land on this imagined scale.

Honestly 99% of professions out there wouldn’t get away with being as entitled as software engineers are. Which, yes, market forces and all that. But let’s not pretend that there are many if any unreasonable aspects of a typical dev job.
> is how (like grunge) it was a media phenomenon that tried to unified very different bands [...] are all labeled "emo" but sound nothing alike.

Mostly agree, but there will always be within-group variation within the poor art form of taxonomising music scenes, and there were certainly similarities in the emo scene. For example, they almost all had the traditional structure of a guitar based band (guitarist, bassist, drummer) with big, melodic sounds well suited to stadium tours, and their lyrics shared similar emotional tones. You can point to most music scenes - grunge, Britpop, punk, post-punk, the 2000s garage revival, early 60s folk, etc - and I suspect you'd find more similarities than differences.
The existence of indo-european languages is itself ironclad evidence of the existence of a proto-indo-european language. The alternative would be that each of the populations speaking an indo-european language just made up identical vocabulary independently.

I'm not familiar with the networks in question, but I've run into a couple wifi networks connected to my lte carrier, and my unlocked phone pushes them hard.

Unless special care were taken, it makes sense that forgetting a network isn't remembered.

I've done this multiple times when new Debian Stable was released (Bookworm just got released). Its great, until it isn't (ie. you need more up-to-date software). Although to be fair, you might be comparing Ubuntu LTS with Debian releases and the minor Ubuntu releases get short support. Ubuntu is akin to a polished Debian Testing snapshot. I don't like them swapping to Snap either (snappy it ain't).
> "the antenna on the spacecraft had been pointing two degrees away from the Earth [...] left it without the ability to receive commands or transmit data [...] NASA reckons the situation is temporary [...]"

I wonder how it's temporary. Does the probe have a re-targeting function? The answer is in the original statement:

> "Voyager 2 is programmed to reset its orientation multiple times each year to keep its antenna pointing at Earth; the next reset will occur on Oct. 15, which should enable communication to resume. The mission team expects Voyager 2 to remain on its planned trajectory during the quiet period."
Broccoli is disgusting if not prepared well.

Chop it small (the stems really small) add sliced garlic, sliced hot pepper, some olive oil and a cup of water then cook it for 3-4 minutes only. Drink the water and (if you must) serve with lots of cheese and bacon. (add the cheese immediately or it wont melt)

Like with broth, the first day it tastes good. If you prepare it again within the next 2 days the body screams for more. Specially the water is funny, it feels as if some magic potion.
Show HN: YakshaLisp – Macros for Yaksha and Lisp Dialect
YakshaLisp is a sub-language embedded in Yaksha compiler.

Allowing you to do things like below (fizzbuzz).

macros!{
(defun to_fb (n) (+ (if (== n 1) "" " ") (cond
((== 0 (modulo n 15)) "FizzBuzz")
((== 0 (modulo n 3)) "Fizz")
((== 0 (modulo n 5)) "Buzz")
(true (to_string n))
)))
(defun fizzbuzz () (list (yk_create_token YK_TOKEN_STRING (reduce + (map to_fb (range 1 101))))))
(yk_register {dsl fizzbuzz fizzbuzz})
}

def main() -> int:
println(fizzbuzz!{})
return 0

This is available in latest release - https://github.com/YakshaLang/Yaksha/releases/tag/v0.0.4 (I recommend using release.py in compiler/scripts if you want to locally compile it)

Few more examples:

- embedding a text file

macros! {
(defun load_string (file) (list (yk_create_token YK_TOKEN_STRING (io_read_file (map_get file "value")))))
(yk_register {dsl load_string load_string})
}

def main() -> int:
println(load_string!{"test.txt"})
return 0

- importing a macro

import import_me as magic

def main() -> int:
println(magic.counter!{})
println(magic.counter!{})
println(magic.counter!{})
return 0

Looking for ideas/advice/criticism :)
Free speech mostly involves what things the government can do when you say things they don't like. I can say the government is a corrupt bunch of nepotistic idiots without fearing the government coming to my door and arresting me or forcing websites to take down such expression.

If I go around this forum posting "chips rapes children" everywhere you go and you sue me for defamation, that doesn't mean you're against free speech. You have the right to protect your good name as much as I have the right to express my opinions about you. I this example, you would obviously have the ability to crush me in court for spreading baseless accusations.

There are troubling threats to free speech, such as the incendiary lies spread under the guise of "fake news", followed by governments trying to control the wild conspiracy theories and endangering our rights to free speech in the process. However, you having the right to defend yourself against baseless accusations isn't a threat against anyone's human rights.
A few things:

Knuth was asked to demonstrate his new literate programming and probably thought an 8-page mini-paper was about the right "length" to do so:

https://buttondown.email/hillelwayne/archive/donald-knuth-was-framed/

McIlroy was asked to show off productivity in the newly popular Unix system, and he did that.

While often framed as "a contest" the two approaches are really solving different enough problems as being apples-oranges. So, the only meaningful judgement of a contest is "who better achieved their narrow goals?"

I've found in discussions with people that they seem unable to separate their judgement of "a winner" from their own personal weight on the value of the two narrow goals ("detailed articulation mixing code & text" vs. "just getting shit done").

There is probably some broader lesson about people in that (and indeed probably a specific term in the science of psychology) - those who really like apples or really like oranges being inclined to force a non-contest into one of their favored "Eat oranges!" rhetorical moves.

EDIT: and it's actually even more subtle - the very same person can side with either depending on broader context or framing. There are those who would praise detailed documentation over write-only hacks requiring detailed memory of tool innards in one situation yet decry it as a waste of time in another. (All part of why survey results are not to be accepted naively.)

> If left unchallenged, they would do as goats do, destroy.

Do not equate goats and beavers, their impact is not the same.

Goat (and cattle) herds overgraze vegetation and kill the soil microbime by it, prevent afforestation and exacerbate soil erosion and desertification.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/316721412_Blame_it_...

https://epar.evans.uw.edu/research/environmental-implication...

Beavers create wetlands - highly effective carbon sinks.

By slowing down the flow of water, they reduce the risk of floods during heavy rains and ensure a steady water supply during drier periods.

Diverse wetland habitats increase biodiversity, of both plant and animal species. During heavy rainfall, the dams can slow down and retain water, preventing downstream flooding.

In times of drought, the dams help maintain water levels in streams and wetlands, providing a more stable water supply for plants and wildlife.

Beaver ponds and wetlands can have a cooling effect on the surrounding landscape. The presence of water bodies can moderate local temperatures, reducing the risk of extreme heat events in the area.

Beaver activity promotes soil health by increasing organic matter in wetland areas. The accumulation of organic material can improve soil fertility and water retention, benefiting vegetation and enhancing the overall health of the ecosystem.

In areas where ecosystems have been degraded by human activities like deforestation or mining, beavers can play a role in restoring wetlands and improving the ecological conditions of the region.

> but it can be an issue if a particular demographic, particularly one that might have the least direct motivation to vote for policies aimed at long-term system wide improvements, has outsized representation

that's democracy working as intendend.

Besides: don't underestimate the fact that older people have much more motivation than adults, because they are at rest, they can think about the past, they actually have a past to think about and can draw conclusions on what their generation did and what the results were and how that affects the people they love and are worried about, particularly their nephews, who represent the real "new hope" for them. Most elderly were too busy working and taking care of their families when they were younger to focus on the long term results of their actions.

While younger people lack either the motivation, the experience or the tools to make such an analysis.

> that way the fact that there might be many more 65-70yos vs 20-25yos wouldn't affect the outcome

You are assuming that all the old people vote against the interests of the 20-25 years old people and vice versa, but actually it's very far from the truth.

The tension between equal representation and fairness of the outcome has been studied for a long time.

Very odd. The last time I bought a vehicle I just wrote a check, the seller took a photo of my ID, and I was handed the vehicle title. I understand some sellers will accept a cashier's check. I always thought this was the normal way of buying high dollar items like this with 'cash'. Does Germany not have something like that? Surely going to a bank in Germany and withdrawing or depositing $30k in cash must raise some alarms.

Absolutely. I’ve been doing this with the XP theme after this was posted on HN last time and I thought the same thing.

an individual beaver has far more environmental impact than an individual human

I wouldn't be so sure of that, if you look at the total impact over an average human's lifespan so including what it takes for food, all the stuff people buy, cars, travel, ... (and not just the land occupied for a house which I think is what you mean)

But my point is, a beaver colony turns a river into a marsh, kills grassland, endless trees both due to flooding and feeding, prevents water from flowing downstream, stops fish from spawning, utterly changing the landscape.

This makes it sound as if this is somehow unnatural, and you're doing that by only highlighting what you consider as the negatives. It's not like these marches are dead, on the contrary. They are just a different type of ecosystem and it's not because it doesn't have trees or grassland (and I'm saying that as a huge grassland lover because in my area there's really not a lot of original grasslands left and most of its inhabitatnts are in serious decline) that it doesn't have its own, rich biodiversity of plants and insects and birds etc which thrive (or even can only survive) in such landscape. Beavers have existed for longer than the current form of humans and have their spot on earth, as do goats in their natural surrounding (not the same as a mass herd held for human food!), even though they might be perceived as doing damage on some scale.

but I think we all need a bigger view sometimes

Exactly, and then you see that beavers have always been there and just because humanity grew they started to be 'in the way' of humans and are getting a bad reputation. Whereas the bigger view would be that beavers just do as they do, but then humans start complaining because the result isn't useful or inhabitable. Which is understandable, but doesn't mean the rhetoric of 'beavers are bad, mkay' is super logical.
Well I mean earlier in the thread they're describing issues on performance reviews due to not attending these, so I'd say that's a big problem.

I mean, I have a feeling there may have been other things at work there, but I guess I feel like you can team build without having to do it outside of work hours. If you are not being paid, I don't really see how that's legal to be required to do anything. It seems to me that if one could prove that, it could warrant some legal action as well.
