Afaik, tailscale recently made changes to their go user space implementation that actually made their version faster than the kernel implementation, at least in some cases.

I remember reading a blog post on tailscacles' website about it and how they are pushing their changes upstream (wg kernel and official wg go user space implementation).

Can't find the post now though.

That's quite an insightful take. Open Source Vendor funds the expensive software, but the value they receive back is only accrued in the delta between the Open Source Vendor managing as a SaaS and the end client managing themselves. It's like collecting pennies in front of a steamroller.

Companies like Redhat and Hashicorp are different because they sell huge enterprise deals, but a mass market SaaS only play is a tricky business model.

So this sounds like some men and women were earning less than others. If pay has a large variance (e.g. because some people are better at selling themselves), and the workforce is overwhelming male, you would expect exactly this. Even if women on average were to earn less, the majority of those being underpaid would be men.

I think that one of the reasons you have been downvoted is because you are generalizing too much about Europe.

There are European countries where one does not even round up the bill unless one really wants to, and countries where it is totally commonplace to order a big pitcher of tap water.

The article also states "At the end of 2017, it adjusted 228 employees’ salaries by a combined total of about $270,000", which is a very similar figure.

You can assume there's a wide variance, but all that would mean is that most employees are paid basically correctly with a few outliers. If anything, that would diminish the value of the story.
Ok, I did a double take. It's a different Rusty playing with futexes!!
I'm not sure I understand your point... The object mass does not impact its trajectory (unless it either touches our atmosphere or is so massive as to measurably change earth's orbit). The gravitational force earth exerts on the moon and some asteroid is also very different, because the force is proportional to both object masses.

That's a very important distinction in the latter part.
They are somewhat understood in their action mechanisms, whether VMAT1, VMAT2, D1, D2 receptors etc. But not really in their effectiveness (which is slightly more important, especially to determine administration protocols).

Which is also the point of the article.
The main issue I see is that the algorithm - unlike the mediant version - does not generate maximally successive accurate approximations.

Yes, you can stop the algorithm at a certain accuracy, but that doesn't mean you can't get better for that given accuracy.

Consider the pi = 3.14159265359 case, and you want it precise to 1/1,000,000. The float64 algorithm gives 1146408/364913 or 5419351/1725033 because:

...
1146408/364913 = 3.141592653591404 (diff: -1.403765992336048e-12)
--- want a solution here ---
5419351/1725033 = 3.1415926535898153 (diff: 1.8474111129762605e-13)
...

The mediant method, on the other hand, gives an intermediate solution:

>>> import fractions
>>> fractions.Fraction("3.14159265359").limit_denominator(1000000)
Fraction(3126535, 995207)
>>> float(fractions.Fraction("3.14159265359").limit_denominator(1000000))
3.1415926535886505

That's a difference of -1.3495871087343403e-12 which is more accurate than 1146408/364913, and is not a solution found by the other algorithm.

Or, if you want a denominator of 364913 or 1725033 you can do that with mediants:

>>> fractions.Fraction("3.14159265359").limit_denominator(364913)
Fraction(1146408, 364913)
>>> fractions.Fraction(3.14159265359).limit_denominator(1725033)
Fraction(5419351, 1725033)

Another issue is the numerical range. Consider the input "1.5e-318". It causes overflow in the float, decimal, and fraction implementations I gave:

% python frac.py 1.5e-318 --method float
Using float64 for '1.5e-318'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "frac.py", line 40, in <module>
print("solution:", to_frac(Q))
File "tmp.py", line 31, in to_frac
Dc = Db * int(Zb) + Da
OverflowError: cannot convert float infinity to integer

% python frac.py 1.5e-318 --method fraction
Using fractions for '1.5e-318'
1/666666666... many 6s removed ...6666 = 1/666666666... many 6s removed ...6666
(diff: -1/666 .. more 6s removed ... 6600.. even more zeros removed ...00)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "frac.py", line 40, in <module>
print("solution:", to_frac(Q))
File "frac.py", line 35, in to_frac
if float(N) / float(Dc) == float(X):
OverflowError: int too large to convert to float

while with the mediant solution I don't need to worry about the input range beyond infinity and NaN:

>>> from fractions import Fraction
>>> Fraction(1.5e-318).limit_denominator(1000000)
Fraction(0, 1)

(I used the float() calls to ensure the fraction and decimal methods stop at the limits of float64. If I remove them I still end up with numbers like 3/2E319 which would not be representable as a Turbo Pascal integer, while the Turbo Pascal mediant implementation would not have a problem.)

Finally, the mediant solution is easier to implement.

> I consider setting up empire-wide infrastructure to be something that largely happens due to socioeconomic forces and the environmental conditions of the empire, not something that 1 guy decides to do alone

Yes, well, that's not how history actually happened. I suggest reading more about Augustus the individual and the decisions he made. A different person would have made different decisions – which yes, would have reverberated down to the common man in "Ohio", especially if his formerly peaceful locale is now a warzone or if his children are drafted into the military.

Augustus laid the bureaucratic and financial foundation for the Empire and without him, there's no guarantee that the Roman Empire actually exists. So again, no, the empire would not "have been led by someone slightly different and perhaps had slightly different borders." It may have splintered into eastern and western divisions sooner, been overrun by barbarians more quickly, or fractured into the pieces held by the various factions.

This exact same scenario has happened many times WRT Muhammad, Napoleon, Constantine, George Washington, et cetera et cetera. The idea that individuals are just interchangeable cogs is just a 20th century cultural trope, not an accurate reading of history.

Ask HN: Managers on HN, WFH as a Perk?
Hear me out. Would you pay for a SAAS product which ties WFH to performance? For egs, emp A gets a rating of 4/5 by working from home for 3 days/week whereas emp B gets a rating of 2/5 by working from home for 3 days/week. There is no point in mandating RTO for emp A. This would help you create a custom WFH policy for each employee. Basically, you can reward good perfomance with relaxed WFH policies. Let me know your thoughts!

As a commercial artist that's worked in several professional creative industries, I find the current textual methods of interacting with generative image AI to be unusable for the vast majority of professional tasks. I think they're great for a lot of laypeople because they abstract away things that laypeople don't want to have to think about— but in professional workflows, you need specificity at pixel-level granularity, predictability, and repeatability. Those things are all difficult with purpose-built tools and impossible through text prompts. I haven't spoken to a single colleague that doesn't work in high-volume, low-effort end of their disks/fields that disagree. Most commercial artists selling point is deciding exactly what should go into a piece, and implementing it is the easy part.

The pro tools that have incorporated generative AI into their workflows are not at all textual. The environment that popularizes this among the general public will look a lot more like canva or maybe Instagram than what's popular now.

Anecdotally, I continue to see friend groups form where near all of them are neurodivergent without knowing it. Because their brains work differently, when they find someone else whose brain works in a similar way it’s less effort to spend time with them.

It shouldn’t be a surprise then when one of them gets diagnosed, the rest eventually look into it and get diagnosed too.

It helps that in the last 3-5 years talking publicly about ADHD has become less stigmatised (one of the reasons I continue to do so). I first suspected having it over a decade before looking more into it. I wouldn’t have hesitated if social conversation then is like it is now.

The internet doesn’t cause ADHD, neurodivergence is likely more prevalent than expected. We (neurodivergent’s) have all been masking and developing strategies to survive the modern world. Then covid happened, and the normal support structures fell away, coping mechanisms failed.

All of a sudden things went from hard to basically impossible, it’s no wonder some of us decided to ask whether or not the experience was normal or if there might be something else at play.

Diagnostically ADHD symptoms need to be present when you were younger (IIRC 10-12), so if they just started at 22 it might be something else. Or it might be you left home, made a major life change, and your previous coping strategies no longer work.
While I agree in principle. We mostly enjoy benefits of those sins. The money/land/power gained by ancestors by means which we believe unethical/illegal now continues to provide value for the descendants.
Equity wasn't a typo. It refer to the policy of quotas, whether it be official or unofficial. And isn't it a valid social phenomenon to be studied, proved, or disproved? Surely, if equity or pay policies are being gamed, then perhaps it might be useful to look into it.

And obviously, if you are here for the technical discussions, why did you click on a thread about salaries of men vs. women?

\tangent the early approaches were less efficient than later ones, meaning you need that much more power to get started, so you can start improving it.

Theoretically, the better method could have been worked out from the beginning, but actual progress doesn't seem to happen like that. It may be because a working model enables faster experiments (iteration) to search the space-of-methods faster, and in particular to prune off dead-ends, making the search-space smaller.
