A lot of people, myself included, are disappointed about how "science happened" here and absolutely don't share the view that it should be like this.

You're right that the system ultimately worked.

But doing things "well" isn't just to win some aesthetics contest. It's essential precisely because, due to all our human flaws, it's too easy to delude yourself by doing sloppy work.

In this case, doing sloppy work has won the authors international fame and attention -- an insult to all those who do their experiments properly.

The LK-99 authors probably didn't do themselves any favors in the long run, but it is easy to think of examples where sloppy work leads to some quick social media wins, but the topic is not as sexy so ultimately isn't scrutinized in the same way.

Social media clout is already playing a role in hiring decisions, and social media is only becoming more important. If they haven't already done so, it's just a matter of time before funding agencies factor it into their decisions.

Performative show science designed to wow a mass public is exactly what we don't need.

These things actually require real, deep study, talent, and tens of thousands of hours of hard work to do and assess properly. The people doing that need to be able to do their work in peace without needing to pander to crowds.
I put a small one in my laundry room because it was a little musty with the front loader having to dry out and the door to the room being closed all the time. It drains right into the sink and the room. I highly suggest it.
But reading those definitions at the top of the file is usually one of the first places I’m going to go to understand what’s going on. The 4-line option to me is much easier to grok, not only because it’s more terse but the way the pipes are stacked to indicate visually that they are related to the same underlying structure. The `extends Message` bit is a level of indirection that requires the reader to juggle a lot more in their head (as is immutable `final` not being the default). The `class` keyword also carries a lot of baggage that it’s not clear what to expect (will this have methods or not?, will we be seeing `this`?, etc.).
> It's also because Windows after 8ish seem to just assume everyone has an SSD and small file ops are "fast enough" to not care about and sure just throw blocking IO into the hot loop nobody cares.

I haven't had this issue, strangely. These days all my OS's are on SSD's though. But that was not the case when I first moved over to Win10 for my gaming PC and work both.

The shenanigans with windows updates though... I am convinced that there's something in the OS to intentionally cause strange behavior when updates are pending as a way of incentivizing you to reboot. This didn't used to happen. I haven't yet made the time to properly study it, because it's always at a moment where I have more important things to do.

A starlink launch takes lots of money but results in dozens of new satellites in orbit that in theory could be sold to some other company looking to create an internet constellation. That doesn’t seem that different from a factory where it takes money to build the factory, but then the factory can, in theory be sold. Yes the launch disappears, but the thing the launch did doesn’t.

>The amazing part about examples like that is people read them, check that the compiler really does work on that basis, and then continue writing things in C++ anyway. Wild.

Well, in modern C++ this code would look like this:

std::array<int, 4> table;
bool exists_in_table(int v)
{
for (auto &elem : table) {
if (elem == v) return true;
}
return false;
}

Or even simpler:

std::array<int, 4> table;
bool exists_in_table(int v)
{
return std::ranges::contains(table, v);
}

There's no shortage of footguns in C++, but nonetheless, modern C++ is safer than C.

Very tangential. Those sorts of spaces do exist, and likewise pockets of racism, homophobia, transphobia, and misogeny all exist too. Hating cis white men for existing isn't something that should be acceptable, and death threats are never okay. And there are stressors that they do face - the suffering of others does not invalidate your own. But at the same time, there are also plenty of spaces mocking and belittling trans people, gay people, black people, and women in general. Those places also spam death threats, only these death threats are a little more credible, a little more real, because there is a history of real, physical violence against all those demographics. At the same time, there are many people who just genuinely don't understand, who were sheltered by the previous generation's willful ignorance, who phrase their questions in a way that looks, at first glance, like another unprompted malicious attack. The violence is why those communities react so strongly to those questions, and why they are so hostile to what is, by all accounts, a reasonable statement. In more closed off digital spaces, where conversation is focused around issues common to those demographics, like the violence or discrimination they've experienced, it might come across as uncaring - if a trans woman is talking about how a cute guy she was talking to at a bar stalked her and tried to beat her after she mentioned that she is trans, and someone chooses that moment to say that it's not okay to hate cis white men, it just comes across as intentionally uncaring, as if that person saw all of the murder, rape, violence, hatred, and discrimination these people experience in daily life, then decided, "Nope, your attitude towards white cis men is the real problem here". Open spaces often use the same heuristic to determine if someone is acting in good faith, but due to being open this tends to catch a lot of people who aren't familiar with the heuristic at play, and only see a perfectly legitimate statement that seems to put everyone in a frenzy.
Now this isn't to say that these communities don't take it too far on their own. There are some which engage in doxxing, death threats, and all sorts of terrible behavior, but those communities are not the whole majority, just as the racist, transphobic, misogynistic and homophobic groups aren't the whole of cis white men. In both cases, those groups simply are the loudest.
There are many, many, many worse cities in the US. That's a homicide rate of 3.75/100'000, which is lower than the US average of 4.9/100'000 : most US cities have worse homicide rates than Marseille. If Marseille was a US city, it would be the 3rd or 4th city with a population over 1 million with the lowest homicide rate.

Rates at this level means governments must either pay back debt (good luck with that) or cut spending ~5% per year, every year, and borrowing more for new projects will be very hard to justify.

> As far as I'm aware this is a brittle /inflexible material so my point about the mechanical properties still stands.

Yes. You want them to be ductile (malleable, or that can be deformed permanently in less-technical language). Although they could also be flexible (meaning that they can deform, but go back to their natural shape if we stop applying a force), as in the case of fibre optics cables, which are actually not crystals but quite brittle.

The interesting twist is that a solid pretty much has to be a crystal to be malleable. Almost all the metals you can think of are in their crystalline state.

> And when people refer to growing crystals, that generally refers to a particular kind of crystal.

I don’t know. From my experience people equate crystals with shiny things without really thinking about it. But this is HN, and we should try to be a bit better than a random person on the street. After all, most people don’t know a web browser from an OS, but I would be ridiculed if I make that confusion here.

It is a wonderful community where you are almost certain to discuss with some experts in pretty much any given field, it is a great opportunity to learn and grow.

> Ive never heard of anyone growing aluminium crystals

If you’ve seen solid aluminium, then you’ve seen it as a crystal. It is pretty much impossible with common techniques to get non-crystalline solid aluminium.

> except if it's a compound, and then you get a crystal like we think of when we say crystals.

That’s the thing, I don’t know what you think of when you say “crystal”. In actual fact, a crystal is a state of condensed matter in which atoms or ions are aligned in a 3-dimensional pattern that can be replicated to fill the space. In the case of aluminium, you can actually see how the atoms are arranged in a periodic way in articles such as this one (figure 3): https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323423565_Anomalous... . There are many other examples, and it is absolutely fascinating. We have the tools to count atoms and see the structure of the material!

And it is undoubtedly a crystal.
And NASA will probably be very happy to use such a cheap system once they are convinced it meets their reliability standards. The point of SLS IMO is to keep a backup option if SpaceX has some horrific, unpredicted setback or design problem.

> If you can make a library to run python code inside a JS project

This is actually exactly what Pyodide does! It's basically the CPython interpreter compiled to wasm. This will allow you to run python code in, say, NextJS.
NFTs were peak speculation and hype, and this lawsuit feels like a big case of buyers remorse. Someone is upset about losing money and wants to try to pin the blame for their bad bet on the people who facilitated the bet, regardless of how much liability they actually have for selling "bets" like that. My favorite thing about NFTs is how you can own the blockchain address for that NFT, but that doesn't mean there will actually be an NFT there when you load it.

50 years from now, how many NFT links will still work? Compared to a physical print or original painting, I don't consider them robust or timeless...they are tied to a specific technology in a particular era while a properly stored physical work of art will continue to evoke emotion without the need for electricity, even.
For someone who hadn't lived through that era to really understand how valuable a collection of shareware/freeware software on a disk was back then, you have to understand that it was an era of information scarcity.

Nowadays you can easily get your hands on pretty much any software you want in a matter of seconds. Back then, before most people were on the internet, your options were:

- buy it from the local computer store

- buy it from an ad in a computer magazine

- type it in from a program listing in a magazine or a book

- log in to a bulletin board system (BBS) and download it through your modem

- trade some software at a user's group (where you could maybe pick up some Fred Fish disks)

BBS's actually had pretty good collections of software, but the software was scattered over many of them, and Amiga BBS's were relatively rare compared to the legions of PC-centered BBS's.

Fred Fish provided the valuable service of collecting all that freeware for you, so you didn't have to hunt around for it yourself -- all you had to do was get ahold of his disks (of which there were literally hundreds).

Ah Seagate, good memories!

In the 90's they had this policy that you can send them a broken HD and they would replace it with a new one. Since they wouldn't make the old version anymore, the new drive would have more capaciy.

So at first you could just send them your hard drive and you would get an upgraded back.

I was probably not the only one who heard about it, and so they started testing the incoming drives to see if they were really malfunctioning.

I once tried to break such a drive. Formatting the hard drive while bashing it on the table. The thing kept going, no problem.

I actually would prefer to get the second output. The result is wrong, but consistantly and deterministically so. The naive implementation of the broken code is a heisenbug. Sometimes it will work, and sometimes it won't, and any attempt to debug it would likely perterb the system enough to make the issue not surface.

It wouldn't suprise me if I have run into the latter situation without relizing it. When I got the the problem, I would have just (incorrectly) assumed that the memory right after the array happened to have the relevent value. I would be counting my blessings that it happened consistantly enough to be debuggable.
The point of SLS is pork, full stop.
Maybe. My experience is that a lot of the unprimed recall gets weak very quickly without practice. There's irony in testing for skills that a fresh graduate may do better at than someone with substantially more experience.

Primed recall can remain strong for many years, but leetcode often penalizes googling around to refresh your memory, even though that is what almost everyone should do before taking any further steps toward an implementation. Depending, it's often also the correct thing to do before choosing a library, the parameters to a function, code base organization, and lots of other details.

Of course, domain experts may be very strong in their specialty, but that's a special case with narrower scope.

I can hypothesize that testing for a "fast study" may have more predictive power. I have seen some interviews that are designed for this, leetcode adjacent but less antagonistic.

But anyway, I am spitballing, to be real with you.
Without even reading TFA, it is obvious that choosing a Lisp for a DSL is probably at least a good enough choice.
This has elements of truth but is a conspiracy theory the way you describe it. If you listen to Musk, or listen to people who work for Musk, or the people who work for those people, they all say that the point of SpaceX is to enable human colonization of Mars. It's not just a marketing strategy to acquire talent (unless you think they're all lying -- hence the conspiracy aspect.

Now, to do that, they'll need to scratch the government's back. Doesn't mean that Mars isn't priority #1.

I agree about books in that context for the same reasons you list. A description in a book can add so much more context to the description that it can place you in the shoes of the craftsman who made the item on display.

Audio guides are okay for context in some situations but I have found that you end up standing in one place while the narration completes and your group moves on without you. Maybe that's just me. (Ummm, has anyone seen Dad?).

Guided tours are interesting especially when the guide knows the material and wants to present it in ways that encourage the visitors to ask questions.

With asyncio you can run multiple servers/clients/whatever in the same event-loop/thread/process already. Although, I don't understand what this library does at all, I don't think in the asyncio case you would need anything special. I've written tests for multiple distributed applications by using the asyncio approach in a relatively straightforward manner.

From short scans of the papers, at least with Zanzibar, AFAIK you can define entities and relations (think groups of users and directories) and infer rights based on those. I'm assuming Zanzibar backs the actual Goolge 360 document sharing so presumably it would scale for that use-case.

Part of those expenses are probably building starlink and starship r&d. I suspect F9 no longer has significant r&d expenses.

I wonder if your NASA figure also includes first launch, that may include r&d?! Because for a single launch, when you substract r&d or even spread out across all planned launches - can't be that high...

It is looking good! Would be surprised if it doesn't work.
Definitely. There's loads of value delivered by C++ implementations, including implementations of C++ and other languages. The language design of speed over safety mostly imposes a cost in developer / debugging time and fear of upgrading the compiler toolchain. Occasionally it shows up in real world disasters.

I think we've got the balance wrong, partly because some engineering considerations derive directly from separate compilation. ODR no diagnostic required doesn't have to be a thing any more.
