> an interactive language - one where code is often run immediately after writing

Sorry if I'm ignorant, but I thought the term interactive language usually referred to languages where the code was run and modified in real time, while it is running, as in Smalltalk or Self, using something akin to Erlang's hot reload capabilities?[1] I think the viewpoint in that paradigm is to "cut out the middleman" of having a UI altogether, and to treat code as the UI, effectively

It feels like the author is describing interactive languages in the sense of IPython or REPL based programming, unless I pretty badly misunderstood. I was interested because I am in the process of writing a baby Smalltalk, although nowhere near as sophisticated as what the author seems to be building, I'm just starting with learning this stuff. I still enjoyed reading though

No, the point of the PoW is only to mitigate DDoS and it can do that.
Fortunately most dirt is an excellent filter for septic waste. The law requires 40 (double check this number for where you live) of distance between a septic system and a well because at that distance the water that gets through is safe to drink without any more treatment. It doesn't matter how bad your septic system is installed, the 40 feet distance makes it safe.

Note that I said most dirt above. There are types of soil that act more like pipes and so raw sewage from a leaking septic system has been found many miles away. Check with a local expert to see what soil you have to deal with.

If functions are higher order then the distinction between plain functions and closures is retained (unless you treat all functions as closures). This is because the data needs to be passed around in the function pointer. If not higher order then yes, they desugar

Implementing these things is maybe easy for you ;) but for myself, doing it well, I would definitely not describe as a walk in the park
This is great, we've built eerily similar tooling for our internal projects. Unfortunately, in our experiments with OpenAI chat completions, the "reproducible" part has proven to just not be possible. There's nothing more frustrating than spending an hour debugging your chain, only to realize a binary classification prompt has decided to flip after hundreds of consistent executions!
Precisely. HN's posters aren't any more sophisticated than other forums. It's simply that polarizing topics like current affairs and politics are essentially banned here. Because other forums do not ban them, they have to have rules about not abusing other members, doxxing etc.

The commentariat's genteel reputation also evaporates once you step into the "political" threads HN does allow, namely immigration, outsourcing and of course, crime in San Francisco.

A former head of state in Ycombinator's home country is headed to trial, and a coup plotter in the world's current largest military conflict is apparently dead. Both of these are historic events, but you'd never know that on HN.

Isn't this all based off self-attestation? There is no comprehensive audit of their research data and finances I am aware of. If I was OpenAI and blew millions of dollars training models that showed exponentially worse performance for incrementally more resources expended training the model, my next step would not be to publish about it.
State monad as a first class language construct might help? You could allow actual mutations inside that and therefore if a lot of computation needs doing it could be more efficient.

Not only exist, but sell at higher quantities then they ever had. When you need near absolute faith in archived data there's not much else that competes. Longer expected life then drives by close to an order of magnitude.
Thanks for the explanation. I wonder if you can detect integrity issues in the insulation instead and use that to shut down the system instead.
If so, why not state 100:1 compression on the canonical FF*N data set.
A spinlock can be conditionally faster than a lock with uses futex, but it doesn't scale. Futex is really meant to provide an efficient way to block and unblock threads. One could use FUTEX_LOCK_PI to have it actually implement a lock, but that's a separate argument/edge-case.
The reef is being dominated by a few species without lasting power to stay through turbulent ocean activity based on the report. This may not work out of the long term, and it's too soon to tell.

This has nothing to do with what's fair - you can't "both sides" something we have direct and increasing evidence of.

This isn't caused by some Jewish space lasers, experimental military weaponry, or whatever additional conspiracy you're implying.
The issue isn't about propaganda itself, and more that it's hard for anyone to keep up with a fickle audience.

Even a "pure entertainment" product that doesn't need to do any particular ideological heavy lifting has a hard time. If you're taping an episode of a sitcom today, the language you use might have passed to "cringy" by the time it airs, and the trend you used as a plot device might have fizzled.

Social media's ability to stay relevant is managed by constantly eating its own-- people fall in and out of trend. That makes it harder to use as a means to inject a specific message; you'd need to be constantly generating new users and getting them into closed circle communities as the old ones wear out their usefulness. Note I don't say impossible, but it's an interesting set of challenges and probably pretty different from the ones the guys running Radio Havana face.
> If you score a 2400 but search for colleges that accept 1600

But most people won't be doing that. For most people, it'll send their actual scores most of the time.

Saying that "they don't send your actual score" is the kind of sophistry that's technically correct but also wildly inaccurate in actual cases.
Dystopian is not always imaginative, however most of the time people assume it is. It's just a negative adjective.

Fortunately Factorio is the kind of game where nobody has the right to tell you how you're supposed to play. I'm sure if this change makes it to 2.0 (heck maybe even during an open beta, which I'm sure will drop at some point), there will be a mod that reshuffles the tech tree. You can also always tweak the mapgen parameters for Nauvis to produce less cliffs, or use a console command.

Some of these will disable achievements, but anyway, the true achievement in this game is simply the number of hours you sunk in ;)
If you seriously think C is THE best programming language you should simply be banned from writing code. Seriously. C is completely memory unsafe, all languages which are memory safe surpass it by default.
That's all fine and good, but many patients can only have so many C-Sections without complications. It isn't universal, and maybe it comes down to the doctor that did the C-Section in the first place, but its an invasive procedure to optimize the time it takes to deliver and not (usually) to optimize the health of the baby and mother.

I'm all for medically necessary procedures, but here in America, so many procedures are not medically necessary, they are there for optimizing the bottom line of the for-profit medicine-industrial-complex.
Where can I read up on this? AFAIK PGO is used in lieu of various heuristics within a pass, but is not used to remove optimization passes on “dead code”.
If you're interested in algebraic topology to do topological data analysis, I wrote a series of blog posts about it that I believe is quite accessible even to those with limited math backgrounds: http://outlace.com/TDApart1.html

> Referrals are also not a golden ticket right now.

They were never a "golden ticket." Results are never guaranteed, but some approaches (blindly applying online to job ads) are inferior.

My point stands that the parent's approach is flawed. Current supply-demand doesn't explain why parent has only gotten 1-2% responses (not even interviews?) in the course of 5+ months (since March 2023).

The parent's comment implies they applied to at least 50 jobs (maybe 100+?). My assumption is that the bulk (all?) of these were non-referred applications, yet, parent has 10+ years of experience and should be exhausting their network for referrals.
> Isolate people, and they quickly develop their own dialect.

Are you sure of that? I think the absence of external communication would make a language more conservative.

I don't think the compile times of Go can be even compared with Rust or any major compiled language.

It does compile extremely quickly; Rust on the other end lies completely opposite on that spectrum IMO.

Although, both languages are "modern", both have their pros & cons.

Although this may sound like a pink elephant, but I would really want something that has the guard-rails, expresiveness & performance of Rust with the simplicity & compile-time speed of Go.
Exactly.

I guess if we can track moderator actions we can automate them too ;)
Especially if you backup encrypted data (which isn't unusual - to have data encrypted at rest) you will have a compression ratio of 100% or even more (metadata of the compression needs to be stored too)
Asking what is the oldest language is like asking what is the oldest species. The question is meaningless.
> I honestly am not looking forward to the enemy expansion they are going to add.

I have the same trepidation in DSP, and I'm hoping they at least take the same tack as Factorio and allow enemies to be turned off entirely. While there is a little bit of fun in trying to design self-sustaining defense lines in Factorio, I never found that enjoyment worth the effort of having to clear out the enemies to build ever-larger factories.

Well, except for Clusterio Gridlock event. In that event, given that you were starting the map with 40x mining productivity and similar bonuses, and were playing with 100+ other people, giving you awkward map layouts with high enemy growth was just about the only way to make it interesting.
That is why I compared it to Latin. It sees steady liturgical use, and in some pockets, children are still raised to understand it in Church, along with spoken revival groups. That is to say, Latin is dead.
I think what zirgs meant is that since at least one group of humans developed a language, it makes sense that different groups of humans could also independently develop language.

Maybe because plain capitalism in regular reality is pretty dystopian. Nothing imaginary about it.

> Swiss German

If we go a few hundred years or so it would’ve been considered a language as much as any other German “dialect”. But somebody decided to pick another dialect to be the “standard German” language.

Same applies to France and Italy. Especially when some northern Italian “dialect” are actually more closely related to “French” and some southern “French” ones to Catalan.

Just like for instance Dutch interestingly enough is closer to Franconian than to Frisian.
Interviewing for when the interviewing is expecting an array (sarcasm intended).

All kidding aside, unless I'm interviewing at an Elixir shop, I've learned that Elixir is a little too weird for interviewers who don't know Elixir very well.
Why is that odd? It's too specialized (and too many updates) to have his updates on the rust blog.
Yes, but how do they know where we are in that growth phase? If you confidently tell me that "GPT-4 is the plateau," I want to know how you know that, specifically. "Well, because all deep learning technologies eventually slow down" is not a good argument. You need to show me the diminishing returns, or give me a good theoretical argument for why we're reaching them.
From the abstract:

This mass self-censorship has created pluralistic ignorance that enables science leaders to continue to strive for tribal status by signaling their progressive bona fides

Ironically, this sounds to me like an author trying to exert their conservative bona fides, and not much like a serious consideration of the uses and mis-uses of science in politics.

The exception groups wrap multiple tasks. Each task can throw one exception. The group is capable of catching all of them. Before with asyncio, it would exit on first exception.

All of the chromosomes have difficult bits in them. The Y chromosome in particular has huge sections that are difficult.

By difficult, imagine a jigsaw puzzle. Difficult bits in the jigsaw puzzle are where you have the same sub-image repeated over and over again, or where the same image section is repeatedly scattered over the wider image. Puzzle pieces from these bits are difficult because you can't tell which part of the image such a small puzzle piece comes from, because it matches multiple places. It's technically impossible to resolve repetitive features where the repeating unit is larger than the pieces you are trying to assemble together. Modern technology gives us long read sequencing, where sequenced sections of DNA may be up to 100kbp or larger (maybe up to a 1Mbp), where older sequencing methods (that are still heavily used because they are cheaper) give us sequenced sections of DNA between 100-300bp long. (bp stands for base-pairs - one of [ACGT].) These larger puzzle pieces allowed the whole picture to be assembled without ambiguity.

However, this isn't why the Y chromosome was solved last. The reason for this is that the other chromosomes were analysed using a completely homozygous hydatidiform mole, which is where cells generate two copies of their entire genome from just one copy during conception, and therefore the two copies are identical. It makes the sequencing a lot easier if you don't have to deal with having two copies of the DNA that are slightly different. The side-effect of that is the hydatidiform mole doesn't have a Y chromosome, so they had to analyse a different sample later on to get a Y chromosome.
I'm a fan of the Alone series on the History channel. Contestants are dropped off in a remote location and have to survive on their own with minimal gear. All of them are highly trained in hunting, wilderness survival, etc. but only the best (and luckiest) make it past two months.

Humans are not meant to live alone. Even a small group could divide the labor and survive orders of magnitudes longer than a single individual. The most important survival gear is family and community.

Sure you can speed it up: get something else to decay neutrons, protons or alpha particles, on to it.

An atomic bomb is when you convince a lot of Uranium-235 or Plutonium to decay all at once in an uncontrolled way.

A nuclear reactor is what happens when you convince material to decay at a controllable rate.

It's way more complex than that but you can look up the rest, e.g. "Nuclear chain reaction".

Where I think you're going with this is

https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/594598/destroyin...

tl;dr: it's more trouble than it's worth, since you need radioactive materials as the neutrons sources, and stray neutrons tend to bump into other matter and cause yet more radioactive waste.

Ask HN: Does the term SEO make you cringe?
I keep hearing clients say their top priority and strategy is to improve their SEO. Like that’s their plan. In the year 2023 does anyone make a few adjustments to their html and gain big organic traffic? It just feels to me like a silly strategy. If your business is hoping for this miracle isn’t there something wrong with your plan?
Yeah, it’s generally the inverse from what they are saying. Isolated groups retain the old form of the language for much longer.

e.g. Romansh or even Basque.
Maybe I've seen too many movies, but I'm going to remain doubtful until I've seen the body.

Not that it matters all that much, I suppose. The world is probably slightly better off without one terrible person, but the organization that they used to exert their terrible goals is still in place.
The simultaneous nigh-unavoidable impulse toward creation (which takes some months, of course) coupled with body horror and more than a little revulsion, and sudden, transformative “birth” at the end (the monster isn’t intolerably, fundamentally, stomach-turningly repulsive until that spark of life enters it) is rather on the nose. It’s a man giving birth, more or less, and parental responsibility (which he whiffs at—he can’t tolerate the monster, especially at first, either) of a sort follows. Given that, and that particularly fatherhood-connected motifs and themes are not strong in the book, I think one would have to justify all that not having having to do with motherhood.

Given the author’s bio and stuff like her mom dying from giving birth to her, yeah, I’d say it’s there. A very particular point of view and concern with it, not exactly “ain’t pregnancy and motherhood beautiful?”, yes, but it’s there. “Death of the author”, sure, but it’s there in the book even if you don’t know Shelley’s bio.
Yes, if your mom is also an Eppie user. Which she can be. It’s as simple as any other email client.
Depends where you are... Some countries only value money and profits.

My biggest question with this article is why the College Board needs to/is allowed to advertise. They're ostensibly a nonprofit that has a captive audience in the form of basically every US high school student who's even considering college.
