This is a very bold claim.

Because low quality games devalue the brand.

It's often easy to guess which engine a game is made on, because they tend to share certain elements (UI, rendering techniques etc).

If your engine is associated with poor quality games, than high value games may decide to use a different engine.
Doesn't this "logic" apply to literally every product ever? That's not a world I want to live in.
The article says they changed auction rules that had the ultimate effect of increasing ad prices for some advertisers, at certain times, of between 5% and 10%.

Even if that's true, it's still an auction, with real competition and bidding. And it's not only about price, it's also about the quality of the ad and the quality of the advertiser.

Yes, absolutely, if the court can sort through the unfathomably complex layers of rules of real-time ad auctions and show that Google did something illegal, they should be held accountable.

But isn't it bizarre how everyone's so hot and bothered by a possible 5% to 10% swindle, meanwhile:

- Questcor bought the rights to Acthar Gel, which treats infantile spasms, a rare form of childhood epilepsy. Questcor raised the price of a vial from $40 to $23,000.

- Valeant bought diabetes drug Glumetza and raised the price from $800 for a 90-day supply to over $10,000.

Here's an industry that routinely runs 1000% arbitrary price increases, with no competition, while holding people's lives hostage. Seems like we should be far more outraged about that than an unproven, speculative, 5% to 10% issue.
While folks participating in this discourse last year dog days meant all kind of things, Lemoine had a religious notion of sentience, in some non-mainstream religion, iirc something similar to: the world is full of spirits, and they are sentient, and Lamda is sentient that way.
There are other options. They could incentivize old people to move to cheaper places. Why should a Japanese person slave away to support a retiree instead of their own family? Why should an immigrant work to support a Japanese retiree instead of their own family?

This is not true. In 2018 in the US, 66% of new HIV diagnoses were in the transmission category of male-to-male sexual contact:

Before HN jumps all over this, I worked at Google and other ads and search companies... and this is technically true (in selected cases) ! There are certain categories of websites and search results pages, where ads actually improve user experience, measured by nearly any metric you want to pick, from user perception to CTR/conversion, etc.

There's lots of random categories, but the obvious ones are commercial/product searches where you're looking to buy something.

And this isn't new: over history, there've been magazines and other media where the ads dominated the content, e.g. trade publications such as _Computer Shopper_ during the 1980's PC revolution.

I'm really not sure why so many people have a bee in their bonnet about SSO specifically. It's really not that valuable unless you're the sort of entity that is required by compliance goblins to want it, and those are exactly the sort of entities that like to pay for things and get support contracts. It's a fairly obvious choice as an enterprise-only exclusion, along with things like two factor.

What’s deeply weird to me is I see these stats, I see incels complaining about this… but then every time I go to the gas station or grocery store there are plenty of poorly-dressed guys with beer guts and nothing special going on in the face department, with reasonably- or even quite-attractive women.

Like, there’s probably more going on in some cases than meets the eye, but that can’t explain most of them. There are too many.

Instead, it looks like having some traditionally-masculine interests and skills and having your shit together enough to afford payments on a mid-tier pickup truck is kinda all it takes.

Is it a matter of geography and culture? This is a red state, on the boundary of a rural-urban divide. Maybe that’s the difference? But I hear about what people experience on the Internet, then look around when I go outside, and damn, it sure doesn’t look true.

While this is correct, my point was that the experience of the HIV/AIDS seemingly had no impact on our handling of COVID. But Reagan/AIDS, Trump/COVID, is a pretty bleak manifestation of “first as tragedy, then as a farce.”
Have you run any POSIX compliance checks against it? In particular, how are you handling assignment of inode numbers (fileid in NFS speak) to "virtual" files and making sure those stay reasonably consistent? (I vaguely remember this being a bit of a tripwire)

Also did you look at NFSv4 / what made you decide to go with NFSv3? My (superficial) impression was that NFSv4 did a lot of simplifying and throwing out legacy stuff (e.g. rpcbind), but I don't know too many details on this…

[edit: NFSv4 answered on parent / https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37575304 ]

FWIW I think NFSv4 would be a rewrite rather than an extension :D
I was under the impression that a typical theft is more of a grab-and-run. At least all the thefts I’ve witnessed have been that way. So picture not a back alley mugging from the movies but tourists in a crowded area or commuters on public transit, already holding their phones out in front of them.

Show HN: Pg-CLI – Read PG's essays in your terminal
Hacked this [0] together for fun this afternoon, mainly because I wanted to play around with the yargs [1] library to build a simple command line tool.

To read a specific essay (e.g. "Beating the Averages"): `npx pg-essays read avg`

To read a random popular essay: `npx pg-essays read random`

I find that knowing how to pronounce someone's name the moment you see it written gets one a modicum of brownie points. It's worth knowing how to do it.

At an interview one of the people interviewing me went by just the first letter of their very long name but I asked what the full name was, so he showed me his driver's license then I pronounced it correctly on the first attempt. I got the job offer. I can't tell you that it helped or made no difference, since I didn't take the job and never got to ask. But maybe it helped, and it certainly can't have hurt (unless my interviewer felt I was showing off or something, which seems very doubtful).

If you're not sure how to pronounce someone's name, then ask, though I personally would give people brownie points for trying anyways.

Oh, I forgot about the father/bother merger because it is darn-near universal in the US. My mom is from one of the few places in the US that was non-rhotic and had avoided the caught-cot merger[1], thus resulting in "caught" and "cot" not being homophones, but "cot" and "cart" being homophones.

> They enforce this on social media companies by requiring them to have employees on the country's soil in order to take them hostage

Are you suggesting that India requires Facebook to employ people who reside in India in order to operate in India, and that they use those employees as hostages in order to coerce Facebook to succumb to their demands even when when those demands concern communication between non-Indian nationals residing outside of India?

If so, I'd love to hear more about this; do you have any resources?
> The Prime Minister of Canada just did a state visit to India, where he was not warmly received, and made to look foolish on the world stage. So, he has his own political calculations in this affair, and is far from an objective arbiter of truth.

He is also deeply unpopular, sinking in the polls, and facing major public pressure over Canada's housing and cost of living crisis. He also has taken significant criticism for his handling of Chinese foreign interference campaigns.

A cynic might point out that starting a fight with an unpopular foreign government is a great way to distract attention from the government's domestic policy failures.

I think my favorite part of this thread is the people replying saying "I did a report on this, click to listen to my podcast or watch my video". One wonders why they chose those particular media for sharing their story, rather than just replying inline or writing an article. Could it be that they want people to watch higher cost ads? "Google is terrible for having ads! Please come watch my ads." deserves at least a little bit of an eye roll.

Actually, Facebook is playing it smart.

Canada has less than 40 million total people. If Facebook completely exited Canada and banned all Canadians from Facebook, it wouldn’t be all that big of a deal.

India on the other hand has over a billion people.

NFSv4 is quite a bit more complicated and is also stateful which makes it a bit more challenging to implement. NFSv3 is a good starting point, and is still supported on all the major platforms. Certainly, extending with a v4 implementation would be great future work.

Only men can fix men.

But if women want to help, they will need to be respectful and caring and devoted and deferential and other things that feminism frowns upon.

It looks to me that men and women are going in different directions. And unless that changes there will be a substantial demographic meltdown within the next two generations.

In many species, what brings the sexes together is only necessity and coercion. Take that away and the species would disappear. Maybe humans are headed that way.

The paper “Graph Neural Networks Tend to Overfit the Graph Structure” provides a significant contribution to the field of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) by highlighting the issue of overfitting to the graph structure. This overfitting phenomenon can lead to reduced performance, especially when the graph structure is non-informative or irrelevant to the task at hand. To address this issue, the authors propose a graph-editing method called R-COV, which aims to reduce the coefficient of variation (COV) of a given graph, making it more similar to regular graphs.

This research aligns with other studies in the field that have also addressed the issue of overfitting in GNNs. For instance, the paper “Overfitting Mechanism and Avoidance in Deep Neural Networks” discusses the problem of overfitting in deep neural networks and proposes a consensus-based classification algorithm to address this issue. This algorithm identifies consistently classified samples and rejects samples that are classified randomly, which can help avoid overfitting even with a small number of training samples.

Another relevant study is “Neighborhood Random Walk Graph Sampling for Regularized Bayesian Graph Convolutional Neural Networks,” which proposes a Bayesian Graph Convolutional Neural Network (BGCN) that accounts for uncertainty in the graph structure and reduces overfitting. The BGCN model utilizes a neighborhood random walk-based graph sampling method to sample nodes from the observed graph, improving sampling efficiency and diversifying connections between nodes.

The paper “Training Graph Neural Networks by Graphon Estimation” also proposes a method for training GNNs that mitigates the issues of overfitting and over-smoothing. This method involves resampling the adjacency matrix of the graph from a graphon estimate obtained from the underlying network data. By resampling the adjacency matrix, the method provides data augmentation and introduces randomness to the GNN training process, which helps alleviate overfitting and over-smoothing.

Finally, the paper “Eigen-GNN: A Graph Structure Preserving Plug-in for GNNs” proposes the Eigen-GNN module to enhance GNNs’ ability to preserve graph structures by integrating the eigenspace of graph structures with GNNs. This approach significantly improves the preservation of graph structures and consistently outperforms existing GNNs in structure-driven tasks.

> There haven't been any major releases since 2018, though. Since their development process is closed, I am wondering when/if are we going to see MySQL 9 (if it's anything like 8, it's going to be huge).

MySQL since 8.0 is on a "rolling release" model, where features were shipped as part of 8.0 once they were finished instead of waiting for a 9.0 release. Thus 8.0 got quite a few improvements since 8.0.0.

Recently they announced a new model where they split LTS style versions and increase version number, again, but features still appear as they are done and not for a big release:

Doesn't your argument apply to classical bits too? The more interconnected a classical bit is, the more parasitic coupling it will experience. That used to be an argument used against the feasibility of classical computers in the 40s (until von Neumann published work on fault tolerant classical computing).

Both classical and quantum computers (1) can not "scale" without error correction because of analog noise (although it is less crucial on the classical side), but (2) can be build with error correction codes integrated in them to overcome that noise.

Also, you do not need all-to-all connectivity between your qubits (or bits) to build a scalable quantum (or classical) computer.

Edit: To add to your FM radio metaphor: you can have way more FM radio channels if each channel is on a separate coax cable (or in physics speak, if you multiplex not only by frequency but by spacial mode). No need to have all your qubits be controlled by the same optical or microwave mode, you can have physically separate control lines for each qubit and then eliminating cross-talk is as simple as inverting an n-by-n matrix.
