Analyzing New Unique Identifier Formats (UUIDv6, UUIDv7, and UUIDv8) (2022)

That's not a useful definition of "made to do so" though anymore more than your parents upbringing "made you to do" anything you ever decide to do.
As DMARC relies on the RFC5322.From address, omitting it will lead to errors. To avoid these errors, emails lacking this address are currently being ignored.
I think that’s why they have a commercial offering
Very cool!

It blows my mind though how the moment that someone offers free stuff, the first comments are people asking for more free stuff.

If I wasn't paid to work full time on open source software, I'd think very carefully about whether to do any open source work nowadays.

> Having just count=0 is stupid and you will learn it the same way as Svelte did.

I obviously disagree. This is not only compact, but also standards- based. It's an ES6 variable. I don't expect Nue to change here, like ever. Svelte internals are quite different.
I made a similar observation some time ago, so let me add this: human interactions in general don't scale. Social media easily turns completely normal human interactions into something perverse.

Eg, say you've just exited to the cinema and vent to your friend that this movie sucked. What were they thinking? Who had the brilliant idea to change directors mid trilogy? There's a bit of venting, but quickly things settle down. There's a bit of bonding over the shared experience. Nobody is hurt, you're just having a private talk with your friend.

Take that to Twitter, use the same words, and now the same thing is an addition to the torrent of hate aimed at the movie's director. You might have meant to reach your 10 followers, but search, recommendations, hashtags, retweets, etc can easily pull your statement out of its intended context.

Then there's what it must be like to end up on the other side of that. This happens organically, people aren't organizing around it for the most part. So the torrent of hate can regain its strength at random, wherever some person posts about it 3 years later, it makes #2 in some countdown on Youtube, comes up on the top of AskReddit, etc. In real life most things settle down, the Internet allows rehashing old stuff effectively forever.

And I think human interaction breaks at those scales. A single person can't meaningfully interact with a million random people which mostly spontaneously decided to flood you with messages. You can ask a prominent one or two to leave you alone, but more can show up at any time.
That would be the same as using a random identifier (UUIDv4, for example) with the associated indexing issues when stored in a database.

The whole point here would be that you can expose something opaque externally but benefit from well behaved index keys internally.

Curious on the preference there, especially when characters in base64url encoding can look similar/ambiguous in some fonts.

Engagement is a really poor proxy for value.

I've had an awful lot of engagement that's produced little value. (As I get older, I try to avoid that, increasingly. Not always successfully.)

I've had tremendous value from some very brief engagements, often one-liners or casual remarks, though also when someone shares a deep knowledge of a subject or a truly insightful personal experience.

Those are all exceptionally valuable, but in terms of "engagement metrics" such as replies, time-on-site, etc., they're often negatives. To turn a phrase: feed a person endless questions and challenges, and you'll keep them on site for a day. Provide them the answer or tools they need, and they disappear forever.

(Dating / matchmaking sites face a related version of this problem.)

With time, people who do value useful information come to realise the timesuck nature of high-engagement, low-value sites (o hai redditz) and avoid them like the plague.

Side observation: I'm playing with FastGPT (largely because it doesn't require registration to use, so I can't compare it to ChatGPT or other registration-required generative AIs), and one of the things that's useful about it is that it gives specific answers to specific questions, rather than sending me off on an endless quest through low-grade online sources.

Or even relatively high-grade ones such as Wikipedia, which might answer the immediate question but tend to prompt more. Curiosity ain't necessarily bad, except for cats....

What generative AI does that General Web Search does not is actually quench the thirst. Which is useful from a personal value perspective, though possibly a shock to the system for both online search and content providers.
Quite frankly they're all bastards and we should stop using all of them.
I wonder if identities is why some people feel insulted over mere remarks? If your identity includes "I am competent, I don't make mistakes unlike those other guys..." then code reviews really hurts. But if you don't have that as an identity you will do just fine.

Feels like we spent a lot more time breaking down such delusional identities in the past, but today we spend so much effort trying to keep them alive.

> Well that was anticlimactic

Agreed. I was mildly excited when you promised slurs, disappointed that you had none - insults are considered an artform here.

> and in five years down under no Australian ever dared to use it against me

It's regional, in some parts of Australia it's as common as "Yank", elsewhere you'll never hear it <shrug>.

> it's just pussy keyboard warriors who break it out.

Again, if you're going to throw slurs they actually have to have some bite that'll stick.

Still, no hard feelings, have an upvote for participation, and hopefully I catch any reply you make, it was only by chance I saw "the S-word" on newcomments and followed up on it.
Let's flip that point around. Why does anybody think it is reasonable that an insurance company be privy to a driver's point history?

The only weak argument that can be made is that "David" is a "danger" on the road because he drives too fast, and therefore, is bound to crash his car eventually. Which would "warrant" a higher insurance premium.

But the fact is that, if "David" was accident-prone, he would already be penalized by his malus.

So now he is being charged extra beforehand, for an accident he didn't commit, just because the insurance company can. In a way, it reminds me of Minority Report..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter-gatherer

> Researchers Gurven and Kaplan have estimated that around 57% of hunter-gatherers reach the age of 15. Of those that reach 15 years of age, 64% continue to live to or past the age of 45. This places the life expectancy between 21 and 37 years.[54] They further estimate that 70% of deaths are due to diseases of some kind, 20% of deaths come from violence or accidents and 10% are due to degenerative diseases.
Whataboutism at its finest people!

They're all horrible. We know that. But this is about one particular country in context.
I wouldn't count those comments as asking for more free stuff. I would think of them as feature requests, ideas, suggestions. Whether or not to implement them is totally up to the author, and the author could charge for those if they decide to implement it.
Nice comment! Could you please provide a few more details about what you mean exactly?
for those that don't want skip the oobe experience and have to bring up the commandline, you can literally just go to the sign in screen, tell it you want it to join a domain, it doesn't actually join the domain at that point, it creates a local account, and after windows is up and running offers joining a domain.

A hash is not reversible, so you’d need a database index to recover the original efficient-to-index identifier, which misses the whole point ;)

If you didn’t care about index clustering then just use UUIDv4
There is still an open issue in VeraCrypt (https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/136) because of which BitLocker is much faster on SSDs then VeraCrypt... But if you don't need those speads, VeraCrypt is still great...
Interesting you bring probability up. Nobody knows where these probabilities come from -- we know how to calculate it and make predictions for sure, but we don't know where they fundamentally come from.

That said, even though you say materialism permits pretty much anything, the probabilities are supposed to be radically different. Materialism predicts that "Jesus" is practically impossible, and some versions of idealism suggests it is a dime a dozen. It seems reality is probably somewhere in between.

My personal theory is that the universe pretends as if it is materialistic by fudging with probabilities. (and also with limits of computations in the sense that if you can't practically solve a computation problem the answer may not actually exist in the same sense as observable limits you mentioned)
> > Someone using a massive platform (fame) to spread a message that they may not fully buy into but is for the greater good isn't a terrible thing.

Holy hell this thing is awesome. I am incredibly surprised at how little code it took to achieve a MVP on this. Adding this to local docker image would make doing so many things easier during testing and local dev.

Having it on CI actions would also be amazing.
> What is it that you think prometheus offers over other solutions?

I like Prometheus and think this is a great piece of software. But even if we won't go into actual details, Prometheus is baked in into Kubernetes monitoring [0]. That's the first monitoring system young engineers will meet with when learning k8s. Although, k8s and Prometheus are both CNCF projects which means both of them will be promoted in synergy with each other.

> It is more likely that the younger engineer is going to learn that companies don't care about what is popular on HN.

This is not what I think younger engineers do :)

If the version bits were up front, then switching to a hypothetical UUIDv8 in several years would be guaranteed to break the sortability. So I see that decision as a bit of future proofing.
Called it. A group no one had ever heard of before, suddenly gets widespread media coverage just a week after their website is created. There are way too many groups trying to manipulate democracy through bad-faith marketing campaigns, using the media to spread their talking points and feed an illusion of popularity for unpopular decisions.

It's not billionaires trying to manipulate public opinion and media, it's an NGO, a grassroots initiative, the people's voice! Deep, vigorous involvement of civil society (billionaire-funded NGOs) is essential to any free country! What a fucking scam.
> In other words, if dark matter didn't interact with/through the Higgs field, it wouldn't explain the observational anomalies

That conclusion seems premature to me. Not only because we lack a quantum theory of gravity but also because (classical) gravity doesn't care where your particle' mass comes from. Heck, it mostly looks at your particle's total energy (mass + kinetic energy + addition d.o.f.) to determine how spacetime should curve.

Besides, as the sibling pointed out, the Higgs mechanism is only responsible for generating the mass of the W± and Z bosons. Other masses are unaccounted for and have nothing to do with the Higgs.
Yeah, once the traffic is large it does make sense to have own compute
Great website, really appreciate the effort.

I once asked the developers about this and they did not seem to understand what the point of a TPM even is, unfortunately.
He has been penalized, he has 3 points. People with 3 points are more likely to get more points than someone with no points, statistics like these are the way that insurance companies make money.
I think you are insane for this take. It should be very clear from a cursory glance what is reactive and what is not if you want your code to not become spaghetti rapidly.

Signals w/ getter/setter are incredibly nice for this.

New doesn't mean exciting. Programming languages are boring – even new ones. If you see a programming language attracting a lot of excitement, beware, but otherwise whatever you're comfortable with will be fine.

I've wondered who might have had a similar experience prior to widespread social media.

I suspect broadcasters and columnists for newspapers and magazines might have --- they would flip out a few hundred or thousand words of copy, or make a statement live on air, and start hearing back from people. In the broadcast case the response time might be comparable to the online experience --- seconds to hours or days. In print a piece might not hit the streets for days or weeks, giving a delayed hit.

But there's still the experience of writing up something in what's putatively a private space (office or home), without the immediate sense of ten thousand eyeballs, but knowing intellectually that that actually is the case.

(Do I dare hit "reply" now? ...)

Does it? The system for categorizing notification does exist on android, but it's not enforced in any way by Google on the Play Store so most devs ignore it - do you take an issue with anything I said?
One benefit of an epoch is that it's easily readable (or comparable, at the very least). I am not sure I can read epoch in hexadecimal format though.
Smoother to use and simpler, but it's missing features when it comes to running long queries where you want to break it up into several so it does not timeout.

I believe, that when people learn programming mainly from LLMs, they will navigate themselves into a corner faster than with regular learning. i.e. they learn anti-patters and won't be able to get out of they local optimum.

On the other hand: that's happening today already en masse, so I am not sure if it can actually get worse.

I agree, that LLMs as an addition to the established resources (teachers, books, youtubers, etc.) will have lots of value.

NAA, but I think what you’re missing is that this Venus statue is something a single person can carve on their own time, anywhere.

Carving a 2-ton statue in-place requires much better and larger tools, and some kind of social organization that values that activity and protects the site.
Resting and common time off work for community building is crucial. That's the core reason behind designated rest days in any major religion. And yes, it is specifically for the benefit of mankind.

When you cross the state border, the customs officer will ask you to unlock your laptop. In addition, you are reliably informed that this requirement is legal for the country whose border you are crossing. What do you do?

Another example: when threatening to kill your relative, you are asked for your password. What do you do?

Of course, you'll give me the password. It may cause some damage to you or the company, but you won't be the malicious party.

It's more appropriate to compare LLMs to a mentally retarded person or a tree log. Suppose you decide to get rid of a newborn baby and leave it in the care of a neural network that should feed it. Or in the care of a mentally ill person. Or in the care of a log. Eventually the child starves to death and who's to blame? AI? Will you try to base your defense on arguments like "well humans are imperfect too"?

I couldn't care less where my item is produced. It just so happens that a large variety of high-end products are produced at a higher level of quality (and cost, generally) in the West (including S Korea and Japan); but if someone introduced me to a Nigerian, Mexican, Thai, etc product that surpassed my current choice, I would switch in an instant.

I don't understand caring at all about the source, unless there is some fundamental moral hangup with it (such as blood diamonds, for instance).
The main use case is for subviewports - nodes which contain a scene tree but aren't rendered with the main window, instead you grab a texture from the viewport and can display that how you like, as a mesh texture or as a sprite/texture rect, input to a shader, etc (similar to render textures in unity). You can apply a World resource to the subviewport (the default is, I believe, for them to have their own worlds), and that ensures that they are treated entirely separately from the main viewport's children and will only collide with things and be lit by objects in the subviewport. But, that may not be desired - you may want to use a subviewport to render certain objects and then apply post-processing only to those objects, but otherwise treat them like objects in the main scene - in that case you can have the subviewport share the same World as the main viewport, causing objects inside and outside of the subviewport to interact.

Similarly, there are often gameplay reasons you may want to separate physics/lighting for particular objects, and maybe even have several "spaces" in which objects can interact that you want to swap out at runtime. Stealth games where shadows are important to the gameplay, or games that have an "inner" and an "outer" in terms of physics (maybe a car in the world, and then objects inside the car in their own inner world that maybe obey slightly different physics parameters, for example).

I seem to remember a product like this that turned out to be mostly vapour ware.

It was a watch that would project onto your arm.

https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2018/4/27/17289572/l...

Edit: Huh, I think this is their product actually: https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/30/humanes-ai-pin-debuts-on-t...

So it's a pin on your chest that will project into your hand.

This sounds almost identical to what the watch tried to do... except exponentially more difficult.

1. It needs to be significantly lighter weight

2. It needs to project significantly further away.

3. It needs to identify the hand only when it is "ready" to be projected on, then aim at it.

This alone would present major issues I think.
Honestly the only code base I've seen which does this is Google's Chromium stuff; by default, it will download a pre-built Clang as well as a Debian sysroot. IMO, it's completely insane and has always been a giant pain in the ass. Maybe it's warranted for something as complex as Chromium but I really don't think it's the right choice for some 10kLOC FOSS project.
