More specifically, using mixed integer linear programming.

I've never seen an MILP used this way, to characterize the entire feasible set (or "solution pool"). Is this one of the fastest ways to do so? The usual branch-and-bound type methods won't apply, since the solver has to enumerate every feasible solution.

The CPLEX docs (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/icos/22.1.1?topic=solutions-how-...) mention the potential slowness and also the numerical issues the author faces in the article.

I think some older than me may remember differently, but I'm slightly older than you and I'd actually say I think for people who could afford computers there weren't that many years between getting their first CD-ROM equipped computer and their first CD Audio player.

It was within a year or two in my family, and my father was in the computer/internet industry by the mid-80s so had access to stuff pretty early. I think we got our first CD audio player in the family in 1990 and got a 486 with a CD-rom drive in late 1992.

CD Audio was expensive at first too.
The generic solutions are cheaper and more flexible, while the special all-included one is more user-friendly and can be better-optimized. It's similar with other products.

Does it not just start a new Doom workspace for the new frame? I’m curious because I use Doom workspaces a lot and might consider setting EDITOR=emacsclient
Great find, thanks!

It didn't seem like any of your links was to a playable version, so I had a Goog' and a paste and came up with [1]. Pretty impressive game for that amount of code, I'd say.

I've never written a line of code on an actual MSX machine (even though I was around in the 80s), it's kind of amazing the amount of emulation Magic Power we casually throw around, these days. Massive thanks to all the emulation authors and (of course) retro computer archivists.

Edit: typo, more compliments.

> This used to be the standard keyboard layout in the Netherlands, but at some point (seemingly, during the late ’90s), it was abandoned in favor of the English (US international) layout, laid on top of ISO keyboards (although ANSI units are a common sight and ANSISO models can be spotted every now and then). Worse, the keyboards commonly sold in that country print the legends for the regular English (USA) layout, with the only addition of the euro sign (€) on the bottom-right corner of the 5 % keycap. Why aren’t the rest of the tertiary (AltGr) and quaternary (AltGr‑Shift) layer assignments printed is a mystery, but cost-saving and laziness are quite probably to blame.

I assume it’s because:

1) those symbols are rarely used in the Dutch language, so there’s no need to label them

2) pre-euro keyboards were presumably simply US keyboards (IIRC guilders were simply denoted by ‘fl.’). With the introduction of the euro, there came a need to type its associated symbol, which then led to the € symbol being printed on the 5 key (and AltGr being printed on the right Alt key).

That's a very level headed approach. But I wonder if the US would be more like India where kids kill themselves over college admission scores because since college is free, everything you can do in life depends on it.

Personally, I like free college but only for very specific degrees where is demand and having a degree makes sense. Like IT shouldn't be free but medicine or law should, because you can learn IT on the job and it is more close to a trade you can apprentice in. Where apprenticing or learning on the job makes sense, degrees should not be subsidized and pursuits like philosophy where there isn't any economic demand for the degree should be paid by the student.
>could you test the blood of an unconscious person?

If that person is unconscious and suspected of drunk driving, yes. The US Supreme Court ruled that the 4th doesn't prevent that search in Mitchell vs. Wisconsin.

However, if that person is conscious, implied consent does not allow officers to force a blood test without a warrant (Birchfield v. North Dakota).

Hi! I have been working 12+ years in software engineering and 5+ years in Elixir; Focus on backend and systems development.
I've been remote for 7+ years.

I would describe myself as an engineer with a product and business sense.

My experience spans multiple sectors, including enterprise software, staffing solutions, and most recently, financial technology in the realm of payments.

One of my roles was as a team lead in a (later) YC backed startup.

My preference is to continue to work primarily with Elixir, though I'm open to explore other opportunities.

I would love to explore how I can add value to your project, let's talk!

Situations such as?

Sometimes editing wants to go inside clusters but that's not code-point based either.

I'd say that in a big majority of situations, code that is indexing an array with code points is either treating the indexes as opaque pointers or is doing something wrong.
Thanks for correcting my spelling :)

... and my accent <_<

I pronounce "Bordeaux" like in "eaux" but I guess I haven't heard it pronounced very often. I grew up in Greece and I speak French from an early age and haven't lived long in France so there's nuances I miss probably.
The math gets a bit weirder if you think the country whose currency you're stockpiling may cease to exist. Obviously that's extreme, but I can understand those thinking about it these days - the US doesn't really seem to be in the business of solving problems anymore.

This story is fascinating, weird, and entertaining. But most surprisingly, I found it kind of uplifting and inspirational! Not what I expected from a story so intertwined with a major corporate brand and their marketing agencies.
> Just as daft as the extra-US sites that choose to show no content to EU geolocated origins instead of complying with the law. Which is... also illegal under the letter of the law

Since when? The GDPR explicitly only applies if you offer your shit to EU subjects or monitor EU subject behavior while they're in the EU. By actively rejecting those potential customers and not tracking them (because you refuse to provide them the product), does that not suffice to not have to worry about the rest of the terms?

I know there are a few cases regarding linking to news articles and how the company in question can't stop providing that service, but in all such cases I'm aware of the offending company had other ties to the EU whereby the GDPR might have been enforceable.
The Amigas are (mostly) Commodore computers. Maybe you meant Atari, its main competitor. And speaking of music, the Atari ST was also very popular not because of its sound, but because it had built-in, very low latency MIDI.

I think they are so popular because so many kids grew up with C64s, it was both a game console and a "serious" computer. So now, they attract both retro-gamers and programmers who learned on these machines. PCs and Macs were mostly work computers, more expensive and mostly for grownups, so less nostalgia, the ZX Spectrum wasn't great IIRC. The Amiga 500 and Atari ST still have a lot of followers, maybe that they had to share the space made them individually less popular than the C64.
To me, the main reason to avoid obscurity in naming or numbering things, or even in code - rather than view it as a modest addendum to security - is to force yourself to do the mental exercise of what happens when that obscurity is lost.

Not doing that is how small companies seem to get away with terrible security holes for a long time, until suddenly they don't. I've seen too many cases of companies in a position where they built a small, insecure service that's now getting shared more widely than envisioned, who don't want to spend the money to make it right, because no one has compromised it yet (that they know of), and what are the chances of someone stumbling across it - where even pointing out that it's an attack vector can earn you trouble.
Right? The guy never caught a break from persecution.

However wacky he became, Reich was one of the few in psychiatry to focus on prevention over treatment of mental illness. When he investigated the root causes of mental illness in his patients, he saw the conditions of modern life were often the source of the harm. He advocated a radical re-engineering of society so that it meets people's fundamental social, spiritual, and organismic needs.

He saw fascism as a symptom of structural failures to meet these needs. Fascism is not so much an authoritarian political movement as mass mental illness. His model suggests that in such circumstances you'd see disordered thinking across the political spectrum. People's tolerance for ambiguity diminishes, tribalism increases, and we grasp at simple solutions. This flailing fails to address the systemic problems leading to positive feedback that further corrodes the social fabric. That sounds like an accurate description of the present moment.

As the article states, China does not actually invest in these projects. It simply finances them by providing loans.
I think it is true of Chinese development and western aid as well that the rich country gets the blame. The poor country is sometimes corrupt or ineffective. They could also say no.
You can sign a contract to buy a house from a developer before it is built. No bank will give you a mortgage before the house is built (even if they give you pre-approval), but of course you could pay in cash if you had that and wanted to (taking risk that the builder might go out of business and you will be SOL).

Since most people buy homes with mortgages, most homes in the USA aren't bought before they are built.
Matanuska Telecom Association | Software Engineer - Systems Engineer | Full-Time | Alaska (UTC-9): REMOTE

MTA is an Alaskan ISP serving the southwest area of the state. The software team consists of 7 devs who support a relatively complex business enterprise environment. We're looking to add another Software Engineer and a dedicated Systems Engineer (DevOps) to our team.

As the hiring manager I want to be clear about a few things:

- This is a 70 year old enterprise telecom, not a high speed startup

- This job may interest you if you want great benefits and long-term job stability

- We have an existing environment running onsite on VMWare; the Systems role is designed to support, improve, and make adjustments to our tech stack over time

- Our core backend language is F# these days (replacing Haskell after 5+ years in production), frontend is React

- Our DevOps tooling is built around Terraform, Chef, Nomad, Vault, Concourse CI, Sensu, Prometheus, etc

- Must be authorized to work in the US

This line from the article "...in the number of calls handled per hour by employees of an online retailer that had shifted from offices to homes.." shows that this study is about a call center. A few points on this:

* The discussion here is about tech workers, not call center employees

* Here's another article from 2014 that showed a 13.5% increase at a different call center https://hbr.org/2014/01/to-raise-productivity-let-more-emplo... So study vs study, which one is correct or better? This isn't good evidence either way for software engineers.

The data and evidence we need is from the loud RTO companies (Google, Amazon, etc.) in the software industry pushing for RTO. These supposedly heavily data and metrics driven organizations have NO DATA supporting their RTO efforts. Some random study about call centers is irrelevant here.
Right, "way too quickly" probably isn't the right word, "faster than infrastructure and housing" would probably be better. :)

A couple big things: Fortran natively performs operations on arrays directly like Matlab or Numpy in Python (Matlab was originally a REPL-style front-end to Fortan), and Fortran compilers tend to yield quite fast code (though specific cases will have another language outperform Fortran).

You can read more about the language and its high-level features here: https://fortran-lang.org

That website/community was created in part by the original author of the Python Sympy library, Ondřej Čertík. He is also working on his own Fortran compiler that you can use via webassembly to play around with Fortran; find links if you want to play here: https://lfortran.org

I've only dabbled a little, but I like the general idea, and I appreciate a F/OSS Fortran compiler being developed like this alongside actively seeking to grow the Fortran community & push the language & its libraries forward.

I expect more widespread adoption of Fortran to be quite a ways out, but what Ondřej is doing for Fortran is necessary (not sufficient) for such adoption to be the case.

Your statement is nonsensical.
Also there are a good number of famous/known personalities in HN

sure there are, but unless you know who they are and what their HN account names are and pay close attention to that name on each message then you won't notice them. and, those people are not famous for their writing on HN.

as far as i remember, reddit used to show awards next to the nickname on each message, so you could easily see who the high quality posters were. this appears to be no longer the case. they still have an avatar though, which can make particular users easy to recognize. neither HN nor 4chan have that.
Yes, the whole discussion is about vertical integration, achieved best so far by Apple. I'm sure it can be done in other systems, but for whatever reason other systems haven't made it as simple and seamless. I wonder why. Could it have something to do with the lack of vertical integration maybe?

Most of the population in general here isn't getting to a library without a car. Under 1% live in walking distance. There's a limited bus system that reaches one library.

Generally speaking, only housed folks are getting to the library.

For unhoused that do make it to the library, must run a strong risk of having the police called on them.

Are taxi's any better now? I haven't taken one in more than a decade, but in talking to taxi drivers back then it was clear that calling the cab company and asking for a pickup didn't result in any guarantees. They would call it out on the radio and if someone felt like picking you up they would. Otherwise you just wait outside the bar and wonder why there is no car.
I skimmed that too quickly and was mistaken. Thanks.

Note, I didn't say it was a defeat. And I'm mostly glad for the deal.

That said, I have also gotten everything I've asked for from some deals, only to find I got somewhat taken. There are very real arguments that that is ok, and I confess I still don't feel bad in any of those situations. I can't claim that they don't exist, though.

I strongly feel a large number of people complaining about "lack of collaboration" have a dark pattern of not documenting things.

Sure, you don't need to write everything down - but how many times could someone have simply RTFM if people were more in the habit of documenting institutional knowledge among other things? Even just defaulting to email discussions would help keep track of things much better.

And yeah, when I'm working with other people, I make a point to hang out in a BigBlueButton or other similar instance, with a note with my phone number there, as well as putting in my email signature line my phone and a note that I'm available for videconference.

I still love CDs. I started buying them around 1990-1991. I started with MP3 in 1996 but kept buying CDs. I think I got an iPod in 2003, I digitized all my CDs by 2004-2005 and I did go through a period from about 2005-2013 where I bought almost all my music as digital files.

I never got rid of my CDs though, and in recent years I started listening to them again just like Vinyl LPs. There's still something fun about listening to them, and they always sound great and work really well. I've never had a CD get damaged enough to hear any artifact. It is still a good way to support artists you like, and prices have inverted to the point CDs are affordable and Vinyl LPs are quite ridiculous a lot of the time.
Thank you Dan! All the best.

I've been coding (full-stack + infra) and consulting for 12 years, mostly working on CRM/ERP systems in C# and React, but also third-party integrations and APIs. I'm specializing in legacy app reworks. Comfortable leading solo projects. Currently working on a mobile app for safer hunting (huntsquad.app).

I like interesting challenges (my latest favorite was figuring out how to get industrial printer ink levels from a raw ICMP response), sane and cost-effective solutions, but also keeping a healthy work-life balance. I'm a quick learner, so I can handle new technologies fairly swiftly.

Outside of work I love all things IoT and home automation in general, DIY electronics (I've designed a PCB once and it was fun), video games and music (learning drumming lately).
