I wouldn't say that a technology which would dump a ton of supply, affecting, if not disrupting the market, has "almost nothing to do with the topic at hand". it's unfortunately a bit of a fantasy and years out from being possible due to a natural disaster setting the industry back by yet another a decade but it's totally relevant for a threaded forum.
Well, we disagree. Our ancestors came here to escape your laws. Your way of looking at government and law led you to two continent wide wars which us free speech and gun loving people had to go clean up for you. And it looks like you're working on your third. The results speak for themselves, your reasons for authoritarianism aren't good enough as far as we are concerned, you're so happy with being told what to say, great, I don't see why you're so concerned about how we conduct our business over here. We have our reasons too, and ours are better justified.
Nice visual presentation of the concept.

On the likelihood something like this might be considered, dont hold you breath. Our continuing use of Babylonian time is probably the most pervasive and enduring network effect known to humanity.

Now if everybody followed that strategy, where would we be?
With both you’re hoping there are no logs. It’s odd you used a different scenario where search intentionally makes the call to save searches linked to you and sell to ad companies, instead of sticking with the same scenario used for the vpn. You don’t want the search engine to log your searches linked to your ip or a user id that ties back to your billing info.

Then there’s a non-zero chance that either the VPN or the search or both are actually honeypots which not only log everything, but have a whole monitoring and alerting machine setup.

You’re more trusting than I. I assume the VPNs are no where near anonymous. I assume paid search is no more private than any other search. I assume the government doesn’t get or need warrants to know what we do online (do you think Prism just went away or hasn’t been replaced with a superior iteration?)

If anything paid search is more privacy invading than free ones. With free ones when logged out they know your IP which could serve any number of people so it wouldn’t be shocking that the searches being look into came from someone else on your connection and not you (tor relies on this), whereas with paid search you must be signed in to use, with an email address tied to you and a cc tied to you, all plausible deniability goes out the window.
Time zones were invented for time agreement across longitudes. We could easily do away with them if we included longitude, and everybody used a true solar noon clock. It could be automatic for GPS-enabled devices to maintain accurate solar noon time. Actually GPS satellites send a very accurate time on the signal, so you wouldn’t necessarily need a time server, except to know which epoch you’re on.

Absolutely, this.

Being that human companion that's there with them to the end is terrible, and I wouldn't do without it. I've done it a few times now over the years, and see it as part of the price I pay for all they give me through our time together.

As a contrast, I was something like 13 when my mom took our dog in for euthanasia, without telling us kids that it was happening. They thought they were sparing us some pain, but I found it devastating. Getting home from school, "where's Buddy?" "Um...."

No, be there. It's always better in the end.

Why not just use a server then? Surely that's less complicated than implementing or even just using CORBA/DCOM?
Playing Wolfenstein3D on a friends PC was one of the reasons I thought "It's over for the Amiga" [0]. When talking to Commodore management at conferences back then, they didn't want to see 3D coming [1] (For reference I had a A4000/40 Retina(Z3) around that time).

So it is nice to see this :-)

[0] Both demo scene coders
[1] Funnily I was a Sega Saturn zealot around the time too, which was also 100% 2D focused and Sega didn't see 3D coming (Though I loved Panzer Dragoon, a 3D game squeezed out of 2D hardware, and Daytona was great too). And yes there was Starglider2 for the Amiga (Loved the space whales, was recently reminded of them when watching Ahsoka).

So what to do? Use 1Password, Bitwarden use iCloud Keychain or something different like Enpass, KeePass, Strongbox or something else to sync it local?
I'm not qualified to properly respond but I've accepted what Michael Levin says about what cancer is, basically when cells become 'deaf' to the tissues around them which would normally either (by 'telling' them) make a cell behave as one of these cells should, or end up destroying the invader. Cancer cells ignore the message and behave like single -celled organisms instead. Cancer doesn't have just one component that can be detected by testing though, multiple different signalling and communication mechanisms all have to be broken at once. There's many paths that can lead to it and it's overall extremely varied as a disease iiuc.

Identifying these pathways would probably be by genetic sequencing, protein folding/behaviour analysis and extensive in-test-tube experimentation with living cell cultures.. but I'm not in the field so I don't really know. Maybe there's a voktage-gradient-memory-based (see Michael Levin's work) way to detect this type of misbehavior too? That'd be really cool!
How to Build a Waiting List?
And I thought it was hit on the head lessons here. And I don't want to argue about that..
Meh, with NAT and CGNAT you're only going to get a rough idea. Lot of people using VPNs now too.
The biggest problem with LSP is that it's a lowest common denominator solution. If I try to edit OCaml using an LSP solution, I don't get features like "query type of symbol", presumably because JavaScript doesn't need it.
AWS is the actual villain here. They are the one abusing open source work while giving nothing in return.

We can all keep blabbering that it's not open source anymore, and blah blah, but the reality is that development of such systems is incredibly time consuming, and costs real money. Providing hosted solutions and offering some sirt of consultancy are the only 2 realistic income streams for the people who actually have built 99% of that.

Companies like Amazon destroy this because of their greed.
This is so neat.
Sounds to me like the US needs harmonized tax laws?
I have one of those - “builder phones” as some call them - for outdoor activities.

Cheap, fucking indestructible, and you could probably bludgeon someone to death with it in a pinch.

It also has a thermal imaging camera which is surprisingly handy for stuff like “finding where in the garden my cat is hiding at night” or “figuring out what’s overheating” or monitoring the state of my compost bin.
Unless they MITM you and whatever app you’re using doesn’t do cert pinning, or they don’t have a legit root cert that they can sign completely valid certs with
That's an interesting way to see it.

I feel that it's the other way: Slackware is going away (it used to be a major important distributive, and not I hardly ever hear about it), while Gnome is a default environment in many distributives.

I have no reason to like Gnome (I switched away from it when Gnome 3 happened and haven't looked back), but for me it seems that it's pretty popular.
I also listen to pink noise or rain sounds on headphones throughout my work day. I worry about the side effects of listening to random noise for so long, but I continue (not loudly) because it effectively masks my tinnitus (and helps with my task focus).

I'm messing around with implementing a parallel runtime system right now^, and I also had to implement a shared-nothing allocator. I ended up making each thread have a Chase-Lev Deque of 2MB pages. If you want to allocate a page, you do the usual pop-or-try-to-steal thing, and if that doesn't work, THEN you do the mmap to get another 2MB page. I was going to benchmark it and write a post about it, but I never got around to it. Glad shared-nothing allocation seems to be a problem worth solving.

^ actually it's basically implemented. I model-checked it with TLA+ and found a bug that I haven't fixed yet. Next up I'm writing a query engine on it.
How do you take 'ultimate driving experience' literally ?

Taking your initial analogy, it's the difference between not sleeping well in the 787 Dreamliner, vs said Dreamliner crashing before landing.
I see your point, too. (And also adore treesitter!)

The examples I gave were around lint-y types of things, but the same problem affects more LSP-y things, too. The link I gave has lots of tweakable knobs for refactoring plugins and other stuff that’s more philosophically in-scope for language servers.
For SIMD kernels that do "general-purpose computation" like formatting strings, parsing documents, or entropy encoding and decoding, it's difficult to use variable-length vector extensions, and ultimately these sorts of things written for these targets are likely to branch at runtime based on the actual width reported by the CPU. One of the most important operations for this sort of thing, TBLQ, doesn't even exist in SVE prior to SVE2.1 published ~1 year ago, so parser devs targeting aarch64 can safely target NEON until SVE2.1 lands in the hardware they care about.
If you want to show something like this off it would be more appropriate as a Show HN since there isn't anything novel here.

I can understand why an honest mistake, an accounting misinterpretation, or incorrect decision leads to a gap this big - taxes can be complex.
hmm interesting. I just realized the magical Thread is in some sense about local maximum i.e. the best foreseeable thing right now that doesn't require much effort to achieve.

Even when we don't think we're pulling the thread, we often are. The only way is to constantly remind yourself of an imaginary/unforeseeable global maximum that you can work hard to acheive..

But even then that could just be another local maximum that I've tricked myself into thinking that's all there is. But if you aim too high, it's exhausting and may have the adverse effects (e.g. you end up failing while also missing out your local maximum) - and so you would want to hang more into the foreseeable local maximum (which may not be too bad a thing to be honest, esp when you are all burnt out).

This is truly the hardest problem in life.

.. and then here is the strange question: is trying to achieve global maxmium and immersing yourself in work and becoming a workaholic (so more get done while time passes quicker) the actual pulling of the thread?
Yes, ofc. The LLM instrumentations are just like all other instrumentations.

Every area had a mile that was a different lenght from the others. Time was the same everywhere already.
I was trying to take a passport photo, and one of the requirements is "has not been touched up". But when I took the photo with my phone, I noticed that it had been very helpful in touching up my face by removing almost all of my wrinkles and made my skin nice and soft. Even with all "enhancements" off. This was on an Samsung S10, I tried with an iPhone SE, it was slightly less visibly touched up, so I used that, but still definitely had a "beauty" filter built in. It's probably implemented in ASIC so you basically can't turn it fully off.
I wondered if the vaccine flu symptoms might've created congestion in your middle ear but sounds like it didn't.

Perhaps you could do an experiment on yourself with the supplement to figure out if it's really having an effect or just placebo.
No doubt. The ability to scale is great, but the best thing about Kubernetes is really the API.

> not really relevant to the discussion.

You're on a throwaway, so correct me if I am wrong, but this is your first comment in this discussion? How is it irrelevant enough for you to insist such a thing? Distributing in such a way that illegitimate copies disappear but your margins are affected as if the piracy were there all the same is useful to think about in this discussion, because it has happened and you can study it somewhat.

To your point on copyright, unaffordable things aren't always entertainment, though it would be nice if that were the case. Feeling that the majority of content is frivolous entertainment is just a feeling; a feel-good feeling that trivializes any drawbacks to the copyright system.
You never had a chance to experience another Yugoslavian computer Pecom 32 then :)

Nuclear so far is very expensive and hasn't shown a great price trajectory. It remains unclear if new designs would realize better price points if they were to become reality.
Yes, since we're using vanilla OpenTelemetry, you can set your exporter to whatever you want, including OpenTelemetry Protocol File Exporter. But I'd still use some sort of a dashboard, like Jaeger or one of the open source observability platforms like SigNoz or HyperDX that you can run locally.
It introduces _some_ of the failure modes of a distributed system, like unsynchronized / inconsistent data, but not all, like network failures. I think he does have a point there -- as a user, I should not have to care whether an IDE talks to a library via its API or to a language server via LSP, but here I am, watching WebStorm to act up and complain that the TS language server crashed.

One thing that Blow misses IMHO is to what extent libraries introduce these failure modes _too_: A library can crash as well (and take down the IDE with it), and multiple libraries that deal with the same data can get inconsistent. That's actually a problem of quality control, integrating code from multiple third parties, and so on.
Because your calendar app happens to use a jpeg decoding library that uses "high power" instructions.

SMRs are going to have relatively high capital costs and (hopefully) low but non-zero operating costs. They will probably have similar ramping characteristics to coal. As such, they will probably operate like coal - generating most of the time when able to and get their lunch eaten by zero-marginal-cost solar in the middle of the day.

One thing SMRs will absolutely not be used for is as peakers, which is where market design matters is most important for keeping the lights on at an affordable cost.
Doubtful the courts would allow this shell game.

Just because a particular usage is not protected doesn't mean you can do anything with it.
I wonder if this is still the case as most comments petered out end of March. There was a nasty bug discovered in Emacs JSONRPC-Library, which did cause spurious LSP connect errors and likely other issues in LSP server communication

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=8bf4c...

Do note that many users might have not been aware of this issue. The fixed library is part of Emacs 29. If you are not on Emacs 29 you might pull in a more recent JSONRPC-package from ELPA in which case it will shadow the inbuilt/pre-shipped library.
The wisdom of being selective about Python-lsp-server plugins
That is one of the more mind-bending hypotheses I've seen, and ... there's some plausibility to the argument. Proof would be exceedingly challenging to come by, though sample returns from extra-solar-system bodies which show evidence of common-ancestor biology might occur.

Contradictory evidence might be the establishment of proto-genetic sequences which are capable of encoding at least simple proteins, and some evidence that the development of such capabilities in a biologically-naive environment (that is: without any competition from existing life forms) is more rapid than subsequent evolutionary development. A key concept that needs to be kept in mind when considering the evolution of any system --- biological, technological, informational, etc. --- is that primordial species and forms need not be competitive against any current exemplars with which we're familiar, but only those which exist in their own contemporaneous environment. It's a lot easier to get started when things are just getting started....

I do note that the idea that the entire Universe on average was within the Golidlocks temperature zone might well also mean that localised places and times were subject to vastly greater levels of ionising or other radiation which would be highly disruptive to life.

That said ... the idea that conditions suitable for biological activity literally once pervaded the Universe and are now only found in very localised circumstances orbiting a small subset of stars and limited to rocky planets with significant water ... is both epic and poetic. Literally sparks fading from an all-encompassing explosion....

3. Is unclear, copy may result in a corrupted backup, but the original remains uncorrupted, so you also have one uncorrupted version just like if you renamed the file but couldn't restore the original?

4. That's an argument for raising awareness via better tools, not for avoiding the useful links
Weren’t the California brownouts caused by Enron fucking with California’s supply to cause them to purchase electricity from Texas at insanely high rates. Also led to Gray Davis being recalled which must have been a nice bonus because the Bush administration was very allied with Enron execs.
Have they incorporated the laser links into prod on their sats yet? I thought that they were launching sats with them yet hadn’t successfully routed traffic yet through them in prod which is why they have a limitation to near the coast.
Reminds me of this network routing technique: Send a packet to a random node, and then have that node forward it to its final destination.

Sounds dumb but actually it's useful sometimes? I dunno, IANA networking person.

Selling Video Games in History: Top Games
No fluff, just the facts. Video games are a big deal these days, with all sorts of flavors and gadgets to please folks all over the world. But there are some games that really hit the jackpot, not just ’cause they’re fun to play, but ’cause they make bank.
It’s true in the sense that every invocation takes arbitrarily long and can fail, which isn’t really true for normal libraries.

To clarify for readers, since I'm sure raphlinus understands this, those 256-bit instructions are present in AVX-512. But it will be nice to have those 256-bit instructions (my favorites are vpcompressb and friends) on cpus that do not have 512-bit instructions.

Ask HN: How do I get back into .NET development?
I'm 38 and started my developer career 15 years ago. 10 years ago I switched from .NET to Golang. And for the past 5 years I have primarily worked with mobile apps (Kotlin/KMP) and transitioned more into a manager role.

Now I'm looking to focus more on the coding and I'm interviewing for a senior .NET backend position tomorrow. I'm hoping that my experience in the field will make up for most of the .NET-specific things I have missed or forgotten about. Do you have any advice on what I should prioritize to read up on before the interview?

I will very much appreciate any suggestions, thank you!
I always assumed you had to create/manage user credentials inside KeyCloak. I'll take a deeper look at the docs.
