This will lead to a cat-and-mouse game, I don't know if Youtube really want to go down this path.

If Youtube just calmed down with the ads a bit, I would happily turn off my adblock. In the old days, they had banners in the video which I didn't mind. Could that be a good complement?

Interrupting the video with 2-3 consecutive ads every 5-10 minute is really disturbing, I know this isn't exactly all Youtubes fault since Content creators themselfs can bombard the video with more ads.

At some point, it feels like I watched more ads than the video itself.

On the other hand, I understand that content creators deserve good compensation for their invested time, but I don't think fighting adblocks is a good solution.
So many interesting takes in this hypothetical.

Fatter people have bigger reserves to lean on, but leaner people can hunt the fatties down and, uh, consume their fat in a certain non-consensual way.

That was exactly what I was thinking. How do certify _any_ electric conversion in a country with mandatory annual or biannual technical inspection (i. e. most of EU)? I remember reading somewhere that costs in Germany and/or Scandinavia are so high that whole endeavour is not worth it.

> I just don't get why people buy mountains of food. It is not just food waste, but money waste as well, and most people ought to respond to financial incentives.

Consider how highly engineered and processed many modern foods are, to maximize their "addictiveness". Assume that the not-so-benevolent geniuses behind that trend have also put some real work into encouraging wasteful over-purchasing of their food products.

There is a version in the bsdgames package in Debian¹, IIRC it has been there as long as I've been using Debian (many moons ago!) and I'm pretty sure it was in RedHat with a similar issue name back then too, so probably still is.

Not sure how true to any other version it is, for there have been many, but there will be a source package (and links to upstream of it is still active) to play with for this implementation at least.

You're right, I should read more carefully. Nonetheless, my point still stands, if you can give me some resources to learn these things, with considerably more than 15 minutes allowed, and bearing in mind I have no one to ask when I get stuck, and at my end aim is to actually use these things rather than treat them as interesting (which I already find them so) then I'd be grateful.
Well the whole internet doesn't fit into the few gigabytes these models are.
Those numbers might aswell be pulled out of my behind, but atleast they prove how peaked we are.

That said the neodymium mining and the melting involved are things you cannot make easily with electricity.

Also I suspect subventions have found their way into those numbers somehow.

Anyhow we will now use the last scraps of hydrocarbons fighting over those same hydrocarbons. 1st, 2nd and third world war are the same conflict.

Some AMD employee really wanted those last few FPS out of their CS2 rig. I wonder how you’d even go about optimizing a game this way. They must have some profiling that shows where the engine hotspots are, then somehow tie those to actual engine dll entry points. Kind of a tricky/impressive bit of reverse engineering.

A little off topic, but due to economics of scale, will the price of cars start to plummet once nearly everything is electrified ?

$5k seems cheap, even for a retrofit, I can imagine building a new car should be even cheaper than this. Of course there is the body of the car, interior and suspension, but the whole package together should become cheap as motors and batteries become ubiquitous ?
It's good that more competitors join the GPU market, I am tired of Nvidias monopoly.

It's OK to flag anything - that's free will at play.

It's especially OK to flag things that are off-topic as per the guidelines:

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

as opposed to:

On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

There was very little in the linked thread that gratified intellectual curiosity.

50% of the population in Palestine are children under the age of 15. In Gaza, it's 45%. One thing I've noticed is news media equating Hamas with the majority of Palestinians, they weren't even born when they came into power.

Apartheid Israel and Palestine are not the same. Israel is the aggressor. Israel and the IDF is not more moral than Hamas. They're two sides of the same coin.

Apartheid Israel has ethnic cleansed so many Palestinians that there are now 5.9 million stateless refugees in Jordan and Lebanon. That's half of Israel's population.

Illegal Settlers living in Palestine can vote in Israel but not Palestinians. Apartheid South Africa did the same, they put the people in their own "country" and so couldn't vote. Israel doesn't want 1 state as that would mean millions more voting. And it doesn't want 2 states as that would mean giving up valuable land.

The settlers kill and burn homes to get rid of people: [steal homes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNqozQ8uaV8) and destroy olive tree groves. They pour concrete into Palestinian farmers' water wells.

I remember back in the day ATI Tray Tools also injected itself into processes and caused bans. I don't know what's with AMD and their complete incompetence in matters of software.
Most likely, this is similar to NVIDIA reflex. In that case, they simply wait in the engine loop directly before mouse and keyboard entry are handled. That way, the GPU can process this new data immediately (as opposed to first waiting for vsync) and thereby overall latency is reduced.
Which can catch the unwary out, for instance if you do something like this it won't decrement index in your release build:

TX has a mismanaged power grid with no interconnects to load share by choice, how does that apply to the rest of the US? CA’s problems aren’t demand driven.

As a Brit with solar panels, in June I get 15x the kWh output that I get in December. Which is the month with the highest demand for natural gas, for heating.

So I think we need more than just intraday storage.
The reality is that the market has inefficiencies like human emotion and bot/algorithmic trading which absolutely can be exploited by AI. You just need to train an AI to recognize the inefficiencies, which is exactly what neural networks excel at.

What's the point of using a stateful firewall in front of a server ?

The concept of stateful firewall was created to protect clients:

1. Clients initiate flow toward the dangerous wild Internet;

2. The stateful firewall check that returning traffic from dangerous-Internet belongs to a flow initiated by an inside-client.
=> So it consumes CPU and RAM (session tables) in exchange of protecting inside-clients from dangerous-Internet.

But using a stateful firewall in front of a server seems useless to me:

1. The inside-server behind the firewall MUST reply to all clients, so the stateful firewall must allow all Internet initiated-sessions to reach the server (no usage of a state table here).

2. When the inside-server replies to the outside-clients, the firewall will then consume CPU and RAM to check its state table. So it will consume resources to guarantee that our inside-serve is correctly replying to the outside-clients.. which is pointless.

This could be useful in rare case when you have a very big firewall able to limit the number of sessions toward your small inside-server.

But in case of a DNS server, that are natively able to generate a large number of packets-per-second UDP traffic, this seems to waste firewall CPU and RAM for this useless state table.
That seems like something any engine programmer would implement on their own. Could it really be so simple?

I guess if NVIDIA does it, then it must help. How odd.
There was one other brief thread about this which HN users flagged [0]. The top-voted comments say they flagged it not for the content, but because that HN title had been edited in a misleading way. So I tentatively assume this submission is not objectionable to HN'ers.

I never update. NEVER.

Hate updates with a passion. If they don't break something rightaway (most of the times they do), are guaranteed to turn a snappy phone into a sluggish, barely-usable sort of a brick.

Afterall you never install Windows 11 on your Windows 95 machine and if you did, it would be unusable. Yet the Win95 software is perfectly usable if you decide to stick to it.

If I want new software I'll buy a new device that can run it.

Old phones can last A LONG TIME. I only replaced my mother's Samsung Galaxy S4 last month and only because WhatsApp refused to work with it anymore (not that it couldn't but so are corporate decisions). In all it lasted 10 years, not bad for a phone with no updates.

Like "the market will always go up long term", software updates are the cancer we were brainwashed to accept as some unquestionable axiom.
I could turn my car into a 4x4! Very nice concept, I hope he gets it into production.
Grade inflation is a many decades-old, settled topic. It's mostly a stochastic process of opportunity rather than a grand conspiracy. Hell, Stanford expressly forbids exam proctors in its university's charter. But what dull woodshed implement believes certain political figures or 50%+ of legacy admissions did their own homework or took their own tests? Hell, one of my ex gf's sold homework to legacy rubes because she was an ultra-proficient and diligent with discretion and flexible, creative ethics.

If a prospective student wanted a masochistic, meritocratic challenge (in undergrad), they should consider IIT[0] (and JEE) or a lesser-known US public research university in the top 50-100 range striving to increase its ranking without hiking tuition by focusing on fundamentals. They're ambivalent if any particular student passes or fails, and have less motivation to pad grading. As a first project for an intro network course in 2001, we had to write a forking, forward caching HTTP/1.0 proxy in *nix/POSIX C89.

> wayland_handle_message should be refactored so it's a simple switch that operates on constants, and ideally delegates to other functions.

Is that actually possible? Opcodes by themselves are not unique, and the object IDs are right now assigned at runtime (I can’t tell if that’s actually necessary).
> It's OK to flag anything - that's free will at play.

If it was organic and from regular users, I would agree with you. However, I don't think it is, considering how targeted the flagging is.

If you don't agree with me, then at least consider the possibility. Wouldn't you want to make it harder for people to do that?
There must be some kind of whitelist system. Discord for example doesn't have many options to draw it's ingame overlay. They either create a topmost transparent window (does not work in exclusive fullscreen) or hook glEnd() of the targer or however it's called these days.
It's a tad harder than that. "Common" softlocks generally put you in the elite 4 rooms, with 1 pokemon that is underleveled and knows splash, with all others released. These elite 4 rooms are generally the only rooms that you can enter but not leave (except by beating the trainer or losing), and then you create additionnal constraint to prevent a combat loss from freeing you, like purposefully not picking up a lot of optional items that would make it easier to bounce back.

I would like to know the updated general consensus regarding Rubys performance. I don't think we ever can call Ruby a high performance language because it's interpreted, GC-based and heavily dynamic so optimizations is really hard.

Yet, there have been lots of investments and massive improvements on Rubys performance, how well does it perform today compared to other languages?
don't tar everything with the same brush.

as an aside, passing unique build / vcs / version ids as preprocessor directives are a great way to stymie these kind of systems.
If you do something often, it pays to find out how to do it without vision. I can't function in the morning without/before I have coffee, and this often means I can't pull my shit together enough to make said coffee by which to function. So I have a moca pot and two timers, one 9 minutes and one 13 minutes. Moca pot goes on full heat and it takes exactly 9 minutes for the first coffee to come through; alarm goes off; turn the flame down to very low so as not to burn coffee. By this point I should have switched from making bed to cleaning dishes or folding laundry, (or
vacuuming or cleaning the stove or bathroom or another area I noticed needed cleaning - I attend to each on longer and shorter rotations). At the 13 minute alarm, the coffee is exactly full, and ideally the morning chores are done.
I've used one of those to cut a doorway in a concrete wall. Initially I tried doing this using a very large cutting disc but it wore down the disc so fast that it would have required passes from both sides. The saw did the work in a fraction of the time and made a cleaner cut than the disc, which I had not expected. You want to really plan your cuts though, if it should get pinched it probably would be quite impressive.
Legislation can prevent these things from happening.

That said, your scenario is probably more likely without a massive cultural shift or the introduction of Ranked choice voting.
It is mostly a single metric, but it should give uniform results for approximate overall average performance if that matters. Has CPUs and disk drives as well.

Yes you can actively disable it. You can also pass "-gcflags=-B" to Go to disable bounds checking, and Rust disables runtime overflow checks in release mode by default. Doesn't make the use any less valid.
A friend modded it so it would auto target Klingons with torpedoes when you first enter a sector.

Except it was indiscriminate so it would blow up intervening stars and star bases.

Which could kill you in the resulting nova or lose the game for treason.
Anandtech used to have a decent analog, but then it was sold.

Don't worry, they are rewriting it in React. That is guaranteed to fix all the problems.
Precolumbian European cooking was missing a whole lot of now-basic ingredients, among them tomatoes, potatoes, capsicum, and common beans.
GPU vendors don't have to hook rendering functions since they're the ones providing the implementation of those rendering functions.

If Nvidia requires extra hooks into the game they usually ask the developer to call certain functions in NVAPI, which is their vendor-specific driver interface.
> NULL.freeze # not strictly necessary, but makes it Ractor-safe

Interesting, what makes freezing the constant Ractor-safe? Do I have to do it for all constants in a Class? Does this apply to instance variables aswell?
the hashes do offer some sort of practical security. you can probably configure github to disallow force pushes which means it is now impossible to push something without the new commit being shown to the reviewer. (and peer to peer you can provably configure so you only accept fast forward on a branch)

This means it is harder for an attacker to sneak code into a PR.

It is a minor security piece but all layers of security add up!
Hard-coded default passwords is a non-problem.

The problem is sloppy processes lacking protected networks for staging and deployment that properly configures said network gear with a unique password or TACACS+ auth.
> 1. The inside-server behind the firewall MUST reply to all clients, so the stateful firewall must allow all Internet initiated-sessions to reach the server (no usage of a state table here).

I don't understand this requirement, (more specifically the second half of it).

Isn't a firewall literally a device which allows in some connections, rather than all connections?

(And state plays a role in letting the firewall remember which external clients are acting DOSy?)
There are already barriers to flagging, many threads get flagged by people who have passsed those barriers and are deemed entitled to flag.

> Dart is one of the best languages out there. I've tried many of them, perhaps too many, and Dart easily ranks as one of my all-time favorites. It's clean, intuitive, and I hope it will gain more popularity beyond just being used in Flutter.

I used to think that too, but then i installed sponsorblock. It's like the skipped segment wasn't even there (well, duh). What i mean is that if i skip a segment of the video and not notice it, was it really relevant and well-integrated?

You weren't introduced to these services, you got advertised to. How many raid shadow legend ads did you sit through to hear about backblaze once? Did you ever hear about backblaze from a more reputable source? Did you consider alternatives to backblaze before paying for their services?
You're being silly, and you know it. I don't mean all Russians, just the ultranationalist garbage who back Putin's hamfisted attempts at rebuilding their old empire. And the idea that it's somehow a slur against all Slavs is just you revealing exactly how dishonest your complaint is.

They are forced to care when their employer does.

Sadly, it's true. There are a lot of rebranded products with completely different stacks. And some started as pretty gross, thrown together startups.

If you wanted to make some juice at the cost of a lot of squeeze, legacy support is always needing self-abusive people who can keep fragile crap going.
First Past The Post voting.

With something like Ranked choice voting, competition would be introduced into the electoral system. Making 3rd parties viable will also give a larger percentage of the electorate representation in government. Plus more people will be engaged in the political process.

CGP Grey has a short and informative video on the topic, as well as videos on alternative electoral systems we could use. All his videos on other topics are top notch if you got some free time, check him out.

How we vote is controlled by the states, so we don't need to beg the two mainstream political parties to get this done.

I believe a couple states already have done away with FPTP voting, so it's possible. Alaska and Maine IIRC.

Oregon recently is looking into doing it as well but I am not sure if they passed it yet.
