I mean, you certainly _could_ - most users don't try to regularly reinstall the same binary they downloaded.
Again: I don't write the headlines. I do give my stories headlines, but more often than not the editors write their own and I have no control over that. They are much more experienced than me in writing snappy headlines that attract readers, which is not my job.

So no, I did not go for it. I do use judiciously alliteration and all sorts of things, sure, but my headlines are rarely used, so they'd be in the body copy, not the titles or subtitles.

Semi-related: years ago I made a silly little running pace converter site: https://pace.ninja/

I’m not a huge runner but still find myself using it all the time, both for my own occasional running goals and to satisfy my curiosity for questions like “how quickly would an elite sprinter’s pace finish a marathon?”
Not only OnlyFans profiles, but also Instagram. Some want to get to a few thousand followers and use it, I know even some people in relationships that did it.

And then there's the bots which just start a generic conversation and recommend some Clash of Clans clone or something.

But as mentioned, you realize that in the first 5 mins of interaction.
While the article suggests the increase is due to external pressures (e.g. inflation meaning that people have less to spend on entertainment), something that I've noticed over the past couple of years in my neck of the woods is an increase in the cost of streaming services. When you throw in the proliferation of streaming services with exclusive content, which has been happening for several years, I'm not terribly surprised that people would be trying to cut costs.
This is an "antivirus software" company article, thus using language to spread fear, the infamous FUD. There's many issues in the article so I flagged it, to name few:

> "stealing digital content"

Most of the definitions for "steal" involve the word "property" in the way that you deprive the owner of their property. When someone steals something, the owner loses that exact thing. This is not true when copying digital content. Some studies have found that in some cases, piracy can even enhance legit sales, which makes this even fall apart further "he stole $10 from me so I ended up $50 richer" doesn't make any sense, does it?

> "content that should be paid for."

Who decides what content should be paid for? "Okay guys, you should all pay me for all my tweets. Oh and since you are technically 'downloading' them by reading them, pay up a fine" would def not fly, so this definition holds water.

And even if we go to a more practical approach where we imagine copyright holders, international licensing deals, etc. are no problem at all (which they are), copyright law still varies greatly from country to country for different reasons, for example in most countries you can copy a small part of whatever content you want for educational purposes (not-profit), or e.g. critique, even if the author or copyright owner vehemently oppose it.
Not only. A visibly weakened continental western europe, russia, turkey, discontent within the eu (ie austria increasingly resurgent), an increasing domestic risk, all pose a real threat to european stability. The situation is likely to blow up soon.

Not a single word about the proliferation of official services recently that makes it harder to access content because unless you're signed on with all of them (which gets expensive fast) you're missing out on _something_ while still paying dearly for the privilege.

DVDs don't require a monthly payment to remain accessible, and there's no executive who can decide on a whim to deny access even when paying. Nobody cares that the season 1 DVDs come from studio A, while season 2-4 DVDs are from studio B. They can be shared or swapped with friends. Some DVDs are even available to loan at the public library for a modest annual membership fee (and we're members anyway because they also have gasp books!)
In fairness std::allocator has always been a wreck, and in fairness RAII let’s you do a fairly low friction arena: but you run to the same set of problems that the C folks have with things as common as doubly linked lists. There are plenty of good ones, but every project has a different one.

Jai just throws you a bump-allocated heap arena with a (tunable) default bigger than 8MB that you can hit with idiomatic syntax in every basic block.

None of this is impossible in C or C++ or Rust or Java: but idiomatic defaults and notation matter.

Most per-method allocations should be pointer bumped in an arena (we’re already paying for page tables and a TLB, might as well get our money’s worth), and the languages just don’t encourage it.
What? Where is that idea mainstream?
There might be "apps" for that although you should heartily review their privacy policy and alway have internet off for it

There is a button in the tab bar that lets you pick up tabs from your other devices. This uses the Mozilla Sync functionality that also syncs bookmarks, login IDs, passwords and extensions between browsers.

Now the "tabs on other devices" functionality has its own name: Mozilla View.

I actually quite like it and am already finding it useful. I don't use their tab bar, though, so I added a button to the extensions menu.
No, it’s more like while building a road, they tore down a rudimentary hospital and school and told people “don’t worry, the road will hopefully make it cheaper to build a new, better hospital and school some day!”

And no, the condition doesn’t need to be that nobody bothers to use it, it’s that it doesn’t get used at such a scale on a timeframe people care about to replace the infrastructure it destroyed.

> I couldn’t care less what the contract says about working hours.

But you don't tell your management and trust your fellow engineers not to rat you out (or they are not your colleagues, just people on HN?)? Because this sounds more like quiet quitting. Or you over-perform even though you work 50%?
Companies aren't cheap, but they aren't exactly expensive either. A couple weeks ago I've registered a company in Estonia – it only cost me the 265 € state fee. Code signing certificate is another what, 500 euro on top of that? Certainly more expensive than a $10 domain with a free certificate, but still could be a reasonable cost for e. g. a targeted attack.

There's another catch – you either have to register a company in your name, or find somebody to own it for you. I don't think the latter would be a big problem though: there was a lot of news about shady fintech startups in the Baltics lately and many of them were in fact registered in the name of random people looking for some quick cash.

Now, if I see something like MicroSoft-Inc OÜ (EE) in the app signature, I would probably get a bit suspicious. But if it's a less known brand? Who knows!
In France you can ask for a colonoscopy and your MD will order it (and if they are reluctant or want to have a string reason you just say that there is family history).
You would care if you ran faster to begin with. But if you're running mostly recreationally, especially if you took it up without a competitive racing background, then I can appreciate why you wouldn't care about pace.

I was a competitive runner in college and it's actually the reason I won't run a marathon now. I got so burned out from that career that now I just run without a watch for fun, to de-stress. If I were to run a marathon I'd want to "do it properly" and not just finish it, and that would be way too stressful for me. Even now, when I run an annual turkey trot 5k, I can't help but race the people around me and go as fast as I can despite being terribly out of shape...

> A letsencrypt style signing process would be possible and would let people base the trust on the ownership of company.com instead of a regular cert. And for most use cases this seems good enough.

Except it seems that's not what they want at all.

LetsEncrypt works because we've worked out it's sufficient for purposes of HTTPS to attest that "you" own the domain company.com, which is verified by making you do something that can be done only when "you" are in control of what company.com DNS points at. The nature of "you" is immaterial, out of scope - only demonstrating control over a domain matters. This lends itself to automation.

What they want to do with code signing is to pin the code to a specific legal entity. That's crossing from data integrity/provenance straight to KYC/legal space - for users to be allowed to run your code, you must become an entity that can be easily served a lawsuit should the need arise. You can't automate that, for the same reason you can't automate renewing your national ID/passport or automate starting a company.

It's not so much that they sound the same. It's that they are small Germanic, historically neutral countries in Europe. The names are similar enough to misremember details about the two. It's hard to separate the two countries by just remembering stereotypes.
Binaries are timestamped though. If you sign it, it's practically valid forever (unless you revoke the signature).
Literate programming is an interesting approach. I wonder if it is really helpful for building large systems though.

In my opinion, trying to understand a large codebase is a learning activity. True, documentation is important at times. However, it depends also on the author. If writing good code is hard, writing good literate programs is imho harder. Now one needs to be a good writer and a good coder. Probably the skills are transferable to an extent, but I think they are different things in the end.

Besides that, the ability to explore and try things out is also helpful for learning things. That's why I think Smalltalk is the most approachable language so far. You get a browser and a REPL (workspace), and the object explorer plus inspector tools. Not to mention the method finder. All these tools to let you learn how code works. I really miss having some of these tools in other languages, especially the browser. Even Lisp doesn't have that one afaik (correct me if I'm wrong).

In the end, I believe language facilities such as the ones I previously mentioned are more valuable to understanding than being able to wrap code in prose. Still, documentation is invaluable at times. So comments will (should) never go away.

Thank you!

I guess I deserve the downvotes for coming in hot and opinionated.

In my (admittedly lame) defense, mine literally is an off the cuff comment in a place intended for such.

Your comment demonstrates well what I was (failing) to get at.the project is what it as and where it is. Whether or not that's really interesting is for a science journalist to decision.

It can't be interesting enough to write an article about and not interesting enough to investigate curiously.

It's not that hard to investigate. The people are not hard to reach. The good questions are not that hard to establish.

Why can't we have better? I'm genuinely perplexed.
>height and weight, fast- and slow-twitch muscle mass, cardiovascular conditioning, flexibility and elasticity, and probably more.

When we try to figure out how to measure someones speed (say to compare Usain Bolt to another high quality sprinter) we will look at factors like height, stride length and strength. But in terms of all the factors that need to be measured to describe the function of someones running speed we also have to think of things like the speed of gravity, how many legs they have, the viscosity of air etc. Usain Bolt can't change any of these features of course so if he wants to run 3% faster he might need to be 3x as strong as another runner - since that is one of the few parameters in the equation he can influence.

I think this explains the distribution of the top speed runners performances. The olympic 100m champion won in 2021 with a time of 9.80 and a good teenager might run a time of 10.70. If you saw this on a running track as the olympic champion would cross the line when the amateur was about 93 meters into the race. That's pretty close when you consider that one runner is a professional that might be able to lift weights 3x as heavy as the teenager, they have been training for years and years with professional help and they execute the race with superior form.

This is something that I like to remember when we try to compare and measure peoples skills and how they are likely distributed in society.
Yes, just sounds more formal than "Russia prob gonna get us so let's get ready".
I’d argue that you’re just misunderstanding what makes a number prime. You can literally never be 100% sure a randomly generated number is or isn’t prime, it’s just the way numbers work.

I live 20 minutes from a two college town and 3.5 hrs from NYC. AmZN packages, Prime or not, take five days to reach me.

I canceled Prime and rarely order from AMZN (less than once a month.)

Some people say “it serves me right” for living in a rural area but every other retailer such as Office Depot, Target, Best Buy, Adorama, Gamestop, are quicker. 2 day shipping is ‘standard’ in my experience, occasionally I get free 1 day for an expensive item (say pro camera lens) some of the laggards are 3 day.

For me, AMZN is in a class by itself for slow shipping.
Show HN: how I built the largest open database of Australian law
Hey HN,
Over the past year, I’ve been working on building the Open Australian Legal Corpus, the largest open database of Australian law. I started this project when I realised there were no open databases of Australian law I could use to train an LLM on.

In this article, I run through the entire process of how I built my database, from months-long negotiations with governments to reverse engineering ancient web technologies to hacking together a multitude of different solutions for extracting text from documents.

My hope is that the next time someone like me is interested in training an LLM to solve legal problems, they won't have to go down a year-long journey of trying to find the right data!

You can find my database on HuggingFace (https://huggingface.co/datasets/umarbutler/open-australian-l...) and the code used to create it on GitHub (https://github.com/umarbutler/open-australian-legal-corpus-c...).

> The problem with most products made under planned economy is that they often didn't even work out of the factory

This happens under capitalism as well. Judging by the amount of junk in your average building store's tool department... some of it looks just like the real thing, in some cases they aren't even trying. I recently bought an air relief key for my radiators, they only sold them in packs of three. All three of them were of such crappy casting material that they broke on the first tap I tried to open with them. Fortunately I found one made in the 70's or so from stainless steel and that worked like a charm. But you couldn't buy that quality today in a normal store, you'd have to go to some specialty place that sells tools for professionals, get yourself a registered account with them and then you can order.

Planned economy products were a mixed bag, that's for sure, but capitalism can produce junk just as easily. What matters are the incentives and to what degree the buyers have access to alternatives.

Usually, these articles about movies, clothing, art, or geography don’t have a single picture, even though what they are discussing is inherently graphical. I suspect that it’s because people who read these articles don’t care, because they don’t read them to become actually informed, they read them simply to feel smarter.

> What they found was that the a value for our black hole is between 0.84 and 0.96, which means it’s rotating incredibly fast. At the upper range of the estimated rotation, it would be rotating at nearly the maximal rate. This is even higher than the spin parameter of the black hole in M87, where a is estimated to be between 0.89 and 0.91.

[0.84,0.96] and [0.89,0.91] are both centered on 0.90; strange to say that the former is higher, it's mostly just less well determined.
you absolutely can. aks is a polynomial time deterministic primality check.
In my opinion there are two C++'s:

1) the version used by people writing things like the STL/Boost

2) the version used by people writing apps.

A huge amount of the updates to the language are to make the lives of people in category 1 easier.

The people who fall into category 2 really don't need to use all the template headachery that the language allows. They can if they want, but they probably don't have to.

I've noticed that the Boost people are now deprecating old versions of C++. I look forward to hopefully quicker build times. To be fair, the Boost codebase is a masterpiece of working around decades of C++ versions and compiler bugs/missing features. Obviously that makes the code largely incomprehensible to newcomers.

> Perhaps if labels and studios paid artists more their argument would resonate more with the fans who consume the art.

Granted, I'm probably an outlier here since I'm not a big consumer of the type of media they're talking about, but it seems like affordability and convenience would be much bigger factors. Keep in mind that people were doing things like sharing accounts even when streaming services were undergoing massive growth. It doesn't sound like they had much concern about artists or other people working behind the scenes.
