> As the cherry on top, on paper one GPU family consists of different architectures! The RX 6700 XT identifies as a different 'architecture' (gfx1031) than the RX 6800 XT (gfx1030). These are 'close enough' that you can tell ROCm to use gfx1030 binaries on gfx1031 and it'll usually just work, but still.

As far as I can tell, the gfx1030 and gfx1031 ISAs are identical in all but name. LLVM treats them exactly the same and all tests for the ROCm math libraries will pass when you run gfx1030 code on gfx1031 GPUs using the override.

The Debian package for HIP has a patch so that if the user has a gfx1031 GPU and there are no gfx1031 code objects available, it will fall back to using gfx1030 code objects instead. When I proposed that patch upstream, it was rejected in favour of adding a new ISA that explicitly supports all the GPUs in a family. That solution is more complex and is taking longer to implement, but will more thoroughly solve that problem (as the solution Debian is using only works well when there's one ISA in the family that is a subset of all the others).

apologies, perhaps i’m missing something here, having not used cap’n proto in any context at all before.

is it not possible to delete the rvalue reference overload of ‘getList’?

as far as i can tell, the error producing code wouldn’t have produced a diagnostic, but failed

I don't think that's restricted to parents: I've felt that way since I was ten years old. That doesn't mean we have to kill the perpetrators: just remove them.

Retribution might make us feel better, but it doesn't solve anything. It's shutting the stable doors after the horse has bolted. We don't need a special judicial exception for the mass murder of children: we need that to not happen in the first place. At that scale, it's not one person: it's an institutional failing. We need those institutional failings to not happen: talk of punishment, except to the extent it has a deterrent effect (which I'm generally sceptical of), is a distraction.

Aviation rarely blames pilots for plane crashes, even when it's clearly their fault (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_by_pilot#By_pilots_in_...): they do things like a two-in-cockpit policy. Aeroplanes are among the safest places in the world. That attitude seems a better one to mimic.

What does it truly mean, to say “never again”?
Ah, the joy of getting search results instead of an error when you mistype a domain name. Or better yet, being forced to type http:// when you want to navigate to a custom hostname. This combination address bar and search input must be stupidest UI element ever made. Thankfully at least Vivaldi allows turning this behavior off.
Thanks for this - looks great. Do you have any other recommendations? Videos, blogs, etc?
Most countries in the world have abolished the death penalty, for good reason.
Some places don't execute mass murderers either.
There are plenty of arguments around this. For example, based on the crime rates in places with death sentences, I'm not sure it provides as strong a disincentive you think it does.
The question isn't "do they deserve to die," it's "is our legal system fallible enough to screw it up," and it has many times.

The problem with our relying on prison and financial punishments with corporate malfeasance is that a) rich people can "play the game" enough to get absurdly preferential treatment in the prison system, and b) the financial penalties are never truly scaled up to the life-ruining penalties most regular people might experience.

In the formula case, I'd rather see the executives condemned to physically serving the families of those affected, and having every asset they own liquefied and split between them.
I don't think it's hard work that has been lost but rather a connection to 'direct results' which are notably lacking from a lot of jobs.
By this logic - and I’m not saying you’re wrong - a good strategy for low education workers would be to try and limit the supply and thus limit low education immigration.

Which would explain current American (and most of western Europe’s) politics and its right wing culture rather well, and indicate that low education workers make rather rational voting decisions.

Happy to hear other analyses :).
Why? It's like advocating for a society wide genocide with nice fluffy words. Isil propaganda starts like this too:"let's just go back to nature, let's just go back to the golden years, the good old days". This stuff has killed and kills every time it becomes policy. As we speak Sri Lanka starves,the ashes of the starved, they are on grand parents hands.
Something like a real solution is to create a way to reintroduce personal liability for executive teams in cases like this where extraordinary harm is done. Human beings need to have their own assets and personal well being at risk, otherwise the incentives for perpetrating mass pollution are too lucrative.

Jail and financial annihilation are basically the only ways to try to counterbalance the massive upside you can get from sociopathic behavior like this.

We need to start treating this more like fraud, but perpetrated as a form of violence.
In the 1960s they were testing detonations.

If you were tasked with manufacturing a 1960s car today that had to work without ever actually starting the engine doing so would be a monumental undertaking, involving supercomputers simulating the internal combustion etc.

That's what's happening with nuclear weapons development since the testing ban, and simulating that's a lot more complex.

They're just very different. 4 is as much a tactics game as an RPG.
That, plus there's no possible way to make executions more expensive than life imprisonment, unless the country is making incarceration profitable by using convicts as slave labor or selling their organs.

except we live in a capitalistic nightmare, the solution proposed is textbook free market and socialism would have not created this nightmare to begin with.

people on HN regularly confuse state capitalism with socialism and I can't wrap my head around on why.

the two systems couldn't be more different and actually the USSR was not socialist, Stalin was not socialist, that's the biggest fabrication in modern human history.

Wanna find what socialism actually looks like? Look at the kibbutzim in Israel.
I think this is naive. Selling off a large company like this is not smart, think about it for a minute. First, who owns 3M (I own a handful of shares for example). Average shareholders will get screwed. Then think about who will buy their assets (IP and manufacturing). Will it be foreign companies? What will the contracts for medical supplies look like for like? Companies that discover they are doing harm will be incentivized to bury, lie, and hide. It’s not that simple,

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the type of person who uses invidious is going to ever be convinced to buy something from an ad on YouTube, especially if they're forced to use it.

Secondly, imo technical measures is fair game - much better than their previously scummy tactic of sending legal threats to the stellar team at invidious.

Thirdly, adversarial interoperability is a human digital right.

Fourthly, godspeed to the invidious team, their hard work and story is important for the wider internet.
Exactly. And maybe we should make sure that crimes against humanity that go unpunished today can (and will) be punished in the future. Some climate activist kids on tiktok call this "Nuremberg 2046".

Doing illegal stuff and lobbying your best to get away with it has become so normal nowadays that maybe an appeal to the honor of the people involved does not cut it.
"Death Comes for the Archibishop" reached the public domain in January of this year. It is excellent.

Cather grew up in Nebraska, and two of the "plains novels" ("O Pioneers" and "My Ántonia") are set there. I like the first a little bit better than the second, but both are pretty good. The third plains novel ("The Song of the Lark") starts out in eastern Colorado, but the character moves around quite a bit. It is the longest of the three, and Cather has more room to develop the main character. I'm about 2/3 of the way through "Lark", and I think I like it the best of the three. The main character Thea Kronborg is interesting and complex, and many of us can understand the fits and starts you go through to figure out what you need to be doing in life.

In all of the books above, Cather has a gift for place. Her descriptions of the scenery of the west or of someone's kitchen are vivid and memorable.

In a Western Writers of America poll (https://web.archive.org/web/20111030021251/http://www.wester...), Cather comes in second in the list of best western authors. Elmer Kelton is first (the compiler noted he got twice as many votes as Cather and the third-place author [A. B. Guthrie]). I've read a couple of books by Kelton and by Guthrie, and they're both excellent as well. Westerns have turned out not to be simply the formulaic stuff I expected (though some of the formulaic stuff is fun to read!).

DJI ate them for breakfast, turns out a single better implemented feature doesn't make a competitive product (or even a survivable niche, apparently).

At ~800g AUW, sub-250g requirements just put the nail in the coffin - the avoidance tech doesn't scale down - a 2kg drone need the extra same weight in sensors and compute and battery to power that extra compute as a 249g one.
Consider whether the stuff you’re thinking about is “politics” or merely “stupidity” or “malice” (or some combination of these). I see no need to mix up the words.

You've got to do less but do better. Thinking that you need to do more is the culprit.

Marie Kondo teaches how to declutter your home by using joy as measurement. You've got to do the same thing to declutter first. Make a list of everything you do. And then measure them on 3 points:

1. Does it give you joy?

2. Does it earn you compliments?

3. Does it captivate you and keep you interested?

If the answer is no for any of the 3 questions, cut it out. (Question 2 should only be used for money making activities.)
If there's never any real justice, some sort of correction needs to occur.
You are helping me prove the point with conveniently placed examples, so thanks. But why embarrass yourself?
Indeed, in the laser business, during a time period when it seemed like someone was coming up with a new kind of laser every month, the field developed a term, "wall plug efficiency," which meant how much laser power per unit of power drawn from the electrical outlet. It was meant to capture the true energy efficiency of the system, rather than just the efficiency of the lasing process.

Look up verlan. It’s a type of French slang where you reverse syllables or sounds of words.

“Verlan” itself comes from the reverse of “l’envers” which means “reverse”.
I thought that was due to the higher switching frequency of the power transistors, perhaps unrelated to higher current draw in the transistor?

> Given that this is a hypothetical, and I have no stake in the outcome, I think it is reasonable to conclude I am not being emotional about this.

And why would you assume that ? If you hand no stake then I'd say it's far less likely to go for descriptions like hubris or ego. I have no stake in chess and I wouldn't call Kasparov anything like that but people more invested in chess certainly do because it's closer to heart for them.

> And how many claimed to be great that are not in the history books?

We don't know, because they're not in the books. But seriously, how exactly does this matter if you are just searching for logical support ?
This sounds very familiar to me.

A couple years ago I helped someone in a situation incredibly similar to this. I'm in infosec, and have forensics in my background.

He used to "talk" to the hackers by writing text the phone's notepad, but when I saw this, I only saw his side of the apparent conversations. He said also that they usually only converse by writing a couple random letters and then deleting them... so apparently kb meant "keyboard," for example. These apparent hackers were totally on him, having infected all the systems in his home, and continually appearing on even brand new phones he purchased to lose the trail.

The person sent me their devices, and I found zero evidence. Then one day he told me they were back and hacking his Android phone and installing stuff on it. He took video (as I had asked him to do) because he had fallen asleep and woke up to witness this hacking going on.

I immediately remembered the footage I saw of a person who installed windows 1.0 and then updated and updated etc through all the versions to see if he could update it to modern Windows (he did).

That's what was on his phone. That very video. And still no hackers, because there wasn't anything unusual on his devices at all, save for that one-sided conversation on his phone. I believe he fell asleep while watching a playlist, and woke up when that video came on. That video is also several hours long, so he could have just started it, fell asleep, then woke to see this.

But there was nothing being installed on his phone. Besides, windows cannot be installed on Android.

So I dropped the case (like the investigators mentioned here.) because I definitely don't feel good about taking money from someone only to repeatedly find that they had triggered the things that were frightening them, or that the things were simply imaginary.

I'm not saying this is the case here. But I will say that everything about it is so very similar. I'm almost ready to convince myself you're the same person because this story is so similar. Only this one wasn't in Germany.

Why would they take a stand against their own interests?
That would catch some legitimate use cases, where you get the list and immediately use it on the same line. Admittedly this is not so common for lists, but very common for struct readers, e.g.:

int i = call.send().getSomeStruct().getValue();

Here, even though `send()` returns a response that is not saved anywhere, and a struct reader is constructed from it, the struct reader is used immediately in the same line, so there's no use-after-free.

Someone else mentioned using lifetimebound annotations. This will probably work a lot better, avoiding the false positives. It just hadn't been done because the annotations didn't exist at the time that most of Cap'n Proto was originally written.
I mostly agree with you. I suppose I missed one important part in my comment - intent. A surviving pilot may not be blamed for a plane crash and associated deaths for merely being at fault. But I bet the story would be different if they did this intentionally, or intentionally allowed it to happen - we'd be talking murder / terrorism charges.

Same in this case, I feel there's a difference between deaths of children as a result of lack of care or attention, vs. knowingly letting it happen because of personal gains.
I think the reference is to Verlan, where the syllables in a word are inverted. It reminds me of "Pig Latin": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlan
This is great tool, I use it everyday, but far from it's Windows based original Everything.

Also this is anbandoned apparently, which makes me extra sad, because it lacks few crucial features like:
- being able to just remove a file from the index if you delete it from the app directly (insted it shows a window how it "soon" gonna be implemented)
- while i understand that indexing service is more complex job - at least caching the index would be nice, because right now when i start the app i have to wait for it to index everything again, but usually i search for files that exists for a long time, not these that was created between my fsearch uses

So yeah. Cool dead and incomplete piece of software ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ From time to time I look for better alternative, if you happen to know one - let me know.
Isn't that for rights though? Surely these explicit limits on congressional authority are more fundamental?

> What would HN folk love in a browser?

A setting to completely disable support for media elements per-origin would be nice. Not this "we try to determine whether a video is eligible for autoplaying" bullshit. I want an "I wasn't asking" approach of the browser literally treating <video> and <audio> as unknown tags when this setting is off.

Native support for Flash via Ruffle would also be nice.

If it's a mobile browser, I really, REALLY want a setting to just completely annihilate all the PWA stuff. No, I don't want to add this random news website to my home screen, thank you very much.

More broadly, I want most of the "progress" of the web platform undone. Sure, new CSS features, like flexbox and grid, are nice. But all those new JS APIs that (try to) turn a hypertext document viewer into a (terrible) operating system? No thanks. I want my clear boundary between the "document" and the "application" back, hence the Flash thing.
I also like to start with a single vowel. I feel consonants are more important for getting it in 3. My goals are mainly to get it in 3 as often as I can, and to never lose.

Also nice to not have the E in position 5, where it's more likely to be green - early greens can put you into a "trap" where you can get unlucky and lose in hard mode. In standard mode you can get out of traps with a filler word, but in hard mode there can just be more possibilities than you have guesses available.
I think the downvotes are because of the snark/swipe in "You're finding this out now?". That kind of thing is against the site guidelines - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html - not just "Don't be snarky" and "Edit out swipes", but also "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize." The point of the OP is not surprise that this is happening (obviously language evolves in this way), but curiosity about how it is happening.

It's a pity because the rest of the comment is fine.
Pretty sure you can disable it in Firefox unless they removed this since last I checked.
I remember reading that California intends to support Apple and Google’s wallet systems. My guess is that they are working on the backend first and this gives them the opportunity to exercise that system faster. Apple wallet itself likely requires more in depth security infrastructure and will take more time (speculation on my part).
Taika Waititas most loved movie is literally him playing hitler.
French has "verlan", which is when you swap some of the syllables of a word to give it a slang or "street" vibe.

Because undoing a death sentence if it turns out the culpit was one level higher in the corporate chain is pretty hard.

I agree in principle that IF your country has the death sentence, there is no reason why it should not be applied in such cases as well. But I think death sentences are problematic. Put them in jail and bar them from ever running a company again. That should be enough.
Who exactly am I insulting? Regarding redefining words, I assume you are referring to the ones in quotes. I am indeed criticizing a subset of people that take a very narrow and ill-defined measure of intellect and assume everyone fits on the same buckets and has the same sort of skills. It's a particular deficiency of the corpo-science class that incestuously defines their strengths as "intelligence". It's the sort of people that haven't matured beyond "book smart".
Yet, somehow I have no problem calling French 'franca'...
I really wanted to down vote your comment based on my own reactions to it, but I can't fault your conclusions.
> In other words it is a badly designed API.

I don't agree. The API is what it is because it is specifically a zero copy API for performance. If you don't care about performance, why are you using C++ (stupid) and a zero-copy API (doubly stupid)?

I absolutely do NOT expect a zero copy API to own things. If I drop the underlying reference that is really an alias, how on earth is that the fault of the zero copy API?

The combination of aliasing and lifetimes are C++ footguns--full stop. This is aptly demonstrated by how quickly Rust kills this cold.

If you use sharp knives, sometimes you cut your fingers. People like you would claim the knife is the problem.
