I think most municipalities see growth as a general good. The issue starts when the cost of growth starts to outweigh the benefits. Roads/water/utilities/waste management are all municipal services that need to be able to handle the growth.

Local democratic governments is the American way.

Sleep.

If I didn't skip it, it's not mentioned in the article, but it's very important in my experience. If you don't sleep enough, going through with a reduced calorie intake will be much harder.

I personally tend to overeat if I haven't slept for more than 6 hours the last night. Lost 88lb a long time ago within a (too) short time.
Are there any publicly-viewable C codebases that make use of pre-C23 auto? When I learned C (2003-ish) auto vs. register was at best a footnote that came up when discussing static.

I agree that you don't need auto pointers in C the way you do in C++. C++ type names can get so cumbersome...much easier to let the compiler figure it out for you.
Can we just cut out the middleman and vote for ChatGPT directly? I'd trust it more than any of the last few presidents.
The laws within the country by which the product operates - and stores data - might not be compatible with regulations in which the customer must operate.

The legal headache for a US/EU company to use a SaaS product from China would not be worth the cost and risk.

> Also what would be the benefit of running Xcode cloud on Apple Silicon? Today cross compilation is the norm so the architecture doesn't matter. They would have to make a new datacenter version of their chips without the GPU and accelerators that aren't used for CPU heavy tasks.

ARM builds can be done on x86, but what about the automated tests after? Those have to be run on ARM when you target AS and everyone including Apple themselves needs something to do that.
Share your sideprojects 1-on-1 (coffeehouse chat)
I had so many great chats with so many other people when coffeehouse.chat/hn was on the frontpage yesterday, talked to a lot of people with side projects. i figured i'd create a more focused topic and see if anyone is interested!
Let’s say there exists some “illegal” or “criminal” output of an LLM, doesn’t that mean by definition the government has criminalized speech and thought? since the output of an LLM is by definition tokens of language.

Now image generation I guess we can see as different since we do agree some images or videos have content society sees as illegal.

The whole topic is fascinating to me. Censorship and regulation around generative AIs.
Recently I was in Hawaii, snorkeling in an area where I could walk around. I don't now how to swim, but I have been in shallow pools before. Unbeknownst to me, I was slowly drifting into a deeper area as I was busy just looking down at the fishies. Suddenly I realized my feet no longer could touch the bottom, and an initial panic set in. Then I quickly reasoned that I would just sink to the bottom (which was, about, 8 feet or so) and push myself off of it to reach the surface, then take a deep breath and do a doggie paddle-sort of a motion to get closer to the rocks nearby. If I had panicked, I would not have been able to hold my breath long enough. Luckily I did not at the moment and managed to reach the rocks (which were about 3 feet deep).

After that day, I swore to be more careful next time!
I lost 35lbs recently—surpassing my goal. I tracked every calorie I consumed and used an Apple Watch to be sure I was hitting my calorie deficit goals. However if I were doing it again today, I would follow some simple rules: cut anything I was planning on eating in half, then substitute with as much salad and fruit as I want. You can reduce calories in dressing by adding acids to it (pickle liquid, etc.). Easy to remember, really effective.
"Open Source" ... but is built around and tied to "Open"AI... :/

So weird that this isn't local LLM first.
I highly suspect zero alcohol is correlated with less health than some alcohol only because when you have health problems you often stop drinking.
It could help in generic macros, like this:

#define SWAP(var1, var2) do { \
auto tmp = var1; \
var1 = var2; \
var2 = tmp; \
} while (0)

Previously, you would have needed a third macro for the type, or you would have needed to do a byteswap to be generic.
Confusingly, it’s a Calorie, in the sense of “the thing the nutrition label says you probably need 2000 of a day.”

If I remember correctly, 1000 calories (with a lowercase “c”) makes one Calorie (with a capital C). The former is the energy to raise 1g of water through 1 degree Celsius, and the latter 1kg through the same amount of temperature change.
That’s called living in a functioning society.

At some point there won't be a choice.

The real issue will be whether apps like WeChat will be made available on iOS/Android or whether the CCP will force customers abroad to buy Chinese phones in order to use them. That would have major security implications.

I love that you actually posted here.
Any explicit license would only apply to copyrights, including all of the ones you listed there. Buying a painting is not copying it, neither is looking at it, so it wouldn't matter if I had a license for it or not.

The fact is that copyright only applies to specific situations, it does not give you complete control over the thing you made and what can be done with it.

If I buy your book, I can lend it to a friend and they can read it without paying you. I can read it out loud to my children. I can cross out your words and write in my own, even if it completely changes the meaning of the story. I can highlight passages and write in the margins. I can tear pages out and use them for kindling. I can go through and tally up how many times you use each word.

Copyright only gives you control over copies, end even then there are limits on that control.
One important factor is that many alcoholic beverages taste great and are a way of enjoying life. I don't think "zero because that way you'll live longer" is the be-all end-all of arguments. What if the same hypothetical argument was made of sex [1], "don't do it and you'll live longer", would that be a pleasureable way of living a longer life?

[1] which may not be true of humans, but it's not scifi either. Some species, like octopuses if I'm not mistaken, die after breeding (for the male this means "sometime after having sex", for the female it's more complicated).
There's always the mrustc[1] compiler that compiles Rust to C source files. So any platform that can compile C, can also compile Rust (with caveats of course).

Of course, this only means we could, it doesn't necessarily mean we should.

Fasting is good, and depending how strict you are...

Fasting promotes autophagy and improves insulin resistance, if you do actual fasting (no calories during fasting). Many people have what's called "metabolic syndrome" which is low insulin sensitivity (high insulin resistance) and that causes many problems eventually leading to Type 2 diabetes.

Fasting with small "breaks" (100-200cal snacks) breaks a true fast (>50cal) but still results in overall reduced calories, and is more sustainable for many (or a path towards true fasting).

You lose weight in fasting due to reduced calories. How you do it determines the benefits - merely reduced calories, or more. Some people have very little weight loss with reduced calories diets b/c their metabolism (insulin sensitivity) is really messed up and won't see benefit until they do true fasting.

I like OMAD (one meal a day) as it feels the "easiest", though I have done regular multi-day fasts in the past and the hardest part is figuring out what to do with yourself since you're not spending time cooking/eating.

A good book is The Obesity Code[1], with lots of background and fasting schedules.

Really, the most benefit I've had from fasting is resetting my appetite - I am now satiated and full from a "normal" meal, and thus eating a reasonable amount of food. I used to easily be able to eat a large pizza and then a pint of ice cream every night (obv that leads straight to obesity). Now 3-4 slices of pizze + side salad is more than enough to fill me up and I have some pieces of chocolate for dessert.

funny, but false.

the only sense in which the relationship between C & C++ is like that of a cybertruck to a bicycle is the one in which the latter are "transportation devices" and the former are "programming languages". there is no particular feature of a bicycle represented by a cybertruck other than "it gets you somewhere".
Honestly, after being in the software industry for a couple of decades and seeing how many times folks attempt to reinvent the wheel (for commercial or other reasons), I am beginning to sigh when I see how many language zealots there are (not you, just in general). The reality is, Rust does not need to replace everything. Nor should it be held on some kind of pedestal.

E.G. Curiosity rover is doing just fine running on millions of lines of C.

https://vdocuments.mx/monitoring-the-execution-of-space-craf...

If it's going to impact OS stability and decrease performance and portability of the humble, dependable, simple C, it doesn't belong in the core. C is better than Rust for OS development.
Sounds cool. What's the complexity of running this kind of recursive reasoning? Reasonable? Can you suggest any tools to not have to implement it ourselves?
This thread brings to mind an issue I’ve wondered about:
For hard real-time systems, do people use specialized CPU’s and hardware? Caches can introduce hard-to-predict timing issues. I’m sure there are other aspects of modern hardware that present similar problems; large pipelines? Speculative instruction execution? Does Intel Time-Coordinated Computing address some of these hardware issues? Are there embedded CPU’s from TI, Intel, AMD, etc. that are specifically designed to support predictable and understandable “lockstep” hard real-time time behavior?
Fair enough. This does seem like one of those things that’s so simple that no-one thinks “oh I will grab the library to work with it”. That’s kind of a good thing, I mean JSON is so simple but I still use a library for reading and writing
The goal is not to get rid of all cars.

The goal is to be less car-centric.

Those 10 kids, once they get older, will want to go to places, meet friends, and participate in activities. If the only option is a car, then you or someone else must be their chauffeur. Quite a few parents do it, but not all enjoy it.

If the place you live were less car-centric, you could give each of the older kids a bus pass and let them go places on their own, or your kids could walk and bike places on routes which are not shared with cars.
Yeah, there's very much a "cobbler's children have the worst shoes" aspect of this that some people don't get.
> Apple was a middle-man

Who negotiated with IP owners for unprecedented music availability, then removal of DRM.

With Apple TV, they are IP owners for some content.
> You aren’t paying the full price for the roads you use

The large majority of the cost of roads is a sunk cost, because regardless of whether cars are used for individual transportation, roads would still be needed for delivery trucks, buses and emergency vehicles. The incremental cost of an additional car is generally not going to be more than what the car owner is paying in fuel taxes and property taxes on it.

> or the parking, or the zoning requirements which force almost every property owner to subsidize your transportation choice.

These are both the same thing. If you live in the suburbs, you paid for the space where you park your car. The actual problem is minimum parking requirements in cities, which are stupid and should be gotten rid of, but even if you did there would still be many people who want cars and choose housing that provides parking.

> You aren’t paying for the additional healthcare required for the people who live around where you drive

Modern cars are pretty clean in terms of particulate emissions, to the point that the exhaust is actually cleaner than the air that went into the engine in some of the cities with dirtier air.

> or compensating them for the lowered quality of life

This isn't math. Are you proposing to compensate them for the lowered qualify of life of not having a car? If someone else has kids, do I get to bill them for the cost of having to compete with their kids for scarce resources? Or should I bill them for not having kids and depriving society of their contributions?

Everything everybody does affects the whole of society. At some point you either have to accept that they'll make choices you don't like and in exchange you get to make choices they don't like, or you have to embrace totalitarianism, in which one person gets to make decisions they like and if anybody else doesn't like it they can go to prison.

> or compensating for the impact your much greater carbon emissions profile has on the entire planet.

This isn't really a cars thing, it's a burning fossil fuels thing. You can perfectly well charge an electric car entirely from solar panels.
Maybe rust if you ignore all the stuff you think looks complicated.
The instant that you have hassle-free FFI, it seems like you've given up on memory safety. Heck, just yesterday I got a segfault in a Python project because a library that I pulled in was just a wrapper for a faulty C module.

You can have all the memory safety in the world within the bounds of your own language, but it mostly gives you an illusion of security if the common pattern in the community is to just wrap C libraries. Having FFI be a bit of a hassle can actually go a long way towards shaping the community towards stronger memory safety.

For anyone who is interested in the technical details, there is extensive developer documentation covering version 3 in English here:

If you browse that you can see that the project has already moved quite a bit away from its Android Open Source roots.

The next version appears to be based on a new micro-kernel similarly to Google Fuchsia, ditch what remains of Android, support phone, tablet and desktop devices. And there is a rumour of a new programming language too.
The authors spun it out into a startup, Feldera. A paper describing their idea also won Best Paper at VLDB 2023. The idea is very far from dead.

Congrats on the author. I've lost 18kg over a year, but reached a plateau. I'm now trying to gain muscles to be able to burn more kcal per day.

On a side note, the article started in US customs (pounds), and then uses kcal for measuring the energy, and finally uses grams and g/lb for proteins. Just switch to metric :)
Google pretty much exploded 8n size around 2003 which, as luck would have it, coincided with a major US led invasion of oil rich country and major US companies being asked to spy on everyone.
What about when the evidence is fake? Remember when there was evidence of WMDs in Iraq? I also think liberals/progressives like to cloak themselves in 'science' but they thought COVID risks were an order of magnitude greater than what they actually were... I think there's a huge error that they still refuse to acknowledge. Why should we trust the media when they repeatedly get things wrong and then never admit it? Rachel Maddow and Sean Hannity are two sides of the same coin.
Keeping weight off turns out to be way harder than losing weight.

Not that losing weight is easy; just way easier.

You'll notice that almost any comment or post about successful weight loss is written when the weight loss is recent. And of course, people tend to talk about their recent success, so fair enough.

But I almost see people going around saying, this or that worked great for me 3 years ago, and I'm still doing great. I know it happens, and to me, that's the more interesting secret. (And that said, there's a nice counterexample in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39082494 - 13 years!)

I've successfully lost a lot of weight through sheer force of will a few times when I was younger and competitive and had people to compete with.

I've successfully lost a lot of weight through ketogenic diet a few times before, and that has had better success at sticking. It's lasted up to 2 years, which is still great. But still comes back eventually. Eventually I stop being strict about macros and start just kinda labeling some food as keto and sticking to that, and that doesn't work.

Right now I'm on Mounjaro, one of the new weight loss drugs like Ozempic. This is truly the lazy (but expensive) way to lose weight. And of course I know I need a plan for keeping it off once I lose it all, if I wish to stop taking the drug.
If those devices really need updates then the vendor can fork BSD and do the updates they need. It's not like the existing code will stop working on them.

This is also why we LTS versions.

Oh hey, that's in my neck of the woods, sort of. The John Day fossil beds are worth a trip as well as the Painted Hills. That area has some spectacular scenery that feels almost southwestern, with buttes and canyons and rivers. One of my favorite bits of Oregon that doesn't get many visitors.

I have, and in both of those countries it is difficult and dangerous. Safety standards are extremely different, speeds are slower - traffic conditions and quality life is so uncomparable to the US that I'm finding it difficult to believe that if you've been to those countries you're not intentionally cherry picking here.

I'm using a similar method. Have a single goal for each day. That is the "commit" for the day. If you achieve it it's fine, if not just choose a new goal for the next day and try again.

Sometimes I don't achieve the goal but still choose a new goal for the next day. If time passes you learn something new or things change and your former goal is not important anymore. If the goal is on a list you still have to achieve it because it's on your list.

I have no idea if this will work for anyone else and I don't have any data on which components are more important than others or how they interact, but the following is how I lost 35 kgs down to my target of 79 kg. from 1st of January 2023 to 15th May 2023, a weight which I retain +/- 2 kg. as of today.

I walk 10 km every day, no exceptions. (I still do this)
I had a banana + coffee w. skimmed milk for breakfast.
I had a plate of 2/3 heavy vegs (e.g. carrot, cabbage) 1/3 protein for lunch.
I had ONLY one serving of whatever we were having for dinner.
No alcohol, beer, crisps, candy at home - ever.
When we went out I drank and ate whatever everyone else did.

Those are the broad strokes. Feel free to ask any questions you might have.
I know they don't rely on GPL much, but what does the ruling here suggest for OSS foundations like Apache and CNCF? Specifically this part: only the author can initiate the lawsuit.

Does that mean failure to adhere to the terms of licenses like ASLv2 or MIT would could only be settled in court if the person who wrote the code actually bring suit and that OSS foundations basically become (more) toothless?
"kilogram calorie" - it's the unit that we colloquially refer to as a "calorie" in the US for nutrition purposes.

That maintenance requirement is just "keeping the cells alive when you're laying in bed in a coma" - actually using those muscles obviously requires more energy than that. Maintaining muscle mass is more than just a function of calories, though - in part because it's more expensive tissue, the body will try to make up caloric deficits from muscle before fat. Building and maintaining muscle requires that you keep your body in a state of muscle synthesis, which is itself a very metabolically-expensive process.

Numbers for energy/lb/day of muscle range from 6kcal-50kcal depending on who you're listening to, but the thing that everyone agrees on is that regardless of the number, muscle is multiple times more expensive than equivalent fat to maintain.

Definitely my least favorite of the new additions. The rest of them are good but I have a feeling auto and typeof on the left hand of an assignment are both going to be considered no-nos in real codebases.

I think they obfuscate things unnecessarily. In C++ it's understandable because with templates you have a tendency to have massively complicated type names.

Everything else looks great to me though.
