An XML document without a schema is strictly worse than JSON without a schema. JSON with a schema is strictly better than XML with a schema. XML structure does not map neatly into the data types you actually want to use. You do not want to use a tree of things with string attributes, all over your code. If you do have a schema, the first thing you will want to do is turn your data into native language data types. After that point, the serialization method does not matter anymore, and XML would have just be slower. Designing a schema for XML is also more tedious than for JSON.
how stupid that title is. in a universe governed by mathematics and explainable by science, you dare write "may have" you fsck piece of S ? you think there is ANYTHING in this fscking universe that CANNOT have an explanation ?

get back to school to learn basics and go read a fscking dictionary. and get some science gulped down that empty brain.

how come evolution did not get us rid of those stupid people writing stupid articles titles ?

is there any fscking thing in this universe that may not have an explanation, you stupid fsck ?
It’s about likelihood.

There are all sorts of things that can influence consumption patterns. Change in climate could result in fewer sources of food as drought or inclement stunted certain crops which cascaded into fewer food sources for upstream predators where at the apex we had our fore-bearers who may had decimated populations till there were not enough to sustain the species.
The article did not present the criticisms enough. It's mostly about bodily autonomy.

Imagine if 1/3 of the world gave their babies botex or other face modifications after birth because they thought their babies looked ugly and I was on here defending the baby's rights to not be unnecessarily modified without their consent.

Then you come on here and joke about how passionate I must be about other people's faces. It's not about the faces or genitalia, it's about one's right to bodily autonomy.

I drink 3-4 cups using an espresso machine at home, but whenever I travel I find that my 3-cup moka pot makes almost as good tasting coffee consistently. Some tips:

- use a quality hand grinder; I have comandante: https://twitter.com/sridca/status/1743941231112273969

- put the Aeropress paper filter in the moka filter so you don't get grinds in your coffee.

I am not completely sure, but I think pretty much all frameworks in Rust have complex dependencies and codebase not optimized for fast compile times. You could check out Axum [1], at the first glance seems similar to actix [2]. Both use tokio which is by itself pretty big I think.

Folks at makepad poured enormous effort in keeping dependency graph minimal.

Your problem, and I mean this sincerely and respectfully, is that you're not using your text editor / IDE correctly. Adding two or four spaces of indentation is done by pressing TAB! Once. Most editors will do know how to do this out of the box, but if yours doesn't you need to change it.
"Ads" was bought (DoubleClick) and in fact I've seen it referred to as the best acquisition in the internet era, as measured by what they paid for it vs the revenue directly attributed to it.

YouTube was bought as well.

Android was bought as well.

Ads, YouTube and Android are valuable tech. Analytics, Gmail, Docs, Calendar are all shitty apps. Not in the sense that they're bad, just in the sense that there's nothing innovative about them.

Of everything that you mentioned in your list, the only ones that are genuine Google innovations are Search and Maps.
I think that's a fair point when you hear stories about people who are hired and then laid off within a couple months (or sooner). Nobody can predict the far future with accuracy, but those kinds of stories usually just point to corporate incompetence and the company usually could have planned better.

But when it comes to cases where economic and business conditions have drastically changed, I don't think it's reasonable that we expect business leaders to have crystal balls for years in the future.

Relevant study:

Look up the gender equality paradox in Nordic countries. Nordic countries are the most egalitarian countries in the world that offer the best equal opportunities for men and women. The initial conclusions were that as Nordic countries made opportunities for either gender more equal the differences in choice for careers between genders became more pronounced.

There's various cooked interpretations of the result from agenda based groups but those are the initial results. This person illustrates the whole study the best:

https://youtu.be/_iudkPi4_sY?si=DPtr46-vw94sa70v

It's hard to draw a definitive conclusion from the study due to all the controversy and various parties cooking the numbers for their own agenda but take from it what you will, but the initial conclusion was that most of this is biological.
IPv6 devotes a giant chunk of space to ephemeral link-local connections, if I recall correctly, at least a /64. So you'd need about 10^18 nanobots or so before you start to have to worry about link local address exhaustion.

These do not have to be globally unique, just unique on the local network.

I was fascinated by "At Home In The Universe" back in the 90s. But this seems like a rehashing of the same ideas, without new evidence or theory. Anything new here?
Yeah; and the merging is correct in all cases. You don't get spurious conflicts like you can with git.

Also the same system can work both in realtime and offline scenarios. And CRDTs can handle a lot more than just plain text editing.

That said, one thing git does that I like is that sometimes I want conflict markers to be added to my document when concurrent edits happen on the same line. CRDTs (and REGs like this) store strictly more information than git does, so theoretically it should be possible to make a CRDT which adds conflict markers too like git does. But as far as I know, nobody has built that yet! I really hope someone does, because it would be really neat.

I really want a git style version control system built on top of CRDTs with optional merge conflicts.
There’s lots of crap on Arxiv.

Git is just the underlying mechanism. What you show to the user depends on your UX/UI. You don't need to show users the words "fork/merge" even. How about:

1. "Edit Joe's text"

2. "Ask Joe for a review"

3. "Do you want to add Alice's changes?"
No, because AI is (for now at least) shaped and constrained by us humans rather than developing free based on the laws of the universe. Is it really "evolution" if a judge can rule that it violates copyright and stop all progress overnight? Or a random developer can add a bit of code to make sure the answers appease the right set of people?

What we have today is a crude software approximation mimicking what we think AI should be, but that AI itself is nowhere in sight.

Any metal we find after 2000 years is a miracle. So the amount of these dodecahedrons indicate that there were a lot more in circulation at the time.

2000 years of poor and homeless people looking for any metal they can sell as scrap.

That's why I don't buy the apprentice argument that always pops up in these discussions.

In this case you'd be excused for saying it's some sort of ritualistic object. Because rituals are important in people's lives, important enough to create and carry around metal and stone objects with you. And rituals pervade all of society.

I don't claim to know what it is, but I think it was either very important to some ritual, or very practical to some trade.

If you have an erroneous view of life and it's origins on earth, you'll come up with variations of this type of thinking.

Show HN: A tool for calculating MAU and DAU of subreddits
Hi! I built a tool for calculating the monthly active users (MAU) and daily active users (DAU) of subreddits:

https://subkpi.com

I mod a small subreddit and wanted to get some metrics to help me understand how fast the sub is growing, whether people engage, etc. I get to see the number of unique visitors from Reddit's dashboard, but not the number of users who post or comment. This web app considers the latter to be “active users”, a better measure of engagement, I think.

I decided to build my own tool to calculate these metrics, it's also another opportunity to improve my coding skills. It calculates both MAU and DAU for recent time periods (7dy, 1mo, 3mo, 1yr, ytd) and their evolution considering the data available to the app (data is downloaded from Reddit's public API, so it's subject to rate limits; everything happens on the browser).

I hope it helps other mods too!
Where exactly is the line drawn for how much and what type of human intervention is required? When I cook food, human intervention is causing chemical reactions that change the composition of the food. I doubt many people consider grill marks to be unnatural or synthetic.

I live in a major city and the air would be better if everyone drove EVs, especially the trucks. Another major win is that renewables once installed (even if the materials are acquired from China) are energy produced locally which is a national security win.

Above that, I don't agree that EVs are reducing carbon by an order of magnitude given the way batteries are manufactured and the current mix of electricity generation. If you have a home charger and can have a second gas car for trips in rural areas (if you need that) then a pure EV can work. But a 100% transition to all EVs is unrealistic. It doesn't have to be all or nothing, and it becomes yet another wedge issue in American society that is going to cause a lot of social strife.

Should be so common, right? Yet we're struggling to find any form of life. Not complex, just anything that lives.
I often use the Fibonacci numbers mod 10 when I need to do this in my head. It isn't great -- odd numbers are twice as frequent (because mod 2 they're [1,1,0]) and you get sequences like [7,0,7,7], but easy to keep track of and the cycle is 60 elements long.

The other one I use sometimes is the powers of 2 mod 100 and use the leading digit. This gives a cycle length of 20 with a flat distribution.

Makes you wonder what comes after AI. What's the "higher order" after AI that exists today or that will exist in 10 years? I'd guess we will never understand that level of intelligence, unless AI augments our brains somehow.
This is going to change, as EVs get better. BYD is the benchmark to evaluate against right now.
Ask HN: How do you track runtime versions in use by your systems?
I work for a large organisation with over 2000 systems spread across serverless functions, virtual machines and PaaS providers and projects are written in Java, Go, Python and JavaScript.

Although we already maintain lots of valuable data about all of our systems, we're looking to better understand which software runtimes are in use, for example Node.js v18.18 or Python v3.6. This information will help us to ensure we remain up-to-date and as secure as we can be across the org.

For some resources understanding which runtimes are currently in use is straightforward; for example AWS Lambda is unambiguous and the information is an API call away, but for PaaS and containers it's proving more challenging.

Various tools are in use already which can report a software bill of materials (SBOM) - Trivy, Syft, Snyk, even GitHub - but whilst these can list dependencies installed by various package managers, none currently report the runtime/s when directed towards a code repository or Docker image.

So how do you track runtime versions across your organisations? Do you scan your code repositories for pom.xml files, or install agents in containers, or demand teams send reports at deploy time? I'd love to know!

> One might say who cares if they don't define it? Well, if you don't define it, there's no point in discussing whether it exists, how it came to be, or what it comprises.

This is not how we normally treat other concepts, even in physics or mathematics. Concepts can exist and even be studied for a long time while lacking a rigorous definition.

For example, a truly rigorous and satisfying definition of natural numbers probably dates from the 19th century. Does that mean that people before this shouldn't have discussed natural numbers? For another example, the Dirac delta function was used in the study and teaching of QM while not being very well defined as a mathematical object (it's not an actual function, for example).

In general, most interesting concepts begin life as some kind of vague intuition, and it often takes significant study to create a formal definition that captures the intuition well. This applies to any kinds of concepts, even in mathematics.
I didn't by one for running cost reasons; more safety and speed. However, anecdotally it seems to chew through tires - which isn't mentioned, but is obvious with a quite heavy powerful car - and they're relatively expensive. Charging, some placed really gouge you - I mostly charge at home (~0.115k/wh), and some local places are 3-5x that; home charging is the cheapest I've found.
Someone has to ask the question: How many vector DBs do we really need? How do the vector DB companies differentiate themselves? And why do we need a company at all when there are increasingly awesome open source options?

I genuinely ask - there are a lot of other problems in the RAG, fine tuning, AI/LLM, retireval space, to solve. And more and more vector retrieval is, while not 100% solved, at least is something the community has a grasp on the tradeoffs. Solved to the point that squeezing a bit more recall out of vector retrieval isn't the problem anymore.
I agree, and I just want to highlight what you said about generating a config file. It's extremely useful to constrain the config itself to something that can go in a json file or whatever. It makes the config simpler, easier to consume, and easier to document. But when it comes to _writing_ the config file, we should all use a programming language, and preferably a statically typed language that can check for errors and give nice auto complete and inline documentation.

I think aws cdk is a good example of this. Writing plain cloudformation is a pain. CDK solves this not by extending cloudformation with programming capabilities, but by generating the cloudformation for you. And the cloudformation is still a fairly simple, stable input for aws to consume.
The air quality is what I mostly look forward to. I bike 10km 1 way on my commute and it would be so much more enjoyable if the air quality was better.

I enjoy JSON for internal stuff and where it does not matter that JSON is not very expressive. JSON Schema is a poor substitute for a proper schema. For anything where I am interfacing with another person or team, I send them a DTD or XSD, which documents the attributes and does not have nonsense like confusing integers and floating point values.

For quick and dirty, I agree about JSON. For serious data interchange, I use XML.
A faulty translation to an obscure language is better than not having certain information available at all in that language, so I think "litter" is an unfair label.

'That means that as trillions of bits of data are ingested for AI training operations, regions under-represented on the web, such as African nations and other countries with more obscure languages, will face greater challenges in establishing reliable—and grammatical—large language models. With few native resources to draw upon, they must heavily rely on tainted translations flooding the market.'

I sat in on one of Stephen Wolfram’s YouTube lectures on his new physics project, and asked him about his conception of life in the big picture of physics.

His perspective was that (if I may take the liberty of paraphrasing him) there’s nothing particularly special about life from the perspective of physics. What we call life simply correlates to parts of the physical world that have the highest degree of complexity and internal structure.

Life is not binary.
There is nothing "expected" in a truly random universe. You cannot have your cake and eat it, there is either some sort of 'order' in the universe or there is none. You cannot place forms of order where it suits you but reject it when it doesn't.

All I can say from personal experience is that I’ve had a Tesla model 3 for 5+ years, and its maintenance has been virtually zero as Tesla fixed the creaks and quirks under warranty. Downtime was maybe 4 days, whilst we got a replacement vehicle. Break fluid and tires were replaced. That’s it. Rock solid drive train. Still have 250miles range out of 310 originally.

Electric cost was roughly 1/3 of what gas should have been.
