That's why I think C# is did the industry a great service by introducing LINQ. It really drove a movement to adopting some functional-style idioms in lots of languages, even Java in the end with it's stream API. It at least got functional programming's foot in the door among industry standard OOP languages. Still a long way to go though.

As far as I can tell, the verdict is very much in. You should not build a vented attic, especially in a climate like Florida. For example:

https://buildingscience.com/documents/insights/bsi-015-top-t...

(And there are plenty of papers like this.)

You have hot, humid air in your attic. You have much cooler air below your ceiling. You have something fluffy in between, which is almost certainly inadequate to keep said hot humid air away from your ceiling. So the hot humid air diffuses and otherwise reaches your ceiling, where it leaks through your ceiling, heats your ceiling, and condenses on your ceiling. And it’s essentially impossible to seal all the gaps. (And you have wood structural members going right through the insulation, and most structural designs make it essentially impossible to insulate them, so you may well have cold structural wood in your hot, humid attic. This is not a good situation.)

Oh, Florida also has hurricanes. Attic vents can let wind driven rain in and they can contribute to roof failures during high wind:

https://buildingscience.com/documents/insights/bsi-088-venti...

Instead, you can seal and insulate your roof deck, skip the insulation above your ceiling, and treat your attic as conditioned space.

The climates where a vented attic is less unreasonable are perhaps places with mild, dry weather and no wildfires. So maybe urban areas in Northern and Central CA? There aren’t too many places like this.
Graph drawing tools are also very underwhelming, they work pretty good for small graphs until you have something like 500 nodes or more, then eventually their output becomes complete incompressible or very difficult to look at it, they miss the ability to automatically organize those graph in hierarchical structures and provide a nice interface to explore them, we are used that everything around us have some kind of hierarchy, I think that is the same kind of problem that will need to be solved in order to have a generic graph data type, also this kind of thing will need to be implemented at the compiler level where those graph generic algos will be adapted to the generated hierarchy of structures, and if you add a theorem prover that can check that certain subgraph will always have certain structures you can statically generated those procedures and for the other super graphs those methods will be generated dynamically at runtime.

So whoever solve the problem for generic graph drawing will have the ability or the insight to implement this too.
I think maybe they're talking about how, in order to create a data structure where two nodes contain a reference (edge) to each other, you have to resort to mutation. i.e. you have to create A, then B with reference to A, then mutate A to refer to B, or you have to create B, then A with reference to B, then mutate B to refer to A.

Though this ignores that there are other ways to represent graphs, such as adjacency matrices, etc.
VA healthcare sucks because people are more comfortable paying lip service to veterans than in actually helping veterans have better lives after their service is over. We're perfectly happy to say "Thank you for your service" but nobody is willing to fund things like a functioning medical system or a working payroll system for the military. You know, things that actually improve the quality of their lives.

This is absolutely a problem we can fix.
What do you mean by visually debug? If you install `probe-rs` and do `cargo run`, you can print whatever you want to console; not related to the IDE. (Not sure if this is what you're looking for, or something else)

IIRC, Ansible, unlike Puppet or Salt, didn't require anything particular provisioned on the server - just old good SSH.

Or the ones writing code where security doesn't matter, like HFT and video games (the former have no users, and the latter are basically impossible to make crack-resistant even if they're written entirely in Rust).
I am not offended at all, just curious and your reply confirmed my assumption?

Genuinely, how did you get offended out of that?
i run cat6 for 10gb link. SFP+ dongles were running at 95C. I had to glue on them heatsinks and add fans to switch to keep their temperature down, otherwise switch could shut it down.

From my experience in the embedded world, the ecosystem doesn't seem super relevant. You may depend on certain libraries for encryption, compression, etc. but you're more likely than not to be writing drivers for all of your devices more or less from scratch.

Other than Arduino, which of course has pretty good support for many devices and is likely to work out of the box.
Do you think being a piece of technology means that it can't also be art?

> In Java, culturally speaking, you don't see much immutability, but when you have immutability

This isn't strictly true. Almost all Java code I see day to day are immutable classes outside of those being used with JPA.

> I told him it was an advanced practice just 10 years ago

This is a problem that can affect everyone, especially those working in more isolated areas. You come out with a great workflow in year X that's 5 years ahead of the industry, and it works, so you never progress.

Meanwhile the industry catches up, solving the problem another way, but you never learn because it's a step backwards, until it isn't, and then it's a massive learning curve.

You have to actively keep up with what the industry is doing and be willing to adopt the new ways of working even when they are in some ways a step backwards.
I've got a M2 Max MBP I'm not using yet because there's no way to get sshfs/fuse working with free as in freedom software on macOS, and Asahi doesn't support external displays yet, so it can't take over for my ThinkPad T440p with either OS.

Package management and package availability is much worse in the macOS world. Nix is weirdly broken, at least the ARM macOS packages. Homebrew is okay but not very good, similar to Chocolatey on Windows.

When you need extra software for something on macOS, chances are it's proprietary and may even cost money. This is not the norm at all in the GNU/Linux world, and it comes off as quite disturbing to me. It's like a community of everyone scamming and mistreating each other instead of working together to improve things.

I'm not even a dev, for the record. GNU/Linux is just what works best for me.
VGM is all over the place.

I used to like working to the Hotline Miami soundtrack myself, which worked great for coding menial stuff but sucked for troubleshooting.

The Unreal Tournament '99 OST is way better in that it's fast, low-key, and repetitive. I put on a 3-hour megamix and I'm crushing it until lunch.
Why are we talking about Microsoft's behavior 30 years ago in this thread about current Apple? Appalling diversionary tactic, that's what it is. I guess the parallel I can draw here is that just as you shouldn't defend whatever unrelated crap Microsoft pulled off in the 90s,you shouldn't defend the crap Apple is pulling off today.
Seems like a great loss for mankind. Hire the best people in the world, and then disincentivize them from innovating.
OK, sure, I plugged this into a sim flight planner (http://onlineflightplanner.org/). This is on a Dreamliner.

Heathrow - Changi: 63933 kgs

Heathrow - Tehran: 26957 kgs
Tehran - Changi: 39580 kgs

So at least based on this it's not too much of a difference, only 4% more with a stop. (Tehran looked to be roughly in the middle on the flight plan between London and Singapore.)
> It's Rust-like to the author because that's probably where he learned

I like about HN that everyone is so friendly about this type of thing. I personally don’t have a lot of patience for people who think new things are the greatest inventions and ‘the old is catching up’ (in this case Java catching up with Rust) while everything came from elsewhere originally. If you want to openly say these things, please research them first and attribute properly. But indeed it is good here we try to educate not shame or insult like some other communities.

Anyway: I would say people should learn bottom-up as we don’t need to invent the wheel every few years that way.

Not yet, but that's one of the big impending projects.
Every time I sit through a hellish long distance flight I wonder the same thing. The closest anyone’s got is Air New Zealand’s Sky couch - which is a minor improvement on the status quo rather than a reimagining of it.

There’s been so much innovation in business class, but relatively little in economy over the last few decades. Is it because airlines are afraid of cannibalising their business seats? Or regulatory issues regarding non-standard seats?

If anyone can figure out how to give me a lie flat bunk for the same weight and volume per passenger as economy (or even premium economy) they’ve got my business for eternity. Sitting down for 11 hours would feel like torture in comparison.

The Hardest Problem
They don't though, because I can buy an insurer and also a medical provider, and pay the medical provider the 80% and then collect my profits through my pet medical provider.
Async and multithreading are not the same thing. Async is about non-blocking execution between functions.

JavaScript is inherently async because the concept of the event loop is baked into the very language runtime itself.

In Java you can achieve a single threaded async runtime by instantiating a SingleThreadExecutor and having all your application code running as jobs posted to this executor. But because you can opt out of this model or use something like a ThreadPoolExecutor it's harder to bake in an `async` keyword into the language that is as simple as you have in JavaScript.

Hrm, I have a repo like this for comparing Nomad and Agones.

I even have inspec profiles to test everything and it even supports windows (agones is teaching kubernetes to run gameservers so Windows and Gameservers is common)

Honestly I spent a good chunk of a month working on it, if there is any actual interest I could release it but I dont think anyone has the same problems I do.
Not a contrived example. happens to me often and iOS users are paralyzed when AirDrop doesn't work. (And like, it is possible but it's a lot harder than it should be.) People who transfer lots of media for work don't even bother, they just accept AirDrop as the only functional solution, which means you carry an iOS device.

I think history is at least a part of this. The software flow table implementation (which ubicloud demonstrates here, full disclosure, I work there) offers some speedup, but the motive appears closely coupled with hardware flow table offloading: https://lwn.net/Articles/738214/
This ruling is fairly specific to its facts, and is about a particular cause of action (financial mismanagement). While donors don't have standing for that cause of action by statute, it appears they do for breach of fiduciary duty: Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 17510.8. And that's the only CoA where they're relying on CA nonprofit law.

> I was surprised that SQ was the only third party airline to have its livery on Concorde, as I saw plenty of pictures of Concordes with Braniff livery on on side.

"Domestic flights between Dallas-Fort Worth and Washington Dulles airports were operated by Braniff with its own cockpit and cabin crews. During the domestic flights, the Braniff's registration numbers were affixed to the fuselage with temporary adhesive vinyl stickers. At Washington Dulles, the cockpit and cabin crews were replaced by ones from Air France and British Airways for the continued flight to Europe, and the temporary Braniff registration stickers were removed. This process was reversed after alighting in Washington Dulles from Europe for the domestic flights to Dallas-Fort Worth."

RAM usage even vs Intel Mac was completely different - I did push my M1 Air a while back and it complained about running out of memory but that was once in the past 1.5 years after I'd skipped rebooting for 4/5 weeks. On my Intel with 16GB this happened more often.

For my kids and parents, the M1 Air has been flawless (even for me - it's my travel Mac). But if you know you're a heavy user definitely get more RAM.
Yes that’s true, the “smarter people than I failed at this” factor is definitely a form of solace.

At least for the ssd1306 and the sh1106 there is in fact a library for it that works well.

I recently started working on a rust-esp32 project because I'm far too lazy to properly deal with json in C. It was basic, some buttons, a display, an encoder, and a web api but it was a breeze. I'd really like to continue on more complex projects in the future. I've somehow avoided writing C++ in an embedded setting and now I'm afraid I might have to go back and learn that rather than continue with Rust.
I'm in total support of you not having children "to starve the bourgeoisie". I want to do all that I can to help you remain true to this strategy as long as you feel this way!
A sales rep who negotiates a 30-day payment term instead of a 45-day payment term is cash-wise. The company can get the money sooner and is able to put it to use elsewhere.

Well yes but at the cost of the customer’s goodwill. Now you’ve potentially lost the customer in the long-term for an extremely low short-term benefit. “Premature optimization is the root of all evil” should apply to business as much as it does coding.
No, but they control access to nearly 100% of the IOS market (all devices except a tiny number of rooted ones).

That is a sensible definition in some cases because their terms for developers, app store charges etc. apply to that whole market. There is also a lot of lock-in and control: Spotify (much less any smaller business) cannot realistically get people to switch to Android to use their app - and with a duopoly that would not be an effective tactic long term anyway.

That's so extremely backwards in relation to everything else it's mind boggling. 16 gb being considered and priced at premium, where I had a single chrome tab eating 3gb easily few time's recently.
I still think it's a bit of a reach to say that Firefox "reversed a browser monopoly" -- while 30% was significant, MSIE remained utterly dominant until Chrome hit the market, especially once Google started pushing the browser via their various properties.
The reliability issues are real. I have a MacBook Air that is 11 years old now, I haven't done anything but replace the battery, and it still works fine. The only real issue is that the memory is not upgradable, otherwise it would still be a generally useful machine (instead of just light web browsing and Zoom).
> Anecdotally, my Framework 13 AMD ran me 1500 and I ended up with 64 GB of ram, 2 TB of storage, and an AMD 7840U. I bought my RAM and storage separately to get that end cost, to be fair.

HN used to say that System76 were the best laptops ever, so I bought two of them. They’re an incredible pile of shit, in addition to the battery life or the clunky build, the fans turn on and off like my gamer boyfriend’s PC back in 2001.

System76 said they won’t take them back, after I tried to give it to every intern.

I’m absolutely flaggerblasted at what Linux or Windows users tolerate, it seems fine for them, since all of their laptops is like this! The problem is having low standards, and compared to this, they think their laptop is great.

There's two different things people are upset about here that I see.

1. The LLM might output GPL (or other restricted) code if you turn off the filters.

This one I see as a non issue.

2. The LLM benefited from GPL code and various copyrighted content in its training.

This is more complicated and for the courts to decide. My personal opinion is that as long as you as the end user are not publishing the output copyrighted content it shouldn't matter, and if you are then the owner of that copyright should pursue justice through the existing processes.
I have done darkroom work some 35 years ago and I can only say how relieved I am that we've moved into a world of digital sensors.
A big factor is how these machines age too, though. 4 years ago the 2020 M1 Macbook Air dropped, and it's still a fantastic computer today. On the other hand, I don't think I would enjoy using a 4 year old Lenovo Ideapad today

While that's a fair point, I also have to wonder how much of that is actually lost sales, vs. people who wouldn't have bought the games otherwise, or didn't have a Switch to play on, or etc.

Personally, I paid for a copy of Tears of the Kingdom when it came out, but only because I had a Switch I could borrow from someone to play it on - if I hadn't had that option, I wouldn't have bought a Switch just to play one game, and I just wouldn't have bought the game at all.

Had they released the game on PC as well as Switch, I would have bought it for PC, but that's not an option. As it stands, either you have to own an overpriced and underpowered console, even if you only want to play one Nintendo game, or you can pirate the game and play it on PC, and have a much better experience than on a real Switch. Nintendo is somewhat bringing this upon itself in my opinion and I don't feel much sympathy for their lost profits, real or imagined.
Why are we expecting a blind woman to be fast, anyways?
Additional software being free by default is definitely an advantage Linux has, although usually not the benefit I see pointed to by most Linux users.

That being said I am a dev and a designer and I can't think of any paid software I use beyond Figma (which is free for basic use) and Texts.app which doesn't have any free or paid equivalent on Linux.
I'm always a bit irritated when editors still use inch measurements exclusively, when it's only used in 3 countries officially still.

Not talking about screen sizes obviously, but I really don't have an intuition for what 'less than half an inch' thickness is and I'm sure there are a _lot_ of people who use English as their interface language outside of the US.

This makes sense. Precedents ruled by mistake/etc. should not set the law.
The read threads block because the ReadWriteLock algorithm tries to prevent thread starvation (i.e. when the exclusive lock never gets acquired). Most ReadWriteLock implementation alternate between giving the read locks then the exclusive locks access to the lock.
Obviously piracy plays a large (maybe the largest?) role here, though I wouldn't overlook the modding use case. I would be quite interested in running titles I legitimately own on more powerful hardware where I can play around with the resolution and framerate freely (and would have already used Yuzu for this purpose by now, but for laziness).
A friend’s dad worked at IBM in the 80s and 90s. They told the story of his “million dollar car”, a Nissan Z that he sold Microsoft stock to buy in the early 90s.

Not quite as impressive as this $6M Corvette, but still a fun story.
I interpret that as knowing that a particular claim is possible and reasonably likely.
I think the rule only applies to device of a specific size (but that size might be laptop). Either way, Apple offers USB C as an option. You can have proprietary features (like MagSafe for all other Apple devices), but you must offer USB C to sell in the EU.
This is the only way for me. I generally have one repo for Terraform to provision the k8s nodes, wherever they may live, and another with Ansible to provision the k8s services and some basic operators like observability stack for example.
