I still don't see how this couldn't work with a `Neighbors(v)` function with an unspecified return type. The outputs I gave were examples of how it could be adapted for various use cases, not an exhaustive list of all possibilities; in the example with multiple edges with multiple weights, the output could instead be a relation of (v2, w, c) that indicates that v connects to v2 with weight w with c as the number different edges between the two with that weight.

Early in my real juggling days, learning mills mess, followed by Boston mess was eye opening. I'd self taught a three ball cascade and four ball columns a decade beforehand, waiting in a hospital ward. Learning those two messes, which for all their complexity, are just the same three ball cascade, opened my mind up to how much 'movement' could change what you were doing, and how it was perceived.
What is the point of having a shared space if you're not allowed to talk in it? This is how the Google office was and I hated it. This is coming from an introvert. I can have quiet at home. I do not see the point of commuting to a shared space and then having it be taboo to speak because everyone is in the same room.

Yuzu ran a private discord that was allegedly full of piracy activity. They didn't moderate it. Writing an emulator isn't illegal, nor would gate keeping features. Allowing piracy to happen in your paid for channel might make you more complicit/responsible.
I think they would have a hard time using copyright:

>Section 102 of the U.S Copyright Act sets forth what is and what is not subject to copyright protection.[3] The first part of the statute states the eight types of works which are subject to copyright protection such as; literary works, musical works, dramatic works, pantomimes and choreographic works, pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works, audiovisual works, sound recordings; and architectural works.[4] The second part of the statute states that copyright protection does not “extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery…”[5]

If you can't distinguish those, then that is bad software design.
MacOS also employs memory compression, so it's not necessarily swapping to disk.
It reacts with ozone to decompose into carbon dioxide, so methane not only has a much higher short-lived effect but later turns into CO2.
I would be resistant to change if a Native American group wanted my home city of Jacksonville to change it's name, because it's named after the perpetrator of atrocities against Native Americans (and also because he apparently never visited the city named after him).

Because there's more to a name than it's namesake. People attach memories and stories and feeling to names. And being told that this all needs to be updated because of bad things in the past by people that don't even live near you will always seem obnoxious.

This makes it sound like I'm against renaming anything, and I'm not. But I don't find it at all surprising when people push back against renaming things or removing monuments due to a reassessment of the past via a modern critical view.

> Yeah, it's wild that it's now treated as an authoritative source, especially by some news organizations.

> It's as good as asking a neighbor what happened with a loud noise down the street. Sometimes you'll get something good, sometimes it'll be completely wrong.

Asking my neighbors if they know what some loud noise was or about some local disturbance has been extremely reliable in my experience. The one time someone gave me an explanation about something which wasn't mostly right they qualified it with something like "So-and-so said it might be such-and-such but I don't know if it's true".

Well they're (presumably) not going after other electric car makers so I imagine the motivation has to be something somewhat unique about Tesla.

I can kinda see the fascism angle with Musk at the center because yeah you have the cult of personality thing, grandiose promises of changing the world, super anti-socialist anti-liberal (meaning political liberalism), techbro libertarian, scapegoating minorities and "wokeness" as the source of societies ailments. I don't think I agree with the analysis but it kinda fits if you squint so I see how they got there.

Green capitalism I assume they just mean as a synonym for greenwashing which I get but also Tesla isn't particularly egregious compared to other auto manufacturers.

And "a totalitarian technological attack" I can only assume is the fact that Tesla is the poster child for a car manufacturer retaining an iron grip on their product even after it's sold plus the 360 always on networked cameras. It's like the far-right conspiracy about "15 minute cities" but they arrived there taking the left path where it's capitalist shadow government controlling the movements of people instead of government.

Ah.. my high hopes were immediately dashed by the trash that is curl-bash.

Maybe someday we'll get an "Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative" that doesn't start with the worst possible way to install something.
That’s exactly why it’s also worth targeting. Its short residence time means that addressing methane emissions could make a meaningful impact. It’s not zero sum - we should address the low hanging fruit of methane emissions while also decarbonizing.

No. It seems you were incapable of understanding what I was saying ... which is MORE IS WORSE. In other words, the only people who think MORE IS WORSE is a meme are people who think the exceptions are the rule.

Almost always more regulation doesn't work in complex markets. Incentives are very very difficult to get right ... the exceptions where the regulations work are extremely rare. And for the most part people don't get them right.

Those people would be wrong. You can take all unexpected errors and stick them behind a generic error message like "something went wrong" but you should not lie to your users with your error message.

True, and you can even get the highest market cap as a hardware manufacturer who suck at software.
I’m in my 30s and resident at my parents house, on a continent I spend 30 days/year on average. My company is registered there even. Most people have a “home” (or mailing address) even if they don’t live there.
I picked it up on eBay recently and had to add an SSD, so I did a bit of cleaning on it then. Most normal usage is not bad, it makes for a great "document typing machine" and it still powerful enough for everyday use, and best of all - the previous owner had the battery replaced in 2021 so it only has about 350 cycles on the battery. If I do anything intensive with it though, it needs to be on a desk rather than my lap lol
It has nothing to do with Facebook; it's the trend of sending email from alternative domains like facebookmail.com that train users to trust unknown domain names.

It's particularly egregious with critical stuff like banking.
We’ve been grappling with making it local but two considerations

1. Haven’t figured out what should trigger updates. Every commit sounds crazy, every save would be perfect but too intensive also.

2. LLMs will not be self hosted. We haven’t been able to get the same results with any smaller LLMs

To answer your questions we definitely want to make this available for local repos and ideally self hosted, on a technical level that’s probably several month away.

I have been using HN daily since I was a teenager. I've seen that message maybe 10 times outside of serious issues in last 15 years. It's strange to me that it happens so frequently for you.
> What? I've never read a law passed by Congress that makes any reading material illegal.

That's correct. In the US, we have the First Amendment to prevent government interference, and the genesis of that law goes back to John Milton's Areopagitica.

On the flip side, that same document gives private business broad economic freedom,
and businesses are not afraid to use their economic power to suppress or bury ideas that threaten their profits.
"Target is turning to its competitors' playbook for a reason: Walmart CEO Doug McMillon told investors on the company's earnings call in February that Walmart+ members spend nearly twice as much as non-members and buy more over the course of a year."

Correlation does not imply causation. It's doubtful an occasional Walmart shopper is going to consider Walmart+ because he would get negligible benefits from it. Conversely an already heavy Walmart shopper would--because he would get significant benefits.
You can use it in all kinds of producer-consumer designs, but this seems quite dangerous in Go. It's like making a huge effort to remove all the safeties and then aiming at your foot.

It's also the perfect age to do something like that. No lifestyle inflation or real responsibility yet, so go and do something crazy while you're young and carefree.

I would recommend to any kid - if they can afford it/have the proper support system - to take off a year after finishing school and just explore. And if you need money, do try some freelancing and see if it suits you. And if you're done, you can always enter the 9-to-5 grind by entering the workforce proper.
Down Detector is so unreliable. People that can't call an AT&T phone via Verizon will think (and report) that Verizon is down, when it's really AT&T. People can try logging in using Facebook's on click login and not be able to get in, so they think Tiktok is down. It's not all that useful. I hate when journalists cite it.
I don’t lay into the horn like a jerk when someone is inattentive to a traffic light. I just give a quick tap to get them to snap out of whatever it is they’re distracted by. I also wait at least a few seconds. Most people seem to appreciate this because they don’t want to block traffic, either.
Show HN: I've made an AI powered interactive demo builder
Hi HN, Creator here!

Holoib is a platform that allows you to create interactive product demos in minutes and share them via a link or embed them anywhere. It also enables you to collect leads; you can add a form at the CTA of the demo. Additionally, using AI, you can translate the demos into different languages and add a synthetic voiceover.

In the last month of 2023, I launched this product. Since then, I have been continuously working on improving it. Initially, the product was very basic, but thanks to feedback from my users, it has been improving day by day.

If you try Holoib, I hope that you have a great experience! I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions. I would appreciate receiving all of them. Thank you :)

The fact that the author calls it a slab arena makes me think they did, indeed, intend for it to be used with a single type per arena. I do wonder why you'd want an allocator that is both slab and arena, though. I assume there is some use case but nothing immediately comes to mind.
Industry is firmly in C/C++ land and I'm trying to pivot towards a more embedded career, which would put me in more junior jobs without the political sway to say "lets try embedded rust and contribute back".

There's a couple forward thinking companies like memfault, but it seems to be the minority.

My degree was in CE so I've always played around with embedded projects, but actual design skills have stagnated from being in my field, which trends towards only developing smaller purpose built tools for internal use over products.
I didn't say hang on for ten years, I said people joining late stage series D companies like Stripe, Databricks, SpaceX etc.

Those are very likely to have multiple liquidity events before they even go public, and are known to pay more than FAANG. You're trading some liquidity and some security for a higher upside.

Those are the companies that have the best luck luring away FAANG engineers with higher comp (if things go well).
Honestly hetzner was never the 'high end / high quality' cloud provider for me.

They have decend hardware and infra but no encryption on rest and everything else a real business requires (certifications etc.).

But i'm so dismissive about all shitty crypto because no one ever showed me a good use case, as others said, i think its great that hetzner has this tos.

Some people just want to bring havoc and mayhem. There's no other motivation. They may babble some nonsense along the way, but that's just it. Nonsense. They want pure chaos. Nothing against that, I don't agree with them, but it's probably important to have a bit of a pure chaos in our lives to remind us what's important.

At least it's the better version of pure chaos than terrorism.

Macs are rather hardy computers and I used to see Thinkpad vs MacBook showdowns back in the day where people would run over both and other various things. The Mac’s would actually win a fair amount of the time because they’re less brittle.

Unlike iPhones, Macs are actually fairly hardy against physical damage. It’s a huge part of why I’ve been keen to buy them. Surviving a waist high drop is what I’d expect. The problem is the repair prices are FAR higher if something goes wrong.
What's the difference between this and Wine/Proton? I guess Microsoft EULA has similar conditions, if they were enforceable wouldn't Microsoft do the same and send a C&D to Wine devs?
I didn't want to go into that, but social sciences is indeed bad at proving things. At best they find a correlation, but a causal relation is very hard to determine. And that's aside from the bad methodology.

> there's really zero trust in using this

It's peer to peer, anyone using the protocol is entitled to share and collect as much data as the protocol permits, and the founders have no more power than any other user.

It's way less sketchy than anybody operating a server and asking you to trust that they're doing so responsibly--which is pretty much everybody.

I don't think that everything can or should be made zero-trust. But if this can, then that's a win.
The problem I'd like to see solved is source of truth. It'd be nice if there were a way to sign a repo with an ENS or domain withiut knowing the hash.

Another thing is knowing if the commit history has been tampered with without knowing the hash.

The reason for needing to not know the hash is for cases like tornado cash. The site and repo was taken down. There's a bunch of people sharing a codebase with differing hashes, you have no idea which is real or altered.

This is also important for cases where the domain is hacked.
On a psychological note, I think the threat detection part of our brain doesn't always notify our conscious thought that it's actively monitoring for threats. I've often noticed that when I'm carefully handling a hot frying pan then my ringing phone is more likely to startle me than usual.
Sure, but the moment you as a big company go live with something you have to automatically assume people will fuck with it. Surely someone out of Google's 130k staff who wasn't overworked with getting Gemini ready for launch had the chance to fuck with it and see where it fall short.
I don't see why this would prevent friendships. You don't have to be on the train 24 hours a day - just overnight while sleeping. If you have friends in Berlin you can arrive in Berlin in the morning, spend the day hanging out with them, then head back to the station at 10pm for a night train to somewhere else.

At its best this could enable you to maintain friendship groups in multiple cities.
That's a misunderstanding. The methane stays in the atmosphere a few years until it reacts with oxygen to CO2. So first you have the multiple times worse effect of CH4 and then you're left with CO2, which is still a greenhouse gas. You're left with CO2 either way, even when you burn the methane. That's why it's so bad. And that's why actually when companies or politicians tell you about "clean" gas, it's very misleading. There is significant leakage in production, transport and storage, before the gas even reaches a consumer.
A problem is probably that there is that there are just a ton more Nvidia cards out there, and CUDA is hard to keep up with, so nobody is doing to invest in an alternative more open language.

A possible solution (that doesn’t involve being better than Nvidia at the things they are good at, which seems to be impossible) is to create frameworks that spit out CUDA or, whatever, OpenCL. Nobody actually wants to use the languages, right? Everybody loves CuBLAS and CuDNN, not CUDA, make GPUOpenBLAS. Maybe they could get Intel to come along with them.
