You're starting way far down the path here.

The first questions should be more things like "Why are the current stakeholders willing to play along with the CCP system" or "How can a more 'western-norms' approach be packaged to appear less threatening and more compelling so it won't be instinctively rejected" and less "how do we invent MIND CONTROL NANOBOTS to make people change their political affiliation."

Any political system survives because some core percentage of the population benefits from it and buys into it. The cartoonish stereotype examples tended to be the small third-world countries where it was clear the local leader was financing the army to keep him afloat to the detriment of other services. The CCP has a far broader buy-in. I'm sure some of that might be people trying to use the Party for personal economic or social gain, but right now it's still easy for them to say "you're better off today than your parents were 30 years ago" and trade on that.

They also happen to be sitting around at a time where a lot of the original guardrails of good faith happen to be falling off of Western institutions. Situations like Brexit, runaway income inequality, the rise of fascist-adjacent leaders in Europe, and the non-function of the US legislature seem to scream "this nifty 'Capitalist Democracy' product we're selling? We can't even make it work on our machine!"

If you want to win over China, you have to show them that your value system will provide better outcomes. You can't exactly trot out Liz Truss and Kevin McCarthy and say "this is the sort of stable, respected government that will preserve the progress you've made over the last century." It's also inherently antagonistic to present a message that's "we'd love if if you voted out your current leaders"-- just look at the glare Schumer is catching over that type of language to a country that already has a multi-party norm.

I almost wonder if the way to sell democracy is less as a values-oriented Freedom(tm) message, and more pragmatic, like trying to apply the Toyota Process to government-- empower citizenry and look for ways that they can incorporate feedback at the ground level to root out performance and waste and enhance value for existing stakeholders. That could get to a government that's more responsive and respectful of its citizenry through an internal process it can own and see as "organic", rather than "foreigners insist we must have elections."
My air (noctua) cooled 7900X sustains 12 cores at 5200MHz reliably, but it's honestly hard to find that much saturation, most tasks can run better with 8 cores sustaining about 5400, or 4 cores sustaining about 5500.

With better cooling I'd be surprised if I couldn't sustain 5400 on all 12 cores.

This comment made me laugh because I thought of NVIDIA during the crypto boom and now the AI boom.

They played their cards so damn right when deep learning was taking off.
BTW emacs commands are the default in readline, thus in bash. They are ubiquitous in Mac text fields and buffers as well. Google docs too.

Those commands are so deeply wired in my brain (from contionuous use since the 70s) that I dodn't even notice when a program supports them -- it's when a program doesn't that I notice.
I think your comment is sarcastic, but Poe's Law in the age of $ > all makes it impossible to tell. If it's genuine I'd only emphasize that the point of money is to be able to do great things. GDP doesn't matter whatsoever, but the betterment of lifestyles and civilization that it's supposed to* correlate against does. And discovering a species, regardless of how simply or complex, on another planet would be one of the greatest discoveries and achievements in human history, with immense scientific and philosophical value.

---

* - kind of funny, but the reason GDP was invented was a local jurisdiction claiming it was being overtaxed. But needless to say the reason countries obsess over it today is not to try to reduce their tax burden.

Nature rarely* refactors. Sometimes random mutations refactors, which leads to efficiencies which leads to evolutionary advantages.

If nature doesn't refactor, then why are there so many crabs?
which you can by making the constructor private.
Notion’s data model is so good and the UI is great. I have read their privacy/data collection terms and it’s borderline acceptable. But it leaves a bad taste on my tongue whey I learned that they never wanted to implements e2ee with some bs explanation.
Delphi captures the pointer-to-instance and pointer-to-function concept too. It uses them for event handlers: delegating behaviour to other classes. To do that, method pointers are often a 'fat pointer': the pair of object instance and function.

type TMethodPtr = procedure(x : Integer) of object; // 'of object' means an OO method pointer, not procedural
var p : TMethodPtr = foo.bar; // Captures both foo and bar
p(4); // Calls foo.bar(4)

Fun: you can use them in C++ too in C++Builder's dialect via the rather ugly syntax,

void(__closure * myClosure)(int); // myClosure can point to a method taking an int, returning void
myClosure = pObj->func; // Assigng myClosure; this captures both pObj and the address of func
myClosure(4); // Call it: this calls pObj->func(4)

Syntax aside, they're neat because they match type safety by the method signature not by the type of the object on which they're called (which lets yu use them to delegate to any classes, not just ones inheriting from specific ancestors.) This bypasses contravariance constraints too.

It seems like model learning is too optimized for continuity, eg. continuous variables can be subdivided infinitely, where logic and algorithms are firm rather than fuzzy like this. Learning agents arguably need to be able to generalize from fuzzy to firm concepts to properly learn logic and algorithms. Whether that can happen automatically by scaling or whether that requires a fundamental shift is unclear.
Pointer to what, exactly? It doesn't make sense for it to be an object instance pointer, because you can use the same pointer to member on several different objects instances. If one instance's pointer was embedded in the pointer-to-member, it wouldn't work for other instances.

I have no idea what the format of a pointer-to-member is. It sure looks like a small closure.

This was so insightful, thanks.
I apologize for my spellchecker and lack of proofreading.
When dealing with bash history, I find that too many people are still unaware of C-r (Ctrl+R or Command+R): press it and start typing unique bits of your past commands. If multiple commands match, cycle through them with repeated C-r presses.

The usual reaction is :mindblown: :)
"Is it worthwhile?" is not a bad question to ask.

If someone proposed to use all of our resources to discover life outside of Earth, we would probably agree that's not the best use of our resources.

But this means there's an upper bound to the cost we're willing to bear. Which leads to the question, how much resources should we devote to finding life outside of Earth? The answer to that question is, yes, dependent on the expected economic outcome of finding extraterrestrial life.
Unfortunately the state of meta-review is similar to that of reviews. Rarely delves deeper, mostly acts as a summarizer for the independent reviews.

My memory is that things like new time-slice in the kernel, significant FS changes have done this in linux, BSD in times past.

Sometimes, you only find the problems in real-life deployment.

FS Quotas had a bumpy start. NFSv4 had a bumpy start (both in BSD, decades ago)
I had opened a new tab back when this comment was just a few minutes old in hopes that when I came back there was some really great blog post linked with the details on the sorcery.
Totality is totality, whether you are in the direct center of the path or closer to the edge.

The difference is how long you will experience totality.
The general case here would be that to be POSIX compliant doesn't demand the underlying OS is unix, only that the API/ABI and commands work in very narrow limits.

If you write to libc and a small set of dependencies and if you are in C, it should be possible to do things. If you want curses, you are walking into hairy areas.
foundingsales.com is a good resource that contains a lot of the wisdom and advice found in other sales books.

Generally the literature you're looking for depends on what account sizes you have, as others have mentioned. Advice for selling single $10/month accounts is much different from advice for selling 6-figure enterprise deals.
There are deltas there of over 70cm.

That's insane when it usually moves 2cm per year at most.

Oh man I absolutely love the work that you guys do. I'm actually in the process of learning Ebook production using the 'Step by Step' guide on your website. I'm essentially learning it all from scratch as I have little to no programming/SWE experience (I learned a bit of Lua because of KOReader[1]) but the technical side of ebook production has always fascinated me enough to keep learning. Also because I wanted to contribute more than just typos and grammatical errors (as important as they are).

Power output of a fusion reactor scales with something like the fourth power of the radius, IIRC. I don't think they're going to be able to build a reactor the size of their sun, so capturing that energy still seems pretty useful for large-scale efforts, like moving ships between star systems at near light speed.
This comment distracted me as I tried to recall a product I saw my mother using when I was younger. I fell asleep after I found it and never got back here until just now: Microsoft Works

This one was so obscure to find because it seems to exist in a weird space of being Microsoft Office but not.
Exactly. I still find noses and ears to be such noticeable protrusions once I let go of my knowledge of human faces.
Agree. With more compute-intensive experiments in ML, I am not sure if any reviewer re-runs experiments. The reviewing is already voluntary - who's going to pay out of their pocket for the compute? It's not feasible.
One of the struggles with researching octopus intelligence is that they’re basically untrainable. They’ll do what you want them to if they’re interested but it’s quite difficult to get them to be consistently interested.

In other words, it was probably fun for the octopus too.
Good thing we had the French and others when we really needed them, else we wouldn't be around later "saving the free world"...

Now to be fair, France's motivation may have been more to damage their rival than to help us, but either way we got some much needed assistance.
OTOH with these changes, the new UX of being able to recover unsaved documents made it so that Windows sees no problem with restarting or shutting down on me without my approval even if I have a notepad open.

This breaks my historic workflow of keeping an unsaved notepad open so that if it was detected it wouldn't force close other processes with unsaved work and I could save them or rely on my PC to stay awake and running some long-running process overnight.

The first time I woke up to a restarted PC with my place lost bc of this, I realized that Windows' days were numbered on my hardware.
The same professional taster will at times assign different ratings and features to five glasses poured from the same bottle, and they consistently give typical red wine characteristics to white wine with added odourless tasteless dye.

It's 90% bullshit science and 10% basic measurable characteristics.

Interesting how in the beer industry it's much less bullshity, with multiple characteristics objectively measured both at raw materials stage (hops alpha/beta acid content, essential oil etc, yeast alcohol limit , malt diastatic power) and different stages of beer production (wort specific gravity, fermentation progress etc).
It was insane. There was a massive die off of marine life. One movement they were happily swimming in the sea or crawling on the sand, next minute they were above the sea.

How would it disperse? There's little matter to disperse it over interstellar distances. Very little energy would be lost if it were properly focused.

It's almost never used. The delegate version is almost universally used.

> Even if the lambda were to inline the call, it still would be a completely different location in the executable image.

Not sure what you mean. Inlined code is not in a different location, it's right where one is executing! Also, optimizers are pretty darned good these days.
It's just marketing guys, think of it as political pandering, more population, more patriotic population(emotional attachment), etc. I'm sure we all agree that America is more linguistically and geographically "challenged"(market potential) than the Brits yeah?.... sooo market where the market is. As for Brazil, that's a sheer population decision. They tried to shove Spain's version of spanish audio translation into the latin american portion of the new world (the thinking I guess was since america loves the british accent in movies... but it flopped.... now Hollywood/movie industry recruits voices from Mexico and other latam countries.

I never really went down the keyboard layer rabbit hole until recently when I was looking for a really good, small, portable mechanical keyboard and came across the Planck 40% kit over at Drop. I loved this idea of having a split spacebar with two dedicated keys for different layers.
I mean, it's kinda necessary for such a small board... But still, cool concept to my naive little mind.
Traditional space bars really do take up way too much... space...

You are correct, what I wrote is unclear. See my other posts in this thread.

Bummer. I was about to give it a try
Those aren't really like building codes. Building codes are effectively minimum specifications for safety, with the requirement that they can be inspected and approved. The codes eventually became more uniform, but their original intent was to prevent shoddy workmanship from creating hazardous conditions.

SOC II and ISO 27001 have to do with security, which is close to safety, but not the same. GDPR and HIPAA are concerned with privacy, which is more related to security than safety. The rest are about compatibility.

If somebody breaks into a building, that's a security issue. If the building falls down, that's a safety issue. Software can be secure, private, and compatible, and still crash all the time. Safety isn't the same as reliability, but safety tends to lead to reliability, because if it wasn't reliable, it wouldn't be all that safe.

So I think we could use standards that focus more on safety [and reliability]. It won't make the products make more money - in fact, it'll cost more to make them. But the result will be better for people and society overall, the way building codes have been.
Correct. It's explained here:

XWayland has special hooks into the compositors that normal wayland clients don't get.
The first line is a complete statement that finishes at the end of the line - unless there's an else clause in the following line (not counting comments or empty lines). Expressed another way:

if (true) {
something()
}

// Comment

otherStatement()

If this last line started with "else", then the comment would be within the if statement.

So... Ansible isn't the thing hosting the thing. It talks to APIs; K8s is one of many it can handle!

This reads like a brazen misunderstanding/misrepresentation of Ansible.

Like... imagine the position of Terraform, a Kubernetes darling, and that's it.

I could especially see Ansible being used when not buying toy clusters, but building your own. I don't know how useful CRUD on the objects like deployments would be. Enough to do the job.

Point being, Kubernetes doesn't exclude Ansible in the slightest, whatsoever.

This was just enough for me to post... they aren't mutually exclusive. It's yet another layer of yaml to throw at the declaration problem.

Where/what/how is entirely up to the user. I'll take your money and then move on to the next thing to manage
It depends on how you do arithmetic. If you're a human and you do column addition, 12345+35791=58136 is just as big of a mistake as 48146 (the actual result is 48136). It's just one mistaken column in both. Binary half-adders work the same way.

We don't really know how LLMs do arithmetic. Maybe token edit distance would be interesting, but either way it doesn't really change the claim of the paper.

Unrelated: The link is incorrect, the one you're referring to is here: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2304.15004.pdf
A couple of years ago I've purchased an expensive KVM swithch from them. Waste of money, it was glitchy as hell.

They make good racks, but their hardware was always crappy.
It's worth noting that the debunking has been debunked (it's much more nuanced but essentially you can take the quotes, experience of others and the height of the bridges at face value):

"I recorded clearances for a total of 20 bridges, viaducts and overpasses: 7 on the Bronx River Parkway (completed in 1925); 6 on the initial portion of the Saw Mill River Parkway (1926) and 7 on the Hutchinson River Parkway (begun in 1924 and opened in 1927). I then took measure of the 20 original bridges and overpasses on the Southern State Parkway, from its start at the city line in Queens to the Wantagh Parkway, the first section to open (on November 7, 1927) and the portion used to reach Jones Beach. The verdict? It appears that Sid Shapiro was right."

"Overall, clearances are substantially lower on the Moses parkway, averaging just 107.6 inches (eastbound), against 121.6 inches on the Hutchinson and 123.2 inches on the Saw Mill."

If buses have always about 118" that would be effective.

Nothing wrong with those, but again, they are only for the partial phases of an eclipse. You do not need them and should not use them during totality.

A partial eclipse is nothing special. There isn't much point in looking at it. Just as you have seen a crescent moon many times, now you will see a crescent sun.

It won't even have any of the cool craters and textures of the crescent moon. Boring!

Totality is where it's at. And if you forget about trying to look directly at the partial phases, you don't need eclipse glasses.
> if you move slower, you evolve slower

In the plank limit maybe. Large-scale "organic" farms speed up evolution 100,000x with the right drug cocktail to circumvent the current legal definitions of "GMO." They aren't pumping 100,000x more energy into the system. Our base rate of evolution is naturally selected for complicated reasons which _involve_ the available entropy supply but aren't simply monotonically dependent on it.

I am an ash user. ("Power user" is a term invented for users of TUI/GUI software.) I use ash as an interactive shell as well as a scripting shell. I prefer vi mode and libedit rather than readline. In ash, set -o vi is not necessary. set -V will do.
I did the same! I convinced my wife that we should put our 2 week old daughter in the car for her first roadtrip, and we made our way very slowly to the Carolinas. We were going to catch it in the mountains, near Boone, NC, but it was cloudy over there, so we frantically made our way into South Carolina. We managed to find clear enough skies just minutes before totality.

It's right there in the Wikipedia article on the No Hair Theorem:

"Suppose two black holes have the same masses, electrical charges, and angular momenta, but the first black hole was made by collapsing ordinary matter whereas the second was made out of antimatter; nevertheless, then the conjecture states they will be completely indistinguishable to an observer outside the event horizon. None of the special particle physics pseudo-charges (i.e., the global charges baryonic number, leptonic number, etc., all of which would be different for the originating masses of matter that created the black holes) are conserved in the black hole, or if they are conserved somehow then their values would be unobservable from the outside"

Now, this is all still hypothetical, as we haven't a black hole on hand, but this has been the mainstream view on black holes for decades.
I didn't make this clear in the original post I'm not just surveying HN queries to come to the conclusion that it's common. I'm currently in a management role at a highly mission-driven org, and helping people avoid burnout is a constant discussion because nearly everyone on the team has either been through it or at risk of it.

(The high burnout rates aren't because of external pressure, it's because the team is mostly here because they deeply care about the mission.)
I assume they're not counting it, but instead are counting the US as allied with itself.
