There is a fourth way of writing SIMD code that is not among the three mentioned in the article: using language built-in features for SIMD.

For C and C++ this is GCC vector extensions (also available in Clang), for Rust (nightly) it's std::simd.

Compared to other methods, this gives portability to different CPU architectures, ability to use basic arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /), vector widths wider than the CPU supports and compiler optimizations that would be inhibited by inline assembly.

It may not cover every instruction available in the CPU, but there is a zero cost fallback to intrinsics when you need a particular CPU instruction (e.g. __mm_rcp_ps).

I've written a significant amount of SIMD code in C, C++ and Rust using builtins and it's quite a pleasant experience compared to other methods.
There is CSVY, which lets you set a delimiter, schema, column types, etc. and has libraries in many languages and is natively supported in R.

Also is backwards-compatible with most CSV parsers.

DALI (IMO: 9697428) is a Container Ship and is sailing under the flag of Singapore. Her length overall (LOA) is 299.92 meters and her width is 48.2 meters [1].

Based on the track, it appears the ship changed course slightly and slowed as it approached the bridge [2].

If I run a simulation workload it's pretty easy to generate gigabytes of data per second. CSV encoding adds a huge overhead space and time wise, so saving trajectories to disc for later analysis can easily become the bottleneck.

I have had many other situations where CSV was the bottleneck.

I still would default to CSV first in many situations because it's robust and easily inspected by hand.

There was something so special and powerful about Affinity Designer V1. It was just a supreme amount of value and such a robust application that it became the tool I learned to do graphic design on, and the tool I loved.

I feel like something slipped with Designer V2 - the features went a bit weird and broad, and the amount of bugs got irritating and eroded my love for it and it being my go-to recommendation.

That all said, it’s still good software today and I’m glad the Serif team gets some kind of payday. I think the drop in quality of V2 makes the whole thing a bit less bittersweet for me.

I am randomly choosing this property in San Francisco:

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1915-Washington-St-San-Fr...

The Rental Estimate is $16,970/mo.

The cost of home ownership:

The Property taxes are $4,573 /mo.
Insurance is $1,628/mo.
Interest portion of the loan is $20,522/mo.

In summary, the cost to own the home $26,723/mo (NOT INCLUDING PAYING INTO EQUITY, DEPRECIATION), which is $10,000 more per month than it would be to rent this same home.

As a renter, you take that extra $10k/mo you are not spending on property taxes, insurance, interest, transaction fees, and investing that into the SNP500.
That sounds like the premise for an utterly fascinating deep dive.

Try to replace the OS on Apple Watch with FLOSS. Or on any other watch.
> So what you are suggesting is that we do away with that (fine!) and replace it with --- something handwavy (not fine).

I wasn't really trying to suggest any concrete system to replace the current one. Neither would I be able to do so nor would it really matter since such a system couldn't be implemented in a top-down fashion. I was pondering how things are and why, which is hard enough, as well as what trends I see positively (which are simultaneously actionable recommendations for both funding agencies and scientists).

> many of your arguments about the lack of efficacy of the system or other flaws don't seem to me to capture how much worse it could be

Sure, I think science as a whole has never been more productive. Many trends also look positive: besides what I named above, there is also increased industry collaboration for applied research, increased funding overall, etc. The main challenge will be the price of creating fraudulent submissions going down and hacking the system becoming more prevalent. I think the only way to address this is to significantly reduce the "perceived authority" of any work that comes from using a LaTeX template, as well as authority that comes with the label "peer reviewed".

That's just the first stage of testing; you also need in vivo and human safety trials.

Typography is a huge part of communication, and by extension, brand identity. Companies value their brand. This is like saying: "why do companies create a whole unique logo for their brand?"

Bear in mind that most quality fonts aren't actually freely available, typography licensing is a complicated maze and for large for-profit companies often wildly expensive. Creating a custom typeface is expensive, sure, but it helps in establishing an identity and it also alleviates huge licensing fees.
Photoshop is the only software Adobe has bern giving atleast some attention.

If you are print designer than Publisher and Designer got to a point where they actually are better at many if not most fundamental things (speed, stability, ux of features, format support).

The main thing that has been keeping Affinity from adoption has been networking effects (adobe is in all companies and gets taught at schools).

Affinity is this close to turning this. Basically everyone has been waiting for them to allow third party plugins/scripting and the whole print industry would start to jump real fast.

Looks like the captain might have had little control and/or been distracted, what with the ship being on fire at the time.
In any case, I think the worst option is to let Facebook cancel your account and not doing the chargeback.

I'm not an expert on finances at all, but I'd pay using the old method, then chargeback. If they then cancel your account, they'd have to repay the new payment too, and I think someone there would start wondering why the hell they're cancelling you then.

Take a few risks. Start with risks that aren't real, like going to a restaurant that no one you know has ever heard of.

Once you have the experience that nothing bad happens, or if it does, it at most wasted a little money and time, work your way up to more rewarding risks.

Don't go as far as the Into the Wild guy though: he never realised how much "nothing bad" happening was due to other people bailing him out until he took risks someplace where that wasn't going to happen.

It's like writing a program: do it in small chunks and check each bit of functionality before committing.

If you are building an AM crystal radio. [1] You will also need a high-impedance speaker [2] if you want to operate it without a power supply, otherwise you will need an amplifier. You can avoid using a commercial diode by making your own point contact diode as done in Foxhole radios [3] and you can make your own piezoelectric speaker from Rochelle salt [4]. Here [5] is one personal projects site touching all those topics.

In conclusion, you should be able to build a simple radio from copper wire, aluminium foil, a pencil, a razor blade, and baking powder.

Ask HN: How do you debug prod data in dev?
Hey,

In both my companies I've had issues replicating issues for specific users/accounts.

Seems to me to options are

1. Copy all of prod to dev

2. Maintain custom scripts to pull a significant subset

3. Override env variables to actually connect to prod & try not to mess up

Then similarly with user-emulation the only option I can see is a hacky script.

I'm considering building tooling around this & just curious how this works in other companies.

> While the claims were being investigated, Pedraz agreed to block Telegram's services in Spain, as of Monday. According to the court source, it was to be the responsibility of mobile operators to block Telegram's services.

> The judge issued the order after officials in the Virgin Islands, where Telegram is registered, failed to respond to a court request from July 2023. The court wanted information that would allow it to identify who was behind the accounts in question that were uploading apparently pirated content.

> The lack of cooperation from the Virgin Islands led him to take this "precautionary measure," the judge said in Friday's order.
It's as ingenious as its reckless imo.
In general binary means it can only take two values, so you could encode the vector using -1 and +1. However, in a computer context, we use binary to talk bits (1 and 0).

The Wikipedia defines binary numbers as

>A binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system or binary numeral system, a method of mathematical expression which uses only two symbols: typically "0" (zero) and "1" (one).

So I don't think saying "typically" is an error.
If you can't do chargebacks anyway, then what's the point of even using a credit card for this?
> When they want to know how my holiday was, no they don't.

If you ever move to europe, you will find that even when people didn't really want to know, they understand that they did, in fact, ask the question. (If you don't have time, the polite thing is to greet* but not inquire)

Q. How do you confuse an American?

A. When they ask how you are, tell them.

* a folk etymology of "howdy!" is that it evolved from the vestigial use of "how do you do?" You could pretend, when your cow-orkers ask how you are, that they really meant to say "howdy, pardner!" (in a VR-mediated world, this could be automated via filter?)

fun fact: cowhands and SWEs both sometimes ask each other "how's the stock doing?"

I built dark mode for an email client’s (shortwave.com) HTML emails and this was the last major hurdle to solve. I wish that had existed then :)

Generally making emails dark mode is a non trivial problem, there is an hope source library that is a good start from Tempo: https://github.com/yourtempo/tempo-message-dark-mode

However there are plenty of edge cases that plugin doesn’t handle that we had to fix at Shortwave. Examples include legacy HTML4 attributes, better support for emails that are half dark mode, emails that have background images of #fff (looking at you google play reciepts), the list goes on. It’s honestly pretty solid now

I agree it was not especially fast progress. I should have said, in one year of casually using FF and a weekly (very good) Italki tutor, I was able to pass a B1 CILS exam and read a children's novel, which regardless of the number of words learned per day felt like a good achievement.

A back of the envelope estimate is that I spent 500 hours in high school Spanish to reach a similar level as I achieved as an adult in ~60 hours of rote vocabulary acquisition and ~60 hours of 1:1 conversation.

Reaching beginner-intermediate fluency in 20 minutes average per day—half of which is spent talking with a native speaker, not on boring flash cards—is easily attainable by someone who is motivated to learn but doesn't need to go at a breakneck pace, or feels that cramming 2,000 flash cards (let alone creating them) in a month sounds like hell. I was pleased it worked for me with as little time investment as I put in.

I am thinking about getting back into studying to see how chatbots have changed the experience, which could probably be used to synthesize more effective recall prompts. (I, Internet rando, argued to the FF team a few years ago that this would be disruptive tech, but they pursued their upmarket $25/session coaching service instead.)

(One thing I like in theory about FF, vs Anki generally, is that it splits the top n wordlist into sets that are "compatible" (fruit, apple, red) rather than "categorical" (red, green, blue). It feels like it helps to build the inter-word connections. However once these are tossed into the grinder of the spaced repetition algorithm, I'm not sure if it makes a difference.)
That's clear in the livestream video too. It's like it was fairly on track then changed to head straight for the pylon. A lot of smoke starts coming out of the funnel at the same time as the course change, and the ship's lights go out before impact.
> all nonlinear equation systems are nonconvex

Maybe you have something more particular in mind when you say "systems", but not all nonlinear functions are non-convex. Least squares, for example, is nonlinear and convex.

Also note that IPOPT, while wonderful, is a local solver. It may not be limited to convex problems, but those are the only ones it's guaranteed to solve to optimality.
Strange, that these shallow anti-crypto posts keep hitting the HN frontpage.

What are the main drivers of the crypto hate here on HN?

There is so much amazing technology being developed at the moment, which one would think is a main topic on a site for hackers.

As a random example, take arweave. Which is a really clever tweak to make a bitcoinlike blockchain store huge amounts of data. The top post about it here on HN has 8 comments, which do ot even touch on the tech.

While the current top post on the frontpage is "Radios, how do they work?".
When DDR5 was first introduced, there were only x8 chips.

Because the DDR5 channels must have a width of 32, 36 or 40 bits, with x8 chips one had to use 40-bit channels, even if only 36-bit channels are needed, so indeed 10% of the memory capacity remained unused.

Meanwhile, about a year ago, at least Micron has also introduced x4 chips. There are such ECC UDIMMs, using both x8 and x4 chips, which waste no memory.

On the market there are both modules made only with x8 chips, which do not use a part of the memory, and modules with a combination of x8 and x4 chips, without unused memory.
