Taking away bodily autonomy is very close to killing a person, yes. People value their body autonomy so much, it's such a deeply-rooted instinct that messing with it can lead to death (either straight up death or personality/ego death).

How often one hears, usually after sexual assault: "they were such a bright, chatty person before, now they're withdrawn, have panic attacks, PTSD, they hurt themselves etc." That's personality death and it comes from denying bodily autonomy.
You mean what? That if we sin (like you know all that giant list of outdated ways to sin like touching a woman when she is menstruating) there will be a giant rain and we will drawn? So did you made your giant boat or first you need to wait for God to tell you to do it in a dream?

Sorry , but some people will not follow those outdated rules and also worship a extremely cruel genocidal inhuman God, if my sin will cause you to have to build a boat to save yourself sorry but I don't care.

The G4 desktops are all pretty cool machines. One of these days I’d like to get ahold of a Quicksilver/MDD motherboard and see if I can figure out a way to fit it into a modern ATX case. The original tower cases were neat but not great in the airflow or noise departments, and with a growing number of G4 original PSUs failing it’s useful to be able to house a standard ATX PSU without case hacks.

I feel a census coming on.

There needs to be a reckoning of who is doing what where on this sort of thing. After this whole fiasco you'll probably see more contracts wanting to know who's working on these things, and that will, in turn, have people auditing their software's packages.
The second document has a link to a benchmark [1] by peazip which shows that 7zip is by far the best when you have a bit of time to compress (241s) but its the fastest at decompression and has the best ratio. Interesting. How is the support in languages? Are browsers planning to implement it as well?

Even if it hadn't been loaded by libsystemd, liblzma is also loaded by SELinux, which would have allowed the same vulnerability via a different vector.

Personally I think projects like fedora silverblue/kinoite and other container-based OSes are going in the right direction. We need a base OS that's as small as possible so it can be audited, and everything else then needs to live in a container so it doesn't have to be audited but is still secured properly.

I would be curious to see if these bee hives in Texas are mostly actually extant or whether people are just claiming bee hives for the tax benefit.
I thought this article was going to be about the ambiguous name, "Daylight Saving Time"--it's not at all obvious from the name which setting is "Daylight Saving Time" and which is "Standard Time", to the point that it's a common crossword puzzle answer to choose either "EDT" or "EST."
This is really not the responsibility of unpaid developers.
Yikes. For context, the 7900XTX and 7900XT are the only consumer GPUs that AMD officially support running AI workloads on, and the XTX is the one they recommend out of the two. Other cards in the same generation and any from previous generations are officially not supported or tested and may not work. So it's not like they have a particularly large amount of hardware that needs to be included in their testing environment.
Hiring: CTO (to take reins from solo, technical founder)

PHOSPHOR (http://phosphor.co/20x) has been reverse-engineering ISDA, which financial historians refer to as “the greatest success story in modern economic history” due to ISDA's ability to drive standardization into financial contracts which enabled their markets to grow 1200x.

We're doing this in the internet age by modeling Github as the center of the open source world. But to build something like Github, we had to build languages, version control, IDEs, and infrastructure for contracts and financial models (the backbones of every asset class in finance) to make them computable and connectable.

I've been building Phosphor for over three years as both CEO and CTO. As we've really honed in on what we're doing as a business, how/where we innovate, etc, I need someone experienced to take the reins and help me grow this company into the ridiculous opportunity it represents.

You might be a fit if:
- You're demonstrably obsessed with HCI and end-user computing
- You’ve lost sleep thinking about knowledge abstraction problems
- You’ve built CRDTs and collaborative applications for fun
- You're design-oriented, but as speed is a UX problem, you’ve learned systems languages
- You’re excited by the emergence that occurs when AI is applied against observable systems
- You're excited to
- You’re a polyglot, and maybe frustrated that functional languages aren’t the norm
- You have an expansive model of the world, and the idea of consolidating these skills to create extraordinary real-world impact excites you
- You're deeply technical, but have also built capable teams

What you’ll do:
- Build one of the most unique products in finance
- Inherit a three year old, thoughtfully architected, event-driven application with only minor tech debt
- Build a 5-10 person engineering team
- Kick off/manage all of the bits and pieces that go into such a ridiculous endeavor

This is a very hard technical problem at every level (low level up through design) which we've made extraordinary progress towards.

We have traction and investment from leaders in clean energy finance (where I built one of the leading solar platforms as first hire), real estate, and more.

To apply, email oliver@phosphor.co with "CTO position" in the title. Include a PDF of your resume, links to LinkedIn/GH, and lay some bullets that point to awesome you've done or built before that match the bits and pieces of the "You might be a fit if" section.

Cheers.

Hey, I'm David from Germany. I enjoy software development and working with people. Currently, I live around Heidelberg, Germany, but I would like to move to Korea for personal reasons.

I have a PhD in computer science and currently work as a developer for a startup. My current focus lies on a typescript backend and internal tooling. I love solving complex technical problems, but also enjoy improving cooperation between teams and team members.
As a database novice, what is the difference? I assume one of the two is wastefully fetching all products and then filtering, while the other is omitting the filtered results as part of the fetch, and is therefore more efficient? If so, which is which?
Would you like to know more? http://www.robertames.com/blog.cgi/entries/physics-of-vim.ht...
A few things here.

First, yes, there's several tools which provide (incomplete) feature selection functionality, you can see some sibling comments for examples.

Second, especially in complex projects, the presence of a feature doesn't necessarily mean it's sufficiently complete to be workable. You can run into issues like, say, "I need io_uring, but I need an io_uring op added in version X.Y and so it's not sufficient to say 'do I support io_uring.'" Or you can run into issues like "this feature exists, but it doesn't work in all cases, particularly the ones I want to use it for."

Third, there's no real alternative to feature detection. In practice, build systems need to cope with systems that pretend to be other systems via incompletely-implemented compatibility layers. Version detection ends up creating the User-Agent problem, where every web browser pretends to be somebody pretending to be somebody pretending to be Netscape 5.x and if you try to fix this, the web breaks. (Not to mention the difficulty of sniffing versions correctly; famously, MS skipped Windows 9 reportedly because too many build systems interpreted that to mean Windows 95 or Windows 98 with catastrophic results).

The end result of all of this is that the most robust and reliable way to do feature detection is to try to use the feature and see if it works.
Undoubtedly useful, but I'd be shocked if this wasn't violating Google's ToS and I can't imagine building something important using this.
Your claim above:

> We are already preventing 99% of preventable deaths.

Makes an implicit claim of optimality on an absolute basis. What you posted here doesn't even try to prove that claim, at best it only proves a relative improvement.
Did you even read the article, or just looked at the LaTeX formulas?

I'll give you a hint: Cmd+F "window". See any results? Because the DFT doesn't have a window function. The STFT does have a window function.

Second hint: look at the image in the article (https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_...). Do you think this shows the time domain and frequency domain representations (i.e. the DFT) of a signal? No, it does not. It shows the time domain representation, and the STFT of the signal, aka the spectrogram.

Do you have any questions?
Hydrogen really likes to strip out all the carbon in your steel, leaving you with pure iron (given enough time). It's a well known phenomenon called hydrogen embrittlement.
Yeah, this is why I generally just don't like ORMs. They often just leaky abstractions where you end up not only needing to know how the ORM works, but also SQL when you need to go back and fix the ORM.

There are exceptions, like jooq, which try not to really be an ORM and instead are just a language extension to help write sql (funnily, being an even more leaky abstraction is preferable here :D)

It's pretty common knowledge in the beekeeping world that losses are about 50% annually. Most beekeepers request every year or two as well.

The past couple years I've had high losses. Mostly due to yellow jacket pressure. But I'm also treatment-free and expect some losses from colonies that are less varroa hygienic and too late in the year to requeen.
It’s winner take all because if the scaling hypothesis applies to self driving, they have way more telemetry to do self supervised training on, which initiates a feedback loop: more people buy their cars which gives them even more training data, making their self driving system even further ahead of the competition.

Yes, the idea of algebraizing logic was to my knowledge first done by Frege in his 1884 book "Begriffsschrift" (Hard to translate, maybe "Statement Notation" gets close?), which is fascinating to read. He had developed a (from our perspective) very weird notation, but it actually expresses what we would nowadays call "formal logic". Importantly it includes decuctions, which is an important addition to the and/or/not operations.

Before Frege philosophy/mathematics also had these notions, but instead of being algebraic they were linguistic notions. Those you can find even in ancient Greek Texts.

If the author really does argue that Shannon invented formal logic, then he is definitely wrong, although I have not read his argument on that.
I work daily on a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8GB. I run Raspberry OS with a local Apache2 server. I use gedit (Gnome text editor, only syntax highlighting, line numbers and a little file browser) to program PHP, MySQL and a little Javascript. GIMP I use for editing photos and creating images (also for print). Kdenlive works for editing small to medium size videos. Firefox, Thunderbird, Filezilla, Rhythmbox and SuperTuxKart are also necessary for my workday.

I cannot think of a simpler setup. I'm not even a minimalist, I just can't stand Windows and Apple. Annoying software, blegh. Or paying thousands of bucks for a more powerful computer that I don't need. The RPi4 just works. Quick enough. And then it gets out of the way.
This is why it's important to have a robust base tax rate. Plenty of headroom for incentives when they're needed
> found it lackluster for the domain I asked it for

Fair, that is possible depending on your domain.

> It's no good at writing algorithms or data structures

In my experience, this is untrue. I’ve gotten it to write algorithms with various constraints I had. You can even tell it to use specific function signatures instead of any stdlib, and make changes to tweak behavior.

> And most use I've seen on it realistically a good LSP covers.

Again, I really don’t understand this comparison. LSPs and LLMs go hand in hand.

I think it’s more of a workflow clash. One really needs to change how they operate to effectively use LLMs for programming. If you’re just typing nonstop, maybe it would feel like Copilot is just an LSP. But, if you try harder, LLMs are game changers when:

- maybe you like rubber ducking

- need to learn a new concept and implement it

- or need to glue things together

- or for new projects or features

- or filling in boilerplate based on existing context.
The loading time improvements largely held up, and on the balance the mmap contribution was ultimately good (though the way it was implemented was really quite problematic, as a matter of process and communication). However, as I point out in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39894542, JT quite unambiguously did try to cash in on the "low memory usage" claim - uncritically reprinting positive claims by others about your own work that otherwise would have been largely invisible should really not be treated differently as making those claims yourself.

I do think that there is a real risk that the numbers are wrong (not necessarily "fabricated", as this implies malfeasance, but possibly based on an erroneous measurement insufficiently questioned due to an excess of trust from themselves and others, as the mmap ones were). This is also in part based on the circumstance that at the time (of the mmap story, and myself being more involved in the project) I was actually involved in trying to optimise the SIMD linear algebra code, and unless llama.cpp has since switched to a significantly less performant implementation the proposition that so much more performance could be squeezed out strikes me as quite surprising. Here, your intuitions may say that Justine Tunney is just so brilliant that they make the seemingly impossible possible; but it was exactly this attitude that at the time made it so hard to evaluate the mmap memory usage claims rationally and turned the discussion around it much more dysfunctional than it had to be.

Hi Pete,

For those of your clients who requested website overhauls, they'll probably prefer to keep their new websites on the same location, as their own hosting, usually it's a cPanel hosting account, like HostGator or GoDaddy, so WordPress is a first choice, if you (and they?) enjoy using it.

But as you mentioned they're local businesses, with limited budget and needs for basic web presence, they would probably love to manage their websites on their own and WordPress may look scary for most of the less technical users. You can try Kopage (https://kopage.com), similar to WordPress, it can be self-hosted, but it works in the cloud in the first place. And it's free.

A little disclaimer: Kopage is one of my projects, and this was the exact reason it was created in the first place, as a tool as user-friendly and intuitive as possible for our own clients, so they can manage their own websites and don't be afraid to break something.

There's a white-label plan if you'd like to offer it under your own brand.
The whole idea of an SBC is to use it when you can’t use any other form of computation, like for example an IoT on a tree that will collect some logs in the middle of nowhere, or a robot, or maybe as replacement for a poor-specs embedded device, trying to use it for anything else like a server or a desktop replacement is just naive thinking, unless it’s only for fun and pushing-the-limits purposes.

I recently switched from a Pi4 to a Wyse 5070 ($35 second hand off eBay if you're patient). Apart from HomeAssistant, it's running all of my local services. It's significantly faster. It's also running from an SSD instead of SD, this is a big deal because SDs are known to die pretty quickly.

The undisclosed hero feature is QuickSync. Jellyfin was practically unusable on the Pi4.

The only thing I'm missing is somewhere to slot in an Arc GPU. I'm pretty certain that some light local LLM inference would be possible.

Im curious as to why they picked the commit cadence they did. Why do this over the course of two years and not, say 8 months or 15 months? After committing the first patch, why did they wait x days/weeks/months to commit the second? Were they timing the commits off of release schedules, following some predetermined schedule, or something else?
A failure mode that is common in many shared identity providers is that the services using the IdP often are able to ask for and receive information that should generally not be seen as mandatory shared information. A simple example of this is email address. Giving the same email address to many companies generally means that eventually that address will end up on spam lists. This is a one way non-recoverable situation (once you're on the list, that email is burned), with a probability of it happening scaling approximately linearly with the count of services that use the same address. The impact scales in the same proportion (if you choose to disable the address, then you have to change with all the services).

This is not theoretical. Services that use GitHub auth do this regularly.
Every ORM I've ever used (or contributed to building) has included a query builder as a core component.

What ORMs have you seen that don't do that?
I’m glad to see this because I have been debating getting a used computer or a cheap desktop to run as a torrent box but haven’t had any good recommendations come my way. Ideally, I want to run a Linux distro on it and have it sync everything over to my Mac which has plex on it.

I’m curious if others have done something similar?
