I said this in a child comment - but to put it a different way - Imagine google didn't exist, how would you go about discovering content? When I first got on the internet there used to be directories, which was literally just a list of links sorted by topic. Although there was no "algorithm" I imagine (based on my own usage) that items listed closer to the top were more often clicked and thus grew faster than items lower on the list.

In fact, even before the internet, this phenomenon existed in the Yellow Pages which is why you have things like "aaa local plumbers" so they'd appear before their competitors.

I think people are worried no one really understands how AI picks the target.

Reminds me of that story from probably 5-7y ago. Someone wanted to use AI to classify photos of tanks as soviet vs US. So he went to a US tank museum and took lots of pictures of the tanks under every angle. Did the same in a soviet tank museum. The resulting model worked great on that training dataset. Then he tried on photos outside of the training dataset. Turned out that it was cloudy the day he visited the US museum and sunny for the soviet museum, and the model used the color of the sky to classify.
Ask HN: Does anyone actually use data structures/algorithms at work?
Sitting at around 4 years of experience now and last month was my first time actually implementing a graph traversal in prod, and then last week a skip list. It was fun, and I loved being able to instantly link the problems I was facing to algo/structures I knew would work, but it seems it happens so infrequently to not justify the emphasis we place on these in interviews.

I imagine any regular SWE at <insert-product-focused-company> just ends up using libraries that themselves implement all the data structure/algo pieces, leaving you with just abstractions.

Anyone here regularly using/thinking about these? And I don’t just mean small things like when to use an array vs a map but the more complex stuff

Completely hypothetical scenario: what if the technical reaction was so hostile they invested in it themselves to fix the issues and make it sustainable?

In light of the recent security incident, I'd see that completely hypothetical situation as more admirable.
It is a good example for an initial bug report but, once the code has been fixed to handle that failure case, minimal examples are the correct lasting tests to live with the code forever.

Additionally, a complex example may require multiple conditions to fail and if those aren't split into multiple tests then subtle bugs can be reintroduced later because that complex test doesn't cover all potential failure conditions. If there need to be test cases for multiple related bugs then they need to be minimal to demonstrate the failure condition combinations they are testing for.

Neither Isrealis nor Hamas believe it's their duty to prevent civilian Palestinian deaths in this conflict. At this point anyone that can do anything to improve the situation are the civilians themselves by social distancing from Hamas associates by at least the typical blast radius. Athough I don't imagine this would be very effective as well.

Haven't used it in years, but Meteor.js worked like this. Even to the point where it had a client-side database implementation that mirrored (parts of) the server-side database.

It would apply the updates optimistically to the client side DB, and the much of code that sat between the database could be shared between client and server. Neat stuff, even if overall Meteor wasn't my favourite thing to work with.

I was pointing out the hypocrisy of telling the world they should look away from what's being done in Palestine because war is dirty, but should sympathise with Israel after Hamas's awful attack, because war is dirty.

You don't care about Palestinians but you expect the world to care about Israel, despite committing obvious warcrimes.

I very much want peace for both sides, a stable society and good life for everyone, Arab and Israeli. You clearly don't share that wish. You have no morals, no moral authority, and what you are doing is putting Israel's future at greater risk than Hamas could, but you're so shortsighted and self-centred you're blinded to that.
Beyond the points made in the linked article I'd say this: there are places in the world where the 2008 financial crisis didn't have nearly as strong as an effect. Notably Canada, a culture very similar to the US https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/canada-escaped-worst-of-rec...

I would say that the real alternative to growth is dividends. Plenty of grocery store chains are happy to putter along paying a solid quarterly dividend with meager yearly growth.

Cool! Yeah I think that would pair nicely. You can have the abstraction at the action level, or push it down into the stack (as it seems you're doing). Have also seen some startups building proxy layers for OpenAI/GPT.

It's just a library so it depends on what could be the bottlenecks. Standard ones are:
1. Compute -- just scale horizontally
2. DB -- scale horizontally (and vertically), use intelligent partitioning

(1) is generally easy with autoscaling, (2) is where your queries/data modeling matter, and this is why we made persistence entirely pluggable, figuring we wouldn't know the best usage patterns yet. More reading: https://burr.dagworks.io/concepts/state-persistence/.

One more thing to think about -- Burr isn't opinionated about how you build your app -- E.G. up to you to think about what happens if you have your webapp open in, say, two tabs. You'll need to manage situations like this, but Burr's plugin capabilities should make that easier to iterate on. We're looking to add more examples on this -- also reach out if you have any specific questions/find anything missing/have suggestions.

> scan barcode, place item on the weight plate. Repeat. Press pay button, pay with card, whatever, tap/insert.

scan barcode, place item on plate mostly works except when barcode is crumpled or something.

without barcodes it's a more of a crapshoot. Usually more than 1/2 of my basket doesn't have a barcode (fresh produce, etc.)

Maybe the ones near me are just too sensitive to weight variations.

Oh and one of them really loves to scan a points card 2x, then try an apply the second read as a product and fail.

Every time the machine gets confused, you have to wait for an attendant. All things being equal, the cashiers are faster than self scan. If the lineup for cashiers is longer, it can still be faster, but otherwise it's slower in my experience.

> It's been clear from the start that they've been targeting journalists, medical staff and anyone involved in aid distribution

I really doubt that's the case, seems more like a "fire first if any suspicion at all and ask questions later" policy. If there was an intentional policy to kills journalists, aid workers and medical staff you'd see a lot more dead.

And you have to be extremely naive or one sided to not realize that Hamas does use those type of roles as cover for their operations.

Not trying to justify Israel's actions because they are fucked up, but based on all the evidence we have you are clearly wrong.
> No, because if nbytes > sizeof(*hwrpb), your version causes the kernel to only write part of the buffer, and then when the app accesses fields at the end of the struct, it would read uninitialized data, which is very bad.

> I would agree with you if the kernel had some other mechanism to pass the size of the buffer that was actually filled to the client (like e.g. the read() syscall does) but the getsysinfo() API doesn't return that data, so the kernel must either fill the buffer entirely or return failure.

As you mention, this struct is versioned. Userspace can tell how much of the struct was filled by checking the size field (hwrpb->size).

> But allowing nbytes < sizeof(*hwrpb) has the benefit that the kernel developers can add fields at the end of the struct without breaking backward compatibility with older applications.

That's a related but separate issue. Backward compatibility can be handled by switching on nbytes or by copying fewer bytes with a carefully designed struct. It's not clear that backward compatibility was the original intention of this code, the original intention more seems to be sanitizing tainted input. This struct has not changed in at least 16 years.

It's easier to exploit somebody's computer using a USB drive, because it can do things like pretend to be a keyboard and spoof your inputs, and because the attack surface is "every USB driver", but we have to assume a skilled attacker can do just as much damage with a DVD+R. AFAIK, no kernel filesystem driver is designed to be robust against maliciously crafted filesystems, and FUSE is not designed to be a security boundary. If you're taking security seriously you have to take the same precautions with each, e.g. disabling automount, and only mounting them in a disposable VM and accessing the files over the network.

And even this might not be enough. Is your OS's partition table code robust against malicious input? I don't think there's any way to disable reading the partition table in Linux when a new block device is detected. In this case even copying a single file to/from the raw device with dd might not be secure.

Could you please clarify what you mean by "Hamas wanted in ghe first place"? If I'm not mistaken, you're referring to the attack on the 7th of October, right? May I perhaps add that just on the days preceding that attack, Israelis killed a Palestinian in the West Bank[0]. So it was not really peaceful before that specific date.

>And yet, somehow I still feel like the answer to this problem still isn't "authorizing up to 15-20 civilian deaths for every enemy militant killed" as mentioned in the article.

See, that's how you feel, because you aren't thinking or looking at data. And perhaps because you interpret "up to" as the actual ratio.

According to the UN, civilians make up about 90% of casualties during a war[1].

Meanwhile, the estimates for Israel operation in Gaza is ~9000 militants killed out of ~25000 total[2].

The entire problem in discussing the issue is that the way people feel isn't driven by reality on the ground, but on what sounds nice.

From the outside it sure looks like AIPAC has a lot of influence and US politicians by and large are absurdly committed to supporting Israel no matter how flagrantly it violates international law and human rights. You can try to dismiss this observation by joking about a secret cabal of evil Jews (maybe they can be lizards as well!) but that doesn't change the reality that the USA seems to be grovelling at the feet of Bibi as if Israel is giving it free billions each year instead of the other way round.
Yeah, the integration and production readiness of their non-core offerings is not perfect. I'm dealing with R2 and another service and you can tell they fell more like... specifically integrated features, rather than fully modular services you can choose to use as you want. Like the workers have possible R2 bindings, but you can't use those in a fetch() call - you have to use S3 compatible endpoint instead.

AWS has its own issues, but the push to have everything talking over API did wonders for the ability to use them as you want.
