Easy, we would enjoy the software practices that were common with compiled languages until the mid-2010's, when people started using scripting languages for application development instead of OS scripting activities, with Zope, Django, Rails and friends, ending up in mostrosities like Electron, despite Active Desktop and XUL failure.

Logpipe: View and search your messy development logs with syntax highlighting
Hey, HN!

Whenever I'm onboarded onto new codebases, I have a tough time finding my own debug logs when there are hundreds of logs from different systems all cluttering the terminal. It's hard to know where one log ends and another begins. It's just white text on a black background.

I started this a couple days ago, but it's already been useful for my work. After building it, I found out projects like this had already existed. There's a section on bottom of the readme comparing them.
The specific challenge here is:

"You are tasked with creating a client/server application in Golang that runs in Google Cloud. The client in this application must communicate with the server over UDP.

Each client sends 100 requests per-second. Each request is 100 bytes long. The server processes each request it receives and forwards it over HTTP to the backend.

The backend processes the request, and returns a response containing the FNV1a 64 bit hash of the request data. The server returns the response it receives from the backend down to the client over UDP.

Implement the client, server and backend in Golang and Terraform such that it scales to more than 1M clients. Provide estimates of the cost to run the solution each month at a steady load of 1M clients, as well as some options you would recommend as next steps to reduce the cost.

IMPORTANT: When you load test this system, make sure you are communicating between the client, server and backend using internal addresses to avoid egress bandwidth charges."
> In addition, there is no pedestrian walkway between san francisco and either marin (north bay) or oakland (east bay) depite both being major commuter hubs.

The Golden Gate Bridge (San Francisco to Marin) does, in fact, have sidewalks.

https://www.goldengate.org/bridge/visiting-the-bridge/bikes-...

It’s true there is no pedestrian/bike connection from San Francisco to Oakland, and that seems unlikely to change (the main improvement planned there involves electric ferry service from SF to Treasure Island connecting to the East Span of the Bay Bridge.

> You need a car or to find a bus that will take you to a rail line.

Or you can take a train that takes you to the other rail line (in the East Bay, but then there’s not much rail to connect to in Marin anyway); BART is a thing.
My local co-op had them as impulse items at the checkstand. I seem to remember them costing as much as a candy bar, and my parents giving in and getting me a few. IIRC, they were slightly stronger than ceramic magnets, and much less brittle.
Sawstop prevents one specific mode of improper use, and it's not even the most common danger present with table saws: kickback.

No matter how good or experienced you are with a table saw, you will have it launch material like a projectile backwards at some point (kickback.) Don't be standing behind it when it happens - instead, be on the other side of the fence.

If you're on the safe side of the fence, you likely don't have enough arm length to comfortably cut your fingers off anyway. (And why weren't you using a push stick?)

Good point! I think a useful addendum would be to only allow videos below a certain length - for instance, a 30 second/1 minute demonstration.
> A bit surprised that they're using HBM2e, which is what Nvidia A100 (80GB) used back in 2020.

This is one of the secret recipes of Intel. They can use older tech and push it a little further to catch/surpass current gen tech until current gen becomes easier/cheaper to produce/acquire/integrate.

They have done it with their first quad core processors by merging two dual core processors (Q6xxx series), or by creating absurdly clocked single core processors aimed at very niche market segments.

We have not seen it until now, because they were sleeping at the wheel, and knocked unconscious by AMD.

BBC world news.

Used to be NPR but they have shifted their focus in way that no longer aligns with my interests.

Really, most US news strikes me as overly partisan.
Yes, but braking is not instantaneous. IIRC, the blade will spin for 2-3 seconds (instead of possible 10 without any brake).

It's possible that the guard would close faster than the spin would stop.
Hey! I work on the ML Feature Infra at Netflix, operating a similar system to Chronon but with some crucial differences. What other alternatives aside from Starrocks did you evaluate as potential replacements prior to building Chronon? Curious if you got to try Tecton or Materialize.com.

Advertisers because customers are more likely to buy things.

Nobody benefits from showing me car ads *after* I have already bought a car.

...what they actually don't like is ads.

No, it's *personalized* ads --- ads that are totally divorced from any logical or reasonable context.

It's stupid to assume that I'm still interested in buying a product from last week when I'm viewing a totally unrelated web site. Personalized ads are just plain dumb most of the time.
Why not just tax table saws and drills and put the money in a pool that doctors and hospitals can claim from when uninsured people cut their hands off?
Complexity Is the Enemy (2011)
As posed, this problem is a toy one and fairly easy.

1) The arrival rate is constant, vs the more realistic Poisson distribution

2) The response fits in a single packet

3) Requests are consistent size.

I don't think most companies are going to have the resources to take advantage of QUIC and HTTP/3 for a while.

While head of line blocking is theoretically gone, most programming is based around ordered delivery.

I see lots of projects doing single streams to minimize complexity, but that severely reduces large asset transfer.

I am sure the FAANG crew will gain a lot of advantages, but tooling needs to be there for the rest of us.

Obviously some will take advantage of it, but it is a shift in responsibility to the application and dealing with window scaling and out of order delivery is expensive.

IMHO, UDP is simply a target because legacy systems would make a new option that was superior difficult if impossible to implement.

As I have supported voip and streaming over the public Internet, I admittedly have a jaded view.

But I am not looking forward to supporting the quirks of every client when it was easy to hand that off to the OS.

Hopefully I am wrong, and SWEs will be good at dealing with ood and random failures and standards will offload the cost of implementing what TCP gave us for free.

But I don't think people realize how easy reliable, ordered delivery makes programming.

TBH, I summarized here almost a year of a process into a single paragraph, maybe it's my bad.
A few engineers with good performance minds have already benchmarked and improved some of the queries, and we learned a lot from the process.

My general feeling is that for the average developer, graphql can lead to some serious performance issues, and I wonder if it's just my experience or we are doing something wrong.
If these were the actual concerns, you can start the discussion at jurisdiction. Starting the debates with costs, though, sorta belies that concern?

Then, a problem you are going to run headlong into is that there are plenty of things that you can argue should not be done at different levels, but that are effectively controlled at a larger level. As a fun example, who makes sure that turmeric coming into the US doesn't have too much lead? Why can't/don't we leave that up to the individual states to fully deal with? Probably more fun, what about state laws that cover how much space is required for live stock for shelved products?
Would a push stick have helped this situation?
I think that misses an important argument he makes which is that all table saws should be equipped with better (higher quality, more effective) blade guards and riving knives. Much cheaper to implement and nearly as effective as sawstop.

The problem is woodworkers will do dumb things like remove both of these things from their saws to do unsafe cuts. You can even find youtube videos of people confidently asserting they're useless and just get in the way (They are not).
There are about 3 flights between Tokyo and Nagoya taking about 1hr10 mins. There are 33 bullet trains taking about 1hr 30 mins.

The bullet train is almost certainly faster than the flight when factoring in security, distance from the city center, etc.

And even if this ends up replacing all air travel between Tokyo and Nagoya, you're talking about 500 people each way per day. That's a fraction of 1 of the 33 bullet trains that already run between these 2 cities.

I don't disagree with this project. But it's evident that the project simply doesn't make sense in itself. It's clearly a Proof of Concept that Japan is using to be able to sell MagLev technology abroad in places which currently do not have existing high speed trains and will be choosing between paying a lot of money for bullet trains, or slightly more money for an even faster Maglev train.

Which is a significant justification IMO, but that's a very different justification from saying that this new MagLev line makes sense in of itself.
I'm happy to say that the cow magnets I saw as a kid were more shiny, and (I hope) not used.

I'm not very involved in the broader topic, but isn't the shortage of hardware for AI-related workloads intense enough so as to grant them the benefit of the doubt?
If you wish to convince others of your views, you'll have to provide a lot more than assertions.

As per the article - [..] can sometimes lead to [..]. I don't know how clearer the article can be, there is no proposed "solution" here that solves everything in every scenario. Its simply testing a hypothesis.
Does anyone know why SawStop never bothered to enter the EU market?
Yes, but Jevons paradox only says usage goes up. That usage could have gone to things that help with productivity of the end user rather than going to sluggish frameworks.

I once helped to deliver a set of twins, where twin A (the brother) had started to grow exponentially more than twin B (the sister). He was literally squashing her (which is why they were being born early).
He came out weighing 3kgs, and his poor little sister came out weighing 1kg, and also had a literally somewhat squashed head, to the point that despite her having soft bones (because she was a newborn), she was probably going to require craniofacial surgery. Otherwise both normal healthy babies though.
I’m sure that changed the trajectory of little twin B’s life.
"Potential" is one of those funny words which can be stretched to mean anything.

There are common practices for that sort of thing and 'works for a competitor' falls well within them. The disclosure is so that readers can make their own assessment about whether the possible conflict has introduced actual bias. There really isn't anything complicated to discuss here.
I agree, and non-sarcastically. The GP comment is saying that not only are the researchers are dumb but that most internet commenters (not them) are too.

This doesn't make for a good discussion. There's no easy way to respond to this other than being defensive or adding more snark. It is a discussion ender and if all hackernews comments were like this I would leave the site.
I have had two brake activations in as many weeks, one on a dado stack (don’t ask). Neither destroyed the blade. Both blades will be back in service within a week.

Just putting out there: the popular idea that blades are always trash after an activation is not true.

That said, cheap big box store blades without carbide teeth will die a horrible death.
Maybe some power tools that get only occasional use could be fine with a better rental market. Not long ago I bought a ceramic tile cutter because renting one for 3 days was more expensive that buying one outright, but if that market went towards more expensive but safer models I'd reconsider and would do just fine with renting. And then tradespeople who need these tools more than 10 days per lifetime need to buy upscale anyway...
Same. I've been using a tiny pair of wireless headphones for ~5 years. If anything were to break, it is fairly easy to order replacements on Ebay which causes nothing new to be manufactured.

A set of small wireless headphones uses far less material than a large pair of wired headphones. Not saying it is a direct replacement, just that everything has some environmental impact, and fretting over one tiny device misses the forest for the trees.
If you go listen to their CEO's testimony, he clearly states that the one single original patent behind the idea is now open but was expiring anyway. He brags about them spending a lot of money on R&D and needing to recoup that, reiterating that they have many other patents that aren't being opened that cover the exact implementation. He talked about them exploring those other methods, choosing not to patent them, and only patenting the best solution.

All his words. He's trying to explain that sure, the patent is open, but companies are still going to have to work harder than Sawstop because they have many more patents they refuse to open that cover the best and most logical implementation of this idea.

You're asking for a "cynical" take, but it's not really cynical! The CEO is trying to tell everyone, openly, and they're not listening. They are NOT altruistic, otherwise they would have opened the entire suite of patents. They are openly saying this singular patent is open, because it doesn't matter and that they will doggedly defend their other patents. Now, every other manufacturer will now need to navigate a minefield of patent litigation, and follow the path of subpar implementations that Sawstop ruled out during their R&D.

I don't know why everyone is ignoring his testimony and thinking the company is giving anything up, it's wild!
It doesn't appear that they separated those who believe it would work from those who didn't, to see if there was a placebo effect. That would have been useful.
How would power companies prevent someone from freeloading?
> Let's make it not regulation - which seems to get people up in arms. [...] Instead manufacturers are 100% responsible

I've long been of the opinion that mandatory underwriting is superior to regulation for most things. At least: housing, medicine, and consumer products. Maybe not airplanes, but then again, maybe.

If a manufacturer of table saws was required to be underwritten for claims of injury, they'd find it in their best interest to make those saws as safe as practical.

This itself requires regulation: no skating out of it by having customers sign bullshit waivers, and of course some department would have to audit businesses to see to it that they're complying. But the sum of that is much less costly to taxpayers, and also avoids all the cost-disease which results from a regulatory regime whose interest is in producing paperwork, and which has no incentive to change, streamline, or remove a regulation, once it's in place.

Hacking into Apple's New USB-C Controller
Tokyo to Nagoya now is about 95-100 minutes: 50 minutes is the time difference, not the current duration. It's a little over twice as fast.

I also imagine that like the (cancelled) HS2 in the UK, a major driver is not only faster journeys (though HS2 was a much more marginal time saving, certainly not half) but relieving capacity on the existing "stopping" line, which has 365 trains a day, 450,000 daily passengers and is the busiest high speed line in the world.

I'm the same and fixed the issue by getting some custom eartips made. They aren't cheap but have made my AirPods Pro usable.

On-ear headphones hurt my earlobes and over-ear headphones make my head get hot so I can't seem to find happiness anywhere. The custom eartips I think have gotten me the closest though!

Speaking from my UK perspective - an ebike would entirely replace my car for nearly all of my travelling needs, except that it's impossible to leave it safely in any public space - bicycle theft is absolutely rampant and prosecution is nearly zero, an expensive bike will be stolen, it's just a question of when not if.

It's just a very solid obstacle to this becoming a major way of travelling unless something is done about bike theft.
They are automating the parts you want to work on to replace you. The AI is there to be trained until the your part can be eliminated.
The real question is, how long does it actually have to hang around really? With the way this market is going, it probably only has to be supported in earnest for a few years by which point it'll be so far obsolete that everyone who matters will have moved on.

I've lost either the earbuds or case of so many wireless earbuds during the past 4 years that I could have afforded 2-3 much higher quality wired earbuds.
There's a second aspect to the "tradeoff" that's worth emphasizing: it's not an equal trade. A significant percentage of those injured never fully recover regardless of the insurance money spent. Even a 1:1 trade of prevention vs response dollars means we have tens of thousands fewer permanent injuries.

I'd imagine they had something like that. Probably have to do something special to not burn the ketchup while you heat it.
Why not just set the mandate to begin after most of these patents expire? I would really not brush off how serious of a safety problem this is, but honestly I’d rather the government either delay the implementation or buy out the patents because this is a blatant market failure of public interest that the government is well poised to address. Digit amputation incurs a public cost even in America.

Plugging into a USB-C port in the center of the bottom side feels a lot less sturdy than plugging into the audio port closer to the side. Decreased the lifetime of the wires by a lot as well, it felt like. I've tried for a while before finally giving up and getting bluetooth earbuds.
