And to your original comment, I think the reviewer was wrong to reject the PR over that. Performance has to be measured before you can use it to reject (or create...) a PR. If someone hasn't done that then unless it's something obvious like "You are making a ton of tiny heap allocations in a tight loop" then I think nitpicking these sorts of things is just wrong.
I don't need to do meaningless tasks to remind myself thst we should find better ways to treat our habitat and the resources in it. Less consumption and more robust and reusable packaging is the solution, not doing pointless tasks for awareness.
because a standard hasn't emerged in the decades it's been for one to emerge. the closest we've got after the AA and AAA is the 18650 and that's not all that common as a consumer battery.

Those are special cases of perspective projection, but they are non-physical because they ignore occlusion. I prefer perspective projections that correspond at least roughly to what a physical camera could see, or, more importantly, an eye. That's what I mean by "intuitive".
Perl has supported whitespace and comments in regular expressions since approximately forever. Just use the /x modifier. All that Raku did was make that flag a default.

The same thing is available in many other languages. They copied it when they copied from Perl. For example Python's https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#flags documents that re.X, also called re.VERBOSE, does the same exact thing.

The fact that people don't use it is because few people care to learn regular expressions well enough to even know that it is an option. One of my favorite examples of astounding people with this was when I was writing a complex stored procedure in PostgreSQL. I read https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/functions-matching.h.... I looked for flags. And yup, there is an x flag. It turns on "extended syntax". Which does the same exact thing. I needed a complex regular expression that I knew my coworkers couldn't have written themselves. So I commented the heck out of it. They couldn't believe that that was even a thing that you could do!
On this post alone, there are several of those comments after that. So, it's not stopped.
"Garbage" is harsh. It's flawed but they are streets ahead of Pico or Vive.

Seems to me this is more about the danger of passing anything derived from user input into the TEMPLATE side of a templating engine. Why in the world would you ever do that?!?

Obviously if you pass data into the variable side of the engine, you hardly have to worry about it at all, since it's already going into a place that was designed for handling arbitrary and possibly-hostile input and been battle-tested at doing it correctly in Production for many years. If you pass it into the template side, you're betting that you can be as good as dozens of templating engine writers working for a decade at doing that, in exchange for, well, I can't really think of any possible legitimate advantage for doing that.
I'm working on a full time job that leaves me almost with no time for personal projects. I've created some miner projects that address personal issues, and I do miss sharing fun stuff here. So I'm glad to say that this weekend i got a new raycaster engine going, using DDA algorithm. By the way this raycasting is related to the Wolfenstein game, not this modern stuff. Right now i got the basic stuff out of the way and as soon as i have more stuff I'll share it here.
By “single source” do you mean “single stream”? With “single stream recycling” meaning consumers put all recyclable products into a single bin, vs. multi stream, where consumers are expected to separate recycled goods into multiple categories.

If so, then yeah, multi stream is generally considered more efficient. Obviously some central sorting/filtering is still needed, but much less.

As for recycling in general, it’s considered a decent win for plenty of materials. Making cans from recycled aluminum takes only a tiny fraction of the energy of producing new aluminum cans, paper recycling does reduce the need for forestry, most recycling reduces the need for landfills, etc. It’s mostly plastic recycling that is useless, and just there to make ppl feel better about their plastic consumption.

It's 8-10 hours to transit the canal. Assuming a train is faster, you'd still need almost 40 trains to carry the same number of containers...are 40 trains still faster in total?

Sure, you could scale it and build 10 train tracks side-by-side (whoa!) which would support 5 trains in each direction, and then you'd only need to get 8 trains faster in total.

And that's disregarding the 3-4 days needed on either end to unload/load the ships.

> If grapes could grow everywhere with the required quality I guess good wine would be cheaper than soda.

You guess wrong [1]. Check the concepts of offer-demand and markets. Most of the value of the bottle is just taxes.

> this fruit must have a relatively limited growing range

A very limited range indeed. This fruit is cultured in Russia, Australia, Portugal, USA, Germany, Italy and Chile. And is not cultured on many other countries because religious beliefs.

Grapes can grow in a lot of places, but we aren't talking about that; We are talking about a particular Spanish area, and Spain grows vine in every place with weather capable to grow vine, from Galicia to Canary Islands. What grapes don't grow in Antarctic (they could grow perfectly [2]) is not related with the allegedly problems that one Catalonian vine maker claim to have.

[1] Well, there is very cheap and good home-made vine available in some places so in that sense you are right).

[2] Making vine in Antarctic is just anti-economic, but not technologically impossible. Would somebody agree to pay one billion dollars each bottle, we would have a crop of polar vine in a few years. This is for sure, grapes can be cultivated in a big pot

David Crane, the creator of Pitfall, explains it all very nicely in a GDC Classic Game Postmortem [1]. I'm linking at the relevant timestamp, but the whole video is pure Atari 2600 goodness. The full Postmortems playlist is quite enjoyable too. I particularly liked the talks about the original Deus Ex, Myst, Loom, Adventure, Marble Madness, Ms. Pac-Man, Paperboy, Lemmings, and more.

Unfortunately it's true that a lot of plastic is just burnt.

In Sweden we consider ourselves as very advanced in recycling but there was just a story in the news today where they said that old snow toys were just NOW, sometimes, being recycled. Even though it costs more to recycle them than to burn them, some companies are making the effort to recycle them just to be more environmental.

But I've been recycling plastics in my home for a decade. So wtf...
I totally agree with you, it is a luxury to be able to live minimally knowing you can afford to just buy/rent/hire for a need when it comes up. On the other hand having less money means you might need to keep more tools or spare parts around just in case which means more clutter.
Arrow JS is just ArrayBuffers underneath. You do want to amortize some operations to avoid unnecessary conversions. I.e. Arrow JS stores strings as UTF-8, but native JS strings are UTF-16 I believe.

Arrow is especially powerful across the WASM <--> JS boundary! In fact, I wrote a library to interpret Arrow from Wasm memory into JS without any copies [0]. (Motivating blog post [1])

having recently done similar day-and-night long suites of benchmarks (on a laptop in heat dissipation conditions worse than on any decent desktop), I've found that there is no correlation between the order the benchmarks are run in and their performance (or energy consumption!). i would therefore assume that a non-overclocked processor would not exhibit the patterns you are thinking of here
To be fair its not only this thread.
This is not true.

Reading in print has lots of benefits, particularly for learning and comprehension, as opposed to reading on a screen.

Beyond the simplest level of comprehension, reading in print has clear and proven benefits. This became very obvious during the pandemic.

Here is a good article with several citations: https://theconversation.com/why-we-remember-more-by-reading-...

>The discrepancies between print and digital results are partly related to paper’s physical properties. With paper, there is a literal laying on of hands, along with the visual geography of distinct pages. People often link their memory of what they’ve read to how far into the book it was or where it was on the page.

>But equally important is mental perspective, and what reading researchers call a “shallowing hypothesis.” According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to casual social media, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.
That's what it's about for Meta, sure. But for Google it would be about selling apps on a headset, and being prohibited from selling the native type of app for the platform would be pretty bad!

Meta wants to have their cake and eat it too. If it's their intention to allow third party stores to sell native Quest AR/VR apps on the headset in competition with their own store, they should state that explicitly because what's written here pretty carefully doesn't imply that. I don't think we can just assume what isn't stated here.
Wow, what an amazing escape game!!!
But if it is all ineffectual, then maybe it has the opposite effect.

If people think they are already doing something, they might see less need to make the hard choices.

So how can I actually fill in the title page info for an APA student paper (e.g. department). Also, author and other "export" info doesn't seem to be saved. APA by default supports in-flow tables, which is not legal in APA. So many basic formatting issues with APA.

Essayist remains the best option, though it painfully lacks table support. Monster looks like it could be useful in maybe a year or so of development.
But that's the most interesting part of the article - that Amazon and HBO projects are being worked on by NORTH KOREAN workers!!! I totally agree with the HN headline and I'm glad it got me to click and read the entire article.
Is it though?

I note that complaints about Google crawling the Internet to harvest data into a search index generally fall on deaf ears, but complaints about it harvesting that data into OneBox tend to generate buzz. This suggests the issue isn't the harvesting but how the data is transformed or resurfaced.

And there's nuance as to whether training a generative pre-trained transformer should be thought of more like collecting content to reshare without permission or indexing content to build something novel.
I might be wrong, but I believe the 18650 is the commodity cell inside most proprietary battery packs.

I wonder if they could keep their proprietary pack design, but instead force the individual cells to be replaceable (ie don’t use solder tabs)? That would be standardized enough for me.

I think your theory is people like to do whatever is most illegal, but that doesn't seem right. Mopeds must be preferred over e-bikes for some reason; e-bikes don't require a license, insurance, or plates. (I laugh because this theory appeals to me somewhat; e-bikes were super popular when they were illegal, then they were legalized, and now everyone's riding unregistered mopeds instead. But I think it's a change unrelated to the law; another comment mentions the transition from per-restaurant delivery crews to the apps requiring a larger radius, that seems most logical to me.)

I do hope that peak moped was some time in the past. I can look the other way about maybe not obeying every traffic control device when you're not burning any fossil fuels, but if you're just going to burn gas less efficiently than a car, I can't get too excited.
That spells out the penalty if you don't follow the law, but where does it say you must recycle?

Looks similar to me. LispWorks also had patch releases in between. Both are on the market for more than 35 years. Both are mostly written with CLOS and thus are especially to update with patches, additionally to the usual ways to update code (-> late binding). One just loads patches (which are mostly compiled Lisp code) into a running Lisp and that's it. Alternatively one can save a new image with patches loaded.

When one needs a patch or a feature, one would typically contact them directly. Both provide patches to the users.

Franz has made that simple for the user, they have a relatively continuously stream of patches, one can call an update function and it gets the necessary patches and installs them.

SBCL has monthly (!) releases, where the user (that's what I do) would typically compile it from scratch using the supplied sources. Updating is quick, around a minute for a recompile.
Coincidentally, I saw Meta ads plastered all over London today - showcasing a welder who claims she practiced/learned welding with a Meta Oculus sitting at home.
I’m also surprised that slurs/slang/foul language in usernames is allowed unless the server is overwhelmed and things are slipping past the validation.
It can read from HTTP urls, but you'd need to manage signing the URLs yourself. On the writing side, it currently writes to an ArrayBuffer, which then you could upload to a server or save on the user's machine.
Unfortunately there's no proof that the spam accounts are linked to said site.

My only worry with the “reminder” aspect here is the idea that “well if I just recycle I’m doing my part” which is… not going to do much to address any of the problems we have in the environment.

Whereas the blood drives and even World War II were much shorter and acute problems. They didn’t require actual permanent lifestyle changes from the doing your part perspective. I.e. something like never flying again or never buying plastic water bottles.

The article doesn't mention much about chip-to-controller distance or path length, presumably this suffers from the same issues we currently see where low power devices (and in some desktop configurations as well) can't really ever get those speeds unless the DRAM chips are near or on top of the CPU substrate.

It's nearly impossible to do those numbers in modern mobile form factors, even CAMM is having a hard time getting there with modularised memory.
