Ask HN: I want to learn to use the terminal, where do I start
as the title states, i want to become familiar/proficient in using the terminal on my mac, and just in general the code used in terminal/CLI. any tips on where to get started, like some online free course to follow? tips/help appreciated
> Another anecdote, a Chinese friend of mine from college just passed the N1 with a perfect score.

The Japanese Language Proficiency Test does not include a speaking portion, which is the part of Japanese that Chinese people usually struggle with most - being kanji masters, the rest looks a breeze, lucky them! That tempers the point somewhat (somewhat).
It's a great thing in the way that it brings the processes and technology to build high-speed rail to the USA.

This makes sense. If you personally don’t like someone’s writing style it means that they do not have the factual basis to back up their claims even if they provide them. The exonerating context exists because the meanness online cannot be both correct and not to your stylistic preference

Well, when you have about $200B cash sitting around, it would be silly to not invest a few B of that into foundational bets. Owning your own Silicon is the A-game of vertical integration. If you can even marginally improve performance / power ratio with deep hardware/software integration (say 10% better), compared to the industry, you can start doing things nobody in the industry can. Who knows, they may be able to flip that work into their VR stuff and other "small device" categories.
WTF is DORA - you should explain this or give a link at least... Thanks :)

When a large search engine deranks spam websites, the spam websites complain! Loudly! With Google they have a big juicy target with lots of competing ventures for an antitrust case; no such luck for Kagi or DDG.
Presumably there is some arcane trick that somebody will argue is only implementable in this way, but I would personally never let such code through review.
Always distribute the blame to the single consumer!
And if it says the human got it wrong, then tough luck for the human if they didn't. :(
Which is $10 per customer per month more than they’d get if everyone was using CarPlay / Android Auto.

It’s been proven time and time again that vertical integration is a massive money earner and you can bet that if Tesla were to release a smartphone then support for that in their cars would be a software update that follows immediately after. But since there’s no plans for a phone, the next best thing is a subscription-based infotainment system.
The American/western hearts and minds are a playing field and a battleground, which the rogue powers are struggling to control at the moment.

Control the media and people's ability to consume information but give people the illusion it's free and open.

Platforms such as this, and any Western one is tightly controlled.

Tiktok, the outlier and it needs to be brought into the fold asap. Instagram, Facebook, YouTube's censorship of Gaza's conflict are abiding by the memo by silencing voices speaking up.
If you use all the `--no-` flags (e.g. `--no-tailwind`) when creating a Phoenix project, you will be left with a surprisingly small amount of code.

This is not so useful in a real project, but good as a learning exercises to see what comprises the core of a Phoenix application.

FWIW, everything starts in your project's `lib/project/application.ex` file. All the things in the `start` function dictate the "flow" of the application.

I created a startup 2 years ago around a gigantic rabbit hole: understanding cause-and-effect and how you can move towards the outcome you want in a consistent way.

In case you want to have unlimited fun yourself, ask yourself: "What is the purpose of X?" and then "how can you measure/assess the fit-for-purpose of it?"

Possible Side-effects:
#1 you might get disgusted and even angry with the self-declared "experts" who have not even understood the basic concepts.

#2 you might learn how little you understand yourself and how deep the rabbit hole goles.

Example in Software Development: Understand the quality dimensions for a "definition of ready" and what impact a good/used DoR has compared to a bad/not used DoR for the efficiency and effectiveness of a software development process.
> But why is it that rainbow flags (pride, et al) are considered the pro-Palestinian side in the conflict.

FWIW in the German speaking countries it's the opposite (for obvious historical reasons).

Generally, I think it's ok to demonstrate against atrocities even if the victims are not your "friends". What I do find disturbing is when progressives try to justify the Hamas terror as an act of "resistance" (one famous example being Judith Butler). That is truely fucked up.
Show me the receipts. :-)

In general it takes a significant amount of nondeterministic pointer chasing to fool modern branch predictors. Decades of research have been put into optimizing the hardware for languages like C++ and Java, both of which exhibit a lot of pointer chasing.
CPU inference is “OK” on quantized models smaller than 10B

Gives at least a couple tokens per sec on fast modern CPUs.

So it really depends on how fast the speed needs to be and the expected loads, compute cost and budget etc etc
I don’t know as haven’t worked there, but have always heard Apple described more as a series of companies/startups than one coherent entity like Meta or whatever. Each is allowed a large degree of autonomy from what I’ve heard.
> There is a semi-famous internal document he wrote where he argued against the other search leads that Google should use less machine-learning, or at least contain it as much as possible, so that ranking stays debuggable and understandable by human search engineers.

There's a lot of ML hate here, and I simply don't see the alternative.

To rank documents, you need to score them. Google uses hundreds of scoring factors (I've seen the number 200 thrown about, but it doesn't really matter if it's 5 or 1000.) The point is you need to sum these weights up into a single number to find out if a result should be above or below another result.

So, if:

- document A is 2Kb long, has 14 misspellings, matches 2 of your keywords exactly, matches a synonym of another of your keywords, and was published 18 months ago, and

- document B is 3Kb long, has 7 misspellings, matches 1 of your keywords exactly, matches two more keywords by synonym, and was published 5 months ago

Are there any humans out there who want to write a traditional forward-algorithm to tell me which result is better?
guess I missed it, im used to scrolling and seeing screenshots and features on splash page. I must admit I wasn't very interested in this piece of software to begin with.
I've heard this argument again and again, but I never see any explanation as to why SEO is suddenly in the lead in this cat-and-mouse game. They were trying ever since Google got 90%+ market share.

I think it's more likely that Google stopped really caring.
If the issue only arises at the White House, maybe a paved helipad might be the best solution?

Israel didn't "move their troops into Gaza at will", not until this current war. After Israel's disengagement from Gaza, it had no soldiers in Gaza at all.

It also doesn't "control Gaza's borders" alone, fwiw.

> On the other hand of course Gazans do not enjoy Israel's constitutional protections, etc.

Not sure what this is "on the other hand" of exactly. Palestinian's want self-determination, Gaza was an incomplete, one-sided and limited form of that, but a form of that. When you're talking about them enjoying Israeli constitutional protections, you're talking about the opposite - Israel essentially conquering Gaza and annexing it officially, turning Gazans into Israeli citizens. Not an outcome that Israel wants and also not an outcome that Gazans want.

And in the context of LGBT rights, that's an outcome that is almost guaranteed to lead to a huge erosion of LGBT rights in Israel, as it'd be adding millions of voters who currently live in a place and culture in which homosexuals are ilterally thrown off rooftops.
tl;dr - Growth will eventually kill everything.

As soon as someone asks "How can we make (more) money from this?" the thing is doomed.
Incoherent.
Have you read the article this thread is about?

To summarize it: Google reverted an algorithm that detected SEO spams in 2019.

it feels like the same person is posting under different nicks

for what purpose I do not know.
I was impressed by their _CPU_ kernels in OpenVINO which I studied very closely after discovering I cannot beat their performance even on kernels specialized for my specific tensor shapes. Turns out the reason I can't beat them is because they jitted their kernels with xbyak, and specialized them for those shapes, too. They also obviously knew exactly how to maximize the ALU utilization, and counted every cycle, something that's very hard to do unless you specialize _just_ on CPU performance and have access to the internal documentation. Top notch work. But that team used to be in Russia back then, in Nizhny Novgorod, IDK if it's still a part of Intel.

I originally learned much from the bash programming guide and advanced bash programming guide. While Mac uses zsh, you can still learn quite a bit that will carry over, and you can always run bash scripts with the `#!/bin/bash`

Learn basic commands, use Youtube.

`man` will tell you the usage of most commands `man cp` for example will give you an explanation on the command `cp`.

Learn to use `grep` and `find`. And you'll also want to learn bash (the programming language).
why doesn't anybody else build this? north america in comparison is stuck in the 19th century when it comes to rail transportation. its bizarre.
>The question should be why Intel added another processor instead of extending AVX.

It seems that efficient cores don't support much of AVX extensions. You have to turn those cores off if you want to use AVX512, for example.
No, just:

main.books {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, 180px);
grid-gap: 1rem;
justify-content: space-between;
}

That will make the child items 180px wide, repeat as many children in a row as needed to fill the width with a gap of atleast 1rem extended so that the items are justified to the left and right and are spread evenly. The last row has however many children are left with those children positioned to match the rows above.

This is getting the most extreme social mind control tool mankind has ever created out of the hands of a government that did Tianemen Square and is doing the Uygers right now. A government who controls all under its purview with an iron fist, and shares absolutely zero common interests with any young person in the west.

The resistance to it on this forum, of all places, is kind of incredible.

But rule-based machine translation, from what I've seen, is just so bad. ChatGPT (and other LLM) is miles ahead. After seeing what ChatGPT does, I can't even call rule-based machine translation "tranlation".

*Disclaimer: as someone who's not an AI researcher but did quite some human translation works before.
No comment would have been better than this comment. Now both the software and its defenders sound really hostile and off-putting.
Reminds me a bit of Lotus Agenda. That never made it out of DOS (except in Hobbs, the unreleased prototype Windows version)
Well, that’s a beautiful irony of life.
Type checking has caught SO many bugs that would otherwise have taken a 30 second test to find. The time savings really adds up, and it catches a fair amount of bugs that otherwise would have made it to prod.

To me it's one of the top requirements for a modern language.
> There's OSS at the large-scale level (Linux, Firefox, Postgres) where the model is clearly working and sustainable.

Is it, really? At "the large-scale level" of the project, perhaps -- but what do we know about how "sustained" individual contributors even to those projects feel they are being?
What i mean is that you can save a project and just open saved file as sqlite file. Without need to export anything. That file contains all information needed for app. User data plus meta data used by BeeBase.
A glowing endorsement, but deserved? Under "more like this" we find multiple hit-pieces by Zitron, hating on one man. You guessed it, Musk Bad Man.

Never heard of Zitron, but I won't be back. His bitterness is on verge of unhealthy obsession. Oddly word-stuffed rants, sounds like he spent ages constructing different ways to criticise Musk.

> "He has spent $44 billion in an attempt to make people love him only to be left with a very expensive way to make people angry at him every single day for the rest of his life."

So much hot air. "Fresh air of tech journalism," you say?

Another piece "Musk Is Dangerous To Society" I didn't read since the spoiler is kind of right there in the title!
I agree with you, but in general any theory in the form of "the world should/shouldn't do XYZ" quickly falls apart when it meets reality. If you maintain any public communication channel, you are bound to get a bit of garbage coming in. You cannot fix it by saying how things should be.
Microsoft made a big mistake killing XNA. The Xbox 360 had a great community of indie developers.
Honestly I think LibreOffice Base (and its brethren) are underappreciated and underdeveloped pieces of software these days. In 80s/90s stuff like dBase and Access seemingly were relatively popular, but that whole category of software seems to have mostly died out which is imho a shame. I suppose Access being somewhat notoriously horrible has something to do with that, suffocating the whole field. Considering how much business users are stretching Excel to fill the gap, I do think there would be demand for better options. I guess Airtable etc are the modern alternatives.

I find it just a shame that databases as a concept is something that has been relegated to be hidden deep in the backends and accessed only by specialized DB admins or through narrow and leaky APIs; SQL is considered arcane wizardry instead of being suitable for technical business users like afaik it was originally envisioned as.
a great place to start would be to take a few smaller tasks that you do everyday and use terminal to do those

i'll also suggest trying to automate smaller tasks by leveraging scripts and terminal

best way to learn is to do

The island of La Palma in the Canaries archipelago pioneered the idea of a "dark skies" law back in 2007. It seems to have worked. It still houses most of Europe's active research observatories.

Light pollution is one of these less discussed impacts of our ever expanding economic activity. While it affects astronomers directly, it degrades quality of life for everybody. In the Netherlands there is almost no place in the country to actually see a dark sky (the Milkyway).

We are slowly trapping ourselves within a giant envelope of chemical (gas, particulate), sound, light and other electromagnetic pollutions, hoping that it will all work out ok without corrective action.

Supporting Unicode in itself does not nudge anyone towards localizing their codebase.

Please consider that as a (presumably young or young-ish) European, you have access to different educational resources, and are exposed to a cultural context where English is the lingua franca. As a Bulgarian, or any other European nationality, the only foreign language you truly need to learn to get by almost anywhere on the continent is English.

There are many, many countries and places on Earth where English is a significant barrier, due to being much further away, geographically and culturally.

While English is unavoidable after a certain level (just like French is unavoidable for a chef, or Italian is for a musician), it is crucially important that the barrier to entry does not also necessarily come with huge a language barrier up front.
It's not about a user, it's about someone declining to become a user because the manual is distributed as a separate PDF. I see two solutions for this problem, either use another software or hire someone to adapt this one to you.

As a user you know the basic constraints on table names, if you don't you can't use the software.
I started valuing the enclosure that comes with the 10 dollar versions (e.g. the M5stack atom).

Since most use-cases for me are literally 1 sensor connected to an Atom, it (largely) fixes the enclosure problem. Although I'd like to have more DIN rail mounted options.
Since when did the military start letting a computer assign everyone their command-ranks? :p

I don't understand what you're trying to say here. Sure, people are using more computers everywhere, but that doesn't necessarily change fundamental guidelines we already used, like "each time someone could betray you and doesn't, that suggests they are trustworthy in the future."
So you, as opposed to your customers, are just as grumpy and rude as the rest of us...? ;-)

Sorry, couldn't resist. But your observation -- basically, that if you want non-rude users / customers, don't direct your product at programmers / hackers / geeks -- is so common as to be almost a truism. Why is this? Are we all assholes, or WTF?!? Do we have to be?

Sigh...
Well yeah, it's in the article - at some point, they switched completely to metrics (i.e. revenue) driven management and forgot that it's the quality of results that actually made Google what it is. And, with a largely captive audience (Google being the default-search-engine-that-most-people-don't-bother-or-don't-know-how-to-change in Chrome, Android, on Chromebooks etc.), they arguably don't have to care anymore...
Yeah, your comments read like trolling.
As I understand it, east-west lines in the Baltic countries are being left in Russian gauge while new north-south lines will (of course!) be in standard gauge. Which is totally excellent until they finally get around (in some future century) to building the rail tunnel to Finland, whereupon they (i.e. Finland) will have to make some choices.
In my opinion the best part about where AI models stand today is that they have a potential to simplify our work pipelines.

More ideas can flow freely and easily, things are automated in a smooth fashion.

I'm a marketer turned data science professional, so right from growth pieces, copy ideas to even exploring exploratory data analysis and cleaning that might be time consuming is what works for me today.

so even if AI doesn't grow from here I still am saving hours every week
If the CCP "wins" we'll be dealing with overbearing authoritarianism regardless.

There's this wonderful paper from Usenix OSDI 2014 [1] in which the authors present an eidetic system: "a computer system [should] provide the ability to recall any past state that existed on the computer, and further, [should] be able to provide the lineage of any byte in a current or past state."

They implemented and evaluated it, too: "Preliminary data from several weeks of continuous use [show that] storage requirements for 4 or more years of usage can be satisfied by adding a 4 TB hard drive to the system. Further, the performance overhead on almost all workloads we measured was under 8%."
