Also neat, bundling of send/recv.

- Taylor gives you polynomial optimized for the evaluation of one point.
- naive Newton gives you a polynomial with 0 error in the interpolation points [but the system has a bad condition]
- Chebychev gives you a polynomial with minimal error over the interval of choice.

So there is no real reason to ever use the Taylor series to approximate a function over an interval. The high school math teachers are lying.
> This is what happened with Crimea and the part of Donbas they occupied in 2014.

That's a distorted view of reality. In 2008, Ukraine was very far from being in a position to join NATO, or even to want to. When the 2014 revolution happened, remember that there was a pro-Russia elected president in Ukraine. The Donbas war and the Crimea annexation happened exactly in response to the ousting of that president by the Maidan Revolution. Most of the Donbas was/is strongly pro-Russian (they had been voting for Pro-Russian governments since the independence of Ukraine from the USSR, just check some maps of pre-2014 elections results by Ukrainian region). So, no, that's not what happened in 2014 at all, and I don't understand why some people are repeating this narrative uncritically.

> As for nuclear weapons - ask yourself why hasn't USA nuked Vietnam, Iraq or Afghanistan.

The USA had no business in those countries. That has nothing to do with the situation in Russia, where they see Ukraine alignment as absolutely essential for their defense strategy. Vietnam is exactly in the opposite side of the world from the USA. Ukraine is basically the gate to the Russian heartlands. If you hold Ukraine, Russia cannot effectively defend against you. It's such a completely different situation that I must ask if you're trolling?
A whole bunch of assumptions, mostly of the form “what other things look like from far away is probably what we look like from far away”. And “there probably isn’t anything that makes our perspective different from others”. We can’t test these, of course. But people are happy to assume them because without that there isn’t a field.
> It's possible to build a life that attempts to solve the world's problems.

The mere attempting is what I think isn't especially worthwhile. Actually helping is worthwhile.

And if someone is building their life to somewhat directly solve these problems, then they aren't getting distracted. They may have chosen to become journalists or sustainability experts.

Ditto if they're in a field like music paying attention but not so much attention that they're distracted. Their contributions to society within their field can often indirectly help.

I see people who are pulled in a lot of different directions by their heartstrings and I don't think it's effective. Many latch on to someone like Bernie or Andrew Yang. Sivers said "the media" and I think right now it's social media. And I'm distracted by it as well. I'm going to have to do something deliberate to cut my social media distraction.

It would be an interesting challenge to see how far someone could drive surrounded only by cornfields. I'll even allow corn-free travel inside city limits.

Orson Welles on film editing [video]
I noticed if I stare into the forest without focusing on any particular thing my vision starts to shimmer a bit and sometimes there are distinctive little perturbations in my peripheral vision.

My mind wants to immediately look directly at the perturbations at an almost instinctive level. If I do look I frequently see a leaf moving in the wind or a bird or squirrel moving around in the tree.

By intentionally using this effect rather than actively scanning the forest I find I am much better at finding birds when bird watching or seeing larger animals such as foxes, deer, or snakes moving in the grass.

It's amazing how many things our bodies are capable of that we don't know about until we step away from electronics and machinery and just let the body do its thing.

I find it funny and also ironic that a lot of modern languages re-discover Lisp's amazing features decades later. The other day I was infuriated to see my Python program halt after 9 hours of API calling to my own home server. The API calls were similar (calling an LLM with a pre-defined prompt template, constrained using grammars). I wanted to save the state of the program and exit it before running the remaining iterations separately. So I needed a way to modify the current running Python code and inspect the variables. I couldn't figure out a way to "dig into" the running Python process and save the state and/or fix it. So I lost 9 hours worth of work.

A couple days later, I saw this:

https://malisper.me/debugging-lisp-part-1-recompilation/

The fact that CL had this feature built into the language decades ago just blows my mind. Not to mention numerous other features (like the most powerful macro system there is), etc.
it is a cluster without question

compared to a super computer cluster a small highly simplified cluster with a fraction of total practical compute power then even a single node of many other cluster system but still a cluster

and the way it has blades and a bunch with each having multiple cards on them and a single shared buss connecting all of them and then a higher level bus which interconnects the blades is (from a generic far away POV) quite similar to how super computer cluster might be build, just much much simpler
Show HN: I made a tool for analyzing wind conditions for bike rides
Hi all,
Wanted to share a project I just launched. WindMate is a web app that integrates with Strava to give users insights into how their rides are being affected by weather conditions. I use weather data from tomorrow.io which is the gold standard in the industry, so it is super accurate. Users can see current conditions for any route, as well as an hourly forecast up to 12 hours ahead for users on the free plan and 2 days ahead for WindMate+ subscribers (priced at only 2.50/month :) ) It also features an automatic caption generator for activities on Strava, which breaks down the wind conditions on that particular ride so you can share it. In addition to that - and I haven't found a single other service that does this - you can see how weather conditions affected your *past* rides, no matter how far back. I've received a lot of good feedback on that feature! Plus, the design is clean and features a cute penguin (pengwind?) so check it out!

For people who are curious about how it works under the hood, it is basically built to connect easily with a Strava account (ie. no account creation needed!), then uses their API to get data about rides and the segments the user is interested in. We get hyperlocal hourly weather data from tomorrow.io that is mapped onto the segment polyline to display which sections will be a headwind/crosswind/tailwind. The analysis also factors in wind magnitude, temperature and air pressure. The project is built in React with a Firebase backend (Firestore + Cloud Functions)

Would love to hear your feedback!
Well, of course some people do want to call it language, but so far it's not clear that it is. We might say it's so complex it's more like a symphony than birdsong, but a symphony doesn't necessarily have anything like semantic content. Given the way whale songs evolve over time, with wanna-be whales imitating the cool whales, it's quite possible that it's pretty much all showing off their talents rather than communicating ideas.
I can’t access the full paper, but from the abstract, is it accurate that they’re using ML techniques to synthesize higher-quality and higher-resolution imagery, and that’s the basis for their claim that it’s comparable to the output of a conventional MRI scan?

Do clinicians really prefer that the computer make normative guesses to “clean up” the scan, versus working with the imagery reflecting the actual measurements and applying their own clinical judgment?
The device is actually designed to scan 20 people at the same time. It’s cheap because you get a bulk discount on your scans.
Just gotta accept that some things are out of your control. Or go work for the profit center, employees in good standing working on ads at google werent laid off.
Simply consider any constant morphism and it is obvious that OPs statement is false. As you say one needs injectivity.
This is remarkable. 1800W is like a fancy blender, amazing to be able to do a useful MRI at that power.

For anyone who is unaware, a standard MRI machine is about 1.5T (so 30x the magnetic strength) and uses 25kW+. For special purposes you may see machines up to 7T, you can imagine how much power they need and how sensitive the equipment is.

Lowering the barriers to access to MRIs would have a massive impact on effective diagnosis for many conditions.

Noted, although I do think it's production ready. I'm going to keep updating the library if or when a new version of the Elixir compiler breaks it, and it does feature an easy way out in case I disappear.

This is something of a distinction without a difference when we're talking about Western use of ideographic writing in general. Ideographs that are put together from existing symbols are still ideographs if the final shape represents an idea that it also physically resembles. Emoticons were widely used in exactly the same place where we find emoji today, and were conceptually perceived as atomic units, not as colon + parenthesis or whatever.

What makes an emoji different than an emoticon is mostly that some official body gave official recognition to the emoji's existence by adopting it in Unicode and didn't do so for the emoticon.

Capitalism has raised billions of people out of poverty. Yes, the people who are no longer starving are happy to no longer be starving. Communism on the other hand usually leads to mass famine. Even nordic democratic socialism is falling apart. None of the systems are perfect, they are all hampered by power hungry leaders. Capitalism clearly seems to be the best option.

The Vietnamese managed do exactly that its colonial occupier (the United States) some 50 years ago. France got kicked out of Algeria. The U.S. got its ass handed back to it again, Afghanistan just a few years ago. In order to reverse an occupation, one doesn't need total, crushing victory (though that would of course be more than welcome on the ground in Ukraine). You just have to convince the occupier that project will be ultimately unsustainable.

And that the time has come to pick up their toys and go home.

‘Ancient technology that’s lost to us’ is one of those phrases that is used to construct a motte and bailey argument which opens a gap through which some crazy theories get inserted, so it’s worthy of being treated with skepticism.

Are there ancient structures where we are unsure what technologies were used to make them? Yes, absolutely.

Does the existence of such artifacts imply the existence of certain precursor technologies and tools used to build them? Yes, but we must proceed cautiously. Without direct evidence of the tools and technologies used we are speculating based on the results we observe, about what the means used to produce them must have been. The same result, though, can be produced in many different ways. Problems we look at today and say ‘surely that would require a machine or a powerful engine to do?’ might be solved instead by just throwing manpower at the problem, or by taking much more time to execute than we might initially assume is reasonable. And the existence of doubt about which of several historically plausible theories as to how something was constructed does not automatically mean that historically implausible theories are equally valid.

And, most importantly, does the fact that we have ‘lost’ the precise techniques used in ancient constructions leave open the possibility that those ancient techniques were actually superior to what we have today? Theoretically, but in general, no, of course not. Be very wary whenever you see someone say something like ‘the precision of these stone blocks exceeds what we can do today’. These are nonsensical claims made from ignorance about what modern engineering is capable of. Take a look just at how modern kitchen counters are cut, let alone how precisely engineered something like a modern tunnel, or the LIGO gravity wave detector was constructed.

Why does 30 feel like a deadline?
I’m going to be 28 in a month, and I’ve never felt more emergency in my entire life even though I just had a good pizza and everything seems chill.

This feeling sometimes haunts me at night. Some days are good, I sleep well and I have a good morning coffee. Other days I feel like I am an absolute fucking failure.

I stopped taking advice from anyone regarding career expectations because I suddenly woke up to the fact that everyone is probably trying to figure it out, even the most successful ones. Luck is probably a bigger component of most successes and no one seems to know everything for sure. All what someone has in terms of advice seems to be their “best guesses”.

From where I stand I don’t see any reason to take someone’s best guess over mine. If we’re all trying to figure it out, then I don’t trust anybody, except maybe a few second hand experiences from people that I find worthy.

Because we’re all different, I find that most career advice sums up to garbage, at best.

I don’t know whether in June 2026 I’d wake up feeling anew, as if post 30 is a new age where life would feel like it’s just starting, or I would crush myself in despair.

For now I like to think that most of it will depend on what would happen during the next 2 years. Strange I know!

There was also a relatively popular fork shorter_maps [0], mentioned in the blog post above. My motivation for implementing es6_maps instead of using/updating shorter_maps was (I'm copying from my post in the Elixir forums [1]):

1. I do firmly believe this is a good language feature and a very natural extension of map literals syntax;

2. at the same time, being a language feature it should be simple - es6_maps works only with atom keys and has no extra features over the key expansion.

Point 1 is additionally reinforced by how easy it was to introduce to the compiler - I’m injecting just 9 lines of simple code, while parser and lexer already accept short-form maps without modifications.
