Like, pretty much 90% of any space based things from science fiction.

Imagine if what you put in orbit (or indeed into deep space) was limited by your imagination, not by the very limited capability of launch vehicles.

I would not be surprised that most revolutionary thing that this level of launch capacity will enable hasn't even been suggested yet.
What does this have to do with the content of the article?
This is a challenging thing to get right. It's interesting seeing your back and forth with the other commenters on here.
It seems kind of weird to claim it is Russia when the common argument is that Russia supports right wing parties.

According to the Politico article mentioned in the article:

> The center-right Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA), Geert Wilders' far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) and the populist, far-right Forum for Democracy (FvD) all experienced problems with their websites.

So only right wing parties were hit?

I think a lot of it is simply that systems (with the exception of games) are designed in traditional ways, which are not focused on responsiveness and frame rate for the end user.

There’s little reason most applications used by most people couldn’t do the same 100fps that almost all video games can achieve. It’s just not a development priority, and being slow and laggy doesn’t negatively affect software revenues that much.

It would be interesting to see what happens if a company like Apple took a hardline approach to application latencies the way they did with iOS system framerates and VR/AR passthrough latency. They have obviously already done this with the stack that supports the Apple Pencil, which benefits all iOS devices to some extent. It’s astounding that a $300 iPad can scroll around a map about an order of magnitude better than a brand new $50k Tesla’s console.

Most development teams just don’t really care about latency and perceived snappiness. Google does because they learned early on that even gains of a dozen milliseconds have direct and measurable effects on their ad revenue.
And they have some common electronic components that regularly fail and they haven’t replaced them with better versions for years.
My first distinct experience of WTF slowness was when Windows needed to verify Start Menu shortcuts to URLs or local network addresses.

One machine having a bad day could wreck the start menu for everyone on the local business LAN.

Nowadays, I still largely blame network. Seems as though everything is either verifying something over the internet before showing you the UI and/or posting telemetry on your action after you click something.
Show HN: NeedleWindow – Flask and Embeddings to find and display a tab (Firefox)
Hi HN

I spend a lot of time trying to find just one tab out of the dozens, just kidding, it is hundreds, of open tabs.

Same thing happens with terminal windows and folders so I'm hoping to get this tool functional for all of those things.

At the moment it works for Firefox (with the accompanying extension) and soon Chrome as well.

It's a complete hack of code (but MIT!) and the security side is a mystery I'm slowly unraveling..

But it does feel really good to use. Eventually this stuff will just be everywhere, I just couldn't wait any longer.
The Tau of Tautology.

It's Taus all the way down!
I started reading "Best Buy is shutting down..." and was about to cheer out loud. Then I read the rest of the headline and was disappointed.
Stress Bragging is a big thing in infosec these days. I generally mute people who start off constantly bragging about how much they enjoy the job, followed immediately by 3 or 4 additional posts on how they can barely manage getting up in the morning because they're so stressed out.

It literally tells me that you love the job, but aren't good at it, and that's why it's so hard. I've been in the biz since the early 90's and I don't remember it being so onerous.

Sometimes letting off steam is good for you. But when half your tweets or toots are about how you're going out of your mind because you can't get anything else done in life, you're totally in the wrong business.

One doesn't always have to be professional, but blathering endlessly about how tough your job is, directly to others doing the same job, means you really shouldn't be there. Choose something easier, like data entry.
I too wonder how ordinary people like us in any other country can improve or solve problems that affect us.
I think it would. No, probably not the highest priority for the society doing it, but something that would continue along regardless. A quick google tells me that over 11,000 dinosaur fossils have been found so far, people still seem interested in finding more. But there are other reasons besides direct interest of the present society, especially at that scale. A few: interest of those having been revived now wanting to revive their waiting friends/family/time-mates, humanitarian reasons (Europe alone has absorbed millions of refugees in the last several years), and, turning a little from pure thought experiment of mummies to currently frozen people, potential contractual reasons. (Though notably Alcor only has a couple hundred frozen corpses/brains, and less than a couple thousand members signed up for the procedure.)

It’s exciting for the people getting paid
> e.g. by introducing taxes for empty properties

So the speculators set up a company, buy the property and list it on AirBnB at several times the market price. Now it's not an empty property, it's a business. Business is slow so they only have to bother with guests during spikes in demend.
A relatively large percentage of the space in a high rise is wasted: https://westnorth.com/2015/04/27/high-rises-land-efficient-b... They also tend to be more expensive and use considerably more resources to build and maintain.

Obviously any form of multi-tenant space is more efficient than single-family housing, but there's a sweet spot somewhere between single-family and high rise that's the most space efficient.
>all advertising is unethical

No, advertising that aims to manipulate you into an unnecessary purchase is unethical. There’s some fuzzy line here where an advertisement like “bob’s hardware: come on down to bob’s for high quality pickaxes” is acceptable and a coca cola ad isn’t. Almost all modern advertising is the latter, and it’s most certainly unethical. I’d happily call it borderline fraudulent; these companies claim through subconscious implication things like “this car will make you happy and everyone will respect you more,” which is a bold faced lie. Basically all modern advertising is unethical; it wouldn’t be the first time something unethical was widespread because it was profitable.

Didn't the FLLF attack Palestinians? [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_for_the_Liberation_of_Le... ]

Did Israel also fire rockets on its north from Lebanon? Did it try to assassinate it's ambassador to the UK?

Do you have other references to the theory that the reason Israel went to war with Lebanon was FLLF's operations that it blamed on Palestinians? Why would it go to war over people killing each other in Lebanon, it doesn't pass the smell test.

Anyways, in this conflict cherry-picking is a big problem. Pro-Palestinians are very good at cherry picking some questionable Israeli action while totally ignoring the rest of the story. You can't understand reality by cherry picking certain things and spinning a theory to accommodate them. That's how conspiracy theorists think. The scientific method is to try and falsify your theory and really test whether it stands the test of the other events, not the ones' your cherry picking. And naturally for every story check multiple sources to try and get a sense of what really happened. If you're ignoring the rocket attacks on Israel, and other PLO attacks on Israel, and the attempt to assassinate the UK ambassador, as factors in your theory, then maybe your theory is wrong.

I wonder if Shopify bought the wrong one on accident.
Or put cursor at open or closing paren of form and do M-q. No highlight needed.
That is great! It seems from the video like you need to know how to code to use it or at least the concepts of API vs front end and so on. Since if it makes a mistake you need intuition on how to fix it. Tools like this really speed things up though. I like that the end result is ejectable (you get code) vs. being locked into some nocode platform.
Knuth was writing in an era when scientific programs tended to be dominated by inner loops. There was an input part, a compute part that did some number-crunching, and an output part. Only performance in the compute part mattered.

Many programs today have no inner loop. Compilers were the first important programs that didn't. Most interactive programs have an outer loop processing events, rather than an inner compute loop.

Note that "AI" programs are much more like the scientific problems of Knuth's era. All the compute is in tight loops wrangling matrices.
Cool, I’m glad it worked for you. I do think those examples are the exceptions to the norm though, and represent a small portion of the ads shoved into our faces.
What talent? Luck? Whatever need Shopify has requested to chat they can develop easily
By designers, rather.
I doubt there's a play. Shopify is just hiring a team of smart developers who have a track record of working well with each other, without needing to go through a long recruiting process.
What is your beef with Best Buy?
It's more than that. People who are unsheltered and multi-billionaires have the same phone, too.

I think it would be too technically difficult. There's just so much complexity to solving that problem, it wouldn't actually be possible/profitable. IMO.
If they could do what tsmc does they would. You can tell they can’t because nobody else in the world does. Tsmc has a de fecto monopoly.
I'm a Zionist. Please don't troll me about being part of some They screaming apartheid, and please don't troll about how you can't find any security council resolutions on China. It cheapens our cause. Shameful.

People are smart enough to see that, and it's clear you think about this enough to know exactly what you're doing by bemoaning the lack of security council censure of China, and it cheapens our cause to have behavior like that affiliated it with it.
> It is very simple. Theft is when you take something from someone without voluntary agreement. renters and landlords enter voluntary agreement. If a landlord has a job or not seems irrelevant. They didn't steal anything from anyone. Everything they have, they obtained through mutually consensual exchange.

Wrong. The vast majority of people don't voluntarily agree to rent, they are coerced. "Pay rent or be homeless" is pretty powerful coercion.

> How do you think landlordism could be considered theft? Is it just because people need/want shelter that they have?

Stop this "need/want" nonsense. I think we can agree that homes are firmly a human need. People being mad that landlords are driving up housing prices for personal gain isn't just whining that people aren't getting what they want. People need homes.

It's theft because people who already have a lot of money, are buying up things that people need, so they can hold them for ransom. Owning things so that others can't own them isn't a benefit to society, and landlords do not provide services (before you trot out the maintenance argument--compare the prices of a handyman to rent). They're just leaches.

> Is a farmer who grows food a thief because people need food to live?

A farmer grows food, like a builder builds houses.

The landlord equivalent for food would be if someone decided to buy up all the world's food and jack up the price, letting people starve to death despite an excess of food rather than compromising their profit model. And that would be murder, not theft.

> Is a doctor a thief because you die without surgery?

Surgery, unlike a food or house, is a service, not a product.

Unlike a landlord, doctors performing surgery is actually doing work. And while the prices of medical care are high in the US to the point that people are dying rather than seeking preventive care, that's largely a function of rent-seeking healthcare companies, not doctors. And that's pretty equivalent to murder, too.

Hospitals are in fact required to provide surgery if failure to do so would result in the death of the patient.

> Is a mechanic a thief because your car needs repair?

Is a car a human need? In some places, maybe, but that's a problem of a society that doesn't provide other forms of transport.

Really, though, I'm less interested in defining landlordism=theft. We shouldn't need to prove it fits your arbitrary definition of theft to say it's wrong: if you don't get that causing homelessness for personal gain is wrong, your moral compass is pretty fundamentally broken.

Show HN: Go-fuzz-all – Fuzz Go functions with non-basic type arguments
You may have tried to fuzz a function that takes a struct as a parameter. The direct way of doing this does not work, because the Go fuzzing framework is limited to basic types like int, float64, bool.
go-fuzz-all allows you to fuzz functions with non-basic type arguments.
>Neurotypical people actually get a kind of high from amphetamines
This is intellectual dishonesty to the point of nausea.
Amphetamine is very well understood as far as drugs go and affects those with and without ADHD in the same way. Neurotypicals also experience increased focus at therapeutic doses, just ask anyone who's taken it as a study aid, and ADHD-sufferers also experience a high from the flood of dopamine.
The most damning evidence for me is the absolutely obsessive relationship many ADHD patients have with their medication. It's immediately obvious and unlike any I know of.

Society (American society in particular) has just decided that the medical benefits of amphetamine outweigh the risks for people with ADHD vice versa for those without.
I think doing what you are doing makes a difference. Citizenship journalism, blogging, raising awareness, writing letters to the editor of a newspaper, going to or organising a demonstration - all these things make a difference - as long as you keep doing them and get others involved.

Of course, it may not gratify your intellectual curiosity specifically, but no post is interesting to everybody. The goal is more to have a front page with a good probability distribution of interestingness over a wide range of smart readers. If you don't like this post, there are 29 others on the front page, and if you run out of interesting stories there, I recommend the 'past' link in the top bar, which will show you the front pages of previous 24 hour periods, going all the way back.

I’ve done a 4K UHD video editor which fits on a floppy disk (1.4Mb), with 30 OpenGL effects, 10 languages, audio pluggins, and is insanely responsive (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/smallstepforman/Medo/main/...), and programmed it in 2 years working 4-8 hours a week.

But it doesnt have a spell checker for 30 languages, it doesnt have a publish to social media button, it doesnt have a video tutorial, it doesnt have a collaberative network share mode, etc.

These features add bloat and latency. That is the root cause of software slowness today. Apps from 20 years ago are still usable today, and are blazingly fast.
HN is an integral part of my life. Not even a day has gone by in years when I haven't at least checked out the front page of HN. HN has had its ups and down, with me sometimes getting disillusioned. But the hivemind course corrects and returns to its roots. Proud to be a part of this self assembled community.

Be kind.
Adding to the foray. HN is one of the few sites actually pleasant to use by edbrowse, a line-oriented browser built and used by blind developers.

Also, you guys in the comments are consistently great. Not only do I learn a ton from you and am delighted to have an appreciative ear for my own arcana, but it's also reassuring to see a reflection of my own quirks and neuroticies lightly peppered throughout as well. You guys remind me that we're all in this crazy world together, trying our best with whatever tools we got.
> Unfortunately, I don’t know how to convince others, especially those above me, that if I do less of the features they want, the product will be better, despite trying.

I think it boils down to the fact that this is nowhere near being an absolute irreducible truth. Sometimes if you don't do the features I want, the product will suck and I'm getting another product from someone who has something other than a ruthless asceticism as their only core value.

Since kernel 3.3 or so, RAPL is also exposed through `/sys/devices/virtual/powercap/intel-rapl/*/energy_uj` in micro-joules (if not, `modprobe intel_rapl`). So if you want to do a quick power measurement, it can be done using just POSIX sh (root required):

# in milli-watt (1000 = 1W) because shell arithmetic doesn't do floating point
while true; do
LAST_MJ=$MJ
MJ=$(cat /sys/devices/virtual/powercap/intel-rapl/intel-rapl:0/energy_uj)
echo $(((MJ - LAST_MJ) / 1000))
sleep 1
done

Despite the powercap name being intel-rapl, the powercap interface is also available on AMD machines.

For a more detailed reading on several more metrics about the CPU, I think pcm[1] may be a better tool (it's a successor to the Intel Power Gadget the project was forked from). Though, it only works on Intel CPU.

I'm somewhere on the spectrum, with many of the stereotypical traits (special interests, sensory sensitivity, social difficulties, emotional processing trouble, sensitivity to disruptions, you name it). It makes me good at some things and bad at others. It has, at times, made my life very hard, and it has at times made things that are very difficult for others trivial for me.

But that's not really any different from how people vary from one another in general. It just so happens that the way in which I vary is shared with many others and has a name.

I'd say the same about ADHD. I don't know if I have ADHD, specifically, but I certainly have some form of related executive dysfunction. It makes it very hard to focus on something tedious (I spent a solid hour trying to type up a few paragraphs of interview feedback for someone earlier while getting constantly pulled off onto other things). But it also means I temperamentally have to constantly be learning and growing because I'll wither and die if I don't. That has made some things (like doing repetitive daily tasks) hard, but it makes other things (like the fact that as a founder I have to do about seven different jobs at a time) fun and easy when they would crush many people.

I agree with you that we don't need to pretend that things that hurt us don't. The difficulties matter, in part because acknowledging and understanding them is a part of finding our own personal brands of excellence. But I also don't think we need to treat the ways in which we're different as a curse, either. It's just how we are, and we have to figure out the best way to live within those constraints, the same as anyone else. Sometimes that means tolerating the things that we can't change, sometimes that means routing around them, sometimes that means figuring out ways to make them work in our favor.

I can't speak for everyone, but I can say that my life has gone far better starting from the premise of "this is the way I am and I have to work with that while recognizing the realities of interacting with a world that operates on different rules from mine" than it has from the premise of "I'm broken and I need to fix myself so I'm like others". In that sense, I think that acceptance, and even celebration in the right ways, can be good. It's just a way to say "it's not wrong to be what you are, and you should try to be the best version of that thing, not the best version of someone else".
