The burden of proof is on the accuser so you never need to worry about proving a negative.

Unless there are patents involved, and we’re just talking about possible copyright infringement, then you’re free to borrow the ideas just not the expressions. Which in practice means if you’re not blatantly copying then the proof of Structure, Similarity and Organization is prohibitively expense for the plaintiff.
You're leaving out the big catch though, which is that if you don't have experience in these industries, the software you make will probably be terrible. The winning move is if you are a plumber that can learn software engineering, not the other way around.
They have a computation to do, and they want to do it using a particular instruction. That's the only reason they are fiddling with the compiler. You would have to do so too, if you had decided to solve a problem at hand using a similar method.

The author is talking about a way to get a particular (version of) C/C++ compiler to emit the desired instruction. So I'd call this clang-18.1.0-specific but not C/C++-specific since this has nothing to do with the language.

Also such solutions are not portable nor stable since optimization behavior does change between compiler versions. As far as I can tell, they also would have to implement a compiler-level unit test that ensures that the desired machine code is emitted as toolchain versions change.

Yea, that works.

But WHAT you eat is also significant for long term weight loss. Anyone can eat 1000cal deficit of only kale and unseasoned chicken breast. But nobody can do it for 40 years, which is needed for a lifestyle change.

And now we’re back to the psychology of things, the food needs to be balanced and tasty. Not just 100% healthy.

Also if two people eat the exact same amount of the exact same food, they get different amounts of calories from it. The body isn’t a 100% efficient engine, there are losses.
Which visual differences are occluded depending on the design and CAD software parameters?

If [FreeCAD] files are text-diffable, is there a way to topologically sort (with secondary insertion order) before git committing with e.g. precommit?

python has a sort_keys parameter for serialization, in order to alphabetically sort sibling nodes in nested datastructures; which makes it easier to diff json documents that have different key orderings but otherwise equal content.

I'm not commenting on OP or their family business, but a multiple of 2x or 3x could be more than fair for a hands-on small business.

Consider that there are large public companies with established management systems that you can buy and hold, completely hands-off, for multiples of 5x - 10x. GM is trading at 5x, lots of banks are in that range, huge equipment rentals, mines, etc.
Same here. The scene where the witness describes the criminal's face in detail while the sketch artist can render a perfect drawing - I assumed that was pure Hollywood fantasy. Then I met people who could effortlessly recall/draw to that level and realized that wow it's real, but not for me.
This post supports your case way less than you think. I've sent it to several EE friends and none have expressed your discontent. The general consensus has been "amazing what AI can do nowadays", and I agree. This would have been complete science-fiction just a couple of years ago.

By the end you realize the author 1) researched the industry, 2) improved the product mix 3) grew the highest-margin product and 4) sold to a buyer with values that protected his workers and his dad's legacy.

Someone with that quality/ability is really hard to find, even at really big companies.

An important concept , and one that also has implications for mental health treatment. Eg, many talk therapies operate under the assumption that 'saying the wrong words in your head' is a factor maintaining the problem, and replacing these with better ones will result in improvement.

But since words are not thoughts, and further they are not mental actions (such as relaxing), saying different words in your head is only useful if they help put you in a frame of mind where you can access, or discover, the right thoughts or 'mental actions'.

I conjecture that within the diversity of human minds, there are some for whom language closely bound to thoughts and mental actions, and others less so, and that talk therapy is more useful for the former than the latter. If this is true, then it is also likely to be the case that most talk therapists are of the former persuasion, since they are not likely to espouse a practice which has no effect on themselves.

You go first
When the website loaded, my first action was to zoom out, because the author chose a humongous font size. Somehow, this set off a chain reaction of font size changes that took a few seconds to resolve; I don't know what goes on, but zooming out lowered the size of the body text, then after a noticeable lag the size of the header, which then increased again (?) and then the font size of the body increased again (???). I have trouble believing that a website with this kind of behavior would contain a useful "CSS Tip".
You are saying that text on a (finite) page is not recursive (because recursion is a computation, not the output of that computation). But we are interested in the computations that the language faculty performs not the output.
generics were introduced in 2004, this code is from 2001. As for the build system, I find it refreshing that you only need javac and nothing else
> So a simple conclusion is that language gives rise to what we call thought.

Simple and wrong. Remember that thought is highly influenced by habit. If you habitually think in language, it might just possibly take more than thirty seconds of trying before you can conclude it's impossible.

Unless you're defining "thought" to be "internal mental processes that take the form of language", in which case have fun at tautology club.
It's kind of insane that the Amiga didn't do better, given it had much better graphics and sound than the PC at the time. It effectively had some simple accelerated 2D graphics. It feels like a wasted opportunity.

Interesting idea, although if true then time travelling even a second earlier/later would likely put you several hundred km in the sky (or the ground). I guess any potential time travelling device would have a reference point located in itself, therefore prohibiting this effect.
HybridNeRF: Efficient Neural Rendering
Show HN: Mapzy: Free, self-hosted store finder
Hi HN,

Mapzy is a free and self-hostable store finder without any telemetry. It's licensed under AGPL v3. Our idea was to offer a very simple store locator that has a basic set of features and is suitable for use cases where you don't have thousands of locations.

We don't make any money with Mapzy and probably never will. It's just a fun side project for us to learn and try out stuff, while providing a useful app for people who need it. In the beginning, we offered a hosted version that was paid, but quickly abonened it after realizing we don't have the time or will to market it.

Our goal was to make it very simple to self-host. Mapzy is built with Ruby on Rails and comes with Docker and Docker Compose configs included. Plus, we host the Docker image on Docker Hub so that you can basically get started with one docker-compose command. We use Mapbox as the map provider.

Here's a screencast I recorded that gives you a good first impression: https://share.cleanshot.com/7S1McgFm

Here's a real world example where Mapzy is embedded in a website: https://jungkraut.ch/en/pages/stores

Check out the Readme on GitHub for more screenshots, info and documentation.

We're thinking of simplifying the hosting setup even more - maybe drop Postgres and use SQLite instead, and get rid of the Solid Queue process.

Any feedback, thoughts and questions are welcome!

> Of 65 (surveyed) researchers working on 52 different species, 77% had observed same-sex sexual behaviour, such as mounting or genital stimulation, but only 48% had collected data and just 19% had published their findings, according to the study in PLOS One.

> Respondents said they were not influenced by sociopolitical concerns, but many remarked that journals appeared biased against publishing anecdotal reports compared with systematic studies.

It would be nice if The Guardian could at least acknowledge the cost/benefit trade-offs for any animal-behavior scientist (overworked, probably untenured, and always looking for more research funding) who wants to "do the right thing" in a world containing millions of pitchforks-and-torches human ideologues, for whom "homosexual" is a hot button.
Maybe the police could have a list and a posteriori don't investigate security police employees or politicians if they spread child sexual abuse material?

The Dad probably expected to live longer and run the business until then. Sounds like it was a big part of his identity.

Besides, most closely-held businesses don't have succession plans anyway.
Being who you are, while becoming better
I think that prioritizing fixing bugs, especially security related bugs, over new features makes sense for most software projects. The problem comes from defining bugs. Is a bit of unexpected behavior a bug if it doesn't impact users? The article defines bugs as unmet product requirements but if that's the case I don't think the difference between a bug-fix and a new-feature is that clear because new features also help meet product requirements. Perhaps what they mean is that a bug is any regression from what they currently believe the system to be doing.

I do think a lot of this has to do with the size of the project. In smaller projects with fewer requirements, it's easier to define what is considered "working", but as projects grow that becomes harder and harder, partly because meeting all of the requirements becomes harder but also because the requirements interact with each other in unexpected ways making it harder to even figure out what even is required. And of course the volume of bugs increases, eventually making it impossible to completely stay on top of them even if you give up on new features altogether. A bug-tracker becomes necessary eventually.
As well as inter-species contacts and necrophilia...

My favorite, however, is animals' use of tools for sexual gratification. I've personally witnessed a horse teaching her colt how to use a fence gate for a rub; it was not a simple trick either.

The "animal cognition" people don't wanna hear about it.
> But I can't use the features available in the OS, for some reason

Well, the reason is that they’re still figuring out what those features are and how they should work, and how to keep them reliable and secure. You’ll get your turn, eventually.
I think he meant "inheriting a company in a sector you know nothing about".
> lending out more copies than they bought

Legality aside, why is this acceptable for banks but not books?

Banks can create money out of nothing to enrich themselves, but libraries can't lend out more books than they have to enrich society?

Contemporary copyright law is pernicious and IMO if not drastically reformed soon, will be made moot and obsolete by genAI.
I would rather using rem for line height instead. It is easier to maintain vertical rhythm.

Indeed! I love reading Benjamin Franklin for exaclty that. If you haven't read it, Walter Isaacson's biography on Franklin is absolutely fascinating. Brilliant, hilarious, driven, and wildly accomplished. The dude was (IMHO) one of the most interesting humans to have ever lived. Highly recommend.

But in this case, -ffast-math actually results in slower math, so the flag is badly named. Naming things is important (and hard). The naive expectation of a flag named -ffast-math is that the math should never be slower, sometimes be faster, and potentially less accurate and/or error prone. The fact that it can also be sometimes slower means the flag really should be named -fdifferent-math or (uncharitably) -funreliable-math.
Yeah this is happening pretty strongly in specific fields. Terence Tao is on Mathstodon. There's newsie.social for journalists, types.pl for PL researchers. This is similar to how twitter started and apparently how it's also going to die, all of the high-signal users who produce the content leaving for another space, leaving behind nonsense.
It is really fun to watch it as you zoom though!

But yeah, that is the worst reaction I've seen from a page when zooming.

OpenAI's GPT-5 Pushed Back to Late 2025, but Promises PhD-Level Abilities
The problem here isn't that we need to find a way to compensate authors for their work, it's that people can't survive without compensation, so writing for the sake of writing, without compensation, often isn't viable.

If we had some form of universal income, or other form of distribution of goods such that people didn't need to labor for a living (at least not with the current US norm of 40-50 hours a week), then it would be much more practical to say that all books are free for mass consumption. Then authors can write not for compensation, but for the pleasure of writing and knowing their works will be appreciated. And writers with a famous profile, who want the spoils of compensation, can be sponsored/patronized, like artists in the Renaissance.
I know exactly what the author meant by that. He meant losing a parent at a young age. It doesn't happen to most people.
> How is it not visual?

(not the person you're responding to) It's not an image. It's a concept. I don't know how to explain the difference because I also only know it from the explanations of my partner. For example, she says that if she imagines a house it looks like a schematic drawing of a house (almost like if a child would draw a house), not like a realistic photograph of a house.
This reminds me of an issue that I ran into with rust [0] when I was trying to optimize some machine learning code. Rust's über-strict type-safe math operations have you use matching types to get the euclidean non-negative remainder of x mod y. When you have a float-point x value but an integral y value, the operation can be performed much more cheaply than when y is also a floating point value.

The problem is that you end up promoting y from an integer to an f64 and get a much slower operation. I ended up writing my own `rem_i64(self: &f64, divisor: i64) -> f64` routine that was some ~35x faster (a huge win when crunching massive arrays), but as there are range limitations (since f64::MAX > i64::MAX) you can't naively replace all call sites based on the type signatures. However, with some support from the compiler it would be completely doable anytime the compiler is able to infer an upper/lower bound on the f64 dividend, when the result of the operation is coerced to an integer afterwards, or when the dividend is a constant value that doesn't exceed that range.

So now I copy that function around from ML project to ML project, because what else can I do?

(A “workaround” was to use a slower-but-still-faster `rem_i128(self: &f64, divisor: i128) -> f64` to raise the functional limits of the operation, but you're never going to match the range of a 64-bit floating point value until you use 512-bit integral math!)

The circular reference is because em and ex are relative to the font size of the surrounding context, and you need to pick a physical (or derivable-from-physical) unit for the root context. em and ex always refer to the M and x height because that's how fonts work in the old "lead type" world.

p<0.05 is a ridiculous high bar for speculative research, and a ridiculous low bar for practical research.

If I didn't know its rationale, it does look a lot of what a mixed committee would settle on trying to appease everyone. But yeah, it's not a good static value.
I feel that. With about that same frequency, I encounter a vehicle or a driver or driving that's just dreadful. But, I don't report it or even ding the driver because I feel like that's a hard job that I don't wanna do, and I feel bad. I dunno, maybe I should.
So, I decided to try this for a real-world project and compare the results. This is for a full production build with no cache, taking the best of three runs each.

Vite:

2166 modules transformed.
built in 28.21s

Farm:

[ Farm ] Build completed in 13350ms FULL EXTREME! Resources emitted to ./dist.
[ Farm ] Public directory resources copied successfully.

So that is 28.21s vs. 13.35s, or a 53% decrease in build times. This is certainly neat, but I'm not sure whether it is worth the dependency on a new player.
For me the framework thing made a lot more sense prior to ~2020.

With browser standards mostly converged, you don't need things that normalize and shim the DOM for you anymore. Firefox on desktop, Safari on iOS, doesn't really matter. It will mostly just work these days. You still need to be aware of device-specific capabilities, quirks with cookies & local storage, et. al., but this stuff is worth handling directly. Waiting on a 3rd party to get an iOS update bug resolved each year is not always great for business. Calling getUserMedia() is genuinely not a big deal if you can be bothered to read documentation for 10 minutes.

The other argument I see for using web frameworks is that it helps to organize the nature of work into some kind of popular pattern which then creates a common target for talent management. If you handed me a stack of resumes this morning and made me hire a developer, I would strongly prefer ones that imply vanilla/legacy web competency over those that enumerate 10+ popular JS frameworks. I am not looking for a modularized cog in a machine that I can arbitrarily replace. I want someone who can own the entire vertical and who understands why I would want that.

The interests of the front-end/back-end separation police are why server-side rendering seems to constantly get slandered. I've been excoriated by this new wave of developers on more than one occasion for suggesting that it is possible for one human to simultaneously understand HTML/CSS/JS, SQL and a single backend programming language. The most insane thing to me is that you could also just use javascript on the server to produce SSR content, but I've never once seen that not turn into a client-side rendering circus.
