This is maybe true in the abstract but is entirely different from the on the ground reality in Portugal. It’s a lot more complicated in reality but generally speaking citizens have less advantages and opportunities than you might expect in key areas when all is said and done.

Strange how we went from "The web is absolutely more than good enough for the vast majority of apps" to "majority of mobile gaming apps."

> I've seen you repeat this phrase over and over again like a mantra on HN, but without examples

I mean, almost every single web "app" out there suffers from this. The DOM isn't built for highly dynamic interactive applications. It's a system to deliver static text and images.

> What are some examples of popular apps that you think require the full brunt of a modern chip?

Now you're pretending I said something I didn't.

However, it's funny how the amazing fast web sites that are more than enough for the majority of apps struggle with even the most basic tasks even on maxed out machines. I mean, Slack's app needs up to 20% of CPU even on an M* Mac (last I tried it was M1 Max IIRC) to render a few animated emojis.

It's a single example, but it's quite representative of the state of the Web.

This is terrible for long-term ecological health. The soil needs time to recover, and if it's constantly farmed, the soil just gets more and more depleted. A very early example of well-intentioned regulations ending up causing more harm than good (and indeed, much of what used to be fertile farmland in that part of the world is now desert from over-farming).
Last time I looked into something like this for GrapheneOS it wasn't possible to provide a custom location service.

It would be awesome to have this on GrapheneOS - so I'm very happy if someone knows a way to do this without using microG (I use the sandboxed GMS)
Well, but what if you're working with a 16-bit microcontroller? Apparently, there were quite some heated discussions about that which is why, while size_t was required to be at least 16 bits, ptrdiff_t was required to be at least 17 bits, in C99... and then it was reverted back to 16 bits in C23. See e.g. [0]

This trade-off is actually making me sad. One can either have all the sizes and offsets fit into (unsigned/signed) integers, or one can have objects spanning more than half of the memory space. I think for my language I'd pick "all sizes/offsets are signed, and so yeah, you can't span all of the memory with a single char array".

It's even worse. Many subreddits were taken over by bad actors. When they saw a popular community, they found at what times the mods were inactive (e.g. late night or weekends) and posted evil stuff. Then went to cry to the admins about the evil stuff staying up for hours and got their friends to become mods of the community. In the case of reddit, many people suspect the admins and 3 letter agencies were in the know, or at least played along to their advantage.

And if you self-host to avoid the risk of handing over your community to those sites under control, you get flooded with DDoS and hacking attacks (including state-sponsored actors). Sad times.
Fractals and Dirac delta functions both have somewhat pathological properties at times, and both pop up as approximations of real systems in physics.

I would personally not consider it fundamental either though, more of a “let’s cross that bridge when we get to it” problem.
Our runners autoscale, and you can choose whatever instance type you want. It doesn’t seem like a very hard problem to solve.
> …an ordering that has likely never existed before. In other words, it’s unlikely you’ll ever shuffle two decks the same.

This is an understatement. In fact it is virtually certain that no two shuffled decks of 52 cards have ever been in the same order, across all history. That’s how big 52! is. In fact, to get a 50% chance of any two shuffles matching, you’d need to shuffle a billion decks of cards every second for 4x10e17 years.
Ambitious, but I like the idea. I feel like it would be too much to absorb for most juniors, but for your average senior like me with gaps, it may prove useful.
The more east you go from Germany, the more important potatoes are to general population. Especially in the past, but even now they are more popular as side dish compared to ie rice or pasta, maybe due to bigger 'filling the stomach' effect that also lasts longer.
Here’s my (sometimes heavy-handed) restatement. The thesis is marked by asterisks.

The author’s expression tends toward the literary and thus reduces clarity by requiring more work from the reader — a point which I find ironic in light of the message conveyed.

I'm not interested in engaging with you further on this topic after you devolved into ad hominems against me in the other thread. I'm here to argue in good faith. Have a good day.
At large scale, when your company developed a significant tech debt (~1mln lines of code), you will especially value people who understand what is going on in all that code. I am afraid, that with smaller teams "renewing teams" will be too quick for new joiners to grasp what is going on. I mean, everyone from "old" team will leave before newcomers are ready to own the product.

It seems like an interesting mechanism, that the brain is somehow signalling by modifying CSF which in turn then then activates nerves.

The question I have is mechanistically, how is the brain actually doing that. If CSF sits on the other side of the blood-brain barrier, it doesn't contact brain cells. So you'd have to introduce some other layer of signalling that does communicate between them.
I just started noticing this and I am in the exact same spot, no allergies, lots of migraines.

Thank you for posting this 'cause I though I was making things up by noticing things when all tests were negative.

edit:
though it seems to me that coffe(+iburprofen when things are bad) helps.

I started connecting it to food when I noticed I started getting pain on my lower back that slowly creeps up on the course of half a day or so and becomes a migraine. When it starts stopping and I massage my neck down to half my back I get tons of relief when I press on the right nerve/muscle/whatever.

I'd recommend researching where such math is applied in the industry and at least show them where it's used. I have rarely understood why I should learn something. While having to research it again years later.

Matrix multiplications are for example used in game engines or in image processing. One example of rather complex algorithm is potential based interception algorithms for moving objects (Ai for Game Developers - O'Reilly).

However, I find it pretty important to have an uninterrupted flow during my practices. In loopingtube.com you have a list of all the clips on the side, you can seamlessly move between them with hotkeys. You don't have the overhead of changing between a list of links you manually saved.
Also, I implemented a pause between loops of customizable length, where you have time to repeat.
I've read that also in medieval Finland crimes that were punishable by death rarely resulted in actual execution. Fines and other less harsh punishments were preferred, probably because that way the criminal could still remain a contributing member of the community. Makes sense considering how small the communities were back then in these parts of the world.

Deno added Node compatibility later on. So while Deno itself (JS which is V8 anyway and the native Deno APIs like http) is probably stable (it is used as serverless runtime, e.g. from Supabase, of course Deno itself and Netlify IIRC), the Node compatibility is the problem here. Yeah, this is frustrating. Now we have Bun which tries to be a drop in replacement for Node. It you need NPM modules, you should probably just use Node. Or some other language.
"This idea of "curing cancer" as if cancer was a monolithic disease really needs to die."

I respectfully disagree. Maybe our problem is that of attitude, which you also exhibit when saying "with a single, or even handful of drugs". Drugs as such may be a dead end.

Once upon a time, we decided to study cancer from a biochemical and genetic point of view and look for drugs, which may actually be suboptimal. To give an analogy, what if you tried to debug a faulty program using a beeper instead of a debugger with screen. It would be a nasty work and it would take long. This is not an intrinsic problem of software ("fundamental undebuggability of 10 thousand errors"), it is "just" a wrong approach to debugging.

We are not the only mammals, we can look around nature and learn from it. What do we see when we study cancer in other species? Mammalian species that are highly resistant to cancer (whales, bats, naked mole rats etc.) seem not to rely on drugs or their biochemical equivalents, but rather kill cancerous cells biologically, with help of their immune systems.

Notably, if a species is highly resistant to cancer, it tends to be highly resistant to all sorts of cancer at once, or, at the very least, to many sorts of cancer at once, which indicates that a common suppressive mechanism for cancer ("cure" or "preventive cure") is well within the realm of possibility and that for all their biochemical diversity, cancer cells can be universally recognized and whacked in an efficient way.

The same actually holds about young people. Our own species is highly resistant to almost all cancers at once when young, and incidence of most cancers tends to grow with age along a very similar curve, which, again, indicates some commonalities under that extreme biochemical diversity.

Most of the progress in fight against cancer in the 21st century comes from biological approaches, not from better chemicals. The chemical approach may be fundamentally flawed.

Yeah, a "cure" in form of a chemical drug is likely impossible. But a "cure" in a form of a genetic treatment etc. may well be possible.

Anyone down for adding some whale genome to theirs? :)
Intercoin.org isn’t the point of my comment, it isn’t even linked in there. Why would you zero in on it? It is your comment that appears stilted and following the same forced pattern of “crypto was mentioned, therefore … must… assume … grift … is the only reason for saying anything … and therefore must write the most negative adhominem possible to fulfill my duty of making sure decentralized technology has negative sentiment expressed”

I was sharing my experience with people in the decentralized space. After all the original post was by the founder of a very ambitious and helpful decentralized project, talking about how their DHT works. I am impressed by such founders and interviewed them. So I gave a bit more context as to what various projects use and linked to the interviews. All these people contributed to the decentralized routing schemes and consensus algorithms.
My favorite annoying quote from a book is once you have migraines figured out, they change. I had one solution that worked, it stopped, switched, rinse and repeat.

I get lightning shocks in my head at times, it’s not great. Long list of tried and failed medications. Almost everything on the list 0. Seems different for everyone. X drug works for some then causes memory loss for others.

If you have over 15 migraines per month, you can get Botox every 3 months. It lasts 1-3 months for me with an average of 2. Lasts meaning 1-3 per week. Not lasts means near daily migraines. $2-3k without insurance and it’s about 40 painful shots. Supposedly 2/3 people refuse Botox due to side affects (droopy eye 1/50 chance) or injection pain. Migraines are worse than 40 shots.

The new cgrp migraine prevention versions are available and highly advertised. You need to fail 2-3 classes of drugs to get approval depending on insurance and the syringes are currently hard to get but they last one month with a self subcutaneous injection.

Herbs: haven’t had much luck with anything except menthol variants and smelling/rubbing it on temples which is backed by a few papers.

The people I talk to usually say they used to get migraines then got divorced and they went away. Changed jobs to be less stressful led to less migraines.

Getting sick, weather changes, being overheated, pressure changes barometric/altitude, and not sleeping well causes more migraines. Food triggers led me nowhere.

What are the numbers after the languages supposed to be? Hours? Minutes? 10 hours for blinking an LED seems far too long, while 2500 minutes for an OS seems far too short.

Good on them but how does this work? If my neighbour scans my WiFi network and uploads it to BeaconDB I didn’t exactly opt-in, did I? The privacy policy mentions you can add ‘_optout’ to the WiFi name, so it’s more opt-out instead of opt-in?

I understand you to be reading this as progressive, whereas I see it as the opposite: if you rent land but do not have the money to pay (for whatever reason) the rent still has to be paid.
You can register and save the clips and videos in your account. It's pretty inconvenient to recreate the loops for every practice.
Also, another feature I was missing is the customizable pause between loops to have time to repeat. Of course, you can do this by pressing replay on the keyboard, but if you are practicing an instrument you don't want your hands busy in anything else than the instrument

Reading your comment I also realized that something like this would also be quite useful in the eventuality of a grand war in Eastern Europe (let’s say) and of the sudden necessity that would arise at that point of sending big and heavy stuff (ordnance, tanks etc) by train from one part of the continent to the other. Even though I do hope that the European militaries already have this type of policies in place (and hopefully handling connections between several countries’ rail-systems).

If you don't need NPM modules, Deno is pretty nice. There's a Deno specific ecosystem (e.g. DB drivers) that is working fine, but of course you're limited compared to the huge NPM ecosystem.
seeing some genocidal tendencies in the current world, I sometimes think that maybe, just maybe ancient laws were not dictating the minimal possible punishment, but actually limited it. Like "Kill only you, not all your family". or "Take an eye for an eye, but just an eye, and you'll live"

There is probably cases of essentially fraud where it is litigated today too. Like you rent something and promise share of revenue, but then do not actual do anything.

But in standard arrangement where you promise to work fields and promise to give part of harvest to land owner it is obvious that you should not be excused of not actually doing that.

I've been following these efforts closely. For these projects, crewed endurance space efforts, I strongly believe the most difficult component is the human. It's really difficult to be isolated in a high stress environment. And we don't adequately simulate or study what that might truly be like. I know that this was about nutrition but I just don't think nutrition is going to be the hard part of these missions.

I say this with experience. Living and working doing science in the Arctic and on ships is grueling. It's grueling, and not anywhere near as difficult or unpredictable as being in space. The things that happen in that pressure cooker are really hard to explain to people who haven't lived it.

It's not ethical or easy to do the kinds of simulations that would actually be useful. How do you simulate "your colleague is gravely wounded and on life support. now you have to work for 90 hours straight to fix whatever mamed them". Oh, also, you have 9 months of mission left with one less crew.

It was mediocre at best but "for all man kind" highlights just how weird things might get in these places. The only analogous efforts I can imagine are the adventures of sea-fairing people of centuries past. Maybe we should invent time travel and do some sociological studies.

An ability to operate reasonably effectively under the constraints of bounded rationality is an ingredient of competence.

You seem to define managerial competence as making the right decisions, and thus file bad decisions under incompetence. I believe this definition to be intuitive but useless for practical purposes. Instead, I define managerial competence as an ability to set and achieve goals, and claim that a few undesirable conditions commonly observed in the workplace are a natural consequence of managerial competence according to this fairly uncontroversial definition.

The expectation should be that, as you switch more and more, so that the cost of a 30 minute pause gets higher and higher, the situation would improve, and a more modern system might have been expected to boast that it never had a break lasting more than, say, 30s outside of a natural disaster.
