That's not true, I have many examples I've seen of people putting themselves second. Of course everyone has these thoughts and actions and needs to reflect and be self aware, but it's not true that everyone is just always out for themselves, in fact that's the type of world view that leads people into the wrong quadrant and it's a bit of a depressing world view. I think you understood exactly what I meant by wrong quadrant, from your reply.

Don't you know anyone that donates money? Or that volunteers their time? Or that doesn't use all their deductions when doing taxes? Haven't you read stories about people who anonymously donate kidneys? There's so many examples - and the only way for your world view to "work" is if all of them only do these things for selfish reasons.

At some point one has to acknowledge and believe in good and cooperation and decide if they mostly want to try and operate in coop mode or in selfish mode, but the more you believe others are likely to choose coop, the more like you are to do the same. So you need to start from the belief that good and coop are things other people will also choose. Your world view prevents this "from the start".

What a weird screed.
It's an interesting question, as we have a spectrum from 'little to no transparency' through to 'full transparency' (which is pretty rare), and in the middle sits the usual approach of 'communications-team-led messaged quasi-transparency'. Difficult to know (without more info) where Shipt would have appeared on this spectrum, but given the issue, they're probably somewhere towards the 'insufficient transparency' end.

What's silly in this case is that (as others have pointed out) the new algorithm seems to have been reasonably equitable, with a genuine redistribution of payments, rather than just a cut overall. Shipt could have avoided this whole situation with a straightforward explanation of the changes, together with a few examples of the cases/jobs in which people would earn more or less.

> I would have been more interested in seeing how they could implement an encapsulated function in the sans-IO style that had to do something like wait on an action or a timer

The "encapsulated function" is the `StunBinding` struct. It represents the functionality of a STUN binding. It isn't a single function you can just call, instead it requires an eventloop.

The point though is, that `StunBinding` could live in a library and you would be able to use it in your application by composing it into your program's state machine (assuming you are also structuring it in a sans-IO style).

The linked `snownet` library does exactly this. Its domain is to combine ICE + WireGuard (without doing IO) which is then used by the `connlib` library that composes ACLs on top of it.

Does that make sense?

EDIT: There is no busy-waiting. Instead, `StunBinding` has a function that exposes, what it is waiting for using `poll_timeout`. How the caller (i.e. eventloop) makes that happen is up to them. The appropriate action will happen once `handle_timeout` gets called with the corresponding `Instant`.

I think that you are using here a different definition of R^2 for example the way you are thinking of R^2 doesn't allow for an interpretation of the constant term used in the linear model for the formula of the R^2 to be true. What you are thinking is R^2 = 1 - mean(the variance in each state)/(total variance), but that is not the definition of R^2 for a linear model.

As the user fskfsk.... says in another comment, here the constant term explains a lot of the variance so that the slope terms contains less information, that is not available using your definition or idea of R^2
Same. I definitely remember the "help" line from it too.

Markdown is useful for editing, but completely irrelevant to reading. So there simply is no demand for such things. It also greatly limits formatting options compared to the editors that authors and publishers already have, so they would be adding restrictions to their own work by pursuing Markdown.

In general, Markdown's use case is for easy editing of basic formatting in simple documents. Perfect for notes and small bits of documentation. Not perfect for many other things.

Blast at munitions plant near East Camden injures 2 people
The abridged summary here elides that 1 is a history of claims of intolerable harm being proved wrong, not that every claim has already been proved wrong. In this frame that too many people kept raising alarms equivalent to "cars with driving assistance will cause a bloodbath" which then come to pass, not that there are no further safety alarmist claims left about what could be coming next as the technology changes.

Keeping it focused on AI every release of a text, image, and voice generator has come with PR, delays, news articles, and discussion about how it's dangerous and we need to hold it back. 3 months after they release politics hasn't collapsed from a 10 fold increase in fake news, discussion boards online are still as (un)usable as they were before, art is still a thing people do, and so on. That doesn't mean there are no valid safety concerns just that the alarmist track record isn't particularly compelling to most while the value of the tools continues to grow.

The line between applications and libraries is fairly blurry, isn't it? In my experience, most applications grow to the point where you have internal libraries or could at least split out one or more crates.

I would go as far as saying that whatever functionality your application provides, there is a core that can be modelled without depending on IO primitives.
This also happens with .DS_store files if the other computer on the network isn’t a Mac. It’s irrelevant.
There's also physical limits though, and structural economic lag in terms of investment. If you look at any CDN costs globally and compare it with the number of intercontinental fiber connections between those places you generally start having a good idea that the two are related. In some places there's also just less qualified talent (due to having less ability to train people in enough universities, or just not having them for as long) and datacenter space built and extra import costs that delay everything.

At some point everything will saturate and probably energy production costs will dominate (largely for cooling), but I think we're still a bit far from that.

Haven't read the book either, but a handful of trillionaires could be that the "upper 10 000" oligarchs of the USA get to be those trillionaires, and everyone else starves to death or simply can't afford to have children and a few decades later dies from old age.

Right now, in order to grow and thrive, economies need educated people to run it, and in order to get people educated you need to give them some level of wealth to have their lower level needs met.

It's a win-win situation. Poor/starving people go to arms more quickly and destabilize economies. Educated people are the engineers, doctors and nurses. But once human labour isn't needed any more, there is no need for those people any more either.

So AI allows you to deal with poor people much better now than in the past: an AI army helps to prevent revolutions and AI engineers, doctors, mechanics, etc, eliminate the need for educated people.

There is the economic effect that consumption drives economic growth, which is a real effect that has powered the industrial revolution and given wealth to some of today's rich people. Of course, a landlord has the incentive for people to live in his house, that's what gives it value. Same goes for a farmer, he wants people to eat his food.

But there is already a certain chunk of the economy which only caters to the super rich, say the yacht construction industry. If this chunk keeps on growing while the 99% get less and less purchasing power, and the rich eventually transition their assets into that industry, they get less and less incentives to keep the bottom 99% fed/around.

I'm not saying this is going to happen, but it's entirely possible to happen. It's also possible that every individual human will be incredibly wealthy compared to today (in many ways, the millions in the middle classes in the west today live better than kings a thousand years ago).

In the end, it will depend on human decisions which kinds of post-AI societies we will be building.
> Python is the right thing to compare to here, because it is easily the most popular way to perform these computations in the modern day. Specifically using numpy.

By that reasoning, wouldn't it make more sense to wrap their C code and maybe even make it operate on numpy's array representation, so it can be called from Python?

lods and stos do load/store + increment of `rsi` or `rdi` respectively. There's also movs to copy between two memory addresses + increment

Usually seen in conjunction with rep, which repeats the above instruction `rcx` times.

mov rcx, 10
mov rdi, dest
mov rax, 0

You can use the w, d or q suffixes to advance by 2, 4 or 8 bytes.

What I was thinking was that the functionality being executed in main could just as easily be in a library function -- that's what I meant by encapsulated function, maybe I should have said "encapsulated functionality".

If the thing I want to do is the incredibly common read or timeout pattern, how do I do that in a sans-IO way? This is why I was quite surprised to see the inclusion of tokio::select -- that's not very sans IO, but is absolutely the domain of a random library function that you might want to expose.

It's a bit jarring to introduce the concept as not requiring choices like async vs not, then immediately require the use of async in the event loop (required to drive the state machine to completion).

Or is the point that the event loop should be async? That's a reasonable expectation for event loops that are I/O bound -- it's the whole point of a event loop/reactor pattern. Maybe I'm missing some example where you show an event loop that is not async, to show that you can drive this no matter whether you want or don't want async?

So if I to try to condense & rephrase:

If I want to write a function that listens or times out in sans-IO style, should I use tokio::select? If so, where is the async runtime coming from, and how will the caller of the function be able to avoid caring?

There are certainly people like that, but there are also exceptionally smart people that just absolutely suck at selling themselves, and you might unknowingly decided the same way in case of both.

It’s very hard to fairly evaluate someone. E.g. I had interviews where I 100% know more than one of my interviewers on the specific topic (not bragging, my knowledge is ain’t a high bar), and that gap in this unusual direction made the process very awkward and strange.

Even convoluted ones, like commissions for sales, or shared tips, are covered by law. I do know this, as I know a number of salespeople and servers.

I suspect that the government needs to know what to tax, and obfuscated pay, means obfuscated taxes.

Ask HN: What's the benchmark for well cost-optimized AWS S3 bucket?
Hello,

Recently, I was asked to add "Average cost per 1GB" KPI for S3 buckets in my cost optimization app (I will not advertise it here).

My honest question is, what's a good price per 1GB of S3 storage?

Maximum is 2.7 cents per 1GB (depending on the region). I've got one bucket with SI enabled which has 0.5 cents per GB.

What are your experiences in that area?

Hard to say.. For me DVCS is more advanced version of DVFS. DVCS can do branching and merging, provides more metadata for revisions etc.. DVFS just do pretty much one thing, store binary blobs.

The funny part is actually that its not supposed to create DS_store everywhere:

> There is also an unfortunate bug that is not fixed to this day that result in an excessive creation of .DS_Store file. Those files should only be created if the user actually makes adjustments to the view settings or set a manual location for icons in a folder. That’s unfortunately not what happens and visiting a folder pretty much guarantees that a .DS_Store file will get created

I get the sense that if you are annoyed by it, you aren't the target audience of Mac OS, the target audience are technologically illiterate people for who it really doesn't matter (they barely know what folders are anyway), so to Apple there is no reason to ever invest any effort to fix it.
