> MIT: Raising State Minimum Wages, Lowering Community College Enrollment

The "MIT:" in the title is misleading. This is a published paper in a journal that has little to do with MIT. Neither the three authors of the paper nor most editors of the journal[1] are affiliated with it.

I've been thinking similar thoughts recently since I've been exploring metaprogramming in Scala and how it can be extended to beyond the simplistic hygenic model it currently supports.

What I recently realized is that while compilers in the standard perspective process a language into an AST, do some transformations, and then output some kind of executable, from another perspective they are really no different than interpreters for a DSL.

There tends to be this big divide between what we call a compiler and what we call an interpreter. And we classify languages as being either interpreted or compiled.

But what I realized, as I'm sure many others have before me, is that that distinction is very thin.

What I mean is this: from a certain perspective a compiler is really just an interpreter for the meta language that encodes and hosts the compiled language. The meta-language directs the compiler, generally via statements, to synthesize blocks of code, create classes with particular shapes, and eventually write out certain files. These meta-languages don't support functions, or control flow, or variables, in fact they are entirely declarative languages. And yet they are the same as the normal language being compiled.

To a certain degree I think the biphasic model captures this distinction well. Our execution/compilation models for languages don't tend to capture and differentiate interpreter+script from os+compiled-binary very well. Or where they do they tend to make metaprogramming very difficult. I think finding a way to unify those notions will help languages if and when they add support for metaprogramming.
Microsoft has the cash on hand to buy a controlling stake in Disney. Disney is about 5-6% of Microsoft considering market cap. We’d need an Apple v Microsoft battle that’s important enough for boards to demand full litigation.
But again, there's plenty of actual censorship in the west. Maybe not the United States, but the UK, Canada, Australia, Germany... all definitely have it, with documented cases.

That's an interesting personal revelation that fails to address the question of whether or not he's in the field and whether the speakers on Gravitation at the fifth MGM in Perth consider his niobium resonant bar part of the generational development of gravity wave detectors.
You said you don’t get market rate.
> e.g., why study to be a paralegal when it’s a job with possibly worse pay and working conditions than many servers and bartenders enjoy?

Because a paralegal gets to work roughly 9-to-5, gets to sit on their ass instead of standing on their feet for 8+ hours, and probably only has to deal with the occasional coked up lawyer rather than drunk assholes every night?

If you're a young, pretty female, you can probably make good money in one of those service jobs. If you're not young, not pretty, or not female, then you're probably WAY better off as a paralegal.
Is this based in Texas? As in, was this named after Ladybird Johnson? Having lived in Texas almost half my life, and having thought of Mrs. Johnson every time the wildflowers bloom alongside the highways, I have to wonder...

I think he's saying precisely that they won't, and I support this. What is issue sponsorship but a donation with strings attached? It would mean ceding control of the direction of the project's development to the highest bidder.
>Under 1M and the city center tends to be very small with most people driving from the suburbs.

That's a very US or modern Asian city view. In my corner of the world, the Rhine-Ruhr area and the Franco/German/Benelux region almost all cities are < 1 million but you'd be hard pressed to not call Ghent or Rotterdam[1] or Düsseldorf a proper city.

Ask HN: What were interviews like before Leetcode?
In the process of recruiting right now and I'm happy to see more and more companies are moving towards non-leetcode style interviews. As a child of the leetcode generation, this got me thinking - what kind of technical questions were asked before leetcode?

Were algorithmic "gotcha" questions still asked? Were the questions easier? Was the bar just higher?

I'm also guessing there was no 'coderpad' or 'hackerrank' - was everything just done on a whiteboard and pseudo-coded?
Indeed, if you build the Knowledge Graph in a "naive" way but just asking the LLM to generate a Knowledge Graph you'll probably end up with a very "dirty" Knowledge Graph full with duplications.

You are correct, thank you
It vaguely feels like it ought to happen yearly. Yearly, but no option of a shift of exactly zero, so everybody knows it is coming every year no matter what.
Unix keeps the 86400 seconds as an invariant, and ignores the IS size of a second. This should work just fine for negative leap seconds too, you just make your seconds shorter instead of longer.

Of course, it's a near certainty that it won't work just fine. But it should.
Are miner deaths relevant to a geology-focused tool? The example of its use was to explain the fossil record.
I remember pleas and slogans of "data wants to be free!" and a generalized public attitude of down with all copyrights and patents. Remember Napster? I find it hard to not think the attitude now is merely the public echoing what "big journalism" is telling them to parrot. I'm so disillusioned.
The Rust standard library, which provides an API for monotonic timestamps, used to contain this silly hack (with appropriately exasperated comment) because in practice so many platforms and CPUs (Linux, Windows, BSD, x86, x64, Arm) failed to provide monotonicity despite their own documentation: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/80184183ba0a53aa4f491...
Riffing on “if it’s painful, do it more often”, I wonder if mandatory leap seconds every year, but trueing up the delta from N years ago, would be a good compromise? Regularity makes it easier to plan, and 6 months’ notice is not really enough for many OS distribution paths (eg IoT, embedded).

Since the list of delta updates is queued, you could bake N years of updates into your system if it’s a fire-and-forget OS. A number in between 5 and 10 seems reasonable to me, but seeing as we are discussing living with 50 years of drift it could be higher. And sure, for this to work, allow non-integer deltas again; or just have a rule that you round the applied adjustment down.

Seems no harder to bake in the last 50 years of leap seconds as to include to Olson TZ database in your distro.
Traveling around China, their sense of scale it pretty much 10x what America's is.

1 million is barely a city, around 5 million and you are a 2nd tier city, hit 8+ million and you are a "real city".

Meanwhile people in America are arguing that they are worried their "100k town is going to add 5000 people and become an urban hellscape!"
One of the main services offered by many community colleges is GED courses for people who dropped out of high school for one reason or another.

> He slammed the door in my face, loud and sharp, like an acoustic lemon.

I think its not really about the sound, it is about the response you might make after a big hit of lemon flavor: puckering up, wincing, pulling your neck back - I can definitely imagine responding to a distasteful and loud sound in the same way.
We could build it into daylight savings time. Instead of jumping an hour, we announce what the jump will be every year.
Religion is not only (and perhaps also not mainly) about belief, but also involves philosophy, community, etc. (And, there are many different kind of religion; they are different in many ways.)

(There are also differences within one religion, although it can also depend how you divide "one religion", because there is denominations, etc. However, what I mean is there are differences even within one denomination and within one community, and whatever else you may wish to divide, etc.)

People do bad things with religion, although people can do bad things with any things. People can also do good things with religion and with others.
What I made is not like explainshell.com at all. It is a GUI for writing command pipelines. Updates to the prompt are parsed into an AST and used to update the GUI. Updates in the GUI are used to build an AST to update the prompt.

I wrote it so I didn't have to keep writing things like this into the line editor:

pg -d test_database -c 'SELECT * from test_table;' | tsvtocsv | ggplot 'ggplot(df, aes(as.Date(date), value)) +
geom_col(fill = "red") +
labs(x = "date") +
theme_minimal()' | pngtohtml

Instead, I could just type in the app:

pg | tsvtocsv | ggplot | pngtohtml

And then fill in the blanks with an instance of the Monaco code editor, looking like:

https://github.com/williamcotton/guish/assets/13163/a5214e93...

It's a small program but it's not a trivial task to get the UX working in a productive manner. I took plenty of the same wrong turns that I would have if I was writing it by hand but was able to iterate much more quickly.

It's more exploratory in nature, seeing how text input and GUI input can complement each other in a novel manner. Sure, I could do this by embedding a SQL query in an R script or something but there's just something that rubs me the wrong way about embedding one language in another instead of having them work side by side.

It's not "just explaining how simple bash commands work".

So thank you for calling me a shitty parent and devaluing my work. You seem awesome.
I'd push for making it an hour already.

If synchronizing our clocks with the Sun is still important by then, then announce it a decade or two beforehand, and make a large ceremony out of the thing.
People keep posting studies dating it doesn't cause hair loss. But it absolutely causes hair loss.
My interviews in the decade before the rise of leetcode, were algorithmic questions very similar to leetcode. Surprise !!!!
I think people are crying way too much about leetcode.
You have to get grants to do research. Grants don't come from scientists (usually), and are subject to the forces of politics. Thus, it's hard to find money to study religion, as it's not politically tenable.
Take a look at term_expansion and goal_expansion in the Prologs that support them.

You could have also said "99% of people don't let their login timeout and hit the SIGALRM"... People don't usually use an SSH RCE because there usually isn't an SSH RCE. If there is, why wouldn't they?

It doesn't matter if 99% of the situations you can think of are not problematic. If 1% is feasible and the attackers know about it, it's an attack vector.

I thought it was about finding conventions that are useful, surprising, or pleasing in some way. Or, given a set of conventions, finding new ways that they are useful, surprising, or pleasing.

So I'm curious to know about this other... non-conventional point.
> People often scoff at complexity in frontend projects

The complexity is there because everyone is trying to reinvent everything.

> accessibility, internationalisation, routing and state including storage of those

Do multi-pages apps and most of these are really trivial due to the amount of solutions that exists.

> There's various authentication and authorization standards

That's also more of a server concerns than the browser.

> these engines are all subtly different

It isn't the old IE days (which Chrome is trying to replicate). More often than not, I hear this often when people expect to implement native-like features inside a web app. It's a web browser. The apps I trust, I download them.

> People want things to work online and offline so they don't lose work while on a train

Build a desktop app.

> Most these people complaining probably barely understand what they're complaining about

Because it's like watching Sisyphus pushing the stone up again and again. The same problem is being solved again and again and if you want to use the latest, you have to redo everything.

Apparently when you sell a vulnerability to a broker, the payment will be a structured settlement spread out over some period of time.

I'm not sure what the valuation for a KVM bug would be, or over what period it would be paid, but I guess you could wait long enough for the majority of the payment to be received before submitting it for a bounty.
I really want this to succeed, rooting for Andreas and the team!
Yep, went to CC, transferred to a school a great computer engineering program and saved a ton of money. My mental health got the best of me in high school and I almost definitely couldn't have gotten accepted anywhere if I hadn't gone the community route, so I am super happy it worked out the way it did.
Common sense is having a true understanding of the world not a bunch of pixel patterns only.
Busy Beaver champion programs are said to run for super-exponentially many steps. But nobody has actually run their simulators for that many steps. Instead, simulators can prove tape fast-forwarding rules. Basically, you look for repeating tape patterns. If you can prove the pattern is correct, then you can apply that transformation again if some tape circumstance shows up again.

For example (using run-length encoding),
1^n 0 1^m
might become
1^(n-1) 0 1^(m+2)

When the rule is applied, the transformation is applied directly to the tape, generally by manipulating some count variables.

Now, how many machine steps does it take to apply this transformation? Well, TBH I'm not really sure. It seems kinda complicated, especially when the rules get more elaborate. If you are trying to run your simulator as fast as possible, you probably don't want to bother calculating it at all anyway, since you can always rerun the analysis at a more leisurely pace later.

So when I say that marks are "more practically important", I mean that marks are central to the operation of advanced simulators, whereas steps are a derived afterthought value.

Logically, the steps are more important, since they give you an easy method for solving the halting problem for the state/color class.

So far, the markiest programs are also the steppiest. My conjecture is that they will turn out to be different in infinitely many classes. If they were always the same, you would be able to get the logical primacy of steps just from working with marks. And that sounds too good to be true.
We're building one of these (out of a mix of servo, rust ui ecosystem and custom components). It's still pretty early (an initial alpha-quality 0.1 release is planned for the end of this month). We're planning to have a high standard of support for CSS and anything related to rendering, but we're not planning a JavaScript engine (although one could be added) with scripting being directly in Rust (with a Rust-based React alternative).

It's a question of scope; a geoscience aware AI that can answer questions about resource availibity, resource extraction and associated risks, costs and impacts that includes the kind of information found in, say, https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/campaigns/met... would be expected to aware of mining deaths.

Just as people want to be aware of nuclear risks for power and deaths in lithium processing from accidents and associated radioactive waste.

It's being touted as a Geoscience tool, not just a chatty geology database.

Attempts to prove BB(5) would have begun long before theorem provers were around. This BB was discovered in 1990, and all machines of size 5 would have been enumerated not long after.

I didn’t even apply to my community college until a few weeks before the first semester. Not sure if I would have went if I had to take a gap year. Probably would be slinging metal in the union right now but sometimes that sounds nicer.
> Nitpick (or is it?) but the website is soulless and just bad.

It is a nitpick, and the website works just fine for conveying what Ladybird is & what the project will be doing: The elevator pitch given was straightforward & at the top of the main page.
Yeah that would be cool. For bounded execution, you should look at “total functional programming” (which always terminates).

They have this concept of codata for the other 1% to make practical, interactive apps - codata represents things like event streams.
My concern is the immunity allows for perpetual, single party rule with only a 1/3 of senate seats and the presidency. There would be no checks in place at the federal level if the party was willing to exercise power to interfere with elections or opposing candidates.
Pretty sure it works almost everywhere. I was a HS dropout who went from an "Intro to Functions" remedial class to DiffEq/Linear Algebra (which they let you take simultaneously) all in community college, before transferring to real college. Managed to knock it out in three semesters and a summer.

The first two years of an undergraduate degree are pretty general anyway.

There isn't a reference provided for that sentence in the article, but it's something that seems true to me, from my own experience. I'd really love to see some hard research confirming or denying this.
Cost originally, more recently probably so vendors can segment the market better for different products, i.e. you now have to get the fastest processor to get the most ram, regardless of your workload.
This is the heads up fine _just_ to update the privacy policy. It's a mere warning.

The fine for each privacy infraction is 2% of the company's last year earnings, limited to 50 million BRL (~9 million USD). If 500 brazillians had their privacy violated by a platform, that platform needs to pay 500 of these fines once per day until it is fixed. There's also all sorts of extra punishments for not fixing it in time (like mandatory suspension of services).

Facebook is not forbidden to use your data for AI. It can do so, as long as it provide means for you to delete it. A button to clean your data, for example. That would be legal. We know for LLMs is not that easy though.
That’s sort of like saying, “couldn’t you just check that the output from a buggy sort algorithm is sorted?” Yes, it’s true that generate-and-verify is a valid algorithm, but only if you have some way to verify the results and try again if it’s bad, so it’s not just “generate and trust.” (And it should be automatic, because verifying that your SQL query output is sorted manually would be unbearably tedious.)

And sure, this is why relying on autocomplete while coding is fairly harmless, because we do have a lot of ways to verify that the code works.

The trouble is, people want to deploy LLM’s in situations where there’s no easy way to verify every output. “Explainability” is supposed to assist the user doing the verification.
If it's near the sun you cannot see it in the middle of the night (except in polar areas during summer). But why only morning and not evening?
No, its pessimism. Trump doesn’t have what it takes to restore the system to even a semblance of balance. I’m not sure it’s even possible given the decay in government-adjacent institutions like the law schools and bar associations.
I was going to say something like this, but in practice wireguard is very very tiny. It doesn't have pluggable authentication, or passwords, or user transitions, or forked subprocesses, or systemd integrations. Using it or another simple secure transport in front of SSH is probably a good idea.
Most of the issues that people have with it are a lack of attribution and using this freely scraped data to turn a profit.

I don't think examples of FreeDOS being useful 'prove [your] point' about FreeDOS being useless. I think the word 'useless' is an overstatement that's very easy to quibble over, and which therefore gets in the way of you getting your overall point across.

I think your overall point, ars gratia artis, is correct. People have a proclivity for trying to quantify the 'success' of OSS projects by virtue of user counts, use cases, etc, and yet all such measures are totally irrelevant for a non-profit project. There could be a single maintainer and a single user, and so long as they're both happy, the project is a success.
