> The only thing sad here is that all this work to enable full-width AVX512 is going to be mostly wasted as approximately 0% of all client software will get recompiled to an AVX512 baseline for decades if ever.

Well, the other thing is that for workloads where you're cramming 512b vectors through 2xFMAs every cycle -- there's a good chance you can (and have been) just buying GPUs to handle that problem. So, I think that space has been eaten up a bit in recent times.

I don't think it will be decades of waiting though. AVX2 is a practical baseline today IMO and Haswell is what, barely 10 years old? Intel dragged their feet like crazy of course, but "decades" from now is a bit much. And AVX-512's best feature -- it's much more coherent and regular design -- means a lot of vectorization opportunities might be easier to do, even automatically (e.g. universal masking and gather/scatters make loop optimizations more straightforward.) We'll have to see how it shakes out.
> i wonder how much of kids technology use today could count as 'play'?

Basically, none. The 'play' that is important here is unstructured play with other children, face-to-face. All social mammals engage in play of this type, and it's critical for teaching a lot of important skills.

To clarify, there may be other things kids do that can validly be called "play" that are solitary, but that's really not the issue that's at hand here, and those types of solitary play activities can't substitute for play with other kids.

Technology simply can't, and shouldn't, be confused as a substitute for a lot of human interactions. I really like Esther Perel's talks about the new "AI", meaning artificial intimacy, where "I have a thousand friends, but nobody to feed my cat."
I love that it offers features like 3D floor plan images, video tours, and AI-powered interior design at an affordable price. This could really enhance the way properties are showcased online. Have you tried their service yet, and how was your experience?
Gaelic on signs in the eastern borders and Midlothian are my favourite .
This still sounds like faulty logic. The existence of bias in one case doesn't prove it in all cases. Sometimes there really is just an innocent victim. Further, there's no reason to believe there are two sides to any issue. Reality is messy. Your test is too simplistic and fails basic validation.

So in hindsight, if you were CEO of Mozilla - what would you have done differently that you believe would have maintained Firefox market share?

——

I think diehard Firefox fans don’t understand that, no matter how great you make Firefox - it will always lose share to better distribution.

Google had the best distribution because it was the vast majority of consumers homepage. And on the homepage, it was nagging users to install chrome.

Distribution > Better Product
And the whole WWII plane meme concern... this is where crimes were caught/reported, not where they occurred.
It's an exciting move by X! They seem to adapt to the changing work environment. I wonder how this relocation will impact their company culture and operations in the long run.
Yes and no. Some I’ve bought recently is good and some is the name on normal ceramics or glass. It is now buyer beware for sure.
The more "helicoptery" segments of society seem to be doing better, at least economically, than their more hands-off counterparts. There's a couple of possible explanations for this (including reverse-causation), but it seems at least plausible that there may be a material trade-off here, where the kind of self-denial that makes you miserable is also what gets you ahead. I haven't personally found that that's the case - one of the big personal reasons I founded my company is to take a bet that I can succeed without being anything other than myself, both to prove it to myself and to everyone else - but I could very easily be wrong, especially because I really don't want it to be true.

The increasing competitiveness of careers and the ability to get "locked out" from early missteps seems like another possible causative factor. Setting aside for a moment to what extent it's actually true, it's certainly true that a lot of youth have a strong perception that missteps can screw them over for good separately from the ideas they're getting from parents.

There's less room to do stupid things in high school when your future depends (or at least, depends as far as you're concerned) on a four-year degree from a good school. To get into a good school, you need to rack up those AP credits. Better start in tenth grade, there's not enough hours in the day to get them all. And to get into those classes you'd better do well on that prep PSAT you took in eighth grade, so you should start prepping for it in seventh, and whoops look at the time you'd better start working hard there, hypothetical nine-year-old.

"Third spaces" vanishing is a physical manifestation of a broader phenomenon: the elimination of slack in a world that is optimizing it away in favor of, well, Slack.
We just let our kids leave. Which apparently has made them extremely popular and every parent on the block is texting my wife asking if they can come over and play. My 9 year old is known as the kid who comes up with fun games to play.

The five year old is in a wheelchair but her sister puts her in the buggy stroller with rollbars (made sense to buy the nice one since she’ll need it essentially indefinitely) and she’ll hang out too. She used to have some severe health problems that kept her at home but just because she can’t walk doesn’t keep her from getting out of the house for some unsupervised play. It’s not that hard, I live in one of the safest places in the entire world, it’ll be fine. It’s funny because when I lived in the really bad part of town there were even MORE kids walking around aimlessly outside than there are in the nice part of town.

We also aggressively restrict screen time and have a lot of board games, stuff for the kids to do, which really helps.

Today my daughter had a whole conflict with the neighborhood bullies after her friend called them frogheads. They yelled back, and my daughter flipped them off. I wouldn’t admit it to their parents but I’m a little proud, haha. Those kids are jerks.
None of it counts as play. If there are no real stakes (cuts and bruises) there is no real learning. Children need boredom to force themselves to seek new experiences. Technology disrupts critical brain development for anyone under 16.
Collaborative systems come to mind. If you edit a document and want to subscribe to changes from other nodes it is valuable to have very low latency.
Jonathan Haidt, well-known author of "The Anxious Generation", has spoken a lot about the transition from "play-based childhood" to a "phone-based childhood", and it makes me incredibly sad whenever I hear him talk about it.
And conveniently, court cases that will inevitably be appealed to a supreme court.

The ambiguity, of course shifts the power to the courts to resolve.

Have you read it? That's not the authors' conclusion.
>Even floating around in space for 8 months is not risk free.

Correct. That said, ISS's quarter century of operations is a pretty good track record. Starliner's so far is dismal.

The best solution is to bring Wilmore and Williams back sooner than February. If that means Boeing paying for a rescue Crew Dragon launch, so be it.
Do you have a source for Gaelic being spoken in places like Berwickshire?

But they do think a crime is in progress and has occured. People have been charged. That is why they were keeping the lists!

These aren't lists of people to get Christmas hampers, these are lists of people the police expect to charge with crimes. Even if the police in this instance are, for the sake of argument, irredeemably corrupt there may be literally nothing they are going to do with these lists except call people criminals. Otherwise they'd keep them in a private capacity. It isn't reasonable to preemptively declare that the police can't suspect people of being criminals.

These aren't matters that can be preemptively dealt with by adding rules or restrictions on the police reading public information. It has to be done in review.
I'm not worried about SQL invitation so much as I'd rather just query my C# objects instead of writing raw SQL. Yuck.
You give yourself far too much credit. You provided a fig leaf to cover an ideological power grab by the court, as evidenced by the naked 6-3 partisan vote split. The court was going to dismantle the EPA anyway, and you just gave them some flimsy reasoning with which to do it. They would have run with far less than this, as evidenced by the run of extremely questionable court decisions which have occurred since conservatives gained the super majority.

Who's defending Imperial Japan? Nuance just means recognizing that actors on both sides were participants in the build up. I dislike the wholesale excusing of one sides actions because the other side was worse.

Given that Imperial Japan was so awful I'm wondering how far you would allow the U.S. to go? How about if the U.S. rounded up all Japanese Americans and put them in camps? Also completely okay, I guess, because Imperial Japan.
Ask HN: What is the success rate of those that join YC?
curious to know what the success rate of those that join YC is?

Success as in they reach IPO or cashed out in secondary markets or acquired for at least 1000% ROI (10x bagger)

What does the % look like here roughly?

For those still grinding it out, are they profitable and able to generate their own runway from enterprise sales?

Of those that failed to get any acquisition or ROI, what is the % rate look like there?
I already love Firefox. Its Mozilla what I dont like. Fire the board and especially CEO, transfer assets to Firefox, dissolve foundation and never come back to software sector.
They might be wrong, but that doesnt mean they like living in squalor.

Even if your solution is 100% workable, your statement is like saying a man must really like drowning because they dont know how to swim.

I guess I dont think it isn't very constructive.
I am so incredibly envious of the future humans that will live in a world without death.

I have decided that soon I will quit my job ($1M+ TC at FAANG), and I will dedicate the entirety of my remaining life (I am ~30) to helping humanity solve death, even if I never benefit from it.

This is a difficult decision for me because I am giving up a life of guaranteed luxury and comfort for a moonshot that almost certainly will not pan out. But I can think of no greater and more meaningful pursuit. This is my Zero Dawn. Moving the needle here is the only thing that will let me - ironically - die happy.

I think there are a lot of engineers out there looking for something more meaningful than their FAANG or tech job. Immense potential to be leveraged here if we come together.
> was foolishly violating the safety protocols by using a screwdriver to hold the two halves of the sphere apart. When the screwdriver slipped, the core dropped to form a critical mass

I always thought the material had to be forced together at high pressure for the chain reaction to start. Crazy that just dropping it had such dire consequences.
I'd argue it is play, but not sufficient play.

I learned to type by trying to frantically communicate with other players in World of Warcraft. I wasn't trying to learn to type, any more than a kid playing soccer is trying to develop motor skills, but I learned by exposure. Kids today playing games on an iPad or texting their friends don't think of those things as developing technological fluency or language skills, but that's exactly what it is, and that does matter.

It's just that other things matter too.

I'd call what you're calling "play" something like "social play". And in this framing the problem is that, by providing more immediately-available and compelling activities than talking with their friends, we're denying the incidental development of social bonds and skills (like negotiating rules or handling conflicts) that kids need. So they're getting play that's heavily focused in one area, rather than the varied exposure that equips them for all the different pieces of life.
Would be worth an experiment potentially but it’ll depend on where the protection circuitry lives. A modern BMS chip is relatively complicated and will freak out if the attached “battery” is doing this that wouldn’t be safe for a LiPo cell (eg a capacitor will happily drain to 0V but a LiPo drained to 0V has probably been destroyed)
We only consider the killing of civilians a crime when it's committed by those we define as our enemies.

If I were CEO of Mozilla I would have also killed the core product by implementing Facebook's user tracking shit and making Google the default search engine just so I can rake in something like $10 million personally.

Then I'd retire and start an open-source project to develop a good open-source browser that puts user's interests first.

The problem is the CEO of Mozilla doesn't do the second part.
I admire people who are able to really believe in an idea they come up with and spent many years building it. I'm sure OP when you started off, you saw competitor offering, what made the turning point that made you realize and committed, "you know out of a million other ideas, this is what I want to work with".

I have a million ideas on my diary and have yet to build any of them. They aren't truly unique but I see them as a "practice" that when one Mythical day I don't have worried and have ample time, I can take the first step. My current free time is occupied by job hunt and LC..

Also, in term of technologies, what is the core idea/tool that converts 2d drawing into 3d. Is it truly automatic or some core principles behind it, like OCR but for 3d models? I have zero exposure in OpenCV
Death is no big deal.
Yes. It will take an AI to talk to an AI.

AI talking to biologics. It would be like talking to dolphins. How’s the fish?
I don't know anything about the internals of io_uring and am genuinely curious how it works. Saying it "directly works asynchronously" doesn't mean anything though. When circular buffer requests are processed what thread is processing the request, how is that thread managed, and how does it manage blocking/unblocking when communicating with the storage device?
Going from C# to Typescript with type unions it always felt weird. Maybe that’s a good reason to have held off on this for this long? Know your audience and all that?

It does get used to but still reading the too many A|B|undefined gets tiring after a while. It also adds to laziness as you could take one thing and be fuzzy about returning a combo of three or more things. And as you go up the stack this gets more and more confusing.

C# forces you to deal with this in a constrained way which I like.

But perhaps there are folks who are excited by this that have a convincing argument? Please educate me.
Delay death as you will, but thermodynamics will always have the last laugh.
Matterport needs cameras and specialize rig to convert into fully working 3D model.

Unfortunately, you can't "drain" into saturated soil. At that point you're building a boat more than a house: keeping water out on all sides.

I'm assuming it's a fully-enclosed basement? I.e. no walk-out side?

The best you can likely do is waterproofing the basement walls + pumping out from inside or an inside-perimeter drain. But that's only racing pump_out_flow > seep_in_flow.

And that's a bad game to be in, because water under pressure (which it will be a story below ground) finds a way.

I'd make the basement flood tolerant (limit mold-hosting materials and places water can be trapped) + pump it out quickly after it floods + buy a dehumidifier, and accept it's going to happen.

No one is going to bother with your side project if the first chance they attempt to use it, they simply can't. They'll say to themselves "oh well, I guess it's still a work in progress" and move on and forget about it. Posting a Show HN project is like an elevator pitch, you've got to capture the interest of your target audience quickly and be able to deliver at least a viable product. Not supporting PDF isn't a huge issue, that's just a future feature but not even allowing someone to use it is a failure even if the tech is sound.

This thing looks cool and if I was in real estate or apartment management, I'd probably be interested in trying it out. But if I can't, I'm just going to forget about it since I've probably already got a solution for 3D renders. At the very least, the emails are collected so OP can send out a blast saying it works now and hopefully some people give it another shot.

It's not possible to escape death, and all timelines will feel short when it comes to their end. Reducing the suffering of life, whether mental or physical, seems a more achievable pursuit. To die without cancer, dementia, chronic pain or the so many other ailments would be amazing.

First off yes I (and I think 99% of people) would be totally fine with your closing hypothetical. Why would I care about CNN’s ad revenue? Never even enters my mind.

But more fundamentally your frame totally omits brand safety, which is kind of the whole ball game. A group that exists to evaluate brands safety thought that changes to Twitter made it less brand safe and said so. It’s like suing a bond rating agency for downgrading your rating

have you actually done any web scrapping at scale? The problem is never the web automation. It's bypassing IP blacklist, rate limits, capcha etc, and a hosted service can provide solutions for those:

> Proxies included..., Auto Captcha Solving, Advanced Stealth Mode

Other than that, like everything else, a hosted service is always an option and not contradict with you being able to host that service directly, they're just for different sets of constrains.

Why has Apple not brought this kind of hardware/software memory safety to their platform?

They control the entire stack, even down to the silicon.
They go hand in hand. Any reasonable path to eliminating mortality will entail eliminating aging and degenerative conditions.

Often, when people first imagine living much much longer, they imagine having more years feeling 90 or progressively worse, rather than having more years feeling 50 or 30. But much of what makes 90 feel 90 is the degenerative problems of age that also end up killing you.
If we told someone 200 years ago that I'd be typing this on a pane of glass that talks to satellites in low earth orbit at the speed of light, accessing the entire repository of human knowledge while hurtling through the air at 600 MPH in a man made bird, they'd call it impossible (and probably burn us at the stake.)

If we told the same person that we have managed to create a crude facsimile of intelligence and expect to have full intelligence in our lifetimes, running on lightning trapped in purified sand, their mind would simply break.

I am confident that humanity will solve death on all relevant timescales, out to the heat-death of the universe itself.

I am optimistic that today will be looked back on as "that era when people died, isn't that sad?"

I'm a Firefox use, and while I agree Mozilla neglected it, I think leadership saw the writing on the wall that they're at best the #4 player after Chrome, Safari, and Edge, and they decided to branch out in search of new lines of business. It turns out there isn't a story there (and probably never was--this was a desperation move), and now they're left with Firefox in an even worse state.
