I would guess that the main reason is that the on-stack way only works for local variables. If you want to pass anything else by reference, you need to use some kind of address to it, since it's not in the caller's stack anyway.
Maybe I misunderstood your question. I think of a "visitor" as someone browsing a site anonymously. Unless/until they give contact information somehow -- a signup form, a chat request, etc. -- they remain anonymous so there's nothing I can do to qualify or follow-up.

Once a visitor has given their name, email, phone number, etc. they count as a "lead" and sales people can contact them and follow up. Whether Slack is a good tool for that or not depends on the organization. The companies I have done this kind of work for use a CRM such as HubSpot or Salesforce, with leads from their web sites going into the CRM for qualification and follow-up.

I have never found website activity useful for sales, but my customers usually have Google Analytics or something equivalent (they mostly use GA) to see patterns of activity and get aggregate reporting. You can drill down to individual user sessions but the goal of lead gathering is to get name and email, not necessarily to track otherwise anonymous activity on the site. Analytics can tell you how many visitors you converted to leads (or didn't) and help with getting more visitors to give contact information, but I don't think an IP address helps much with prospecting.
But the massive buildup of the Chinese Navy and their paramilitary maritime militias are not cheap. In the end the only thing that matters is if China invades Taiwan there will be war, if it doesnt there wont be. Better be prepared for the first case.
LGPL also allows that.

What MPL is missing AFAIK that AGPL does have is requiring making source/changes available when providing the software as a network service.
I believe Nassim Taleb coined the term.
I thought so too, and I thought "this is just robust control with different words", but after reading the abstract I don't think robust control actually describes deriving an improvement from perturbing an input.

On the other hand, "persistence of excitation" (a phrase I've heard of but never applied) suggests this too is well trodden ground (Wikipedia suggests end of 70s & 80s)
That's precisely my point. Disney may still be mostly a kids' brand, but I bet their robotics department would hold its own if corporate decided to enter heavy industry or military robotics markets. The brand may seem like a joke, but the expertise isn't.

Everything you read comes from manufacturers or bloggers/influencers paid by manufacturers. On construction forums you'll find plenty of people complaining of weird smells months/years down the line.

I just finished Termination Shock last month! I thought it was super interesting, and I learned a lot about the LAC. Kind of funny to read as a Dutch person, too.

I feel like Stephenson's 'recent' novels are longer and more rambling, but that was exactly what I wanted after reading all of John Scalzi's works in a row.

Finished Anathem last week, that was also amazing.
Why? One depends on development practices, the other on security-team practices. You can have a team of donkeys building a product and the sharpest hackers guarding it. Ideally best practices would trickle down, but that's not a given.
Then imagine how often this happens without the "sensible employee" and "pop a ticket in JIRA" parts.
After reading the paper, I'm really unsure what the novel contribution is. It feels like they're attempting to rebrand well-understood concepts within various fields (control systems theory, etc). The provided mathematical definition of antifragility is somewhat unconvincing too: it's not that it's wrong, per say, but in the effort to find something sufficiently broad to apply to many different fields of applied dynamical theory they've had to adopt a definition which is a bit unintuitive, and overly general.
Does it only run in Chrome? Is my VM too slow? Anyway, it doesn't work in my Linux Firefox. Too bad we don't have a real app for this.
> Why do we even have the App Store then? For the rest 5%?

No. We have AppStore for the hundreds of thousands of apps that cannot be implemented using web tech. And for hundreds of thousands of apps that people could implement using web tech, but don't want to for various reasons, both big (too many workarounds) to small (abysmal performance for the simplest tasks)

It is something that Taleb proposed and given a name for - given 'fragility', 'antifragility' makes sense, since it isn't resilience (he discusses that).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifragility contains a mathematical heuristic of the term applied to some function.

I have been able to save USD 500 with a VPN (booked Aeroflot ticket advertised on Russian google with a Russian IP). I am able to read a little bit Cyrillic so I was able to go through the booking. Citibank then blocked my CC and called me. Did everything again and got the ticket for USD 1000 instead of USD 1500.

Good experience with switching languages on sites. I was able to buy tickets 80% discounted by switching from English to the native language.

PWAs are only able to be limited by technical measures, not business measures. For instance, anti-fingerprinting logic wouldn’t be needed in an App Store. There, Apple can say if they find out you are fingerprinting users without going through Apple’s specific ATT user consent process, you are in violation of our developer agreement and may be permanently banned from the store.

Each update of an app is reviewed, while a website can change completely at any moment (or have different versions served for different people). This is why for instance web extensions are heavily reviewed and audited.

This means they are pretty fundamentally different models.

The prompt for location is different for example because Apple enforces you are using the location information you gather for a specified reason, and has the aforementioned business penalties for misuse, and has tied all that to a real world identity. The browser can’t know if the page asking for location data is for mapping, for marketing tracking, or so that someone can drive to your home. The two features are going to look and behave distinctly.
Likely true, but so what? LinkedIn already has very little value for job seekers (or recruiters) except as a numbers game because of its scale. Adding more spam to it doesn't improve anything, and spamming out CVs won't make recruiters stop posting junk.

My theory is the excess weight is more of a symptom than the root trigger. Eating too much makes the body work too hard. Frequent and excessive insulin swings, also unhealthy. Lack of movement, also undermines the systems' design. Etc. Etc.

Prevent the body (and mind) from functioning naturally (in an historic / evolutionary sense) and bad tbings happen. Obesity is the cherry on top of the cake of unhealthy diet and lifestyle.

The question is: what happens to Ozempic users over the long term? If you start on it at 18 y/o (or whatever the approved age is) what happens in 5 yrs, 10 yrs, etc. Statins eventually hit the wall so to speak, will these other system-altering drugs do the same?
Not only but also; as with a real tax from a government, all the money goes into a big pot, gets mixed around, and then the expenses come out unevenly from that pot.

I'm not at all aware of where the boundary is between "that's fine" and "that's abuse of market dominance to fund uneconomical expansion".

Does anywhere have a specific "national defence" tax and another "police fund" tax etc. for each expense, rather than "income tax" and "sales tax" for each source?
We’re thrilled to announce that MrScraper has been named Product of the Week on Dev Hunt! Here’s a quick look at how we did it and what we learned.

1. Preparation
Before launching, we ensured that MrScraper was ready for the spotlight. We focused on:
Polishing the Product: Extensive testing and user feedback helped us refine every detail.
Crafting Our Message: We made sure our value proposition was crystal clear.
Creating Visuals: Eye-catching graphics were a must to grab attention.

2. Building Hype
In the days leading up to the launch, we built anticipation by:
Teasing the Launch: We shared sneak peeks and countdowns on social media.
Engaging Our Community: We encouraged our existing users to support us on launch day.
Partnering with Influencers: We collaborated with influencers to expand our reach.

3. Launch Day
On launch day, we focused on:
Early Launch: We went live early to maximize visibility.
Staying Engaged: We actively responded to comments and feedback on Dev Hunt.
Social Media Push: We promoted the launch across our social channels.

4. What We Learned
Our key takeaways:
Community Engagement is Crucial: Your audience can make or break your launch.
Timing Matters: Launching at the right time can significantly boost visibility.
Continuous Improvement: Keep improving based on feedback even after the launch.
What’s Next?
We’re excited to keep improving MrScraper and rolling out new features. Thanks to everyone who supported us!

I think you meant "towards marketing claiming green tech".
> lack of proper enums, lack of sum types, no null safety etc

I miss the same for work.

I wonder how long it will take for Go to be the new PHP. Zealotism is through the roof. I read here people say "lack of proper enums, lack of sum types, no null safety" is a good thing. I read here people say "you can do anything with Go". It's simply not true, and very uninformed.

I wish everyone a good experience with their lang of choice.
You are redefining "tragedy of the commons" there... TOTC is about overusing shared resources (e.g. too many people helping themselves to a shared plate of food), not about confusing who should do what.

> The AGPL is still about identifying people doing bad things we don't like, except now those people are just running the program.

Its the same "bad thing" as distributing a modified binary without the source. Its a way of denying end users access to the source code.

You can do whatever you like with AGPL code, as long as you make the source available.

it is VERY different from saying "you cannot do this with your software". It is just changing the conditions under which make source available is required to keep up with how people use software has changed.

AGPL is nothing like a EULA. It is a license, not a contract. It is very similar to the GPL

U.S. Federal Agencies Brace for $7.1B Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration
If I were the FCC, I would issue "transmission licenses" valid for 10 years, to anyone who wants one for the unlicensed bands. The license would be a signed digital file shipped on hardware. They would work like let's encrypt - when nearing expiry, your device could auto-renew its license via the internet. It could transmit its license via a wifi beacon packet, allowing other devices to use the license too (with the same expiry time).

Basically, if your device is offline for 10 years, and isn't in range of any other online device for 10 years, then it will stop working.

The license would list frequency bands and power levels. That allows the FCC to decide to limit power later, or reduce/widen frequency ranges, and devices already in the field will start to comply within 10 years.

A few bands intended for less smart devices (ie. doesn't have both transmit and receive, isn't digital, doesn't have a clock or storage, etc) wouldn't require such licenses.

Show HN: I Made a Simple Tailwind CSS Quiz Game
Hi,

To advance my Tailwind CSS skills, I made a little quiz game to help me remember e.g. the height of h-48, how add line height etc.

Thought maybe others would find it funny as well and potentially help them become better at Tailwind :)
For all that LLMs produce good performance, it's still just predictive texting. If you can get the hallucination rate on that down to 0% without using anything else, I'll be extremely shocked.

Now, layer a few sanity checks on top of an LLM, especially some clever thing we haven't invented yet, and I'll totally believe it - the task is absolutely doable, I'd just find it really weird if a predictive engine could do it 100% accurately, using only modern resources.
Nyc has a hard shutdown at 4am. By law. With most things shutting down at 12/2. Especially post-covid.

Obviously lots of neurospicy brains are different but this feels like something I might be able to get on board with. Shame that tablet is so expensive though, it looks pretty cool. I guess its time to buy yet another notebook haha.

Also I don't know if you've considered it, I read your post about autism, have you looked into ADHD at all? It has a pretty high rate of comorbidity with autism, and some of your experiences around organisational difficulties sound similar to what I've seen a lot of ADHD people struggle with. If you're not adverse to medication, it's something that you might be able to get help for (though UK wait times are abysmal so YMMV)
If you aren't able to get enough funding through Patreon, then it's simply because you haven't found a large enough or the right audience yet. It has nothing to do with value add. Not every viewer is going to subscribe to you on Patreon. Even the biggest channels I have subbed on Patreon have a fraction of their viewers on Patreon of what they have on YouTube, yet it's more than sufficient to fund an entire well-off lifestyle based on it.
How is a + b any less “know precisely what it does” than a.add(b)? It’s literally just different syntax for the same thing.
I believe this approach in general is known as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_analysis

It would be trickier however if looking at raw keystrokes, as one has to consider several confounding factors:

* The caret can be moved both by keystrokes and mouse
* You don't know what is being typed. If someone is typing people's names all day, or writing software then the analysis of letter/key frequency will be shifted

Not impossible, but makes the process harder.
This is true for all varints. The choice of encoding just changes the shape of the decision tree.
I've had exactly the same experience, it's a nice language but using it for things it's not suited for like data exploration makes no sense to me.

Production data pipelines on the other hand, but only after testing them well and as you say, making sure there's good testing if you're implementing things like numerical routines.
Yeah that is the dream
> fairness does not exist in the market, only competition.

The first part is undoubtedly true, but competition doesn't exist here either. That Apple is getting away with their anti-competitive practices is a full-blown scandal.
I believe the Go design of having all types be structs and supporting explicit pointers to them is separate from their managed stack design, and both are separate still from the GC design.

You can have value types as the base type, and support (managed) pointers to the value types freely in a runtime like .NET or the JVM. I tend to think the data type design is better in Go, but the coroutine implementation and simplistic mark-and-sweep GC are inferior.

I'll also note that I should have checked how things had changed in C#. I hadn't used it sine C# 4 or something, when the ref keyword was limited to method parameters. Thanks for explaining the wealth of improvements since. This makes it indeed a core type of pointer, instead of being limited to a parameter passing scheme.

And yes, you're right that there exist many c# communities with different standards of use, and some are much more low level than Go can even... Go. I was talking mostly about the kind of things you'd find as recommendations from official MS docs or John Skeet answers on SO when I was saying "C# community", but you're absolutely right that this is a limited view and doesn't accurately encompass even some major forces in the ecosystem.

I'd put it a year or so later, but that's still a guess. Let's leave it for now and see if anyone can pin it down further.
I'm a counter example to this. I've stayed for a long time at my parents. I also had gaming addiction. My parents let me do whatever I wanted. In part, this was because they recognized that they didn't have the knowledge or wisdom to tell me what to do. All they could do was to provide me: love, food and a roof over my head. We all knew this.

One big difference though is that I come from a family of abuse and they scared the living hell out of me by showcasing all the addicts in our family and their educational obtainment. So for me, school was a flight to safety, despite being game addicted as well. At the time, game addiction wasn't a well understood thing. I barely scraped by in high school, but I got into university.

University felt much more like a game to me anyway, so I decided to gamify it and make a whole game out of it. Then studying at university became my addiction.

Oh, and I was still living at home all this time.
This is honestly the main problem I have with that. You can argue that in-app purchase brings convenience etc. etc. and Apple deserves a cut and so on. But this enforced secrecy makes users unaware of the cost - they can't actually decide if the cut is worth the convenience or not. Apple relies on people not knowing the cost of the fees and that feels very dodgy.
that perhaps protects passwords but what if you're just trying to learn what somebody is writing?

This article is infuriating. Morgan McKinley calling job seekers 'lazy' makes me sick. The entire article misses the most obvious point. If AI can easily pass your selection processes, then the problem is your selection process.

CVs need to show the candidate’s personality, their passions, their story, and that is something AI simply can’t do.

I'm sorry but if you honestly think a CV can give any reasonable insight into someones personality, then you have no business reviewing CVs in the first place.

Heh, his sockpuppet (/u/puzzledpenguins) deleted the posts where he claimed this was his favorite game.

Would be nice if you used AI to "clean" the article. The reason why I didn't like other readers is because they just access the website in reader mode and transcribe, but they keep all the urls, weird tittle formatting etc which makes the transcription really annoying to listen too. I think a simple prompt like "rewrite this article removing all formatting, just keep the content" should work!

It’s a fraction of a percent of the population that have used it.

I completely agree with your larger point. However:

> start up comp had a near 0 health insurance cover. A decade's worth savings wiped clean in one go

A typical employer provided health insurance probably wouldn't have made a difference here. The sum insured generally tops out around 10 lakhs.
I don't think this is the case - because then we'd see them pull card services for porn websites altogether. This clearly didn't happen, nor was it the intention. They never did anything that would reduce revenue.

Instead, it was more a case of regulation to avoid looking like their services were financing illegal or illicit content.
