Spaces are just an example to demonstrate the idea. You could apply the same logic to braces, whether curlies are on their own line or not, whether there are spaces between some delimiters or not etc. The idea is that specific formatting doesn't matter, anyone could use their own personal preference because the AST behind it is the same.

A couple of other people in the thread are using it too apparently. They're the Microsoft TROCR models. You do need a moderate amount of software to deskew, process, and segment the image before handing it to the model but after that it's typically extremely accurate in my experience.

Setting up my software online and monetizing it is next in the queue after my current side project. Although I haven't checked the model licenses.
> The accusation turned their relationship toxic

That sounds like a completely different problem. Bikeshedding is typically just someone getting caught in the weeds, and not a big deal to correct. Point it out, re-focus and move on.

If it turned a relationship toxic, or if people made such a big deal that it even gets described as "outright accuse", it sound like things were blown out of proportion, and there is likely a completely different root cause to the toxicity.
Isn't the question whether a firmware / BIOS / microcode invasion is detectable given that the firmware has been taken over? The answer being probably not. Except for reading the flash memory at the chip level which is most likely not provided off the shelf by the system. To be repaired, the problem needs to be noticed first.

I'm sure some people feel that way, but I also know not everyone does. I have to wonder how much of that is a consequence of aging. Anyway, life extension can be a choice, once it's available.

~10 FTEs, US, 75% percentile salaries, fully loaded, 1.5-3M. Figure that team salaries is probably about 50% of the total software cost (hosting, support, tooling, on call, management overhead, recruiting, training etc)$3-$5M. Rounded to the nearest 0.5 for convenience. We got about ~4 bits of data from the OP, so I didn’t put too much work into making my estimate precise. I prefer to get the ‘software is fucking expensive and terrible’ experience on the front end and go from there, if people are still into it.

That’s not true, nasa engaged in studies of its suppliers in the 60s to determine if their short term profit seeking was working well enough that it might encourage further capital investments from the private sector in supply chain companies, nasa wanted to make sure there was enough fat in what it paid suppliers to attract further investment but not so much to attract public scandal as to the disposal of public tax dollars.

I'm sorry, but what instance of "court stacking" are you referring to when you say again?

The way the the Supreme Court has been stacked today (via Republicans refusing to consider Obama's SCOTUS nominee for nearly a year because the election was coming "soon", but fast-tracking Trump's nominee three weeks before the election) has, in my memory, been unprecedented.

It certainly is a bit of a novelty, but there are a few Theremin-featuring pieces that I find pleasing, a classic example is the Theremin and piano arrangement of Saint-Saens' The Swan.

Here is Clara Rockmore performing it (I think this is a video of the recording on The Art of the Theremin) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdFSU8sn3mo . There's a very nice arrangement of La vie en rose from the same sessions.

She developed a lot of the Theremin techniques and - despite some argument about how practical vs. performative they are - is likely the best Theremin player ever. She was previously trained as violinist and an answer to why you would _play_ a theremin: her tendinitis killed her violin career but could keep playing music with the force-less theremin.

There are also a surprising number of well-known pop (etc.) songs that include a theremin somewhere. Not my list, but I see most of the ones I'm aware of here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0p2SpBZ3xDEjemAVlwmWeF?si=...
I was mainly responding to this paragraph in the submission:

> The HMPL template language extends the capabilities of regular HTML by adding query objects to the markup to reduce the code on the client. When writing SPA, a large amount of javascript code is generated, which is loaded when the user visits the site, so the loading speed can be quite slow. All this can be avoided by generating the markup on the server and then loading it on the client:

< some code >

Let's say that the same code on popular frameworks such as Vue and others takes up much more code, which, in fact, can be moved to the server.

Maybe I’m misinterpreting but this seems to say that this approach is an improvement over SPAs. My point is that this is basically what everyone else has done all the time before SPAs were even a thing.

I do agree, but with the popularity of Wordpress, I see more and more larger companies using it as a solution. I think the bigger issue is having the site penetrated, then silently serving up malware to your clients, than defacement or anything that would receive attention. I'm not familiar if there is a plugin or solution for integrating a password checking service with Wordpress. I know that it's not difficult to integrate with other CMS solutions.

> Are there any good reasons to use a TLD like .internal for private-use applications, rather than just a regular gTLD like .com?

That assumes you are able to pay to rent a domain name, and keep paying for it, and that you are reasonably sure that the company you're renting it from is not going to take it away from you because of a selectively-enforced TOS, and that you are reasonably sure that both yourself and your registrar are doing anything possible to avoid getting your account compromised (resulting in your domain being transferred to someone else's and probably lost forever unless you can take legal action).

So it might depend on your threat model.

Also, a good example, and maybe the main reason for this specific name instead of other proposals, is that big corps are already using it (e.g. DNS search domains in AWS EC2 instances) and don't want someone else to register it.
The scenario “stuck at 80% completion” is likely.

Focus on the functions/features you currently use and can not live without.

Try to build an MVP (or as many microservices as needed) which serve as a proof that you can build the missing 20%.

Don’t bother building flashy GUIs, try to build the actual logic first. If you fail building this 20%, you avoid wasting funds for the flashy 80%.

Been there, done that. We built the flashy 80% and everything came to an abrupt stop when leaders realized we can not build the most important parts because the underlying platform does not support what was supposedly supported (miscomm with standard platform supplier during req engineering).
Would love to see a demo of this.
Persists in BIOS flash most likely - that's the writeable place. Re-flashable if the invaded BIOS even tells you that it's been changed (why would it?). And then if it lets you reflash (why would it). Let you switch to the 2nd BIOS perhaps (why would it?). You might reflash by going straight to the flash memory pins but only if you could tell that you need to - or if you are paranoid enough and have the means.
Logging solves this problem. If OTel and observability is attempting to position itself as a better alternative to logging, it needs to solve the problems that logging already solves. I'm not going to use completely separate tools for logging and observability.

Also, "crash" here doesn't necessarily mean "segfault" or equivalent. It can also mean "hang and not finish (and thus not end the span)", or "have a network issue that breaks the ability to submit observability data" (but after an event occurred, which could have been submitted if OTel didn't wait for spans to end first). There are any number of reasons why a span might start but not finish, most of which are bugs, and OTel and tools built upon it provide zero help when debugging those.
I don't know why you're making it about Russian medicine, as I said I've only given this example to show there is interest in structured arrangements for dry fasting, I guess it backfired because those Russians are backwards pre-scientific primitives or something.

Well I'm drinking out of one now, and coke cans are way smaller than this, so tiny isn't the adjective I'd pick.

Doubt you're walking around with a gallon jug in your backpack either.

Honestly, if I had the time I'd be able to enjoy doing a lot more "menial" labor than I currently do. Living a simple life is nice, but because everything in modern society is tied to competition and the outcomes determine my standard of living, I am forced to constantly level up just to tread water.
I don’t know what “rationalizes” means, but more deaths don’t necessarily lower the dependency ratio.

For example, a war would kill lots of young healthy soldiers, leaving even fewer people in to care for the old, young, and infirm.

I’m guessing Ukrainian and Russian dependency ratios are getting worse and worse.

A USB-C port that only supports USB2 data and power only needs a few resistors across some pins to trigger legacy modes and disable high current/voltage operation. All the extra bits are the things that jack up the cost.

USB3 and altmodes require extra signal lines and tolerances in the cable.

High-voltage/current requires PD negotiation (over the CC pins AFAIK)

Data and power role swaps require muxes and dual-role controllers.

That's all the stuff that makes USB-C a pain in the ass, and it's all the sort of thing RPi Nanos don't support.

Show HN: Word2go – A word-learning app using browser notifications
Hi Hacker News,

I'm excited to share a project I've been working on: a web-based word learning app designed to help you effortlessly expand your vocabulary. If you're learning a new language, especially German, this might be just what you need.

What is it? This is a straightforward web application that leverages browser notifications to remind you of new words throughout the day. You upload a CSV file with your vocabulary list, and the app takes care of the rest. The notifications will pop up at intervals, displaying words and their translations to keep you engaged and learning.
The CSV can be very long, just put first row be the word and the next row same column be the translation
Built with JavaScript, utilizing the browser’s notification to deliver reminders.

reason of making
I created this app to make learning German more convenient and integrated into daily life. It’s an attempt to turn passive time into productive learning moments.

try it
You can upload a CSV file with your target vocabulary and start receiving notifications right away. The app is free to use and doesn't require any setup beyond uploading your word list.

If you have any feedback or feature requests, I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks for checking it out!

If photovoltaic cells can create power from radiation in the visible light range, I suppose there might be radiovoltaics that can do something similar. But I wonder if they can capture the high power fluxes from a modern core.
Some computation tasks can tolerate the latency if they’re written with enough overlap and can keep enough of the data resident, but they usually need more performant networking than this. See older efforts like rcuda for remote cuda over infiniband as an example. It’s not ideal, but sometimes worth it. Usually the win is in taking a multi-GPU app and giving it 16 or 32 of them rather than a single remote GPU though.
That's a specious example. If I'm showing your Super Bowl ad, I can't show anyone else's at the same time. Having one app available by a means doesn't make others unavailable.

And even then - the Super Bowl ad pricing is directly correlated to the number of users that ad will be delivered to.

All of that becomes even more emphasized if there's an alternate app store experience.
I think there is a benefit that it reduces possibility of misconfiguration. You can't accidentally publish .internal. If you see a .internal name, there is never any possibility of confusion on that point.

The subtle shift from actual sales to "below expectations" indicates they know that the exports rose and don't want to say that for some reason.

Ah true. I live in a hilly region so the water issues tend to be rain water moving down hill (which is really mostly laterally). In that situation the exterior drain solution works well, totally dry basement.

My MRIs are great because of all the "alternative" practices I did over the years, and it's not a new diagnosis either, usually at this stage people have a sizable amount of lesions. My last brain MRI came almost entirely clear, remarked upon by the doctor, with no signs of brain atrophy, which is almost unheard of at this point especially for someone not on a conventional immunosuppressant

I did do water fasts, dry fasts are simply more effective for the same time spend.

I do plan, not there yet because right now I'm focusing on building up exercise capacity and i'm also on high dose vitamin D for which it's recommended do drink lots of fluids, so I cut it out for a while and wait for my D levels to go down and when the weather permits I'll go at it again, probably on a whim which I find easier than setting a date beforehand.

I'm surprised by the mathematician's critiques of this book. I have a PhD in math and I read this book about 10 years ago now. I loved it. I'm sure there are some inaccuracies, but he gets the overall story correct. There's enough math in the book to be engaging for someone mathematically trained. There's also a lot more history than if you read a math book that just has proofs. And the book is entertaining in the way that DFW's books usually are. As a former mathematician I highly recommend.
That doesn't change the fact that it's not representative of how many lines something takes in python vs C++. If you replaced it with a call to native that used a third party library it would be back to being one line.

I think you are not doing this line of work justice.

Lattices like intervals or sets of values or zero/nonzero are typical and natural even without studying lots of theory.

I believe this paper is about how you can use the concept of a particular kind of lattice to give a rigorous mathematical semantics to possibly non terminating computations such as the untyped lambda calculus. This was not at all obvious before Scott. I don't feel qualified to comment much beyond that.

I suppose this is related to the simpler examples of lattices, but it's quite a feat.
