Thanks for the answer. I learned that the backend is implemented in Clojure, so presumably de-serializing JSON means client-side queries trivially become Clojure data usable for databases like Datomic, Datascript, etc.

I noticed Postgres is used as the storage layer for Instant's triple store. I'm still curious why making a custom triple store over using e.g. XTDB v1. Like Instant's data store, XTDB is schemaless, and it features a Datalog engine capable of basic query planning. For instance, the order of where clauses doesn't negatively impact performance, unlike Datomic. What were the show stoppers in adopting solution like XTDB?

If I’m a CEO I’m not going to be trying to impress the same crowd that hates the very thing that my most valuable company is built on. It’s basically unhinged and I think I’d probably step down if ever came down from my twitter high long enough to take a look around at the burning room. I am by no means a “make money at all costs” person but this had become a huge violation of the fiduciary duty of the CEO

Quoting Windows Internals 7th Edt Part 1:

There is an unfortunate side effect of large pages. Each page (whether huge, large, or small) must be mapped with a single protection that applies to the entire page. This is because hardware memory protection is on a per-page basis. If a large page contains, for example, both read-only code and read/write data, the page must be marked as read/write, meaning that the code will be writable. As a result, device drivers or other kernel-mode code could, either maliciously or due to a bug, modify what is supposed to be read-only operating system or driver code without causing a memory access violation.
The old control panel has a very logical layout, and that's why it stayed this way for so long. But it was also an expert tool and you ought to go there with the manual close at hand because it was so powerful. Like the networks sections having everything related to network thay you may want. Maybe there should be a beginner mode, but you don't want a beginner near those settings. Just like I rarely see people go into their network connection settings on iOS. The rewrite feels like taking Photoshop and morph it into Paint. Easier to understand but ultimately worthless.
> Another reason, and this is something that most people born after about the year 2000 and later don't know, is that Microsoft worked really hard and with a very hostile attitude against the distribution of Linux.

Moreover, if you inform them about this, they treat you like a crazy old man shaking his fist at the clouds. Like, don't you know Microsoft contributes to the kernel and runs Github for the benefit of personkind?

I disagree here. Mostly because people have very wrong expectation on CPU improvement. Largely distorted by media and Apple in the news cycle.

Zen 5 brings ~13% for integer and ~25% for Floating Point performance increase for the current code, while lowering power usage on the same node compared to Zen 4. If we were to measure power / performance the Zen 5 is easily 25% to 50% uplift.

And it is also ignoring two things. Zen 5 was largely designed for 3nm in the first place. Some of the things for 4nm could be argued as not optimal as it should be. Second being Zen 5 was a ground up design and layering the foundation for Zen 6 and Zen 7.

I dont know if it was a missed opportunity in messaging. If I were to judge tech news circle from HN, Reddit, and most popular media. Hard core nerds that used to care and studying CPU Hardware changes are largely gone. All the details about front and back end design, Core to Core latency, things that Anandtech and other media that does deep dive into it no longer gets any views. And all that consumer cares if whether they could get higher performance, or more core.

So I guess it is a mixed AMD not doing good enough in marketing and media generally dont want to talk about things that dont interest their reader.

And then finally, AMD really cares about datacenter market, more so than consumer. Which is where Zen 5 is good at.
I say that because I’ve had extensive GPU bills credited or forgiven before.

Alright, so I have a project that is mostly abandoned right now due to various other obligations.

The main goal was to contact car owners without having to have their phone numbers and such. But i quickly saw the advantage of tagging all sort of things. So I have it on my keychain, wallet, or several other things I own. If I lose these items, any stranger can contact me without having any of my personal contacts.

What is it? It's a QR code. You scan it, and you can send some prewritten notifications to the owner. Once they reply, you can have a conversation. Scanning captures the gps location both for security measures and to help recover it.

Landing page is totally misleading, I had big plans, but changing diapers took priority.
That sounds exactly like a scroll area. For example Dear ImGui has scrolling based on a draw list which will be clipped to the current visible area. Nothing stopping adding panning and zoom controls for this. In fact I saw mouse panning added in one of the ImColorTextEdit forks. Maybe Dear Imgui doesn't have a "zoom" feature built-in, but I don't imagine that being hard to implement. Just additional scaling and clipping to the draw list.
I didn’t say it will sell as much as MacBook Pros as soon as it hits $2000.

The article isn't describing anything related to knowledge unless they mean that as a euphemism for knowledge of the unwritten social signals for how to to advertise your class (which isn't even the main thing). This is talking about cultural capital. Like financial capital, families can accumulate it over several generations.

Particularly for CEO-style jobs which are relatively close to modern aristocrats - there isn't any special knowledge floating around generationally. CEO skills aren't even hereditary. Being recognised as being in the pool of people who are expected to be CEOs is though.

Ukraine has been moving into Russia lately.

They’ll retake it at the current pace, but it takes time.

Part of the reason why it isn’t discussed though is 1) Russia gets really freaked out about it, and 2) it’s (somewhat) in Western interests for Ukraine to not ‘win’.

The longer this drags out, the more fucked Russia is. (Also Ukraine long term, but eggs need to be broken to make an omelette!). And from a western perspective, this is a remarkably cheap proxy war.

If we don’t count the damage Russia is doing to us through propaganda and social media manipulation anyway.

From an NTFS auditing perspective, there’s no difference between auditing a non-EFS file or EFS file. Knowing that file auditing works just fine having done it many times, what makes you say it doesn’t work?
This is definitely one of those companies I would love to see be completely taken down. We need to revise monopoly and cartel laws because I suspect the current Supreme Court will not see eye-to-eye with the DOJ on this as they are strict textualists now. If the law doesn’t say “cartel by intention of digital equivalency” or something else descriptive I don’t think SCOTUS will bite any longer or apply common sense interpretation as any good judge should.

The Quest 2 has minimal inter-pupillary distance (IPD) adjustment — only three fixed options. If your eyes don’t match closely enough to one of them, it can be very uncomfortable. Mine don’t, and I have the same experience as you, but I can put up with it for short bursts. More expensive headsets have much better lenses and adjustment options. It’s not an inherent problem with VR, just concessions to make a cheap device.

Having a function simply not exist can not count towards making it more intuitive to control that function.

Having simple controls that don't accomplish tasks is not a valid example of simple controls to accomplish tasks, and I'm shocked at anyone here not seeing it.

If this theory of the users needs were true, then everyone would and should just use Chromebooks.

The reason Windows exists and must be used by so many even when they don't want to, why a Chromebook or an iPad doesn't cut it, is Windows is where all the actual unimaginably varied productivity and special purpose software is. Not because of the middle of the road generic office and web apps. It's because of those PLUS the infinite other. It takes both to be useful not just the big mass in the middle of the bell curve.

No matter how much bigger the numbers are for the common case, things need to cover all cases in order to be useful. Trying to reduce Windows down to a Chromebook or an iPad is silly when the Windows95 paradigm was already the simplification.

Windows without the functionality of Windows is nothing. An iPad is far better at that than a simplified Widows can ever be. Even if somehow MS managed to make an excellent iPad, then what? iPads already exist and someone else is famous for them. Meanwhile, the thing they ripped out was their very value proposition itself. The differentiator that gives them a reason to exist at all.

All that supposedly unwanted complicated stuff was litterally the primary value and differentiator of the product itself.

You're getting close to my point
Immediate mode and polling are not the same thing. With Dear ImGui you own the event loop so you can draw as frequently or infrequently as you want. It is not necessary to draw 60 times per second when nothing is happening.

Dear ImGui's sample code currently does draw every frame even when nothing is happening. Omar has said that he would eventually like to change this and it's on his roadmap, but it's low priority because he is currently targeting game industry users and doesn't want to attract a lot more users in other areas that will add to his support load and dilute his focus. [1]

He also has said the same thing about accessibility and fancy theming. These features are good examples of why "the stuff that dear-imgui does" is not a good definition of immediate mode. People often assume that anything Dear Imgui doesn't do is hard or impossible for any immediate mode API, but that's far from the truth.

Omar is only one guy. He has a target audience in mind and is not trying to satisfy all use cases at once. You have to remember that when comparing Dear ImGui to a framework like Qt or SwiftUI or whatever that has hundreds if not thousands of developers contributing to it.

I'm not surprised to see all the negative reactions. The old stuff was pure Win32 and thus very efficient in many ways. The new stuff is all UWP from what I understand (and UWP is itself supposedly deprecrated for several years now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28932345), and much more abstracted and inefficient despite still being native code(?)

I still remember the first time I opened Settings and saw a loading screen, which spent over a second to load a UI that somehow looks even less complete than the one in Windows 1.0, on a system with several orders of magnitude faster CPU and more RAM:

Specifically Windows 11? Is that due to bugs, or intentional redesign?
My most frustrated moment was discovering that windows 11 requires a network connection to set it up. It blocks on the user creation screen until you decide to add a microsoft account or create a new one. There's no other OS I know of that does the same thing.

That's entirely the wrong set of questions to ask. It is scientifically validated which is what matters as far as the truth is concerned.
We could have secure computers, if we adopted capability based security en masse, but that's highly unlikely. I don't see us all running Genode or Hurd any time soon.

Because we, and the public, don't have secure computers, we're always under threat from any code we run, and any sites we use. This leads us inevitably to walled gardens, where we effectively outsource our security concerns. This has horrible consequences for Democracy, but we put up with them.

Until we fix the root issue, faster connectivity will just mean more content "consumed" by the public, and power concentrated into fewer and fewer hands.

---

On the plus side, if we all had our own secure servers, we could all have a Memex, as envisioned almost 80 years ago. We'd have our own copies of everything, and be able to spool them off for anyone as an act of sharing. We'd all have our own Library of Alexandria.

Of course, that doesn't sit well with the rentier class, so it's unlikely as well. 8(
Seems to be just a rumor, but one that I hope is true. I also hope they use it as an opportunity to finally fix the longstanding ugly wart of having Live Photos be a separate .MOV file sitting alongside the HEIC file. JPEG XL is a container format so it should be possible to include the MOV as a separate box alongside the jxlc data and exif metadata. Of course, HEIF had the same capability and they still didn’t use it.
You have to read the prospectus to know whether or not this is misleading.

The cease and desist fine (about 900 euros these days) is what the lawyer wants. Max return on investment for a single letter. You don’t have to react to this letter which will bring about the second letter with the generous offer to pay less, this repeats until around 340 Euro are reached.

Then you may get a court order that states what the lawyer accuses you of and this you have to react to. The court just states this and gives you 2 checkboxes. If you check the one saying “I reject the accusation completely” the lawyer needs to decide. He invested some 40 euros into the court order but going to court is a different ballgame and not his main business model so they have to weigh the chances.

The owner of the router that the file went through is responsible for access to the router. Since the owner has so far not said anything to his Defence there is a possibility that multiple people including family members had access to the router and the lawyer might, in court, be presented with a list of people and their addresses which satisfies the defendants task to erschütter the accusation for the court and leave the lawyer with the option to figure out whodunnit or rather who in the list is going to fold and pay.

This is really not his business model. That said they do go to court and people get sentenced to pay the fine.

That's just wishful thinking, but I wish there was a way to license the NT kernel and other core OS components. That way, other companies could work to add usable and performant userspace components to their version of Windows, with users finally being relieved of dealing with the batshit crazy UI and other warts Microsoft keeps on adding.
What drives me nuts is that even though Windows is the only os I have paid for it's also the only os I use which doesn't include full disk encryption (unless I pay even more). Linux is free and comes with it. Macos is freeish and comes with it. Windows home costs over $100 and doesn't. Those built in ads are also ironic.
