> Well, maybe that's exactly what should happen. Maybe rust should have never been allowed in the kernel in the first place.

Can you clarify these two sentences? You say there should be a memory-safe kernel, and then you say Rust should never have been allowed, which is the opposite.
Of course, it is not generalizable! In my experience though, most minifiers do only the following:

- Whitespace removal, which is trivially invertible.

- Comment removal, which we never expect to recover via unminification.

- Renaming to shorter names, which is tedious to track but still mechanical. And most minifiers have little understanding of underlying types anyway, so they are usually very conservative and rarely reuse the same mangled identifier for multiple uses. (Google Closure Compiler is a significant counterexample here, but it is also known to be much slower.)

- Constant folding and inlining, which is annoying but can be still tracked. Again, most minifiers are limited in their reasoning to do extensive constant folding and inlining.

- Language-specific transformations, like turning `a; b; c;` into `a, b, c;` and `if (a) b;` into `a && b;` whenever possible. They will be hard to understand if you don't know in advance, but there aren't too many of them anyway.

As a result, minified code still remains comparably human-readable with some note taking and perseverance. And since these transformations are mostly local, I would expect LLMs can pick them up by their own as well.

(But why? Because I do inspect such programs fairly regularly, for example for comments like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39066262)

Yes, turns out I was the one who made the mistake.

I updated the article to reflect the mistake.

> Update (2024-08-29): Initially, I thought that the LLM didn’t replicate the logic accurately because the output was missing a few characters visible in the original component (e.g., ). However, a user on HN forum pointed out that it was likely a copy-paste error.

>

> Upon further investigation, I discovered that the original code contains different characters than what I pasted into ChatGPT. This appears to be an encoding issue, as I was able to get the correct characters after downloading the script. After updating the code to use the correct characters, the output is now identical to the original component.

Much the same in the UK.

In the 1970s the BBC news programmes gave huge amounts of air time to Greenpeace and CND. Greenham Common and CND being given the most coverage.

When the only source of information is a daily newspaper, or nightly news programmes, a huge number of people can be influenced by whatever a channel like the BBC was broadcasting.

Unlike today where you can read wikipedia (!) or switch to one of a hundred other channels and simply just not watch the news.

TV set the agenda back then, and the course of nuclear sentiment for a few decades.

My experience scaling up Rails (mostly in size of codebase NOT in size of traffic) really made me love typesafe languages.

IDE smartness (auto complete, refactoring), compile error instead of runtime, clear APIs...

Kotlin is a pretty nice "Type-safe Ruby" to me nowadays.
An interesting use-case of this capability is refactoring, which, for me, ChatGPT has been unmistakably good at. It's amazing how I can throw garbage code I wrote at ChatGPT, ask it to refactor, and get clean code that I can use without worrying if it's going to work or not, because in 99% of cases it works without breaking anything.
Good news, so we can run deepseekv2 using 12G GPU
Carta. Is part of their package and is very well regarded.
This really sets the government up for failure. The next time there's a tragedy on our rail system the question I'm going to ask is "Would this have happened if the person in charge took safety concerns seriously". This just makes Hendy's position totally untenable.
Wait, is this post about SQL or PDF...
The system is what it does. And that's the system.
Well then raise these concerns and find a way to solve them together. Not dismiss a proven solution to real and even dangerous problems like memory unsafety.

It's unreasonable for educated grown men to react like 12yo children and resist change cause "we don't like eating our vegetables even though they are good for our health". If you actually care about the Linux kernel you will find a way forward even if that means communicating with people or even changing habits.

At the end of the day I don't think that the people that are contributing to the Linux Kernel do it out of good will but rather more about than prestige and building a resume. Or else we wouldn't have this resistance to progress.
1. Use a reliable and separate FOSS router like a physical OPNsense (Deciso DEC740 or DEC850).

2. Use above router to VLAN (or use a physically-separate interface and network topology) and isolate less trusted devices.
That's much better in that most of the original code remains present and comments are not that far off, but its understanding of global variables are utterly wrong (to be expected though, as many of them serve multiple purposes).

I went to Blackbox because its UI elements were smaller (title bars are more narrow, no 64x64 dock icons) which gave me more real estate on my 1024x768 monitor. I then migrated to Openbox because that had more active development at the time.

This article introduces how to conduct feature engineering for model training and prediction in DolphinDB. Inspired by the 1st place solution of the time series prediction competition Kaggle Optiver Realized Volatility Prediction, we propose a solution applicable to both batch and stream processing in DolphinDB to fit in comprehensive machine learning application scenarios. The comparison shows that DolphinDB delivers about 30x performance improvement than Python pandas.
I want to emphasize for others how important this comment is. I live in suburban Atlanta and last month the AC failed. Can you guess what day and time it failed? Yep, 8AM on 96F/70% humidity SUNDAY. And we moved into this f*cking old house a year earlier after moving across the country so no local knowledge of contractors. After about 15 minutes in google maps I call up my best guess based entirely on internet vibes. After some hemming and hawing which is best described as a verbal biopsy of my wallet ("it's going to be $200 for showing up") the dude shows up. We get to talking as one does (I DIY everything) and he says I'll show you how to fix it, it's very likely the capacitor is the problem.

So he unscrews the panel, pulls off the leads, puts in the new capacitor and voila.
Then the guy says basically exactly what the above para starting with "A capacitor issue...", including hosing down the coils.

So in 10 minutes I learned another mandatory skill on a Sunday morning, and it only cost $675. (Yes I know better than to place my tongue across the capacitor connectors)

Last year I fixed the condensate drain line clog myself, by uh, well, I was in a hurry, blowing into the pretty grotty drain line. I did purchase the exact model pump for a spare.

I still need to buy a spare capacitor though!

What’s the density difference and lifespan between dual layer Blu-Ray (50 GB) and the latest tape standard (multiple TB)? On the surface, I’d think tape is denser and lasts longer. Not to mention that tape is reusable.
> Facebook has built a storage system from 10,000 Blu-ray discs that holds a petabyte of data...

One petabyte may have looked impressive in 2014 but is it still (honestly asking, it's not rhetorical)? A friend of mine has got 200 TB in his homelab. That's one fifth of the way there.

One petabyte is definitely within reach of an individual nowadays. Granted, it's only HDDs and not Blu-ray discs, but it's still a manageable amount.

Now as to why an individual would fill that is another topic: scientific data or options trading data or the various blockchain transactions data (including what's happening on the "L2" chains/sidechains) would quickly fill that, for example. But that is not my point.

Is one petabyte a lot? What would be a lot today?

For although 10 000 Blu-ray discs is something, 100 000 or one million discs to manage is something else altogether.

This is pretty simple to solve for. Eg. Have the app provide an ID the customer can quote to the CS rep; Have the app also log this ID, along with the system it's being run on, to the cloud/an interface that pops up an "unsupported system" message to the CS agent on entering the ID.
This is something I always disagreed with. In my experience, I rather read a short comment explaining what is the purpose of a block of code, than trying to decipher it. Yes, code "should speak for itself", but reading a comment is almost always faster than reading blocks of code.
And then there is also documentation (if you include it in what you define as comment). I much rather go through a website, with a search function, example, description, made with some docgen tool, than having to go through a library or programming language source code every time I need to remember how to do X, or if object B has implement function Y ...
> Chrome will instead hallucinate what that website should have looked like

I find the term 'bullshits' to be more apt than 'hallucinate'.

As something of an aside; that the purveyors of AI use the latter, whereas those who interact with it use the former, speaks volumes.
To quote Schopenhauer (English translation):
```
But space and time are not only, each for itself, presupposed by matter, but a union of the two constitutes its essence, for this, as we have seen, consists in action, i.e., in causation
```

That's the kind of thinking that could help Einstein formulate an idea of "spacetime"
Yes absolutely. I think harmonizing with things around you is part of good taste. It's one of the things that separates for example a professionally designed interior from a college dorm room filled with an eclectic array of things the occupants like.
I can see some ways to use this and easily check that the LLM is not hallucinating parts of it, because you can ask the LLM to unminify (or deobfuscate) some component, then request unit tests to be written by the LLM, then humanly check that the unit tests are meaningful and that they don't miss things on the unminified code, then run the tests on the original minified version to confirm the LLM's work, maybe set up some mutation testing if it is relevant.
That’s already the concept of insulin pumps. The problem currently is that subcutaneous insulin takes too long to work to be very precise, and also, pumps don’t have a concept of carb intake. They try to predict whether automatic doses are need based on trends. Also, typical blood glucose for a non-diabetic person is 85 mg/dL. This is fairly close to the line of hypoglycemia, which is under 70, so automated pumps aim to keep glucose somewhat higher. For the Tandem T:Slim, it attempts to maintain 110, for instance. I am not familiar with most of the drugs listed there but I suspect their action would be far too slow to work very well in that regard.
I can't tell yet if I'll actually end up using this in practice, but it's pretty well implemented.

The memo is stored as another email in the "Memos" folder as a reply to the message being memoed, so the data will be backed up naturally by any email backup and does show up, in a sort-of-awkward way, in other non-Fastmail mail clients.

In the Fastmail client, the memo shows up, highlighted, in the message list before the normal message snippet, and at the top of the message when you edit the message.

Seems pretty well thought-out.

Something related from the og computer scientist, though does their new result have impacts on the quantum zeno effect?

[I]t is easy to show using standard theory that if a system starts in an eigenstate of some observable, and measurements are made of that observable N times a second, then, even if the state is not a stationary one, the probability that the system will be in the same state after, say, one second, tends to one as N tends to infinity; that is, that continual observations will prevent motion. Alan and I tackled one or two theoretical physicists with this, and they rather pooh-poohed it by saying that continual observation is not possible. But there is nothing in the standard books (e.g., Dirac's) to this effect, so that at least the paradox shows up an inadequacy of Quantum Theory as usually presented.
— Quoted by Andrew Hodges in Mathematical Logic, R. O. Gandy and C. E. M. Yates, eds. (Elsevier, 2001), p. 267.

> As a result of Turing's suggestion, the quantum Zeno effect is also sometimes known as the Turing paradox.

What language(s), out of interest?
I think long term, FreeBSD may lose out if Rust in the base system is not supported. Note the 'may'. It is hard to predict the future in this regard.

Where I work, we have some open source C code that is also in the FreeBSD base system. We have decided to create new code in Rust and look into deprecating the C code. Obviously, the FreeBSD project can just take over maintenance of the C code, but that will be burden to the project.

Note the 'may' and 'long term'. But for a project like FreeBSD it is good to look at Rust before it becomes an issue.

A more silent problem, it is quite possible that Rust programmers are less likely to contribute to a project that is based on C and C++ where Rust is not welcome. Certainly when new code is needed, that group will wonder why it needs to be written in C or C++.
Even if poverty contributed to disorderly behavior, you would expect to see more such behavior in poorer places, and you generally don’t. NYC’s bottom quantile income is $27,000 or below. That’s significantly higher than the median (purchasing power adjusted) income in Thailand. Bangkok public transit is incredibly nice compared to NYC. Nobody jumping turnstiles, no graffiti, nobody talking loudly in train cars, no homeless people or aggressive drug users in train cars, etc.

Public disorder is primarily a sociological and cultural problem, not an economic one.

> and you joined HN in 2023

I joined in 2013 but that account got shadowbanned during the pandemic when I suggested it was bad practice for the Twitter leadership to ban people who did not follow the desired narrative while they allowed Iran's Khamenei, the Taliban's Zabiullah Mujahid and other similar malcontents to spout propaganda on their site. I did this by linking to a post on Ben Shapiro's 'The Daily Wire' which seemed to be enough to get banned.

Do you now understand why it is important that services allow people to venture beyond the desired narrative?

> so, you know, Плевать, ватник.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatnik

A 'Vatnik' is a jingoistic follower of government propaganda, one who uncritically follows whatever the government pushes. I think this is quite fitting given the context of this discussion, probably not in the way you intended but fitting nevertheless.

Which refutes your assertion of no potential copyright violation.

Why even build those warnings in, if you're going to make your own mechanics ignore them.

Funny. Evidence collected from Lava Jato is illegal. But Telegram messages collected by a hacker and whose authenticity was not confirmed, were normally used to free corrupt individuals from jail.

Furthermore, who provoked the Supreme Court to censor this article? Or was it something ex officio? If the Supreme Court was provoked, why didn't they choose another rapporteur for the case? Allowing the case to be judged by the supposed "victim" violates some basic precepts of law.
