I think that all this really depends upon the game. Some are indeed designed to be more complex, yet in a good way. And there is a bit of a difference between a printed manual, and a wiki. I find that wikis often have solutions you're supposed to hunt for, where as a printed manual may tell a "story" of the land, and just give more generic "how to play" hints.

In this context, I am very much mystified by "I played through game Y in 2.5 hours!". Uh, what?! I just paid for this game, and my goal isn't to run directly to some arbitrary finish line. I want to see things. Explore things. Learn the story that is presented around me.

And I'm not referring to side-quests, although those are fun too. I mean, I've been in some games where there is just "stuff" in the world around me, and you can explore and find random info.

I'm referencing games such as "The Last of Us" re: PS3/2013 version, where you could look at newspaper boxes and make out headlines, something that didn't make it with the same legibility into the PS4 remake. (Newspapers were still to be found in the PS4 remake, but a lot of places where there were papers in newsboxes had legible headlines in the PS3 version, and just blurred stuff in the PS4 version).

To run a max speed through a game with all sorts of side-info, is like watching a plot laden movie at 5x on mute. What a waste of money, and joy.

Another example is Horizon Zero Dawn, where there were all sorts of interesting recordings to be found, and just random info to be gleamed about "what happened", regardless of other main/sub plot info. Again, to fast forward "yay I did this in 2 hours!" is madness in the extreme to me.

My point in the above is, that any sort of wiki requirement for these games is a solid ruin. What a way to reduce fun, if everything about the game, and things such as "how this world came about" is just laid out in a wiki.

Yet at the same time, I don't want all puzzles to be so easily solvable. I don't want my hand held. Imagine playing God of War, with all puzzles solvable in 1 second. Why even bother?

I wonder, there is often talk of great 'apathy' today in youth. Games are a part of youth. An example is 'hide and go seek', which in the real world teaches one how to be sneaky, how to think as another trying to hunt you, how to be clever, and just how to play with others. This game is teaching you to hunt, and to escape when being hunted!

Video games of my youth taught me puzzles, were difficult, required fast reflexes, and by no means did I think better gear was the answer to issues I was having.

Now games are often one dimensional. People look for the solve online before even playing. People have issues and 1 minute later are looking for a work around. When I was a kid, maybe I could find help by phoning a friend, but talk about embarrassing!

Yet with puzzles comes satisfaction when there is a solve.

And with easy answers, comes an empty feeling.

So back to the wiki or not, I really think there should be no wikis, because the potential for lost joy is massive.
Building housing close to things people need and use is preferable yeah.
I don’t think that’s a big problem though? Especially if you live in Germany and get a SIM card in e.g. Czech Republic.
But do they? Oxide targets the enterprise, and people there don't care that much about how the underlying OS works. It's been ten years since a RHEL release started using systemd and there has been no exodus to either Windows or Illumos.

I don't mean FUD in a disparaging sense, more like literal fear of the unknown causing people to be excessively cautious. I wouldn't have any problem with Oxide saying "we went for what we know best", there's no need to fake that so much more research went into a decision.
Classic Register reporting there, managing to turn what I assume is actually a fairly regular occurrence of having a meeting with companies they work closely with into a conspiracy. Of course the press aren't invited. Do MS often invite the press to sit in on meetings?
Where else in London are there pylons? (2022)
Takes me back... There was significant hype around those things when they first managed to build them at scale (~15 years ago), because they were promising for low power, high density persistent storage and are also academically interesting: The "concept" of memristors was explored over 50 years ago (they are passive components that couple electrical charge and magnetical flux, just like a resistor does with current/voltage, a capacitor with voltage/charge or an inductivity with current/flux).

But I think the main problem was that they never managed to scale up the clock speeds sufficiently, even though structure size (=> density) was already highly promising from the start.

Maybe in a slightly different history with some discoveries in different orders these could have replaced flash memory in SSDs completely.

But that whole episode thought me that betting on early technology is hard, and always a risky business, because no matter how promising an approach looks, if it turns out that you can not find the necessary improvements in only a single dimension, then the whole thing is kinda doomed and will probably never be competitive (=> a highly relevant insight especially when speculating about things like novel battery chemistries or the like).
I think you switched up the names
Video games used to have user manuals. Some were great and memorable! https://passo.uno/video-game-manuals-docs/
Bryan Cantrill also ported KVM to Illumos. At Joyent they had plenty of experience with KVM. See:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwAfJywzk8o

As far as I know, Bryan didn't personally work on the porting of bhyve (this might be wrong).

So if anything, that would point to KVM as the 'familiar' thing given how many former Joyant people were there.
I doubt the non-Pro PS5 is anywhere close to the RTX3080's performance.
This made me remember the Zany Golf bouncy burgers! The hours I spent there!
artificial != manufactured
Did you bother taking or trying some good probiotics and maybe prebiotics? How about L-glutamine, collagen hydrolysate, vitamin C, MSM, glucosamine, chondroitin? Also quercetin.

There is a newssurvey software that you can use to do some automated survey of what's out there (if you don't want to do it manually).

My experience with antibiotics has been the opposite, that they have saved me more times than one, but then I never used ciprofloxacin.
> Pokemon GO players spend hours, weeks, months happily repeating the same behaviors, over and over, without the need for additional content.

I honestly can't do it. This game is so shallow, I played it for two hours and felt like I've seen everything there is to see. Player's minds are incredibly different in the way they approach and consume media like that, including the willingness and ability to go through days of grinding for very small rewards.
If your sole reason for a car is long distance, and there's no scope for convenient half-hour or so supercharging, I think you're better off with gas.
Both David Chang and his staff are ridiculous.

Different parts of the bird take different times to cook, so for food quality, cooking a bird as a whole makes no sense: either the breasts are overcooked, or the thighs are undercooked. There is just one reason, which is that cooking the animal whole makes for an arresting presentation. Then, you'd carve the animal tableside (like is done for Peking duck, see one of the other comments).

This requires having waitstaff that can carve a bird or having cooks that are presentable to the guests, and extra space in the dining room.

Clearly, David Chang is taking a shortcut already by carving the chicken in the kitchen.
Joyent was using Solaris before Bryan worked there. Listen to the this podcast with Bryan and his co-founder about their origin story:

This is about as good as you are gone get on the topic of Joyant history.
And some will, but the majority that pay your bills will just use youtube or wikis or addons to just tell them what to do.

This cannot be true. It can't. If it is, I hope for us all.

What's the point of it then?! Why do they even play? What joy is derived?

I think I'll create an immersive headset where people have an overlay of someone vacuuming. Maybe then at least the world will be clean, while people just follow along on youtube demos.

I guess to complete it, I'll give a reward sound at each room, with bonus points for completeness and catching every crumb in the couch cushions. A little casino like 'ding', and a drop of 'reward bucks', which go onto a card you can use to buy real world things, like food.

My god, what have we all come to.

I guess this is where Idiocracy lands in our lap. Put on helmet, follow a GPT walk through on how to perform brain surgery, get reward points to buy food and housing.

Ask HN: What is the most expensive off-the-shelf software you have seen?
I’m curious what is the most expensive off-the-shelf software you have seen?

I expect the answer to be some obscure B2B CAD program? Or perhaps an RDMS?

I realise it can be hard to compare due to difference in pricing models - pay per seat, pay per month, pay one off - but I think we can still have a good discussion.
> "Buy our KVM Solution, we have KVM experts"

Of course, but that is less of unique selling point.

> But they evaluated that Bhyve was better then KVM despite that.

If you are selling Bhyve you better say that whether it's true or not. So why should I, as a reader or employee or customer, trust them?
Advanced friction logs: Empathy Sessions
How do you build that comparative advantage though? You think Japan or South Korea didn't have protectionist policies until they figured out how to produce such things competitively?
Tag soup hasn’t been a problem for years. The HTML 5 specification goes into a lot more detail than previous specifications when it comes to parsing malformed markup and browsers follow it. So no matter the quality of the markup, if you throw it at any HTML 5 implementation, you will get the same consistent, unambiguous DOM structure.

I also think this signals a change in how games are played these days.

There are many players that don't want to be challenged or explore, they want to complete tasks and get rewards. Some of them don't really care that much about the actual gameplay, as long as there is a quick way to complete sets of tasks and get their rewards.

Some of my friends are like this, they blast through games without looking at anything but the tasks and rewards and they hate having to figure things out, explore, discover and other road blocks to their "task list". They move at break neck speed too, like their lives depend on it. It's really hard to keep up, becasue they never stop at look at anything, but just rush to the next marker to finish the next task.

I had to actually stop playing certain types of games with them, because it would completely ruin the game for me.

I like exploring and discovering and figuring things out. If everything has an easy hint, marker, or otherwise shortcut that takes that away or discourages it, i would enjoy games a lot less.

An external wiki/youtube etc. gives you that choice when you need it, but it's far enough away that you can still enjoy those parts without using it.
I once caught a webdev doing frontend authentification with a plain javascript dialog. Yes, simple! Put the password in the JS, and do a simple comparison. Why did I notice? Because the owner of the lamp account contacted me that all their data was suddenly gone. Checked the logs, and yep, Google Bot clicked all the "Delete" links in their internal management view. Simply because JavaScript is opt-in :-) Called the developer and educated him on what he just did. I lost a lot of trust in web people that day.
Ironically I've heard Gordon Ramsey is actually a pretty swell guy despite the impression some of his shows give. You can see it when he's trying to genuinely empathize with the people on kitchen nightmares and actually help them, or when he goes to a place like remote India to try any chutney and he's being extremely respectful to the local culture. He gets passionate and angry but there's little condescension unless you're a professional chef who should know better and he's playing it up for the camera.
Rust error handling is perfect
They had turnover of £39m last year and profits of £5.5m (double the previous year, quite good for a UK business of this scale). If they don't have full time devs it'll be shocking, certainly had the money to sort crap like this out
Add a rootless concept to it to represent the OEM state.

(E.g. in MacOS where /usr/local represents user changes, if it's deleted, the OS is back in OEM state)

Android actually came pretty close to this, if you ignore the vendor messups when it comes to partitioning.

Due to lack of alternatives, my current "secure deployment" strategy is to use containers that have only a kernel, no shell, and "CGO_enabled=0" go binaries that don't link against C libraries. Even if they segfault it's close to impossible to guess the offsets correctly to be able to create an exploit for it.

The only attack surface left is what's mounted in the container, and you have full control over that.

But applying this to a desktop system is the hard part. QubedOS has nice ideas, but is unusable by unexperienced users.

Something like a distro that makes it a first priority to ship apparmor and selinux profiles for every package might be a way to get there, but it's a huge load of work.
Don't worry. People are naturally skeptical when they see high quality content it feels like "advertorial".

It's clear you are just sharing your experience of using the Unifi products/ecosystem and setting up an impressive home-lab.
I was taken aback that an individual would spend almost $6k on their private home network. But you're clearly not short of a penny so why not spend it on having a kickass network? ;-)

I'm sure other successful software engineers have similar setups / investments; they just don't share them in public.
What's the difference between this and the free cloth that comes with loads of stuff for wiping lenses etc? Is it just the apple logo?
I see the same thing happening in the hardware language space. There exists a large amount of gatekeeping by people who believe that Verilog/VHDL can ever only be the one true language. So research into alternative languages die. And interfaces are obfuscated behind the language.
To be clear I didn't say men never use any of these words individually (except for "spidey senses" I suppose).

Just that their frequent and combined usage in this particular article made me almost hear her voice in my head, including the female cadence and intonation...

No one hires someone to test what happens when a bridge is shot with a missile from 6000 miles away. The bridge "works" in the same way that the software "works".
I do use AI support. Locally hosted though and no copilot. It just supports me, but I do write my code myself.

What I see is that new programmers do use it extensively though and if the service is down they often remain helpless. Still think it is a very good support in the beginning as long as some knowledge remains retained, which it very likely will.
The underlying hyperwiser on oxide isn't exposed to the consumers of the API. Just like on Amazon.

I think arguably the bhyve over KVM was the more fundamental reason, and bhyve doesn't run on linux anyway.
I think it’s about hate speech but the OP doesn’t know that UK!= EU.

For example in the UK you may get jail time if you say a transgender girl is actually boy or whatever.
See here one famous case:
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna146065

That being said free speech is being eroded in the EU as well but the UK is “leading” that.

For example the EU tries for some time to mandate backdoors into encrypted chat applications.

> But it's not a real concurrent backend database. It's a client-side database

People are successfully using it server-side, in specific situations it appears to be a good fit.

> You can accidentally write a string to an int column

Yes, you need more validation logic client-side in exchange for the performance gain.
It's a trade-off, not a black/white distinction. A strongly typed language can help here.

The more I think about the less I am completely against this approach.

Instead of applying an obscure set of heuristic by hand, let the LM figure out the best way starting from a lot of data.

The model is bound to be less debuggable and much more difficult to update, for experts.

But in the general case it will work well enough.

I remember that too; I was very, very interested, but it never materialized. Very disappointing.

That said, I think this is something a bit different, or at least a different application. If my translation of the summary is correct (I'm not very fluent in sciencese), it's basically using them as some kind of matrix multiplier rather than memory. Whether they're making use of power-off data retention at all was unclear to me, but then I just skimmed it.

Interesting, but I was really hoping for fast, persistent memory to appear.
Do they have charging stations?

I don't have an EV in Southern Europe because there are hardly any charging stations and as we live in apartments you can't charge it at home either as the communal parking doesn't have a charging station.
This is actually quite a good point. A single person taking shortcuts is not bad, but certain things are done in a particular way for good reason.

One shortcut today is another tomorrow and the day after. It's not about the single person either, but rather the culture itself.

Now this is different from improving processes or efficiencies. The incentives and motivations also matter. Take a large group 1 hour before the restaurant closes. For the staff, it's shit, why didn't they come earlier. But for the restaurant it's great news, more money and potential repeat customers.
Thank you, I will watch that right away :)
Proof is in the pudding, as they say.

The post frames this as corporate hypocrisy. I'd argue it's wider than that, everything is a brand and PR with the internet. It extends to individuals, though not necessarily this one

The more connected 'we' are the less I trust. Agendas within agendas. My circle has become a dot.
Yeah I think VS is a good example. I did a similar thing - just discovering some things, and having the wiki as a reference for others.

I was confused by the title, by "Ring-2" it means "Ring -2" (minus two), which is "traditionally" SMM (System Management Mode), a horrible relic that lets your BIOS/UEFI silently steal the CPU from the OS to implement janky drivers or workarounds directly in the firmware (occasionally causing all sorts of mayhem).

(Actual Ring 2 is very rarely seen, so perhaps I should have known!)
I am currently playing the masterpiece Baldur's gate 3. You can totally do it without any prior knowledge, not looking at tips or how to solve some quests.

But - you can easily mess up things for good in the story, sometimes its not clear in dialogs how big consequences may be, sometimes decisions from far past affect matters and story will go in directions you don't want. Its absolutely massive game in terms of decision trees and consequences. And without any prior knowledge one will miss many if not most not-in-your-sight mechanics and connections. The creativity with ie various fighting approaches you can find in reddit is mind-boggling. Seeing some characters die because you missed something is pretty common too and it pisses me off.

Some people love playing it 3x through, or even more, getting better, playing with 1 character only. I have family, work, tons of passions so this is just a small time effort for me, I will never spend enough time to get really good at 3rd playthrough, I just grew up from such gaming and found more interesting stuff in our very short lives, to not end up later with deep regrets.

Larian studios were smart enough to offer very generous saving system (heck you can save even mid fights, generally unheard of) and overall there is a lot of confidence their gameplay is very robust regardless how casual / hardcore gamer are you. And it works, dammit it works so well, no matter the approach.

This is mechanics I can totally respect. In contrary, when authors force me to play only how they want and punish or block you for everything else, it shows me how shallow and unbalanced gameplay is, how little they trust it. Not everybody can do games like Larian, but sure as hell I wish they could.
My brother made:

Basically, it's utility which completes commandline for you

While playing with it, we thought about creating a custom small model for this.

But it was really limiting! If we use small model trained on MAN pages, bash scripts, stack overflow and forums etc...

We miss the key component, using a larger model like flash is more effective as this model knows lot more about other things.

For example, I can ask this model to simply generate a command that lets me download audio from a youtube url.
And parsing text is quite foundational. Although today I would need to think hard to find a language, where you don't have a ready to use XML/JSON parser ready at hand.

Perhaps there is no reference implementation in Pancake Stack, but your language has to be quite arcane to not have something available.
