The trade off is reduced throughput. How much depends a lot on the system and workload.
Gaza looks like the aftermath of a major WWII battle, and it has been that way for years because of an air/sea/land blockade that prevents efforts to rebuild. Not just the residential buildings are destroyed, but also water/energy infrastructure. Due to the demographics of Gaza, this mostly impacts women and children. So, it is undeniable that Israel bombed infrastructure knowing that it is mostly women and children who will be harmed.

Putin absolutely 100% does not do that kind of bombing in Ukraine. Even contested cities do not look 1/10th as bad ad Gaza. And he has helped cities such as Mariupol rebuild...

I suppose if we’re assuming that overturning thermodynamics is the byline, such a machine could exist without being a perpetual motion machine if somehow the energy that produces the machine’s work was lost as say… nuclear radiation instead of heat?

Or perhaps requiring some kind of catalyst that is rendered into a higher energy state which is functionally useless for its purpose as said catalyst?

Either way, we’ve got some interesting sci-fi concepts to work with!

I didn't read your link, but if political speech has to be honest then I'm sure all of the politicians in Brazil are going to have their speech censored, right?
So you think only government censorship is a speech violation?

Well cool! You'll happen to be on the right side in this case, because in this case the censor is a government.

Over 20 years ago I worked with some specialized commercial software, Cyclone, that did guaranteed delivery of files. Guaranteed as in the legal sense. If the server sent back a ticket number to the sending client, it was a LEGAL assurance that the file was received, because there was a contract in place with financial penalties. The time stamps were particularly important in the legal contract. So, there are a lot of ways you can have exactly-once delivery, especially when talking about the application level of the 7 layer burrito model.

A loved one in my family was sick for years with a very painful chronic illness and all of the tests were completely useless except to rule out a myriad of possible causes. Thankfully she did happen upon a very effective treatment (Zoloft) and her quality of life is immensely improved now, with basically zero pain, and she’s able to function again. It was devastating to her health and she had nothing to go on whatsoever.

I don't think it's reinventing the wheel, since Vulkan was ready quite a bit after d3d12 but yeah I guess maybe it could be the standard on windows after d3d12 becomes obsolete...

But that's going to be in quite a while since I can't think of an actual feature (for end users) that is missing from one vs the other right now.

Everything on Windows already uses d3d12/DirectX basically so it would actually be a huge wheel reinvention to migrate to a standard just for the sake of it.
Sure, somethings are actually misinformation. Nobody is denying that. The problem is giving the government the ability to determine what is and isn't misinformation.

If [politican you don't like] had the power to consider his misinformation to be truthful and truthful information to be misinformation would you still be in support of this? He could supress all the negative information about him calling it misinformation and prevent his misinformation from being banned.
> Let me add a simple icon to toggle control wifi (...) There’s a single toggle for mobile data, a single toggle for Bluetooth, a single toggle for airplane mode, and a single toggle for personal hotspot. No wifi. Why? Why Apple? You added a fucking single toggle for Print Centre.

This is, in my view, the single most baffling omission in the new control center. It's fully customizable now, but doesn't have an individual toggle for Wifi???

This also leaves off the other terrible decision: the way icons reorder themselves randomly when you reposition things. Want to swap the positions of the brightness and volume controls? Prepare for literally everything to become shuffled for seemingly no reason].

Some ISP terms are more reasonable than others. Not running a commercial data operation on a residential contract is one of the more reasonable ones; they clearly have commercial contracts available, you know why people who run lease-your-upload-bandwidth-for-money software aren’t choosing them. Both the people running the apps and the ones encouraging them to do so are questionable here, and the former may not be fully aware of the consequences (I personally know someone who got throttled then eventually banned by their ISP this way) whereas the latter would know.

Btw, no I don’t pirate movies (I do sometimes torrent content I already bought because I don’t like the official player). Again, your ethical standard is different from mine, and mine different from people who don’t torrent at all, for instance.

For starters it's security theater, given everyone and their dog prefixes sudo to all commands without much thinking. There are also some who just smash in sudo -i as the first thing they ever do upon boot (guilty as charged) because they suffer RSI from typing sudo a trillion times.

There's also this impression that the operating system is just secure and you as the user are just protected like it's a law of physics. Spoiler alert, you are not and it's not a law of physics either. It's still your responsibility to secure the computer if you so desire and otherwise not do dumb shit like copypasta'ing commands from the internet.

I'm not even going to get into the politics that are package managers and repos, that's just straight bullshit that has more to do with human nature than computer science.

Speaking of politics, most of the FOSS community at large hates users using and administrators administering computers how they want. You must subscribe to the One Libre Way(tm) or you are a heathen doing it wrong. So much for freedom. The Windows community meanwhile is mostly composed of jaded engineers who are just happy to see others get stuff done and get through another day in one piece.

Windows from the start places the user at the controls with mostly no child safety locks in place (and you can remove what is there easily, eg: UAC), and with that power you have to accept that if you end up hosing the system the problem is you because Windows doesn't even pretend to really protect you.

Having the sheer power to hose Windows with a single Powershell line is what freedom is. Freedom is both delightful and horrifying.

Ask HN: What tasks are part of your daily work routine?
Every morning, I check Grafana logs and metrics for abnormal spikes. If there are any issues, I send them to the CS team. It is a bit tedious.

I'm curious about other people's daily/weekly/monthly routine tasks. What repetitive work do you do regularly? How long does it take? Have you considered automating it?
I don't think it's always true. It seems like it would have to depend on how the nation state responds to its citizens when the nation state does things like break large portions of the web. And what actual economic leverage the state has (or could bring to bear) over the company.

Losing the citizenry might be more politically damaging faster than economically damaging to X/Starlink.
Well, perhaps I layered in too much sarcasm, but the idea is that it's not a free speech violation for the government to say someone can't post on social media. That person is still free to say it, just not to have it broadcast to everyone.

Haha, or just about any other oligarch. Also, "free market" is equally laughable.

I'm not buying this pseudo-scientific nonsense. Allergies have to do with the immune system, but you cannot be "immunized" against an allergy.

Someone genetically predisposed to a peanut allergy cannot have that problem thwarted by early exposure.

Allergies grow worse with exposure, as the substance which triggers the allergy is memorized by the immune system. This is sensitization.

The second problem with the claim is that nobody actually does what the article describes: avoid giving kids peanut butter until they are 3. The modern protocol is that peanut butter is cautiously introduced in a tiny amount to a weaning infant. If that looks okay, they get more until it either looks obvious that they are fine, or else that they are not.

The third problem is that even if people doggedly followed this three year rule, it has not been enough time for that to be imprinted on the human genome, so that we have more prevalence of peanut allergy now in our DNA.

All we have today is better awareness. That's why there is more of everything, not just peanut allergies.

I wonder, do the believers in this hypothesis also think this would work for industrial irritants? If we just expose infants to epoxy resins, they will later able to work in a fiberglass shop without any problems?

> Losing the citizenry might be more politically damaging faster than economically damaging to X/Starlink.

Provide evidence Brazil will lose the citizenry over this. It appears that Brazil has been surgical in directing access restrictions to X; millions of X social followers have moved to Bluesky [1], and while Starlink customers might be impacted (~250k terminals) who cannot access X, they are not a majority in any sense (based on ground station count; 250k vs a Brazil population of 215.3 million people).

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. It's also easy to get caught in the trap to believe that other people think how one's own self thinks [2].

Not a perfect black box, but close.
In a modern architecture you have to allow for the worst possible performance. Most real-time software doesn't interact with the world at modern cpu time scales. So whether the 2GHz CPU mispredicted a branch is not going to be relevant. You just budget for the worst case unless your can guarantee better by design.

You're not mad at the person who wrote the tax code?

Taxes are pretty arbitrary. Unless you intend to enforce the spirit rather than the letter of the law you're always going to be playing cat and mouse games. People who generate money want to keep it and people who give away money want to take it from people who have money. One will ALWAYS be a step ahead of the other.

If you enforce the spirit of the law people call foul and stop playing the game with you.

Don't get mad at the mice, just build better mouse traps.

Happy to see ITA software mentioned in the comments: https://matrix.itasoftware.com/search

I still have fond memories of their legendary (pre-leetcode) coding challenges [0] posted on the T (they also hosted the Boston Lisp users group in the early 2000s which was filled with mind-blowingly incredibly brilliant people, everyone there seemed to be an expert in software and had a PhD in some other, non-related field)

Having worked a bit in the travel industry, I highly recommend that you never book through a third party (by all means use their search). Third party apps are not allowed by airlines to charge less than the airline and typically have abysmal customer service, and I can assure you any "add-ons" offered by a third party are ultimately a scam.

You are right but you are mixing a lot of stuff.

MAJORITY of the world businesses are small shops. Mom and pop businesses or family run shops. They need accounting to track if their customers have paid them, if they have to pay to suppliers and any taxes are due.

Erp systems are wayyyyy too much work for them.

I work with small businesses and they would rather themselves keep half baked records than hire a pro because that saves them cash in the ongoing basis.

Simple accounting helps them. Thats like bringing a shotgun to a knife fight.
I never thought hard about the last part of your comment here, but it really seems strange that it's been normalized to train high-schoolers in the USA to do military drills and such. There's not a lot of weapons training, I don't think, but I'm starting to realize at middle-age that things I've been told as I grew up (even in adulthood) are straight out lies or at least propaganda. I am too trusting.

A standard PC parallel port does not provide interrupts on data lines.

The difference is more that you can control those output lines with really low latency and guaranteed timing. USB has a protocol layer that is less deterministic. So if you need to generate a step signal for a stepper motor e.g. you can bit bang it a lot more accurately through a direct parallel port than a USB to parallel adapter (which is really designed for printing through USB and has very different set of requirements).
I think this is an important point and I agree that this pager bombing fits the definition of terrorism.

Terrorism = Firing a blank cartridge from a gun in a crowded movie theater. Even if it was only a blank cartridge, the entire theater and surrounding businesses need to be rapidly evacuated and cleared by the SWAT team, children are traumatized, it makes the local newspaper, theater has to hire an armed guard and invests in security cameras...

I was talking to a friend about this recently.

I bought a pair of Doc Martens boots a while back. And they're shit. I remember them from the 80's and they were really solid, good leather, well made, etc. The modern ones are crappy leather and fell apart after only a few months. But they still cost a decent amount because they're Doc Martens.

My friend pointed out that Doc Martens are primarily worn by teenage girls these days, and are almost "fast fashion". My expectations based on the brand are not matching with reality, because the brand has moved on from being the de rigeur footwear for the entire 80's alternative scene.

From this, I have come up with the "reverse Vimes" theory of boots. That actually the most cash-efficient approach to footwear is to buy cheap K-mart shoes, expecting them to last for a year, instead of buying expensive branded shoes which are actually made just as badly as the cheap ones and still only last a year.

The point being that Doc Martens, like Forbes, are trading in their reputation for quality. In ten years time they will be known as shitty boots that used to be worn by edgy teenage girls, and the brand will be worthless. But the shareholders will have made significant bank from the destruction of that brand. Late-stage capitalism win, I guess.
That’s a good point, though not every service on the internet has access to that browsing history. I wonder if those large advertising companies are better than most at bot prediction?
