I have had the opposite trajectory. Used to teach Paxos, but was so relieved to switch to Raft when the paper came out.

I discuss distributed data structures in the context of maps and sequences.

For maps, I discuss key-value stores (NUMA, Redis). I have them implement cache coherence (MESI protocol, TARDIS 2.0), then linearizable, fault-tolerant, wait-free shared memory registers (the Attiya/Bar-Noy/Dolev algorithm[1]).

For sequences, I cover shared logs and state machine replication, including database log shipping, Kafka, queues and Raft.

I like Raft because it cuts down the design space by making certain very intuitive and pragmatic choices, like using timeouts (which are almost beneath Lamport to discuss :), or idioms like "follow the leader", "if the leader is unreachable, stand for election", "elect the latest & most informed leader", (how I wish that was true in real life!), "always append" etc. There are simple mechanisms to preserve invariants.

The problem with Paxos is that there is such a large range of papers that there is no one paper that makes the leap in easy digestible chunks from Basic to MultiPaxos. When I got students to implement MultiPaxos, I never could get sufficient confidence that it was done right (esp. the "disorderly" filling in of log slots).

Paxos is like Monads; when you get it, you feel compelled to write a "Paxos explained" paper :)

Well, given that firearm-related deaths are the top cause of child mortality in the US, that there have been 139 shootings in schools just this year (that isn't even over yet...) [2] and there's about 115.000 schools in the US [3] it's about a 0.12% chance that any given teacher's school is about to be the site of a massacre in the US in a given year. That definitely fits my claim of a non-insignificant chance of getting shot, and in any case it should be zero - children should not fear getting shot to the point that 95% of schools have to hold (some even mandated by law...) regular active-shooter drills that end up traumatizing a truckload of children [6]. THESE DRILLS ONLY EXIST IN THE USA among civilized, developed countries ffs. Other countries may hold drills for natural disasters such as earthquakes, there's no chance to avoid that, but shooting drills? Come on!

In contrast, there have been about 22.000 murders per year since Covid [5] (a significant uptick) on a population of 345 million people, so the risk of getting murdered is significantly lower for the general population. The risk might be even lower in rural areas but higher in high-crime-in-general areas but seriously I lack the time and will to do a per-county analysis.

It’s probably closest to modeling a housefly, but that doesn’t mean it’s not also a model of a human brain. Being a model doesn’t require that it exactly captures every aspect and scale, it means that it tries to approximate the working principle. Just like a SIR model doesn’t really model how an infection in an organism works, but it still models infection behavior of COVID between humans.
> Removing the GIL sounds like it will make typical Python programs slower and will introduce a lot of complexity?

This was the original reason for CPython to retain GIL for very long time, and probably true for most of that time. That's why the eventual GIL removal had to be paired with other important performance improvements like JIT, which was only implemented after some feasible paths were found and explicitly funded by a big sponsor.
Yeah the goal of my extension is it's open-source and people have the choice to build/install the extension themselves.

Also you're being a little close-minded about the 100k users, people are simply different and have different needs. I for example know these productivity suites exist but choose not to install them because I don't need the other features and have also had bad experiences with apps ruining my system state.

An area block is different when it's so far from the battlefield. This is equipment used over Kyiv itself.

This is an ongoing issue left over from stories earlier this year of Russia using Starlink. Something both Ukraine and the Pentagon are saying SpaceX is proactive in cooperation.

Unless you're asking SpaceX to turn off Starlink in Ukraine period.

One way to limit this issue right now is to cut the speed of mobility below 100 km/hr. I don't know if it can be done locally only.

Moreso this is a situation where data is being given to Ukraine and the Pentagon. Likely live (SpaceX sells monitoring dashboards to Enterprise customers) so they can work with that data

I really find a bummer that there is such a resistance to make JIT enable versions available for download, alongside the other variants.

Naturally I can easily compile my own Python 3.13 version, no biggie.

However from my experience, this makes many people that could potentially try it out and give feedback, don't care and rather wait.
I don’t disagree with the overall premise, but I’d characterise Apple’s move to include more buttons in the iPhone as desperation - they’re increasingly running out of ‘innovations’ to justify each new generation of iPhones being worth an upgrade.
I'm not surprised that you can pretend to do that in a trademark office, but I'm more surprised that it does not trigger an antitrust investigation by authorities as it is clearly the 2 dominant players colluding to prevent having any competition!
Anything provided to Ukraine as long as there's no whitelist is available to Russia.

They can stop offering mobility or limit speeds away from the frontline.
Pointing out differences doesn’t mean it’s not a model, that’s what makes it a model and not a replica. Saying „A neural network is a model of the human brain“ doesn’t imply that it’s a direct simulation of the structure and scale of a human brain, it just means that the neural network is based on a simplification of how neurons in a brain work. That’s the entire claim.
It really seems insane to me (in Canada specifically, but also generally) that alcohol ads and sports gambling app ads are not only legal, but possibly the most common form of advertising, the latter of which only recently becoming legal under our "progressive" government as though having our teeth kicked in during the pandemic wasn't enough. Seems like an almost deliberate effort to screw as many lives as possible
I doubt this is relevant for EM waves. Water waves are much more complicated because the wave speed in water is highly frequency dependent. That makes things much harder to model. Whilst in optics (and thus EM) people have been reasoning in terms of wavefronts in 3d for about half a century. Look at a YouTube channel like Huygens optics to see what a former professional can easily do in his shed.
Gods true OS
The first step: Stop arguing.
How does it work from an energy point of view. If a wave weighs ten tonnes per meter width per meter high, say, each collision needs to move increasingly large amounts of water up like a hanoi tower (although some of the energy may come from vacating space going down). Is that energy coming from currents or the waves? Can you really get 100x bar a tsunami or similar?

IMHO, it's clear that no human can learn like AI. AI outperformed humans with huge margin in some areas already, while their performance is laughable in other areas.

Also, it's obvious that our brain is not built like AI models.

There are similarities between both human and current AI models, but there also huge differences, which doesn't allow easily map one to another.

Show HN: Destash – Buy and sell childrens clothing (UK)
If you live in the UK and have children I would REALLY appreciate any thoughts you have.

My name is Tom, this is my startup which I recently launched. I have been working on the technology and platform for some time now though.

Why did we create this:
- Young children outgrow their lightly used clothes each year. So parents have a constant need to get in new items and pass on their used items.
- The environmental problem of fashion is huge, literally bigger than aviation and marine shipping combined.
- Parents want quality clothes at an affordable price and they don't have time to mess around with bad actors and time wasting features. They deserve a product built around their specific needs.
- Existing well known platforms aren't as customer focused as they should be, leading to bad experiences and mistrust. We believe a competitor in this area can increase the bar for what a customer experience should look like in the resale space.

Key features:
- App only
- UK only for now
- Available on App Store & Google Play
- Zero seller fees
- 10% buyer fee
- Bundle discounts

Download the app using this link

(n.b. The app requires a sign up, phone number + email, I know this might be frustrating for a quick review but it really is required when dealing with C2C commerce and wanting to ensure a level of trust in the user base we are trying to build, apologies for that!)

Thank you for any comments in advance.

> They are based on an extremely simplified approximation of how neurons connect and function (which while conceptually similar is a terrible predictive model for biological neurons) and are connected together in ways that have absolutely zero resemblance to how complex nervous systems look in real animals.

Well then you already think it’s a model. Being a simplified approximation makes it a model.

Just as I said in another comment, a SIR model also models infection behavior of COVID in humans, even though it is extremely simplified and doesn’t even look at individuals. It’s basically just a set of differential equations that give a curve that looks like infection numbers. But that is exactly what makes it a model. It’s a simplified abstraction.

OpenAI showed the way that AI is great. But, they will also need to improve their service. I don’t know how much time they have until other players come in to eat their lunch. Apples new features look great and run on device. There is also such much time before open source models do 90% of what OpenAI does and run on device. Facebook is giving it away for free. If profitability is going to be achieved in 2029? That’s five years for players(Apple/fb/microsoft) that are making money today to run and catch up.
I don't think this really disproves their post? They said the profit that doesn't go to players goes to charity. Probably a smidge of the 10.3% that goes to the business and the lotto becomes profit, but out of the other 89.7% everything after taxes goes to either the players or the charity. Close enough; if they're off it's only by a couple percent.
Just out of curiosity, have you heard of the Remarkable Paper Pro? I just got one and it's decent at the writing experience. Probably even good. But currently it's basically only for writing, you can export PDF or png to an email or their cloud. You can write on imported pdfs as well.
Yes, there are certain tasks they're great at, just as AI has been superhuman in some tasks for decades.

According to elsewhere the for profit had the trademark first, and then handed it over to the nonprofit while remaining a licensee. (Automattic founded 2005, WordPress foundation founded 2010) That's a very above board move. And it makes sense for the for profit to take on the legal aspects, because the extraordinary spend won't ruffle donors feathers.

Think more about Attention. Not about Information.

Information is exploding and global available Attention doesn't grow. People who pay attention to one thing, can't use the same time to pay attention to something else.

So govts and corps fight over this common pool of Attention using the Media (TV/Movies/Radio/Social/News/Sports/Gaming etc etc), just like they fought over land and oil and other natural resources. Media is literally used like front line troops of colonial empires in Attention capture wars.

But no one wins as long as Global Human Attention isn't given purpose. We await someone or some group to articulate that vision. Until then people working in Attention Capture fields will keep amusing us to death.

100/week is 5200/year. That's probably the difference between making ends meet and being always in debt for a lot of households - the median us household income is about $50k and we're talking 10% of that. That's a huge difference for the median household, and likely pretty catastrophic for the bottom quartile.

Which arguably is as much a problem with income inequality as anything else, but the point is, gambling exacerbates existing social problems.
I love they built all this infra for running js to avoid building a container runtime and ended up building a container platform using all the hypervisors.

Of course, that’s what makes it a model, not a digital twin of a human brain. But nobody claimed that, so having a roughly similar working principle is enough for me to call it a model of a brain.

You'd probably need to get a random sample of a few hundred phones of the same type to get a reliable view of how well the charging limit actually works. It's very likely that the battery health indicator people are seeing on their phones is primarily dictated by how good a battery they got when they initially bought their phones.

AFAIK, these batteries have a tolerance range of around ±5%, so if you just have a sample of two phones, one might end up with 100% battery health after a few hundred cycles and the other with battery health in the low 90s due to no factor other than battery lottery.

I assume you're joking, but for others who might not realise: aneutronic fusion is mostly aneutronic, not entirely. Some neutrons are still released, and the reactor walls will still become radioactive over time, just slower.

Oh, and also, the fuel types that do produce a usefully lower level of neutron radiation are absurdly hard to get to fuse. We're talking 100x harder than the "easy" D-T fusion... which in turn is five decades of technology development away from producing useful amounts of power.

Aneutronic fusion reactors will be used on interstellar craft... in the 2100s.
