After any travel through Italy, Greece, Spain, then western U.S., one wonders why we build as we do.

It must be that kindling is easy to bring to a site and cheap? It certainly doesn't insulate as well. Never mind that kindling burns, rots, hosts insects, or gets snapped like matchsticks in a strong breeze.

With private channels you can choose which ones to fund. Not so much with forced TV license fees for state broadcasters.
Some say that the Roman Republic lasted for so long because it gave just enough voice to the people so they felt heard and the ones in power could not afford to fully ignore them, while not giving the people sufficient power to elect someone that could up-end the oligarchic status quo that was proving to be so competent. There were also lots of checks and balances within the oligarchy to prevent any given radical person or faction from taking over.

For example, Consuls (president-like) were voted-in indirectly through a popular assembly (kinda like the Electoral College). They elected two Consuls that had to rule jointly and keep each other in check. Their term was only 1 year and they could not run for election again for the next 10 years. Consuls rarely had the chance to do any significant damage to the system or build-up power.

The Senators served for life and acted as a counterbalance. They were also elected rather indirectly by other popular assemblies, but they came mostly from the aristocracy that maintained a consistent tradition of Roman culture and morals, for better or worse. The thing is that there were enough of them (300, later 600) that internal competition always kept them in check and prevented anyone from getting too much power.

An interesting system.

But please do not take this as me advocating for such a system. The Romans were terrible violent oppressors by modern standards. A system of government lasting for a long time is not necessarily a good feature, it just means that it's good at keeping its power, nothing else. A status quo that cannot be easily changed is great if you are lucky and the status quo turns out to be good, but it's horrible if the situation is bad and there is no easy way to fix it.

I just wanted to give a bit of context.
ADHD has been linked to a reduced amount of dopamine receptor sites in the brain, and an abnormally high amount of dopamine transporters, which has a profound neurological and physiological impact.

Please, explain how this is just a metabolic issue and how simply adjusting my blood sugar and meditating will magically grow me more dopamine receptors.

Ask HN: Why don't you use spaced repetition to learn, despite its effectiveness?
Spaced repetition is widely regarded as an effective method for learning and retention [0]. And articles about spaced repetition often perform well here [1][2], which suggests a lot of you find it interesting. Yet, it seems like an even larger group don’t incorporate it into their learning process.

I’m curious to understand why. If you’ve heard of or tried spaced repetition but decided not to use it, what led you to that decision?

Was it too time-consuming, did it not fit your learning style, or was there some other factor at play? I’m hoping to go beyond the simple "I didn't know about it" or "it doesn't work for me" answers to better understand the practical barriers and perceptions.

Building an Automated DeFi Business as a Solo Developer on Solana
In 2018, Uniswap's x * y = k formula democratized market making. Today, Solana's high-performance blockchain (400ms finality, sub-cent fees) enables solo developers to build sophisticated automated liquidity provision businesses that were once the domain of Wall Street firms. This technical deep-dive explores how developers can leverage Solana's DeFi protocols (Raydium, Jupiter, Kamino) to create passive income streams through automated market making, concentrated liquidity positions, and cross-protocol optimization. The article covers protocol integration, strategy components, and risk management frameworks for building profitable, automated DeFi systems. Discussion welcomed on the intersection of algorithmic trading, DeFi composability, and solo developer opportunities in the new financial paradigm.
Ooh, I like "four ears". When I splurge on AirPods I'll encourage my family to call me that until they get used to them.
I’ve thought this in the past, but I’ve changed my mind.

Bands, DJs, clubs, concert venues, festivals (almost) all insist on playing music much louder than needed for reasons I'll never understand. The choice between "play music on a decent level for everyone to enjoy without causing hearing loss" and "play music too loud, requiring everyone to either wear ear protection or suffer hearing loss" has somehow been decided in favor of the latter. It's ridiculous.

For some kinds of music it is more or less ingrained in the culture -- think of the "It goes up to 11" in Spinal Tap. But in fact it's worse than that; almost all music is played way too loud.

During the Covid period I attended a number of smaller scale events, that for some reason used a lower sound volume. It Was So Much Better. Those events proved what I already heavily suspected: you do no need those high sound volumes to fully enjoy music.
And it should always be included as one of the important courses in Canada. If you can't communicate your thoughts clearly then your thoughts never really translate into the real world.

Does licensing from smaller actors happens much in practice? It feels to me as there is a huge asymmetry of the ability of corps either infringing the patent directly, or circumventing it vs an individuals budget for infringement discovery and lawyers. I wonder even if bigger players like universities have much success in licensing their IP.
I hear you. I lost a best friend last year after moving in with him and getting effectively bullied and belittled over my ADHD, which he was adamant was made-up and was just a skill issue that I could meditate my way out of. After he became increasingly hostile and psychotic I had to cancel my lease. Really screwed me up for a while.
Does anyone have any suggestions on useful vi commands to learn?

I prefer vi over emacs, but mostly because before I was a hacker, I had an interest in systems administration -- it's so much simpler to edit config files in vi than rely on a tool that seems to require a lot of customization, but I actually usually use Sublime for anything more than a short shell script.
This looks like spooks did spook stuff, got caught, and NIST fixed it? Is there evidence NIST colluded or is the NSA just good at its job?
It is fast. Make frame from sticks, put material on either side and be done with it.

In Finland, logs were generally available. So logs were sensible material to use. And they have somewhat reasonable insulation properties. And rotting and such is not so big deal as long as there is some separation from the ground.

In the end it depends on availability of material and climate.
I don't have a problem with the age thing.

I would say:

A) Numbers in instruction set extensions tend to indicate the bit width, thus my confusion.

B) If you do later want to introduce wider instructions, its going to be confusing.

C) Software moved away from whole integer numbering for a reason. is RVA25 a completely new instruction set, a bug fix, or a superset of RVA23? RVA 1.1 or RVA 2.0 gives you more of a clue as to what youre dealing with.

D) Come 2100 and RVA00 we are going to have numerous issues with software checking that 'RVA >= 23'. I would like this one to be humourous, but unfortunately, experience shows it probably wont be.
I don't have the book, since you have read it, could you provide some of the scientific studies that it cites? I believe you when you say it helped you, but you will have to agree that your anecdotal evidence is not sufficient as proof that it was the ketogenic diet that helped you.

This is the game that comes to my mind. I had the demo from a Windows 95 game disk. The demo was great. Never played the full version though.
AFAICT Boost.Asio is still the go-to networking library. (Though Asio is also available as a standalone outside of Boost, I didn't know that until recently.)

Apart from that, Boost has quite a few goodies such as Boost.Json, Boost.Program_options, Boost.Interprocess, Boost.Lockfree, Boost.Unordered, Boost.Dynamic_Bitset, etc.

Some libraries, like Boost.Atomic, Boost.Thread, Boost.Chrono and Boost.Filesystem, simply became obsolete with modern C++ versions. In fact, they served as the blueprint for the corresponding C++ standard libraries.

Personally, I have been wary of using Boost in the past because it's such huge library, but CMake integration is actually quite good these days and I found it pretty easy to use. Documentation is also quite good IMO.

Which env flag are you referring to? "--experimental-vm-modules"? Or maybe "--experimental-policy"?
You can get exceptions. My social science degree had math requirements, but the lowest math class I took was too high level to count for them. I had to fill out a sheet of paper and submit it to the dean, but other than an hour split between talking to my academic advisor, filling out a form, and talking to the dean it wasn't a problem.

I still find it funny and informative that multivariable calculus, linear algebra, and high level math classes did not automatically fulfill the math requirement because no one ever tried to use them to satisfy it.
Pointing out that some people don't need an 8,000 pound grocery getter isn't elitist, it's just being real.

It is not directly comparable because LwM2M was originally developed for device management, while MQTT is primarily used for transferring telemetry or other opaque data.

My personal gripe with LwM2M is that it uses CoAP (Constrained Application Protocol) as its primary transport protocol. Since CoAP is based on UDP, you’re forced to rely on DTLS for authentication and encryption. Managing sessions with DTLS can be quite frustrating, and unlike TCP, there’s no reliable indication of when a session is closed by your peer.

Another issue is that it doesn't strictly follow the client-initiated communication pattern and can receive unsolicited messages from the server. I have found this to be very unreliable in real-world conditions for Device Management use cases.
I think you're missing the wood for the trees here. It makes no functional difference to the listener whether the reason spotify sounds worse is their use of lower quality masters, or some aspect of their streaming or compression. In practice their library sounds significantly, measurably worse to many people. I've also blind tested this with friends when I signed up for Tidal, and most people I tested were able to clearly hear the difference.

MQTT is being used a lot more in recent years inside of factories for sharing data between machines. Historically it's been used in Oil & Gas for SCADA (getting data from remote well sites).

10+ years ago we added it to Kepware (OPC server) and streamed tag values to "the cloud". I was at a conference giving a presentation on it when Arlen Nipper, one of the creators of MQTT, came up after the presentation and said I did a "decent job". It was humbling :). Fast forward to today, and we have a new company (HighByte) modeling factory data at the edge and sending it via MQTT, SparkplugB (protocol over MQTT), direct to S3, Azure Blob, etc, etc.

All that to say, MQTT is a big driver in Industry 4.0, and it's cool to see it so heavily used all these years later.

There's Waterfox too. It supports VimFx without LegacyFox.
Well, it isn't "uncorrected". It's just that you don't need any additional hardware other than a second gnss receiver on the base station and some kind of link between them.

GNSS is more than accurate enough once you know all slight errors in satellite orbits and the atmospheric distortions currently affecting the area near the base station and can correct for them.
So your client just sucks here.

My experience with the eclipse clients (paho, etc) is similar to yours in both python and C++, - it makes it overly complicated and seems very low level. It also is somewhat buggy because of the architecture.

I believe (perhaps wrongly), it's all basically maintained by one person or close to it (only one person has contributed to the C++ client in the past 6 months, for example, and nobody has contributed in the past 3), so i kind of understand how it's gotten this way over time.

I filed a simple PR (1 word change) to fix an obvious bug and it took 2 years to review it and accept it with no changes. Again not a complaint, just trying to portray how the state feels - a lot of libraries, bugs, and work, and few overworked people helping get it all done.

I moved to other clients and the experience is much much better in python, rust, C#, and C++.

Most of them have a good combination of high and low level API's, so if you just want to send a message on a topic, you don't have to worry about acks, retries, etc.

But if you need control, you can get it.

Honestly, i worry at this point that keeping paho/etc alive in this state is doing more harm than good - if they were officially dead it would at least force the issue.
Right now you end up with users who have an experience like yours, and then either give up on MQTT or assume they are doing it wrong :)

Often you'll see comments about how SR is most effective when you create your own cards and that using off-the-shelf cards isn't effective. But what I've found is that the biggest barrier to using it is the card creation itself. If I have cards in a system, whether it's Anki or otherwise, I am pretty consistent and find that I recall the information in my notes far easier.

I think there's a credibility/trust issue, though, with taking other people's card decks and using them, assuming the info is accurate.

I think the Pythagoreans had the same silly crisis about square root of two that you have about the real-valued measurements. And the solution, I believe, would be the same: there simply are two physical things with lengths that relate to each other exactly as sqrt(2) to 1.

So, how would result of measuring e.g. length of something to an infinite precision look like? It would look like two particles that are kept at rest relative to each other; the distance between them is the measured distance. Whether this distance has to be commeasurable with the Planck scale or not is an interesting question but it really can go either way.

Around 2012, I had sunk several years into becoming extremely familiar with JavaScript when I switched onto a team which was using CoffeeScript. I immediately liked it: it addressed some of the things I'd always found irritating about JavaScript, and I found it very easy to pick up. I was not a Ruby or even Python user at that time, so that didn't influence my decision either.

But you're right that you did have to know enough JS to understand what CoffeeScript was doing under the hood when things went wrong.

Ah, the reason you feel it's slow is because the server is located in Seoul, Korea. You're probably not in Korea, which is causing some network latency. If you try adjusting the map to a single spot and wait for a moment without moving it around, you'll notice it runs more smoothly.

I also want to mention that the map size is 245,760 x 138,240, which is exactly 128 times 1920 x 1080. I’ve managed to make that enormous map, along with the data for hundreds of thousands of weeds and countless rabbits, run smoothly without issues. It even works perfectly on mobile phones.

One proposal is to link the UK to Morocco, which would supply up to 8% of the UK's electricity consumption with a single project. The site would generate 24/7 clean power by a combination of predictable sunshine, predictable wind patterns, and the remainder by batteries.

From reading about the project, it seems the biggest hurdle by far is getting the lengthy cable built. The project is forced to figure out the manufacturing of it's own cable, as there doesn't seem to be enough global capacity to provide it to them externally.
