Eh, partially right. There are of course exceptions, which is "creative" games, that allow to build and craft something- participate constructive in a creation - by either contributing to that creation - or just exploring something infinite like a procedurally generated world. Games can be infinite - similar to LEGO. A good product, takes a chunk of audience out of the market forever.
For the artificial limitations of a company created "experience" you are of course correct.

But unlike Japan, the education system is the antithesis of fair - as, if I understood correctly, your 4th grade teacher will decide which of the 3 tracks you will follow at 10(!) years of age. This obliterates the possibility of social elevator through education.

I wonder how it is in Japan?

It's a good argument, but is your math right?

Texas looks to have a state tax of 20 cents a gallon, plus a federal tax of 18 cents a gallon. 12000 miles at 30 mpg is 400 gallons. The state portion is thus $80/year, and the combined is $152. Which leaves your argument mostly intact, but off by ~2.5x or ~5x depending on how you count. Or did I mess up the math myself?

Also, it appears the average driven per vehicle per year in Texas is more like 16000 miles (https://www.trustedchoice.com/insurance-articles/wheels-wing...). This would make the $200/year surcharge close to equivalent for the total missing gas taxes (state and federal) for a vehicle that is likely heavier than average.
That would take forever - far too long in our case. We have to be able to make changes on the clients of our code because the teams responsible for them are busy achieving their goals.

IMO versioning is something you do when you cannot do the work of upgrading yourself - it's a response you take which is non-optimal and you do it when it's unavoidable.
There aren't any societies like that thankfully. Yet. There's some subcultures, like on HN where at least some years ago there seemed to be a subculture that if you didn't spend your spare time on your side gig or startup, you weren't a real hacker.

That said, the reality for a lot of people living in the US at the moment (and for a while now) is that they have to work multiple jobs and / or gigs like uber to make ends meet.

Complex programming languages for infrastructure code get used when people who are more comfortable using complex programming languages to solve their problems are given the problem of infrastructure and ops.

It is classic "every problem is a nail to the person with a hammer". Complex languages - by definition - can solve a wider variety of problems than a simple declarative language but - by definition - are less simple.

Complex languages for infra - IMO - are the wrong tool for the wrong job because of the wrong skills and the wrong person. The only reason why inefficiencies like this are ever allowed to happen is money.

"Why hire a dev and an ops when we can hire a single devops for fractionally less?" - some excited business person or some broken dev manager, probably.
there is absolutely a crossover point at which it would've made more sense to stay put.

My organisation is feeling it now and while our cloud environment isn't fully optimised it has been designed with cost in mind.

returns, conditional jumps and indirect jumps have each fairly different prediction profiles. In particular paired call+ret are predicted perfectly at least until the dedicated internal stack doesn't overflow; indirect jumps are, as a general rule, less predictable than conditional jumps as more state (the jump target) need to stored.

Ask HN: What Would Make a Cricket App Like "Khelo" Your Daily Go-To?
Hey HN community!

We’re building Khelo, a cricket app aimed at making the cricketing experience richer and more engaging. Given the crowded space with apps like CrickHeroes, we’d love to know:

What’s the one feature or experience that would make a cricket app a daily go-to for you?

Our project is open source, and if you're interested, you can check it out and give us a star on GitHub here: https://github.com/canopas/khelo

Given my experience with ads today is that they frequently get my gender, language, nationality, and country of residence wrong (and in mutually incompatible ways), I suspect that the famous pregnancy story was dumb luck rather than a reflection of quality.

But yes, the Al Capone solution seems like it would work.
Moreso in MMO style games though, which are notorious / intentional time sinks. I remember that xfire at some point mentioned I had 3000+ hours in Eve Online, but to be honest a lot of that time was spent ship spinning / waiting for something to happen, I'd have the game running passively most evenings for a while, do that every day and you've got ~1500 hours per year already.
You're thinking too literally. The USA do not need any co-operation with from the operators of TMSC to deny China the asset. They have enough bombs.

The Americans will want the experience of the operators. If those operators refuse to go to America, they'll be unalived with the plant itself.
Japan has been exporting its culture for decades with games(Mario/Zelda/Final Fantasy..the list goes on). And nowadays anime is also very popular.

China has nothing really, can't think of a single interesting Chinese game/movie/TV show. If you include Hong Kong a few appear, but that isn't really China, and output has died since China forcefully took over.

Maybe it is just me but I also find Chinese really annoying in the way that it sounds, very harsh and unpleasant, something about the tones gives me a mild headache.
This is irrelevant for looking at the effectiveness of climate policy. Restrictions on emissions in the US and EU are not going to reduce the emissions from factories in China even if the resulting products are sold in the US/EU.

Intel (and most CPUs really) have had a "shadow" call stack for ret+call prediction (the Return Stack Buffer) decades before they had the control-flow integrity shadow stack. It is possible that the two stacks are now unified, but I'm not 100% sure.

The RSB has 10 or so entries and it is in the critical path, while the integrity stack might be larger and have less strict performance characteristics, so they might be separate objects.

> They will tell you about proportions, shape of the ears, size as compared to other objects in the picture etc.

But is that how they know that the image is a cat, or is that some after the fact tacked on explaining?

Let me tell you an example to better explain what I mean. There are these “botanical identifying” books. You take a speciment unknown to you and and it asks questions like “what shape the leaves are?” “Is the stem woody or not?” “How many petals on the flower?” And it leads you through a process and at the end gives you ideally the specific latin name of the species. (Or at least narrows it down.)

Vs the act of looking at a rose and knowing without having to expend any further energy that it is a rose. And then if someone is questioning you you can spend some energy on counting petals, and describing leaf shapes and find the thorns and point them out and etc.

It sounds like most people who want “explainable AI” want the first kind of thing. The blind and amnesiac botanist with the plant identifying book. Vs what humans are actually doing which is more like a classification model with a tacked on bulshit generator to reason about the classification model’s outputs into which it doesn’t actually have any in-depth insight.

And it gets worse the deeper you ask them. How do you know that is an ear? How do you know its shape? How do you know the animal is furry?

Who’s being uncritical here? I’m not an alcoholic and neither is my sister. That doesn’t mean alcoholism doesn’t exist nor that there aren’t very real harms to a small subset of the population. Great enough harm (that also impacts on non-alcoholics), that we’ve collectively decided to regulate an otherwise legal substance. Would you suggest that we shouldn’t age-limit alcohol? And even with the things you quote - driving and gun ownership - there’s still an age limit, not no age limit. The specific number is irrelevant and up for discussion, but we’ve still decided for those things that there exists a “too young” category.

I think that has no bearing on the boredom factor.

I love creative games, but each one will make me bored and burned out after a while. Then i take a break and do something else for a while and maybe the itch comes back later and i'll give it another go.

Even the procedurally generated stuff today is so limited in the variety of it. Yeah, there might be a billion planets in something like No Mans Sky or Elite Dangerous, but they're not very interesting to visit and mostly rather similar.

I'm sure this will improve, but it's very hard to make something believable and interesting on a small detailed scale.

Rosetta 2 for Linux is my favourite feature of Mac at the moment. I've been working on a project for many years that had a hard dependency on a library that only compiled on amd64 architecture. So for the longest time I was dual wielding a Mac and Framework laptop. I really hated switching between the two and moreso using Linux on my Framework; just felt like a bleh experience. When Rosetta 2 for Linux came around, I immediately started using it and was fully productive developing on our Intel only projects. I don't see any perceivable speed loss, t hough we had to adjust some sleeps for a few concurrency/threading tests to accommodate Rosetta.

Apple really did not have to make Rosetta 2 available for Linux. If they hadn't, it wouldn't even register a blip on the users / market share of Macs/MacOS. But it's just one of those hidden gems of the OS, and going by this article they haven't stopped improving on it.
How can you justify that view? Harris lost because of voter turnout. I don't see how >60s are to blame for that. I also don't see how >60s are to be blamed for young people moving right.
This is a pretty long winded way of saying “we lost because the voter is too dumb to understand what is best for them”.

This approach is a great way to lose elections.
32GB RAM is not enough for AI either - the problem is that they lock down any user upgradeability and over price every possible change.
It a result of a rather sad trend, which I think started with Google. Rather than going out and doing market research you just throw things against the wall, measure and see if people are using it at any significant rate.

The difference between Google and Microsoft is that Google have no problems just killing of things that doesn't perform to their standard (which is bad in it's own way). With Microsoft backwards compatibility is everything, so once something is in Windows, it says around for a very, very, long time.

AI assistance in writing isn't a bad idea, but maybe not in Notepad. I know that this isn't they way modern Microsoft wants to do things, but exposing an API that would allow 3rd. party vendors to AI support in Windows seems like a more sensible approach. Except they'd probably have to make it accessible from Javascript to make anyone use it.
I’ve only visited once, but my impression of their urban areas was that Japanese zoning laws and planning permit are very different to even UK ones, and worlds apart from American ones. I assume there’s some centuries-old historical reasons that I’m just not aware of.

There are residential houses sandwiched between restaurants, perfectly legitimate businesses built on top of some ‘perfectly legitimate’ businesses and underneath other even shadier businesses. This definitely means that any district with a focus on entertainment will often seem sketchier than it really is.
> which may be easier with the truth but is also much harder when insulting half the electorate

I'm not sure this is correct. In both the Brexit campaign and the Trump election, the winning side spread insults freely, whilst meanwhile spinning a narrative that the other side were talking down to their supporters.

In both cases, the more aggressive and less truthful campaigns won, and the more "proper" campaigns that tried to reach out actually failed.

Being bolder seems to work better in the current political climate, not pussyfooting around being safe and trying not to insult anyone. I wonder if refusing to apologise and doubling down on the "garbage" comment would have worked better.
Ah yes, the Great Wall of Norway is noted for it's troops and shootings of anyone looking for some winter sun.
I'm not sure you are being sarcastic or not, but it is absolutely the best aspect of having the lingua franca. In an ideal world where I had an infinite time, I'd love to learn Slovenian, but obviously I don't, and my life is too short to learn so many languages.

Some blame English for globalism and Americanization, and sure they deserve the blame, but I don't want to live in the world where the people stuck in their own language and cannot communicate.

And there is a super obvious solution to this,assuming children can't buy phones then the parents should setup the account for the children and enter the birthdate. Now the OS the browser int eh phones know if the user is an adult in that country, or whatever age level needed.

If say an adult is incapable to setup a phone/tablet, then a person at the store would help them set the initial part but skip the login with Google/Apple etc.

No idea why this was not tried and then see if it fails.

Literally the only people I have ever seen use the phrase "orange man bad" are Trump supporters attacking Democrats.

That assumes "make it work" means making it work 100% with no gaps or misses. If it only works 90% of the time then it's still working quite well and you get most of the benefit from it without needing "a total surveillance state with draconian punishment for noncompliant citizens"

For instance, it has always been possible for sufficiently motivated kids to acquire hard liquor. If nothing else they can steal it from their parents. To stop this you would need surveillance inside every home and extremely harsh punishments. But we don't actually need that, because an imperfect prohibition works reasonably well.

The whole premise that if a law isn't perfectly enforceable then it's a bad law is a weird thing that techies on the libertarian/autism spectrum come up with a lot, but it's not the way the world actually works.
