Let's ask the next why. Why make the interaction with the DOM stateless?

Because walking the tree sucks, and more specifically building upon the tree sucks a lot (createElement, appendChild, etc). That's why innerHTML, which was _not_ a standard, became a standard after being widely implemented and used.

So, the solution was to almost never read the actual tree, because it is slow and weird. This was solved before React (libs like Backbone and others kept track of state).

Regarding DOM mutation, the browser goes through possibly a lot of stuff (reflow, repaint, etc) when the DOM is changed. React is designed to allow components to optimize this lifecycle. It is very easy to misuse though. You have to know the lifecycle to be able to use it effectively, so, you have to think about the state (or just be allowed to use off-the-shelf components, or be ready for unexpected pitfalls).

It seems something like VDOM could be introduced to the standard DOM API. Some kind of detached DOMDocument that is very sterile and fast. It should be faster than doing it with JS. Remember when we parsed JSON with libs written in JS? Or when CSS selectors were parsed inside jQuery? Do you notice my point?

Maybe it could become standard for everyone to make giant chips and use SRAM?

How many SRAM manufacturers are there? Or does it somehow need to be fully integrated into the chip?
Hi! Would this work for a instance that uses Batman to backup Postgres servers?
You can't use 'pip install' in debian because they chose to do that during the transition from python2 to python3. You should use 'pip3 install' which is provided by package python3-pip from debian.

One can argue that this decision should be revised by debian but you should not install packages on system python installation for working into projects. Always use virtual environment.
All joking aside, it is a factor to consider when you're looking at these much smaller cars from foreign markets how they're going to fare when you get t-boned by a lifted F-350.

This is not an argument against this car or others like it, mind you, this is if anything an argument for them and against bloated American status symbols and the less skilled and less empathetic drivers who find them so appealing.
They are substantially smaller in coverage, but have higher quality in my experience. Remarkably, they are also willing to correct their data if you notify them. This of course in is stark contrast to Google Scholar where the metadata of papers is frequently wildly inaccurate. On top of this, Semantic Scholar shares their underlying data (although you need to request an API key). Overall, they have been growing slowly and steadily over the years and I have a lot of respect for what their team is doing for researchers such as myself.

Now for the less great.

They are pushing the concept of "Highly Influential Citations" [1] as their default metric, which to the best of my knowledge is based on a singular workshop publication that produced a classifier trained on about 500 training samples to classify citations. I am a very harsh critic of any metrics for scientific impact. But this is just utter madness. Guaranteeing that this metric is not grossly misleading is nearly impossible and it feels like the only reason they picked it is because Etzioni (AI2 head) is the last author of the workshop paper. It should have been at best a novelty metric and certainly not the default one.

[1]: https://webflow.semanticscholar.org/faq/influential-citation...

Recently, they introduced their Semantic Reader functionality and are now pushing it as a default way to access PDFs on the website. Forcing you to click on a drop down to access plain PDFs. It may or may not be a great tool, but it feels somewhat obvious that they are attempting to use shady patterns to push you in the direction they want.

Lastly, they have started using Google Analytics. Which is not great, but I can understand why they go for the industry default.

Overall, I use them nearly daily and they are the best offering out there for my area of research. Although, I at times feel tempted to grab the data and create an alternative (simpler) frontend with fewer distractions and "modern" web nonsense.

If this is indeed like Plaid, a simple clause in the README would put a lot of people at ease (I looked carefully for this before making my comment): This Unofficial API was built with the express written consent of Venmo (or whatever their LLC is called).

It’s an easy thing to add to the README if it’s true. But if it’s not, that’s a problem.
So we shouldn't:

- Use source control?

- Have build automation?

- (at least some) automated testing?

- Protect data structures accessed concurrently with a mutex?

- Have backups?

I wouldn't say there isn't some imaginary situation where you'd do something different, but it's safer to fall back to doing the above in most situations.

That said many people make up "best practices" or use them without understanding the circumstances to which they apply.

Server-side HMR works out of the box - removing the need for nodemon
Would any answer satisfy you? People want bookmarks synced because they use the same bookmarks on different devices. Many trust Google to transmit their passwords securely and store their email securely. Why not store their passwords securely?
Why? 20 ms is a very long time in the world of digital electronics. 1 MHz = 1 microsecond ticks, and most embedded MCUs run 10x to 100x faster than that. Sensors and ADCs commonly have microsecond-range response times, too.

The mechanical part (rapid inflation) is more interesting, but for a long time, they did it the "obvious" way: a precisely-calibrated explosive charge, just enough to fill the bag without tearing it apart. Now, I think they're moving toward compressed air, which probably requires some clever engineering to build a sufficiently responsive electronically-controlled valve.
Partially true.

Consumers don’t want tiny cheap cars. In the past few years, people have financed progressively more expensive cars over much longer periods, suggesting they don’t want the cheapest options.

Americans view cars as status symbols, not just transport. Hence, car companies sell cars as status symbols, not just utilitarian commodities.
It is worth splitting out the stacked memory silicon layers on both too (if Cerebras is set up with external DRAM memory). HBM is over 10 layers now so the die area is a good bit more than the chip area, but different process nodes are involved.

There is also "cp -P".

My purpose for the I/O sub-section was only to have a convenient logic of memorising how I/O operations work on soft links by default. Memorising techniques don't really gun for technical accuracy. However, I have struck it out because the logic is also blatantly inaccurate and has been rightly called out here.
I want to be sympathetic to Singal, whose writing always seems to generate shitstorms disproportionate to anything he's actually saying, and whose premise in this piece I tend to agree with (as someone whose politics largely line up with those of the outgoing editor in chief, I've found a lot of what SciAm has posted to be cringe-worthy and destructive).

But what is he on about here?

Or that the normal distribution—a vital and basic statistical concept—is inherently suspect? No, really: Three days after the legendary biologist and author E.O. Wilson died, SciAm published a surreal hit piece about him in which the author lamented "his dangerous ideas on what factors influence human behavior."

(a) The (marked!) editorial is in no way a refutation of the concept of the normal distribution.

(b) It's written by a currently-publishing tenured life sciences professor (though, clearly, not one of the ones Singal would have chosen --- or, to be fair, me, though it's not hard for me to get over that and confirm that she's familiar with basic statistics).

(c) There's absolutely nothing "surreal" about taking Wilson to task for his support of scientific racism; multiple headline stories have been written about it, in particular his relationship with John Philippe Rushton, the discredited late head of the Pioneer Fund.

It's one thing for Singal to have culturally heterodox† views on unsettled trans science and policy issues††, another for him to dip his toes into HBD-ism. Sorry, dude, there's a dark stain on Wilson's career. Trying to sneak that past the reader, as if it was knee-jerk wokeism, sabotages the credibility of your own piece.

Again, the rest of this piece, sure. Maybe he's right. The Jedi thing in particular: major ugh. But I don't want to have to check all of his references, and it appears that one needs to.

† term used advisedly

†† this is what Singal is principally known for
> which results in more low-speed, surface-street collisions, while there’s no change in high speed collisions because a short spell of distractedness on the highway is less likely to result in an accident.

That's not a remotely plausible model though. There are recorded cases of e.g. 1.6 seconds of distractedness at high speed causing a fatal collision. Anything that increases road injuries is almost certainly also increasing deaths in something close to proportion, but a given study size obviously has a lot more power to detect injuries than deaths.
And fuel economy regulations encourage larger vehicles with relatively more lenient emissions standards (moreso than the additional size would require) than is applied to smaller cars.

The DOJ is weird. They're so concerned with whether or not a company is a monopoly, not whether or not they're abusing their power.

I can speak for this. I've worked as a mechE on production lines in India.

The parts quality, worker treatment and environmental considerations are excellent (especially compared to what I came in expecting).

These are well-paying stable jobs for low-skilled labor. The plants were clean and significant precautions were taken before operating risky machines. Unionized plants tend to be more worker friendly but also worse run.

The thing about making $8k cars is they only make sense at scale. And effective operation at scale needs a well oiled workforce with little leeway for the kind of inefficiencies that come with haphazard work.

Now, 3rd party supplier conditions are more suspect. They can range from being at parity to looking like a proper sweat shop. But the mines where Apple's silicon is mined isn't that different either.

Ask HN:LLM Gateway vs. API Marketplace for Open Source Project
Our team is building an open-source project focused on API enablement, but we're stuck choosing between two directions: an LLM Gateway or an API Marketplace. We’d love to hear your thoughts and advice!

API economies have shown potential, but it's unclear if there are enough API assets for widespread commercialization right now.
On the other hand, while AI advancements are exciting, many businesses are still hesitant to fully integrate LLMs beyond surface-level applications.
Would love to hear your thoughts on where we should focus!

Option 1: LLM Gateway

Designed for mid-to-large enterprises and AI-first companies, this simplifies multi-LLM integration, enables load balancing, and centralizes LLM call management for cost efficiency and compliance.

Features:

1. Support for multiple mainstream LLMs.

2. Automatic model switching.

3. Prompt management and protection.

4. Enterprise-level input/output filtering.

5. Token quota configuration, monitoring, and alerts.

6. More ...

Option 2: API Marketplace

Built for enterprises and independent developers to create their own API storefronts, enabling subscription-based API sales to internal/external developers.

Features:

1. Payment system integration.

2. User management for API consumers.

3. Custom landing pages for the marketplace.

4. More ...

Whenever I see the backlash to conversations about animal suffering, I wonder if one reason is because it is a sort of “inconvenient truth”, ala global warming, where we are doing grave damage but we prefer to collectively ignore it because that damage aligns with our material incentives. That animals of many kinds are capable of substantial suffering seems honestly obvious to me from first hand observation, and I suspect it is obvious to most others too, at least when we are children. But I think we intentionally “unlearn” this culturally, because for most of human history it was a necessarily evil to sustain ourselves. To bring this truth up begins to break a spell we cast on ourselves that we don’t want unbroken. I look forward to the day when more people feel that their materials needs are satisfied enough that we can collectively approach this topic with an unencompromised intellectual honesty.

YouTube may automatically unmute ads if it detects user interaction, such as clicking on the video or scrolling within the YouTube interface. This practice is intended to grab attention and ensure ads are heard when the viewer shows active interest.

Unfortunately, this behavior is controlled by YouTube, and there’s no direct way to disable it. However, you can:

-Mute System Audio: Keep your device’s audio muted when browsing YouTube.
-Ad Blockers: Use browser extensions to block ads entirely, though this may violate YouTube’s terms of service.
-Premium Subscription: Subscribe to YouTube Premium to enjoy an ad-free experience.

> But then when somebody else has the issue they make a new bug and any data/investigation from the old one is basically lost.

You keep the record of the bug, someone searching for the symptoms can find the wontfix bug. Ideally you put it in the program documentation as a known issue. You just don't keep it open, because it's never going to be worked on.

> Like what's wrong with having 1000 open bugs?

Noise, and creating misleading expectations.
Honest question: what makes them both terrible?
Clearly not, otherwise this bug would have been found much sooner.
I'm sure the advertisement done by those companies have nothing to do with them being seen as status symbols (and preferring bigger cars in general)

Perhaps. But the triage to separate the "good bugs accurately describing real things" from the chaff isn't free either.
And everyone using the API will break.

Very risky business.
1. They already do, because those are old, garbage ships

Sports Clustering
https://github.com/eswardhinak/sports-clustering

Hey hn! I built a clustering project that helps you discover new sports based on your athletic strengths! It's a simple clustering project that uses some data from ESPN Page 2 (https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/sportSkills) that ranks 59 sports on 10 different dimensions. This project uses Lloyd's algorithm to generate clusters based on selected dimensions. So if you want to find a new sport you might be good at given your current athletic skillset, give it a shot (no pun intended).

Feel free to play with it and fork it if you're interested. I've been meaning to add some sort of visualization to this and would appreciate any suggestions/help. Let me know what you think!
What you've done rhetorically by equating (A) telling a machine to do what you want to (B) historical slavery and racism is dehumanizing to humans. It's not humanizing the machines. It says nothing important about the future. It's merely sociopathic.
It seems there was a misunderstanding, as I haven't made any value judgment about LINPACK.

Yes, LINPACK is indeed "old" with a heavy focus on compute power. However, its simplicity serves as a reliable baseline for the types of workflows that supercomputers are designed to handle. Also, at their core, most AI workloads perform essentially the same operations as HPC, albeit with less stability—which, I admit, is a feature, but likely the reason AI-focused systems do not prioritize LINPACK as much.

I am simply saying that any useful metric needs to not only be "stable", but also simple to grasp. Take Green500, probably a significant benchmark for understanding how algorithms consume power, but "too complex" to explain: yet, many cloud providers with their AI supercomputers avoid competing against HPC supercomputers in this domain.

This avoidance isn’t necessarily due to secrecy but rather inefficiencies inherent to cloud systems. Consider PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness)—a highly misleading metric that cloud providers frequently tout. PUE can easily be manipulated, especially with the use of liquid cooling, which is why optimizing for it has become a major factor contributing to water disruptions in several large cities worldwide.
