Well yeah, I should've stated Western Europe more with regards to the welfare state, - Central/Eastern Europe hasn't been that enthusiastic about MENA immigration and they don't have that level of social security nets.

Also even the illegal immigrants that come to the US is easier to integrate than the immigrants from MENA in Europe. Culturally they are much closer, even though there has been a influx of illegal immigrants from other places than Americas last couple of years.

This is a very deep difference in immigration in EU vs US that is quite foreign to many Americans.

Uno Platform Dev here.

Uno currently uses some native controls on mobile iOS/Android/Catalyst (text input, mostly) to provide platform features, but the rest is rendered using graphics primitives. On Web, the same happens where CSS is used for most of the rendering. Input interactions are managed entirely by Uno. This allows to have a visually identical UI across platforms, unless the developer chooses otherwise.

On Desktop targets, Uno is rendering everything on an HW accelerated Skia canvas, with GL/Metal backends.

Definitely not abandoned, but it’s a free-time project for myself and another developer. At the end of last year we released version 0.5 with a new protocol design, and roughly a month ago released 0.5.9 with link cost changes to dramatically improve network latency.
I mean it would be pretty easy to make it happen in any given friend group.

This is why we need ipv6. If ipv6 was fully rolled out this livestream could have been an efficient multicast stream like what happens with ipTV.
Even worse, in the general case, you should really decompress the whole tarball up to the end because the traditional mechanism for efficiently overwriting a file in a tarball is to append another copy of it to the end. (This is similar to why you should only trust the central directory for zip files.)
Very interesting to see the way other strings of tokens are being applied to the ideas for LLMs. DNA is a great candidate for that

Ask HN: Is Git commit history useful to you?
I'm curious about how everyone here uses git commit history. I only use commit history for these use-cases:

1. When I'm trying to understand the context around a change that has been made to a file. usually the whole commit provides a better context.
2. When I want to revert a change that breaks the latest release.
3. Comparing branches for rebasing/merging

Are there any other use-case that people use git commit history for?

is commit history useful in other ways?
I keyed off “Linux and/or wsl” specifically. I didn’t know wsl had that interoperability cooked in, I would have assumed the vm still needed gdbserver running in order to connect for a “remote” debug session.
Right, like this person clearly doesn't understand the placebo effect and wrote a whole article about it
How does that square with the obligation that parents have to their children to make their lives suck less?
This is true, but scale comes after production. Once you have the video encoded on a server with a stable connection the hard part is over. What netflix failed to do is spread the files to enough servers around the globe to handle the load. I'm surprised they were unable(?) to use their network of edge servers to handle the live stream. Just run the stream with a 10 second delay and in that time push the stream segments to the edge server

I'm still rocking my myQ Home Bridge that I got after myQ walled of their API.

I paired the 819LMB with my iOS home, and then 'released' it, which made Home-Assistant able to see it. Paired it in there and now I have restored the old-style functionality that you can't even get anymore today. myQ doesn't even offer a subscription to control your own device.

Better yet, it works fully offline (ok, you need WiFi), and you don't need to go through the MyQ app which is less of a garage-remote-control but more of a way to show you advertisements for WalMart+.

Only thing it doesn't do correctly is naming remotes, so I don't know whether it was my car, or one of the portable remotes that opened up the garage door. But I never checked that anyway.
I don't understand the mentality of posts like this. It's a whole lot of empty opinion.

I've been a tester for more than thirty years, I have my own ideas about how I like to test. I put logic in my test code. This is because I want to write powerful tests that find fucking bugs.

It's not intuitively obvious that making more and different little checks is logically equivalent or superior to complex and interesting test code. I don't think it's true, but if it's true, make an argument. Don't just assert and moralize.

I don't think you know what a good test is.
Yeah, I agree with this, especially the everything part. Netflix isn't exactly a scrappy FOSS/hackers organization or similar.
It's illegal to hire undocumented immigrants. Ever hear Trump suggest prosecuting those who do? Trump ignores laws that are not convenient for him.

Many people in Russia will say: "so, you support a government whose national hero was a Nazi collaborator who committed ethnic cleansing of Poles, Russians and Jews."

Then they're under the influence of some serious propaganda.

Being as (1) the collaborator you are referring to is not "a national hero of the government", (2) he wasn't involved in the events you are referring to, and (3) none of that history is in any way relevant to the current conflict.
Many do, as far as initial investment goes. It makes sense when you think about the capital intensive nature of most startups (including more than web startups here, e.g. lab tech commercialization). It also accurately describes a research grant.

That's for startups that can't bootstrap (most of them). For ones which can, they may still choose to do this with customers, as you describe, because it means letting their work follow the money.
> given a unitary matrix, could a neural network predict a number of gates needed to simulate that matrix as a QC and thereby give us a measure of complexity

That's really interesting. I'm curious—did you explore whether the predictivity of the neural network was influenced by any hidden subgroup structure in the unitary matrix? Seems like the matrix symmetries could play a significant role in determining the gate complexity.
I think the idea is “no amount of money beyond what you can reasonable attain in a balanced work period” is worth pursuing over your relationship with your kids, but it probably is worth specifying. I think some people find the notion so absurd that they don’t take it as seriously as they should.

I don’t consider myself totally stupid but it took me many years to figure this out. I took major salary cuts to find work with real balance. And to do work I could be proud of as well. I could have started much sooner but I felt this force pushing me to earn a bit more. Vacations could be a little longer (though I’d have to put out fires while I’m on them). We could afford a home (though kids don’t actually care all that much if you rent or own, anyway). I could afford more convenient food to save time (though my kids prefer when I take time to cook nice food from scratch for them). Ultimately it’s like… Your kids will be happy because you are, and you’re spending time with them. It’s that simple. If you can pay the bills, that’s good enough.

The balance is tough to find. I think this is especially true if you grow up poor, or come from a family with very high expectations. Both seem to be poison for the mind when it comes to finances and perception of success. In both cases there’s never enough.
I believe HN's algorithm tends to relatively downrank stories with a high comment-to-upvote ratio, because they are more often flamewars on divisive topics.

Same and same.
I was not tech lead on that part of the project and did not contribute to any of its initial research/implementation, sadly; I was brought in post-hoc to help with perf issues/cleanup.

To directly answer your question, though, without going into too much detail, there were pci compliance issues with some tables/columns in the mysql db, so if I had to guess, perhaps DMS had the capability to assuage that concern more elegantly than mysql_fdw[0], though the mysql_fwd EXCEPT parameter seems to also do the same thing, so honestly, I have no idea.

By default, all views and tables existing in a particular database on the MySQL host are imported. Using this option, you can exclude specified foreign tables from the import.[1]

This frog is alive. It could detect that long-term thaw is imminent (say from sensors on its skin) and start some processes that produce heat around its heart.
We did spend a little bit of time documenting the earlier v0.3 protocol, as you have linked, but the protocol has changed significantly in design twice since then. v0.4 changed the DHT quite a bit and v0.5 removed the DHT altogether. As a research project it likely will continue to change until we settle on a design we are happier with, at which point we will definitely spend more time documenting it.

The need for ordered/reliable links is mostly for convenience of development at this stage, but that can be fixed for sure.
I guess yes. Having worked on video processing, it's always better if you can stabilize because it significantly reduces the number of unique tokens, which would be even more useful for the present method.
However, you probably lose in generalization performance and not all videos can be stabilized.

What BASIC implementation would folks recommend to a young person starting out today?

My initial inclination would be to suggest:

https://github.com/VBAndCs/sVB-Small-Visual-Basic

but I really wish that there was a more capable option.

Scratch is great until one wants to make a "normal" looking graphical program...

Is there a good walkthrough of how to access GUI objects in Visual Code Studio? Some other option? Livecode seemed promising until the opensource option was taken away. Is Twinbasic a good option? Possibility of Gambas getting ported to Windows?
I used ed for actual work decades ago, on a VT-100. My first job. We all used it until we got vi on the DECSystem-20.

When people look at ed now it seems unusable. Back in the old days we had a printed copy of the code, with line numbers. We annotated the printed copy, then made edits. That made using a line-oriented editor a lot less painful. I haven’t seen programmers looking at code on paper in a long time.
The patient needs to have no doubts that have received medicine and the placebo effect will work 30-50% according to the previous comment, which is really close to what I thought.

If the patient doubts the effect won't take at all.

So that matters but not all for the reasons OP thinks.

It matters bc you can heal yourself, ppl literally do it everyday and it is measured by science as the placebo effect but if you don't think you can, you can't.
I work in data engineering. I tend to do println debugging because the production data sets are not available from my machine. I tend to prefer REPL or notebook driven development from a computer that is connected to the production environment.
Thanks for that update, you might want to post a quick blog update because that was where I was looking to see what the activity was. I get it about free-time projects, I have some of those myself. Thanks for your work on this, it is definitely very neat!
Bluesky definitely has a "this is what twitter used to be vibe" but it's so much more than that. With follow lists and block lists it's really easy to get up to speed and curate your feed. It's also very noticeably less algorithm driven.

> mangled by market power considerations, rather than the CPU architecture this world actually needs

Why are CPUs being built if not for the market? Who are they building CPUs for? And who decided what kind of CPU the world needs?

I like the idea of alternative architectures as any other geek but this lately kind of thinking that permeates the subject comes out as academic arrogance.
I saw one of these a few months ago. It was ~4 am and the person driving the car said "What the F is that???" If I hadn't remembered seeing something about a recent launch I probably would have been perplexed as well.

It's not like the whole world is warned - "if, in the next few days, if you see something really odd when you aren't fully awake, it's probably this."

Not to mention what it was travelling in. SUVs are absolute tanks these days.
Sure, if you want to bring up something truly user hostile Microsoft has done/been doing recently one could point to when an update moved everyone's user profiles to their OneDrive folder, an update they later pulled for being a pretty poor decision. That was a pretty boneheaded and user hostile decision. Making Hearts and Solitaire and what not an ad-supported micro transaction game when it was free was a pretty crappy move. It's not entirely out of character though.

There's lots of things Microsoft has started doing in the past few years which can be considered user hostile in certain lights. Having a pack-in game isn't something they only recently started doing though, so yeah I'll continue to consider people making a massive deal about a Candy Crush shortcut as being hyperbolic and ignorant. Acting like distractionware being bundled into Windows as a new thing (or even advertisements for their services or even third party services) is an ignorant position to take.

Anonymity isn’t a goal for Yggdrasil anymore than it is a goal for for BGP, OSPF, BATMAN etc. Anonymous networks also generally have very high costs/overheads as they often engineer long and indirect paths for obscurity.

Come on, Apple. What are you doing? I was thinking just the other day that Apple should virtualize older iPhones within the latest iPhone system software, so you could seamlessly open old apps and games (32-bit, anyone?) in their own containerized environments. I can't think why they haven't added this feature for any reason other than money grubbing.

You could even customize the containers to be completely closed off from the rest of the iPhone—no contacts, no Internet access (or high security Internet access), etc.

Come on, Apple. Do something good for once. Oh and bring back the headphone jack.

Basically what I did is just follow some people I knew from twitter, and from that I discovered a few follow lists and block lists that I liked. Within a couple of days I had a pretty well curated and very busy feed of things I was interested in seeing and interacting with.
The git history is useful to find out:
* The why, who and when of some change to the code or configuration.
* Looking at older variants of code to see previous attempts to know what has already been tried.
* git blame and git bisect for automated troubleshooting.
tom brady is largely a guy popular in the USA whereas Mike Tyson is globally famous. It follows that this fight would attract a larger audience.
I like to wear nice dress shoes, so that's certainly a factor. It took no more than a moment to learn to do the first half of the knot "wrong" (i.e. to be compatible with the second half of the knot) - and I'd say it was in my muscle memory within a day or two.

A few years later I took up partner dancing and I'm glad that losing a lace in the middle of a dance is a rare occurrence for me - it's super annoying on the rare occasions that it happens (either interrupting the dance to re-tie or putting up with the lace getting underfoot for the rest of it)

Reviewers don't spend their own money on this kind of stuff. If they did, they wouldn't claim that a $5700 bike might be perfect because the alternative is $12000. LOL.

You know what the perfect gravel bike is? It's whatever bike you already have, with maybe some new tires on it.
Using it right now, it is good in many ways, but could improve in terms of hit and miss. I often hit n or c where I meant to hit the space bar, so the real collision checks should probably not be based on the contour lines but on the centroids of each keys heatmap or something.

The ability to use actual shortcuts like Ctrl+C and CTRL+V is really nice, shift selection and swipes to move the cursor by one character are truly amazing.

I don't really care for autocorrect, but sometimes it would have been nice to make the typing more reliable. What I wish for would be more customizing options, e.g. moving the cursor by horizontally wiping is amazing, but way too fast/inaccurate on my device.
One similar crash I remember very well was CNN on 9/11 - I tired to connect from France but is down the whole day.

Since then I am very used to it because our institutional web sites traditionally crash when there is a deadline (typically the taxes or school inscriptions).

As for that one, my son is studying in Europe (I am also in Europe), he called me desperate at 5 am or so to check if he is the only one with the problem (I am the 24/7 family support for anything plugged in). After having liberally insulted Netflix he realized he confirmed with his grandparents that he will be helping them at 10 :)

To be more specific, that is why the battery needs to be in a place that can vent.

When I replaced the AGM battery on my German car, I learned that, even though they don't vent under normal conditions, still have a vent hole. But that's paired with a pressure regulator and not for normal conditions.

Which makes me wonder: did BMW start to use AGM so they can move the heavy battery to the trunk, which helps with weight balance? Or was it an emissions thing that enabled them to move it to the trunk.
A belief does not a religion make. I am religious; I think it would be very bad to try and promote something that should belong in the realm of empiricism and philosophy. If we admit “e/acc” to religion, should we admit e.g. particular views on climate activism as different denominations of a climate religion? No!

> ensuring that individuals have the freedom to opt out of mandatory courses that do not align with their professional focus or are antithetical to their personal positions.

Git history can find code that is changed often, has many developers changing it, or was mostly written by someone no longer with the organization. Looking at the evolution of the code over time can help identify problem code as well as find areas that are in need of more attention, either by refactoring or otherwise cleaning up.
