That I think the description “the array is not the string” isn’t very elucidating for someone that doesn’t understand the nuance of the ownership/lifetime and move semantics (the topic of the article).

“C++ obfuscates this distinction because of how it automatically deep copies vectors and strings”

It does this because it has to, to guarantee its interface invariants. That “array” (if there is one) really is the string. Just because there might be an indirection doesn’t change that.

> they just operate on that data differently.

Well they operate on the memory “array” of the char data differently (well in the latter not at all).

Also a nitpick: std::string unlike String in Rust or other languages is not married to an encoding. And C++ managed to fuck that one up even more so recently.
My original comment was just saying that it's useful to point out to people that the concrete representation of a string in memory is a struct when relevant, since some people might not realize that. I'm not claiming anything about the best way to think about it overall.

> How these are implemented and their structural details is not really what's important

Usually this isn't important, unless you're talking about low level details impacting performance, which is exactly what the article is about.

What is the utility of this sense of "bug"? If not all bugs can be fixed it seems better to toss the entire concept of a "bug" out the window as no longer useful for describing the behavior of software.
The government had a warrant to seize the device. It got multiple warrant extensions trying to get into the device. They determined it needed a logic board replacement. The warrant extensions expired while that was being done. But the government got a warrant to then actually access the data.

I fail to see how this doesn’t satisfy even a high standard of reasonableness.
I think it's more that there's a more drastic/stricter version of the Kurgan hypothesis that sees Yamnaya migration + Horses + Indo-European language spread as all one packaged good, spreading in a rapid wave from the steppe.

Whereas this author is arguing that the horse part happened later.

We already know the cultural-linguistic spread was more complicated than Gimbutas' original theory. That's not really controversial.
Any recommendations for a starter synth? Something polyphonic, and has the ability to mess around to create new sounds (so analogue controls, but it could still be digital behind the scenes). I'd like some presets, but not be limited to them. What is on the market at a reasonable price point (under or around $500) that fits this profile?
You can trample and destroy a regular lvalue reference as well. The point of casting to an rvalue reference (and invoking the rvalue reference constructor) is to copy an pointer to the underlying data of one container to a new container and then delete the pointer on the original container (set it to null, not destroy the data). This has the effect of transferring ownership of the underlying data from one container to the other. You can do this with an lvalue reference as well, but the semantics are different.

This is useful for copying the data of a temporary string to another string without actually copying each byte of the data. Since the underlying characters live in the heap, there's no point in copying each byte to a new area in the heap. Instead, use move semantics to transfer ownership of the pointer to a new string container

Explanations that only tell you why you would not want to use the tool, sort of a laundry list of things that you can't or shouldn't be doing with it, and should be using something else, as opposed to a comprehensive look into how (or why) the tool works, and how it is better than competition, for example.

The point is that someone who spent 300$ to be in the exact same situation as they were before but the gdp seemingly is doing well. So they could have had a window and a sofa but only have a window in the example. So the gdp is increased but the people are not better of.

This example also cuts into personal efficiency going up. Not needing a car or burning gas because of a badly insulated house is negative for the gdp but good for the wealth of individuals.
Reading the abstract is a lot more pleasant than the article, which rambles.

Sounds like the author is supporting a theory that horse-riding spread along with Indo-Iranian languages (Sintashta culture) rather than earlier. Which doesn't seem crazy to me.

Horses were definitely livestock for a long time before that, kept for meat and dairy. They were very useful on the steppe because unlike cattle (which were imported from elsewhere), they can dig through snow to forage.

I agree with this perspective, but think we're going to hit tension between right to repair and hardening devices against threat actors who have physical access to your device. Apple's move with the inactivity reboot timer is a step in the right direction, but a mode or option to wipe or otherwise destroy all my data if tampering is detected (device is opened) would be welcome (even if it means one is then unable to repair the device). Replacing one's device will always be cheaper than any prolonged interaction with US law enforcement or the US judicial system.

What's the semantic difference? Of course moving a class will involve some amount of copying. How could it be any other way? If you have something like struct { int a[1000]; }, how are you supposed to move the contents of the struct without copying anything? What, you take a pair of really tiny scissors and cut a teeny tiny piece of the RAM, then glue the capacitors somewhere else?

Interesting. That's about 8 million rides per year.

I wonder how close they are to being profitable? As soon as they are getting close to being profitable, they will probably scale this up super fast.

I don't know how much Google invested into Waymo so far. Something like $10B?

If they at some point make $10 per ride, they would only need something like 50 million rides per year to justify that investment with a p/e ratio of 20.

To go from 8M rides to 50M in 5 years they would have to increase their capacity by 50% per year. Might be possible?

> The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

If they have a search warrant then a judge has, from a legal perspective, determined that the request/search is reasonable. So while you have the right to secure against unreasonable cases I think it is a reasonable trade off that those security mechanisms/processes/etc should either be removed by yourself or you should expect them to be removed for you.

> “Tactics and Ethics” – 1919

See [0] for the direct source, and see if you can find that quote. That is actually quote by Russian revolutionary Boris Savinkov. The relevant Lukacs quote is the following

ethical self-awareness makes it quite clear that there are situations — tragic situations — in which it is impossible to act without burdening oneself with guilt. But at the same time it teaches us that, even faced with the choice of two ways of incurring guilt, we should still find that there is a standard attaching to correct and incorrect action. This standard we call sacrifice. And just as the individual who chooses between two forms of guilt finally makes the correct choice when he sacrifices his inferior self on the altar of the higher idea, so it also takes strength to assess this sacrifice in terms of the collective action.

Not much wrong with that.

> Quoted in Daniel Lopez, "The Conversion of Georg Lukács"

That is very far from a verified quote. In fact even the 'Jacobin' article you probably got it from states that it is according to an account by a Social Democratic observer [1]. Social Democrats and Georg Lukacs didn't exactly get along. It is also stylistically not Lukacs, and it would be very strange for Lukacs to talk about Judas in a positive light. Lukacs was a proponent of revolutionary asceticism and discipline. Judas being a historical embodiment of betrayal wouldn't be seen as a positive figure.

> The will to power

You can complain all you want that Hitler and whole of far right misread Nietzsche's Will to Power, extract him from his historical significance and look at his words in abstract, however the objective historical fact remains that Nietzsche had a tremendous influence on Fascism and Nazism (and likely continues to do so) and that is not an accident.

I checked out your docs, and I agree that they flow very nicely! So often it seems that docs are either frustratingly vague to the point where it almost seems like the company is embarrassed to admit that their tool is a tool and not a "transformative synergy experience" (or similar nonsense), or docs immediately get overly specific without covering "why this product exists".

Minor note: The only thing in your docs that made me pause was the repeated use of "CDC", which I had to google the definition of. (For context, I have implemented "CDC" several times in my career, but wasn't familiar with the acronym)
People don't realize that being broke poor in the US is a luxury life in most developing countries.

If you have a medical issue, go to the ER and get top quality healthcare. Dumpster dive for perfectly usable clothes, computers, etc. That's a luxury life for 80% of the planet.

We don’t perform any reclustering. As you said, users would need to rebuild the index if they want to recluster. However, based on our observations, the speed remains acceptable even with significant data growth. We did a simple experiment using nlist=1 on the GIST dataset, the top-10 retrieval results took less than twice the time compared to using nlist=4096. This is because only the quantized vectors (with a 32x compression) need to be inserted into the posting list, and only quantized vector distances need more computations. And the quantized vector computation only accounts for a small amount of time. Most of the time is spent on re-ranking using full-precision vectors. Let's say the breakdown is approximately 20% for quantized vector computations and 80% for full-precision vector computations. So even if the time for quantized vector computations triples, the overall increase in query time would be only about 40%.

If the data distribution shifts, the optimal solution would be to rebuild the index. We believe that HNSW also experiences challenges with data distribution to some extent. However, without rebuilding, our observations suggest that users are more likely to experience slightly longer query times rather than a significant loss in recall.

Show HN: KanthorQ – Messaging System Backed by PostgreSQL
It's my pleasure to share my open-source project with the HN community:

KanthorQ - Messaging System Backed by PostgreSQL

Repo: https://github.com/kanthorlabs/kanthorq
Docs: https://docs.kanthorlabs.com/kanthorq/

I designed, developed, and maintained it to address most of my use cases. Here are some key features:

- Transactional enqueuement: Helps avoid situations where you successfully enqueue a message, but your compute is lost, or the opposite scenario occurs.

- Message persistence: Messages are stored in the database indefinitely until explicitly deleted. This makes tracing, monitoring, and debugging much easier.

- Categorization by subjects: Simplifies message filtering and organization by subject.

If you're familiar with NATS.io, you'll find it easy to get started with KanthorQ. I was an avid user of NATS.io, and it inspired me greatly while designing KanthorQ.

Some example usecases

- Webhook gateway

- Batch jobs

- Notifications
The funny story behind KanthorQ is that it stemmed from a challenge I faced with another project: an open-source webhook gateway (https://github.com/kanthorlabs/kanthor). After completing that project and starting some benchmarks, I realized I was dealing with issues I had never encountered before.

When something went wrong, I had to scan through a list of events to identify the failed ones. However, doing that with traditional message brokers like NATS.io or RabbitMQ was challenging. I needed an additional layer to store the events and analyze the data. As a result, a simple system required two high-availability components to function properly.

Additionally, backup and restoration were not straightforward with traditional message brokers like NATS.io or RabbitMQ. It's difficult to back up and restore these systems—or at least, I couldn't find a reliable way to do it.

That's why I developed KanthorQ. Now, I have a message broker where data is stored in a database, making it easy to browse, analyze, back up, and restore.
When you see a headline GDP growth figure, remember that this number does apply equally to all people. The US and its economy is vast, like all 50 countries of Europe put together. Recently, we are seeing that middle class and below really suffered in the last few years from high inflation, but the economic groups above fared much better. Also, new immigrants (usually unskilled) are doing better than natives. To be clear, I don't any of this post with spite for those doing well.
I see the economic conspiracy theorists are on a field day here...

> but it doesn't necessarily trickle down to Americans or American companies.

It absolutely does go to american companies—that's the entire point of the privatization movement america's been experiencing the last forty years. It's much more difficult to articulate how this reaches americans and builds actual wealth, though, and certain industries benefit more highly from being basically a private form of government (the defense industry, finance, airlines, critical tech companies, etc) than others.

If americans want to reap any windfalls from their "economy" (whatever americans even think that is—as best I can tell it functions in political discourse essentially the same way the Pontifex Maximus performing an augury functioned in ancient Rome) they're going to have to start demanding more concrete things than "jobs" and "stock performance" and "real estate markets".
