While influential, I don't think C++11 was the primary reason forarchitectures standardising around acquire/release. I think that, with the advent of commodity multi core designs, the time was ripe to move beyond haphazardly, ad hoc and underspecified description of hardware rules to more formal and rigorous models.

Acquire/release happened to be a good fit, easy enough to program for, and relaxed enough to map relatively closely existing architectures. So C++11 embracing it was just moving with the zeitgeist.

For example Itanium got acquire/release operations well before the work on the C++11MM even started.
Not at all. Type II error is routinely the result of methodological flaws like insufficient sample size.

It would be asinine to study the effects of parachutes on survivability of jumping from airplanes, hypothesizing that they would help, but conclude that the "conjecture must be wrong" because the sample size was 2 and it failed to reach statistical significance, or because the airplane was on the ground.

Would you feel differently if the study period was only 1 day instead of 25?

Or maybe 1 hour?

Would it then be reasonable for them to speculate that the methodology might contribute to the failure to reject the null hypothesis?
I feel that my careful distinction between "information theory" entropy and "physical" entropy seems to vanish in your first sentence.

It’s that, and the fact that MMS is still not free on most plans (if it even is still available; I know operators that just don’t support it, because nobody uses it).

> I have never seen milk or cheese in my limited exposure to Indian cuisine.

Indian cuisine is diary oriented to a point that while vegetarian food is super common, it is very difficult to find vegan food (especially North Indian food which is more common in the west). As a fun exercise try finding a local Indian restaurant and see how many of the dishes are vegetarian vs vegan. If you live in an area with a large Indian population, you may find Indian vegetarian restaurants locally - check their menu for vegan items. Milk consumption both directly or in tea is extremely common. Butter and ghee (clarified butter) is omnipresent in Indian cooking. Yogurt (locally called curd) and buttermilk (watery yogurt) is also widely consumed. Paneer, which is a kind of cheese made from curdling milk (very similar to tofu) is very common in North Indian dishes.
Yes and yes. Why would it not be fair? It's not like anyone is losing anything from it.
The AMA no longer supports that position. They have been lobbying Congress to fund more residency slots for several years.

https://savegme.org/

And the AMA isn't the only organization representing physicians. Many of them aren't even members. It's not like a union or something.

Even today there is no legal quota limit on residencies. There's only a cap on slots funded by the federal government through Medicaid. Other organizations are free to fund as many slots as they want. If you have the means you could go to your local non-profit teaching hospital and donate money to expand their program.
Another option is to put that experience to good use. I just turned 43, I should probably have retired. But instead I founded Tech for Palestine, doing whatever we can to help end the oppression on Palestinians by Israel. Hard tiring work, but it feels like a good leverage for all those skills I spent my 20s and 30s building. Maybe that perspective will change once I have kids, which is in slated for the next few years.

This back of the napkin math is one of those things I whish more people just did.

E.g. when people talk about harvesting vibrational energy on the streets or in wearable electronics you should be able to do a ballpark judgment of how much energy such a technology could roughly output in an ideal world.

Show HN: A Simple Calculator to Solve the Terminus Puzzle from Cod BO6
A little over 10 years ago, I ran across TeaVM for the first time (probably) on GitHub. We had been looking for a way to port Codename One to the web, but we needed thread support, which wasn't supported by any existing solutions.

I emailed Alexey (the creator of TeaVM) to ask if he had plans for thread support, and he replied that, while "proper" threads weren't possible, he had some ideas for supporting green threads. Over the following 6 months or so, Alexey would share updates on progress he had made on the thread front. In March 2015, he shared that he had found a new approach for async code that wouldn't affect the performance of single-threaded code, and would support natural stack traces.
We released a preview of our web port using TeaVM a month later, and it exceeded all of our expectations, both in how easy it ended up being to do the port (because of TeaVM), and on the performance.

Alexey's solution for supporting threads, was truly a piece of genius. Had he not created TeaVM, and added threading support, I don't think we would have ended up with our web port - or, at the very least it wouldn't have ended up performing nearly as well.
IMO current AIs are great gateway drugs. They provide "someone is wrong on the Internet" effect for every types and modes of content they are told to generate, from text to code to images. And to me that looks like how you hook kids into things.

I've never lived in a country where carrying gun is allowed and im not much familiar with the topic, so I won't comment on that.
But I lived through the time that there was no phone and then when there were phones with non of these junk apps on them and now. This, I believe, makes it very clear, what the real cause of these problems is.
Why would children need LLMs? At 7!

Maybe they should learn to read, write, do basic knowledge research first before outsourcing everything to a machine.

And yes, to go with your analogy of "not introducing them to LLMs is somewhat analogous to the fact that they have not been given calculators for math". They shouldn't have calculators before they can multiply 5x7 themselves.

We can't outsource very basic knowledge to machines if we want to stay lord over the machines.

When they're in their late teens is still early enough to be lazy and have LLMs do the work for them
One of these things is in the power of the school district, as long as they can convince local parents that it's a good idea (not easy, but studies help). The other is in the power of... who? Possibly nobody. Possibly the American federal government -- but it's not even clear that they have the power to do this.

Either way, the same "they" does not have agency over both things. It makes sense to consider the thing you can actually do.

>On another hand - my 20yo self wouldn't have believed my 40yo self - some things you just have to live through.

As Otto Von Bismarck once said: "Fools learn from experience. I prefer to learn from the experience of others."
My point is - it's under my control, if I didn't know how to do this I'd either accept the ads, pay, or not allow phone usage. There are options. I don't need the government to do that for me, I can decide myself.

Here in Europe, phone is necessary for daily life - even as a kid. And it makes it so much easier, better - and interesting, if you teach your kids that. My kids use their phone like a Star Trek tricorder, using various apps and tools to learn about the world around them. Something I wished was possible when I was a kid but it was a pure scifi - now it's here and I'm not going to take that away from them just because some bureaucrat thinks parents can't control their kids enough.
Banning phones is simpler, and has no downsides. You are at school to learn, you don't need a phone or tablet for that.

Besides, lots of things can be addictive and distracting. Personally I'm addicted to reading news. Had smartphones existed when I was a kid, simply banning social media and games wouldn't have been enough.

I think you make a really great point:

Living with the social (organic) consequences of sharing unpopular opinions is much better than being silenced and digitally imprisoned, because the latter takes away one's dignity to think or build community around ideas which disagree with the status quo.
Nice write up! Can you flesh out your example a little bit with more specifics about how the stock market version works? In particular, are the front-runners actually taking a risk by buying before they have a committed order? Or are they committing to sell before they buy from the cheaper source on the assumption it will still be available? And is selling order flow something different, or the same thing here?
I think we're in agreement. The "that's why we can't have nice things" argument happens at the end when traffic cams' public access is taken away because some clever soul found a novel use for the publicly available information (i.e. taking selfies), and the authorities were put out by it. So, public information gets locked down on spurious grounds, and the same clever soul is wrongly blamed for it. That's not fair, but someone will say ".. and that's why we can't have nice things", and others will say "yeah. that guy ruined it for everyone".

It's a bad argument as it ends up putting the blame on the wrong party.
No amount of repeating is ever, unfortunately, going to get this across; LLMs are founding a new kind of alchemy.
For very small children it probably doesn't make sense, but when they get a bit older it's not that unusual. My kids have my credit card on their phone for when they need it.

They are also joint owners of our bank accounts. We've told them if they ever get the news that we have died, they should go withdraw a bunch of money to carry them over until all the estate stuff settles.
I'm an app developer who's spent my career building excellent iOS apps, previously with Google and Snap.

I have every intention of raising my kids as far away from smartphones as possible, ideally until they're at least teenagers. My fiance and I have already discussed keeping the household as de-screened as possible, it's something we consider a lot.

It's interesting you'd suggest that an app developer would have a conflict of interest that other engineers might not. In my experience, engineers who work with mobile apps, especially ones in the social space, are way, _way_ more likely to understand and be wary about the dangers in overexposing kids to a life of feeds. Colloquially, we call this "seeing how the sausage gets made".
That seems to show that there exist a and b such that the equality holds. But not that it holds for all a and b.

OK, fine, they didn't literally say "reality must be wrong", they just thought it, probably. The attitude stinks. And I say it is remotely contemptible. Perhaps I'd go as far as to say moderately contemptible.

It's a fair point about the aliens. They are presumably mortal themselves, they have expectations about lifespan. Something about the mind not being a blank slate, it's hypotheses all the way down, can't escape preconceived ideas. Sure. Except you can try. You can be more impartial than you otherwise might be, when you're aware that there's something to be partial about.

In the case of smartphone bans, the viewpoint is almost politicized, like whether you're down with the tech bros or think they're evil. Researchers should know that, and thus should be very coldly objective. Here they expect the degradation of mental function, why? That's not something well-understood like mortality. It's probably something there's a great wobbly mass of very questionable psychological research about - low attention in school and degraded working memory due to what they may well call "screentime" - and they've just gone along with it like it's established. Why is known evil thing not acting sufficiently evil to meet our narrative? Must do more research until true.

Another sketchy part of doing this research is the subtext that smartphones lower the mood entails therefore ban smartphones in schools. That isn't a science-based decision, it's a decision to trample on the kids' rights for their own good: science can't guide moral choices. But the only reason to scientifically establish the first part, the fact, is for the purpose of advocating a ban.
> Yeah, clearly the low-hanging fruit is simply to offer more memory.

Yep. And just to be clear, this isn't necessarily a strategy to directly make money, as the market for people running these things locally is probably not very big (as a lot of people in the Intel thread said). But it's a strategy to beat the CUDA monopoly and get everyone and their dog to support your hardware with their software. I know I would be porting my software to their hardware if it was actually compelling for small fish, and I know plenty of other people who would too.

AMD also somewhat falls into this trap. They're slightly cheaper than NVidia, and their hardware is roughly good enough, but because their software stack and their hardware support sucks (just look at their ROCm compatibility list, it's a complete joke with, like, 3 models of GPUs, vs NVidia where I can use any GPU from the last 8 years) no one bothers. Being good enough is not good enough, you need to offer some sort of a unique selling point for people to tolerate the extra software issues they'll have with your hardware.
Have you watched the infinite scroll much? Because my direct experience says you're wrong. Probably you can't really recreated the teenage phone experience even if you wanted to. What you need is:

1) a large enough group of actual close friends to use some social media app, so that by deleting that app you are removing a large part of your social life

2) those apps to continuously add infinite scroll, ad driven, engagement trap shit into every single aspect of the entire app.

Imagine if your work messages came through tiktok and by pressing back you were instantly dropped into an infinite scroll feed curated to your interests. Or say, slack gets bought and becomes an ad driven company who's only metric is increased time in app. But! Then your work refuses to change apps! So as you watch the app slowly become an attention pit, you are completely prevented from escaping it.

I don't think a lot of you old fogies really understand what the apps are like these days, or what teenage social life is like without the apps.

The fact that you're claiming that it's not harder to read an uninteresting paragraph after watching an infinite feed tells me you, luckily, have the privilege of not being tethered to these apps. You have the privilege to exist in a world where your social life isn't governed by ad revenue.

Because i grew up at the very start of all this, and some of my friends still use some of the apps, and everything that's "common knowledge" about phones and attention spans is true. The phone itself is fine, but i do think that the infinite scroll is just about the most dangerous device on the planet, barring the obvious ones.

This just reads like a thread about preventing teenagers from starting smoking, being filled with older people saying "why would you do that? Quitting smoking isn't hard, i smoked a pack once and was fine. And besides, smoking a cigarette or two doesn't hurt anyone, I'm fine".
Could probably get one of the many repos up and running pretty quickly [1].

Potentially what you could do is generate smaller versions of the images, test their hash matching under different conditions against multiple algorithms and then pick the parameters where you get fewest hash collisions.

We need to introduce these simple demonstrations in math courses.
cropping or recompressing the image helps with nothing.

The comment I was replying to has this quote in it

> he went beyond just advocating for concrete specs and explicitly challenged the traditional design-thinking approach, arguing that teams should pick a fully formed idea and run with it rather than spending too long on broad problem exploration and multiple potential solutions
The article you linked explains this by pointing out how Medicare generously covers cancer drugs compared to European healthcare systems. It seems to have nothing to do with the private insurance system, which is what I was criticizing. Americans get great taxpayer value out of Medicare, much more efficient and equitable than private insurance.

Basically, America has the best socialized healthcare in the world for cancer, but only if you’re older than 65. Cancer just happens to be an illness that is primarily affecting that age group.

Americans have to wait until age 65 to get socialized medicine, which is why the majority of Americans approve of expanding Medicare to all age groups.

And there’s also a huge gap in smoking rates with the US smoking far less which was discussed in the article you linked.

I would love to see a comparison on outcomes for people below 65 especially as it relates to medical bankruptcy and inequality of access to care.

I’m quite doubtful that affluent European countries have similar inequality levels that the US has with, e.g., the wide gap between infant mortality rates between Black and white women.
A couple of things stand right out here: a) There's almost no time horizon here, so it's basically day trading. It's not enough to know what happens, everyone else needs to "do the right thing" in a short time horizon. As the article says, that doesn't happen a lot. b) WSJ isn't as good a new source as it used to be, which makes the game harder. Though occasionally, something big will happen and a one day lookback would be helpful. (Say, shorting airline stocks before 9/11...)
Yes it is. Got a better way?
You'd better not do any, then. Were you thinking of it?

This is very impressive.

tl;dr they are adding Wayland support while maintaining X support by abstracting both into an interface so they never lose support to either.
But not for b > a.
This reminds me of this video about why we need to be very careful when inspecting visual proofs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYQVlVoWoPY (it includes a "proof" that pi equals exactly 4).

In this case, as someone else pointed out below, this proof has unjustified assumptions in it (at least it assumes that b < a).
This is an enormously disingenuous take. When Usenet was the only game in town, children were not stumbling into hyperoptimized addictive experiences tailored to every flick of their eyes. You don’t think that thousands of engineers building TikTok or Instagram to hijack your child’s literal capacity for attention and healthy social development “externalizes your locus of control”?

Reducing the algorithmic targeting of children (by taking away phones or otherwise) is no more censorship than telling someone to stop standing in front of you and shouting in your face.
Isn't it? The key metric is what fraction of things do actually align with factual reality. The Ouija board is a terrible analogy, because it _never_ aligns with reality.

In my experience of using LLMs for various tasks, in _a lot_ of use, the output is very much in line with reality. Coding is not a domain where it shines in this. Natural language based domains, though: they're really good at saying true things and do so _way_ more often than not, to the point one could easily call the former "normal" operation.
Importantly these also usually included unlimited media messages (MMS) early on.

Flat rate plans in Europe started appearing a bit later and usually never included MMS, so it was calls and texts only, but no photos. WhatsApp changed that.

Lack of success might be a stretch because I think there are plenty of people at McKinsey etc having an amazing career but working 90/100/… hours per week and never getting to enjoy life. Speaking from my personal experience of seeing various people go through midlife crisis it has been mostly “time passes while we do other things.” then when it hits one goes “I have never ____” and “I have never ____” and there is now very limited time left. you know, like “bucket list” is exactly what it is, list is loooong and you are 48.5
