I find that you already have an event loop built on top of poll/epoll/io_uring, maintaining a timer heap (or wheel) in userspace and setting the polling timeout to the next expiration is the easiest and more efficient solution. Use an eventfd to force an early wakeup if you modify timers concurrently with your waits.

The most annoying thing is that epoll supports timeouts smaller than a millisecond only since 5.11.

edit: that's literally what's described under "All OSes: timers fully implemented in userspace ", including the comment about epoll low resolution.

Hopefully this is a simple question. I have a busted (seemingly) EdgeRouter from Ubiquiti that needs replacing.

I am currently on an old ASUS that was from the before times and it's "fine" but not updated any longer (even with the 3rd party firmware). So I'm in the market to get something new.

What's a nice all in one unit for OpenWRT? I have a very small 1000sqft house so generally speaking I have zero issues with range and everything is wireless anyway. I just want reliability and set it and forget it, generally speaking.
Lack of enforcement mechanisms, captured courts, feckless political stooges, gullible public.

E.g.

Virginia governor illegally purged voters within a certain time window. Courts said "yeah that was illegal, you need to stop" VA attorney gen said "no I don't." And while the court of appeals agreed with the lower court "yeah simple violation of the law. Reinstate revoked registration." The VA supreme court was like "nah fam, let's let the governor do his thing and we can figure this all out after the election." And everyone kinda stopped talking about it.

As a poll worker I had multiple people who had voter ID cards come in last November but required filling out paperwork to re-register them and have them cast a provisional ballot. Feels like they were connected as I hadn't dealt with that in the near dozen elections I've worked prior.

It’s not particularly hard to find clothes that are made ethically. I do it for most clothes I own. It’s even easier if (and more expensive) if you wear more traditional clothes (wool suits, coats, dress shoes, etc). You can avoid a lot of the abuses by buying things made in more developed countries (though obviously workers still won’t be paid terribly well, and the garment industry in the United States has some unpleasant corners). This tends to make clothes more expensive, especially as higher quality, more expensive inputs tend to be used too, but you can probably find a tee that isn’t particularly pricey.

I’m kinda surprised you never tried to do this considering how easy it is and how much your comments seem to suggest that you care. Possibly we’re talking past one another and you wouldn’t find any clothing companies that meet your ethical standards.

Interestingly, that was one of the original considerations for _Magic: The Gathering_ --- but somehow, my main (Commander) deck has become an unpocketable behemoth which is tedious to shuffle and which requires a box containing:

I get pretty decent, if high-contrast results pushing 320TX and 400TX to 3200.

Pushing does increase grain; but using a larger format (6x7 or 4x5) reduces the apparent grain in resultant prints.

I can't say enough good things about HC-110 as a developer: pushes well just by increasing development time, shelf-stable for years as a concentrate, and not particularly toxic compared to other developers.

The reason it's defensible is that now checks and balances are gone because there aren't even token checks/balances from partisanship--the remaining functions of government are controlled by a single party, purging anyone who isn't loyal and willing to do whatever they deem justified.

> What’s wrong with the separation of powers in the USA?

Once the same party controls the Senate, House, Presidency and Supreme Court, the powers are no longer meaningfully separate. Which is now the case.

(state powers are still separate; I'm guessing we'll see action from state AGs against sudden Federal actions which have disadvantaged their state)

Also, as Musk has figured out, the simple power of fait accompli. If you don't comply with a court order, someone has to make you. All of whom are Federal employees. Who are on the OPM payroll. Which he controls.
> If you then scale the setup up by 1000 (=> getting 5kg as expected value), then the variance scales to 1000^2 * 0.04 = 40000 g^2.

They didn't "scale the setup". They made a small-scale measurement, then extrapolated from that result by many orders of magnitude. They didn't grind up whole brains and measure the plastic content.

Imagine the experiment as a draw from a normal distribution (the distribution is irrelevant; it's just easier to visualize). You then multiply that sample by 10,000. What is the variance of the resulting sample distribution?

I used the word “deterrence” though to close the thought :) people looking to do crime should find an easier place. But maybe it’s harder to get away with it on the streets of manhattan than on the subway, I’d have to ask a cop or a criminal to really know I suppose… I also heard sentences have been light in NYC, so maybe repeat offenders are everywhere and expect to eventually get caught anyway.

There’s no absolute need to guarantee or even catch the majority of them for a deterrence to be effective. But if it’s not effective (cameras broken, etc) then word will get around fast. That is the idea anyway.

But yeah I don’t have much confidence in government to do a great job there, unless the victim is a Fortune 500 CEO.

Show HN: AI bug reporter with Gemini 2.0
It’s insane that bug reporting is still done by hand. People are terrible at writing bug reports. That’s how you end up with hours of back-and-forth for a 5 min fix. "What browser?" “Is it still happening?”

But this is a problem you can fix with tools. Humans are inherently error-prone when it comes to reporting bugs, but computers aren’t. Imagine a tool that plugs into devtools and grabs: session recording + network logs + error traces + AI that writes a summary and repro steps.

A few years ago, we built a tool that captures all the information you’d get in a HAR file plus screen recording and packages it into a link for engineers. (Like a screen recorder plus DevTools). It’s called jam.dev and people use it to capture more than half a million bugs each month now (which we are really excited about!)

Today we added an AI inside that analyzes all of the session data and errors/traces in the console and network logs and writes a concise description of the bug and lists out the exact repro steps, complete with timestamps mapped to the screen recording. It’s built with Gemini 2.0 which we used while in experimental mode. We chose Gemini because of Gemini’s native ability to process videos (which other LLMs don’t have).

I’d love for you to try it out and let me know your thoughts, my email is dani@jam.dev.

Try it: jam.dev/ai

I think people are going to have a large role in testing software for a long time (as long as humans are the users, humans need to be testers too), but what doesn’t need to be manually done is collecting debug information and writing it up into a ticket.

By the way, we’re hiring engineers and working on building AI for debugging, de-duplication and auto-resolution and if these are problems that excite you, we’d love to chat: jam.dev/careers
Same basic experience. The colo ISP soaks up most actual DDoS. We had a couple mid-sized ones when we were hosting irc.binrev.net from salty b& users. No real effect other than the colo did let us know it was happening and that it was "not a significant amount of DDoS by our standards."
The argument is that it's better handled at the state level, and having a centralized federal authority for that is of little to no value.

It'll allow states to race to the bottom in worker safety, which I suppose is the idea.

It might also make compliance overall more expensive by creating a fragmented patchwork of regulations and practices, which increases complexity. Look at the effect of different states having different fuel formulation requirements on the oil refining industry.

A lot of the cost of regulatory compliance comes from complexity, fragmentation, and cognitive load. Simple uniform regulations are cheaper and easier.

Curious why open source? At the end of the day, lead gen is mostly about data curation. You’re either paying for access to curated feeds or spending time/money building your own pipeline.
I quite heavily disagree. Perhaps might apply to programs which do spend like 90% of their time in a couple tight loops, but there's tons of software that isn't that simple (especially web.. well, everything, but also compilers, video game logic, whatever bits of kernel logic happen in syscalls, etc), instead spending a ton of time whizzing around a massive mess. And you want that mess to run as fast as possible regardless of how much the mess being a mess makes low-level devs cry. If there's headroom in the AGU for a 64-bit adder, I'd imagine it's an extremely free good couple percent boost; though the cost of extra register port(s) (or logic of sharing some with an ALU) might be annoying.

And indexed loads aren't a "here or there", they're a pretty damn common thing; like, a ton more common than most instructions in Zbb/Zbc/Zbs.
If spending is so important why are the most expensive districts the worst. Shouldn’t that money have helped them? And yet year after year, they remain the worst despite $20k+ per student.

I learned much from just scrolling HN. Technical articles help me know the latest updates in various areas, dive deep into a topic, or develop new skills. I applied quite a few things I learned in my job. Fundamentally, most links on HN are articles, many of which are quite long, which tend to be more focused and informative.

Completely non-technical ones are few, and you can always choose to ignore them.

The feed is also non-personalized. It's not going to show a few more article on politics just because you linked on one.

By comparison, reddit is much, much worse, almost the opposite of HN. Just a bit better than Twitter, maybe. Most of my reddit browsing/participation falls into tech/hobby, yet I always find that spend more time than I'd like on meaningless stuff, and reddit keeps pushing/promoting political content (even in the context of technology).

My solution? Don't browse reddit unless I really need to for some reason (or if I really don't have anything else to do at that time).
There was a Show HN style post here maybe a year ago that you could type your hn handle into and it would decloak your alt accounts, it was very accurate.

> Honestly, using USB sticks for that would also have been okay.

Right! People often forget git was designed specifically for Linux kernel development which is done by a loosely-knit global base of developers. There are much simpler solutions if you can actually live with exchanging USB sticks.

One nice thing is only needing to know one tool for both open source and centralised development, though. It can seem a little odd if you don't do any open source at all, though.
Seems like the only thing this will achieve is a reduction in safety standards (states racing to the bottom for profitability), and a increase in the complexity of handling inter-state business.

So both the workers and the business' are getting screwed? If it's meant to boost productivity the additional labour of remaining compliant across state regulations works against this.

That's definitely the healthiest approach to it. I agree with you it won't matter if you stop for a while or not, as it was done for pleasure in the first place.
> It is unlikely. The samples collected would be checked for fragments.

It is not straightforward to identify a new virus that is not closely related to known human viruses. You cannot just “check for it.” It is largely an unsolved problem, and there are likely a huge number of common viruses that frequently infect humans that still remain undiscovered. When we sequence real world DNA and RNA there is a whole bunch of mysterious stuff that is unexplained, and may include many undiscovered viruses, and bacteria.

I don't agree about the rest of the stuff you mentioned. In fact, there are academics actively studying things like what you mentioned- including Gerald Pollack at UW, but the reality of these phenomenon are more complex than the popular conspiracy theory level explanations imply, and there is no reason to think they lead to things like what you are claiming. Look here: https://www.pollacklab.org/

I used to feel the same about science unfairly rejecting fringe ideas, and that was part of my motivation to become a scientist... but after becoming one I found it is mostly not true. Plenty of scientists openly study and consider stuff like this and are not "discredited" - the reality is a bit more mundane, that the conspiracy theory versions of these stories are just lacking so much nuance that they have little to no relation to the actual research.

You can see from Pollacks' website above that he has a big problem with fraudulent products using his name and likeness to claim some medical benefit, which neither he or his research actually support.
