Election results across Europe and America have shown that accusing people of being "far right" or "Nazi", and to call them ignorant or stupid because they want other policies does not work and only increases polarisation.

Also when I was last there, The National Museum Of Computing had free parking, but Bletchley Park museum charged for their car park, even though it is right next door. You could park at the computing museum car park and visit either or both.

"After Trump remarked that “in this term, everybody wants to be my friend,” The Guardian blasted out a defiant fundraising email stating, “Trump, we don’t want to be your friend” and urging readers to contribute a year-end gift."

Usually the idiom is using the same variable on LHS.

```
a = append(a, elem)
```

If you assign it to anything else, `a` might still remain with the older slice memory which will cause worse problems than equality comparison.

So the kind of code you wrote is hardly ever written in production.

The advantage of having this is avoiding one more heap allocation for slice, which is a good tradeoff if you ask me.
It’s very helpful for performing music

I sometimes play live (I don’t enjoy it) using Spectrasonic’s Keyscape, which loads many dozens of gigabytes into RAM. If I have one more “mystery” buffering issue I’m going to tear my hair out

This is on an ultra locked down, high spec dedicated PC

I would be absolutely enthralled if my software/hardware had a consistent schedule like that prioritised by an actual RTOS

It’s why almost all actual musicians use industry standards like Nord for keyboards. While my Keyscape VST sounds much better, I can’t reliably use it in live contexts because the Windows/Mac stacks are just too precarious

I don’t need it to crush numbers, just have the gap between best case and worst case scenario for computation to be effectively zero

And incredibly badly designed. Like not supporting type-ahead, so after you hit -> to skip ahead, you have to wait until it streams the next 10 seconds of video to skip over, before hitting -> to skip ahead the next 10 seconds. Forces people to pirate content just so they can view it in vlc.
I come from a similar but different angle. Have been at 6502, 68k, z80, and some x86/64 over past few decades (mostly demo). I also wonder if this article/post was written by AI - he argues for 6502 that it has 6 registers, and thus it's simple. ANYONE who ever touched 6502 for more than a week will know you're pretty much dealing with three, and that's where the nickname of a sempahore CPU comes from (three registers).

6502 is fun and neat, especially if you want to program those machines. If you want more modern approach, it's not really all that suitable. Do what we did in the 90's then and start with MIPS if you want to follow the path of glory days or just start out with Neon. I'd even argue Z80 with all its registers and complexities is more similar to what you'll find today (far from it, but let's entertain the connection between past and present as OP does).

There's nothing inherently complicated about modern asm. Take FASM, start. It's not complicated, but it gets complex rather quickly which was and will be always true for such low level approach. Then you start macroing and sooner or later you have your own poor man's C on top.

There are roughly two ways to learn programming: top down (start with abstract concept and go down to actual implementation, e.g. SICP) and bottom up (start with the concrete low-level code and let the abstractions naturally emerge).

I studied electronics, so naturally we began with assembly (Motorola HC11). By the end of the course everyone had independently developed their macros to do things like for-loops, so it was a natural progression from there to C. By the end of the C course "C-style OOP" had also emerged naturally, which led to the next course in C++.

The downside of this approach is that it there is no gradual route from there to functional paradigms (or non-imperative in general). Also, one develops the habit of always thinking of how the language works under the hood, which can be counter, productive. E.g. when I was trying to learn Haskell, my mind was trying to understand how the interpreter worked.

Learning assembler is not just about the language, but understanding how the machine works (buses, memory-mapped peripherals, etc). In older platforms this is much simpler, so while ARM instructions can be easier to learn than the CISC instructions of the HC11, everything else is much friendlier for the beginner in the HC11.

How long do you go before you call it quits, and how many white candidates do you need to pass over before you find ‘enough’ black candidates? What consequences need to happen with all those unfilled roles before it is ‘enough’?

Especially since the market of people willing to work the job AND take the pay AND work in the area is not infinite.

We’re talking about a group which went out of its way (apparently) already to recruit folks with the specific colors they wanted + these other criteria.

Don’t forget, everyone else in the country has been having similar constraints and has been trying to do the same thing near as I can tell.

Why do you think they were sharing test answers (it seems), and still only got x candidates in?

And also, doesn’t this entire thing seem actively unfair and racist (albeit to everyone except the chosen minority) instead of what at worst was perhaps a passively unfair and racist situation before? (Albeit to everyone except the majority)

How is that actually any better, except that it pisses off the majority instead of the minority?

Seems like a good way to lose elections, frankly. Or have a majority of the population angry at every minority out there.

I agree. PDP-11 is so much more pleasant, it's not even close. One could make the argument that the addressing modes are conceptually more complicated than what you'd have on a RISC, but the 6502 addressing modes are probably actually harder to understand than the PDP-11's.
No, that doesn’t clarify anything. Copy-pasting irrelevant responses is spam, please stop.

AVR-8 for the win. AVR-8 is highly orthogonal and has a whopping huge 32 register file. Devices like

https://store.arduino.cc/products/arduino-uno-rev3

are affordable and have good tooling. Memory capacity is tiny but it is fast, andthere is a lot of I/O, you can even write console programs that use the serial ports or better, programs that do physical things and also communicate over the serial ports -- in some ways AVR-8 boards are more capable than conventional computers, phones, etc. So far as I can tell, AVR-8 was the last 8-bit architecture, if it has a real weakness it is that, compared to other microcontrollers, it's a dead end because you're going to upgrade to ESP-32 or ARM if you need more.

The 6052 has more registers than the PDP-8 but just barely. Writing compilers for the 6052 is difficult because there just aren't enough registers not to mind a limited set of addressing modes. If you want to do anything interesting with the 6502 you are likely to use virtual machine [1] techniques such as Wozniak's SWEET16 or the atrocious UCSD p-System [3] or Infocom's Z Machine [4]. That kind of stuff is really fun, but so is writing straightforward AVR-8 code.

I have fond memories of the 6809 which supported really advanced software engineering techniques at the time [5] but if I had to pick a classic 8-bit architecture that is easy to find hardware for today it would have to be the Z-80, or the successor eZ80, which I think the only 24 bit micro that didn't suck (had real 24 bit index registers!)

I say this as someone working with go every day.

The fact that I can pass a slice to a func 'by value' and mutate the source slice outside the func is already surprising behavior to most people. The fact that it MIGHT mutate the source slice depending on the slice capacity is the part that really drives it home as bad ergonomics for me.

Overall I enjoy working with go, but there are a few aspects that drive me up the wall, this is one of them.

> People who stress over code style, linting rules, or other minutia remain insane weirdos to me. Focus on more important things.

In my experience when working on and/or leading a team, having good and clear code style/guidelines helps the members of the team understand other people’s code much more easily. It often also serves as much easier to understand historical record when looking at previous contributions. I find it’s best to leverage tooling that enforces team conventions so that programmers don’t have to “stress” about it.
Nah, people just don't feel like giving irrational levels of benefit of the doubt again and again and again and again.

There being support for fascists does not mean fascists are not fascists. In US in particular, Republicans and conservatives were systematically given too much benefit of doubt.
Another consideration: often you want to wait for several types of object (timer, semaphore, file, etc.), so you need one interface where you can do wait([A, B, C, ...]) where A can be a timer and B a semaphore, C a file, etc. Basically, the OS should present a unified interface.
Exactly. No shortage of people leaving the industry because fact based isn't even the goal. Editors push for outrage. That's the point.
Yes, though mostly non-technical.

The submission's article here is a little too concerned with irrelevancies -- BSD vs Linux, graphic equalizers -- and is not concerned enough with the biggest improvement in audio quality over the last twenty years: measurement and realtime correction of audio playback systems.

The simplest example is with headphones, because the measurement can generally happen once per model, rather than each time you move things around in a room. Take moderately capable headphones -- this does not correlate with price, there are good choices for $25 and bad choices for $2500 -- and measure their frequency response from 20-20000 Hz. Construct the minimum set of parametric equalizations to bring them to a target curve -- that's the bit which has gone from deep expensive magic to ten seconds on a modern CPU -- and apply that from now on. Your $25 headphones are now 97% as good as the best available in the world.

The standard cautions, because HN is full of pedantic floccinaucinihilipilificators: the headphones must not distort too much; ear canals differ and must be accounted for individually; preference in target curves differ; Olive and Toole's curves are representative of what a reasonably large sample size of humans "like"; uncalibrated microphones introduce their own distortions. Speakers in rooms must be measured in those rooms, as currently configured in terms of furniture and anything absorptive or reflective at audio frequencies.

The second biggest issue, the one not related to quality as such, is the availability of sufficient and sufficiently cheap bandwidth and storage to allow people to run their own music servers and personal/household music streaming services.

And we can answer the question why quantization works with a lossy format, since quantization just drops accuracy for space but still gives us a good enough output, just like a lossy jpeg.

Reiterating again, we can lose a lot of data (have incomplete data) and have a perfectly visible jpeg (or MP3, same thing).
