Vim is also POSIX-compliant (or very close, with compatibility options, on a POSIX platform). Neovim doesn't have that goal.
Yes. In my day job I work mainly on containers running entirely in data centers we own, they are fully ipv6, it’s very nice to work with.

Then there is this one customer, they are colocated in other ISP owned datacenters, and some of their server maybe have fully IPv6, some may have only IPv4, some may be a mixture of both. Supporting them is a never ending nightmare.
For years I have been printing PDFs off on regular paper and then binding them into books.
1. Print it at work when no one is looking.
2. Get two rigid boards and squeeze the stack of paper together. I customarily use two wooden armrests that originally came from a garden-furniture lounger.
3. Squeeze the paper with just a 1/4-inch showing.
4. Use wood glue and with your finger working like a toothbrush, work the glue into the pages at the gluing end.
5. Get a 14-inch X 4-inch strip of canvas. I use cutoff painter's canvas.
6. Hang all this by the boards and put glue also on top of the canvas strip.
7. When it dries, remove the boards and glue down the sides.
You have a strong, bound book out of those printed pages.
Almost certainly not. I used to work with someone who had to be practically strong-armed into working down his vacation days because he didn't like traveling and, aside from a couple of local-ish hobbies, got bored sitting around home.

I probably got a bit over my travel comfort limit for a while hitting about 160 days/year at peak (including vacation) but I certainly wouldn't criticize anyone for whom that's not their thing.
There is no intent, so it is no more discriminatory than removing autumn leaves is discrimination against trees.
The community is and has discussed this days old news. Lots of comments, upvotes and eyeballs. Over there. Not all of those stories is flagged. This is a dupe.

The posted article doesn’t talk about relationship/proximity to bulls directly. More like a large gathering of people in a plaza and is compared to another festival in Germany.

The parent comment sounds funny but is not directly relevant to the content of the article.
Maybe a long time ago, but just about everything I've used recently supports mDNS for LAN hostnames. If I add a computer named "foo" to the LAN, it's almost certain I can run "ping foo" on another computer 3 seconds later.
In his presentation video [0] Rich explicitly states that his goal is to make electronics approachable for the younger generation. A low barrier of entry in almost all directions is a key component in that in my opinion.

It _may_ be cheaper to build to lower energy efficiency depending on the product and the supply chain. This _may_ result in lower prices.

I do think the promise of cheaper appliances in indeed a cover for the primary target: rolling back climate change related regulation. Remember Trump’s first term? He spent a lot of effort trying to undo whatever Obama had done , not because of the benefits but just because. You cannot underestimate how retaliatory Trump is.

But more specifically Trump has repeatedly made clear his disdain for climate change measures and climate science. What do you think “drill baby drill” is all about? Cheaper gas? Petroleum (coming out of the ground) is already about as cheap as it can get to profitable pump.

Check this out from today’s NYT:

> One discipline that has been targeted more specifically is climate science. President Trump has long downplayed the threats from human-caused global warming. At the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, staff members have been ordered to comb their research awards for terms including “climate science,” “climate crisis,” “clean energy” and “pollution.”
With the current corporatist/oligarch/TPOS feeding frenzy, shamelessly out in the open, will there be any place with good vibes left? :)
IEEE 754 is what you get when you want numbers to have huge dynamic range, equal precision across the range, and fixed bit width. It balances speed and accuracy, and produces a result that is very close to the expected result 99.9999999% of the time. A competent numerical analyst can take something you want to do on paper and build a sequence of operations in floating point that compute that result almost exactly.

I don't think anyone who worked on IEEE 754 (and certainly nobody who currently works on it) contemplated calculators as an application, because a calculator is solving a fundamentally different problem. In a calculator, you can spend 10-100 ms doing one operation and people won't mind. In the applications for which IEEE 754 is made, you are expecting to do billions or trillions of operations per second.

Some SE Asian cities are OK except for the heat/humidity like Singapore, Penang, and Hong Kong. But, yeah, most of the big SE Asian cities are pretty horrible to get around and certainly aren't pedestrian friendly except very locally.
Yes, but another requirement is the algo to be very fast, and dithering takes way more operations than the proposed Fermat PRNG.

You do understand that the Coran state very explicitly that apostate should be killed, and while this is nice to pretend holy books are all about metaphors, it won't change much to the mind of those who think they are acting in good faith with divine commands when they murder heretics.

Of course, atheist compatible doctrines too can can be taken as reason to go kill those who dare to believe otherwise. But they can't pretend they have a book directly inspired by some super being that justify their actions. That is, one can also adulate Marx and kill random dudes because that's fair within their interpretation of das Kapital.

I wasn't the PI, and never said I was. My PhD advisor was the PI. I wrote the grant as a graduate student, and did the research.

It was an NSF grant, with a title on something about Social Computing Systems, in like 2010 or 2011 or so. You can search for it if you want.

It depends on what your goal is, I suppose. If it's just to see the organization of data by administrative boundary, this is fine. For the people this company is selling to, that's probably even the ideal.

However for us in the cheap seats, we most likely as a group want to see number of people impacted. For that, administrative boundaries are the inverse of what we want given administrative boundaries tend to shrink as population increases.

Just goes to show the gap between B2C and B2B. In this case it seems this company knows their target audience, and it's not us.
How is this related to Hacker News?

The entire paradigm difference or "features" which you are lacking is exactly the way the providers want you to funnel you - compare Organic maps (using osm), which only allow you to browse and navigate, to gm or am, which will always prefer you to be served with opening hours and ads of their partners, then only show GO LEFT, WARM, WARMER, you're almost there, now CONSUME&BUY!

And come back to our app again if you need to get a taxi or buy a fare... cmon, sweet convenience!

Then to wake up in a reality where you forgot why north was showing on top of the screen, you prefer it to turn map orientation with your body movements and ofc whisper more dopamine inducing advices.
Fair point. But gaming the regulations is a different problem, one that lies not with the regulations but with enforcement of standards. Taking away these new regulations doesn’t mean that some companies won’t still try to game other remaining regulations in order to cut corners and eke out more profits or for planned obsolescence.
Certainly grocery stores don't need to ask someone else if their freezers are getting power, no? They would have monitors, people and computers, that are doing this job.

Additionally, even as a residential customer, my utility reaches out to me when they suspect there's an outage...
> Yea, caring for one another is such a fossilized concept.

Do not conflate "being efficient" that I was suggesting, and "being mean" that I never suggested. I don't think that social security is a bad concept. And anyway we'll probably all need UBI when AIs are more efficient than us at everything.
Btw, conflating these two concepts of "efficient" and "mean" is one of the roots of Europe's fall.

> You can make your own module and show how efficient it is before deprecating the old one.

Are you suggesting doing A/B testing with laws? Maybe you were trying again to "put this in [my] language", but your proposal sounds delusional. A country's not a product, you can't have two parallel versions.
Saw the thread on Twitter. Kudos to the author for going in so much detail!
I agree that NAT sucks but IPv6 having two different ways of assigning addresses (SLAAC and DHCPv6) with one of them being practically optional (Android doesn't do DHCPv6 for address assignment) does make IPv6 harder than it needs to be.

Then there are crimes against network protocols like NAT66 that are borderline necessary in some situations because terrible ISPs have decided to dynamically alter IPv6 prefixes so they can charge extra for a static prefix.

I still think NAT makes everything harder than it should be, but I get why some people struggle with IPv6 if their ISP is particularly terrible.
The person doesn't have a read on it.
Yea. It's trite, but a lot of things are literally bigger in Texas. It's easy to do really misleading stats around Texas because it just does more of everything than the rest of the US. It can both build more green energy and still pollute more than everyone else.
Power outages are pretty common at least where I have lived in America. It's not uncommon to lose power for 20-30 minutes and sometimes up to a few hours. Outages with storms are extremely common.

More rare act-of-god scenarios like the 2009 ice storm[1] left my family without power for 2 weeks. I'm sure there was some action taken, but I continued to lose power at that house at least 2-3 times a month easily.

While I agree with you, as soon as the semantics of “random” vs “shuffle” enter the conversation, lay people are lost.

To me “shuffle” is a good metaphor because a shuffled deck of cards works a specific way (you’d be very surprised to draw the same card twice in a row!)

But these things are implemented by programmers who sometimes start with implementation (“random”) and work back to user experience. And, for a specific type of technical person, “with replacement” is exactly what they’d expect.

What psychological data from 1381 German millionaires reveals about risk
That's 1 part, yes!

Part 2 is that you can also use an actual server if your workloads happens to be predictable (or is partly predictable). That gives you better cost efficiency for that part of the workload

I don't know what "idea of binary economic choice presented by the current political landscape means." Are you saying that the political sphere is saying that only one of natural gas or renewables could be built? If that's what you're saying, I don't think it's a widespread idea, it's just the Republican idea spread to straw man against building any renewables at all. If it's something else, I'm very interested!

It takes a long time for people to adapt to new reality, and I would expect natural gas to continue to be build even after it is no longer economically feasible until people learn the hard way.

Also, batteries are continuously dropping in cost. Gas might be able to reach a tiny decrease, but it does not benefit from the continual improvement of technology like batteries do.

We are not replacing fossil fuels, yet, but only becuase energy use is expanding, and the energy capacity additions are eating up our entire production capacity of renewables.

As we build out more and more factories for renewables, and as existing natural gas turbines reach end of life, the switchover will happen.

Globally, fossil fuels are barely expanding. The IEA, a famously pro-fossil fuel org, thinks that China reached peak fossil fuel consumption in 2024, and will decrease fossil fuel use in the future even as every consumption grows.

IEA also thinks that more than half of electricity generation will be carbon free, worldwide, by 2030:

https://xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/episode-242-iea-outlook-2...

We are not transitioning the energy system fast enough to get the cheapest possible energy, or to meet reasonable climate goals, but that's entirely because of politics instead of technical or economic feasibility.
I remember reading this article when it was published, it seems like everything said continues to be true about Elm, so much that I don't hear about anyone using Elm these days, as even those who have used it as legacy code have now largely had enough time to migrate away.
> This is a response to what appears to be a complaint that IPv6 is not treated as a first class citizen by some providers, not literally that it's hard.

Last time I've checked, some telecoms such as Vodafone didn't even supported IPv6 yet.
> Texas is the only state in the lower 48 that has no major connections to neighboring power grids.

This may be true but it makes it sound like there's no connections, which is false. There are interconnections between other power grids but depending on their definition of "major connections", it may be technically true.
As someone who used VS Code for many years and before that PyCharm, it only took me a couple of weeks to regain full "professional productivity" after switching to Neovim. But it will take me years to master Vim.
Choice blindness.
Can you share anything more?
Well, I agree to all of that, I just don't read the same thing as you do in those critiques. To me, they do not sound like belittling authors who post here (frankly, of all languages that are used just because they are trendy, I much prefer that it's rust than any of the many runtime typed evaluated languages that used to be popular in the past).

To me the actual target of those critical comments are not the projects at hand but rather that trend in our industry to let popularity lead our decisions, and how easily we form small chapels that fight each others instead of encouraging learning and practicing several competing techs.
Not that it will change anything, though.

The big difference is how the microvm is utilized. Lambda reserves the entire VM to handle a request end to end. Fluid can use a VM for multiple concurrent requests. Since most workloads are often idle waiting for IO, this ends up being much more efficient.

Displaimer: CTO of Vercel here
It’s not clear to me either. I’ve heard for a long time - including in undergrad fluid mechanics - how large groups of humans can be modeled via fluid mech equations. But this article seems to provide more robust evidence of these occurrences IRL.
It more draws parallels between the oscillations seen in crowds in Pamplona and another large gathering in Germany. Which have similar flow properties.

It also seems to specify the density with which these properties emerge
I don’t know about that… some of the clips I’ve seen of rally racing fans, they get closer when they’re already close.
I feel like the headline is seriously misleading. The TL;DR is basically "the authors observed pockets of several hundred people spontaneously behaving like one fluid that oscillated" over an 18 second period. That hardly seems to amount to "predicting crowd movements" in any meaningful sense.

This doesn't mention any weirdness, like how and why did Monero get created, or Bitcoin's use by Silk Road and other anonymous marketplaces, coverage of which should include rug pulls like Evolution market disappearance. I'm sure there are other rug pulls and legal system take downs to mention.

It also doesn't mention the pervasive use of cryptocurrency in grey areas, like sanction evasion, and paying ransomware vendors.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency is also widely used in tax evasion and money laundering, and anonymous illegal drug transactions.

Then there's monstrous uses, like international crime cartels settling up, and financing North Korea's nuclear program.

In short, only half an overview, and an overly optimistic overview at that.

You may get most of that by prompting. You can create really based or emotional characters even with “aligned” models (with a little realignment). Have you ever talked to an LLM that allows system prompting? Heard of [E]RP? You can even teach them to not produce idiotic bullet points.

I won’t argument on the art part, but these common AI stereotypes are not true.
It doesn't help that the use of an IPv4 is a status symbol that indicates that you are willing to spend money on your infrastructure (and are thus not a spammer). If you attempt to run an email server on IPv6, you will see what I mean.

I've had a lot of success bringing a knight out first and playing a generally defensive game.
Thats just not what a segmented run is. Just like any game that allows save-states, you could abuse save states to retry any part of 'the run' changing the entire save file to a different run and 'splicing' them together is splicing, which is not allowed. Tweaking fireball damage is literally hacking the game to get the desired result. Unless you find a way to perform ACE with your inputs. Which is not the case here.
Is there not a possibility that if a neighbouring area has gone down, then your area might be at risk of going down if they need to do maintenace on all surrounding areas to fix the issue? I would imagine its useful for store owners to know the power is out a mile down the road, and might enable them to start making preparations in case they are next.
There’s a pleasantly elegant “hey, we’ve solved the practical functional complement to this category of problems over here, so let’s just split the general actual user problem structurally” vibe to this journey.

It often pays off to revisit what the actual “why” is behind the work that you’re doing, and this story is a delightful example.

I wrote an arbitrary precision arithmetic C++ library back in the 90’s. We used it to compute key pairs for our then new elliptic-curve based software authentication/authorization system. I think the full cracks of the software were available in less than two weeks, but it was definitely a fun aside and waaaay too strong of a solution to a specific problem. I was young and stupid… now I’m old and stupid, so I’d just find an existing tool chain to solve the problem.

But the conversation part is something happening only in your side. Music, books, a good part of modern media seem to be done because the algorithms said that it will be sold more than someone having the intention of having a conversation with you.

And then the AIs are making something that, from your point of view, are indistinguishable from whatever happened before. What makes it more or less real than what was already happening, from your side?
