I had a Canon about 20 years ago. Getting it to work with Linux was incredibly difficult and finicky, and required some piece of proprietary software at some point. So my gut feeling about Canon is "never again", though the situation may have evolved.
AFAIK you can publish even Win32 apps on Windows Store.
I'm no electrical engineer but would that really be so much cheaper? A buck converted is essentially the same thing where the transformer is replaced by an inductor. You get rid of a bit of copper but all the power electronics to do the high-frequency switching is still there. Together with most of the components.

They "estimate" this would save 60% on galvanic link, and on the rest, you can save another half. So that would mean you are at 20% cost plus some ground wire fault detection HW.

> if a key leaks, all past messages can be decrypted

Not to mention, if you revoke a key (maybe because you lost your laptop and want to be proactive about security), without any authenticated timestamping service in the mix, all past messages and signatures can no longer be trusted, regardless of the revocation date. That's why when you revoke a key on github, all your previous commits' signatures turn red.

I've never understood why no one's succeeded in doing anything about this after all these years.

I worry that all the replies to my comment will be claims about what percentage of the smartest and most productive people will want to move to the US in practice, thereby avoiding debating the central point.

The first reply asserted that my comment was based on a “ridiculous premise” without addressing the principle.
Same thing with the Expanse series. The TV version captured Ilus very well I think, and some of the creatures with a completely different biology. Especially the terrifying idea of something as simple as some algae type stuff that ends up making everyone blind for a certain time, because why wouldn't our eyes be an attractive for alien microorganisms.

Keen eye, initially I did sort the right split from left-to-right. But also over time the fat from the fingers affected the color as well, so I figured it's a loosing battle anyway.

Or receive.. depends how you look at it. Big players like Microsoft and Google defines what goes into spam box.
And it’s also pretty clear that humans typically don’t crank this type of thing out in 15min. The current narrative around AI is a lot more about augmenting our work and making parts of it faster. It can create buggy code in almost no time, which leaves plenty of time for bug fixing, iterations, and optimization.

Humans can also create buggy code quickly, but it takes a while! And you still have to do bug fixing and optimization after you think you’re finished.
Pointers finally clicked for me when I started doing things with a normal int and treat it as a memory address. I forgot the details, but I remember making a Stack Overflow post about it. The people on Stack Overflow didn't seem too happy with my program from a software engineering standpoint, not realizing I was just trying to really test some ideas of what pointers actually are.

Actually what happened here is that I saw the first small-grey-text paragraph, dismissed it as not interesting, saw the second such paragraph, dismissed that as well, and when it came to the 4th one which contains the links you're referring to I was in auto-dismiss mode. After your saying the links are in the article, I had to reread it twice until I found the links.

I now see there's been a bunch of back and forth. Good. (in a sense)

The IETF is not a committee process and your claim of "which if anyone knows anything about IETF it's that" is very likely something coloured by your bubble and context. Committee means the members of the standard body itself design things. The IETF doesn't even have members. It's the most open standards body I'm aware of (no idea how W3C works though, maybe they're even better.)

The IETF looks like a committee if you contrast against working without any standardization process, e.g. single project github protocol development. This works until it doesn't. It looks like MessagePack sat on making a string type/tag for more than 2 years; I don't know the story but that's not great either way. I've found a bunch of discussion now and honestly I can empathize with both "sides". What I don't understand is the hostility at the fork. IETF people needed something for use in other protocols, with a standards doc to reference. They had a choice of either making up something completely new, or base it on an existing design. They acknowledged MessagePack as a good design and extended upon it to fix issues, after those weren't addressed there. What's the problem?

And of course it's not compatible. It's not intended to be, it's not MessagePack, just MessagePack-derived.

> It turns out someone can take yr serialization format, rename it, and standardize it entirely without your consent, so no thank you.

That's the most pessimistic view possible, and ignores that changes were made. An optimistic view would be, someone acknowledged your serialization format as good, extended upon it, and took on the hassle to standardize it.
As another user has already mentioned, deferred functions run even when a panic unwinds the stack.

And semantically, a panic doesn't even need an orderly shutdown. Again: A panic should ONLY be issued if the application enters a state where continuation of normal operation is not possible, and/or may even be ill advised. "Orderly" operations are, by definition, no longer possible at this point.

> incoming emails didn't work from Microsoft but they fixed that in 0.13

Yeah, this one was interesting. It looks like microsoft updated their TLS
stack to TLS 1.3, but incorrectly, breaking TLS connections to Go TLS
servers. I don't know how to contact Microsoft about it, but others have
raised issues with Microsoft. Mox got a workaround (disabling session tickets
for SMTP) so Microsofts TLS stack wouldn't abort the connection anymore. This
is a downside of being a small guy: You have to work around the bugs of the
big guys.

'Appreciating' is a very hard thing to do. I think it's an impossible task for one man. Not only do you oversee many people, but there are so many dimensions you can appreciate in someone.

The way I see it is that for a healthy office, you need to have peers who appreciate each other in a vocal way so that the managers/leads can hear it. Cause not everyone sees what you see. You notice someone is really good with something? See someone keeping up with the literature? Find a way to bring it up in group setting. It's not a given that everyone notices what you notice.

The thing about appreciation is that you can't just say it about yourselves. It always need someone else. You cannot say things about yourself other than your outputs cause it'd only look petty. Only when someone else says it, it's considered. Of course, be proper with it.

All I'm saying is appreciation is a shared responsibility. And if you do it right you might also become someone's favorite person.

> Each new training from scratch is a perfect blank slate [...]?

I don't think training runs are done entirely from scratch.

Most training runs in practice will start from some pretrained weights or distill an existing model - taking some model pretrained on ImageNet or Common Crawl and fine-tuning it to a specific task.

But even when the weights are randomly initialized, the hyperparameters and architectural choices (skip connections, attention, ...) will have been copied from previous models/papers by what performed well empirically, sometimes also based on trying to transfer our own intuition (like stacking convolutional layers as a rough approximation of our visual system), and possibly refined/mutated through some grid search/neural architecture search on data.

This pre-dates the pandemic by 20 years. There are articles as far back as 2000 that detail the impending collapse Chinese civilisation. To the point where it's now become a meme (the economist are notoriously known for their bad predictions on this subject)

For me, it's not just about repetition, but also repetition of different explanations of the same concept.

Sometimes one gets stuck, and a different explanation, previously completely incomprehensible, gets one "unstuck" enough to make all the other explanations start making more sense.

Sometimes you realize midway through that there's some other concept you don't fully understand (e.g. you can't fully understand why an attention layer looks like it does without understanding matmul or tensor ops). Getting some explanations of these other concepts can also get one unstuck.

I imagine this as every explanation containing little "nuggets" of knowledge at various "skill levels", but you can only grasp at those that are slightly beyond yours at the moment. Too high and nothing makes sense, too low and it's obvious.

As you re-read the explanation, you understand more, and so more "nuggets" are available to you. Sometimes the explanation is too hard, there's nothing to grasp onto and you're stuck, this is where other explanations, or explanations of other concepts, can push you over the edge.

Brain drain happens when the quality of life in a particular country dips below some standard. It's relative to other countries only up to a point. I strongly doubt it is possible to increase quality of life (albeit for a minority) in one country so high to outweigh the utility of staying put in other countries. You certainly can't do it in a democracy: who would vote to increase the quality of life specifically for a small group of immigrants? I'm pro immigration btw but people are not going to vote against their own interests to such an extent.

I think it is easy to highlight the mistake by rephrasing the argument as OP did. By rewriting it that way, I think it is easy to see that the fallacy lies in taking some specific observations and saying that those are valid in general, without providing a solid explanation as of why that should be the case. Another way of rephrasing it could be, "I have evidence of some statistics-based decisions that were wrong, therefore all statistics-based decisions are wrong". If a person still doesn't get it, put it as "I have evidence of you being wrong once, therefore you must be always wrong (including in this specific case :D )".

Well no it's not lazy at all. I'll tell you why.

It funnels you down the cloud route pretty heavily which is at least in what we do is incredibly dangerous and leads to regulatory problems. What we end up with is a nightmare tangle of GPOs where we don't know what feature is going to be turned on next in a trivial update which will end up with our mandatory signed in O365, because that's how you have to pay for it, pushing content to OneDrive or something. Even the file save dialogs switched a while back to push cloud first and we had a nightmare even though OneDrive was disabled (!) because no one could use it suddenly.

THAT is a complete dealbreaker.

As mentioned, the calendar and contact management is so bad that we ended up using iCloud anyway for that.

There's also a better win for us which is moving to R with tidyverse. Less footguns, can work with people via a VCS fine, can wrap a whole data pipeline in automation in a makefile, doesn't go down for 2-3 days a year.

>Anecdotally, a lot of people don't really understand/care about bicycle gears, and stick it to the heaviest and call it a day (on city bikes it's not that heavy, they can dance when it's tougher, and just get off and push the bike when it's really hard). We've seen the same cycle for cars, where people only caring about going from A to B will enjoy automatic transmissions better.

...Where do you live? This is completely foreign to most of Europe, where I havent seen anyone stuck to one gear (except hipsters on fixies, making a fashion statement), and almost everyone drive manual.

How can it be possible that "lot of people" where you live aren't able to do those very basic things? To the point of being unable to bike correctly (ever tried to start a bike in the highest gear)?

Sure and so did a bunch of innocent people as well as other revolutionaries, while other aristocrats survived. The killings were at times quite indiscriminate.

My point was that Marie Antoinette wasn't particularly more detached than the aristocracy in general, that she bore almost no personal blame for the catastrophic situation before the revolution and that she was hated basically from the moment she came to France due largely to anti-Austrian sentiment. The vitriol to which she was subjected during the revolution was not exactly proportional to anything grounded in facts.
If it were intrinsically valuable then it would still be valuable if you took away the businesses. Would your healthcare software be valuable if there was nobody to produce the video course? Would your youth group be valuable if nobody attended it? What are you empowering the youth to do? Also write software to empower the next generation? It has to end somewhere.

You can't eat software. You can't eat gold either, but if society collapsed I bet you'd still be able to trade a gold ingot for a carrot, because it maintains a modicum of value. I doubt you'd have many takers for a JPEG codec you just wrote, though, and that's far more generally useful software than business software which is what most software is.

Show HN: Yuki-no – GitHub Action that makes docs translation projects trackable
Hey HN, I created Yuki-no while maintaining the official Vite Korean documentation translation project.

Translation work requires meticulous tracking of changes in the original documentation. Without this, translators might translate incorrect content or miss important sections.

Previously, we used Ryu-Cho(https://github.com/vuejs-translations/ryu-cho) for tracking. This open source tool uses GitHub Actions to register changes in the original repository as GitHub Issues in the translation repository. However, after using it for nearly two years, I identified several issues:

1. When GitHub Actions failed, all in-progress commits were lost, causing us to miss portions of the original content
2. The approach for filtering target files was very limited (based on `startsWith` string prefix comparison)
3. Inability to set labels on GitHub Issues made them difficult to distinguish from other issues at a glance
4. No way to identify whether translation-related commits were released, potentially causing premature translation of unreleased content

Yuki-no solves these problems with:

- Improved Action stability through batch processing (verified to work correctly for over 200 commits)
- Automatic recovery from failures in subsequent runs
- Release tracking feature
- Glob pattern-based target files filtering
- Custom label settings for created issues

It's currently used in:

- Official Vite Korean documentation project
- Vue.js Korean documentation project
- Vite documentation translation template

Example issues: https://github.com/vitejs/docs-ko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%...

If you're planning to start a translation project, need help with migration or configuration, or are interested in the project, feel free to reach out through GitHub issues or email me at to@shj.rip!
It's not trivial to go back in versions to check for improvements or regressions, because some optimizations can introduce bugs that is later discovered, or you introduce a vital feature that degrades performance... So you can make your life easier by having automatic performance tests that are run before each release, and if you discovered a performance issue you write a regression test as usual... What I'm trying to say is: Do performance testing!

Sure but the tech CEOs success is an anomaly : most if not all the people you cited were able to get to the top because the context was highly exceptional (because personal computing and internet were a total greenfield).

(Also not to mention that, beyond those exceptional circumstances, most of them were already coming from pretty rich families)

Most companies in the world are not ran like this.

SvelteKit + Netlify. The editing workflow for my blog is slightly cumbersome, because I write locally in Obsidian (just in case I ever redesign my website again, nothing is lost) and then copy/paste into VSCode, then publish.

Once it's published, Brevo automatically picks up the RSS Feed to send out my daily newsletter, since I switched from long-form sporadic blog posts to a shorter-form daily newsletter.

I've used Hugo/Jekyll in the past and liked it, but I'm used to SvelteKit now so I just stick with it, plus I could always hook up a Headless CMS still if necessary.

Because that is semantically what a panic means in Go. See the link to effective go I posted you elsewhere in this thread.

I am well aware that it can be used in other ways. Same as I can say "car" when talking about a mainline battle-tank. Sure, a car has an engine, runs on fuel and drives on land. There are similarities. The words still mean very different things.

And I am also sure there have been instances of someone using a tank to go order food at a drive-through. Doesn't mean that it is semantically correct to do so, or advisable.

What are these webpages exposed in this video supposed to do¹? Display some text, pictures and maybe some videos. How does it feels it term of complexity and hardware requirement compared to a 1998 FPS which achieved impressive gamer-experience breakthrough incorporated into a customer grade product? Does it seems more fair as a comparison?

Now, obviously you can’t expect all webdeveloper interns out there to reach the level of Valve engineers in 1998, sure. But the frameworks they are asked to use should give them the sober way as the easy path, and let more complex achievements still accessible in the remaining computational resources.

I've found out that sometimes there is an "echo" of sorts when hearing or reading something. The first instinct one has is to say "what?" followed by "ah, you said flan, not plan". But if I stay silent, I can get access to that "echo" and find out "on my own" what the person just said.

Sorry if this explanation is convoluted. There is a lot going on in the brain!
