I'm pointing out that's what the op is doing through their faith in the historical methods of the universities 'community stabilization' efforts. What the op is proposing is exactly what the university did after the Supreme Court shut down the discriminatory laws on residential neighborhoods.
But no one actually says "TypeScript is faster than say ruby". They probably say "node is faster than say ruby" or maybe "bun is faster than say ruby". Perhaps they say "JavaScript is faster than say ruby", although even that is underspecified.

This is an article about discoverability, not data going away or being deleted. This has been an issue for decades; some people with an axe to grind have suddenly found a reason to care now. The data exists but you have to know where to find it and this has never not been the case. Every administration does this and the underlying reasons are pretty banal.

The infrastructure to deliver a copy of the data to everyone that wants it does not exist, not even close. Rationing is achieved by making data hard to find and gatekeeping. Some nominally public data is effectively too large to copy but there are very limited resources to work with it in place. Every time an administration changes out, this gets slightly rearranged and some data is prioritized and other de-prioritized but the underlying issue remains.

There is also a lot of institutional reluctance to make public data actually available because of risk of "misuse", which mostly means doing analysis they don't want you to do with it. I got into a fight with USGS over access to a nominally public data set during the first Obama administration over this issue. Both Democrat and Republican administrations have a habit of wanting to control the narrative that can be spun with the raw data which makes it a bit of a political football.

Which is to say, all of this is a side effect of practical data policy in the US government not being very good. The fact that there are hundreds of exabytes of this data makes it more than a policy challenge.
It's an apt comparison, though ;)
JS can be pretty fast if you let it, but the problem is the fastest path is extremely unergonomic. If you always take the fastest possible path you end up more or less writing asm.js by hand, or a worse version of C that doesn't even have proper structs.

Ask HN: I have excess compute, how can I contribute positively to the Internet?
I have excess compute and bandwidth capacity and thought it would be a great opportunity to contribute positively to the Internet and the broader community. I would like to volunteer those resources towards services/projects/efforts that would be meaningful, or simply fun! (Note: I am NOT soliciting ideas for novel services - though if there is a gap to fill, happy to take a swing). (Another note: I do not have physical gear to give, just what is running at home and some of my time).

Admittedly, I've been in commercialized environments for so long that I am out of touch with what characterized the early web: a more open, community-driven, and less commercialized environment. I only recently heard of the "indie web" and sunk so much time just surfing(!) the web instead of being funneled towards links. That nostalgia motivated me to use my technical skills to do something fulfilling.

(I am purposefully omitting my compute and bandwidth capacity to avoid coloring your expectations or influencing your suggestions. I want to hear your ideas without any preconceived notions about what might be feasible or not. If this thread is ever found by someone with more or less idle compute than me, to be able to contribute as well)
Transpiling isn't the only possibility to run TypeScript code, it's just the way to do it right now. A long time ago interpreting was the most common way to run JavaScript, now it's to JIT it, but you can also compile it straight to platform byte code or transpile it to C if you really want. That you could transpile JavaScript to C doesn't mean all ways of doing it would be equally performant though.

Transpiling in itself also doesn't remove the possibility of producing more optimized code, especially if the source has more information about the types. The official TypeScript compiler doesn't really do any of that right now (e.g. it won't remove a branch about how to handle a variable if its type equals a number even if it has the type information to know it can't have been set to one). Heck, it doesn't even (natively, you can always bolt this on yourself) support producing minified transpiled code to improve runtime parsing! In both examples it's not because transpilation prevents optimization though, it's just not done (or possibly worthwhile if TS only ever targets JS runtimes as JS JIT is extraordinarily good these days).
Curious how this is going to affect Cursor - I'm assuming it'll just be a drop-in replacement and we can expect Cursor to get the same speed-up as VSCode.
I came to say the same, and also why not let it wander around looking for an optimal time.
Love the suggestion, I'll clone it down and start poking around.

I believe your intuition about layout experiments needing to be of different genres is correct. I think you could have a pretty wide range of debugging opportunities (imbalanced belts, inserters fighting for items, insufficient power at full load leading to throughput loss, etc) for the first. The second feels like it would be nicely encapsulated by focusing on optimizing for ratios, although seeing an agent realize that they can get more throughput by simply copy/pasting a block and upgrading a belt would be pretty wild (depending on the recipe, of course). Maybe nuclear power / heat exchanger ratios are a bit too far down the path, but optimizing for copper cable use in green circuits is pretty important and fairly early in the tech tree?
Note that games are based on main loops + events, for which JITs are optimized, while compilers are typically single run-to-completion, for which JITs aren't.

So this might be a very different performance profile.

*edit* I had initially written "single-pass", but in the context of a compiler, that's ambiguous.
Regarding the 2d image - the issue is that these frontier models don't tend to support supplemental image inputs, and the ones that do aren't sufficiently well trained on (high precision) Factorio visuals to add that much information.
> it doesn't show that he doesn't understand the field, since many of the people in the field also think this

Have you ever interviewed people for software positions?

After being a part of the interview loop myself for a while, I am confident that “many of the people in the field” also don’t understand it. Not even talking about the leetcode gauntlet or complex systems design at all, just pure fundamentals and very basics. Not even talking about the larger scale picture of the business .

With that in mind, the fact that “many of the people in the field” he interviewed at “places with high amount of coding” agreed with him doesn’t say much.
Its about the same as my per-line cost. The real reason I suspect is to try to discourage upload usage. T-mobile's main spectrum is deployed with TDD which schedules send and receive on the same frequency. The config they use allocates 80% or 90% of the time to download and is set at network level, not dynamic per device. Basically, they are way more constrained on upload capacity the way things are currently built out.
Zig is another popular neo-language in the same rough space.
Well it’s a function of those that apply and are accepted, and pitches are going to reflect the current hype.

Separate reply that ritual impurity or blind black-box rejection of open source Chromium/Blink seems also to suffer from emotionalism over reason. See

https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/wiki/Deviations-from-...

This is a choice we made. As I wrote in my last reply, I think we would have died trying to get Gecko/Graphene with a Web front end up to competitive scratch vs. Chrome (nm Firefox).

A Firefox fork would have gone over badly with some potentially large number of Mozilla/Firefox fans, and we'd still lack key elements not part of the Mozilla open source (at the time, e.g., Adobe's CDM for HTML5 DRM). On the upside we'd have more UX customizability.

But our choice of Chromium/Blink (via Electron, so we had Web front end upside without Firefox extensions) was not a slam dunk choice. It involved trade-offs, as all engineering does. One downside is we have to audit and network-test for leaks and blunders, which often come from Chromium upstream:

Again, Reagan's 1984 victory (525-13) and Lyndon B. Johnson's in 1964 (486-52) were electorally "resounding," not Trump's margin of 84.
Yeah it's a good question to ask:

Was the startup success rate in 2005 overall higher or was it actually due to YC selecting so well.

Also, success is relatively defined. A $50m exit might be something that gets washed away after a TechCrunch article and a few social media posts.

But that's still life-changing money for the founders. It's not changing the world writ large, but changes the world for a few people.

Besides, there are many successes we never talk about. Wiz is worth $32B (at least Google was willing to pay that), but rarely talked about because they're a "boring" cybersecurity infrastructure company.

I literally dead over this comment... I see the all the time
He says:

- C# Ahead of Time compiler doesn't target all the platforms they want.

- C# Ahead of Time compiler hasn't been stressed in production as many years as Go.

- The core TypeScript compiler doesn't use any classes; Go is functions and datastructures whereas C# is heavily OOP, so they would have to switch paradigms to use C#.

- Go has better control of low level memory layouts.

- Go was ultimately the path of least resistance.
Good to know. I assumed it was all done via objects or things like objects.

So is piping more functional programming?
This looks very promising! Being visually impaired, I often worry that I miss things about form when watching workout videos demonstrating an exercise. If this app could give me feedback to improve my form, that's wonderful.
No clearly labeled pricing link or mention of how much it costs. Stop decepting people like that and simply tell them what they obviously want to know, that is the best marketing you can do. Dark patterns are violence towards other human beings. Thank you.

Otherwise it looks great, but that turned me away. Yes, I know Apple forces you into transparency about it on the app store, but I don't buy products from companies that employ these patterns.

C# can create single-binary executables, even without native AOT.
Go isn't that bad in terms of memory predictability to be honest. It generally has roughly 100% overhead in terms of memory usage compared to no GC. This can be reduced by using GOGC env variable, at the cost of worse performance if not careful.

This is the same problem all over again.
Since you don't execute TypeScript, and TS never has anything to do with the end resulting app, I don't think it was misleading at all.
Code Patterns
There are various ways to (de)couple the compiler to/from vscode, but it's definitely handy to have inline typechecking. Is this possible without running the compiler?
I find these userland libraries particularly effective, because you'll never leave JS land, conveniently abstracting over Workers, WebGL/WebGPU and WASM.
I get the impression that, because Go has a lot of similar semantics to Typescript, it was easier to port to Go than other languages.

From https://github.com/microsoft/typescript-go/discussions/411

> Idiomatic Go strongly resembles the existing coding patterns of the TypeScript codebase, which makes this porting effort much more tractable.

> We also have an unusually large amount of graph processing, specifically traversing trees in both upward and downward walks involving polymorphic nodes. Go does an excellent job of making this ergonomic, especially in the context of needing to resemble the JavaScript version of the code.

Personally, I'm a big believer in choosing the right language for the job. C# is a great language, and often is "good enough" for many jobs. (I've done it for 20 years.) That doesn't mean it's always the best choice for the job. Likewise, sometimes picking a "familiar language" for a target audience is better than picking a personal favorite.

I'm Irish and this is the correct answer
Nice example of how subjective this is. I immediately thought the first one without "else" is clearly the winner.

This is the problem with formatting rules. A codebase needs to have consistent style, even though that might mean nobody is fully happy with it.

I for example can not stand semicolons in JavaScript. It is just a visual clutter that is completely redundant, and yet some people really want it there.

An introduction to Git cliff for release management
There are some external projects that have tried to port tsc to native. stc[0], for instance, was one. Iirc it started out in Go since it had a more comparable type system (they both use duck typing) making it easier to do one-to-one conversions of code from one language to the other. I’m not totally sure why it ended up pivoting to rust.

All life evolves all the time, but there's less -- or practically no -- evolutionary pressure on humans anymore, so bigger changes don't happen as fast.

It's still constant change, but now it's a random walk where all directions are just about as good, so no mutation has a significant edge on survival, so the little changes tend to cancel each other out.
What the author is referring to there as GPT-5, GPT-5.5, and GPT-6 are, respectively, "The models that have a pre-training size 10x greater than, 100x greater than, and 1,000x greater than GPT-4.5." He's aware that what OpenAI is going to actually brand as GPT-5 is the router model that will just choose between which other models to actually use, but regards that as a sign that OpenAI agrees that "the model that is 10x the pre-training size of GPT-4.5" won't be that impressive.

It's slightly confusing terminology, but in fairness there is no agreed upon name for the next three orders of magnitude size-ups of pretraining. In any case, it's not the case that the author is confused about what OpenAI intends to brand GPT-5.
Feedback on the name: I didn't think that it would be about containers. The other platforms you mentioned are more descriptive (jsfiddle, db-fiddle, Go playground, and Rust playground)

> In the mid-nineteenth century, Scanlan notes, fewer than four thousand people owned nearly eighty per cent of Irish land.

> they were largely responsible for explicitly refusing to help and making the situation worse.

Moreso than that, they exacerbated it. The British farmer barons refused to lower their demand on their crops to allow the Irish to consume them in lieu of their lost crops. In addition, they were the ones that pushed heavily for a monoculture on potatoes and a few oats over a diverse agricultural landscape; which allowed the famine to get so widespread.

In other words, the Irish Famine wasn't any worse than most contemporary famines. However, it was a death toll for the Irish because all of the grown food was shipped over the North Channel (or you were imprisoned/killed for refusing to cede it).

There's a reason the (catholic) Irish hated the British so fervently and it was 100% due to liberal involuntary servitude punishments, Cromwellian policies, and the Black 47.
disclaimer: co-founder of topk here :)

not rude at all, it's a common sentiment. TopK gives you all the capabilities under one roof -- text, vectors, filters, embeddings, re-ranking, all behind a single API (so single SDK, single vendor, single bill, single observability plane, etc). This simplifies your integration (less code on your part) and gives you more flexibility to define custom scoring rules (elastic-style) but over text + vectors + any other pre-computed factors. Take a look at [this](https://docs.topk.io/concepts/unified-retrieval#custom-scori...) docs page which goes into detail if you are interested.

I'd be curious to learn about your setup though. Vespa comes with lexical search so what made you choose this combo? Was Elastic already present in your stack before adopting Vespa?

You don’t have to go too far out of the city - more than 10% of the county land area is forest preserve. Inside the city, the far northwest side (along the river) and the far south side (big marsh/beaubien woods) are probably the best bets.

I know that the wooded section between the IC tracks and LSD from 47th street up to Oakwood/Pershing is a hiking trail very popular with birdwatchers. You can keep walking up to the 31st street beach parking lot, but I think it might technically be trespassing ;)

Naturally, if you want really good hiking, there is a daily train from Union Station that stops at the front gate to Glacier National Park. You can also take the South Shore train eastwards - there are 3 stops adjacent to the Indiana Dunes (both the state and national parks).
