This is a fiction people repeat with no citation. A large portion of the population wants m4a when it is explained to them. This "system" failure was specifically our elected reps - bipartisanly - ignoring the needs and wants of the people at the behest of their donors. The democratic process failure was when the two parties solidified.

It wasn't pitchfork wielding illiterate rubes (or whatever undoubtedly out of touch "data driven" parody of what an average person is we're operating with) trying to deny a Black man his legacy, it was that Black man's party collectively wanting to be reelected that gave us the "Buy Insurance Or We Fine You Through Taxes" Act.

If you're on reasonably updated distribution, setting the GROUP in the udev rule might be causing issues. The [uaccess way][0] is to just set the TAG.

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="vendor_id", ATTRS{idProduct}=="product_id", MODE="0660", TAG+="uaccess"

The Arch Wiki also has this note:

> For any rule adding the uaccess tag to be effective, the name of the file it is defined in has to lexically precede /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/73-seat-late.rules.

If your application is running as a different user, or in a Flatpak or snap, you may need some additional or alternative configuration.

This entire thread is a symptom of the lack of interest and stagnation of desktop software APIs. Does the Logitech mouse software need to consume 1GB of RAM so I can map a button? Of course not, but Logitech chose that approach because I dunno, trying to write a simple Cocoa app for Mac was too hard, made their brains hurt, so the complex job of “sending predefined configuration parameters in hex over Bluetooth” turns into “ship a small web browser because web devs are cheap as chips and wRiTe OnCE RuN eVeRyWhErE”

There was Condor for this[1], a couple of decades ago. Condor would checkpoint the process and restart it on another machine entirely user-level (but requiring processes to link to their library) by continuing to forward system calls. It of course had plenty of limitations, and some of their decisions would be considered serious security risks now (e.g. they intercept open() and record the name, and assume that its safe to reopen a file by the same name after migration), but it was an interesting system.

I think migrating cooperating processes would be fairly simple, and the big challenge is rather to decide on the right set of tradeoffs.

pfft engineers are too one dimensional and fixatated on the micro to have anything worthwhile to say about the macro. Most importantly they don't study people. And therefore are completly clueless about how people will react, especially the ones in power will react to what they build.

> I don't think it's even React itself that's the root cause the performance problems, it's using the data store badly (Redux or Mobx or even the new ones like Zustand and Valtio) that either causes components to rerender too often or causes too many components to rerender.

Like I said, it's shoddy development practices. I've seen apps that use one of those mutable object libraries (not any of the ones you listed) and just pass the objects everywhere. Whole app re-render on any state update because of how all of the state is nested inside these mutable mega-variables held by the root of the component tree. I try to chip away at the innermost components and create little havens that use immutable state as they should, but it's going to take years to redo the whole app that way, especially since refactoring isn't a priority yet.

By the way, a cool trick if a component you're using does not use `React.memo` is to memoize the element, because if React sees the exact same (reference-equal) element as the last render, it will not re-render the corresponding component tree. (Element refers to the return type of JSX expressions.) Obviously, only do this if it actually doesn't need to re-render.

I have downvoted your comment because of "the media makes sure to shuffle it under the carpet". These cases are widely reported in national media.

I don’t think anyone reasonably thinks that’s what the poster was saying. Presumably the violence is in creating the type of work environment where you are so oppressed or manipulated that you feel immense pressure to reply in that situation.

If you’re checking your work email and replying to it during labour, I somehow doubt you feel like you were being “asked” and respected as a human being.

But I don’t know the full story from all parties, and I get the feeling you don’t either. I wasn’t judging this particular case in my previous reply, merely pointing out that violence can take many forms and we shouldn’t narrow our thinking of what it means to do harm.
This comment is spot on. I would add that it's not only 1 super smart person, or only 2 people per team, it's a power law. 1 person does the most, a few people do almost as much, then you start getting out into the tail of "normal" people. You can try to hard partition the tail and create an 80/20 rule, but it's fundamentally continuous, and the shape parameter will be different for each organization.

Understanding this distribution of productivity is a great litmus test for a manager. If they say the distribution of productivity is shaped much differently than this, that is a red flag. They probably can't tell who is contributing, and you can't trust them to do the basic functions of hire, retain, fire.

The article reads like it was written by a manager with tunnel vision. A manager's value-add comes from making a bunch of "normal" people productive, while staying out of the way of the few engineers who will deliver >50% of the value anyways. If you only focus on making the normal people productive, you are only doing the additive part of your job, and neglecting the negative part, which is to recognize and not interfere with the high performers. I would imagine this guy goes around creating lots of least-common-denominator systems/processes, which drive away talent and make the high performers less productive.

I'm interested in examining the idea of a programming language that eschews the notion of a callstack and returns to having a single fixed activation record per function. This obviously places a lot of limits on language design, but in return you get a statically-guaranteed upper bound on memory usage, plus weirdo stuff like the ability to hand out references to local data in functions that have already returned (which remains valid as long as you don't call the function again, which I think should be possible to enforce via a borrow checker).

CDC pages on histoplasmosis are still up for the time being:

https://www.cdc.gov/histoplasmosis/about/index.html

Fungal meningitis of all kinds (not just histoplasmosis) is hard to treat. Simply because of phylogenetic relationships, most compounds that target fungal cells are also pretty nasty to our own cellular physiology.

Our arsenal of anti-fungals is quite limited drug resistance to our most commonly used drugs (azoles) evolves rapidly in most fungi. Unfortunately, azoles are also widely used in agriculture (to combat plant fungal pathogens) and there are many drug-resistant lineages of common opportunistic pathogens such as Aspergillus and Candida "at large".
in cases where tiny changes destroy the viability of an organism, most likely mutation would cause the destruction of said organism, and the only versions of said organism that remain are those that are not destroyed by tiny changes.
Maybe?

My mind isn't made on credit scores, though I do feel it might be a case similar to insurance - it's not strictly a zero-sum game, but it's also socially harmful to have such a system be 100% efficient. I.e. with insurance, if everyone was correctly pooled into small bucket that near-perfectly reflects their actual risk profile, insurance would stop making sense - those who need it most wouldn't be able to afford it, and those who could afford it need it the least and would be better off putting that money into savings accounts.

There's a lot of areas in the economy where increasing efficiency past some point just makes systems inhumane and exacerbates social problems.

I feel default risk estimation may just be like that - the more reliable you want your credit score, the more invasive you need to be wrt. what information you collect and how you do it; meanwhile, the system becomes less and less tolerant of mistakes and unfortunate circumstances, while also exerting more control over how people live their lives.

Already the US credit score makes people obsessed about credit, and getting credit cards and loans to improve/game their credit scores with their future mortgage in mind. That very much affects people's life choices at scale. I don't think having everyone leading their lives to optimize their credit score is a way to have a healthy society; conversely, maybe letting the lenders eat a little more risk, and the wealthiest (and most responsible with money, and most morally superior) have a little smaller line, actually improves overall well-being.
I agree. I use the word dangerous to mean there are risks that need to be considered, not that recursion should never be used under any circumstances.

In the general case though, recursion can be tricky to think through, the stack is small, and malicious inputs can be very creative.

Yep, it's pure hyperbole. Maybe for generating starter templates I can 70% out of AI, but once I'm building on an established project, it's much more limited to 30%. This is due to large projects taking too much context for an LLM to clearly understand feature development.
little history: When we were getting ready to do an API at DigitalOcean I got asked "uhm... how should it feel?" I thought about that for about 11 seconds and said "if all our APIs feel as good as S3, it should be fine" - it's a good API.
I'm not sure about the case of RCS, but I've seen some instances of a none cipher being better for compression and deduplication, because the encryption messes with the data.
Ask HN: Does vibe coding work for your tech stack?
I'm a happy vibe coder and I write 100% of my source code via Cursor IDE by prompting in English since August 2024. My tech stack is React-Typescript with simple Firebase.

I'm a senior engineer doing React development since 2015, so I'm capable of writing the code myself. I've found, that I'm more productive if I guide this process using English from a middle to high level of guidance. I frequently mention specific names/properties/commands in my prompts. I mostly do bite-size queries. However, I almost don't touch the source code with bare hands anymore.

As I discussed this topic with friends, I've met people with polar experiences. Some of my friends who need to do web apps using React-TS are very happy with vibe coding. They report productivity boost. Some people even report ability to do things they couldn't do otherwise: desingers, product managers, backend engineers.

However, I've also heard of many negative experiences. People who write for Android, iOS, Telegram bots, Rust, even some Python scripts, report small to zero productivity boost and report uselessness of current Cursor-like experience.

I suspect that's because even Sonnet-3.7 is weak for languages and frameworks which aren't top-1 (top-3?).

If you've tried vibe coding for the last 6 months, can you mention your tech stack and whether your experience was positive or negative?

Coal ash is not classed as radioactive and it was abundant and cheap as a useless by-product of burning coal.

I can guarantee you, nothing is simple about S3. I bet engineers spend months on a single configuration change to the underlying subsystems.
Sure it does, it competes on many fronts like Office (vs docs), Sharepoint (vs Google Drive), Azure (vs GCP) and many others.

The problem with enforcing resellability on digital goods is the technical ability to copy them.

If I have full ownership of a digital good, then I have the ability to copy it.

Any limitation of my ability to copy requiring removing some control from the owner and escrowing it with another party (e.g. DRM).

As much as I hate to say it, allowing digital good resale is a good use for a blockchain: uniquely identifying an instance and then keeping a decentralized ledger of who owns it at any time.

However, there would still need to be a carrot to make this system attractive.

If there isn't, then why wouldn't people just create infinite copies off-ledger and ignore it?

And without any viable digital goods ownership system, who wouldn't companies default to the current model of only offering licenses / subscriptions?
> The author is a native Spanish speaker, so that would be unexpected.

Huh, apologies. I have a Dutch friend who has similar quirks in their English, and the article mentions Dutch by name (in "A Dutch operating system"), so I assumed the author was Dutch or that that quirk came from Dutch influence.

For what it's worth, Dutch is not the only language that does this, I'm pretty sure German does as well, and a bunch more. So you may be correct.

Same as you, I think. Invested in 2013… I have sold more and more shares as the market cap reached ridiculous levels compared to other car companies, and as I felt Musk was over promising and under delivering more and more.

He has mislead both investors and customers for years, but his recent behavior and statements have been, at the very least, odd. Even disregarding politics, I don’t believe that he is steering Tesla in the right direction, and he is not behaving as a responsible or serious CEO with a clear meaningful vision for the company, or as someone who even cares about it.

Not sure if something happened to his brain, but it doesn’t feel normal, calm or rational.
