It's also huge in web dev, graphics, marketing, etc. Every single web dev I know uses a Mac. The hardware guys prefer some Linux variant or another, though.

Windows has WSL, but otherwise it's a lot easier to run a lot of the CLI tools on a Mac, while still having access to a polished GUI and mainstream apps (Adobe and Microsoft, etc.)
Non-smudged photos yeah, otherwise you could say any smudge of colors is any animal you claim.
OEM EV tires often require replacement well before 50,000 miles. And EVs really are heavier than similar form-factor ICE vehicles, completely separate from any notion of "conversions" because it's equally true across different makes/models.

I know these things because I own an EV, and did a massive amount of research before purchasing one, and also now have years of direct experience owning one.

Similarly, I know that Amtrak fare pricing actually isn't "uncompetitive with airlines" for popular routes.

I know this because I have taken many hundreds of Amtrak trips over the past 25 years, with destinations spanning 11 different states, and in every single case the fare pricing was better than flying.

Similarly, celebrities are far from incognito in low-rise neighborhoods, and their preference for low-rise buildings has absolutely nothing to do with avoiding paparazzi. It's not unusual to see celebrities in NYC, many even ride the subway.

I know this because I actually live here. The same way I know that there are many very large high-rise buildings in boroughs other than Manhattan, and I know that there's constant construction of new high-rise buildings in NYC.

This is why it's relevant whether you live here: you lack the frame of reference for many aspects of this discussion, and your comments frequently include objective falsehoods as a result. I'm not going to continue replying here, as there's no point in doing so under those circumstances.
BRCM generally has an account manager (or several) for specific companies in the Enterprise. This is the target customer they're after, not volume. There's no profit in volume support here so BRCM doesn't waste their time and resources.
Google started using okrs at under 50 people because one of the board members was intel veteran. Not sure about the early years since i wasn’t there for that regrettably but in 2011 when i joined my impression of okr process was that it’s complete and utter bs and giant waste of everyone’s time. iirc google+ hit their okrs swimmingly…
> The only still living variant is AIX.

This is incorrect.

The thing you have to understand about “AIX” is that historically it was not a single codebase, it was just a common brand for multiple unrelated IBM Unix offerings. (DB2 is the same story.) One of those offerings was AIX/ESA for IBM mainframes - and that was indeed based on the OSF/1 microkernel. But AIX/ESA died in the early 1990s-it was replaced by turning MVS aka OS/390 into a certified Unix, a role carried on by z/OS today, and later on by z/Linux as well. Whereas, the only AIX that survives to this day is the RS/6000 branch which isn’t based on OSF/1, and has a classic monolithic kernel design. Its distant ancestor, AIX version 1 for the RT PC, did use a microkernel (VRM), but that microkernel was very different from Mach and OSF/1 (it was written in a PL/I dialect, PL.8, that’s how alien it was)
Totally agree. Small clients need the most hand holding we've found so they're cut loose pretty quickly. Seems BRCM does the same with VMWare.
Yes, I was agreeing and expanding on the point.
Responding mostly to your linked comment. I think (educated guess) that there are two primary factors. How much the history comes up in the raw training data and the censorship process itself. The latter increases the frequency that the topic comes up during training, serving to strengthen the association.

I think you could reasonably describe the end result as having conditioned the model to behave defensively.
Within the context of iNaturalist. Anyhow, cheers to the iNaturalist team, the work they do and their Seek app. It’s one of the only apps I recommend friends to give to their children to explore, appreciate, and learn about the natural world around them. I just hope they stay relevant in the ChatGPT world. TBH I often use a combination of the two when trying to ID something out in the wild, and ChatGPT many times does a better job.
This is a bane of my business. We’re a small business, but we’re a technology business. When we use a product we tend to use advanced features. Things like auditing and log streaming to SIEM, enforced SAML SSO, stuff like that. We tend not to need support, and when we do it’s almost always because something is broken on the vendor end.

In the past six months I’ve filed exactly one support ticket. With Microsoft, due to a persistent internal error when calling a specific Azure API, which only they could fix, and which they did after about a week and a half.

There is virtually nothing we can’t handle internally except for the the issues any customer couldn’t handle.

The irony is that not having an avenue for SMBs makes SMBs sometimes go elsewhere and either spend more money (sometimes with a competitor), or missing out on basically “free” revenue.

I understand the logic but it drives me crazy at times.
If you enjoy tedium it runs really well on ARM Windows in Parallels.
Doubtful, yet they'd probably rebuild your vacuum if you brought it to them.

There are a glut of hyper-specialized businesses around here. Russians run all of the appliance repair shops. Israelis ran all cell phone repair places until COVID (now we have few at all). These all took digital payments.

Iranians/Turks around here run a bunch of rug shops that never get any customers yet linger for decades. I don't know a single person that owns a rug.

The Chinese run donut shops that are cash only, never see any foot traffic, sell terrible stale donuts, and don't even have seating. Vietnamese run all the nail salons and both change owners and personnel every few years.

Disney race-swaps protagonists of old movies that predictably flop instead of creating the next Frozen, and Concord burned $400m on a game that only 25k people wanted ($1m revenue). How is this sustainable?

It could be money laundering, but some of these businesses look like they're intended to fail. I'd sooner suspect some other financial engineering going on. H1-B fraud or SBA loans-for-foreigners schemes.
Indeed we have it tough out here. I like the excitement, though, I must say! Funny to find the sentiment here on HN, though!

I swear I have said this like ten times on this website since the election, but once again, since apparently people still don't get this:

Trump won the electoral and popular votes with 312 (58%) of the former and 77,303,568 (49.81%) of the latter, which supports saying "over half" compared to Harris' 226 (42%) of the former and 75,019,230 (48.34%) of the latter. However the population of the United States is 340.1 million of which 244.6 million are voting eligible. Some quick back-of-napkin math then will tell you that while Trump took both the popular and electoral votes enough to win, that victory represents at best the will of approximately 31% of the eligible voters. And, that's strictly the popular vote, which doesn't actually win the election. Democrats struggle in every election because of decades of meddling on the part of Republicans with regard to how electoral votes are awarded and calculated, gerrymandering in every state, anti-voter, anti-minority policies that disenfranchise people on an industrial scale from the right to vote they're entitled, etc. etc. etc.

And you can say "well the Democrats should be working harder to undo it!" and I totally agree, but between the raw numbers on the ground, the well-documented Southern Strategy that has turned formerly pro-labor and progressive swathes of America into hard right strongholds via churches, and the various culture wars that have utterly melted American's brains to a great degree spearheaded by rest-in-piss Rush Limbaugh and the rest of the reactionary media sphere he helped weld into being, it is not remotely a fair statement to say that "over half of America voted for this knowing what would happen." Some did, for sure. Not half, not even fucking close.
No problem, just added PWA to my todo list.

Regarding the different drum kits, this is actually on the top of todo list, right know i'm working on Yamaha RX5 and Oberhiem DMX. They should be available in a day or two. Any drum machines you recommend?
I also had ideas of an operating system design and the capabilities I had considered uses the same features of interposition and delegation as seL4 does. There are other advantages than just what they list there; for example, you can apply a filter to audio, or you can use proxy capabilities for implementing network transparency.

The real-time stuff is something I had considered as allowing as an optional implementation; my idea was for a specification rather than only a single implementation.

Another feature I wanted though, is that all programs operate deterministic except for I/O. Without I/O, you can't determine the date/time or how long a program takes, can't check for processor features (if you use something that the hardware does not support though, the operating system may emulate it), etc.

I had thought to use a mixture of hardware support and software support to implement it, though. (There is a note in the document about attacks with capability implemented in hardware, but I do not have the referenced document and I don't know if that attack applies to what I am thinking of doing.)
For C++, that's only valid for some subset of types, which currently can't be expressed with type traits. "Address-free" has a close enough definition in the context of atomics.

Trivially moveable types are probably sufficient (at least, I can't construct a case where being trivially copyable is needed), but not necessary; there are many things a special member function can do without caring about the address.

In practice, the main problem is that you can't use private mappings (which are the default and for good reason); you have to use shared mapping, which are very finicky to set up and cause infelicities with `fork`. [This does make me wonder how reflinks/`copy_file_range` interact with `mmap` and the page cache.]

Really, you should just fix all your APIs to take an `iovec` array.
That sounds like pathologically bad behavior, using an amortized-linearly growing amount of memory to hold a constant amount of data? (Moreover, this is perhaps the most common use case for a queue.) It may be a correct description of the code, but it can't be a correct algorithm.
I use an app called Clearspace on iOS - it hooks into the screen time API and prompts you with a "breathe in / breathe out" timer before it allows you to unblock the app. It also lets you unblock it for a specific configurable time period, and auto-closes the app once that period expires.

I found it gives me just enough friction that most of the time, the impulse to open the app passes while I wait for the breath timer to run out. Simply using the OS screen time limit on its own is not really enough, because it's too easy to dismiss and override the block. Having a brief timer to help you consider whether my action is intentional or driven by anxiety or thoughtless boredom really helps.
Huge fan, awesome work, I use it all the time!
Why are the Arxiv and Nature versions so different, even the text?
I would not call gvim obscure, but I always wonder why people do not recommend NEDIT for newbes on Linux.

I have xconsole running now, I have cron jobs that echo out stats to it every so often. It is a very nice and lite conky replacement.

And a few of these I still use, like xv, xload, xclock, xterm, xless, xmessage and xmahjongg. A few I never heard of.

It is too bad all these cool little tools will be gone for Linux once Wayland becomes a thing.

Hi Don. I think this stuff is great, and applaud your work, so don’t think of this as a slight (depending on the answer, of course): how practical is this? Again, if the answer is approximately “not at all practical”, that’s fair, but I guess I could also see it fitting somewhere on a spectrum like emacs vs vi, QWERTY vs Dvorak, etc…
Indeed. The author continues:

> Maybe its reports could have been embedded in other analytics data passed to Apple later, but there was absolutely no evidence that the results of liquiddetectiond went beyond the confines of my Mac.

I feel like this is plausible. Apple /could/ record any non-zero results from this daemon in some regular diagnostics package and upload it to their database of hardware UUIDs + associated Apple ID.

But at the same time, why bother? If the user brings in a laptop for service they'll find out about any liquid damage then, surely it's recorded in some unclearable diagnostic area of memory. Not beaming this data on demand seems in line with Apple's privacy etiquette, but we may never know for sure.
So for a while I briefly worked the same company as Aaron Kambietz. During my time there, I asked him how the developers came to the conclusion to use a vertex-coloured skybox like they did in the article.

If my memory serves, he said the primary reason was wanting to hit a particular memory budget for the appropriate minspec at the time. Or, they felt any memory dedicated to textures was better spent on the spaceships. The vertex data was hand-authored by the artists tracing over original artwork (I think on a Wacom-style tablet). He stressed that it was arduous work and took a few weeks!
As a metric user, this is an interesting point that I haven’t heard before, and I think the other responses don’t really engage with it. Yes, familiarity means this isn’t much of a daily problem – you just use divisions of the unit that are most appropriate. But the size of the base units for volume, mass and length don’t really match up well from a human day-to-day perspective.

Wouldn’t it be nicer if a litre, a gram and a cubic metre of water were equal, rather than 1 cubic metre, 1000 litres, 1,000,000 grams?

Side note that in Europe drinking products are often labelled in centilitres whereas Australians use millilitres. I wonder whether this indicates some difference in the way the two groups think about volume, or maybe it is just the fallout of some other constraint, like translations limiting the space available.

Still, the ergonomics seem to be on the side of Metric, taking into account the ease of conversion between units when all are base ten.

To be clear, Hyper-V is not "free" as in "no cost". It's "free" as in "no additional cost": Most who have Windows VMs in a virtual datacenter have Windows Server Datacenter licensing which allows infinite VMs per processor core. So if you have Windows Server VMs, you can already use Hyper-V as your hypervisor, but many still prefer VMware because it's seen as more stable and secure than using Windows hypervisors underneath your Windows VMs. VMware certainly adds value, but not infinite value, when most of its customers already are licensed for Hyper-V anyways.
Hi! I was very confused about Glycol until I discovered that the desktop version of your site shows way more information than the mobile one. At least in Chrome for Android, you can only select demos to play and click the GitHub link. And GitHub recommends visiting glicol.org, so why do so many people rave about Glycol? Now I know :)

I was wondering if you would be adding any IDE-like features. I like a few features in Sonic-Pi and noticed a few attempts to make a VS Code plugin for it. (I wish I could contribute myself, but my music production skills are atrocious and I mostly rely on GUI-based software to carry me.)

Congrats on an awesome project! (And you, OP, too!)
> would be akin to how most humans see a ball in flight and just instinctively know (within reason) where the ball is going to go?

Up to a point .. and that point is more or less the same as the point where humans can no longer catch a spinning tennis raquet.

We understand the gravitional rainbow arc of the centre of mass, we fail at predicting the low order chaotic spin of tennis raquet mass distributions.

Other butterflies are more unpredictable, and the ones that land on a camels back breaking a dam of precariously balanced rocks are a particular problem.

If the build quality is OK the pricing is quite good, in France with 32Go/1To is 650€ cheaper than an equivalent MacBook Air.
I have not looked for a proper CPU comparison but I don't that it matters that much for a device of this type, and as you said, with Apple Silicon you lose a lot of the performance once you venture away from optimized software (which is still quite restrictive).

Considering the (relative) failure of the ARM push for Windows PCs I doubt ARM is going anywhere in the consumer market (that probably means it will stay niche in the server market as well but we'll see).

How can we get more users to embrace the idea of free pet-sitting and use our app more often?

Once users find matches, they don’t need the app.

If they can’t find matches, they don’t need the app.

If they just want to hire someone because they don’t want to pet sit, they don’t need the app.

If they want to pet sit for money, they don’t need the app.

If they already have a strong social network (family for example) they don’t need the app.

It is not that the cost of pet sitting isn’t an issue for some people, it is that the only people who will get free pet sitting are those willing to exploit the goodwill of others, Because when giving pet sitting is the cost of getting pet sitting, the pet sitting you get is not free. Good luck.
I don't have any problems with the way Windows looks. I'd ask you what operating system looks better. And if the answer is macOS, I'd agree with you, I'd say yes, a painting can be pretty too, and about as useful as macOS.
I take it you think Trump is cleaning up the deep state or something. I think it’s a lot more likely he’s building it.
You absolutely can do that in C++ with consteval + template, what's more, you don't even need consteval, constexpr will suffice:

#include <cstdio>

namespace detail {
template<size_t N>
struct Capitalize {
char data[N];
constexpr Capitalize(const char (&tag)[N]) : data{} {
for (size_t i = 0; i < N; i++)
data[i] = tag[i];
data[0] &= 95;
}
};
}

template<typename T, size_t N, const char (&tag)[N], size_t count>
struct MyType {
static constexpr auto capitalized = detail::Capitalize(tag);
constexpr auto name() const {
return capitalized.data;
}
T array[count];
};

int main() {
static constexpr char hello[] = "hello";
MyType<int, sizeof(hello), hello, 10> value{};
std::puts(value.name());
}

I'd agree that zig's comptime encompasses many of C++'s features, and I appreciate the approach they took to new features by way of builtins (like @typeInfo + @Type for reflection), but this is not a good example.

Furthermore, why is type traits among the list of features that you claim is subsumed by comptime? not only is that not the case, but type traits are not so much a feature of C++ as they are of its standard library, implemented using templates (a feature of the language).
