I'm so happy to read this, I've been thinking about this question for a while now, and I think it would help a lot:

Big companies where revenues are based on marketing would collapse, the market fragments (which is good), smaller companies are created instead, better diversity of local products and services. Better wealth distribution. More money for the government, hopefully better public services.

With less flashy products and services, people have a better purchasing power, even considering they'll have to pay for services they use, like reviews.
Review companies would need strict controls to be put in place against corruption.

It would probably also change a lot of nonsensical landscapes (ex: sports)

Advertising is evil.
There is a nice sshd option (-T) that tells you what it's really doing. Just run

But it’s kind of great for the upshot who can’t afford the spot of the billboard like the incumbent can.

And it’s kind of great for the (dozens, hundreds, thousand, millions) of people to pass by the location who don’t have some eye soar blocking their view.

Your argument is basically that there are some people who benefit from advertising—I promise you anyone antagonistic toward advertising has considered this fact.

> DXR allows each material to register a unique hit shader, so Modern GPUs need to dynamic dispatch based on the result of ray hits.

That's not how it works in practice. Even with hardware accelerated raytracers (like Intel Arc).

AMD systems push the hit/miss onto various buffers and pass them around.

Intel systems push the entire call-stack and shuffles them around.

Lets say your 256 thread-group chunk has 30% "metalic hits", 15% "diffuse hits", and the remaining 55% are misses. You cannot "build up" a new group with just one thread-group (!!!!).

To efficiently run things, you'll need ~4 thread groups (aka: 1024 rays) before you can run a full 256-thread group again for hits, and you'll need ~2 thread-groups (aka: 512 rays) before you get a full 256-thread group again for misses. And finally you'll need ~7 thread-groups (aka: 1792 rays to pass through) before you have the 256-diffuse hits needed to fill up a SIMD Unit.

In all cases, you need to dynamically grow a buffer and "build up" enough parallelism before running the recursive hits (or miss) handlers. The devil is in the details.

Intel has very dedicated and specialized accelerators that moves the stacks around (!!!!) so that all groups remain fully utilized. I believe AMD's implementation is "just" an append buffer followed by a consume buffer, simple enough really. Probably inside of shared memory but who knows what the full implementation details are. (The AMD systems have documented ISAs so we know what instructions are available. AMD's "raytracers" are BVH tree traversal accelerators but don't seem to have stack-manipulation or stack-movements like Intel's raytracing implementation)

I wonder a bit if this point of view is an 'age' thing, which is to say if you're under 40 it rings true, if you're over 40 it sounds silly kind of thing. I don't know that it is, it just feels that way a bit to me.

What if we outlawed surveillance capital instead? "Ad tech" is about exploiting information about individuals and their actions, what if that part of it was illegal because collecting or providing such information about individuals was illegal? (like go to jail illegal, not pay a fine illegal).

By making that illegal, collecting it would not be profitable (and it would put the entity collecting it at risk of legal repercussions). "Loyalty cards", "coupons", "special offers just for you", all gone in an instant. You could still advertise in places like on the subway, or on a billboard, but it would be illegal to collect any information about who saw your ad.

If you're over 50, you probably read a newspaper. And in reading the newspaper might have looked at the weekly ad for the various supermarkets in your neighborhood. That never bothered you because you weren't being "watched". The ad was made "just for you" and it didn't include specials on only the things you like to eat. When read a magazine you saw ads in it for people who like to read about the magazine's subject matter. Magazines would periodically do 'demographic' surveys but you could make that illegal too.

Generally if you're under 40 you've probably grown up with the Internet and have always had things tracking you. You learned early on to be anonymous and separate your persona in one group for the one in another. That people have relentlessly worked to make it impossible to be anonymous angers you to your core and their "reason" was to target you with ads. By maybe that it was "ads" was a side effect? That is probably the most effective way to extract value out of surveillance data but there are others (like extortion and blackmail).

I resonate strongly with the urge to slay the "Advertising Monster" but what I really want to slay is how easily and without consequence people can violate my privacy. I don't believe that if you made advertising illegal but left open the allowance to surveil folks, the surveillance dealers would find another way to extract value out of that data. No, I believe choking off the "data spigot" would not only take away the 'scourge' of targeted advertising, it would have other benefits as well.

> In fact, only arsenic is concerning, with roughly 10-60 times the allowed concentration for the drinking water.

Even this is unconcerning. The water standard for arsenic is unscientifically low for unrelated political reasons. There is no evidence that it is unsafe at much higher levels, as is common in many locales.

Arsenic is an essential micronutrient in animal biology, similar to selenium. We require some amount of arsenic in our diet and water is a common source. (More surprisingly, there is evidence that lead is an essential micronutrient in trace quantities but its biological function is not currently known.)

Two more of my favourites for Embedded Microcontroller based systems are;

Jumping spiders are really cute and really smart. Every one of my beehives has at least one jumping spider somewhere in or near it (typically between the lid and the inner cover, in the case of my Langstroth hives and my Langstroth to top-bar hive conversions, whereas in my from-scratch top-bar hives they typically hang out on top of the top bars). We stare at each other. Sometimes I'll flick one off its spot on an inner cover, possibly sending it very far, but no matter, they always find their way back.

In modern terms, it is nervous system co-regulation, and, yes, that’s a thing.

Many people with ADHD also suffer from complex PTSD (see comorbidity studies), and unless treated, this has effects like social anxiety and emotional dysregulation.

Emotional neglect in early childhood for example can be a ‘silent‘, non-obvious factor at play here (even caring parents can be emotionally unavailable for longer periods of time due to environmental or personal reasons!), which for the later adult means they have not (yet) learned the skill to regulate their nervous system on their own and can make use of a replacement ‘caretaker‘.

I fundamentally disagree. You are basing your tenets on two overly-broad ideas that don't make for a good basis for an actionable framework. You are kinda motte-and-baileying.

First of all, I dispute that "human autonomy" is the basis for the immorality of slavery. Rather, it is the preservation of human dignity. The subtle difference being, you can cede a certain amount of your autonomy without losing any dignity such as when taking on a specialized role to function in a society (in other words, a job). Actions that violate another's autonomy has some overlap with actions that violate another's dignity but "some overlap" is all that is really there to it.

"Human attention is sacred" therefore...what? Would, for example, schools count as a violation of human attention? A good book? A perfectly fine movie with a smattering of product placement? There's no telling what the blast radius of your principle here is.

Rather than thinking of human attention as a sacred inviolable thing, it is more akin to a currency each of us can spend. We just have to facilitate wiser spending.
> Now I find very large mostly black jumping spiders under my beehive top lid. No doubt they are well fed on some of the bees (I've seen one eating/drinking one).

Clicking the links and seeing some of those old sites really gives ahit of nostalgia.

Really good info in the article, enjoyed the read - but as others mentioned, some pictures would have been nice
This is IMHO the right angle.

Advertising is virtually impossible to stop, but more than that, is not inherently evil. Most countries include laws on how you can advertise. For example, you can't lie and make a claim that your product can't live up to, you can't use certain words or phrases, and you have to have disclaimers in some situations.

In the mid-90s when Yahoo was a young company, they had a simple advertising model. The ad would be placed next to the section of the site relevant to the category. If you were searching for watches, a watch ad would be next to it. The advertiser would know how many times the ad was served and how many times it was clicked on.

They didn't have deep demographic data like they do today.

The surveillance capitalism model is the predatory model. Advertisement is only one part of that industry.

Dumb question, but if register contention deadlock is possible, what would stop the shaders or hardware from, say, detecting the deadlock and spilling one or more threads to local memory?
My point is, that process of convincing is advertising.

So they'll only ban non-political advertising... until they decide your movement isn't political for the purposes of the laws. It's too obvious, and too tempting, a cudgel for any government to have.

Show HN: Built a tool to schedule stuff inside your app – what you guys think
I’ve been working on a tool called Schedify — it lets your app schedule stuff to happen later, like…
* send something in 5 minutes
* trigger a feature next week
* run logic in 2026 (seriously)

Why I built it:
Every time I needed to delay something in my own apps, it turned into a spaghetti mess of cron jobs, queues, and time-based hacks. So I made Schedify to do one thing: help you delay things cleanly — no boilerplate, no infra pain.

Right now it's in private beta — if you’re building something and think this might help, drop a comment. Happy to share access.
He is clearly on the opinion that specialization means the best entity (person, company, country, he talks about all three) capable of creating each product will tend to work on it, and then trade.

Yup but super impressive just how much faster Martin was than all the other competition by significant margins with Bbox (Rust) and Tegola (Go) trailing at ~2-4x slower. That indicates the author(s) of Martin really optimized the data structures & algorithms to achieve a new Pareto frontier. Neat - would be nice if there were an accessible summary of the tricks employed to make it so fast that were missing in competitors.
The last time I had a sort-of externally imposed schedule was at school. At university, attendance wasn’t required, nobody cared as long as I passed the tests.

> People expect you to promote your own products and take it with the grain of salt they should.

Similar thing happened with Amazon recently. They copied bestsellers and promoted their own products in their store leading to death of other companies. Now you are just making this loop in steroids. All the small companies would be forced to be sold to companies with eyeballs like Meta and Google.
The book Why Nations Fail makes a pretty strong argument for the core feature of successful societies to be strong institutions with low perceived corruption. Sensible laws that are upheld equally are a part of that.

The US in particular benefits from an absurd amount of resources (not least of which is land), a perfectly safe geographic position, the global language and an immigrant culture. Basically able to coattail the British after independence, the destruction of much of Eurasia during WWII cemented its position as first. And great diplomacy, including the Marshal Plan, enabled the US to create an international system with many benefits and natural synergies with its inherent strengths.
Not all countries have the same free speech protections as America. I can easily imagine a country that simply has a bureaucracy whose approval is required to publish TV programming, or one that bans banner ads in social media, billboards, restricts shop signs in various ways, requires all packaging in the store to be black and white, etc. Advertising doesn’t have to ve banned outright. It could be killed by a thousand specific rules targeting the most obnoxious forms, provided there wasn’t a constitutional issue in the country implementing these measures.
