41,794,002 | comment | kylehotchkiss | 2024-10-09T23:41:01 | null | I was expecting something much more damning from the title, but the article goes on about how Apple is helping police use their own iPhones/CarPlay as platforms for their work... which just seems like good business sense? This seems more parallel to their marketing campaigns for healthcare industry than anything along the lines of sharing data with law enforcement, which this article does not insinuate even once. Is it controversial if police use iPhones/iPads instead of the in-car touchpads? If anything it makes me feel just a little bit better about security. Do we really want Accenture or whatever building these solutions instead? | null | null | 41,793,371 | 41,793,371 | null | null | null | null |

41,794,010 | comment | neilperetz | 2024-10-09T23:41:56 | null | I appreciate the question and it deserves a lengthier blog post reply that I will work on and share. In the interim, some brief thoughts on the topic that may be relevant.<p>The WordPress community operates on an open source, non-commercial basis. The community decides what is included in each release of WordPress, how it's tested, what documentation accompanies it, etc.<p>Because the WordPress Foundation, not Automattic, owns the WordPress trademarks for non-commercial use, Automattic has no control or veto of what code is stamped with the WordPress label.<p>By contrast, if Automattic retained non-commercial control over the WordPress trademarks it could refuse to affix the WordPress label to work done by and released by core contributor groups.<p>In case you are not familiar with how WordPress decisionmaking works: Volunteer contributors self-organize into groups that set their own goals, interface with other groups, allocate resources, plan a schedule, and resolve issues according to a Community Code of Conduct (see <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/handbook/community-code-of-conduct/" rel="nofollow">https://make.wordpress.org/handbook/community-code-of-conduc...</a>). You can learn about how decisions are made in the WordPress project at <a href="https://learn.wordpress.org/course/how-decisions-are-made-in-the-wordpress-project/" rel="nofollow">https://learn.wordpress.org/course/how-decisions-are-made-in...</a>.<p>I am going to operate under the assumption that others may have similar questions, which is why I think this is a good topic for a blog post. | null | null | 41,792,662 | 41,781,008 | null | [

41,794,012 | comment | jltsiren | 2024-10-09T23:42:09 | null | I used to think like that. Then C++11 arrived, and I realized I could get effectively the same performance with containers and move semantics, while spending less effort on writing and debugging the code.<p>If you need an array for your custom data structure, a standard library vector is almost always good enough. Associative arrays are a bit more tricky, but you should be able to find a handful of map implementations that cover most of your needs. And when you need a custom one, you can often implement it on top of the standard library vector. | null | null | 41,793,779 | 41,791,773 | null | [

41,794,017 | comment | yieldcrv | 2024-10-09T23:43:04 | null | It's not automatic, they'll donate something of value to it.<p>Here is the default reality:<p>A) they can do this to any "60%" non-profit. 60% refers to the category of maximum tax deduction<p>B) they won't be in control of the assets after they donate<p>C) but they'll be loosing money they otherwise would have that exceeds the tax burden<p>But all of these are surmountable by already having your own non-profit with the same board members, or aligned board members:<p>A) OpenAI is a 60% non-profit that they control and so<p>B) they'll still be in control of the assets they donate as if they never moved it<p>C) you can donate illiquid things that would have never been able to be converted to dollars. for example, those PPUs? or perhaps just some cloud compute credits? shares, or membership interests, of an organization as long as a market value can be pointed to. A bunch of GPUs?<p>An illustrative example would be how the new for-profit OpenAI entity sold some shares for $6bn to represent a 157bn valuation, this means that 3% of the shares were exchanged for dollars. And all 97% of the shares are said to be worth the exact same instantly, and indefinitely into the future. You could donate 1% of the shares to the <i>non-profit</i> OpenAI and that's a $1.57bn tax deduction against whatever income you currently have that year. and if you don't have enough income to offset then it keeps rolling forward.<p>in a 60% non-profit, assets can only offset up to 30% of your tax bill, and cash donations can be used to offset an additional 30%. Alternatively, cash alone can offset up to 60%. Since donating cash is suboptimal, do 30% <i>illiquid, appreciated, assets</i>, and 30% cash. The cash can also be found by borrowed funds but this is not seen as optimal, it can be seen as strategic though.<p>Once again, all the donated assets are in a non-profit you still control, while obtaining the tax benefits.<p>How is this useful? many ways. Non profit has financial ammunition and firepower. It can pump investments you also own by purchasing, or getting involved with. The regulations curbing this are quite flexible. Its a pretty high percentage ownership threshold between you and the nonprofit for it to violate self-dealing regulations, and even when violated you have like 1 - 3 years to get under those thresholds. But even that's just for shareholdings. It can print revenue for things you like, buy more GPUs, burn more energy in compute from your organization, make external investors enamored.<p>It will also be doing its stated mission, research. Honestly, the stated mission is exactly what I would do if I was also interested in doing all of the above.<p>The longest preparation is creating the non-profit and getting that approved. They already have that. so the rest is just pressing play. | null | null | 41,792,047 | 41,790,026 | null | null | null | null |

The detail is it is distributed-ish IoT. I didn't write it, the person(s) who did write it are gone, and no one else writes Elixir. I've gotten some good gains already but I'd like to squeeze the 80 - 90% of juice I think I can get before resorting to beefier hardware.<p>I've gotten into instrumenting and measuring it and I have some ideas but I'd love to hear others point me to other ideas. The real problem is that the hardware is miserably underpowered and it is real-time, by that I mean I can't defer, schedule for later, or de-prioritize anything.<p>---<p>To actually contribute, I really like Elixir. I am not yet sure why I would advocate for it over something more 'simple' like nodejs (My background is, accidentally, Javascript World) but it's certainly a very nice language to write in. It feels magical but not too magical where you get scared it's trapping you into its web.<p>Before anyone jumps too much on me for it, I gauge "simplicity" by how many people can I hire to write it. You can barely swing a cat without hitting 3 competent Javascript developers. I tried for many years to hire another golang dev so I could write it professionally, I only encountered a few despite having been in most interviews my employers would do. With that said, it may just be that the Venn diagram between "writes Javascript" and "writes golang" is small. | null | null | 41,792,304 | 41,792,304 | null | [

For loops and loops in general are procedural actions. You are jumping from directive to directive, command to command. Loops are NOT functional at all. loops are an artifact of the computational machine, jumping to different instructions.<p>Functional programs like functions in mathematics DO not contain for loops.<p>> which in practice means the likes of map/filter/reduce (ideally promoted to a first class language feature like sequence comprehensions).
>You could argue that those are still desugared to recursion, but I think at that point it's kinda moot - the construct is still readily recognizable as a loop,<p>All programs are desugared into assembly instructions. Assembly instructions are procedural by nature... they are not functional so your point is moot as everything is desugared into loop based jumps.<p>map/filter/reduce Are not loops. They are fundamentally different. It doesn't matter if it's "recognizeable" as a loop, it is NOT a loop. There is an isomorphism between imperative and functional programming, So the definition of Loop vs. no loops refers to the superficial differences between the two EVEN when the underlying things are the same.<p>>In general, so long as mutation can be encapsulated in modules that only expose pure functional interfaces, I think it should still count as FP for practical purposes.<p>It actually can't... for loops rely on mutation to work.<p>a for loop looks like this:<p><pre><code> <OUTER SCOPE>
for i in range(10):
<INNER SCOPE>
</code></pre>
By nature the for loop needs to influence outer scope otherwise your for loop is utterly useless. So how would you influence outer scope from inner scope?<p><pre><code> <VARIABLE FROM OUTER SCOPE>
for i in range(10):
<MUTATE VARIABLE FROM OUTER SCOPE WITHIN INNER SCOPE>
</code></pre>
That's the only way man.<p>This is the fundamental nature of for loops. They are imperative constructs. Sure it can look very similar to map or reduce or even filter, but THEY are not the same. | null | null | 41,793,773 | 41,758,371 | null | [

But it only replaces one small step in solving any real-world problem involving proteins such as designing a safe, therapeutic protein binder to interrupt cancer-associated protein-protein interactions or designing an enzyme to degrade PFAS.<p>I think the primary achievement is that it gets protein structures in front of a lot more smart eyes, and for a lot more proteins. For “everyone else” who never needed to master computational protein structure prediction workflows before, they now have easy access to the rich, function-determinative structural information they need to understand and solve their problem.<p>The real tough problem in protein design is how to use these structure predictions to understand and ultimately create proteins we care about.<p>1. <a href="https://alexcarlin.bearblog.dev/multistate-protein-design-with-alphafold-and-proteinmpnn/" rel="nofollow">https://alexcarlin.bearblog.dev/multistate-protein-design-wi...</a> | null | null | 41,786,101 | 41,786,101 | null | [

Bankman-Fried made it, and it's increasingly looking like Bytedance did too. But D.C. is a town obsessed with power over money. People regularly toss aside lobbyists and their clients if it's politically expedient. In part because it's not like the lobbyists (or their clients) ditch them after being spurned. | null | null | 41,794,071 | 41,784,287 | null | [

The temperance movement didn’t come out of nowhere. I think it’s an interesting parallel between fermented beverages and coca tea on the one hand, and cocaine and hard liquor on the other. | null | null | 41,787,798 | 41,787,798 | null | [

41,794,099 | comment | XorNot | 2024-10-09T23:55:49 | null | Having just delved into Rust a little (and then given up and decided to learn Dart/Flutter for more practical applications development - I don't need another language to make command line tools in), this one I did feel while I was going through documentation.<p>The problem is most of the important problems you deal with while programming require heap allocations: i.e. a lot of Rust advice is liable to lead you astray trying to find over-complicated solutions to optimizations you probably don't need up front.<p>So in terms of systems programming, Rust is technically good here - these are all things you'd like to do on low level code. On the other hand if you're making a bunch of web requests and manipulating some big infrequently used data in memory...Box'ing everything with Arc is probably exactly what you should do, but everyone will tell you to try not to do it (and the issue is, if you're like me, you're coding in the "figure out what and how to do it" phase not the "I have a design I will implement optimally" phase). | null | null | 41,792,677 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |
