41,799,102 | comment | zoezoezoezoe | 2024-10-10T14:19:09 | null | I think I actually like what they are doing. They're using a combination of Stimulus and HTMX, which I think is a more valid approach than the approach that Hey (the email and calendars site) and many others take, where practically every interaction streams HTML over the wire as opposed to what David and his team are doing where it gets the information on page load so that you arent waiting around for content to come over the wire. I think this approach is how HTMX should be used, but it often is used in a similar fashion to how Hey works, and I think that's the major flaw, take what I say with a grain of salt, but I dont think HTMX pushes the idea that you should preload stuff very well. | null | null | 41,793,050 | 41,766,882 | null | null | null | null |

41,799,108 | comment | myrmidon | 2024-10-10T14:19:48 | null | Caveat: This is in my view not <i>just</i> a technical achievement, it also works because some library authors play nice. And because things where standardized from the get-go, instead of evolving organically/provided much later by users.<p>I think the main thing that Julia gets right is that there are de-facto standardized interfaces for a lot of things that are actually followed/used.<p>E.g. in C++ on the other hand, you have a bunch of libraries that bring their own primitives, like all the Matrix classes-- their is no interface for those, and even if their was, it would be a pita to write C++ code that was able to work with a bunch of difference primitives here. So the problem is not only that it would be a lot of work to write C++ code to be "primitive-agnostic" (=> you would basically have to soak your codebase in templates), there are not even common expectations for you to build upon (like: does a matrix class provide rowncnt()? or rowCount()? or size(1)?, or nrow()? => if there is no common ground not even extensive template magic is gonna save your day).<p>Julia also makes it super easy to write type-agnostic code in general ("dynamically typed"), which is simply not the default and/or extra effort in many other languages. | null | null | 41,798,531 | 41,780,848 | null | null | null | null |

41,799,112 | comment | lhh | 2024-10-10T14:19:58 | null | Three friends and I summited Vulcan Misti in Peru (~19k ft) over 2 days with no altitude training. All of us came from sea level, had 2 days to acclimate staying in the town nearby (~7k ft). This was a year out of college, all of us were D3 athletes so reasonably fit but probably not considered elite level fitness.<p>The altitude impact was no joke, but for whatever reason it affected all of us to different degrees. I just felt a little more winded than usual, had to take my time a bit but was overall fine, whereas one of the group had a rough go of it, needed frequent breaks and vomited a couple times. The other two were somewhere in between.<p>So I'm sure being fit helps, but it seems there's more to it than that. | null | null | 41,797,707 | 41,787,798 | null | null | null | null |

41,799,115 | comment | ImPostingOnHN | 2024-10-10T14:20:29 | null | "I am not affiliated in any way, financially or otherwise" expands to "I am not affiliated in any way financially or affiliated in any way otherwise [than financially].<p>Such an general affiliation could include having a friend who works at WPEngine, being a customer of WPEngine, and many other possibilities.<p>Several wordpress community members have asked for clarity here, and been banned for asking. Matt refuses to provide clarity, apparently because he prefers people to be afraid of having any connection at all to WPEngine.<p>That is why the article mentions a lawyer: Matt's response to questions is that the questioners should hire a lawyer to figure out what <i>Matt's own wording</i> means. That sounds like a bad faith response to me.<p><i>> you don't say you're "affiliated" with someone just because you're a user/customer</i><p>A customer affiliation is included in "affiliated in any way", and constitutes a financial affiliation, too. If Matt didn't want people to interpret the checkbox in this way, he should have picked more specific wording and/or answered questions with something better than 'hire a lawyer'. | null | null | 41,797,834 | 41,796,748 | null | [

41,799,134 | comment | kiba | 2024-10-10T14:22:19 | null | Pollution has more to do with high intensity resource usage and unpriced negative externality than the # of people who are alive. For example, meat is much more energy intense because you require farmland to not only feed people, but also the cows. It also pollutes more, in addition to being more expensive to buy, but not expensive enough to cover all the damage being done to the environment.<p>Also, increased efficiency is a form of economic growth. We are after all doing more with less.<p>Another important thing to consider is that population size allows and enable certain economic activities to exist. For example, I go to theater and do theater activities, but theater can only exist if enough people go to theater. That threshold can be more easily reached if your theater is in a city.<p>If you want computer to exists, you need a certain amount of specialists dedicated to that. You need a large population because not everyone cares about computing and there are essential tasks that first need to be taken of such as agriculture and grocery stores and trains.<p>Finally, economic growth is desirable the same reason improving technology is desirable. It enables more capabilities. The bad side is when we abuse these capabilities, not that these capabilities are bad in itself. | null | null | 41,799,042 | 41,798,726 | null | null | null | null |

It's not that anyone wants a <i>higher</i> population, it's that the spectrum is a little screwed up. There's this line in the middle (fertility rate 2.1), and anything to the right of that is "population spirals out of control". Then everything to the left of it is "human extinction in just a few centuries".<p>We're currently on the "human extinction in a few centuries". And all the arguments that we're not are positively stupid. People seem to think that we're like moose on some island, that "population bounces back" (it does for animals, because their fertility rate never goes below replacement, so when population pressures subside, their populations recover). Every time you ask "what's the case for higher population", you're actually helping to murder our entire species.<p>If you were rational, you'd be pushing the idea that we need that 2.1 fertility rate, the one that doesn't result in higher population, and doesn't result in human extinction. | null | null | 41,799,042 | 41,798,726 | null | [

You're probably conflating the second law of thermodynamics with the whole thing. Obviously, thermodynamics applies to Earth, it was invented here.<p>> Entropy isn't everyday disorder, it's a specific relationship of microstates and macrostates, and you can't usefully infer things when you switch uses.<p>No, this is Bolzmann entropy. Entropy is absolutely a measure of disorder, and the fact that you cannot measure a specific value for large complex systems because the calculating framework is too simplistic and only applies to very well defined and artificial assemblies of quantities it does not mean that the concept and intuition do not apply.<p>Entropy is a measure of disorder or uncertainty.

In fact, it is quite simpler as an architecture than WASM.<p>Applets were just too early (you have to remember what the state of tech looked like back then), and the implementation was of poor quality to boot (owing in part to some technical limitations — but not only).<p>But worst of all, it just felt jank. It wasn't really part of the page, just a little box in it, that had no connection to HTML, the address bar & page history, or really anything else.<p>The Javascript model rightfully proved superior, but there was no way Sun could have achieved it short of building their own browser with native JVM integration.<p>Today that looks easy, just fork Chromium. But back then the landscape was Internet Explorer 6 vs the very marginal Mozilla (and later Mozilla Firefox) and proprietary Opera that occasionally proved incompatible with major websites. | null | null | 41,796,175 | 41,795,561 | null | [

You plop the files into htdocs, make sure PHP is set up, set up vanity URLs <i>if you want to</i>, and then… well, that's it. The final step is to go to the site, fill in the setup form, download the settings file it gives you and upload it. It doesn't even need an external database, it can use SQLite; if email setup is annoying, it doesn't even need that. And it's the most powerful and flexible wiki software out there: if there's something you want a wiki to do, MediaWiki can do it, but it also isn't too bloated out of the box, so you can just install plugins as and when you need them.

For practical concerns ("could code optimization change these semantics?", "is this guaranteed to work the same on future compiler versions?") it seems reasonable to me to call that undefined behavior, and to say that Rust doesn't have much of it.<p>> I see the parent commenter doing this frequently and sometimes[1] even in the C++ subreddit (of all the places!). How is this not obnoxious?<p>Both their comment here and their reddit comment look fine to me. Something like "C++ sucks, switch to Rust!" would be annoying, but specific relevant technical comparisons ("In Rust for comparison the static growable array V isn't dropped when the main thread exits [...]") seem constructive.<p>> Rust requires unsafe to do a lot of things which can be done in safe code in a GC'd language. Thus, unsafe is pretty common in Rust than most GC'd languages. If a segfault can literally kill a person, it is absolutely immoral to choose Rust over Java (it does not matter that Rust "feels" safer than Java).<p>Java does technically have the Unsafe class for low-level unsafe operation and JNI to interoperate with C/C++/assembly.<p>I'd expect that the average Rust program makes more use of unsafe, but largely just because the average Rust program is lower-level (including, increasingly, parts of the Linux and Windows kernels). It's unclear to me whether the same program written in Java or Rust would ultimately prevent more bugs. | null | null | 41,798,049 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

The same goes for Java and C#.<p>At low memory utilization, the GC can just put off collection, which saves execution time, so the runtime appears fast. But if you're close to the limit, then the GC has no choice but to pause often before continuing. Not very many algorithms will encounter this, but applications might, depending on what they do. | null | null | 41,796,077 | 41,795,561 | null | null | null | null |
