Many do in fact are interested in these sort of experiments and methodologies and do them outside of their profession. All of this is different from the practice of religion. I have no idea how you compare a methodology to a ritual. The methodology comes from easily provable axiomatic facts about statistics and logic.

If you move the goalposts such that the word "meat" is specifically defined as only lean skeletal muscle tissue with the fat trimmed away with surgical precision, you can win the argument.<p>Sure, if you speak to actual carnivores, they will make it clear that fat, offal, sinews, marrow, etc are all critical parts of their diet, but if you just employ selective redefinition that has no bearing on actual reality, the argument stands strong in your own mental vacuum.<p>I remember doing the same thing as a thirteen year old at local Lincoln-Douglas debate tournaments. Winning debates by stretching dictionaries is a solid move, even if it doesn't get you very far at the nonlocal level.<p>It's always critically important that our Straw Men are constructed perfectly, to avoid pesky and annoying limitations of the real world. | null | null | 41,801,171 | 41,796,914 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,615 | comment | phaedrus | 2024-10-11T15:55:14 | null | (With the caveat I haven't read OP article yet) I was enamored of using relational programming for a games engine for many years. Ultimately I concluded it would be better to code such an engine in C++ and write custom solvers for just the aspects you want to be relational, rather than do the whole game in a general purpose relational language.<p>The resolution algorithm(s) implemented by a general purpose logic programming or relational language are not the only ones possible, and being more general may not be efficient for the type of problem you want the game engine to solve efficiently. Conversely extending a logic programming language to natively include these features may invalidate simplifying assumptions or require a change in evaluation order that makes the language impossible to implement as simply or efficiently.<p>A concrete example (of extending logic programming with game specific features):<p>I wanted to both use logic programming relations and also linear constraints, so that you could say something like "A <= (B-10.0) .OR. B <= (A-10.0)" which you could picture as constraining the position of the centers of two width=10.0 game objects so that their boundaries do not overlap, but you don't care which is in front of the other. (Statements like this would be used to build up a scene or more complex game object qualitatively, without pinning down exact coordinates rather letting the linear constraint solver pick them.)<p>Since running the linear constraint solver to resolve something like "f(A) <= g(B)" actually (potentially) updates all of the interrelated variables (A or B might also have constraints against C,D,E,F), running it as soon as you pick the LHS or RHS of the logic expression "prop(X) .OR. prop(Y)" could potentially invalidate propositions elsewhere previously committed to. So what you probably want to do is, rather than interpreting the "<=" on linear variables as a test with a boolean result, interpret it as a command to add "f(A) <= g(B)" to the global store of linear constraints, and then at some later time run the solver on the complete matrix of linear variables.<p>That leads to design questions like how does the language know when it's done adding constraints and time to solve, what if we really do need a logic clause to depend on testing a value not constraining it, etc. But all of that's just a distraction from the real issue, which is that for the case of BOTH the linear constraint solving and the logic programming, in the context of a game engine we really need to have more control over both when lengthy computation is run and how long it runs.<p>That is, even if we design a good way for the extension features to run from the POV of the logic language, from the POV of the outer system we still have the problem of sometimes the search time to resolve part of a logic program blows up and it's difficult for the programmer to always predict when/where that will happen. In this sense it's not even required that hand-rolled imperative code be faster, it can be slower - as long as it's predictable.<p>And in reality you wouldn't even necessarily be hand-rolling it; what I'm talking about is whether the rules engine is a solver that is externally driven (and pre-emptible) by imperative game code, or the whole game runs within the "solver" (i.e. relational language). As tempting as it is to imagine what could be done if literally "the whole" game were relational, the fact is using that technology for a whole game implies a magic relation solver that doesn't actually exist. | null | null | 41,809,197 | 41,800,764 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,625 | comment | dragontamer | 2024-10-11T15:55:41 | null | Concurrent data structures IMO are those that take advantage of their concurrency and (subtly) alter their behavior for +performance above and beyond what is possible with simple locks.<p>For example: Count / size() can be imprecise in the realm of concurrency. No need to exactly count the HashTable.<p>It's impossible to get the size of this table exactly, because the shards are each at best one atomic and no shared lock exists between them. Adding up their individual counts (even if implemented as seq-cst atomics) is incorrect as an atomic is only globally correct within its own atomic operation. And there's no way to atomically gather all the shards sizes without a global lock.<p>Feature complete would similarly be: all the features you'd expect, except those annoying low performance ones. | null | null | 41,809,676 | 41,798,475 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,635 | comment | maxbond | 2024-10-11T15:56:50 | null | I think what you perceive as "friction" I perceive as "feedback," and it helps me work faster while writing code that's as good or better. When I interact with unfamiliar untyped code, it takes me longer to find my footing. So I don't find that there's overhead.<p>I'm not dogmatic, type systems aren't the end all. But I think a lot of the trouble people have with them comes from using the approaches they've developed in untyped systems and saying, "this is the same, I just get more warnings and errors." But the opportunity is in developing new approaches and habits that leverage the type system.<p>For me the "aha" moment was watching Jon Gjenset's YouTube videos, and seeing him intentionally write code with type errors in order to figure out what the type of something was. This helped me make the switch from thinking of errors as drudgery to be avoided to errors as feedback I may want to elicit.<p>Now I'm able to answer lots of questions within my editor that I'd previously need to use a REPL or consult the docs to answer. It's like I'm able to query my codebase, but the query language is just the language I'm already working in. The magic of strong typing is good tooling. | null | null | 41,809,829 | 41,801,415 | null | null | null | null |

Funny thing is everyone already has credit monitoring but it's now the financial squeeze shutting down these harmful businesses.<p>How about we take a few folks from the USDS put them on a project to audit any business selling personal data without opt in from individuals, and proactively require them to prove funds to cover monitoring for everyone in their databases in case of breach? If they can't cover, they can't operate. Or at the very least the government could put them on a watch list to warn other businesses not to purchase data from them because risk is high / quality is poor.<p>At the very least, this would shut down the long tail of small data grifters, maybe even force the bigger brokers to re-evaluate their business model. | null | null | 41,805,089 | 41,805,089 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,644 | comment | LegionMammal978 | 2024-10-11T15:57:30 | null | Thanks for the history! Reading through the issues, I agree with you that some of the motivations against objects in records seem pretty strange. Mostly they seem to be around existing JS-written 'membranes' (related to the SES stuff mentioned above?) getting confused by primitives-containing-objects, depending on which permutation of typeof checks they use. Out of curiosity, do you think that the Shadow Realms proposal they refer to will ever go anywhere?<p>Otherwise, there's the argument that "x.y" syntax shan't be used to access a mutable object from an immutable record, but that just feels like the all-too-common motive of "we must ensure that users write morally-correct code (given our weird idiosyncratic idea of moral correctness), or otherwise make them pay the price for their sins". I've witnessed this tendency a few times in discussions about the Rust language and standard library: the usual framing is that such-and-such must be banned since it would allow for 'unclear' or 'confusing' code, but then it turns out to be a really particular hang-up when you look closer at it. | null | null | 41,808,811 | 41,787,041 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,650 | comment | freedomben | 2024-10-11T15:57:49 | null | No disagreement here, although if past experience has proven anything I think it's that companies <i>will</i> abuse whatever "security features" they can to accomplish their objectives. It reminds me a lot of the old adage, "the same wall can keep people in just like it can keep people out."<p>When the OS is fundamentally in the user's control, they are limited in what they can do, but when the OS disregards it's owners preferences/desires and enforces it's creators desires.<p>Minor thing actually:<p>> <i>If APIs were exposed to allow you to bless your own applications with the right permissions, you would probably not care so much about root restrictions.</i><p>I absolutely agree with this in theory, but in practice I'm not sure it would ever work because they just aren't going to put in the work to build and maintain APIs for things they don't care about, and there would be a very long tail of things to do (and sometimes those things are legitimately a lot of work). Call recording being a classic example.<p>But all in all, I very much agree. I love those features when they are in my control on my devices. Biggest issue is, they virtually never are and the number of occurences is trending down.<p>Anyway, | null | null | 41,810,484 | 41,809,698 | null | null | null | null |

The judge also banned revenue sharing agreements with manufacturers and mobile carriers used to prevent companies from using different search engines or app stores.<p>Nobody, figuratively, will ever care about some custom ROMs. But the judge has broken all of the means Google was using to control device manufacturers. | null | null | 41,809,968 | 41,808,917 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,655 | story | baruchbski | 2024-10-11T15:59:00 | Show HN: FocusBrew A personal productivity Chrome extension | Hey<p>I want to share a Chrome extension I originally created for my own use,
but decided to launch publicly after friends showed interest.
It's called FocusBrew, and it combines three essential productivity tools:<p>1. Pomodoro timer: Stay focused with customizable work/break intervals
2. Task tracker: Keep your to-dos organized and visible
3. Site blocker: Eliminate distractions by blocking time-wasting websites<p>Why I made FocusBrew:
I couldn't find a single extension that combined these features effectively,
so I built one for myself.
When friends saw me using it and asked for a copy,
I realized it might be helpful for others too.<p>Key points about FocusBrew:
- It's completely free
- Doesn't save any personal data (privacy-focused)
- Seamlessly integrates Pomodoro, task tracking, and site blocking
- Clean, intuitive interface
- Customizable to fit your workflow<p>I'm looking for feedback from fellow productivity enthusiasts to help refine the extension and make it even more useful for the community. | https://www.focusbrew.dev | 1 | null | 41,810,655 | 0 | null | null | null |

Twitter is now another media platform. It baffles me why Democratic elites did not buy twitter. Not only would twitter have retained its value much better due to not losing users and advertisers, but also would not have fallen into musk's hands, creating effectively another Fox News. Because Musk did not want the site, the counteroffer would have been lower or the same, instead of a bidding war. | null | null | 41,810,614 | 41,810,614 | null | [

41,810,665 | comment | Ukv | 2024-10-11T16:00:15 | null | I'm interested in the concept of treating 3D worlds like the web treats documents. Make a world, host it on your server, and place portals (links) to other worlds hosted by other people. VRChat and similar have interconnected user worlds, but it's still all under one host, tied to one engine, behind a proprietary game - opposed to an open standard.<p>There's good progress like W3C/Mozilla/etc.'s work on WebGPU, allowing fast GPU access for untrusted content, which I'd consider a prerequisite. The fact that some non-technical brands sold some overpriced digital items on existing kids' games, then got bored and left, has little relevance to the actual idea to me. | null | null | 41,808,647 | 41,808,647 | null | null | null | null |

I probably didn't read enough details but it sounds like a library that abstracted over shared types arrays would already do all of this or at least solve the same problem.<p>I'd rather see binary struct views added to typed arrays. Ideally with a settable offset so you don't have to create a new view for every instance. That seems more useful than this middle ground that can already be poly-filled. I guess binary structs can also be poly-filled but it feels like a far more obvious speed win. Marshalling data in/out of WASM, in out of WebGPU/WebGL, parsing binary files, and sharing data across shared memory all get solved at once and with speed. | null | null | 41,808,937 | 41,787,041 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,677 | comment | starky | 2024-10-11T16:01:27 | null | I've tried to switch from Vivaldi to Floorp and there is some things that Firefox does that drive me absolutely nuts.<p>The main one is the behaviour of pinned tabs. Pinning in Firefox turns it into an icon that is harder to hit and doesn't even protect it from closing. This makes them essentially useless, they should be moved to the front of the tab bar and be protected from closing.<p>The second is that when you use vertical tabs the tab bar acts like a title bar instead of a separate entity. This means you can't double click to create a new tab, and trying to drag a tab often results in the entire window moving. I have to use Tree style tabs and disable the normal tab bar completely to prevent this.<p>There are also things that I don't like such as how downloads are handled and I've has issues with my session tabs being saved properly. | null | null | 41,809,875 | 41,809,698 | null | null | null | null |

41,810,681 | comment | kbolino | 2024-10-11T16:02:06 | null | I was mostly commenting on the "broader trend" aspects and the assignment of primary blame to implementing engineers.<p>There's another problem with Chrome, which is that nobody is actually paying for it. So the big corps move features along there only in the sense that they won't adopt it or will drop it otherwise. I don't think the big corps are pushing for Mv3 but they also probably don't care that it arrives either. Conversely, I wager Google estimates nearly nobody will revolt and leave Chrome over the loss of Mv2. It hurts ad-blocker developers and it hurts the most conscious users, but Chrome is a marketing product targeted at mass adoption first and foremost. I personally hope their estimation is wrong and the current browser monopoly breaks, but this may not yet be the breaking point.<p>Even if that happens, Chrome eagerly adopting enterprise policy support may keep it on life support in that environment, though. | null | null | 41,810,523 | 41,809,698 | null | null | null | null |

A few years ago there were many significant games coming out with native linux capacity (MineCraft, KSP, Factorio). Then proton dropped. Now, rather than support linux natively, even the most pro-linux developers are just expecting that their windows version will run under proton. And those who are running games under proton are essentially cut-off from customer support. I've had a few games where a patch suddenly stopped them working under proton. I have no recourse in such situations. That is not a good trend. | null | null | 41,810,128 | 41,799,068 | null | null | null | null |
