I like the responsiveness of the website.

But there's no way Vanity Fair by Thackeray so high on "top all-time" list. It turns out that a lot of comments are about Vanity Fair magazine.

On the other hand censorship is getting more strict everyday on AI chat. I asked gemini to translate a sentence from Herman Hesse's Der Steppenwolf and it refused.

Und Sie haben, wie ich sehe, da ein so hübsches, ein so entzückendes junges Mädchen zu nichts andrem zu brauchen gewußt, als daß Sie ihm ein Messer in den Leib gestochen und es kaputt gemacht haben! Halten Sie denn das für richtig?

You said "ranges and algorithms", but you didn't copy the third function which actually uses <range> library.

inline double ranges_pipeline(std::span<double const> xs) noexcept { auto costs = xs | std::views::transform(calibrated_mv) | std::views::transform(residual) | std::views::transform(weighted_square);

  return std::ranges::fold_left(costs, 0.0, std::plus<double>{});

}

It's still a bit verbose, because C++ doesn't allow universal function call syntax. It will be even more concise in other languages like D.

You have write access to this git repo as a first time contributor. You are likely the owner of this repo as well.

You made a pull request not from your own fork, but from a separate branch, https://github.com/Ataraxy-Labs/weave/pull/9

I delayed upgrade to IPadOS 26.3 til reddit users shared on /r/ipad that its performance was on par with older version now. However, once I upgrade, the performance issues and bugs are noticeable instantly. For example,

1. switching between different browser tabs has a sub-second delay(est 200ms) 2. a tab in system settings menu takes 200ms to load 3. maximizing a video doesn't always work(sometimes it leaves a big white space on top) 4. double tabbing a keyboard key often triggers zooming into the browser page

I couldn't believe these issues haven't been fixed after 3 subversions.

> Notably, the first scan of this URL on the VirusTotal platform occurred in late September, by a user from Taiwan.

Could this be the attacker? The scan happened before the hack was first exposed on the forum.

It even censors contents related to GDR. I asked a question about travel restriction mentioned in Jenny Erpenbeck's novel Kairos, it displayed a content security warning as well.

> Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not.

Though it's an interesting quote, I have to disagree. The reindeers on St. Matthew Island continued to multiply and depleted their food resources without any predators, until an extreme snow storms struck. They don't "instinctively" develops a natural equilibrium.

Another mistake is to place "The Road"(Cormac McCarthy) under "On the Road"(Jack Kerouac).

Hi, Alex. Is there anyway to browser the ebooks filtered by languages? I tried to find some texts in French, but it doesn't seem to have any.

Similar case with tp-link routers, https://websec.ca/publication/advisories/root-shell-tplink-w...

I am interested. I learned some basic 8086 assembly during university, read some books on reverse engineering, but never went anywhere further. BTW, are you working on a open source project?

@dang, could you use this link instead?

Demos still work with umatrix plugin on. It requires script from unpkg and msecnd(microsoft domain), but not baidu.

"upstreamed"? Is this feature developed by Microsoft?

I thought libreboot applied to rejoin GNU project long time ago. I remember reading it on /r/reddit. What happened afterwards?

Isn't it a misnomer to call it a "compiler"? Even it's github README says otherwise,

> distcc is not itself a compiler, but rather a front-end to the GNU C/C++ compiler (gcc), or another compiler of your choice. All the regular gcc options and features work as normal.

I could only find this. So it's definitely a different company.

> Paragon Solutions doesn’t have a website. There’s very little information at all about them online, even if the Tel Aviv-based smartphone surveillance startup’s employees are all over LinkedIn, more than 50 of them. That’s not a bad headcount for a company that’s still in stealth mode.

Is this a fork and continuation of coreos? Tracking down the git log, a lot of commits were made by coreos and redhat employees.

The videos are pre-recorded, but after the video there is a live Q&A section. Come and join the IRC channel. It's a lot of fun.

The power of HN! There were 9 sponsors on github for Daniel Mendler, when I finished filling my sponsorship info, the number increased to 12. This survey really helps.

I had to scroll my mouse many, many times to read all the specs. It's much easier to read them on gsmarena instead.

If expressed in OCaml, it's just

let compose f5 f4 f3 f2 f1 f0 x0 x1 x2 = f5 (f4 (f3 (f2 (f1 (f0 x0 x1 x2)))))

whose signature is,

val compose : ('a -> 'b) -> ('c -> 'a) -> ('d -> 'c) -> ('e -> 'd) -> ('f -> 'e) -> ('g -> 'h -> 'i -> 'f) -> 'g -> 'h -> 'i -> 'b = <fun>

Note this action was supported from a lot of established members in C++ community, including C++ standard library chair, who asked for "New C++ Leadership"[1] and many googlers.

It's best read with emacs info mode, given that RMS is an emacs lord.

The scale of the flood is crazy. Since the image data is sourced from UNOSAT, I found out more updated data from its website: https://unosat.org/products/

I think Rob Pike has changed his idea. I remember watching Youtube video featuring language designers(golang, d and rust), where Rob Pike, Andrei Alexandrescu and Steve Klabnik talked about the stories behind three languages. Rob Pike said something like, "Golang was mistakenly called system language, it should be called server programming language instead".

I tried to find the video on youtube, but to no avail.

I remembered I had a similar experience with IBM cloud last year. I created an account, created several VMs and deleted them. Then after half an hour, boom, my account was banned, telling me something like "violated our policy".

Interestingly, I just tried to log into my IBM cloud account and it was successful. I don't know how and when I was un-banned. I received the email about the ban but not the unban.

> like using `fn` for functions and `->` to annotate return types

`->` syntax is included in C++11 standard, named "trailing return type", but its adoption seems to be very slow.

`auto f() -> int { return 42; }`
