It is pointless to say "3rd largest" without mentioning the per capita data.

I think we all know how poor China was in the naughties. They needed foreign investments to enter their country. So now let's think about it: with strict regulations, would have those investors chosen China? Or do you believe that the

Your partial quote is quite misleading. The article obviously talks about "efficient frontier", not "intelligent frontier". >In the AI industry, we borrowed the term “efficient frontier” from economists. We use it to

The same problem exists for x86. Is $program built for x86-64 with SSE2? AVX2? AVX512? (I chose those three because they are programmer-visible. Programmers have to use intrinsics to exploit those ISA extensions effectively.) For RISC-V the

It sounds ridiculous to me that a hospital could be "for profit". It is supposed to be a public infrastructure, folks!

I don't know if we should jump immediately to that conclusion. The article has plenty of tiny typographical/grammatical errors suggesting it was human written, or at the very least a human was significantly involved in the loop.

I think interpreting the word too literally may not result in a productive discussion here. Especially taking into account that the original comment is translated from another language. All things considered, it seems plenty obvious to me t

It's gotten to the point that the moment I see "Rust" and "TUI" together, I immediately assume it's vibe coded. The combination just seems to be vibe coders' favorite, for some reason.

Obviously, XZ happened on Debian. But $malware can occur on any Linux distribution at any time. For a recent example just look at Arch Linux. Also, are we still assuming that we would still get only one attack over 20 years, instead of the

It is disturbing, and it is hard to blame them. Given the political climate nowadays, I guess it's really hard to tell what is satire and what is real anymore. Sometimes I see batshit insane takes on places like X, thought they were ju

Communist governments often prefer to use expressions that are more down-to-earth and colloquial, due to their populist root. It could be related to that, or just a matter of North-South dialectal differences I guess.

Don't let the year deceive you; IPv6, while designed in the 90s, was considered launched since only 2012.

Did you just miss the headline a few days ago, that IPv6 adoption has reached 50%? You might be right if IPv6 adoption stayed at 10% or so. But the current trend suggests that sooner or later someone is going to demand IPv6 support on your

I doubt it honestly. Most people are connecting to sites like Youtube, Instagram etc., which do actually support IPv6. It's how I get 60~80% IPv6 traffic on my home network. A great portion of it was because of my mom watching Youtube.

In some cases the built-in firmware is very barebones, just enough to get U-boot to load up and do the rest of the job.

It's scary that your 1-minute old comment got insta-downvoted.

Unfortunately it's you who feels that way. Because you never realized that third world countries are being hurt by IPv4 address space depletion. The lack of self awareness is appalling.

The fact that we are giving IP addresses an hierarchy is stupid. If you don't want outsiders to connect to your device use a firewall.

Come on... that's the top comment on the thread you shared. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47355046 This article that "begs to differ" is inventing IPv6 all over again. It just refuses to call itself so
