But it doesn't reflect the factual subtitle. The title here says 1918, but the true trend is 1915-1918, which had a bit of a war as well. > There is no requirement to post the article headline as-is on HN. There is. From the guideli

HN title is not good. Original title is "U.S. Life Expectancy Drops for Third Year in a Row, Reflecting Rising Drug Overdoses, Suicides." The comparison is between the last three years and 1915-1918, but the Spanish flu was just g

AMD switched to TAGE for Zen 2, so I don't know if neural networks are "the future of branch prediction" or just a neat diversion.

It produces the full domain name (up to .com) in ~ 1 minute. If there is more to the url (a path, ?= parameters, etc) after the domain name, then no.

Yeah, I put labels corresponding to the original IP throughout and used a jump table.

Huh, interesting. First time I read this comment, it said something like "why should I care what you think?" I guess the edit indicates that you do care?

Just because automatic differentiation is a different technique than numerical differentiation doesn't mean it isn't a numerical method. (I probably should not say this, but I will anyway: your comments regarding math and science

I don't think anyone at Intel has been patting themselves on the back for their 10nm failure. This wasn't their plan - cannon lake was supposed to be released in 2016, but now they'll maybe have volume production by the end

a lot of people are using JavaScript without understanding the method signatures of commonly using methods because JavaScript is such a weird and confusing language that has nonstandard method signatures for standard functions.

It is extremely awesome that JavaScript has conditioned a ton of the world's programmers to think that needing to compose your function with the identity function to achieve the desired result is not surprising or bad. I will not be co

What is the syntactic sugar here? I mostly see a map that doesn't behave how anyone would expect.

How would i.e. OpenGL IHV drivers work as static libraries? No driver updates without a recompile? No driver switches (between vendors) without a recompile?

by tntn 7y ago
1. The code you pull in will not get updated unless you do it explicitly. 2. The code you pull in will not get exploited when someone masquerades as the package owner. (How many widely publicized cases of this have there been by now, 5? 10

Why are you comparing the size of application dependencies to the size of an IDE that includes several compiler toolchains and tons of other build-only stuff?
