In my opinion this is a very outdated opinion.

What was his point?

At least in terms of open-source, I often say that the Aeron code base is one of the best projects to study in terms of software quality (especially Java). The real-logic (now Adaptive) guys are a skilled and knowledgeable bunch.

I find myself often wishing that I could create multiple labeled branches of conversation flow for things like this - perhaps it's some constraint of LLM's but I'm actually quite surprised how linearly-limited the flow is on ChatGPT.

I've often seen the space shuttle get tossed in when discussing complex achievements.

See https://github.com/real-logic/aeron (also from the creator of the disruptor)

I'm tired of the comparisons of "the industrial revolution" and the "printing press", I don't see those as comparable to what's happening here. Although Devin isn't this, there's a reason people refer to AGI as our last invention.

No comparisons to SBE in the benchmarks?

I wonder how this compares to something like Aeron performance-wise - though Aeron is strictly messaging (not queueing).

This is the perfect response to OPs question.

I think it's safe to assume that as a general rule on /r/<X>, <X> is god.

Big Peter Lawry fan - I use Chronicle Wire (the library mentioned in the article) often, it's a really nice serialization/deserialization library when performance/allocation is a focus. Combining Chronicle tools + Real Logic tools you can build some extremely performant Java applications.

I've actually really enjoyed some of the recommendations I get - my homepage is usually videos on Java, networking, DCS related content and for some reason last week I got a recommendation for a video by this channel that recreates historic life and the video was how to make a typical dinner as if it were 1820 - it was so random but awesome.

Thinking Fast and Slow

Big fan of it - very straightforward to use (like a local mirco-orchestration template)

I know HN's sentiment around cryptocurrency, regardless, how is this the top comment in this thread?

I think that's a really valuable approach - either dedicate the time and effort now to focus on it or just forget about it. This helps relieve the cognitive burden of your attention minimally scattered amongst N number of different things.

This is the quintessential example of a pedantic Hacker News comment.

Just from my own experience, I've had tons of floaters my entire life (since I was around 9 years old) and I used to be entirely fixated on them. I would constantly squint and look at the sky inspecting them - are there more, have they changed? Like all things in life you get used to things and while I couldn't really say when, at some point I stopped noticing them entirely (as others have mentioned). I still have A LOT of them and they are clearly visible (as I type this I can see them) but I just don't notice them anymore unless I conscientiously focus on them.

Did not expect to see this on the front page of HN - I'm nearly finished my MS at Stevens and have this class planned for next fall - really looking forward to it.

Agreed, not to mention the beating your body and (depending on the sport) brain take.

Wow, 35 is apparently where the ageism begins - that's scary. It's almost like we're all professional athletes where the lifespan of ones playing career typically ends in your 30's - then maybe you go into broadcasting (or analogously management).

I just listed to the Stephen Wolfram episode - gotta say, I had some preconceptions about Stephen but I loved their discussion.

Remarkable stuff Greg - no surprise to see your work on the front page of HN - always inspiring.

Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Yes - currently using it right now (sixth edition, where it switched to using RISC-V) for for my MS.

Look into beta-blockers - they are safe and not addictive, I take them every time I fly. They will keep you cool and collected without the negatives the come with benzo's.
