I was going to say I don't think you'll see CUDA any time soon on M1 machines but... apparently Nvidia does have a beta AArch64 driver these days. TIL.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that working well given that it's, well, the Nvidia blob... but it might (once we get Thunderbolt working, with an eGPU). I avoid Nvidia GPUs these days, so if an eGPU demo does happen, it'll more likely be an RX 5700XT running the open source amdgpu drivers, which I do happen to have lying around :-)
Or Daryl Morey in the NBA. As a fan I've noticed it's really quiet there about China across the league.
In Denmark you cannot just declare personal bankruptcy.

You can ask a court to declare you bankrupt, but there are many requirements and rules. And the court may reject your application.
Yes, but there's no reason we can't partially solve this by throwing more data at the models, since we have vast amounts of data we can use for that (ratings, reviews, comments, etc), and we can always generate more en masse whenever we need it.
Absolutely fair to ask. It would be shocking if they don't provide one, to the point that I wouldn't trust that company with anything in the future and would likely file a chargeback to get the refund.

The fact that there are now dozens of services that exist to provide you with a burner CC number in order to sign up for these trials indicate that almost nobody actually wants to provide a credit card number for a trial. It's also just ridiculously user-hostile with very little proof that it results in higher customer activation compared to a trial that doesn't require a credit card.

Good luck!
Heating water with electricity is the literally last thing we should do. That is, once clean electric energy is cheap, we can do it. But we are not there yet. Hence we should at least use heat pumps or similar technology.
Your comment would carry more weight if I were from silicon valley (sorry, UK here).

As for answers, post according to your target market. Surely if you post while fellow Indians are awake you'll get answers from them? How many users are on hackernews.in that aren't on news.ycombinator.com?
You'll forget lynx, elink or w3m the moment you start using NetSurf. It's much more sophisticated.
As to the former part of your comment, I should state that as far as I'm concerned there are only two NetSurf frontends for Unix-like systems (GTK and Framebuffer) and the article is just about Framebuffer version.
How are links to respected science journals "hysterical, scare mongering, idiocy"?
I asked about this a few days ago. This appearing now is just awesome. Would like to say a big thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.

I'm spewing anti-anti-radiation facts. Primarily to get attention back to the actual issue: the usefulness of these machines in the first place. As for [1]: yes, fine, the effective dosage may be larger than suggested. Even if it's a factor 20, it still doesn't matter. Secondly, the 'letter of concern' mainly asks questions about some possible risks. Thirdly, it does not support the claims in this thread in any way. The OP was worried about it 'spewing radiation all over the place'. The dosage of people working there is completely negligible compared to what people inside the machine receive.
I am thinking cheap arm processor+lcd screen+embedded linux+some keys = (cheap?) DIY tablet.

This could be a project which can make me learn embedded linux after all.
What you’re suggesting is moderation. Someone has to tell Facebook that heroin is bad.

From what I see Facebook already implements automated content detection but you know it’s not perfect, content slips through and it’s often in the gray area.

Would you like your account to be blocked because you joked about something? Bots don’t have sense of humor.

Do you want some ibuprofen? Sorry, that’s a drug. Request dropped.

I’m guessing your kid is quite young. Just to echo @ruffrey, hang in there, it gets better. They get easier and more independent, and you learn to adapt. Covid lockdown is a hell of a time to have a small child in the equation!

Totally feel you re side projects and learning new stuff though. There’s just no time and very little will. You need to find new ways to be effective with your time and energy, which can include making tough decisions about where you prioritise both.

Hang in there dude!
He’s not being detained. He was charged and released the same day.

I don't know. Were they? By "too" do you mean the unidentified people above?

How do they punish themselves for insinuations of possibly suppressing something?

Such as what?
> Apple's business model boils down to selling mediocre hardware at premium prices, and concealing that fact by a large amount of optimizations and polish.

So... doesn’t optimizing and polishing something make it a better product?
You could get something visually similar by animating sprites with blurry edges, and thresholding the composite image. I can’t imagine that would be too expensive to do at high resolution in JavaScript.
Carbon capture works at a point site. Put your machine there and you get a nice concentration of CO2. Once it's in the atmosphere you are basically just building a more efficient tree. Any machines you build will have to be as large as forests. Who is going to pay for that?

By definition this would be keynesian gold digging. Pay people to do something that has very little economic benefits for the individual doing it and it's not in competition with any other private industry. It's basically an extreme example of a luxury.
I didn't know. Interesting. The news coverage of Kazakhstan is bordering on nothing in my part of the world. Other than covering his resignation, I don't think I have read anything other than the renaming of Astana.
You're telling me the fine is something like 5% of the profit collected from making the 737MAX?
Be careful using OneDrive for important storage, I've been using OneDrive with my band to share musical projects for a while and we discovered there is a bug that is somehow moving random files to the windows recycle bin.

The files were not necessarily touched (they're often from archived projects), I haven't been able to spot a pattern yet. (it may have to do with fast-moving changes + a mix of OS's perhaps)

There are topics in their support forums about this but no serious responses, it's a vague problem but I was shocked that it wasn't a red alert moment for them.

We're switching as soon as possible, but yeah, keep an eye on your recycle bin...

(Edited for clarity.)
but the solution surely isn't “so make the manufacturer the real root”

I think it's pretty clear what features like this are designed for. The mobile ecosystem and their walled gardens, where the manufacturers --- and Google --- certainly do want complete control (and it's a little funny to see the power struggles between them), and treat the users as nothing more than consumption-slaves to be milked for profit.
I found Mr. Ross' funnelweb utility to have the best syntax. Unique and easy to read.

Unfortunately the only known implementation was last updated over two decades ago, and is written in pretty hard to understand C.

I asked for permission and started a repository here: https://github.com/loa-in-/fw-utf8

I currently have it unmodified there, except for disabled check for ASCII range. (this modification is included in initial commit, sorry, my bad). Otherwise code is the same.

P/E doesn't even tell you that. Companies with negative revenue growth rates often have low P/E ratios but these are often overvalued and poor investments even then. Sophisticated investors, and therefore market pricing, take all of this into account when valuing companies. All trivial nominal measures of stock value were completely arbitraged out of the market many years ago.

There are still measures that correlate well with low risk and strong returns for some subset of companies, but identifying a subset and building valuation models for them is non-trivial (e.g. I typically use risk models for revenue growth in comparative valuation which don't even apply to most of the market). If it was as simple as looking at a trivial ratio of public numbers, everyone would already be doing it.

I've been investing a long time and the markets have changed a lot over the decades. At this point, I think most of the investing advice from several decades ago is obsolete because it is based on assumptions that aren't actually true today. Investment advice and heuristics have a shelf-life. Most people aren't going to build a portfolio strategy from first principles, it is a lot of work, hence the popularity of index funds.

unsync your contacts from whatever service provider you're using, make sure they're gone, go ahead and share the contacts (which are now empty) with Clubhouse, get the invites, then revert everything back?
Thank you for your advice especially for the google terms --- that's going to lead me to discover a whole lot of information.

The pattern I am seeing in this thread is that I can't escape the basics and theory.

That's fine because at least now I know that putting time into learning the basics and theory is worth it.
I've updated the gist so it now can be used without my luash fork, and can be used with ((luash+curl) || luasec || lua-curl). Just for fun :-)
i prefer the Before one, it is clear what it does, it's branching, common, even in plain english or any latin language

I've had one of these for years with MERV10-12 (depending on availability) filters. This is in addition to the 20x25 filter in the central unit. Judging by how dirty the filter on the box fan gets, it is amazing how the central unit is just unable to do an adequate job.
There is no slider between state socialism and anarchocapitalism. Economically, there are quite a few more axes. It's possible to have full socialism without anymore state ownership than today, and it's possible to have capitalism with a lot of state ownership, and it's also possible to have cybernetics-market chimera to organize the economy.
[author] There were some contingency plans, but we had no time to get them ready in advance. If Google had actually pulled the plug, we wouldn't been down for everyone for many weeks, and given that the vast majority of our large customers are non-tech-savvy (low paid employees at ad agencies), a large percentage would have remained with a broken experience forever. They'd have just given up and moved their money to Google.
This proposition, discussed and shown by Piketty in his 2013 book, was not at all obvious before that and even today many people would argue (wrongly) that it isn't true. So if it's a natural law of wealth, it is a very recently proven one.

I feel bad for the guy, but I feel like if only he did not bring the attention to him self there would not be an issue.
I had a similar experience with the Dyson and then the battery died. After getting the battery replaced under warranty, the machine has worked great ever since.
Scala is AOT. The JIT part is just to speed up execution of the machine code its compiler targets, it not being the native ISA typically.
And there have been a lot of tax changes recently. Although my personal situation didn't change significantly, the filing experience changed more during the past administration than in the 10 years I'd been filing taxes before that, even though those previous 10 years included multiple moves and changes of jobs, and the purchase of a house.
I majored in math and physics. The same kind of intuition that you use for physics you also use for math. In physics you may call it choosing a reference frame, in math you call it choosing a coordinate system. At least for me it's exactly the same kind of thinking. You hit the nail on the head here though:

> Also, in physics you need to have a good grasp of what to ignore because they have only a small effect on the solution or because it operates on a different scale (fringing effects, transient solutions in ODEs), which often relies on a very hand-wavey type of reasoning.

Physics is often taught in an exceedingly vague and hand-wavey way. Physics students have to learn to ignore that nagging feeling that something is not quite right. This is impossible for a mathematician. A mathematician wants to cleanly separate the math from the problem that is being solved using math. The problem specification consists of a list of assumptions, and the solution of the problem consists of 100% rock solid math. Physicists weave the two together, so that in the end it's often not clear what is actually being assumed. Furthermore, it's usually not explained based on which experiments those assumptions are justified. A counterexample is special relativity. There it's clearly assumed that the speed of light is constant, and the experiments on which that assumption is based are explained, and from there it's mostly logical deduction. In other topics that is sadly not the case. I would love a physics education where you start with the experiments and work from there, instead of saying "Bam! Here are Maxwell's differential equations. Now deduce things from that based on hand-wavey arguments". I don't mean having the students perform the experiments themselves, just describe what somebody else did and what the results were, and why that led people to believe that the laws of physics are as they are. To make time for that, we should remove the endless by hand solving of special cases of special cases. We live in the 21st century. Instead use numerical methods everywhere, which easily tackle the general case. Got n electrons with initial positions and initial velocities, and you want to see what happens? No problem.

If they can't communicate with each other, why would they want to meet?

Assuming Mars is featureless (if it has features, they can both climb Olympic mons, for instance, as Mike Ash already said) and they cannot leave Mars (if hey do, they could have agreed before to meet in a bar in, say, Paris), the solutions I can think of all are a bit impractical:

- both dig a hole to the center of Mars and wait there for the other to arrive.

- both spread themselves out over half the area of Mars.

- both self-replicate until they cover the surface.

- at least one of them starts annihilating Mars.

If they are allowed to discuss strategy beforehand, the following will work:

Both walk straight ahead along a great circle. When (not if; great circles cannot not intersect and not be the same) they meet the trail of the other, the slower one stops at the intersection, and waits for the faster one to return on its path.
Indeed: I solved this minor issue with a 23 line C program that compiles to a 8766 byte binary. It's really not a big deal.

(Mine doesn't pass on signals, but that's not important for us.)
Is there any system for error recovery in userspace? Something like, I’ve got directory DATA, i want to create a recovery file for all the contents in such directory. Ideally I’d like to be able to tune the size of the recovery, larger recovery = recover more errors
I use Hacker's Keyboard. It is good enough for me.
No matter the implemented package manager solution, it has deal with different packages types: from a single class library (a single hpp file) up to monster libraries like ffmpeg.

In the case of ffmpeg, what the package manager should do? Download the sources and all its dependencies and build from scratch? This is very difficult and time consuming.

Because right now the alternative is going to the ffmpeg website, download and include the dll (and lib) or .so and a couple of .h files to your project. And that's pretty simple to me.

OS/2 Warp was nice to work in and fully object oriented too. It was just too resource intensive and by the time they shipped, Windows was the default.
Make it easier to switch, is the answer.

That was my thought process evaluating alternatives this morning. Signal is apparently lauded by the privacy crowd, but I took one look at it and said "no way is Mum going to use this".

I went with Telegram because the usability was good, WhatsApp-like functionality, and I saw a few people I know already on it - non-techies in particular, which is vital if we're going to disrupt WhatsApp.
I'm surprised he hasn't rearranged his garage to fit his truck in so he can do his testing from there. It's hard to tell for certain from the picture but it looks like it should fit height-wise.
Fair criticism. I should add those docstrings. Issue opened: https://github.com/jsvine/spectra/issues/1
As absurd as all of those generally are, I don't think any of those are remotely as absurd as retaliation against a teacher for teaching from a book that calls historical colonial slaughter "genocide".
My feeling is that topology can help your abstract thinking as it's likely to be in engineering, but abstract algebra less so. Having said that, if you're not actually inclined to take these subjects, you'll probably end up struggling and not caring.

Topology, and the insights it brings, can make some of the analysis and linear algebra make more sense - there are unifying concepts and structures. Abstract algebra is more about symmetries and actions, and while also useful, possibly don't give the same sorts of insights.

I see this is the Greek corner of the comments section, so I should also congratulate Stavros for going through the experience, and hopefully it altered his perception in ways that will help him in the future. Stavro, my offer still stands, if you're ever back in London, drop me a line and I'll buy you a beer.
I almost think you should link to the other post, Self Reliance: http://danielzarick.com/post/1642680958/self-reliance.

It was very applicable and actionable advice.
How do you remember your username to type it in?
What I want is Google Reader for my gmail, twitter, and facebook. But with the extra feature of de-duplication, so when my friend tweets and updates facebook at the same time I only see it once. Is anyone doing this?
Exactly. We are our parents' children.
Any language can have libraries, C is not special here, nor is Zig.

In fact, a few GC enabled languages have explicit SIMD support.
>Perhaps it's simply impractical on such modest hardware

I imagine it's not just the hardware limitations, but the available software. This one, for example being MS/DOS, where there were never really any serious server-side http/tcp implementations.

On the other hand, there were very busy BBS systems running on DOS where there had been time for years of various optimizations to happen.
A real time operating system can, by definition, not be cooperative. Definitely not a hard one and a soft one most likely not either, simply because it can not guarantee that it will process the interrupt quickly enough to be qualified as RTOS.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_operating_system

When you set a timer, which stops the running task to switch "to somewhere else", then it's not cooperative.

Can you elaborate?
How does international trade work under such a system? Does my iPhone get taxed as 100% profit with no allowance for cost-of-goods-sold?

If a country doesn’t make automobiles or refrigerators, are those taxed as if they were pure profit for the retailer? It’s not like a local retailer is going to manufacture even refrigerators, let alone cars or phones.
As someone who has also tried to avoid it but now failed: it is not all bad, but it is immature, opionated in weird ways and make some normally simple problems very hard. The advantages is that it in return makes some hard problems trivial.

So far I would not say it is worth it for most people. I also hate how much the community just runs random shit from the internet without any strategy for security patches or digital signatures.
When you teach an entire civilization that nature is for man’s exploitation, other living creatures have only the value that can be extracted.

With HTML you define a tree of elements. And you assign IDs and classes to those elements.

How is that not well suited to build a logical structure?
That's how we were taught a few years ago too! It really helped it "click" that array elements are stored contiguously.
In fact, I have little trust in people who don't take psychedelics, unless I have very good evidence that they have explored the dark recesses of their minds by some other means.

Cool line, but I can't quite place it. Is that from Col. Kurtz's soliloquy in Apocalypse Now? Or Gen. Ripper in Dr. Strangelove?
Python is not that bad to compile. For me, less than 1 minute for a full compile of Python. A full compile of Binutils + GCC + Newlib is much worse, but it's still well under 10 minutes. I'm not even using a particularly fast system.

Unreal is more comparable to projects like LLVM or Chrome.
Rather than having strict regulations to require password or OTP, the US has strict regulations that require banks to reimburse consumers for any credit card fraud.

I’ve had it happen a couple of times. It’s a minor inconvenience to switch over any subscriptions to a new card, but it has never cost me a penny.
