Sounds like a SaaS someone can create as an add on.
Throughput is important too?
From what I see, where there is a lack of dedicated lanes the roads are typically quite narrow--very little room for expansion for even a single dedicated lane (aside from the two lanes of regular traffic).

One section of the route is wide enough, but iirc, the residents along this particular segment in Provo fought against the dedicated lane (and won, afaik).
Sadly if you use the latest stream cipher that crypto people are hot on, and will often be the default in TLS 1.3, you’ll get no benefit :( ARM64 only has instructions for AES.

To me, AMP is just Google trying to turn the open web in its own walled garden.
I don't want a technical system designed to drag my attention to a website. (so no push notifications, to be clear)

That being said, it would be nice to see "new comments since last login" on my profile page... or something similar.

Edit: There may be a psychological reason not to do this though, because there are certain posts I don't want to think about anymore, and it's nice not knowing anything about them.

So if maybe there is a filter "only show comments on posts made in the past 2 days" or something, then I wouldn't get dragged into old discussions I am happy to leave well enough alone.

So, speaking of jailtime, where are the ROMs coming from? I see that the games simply work, and you can pick any you want.

I've been trying to make this concept, but distributed, so it can't be taken down. Curious if this will get kicked offline soon.

Nintendo is possibly the most litigious game company in history, and aggressively shuts down anything remotely associated with their brand. I wouldn't be surprised if this is already forwarded to their legal department.

Which, IMO, is a tragedy. There's no reason that projects like this should get shut down. Society is losing out.

EDIT: It's kind of interesting to think about how far we've progressed in terms of video game flexibility. And I mean socially, not technically. Look how easy it was to get fired for some harmless pranks just a couple decades ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaqdaVKP904 Nowadays no one would bat an eye at most of those. (The one attacking a coworker is admittedly a bit much.)

This is relevant because it seems like companies are way, way too attached to their IP, in precisely the same way that people were a bit too formal in the old days of gaming. By not letting people remix others' ideas, you're losing out on everything that could have been made.
Just thought to leave an aside for anyone considering working in Utah.

I Lived in Orem, Utah for a long-time super interesting state. Everyone is super conservative, no doubt, but they are the nicest people I've ever met. They can be "accidentally" racist and bigoted but I attribute that for their ignorance as opposed to hate.

The church itself governs and operates like a socialist country. Every church member in the world pays 10% of their income to the church, and that money in turn goes towards financing all three Brigham Young Universities - one in Provo Utah, one in Hawaii, and one in Idaho. So a student could get a private-school education for only $2000-5000 a year. The money also goes towards construction projects to build new temples and new churches. It goes towards relief for families that are struggling financially.

The state also has some the best national parks in the countries, and probably the best slopes to ski on.

I think people mentioned this but there is a pretty significant tech presence there as well.

Some downsides, everyone is Mormon is not a lot of stuff is open on Sundays, and even if you're a devout atheist, you'll probably go to church a couple times, because everyone around you goes and you have nothing better to do. Very little diversity, racially, ethnically, politically, religiously, it's almost like living in Japan, where everyone is nice to you but you'll always be considered an outsider.
I already have to turn off most notifications from various apps and sites as it is. I'll pass on that idea.

It's meant to be a minimalist kind of site and it does that well. I'd leave it as it is.

If you mean ChaCha20-Poly1305, looks like performance improvements may land in Go 1.12: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22809

ChaCha can be accelerated with generic SIMD instructions on any arch that supports them. Personally I think that's preferable to algorithm-specific instructions like AES-NI.
If you want to pre-load the page in the background in search results without allowing the site operator to track the user, they do need to serve it from somewhere they control.
I'm always amazed at what systemd can do that I don't know about. I had no idea about timesyncd. How did anyone find out about it? Is there a super awesome book or video of systemd "hacks" that I can read or watch? I think I've read the official docs but I don't think I really learned anything, but that was a couple of years ago.

Edit: Wow, just realized that my debian laptop is running timesyncd. I run the same debian version on all my servers too but I installed ntpd on them. I guess I need to check how their conflicting, if any...
They should make a bus system that can change any light to green when the bus shows up, and control the grid in other ways to truly expedite public transit.
This is pretty spot on, moved from the Northeast to Utah for school, now done with school and I'm enjoying my time here because I'm in love with the mountains but I'm planning how to move out of the state because I know that I will never feel culturally secure here. Being part of the outdoor community I never find myself struggling to find like minded people, but I do feel like an outsider to society as a whole.

> The core problem is that the FDA-approved devices are optimized not for getting the best result, but for ensuring the manufacturer can't be blamed if something goes wrong

No, they're optimized for reducing risk as much as possible. The amount of scrutiny on a commercial product from a Fortune 200 company is about 2 orders of magnitude more than any DIY project would ever get.
Despite being in academia, it's an interesting idea, though I wonder about the time period (what do you do after that year?) and honestly...I've spent enough time on the internet that "Independent Researcher" makes me twitch involuntarily.
Someone should issue a challenge to hotz et al. My guess is that this the intersection between diabetics and reverse engineering hackers is only a very small number of people, so this kind of device or impact it could have on people might not even be generally known in the community

Did `systemctl status` not report "degraded" for this failure? Maybe the problem is that there was no monitoring set up for failing services?

I don't get it. What's so bad about that?
there are lots of papers that attempt to reconstruct depth maps from monocular RGB images. It's not really my field but here is google scholar search for recent papers that cite a seminal older paper on the topic: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_ylo=2017&hl=en&as_sdt=...
that should be a decent start.

If you know the depth of a few pixels in the image, e.g. from a sparse keypoint-based SLAM / visual-inertial odometry system, then you can do better: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1709.07492.pdf

If you already have accurate camera positions, you can use something like occupancy grid mapping or poisson reconstruction to build the mesh.

> It's a lot easier to say "i can't do that, it doesn't work in AMP". If you can find a better way to convince large organizations that page load speed is a valuable metric, and more important that whatever other resource they want to load today, I'd love to hear it. But from what i've seen, AMP is the only thing that's had any success in tackling this problem.

Have google results punish fat pages. Then we can say "I can do that, but you have to sign this the declaration accepting responsibility for our page hits tanking".

Please no. Notifications are just there to increase the addictive factor for social media. HN doesn't need to increase MAU or time on site. There's no need for rapid response or a response at all usually. If you feel the need to navel gaze you can easily view the replies through your profile page. This is the last site on the internet that's not trying to hack my brain.

Thanks for clarifying. Good correction. I wish this data were easier to compare in an apples to apples fashion. :(

I can no longer edit my grandparent comment to account for your correction, so this will have to do.
I like the idea of an unseen counter for messages that are direct replies to my comments.
I turned off email notifications a while back, mostly because my two year old may have deleted some emails while playing a game.... but anyway I had no idea how annoying those email notifications were, after I turned off email notifications it was such a new and nice experience.

I had been very careful about email notifications unsubscribing and avoiding giving out my email address so it hadn't been a problem .... then I was laid off and decided to change careers and my email just exploded (sadly not with job offers yet). Turning off email notifications was really stress relieving.
Sales pitch:

- Extremely high ($10 billion plus) market opportunity, with a ~0.1% to ~1% capital requirement.

> IO remains flat for the past decade

Although I agree that storage density growth for HDDs has greatly outstripped any I/O growth, I don't agree that the latter has been flat (i.e. no growth).

Are you sure you're not doing something like comparing 7200rpm drives from 10 years ago to 5900rpm (or slower) or variable-speed "green" or even SMR drives from today?

That said, I think what many people forget is that for "cloud" storage, the I/O bottleneck is almost certainly going to be the network and not the backend storage, especially for mainly sequential access.

If each of their "pods" holds 60 drives and each "vault" holds 20 pods (17 of which are non-parity data), that's over a thousand drives per vault. If each drive is 7200rpm non-SMR, it can saturate a 1Gb ethernet with sequential I/O, and random I/O would divide that by 10 or so. That's the equivalent of 100Gb/s, per vault.

That kind of bandwidth is possible and even affordable to provision inside the datacenter without metering and charging for it and is likely to dwarf the size of the connection to the Internet.

I’m happy to see so many positive comments about Mormons here. I usually don’t mention that I’m Mormon in online forums since I see mostly negativity about the church. (It’s just me being self-conscious) We’re certainly not perfect but we do try to look out our neighbors, I’m glad that’s recognized on the outside as well.
Okay, thanks for the clarification. I suspected you'd meant the ecosystem wasn't there (yet), but wanted to make sure.

My parents still use personal checks everywhere they can. They are why many stores still post "no checks accepted" signs in 2018.
I think the “unread” counter still creates that somewhat intrusive and addicting feeling. If I post on HN I don’t really sit here refreshing to see if anyone replied. I just kind of come back at the end of my day and see what happened. It also takes a few more clicks to get to comments, threads, etc., especially for older posts and comments so it adds a barrier to that instant dopamine rush.

When I previously used Reddit it felt like I would just sit there refreshing all day waiting until that envelope turned orange...
Gotta love it when the headline of their marketing website is a flat-out lie. Most people cannot, in fact, "get" a Magic Leap. It's not even being offered for sale to the public.

When lies this clumsy and big are evident this early in a company's history, the prognosis is poor.
You let a stealth company shoot laser beams in your eye and then you looked at the sun? Are you blind now?
> especially for pointless trivial stuff like HN comment threads.

Since you never enter into a conversation you ensure all your replies are pointless and trivial.....

...except you will never know this. ;-)
No.

The last thing this forum needs is more back-and-forth bickering. Sometimes gotta let other people into the conversation and take the stage.

Forgetting to check to see if someone responded to you is a critical part of HN. I just don’t think every response needs a retort from OP.

I use mididings[1], which is a set of python bindings for receiving, transforming, and sending MIDI.

Using it xdotool[2], I've done things like used various MIDI controllers to send keystrokes, mouse movements, and mouse clicks to various applications that I use.

I suspect pretty much every task elevates PM levels.

I made a somewhat surprising and definitely unwelcome discovery by turning off the lights in my bathroom, flushing, and shining a green laser pointer around (Rayleigh/Tyndall scattering, etc.). Followed up with the same test while scuffing my feet on carpet and doing a few other everyday activities.

It was interesting, so I'd recommend trying it at home, but not right before dinner. Or breakfast. Or ever, if you have an overly vivid imagination.
> likewise resolving license plate numbers to owners (used to be possible in Switzerland)

Still is, depending on the canton. For Zürich you get 5 lookups per day per IP[0]. For other cantons they might charge you a swiss franc or so [1]. Cantons that charge 10-20 CHF and require a reasoning for why you need this data are in the minority.

Why is shutting it difficult? Any IP that logs into more than 5 accounts within a day gets a ban. They can use proxies but eventually will run out.

Analyzing Tools Used by Our Network
By "hard" do you mean "technically difficult", "socially awkward", "directly critical", or something else?

I've not yet commented on anything I've seen and would like to avoid irking their mods.
Of course I realise the planet is moving. The Time Machine is also moving, and in such a way that it retains its exact relative position to the planet. Amazingly it does this without any means of propulsion, relying instead on contact forces (weight, friction) generated by the gravitational attraction between the Machine and the planet.

Seriously, the point is that the Time Machine does not leave our space-time and appear in another. It simply exists through time, like a building or a rock or a pyramid. It is a four dimensional object where the Traveller can move along one of its dimensions.

Anyway, enough arguing about a fictional (and probably impossible) machine. Read the introduction to The Time Machine if you are interested in how H. G. Wells explained it:
