From the article you posted: "...it a solid performer even when under load for a long time."

Small case, excellent thermal management

From a simple, binary, "yes or no" perspective, the Mac mini clearly throttles based on the thermal condition. But, this is not a "gate," conspiracy, or anything of that nature. Everything with an Intel processor will adjust speed based on the thermal condition, with the severity of the slowdown and impact on performance depending on how much money you've invested into a cooling system if you've built the machine yourself.

All this said, we're impressed with how the performance on the Mac mini held up as the job progressed and time ticked on. The clock speed averaged out at around 3.4GHz to 3.5GHz under 100 percent CPU workload with the i7 models, but at no point did it drop below the 3.2GHz base clock speed —making it a solid performer even when under load for a long time.

Do you have comparative benchmarks between the Mini and a desktop under load for a long time?

Why would you think that an eGPU codesigned with Apple, where Apple wrote the drivers, to run on Apple hardware would have issues? I chose Black Magic’s eGPU since it appeared on Apple’s website, and I don’t know that market. But there are raw enclosures for $200 that let you put in any card with a supported driver.
People who want to hand someone off craiglist $150 for the entire console vs. dropping serious cash on marked up GPU to play the same triple A games.
I don't know that you can attribute bad eating habits to the recommendations of public health organisations. Perhaps the public is just not following those recommendations? My understanding is that processed foods and sugary drinks are consumed in great numbers, but that is certainly not in accordance with the recommendation of any public health organisations that I know of.

Also, as far as I know, public vaccination programmes have greatly reduced, and almost eliminated many diseases like measles, tetanus and typhoid, not just in the US but the world over, although of course measles is making a comeback.

Are you perhaps drawing a conclusion about public health bodies in western countries in general, from an experience with health services in the US? The US seems to be very peculiar in how it treats public health. I live in the UK and I wouldn't say that the national health service (the NHS) has collapsed. It has its problems and it's being attacked constantly but for the time being, it's working fine. The same is true for most central European countries.
Tracked by whom? Sounds to me what you have is a system that assumes you'll be reliable and reports negatively when you're not. That's fine. But it's still a system that tracks that your ability to handle debt.

Ask HN: How to get a part-time job in order to fund my startup?
I have no savings at all as I just graduated university. I dont want to work full time for a bit and then start a company, work experience is overrated, according to Paul Graham and Sam Altman. Also what part-time jobs? All I can see on the job boards are full-time jobs or part-time bartending/odd jobs...
I worked at a defense contractor, and aside from poorly managed bureaucracy (I submitted my clearance paperwork to Northrop, but Northrop didn't submit it externally for over a year), the main drag was being a company that billed the government hourly, which meant subtle / not-so-subtle cues to avoid cost underruns to the government by doing your job too quickly.
Conflicts which the military industrial complex has no interest in us ever getting out of, as recent events in Yemen demonstrate. Not to mention what's looming on the horizon in Venezuela or Iran.

That's not the point. Regressive in this context means that everyone pays the same percentage, regardless of their means to do so. A simple test is "whose spending will have to increase the most percentage-wise to cover the extra tax?" If the answer is "poor people", then it's regressive.

The average person doesn't matter. If a new tax pushes a borderline low-income person below the poverty line, that's a problem.
Bounced checks, or overstrung debit cards.

I think no history you are fine to open a bank. But I think if you have bad credit history (like previously bounced checks), you won't get approval for a checking account - or get a very limited account.
That's R&D in any industry. The question you're answering is not directly "how can we address what the customer needs today" but instead "what does basic science allow us to make within the purview of our company?"
Apologies for the confusion- I meant an affiliation with veganism and vegetarianism. I think of those as political views.
> People being given loans without due respect to there payment history led to an economic crises when they failed to pay them back at the expectex rate.

> Student loans, again given without normal consideration, have a higher rate of default and forgivenes.

Remember the common theme here is government underwriting and encouragment of loans outside of economic theory (or inside economic theory in a negative way, to be pedantic).

If someone buys a dangerous guard dog that has historically saved lives but mistreats it and it harms someone innocent, do you blame the dog?

To exit the analogy, it is capitalisms job to make money and the governments job to regulate. Capitalism has catapulted America and the rest of the world into an absolutely unparalleled standard of living where right now is the greatest time to be alive literally in history. However, the regulatory piece is wavering and doing damage. Corrections need to be made with minimum neccessary force to not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Someone linked it during previous discussions, but it was summary posted on Quora here. I'd consider them equivalent:

> People that really understand political economy have a saying: “capitalism implodes into fascism.” That’s because it produces mass poverty, not riches, decline, not upward mobility — and the new poor then turn on everyone, neighbours, friends, allies, values, morals. If that sounds eerily like America today... then you should be able to see America tomorrow, too.

So much wrong in one paragraph. "People who really understand have this saying," so if you don't agree with the saying, you don't really understand. That's a nice little manipulative technique. Second, the saying sounds like it's saying that capitalism always does this, not that it's a failure more (maybe even the primary failure mode) of capitalism.

Then there's the sentence after the saying. Capitalism produces mass poverty? Nah, capitalism's not that great. It actually produces mass poverty more inefficiently than any other system. ;-)

But it's still a real problem. The US middle class is dying. The bottom half of the middle class is dead. I mean, they can still live like the 1950s middle class - a 1950s-size house, one car, very little eating out, no electronics, and a 1950s life expectancy. That's not very good for a first-world country with a great economy.

So: We were leading the world. Now we aren't. What broke? My guess: globalization. It's hard to have first-world wages when you have to compete with people making third-world wages. The result is that our lower middle class effectively do not have first world wages.
I think that, in general, it's bad when people take out loans for things that they don't need and can't really afford. I'm mostly not a fan of, say, buying a big screen TV on credit.

However, although some will overspend, it's mostly a positive that home ownership isn't limited to the wealthy (and even the moderately wealthy may not have sufficient cash on hand in high CoL areas). Furthermore, even those young people with great jobs probably need to borrow for purchases like cars.

So I don't think people should overextend themselves but I don't have a problem with people using debt sensibly as a tool.
The APR is very prominently displayed during the application process. Does the CARD Act require it on the landing page specifically?
I had a similar path to Emacs: became really proficient with Vim, avoided Emacs since everyone I knew hated it, saw someone doing things with incredible speed and efficiency in Emacs at Enova (hi Kyle) that I had never imagined could be done, tried Emacs myself, and spent weeks customizing it to become extremely fast with rapid development in Clojure using CIDER.

But now that I do vanilla front-end dev, I have found VS Code to give me nearly all the same productivity I had before, but with practically no configuration, and in an editor that actually has reasonable per-pixel scrolling. (Emacs added per-pixel scrolling in 2017 but still got it wrong somehow.)
I have asked.
I did a module in my undergrad degree that used Prolog as the learning tool/language. At the time I didn't understand why Prolog was such a different paradigm (declarative); all I remember is feeling a true sense of joy writing prolog code and running it.

I've never found/made up a reason to try it out since then and no language/system/paradigm has given me the same enjoyment since!
Three million US students don’t have home internet
If the spirit of the site is "someone advocating suicide and telling a board full of people - many of whom are young - that life is downhill from 18" is perfectly kosher, then I think you do want to ban me, because I find that abhorrent. Sucks that that guys life went badly, boo hoo etc, but the least we can do is prevent his poisonous mindset influence even more people.

So yes I can see why you find my comment objectionable. If you did not find his comment even more objectionable, let's call it quits.
I see this with eggs and wood a lot in the more rural areas of New England. I think it's a simple case where whatever (if any) shrinkage is still significantly less than the cost of monitoring
Perhaps you could. Personally, I think it's impossible to get an accurate comparison in this way.
I think it is. I only spend what I can afford to, and I have never carried forward a credit card balance. The only reason I use credit cards is because of the consumer protections, benefits, and cash back I get from them. Assuming spending behaviors are fixed, one can make more money buying things with a credit card than buying things with any other payment method. That said, none of those aspects _should_ in any way be inherent to holding debt, but so it goes.

I don't object to _all_ debt. Yes, I took out a loan to buy a home and pay for my education. But the former made more financial sense for me than renting, and the latter is paid off and a big reason why I have the income to afford a home in the first place.

It's problematic how normalized holding credit card debt is in the US (at least, it is more so normalized than elsewhere in the world).
>The average credit card has a balance of over $6k;

Wow. That’s insane for an average.
On my part? Yeah. Could be.
I am toying with the idea of constructing a virtual social network of artificial persons. It should have a population of artificial people each having a believable friends and family.

How do I go about making a believable social graph?
Not everyone is privileged enough to be able to afford to live close to their job. This is about raising quality of life across the board. People who have the "I've got mine, so fuck you" attitude are a blight on society.
Do you think that person is a Tesla Marketing account? They also posted about spacex
Not convinced about the subreddit stats tbh. I've been subscribed for many years but I stopped building hackintoshes 3 years ago. It's a shame the comments/posts are limited to 1 year only.

Former enterprise AWS consultant here. Renting and leasing tech (AWS, GCP, Azure) is $$$$. At scale, a little cloud is okay for limited uses, but going down to EBGP and floor-up is cheaper. If a shop can't handle that, rent actual hardware (co-lo), not virtual servers because they cheat you with over-subscription.
On the flip side, if Salesforce does not own its own BI stack, their customer might go to a different vendor that has better integration (i.e.: Microsoft PowerBI).

How hard would it be to create an alternative using GPT-2 or the like?

Create a dozen models based on different things. Street signs, cats, houses, cars, etc. Then show the user a random selection of images generated from different models and say "select all the cats" and they get it right if they choose the images generated from the cat model.
Payday loans are often 300-600%. Or at least were in many states before regulation was passed. See here for details state by state:

https://paydayloaninfo.org/state-information

That said, APR of 20%+ on high reward credit cards is not uncommon. I have various cards with various APRs over 20%. I have never paid a penny of interest on them so I don't track which APR is which.. usually the juicier the "reward" of a card, the higher the APR. Which matters not if you fully repay.
I'd say the two approaches are:

- Editors that prioritize text operations

- Editors that prioritize AST structure operations

IDEs are the latter.
We're all grateful for Daniel's contributions to the Rust project and to the state of open source security in general. I certainly don't bear him or anyone else involved at the time any ill will.
I mean, if you don't trust the sources, you can use your own. Or if you don't trust the software, don't use it. It's up to the end user to decide what is in their best interest. I believe the included lists are trustworthy and I use them myself.
Frontend-development in JS/TS is already complex enough. I can't figure out why you'd want to split up an application into "micro-applications" and provide a worse end-user experience with multiple SPA loads.

When will this madness end? Sure, if you're developing an absolutely massive system with dozens (hundreds?) of developers, I can see the potential benefits outweighing the downsides to this approach. But the fact is most frontend applications do not fit into this category (much like microservices - I've written plenty and never had to scale one beyond a single node.)
Yay! And the fucking needful is being done
Yeah, the MI2 ending was definitely bizarre, but for me it was an off-the-wall way that made me really interested to see what happens next... Kind of like the ending of Nightmare on Elm Street 2.

Apparently Ron had a final chapter in mind for Monkey Island, but with Disney/Lucas owning the rights, we'll probably never see it. I'm guessing the last chapter might do a bit of retconning on the final moments of Part 2, but no one outside of Ron apparently knows how it ends. :(
Ive never heard that said by altman/graham, but i highly (highly) recommend working a few years before starting your own company. Otherwise you won't have the context or the understanding to deal with issues as they come up.

Frankly I'm shocked hearing this sentiment. Would you trust an inexperienced developer to architect a production ready system?

Businesses are infinitely more complex than software. Why would you trust yourself to run a business with no workplace experience at all?
Silly that the page didn't link to IndieWeb.org - a whole community about exactly these principles.
Because if this takes off, and BYND owns the market, they will in fact be worth that and more.

If. But their odds aren't too horrible, and the potential market is rather large.
This kind of instruction, in general, is not often emitted by compilers under normal circumstances, but can be essential to get good performance in e.g. encoding or decoding H.265 or AV1, or decompressing the best compression formats.

What makes these formats hard to do fast with regular code is that they may have been designed to work through dedicated hardware; or they just really pack in the bits.
I use mu4e. No better way of ripping through emails and getting down to inbox zero. When there's an email I need to action I can very quickly turn it into an org-mode task, and then archive it, knowing the task will contain a link to the email body. I rarely have more than 10 emails in my inbox.

Org-mode is like a Swiss army knife. I honestly started using it, unaware of the whole GTD functionality. I was using it as an alternative to markdown, as it allowed me to use CSS with the exported HTML. Then I learned of the GTD aspect and started using that as well. Now I have my init file written in org-mode using babel to drag out the lisp.
Both Amazon and Apple have law departments larger than most large startups. It was intentional. They know nobody will do anything. So really, it's a case of "tech company pretends to be incompetent at pretending to be a bank."

Is that a lecture about opportunity cost?

Consumers can vote with their dollars. I’m not sure why you don’t think we can’t channel money in various ways. A lot of money has gone into AID’s research, for example, and a lot of progress has been made.
Well, I'd love to know the site URL. Maybe that'd help people here give you a bit more feedback about why it might not be succeeding right now.

Still, how have you promoted it? Have you done some backlink building? Work with influencers to get the word out? Partnered with some media outlets/let them know you exist? Promoted the service via ads? Built up some active social media accounts?

Because for good or bad, its generally the offsite work you do that really makes your site or service popular now. Don't get me wrong, the on site stuff like site speed and page structure is important too, but it's important in a 'won't scare off/frustrate those that find the site' kind of way.

Hope that helps a bit.

> Apple has doubled-down on its refusal to sell user-serviceable, upgradeable, and expandable hardware at prices that are within reach for most customers

Apple needs to bring back something like the Quadra 700, which was only $5700 in 1991. ;-)

Though I suppose what you are asking for is actually the 1st gen Mac Pro, which was $2500 in 2006.
Those may be security exploits, but the real malware is what gets installed through Google Play.
vim is worth learning as it's on most systems and you'll probably need it in a pinch -- perhaps dozens of times, in some cases. Although nano seems to be on everything these days and it's much more approachable. But, I've learned to love the power of vi/vim, so I use that.

Somehow I've gone 30 years working without learning any emacs. Every time I try I get turned off by its philosophy pretty quickly. It's not for me, but maybe it's for you.
> That leaves most people living in vehicles without a legal place to sleep.

In LA, that is.

For the estimated $20-30 per night the article states this might cost, we could get these people into actual housing in the midwest.

Until they've tried that, I don't really care what problems people in LA have. These people are addicted to LA/California.

We're eventually going to get over trying to let everyone live in the most popular cities in California and we'll be better for it.
That's fair. But you aren't the one I was asking. I get the impression that that wasn't danharaj's alternative.
Valuation inflation / delusion only really matters if you’re the last one left holding the bag. So long as there’s someone else willing to buy the game continues for another round.

I experienced a similar problem. I'm using Firefox. Two websites I have great difficulties logging into are twitch.tv and italki.com, both require solving a google captcha that can sometimes take more than a minute to solve.

I am working on a micro-payments system (based on mutual credit) that should allow to pay something like $0.001 instead of solving a captcha. If this would introduce zero extra friction, would you consider using this kind of solution over the traditional captcha?
Because it's a bubble.
Awesome, glad to see dumping ice water on your head and uploading it to social media accomplished something.
Short Answer: he is riding the Gig economy just like Uber etc.

Most viable businesses with a steady revenue stream can afford to rent office space and furnish it on their own. But the self employed folks -- the web designeers, SEM experts, and various other professionals without a steady employer need a place to work. For some, working from home is not an option due to regulation or family consideration etc. For most, working from a coffee shop is a very bad idea for various reason including ergonomics. WeWork fills this niche. Is this a $47B niche ? very unlikely .
At first glance, this new tracer seems to yield a lower normal tissue uptake, and the reduced background signal could make it easier to locate tumours. FDG gets taken up by several organs inc heart and brain, whereas this tracer doesn’t appear to do so to that extent.
> Our government, on the other hand, should not be motivated this way. Rather, government should be motivated by the welfare of the entire population, and by reducing all of the costs of crime or undesirable behavior.

Except... it's not. That is literally what people are referring to when we talk about the prison-industrial complex. The government absolutely does have a profit motive (and it turns out, it's the same profit motive shared by private industry, just captured or executed by the state instead).
In this case, the Rolldown was specifically designed to increase the payouts in order to encourage more people to buy tickets.

This is a feature, not a bug.

The bug was the fact that it was only two groups of people figured this out.

Nobody improperly took anything from anyone.

This really only shows how much the lottery is an innumeracy tax. There was nothing hiding the fact that you can safely risk more and win more -- everyone had full access to this knowledge -- it was published right at the place of purchase. It is not like it was some insider secret available to only to friends of some corrupt programmer or something. It took him only 3 minutes to figure it out. You or I could have done the same.

So, totally fair.

Those factories and workers would disappear from the US to the EU / elsewhere. If you were ordering planes, why would you risk ordering brand new planes from the remnants of a company killed by its own government?

Again, I'm not saying they did no wrong. I'm just saying criminal accountability for those responsible is better than corporate death sentences.
