thank you. I was running into a JSON parse error on a script for a couple of days. I love JSON but this compact notation using rison helped me quickly debug the error! :-)

Thanks again!
Rebuttal: There's good evidence that "thinking critically" is not a skill that can be divorced from domain-specific expertise. In order words, the capability to be a critical thinker is in direct relationship with one's competency in _specific domains_ and cannot be generalised.

I don't disagree with your conclusion but your logic is incorrect.

If there was no food or water in the US then there would also be zero gun homicides. Food and water are obviously not a cause or related to a problem but the logic is exactly the same.
Basic CS/programming. I would have loved to have the opportunity to take something in high school comparable your average CS 101 class (and stretched out over two semesters for sanity purposes.)

I would have gotten much more out of that than something more general or less technical.

Its still possible to do this. You do wear level between the blocks containing the firmware and the logs.
In desktop case, Plasma is ahead of Gnome in features and functionality. Not sure what you refer to in regards to padding, but Gnome has its own UI issues like lack of server side decorations for SDL windows and such, due to Mutter being very limited.

Can't say about Plasma Mobile though, but that's the point why investing effort into that would be useful. The base is more promising than Gnome one.

It's pretty typical. If the cabin is pressurised to 6,000ft (standard in a 777) and the aircraft is at it's rated celing of 43,100ft, that's about a 9psi difference.
I love it. I ended up buying an Alienware that I got on sale, so my computer has some amazing performance stats, but was very cheap. I think I got about 4x for my money in terms of compute and build quality compared to a mac. 17 inch screen, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB harddrive +256GB SSD, 1080 GPU, great keyboard and build quality. The WSL is great, I have had no issues. I mostly do machine learning and large compute related work, but develop APIs and such as well. I have had no issues on WSL, but am also not an expert in how a regular linux system should function. It just seems you get best of both worlds, microsoft reliability, linux dev environment and tools. Working with python can be a bit annoying, in the sense that tools like PyCharm expect to use the windows interpreter, so it is the case that I have an interpreter that I use from the command line and an interpreter that I use for IDEs. Other frustrations would be installing things like CUDA on windows means that I need to run GPU related programs on the windows interpreter, since I dont think CUDA built for linux plays well with WSL. And if it does, its a huge hassle to figure out how to get things to work. So sometimes you get locked into how you run software, or having to use the windows version

There are a ton of complaints about Microsoft windows, but honestly, I love it. I think the complaints about how terrible windows is come from the early 2000s - 2010. The idea that it has terrible UX is outdated, and in my belief, is somewhat a result of apple branding than anything else. Microsoft is a different company now, and puts out some great products.

For the record I've been writing software for about ten years
OK, so you're not somewhere between ridiculous and insufferable, you're just insufferable.
We had some of that in school. In English class there was a task that had an article that went something along the lines of "Aunt sues grandson over a hug" with the article body describing how she fell over due to the hug and broke her arm and is now suing the grandson over it saying he was irresponsible. We were then ask to analyse the article. On the next page was another article about the same event but this time it went in to the details that the only reason the Aunt was suing the grandson was because it would allow insurance to pay for her medical fees and would not negatively impact the grandson.

It was a pretty eye opening task showing how 2 articles which both report only the truth can be twisted to bring about different stories/emotions.
As someone coming from web dev to back-end JS I take with me the love for instant feedback, which allows for extensive manual testing during development. And I also use automatic regression tests before pushing to prod. Node.js is infamously known to use small modules, it however gives you battle tested code run by thousand in production.

I usually take a front-end first aproach, but there are also lots of people taking a backend first aproache where they rely more on static analysis, compilation, unit tests and packaging - rather then manually testing every LOC.

I'm thankful for my mental health. Seems like these days half my friends are on anti-anxiety and depression medication.

I'm thankful for my physical health too. I may be a little overweight but it's still above average for my friend group. I get sick maybe twice a year, certainly beats being on dialysis or whatever.

I'm thankful for having a family, someone I belong to, and who belongs to me.

I'm thankful for having a good job. We get stressed out sometimes (downsides of a startup), but they're all good, honest folk. And we haven't adopted bureaucratic processes yet, so it's been great for my flow.
On iOS, you can type in the clipboard section. On Firefox on Android, it seems to work except for backspace. Chrome on Android doesn't seem to work at all, though.

At first the bottom address bar sold FFPreview to me as well. However, the popup soft keyboard makes it bounce around(up&down), which in some instances is really annoying. I'm happy to have learned the address bar can be moved to the top.
> I absolutely hate LEDs. I don't know why, but...

I'm really interested in the why. Most people don't seem to care. My in-laws have CFLs in their living room that just feel horrible to me, but they're none the wiser. I'm very curious as to what it is in the light spectrum that seems to matter to some (small) class of people, myself, and it sounds like you, included.

The word for "fire-like" light, used in my original comment, is "black-body radiation". Stars, fire and incandescent bulbs put out a similarly shaped spectrum.

A few years ago there were scientists working on a black-body (i.e. incandescent) light bulb that reflected infrared emission back to heat the filament and re-emit as visible light making for a theoretically efficient incandescent bulb. I check every year or so to see if the research has been commercialized, but have always been disappointed:

Edit: Another point on the blueness of LEDs is that they seem to amplify macular degeneration, which has made my grandmother mostly blind, and I know based on gene sequencing that I have a more than 50% chance of developing. While most of my rejection of LEDs is based on them not looking nice to me, I am also worried about hurrying the onset of blindness in old age for persons like myself who carry the genes for macular degeneration:

Python can easily get a B for large projects if you use something like mypy. However sure, where the language really shines is as a substitute for scripts, so smallish pieces of code.

And environment... It is complicated. It is not that it is that bad, however it sure lacks some polish. The solution is not easy either since even if you solved the problem today (like using poetry), there is still the whole backwards compatibility problem.

There is various hacks to make things easier, however in the end the problem is still more complicated than it should.

Has anyone successfully hacked any of these TVs to disable the smart features? I would pay some money for this kind of firmware patch on a future purchase. It seems crazy that the software is so terrible and yet nobody has found a way to disable it.

On the flip side, mains-voltage LEDs generally have built-in power supplies which should lead to them actually showing less dimming during brief voltage dips.
Yeah, r/physics doesn’t have a good opinion of this either: https://www.reddit.com/r/Physics/comments/e01bxe/dark_energy...

Sadly not. Seeding is entirely down to individual instances and their own redundancy policy.

I suspect the issue is that PeerTube is getting a NAT IP instead of properly determining its own external IP, which is causing problems streaming when it tries to get back to the origin. I'm pretty sure it's a simple enough fix, I just need to take a look at it in the light of day.
I’m thankful for the heart donor who saved my newborn daughter’s life last week.

My daughter contracted Coxsackie B enterovirus at 2 weeks old, and it scarred her left ventricle beyond repair. Her donor has given her a second chance. Another family had to make a heartbreaking choice at a devastating moment, and they chose to give life to my daughter and probably several other gravely ill infants.

Check your organ donor status please. Happy Thanksgiving.

Assume it was feasible to create a breathable atmosphere on Mars - that you could just melt the polar ice like in Total Recall, and boom, instant blue skies. Ignore the radiation Mars has been bathed in over the aeons, the toxicity of the soil, the low light levels which might make photosynthesis (and, thus, an ecosystem) impossible, and the lack of a magnetic field to shield the planet from solar winds[0]. How would you keep the necessary amount of atmosphere on the planet given its small size and gravity relative to Earth?

I've heard of people in this situation. I've also been the manager on the same level to someone who did this.

Going to the founders should solve your problem, but be prepared to deal with the guilt if the team lead is fired.

Usually the founders have no idea what's going on until you tell them. We had a project manager who used to lie to their team, which caused the team to protest. But we didn't know they were protesting because of the project manager.

> Google is working on integrating CUDA directly into TensorFlow

How is it going to untie it from Nvidia? The only way to do it, is not to use CUDA, but something portable that can target any GPU.

They should check for entombed alien spacecraft nearby just in case it's actually a shape-shifting Thing.
Is this problem correctly stated? Substituting in x=f(y) you get

f(f(f(y))) = 3f(y)

so

f(3y) = 3f(y)

This suggests a linear solution but then you get f(x)=sqrt(3)x which doesn't work since it's N -> N.
I kept seeing the following problem with several different LED lights we were installing until I found one that was better:
Take your phone and take a video of the lights when on (normal framerate should be enough, try slow-motion for further investing). Most lights I got from the local hardware store were flickering quite visibly. And I'm pretty sure it's a design insufficiency of the adaptor electronics attached to it, not the LEDs themselves. If I were to guess I'd say most of them probably go the simple path of cutting off the negative half of the AC cycle and feeding the rest directly, without a decent low-pass filter to the LEDs.

What worked reasonably well for me, was getting a normal DC power supply and a few LED strips (with fairly dense and higher power LEDs) and installed that in a room. That light feels pretty satisfying to me.

All that being said, I don't like anything even remotely close to daylight level ambience when I am working on a computer screen; the custom lighting I set up is for other living areas.
I tried to only put stuff in there that I've actually programmed with, and I just haven't done anything with JavaScript. My impression is bad, but I had a bad impression of C# and it's just okay, neither good nor bad.

Deploying a Python application can be a headache, but it's a good replacement for Bash and in DevOpsy scenarios where you're packaging Python along with an entire containerized OS and interacting with the web, Python works well. I find it pretty easy to prototype a webservice with Python, or to build tools for networking engineers. The fact that it's relatively easy to learn, yet readable, also makes it a good language to connect to people with. I can't always sell people on a strongly type functional programming paradigm, but it seems every reasonably young person knows Python these days.

But you're right, Python is a bit annoying at times, even though I like it's terseness and intuitiveness.

I know I will need a setup against S.A.D. because it's very real up there.

If I get 4 of the 120 watt fanless bulbs, the daily cost of the bulbs and running them 8 hrs/day (assuming 30,000 lifespan) would cost only ~$0.29/day. That's an easy choice against SAD.
Well, looks like everything is back up again.
Just want to counter this sentiment and say I love the fact they are targeting KiCad. A good way to incentivize the free, open source tool. Most hobbyists don't need more than 2 layers, and that seems like something that can be eventually expanded in the future.

24 hours, however, is a little bit long.

It would be nice to see exactly what they are offering before uploading a file, right on the front page. Some components absolutely need to be in a fixed position, some can be moved around... Some have RF requirements... Does it minimize size? Does it brute-force the traces?
Necro-reply here, but yes you got me. 2.63mm2 on 7nm is about 8mm2 on 16nm, which is same as the A72. And it was the A72, the A73's predecessor. I think the point stands that RISC-V is suited for high-performance designs, which was the original contention. If a startup can do 3-way OoO, an org with more resources can do 7-way OoO along with more sophisticated branch prediction and stronger cache coherency to catch up to state-of-the-art cores. There isn't anything in the RISC-V ISA preventing that.
There are a bunch of calculations about this in Dercuano, in particular based on indoor-growing setups, but with a chair in them instead of a plant pot. It turns out that fluorescent tubes or especially halogen bulbs are cheaper than LEDs, and at the small scale of a desk and chair, the extra energy is affordable.

One big problem for hackers is that very few screens are readable even in 10klux, let alone 100klux direct sunlight (although that has the disadvantage of burning you).
Can confirm that bitrot is real, especially with cheaper devices. And as far as I know, only ZFS in RAID configuration can detect and fix it today.

It’s a real pity that there is no competitors in this space. Every time I read about btrfs, I am sad that they don’t seem to consider it an important feature at all.
Why would anyone care about macOS for Tensorflow though? Even without CUDA, it doesn't support anything portable that targets GPUs either (i.e. OpenCL is in bit rot there, and Vulkan isn't supported to begin with). MacOS is a dead end, and Apple can blame their own extreme lock-in and NIH syndrome for it.
The website says there’s no human in the loop... but who knows.

It takes dsn input files and outputs ses files (if the examples are accurate).

The ses files appear to contain traces only. So I assume you would import these over your already laid out components.

Perhaps two layers is for the free version?

There doesn’t seem to be anything Kicad specific, maybe they’ve only tested it with Kicad. It seems to come from a team doing a bunch of AI stuff, not a hardware focused team. So I can see there being issues.

I’m curious to see how well it works though.

is it just belgium where we call these "center's" neutral elements of an operation, or did the rest of the HN geography just forget that term?
Most people enjoy that from a healthy, balanced lifestyle that includes some meditation. But spending most of your life focused on meditation doesn't seem beneficial.
That's human powered for sure. Routing isn't the hardest problem, everything is quick once all the components are placed where they belong.
E.g. TopoR already does quite a good job at the routing part.

But if you only take a schematic, and the design is sufficiently complex, it's already difficult if you hand it to another engineer who's not too familiar with what is being done, let alone a machine learning model.
From what I can tell, you need to position all the components and then it routes between them...
> Do LEDs really work for you?

All of them suck (objectively and subjectively) compared to full spectrum lamps.

> Does anyone else struggle with the light quality from modern lighting?

Besides poor light quality, another issue are dimmable LED lights which are often just PWM'd at a couple hundred Hz. This is a migraine trigger for me.
Could be putting additional time cheap fiber in the all new cables a solution to this problem? E.g. by an agreement between client companies, cable producers, and international organizations?
I'm not sure about the genetics of it (none of my family members seem to agree with me), but I also perform computer tasks far better in a dim light. A friend of me, who is also a night-owl, has the theory that when we get exposed to daylight, our cavemen heritage's natural reaction is to feel like going hunting/food gathering. While I don't buy the argument verbatim, I feel more like doing outdoor/physical activities on sunny days.
Not mine, found by DDG by a question like “rent 1080Ti GPU”, and there're more.

I don’t need their services, but I think the prices are reasonable.

Nvidia is way too greedy, they charged $5000 for server equivalent of a $700 consumer GPU. The major difference between the two GPUs is legal, not technical.

Cloud providers like Google or Amazon have little choice but to pass the cost to users.
To be fair, modern financial planning typically involves a bit of software. Double entry accounting tools or spreadsheets, for instance.
I hope this thread repeats each Thanksgiving on HN.
They should have added significant storage and a top notch camera and actually made it a $1000 premium product.
> Berlin, which is approximately as far north as Alberta, Canada, North America's northernmost large city

Presumably you mean the city of Edmonton. Alberta is about twice the size of Germany. ;)

> Do LEDs really work for you?

Mostly, yes. It's easy to buy halogens that all have pretty much the same good quality of light. LEDs you need balance CRI, R9, dimming quality, flickering, etc., but I've found LEDs that work for most of my use cases.
-I was laid off ~60 days back. Being on H1B( I'm an indian, who attended school here and been living here since last 10 years) means either I gotta get a job in 2 months or pack my bag. I got a better job and I'm gonna start working on this monday :)

Happy thanksgiving to y'all!
