There are a lot of cliche comments here about Dieselgate and German manufacturers vs Tesla. The threat isn’t Tesla, Tesla will do very well but isn’t going to take over the world, it’s that manufacturing EVs doesn’t need a lot of the established supply chain, and doesn’t need the same level of employment. Mercedes, VW, BMW etc will be fine, but a lot of their specialised suppliers will go bust, and a lot of jobs will be lost.
my understanding was that the appreciated value of short-term capital gains aren't deductible as a donation. only the cost basis.

that said, donating stock that has a long-term capital gain is still extremely tax advantageous.
Interesting.

I've been an hhkb user for close to 5 years. What's not mentioned in the article is the location of the pageup/pagedown hotkeys located to the left of the arrow keys. So much of the keeb is well designed including the choice of topre switches which make typing a joy. I agree with spending money on a few things, comfortable shoes, keyboards and bed sheets.

I think you buried the lead here. American public schools, part of the American government charged with teaching children and funded by taxes, don't teach kids how to pay taxes to the American government (maybe it sometimes happens, but it's certainly not standard.) It's ludicrous.
Not the lowest in 3 years either. It's actually just over 2 years:

I just looked at sincerely, and that looks like it only prints 5x7 photos and mails them, not actual postcards. Maybe that's why it starts at $2 each.
No one understands economics.
The EU prices include ~20% VAT, so it's more like $27500 to compare to the US Model 3 pricing. And they said under 30k EUR - we're both assuming exactly 30k.

The lowest end specs you're quoting are smoked by the Model 3, but it's a car made for Europe where low range EVs sell just fine.

The high end spec has a larger pack than the Model 3. Most likely less range as Tesla does well at efficiency, but it won't be anything to sneeze at.

The ID4 is coming to the states. They're skipping their Model 3 and just sending their Model Y equivalent, which I think makes a lot of sense.

It will have a tariff applied, but still be eligible for the full 7500 credit.

They're not going to win over any hardcore Tesla fans, but these cars are a serious effort and they're going to sell well.
What kinds of graphs? There are a number of graphical representations that turn out to be incredibly useful in category theory, but they're far from equivalent. IIRC, https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.05316 introduces some of them.
Kravatte (briefly mentioned in the paper), Keyak, and Ketje (all using the keccak permutation) do use fewer rounds than SHA-3, e.g. 12 in the case of Keyak.

The paper is describing what cryptographers have been doing the past 5ish years at least (see various CAESAR contest entries, the forms of Masked Even-Mansour that use 4 or 6 rounds of BLAKE2b permutation, etc.), but maybe encouraging them to push more in that direction.

there's an isomorphism, because bf is np complete, as is simply typed lc.

simply speaking, bf can implement lc, and vice versa, which would proof the claim.

Edit: the ugly bit is that IO is always an ugly hack and potentially makes the program indetermined and thus impossible to proof a priory. but one can probably prove that they are equivalently unprovable.

I don't fully understand what you mean by your first few sentences. You could use some dynamic DNS service for your domain, or host your own on the lowest end VPS and point that to your own connection, if it is reasonably fast, and then have some cheap and energy efficient SBC/NAS running some Linux serve your content with something like

That doesn't cost me more than about 35 €uros per month (of which i have to pay 29,99 anyways for my line) and maybe 3 to 4 €uros energy (which is expensive where i live).

> "sometimes you can file stuff under different rules that produce different results, despite both being valid (I say this based on experience from another country, but I suspect the same is true in the US)."

Yes, such circumstances exist in the US too. For instance married couples usually file jointly, but they could chose to file separately which results in a different effect.

You said "stop insulting walmart shoppers", but we're talking about intellectual labor. It's not an insult: I don't think given pen and paper but no google, the average person can solve 2x-7=11 for x. (Algebra 1.)

I'm not saying his work is necessarily low quality.

Likewise for Fowkes and poor credentials and track record.

As a user, if I have a key and an encrypted file, aside from actually decrypting the file, all I care about is ensuring that the software can confirm that the encrypted file was encrypted using the same key. Why should this be complicated?
Yeah I don’t want to write my own libraries but create new layers from the existing numerical algebra layers.

I was originally trying to create a new type of convolution layer in Keras and asked in their official google board, stackoverflow etc , after being stuck for a while but the answers I got weren’t solving the problem.

I haven’t tried creating custom layers in Pytorch yet though so maybe it’s possible to do so with Pytorch and can just learn C++ for other purposes.
If your goal is to join large CSV files using a local program, the ideal tool is not SQLite but DuckDB:

https://www.duckdb.org/docs/current/sql/copy.html

The reason why DuckDB is a better fit for this job is because DuckDB is a column store and has a block-oriented vectorized execution engine. This approach is orders of magnitude faster when you’re doing batch operations with millions of rows at a time.

In contrast, SQLite would be orders of magnitude faster that DuckDB when you’re operating on one row at a time.
The corporation can only do things like automate away the cafeteria if its employees let it. The point of a union is that workers - the people who do all the work and keep the profits rolling in - take back some control and decide things like this for themselves.

It's defeatist, and extremely unrealistic, to think we just have to roll over and let the bosses do whatever they want just because that's what we've always done up til now.

There's not some deterministic invisible power that says immiseration via automation is inevitable. It's just a matter of collective will as to whether we accept or reject power's desire to screw us over in that particular way.
I agree it’s a more reasonable comparison. However is that pricing including a tariff on one or both of them? 55,400 USD for the Model 3 is 58% over base US pricing and the ID 3 jacked 36% @ 41,630 euros vs the stated 30k euros in Germany.
So what would you call the application of the compiler enforcing non-race condition patterns of it's not a "race checker"?

Ah. I haven’t played around with Pytorch custom layers enough so I am going to give it a try. I was initially trying to do it in keras but Keras was just using tensorflow layers for most operations so I couldn’t tweak the original tensorflow layers through keras easily.

You could also use the coolant to pull heat off the stove (obvs with appropriate safety built in) and run the hot side of the TEC within spec.

>> now I spend maybe $60 a year on new razors and soap

I've heard that it's much cheaper to go this route, but people who use Barbasol and disposable razors from Dorco (particularly with coupons that show up regularly every quarter on Slickdeals) spend less than this every year as well.
The author gave them his username and password. The research team could also ask for the 2FA token. 2FA doesn't prevent this kind of attack.
I like his approach.

He sold short SPY and QQQ. Those are very liquid and he will have no problem being able to cover if the market moves against him. He's not shorting individual stocks.

I just did something similar. I bought puts on both SPY and QQQ. As the author notes, I had to pay a put premium. I will exit quickly if the market continues to go up at the beginning of the new year.

There is one advantage to buying puts instead of shorting. If the price of puts (the implied volatility) goes up, the put becomes a leveraged bet. A put can go up in value even if the market goes sideways. Of course that is just short term, longer term there are many other factors such as time decay involved.

Parent was making the point that we have no computer with a similar architecture as the human brain (billions of tiny compute elements). Artificial neural networks try to simulate that, but the simulate billions of parameters on thousands of core (CPU/GPU).

Of course it's highly inefficient, just like for the brain is highly inneficient to exactly multiply two numbers.

So you also suffer of Dunning-Kreuger, you imagine that all that computers can be are von-neumann machines.

Show HN: Conversion Checklist
1. This doesn't make any sense. The easiest way for the government to impose more taxes is to raise the percentages on the taxes they already collect. Private filing has nothing to do with it.

2. Americans don't have the lowest tax rates in the developed world. Mexico, Ireland, Chile, Turkey, and South Korea all have lower tax rates[1]. And in some cases the governments provide more services with less money because they're not spending half their budget on occupying other countries.

If the government can pre-fill my tax form, why should I even have to file taxes to begin with? Just send me the pre-filled information each year and tell me I need to correct it if it's wrong. Otherwise, I shouldn't have to do anything.

Checking two full hashes and requiring both to match only improves pre-image resistance. However, you now need twice the space to store the hash and efficiency suffers, likely wose than the sum of the speeds due to cache effects of running two different algorithms on the data. If you use shorter or weaker hashes you might end up with two breakable hashes (either now or by some potential quantum computer) rather than one unbreakable hash.

Some package systems store multiple secure hashes and pick one at random to verify.

> otherwise stuff is being given away for free, which we assume probably doesn't happen

It sort of does, in that we export USD. Using USD outside the US requires holding USD. Inflation means you need a continuing flow of USD to maintain that balance. Thus, on net the US is actually selling USD for goods.

“Federal Reserve data from 2017 showed that the number of $100 bills exceeded the number of $1 bills. However, a 2018 research paper by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago estimated that 80 percent of $100 bills were in other countries.“ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_one_hundred-doll...

This is countered by people in the US holding foreign currency, but the US is very much exporting currency on net.

It would be pretty straightforward to parametrize those functions so you could fizz buzz on any numbers, not just 3 and 5. Or is that not what you meant? You want a system that can solve any problem? Then you’re looking at a computer algebra system. SageMath [1] is a nice one.

If you're "just a normal person with a few computers at home", it is VERY easy to obtain secure copies of LTSC for free if you look in the right places.

And I can attest to how pleasant LTSC is to use as an everyday consumer desktop - I'm using Linux now, but I never had problems with drivers/hibernation/multihead/administration/updates/etc. (some common complaints people have with Linux and Win10 Pro/Home) on LTSC. It's especially good if you need big proprietary software packages, of course.
Battery prices are still falling 10-15% a year. So needing to replace the battery 5-8 years from now won't cost as much as needing to replace an ice engine. And the way Tesla batteries are lasting so far I think you could probably get a good price for the old battery as well. So the cost people keep talking about battery replacement

Probably because a GC is tightly coupled to the runtime system of a language, and using a different GC requires rewriting the entire interpreter.
Yep. It's uncommon on small GA aircraft. The consequent risk is considered "acceptable".
It is endemic, however this year it has been particularly bad. Firstly, I can’t recall a fire season that went for this long. It’s getting well into it’s second month now and doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

Secondly, the fire fighters are saying that it has been exacerbated by a lack of fuel reduction (basically back-burning). This has been not from lack of wanting to do this, but the climate changed such that they have been unable to find sufficiently long enough periods to back-burn safely.

So the answer is - as a nation we are used to, and expect, bushfires. They wouldn’t normally cause massive concern - which is probably why Scott Morrison went on holidays during bushfire season - but this year has been the worst in recorded history.
It is hard to see how that one can be ambiguous.
