Interesting, will definitely visit, however:

Here is a challenge for you: try to find the location of the museum on their web site [1].

This is so, so common to museum/venue/restaurant web sites. Most of the time it takes you multiple clicks and a lot of scanning to find one piece of information that should be literally on top of every page: the location of the thing the web site is built for.

I think the problem comes from CMS or web site builder templates for businesses. This should definitely be revisited. A web site of something "visitable" in the real world should be centered around the physical location, and then the rest, not the other way around.

(P.S. if you have just guessed that the museum should be somewhere in the Arts et Métiers area of Paris, you are right)

>CSS today is so good that I now design websites in CSS

There are so many things missing that people are forced to use Javascript and a div-mess to implement widgets. Ex elements like dropdowns, numeric input, the small scrollbar that appears for elements, I am wondering if browser makes are just ignoring css and focusing on JS.(I admit flexbox and grid layout is cool)
The day than never ends.
A bit of explanation: In the old days of table layouts, the width attribute of a dt element would declare the maximum width of that element only. In order to provide a minimum width, you'd insert a transparent 1x1px image and give it the appropriate width. This could be used both for flexible (min, max) layouts and rigid designs, where everything would be positioned by a system of pole-like transparent images, much like in a Dali painting.

Note on both frames and tables: Right from the beginning, you could declare width and height units in HTML both in percent and in absolute units, like "px". However, Netscape browsers used internally only percents! Meaning, if you you intended to span the entire width of a document, Netscape would convert your absolute units to percent and from this back to px (using integer math for speed) and you would end up with some rounding error depending on the width of the browser window, which could add up to a deviation of 4px or so. Which was, of course, a constant pain, when you intended to line up elements, like a logo on top and a structure with a navigation and a main content area in different colors below.
no benchmarks yet unfortunately. While it should scale O(n) in the number of streams, there will be limitations to scale a single stream because the stream processing functions by default are executed synchronously (pending enhancement).
In today’s world, literally using bare html is probably better. Just list what you know and show some projects related to those. I like your animations, but I find it a bit weird... although I respect that you can still do that if you please

Which states:

> Valve sold 149K Index headsets in 2019. Sales more than doubled from Q3 to Q4 (103K) thanks to anticipation for Half-Life: Alyx, which was announced in November and is slated to arrive in March. The Index sold more units than any other PC VR headset during the quarter despite a steep price of up to $1000. It would have sold even more if not for inventory issues (the device is currently sold out worldwide).

It’s not hard to imagine gamers spending $1,000 USD for such a game changing (pardon the pun) piece of hardware. Being a gamer, it’s not unusual to budget $1500+ for a build, and if this is truly the future of gaming, it’s more than worth it to a lot of early adapters — especially for a new Valve game.

Anecdotally, I first remember watching a friend play Half Life 2. The combination of graphics, game mechanics, and gameplay led me to save all the money I could to buy a brand new computer that could handle it. Valve doesn’t release often, but when it does it’s so far been ground breaking and a total immersion of craftsmanship.

As a 7 year old Thinkpad user: 4th generation Core is absolutely fine for me. I can get a refurbished and kitted out replacement for some 200 euros. I could upgrade the RAM from 8G to 16G, but in my daily use I've seen no concrete reason to do so yet. SSD is great, though. Maybe I spend a few more minutes compiling software on this machine than I would on a more recent laptop, but I'm not losing sleep over it.

I can see why you'd want something more out of, say, a gaming PC or something you use for resource intensive analysis applications, machine learning etc. but getting a laptop for that seems like a waste of money to me, compared to getting a desktop computer that you can upgrade incrementally.

I'm interested, though. What is it that people do where you feel that your laptop needs to be more powerful than this?

Hey HN, for a bit of context PostgREST (http://postgrest.org) is an amazing web server that turns a PostgreSQL database instantly into a RESTful API.

You can do some amazing things with it such as querying through table relationships and advanced filtering.

We found that writing the URLs for some of the more advanced functions of PostgREST can be a bit tedious and error prone so we wrote this library.

This is a JS library that make postgREST "feel" more like an ORM. A lot of inspiration was taken from SQL Alchemy. Also, we owe a lot of credit to this library which we originally forked: https://github.com/calebmer/postgrest-client

If you haven't already tried PostgREST, I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Ah, I still remember native buttons being introduced. Good times, back when browsers could introduce features that seem so obvious in retrospect - such as spell check in text boxes.

Only for the fun of it (actually recreation), your sentence (phrase), slightly modified, in English and its possible translation in current Italian:

> English represents a strange Romantic-Germanic hybrid (Germanic by linguistic classification but with a tremendous/predominant vocabulary of Romantic origin). A more appropriate comparison would be with respect to a French/Italian/Spanish bibliophile.

L'Inglese rappresenta uno strano ibrido Romantico-Germanico (Germanico come classificazione linguistica ma con un vocabolario tremendamente predominante di origine Romantica). Una più appropriata comparazione sarebbe rispetto ad un bibliofilo Francese/Italiano/Spagnolo.

I have noticed that (in my experience) when you use in English the Latin-originated synonyms of more commonly used English (possibly Germanic originated) words you are perceived as having a higher level of education (and also as being a tad bit snob).

Great idea, I've signed up already.

I have a pretty obvious feature request:
I'd like to be able to pace weekly mails to a specific day of the week. I receive a couple of interesting newsletters, but they tend to arrive distributed all over the week and I'd prefer to receive them all for the weekend, i.e. Friday night.

So extending your original idea one could add more specific terms in your subdomain hierarchy. I.e. 19.friday.weekly.paced.email or 7pm.friday.weekly.paced.email.

I assume you should record the user's timezone on sign-up maybe? Or encode it too in a subdomain. I'm not sure which would be more consistent/simple idea...

I've you'd like to implement full cron schedules I'd assume you'd have to replace the wildcard * symbol somehow, but that seems more like an advanced/geek future and would have less appeal for mainstream users.
That's because the author intentionally added gaps via "grid-gap:10px" and changed the alignment via "align-items:baseline". You could easily undo either of these styles to achieve the desired effect.

Let me share a personal anecdote here. I once visited a large service company that worked on a micro base station for LTE. The project manager told me with pride that up to 1500 engineers worked on the whole project, which comprised the eNB and the EPC code network with all the management support.

Fabrice Bellard, with his company Amarisoft [1] developed a full software based eNB on his own, with a collegue to develop the "EPC in a box" software.

Now it may not be apples to apples, and since then Amarisoft team grew a bit (to ~10 nowadays?). But even if their eNB scheduler is not exactly comparable to an E///, Nokia or Huawei it does work and is commonly use in labs for testing. While I'm not sure the service company micro eNB was deployed for real.

Of course, short term, the quality of the game experience is going to determine the initial response in terms of Index and VR sales, but long term, the quality of the development tools is going to be a major factor, just like with HL2 and source. If the tools are easy to use, and allow for any mildly motivated individual to create original, unique, immersive, interactive, hands-on experiences (especially co-op or pvp multiplayer), it will truly be a new era of video game creativity.

I think "Verlan" is kind of old fashioned. It was a lot cooler when the boomers were young IMHO.

Some Verlan words are still in common use in the "banlieues" (i.e. rough neighborhoods), like saying "muff" instead of "femme", "tromé" instead of "métro", "chelou" instead of "louche", etc...

But there are many other slang words in use. A lot of borrowings from English ("cash") or Arabic ("flouz" meaning "money") are used too.

It's probably hard for an English speaking tourist to hang out in these areas. But if you want to get a "feel" for it, I would recommend watch "Spiral" which are some stereotypical "banlieues" scenes. But I suppose it's better than nothing... or going to the "four" to buy drugs.

In verlan you can ommit the last vowel or leave it. Most of the times it’s omitted. Here’s another example with « flic » (policeman):

Or with metro (underground):

Most geeks know the value of everything and the cost of nowt. Especially those costs measured in risk, be it risk of a code exploit in some mature stable part of the OS that almost nobody uses, or the risk of ceding a trillion-dollar primary market to competitors while preoccupied chasing secondary tails.

Having blown my first startup by sloppy unfocused mismanagement, I can attest to this lesson the hard way.

(And yeah, the only reason Macs still exist is because Apple has to protect the whole productivity ecosystem that puts Apps in its iOS Store. ’Cos the moment it cedes that foundation to a competitor, the whole company is lost.)

AMD's rather old Radeon VII can really smash a 2080 Ti if you're doing relatively simple streaming computation, like say video processing. That 1TB/s HBM is no joke, and there's 16GB of it, at ~half the price of the 2080 Ti with 11GB.

The Radeon VII is also pretty fast in training transformer networks. In some models that I trained, it was only ~25% slower than our Quadro RTX 5000s.
I guess the paradox of killing them all so quickly is it's unlikely the signal of poor quality propagates widely

Yep, I think you've hit the nail on the head here. I've worked with a lot of colleagues that could implement features faster than me, polish off more story points, or wreck me on whatever the metric of the day is, but if we were both CTOs of startups in the same market I wouldn't even break a sweat worrying about them (from a tech perspective).

Most businesses don't have access to top talent and they know it. Most businesses are specifically trying to create an environment where devs are interchangeable, and optimising their processes for the 50th percentile dev (if that).

The last time we purchased GPUs, we bought two Radeon VIIs besides RTX 5000s. For training transformers in Tensorflow and PyTorch, they were a steal, because the training is only marginally slower than the RTXes at a fraction of the price.

For LSTMs, we have found performance regressions compared to NVIDIA, but it's largely because it was hard to hit the optimized MIOpen code paths.

I love that, in pure French tradition, we went as far as designing a circumvoluted spelling for this word, with a « s » at the end. Proof that we have an intuitive reflex about where to put the S, even when there is no grammar rule for new words.
That's an exageration. Other than in an uptight office setting or by the employees in a refined establishment, these words (especially "ouais") are considered familiar but not rude to your interlocutor.

"tromé" might be a bit too young-sounding for general use, but nothing to do with politeness or social class. The well-off Parisian youth love to use these words.
This is the situation in europe at the moment:

As far as the rules on employee participation are concerned, three groups of countries can be distinguished in the 28 EU countries and Norway. In the first group, consisting of ten countries, there is no employee participation. In the five countries in the second group, employee participation is limited to state-owned or recently privatised companies. But the largest group is made up of 14 countries that provide for employee representation on the boards of private sector companies above a certain size. There are large differences in the minimum numbers of employees and other aspects of the procedures for employee involvement at national level.

As far as I can tell, adding pipefail or nounset doesn't change the behavior in this case.
