I used to be an amateur road racing cyclist (no sponsorship or anything). The out of pocket expenses are not trivial. For a decent bike, looking around $5k and it won't even come with pedals. Pedals will set you back a moth $200-300. Shoes are around the same price. Mind you, this a little over entry level (you could probably get a bike in $2k range if you're talented enough).

For serious professional racing, the costs can be quite a bit higher. High end bikes, especially time trial, can easily be $20k.

Those are up front costs. Some of which are semi reoccurring. You put in enough miles, there are going to be accidents, you're going to go through tires and brakes. I dont recall what brake pads cost, but I think they were relatively cheap, like $15 per set. Racing tires were more expensive at $45 a piece. I used to go through at least 2 sets of tires per year, assuming no punctures.

I'm also on my second road bike, after having been hit by a car on a training ride (car ran a stop sign and T-boned me). Thing about carbon fiber: you really cant repair it. You have to replace it. When I got hit by the car, it cracked the frame, bent both wheels, ruined the pedals, fucked up the shifters and handlebar; basically totalled the bike. Also, screwed up my +$200 shoes.

So yeah, cycling is definitely more equipment intensive than even $300 running shoes.

I also used to be a distance runner in high school, and replaced my shoes far too infrequently (basically only when my feet grew).
Living on planets doesn't really make much sense in the long run. We talk about doing it, and terraforming planets, because we're familiar with living on planets.

Bezos sees that, though. He's a big fan of O'Neill cylinders and similar. It's Musk who wants to go try and get us to live on Mars.
If you wanted to rent an Airbnb and you couldn’t because your phone number was associated with a negatively reviewed account, anyone who had the ability to get a phone number has the ability to get a second. It may be a minor inconvenience but not a particularly costly one.

If I was a renter and wanted to disassociate from bad reviews, I imagine the easiest way to do it would be to transfer overship of the property to a holding company or similar. This is far harder to do and there’s far more cost.
UK will get a deal from Trump and will compete with Silicon Valley. Not to mention it can expand within the old colonies(i.e India, Africa, HK) maybe even get a great deal from China. EU is obsolete just like NATO!

PS: I don't really believe this stuff but this seems to be the plan.
As a kid in this era, toys lines of shows/books were an immense joy. I understand concern over teasing kids too much with commercial products.. but unless it devolves into large social mania..(in which case makes some regulations) I don't think it's a problem at all.

Toys are what kids want. They want to connect reality with imagination at their level. Just like video games.
When is the 2nd-gen 16" MBP scheduled for release?
I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. I'm not arguing if it's possible for consciousness to exist outside of my own. I'm arguing that insofar as we want to understand if it's possible to transfer the medium ones own consciousness "runs on" out of your own brain, it seems like experiments like the one I wrote may be able to provide some knowledge about the viability. It's still running on your brain of course, so it's not trying to actually do any real transferal, but it is showing the degree to which conscious experience can feel non-local, which is part of what would be needed to be a person externalized from their own brain. So it may not exactly provide evidence in favor or against transfer viability (though it might, since we may be able to see that it would result in ego death or some equally horrifying result) but it would provide evidence that the subjective experience of such a transfer has meaning, and what that feeling could be.

Now, once we get a brain/computer interface, things get really interesting. Because you can start to link minds, and even at low bandwidth, it may rapidly increase our understanding of the boundaries of what a conscious mind "is" and how much we should care about the "death" or "merging" of such things. It would be quite impactful, to say the least, to see that if you connected a person's mind to that of a simple organism in a bidirectional interface, if over time they act as though they had a single consciousness (probably mostly represented by the person's prior self, but perhaps with characteristics of the organism leaking in the other direction as well.)

The closest analog we have today is when one separates the left and right hemisphere of the brain, and that is a crude, fixed, and brutal methodology for such experiments, so it's only done as a way to treat people whose health it may improve, and is irreversible.
Have you tried this with your own stuff? Books on your bookshelves you haven't opened in 10-15-20-30 years?

It is entirely true for Thinkpads. In fact I wasn’t even really aware of their consumer line. All of what I mentioned occurred on Thinkpads.

And maybe spyware is a standard industry practice like you said. In fact, I’d agree that’s very true. But this is a MacBook thread and I’ve yet to see such a practice on Apple laptops.
Furin --> A protein. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furin

Spike protein --> the proteins on the surface of a virus used to attach onto or enter a host cell. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peplomer

RRAR --> This is a group of amino acids: Arginine Arginine Alanine Arginine. Here is the list of abbreviations: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Class/MLACourse/Modules/MolBioR...

For a discussion of cleavage --> https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/endoproteolytic

For a discussion of it relevant to another virus --> https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC103966/

Mucin --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucin

O-Glycosylation --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-linked_glycosylation

So this is a discussion of the differences in how these viruses uses their respective spike proteins to trigger endoproteolytic cleavage in the host cell. Specifically, what the impact of different positionings of their amino acids is.

For example, the idea "Furin-sensitive motif" means that there is a section of the spike protein which contains the amino acids described (RRAR), which is sensitive to the protein Furin in host cells.

About a year ago, I switched from a Windows 10 quad-core Xeon system to an iMac Pro. The single greatest performance enhancement, among many, is the speed and accuracy of the macOS search.
Considering the huge amount of features, and the LOC added for type definitions etc (when compared to regular JS) it isn't that surprising.
There are so many legit, ethical behavioral geneticists in this world, and of course wsj had to go and publish Charles Murray.

Even if they were, I don't see the general problem in this instance. If a staff member disagrees with a President so vehemently that they're willing to participate in an impeachment then there's little reason to assume that they're going to simply return to work and do as instructed from then on. Even if they operated entirely in good faith, nobody in politics just says "Well schucks, I guess my gut was wrong on this one. My bad."
Interesting, I had a much easier time seeing the actual motion instead of the illusion in black and white over colored.
Does anybody here have a Thelio? I'm curious as to whether they got the fan-noise thing sorted out.
Children's cartoons on TV aren't usually great, but at least there's a curation process. There's only so much airtime, so we're only going to spend a minute asking us to tune in next week. Not 20% of the time asking us to subscribe and like amd follow. FCC enforcement makes it unlikely that truly awful stuff gets mixed in.
I specced out the closest I could to my recent 3970x build. It was ~$1500 more through System76.

At my current bill rate, I am barely better off financially for having built on my own. Had any hardware been defective, or if I had to troubleshoot the first boot, then I would have been better off buying.

I imagine anyone who can justify a machine like this for their work will likely be in the same ballpark for bill rate (or higher).

I chose to build because I enjoy it. I'm sure plenty of others wouldn't enjoy it, and so would be much better off purchasing.
You're not going to invite Yahoo? :(
Or you could go with a substance that both stops radiation AND extracts the energy, used in every nuclear reactor: water. It's not quite as good as lead but pretty good, and it will heat up while stopping the radiation, then conveniently through convection can transport itself to a point where the energy can get extracted.
I've used a variety of languages, plain SQL + some bash scripting, nodejs, python, C++, C and C#.NET to name some. Hell, I've even used bash scripts with some sed/awk/grep etc to get it done but that isn't ideal most of the time.

The factors I'd consider when picking a language:

1. Datasource

2. Destination datasource

3. Number and type of translations

4. Source language that created the dataset (typically more relevant if you are pulling flat files or custom data structures, but always on the radar).

5. Datasize both in terms of storage size and number of records/transactions.

6. Data location, are my source and destination co-located or across the state, country or world from each other?

7. Data growth, do I need to keep running this process to keep up or is it a one and done ??

In general the lower the level language the longer it will take to code but it generally leads to more performant code. I usually opt for the easiest solution first and then work from there because as you are trying the easy one you'll find challenges which might push your decision a specific way. Today, I'd also look at Rust if I was doing a large dataset or working with binary data or I required more performance. I'd generally avoid PHP for this as it really isn't the right match, but if I had a small dataset and the creation was done via PHP I'd probably be tempted to just knock it out in PHP and be done (if it wasn't going to be around long).

Also, in the last 10 years or so when I do these types of projects I almost always use a mediator cache/queue like Redis or memcached + a queue etc. This gives me quick common lookups as well as I can process data in steps through the queue, survive failures and separate the code into clean sections which is nice for a lot of reasons.

I just wrote all that and didn't really answer your question with a direct answer, but that is because I don't think there is one correct or simple answer. I'd default to the easiest and work your way to the most complex based upon at least these factors, although many others exist.

There are tools that exist to do a lot of this but usually they are database focused. So if you are dealing with zip and text files etc it is hard to find COTS software to do it cleanly.
The big difference between this and flu is that there is no effective drug and vaccine. Some people react mildly to the virus, some people's immune system seems to compromised by the virus quickly. It also seems to have long incubation periods and high infection rate. In a city as dense as China, it would spread quick from person to person. So the only effective way to reduce infection is to quarantine people. Not allow them to gather around. Flu is actually affects a lot of people too. It just not a "massive event" because we dont try to contain it. It would take a similar measure to try to contain flu if there is no flu vaccine

I can't comment on accessibility or responsiveness or what have you, but this is a wonderful display. Strong, clear delineations without being too bright or garish, and densely packs a bunch of information together without losing clarity or concision. Love it.
If you watch the films, you can see this really started in Return. I'm sure the first two sold a lot of merch, but the films weren't designed around it.
The mic doesn't work yet, actually an array of MEMS mics and needs firmware for an onboard DSP. The trackpad driver isn't yet in the tree and needs to be built separately. Overall it provides a decent experience for someone with a bit of skill.
Well,

I've worked on some defense projects and navigation software for billion-dollar hardware. While at Microsoft I also worked on two system services that shipped with Windows 10.

Even I expect a certain amount of privacy when working on my personal workstations. Some of my work (team-effort intellectual property) produced while living in New York was sold to Microsoft for 24 million dollars around 2012.

Seems to me that it would make research and development uncomfortable for start-ups. Imagine having the ability to query all of the search terms performed on workstations for any R&D group in the world.
I think about this every time I used one of these machines... isn't it in the businesses best interest to get people through as fast as possible? I have the same experience at grocery stores and convenience stores, I'm always amazed at how slow the machines are with such seemingly simple tasks.
This whole thing has brought out my conspiratorial side...I don’t know what to believe anymore but I feel like we’re in a tip of the iceberg situation here. Hope I’m wrong.
If someone needs it for work they would be crazy to build it themselves. This is for companies to buy for employees.
> A simple example of this is the ridiculous concentration of tech and aerospace companies inside of a zone that requires almost everyone to use the 405 freeway.

That's a reason why mass transit in LA doesn't work now, not how it came to be that way.

You seemed to have stopped reading before I literally said the current problem was zoning and building (aka urban planning). I lived in LA myself and have felt the length of a trip taking the expo line all the way in/out and how it isn't a viable commute. The sprawl of LA renders the bus system nearly useless as well.

> Sorry, this is false. Los Angeles simply didn't evolve to favor public transportation in the way a lot of European cities have.
> So, no, car companies have nothing whatsoever to do with it. It's about urban planning and design.

Urban planning doesn't exist in isolation, it is shaped by those in power at the time, in every city. The motor industry absolutely was a power player that had a vested interest in pushing urban planning towards a vision of a city that meant cars coming in from suburbs instead of dense urban areas where public transit would actually be effective. LA is not alone in this within the US. Of course they weren't the only factor, a good example being white flight hitting cities pretty hard as well. But to say the car industry was not involved is 100% false.

Not really. My test is my handle “geuis”. It’s always autocorrected to “genius”. Google and Bing at least have the “did you mean geuis” link. Lycos doesn’t.
...And we're writing about this on an internet that was developed by privately funded defense researchers and private universities. You can use this internet to get driving directions via privately funded geolocation satellites.
Nobody builds a system like that with only 16 gigs of RAM and only 256G storage.

Plus you need a quality motherboard, case, power supply, water cooling. Add another $1200.
Which water block are you currently using?

There was a design issue with the one EKWB original had, so they're giving out coupons to people who bought them. I found out when I went to look up whether or not the old one would still work with my new 3960X.

(Turns out the answer is: Yes, but only if I limit the max power a bit. Possibly that wouldn't be an issue if I'd ever gotten around to installing the second radiator, but cooling is an issue. Still get 4.3 though.)

Ehhhh. This is pretty corporate sounding.

It speaks nothing of leadership, nothing of creating a high performing team. Of building trust, developing systems...of creating a culture where shipping is celebrated.

YMMV - if my manager was like this (or if I played this type of manager to my team) morale would go to shit and work would feel like mindless checking of boxes.
I have a stupid question (well, not to me because I don't know the answer): isn't desalination tech fundamentally similar to alcohol distillation? I know that's energy intensive too, I'm just curious, because I know a little about alcohol distillation and an wondering if the concepts are transferable.
It seems to be using Google Analytics and Google fonts...
An excellent example of how expertise and reasoning ability in one domain does not necessarily transfer to another.

Given that all that high-level control flow is rewritten into gotos anyway, why would that make a difference in general, or specifically for 6502?
>However, unknown to any of us, it turns out that PEXT is extremely slow on AMD Zen and Zen 2 architectures.

Is it because of some patents? Anyone knows?
Well, yes, they obviously can as in could, as could any other OS.

This incident doesn't actually show any local files being sent to MS, however. Online search can be disable with a registry entry, which proves that the online service is not necessary for searching local files. It's far more likely that a connection error for the bing search is just triggering some bug that then prevents local results from being shown.
is there a principle that a list will always list a bogus principle ?
This is one of the most ridiculous comments I've ever read on HN. There are at least a dozen things to address there, but, for one, going by this and the rest of your post history, it seems that smart people are only smart when they believe things you believe (i.e. mysticism over materialism).

If you can downgrade back to El Capitan (just take care that there haven't been security updates for 4 years now), you'll probably find it completely useable. Sierra and later made my MBP from 2010 go from my primary workstation to being a pretty aluminum doorstop.
I didn't do that on any of the services.
Solar hot water heaters are currently the solution to that problem. They end up reducing a homes winter energy needs dramatically without the need for fossil fuels at very low costs.

It's brilliant. And the front-end code, though not at all complicated, is clean and easy to understand. I can't speak for code quality, though.

NIST published an update to their About page for time.gov mid-week (https://www.nist.gov/pml/time-and-frequency-division/about-t... ); the only reason I know it was updated today or might've been late last night is because I used the old time.gov to set a watch the day before, and when I opened the tab today, the clock read:

aN:aN:aN

The nice part is that save for the custom web analytics code from digitalgov.gov as well as jquery, it's not minimized.
Under UTC time in lower right corner it says 'your device is off by 0.403 seconds'. This is on my android cell phone and is surprising.. wonder where the offset is coming from.

I can't believe you'd suggest something as rediculous as users wanting a unified search bar that just gives them what they want regardless of context. History has shown time and time again that users like diversity and would prefer a solution that they can tailor together in a piecemeal fashion after trying all their options.
If that's all it is, I really don't think it tells us anything about the developer's opinions on homebrew/modding/emulation.
The books are much better than the movie, but it's not exactly hard sci-fi. They predate the big surge in apocalyptic YA and are much better than they deserve to be. They're not less plausible than "Cities in Flight" or "Marooned in Real-time" or anything with warp drives and laser pistols.
Get a dedicated NTP client app to be certain of your UTC offset. While NIST won’t have messed up their NTP implementation, I don’t trust web browsers to handle time-sensitive things.
I have to give you some credit for the load time!
Can't say I ran into this particular bug, but I tend not to trust the search on Windows much anyway. I myself have implemented better text/prefix matching and ranking using a very simple SQLite database schema, on a far larger dataset than 'the local machine', yet Microsoft repeatedly fail at a task which should succumb easily even to brute-force approaches.

They don't get to claim that it's a harder problem than indexing a hard disk without first explaining why they think they should retain the use of their fingers for continuing to send search terms over a network after I, as the owner of the hardware and 'owner' of the OS instance have made a concerted effort to turn that shit off.
But if they're cheap and easy, and a person could make a dozen, that changes things a bit. But still, I think we're still talking about short term survival only. If that's your environment, the local flora & fauna are unlikely to be prolific enough to fill other needs without extensive effort. Unless, you know, you've got a Still suit and can call giant worms and stuff.

Ask HN: What are good solo developer blogs that you enjoy reading?
Hey guys, I like to read blog bosts about developers that run some kind of project (rentable or not) and usually are pretty open about its development and how things are going.

However, it's really hard to find some of those, unless you found those somewhere. Hacker Newsletter today had a pretty good article https://mtlynch.io/solo-developer-year-2/

I'm mostly looking for something similar since this kind of blog post can give some good insights.
