Mantainability is a plus. But the big feature would be not worrying about your car getting remotely bricked for some arbitrary reason, or losing some essential function because your OEM's servers are down.

If a company is capable of constantly monitoring your machine, and updating it OTA, I don't doubt that their liability with respect to whatever you do to your car increases significantly.

Depending on how you like to drive, and where you drive, not fighting the smart driver 'assist' features of vehicles could be a feature as well. I read a commenter on HN some time ago about GPS-assisted headlamps preventing them from providing much needed illumination to something (wrecked vehicle, iirc) off the side of the road.

Personally, I've played enough Assassin's Creed and GTA to know I wouldn't trust a smart system to predict my intent in a life/death scenario.
Isn’t iPadOS a tiling window manager?
Seems to be overfitting to statistical regularities in the dataset, or in any
case it completely ignores the facts and rules you give it and draws the
answer from who knows where:

Metals ermuf electricity.
Insulators do not ermuf electricity.
If something is made of gudranga then it is metal.
Nails are made of gudranga.

Nails conduct electricity.

ROVER prediction:

Nails conduct electricity. True (confidence = 0.99)

Yes, it can tell that nails ermuf electircity:

ROVER prediction:

Nails ermuf electricity. True (confidence = 0.99)

However, it also thinks that nails gudranga electricity:

ROVER prediction:

Nails gudranga electricity. True (confidence = 0.99)

So in short, it is very determined to find that Nails Y electricity, for
whatever Y, whether Y is something that relates nails to electricty or not.

The main advantage I see is that the markdown diagram is understandable in plaintext. That's quite a powerful idea because you don't need to understand any intermediate language. Graphviz and mermaid are interpretable, but not in an immediately visual way.

I would be interested in a solution that can take graphviz files and output markdown-friendly diagrams, which can then be compiled back into vector diagrams.

I don't believe that restrictions on private investments make sense. If anything, they perpetuate the "rich get richer, poor get poorer" problem. Unaccredited investors are kept out of great potential wealth creation. The problem is not bad investments, it's fraudulent ones. Fraud is still illegal even if you kill the accredited investors restrictions.
> have pre-defined layouts, which (for me at-least) create more confusion than value.

The reason (at least for AwesomeWM, but DWM too) we use pre-defined layouts is because you can (and should) pass your own functions for each tag/workflow. This way you don't have to manage the layouts manually.

Once you add the custom business logic, it becomes very predictable. Plus, AwesomeWM is modular, so if you want i3 style layouts, you can just do it (https://elv13.github.io/client_tiling/dynamite.html , by me). Of course not all users want/have_the_time to optimize their workflow. Those people should probably stick with i3. AwesomeWM is all about customization/workflow_optimization, that's time consuming, but you have a good ROI.
Probably because they make enough extra money investing in public markets with less hassle and much more liquidity. Why even bother with private investments? 90% of them are going to zero.
I have a large 4K monitor when I'm my desk in the office, a smaller 1920x440 at home, and just the (Retina) laptop screen when I'm elsewhere.

My sense is that the 4K monitor is a bit nicer than the 1920x440, but nowhere near enough nicer for me to have ever felt motivated to replace the 10 year old monitor I already have at home. The real difference is between 2 monitors vs just the one.

I also briefly had a 15" laptop with a 4K monitor, and UGH NO CRANK THAT RESOLUTION DOWN RIGHT NOW. My take-away: Ignore the marketing fluff that focuses overmuch on resolutions; the resolution is not an end in and of itself. Pick a screen size, and then pick a resolution that gives you an appropriate DPI for that size.
This law is actively biting me in the ass right now as we speak ;)

You're not reaping the benefits of high pixel density at that size. It's a shame 5K 27" monitors aren't more prevalent. That perfect 2x pixel density increase from 1440p is incredibly sharp.
Yes, I suspect Google has a pretty good idea of what IPs are in botnets. I used to work on detecting fraud traffic at an adtech startup and the impressions we got through Google tended not to include the botnets I could identify coming through other ad networks. (Granted, this was near the beginning of last decade and it's a constantly-evolving cat-and-mouse game.)
I'm using i3 for a long time, the only feature I'm really missing is `bindsym j [class="google-chrome"] xdotool key Down` so I can make vi like key binding for every program that I use.
Does anyone know how I would find a graphics card or set of graphics cards for Ubuntu which supported 5 monitors well, one being 4k?

I also don't want NVidia proprietary drivers due to bugs. They confuse something with monitors versus screens which breaks a lot of things. Nouveau works fine. Haven't tried AMD but I assume it's fine too.
That doesn’t sound right.

IIRC, Freesync will only ever work over DP because it relies on features that the HDMI protocol doesn't/won't ever have.

Also, it's very interesting that things are so different in France with regard to display cables. I would've assumed that, since it's mostly the same manufacturers making everything around the world, they'd have more or less standard models across regions.
If we are the first sentient beings in the universe, they really are first world problems.
Honestly that might be why the adapter is relatively cheap.

A lot of other solutions especially if you need single cable operation and >65W or especially 96W charging for the 16” MacBook Pro are active hubs that cost well over $100.

But those are all cheaper and more flexible and cross platform than buying the 27” UltraFine display. My eyes can’t tell the difference between the UltraFine and the 4K 27” LG display that cost me $290.
Are these the same psychological evaluations that psychiatrists do to determine if somebody can be involuntarily committed? Because that sounds like an even bigger problem than this being abused in the criminal justice system. At least in the latter you tend to have rights afforded to you, whereas in the case of the former in some places they can literally even bar you from speaking to an attorney.
So I'm a long time awesomewm user (5+ years) and when I started shopping around for a wm I tried both awesome and i3 (and another I don't recall the name). Awesome was easier to get started with and all the Lua code is easy to understand and use.

However, could someone who used both elaborate on the differences? Would I gain anything from trying to migrate to i3 instead?

At my point of view, only the community size is the difference, but that hasn't bothered me too much as awesome for most part just simply works.
They're probably suggesting to get a bigger monitor at the same time. You can have somewhat higher DPI and smoother text, and more real estate.

If you're used to 24" 1080P, going to 32" 4K gets you 1.5x the DPI and 1.77x the screen area. For what's now a $300 monitor, that is a pretty significant improvement overall.

The DPI means my characters go from 9x18 pixels to 13x27, which is a big difference in text rendering fidelity and just feels a little nicer. And the additional screen real estate speaks for itself.

> Apple USB-C Multiport adapter simply refuses 60Hz 4K

Don't know if it's the case for you: the older version of the adapter was limited to 30Hz @ 4K. Only the latest version supports 60Hz @ 4K.

I have both and unfortunately they look very similar. Only the fineprint gives a clue which is the newer version.

When I ran a brick and mortar business, we ran Google Ads to get bookings, and we could always tell when our ads weren't running, met their budget, or were not running for some reason because our bookings would effectively drop to zero since 2 other companies had better organic SEO than us.

THEN, one of our other competitors started outspending us a bit in Adwords. It hurt, but wasn't the end of the world because we could afford to spend just a little more.

However, it seems that as soon as we went over a certain amount, our budgets started getting exceeded by about 10am in the morning.

But our competitors ads kept going.

We contacted Google to find out what was going on. None of these clicks were even resulting in business, contacts, nothing. So we assumed the worst, our competitor was having someone click all our ads.

This process started the downward spiral for our business. Not being able to stay live in Adwords long enough to get any new business was devastating and I sure as heck wasn't going to participate in clicking on my competitors ads because that's fraud as far as I know. SO, we just suffered and I couldn't get any support from Google.

In other news, the business has been closed for a year and Bing still lists it as open with photos, etc. We've tried marking it closed OVER AND OVER again and nothing is changing. We finally got on the phone to them and they actually said they can't change the search results. It's irritating to see a year old business open on Bing that's closed everywhere else.
I work on Metabase and wanted to say congrats on putting all this together. Excited to see more open source options for BI.

Just as a point of fact - that blog post you linked to is 3.5 years old at this point.

Even at that time we had implicit joins (for things like top grossing countries if you had an FK in your transactions back to a table w/ the country field).

We've had joins in our notebook mode for a while now (https://www.metabase.com/docs/latest/users-guide/custom-ques...)
The meaning of what the quote is saying is clear. It is also clear how the logical reasoning is supposed to be. My - admittedly pedantic - point is that the choice of words is incorrect.
I've been using i3-wm for many years and am a big fan. It's great to be able to switch between workspaces so quickly and get such an efficient use of screen "real estate".

Right, you're supposed to test to the worst case and you get to define "worst case." Cheating would be as simple as defining a favorable "worst case."

Before the tin-foil crowd calls regulators stupid, I'd like to point out that in the absence of cheating this allows hardware engineers to do a better job & design a system that is robust to software shenanigans. That's a nice thing. Maybe we cannot have nice things, but if so, let's prove it rather than presuppose it.

I'd estimate the likelihood of cheating by looking to see if people are choosing phones on the basis of EIRP the way they choose cars based on MPG. I don't see that happening, so I estimate that the likelihood of cheating is low, and would vote to keep the cooperative model around.
And comments.
Here's a link to the paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.05867

Shortened Abstract: "AI has long pursued the goal of having systems reason over explicitly provided knowledge, but building suitable representations has proved challenging. Here we explore whether transformers can similarly learn to reason (or emulate reasoning), but using rules expressed in language, thus bypassing a formal representation. We provide the first demonstration that this is possible, and characterize the extent of this capability. To do this, we use a collection of synthetic datasets that test increasing levels of reasoning complexity (number of rules, presence of negation, and depth of chaining). We find transformers appear to learn rule-based reasoning with high (99%) accuracy on these datasets, and in a way that generalizes to test data requiring substantially deeper chaining than in the training data (95%+ scores). We also demonstrate that the models transfer well to two hand-authored rulebases, and to rulebases paraphrased into more natural language. "

The performance numbers are pretty impressive IMO. But learning from synthetic datasets is pretty perilous, hard to say if it'll generalize well. Kudos to them for putting out a live demo.

I've been considering trying out a tiling window manager. I'm curious what people feel they gain using a tiling window manager versus something like Windows/Gnome's screen splitting features. Is it being able to arrange more windows on the screen than just side-by-side windows? Is it keyboard shortcut efficiencies? Is it just cool?
I dunno if consuming many types of garbage data is going to help you zero in on the truth
At work my primary monitor is 4K @32”. At home my primary monitor is 2650x1600 @30”.

Though the 4K monitor is sharper, specifically for the task of writing code, I actually prefer my home monitor.
That would make sense, I bought mine in 2016 when it was “discounted” to make us feel less bad about losing ports.
> I often end up wrapping class members in std::optional to arrange for one

That's not going to help you unless you explicitly unset the optional in your move constructor. std::optional's move constructor doesn't unset the argument (see #3 in https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/optional/optional).

But if you have to implement your own constructors to emplace/unset the optionals, you can just have a sentinel state for your whole object.
For my aging eyes, 4K 32” is the sweet spot. They’re cheap too (you can get one for $380.)

I don’t use the full screen for editing (it’s too wide for that), but the edit window is in the middle and stuff that happens in the background (compiling etc.) sits in the virtual background, showing up in the border around the wait window. So I see immediately when things have stopped scrolling.

After using this configuration at work, I upgraded all my home setups as well.
California, about an hour outside of SF.

The quality of internet service falls off precipitously as you leave urban city limits.

It's better than it could be - when we decided to move "to the country", we almost bought a property where the only internet option was HughesNet. From all reports, HughesNet is incredibly expensive and barely usable. A big plus for the place we landed is that we can get "rural wireless broadband" - basically a point-to-point wifi signal bounced off of a solar-powered relay on a hill, to a set of towers on a faraway ridge, run by a folksy two-man ISP. It's expensive, unreliable, and slow compared to what I left in SF. But it's better than HughesNet and there's no data cap.

I don't know what to expect from Starlink, but I'm hopeful. Even if it's just a reliable 10Mbit connection I'll be ecstatic.
Dammit. I read that 3 times before commenting and still missed that point of emphasis. Touché
I wonder why that is, but I never understood the appeal of gaps. It's wasted space.

Most airlines will end up using it to stream telemetry as a backup and for areas where primary telemetry communication channels aren't viable. IIRC, it doesn't work near the poles but for everywhere else it would be good for knowing the last position when a flight vanishes.

Thanks for putting so much thought into your responses!)

That last line in the second paragraph made it click for me, thank you! At first I was under the impression they were funded after the 6 MVPs, but it makes sense that they were funded before/during that! With that bit of context, "betting on the founders" in this case makes much more sense to me.

Yes :)

That's the beauty of it: time is just a number (of seconds since 1 January 1970).

Integer, since it's an integer number of seconds.

> And is it seconds since epoch or milliseconds since epoch?

Unix time is always seconds.

>Even Microsoft switched from a tiling WM from Windows 2.0 on wards and has stuck to it

Yet they've been steadily adding tiling features since Win7.

Don't believe me? Grab any window in Win10 and drag to any of the corners.
AMD used to have special "Eyefinity" series cards which supported up to 6 displays (as in a single card / GPU would have up to 6 display controllers).

Though I don't know if that's still a thing, or whether they were well supported on linux, or how well they deal / dealt displays of different resolution. Also I'm pretty sure it only worked over native DisplayPort, so you'd need active adapters to plug in non-DP displays.
It's not a matter of the number of planes, it's a matter of not wanting to create more problems than you solve. The risk of that is much higher when trying to rewire a plane than when replacing an airbag in a car.
> They do though; they have incredibly wide discretion and things like insider trading effectively exist only via SEC regulation.

No, insider trading is the subject of laws passed by Congress; at a minimum, the Insider Trading Sanctions Act of 1984 and Insider Trading and Securities Exchange Act of 1988. And those laws are where the SEC enforcement powers over insider trading come from.
I don't understand the authors reasoning. Similar to him, my eyes are bad and I don't profit from super high resolution at all. It is an unnessary burden to scale up everything. Having bought just a low Res display would be the simpler solution.

Of course there are reasons for HiRes also in desktop. The font display is amazing (try a magnifier on an IPad, you cannot see any pixel). But I don't work with a magnifier...
I don't know about other tiling WMs, but i3 does let you stack windows. In the default config, super-s makes a vertical stack and super-t makes a tabbed stack.

Most of the time it's easier to keep different windows in different workspaces though. My first five workspaces are always

1. Browser

2. Browser

3. Code

4. Messaging apps (in a vertical stack)

5. Terminals

Pressing the number for the workspace where you keep the window you want is way easier on the eyes and brain then hitting alt tab and examining the pop-up panel to see how many more times you have to hit it.
"Dahl expresses some of these darker experiences in his writings, which is also marked by his hatred of cruelty and corporal punishment."

It's interesting that in his children's books it seems he still believes in moral reformation through cruelty and corporal punishment, as he frequently has the underdog do cruel things under the guise of knocking the other person down a notch, or otherwise cowing them into improvement. He doesn't just present it as justice or revenge, but as a kind of education, and specifically it's okay if the victim doesn't understand why they are being punished or that it is punishment at all. (I'm thinking of Matilda, The Twits, George's Marvellous Medicine, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the BFG, and probably others)

I suppose it's no surprise that even when you hate your upbringing, it still becomes part of you and your moral vision of the world.
The "only if specifically requested" is commonplace and requesting evidence is a routine part of any case. I'm all in favor of "automatic" discovery in criminal matters—I don't believe the prosecution should have an information advantage—but the fact that it wasn't previously required by law isn't evidence that it was broadly inadequate.

Same goes for the deadlines. Sure, the law didn't set a specific timeline—but that's not evidence that prosecutors routinely "[dropped] 30 pages off in front of the defense 20 minutes before the trial [began]."
IRL, if another gang threatens me, I can go to the first I paid protection for, and usually they try to convince the other gang that, no, they should not do that.

There is no such thing online.
It depends on whether they're doing a 506(b) or a 506(c) offering. The difference being that the latter can be publicly advertised, whereas the former doesn't allow any public solicitation of investments.

In the former case, you can take people at their words (they just declare that they are, and how they are an accredited investor in a statement).

In the latter case, you must verify via a statement from a licensed professional (e.g. their CPA) or via their bank.
I just got a 32" 4k monitor. Works nicely on my Asus Zenbook UX430UA running Ubuntu 18

The sales guy kept trying to sell me an HDMI cable, but I knew I could only do 30 Hz. Had to ask several times for USB type C to displayport

My next system will have thunderbolt and I'd like to run a 27" monitor at 5k
It is strange to me that this article doesn't question the idea that Boeing and the FAA did not know before that the old wiring didn't meet current standards.

Of course they knew.

But it also seems that the old wiring design has been verified by the test of time and they have data showing the crashes weren't related to it.

So I think that ripping out all of the wiring on the planes and rushing to replace it with a new system, then rushing to test that new system, is the surest way to increase the likelihood of another system failure and possibly even kill off the Boeing brand if that happens.

> I can’t for the life of me figure out why the people who make displays with built in power supplies for USB-C charging didn’t just default it on the 100W maximum that the spec allows

I asked myself the same question, and I guess it is either one of the following:

a) 65W is what the reasonably priced chipsets available on the market support, and it would take a lot of costly auxiliary parts to support 100W

b) its a heat management problem
