Love Douglas Adams as well.

I've always seen Vonnegut as using Satire as a veil for optimism. He makes the world so absurd and yet there is still room for optimism.

Adams always seemed to have a bit more British cynicism/reality to me. I enjoy him a lot too.
Well to be clear I'm not saying we should just take what is directly in the bible and lift and shift it, there would obviously be substantial differences between the implementation now and then. As for the when I would say a regular calander cycle, every 50 years or so. Again this is more of the kernel of an idea than a fleshed out plan.

> My issue with plastic for construction of bodies for higher-end products (be it synths, headphones, computers, etc.) is that they are... Soft, they get scratched easily (most of them at least, I know a few types that are scratch-resistant), they show wear and tear in a much more unpleasant way than metal, glass or wood.

Most of the visible metal bits in any consumer electronic will be aluminum, which is notoriously soft (softer than gold) and scratches easily. Likewise, most any product made of wood (moving beyond electronics now) will be made of a wood that's soft enough to scratch easily. I'm not convinced that scratch-resistance is the metric for instinctively classifying the cheapness of a material.
I don’t disagree with what you just said however odds of discovering such a model are pretty low is irrelevant when dealing with abstract computers. Further, suggesting real world physics is unlikely to work isn’t a proof even if I happen to agree.

In the end even if we had a physical machine to produce BB(n) that would not mean it was computable using a Touring machine. Their unrelated concepts.

PS: Looks like auto corrupt strikes again, I really stopped caring at this point.
I have a similar experience with T4xx laptops. I think most likely answer is every engineer at Red Hat is given a thinkpad T or P series so I figure plenty of them contributed fixes for sleep, power, etc. Dell obviously has Linux certified laptops so I'm sure it's a similar story.
Aside from identifying your audience, determining what distinguishes the side project from competing or similar apps, turning those distinctions into decent sounding value propositions & getting those out in front of your potential users... getting a spot on HN's front page is always a good start :-) (but it helps if you have all the other work done first so the visitors understand what the app does when you get the resulting traffic)

You could also try and find people whose input/feedback would be helpful to the project & beg them to try the app...this is usually only effective if you've earned their trust by engaging with them for a while...so it helps to be active with your potential customers ahead of time)

> The thing that seems crazy to me is how much time alone increases with age.

I think your focus on construction is looking at a symptom - this is an unintended consequence of the nuclear family emphasis; the construction changed to support it.
Close to downtown Seattle (Ballard). Even on the bus it isn't a thing (maybe its our climate?).
If that were true then decreasing fuel efficiency would increase economic activity. It obviously doesn't.
No. Linux drivers are supposed to implement runtime_pm callbacks. These are called based on the usage counter of those devices. ACPI is an Intel/microsoft standard for power state definition with spotty compliance. How and when you put those devices into whatever power state, ACPI or not is dictated by those callbacks. Bugs seem to most often occur when you turn off something when it is still being used cuz someone failed to claim it or released it too soon. Also asic bugs in their definitions of their power states.
For what it's worth, macOS (at least on Intel) is quickly catching up.

I've never had as many sleep problems on my Thinkpad running Ubuntu many years ago as I'm seeing on my fairly recent Intel MBP.
This tracks well with my experience also. I was disappointed, for the most part, the several graduate CS courses for this reason.

The code doesn't identify the user as an individual, but it does inform Brave when its users visit particular third party websites (if they use its URL bar autocomplete), much like many supposedly anonymised analytics services privacy-conscious users often prefer to block.

And the actual discussion subject I raised isn't the horrors of affiliate links and affiliates accessing metadata on trends in their user base's access to certain third party websites so much as Brave's history of "mistakes". The BAT might require considerably more storage of personal data, but at least its existence isn't a secret

Yeah, it is actually weird how these stories are getting written. By any sensible standard slack was insane success. Most founders dream about reaching market value of 1bln. Of course it would be cool to be worth 30bln and have control as well, but tbh many founders are insanely happy if they can get exit even for 30mln.
Provide evidence that were at any risk of WW3. In the U.S. Those bombs are exclusively used for proxy wars and are made in significant abundance to continue that "war". They're not for any other purpose. If your intent is actual defense, sure, but we don't have that reason.

> Sleep and hibernate have nothing to do with drivers.

That sounds like a brave statement to me.

Without knowing many details I believe that drivers can block the system from hibernating when they don't cooperate correctly.

I am absolutely sure during wakeup the driver needs to cooperate correctly. There are numerous cases that some device does no longer work correctly after wakeup. I doubt that ACPI alone can be blamed for all of the issues, even if I don't like the close source nature of ACPI.

Is there any open source approach to ACPI? Not that I'd expect to work better right away. But you know whom to blame. In the worst case yourself for not starting to fix it.
Airbnb has more rooms, as rafiki6 said, but without the disadvantage of having to own all those rooms. And maintain them. And pay taxes on them, and mortgages.

I also have the Audeze Mobius headset and I pair it with my Apple TV to watch movies, and it's a really great experience..

I've had these for 2+ years and I tell people "you forget that you're wearing headphones" and that's exactly how Gruber describes it too..

So I'm also really surprised to hear that the spatial/positional stuff on Apple's headphones only works when paired with a compatible device, and it's just phones and tablets.

That's... lame.
Likely the most valuable parts are any engines that were mounted. (Have they mounted the engines?) My guess is that if they have a current surplus of engines, they'll try a fix and attempt to get data out of sn9, even if success chance is low. If they have more pressure vessels than engines for those pressure vessels, then I doubt sn9 will fly.

Either way, one of the larger goals of these early prototypes is to iterate on how to make the starship quickly and inexpensively, so I doubt it's a total waste even if it doesn't fly.
Is it obscene to buy a thousand dollar laptop when 500 dollar laptops are fine for most users? $500 for headphones seems like a very arbitrary standard for what is excessive. A billion people live on a dollar a day. They would consider spending $50 -- or even $15 -- on a restaurant meal to be obscene. It's all relative.
> It's surprising to hear you mention it.

Me specifically or in general?

Anyway, for a Multimedia Information Retrieval course I chose to do my term project on training a neural network with synthetic data. In particular I modded Minecraft such that when I press a button it saves two screenshots: one regular and one where the game renders a depth map instead. I used this to generate ~1000 samples with perfectly accurate depth maps. Because of the mods, texture pack and world I used the data was somewhat realistic: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Zai51.jpg https://i.stack.imgur.com/eamMR.png

This data was then used to train a neural network to predict the depth map of unseen images. It was relatively successful, but requires more data and more research, I only had so much time for a term paper.

That's an interesting comment, because it really calls attention to how us nerds often perceive things differently from how the rest of the world does. I am guessing that most consumers would not recognize something that just used vanilla AOSP as an Android phone. Google's closed-source add-ons are a huge part of what people think of when they think, "Android."

> I don't think that's what being advocated for. What specialists are good at is providing accurate information in their specialty. Often different specialists will disagree.

This is an interesting point insofar as the second and third sentence seem to contradict each other. Am I over-simplifying?

A translation of what I expressed above is that common people have common sense and that common sense inoculates us from misinformation. It’s an imperfect response, but effective.

What Facebook is and does, at least in terms of spreading misinformation, is not new. Newspapers were that for a long, long time and, arguably still.
AAA aren't cheap. More importantly, they are annoying to replace all the time.

$79 every few years on a $500 set of headphones sounds plausible, the battery alone would probably be $40-$50 retail anyways; I'm just getting someone at an Apple store to replace it for me.

More concerning is that a set of new ear muffs costs $69. I've already replaced the ones on my QuietComforts two times ($20 using clones on Amazon), so that is going to add up a bit.
In the UK do you just have one centralized medical record that all your providers can access? That seems..not ideal.
I think you greatly overestimate population growth rates in the past here. A world where 4 successful sons was the norm has population doubling every decade or so, no society has done that. A world with just 2 has doubling every 25 years, and this was extremely unusual in the pre-industrial world. A few places in the new world (like Quebec) managed this for a while, and it was an astonishing phenomenon to people (like Malthus) who saw the numbers.

Most places were much closer to equilibrium, with about the same number of people farming a given district from one generation to the next. Something more like 3 adult children, one of whom never has a family, is what you should imagine. And then it's easy to picture multigenerational households being common. As they were, in many (but not all) parts of the world.
Not that I think that the price is right for these Apple headphones, but at $550 they are not on the high end. Just a quick search turns up these Sennheisers that are $1400 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-800-Reference-Headphone...

Yes, iOS devices will tend to delay the video when playing audio over BT. They also recently issued an update to the HomePod that allows it to do low-latency audio (so you can use it with an AppleTV playing/streaming games), but I think that's using their own proprietary streaming (AirPlay 2) over WiFi, not BT (details on the feature have been scarce and it's relatively new).

Interestingly, the low-latency audio breaks apps that provide their own video player (Twitch & YouTube), since they aren't aware of the low latency features and they try to compensate for a system feature on their own.
My MBP doesn't sleep correctly anymore after I replaced the SSD.

Either the battery is empty when I open it again, or it somehow shut itself down and boots anew with battery intact.

It's nice to see Toyota putting some effort into electric car tech at last. They got this early lead with hybrid tech leading to the Prius, did some plug-in hybrids, but never went for it with a mainstream EV. The only pure EVs I saw were limited run versions of the RAV4. Meanwhile they wasted a lot of time on hydrogen, which was never the way forward.

This is obviously marketing disguised as satire, but in the interest of maybe providing some info that's useful to someone in the comments section I'm going to jump in here with a middle-of-the road story. I make ~$500/mo off my side project. It's nice money that I can use to explore more side projects. I'm not going to quit my day job with it. You don't have to make $5k MRR for a side project to be profitable/useful, and you can successfully scale a small idea without pouring 40hrs/wk into it.

Not apriori true at all. Imagine I am a country of one. I have $100 million of cash and export absolutely nothing.

I'm a net importer and yet haven't taken out a single loan.

I noticed their website mentions up to 32 dB attenuation. What does this mean in practice? A set of 3M Peltor X5 earmuffs have only 31 dB NRR, and NRR is a standard metric for ear protection. The Sennheisers don’t look anywhere near as isolating as the 3M muffs. Personally I use the construction earmuffs for drumming.

I have a work macbook. I have a personal XPS. I have an Android phone (because I can flash my own roms).

The chargers that ship with modern devices tend to be USB-C to USB-C (including Apple's own macbook charger).

I have absolutely no desire to fit a lightning cable into my life, and I'm hardly the only person I know who has a macbook and an android phone (about half of my company of 300 falls into the exact same bucket).

I don't typically buy Apple devices because I think they're oppressively locked down, but that's not really something I care that much about for headphones.

Plus, given the whole market for decent bluetooth headphones is ridiculously price inflated anyways, Apple's price here doesn't dissuade me nearly as much as normal.

Basically - I would absolutely consider picking up a Max, but lightning is a serious knock against the product.
