>On the flip side, there was optical SPDIF way back when.

the bitrates is also much lower for SPDIF. According to wikipedia it only supports uncompressed 48khz 20 bit PCM audio, which translates to a bandwidth of 120KB/s. I'm not sure when it was introduced, but wikipedia says USB 1.x was introduced in 1996 and had a bandwidth of up to 1.5 MB/s.
Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds (1841)
"Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is an early study of crowd psychology by Scottish journalist Charles Mackay, first published in 1841 under the title Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions. The book was published in three volumes: "National Delusions", "Peculiar Follies", and "Philosophical Delusions". Mackay was an accomplished teller of stories, though he wrote in a journalistic and somewhat sensational style."

Temperatures in the 40s are not "low temperatures." It has been in the 40s at night in Los Angeles for the past month, and that is in one of the most favorable locations for EVs.

Tesla absolutely should be called out for giving range estimates that require unicorn temperatures. Edmunds testing more accurately reflects real world usage, aka, what a normal person would get if they weren't trying to artificially goose their measurements.
Synology actually has an option in their routers to "Downgrade USB 3.0 device to reduce interference of 2.4G signal" (so I assume downgrading the USB 3.0 port to USB 2.0 speeds would decrease the interference)
Other comments mention that abusing the "zero remaining" buffer could damage the battery. On the one hand that doesn't sound ideal for a range someone may want to use more often, on the other hand the screen issue older Teslas had came with a maximum expected life of only seven years which software updates exaggerated down to three. So you can probably expect the car to fall apart long before the battery does.
Note that they understood the myths to be archetypes, but outright atheism was a charge punishable by death. That's what they got Socrates on.

Also note that they were pretty limited in their tolerance. If people got pissed at you, they wrote your name on a piece of pottery (ostrakon). If enough names were gathered, you were banished -- the root of the word "ostracized".

On the upside, they were very tolerant of transgender and intersex individuals. Note in particular the case of Callo/Callon, who changed their sex and pronouns.
> Not sure what you mean here.

Basically, I was comparing an example where the percentage of male teachers is lower when comparing preschool teachers versus public school teachers in general, like you mentioned the lower percentage of female developers contributing to open source software versus the percentage of female developers throughout the industry.

Even if a male preschool teacher self-reported perceived bias against him, that doesn't necessarily mean that there's general trend of bias throughout the area. Just like a female self reporting bias they perceived for a particular open source project doesn't mean that there's a general of bias in that area.

I've recently come across Latin as I was reading "The Well-Trained Mind" by Susan Wise Bauer. It's a book describing how to provide a "classical education" to kids at home. (I'm homeschooling my two young kids this year and reading everything I can about how to homeschool.)

The author strongly recommends having the kids learn Latin. In case anyone is interested, some resources/curricula for homeschooling Latin she mentions in the book include Prima Latina, Latina Christiana, Song School Latin, Latin for Children, The Big Book of Lively Latin, The Latin Road to English Grammar, and Latin Alive!.

Anyone have experience/thoughts/opinions on teaching their kids Latin? Or even learning Latin as a kid?
According to the article, Visa is looking at using "the cryptocurrency USD Coin" (whatever that is)

So this has nothing to do with bitcoin (except inasmuch as any news article with the word "crypto" in the headline will trigger a bunch of FOMO buyers and drive up the price)
Square is in the payment business. Credit cards are just one method. E.g., Square supports Interact in Canada for a flat fee of $0.10.

> For solo devs working on a closed source codebase, how do you get feedback on design and implementation decisions?

As a solo dev, not getting feedback is the "best" part for me; I work on projects on my own just because of this. I'm the god of my tiny worlds, no one gets to judge them (positively or negatively). I write code as I see and the outcome always pleases me. I don't need feedback when I code for pleasure.

As an employee, sure I get feedback of my code via code reviews. This is fine as well.

From what I understand, the EPA changed their measuring method many, many years ago, to include using the air conditioner, etc; and, from what I can see, mine is well within that range. In fact, I believe it regularly does better than its estimated EPA or right on it. Subaru WRX.
Also a Dokku fan. I don't think this project is related or uses it under the hood ( https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify/search?q=dokku ), although it's clearly similar. The marketing page only mentions Node.js support, but the Readme mentions using Buildpacks (https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify ) although it still isn't clear if it supports languages other than Node JavaScript. I would assume though if the goal is to support buildpacks and be a true Heroku replacement it will soon support everything just like Dokku.

Definitely very cool and something to keep an eye on as it develops!
It doesn’t. Because on-chain transactions are (or will be) too expensive and slow for most people, creating a big business opportunity for middlemen.

Yes, it is, and again, it's not welcome here.

Read the criticism section of the Wikipedia article you posted yourself. There are more than enough intelligent criticisms written of the book.

If you think that my not writing you a lengthy essay explaining why Hitchens is uninformed is somehow indicative that he isn't, I'm not sure what to tell you. Religion is a complicated topic. Pretending that we can solve it in a paragraph is naive at best.

As I already said, if this interests you, read more about religious studies. I am simply saying that "the educated opinion on this topic is that Hitchens is just a popular writer, not a serious thinker on religion." If you disagree with that, well, take it up with the academic community?
> Highly doubtful. Code is free speech, and the ability to run whatever software one wishes is the expression of that free speech.

Yeah, that's not how the law works. There are regulations about what software you can run with software-defined radios, since the FCC regulates radio emissions and SDR allows you to potentially violate those regulations. Free speech is not going to be a defense here that will win you victory in the courts.
It's pretty dang close for 2100 years!
Which makes sense. The type of person Netflix wants to know about their FreeBSD contributions is the type of technical person that will be impressed by non-PR technical talks and think "I want to work with this guy". The average Netflix customer shouldn't care at all about the technical details of the background so doing non-technical PR wouldn't gain anything.

I can understand the belief that Eastern Orthodoxy is more of a "trunk" than more recent "branches", but what about core ideas that predate Jesus? e.g. the immortality of the soul was reasoned by Plato (Republic, circa 350BC); heaven and hell have been portrayed by Virgil (Aeneid, circa 19BC). Aren't these the "trunk", and the Hebrew Bible and Jesus another branch?
Interesting; found a few words about it here: https://www.eink.com/e-ink-film.html
Very curious as to how it works.
I'm not sure the collective "we" will ever truly know. I'd imagine a LOT of that livestock died and they aren't going to be jumping up and down to volunteer how many/much given the negative PR. If they did divulge that would probably be the easiest jumping off point for hard losses.
Because you see risk in holding your assets in that ecosystem.
For me, the problem isn’t that it doesn’t do one thing well, which is clearly does, it’s that there are no other tools to process trees.

So it fits well with the UNIX ethos of a small tool doing one thing well, but not so much the concept of pipelines, which is closely related.

Obviously not this tool’s fault.

The difference is that Popper thinks you yourself must be the intolerant one. I'm saying that if intolerance exists, then someone else will take care of it because they too must surely exist.
Slightly off-topic: with currency being mostly digital and now crypto-currency being more common, it'll be interesting to see what happens in the event of a massive power failure (e.g. coronal mass ejections, mega-earthquakes, super-hurricanes, etc.). I imagine if you had a bank statement as support, you could at least withdraw money from the bank in the form of cash. Where with crypto you don't have that potential safety-net and any mining operations will take a huge hit, possibly causing catastrophic volatility in its worth.
Looks nice. Perhaps a next step could be an ncurses program that allows you to fold/unfold the trees at arbitrary places, and select entries to reveal their full path (useful for copy+paste).
If you want to dig more: this is just a re-hash of Edmunds article describing their test: https://www.edmunds.com/car-news/testing-teslas-range-anxiet...

Here's a Tesla Daily podcast where Rob Mauer interviews head of Edmunds about the test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rb1toreNTrU

You can form your own opinion but Edmunds is roasted in the comments of this interview.

If you ask me Edmunds goes to great length to not report actual numbers. In the article they only tell you how many miles Teslas have driven after the car shows 0 range. This is to account for safety buffer.

They were criticized for an earlier test where they didn't account for this.

But instead of just telling what are the new numbers, they apparently want you to add number from earlier test (which was done in different conditions like outside temperature and driving style) and this delta from new test to arrive at total number.

It's almost as if the new test mostly invalidated their previous result but they're going out of their way to not admit that. Reeks of dishonesty.

The "zero range" tends to be a safety buffer for gas engines and electric motors alike and should not be included in the official range statements, imo.

No, it's the SSH client who responsible which SOCKS request will be wrapped in which SSH connection. Stock implementation opens forwarded connections inside virtual channel of single SSH session.

Besides that you have to keep pool of steady established SSH sessions in order to start new connection forwarding inside separate SSH session as soon as incoming SOCKS requests coming.

Plain SSH client is neither able to maintain multiple SSH carrier sessions nor keep reserve pool of steady underlying connections.

Lightning is a competitor to Visa...
I can't put my finger on it but I doubt the valuation of bitcoin/other crypto assets when converted to USD. Look at NFTs: there's no way those prices would hold if someone were actually paying USD. Those prices are only possible because people are exchanging one funny-money cryptocurrency for another.

I think the basic issue is there is huge amounts of cryptocurrency that can't be converted to USD for one reason or another (proceeds of ransomware, inability to pass KYC checks, etc.), and that is causing some crypto assets to be worth far less USD than others, and inflating the price of assets when purchased with those coins. But that isn't stopping people from pricing them just the same.
Isn't that the entire plot of Mr. Robot (S1)? :)

> 0-60 figures measured from a rolling start instead of dead stop

That's pretty normal. One magazine (I don't remember if it is one of the car magazines or Consumer Reports) offers both numbers, from a true standstill and with a slightly rolling start. The latter is much more common, I believe.
Middle millennial here. I've pretty much given up home for my generation getting the opportunity to experience this effect. The problem seems to be a combination of boomers having been too greedy and millennial expecting opportunities to "trickle down" if they play within the system they were taught to.

Newer generations lucked out because they learned early that boomers will only help themselves and the only chance they have for social mobility is to gamble their way into wealth. Lucky for them, they'll get to live out their life being served coffee by some of the smartest, most well educated baristas the world has ever seen.
Except bitcoin isn't actually used as a currency, it's only really used as an asset. As such it's not in competition with anything functionally, because it has no significant functional utility outside it's asset value.
Exactly. Not to mention installs being insanely fast.
I would imagine a cost plus contract?
But again the thing is, if you're going to take this line of thought, then secularism itself is really just a variation of Christianity. And at that point, of what use are the distinctions we are making? If Soviet communism is a kind of Christianity, it's certainly a kind significantly different enough to notice and bracket off. Certainly it has little use for say, The Bible, or priest-like figures, or various other things that do tie together the different branches of Christianity.
>They can seize the assets of all of the Bitcoin trading exchanges overnight

The exchanges don't hold the assets. At least not of the guys that know what they're doing.

In all 195 countries? Doubtful.

Even if by some miracle this could be pulled off, there are now decentralized exchanges.

Pretty much the only thing that would make any dent is getting visa & mastercard to shut down what they can...except they're both making moves in favour of Bitcoin currently

That's kind of crazy of Amnesty to take this sloppy approach to their definitions. While systems are not perfect by any means, the US is in a totally different category with respect to corruption, rule of law, judicial independence, even conviction rates than other countries. We have a trial by jury here - does Amnesty not even look at what is going on in other countries with judiciaries that are actually totally corrupt?

I would be interested in some of the examples of tourists and visitors being killed by police - I pay somewhat close attention to that. There are issues of violence that really shock visitors to the US, including killings, but I hadn't realized the police were playing such a big role. Could you give some examples of visitors being killed by police (ie, the issue Amnesty is warning people over?).

Certainly, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26346226 is the post I was thinking of. Pretty sure the article is older.

Do let me know if I misrepresented it. I thought it was a clever way to show that the models are not finding inherent relations in the data, by just randomly labeling all training data and having the same speed/accuracy on the random labels as on the real ones.

Edit: I worded the above poorly. They showed the models were capable of merely learning the training data. Despite that, they also showed that moving the trained models from test to validation did not have a linear relationship with the amount of noise they added to the data. That is, the training methods seem indistinguishable from memorization, but also seem to learn some generalisations.
In those places, the reality is that the vast majority of "packages" will be coded in house.
As opposed to the actual battles engaged in by the various religious groups over morality.

If each Route 53 POP is already close to the querying DNS client, then things like geo routing with cached answers might just work well enough in most cases? With each POP having its own cache.

Auto-refreshing the popular records in the background before the TTL expires to help smooth over any temporary issues?

Other big name DNS providers have ALIAS type records. I imagine according to the SLA, AWS Route 53 is still "available", even if it can't resolve a "target address record" (as the ANAME draft calls them) but Route 53 is still able to respond.

I put this here, in part because I like Atari 8 bit 6502 computers, but also because I really like how this idea of suggesting projects works:

You get a goal, estimated time, what you need, and each is bite sized, generally fun and many will teach the person who does them a little retro something.

Would be nice to see this spread. Obviously other 8 bit / old computers are easy targets, but so are things like the Raspberry Pi.
The recommended calorie consumption for women is 2000 a day. 2000 minus 500 is 1500. The average American is not exercising enough to be burning 300 calories a day; so how does one justify cutting down further to 1200?

> + several large institutions (e.g. California Federal pensions, cancer charity endowments, etc) that millions depend on have significant bitcoin holdings.

This is actually a key observation, and I hope that some crypto whales can see that it may be in their best interest to donate large amounts of crypto to some high-profile charities (or possibly University endowments?)

Not only would they get income tax deduction for charitable giving, if they donate the crypto directly (rather than converting it), they pay no capital gains on a conversion.

Plus, importantly, the philanthropic beneficiary -- ideally high profile -- is now invested in ensuring the survival of said alternative financial system.

Your rule is much weaker to the point of being useless -- you are claiming that if it took me 1 hour to write high-level code, the compiler will generate better assembly code than what I can write in 1 hour.

This is obviously true in most cases -- if it takes me an hour to write task X in high-level language, it will probably take me a day or more to write it in assembly. After spending only one hour on assembly version the program will be nowhere close to completion, and likely completely non-functional. So whatever compiler produces will be much better -- it will at least work.

I can believe that at some moment hand-rolled assembly will "beat" generated code (I am pretty sure that if someone spends a month optimizing assembly listing it will beat the best Rust program written in a hour), but I am not sure what the ratio is. I am sure it is not 1:1, and I suspect the ratio gets worse as program grows and there are more parts that one needs to keep track of.
You're confusing econdings with what they represent. For instance, the EBC doesn't care about BTC because they're not euros and never will be.
