There’s severe turbulence issues in highly dense wind farms that makes them not favorable to construct. This forces us to build only in very spacious areas. I’m sure there’s designs that are better than the traditional type in highly turbulent areas (can’t vouch for the design from the link due to lack of knowledge) but “how do we not waste so much land” is a good area of research I think.
Eh, the Asahi linux people already have linux running on this chip.

What's in it for Apple is money and better economies of scale for chips. But I don't really think it fits Apple's MO so I doubt they'll do it.
I am wondering if there are some powerful biases in the algorithms, for example "cats" so you add a few small shadows that a human will not notice and the ANN will trigger "Cat" all the time. Then if they fix this you need to find all the other triggers that are hypersensitive and focus on targeting those.

So you would add pixels in an image that trigger cat,car, bus, street etc . You will make the technology more expensive and harder to use by majority of bad actors.
You can pry my debug prints from my cold, dead hands.

I get the point this person is making, but at times (and depending on language) it's the fastest and most efficient option. "Oh, the value is not what I expected" -> fix -> "value is good after testing, can remove the debug print".
It's not elegant, yes, but it does the job with zero preparation and works for every language.
Now if things are so hopeless the debug print doesn't even work, then yes, get a proper debugger.
I'm glad someone mentioned Mullvad - that's on my shortlist at the moment, and the OpenVPN profile stuff is also helpful (Nord has that, too).
I almost went for the M1 but "1.0" kept me sane. I will definitely go for the M2.
I specifically said "some reasonable people" to allow for the possibility that other reasonable people could come to a different conclusion.
You seem awfully against the anti-cancel culture crowd, but do you feel like there should be zero recourse for someone who's company fired them amid public baseless accusations? Say for example a bunch of people jump on a bandwagon to tarnish someone's reputation publicly after hearing from someone else that he (lets be real) did X. So the company fires them because twitter is spreading their name around and then it turns out the accusations were plainly false. Now his income is hamstrung and everything else is just out there.

An even more ridiculous example might be an annocuous disagreement with what a lot of people are saying. "I don't think the cops should be abolished, and anyone should be able to protest for their beliefs".

I don't think anyone disagrees with the other implied strawman of the guy who goes around constantly making rape jokes and is surprised when his friends don't like him anymore. It's more about how easy it is to just spread dirt, truthful or otherwise.
M for mobile could make sense given they've just put an M1 in an iPad Pro. I assumed it was Mac before that and we'd get an M1X or something for higher end models but that seems wrong now.
In the context of the presented html, the first line is <html lang="en" class="no-js"> . So, "no-js" does exist.
As someone else said. It's interesting that the negative responses to this are all incredibly extreme. Someone who likes to drive 1000 miles per day with a 10 minute stop in total. Someone who drives through the Siberian winter. The vast, vast, vast, majority of the population, even the rural population, isn't doing this.
Taiwan also has a severe water shortage. I'd assume that's still a threat to production for Apple.

If you're in an IDE, though, you can use logpoints rather than breakpoints and have the best of both worlds - "print" debugging without the need to recompile to test (and without having to remember to delete the print statement when you're finished with it).
Here's a silly picture I took of Dan with my hedgehog.

Agreed, probably longer. How old is Modernizr?
I want to commend you both for having a civilized conversation about something that can get very heated.

Speaking from my own (ex-Christian) upbringing, I got only the vaguest references to people being gay as a child/teen except that they were all sinners. I certainly couldn't have held a rational conversation about it because, aside from references inside the church I didn't know any gay people (maybe I did, who could know).

It wasn't until I reached adulthood and left that community behind that I began to realize the way LGBTQ* people are and were demonized within certain christian circles.

The argument that marriage is solely for procreation, and/or the property of religions doesn't really hold water. Christians I have come across, seem to think they invented marriage, which is just not even close to historically accurate.

As to procreation only, this is fraught with the way laws treat things like next of kin, power of attorney and tax benefits. None of those things, have anything to do with procreation and yet they're a big part of marriage.

On the positive side @drewbug01, over the course of 15 years I have gone from incredibly uncomfortable with the whole thing (because of upbringing), to some of my best friends being from those communities. There is progress, and with any luck there will continue to be progress.
Or reins. Steering wheels are inaccurate and a dangerous invention, people have already died because of it.
I think this is a consequence of “make your product for the customer”. I think it should’ve been obvious that Americans weren’t Koreans or Kiwis in attitude, numbers, or behavior, and so the solutions requiring that level of cooperation and attention should’ve never left the drawing board. As we’ve seen and as should’ve been obvious: Americans are resistant to authority for one. Solution that get too overbearing too quickly can work, but they have to keep that in mind when considered. At the public health level I hope the architects of these policies at least recognized that fact, even if the whirlwind of spins and politicization in the public made it seem like everything was failing spectacularly.
There is a video on youtube of a Monsanto lobbyist being challenged to do exactly that, quite funny.

I'm not a crypto supporter, but I'd say that he is right there. If _you_ found private key to a wallet with 1 BTC somewhere, would you leave it be? Even if you can't buy a coffee with it, the exchangability for USD is real.
Do you know if Uniplot is able to handle pediatric growth charts ? (https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/index.htm) or generally, being able to plot on a background that is always used, instead of the (default) of a blank page ? such as : https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/who/GrChrt_Boys_24HdCi...

Thanks !

PS: Is the general case of a background image handled by Uniplot, and does Uniplot allow for the idea of taking a PDF, putting the plot data into it, and then creating a new PDF file ?
Teslas have a physical button that controls the wipers when needed. They also can run automatically. Finally they also can be operated via the touch screen, but I never use this last option. You seem to think it’s the only option, but that’s not the case.
Add one big thing: log debugging is convenient when debugging something with concurrency. When stopping on a breakpoint isn't an option.
While I agree with author that record-and-replay debuggers are nice, I don't think they will ever entirely go away. Those debuggers are ultimate "trace loggers", logging each statement and variable -- and thus they have inevitable overhead.

I can see how replay debuggers work with programs like Firefox, where you start with a few megabytes of input data and have a working set of a few hundred megs -- but there are programs with much higher memory/io usage out there.

Something as simple as "download a few gigs of data from internet and calculate its hash" will require enough trace to record all data downloaded, which would make the overhead huge.
Europe Is Trying to Reclaim Its Lost Chipmaking Glory
I still have an iPad 2. I use it in the kitchen to browse recipes.
Nvidia? Ha, never in a million years.

Support for one of the recent Radeons was recently added to macOS, so it's a possibility. No reason the M1 can't do PCIe, as far as I know the only thing keeping eGPUs from working on the M1 right now is software support. It could also be that the driver was added because of the extensibility of the Pro, though.

My expectation is that they'll keep the GPU on the same level, which is "good enough for most users", and focus on hardware acceleration for tasks like video and audio encoding and decoding instead. With an ML chip and fast audiovisual processing, most consumers don't need a beefy GPU at all, as long as you stick to Apple's proprietary standards. Seems like a win-win for Apple if they don't add in an external GPU.
For the next several minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years.

The technology that detects faces LEARNS. The training may take a bit of time, but this obfuscation will last about as long as masks did.

The Chinese Government has had over 90% success in detecting faces that are more than 70% obscured.

How long before their software finds this 'hiding' trivial to unmask?
Can we imagine a future where we're using both a hammer and a screwdriver, depending on situation, without hammer-only and screwdriver-only people yelling at each other?
So Apple and Google decided that expensive apps should subsidize the cheap ones? That sounds almost like a governmental move. I'd rather have the real government regulate the market I'm operating in.
I get that this might not be useful from a technical point of view for this crowd, but it's not exaggerated at all even if the point of failure isn't Google and the app; if we want to be serious about fixing privacy issues, we can't just wave away vulnerabilities that we've accepted for a long time out of pure convenience and apparent difficulty to solve.
> "I think most observers have been expecting an “M1X” for Apple's first pro-oriented ARM Macs"

I'm pretty sure that's what this is, rather than a next-generation ("M2") chip. It will likely have the same cpu core designs as the M1, just more of them. And possibly paired with the new, long rumored "desktop class" Apple GPU.
I really want the next MacBook Pro to support driving two 4K monitors over thunderbolt and have an option to buy 32 gigs of ram.
On iOS, none of that is even possible with physical access. Nothing that you’re saying sounds hard for a malicious actor to pull off. The interesting thing is that you’re getting is a historical log without the need to install anything.
Adobe Releases Open Source Anomaly Detection Tool
Yandex will not be fooled by the small screenshot of Biden they provide (if you crop out the text), and overall yandex is just much better at reverse image lookup than google or tineye.

I think I've seen rumours that the accuracy of the google reverse lookup is artificially lowered because of privacy concerns or something like that though, so it might not simply be superior Russian engineering behind this result.
Lots of things are dangerous. Motorcyclists I know each have a row of busted helmets in a closet. Ski long enough and you'll break something. Bicyclists die on the road every day (in America) and few give it a second thought.

I wonder how diving compares to other off-track sporting activities. Does it have a worse record?
why worse?
I think there's some level of "leave your personal life at home" that isn't completely bad. I don't talk about all of my personal problems at the office.

But the other side of "Work just isn't the place for it" is this: sometimes personal problems affect you so profoundly, that they then affect your work performance. Your colleagues (and management) deserve to know about those things, so they can plan and adjust accordingly (and offer any personal or workplace support that is appropriate).

To use a somewhat silly analogy - we understand that if someone is too sick to work, then they shouldn't come to work. We don't tell people "work just isn't the place for your illness," because we know that some illnesses really make it impossible to do any work. And, that if you don't go home and rest, the ultimate impact to the business will be worse in the long run because you can't recover.

I think some personal problems rise to that level. Getting cut off in traffic and being annoyed? I don't know, maybe not. "The cops just shot 3 more black people like me at traffic stops this weekend and I'm having a really hard time concentrating now" might be a "personal problem" that is highly relevant to bring up at work (and coded as "political," to boot). That kind of thing would understandably rattle you, and it takes time to heal from.

I guess my point is: we're not robots, and it's not possible to really "check it at the door" most of the time. It never really has been.

The Basecamp policy isn't going to stop people from bringing their personal problems to work, overall. But it'll silence black people and gay people from bringing their problems to work, because those are "political" problems to some people.
Kinda feels like Apple's choice at the moment is just their own integrated GPUs. eGPU is also a possibility.
I didn’t have room to fit this in but before I started this company my first company bombed in late 2019 when I was 23 and it left me in a ton of debt and my finances in shambles.

I met my mentor when I was seven years ago when I was 18. He was very successful and built/sold a company in the 1980s

I’m still paying everything off to this day but my mentor (who is 75 years old and a longtime entrepreneur) last year offered to pay off the very high interest loan I had. I’ve been paying him back without fail.
Option 1 - yes, they will

Option 2 - no, but does it matter? It's not like the previous gen Macs had great GPUs and no one is gaming on a Mac anyway.

Option 2.5 - bring back eGPU
It may as well be a new definition. Most websites today are selling something. Even worse, most websites creating content (articles, tutorials, reviews) are doing so for SEO to their SaaS side hustle, online course or for affiliate revenue.

There should be a separate term for websites made for purely personal use, and it's not 'social media'. The early web was about making exploration fun. Nobody wants to explore someone's cookie cutter social media profile or the workplace for their second job.
You may already be aware of it, but jupytext solves most of the problems ipynb files cause.
Ask HN: How to Prioritize
I have seen numerous Software Engineers, Web Developers and, tech people working on various domains in different renowned companies, who are literally active in everywhere! For example, they are extremely good at their fields of work. They are equally active on Social Media such as Twitter or, Facebook etc. Also, maintain blogs with quality contents. Most of them posts valuable answers to Stack overflow, Quora etc. They also Attend conferences/ meetup with slides full of gems and, not to mention about their high quality presentations(indicates their dedication in preparation). And, actively posts update about recent series/movies/musics they watched or, books they have finished reading! I might have missed some other things they do but, I just wonder how do they manage their time to such extend! How do they do it?
For the sake of argument just imagine it was a bio-warfare attack on the US (it isn't) and compare casualties to, say, Pearl Harbor, or 9/11. Before the pandemic, would you have expected US society to sacrifice half a million American lives?
In my field, I hear the word "legacy" used for applications that just work, and don't require a lot of tweaks because they handle the use cases that come up commonly.
...but they also just put it in the iMac...
The US is all about risk, money, and power transfer. Maybe everywhere is but I've only lived in the US.

In the case of of CCs, there is an assumption that a certain portion of people will take high interest credit offered by the cards and that they will incur interest and have to pay that. The rates are often incredibly high, something like 20%+. To encourage more people to use these cards to increase the population and likihood people will be forced to pay these interests, CC companies offer incentives like cash back, no-interest periods to encourage borrowing behavior or misunderstanding of the boundary time for payments for at least one hefty interest payment, etc. They also offer an alternative to people who have difficulty receiving a loan for some item any other way.

Debit cards on the other hand are offered by traditional banks. Many of these are free and associated with free or nearly free accounts (usually requiring your regular income deposited or a minimum balance they can invest elsewhere while you let it sit idle). Banks are not incentivized for you to spend money. It's in their interest for your money to sit in your account theyre investing elsewhere or for them to charge you various service fees. They're less inclined to give you incentives and protections to use these cards.

If consumers get to a point of using credit cards in a responsible manner (essentially more people exploiting their benefits than CC providers exploiting them), you'll see these features and protections slowly peeled away. Many cards used to even offer price protection where if an item changed prices than the price point you purchased at, the CC company would refund you the difference. Obviously enough people took advantage of this vs the pool of people paying high interest that these features slowly peeled away. Time and value limits were introduced and tightened, card providers began to remove these, and now few if any cards provide this. This is one consumer feature/perk that used to exist that no longer exists because the normalized increasingly responsible use of cards by consumers. There are several more (rental protection, road side protection, flight delay protections, and a host of perks). Now you often have to pay a fee for a card that has such perks and need to be sure your spending rates are high enough to warrant the fee.

Payment systems aren't about payment systems and detecting fraud, they're about building complex systems people want to participate in under the assumption the complex system will at large extract wealth from the people using the system, not the other way around. Even something as trivial as just paying for exchange of services/good would be straightforward but it's not, it's gamed to pass risks, extract money, and transfer power.
You'll find radiators in many older buildings (before about 1930 or so, at least in my area). Some are steam and some are hot water. The problem with them is that they tend to have higher maintenance costs plus if you wanted AC, you'd need to have a separate system, including ductwork. AC is relatively cheap to add to a house with forced air heating and quite expensive to add to a house with radiators. Mini Split AC systems are changing that somewhat, but they haven't caught on too well here.

You can also find baseboard heating, but that tends to be electric and have quite expensive operating costs. It's mostly only used in additions and places where you would only heat the space if you were currently in the room.

> This is the detachable showerhead thing all over again.

Uhhh... Everywhere I've lived in the US has had a detachable showerhead, from places built in the 1890s to places built in the 2000s. It's a normal thing for apartment dwellers to buy a nicer showerhead to replace the likely cheap and crappy one that landlord installed and then put the crappy one back before moving out.
I have read it, but it is not short, and so I can't possibly remember all the details. That said I do not remember much/any mention of Islamic jurisprudence: it was more a renaissance of Roman law (see Code of Justinian and Corpus Juris Civilis) The first 1-2 chapters actually go into Roman law (and before), as that was used as the initial base. There's a thread of ancient law even in the present day:

* https://utpress.utexas.edu/books/perlman-ancient-greek-law-i...

From the little I know about Islamic jurisprudence, specifically through the works of Toby Huff,[1] the tribunals were more 'private' and the rulings were done more by something that we'd call arbitration, and 'case files' would remain in the judge's/arbitrator's possession.

> lightweight: No. systemd uses way too many resources for system infrastructure software.

I'd love to see some numbers for this point. I'm also curious what's the threshold for too many resources for the author.
I've always been amazed by investment and sales conferences. More times than not they are literally little more than a long string of confidence building techniques or almost religious slogan repeating.

Rarely have I seen a new idea and only a few rare times did I see math or actual respectable research that made me go. Hmmm. This is an interesting idea worth looking into.

My guess is because math and such is boring.
I don't think this works with 2019 or later Intel Macbooks, but as far as I know the most recent relevant information and drivers are here: https://github.com/roadrunner2/macbook12-spi-driver. In my own experience, it's the trackpad, keyboard, and built-in speakers that don't work, but everything else seemed to be fine (2015 macbook).

Edit: this driver got the keyboard and trackpad to work, but the microphone, speakers, and webcam did not work. I also needed to downgrade to an older kernel (4.14) to get storage to work. All external things worked fine even through a hub, and the headphone jack also worked fine.
Also, Google isn't best in class at reverse image lookup so they chose to test themselves against the lower bar. If you try this exercise in yandex it finds results of Biden, you just have to crop out the surround text.
And comments like this are why I no longer do any web programming.

You could try to raise this question on the Forum either Pikchr's or Fossil's. Folks there are quite responsive, also possible to ask questions without the need to sign up.
Fair enough. A doctor basically explained it to me like that over a decade ago, and I took their word for it. Which is uncharacteristic of me to just take someone's word for something, and repeat it.
The thing is, every competitor is going to upgrade to these and if you stay with inferior Intel products, you give yourself competitive disadvantage. Unfortunately this is the current state of play. If I won't be able to achieve something the same speed competitor can, I put myself in a bad spot. I try to not mix emotions and business, however for a personal machine, I am rocking 5950X and it is awesome.

If they were to (re)enter this market they'd have to support Linux, which I just don't see happening.

What's interesting to me is to see if they'll use M-series chips in their own datacenters. They already run Linux there apparently.
