5G allows for mmWave but does not require it. I have 5G in my area for Verizon but its mostly low band normal 4G frequencies. I have seen mmWave once at the fair grounds and it was nice hitting 1200MBps with tons of people streaming videos etc. otherwise it seems similar to 4G on low band.

The mmWave really shines in crowed areas like the fairground, stadiums, busy downtowns, shopping centers etc. but has poor penetration and range. Verizon looks to be wanting to use is for home broadband use as well with base stations mounted all around neighborhoods. I would imagine they see it replacing WiFi with easily provisioned access points in commercial business etc.

My understanding on low band is its a overlay on their 4G network for now so it works but has almost no benefit. There supposedly is benefits to the low band side such as lower latency and better spectrum sharing over 4G but it's unclear if that applies in an overlay scenario. Moving forward they will probably bring more low /medium bands on as 5G only, perhaps finally sunsetting their 3g network and refarming as 5g only.
You can easily import the csv file into sqlite and you don't even have to create the table fields beforehand
I just decided to stop pursuing a home loan with a company because of a few anti patterns like this. The first was there was actually no “log in” button whatsoever. You have to click “create an account”, and _then_ there’s a log in link.

The second, more fatal anti pattern is not allowing paste in the password field. There’s simply no way I’m going to memorize random 30-digit password for your website. (I had to use dev tools to actually paste the password). Even though the APR was good we moved on.
I keep a non-commercial installation of SQLServer on my machine for this reason, but this is likely overkill for most purposes and requires a Windows machine.

It does have some nice import features for CSV data though.
The problem is not just lack of liquidity. If that was the case, the simple solution would be to just print a bunch more money. Then people would have more cash laying around, more of it would end up in banks, which would allow banks to extend more credit.

However, this is unlikely to be the root of the problem. More likely is that the national economy is simply not productive enough to reach the production levels needed to enjoy prosperity similar to the one observed in developed countries. What that means is that on the one hand, too much of existing production is going into consumption, and too little into investment. Instead of building more houses, they should be building more cement plants, more building material factories etc, and the same goes for other sectors of economy too (eg if agriculture mechanization allows fewer people to work on food production, more people will be available to work on house construction). Of course, given the already low levels of production and consumption, it’s hard to reduce consumption even further, but then again, prosperous western countries used to be just as poor in the past, and they managed to pull themselves by their bootstraps anyway. In many ways, African countries today have it easier, as the knowledge of what to do and how already exists.

In addition to too scarce investment, a second major factor is differences in productivity on individual worker level. The sources of these differences are really diverse: they range from bad people management practices, through use of inefficient work techniques, higher human error rates resulting in more time wasted on useless products, and many more. This is a harder problem, and there are no simple solutions, but on the bright side, the longer economy is stable, the more companies have time to mature and refine their practices, so this is improving on its own over time.

And lastly, there is often problem of bad institutional practices, like excessive taxation, excessive regulation, government corruption etc. It’s much easier to build a cement factory when you don’t have to care much about environmental regulations, and this is exactly the regulatory regime that countries like Britain, US or China enjoyed when they were climbing themselves out of poverty. Similarly, there is more money for investment, if the government is taking less of it. This sounds like something easy to change, but in practice the institutional inertia, combined with copying Western practices as of right now rather than as of when they were of similar development levels makes it harder than it should be.

That could be true, but it’s still a good measure of IQ. This “cultural” angle is a narrative that started from criticisms of SAT vocab tests and critics of IQ tests latched onto it and hope they can convince everyone that IQ isn’t real and everyone is equally smart in their own way

You do have to admire the chutzpah of someone pointing bold arrows to the data points in 1971 when the graph in question shows a clear inflection point in 1980 instead (or in many cases near the end, no clear inflection point at all).
SQLite is what you're looking for. If you want to use the CLI,

.format csv
.import <path to csv file> <table name>

Alternatively, read your data into pandas and there's extremely easy interop between a DBAPI connection from the python standard lib Sqlite3 module and Pandas (to_sql, read_sql_query, etc.).
An LBO is a type of hostile takeover. In either case, the motivation from the "aggressor" is not typically "gee I just really want this company to succeed".

In any case, I certainly don't think Musk's relationship with Tesla qualifies.
Windows provides an ODBC driver for CSV files - I don't know how this would play with Pandas.
> What I saw and what I felt were literally beyond my imagination, it was so exotic and specific in a way that I could never have anticipated.

I have this many nights when I'm conscious of falling asleep. I get wildly fantastical thought patterns for which I feel that I'd never be able to make them up. Also the randomness is sometimes insanely wide.

Like, I'd go from seeing a woman in a field, to a fragment of a golfball (being chipped off from the actual golfball), to something gaining the gestalt of a zom-, oh wait, it looks like a bir-, no it's now a canoe and I'm enjoying the ride on this thing! Whiieeejjj!

^ My conscious mind made that up, so it's a lot less random and a lot less uncategorized yet categorized.

There's a Rick and Morty scene that feels a bit like this, but less existential, less orderly and more random (in my case) [1].

Isn't it sad that all our tech giants are guilty of anti-competitive behavior? You know, things that are supposedly illegal and should have been stopped by government regulators long ago?

It makes me wonder if these American businesses are really so different from the likes of Tencent, Huawei, etc and their ties to the Chinese government. Everyone knows those companies are only as big as they are because of government support. Can you really say that isn't the case with Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook, etc?
Conspiracy theory: the Swedes were cool with letting Covid---a disease that was particularly deadly for seniors---run loose to ease the cost of senior care in their socialist system.
I'm so torn about macros.

They are awesome but they make compile-time arbitrarily bad. The D compiler is roughly as fast as the Go one. However, D has macros though and that makes it very slow to compile sometimes.

The alternative to macros are code generators. Works fine for bigger stuff like a parser generator but not for smaller stuff like a regex.

The nuclear security agency in France is one of the toughest in the world, and is independent. They notably demand "current" state-of-the art security for all nuclear plants (vs. state-of-the-art at the time of building in the US, typically)

French nuclear plants typically never killed anyone (and will never), unlike German coal plants (which are at least partially responsible for the 22,000 coal-related premature deaths every year)

Nuclear energy is a very emotionally polluted debate (no pun intended), but facts tend to shows that this is the cleanest and safest energy.
Unfortunately, now having read this and seen his pictures, you really can't come to any conclusion.

If you'd gone into things not having read this/seen the pictures, had an experience like his, came across his post, then things get interesting to think about atleast.

Sucks haha.

As absolutely outright inhumane as it is, all I'd like to see in my lifetime (which is in effect nearly impossible) is a human raised in practically a clean room (or idk, just any enclosed environment) where they're fed and cared for, but without any actual human interaction (all automated), then given psychedelics such as ahuyasca. After that, attempt to somehow integrate them for the purpose of, well, you get the idea.

Then comes the issue of even if that all works out, not knowing how the environment they were raised in contributed to the experience and such.

I'm drunk, the above is most definitely probably torture (and also very poorly worded but i think the jist is there haha), but damn, I'm just so curious.

edit:
Didn't entirely read before commenting either. Typical HN right. Can guarantee if my dead grandmother were to be a vibrating entity in my head that would sparsely speak to me, she would've definitely said something about the porn by now. Gotta dismiss his thoughts on that one
Bill of Exchange discounting goes back many centuries. It should be possible to compare this historic discount rate to inflation.

I think it would be interesting to see the result, but I don’t have the data unfortunately.
I have used marijuana for approximately twenty years to deal with anxiety and PTSD. The VA hasn’t been too bad but day in, and out, cannabis has had a more positive effect on my overall being, personality, and coping abilities, than the pills the VA used to give me.
Of course, but what's the point? I use WSL for 3-4 programs, that's it. My entire toolchain is Windows-compatible, and installed through chocolatey with the default configuration.
This explanation doesn't explain the difference to me at all. Costco can see that vodka sells well, so they can make Kirkland brand vodka. They control the layout of the store, so they can change the layout so people see Kirkland brand first when they get to the liquor section. They know the pricing of other vodkas and which ones sell well, so they can source Kirkland vodka at an ideal price point.

None of what you've described about Amazon differentiates it from Costco at all.
132 column mode was pretty common on old terminals, and not too terrible if you had a 12+ inch CRT. Typically, still 24 rows though.
> Multiple installed emacs packages do not execute their code simultaneously unless they are using something like run-with-timer to schedule tasks on the event loop.

Yes, that's accurate, but that's the whole problem. The code executes sequentially, so each custom execution adds latency. It's not unusual to have elisp from several packages executing with every keypress.
As someone who came of age during the 90s, I am amazed at how little this story matters in terms of real-world impact now.
The amount of additional money in any road budget for this is $0. Are Tesla and Waymo et al supposed to fund this out of pocket? Because otherwise it's not happening.
Why does the integrity of the future floors worry you when the intent was never to add future floors? The intent was simply to make it appear as there was a plan of future floors.
I don’t know about Ayahuasca in particular, but with psychedelics in general, one of the most important aspects for the experience, is the setting that you are in. It is well known that whatever the setting and how you feel about it in that moment, will have a great effect on your experience.

A good example is the Good Friday Experiment at Harvard, in which they gave psilocybin to some people and took them to church, then quite a few of them had “religious experiences”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsh_Chapel_Experiment#Expe...
Except for Amazon, that would still be extremely successful without AWS, the others had their original business model disrupted.

So far Google still have a stronghold on search, they've been able to secure it with Android and Chrome by controlling the devices, they seem to be doing fine.

Literally in your comment you say you want American English spelling. Which Canadian English is not. Every point I made was directly in response to what you wrote.
We also use Amazon data to find/develop products to sell. I assume all sellers do.
Anecdote: I've never done this and couldn't have fathomed a reason to have done so before this.
> I wish there were more shows today about rural communities, it might help us understand one another better.

You'd have to get TV writers that want to understand rural communities first, instead of painting dumb-shit broad strokes from fuzzy memories of watching Green Acres as a kid. Mostly, though, they just do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4k9_N4k5IQI
Same here. In some cases, AMP screws up the article formatting as well at least in my experience. I never share the Google/AMP link if I can help it.
That doesn't sound aligned with the California case yesterday?
This is obscuring the difference between a community choosing to have reduced service and, since 2013, the postal service mandating that service be reduced.

No, it has not always been the case that the USPS mandated a reduced level of service to new housing developments. That is a big deal. They are effectively saying that they are not going to support door to door delivery to any housing community in America, regardless of what that housing community wants.
I held this view before graduating and moving back to my 3rd world home country. For some reason, people here (the established ones with 5+ years of experience) see SQL as a general purpose programming language with which they do as much as possible.
It would be such a blessing. Not even going into the obvious ethical and political implications of an AMP-powered web, it simply has broken UX on mobile. On iPhone it is possible to horizontally scroll the pages and then they are stuck in an unreadable state until reload. Seeing only "google.com" in the header is just the icing on the cake. Instead of one click to go to the source page you need to open a menu to go there. It makes me furious every time. IMHO Google really jumped the shark with AMP. Claiming it is for the users good and speed of the web is just hypocrisy. We would not need "accelerated" mobile pages if it was not for the garbage 10mb of trackers that are on every page because it helps them monetize with Google.
Iron gall ink is a poor choice for documents that should last a long time. It's an acidic ink, which damages paper. The iron rusts over time. The ink blooms. These things are manageable if the documents in question are stored in a cool, dry place. But why bother when there are better inks today?
A local machine shop could probably build up the steel in the worn keyway in the shaft with a welder and cut a new keyway for a good deal less than the new part cost.

Excellent write up. Have yet to read an actual rebuttal of this argument.
Wow - this feels very anti-ETH contract. I've seen so many copypasta-coins that I don't think would exist in this release.

Semi-off topic: In another comment you said you're no longer developing BTC, what on earth could be more appealing right now?
Yeah, I would be interested in this as well. I'm not really up for paying $39 for a half finished landing page of info built using reworded Tailwind UI components.
If you know some locals who own apartments in the metropolitan areas, many will be open about their different modifications they have done without proper permits, because it's so damn hard to actually get the permits.

Yes, the law is very clear about a lot of things, but what happens in reality is often not so clear always.
Rethinking Spotify Search
This has been studied quite extensively and at least semi-scientifically for Ayahuasca specifically and also "clinical" DMT experiences (DMT is the main psychoactive ingredient in Ayahuasca) and the upshot is that yes, the imagery is surprisingly consistent even when removed from the typical ayahuasca-ceremony context and cultural factors. For some references see "The Antipodes of the Mind", a book by an Israeli cognitive psychologist who spent years doing phenomenological study of ayahuasca experiences, and "DMT: The spirit molecule", a book about studies using DMT done in the 90s.
Because YouTube doesn't have to filter for slotting content into a finite amount of broadcast time, it doesn't need executives deciding what programming is worth investing a timeslot in.

... but the sum of all YouTube viewers still have a finite amount of time per day to consume the content, so the game flips from "elevator-pitching some executive your idea is worth risking a highly-valuable timeslot" to "pulling in hundreds of thousands of individual audience members to like, comment, and subscribe."

Much like there are multiple ways to convince an exec, there are multiple ways to attract an audience. While they can look like the same game if one turns one's head and squints, they're mechanically very different.

(... possibly worth noting: YouTube does have premium original programming, which is slightly closer to the old "elevator-pitch your idea" model. But that's more to build exclusive property for its premium offering than to fill timeslots, and one doesn't have to partner with YouTube to reach a broad audience).
It probably wouldn't make much difference. There's pretty good correlation between SAT and IQ. See e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6963451/
Yes, SQL does have the problem of bad composeability and some things being less explicit than they are when working with dataframes. Dplyr is probably the most sane API out of all of them.
That's more like the US $100, which is not accepted usually because

- they are a high denomination bill and people who attempt to counterfeit money like to copy those

- they are not encountered often, and so staff can be unfamiliar with how to verify their authenticity

- as the highest denomination US note, it is very hard to get it out of your till and back as change, and meanwhile it has probably taken a bunch of bills you do often need to give back out of the till
The security model for Java did not include calling native DLLs. That was something that Microsoft added, essentially tossing away the security model in the interest of trying to create a proprietary advantage for Windows in a Java world.
Most popular UV EPROMS have an electrically eraseable EEPROM equivalent, so you can usually avoid it altogether. In the case of the 27C256 in the article, a 29C256 would be a pin compatible drop-in.
Am I missing something or do none of these links even mention AWS?

I’m also unsure how the explicit trust from the government (“consider that govcloud exists”) is somehow evidence for their untrustworthiness?
'may never'

and here u got it.
I'll admit I'm pretty skeptical that the psychedelic drug experience is actually putting people in touch with any kind of external experience that is otherwise hidden to us, but at the very least tripping like this puts people into an internal experience that is otherwise hidden from us, and has some fascinating common patterns like a new perception of inter-connectedness.

And having spent a long time immersed in fields related to computability and information theory, I'm not so sure that it's reasonable to say that if something "only" exists in the minds of a large network of humans, then it is not real.
You could go to the shoutcast website, get the shoutcast links for the radios you were interested in, then make a playlist that could be dealt with just like any other playlist.

And it was almost instant.
jq is a great tool for working with json data, but the author asked for a "command output in table format to json converter."

The output would then be appropriate for jq.
Amazon has less than 20% market share in retail overall. Remember their competitors are not just the online sellers who are pushing this antitrust angle. It’s Walmart and Target and grocery chains and CVS and Walgreens and brick and mortar department stores and so on.
