Ah... The ML scientist's "Metrics are harmless. People doing stupid things with metrics on the other...".

Or if I'm being too subtle, this is the ML practitoner's "Guns don't kill people. People kill people."

Which is absolutely right, I might add; but also a stop point and consideration that should be had before you go training something on sketchy data, and unleashing it on an unknowing populace.
I think the idea is super cool, and the execution works very well ! Definitely much better than what I anticipated.

The first thing that jumped to my mind is not that I can use it from 6ft away, but mostly that it can be used to control things even if I don't have the conf call window I'm in in the foreground (which happens to me quite a lot).

Some ideas I had while playing with it :

- Some sound feedback would be nice, for example a little bip when switching from value to value in a menu : in the context of not having the call in the foreground, it allows to make sure that the gesture is registered.

- Swipe gestures could be a nice addition, for example a swipe up or down to mute/unmute the mic

- I'm overall less convinced by the "control by phone" flow

- It's surprising for the welcome video to be without sound : I initially thought my headphones where not connected or something. Overall, I think the welcome video present the functionalities very well and goes straight to the point, which is very appreciable ! But it feels a bit rough around the edges.

- A bit of smoothing when selecting would make the experience a bit better : I don't want to know that my fingers are shaking this much !

But in any case, congratulation on the product, it's really really cool !

It’s much easier for deployment and distribution purposes to add a level of indirection in your codebase than maintain a fork of a large project. Maintaining a fork is a full time job in itself, especially for active projects where you’ll need to constantly be merging new changes and keeping up with the evolution of the internals of the project via the mailing list or other means.
Toyota doesn't have to physically hold the chips/modules to accomplish they. They have contracts with suppliers that lock in how much inventory the supplier has to have on hand, and how much supply they need locked in from their own upstream suppliers.

One criticism of Toyota's production system is that they aren't so much "just in time" as it sounds on the surface, rather they just force their suppliers to run the warehouse instead of them. Which still makes sense - Toyota wants to be in the car business, not the warehouse and logistics businesses.

I agree with you. It is an anti-thesis that is why it is marketed as anti-kubernetes toolset.

You cannot avoid learning k8s, you will end up encountering it everywhere, whether you like it or not. It is the tech-buzz word for past few years followed by cloud native and devops.

I really thinking if you wish to be great engineer and truly respect new general tools in generally, you have to go through the route setting up proxmox cluster, loading images, building those VM templates etc. Jumping directly on containers and cloud you kind of skip steps. It is not bad, you do miss our on few foundational concepts, around networking, operating systems etc.

The way I would put it is - A chef who is also farming their own vegetables a.k.a setting up your own clusters and deploying your apps VS a chef who goes to high-end wholeseller to buy premium vegetables does not care how it is grown aka. developers using kubernetes and container orchestration, PaaS.
For me it was The Joel Test:

I read it early in my career.

It was a simple way to assess team quality.

It's relevant today (there are parts that are out of date, but most of it is still on the mark).

It showed me the power of long form writing to share ideas around software.

If things got that bad I think there’d be increased incentive to invent something to clean it up. It’s a very hard problem, but it doesn’t seem impossible to deal with, I think it just requires fairly extreme intervention.

I think most orbits naturally decay, too, so there’d be a time limit even if we couldn’t clean things up.

‘Industry’ could care less about an API for depth sensors on the Windows platform — cause industry can’t accept an autonomous system that has a ‘failed to download software update’ dialogue on the screen 80% of the time.

Intel’s pitch was always aimed at consumers or maybe light ‘enterprise’ such as an interior decorator who takes measurements with a tablet. Self-driving cars, industrial robots, etc. were always going to be based on a more robust platform.
Agree. I think that advice panders to people who want advice they can act on today. You can choose to save $3 at your next grocery store visit right away and it won’t even hurt.

However, telling people to work on earning more feels like an impossibly difficult ask for many. You’ll get instant pushback when you suggest it, so bloggers avoid it.

FIRE blogging is more about pandering to what people want to hear. It is, after all, a big money blogging niche these days. Alienating the reader is to be avoided if you want to keep readership up, so career and earnings are to be approached delicately if at all in their writings.

However, Bender and Readi found that boiling the beans for 10 minutes (100°C) completely destroyed the toxin. Consumers should boil the beans for at least 30 minutes to ensure that the product reaches sufficient temperature, for a sufficient amount of time, to completely destroy the toxin."

So new cars are going to be come more expensive due to supply limitations and in turn used cars will continue to become more expensive as they can rise to a certain % of the new car price. At the same time housing prices continue to sky rocket. Seems like not a great time for someone just stepping into adulthood and financial responsibility.
You're right about quantity and quality, that's why I mentionned quantity precisely. Quantity usually means that most of the stuff has already been made by someone, and people seem to value that a lot. I'll add that the documentation of your average OCaml or Haskell library is not the best, while from experience Go is a bit better (usually there are a few basic examples).

> The first and only complete recipe for the drink—and the primary source for modern recreations—turns up in 1393, in what might be considered a manual of mansplaining.

Really? Mansplaining in the 14th century? Is that how historical subjects are going to be treated now?

> An anonymous French writer penned an exhaustive guide to etiquette, moral conduct, and the practical concerns of a young bride, from choosing servants to throwing feasts: Le Ménagier de Paris (The Good Wife’s Guide). “It’s a ridiculous book,” says Verberg. “It’s micromanagement. I would not have wanted to be his wife.”

Nor would she (or he) have wanted you as her husband (or wife), she (he) would possibly not even have recognised you are a marriage-worthy candidate. Times change, attitudes change, mores and morals change, that is what makes history so interesting. Knee-jerk virtue signalling is not a sign of a good historian.

Read Machiavelli's The Prince for another detailed manual on how to behave, in this case on how to become an effective prince. Was Machiavelli mansplaining as well, seeing as how he wrote the book to instruct another male?

Let history be history and study it for what it is, the past which eventually led to the present. Rest assured that once we are history many of our cultural traits will seem strange as well. Rest assured that what is considered virtuous now will be considered something totally different in a few centuries - if not a few decades.

Also, stop using labels like mansplaining, it adds nothing to the discourse and only leads to polarisation of the 'he is not in my camp' type.

What’s really interesting is I believe at least one commissioner (or perhaps staff member?) has made comments hinting that it works the other way, too. It can identify “related” transactions executed by other seemingly random people and, when they look into it, they find out the person who executed the trade does indeed know the original person under investigation.

If you're susceptible to that effect then presoaking will help, but susceptibility depends on your individual microbiome. Some vegans use the liquid that chickpeas were cooked in as an egg substitute ("aquafaba"). I personally drain the liquid off after cooking, and don't notice any problems.
In school, I noticed that many people don't learn deeply.
They get good grades even with a shallow understanding of the material.

They learn by heart and are not interested in why something works. (For example, what a Fourier transform essentially does. A Fourier transform is essentially projecting a target function to the sinusoidal bases. That is what the dot product implies.) I don't think this is necessarily related to intellect. I think it is somewhat related to laziness and lack of interest or curiosity.

They use a bunch of formulas and code snippets and glue it together until it somehow works without understanding it.

I am a big believer in learning deeply by focusing on the fundamentals.
Here's what I previously wrote about that very topic:

> Instead of APIs, learn the fundamental algorithms that those APIs provide. Instead of OpenGL, learn rendering algorithms (raserization, Bresenham etc.). The same applies for other frameworks such as Vue.js. Learn how to write a virtual DOM yourself. Learn how JS operates under the hood. Learn how to implement a hash table (std::unordered_map) and a dynamic array (std::vector); understand why you cannot simply delete a bucket when using the open addressing scheme. Learn C and memory management, since many other programming languages are influenced by C. Implement the algorithms in C if you are proficient enough in it (gives you a better understanding).

> 1/10 documents created in Word would just look broken when opened in libre.

Versioning might play a role here. On Office I've often observed the tendency to use by default the latest format available, no matter if the poor guy on the other side will have to upgrade the suite to load it, therefore LibreOffice might come late since its developers for some time have to debug what Office already implements.
I now set up all LO installations i do for me and other people to output where possible (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) in Office 97-2003 formats, so they hardly give problems on Windows machines.

> As an example VW reports that 70% of the energy the use in plants is provided by renewable sources.

This is a great start, but not where most of the carbon embodied in a new vehicle comes from. The energy used by the VW plants keeps the lights on, air conditioned, and powers tools for assembly. Most of the carbon embodied in a car comes from the energy it takes to mine raw materials and process them into useful metals.
I think Juju (and Charms) really shine more with bare-metal or VM management. We looked into trying to use this for multi-tenant deployment scenarios a while ago (when it was still quite popular in the Ubuntu ecosystem) and found it lacking.

At this point, I think Juju is most likely used in place of other metal or VM provisioning tools (like chef or Ansible) so that you can automatically provision and scale a system as you bring new machines online.
I agree with you that Apple should be held to a different standard on their iPhone platform, but Microsoft Windows came up during a different era and is basically a monopoly on the desktop.

That's funny. I find HN far more annoying because of conversations like this. Instead of having good technical conversations it's almost always people critiquing things like the font that someone's using on their site, and for some insane reason it's voted up to the top. And here I am contributing to the problem by extending this stupid thread further.

I had to scroll down ~75% of this page, passing what seemed like many dozens of posts all saying the same useless shit about the format and not talking at all about the content.

And that got me to the next top post, which... is someone just unrolling it.

Thankfully, soon after, someone asks a legitimate question about the content. Nearly at the bottom.

The twitter thread on the other hand is concise and easy to scroll through. A couple of memes because someone's having fun telling their story seems relatively benign compared to the average HN comments section drivel.

>Especially when comparing to Toyota.

Toyota been saying "don't worry guys, we fixed the rust issues, the new ones won't be rusting out" every year since 1985 and running a more or less rolling recall since the 00s.

Or was that not the implication of your comparison?

Teslas will last a long time because the most important indicator of vehicle reliability is one that they share more or less 1:1 with Toyota, customers who who put very easy miles on vehicles and dutifully maintain them.

That said, I fully agree that we have nowhere near the length of data set we need to know how Teslas will fare in terms of reliability and longevity (not the same thing) after adjusting for how they are used.

The int example was a bit misguided, seeing as int is a primitive type in Go, different from pointer types. In Python, both are references.

Basically, it's the difference between returning None from a function `def f() -> MyClass` in Python (which is type error) versus returning nil from `func f() &MyClass`, which is completely normal in Go.

Having `Optional` in the function signature makes it explicit that one has to check for Nones. Go lacks that.

What is the pitch for the hyperloop?

If you owned a 300 mile right of way between your two destinations, is it actually substantially better than a train in terms of speed or energy use? Or is it only because it can burrow under existing infrastructure that it becomes worth doing?
Reading the abstract, they didn't mention which sources ended up making more power, but I'd guess that (iii) an accretion disk, and (vi) relativistic jets are biggest.

However, my first thought is wouldn't the Dyson sphere itself get in the way of the accretion disk?

Stars are generating energy by fusing previously accreted mass. But black holes need new mass to accrete and accelerate to add energy. It seems a hapless incoming star about to get spread into accretion disk material might do some serious damage to the Dyson sphere?
