Existing players generally get to keep their funding for a while.

Space Launch System is ticking along, going to be $20B to first launch and then $2B per launch after that - just imagine those costs.

I have no doubt old Astro existing projects will continue hoovering up the $$. That's fine, some of these are major sunk costs.

I'm pitching throwing some new funding streams at new ideas / providers. Lock out the folks who don't see opportunity (they can still do what they do, just don't have them hoover up the new money).

Or set an observing objective (ie, planets around other starts) and only pay a fixed price on delivery, and put it out to bid.

You need to understand, most of astro now is not delivery based, it's cost based.

At UC berkeley, if you get a grant for your research work at your oncampus office, before you pay for any of your own overhead, berkeley will take probably 40%-60% for just straight "overhead". So a $100M grant, 40M of that will evaporate immediately. No delivery is actually required BTW - just incurring costs -> that's the billable metric. And note, that you are "on campus" when working from your house these days!

Can't we just go back to the era where the "feed" or the "wall" was just the posts of our friends / the people we follow sorted by posting date and not this horrible algorithm made to show you infinite content ?
Wouldn't reducing the high that users get from the same dose lead to addicts taking more, and eventually overdosing? A kind of reverse scenario where someone who has been clean for a while takes way too much and ODs anyway.

Game's fully playable now, though heavily reliant on roleplay. We usually tend between 10-30 players all day in the US at the minute.
The hypothesis that our brain "slows down" does not really require a biological / chemical / physical explanation to be proven correct.

All it takes it looking at how fast folks take to [solve problems / write an essay / read through a book / grok a new concept / learn a new skill] after a certain age.

This is certainly measurable and IMO rather easy to, if only when applying it to yourself when you're past your prime (I know I am).

And jumping from that rather easy to establish fact to a perception of time going faster is not exactly a stretch.

In short ... unless they've invented new ways to measure the deterioration of the brain with age and accurately correlate it with information processing capabilities, I'm not seeing much of an insight from this article.
I have 3 U2F devices. My wife has 2. For any U2F logins we have, we have enrolled all of our dongles in each login.

At least one of each of our devices is always stored at home in a safe place, where we store other valuable documents. If either of us lose one device, we will buy a new U2F dongle, enroll the new dongle, and unenroll the old lost/missing/stolen dongle from each of the services we use.

You can't backup a U2F dongle but so far everywhere I've enrolled to use one it always recommends you enroll at least 2 and keep one in a safe place.
My suspicious / theory is that Intel needed the hybrid design for Mobile, otherwise there is no way to keep up with AMD in terms of pref / watt. So they basically throw this hybrid design on desktop as test bed before launching it on Mobile.
Huh, I just assumed that the US would have any financial instrument that was available elsewhere. I guess the same US statutory intervention into the mortgage market, that makes long fixed-rate mortgages possible, also makes it difficult to have custom mortgage instruments?
I have history of diabetes in my family ( south asian) I took the 23andME test and the report said i have a pre-disposition to diabetes at around age 50. I am 50 now. I have been working out running most of my life but started doin less miles and i packed on a few pounds maybe i was like 188-192 and i am 5' 11" About 2 years ago i was diagnosed with pre-diabetes the doctor said you need to get you A1-C down. I was like i have been working out all my life and now this! ok so i started looking into IF ( found some good videos by Dr Jason Fung) so i tried it and started not having breakfast ( I was eating a chocolate croissant from trader joes typically) i went black coffee. Giving up breakfast was damn hard after 6 months i got used to it so the next jump was giving up lunch i got hunger pangs and it was very very painful NOT to eat lunch but to my surprise i got used to NOT eating lunch and fast forward 2 years today i fast all day and my first meal is 5pm and usually a big salad and i feel fantastic all the hunger pangs are gone now i don't know how to explain it but water is sweeter and even black coffee taste sweet to me i am down to like 170 now and have an unusual mental clarity from NOT eating i know it sounds funny but i just do. Headaches go away. IF worked for me and i tell all my friends to at least try it and if you don't feel better than stop. SO I eat around 5pm and last meal and maybe a snack around 9pm. I don't eat after 9pm until the next day 5pm. Next goal is to try a 48 hour fast wish me luck. I feel f-in fantastic! -2cents.

I think that's accurate. And historically, there's been more moral opprobrium directed at mercenaries than those who fight for a country.
VI is modal text editor (think JEdit). Emacs is IDE (think Eclipse).

Vim can be upgraded to IDE with plugins, and Emacs can be downgrade to a plain text editor, so they are comparable, but their primary goals are different: Vim focus is on editing of text, while Emacs focus is on integration of editor with tools.

If you need a development environment, then forget about Vim, JEdit, nano, pico, etc. If you need just a text editor, then forget about Emacs, Eclipse, Idea, VSCode, etc.
Yup, this is a hard requirement for me. When someone says they pay competitively or market rate, it's usually low. When someone pays well and doesn't give numbers, it means they're stupid (to pay well and not pitch it) or they're underpaying someone quietly, which is a red flag.

The processes are usually too long to go through without a given number.

> I'm curious why they have so many more physical registers than... logical? registers

Register renaming allows instructions to be executed out-of-order [1] which allows for more instruction throughput.

This goes back to 1967 and to the IBM 360/91 with its 4 floating point registers. That's not many registers but Moore's law was making more transistors available. The problem was how to use these transistors to get more throughput from existing programs without changing the ISA and (potentially) breaking compatibility.

The solution was Tomasulo's algorithm [2] which allowed (few) architectural registers to be renamed to (many) physical registers.

original renamed reordered
mov RAX, 1 mov PHYS1, 1 mov PHYS1, 1; mov RAX, [RCX]
add RBX, RAX add RBX, PHYS1 add RBX, PHYS1
mov RAX, [RCX] mov RAX, [RCX]

The first and third instructions can be executed at the same time on independent functional units. The third is out-of-order with respect to the second.

This is a key, I think. If you live somewhere that has no common space and nowhere to walk (which is most of US housing) you "need" the larger space of your own because you have nothing of any value available to you (unless you are willing to get in a car and navigate the hellscape of suburban sprawl that isolates these types of housing developments from each other and from any amenities).

It's a "tragedy of the commons" kind of scenario, since the more of this kind of living there is the worse the traffic gets and the more isolated everything gets from each other by stroads and walls of traffic.

Despite the article's suggestion that there's money to be made here I am doubtful that developers are going to be taking the risk. They have a formula that works and they are glad to keep running it. I guess at some point commutes get so bad that something has to give somewhere, but if anything the "remote first" revolution seems to just encourage more sprawl, since you don't need to live near where you work.
800m2 is 8600 square feet. Thats easily less than 1% of houses in the US. The average house in the US probably less than 2500 sqft (232 m2).
>So, Tesla Cybertruck and Tesla FSD are also vaporware, yes?

The parent comment revealed the marketing sleight-of-hand, didn't it? The Cybertruck can be "ordered", therefore it's not vapourware. It doesn't matter that the vehicle doesn't actually exist and the order involves a tiny, refundable deposit.
This my friend is a deeper problem in our society, not limited to web design. Literally everything sucks if you look at it with a certain pragmatic and utilitarian lens. It's optimized for marketing. We're deranged, confused and unable to function properly - our eyesight has just been limited to quarterly earnings. Our ancestors from 1950s would be appalled at the state of current products and services.

@cryptica in the human realm, like attracts like. If you want different kinds of friends, you'll need to be a different kind of friend. And if you're good with the types of friends you describe, no judgment from me at all, go with that and enjoy what you have while it lasts. No friendship is permanent as death is a certainty. Said with love.

Lots of evidence shows that if you fast you lose fat before you lose muscle. One exception to this is if you have a low caloric intake mostly from carbohydrates. I am not a doctor but what I understood was that when you eat carbs it puts your body in a mode of storing it as fat but if you remove the carbs it tells the body to pull from fat stores.

I think fission and nuclear waste are problems that technology can solve. However, the desire of the country to continue to operate old methods and not invest to raise the standards of these processes is like Nevada not so long ago contracting for a coal plant, sadly behind the times. The West does not have extra water to risk. We need new better facilities and investment in nuclear that keeps the environment safe and clean for the country's residents.
I know there have been multiple threads on this general theme in the past, but time has sped up enough that I can't remember what they were, and it's not the easiest thing to search for. Anybody?
Mmmm, how much of the electric side is actually serviceable? I think you're confusing e-bikes with regular bikes. The electric side is probably entirely off limits to people and what you're experiencing is the vestigial aspects of the regular bike underneath.
To google? Other than it being the default search engine, highly doubt.

And those “home calls” are nothing more than calls like whether you are on the public internet, whether a new update is available and other mundane things.
You generally don't need to use the country code. The pool's DNS setup is usually smart enough to give you back servers who are fairly local to you based on your location, assuming your DNS server is fairly local to you.

If you're a vendor of a software or device who want to use the NTP Pool, you're asked to get a "vendor zone" which will have your name in the FQDNs used for accessing the pool. The cost to do this is fairly reasonable, much cheaper than running your own NTP infrastructure (I've done it for a former employer).
I've not seen this in other responses, but an answer to your question is every logical register adds overhead to context switching by the operating system.

The OS has to store and load all registers whenever it decides to switch which thread is processing. 100 more logical registers means 100 more locations the OS has to keep track of.

This is part of the reason why new SIMD instruction sets need OS support before you can start using them.
Excellent article. One of the best examples I have seen of this is an instructional wood worker named Steve Ramsey. He has excellent content on Youtube but almost every video he makes has a call to action to buy his complete video sets on his website. And, for me at least, it worked! I knew I'd be getting excellent content beyond the scope of what was available on Youtube (eg, complete with PDF plans, cut lists etc) and he charged a very fair one-off fee, not a Youtube recurring subscription.

And now, his viewership is drying up due to changes in the Youtube algorithm (and his lack of posting, caused by the algorithm preferring a style of video he's just not interested in). But he is moving a lot of content to Tik Tok and other platforms, and continues to drive viewers to his own kingdom.
Normally we downweight articles like that off the front page, but the thread is surprisingly better.

3yrs no questions asked warranty (at least in EVGA's case). There's considerable value there - in some cases surpassing the value of the card itself. What's interesting is EVGA now requires you to register the purchase date and location along with a scan of the physical receipt.
Immutable by default can still be a strict superset of JS. It just requires treating const assignments and function parameters as Readonly (or ReadonlyArray/ReadonlyMap/ReadonlySet) and introducing a Mutable type/mutable keyword.

In my own personal projects I make nearly everything immutable at the type level and, while it makes my code safer it’s an enormous pain in the butt to type readonly on every property. As a matter of habit it has one other benefit though: you never have to worry about accepting `as const` values in function calls.
Here's a draft of the summary that will be in next week's Orbital Index:

Last Thursday, at the request of NASA, the NSF, and other science agencies, NASEM released their astronomy and astrophysics decadal survey for the 2020s. Following a decade of exoplanet discovery, the report’s top recommendation was for development of a space telescope significantly larger than Hubble that could directly image habitable zone exoplanet atmospheres in both IR and optical wavelengths to search for biosignatures. This telescope, to launch in the early 2040s, would be neither HabEx or LUVOIR, two proposed next-generation telescopes, but something in between. They also recommend development of a very high resolution X-ray mission and a far-infrared mission. To enable these efforts, and avoid the delays and overruns of missions like the JWST, they recommend establishing a ‘Great Observatories Mission and Technology Maturation Program’ as a new approach for planning and implementing large missions. “The program would provide early investment in technology development for multiple mission concepts to lower the risks and costs of projects before they become too complex, large, and costly.” Decadal surveys have real impact: the 1980s decadal survey resulted in the Chandra X-ray Observatory (20 years later); the 90s survey resulted in the Spitzer Space Telescope; the 2000s resulted in the James Webb Space Telescope (finally launching next month!); and, the 2010s pushed forward WFIRST & LSST, both under active development. Other recommendations from last week’s release include the development of a regulatory framework to control the impacts of satellite constellations on astronomy; changes to funding to increase research and promote diversity; continued development of ground-based gravitational wave observatories; a focus on multi-messenger astrophysics; program management changes with NSF innovation and facility funding; and, continued investment in large ground-based telescopes, such as the U.S. Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), a next generation ground-based cosmic microwave background experiment, the Next Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) radio telescope, and the IceCube-Generation 2 neutrino observatory.

I discovered one thing about my hearing that, I think, implies the same thing this article is talking about. When we hear a quick sequence of distinct sounds, like a ringing bell for instance, depending on how fast one sound follows the other we may be aware of each individual sound or perceive everything as a blur. Now what I observed is that the threshold between “individual sounds” and “blurry” is determined by the brain, not by the physics of sound. Our brains have a “clock speed” which limits the “sample rate” for our perception of reality.

I suspect that the internal clock slows down as we age. That wouldn’t affect our perception of the speed of physical events, because those are relative to each other, but it would reduce the ratio of physical events per “clock cycles”, giving us the sensation of a shrinking of the time dimension. The past becomes more “blurry”, so to speak.

Solved by Tesla building EVs to million-mile specs. Between lasting 3-4x longer with few repairs, and gas savings over long usage, TCO is far less than ICE.

Running numbers, I'm seeing a "Tri+FSD" Cybertruck paying for itself at 410,000 miles just in gas savings, then amounting to a free second vehicle over the next >400,000 miles. That should make the frugal overcome "right to repair" issues.
Not necessarily. Even if productivity isn't increasing in your business, as other sectors increase their productivity, the opportunity cost of the labour grows, so even with the same productivity, you would expect the cost of labour to rise, to compete with other more productive things the worker could be doing.
In a capitalist society, when you find something that people are willing to spend above average on, there's usually no shortage of providers trying to produce it. Why isn't that happening in this case?
Python loses cred in FP circles for being rather opinionated against FP. Map/filter being second-class to list comprehensions, reduce and partial being in functools, and no multi-line lambdas are the obvious/well-known examples of this, but more generally python has first class functions but doesn't make creating and manipulating functions ergonomic.
I disagree, I like JavaScript
Additionally, often there is only a single kingdom for a given type of audience. One can't simply migrate to another kingdom, and it's very difficult to create a new, viable kingdom.

One of the ways these kinds of problems could be addressed could be through laws that limit the speed and the degree to which monopolistic platforms can unilaterally change their terms and conditions. Other kinds of laws could help protect creators that earn a living through these platforms, such as laws mandating a certain rudimentary level of customer service for money-making creators. Hopefully these kinds of laws would reduce the number of horror stories where a platform simply decided to ignore a creator's customer service request to the point where they lost their source of income, oftentimes due to a technical problem caused by the platform itself, and which the platform was unwilling to have an actual human look into.

Safety is one aspect. Pedestrian crash tests require body panels that are a minimum of ~2.5" out from any crash structure in the car. Plus regulations on things like minimum headlight height, etc.

The other is that adding size to a vehicle adds very little to the cost to produce a car, but it makes the vehicle so much more functional and appealing to buyers. In most of the USA, vehicle size is not a constraint. So the size of one's vehicle is mostly personal preference. And bigger = more useful.
