Ask HN: How to play virtual audio on Windows hosted on Google Cloud?
I am renting a Windows compute engine (gcloud) with desktop access.

I have installed VB-Audio cable on the remote Windows desktop -> https://vb-audio.com/Cable/index.htm (hosted on Azure Virtual Desktop)

I have Clubdeck/Clubhouse installed to listen to it.

My remote system sound input and output is set to the virtual devices.

This works on my local Windows installation but does not work on my remote desktop.

Has anyone had experience with this? Any pointers or triggers?

Will pay you with love and fresh air if you can help me.
Fair enough. I actually wish more people do that and stick to FAANG.

My model vehicle with cameras and heaters in the mirror and your regular HID headlights cost nearly the same $600-$700 depending on the oem retailer website (not dealer).

If this was the smart headlights that angled in the newer model of my vehicle then it would have been $1000 plus.

That’s a great, practical point. One anecdote about smart kids though: i knew a number of very smart boys growing up who got bored at school and checked out for that reason, and life didn’t work out great for them - nor did society benefit from the very positive productivity they might have been capable of. I think they’d have done better with appropriate challenges.

>And it's important to understand how inefficient this is to need a car to cross the street; you need parking space on this side, parking space on the other side, you need to get on and off the stroad, causing wear, interfering with and slowing down the other traffic, which is mostly through traffic that's not interested at all in your house or that Korean market. It's unbelievably inefficient.

But is this inefficiency and resultant drag on prosperity balanced out by making the market more efficient to access for people up and down the road?

If he had to cross the tracks to get to the market you could basically come up with the same list of gripes. Naive analysis like that is not useful.
I understand your context 100% as I am an African currently living in Europe.

Consider an analog. Say you wanted to design an image compression format in the spirit of jpeg, so you take a bunch of 8x8 blocks of image data and you use a principal component analysis to design an optimal orthogonal transformation to apply to 8x8 blocks to compact their energy into fewer coefficients so you can compress it.

But collecting lots of image data is hard so someone comes along and points out that the most important characteristic of your images is that they're appear drawn from an autoregressive process... That is that each pixel is (say) 95% correlated to the pixel 1 away, 95%^2 to the pixel two away, 95^3 three away and so on. So to compute the PCA you only need the covariance matrix anyways, so you just generate an AR0.95 covariance matrix and use the transform derived from that. And you find this works pretty well too.

This work is along those likes, they're generating random images with some simple natural-like statistical properties and training the first part of the classifier using them and getting useful results.

One interesting promising part is that this line of thinking may result in better network designs or insights that allow skipping training these initial layers: Going back to the block transform example, the next step would be to notice that the PCA of the AR0.95 matrix is the discrete cosign transformation, which is agreeable to an extremely efficient implementation.

I was very much ‘into’ computer security around the turn of the century, when this film was released, and it totally amazed me with the fact it had no strange FUI “future interfaces” or unrecognisable technology. It was all grounded on the technology stacks I recognised from the time. There was Linux and Gnome and various key-presses and other technical aspects made sense.

There was a believable tech company. There were believable tech company employees.

NFTs and F-NFTs throwing the traditional music market off balance
The music industry has been in a state of upheaval for the past decade. The arrival of streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music has disrupted conventional models, bringing artists to a broader audience while eroding profit margins for labels and musicians. Artists are becoming frustrated with unfair royalty rates, limited resources for marketing, and data mining by third-party companies that profit from their hard work.

Now, we're starting to see a similar effect with cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. NFTs are a new technology that could potentially be applied to the problem of making music profitable again.

Jonathan Blow's talk 'Preventing the Collapse of Civilization' goes into detail about how technology can regress, with the Mechanism being one example. This kind of thing is far more common than we think, most would be surprised to learn that Ancient Greece had writing for about 600 years before forgetting it. There was no writing in Greece for over 400 years, until they adopted the Phoenician alphabet around 730 BC.

He compares this situation to the state of software development today. It's a sobering watch.

Such irony in the fact they do that.
Just think abput all the knowledge that was lost over the centuries and millenia of human civilization.

Who are we to think that our technology is the greatest and the most advanced on this planet? We have no conclusive evidence to claim such titles.

Ancient people have drawings of strange creatures and devices that descend from the heavens. Even the Pyramids show signs of advanced engineering, such as deep tunnels and chambers beneath layers of limestone and rocks. These structures were neccessary for survival under the scorching sun during the summer. During winter's cold nights, rocks provided good thermal isolation. We now know of huge chambers and hallways carved deep into the Pyramids. Maybe they were used as gathering places, with many chambers providing shelter and comfort?

Who knows. Only couple of years earlier we thought to know everything about ancient Greece. Then this happened.

> If you put credit card, do chargeback and put your card on hold.

I'm sorry, but this is poor advice.

As per the Visa website, definition of a chargeback:

"A chargeback (otherwise known as a dispute) is a way for your bank that issued your card to reclaim money from the retailer’s bank when you do not get the goods or services you paid for, including if the retailer or supplier has gone out of business."

Therefore:

- If the cardholder knowingly signed up to AWS, then this is not a vaild reason for a chargeback.
- If the cardholder knowingly activated chargeable AWS services, then this is not a vaild reason for a chargeback.
- If AWS delivered the activated chargeable AWS services as requested, then this is not a valid reason for a chargeback.
- In AWS case, did the cardholder take sufficient steps to secure their account (most banks these days have a security clause in their agreements).

The correct and only way to solve this is through entering discussions with AWS. And, if you are insistent on spending money on lawyers, don't waste the lawyer's time on card chargebacks, get the lawyer to engage with AWS Legal instead.

Don't abuse / misuse credit card chargebacks. It only ends up making life more difficult for the rest of us because the only thing that will happen is banks and card issuers will make people jump through even more hoops to "prove it".

Right?

Logs are streams, not files. To a first approximation, you should just log to standard out, and let another system take care of sending your output to either a file (with rotation) or logstash, or syslog, or a whatever else is appropriate. To a second approximation (if you’re already using stdout for something else), the thing you’re logging to should still be a file descriptor, but not a file per se. (perhaps a local socket to a logging system like syslog.)

I don’t need everything on my system that logs, to invent its own log output directory, and implement its own log rotation. That’s how you get a mishmash of different places where logs end up living, and they become very difficult to collate or compare, etc.
They shouldn't exist if the null hypothesis hold true, so this is evidence against the null hypothesis, aka the official history.

This shouldn't surprise you neither, but that depends on your null hypothesis ;)
The governing body and related stakeholders care at varying levels. For government-sponsored research, the primary metrics are publications, impact factor, number and prestige of collaborations, diversity of staff, and velocity of money (see [1] for an example, pages 3-4). At the most cynical level it kind of reduces to welfare for educated people. The end result is that there are researchers producing good work, but you have to filter to find them.

For external industry funders, they have a strong and vested interest in identifying good output before it is public. The strategy here typically is a mixture of identifying good researchers and making them kings (consistent funding, direct lines of communication, access to nonpublic materials, etc), and of placing lots of small investments to get in the room for discussion. An example of this mixture is the BP deal at UC Berkeley [2].

As for shifting standard of care, this is a commonly-expressed goal but often the research is far enough away that the individuals doing the work lack close communication with the actual practitioners. Some institutes are trying to resolve this by close physical and social proximity (e.g. TU Dresden's medical campus) but this is far from the norm.

Ask HN: Are you interested in a service like Heroku on your own cloud account?
Hi, we know how much easier it is to use a PaaS service like Heroku, but it's too expensive compared to using the cloud provider directly.

Now, are you interested in a service that does the same but on your own cloud platform and charges you a flat fee? Also support AWS,GCP,Azure and DigitalOcean.

As I said, all kinds of shortcuts would be taken. Video games only render what is in your field of view. How do video games know precisely what to show you when you look back? The computer has all the physics equations and what you see is just a function of your field of view at that frame in time. So the microscopic world is not physically operating, it is simulated using some heuristics and upon observation the generated microbes are saved to memory. Outer space is empty. When we look out with the Hubble telescope, galaxies are procedurally generated and saved to memory. Once again, only the minimal visual representation is needed. The actual planets and asteroids would only be generated on observation, etc.

> studies

We already know that some people are irrational, tribal, quasi-impermeable, "reasoning" to faculties that are not that of reason. It is evident under the language they use. You will find that literacy is 77% in Snowdonia and 55% in Drizzland (but 99.9% in that building): it is present and variable, and objectivity is similar.

If the poster wanted studies meaning "is the author of the article really sure": by experience and just pre-facto stochastics, some people are like that. But no, not all people are like that. And for those making (here) statements about "the inescapability of human condition and matters of degrees": the difference between the doctor and the brick is radical, even when the doctor cannot find Niue on the map and cannot cook.

Studies: of course they would be interesting, but not that different from the studies that count regional literacy, (so-called) "human development", and other similar factors. They are indicative, and normally Finland and South Sudan are contrasted, but they are also of relative worth, because (apart from the frequent difficulties in measuring the real value - e.g. do not expect a random high IQ individual to be rational, reasonable, controlled etc.) aggregation is myopic and you will not in fact be sure in the evaluation of your individual Finn or South Sudanese, using just prejudice.
