Serverless is an absolutely awesome solution for certain kinds of problems (e.g., asynchronous event routing, among many many others). But if you find yourself wondering how to deal with cold-start times, or how to deal with a very long running call, then you have probably strayed down the wrong path.
Fines should be a deterrent and not just cost of business. It seems we have reached a point where large companies can do shady stuff, make lots of money, pay a fraction of that as fine and nothing else happens. So they will keep doing it.
You claim: "they are under instructions directly from Chesa Boudin"

Article you linked says: Absolutely nothing to support this

You claim: "His DA office is only trying ~50% of crimes compared to other major cities"

Article you linked says: The charging rate was completely unchanged when Boudin became DA.

If you are going to make an outrageous claim that "they are under instructions directly from Chesa Boudin" you have to provide evidence that this is true, otherwise it will appear to be a lie.
When the CDC released the statement that you could mix, my dad (a physician) was a bit upset. I remember him telling me that they seem to have based that on a single paper that had a sample size far too small to generalize for the different combinations of vaccines, age groups, genders, and races.
My concern is that v4 may never be decommissioned. Sure, v6 could become predominant, but fundamentally there being two separate protocols running in parallel is a failed migration.

On a much smaller scale it's analogous to migrating from mariadb to postgres, but the migration takes 50 years and you end up realistically maintaining both.
Probably something like you see in visual programming for kids training type things.
I see people downvoting this, but while it may not be artfully phrased it's absolutely true. There are countless small projects which fell by the wayside because they didn't get enough users to build a true community (e.g., "Ted," a "Rich Text Processor" that was, about 20 years ago, my favorite WYSIWYG-ish open source word processor) -- and even some relatively big name ones that were created by one company that just didn't get traction when the company stopped supporting them. Google Wave was already mentioned in the comments on this artlce and it counts; another one was the company I was at in the mid-2010s: RethinkDB. AFAIK, there's only been one minor release since the company folded and I think that release was the one that was "in progress" when the doors shut.

Zulip seems like it's in a much better place to survive, taking the word of the article, with an active development community around it. (I don't think I've actually heard of Zulip after the original company was bought by Dropbox, although "whether chipotle_coyote has heard of this" is admittedly not a leading indicator of success.)
what did y'all vote for??
> Tesla's "FSD" has the "capability to drive a vehicle without the active physical control or monitoring by a human operator," but it does not yet have the capability to do so safely. Hence the human drivers. And the testing. On public roads. In California. For which the state has a specific law. That Tesla is not following.

I couldn't find it spelled out in the article what portions of the law Tesla is not following. But upon reading it[0] it is clear Tesla could not possibly comply. There are requirements such as reporting in advance which roads the cars will be tested on. (I assume saying "all roads" would be a non-starter with the DMV.) And each test-driver needs an individual permit. So if it is found that Tesla's FSD falls under this law, they have to disable or severely limit FSD in California.

I found the argument in the article quite strong that indeed FSD falls under that law. So I'm wondering what will happen next. Will the California DMV dare anger those who sunk money into FSD? Or will the DMV just turn a blind eye until there's a crash with a stroller and that will force them to act?

Well this is just an ad. At glance looks like an airflow knock off.
From your source, gas was an average of ~2.40 on jan 20th. Rite after biden gets in gas spikes, peaking around 3.40 end of october. Now it's around 3.20. Still up by 80c nationally. But CNN is saying "gas is going down" trying to give biden a favorable image, instead of saying "Gas is still way up because of the ESG policies of the biden administration"
Yeah I'm pretty familiar with most keyboard offerings. I'm just not keen on the Atreus' lack of a surrounding case/the key caps themselves being the edge. I know it's only an atheistic quibble but I guess I'm fussy like that.

I sometimes wonder what is the fundamental distinction between a callback-based API and this wakeup-based task API. I guess the main difference is that in a callback you generally provide the result as an argument whereas with a wakeup-based API you just wake the task and it has to look for the result in some stored state somewhere.

But ultimately both of them take the "rest of the computation"/continuation and store it somewhere (i.e. on some sleeping task/callback list) to be awakened/invoked later.
So, I look at climate change, division and gridlock in the world's great democracies, as well as social issues and unrest.

Despite all of our wonderful technological and scientific advances, our basic problems still involve moral division and disagreement.

This is in harmony with what the Bible predicted.

Commenting on our intellectual capacity: "there is nothing that they may have in mind to do that will be impossible for them"

Commenting on our moral situation: "men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money...not open to any agreement"

So, the Bible's thesis seems very accurate to me.

We have unlimited scientific and engineering ability.

But very limited ability to create harmony.

That's why prejudice, jingoism, injustice, racism, and numerous other issues are stubbornly difficult to get rid of.

But since the Bible's thesis is correct, I believe its proposed solution is likely correct as well.
This is basically them trying to fix the money printer in a way that doesn't involve turning off the money printer.
In the case of covid vaccines there's plenty of real world data and lots of governments, universities, etc. running different studies all the time. Pfizer would be stupid to fake some initial data because it would be very quickly found out once real world results didn't stack up. For example, this thread you're commenting in is about research from a prestigious London university which found 3 jabs provides better protection than 2.

It wouldn't shock me at all to find out examples of pharma companies including Pfizer acting that way, but in this particular case of Covid vaccines there is evidence and plenty of reason to believe that it's not the case and you don't have any counter evidence, so no it's not a reasonable opinion it's just a conspiracy theory.
Every State has the obligation to look after its own citizens. Otherwise, we should organize into a state that will as no other state will look after us. Can I go to Brazil or Russia and say, hey Russia, hey Brazil, you know, I'm neither Russian nor Brazilian and I didn't contribute anything to your country nor my did my ancestors, but I'd like some of your pie.

Also, we can't cry "wages have been stagnant since the 70s" and also want to continue ex-patriating jobs and ability to command better pay.
Laughing over these examples I had an epiphany: we need more of this, all the time.

If half the articles someone looked at were clear satire, people would have to think about what they are reading and who the source is. (Analogous to how we are being trained to recognize phishing)

For those that can’t figure out what satire is, A/B test content until we discover empirically how stupid something has to be before even they realize it is satire.

They’ll still sell FSD, they just won’t offer the beta functionality in (or if you traverse) California due to “regulatory constraints.” They’ll continue to run FSD beta testing in 49 other states.

In similar fashion, Autopilot has tighter operational constraints in parts of Europe versus the US.

At my last company we had an open rebellion against using Zulip for at least two years, before the product team budgeted for slack enterprise and the engineering team switched to that for DMs, although formal communication still happened through zulip to appease our VP.

The mac client was never fast, search was neigh impossible to use across 7 years of messages and there were frequent issues with client stability and drop outs. More than once I've seen someone "mark all messages as read" and cause the service to crash. "Is zulip down?" was a sort of running joke among the engineers.

I wouldn't turn down a job solely based upon their reliance on a tool like Zulip, but it would definitely be a factor in my decision.
Yes. One of the assumptions of the Ideal Gas Law is that particles don’t interact with each other or even collide with each other. They only collide with the walls of the container.

So if the ideal gas law was true then a heat pump wouldn’t be able to refrigerate anything. When the gas would expand, the volume would go up, pressure would go down, and temperature would remain the same because there wouldn’t be any reason for the gas particles to slow down (because under the ideal gas law the particles don’t interact with eachother).

He hasn't declared yet, but that's mainly only because being a declared candidate would put restrictions on how he can fundraise and what he can spend those funds on. He'll either run, or he'll anoint a successor and guarantee them a primary win.
To remember that normal people from our own social circles get infected and usually survive just fine. Rather than pretending that every infection is an overweight, anti-vaxxer, etc. who dies immediately after destroying the local medical facilities. I think both sides of the severity discussion would benefit from keeping the human consequences in mind, whether they are more or less severe than imagined.

As a nerd in a building trying to build things to save lives from disease (“cure” is too strong a word), there are explicit ethics reviews my work has to go through, with an almost bizarre frequency, so I disagree with this statement specifically. Otherwise, I enjoyed your comment.
Ok I will post a reply here + do “show hn” or some such…
In that company we used Streamlit for demoing our solutions to our business clients.

We used CNNs to make a list of visually similar products to end users. Before deploying that, we used Streamlit to demo the client.

The backend was run on AWS, and we used GPU for inference.

If the client said that our results were satisfactory, then we would simply store the data in a DB (using PostgreSQL), and that will be used to show similar products to end users (consumers), and here no GPU or Streamlit was involved.

This Streamlit demo was a core part of our (B2B) business.

I have also used Streamlit for a public frontend receiving thousands of hits per hour with multiple GPUs for inference. It could tackle that.

> my conclusion is that you can do a few simple things super easily, but you hit a wall when you want to have anything beyond basic navigation and layout

That's the reason Streamlit was used. We did not need a very customisable frontend. When we needed that, we passed that to our webdev team who used Js +// Vue/React +// Django/Flask.

You use Streamlit when you don't need a very custom interface. You use it so that you can very quickly prototype something.
And actually what matters isn't the daily libor fixing, it is the fixings used for the future expiries, 4 times a year. I believe that's the ones that were heavily manipulated (by some faction of a basis point but on huge notionals), because you hedge with a single future exposures over a number of dates.

It is rather the impact on every day borrowers that was tiny. First they would have to be unlucky enough to have their libor fixing falling on one of these 4 dates, even if it did, the impact would likely be a rounding error.
Ok I update the reply here when I have something to share !
Do you seriously think that 20 cars are more economic than a single bus?

Python performance problems are exaggerated for many use-cases (hot paths are not written in Python e.g., matching regexes happens in C code(re,regex), parsing xml too (elementtree, lxml), sqlite, numpy,scipy (C, Fortran), etc. Cython makes it trivial to drop to C level where necessary)
> I would imagine you can add an F key layer pretty easily so this shouldn't be a big deal

That may be the case, but the issue I have with this is that I need, often enough, to press random F keys while not actively using the keyboard. Like for example refresh HN while eating an apple (F5). It's a pain to have to press multiple keys.
SF could just build a lot more housing, and that would essentially solve the problems many lament: https://techcrunch.com/2014/04/14/sf-housing/
Sure, but just compress and encrypt. It won't play in place, but otherwise it's nondetectable (other than by out of band timing/metadata or very rough size estimates).
But Renault and Dacia are not on the same level of tech. Dacia literally uses stripped "hand-me-downs" from old Renault models, i.e. everything where any R&D is long paid of. So of course they are cheap.

Dacia certainly didn't get that one star because it includes any assistive systems (it does not). It is just slightly bigger so the protection of the occupants in the cabin is naturally better than in the cramped Zoe.
DAO Leadership Principles
The impetus for the term was supposedly that people kept being confused the distinction between free as in beer and free as in freedom/libre. However, to your point, one suspects that some prominent people like Tim O'Reilly latched onto "open source" as a less ideologically-aligned term.

Great comments. Completely agree. Third party validation for something like this really goes a long way.
> It seems like you have to get lucky or do a lot of research. Or both.

Yep, no question here. While Linux compatibility has gotten a lot better in recent years, you're definitely rolling the dice a bit in driver-land if you don't research beforehand.

That said, since pretty much every big distro is free, it's not necessarily a bad idea to just download it and try it out, at least with a Live USB Ubuntu image or something. If it works out of the box, then maybe you should install it, and if it doesn't, just unplug the flash drive and restart the computer and stick with Windows. It's entirely possible (and even likely these days) that it will Just Work (tm), and that might influence your decision in switching.

> But there's probably no point at which Linux will work well on all hardware

Yes and no; I think Linux tends to do exceptionally well on older hardware. I've been able to breath life into decade-old computers by just installing Linux Mint with MATE desktop [1], and generally by the time a computer is designated as "old", drivers on Linux are often better than they are on Windows, and due to how stupidly customizable Linux has become, you can get extremely lightweight desktops that require basically nothing to run (e.g. LXDE, MATE).

On newer hardware? Eh, as I said, you're rolling the dice a bit. Generally if you stick with AMD hardware, you are fine, as I said, but that's by no means guaranteed, and to me getting WiFi to work out of the box is the scariest thing, since if you cannot get connected to the internet, it's difficult to fix any of the problems.

[1] I did this for my grandmother who is still running an old AMD64 single-core computer. All she uses it for is browsing the web and checking email (not even YouTube) and she refuses to buy a new computer. Linux Mint has been a godsend.
If fact checking is bad, why are you wrapping it in quotation marks? Is there a difference between fact checking and "fact checking" implied here, and if so, what is that difference? Please elaborate.
I guess a better response to this is that I don't use generics a lot when writing Go, but I probably use a lot of packages where they would have been incredibly useful.
The hash should load the /hacks/ page and then scroll to the element with the "youtubedown" id. This works in every browser from like the last decade... or two.
FYI, it's normal for people living together to not infect each other even without vaccines. SAR has only ever been in the range of 10%-20% ish. Also vaccines haven't managed to alter that.[1] When my girlfriend got COVID (pre-vaccines) she was unable to infect me despite that we were quarantined together for 10 days in close contact, made no effect to reduce contact and she was even cooking for me whilst coughing over the food.

[1] "In the UK it was described that secondary attack rates among household contacts exposed to fully vaccinated index cases was similar to household contacts exposed to unvaccinated index cases (25% for vaccinated vs 23% for unvaccinated)"

All facts begin as observations. Not all observations are facts.

All I'm saying is that the media operates on the level of "observations." That doesn't mean that some of those observations are not facts, just that the verification process that makes an observation a fact is outside the domain of media.
I think you're a bit confused about the basic idea.

> every node already has?

No every node doesn't already have it. That's the point. One node computes on behalf of everyone.

> you'd still need the capacity to run lots of compilations along not-yet-optimized code during startup

Well no - nodes also have interpreters so they don't wait. And it's not any slower for someone else to run the compilation on your behalf - the result comes in the same time. And most code doesn't change between redeploys so doesn't need to be recompiled.
How did you get to your estimation of 45-50%? That sounds waaaaay too large.
Used to work in Healthcare, we'd use Computrace which operated at the motherboard firmware level. It can remotely brick a device and also automatically manage installing additional payloads in Windows once an internet connection was formed.
My concern with this keyboard and others without F keys would be how awkward some IntelliJ keyboard shortcuts would be

Switched to Zulip from Slack and then Teams and LOVE it.

We did a ton of research into what team messenger we could use and, frankly, I have no idea what could be a better alternative to Zulip.

Discord forces to use one account everywhere, Slack sucks for search and threads and causes too much noise and clutter, Teams , well we are still recovering from the emotional and productivity damaged it caused. What else is there?
“Fact checking” makes sense when “whitelisting” content, i.e. the New Yorker deciding that only verifiable facts are publishable. It makes no sense for “blacklisting” content where everything is presumed OK. It inherently assumes that Facebook can ascertain the factual truth of something which is just not true.
For most people, Facebook is the only place where they can stay in touch with their family and friends. My friends and family are not and never will be on mastodon or diaspora or anything like that.

Also, private special interest groups on Facebook are really excellent. There's nothing else like it. Sub Reddits are good for anonymous/psuedonymous general discussion, but for actually meeting and interacting with people who share your interests, and especially for sharing pictures/videos, I haven't seen anything better than Facebook. I'm a member of several music related Facebook groups - they get far more high quality participation (and fewer flame-wars) than comparable old-school web forums.
I don’t understand why this is news worthy. You could replace “Vaccine Makers” with almost any sector as well…
One of the standard patterns is airflow and kubernetes executor and then the pod can do whatever. There's the occasional side effect and some setup but more or less it works as advertised.
What's talent got to do with it?
Since you're here, and the online docs are currently missing, do you know the best way to a stacktrace from a failed Chai assertion? Basically, if I do:

import chai from 'chai';
chai.config.includeStack = true;
try {
chai.expect(1).to.equals(2);
} catch (e) {
console.log(e.stack);
}

In the REPL, I'm getting `e` as an AssertionError with a trace, but in my running code, the error is coming back as a vanilla object without a stacktrace. Sorry that this is clearly not the right forum for this kind of question.
Yeah I don't know they have a good solution - but based on his analysis, more honest marketing (e.g. stop claiming things like "Drivers are only there to meet a legal requirement, the car will drive itself!") might be enough to stay on the right side of the line.
> "Will this product still exist and be responsibly maintained in a few years?" / This question is harder to answer than it might seem. A publicly-traded company may be unlikely to go out of business, but large companies (e.g., Google, Microsoft, Atlassian) routinely abandon products. A startup that has raised a flashy round of VC funding may soon (like Quill) be acquired with the intent to shut down its product, or go out of business altogether. The safest products on this front are likely large open-source projects with a broad community, like Python, Linux, or PostgreSQL.

Enterprise software companies also generally provide long-term support and backward compatibility. Look at Microsoft and Windows. OS/2 by IBM, first released 1987, flopped in the marketplace. IBM supported it for ~20 years, then licensed others to support it.

People often reject the added expense of enterprise software, but you get what you pay for.
You know your product is good when the US sanctions you, they don't ban all of your products from imports.

I used it for chat and automated notifications related to a git workflow, both the repos and chat were self-hosted. It was far less polished than Slack (and Slack was not that polished back then). But fine for that purpose. In less tech centric environments the rough edges are more bothersome.
Even better is my experience in the project were I work now and were for the first time we are working to remove redux.

The idea that Meta does any meaningful fact-checking would be a hilarious joke if it weren't such a shameless insult to real fact-checkers
