> "Übermensch" is a much more evocative word than "overman".

Try "Superman" instead.

I'm not a historian, and I've wondered whether the historical background for the comic (conceived in the early '30s I think?) included some of the racial overtones that were more pervasive at the time. I don't know how influential Darwin and Galton were scientifically at the time, but even if they weren't current in scientific circles (which I kind of doubt), certainly it's hard to ignore that the ideas were "in the water" so to speak.
EUV is Extreme Ultra Violet and is the highest end manufacturing process for silicon. DUV is Deep Ultra Violet and is used for larger node silicon. Only one company makes EUV machines and that's ASML. I think I read somewhere that ASML make about 50 EUV machines per year for companies such as TSMC, Samsung and Intel. This fire obviously disrupts production of those machines but I'm not sure if they have another factory elsewhere.
You can, and everyone always does, litigate invalidity before ITC. (I am an IP litigator who has done it.) Note that the ITC cannot itself invalidate patents like district courts do, but they can--and often do--decline to issue an exclusion order because they believe the patent at issue is invalid.

Solution:

1. Buy bluetooth headphones or the headband that comes up when you google "sleepphones".

2. Pick an audiobook or podcast which is entertaining but has no consequences to whether you remember the content or not.

3. Plug your phone in across the room after turning on the audio and starting to listen.

4. Look froward to lying down and listening and allowing yourself to drift off to sleep.

This is even easier if you have an apple watch or other smartphone-pairing watch.

Thanks - yes I could, however I was hoping to skip that and go straight to a junior role. I see grads hired for such things all the same, I guess its impossible once you're not young any more.
"Exploring How to Support"

no, they are "now looking at options to allow". There is a difference between looking for technical means of supporting some hardware versus simply _allowing_ motherboard manufacturers to Unblock support that was always there.

Since Ryzen turned out to be a success AMD started flirting with artificial market segmentation, copying Intel bad behavior verbatim. Blocking backward compatibility(/1), linking desirable and standard features with upmarket enthusiast SKUs(/2 /3), renaming Northbridge into Chipset to justify marketing lies(/3), manufacturing silly excuses(/4), being intentionally unclear about ECC.

AMD Zen CPUs are full SOCs. What they call "chipset" is just a PCIE connected Northbridge. Everything important is integrated inside CPU. pcie, ram, usb 3.0, sata, HD Audio, even RTC/SPI/I2C/SMBus and LPC are on die. You can make perfectly functional system with just an AMD CPU alone.

/1 https://www.itworldcanada.com/article/amd-zen-3-processors-w... backpedaled on this hard after backlash

/2 AMD 'Smart Access Memory' totally requiring 500-series chipset despite being just a fancy marketing name for standard 'PCI Express Resizable BAR' support. Already shipping disabled for 2 prior generations before being announced as 5000 exclusive. Enough uproar and even that crumbles a little bit https://www.extremetech.com/computing/320548-amd-will-suppor... but still linked to "chipset" while implemented entirely inside CPU.

/3 x470 was going to support PCIE 4, but then it was made x570 exclusive. https://www.anandtech.com/show/14477/amd-confirms-pcie-4-not... Despite the fact "chipset" doesnt touch PCI lines between CPU and slots. Asus is the only manufacturer with enough volume to dare break AMD ban https://www.eteknix.com/some-asus-x470-and-b450-motherboards...

/4 oh, but but the bios size limit, we cant support all the CPUs on same motherboard (like they did in Socket A days). How will we fit all this microcode, the BIOS chip is 'only' 16MB !??!?!

I agree, my last role was 25+ public holidays. They also offered holiday trading, which is a real "benefit" that should be advertised in my eyes. That allowed me to go up to 30 days annual leave + public holidays which was great. Current job is setup as unlimited with a minimum of 20 + public holidays, all in all I take about the same as I did at my last place but it's a bit less hassle to track.

Advertising 20 days + public holidays in the UK is basically advertising that you give people the minimum the law will let you.

Given ASML basically have a 100% market share in EUV, 95% market share in ArF tools, 20% in Dry tools.

I would say anyone that placed an order for EUV kit recently probably placed it with ASML....

(As per my comment on other HN thread, the "problem" is that ASML tech - EUV in particular - is lightyears ahead of any competition. AFAIK no viable competition is expected until the next decade, i.e. 2030s).
Agree, you're right.

It's just miracle that a large slow company got to that market first.
I've dealt with this enough that at this point I'm convinced all companies that do this fail to see the users through the metrics. A/B testing is overvalued.
Something I find interesting is that thoughts definitely spawn faster in my head than I can verbalize them. I wonder if you learned to think in chording if you could think faster than with sounds. And if we could, what would be the upper limit?
To add to that, markup was intended to be semantic, not for layout, and the expectation was the browser would do the right thing to present it to the user. I think you are right that they are in that early mindset before browser decided to become pixel perfect typesetting engines. Why should I tell you how wide a <paragraph> should be?!? Browser knows best if it's on a small monitor, big monitor, phone, etc. Sigh.
I don't disagree. But -

This plainly describes everyone's circumstances and experiences. That's all.
> What matters is whether consumers were defrauded by seeing a feature they bought

Nobody was defrauded.

The CPU never advertised AVX-512 support. You could never enable it “for free”. You had to disable the efficiency cores and use a BIOS where the manufacturers simply forgot to turn it off.

There is no fraud here and it’s weird to claim as much.
Yeah, completely agreed. That's why I like Zen Queries.

> If women are a group historically discriminated against by virtue of their sex (female, different physicality, different reproductive role) rather than by their gender (feminine, caring, pretty, submissive, domestic, …)

Are they? And is that the definition of gender? submissive?! It's hard to think of someone I know now, who identifies as female, who fits your definition.

And if true, what does some historical discrimination have to do with someone's personal belief of themselves? If I think I'm non-binary, does the historical reason for discrimination against women change me somehow?

And who are you or I to tell someone else what their identity is? That just seems bizarre to me.

Ironically, most people criticizing post-moderinism are using it as the mechanism of their critique - which is especially post-modernist!

Do you mind going into more detail regarding those two styles in Java? I wouldn't exactly say that Java shepherd's its programmers towards the message passing style at all.

– DUV: Deep ultraviolet, a wavelength range in the far ultraviolet. Chip production uses 248 and 193 nanometres.

– EUV: Extreme ultraviolet, the wavelength range between roughly 100 and 10 nanometres. In chip manufacture, used as an abbreviation for EUV lithography (also abbreviated EUVL), that is, lithography with light at a wavelength of 13.5 nanometres. EUV is expected to be used in production before 2020.
I'm just pointing out the semantics of the wording. I don't disagree with your points.
I'm a very casual user, but I've only used it with mp4 files straight from my phone camera and Youtube downloads.
It seems to me that just using apps but never writing them is sort of like only reading a natural language but never writing in it.
For that to work you need to be able to frame the problem as something that can be done immediately. If the problem has a blocking step, like "fill out this form, then in two weeks, check back to see if it worked," I find it much harder to see the joy in completing the task.
You pulled only the good ones. Where are the migrations named 0019_auto_20181224.py?
You spoke of the environment as your goal, and said that “any” economic option that was sustainable (presumably regarding the environment) was “infinitely” better. I gave just one example that meets your criteria that popped into my mind. If you don’t like it, then perhaps consider adjusting your original claim. You’re the one that said it would be better.
> Traces aren’t entirely free. Modern boards are densely packed and manufacturers aren’t interested in spending extra time on routing for a feature that consumers aren’t interested in anyway.

Or they just don't care because it's not already popular and unbuffered ECC RAM isn't even particularly widely available. The delta design cost of routing another 8 data lines per DIMM channel is tiny. Especially on ATX boards and other larger formats. I could see some crazy packed mini-ITX layout where this might be a bit harder, but definitely not in the normal cases.

(I've routed a rather dense 4-layer BGA credit card sized board; not exactly a motherboard, but I do have a bit of experience with this subject. It was definitely denser than a typical ATX board per layer.)
Does anyone else get a "Server Error" when trying to "register?"
Not necessarily, if you want to do non-blocking compute on client you would ideally spin off a worker thread but if not available you can periodically yield from your compute task to the event loop to avoid blocking.
mRNA Covid-19 vaccine boosters induce neutralizing immunity against Omicron
I appreciate that you're saying something that you think is only common sense,
but I suspect that is most likely because 99% of the machine learning papers
you've seen do nothing else but claim a new SOTA result on some set of
benchmarks. Yet just because that's what (almost) everyone is doing doesn't mean
it's good research. Quite the contrary, that's the reason why machine learning
research has become a quagmire and progress has stalled.

Here's Geoff Hinton on benchmarks (again; I cite that all the time):

GH: One big challenge the community faces is that if you want to get a paper
published in machine learning now it's got to have a table in it, with all these
different data sets across the top, and all these different methods along the
side, and your method has to look like the best one. If it doesn’t look like
that, it’s hard to get published. I don't think that's encouraging people to
think about radically new ideas.

Now if you send in a paper that has a radically new idea, there's no chance in
hell it will get accepted, because it's going to get some junior reviewer who
doesn't understand it. Or it’s going to get a senior reviewer who's trying to
review too many papers and doesn't understand it first time round and assumes it
must be nonsense. Anything that makes the brain hurt is not going to get
accepted. And I think that's really bad.

What we should be going for, particularly in the basic science conferences, is
radically new ideas. Because we know a radically new idea in the long run is
going to be much more influential than a tiny improvement. That's I think the
main downside of the fact that we've got this inversion now, where you've got a
few senior guys and a gazillion young guys.

And here's a recent paper noting yet another way machine learning benchmarks are
borked:

https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.08907

P.S. And, please leave that aggressive attitude out of research discussions
("bullshit walks"?). Science is not the constant comparison of dick measurements.
That's perhaps the point of sports, but anything that stifles debate and
inhibits the development of new ideas is anti-science.
Mysterio et al from "Spider-Man: Far From Home" is closer to lionizing IT folk while lambasting Tony Stark.
Be careful about trusting Urban Dictionary too much. It can serve has a useful hint about what some slang means, but is often heavily biased towards the slang used by certain demographics and subcultures (and is vulnerable to brigading). It certainly is not a source of the "one true meaning" of a word.

I am sure your language does have a word that is pretty similar to "pretentious" though it may not have all of the conotations. I recommend a real dictionary that has multiple good definitions or a good cross-language dictionary that can give you several alternate words in your language that map to the various uses of "pretentious".

"Woke" is even more complicated. It is a word that originated over half a century ago in African American culture as part of the civil rights movement. It meant being aware of and working to fight racial injustice. It was then coopted a decade ago by progressive people working on a broader range of social justice issues to describe awareness of those issues. It was then further co-opted by conservative people to mock progressive people as pretentious.

The poster is trying to pretend that only this last meaning is real and valid. They are either ignorant or a racist troll working to further the co-opting of the term.
It doesn't provide any advantages because there is no install base, so desktop software doesn't utilize it. It's just a wider SIMD instruction set, and I'm confused why people relegate it to HPC only category.
> The spread of democracy has caused a great deal of chaos as well documented by Amy Chua in her book World on Fire.

No surprise there actually. Sensible people have always been aware that liberal/bourgeois values and Constitutional protection of fundamental rights are basic prerequisites for meaningful democracy, as practiced throughout the West. Elections alone are practically irrelevant if these more basic things are missing.
> When the space adventure story includes a massive subplot about a non-white characters search for identity in an unjust world that oppressed them, you suddenly wonder if the bought the wrong ticket.

Why is that verboten? Why is it different than any other subplot of a personal challenge? It's a common part of real life.
I brought it up because it’s close to Buenos Aires and because I’m under the impression that Uruguay is a pretty well run place. I’m assuming there to already be a lot of connections, personal and trade, between the two metro areas. I’ve never been to either and anything beyond geography is guesswork on my part. Anyway, thanks for the clarifications :)
I've done more than play with Firefox and Mozilla toolkit code. "All the stuff is done by the C++ parts underneath" is an overstatement. (Not least of all because a bunch of stuff is now done by Rust parts and not C++ parts.) Plenty of the behind the scenes stuff is JS.

> At the end of the day, any Electron app I use (I use TiddlyDesktop for example) is using more RAM and CPU, and bogging down both considerably more w.r.t. Firefox, KDE or Eclipse. When a simple application which has a very optimized C++ core is using more resources to show a simple web page and manipulate it is using comparable resources to my IDE or primary browser, there's something very wrong.

These remarks doesn't really make any sense here. I didn't show up to the party defending Electron apps and their authors. My comment was an explicit indictment of typical NPM and Electron development practices.
I agree. When you like someone, you make it a priority to spend time with them, be nice to them and all that other stuff. What is weird is when you quit your job to court someone. When you make a joke that there is "prophecy" that you and she will be together. On its face, it's pretentious and a laugh, but there's a subtext that if a man makes the decision he wants a women and he performs certain tasks, she has no agency in the manner.
Ask HN: Falling Asleep to Podcasts
I have developed an unusual habit: I like to listen to podcasts when I go to sleep. Initially, I listened to podcasts after waking up in the middle of the night to fall back asleep, but since then I began also listening when I initially lay down to go to sleep.

I am curious if this habit is not so unusual after all.

Do you fall to sleep to podcasts? And if so:

1. What podcasts?

2. What audio setup do you use?

For myself:

1. Entertainment/light-hearted podcasts work best for me such as Triviality, Flip the Table, Stuff You Should Know. I like Real Python, but it gets me thinking too much before sleep.

2. I use AntennaPod on an old Samsung Galaxy S5 phone with a bluetooth headband headphones. I tried corded headphones, but destroyed them when turning over at night.
It's a suspicious action, so probably locking the account down until they can get in touch and confirm that's what the user wanted to do, and wasn't hacked etc. Could even be automated between npm and github, a compromise warning or similar. All conjecture though.
China will have major break-troughs in the field of "Nuclear Fusion" (aka Artificial Sun). They will have a working energy producing plasma for more than 24h, beating their current record of 17 minutes. This will swing the door for commercial Nuclear Fusion reactors open.

EGS will start to make a difference in terms of technology choices. Significant number of Enterprises using Blockchain will move completely away from "PoW blockchains".
The device currently offers a switch, available to either hand, that moves the mouse up, down, left, right. You can use them both at the same time for diagonal movements and same direction movements to increase the speed--but it's nothing you'd want to use in an FPS and that's why you see Riley playing with the CC in one hand and mouse in the other.
It won’t. It’s amazing how severely depressed people will wish themselves to not be alive for days on end and get nowhere with it. Hence suicide needs to be active. Not saying it’s the preferred way to approach things. Just that there’s more to it than a simple giving up.

It's also worth noting that banks couldn't operate across state lines until sometime in the 80s, so it wasn't unusual to see a lot of different smaller banks.
I find it extremely annoying that I pay money each month to both Amazon and Apple for their video products, but if I actually want to watch most movies they still want £3.49 to "rent" (which I sometimes do if it is the beginning of the month) it and £8.99 to "buy" it. Some TV series that are over ten years old are still £50+ to buy a "box set" like we are some old morons.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Thankfully I have infuse on my ATV, so if the price is too high, I pirate.
I would like to share that far from sticking it to big companies, piracy hurt independent creators way more than big corporate interests.
Sure, software behemoths would be even happier to squeeze out more pennies from individual purchases, but they make their big bucks at governmental and institutional levels.
Meanwhile, _consumers_ compare free software to "free" cracked software.
If the equation was "does this software bring me 300 CURRENCY of value, or can I get this value out of a free alternative?", the results would be quite different.
Which means we would also deal with better financed alternatives...

Netflix etc are legal, but if you care about proper rewarding of creators and improving the situation, well.
My experience with Netflix: it told me to switch browsers, disable my VPN, and install spyware on my computer, so that I could have the privilege of viewing video in 720p while I had an Internet connection.

I just laughed, closed the browser, opened up tpb. In 5 minutes I was watching what I wanted in 4K. I don't need to jump through hoops, install spyware, surrender my privacy, and I have a .mkv I can play on whatever device I want. I'd gladly pay good money for this.

Not to mention: I have access to older/niche content, not just endlessly formulaic "Netflix original series", I can lend it to someone else (remember dvds?), I can archive a copy and not be dependent on the whims of my provider.
That's "easy" mode?!@#$
I still don't understand how they lost the instant messaging market. Nowadays, every one of my friends has WhatsApp.

In 1999, I believed it was impossible for anyone to use anything that was not MSN messenger.

MSN was HUGE.
You'd be surprised how many developers are working on Django projects right now who have never written a line of SQL in their entire lives.

Instead of thinking about data and business logic, they're preoccupied by code and separation of concerns. That's why we end up with database that are unqueryable from outside of Django's ORM itself.

Good luck if you end up working in a project that makes heavy use of GenericForeignKeys.
You are clearly American. American administrations preferred and supported third-world tyrants during the Cold War over functional democracies since the former could be easily controlled. This is extensively documented and even admitted by several ex-DC head honchos.

Public messaging by POTUS for national consumption is very different from actions on the ground.
I want to share my interview fail story. It potentially cost me an annual salary that was jaw dropping.

My experience is designing and implementing HA distributed systems at high scale. I rode a unicorn and became a principal engineer after years of work. I conducted many hundreds of interviews as we grew, and specifically dozens and dozens of "implement an lru cache."

My interview question given to me? Yeah, implement an lru cache. My mind absolutely blanked. Like full blank. I can't even explain it. I had to start at first principals and made silly mistakes. I bumbled on the keyboard. I thought I was nervous before we started! Ha!
My experience is similar. Even if and when the metrics are calculated properly, there's often some design or business reason put forth as an excuse to ignore them.
And what's wrong with that? Films typically fit amusement generally, or "a-" not and "muse" to think. Finding quality content it like opening a mineral mine and doing the operation manually, less like attending a film or reading HN. The nuggets of value are expensive to uncover.
What part of history are you referring to?

What kind of examples are really coming to your mind here?
Yes, you can manage and edit your chord library. Default device has 500 chords for the 300 most common English words.

It supports other character sets--have to join their discord and look to see which ones.

It's compatible with any system a keyboard would be. The OS doesn't know it's not just a USB keyboard.
