For Canada, it looks to be hard to acquire a used one for less than $250-280 CAD. So about $200-$220 USD.

Still a solid choice. I find it hard to imagine there's any android phone that can beat this phone for the same price (used or not!), OS support, camera quality, speaker quality, CPU speed & task switching speed, overall responsiveness, etc.
That's how my high school (in New Zealand) did things. We were separated into 3 bands, the first band for high achieving students, the second band for average students, and the third band for learning support. From memory, there were ~5 classes in the first band, 10 in the second, and 3 in the third.

It was a great system for both teachers and students. Everyone in a class would be learning at roughly the same rate, and the school was able to allocate resources, such teachers aides, more efficiently.
SSD read speed for 1MB today is the same as RAM read speed for 1MB in 2008.

I wonder what kind of implications this has for designing databases... or swap files.
Yes, the dish tends to change satellites every 15 seconds, targeting would probably be a nightmare.
They have tremendous range and are immune to MANPADS, so it's as safe as could be.

Russian AWACS has been up since the beginning, and there are no reports of it being shot down.

Agree, the hubris required to make a similar device (and similar business model) after such a spectacular failure really amazes me.
The biggest one.
A lot of open source software gains automatic trust by virtue of the fact you could check it out, read the source, and compile it yourself. This possibility stands in for the fact that you probably can't - you probably can't actually read the code, and if you could you can't possibly understand all the edge cases and implications, and you definitely don't have time, especially if you are to recurse into its dependency tree.

So for scripting, where you give a random piece of code access to your entire digital life, a language that is hard to write for even experienced developers but is easy to read and fully understand what is going to happen when they run it, for anyone who could read its licence agreement, is an inspired choice.

It should be very hard to make software that could hurt people. It should be obvious, to as many people as possible, when software could hurt people. If we all prioritised user safety over developer comfort we would have a very different industry.
It was on fire (in flames) about 10 minutes ago (according to local news).

I just hope for the best.
Solar particles become less of a threat, but the sun's atmosphere actually shields the solar system from some types of cosmic rays. Don't know what proportion of electronics faults stem from each, though.

> Valve has a bad track record for committing to their own hardware. Remember how everyone also thought SteamOS was going to be the big takeover and it barely even happened?

You seem to be unaware that SteamOS was a a resounding success in its primary goal: to stop in its tracks Microsoft's plan to turn the Windows OS into a locked-down walled garden that would run only MS-approved software* (by threatening them to switch the majority of gamers to Linux). Microsoft has never attempted such thing again to the same extent, and even XBox games are largely PC compatible.

That Valve has learned a lot about porting Windows games to Linux and they went through all the early labor pains, so that a few years later they have a robust and stable platform for their new competitive device, is just icing on the cake.

* For a hint of this backstory, see https://www.pcworld.com/article/394953/why-does-the-steam-de...

> it's just not going to be as smooth as a console with a dedicated OS. I'm guessing lots of people will install windows.

This is a console with a dedicated OS (which just happens to be Windows retro-compatible, thanks to Valve's Proton layer). Given the success it looks set to have, publishers won't be able to afford not to optimize their future AAA games for the device.
Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what ruleset is described by that comment. The use of offsets seems to suggest that the card needed to play starts at a particular offset "A", and then rotates as the turn moves around the table. But then, if any players pass, that would throw off your offset... So count me confused.
Oh, look; Russia just decided to do it themselves:

Yes you can build more wind and solar but people need power also during the dark and sometimes windless winter months. Storing enough power isn't currently feasible so it's basically either coal, gas or nuclear.
I don't think it's a question of being expensive, but more like completely impossible. One good thing is that heating in Germany usually is via radiators that are water fed and the water is heated "centrally". Even in single family homes. Apartment blocks have different options. Some are central (basement heater feeding the radiators) but also some apartments have a gas heater in every apartment individually feeding just that apartment's radiators and gas is distributed throughout the apartment block.

If you had to replace every single gas heating system that would be both very expensive and without having any actual data I would gather that you wouldn't be able to retrofit all of Germany with that in time. Wood I would gather is gonna be even worse. While I can see how a single family home would convert (lots of folks have replaced their gar furnace with a wood pellet heater w/ auto-feeders), how would that work for apartment buildings with individual gas heaters in the apartments? These are all concrete buildings where it'd be quite the feat to replace the gas distribution with central water distribution for radiators. And those gas heaters do not take a lot of space and are used even in tiny apartments. Where do you store wood pellets in that situation?

Of course there are exceptions where heat is provided remotely already by a "Heizkraftwerk" (e.g. fed from industrial cooling systems or garbage burners).
> Lyft. Got a generic error when requesting a ride, which told me to contact support. I contacted support and they said my account was suspended due to violation of ToS with fradulent activity. I asked exactly what they think I did to violate ToS and they would not tell me. I've taken hundreds of 5-star rides, never comitted any fraud, I don't drive for Lyft or even know anyone who does. To this day I still don't know what I did "wrong."

My god, this happened to me last week as well!! Suddenly my Lyft account wouldn't let me book a ride, but provided no reason why in the app. When I contacted their support, I was escalated until a rep wrote back:

"After investigating the issue with our risk team, I'm unable to re-open your account. Legally, we cannot release any additional information except that we found your account to be violating our Terms of Service."

All follow-ups inquiries that I sent were ignored, so I ended up just deleting my Lyft account instead, because if they're going to be that Kafakesque, what's the point?

Still can't figure out what on my phone would have caused any issues, my phone setup is standard Android that is NOT rooted...
At that point it would be cheaper to order one from overseas and pay shipping, I'd think?

Zero and nonzero mantissas always mean different things, no matter what the exponent is. I guess I am not sure how this could be described as an optimization... an optimization relative to what? Some hypothetical floating-point format which has extra bits?
The UI is definitely at least lifted from jitsi-meet, and if you look at the dev console you can see that it's using lib-jitsi-meet. I'm not sure what the backend is, but I'd be surprised if it's not just straight up jitisi-videobridge. They might have built some stuff on top of lib-jitsi-meet but the actual bones of it (such as the encryption, which is likely to be of interest to HN types) is almost certainly gonna be Jitsi itself. I suspect that the project you linked is basically just some chrome around the actual Jitsi internals.

You think it's good that roughly 1 million children in Iraq died due to US sanctions too?

In my opinion, thinking collective punishment is valid is a sign of moral bankruptcy.
But think of the efficiency!

It was dry, but the funny bit, I think, is that Terran civilization can somehow get along without its billionaires.
There's no particular difficulty in planting corn, sputtering wafers, or conserving native grasslands on top of coffins, but even if there were, your numbers show that it would take 12000 years for coffins to reduce by 1% the land available to be "used as a productive asset for agriculture, industry, or environmental preservation".

Corellium is more for low-level library and kernel debugging and situations where you need control over the boot process, the same kind of thing you'd use qemu for vs. the iOS Simulator in Docker-OSX or AWS Mac instances or whatever. For just running UI tests, AWS Mac instances or Appium/Browserstack/whatever is going to be way cheaper and more practical.

For low level debugging situations using real hardware is impractical or impossible as you need stolen debug probes (or to be part of the super exclusive Apple research program) and/or custom hardware.
> I need to learn the non-technical skills where I'm weak before doing this again. Or at least meet a co-founder who's strengths overlap with my weaknesses - probably a marketing/sales person.

Not necessarily. I believe, at first, the only thing you need to do is - talk with people. Start with tech conferences. I believe a lot of them would let you deliver a session. You will create more connections and also you'll get a lot of feedback from people that will help in refining your message and pitch. One talk after another, you will realize how accurately people are able to understand, what you are trying to deliver. Refine, talk, listen - that's your cycle. Also, because you are building an open-source product - you might also find some contributors.

Edit - ‘Talk with people’ - you already started here. Good job on that.
Decentralized Identifiers with Solid (did:solid method)
> The idea that you should interact so much with your peers is kind of strange to be honest. Is it really healthy for kids to interact regularly with their peers?

Oh yes. Social skills are vitally important. You have to learn those by doing.

> Historically, kids would learn to work on the farm, attend church, etc and they'd see other children, but most of the time they'd be learning from adults how to act and strive for.

I don't think that's even true. I think historically kids were told to go away/be quiet until they were old enough to be productive.

I also think that we're producing better socialized kids these days.

Says the NPP has some defenses from air attacks. So it may be war-proof after all.
Yeah, it was a reference to that time. It brought Apple so close to the grave that only a music piracy gadget could save them.
In time subscription services will consolidate. We will have a few large companies that will dominate the different spaces. It seems to be the way things work. From independence to consolidation back to independence and so on, the pattern always seems to replicate.
26000km/h surprise rocket I guess
A place i worked had a wiki, and i diligently updated the wiki with everything that i was doing, including screenshots and links to where i came about the correct solution to problems if necessary. Having to host a meeting every two weeks to basically put the wiki up on a projector and read from it, taught me within the first quarter to not bother with the wiki editing at all.

I had my own set of servers in a rack, and i synced home directories between my laptop, desktop, and the servers. When i left, one of my managers pulled up all edits from the wiki that i made (18 months prior!), and said "i thought you said you were good at documentation...?" I emailed him the tarball of my home directory. They obviously weren't paying me to write documentation.

There was also three ticketing systems, depending on what group whoever submitted a ticket either knew about or thought could handle it. There was a ton of notes in the ticketing system. I wasn't involved in stuff that people could complain about, so i only used the ticketing system when i would volunteer to help do NOC/sysadmin duties. There was no mindshare between the wiki and the ticketing systems.

There was also email. There was also several IRC channels, internally - each group would have a room for the devs and manager(s) for that group, and the managers and some devs were in the IT channels or the backoffice channels, it was a mess. I like IRC for emergencies and for basic communication, but stuff that isn't transitory or ephemeral ought be put in the wiki, not left to someone to figure out how to parse irc logs at some point in the future.

I still occasionally write detailed "how-to" guides, put up here and there on the internet - but i've still never found a decent software stack to self-host some sort of documentation repository, and oh how i've tried so many softwares...

This is a management failure. If you let hundreds of people run amok you're going to have nonsense documentation strategies. First: you can't have a group of people dedicated to putting out fires who also do other things. Don't have NOC do database backups, for instance. NOC should NOC, and their "guidebook" should be in the same place as everyone else's. As soon as you relieve the pressure on different sub-organizations or teams or groups, you can probably successfully mandate that X hours per week of the team's budget should go to pruning, editing, correcting, and adding to the documentation. Secondly, the manager or at least the senior team member should get an easily digestible digest of all edits/new entries posted to the documentation system, ideally daily. If the documentation starts to drop off or becomes lower quality, that should be addressed quickly. Third, a universal glossary would be excellent.

i wrote too much to agree with your premise, but other than the last paragraph being a non-solution, i didn't really add anything. Oh well.
Yes, fantastic book. Wrong premise though, fallout does not live as long as Nevil Shute makes it out to do, nor do the shifting wind patterns lead to the movement of large amounts of northern-hemisphere dust to the southern hemisphere.

At the end, he poses an interesting question: will Apple shrink its computers now that they're on Apple silicon and don't need as much cooling as before, or will they fill this space with more powerful processors?

It's an interesting question, and I don't know that there's one single answer. There's not much benefit in shrinking the Mac mini IMO. But there could be a benefit to shrinking laptops.
I don't think that's entirely the case; it seems votes are weighed much lower than normal, but they're still weighed. An example would be this post, which is quite high up even though there are many newer posts.
If you can't detect them, perhaps that increases the incentive to never even threaten the use of your own nuclear weapons? After all, a threat would encourage your (potential) enemies to strike first.
Some additional info: All those being excluded have received the message with understanding, according to Norway Chess. They will not take into concideration whether the participants have voiced criticism of the war or not, as Norway Chess cannot judge whether any individual is "sufficiently against" the war nor put anyone in a situation where they feel they have to take stance in the conflict (due to the participants' own safety)

Yes, but I use a TST-like extension so I can see them all on the left side. I ignore the stubs at the top, and I believe there's a way to make them disappear entirely.
That's a fair point. Many of the 45 presidents engaged in similar behavior but recent technology improvements have made noticing it much easier.
That's Old Man's War (2005, Scalzi) [0], itself a twist on the (much darker) The Forever War (1974, Haldeman) [1].

Both are predicated on the extra-Earth faction having overwhelming technological superiority and resources. Gravity is not that helpful.

So, not "initial colony" stages.

My goals were mostly the same, and I realized I needed RTSP/ONVIF cameras with poe links

Started using kerberos.io but got frustrated with their licensing. I had thought using their hooks would be enough for my use case.

In the end I wrote some code that uses opencv to monitor the stream, look for motion, then I isolate the motion and use yolov3 to classify what is in the motion area. The motion isolation ended up being required because I didn't want the car in my driveway to be classified on every video.

Then some simple rules to control how things get saved and if I get alerted. If I am alerted the video gets uploaded to an s3 bucket, and a presigned link gets sent over telegram. Of course, I keep a local copy for some time as well :)

My cameras are all on an isolated network. The server monitoring them has two nics so it's able to route to the cameras and externally. The server consumes a lot of CPU, but I hope to eventually get a minor gpu for it to offload some of the work

It's been a very fun and rewarding project, and I hope to keep iterating.
I don't think that's the best example for your point: the doorman and your friends are collaborating together, not adversaries who's fight is affecting you. Anger would rightly be directed at everyone involved.

The better example is you go to a nightclub and the doorman won't let you in because he says your friends were there being dicks earlier. Do you go and chew out your friends or get angry with the man stopping your night for something you didn't even do?

The Times is indeed the paper of record, but it also is (or was) the leading investigative journalism source - massive, groundbraking pieces like (off the top of my head), the Pentagon Papers, the NSA's domestic spying (Snowden), Hillary Clinton's email server, Donald Trump's tax records, and far, far more.

I'm all for emulating systems that don't exist anymore. But this commenter's level of naive entitlement is beyond obnoxious.

A good rule to live by is to ask "what would happen if everyone did X?" In this case, Nintendo would cease to exist. Maybe you'd be happy about this. Plenty of people wouldn't. Switches are generally available and not that expensive. If you want to play Switch games, buy one. If you don't, don't.

And failing that if you want to just steal, then just steal. But what really rubs me the wrong way is when people who have chosen to steal start moralizing their position like they're standing up for some vague rights or principles. At least be honest about it. The hyporcrisy, intellectual dishonesty, bad faith arguments and self-delusion is in many ways worse than the theft.

Every level of cache strikes a balance between latency & capacity. Bigger caches have higher latency; it's a fundamental property of caches.

What you can conclude is that 0.5MB-2MB and 12-15 cycles of latency has been a steady sweet spot for L2 size for twenty years.

Sidebar: it was a property of caches. 3D assembly may upend the local optima.
What a tortured usage of GraphQL. Schema files are automatically generated by the backend, and components pull data that they need, and know more. If you find yourself changing schemas constantly, then you’re not defining them in a scalable manner. You’ve basically misused the tech, and blamed it on the tech instead of your misuse.
But there's no reason to restrict the peers to kids their age, which is somewhat unnatural. They need socialization, but with a mix of ages. Not just other 7th graders.
I need the long German word for “however this plays out, it will be used as a spurious example either for or against some extreme position”.

If it works out, great - that hardly means unions are a foolproof idea - and if it fails it’s hardly a condemnation of unions themselves. And yet, it will be interesting to see how this plays out!
I was thinking the change is in the last year or so.
