I don't know the last time you used nouveau drivers but this is just wrong.

is it feature complete ? no, but to go ahead and say it's not working for 99% is just lying here is the list: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/FeatureMatrix.html

what you can say though is that it is a bad idea for GPU that are relatively recent. wont block you from booting or displaying to screen but would probably be slow.

also this is distro dependent, I remember being given the choice with no default one (mean chosen automatically) when installing Manjaro (a derivative of arch linux).

I chose the proprietary driver since they are feature complete but later switched to nouveau driver since they are not prone to breaking on every other update. that was 2 years ago, zero problems since.
Tell HN: A way coders could help Ukraine
Ukraine is posting photos and videos of captured or killed Russian soldiers, for their families to find. But who wants to scroll through that? And might the resulting psychological harm[1] not damage Ukraine's support?

More effective, I think, would be a site that lets a relative upload some photos and matches them via facial recognition to data on her son, if available.

This could also help Ukraine fend off later accusations of violating the Geneva Convention, which says governments must protect POWs from “insults and public curiosity." https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/03/03/telegram-russian-war-dead-ukraine-pows/

> When you ask people to remember too many passwords, they start writing them down and/or forgetting them, which leads to other problems.

Writing passwords down isn't the worst thing. If you can't convince someone to use a password manager like 1Password, getting them to use a physical notebook of unique and strong passwords is actually the next best thing, because (combined with 2FA) it protects them against the most relevant threat models for most people (phishing and password stuffing).
Not raids, but World of Warcraft's "Isand Expeditions" feature, introduced around 2018, does this.

They use an AI trained on PvP player behaviour, so the NPCs jump around, respond to teammates being injured, try to catch you off-rotation, etc.

In my opinion, it wouldn't work for bosses though, as part of the fun is exactly about understanding the tells and patterns. If you want to fight against intelligent enemies, just play PvP! I think if you play without addons like BigWigs/DeadlyBossMods you'll have much more fun, if what you're looking for is unpredictability.

Plus, would there really be that much of a difference between a machine-learned approach and a decision tree when every action the boss can perform needs to be pre-programmed anyway, and have predefined ranges/optimal uses? Maybe a different game could combine that with something like Magicka, where there are spell "recipes" which can be combined, so the AI would have more options to play with.

Another example is things like Dark Souls, the bosses are so engaging to its players _because_ you can learn to understand how they respond to your positioning. If they were a moving target, there would be no point in doing anything but learning the animations for each attack so you can dodge, so in the end they would be _less_ intellectually engaging.

There actually seems to have been a promise made, back in 1991, that NATO wouldn't expand eastward beyond Germany. Somebody did some research deep and found an assurance like that in protocols, Spiegel reports

Or if you want just the quote out of the protocol by the researcher, see here:

Not sure how binding such an assurance is or should be.

It takes 5 minutes to refuel a gas car, and gas stations are ubiquitous. Most EVs take about 30 minutes to gain an appreciable amount of range at a level 3 charger, which are far from common, thus necessitating a long detour. They also often have long lines—you can easily spend at least as much time waiting for a charger to become available as you will actually charging the car.

Which is partly why Russia has been belligerent. The Swedes and Finns have an arrangement dating back to the Cold War. Estonia, et. al were admitted after it seemed the order had changed. But given how things turned out after the end of the Cold War, it makes it look all the more complicated in hindsight.
Having no neighbor to the east helped with that a bit.

From my west-slavic (Polish) perspective I can understand Czech, Slovakian (a bit harder) and Ukrainian semi-ok. But Russian is way, way harder (there are some similar words but most are alien to me).

The West is definitely not standing by, they have issued unprecedented sanctions. Of course we're clearly not facing a rational actor, so there's no telling when intervention will be "enough". But sanctions are not necessarily worse or less impactful than the alternative being proposed here.

Everything not in the registers is a main memory write if you ignore that cache sits inbetween. "All" the CPU needs to do for a mutex is some atomics to verify the core can lock it, it doesn't need to wait for that info to propagate back to the physical RAM stick the same as how anything else in cache doesn't need to wait for it.

My son wanted a "gaming PC" and I gave in with the only stipulation being that it had to be Linux. He plays Minecraft and Cities: Skylines, so it's all good. The Nouveau drivers suck for this. It's a ~3-year old i7 PC with a 1660 GPU. Maybe that's the difference? Switching from Nouveau to the Ubuntu-provided recommended Nvidia driver (510.XX?) gives you a 200-300% improvement!

Yes - my point was simply that “as successful” and “as profitable” intersect but don't overlap. There are many formerly successful businesses where they cut too deeply into staffing, future investment, etc. to maximize profits and I would generally expect a union member to be more interested in the former goal than the latter.

Not meaningfully. Let's take my Hacker News password and we'll imagine you happen to know (somehow) exactly what the format is, so then you start guessing.

And we'll imagine you can make 1 billion login attempts per second, which in fact I'd guess will make dang pretty unhappy 'cos the servers won't like that.

And maybe you get to do this on a billion computers, and for a billion seconds, again I'm thinking somebody would notice and stop you, but let's just say...

At the end of all that you've still got orders of magnitude less chance of guessing my password, for this web site correctly than a random ticket buyer has of winning the jackpot in a typical state or national lottery game. Get a new hobby.

I think people struggle with the numbers involved. Even astronomical numbers are too small, because astronomical numbers involve practical things, like how quickly light travels and maths does not need to be practical.

dusts off HN account

I’m part of a now-large-ish Montessori startup and am a sort of Montessori scholar. The biography reviewed here is very good and worth checking out. Overall it’s the best of the biographies available, and is a significant improvement over Kramer’s from a few decades ago.

Just an aside: the extended tangents in the review about Montessori’s entrepreneurialism turning her method into a classist privilege are, uh, really strange. The idea in the review seems to be that the rarity and expense of Montessori in the US is because she charged for trainings and tried to parent some materials. Purely as a matter of historical fact, this is a narrative in search of evidence that isn’t there, and a narrative that isn’t really face plausible. Montessori education is rare because the progressive intellectuals that built the US school system adamantly and vociferously rejected Montessori for pedagogical reasons. There are just way better explanations available for why her work didn’t take hold more widely.

Glad to see Montessori and Stefano’s biography in particular getting coverage though. I’ve enjoyed reading the many comments here about people’s experiences with Montessori!
What's more interesting is that humans have forgotten how. Not that animals haven't.

Don't forget passing around Excel documents. I'm not a lawyer, but I've read accounts of this from enough to think it's a whole thing and not an isolated phenomenon.
I went to a montessori school for 10 years and i fail to see how a system where you except a "slow" child to want to learn subject that it find difficult and put in the time, dicipline and efforts into it. The method is all about children wanting to learn subjects that are difficult and challenging for them by them self with very little structure and minimal interferance.
(Context: I have a PhD in genomics - but not necessarily an expert in this sub-field)

It is possible, but still difficult, to edit cells in-place. One example is the liver, a highly vascularized tissue (lots of blood vessels). This means that you can use a blood-based delivery method, e.g. blood infusion of CRISPR components + other compounds that allow these components to enter cells. Over time, more of the liver cells are edited and you can reach a reasonable proportion of the cells using this method using current techniques (40-90%). Note that for many diseases you would not have to reach 100% of the cells in order to have a positive effect on health.

There are a few labs working on better targeted delivery methods. In general the approach is to "wrap" CRISPR components in an envelope that is able to target specific cell-surface proteins for the cell type of interest.
Except consumer GPUs don't officially support ROCm, despite consistent pressure from users for years. And there's no indication of when that situation will change.

CUDA is successful because the same software works on low-powered laptop GPUs and expensive datacenter GPUs.
If only there were a way to take a trip without driving. It would be so nice if there were some kind of large vehicle that multiple people could get in, that had a dedicate right-of-way for long-haul trips, so individuals didn't have to worry about fuel. These hypothetical vehicles could go to multiple high-traffic destinations, so a person could get close to where they wanted to be, and then drive a personal vehicle the rest of the distance, but sleep for most of the trip, or just relax.

Unfortunately, no such method of travel ever has or ever will be invented, so I guess we'll just have to rely on internal combustion engines for the rest of eternity.

> As long as they don't bomb Russia or Belarus (territory)

You think Putin will just roll over and allow NATO to kill Russian soldiers? We've almost gone to war for a lot less than that, doing so would be an egregious act of war.

> NATO already promised Ukrain membership in the past.

This means absolutely nothing, they also promised they wouldn't expand Eastwards and look what happened.

> I don't think there is any clause to prevent the NATO from making Ukrain a member _now_.

That would immediately invoke Article 5 and start WWIII

> Plus Russia can't use Nukes, they would be done for, not because of Nuclear war but because of losing Chinas support.

I'm sorry, this is just so incredibly foolish. Do you honestly think nuclear war is not a big deal? All sides lose in a nuclear exchange, not just from the cities that will burn but from all of the ensuing fallout and climate effects. If you think CO2 is bad for the atmosphere just take a peek at what ash and dust clouds can do.
> My code is not theirs and this is the core issue.

This is _exactly_ why a lot of jurisdictions assign/assume copyright by default, and make it hard to 'remove'. Otherwise authors would see their work ripped off in a lot of inventive ways.

When the default state is that every work is copyrighted, that removes a lot of possible confusion, and possible excuses.

When a NATO country is attacked. The logic is very clear and that is why Putin does not want to see Ukraine in NATO.
Because software licenses are a mess Linux and Samba implement the same protocol UT can't share code as one is under GPLv3 and one is under GPLv2. In the past GPLv2 was the universal receptor license for open source licenses (is that license GPLv2 compatible and my code is then I can release the result as GPLv2). GPLv3 changed that. Now there is only the universal donor. There is turns The public domain. However that one has been utterly FUDed by boomer lawyers being compared to littering by the highway. So now we need a rubber stampable (so people can use it until copyright gets killed ... Uhhm ... fixed) public domain equivalent license. OBSD does that without "any uncertainty" and it being a "proper license".

> End result is the same without the uncertainty.

You fell for the boomer FUD.

The parent was asking for a license "akin to Public Domain", not a "share-alike" license.
I think it is foolish to try to predict what Russia/Putin is up to once Ukraine has been dealt with (which, I assume, it/he will have achieved at some point in time). There are numerous reports of fact as well as opinion pieces published over the decades since the fall of the SU by esteemed and respected strategists which or who pointed at/predicted Russian military intervention, if NATO did not call off its eastward expansion plans. We have arrived at that point in 2008 already, and then again in 2014, and now finally also in 2022.

For those wanting to involve NATO and set off WW3 along with the nuclear apocalypse, I wonder - why the rush? We can still nuke this planet's civilization to scraps after Russia's/Putin's plans for re-establishing the "Great Russian Empire" have materialzied - or rather, if they actually do.

Please excuse my cynical undertone, but this reckless calling for intervention that may very well lead to a kind of catastrophic escalation that human history would never ever recover from REALLY scares the shit out of me :(

I've had tinnitus for about 20 years now and I don't notice it most of the time and when I do don't really mind it too much. The only thing I really miss is perfect silence.

One of the things I've noticed people struggle with regarding any chronic illness is constantly feeling like they are "supposed" to be feeling fine and have more distress worrying about some perceived gap between their actual life and how they imagine life should be then the ailment itself(this obviously carrier over to things other than chronic illness).

Letting go of this imagined alternative life is the biggest first step towards accepting and dealing with tinnitus. I have tinnitus the same way I have all my other features, positive and negative. That's just the life I have and there is no alternate life out there.

I do still get a kick out of the look of horror on people's faces when I tell them I've had constant, changing frequency, ringing in my ear for two decades.
Yes, because in some jurisdictions it is not possible to discard your rights.
This problem could also be solved by making the specs so rigid and implementations so constrained that none of these techniques could be used to differentiate one user agent from another.

For many reasons, the lesser of two evils is probably to make user agent differentiation possible. The number of apis one has to cut out to make it impossible basically rolls HTML back to the 1.0 with no JavaScript era.

Implementation details of the machine rendering a document leak through all over the place. The fact that they are allowed to vary while confirming to spec has historically been considered a feature of HTML rendering, not a bug.
