I like to play a mental game where I try to figure out the year where a current latest Raspberry Pi is equivalent to the total world computing power. Most of the time I fall asleep before I get very far! ;)

Example: The original Cray-1 could process 160MFLOPS, while a Pi Zero 2 can process 5.1GFLOPS. (via http://www.clustered-pi.com/ ) The Cray-1 was released in 1975 with over 100 sold: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray-1 -- So the Pi Zero 2 was roughly 300 times more powerful than a Cray-1, and was roughly equivalent to the world's computing power in 1975.

I leave it up to the reader to work out other comparisons :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance_by_orders... can be useful to help you figure out the equivalent computing power of various devices.
What global exchanges? FX is all OTC.
I don't think that's the basic premise. elementary is not just a GTK theme, they have their own set of apps (for better or for worse) which follow their HIG, they are rewriting productivity apps to use the EDS backend throughout the system, they are trying to improve gesture support everywhere... It feels a lot like what made OS X so great about a decade ago.
If the solution to keep afloat was to take 5% haircut than the money situation was not bad. Bigger issue is that apparently there's no agreement between the founders how much company they own and the value of it.

Nice thing about OSS is that Elementary OS license is GNU GPL3.0 which means that project can live on if there's interest in it.
My picture is that it's the same. Maybe even worse. Too many academicians for too few tenure positions. Breeds all kinds of metric to sort out candidates for positions. Quantity is king.
The program’s objective was to output the information, not to ensure that a user read it. Redirecting to `/dev/null` is a valid and common use of a program warranting no warning, so is running a program, collecting its log, then ultimately discarding it having never looked at it (in fact it’s the norm of well-behaved and solid programs).
In your analogy, are not stores on main streets taxed higher than stores on back alleys?
I think the same way you do but I’ve noticed that many people won’t bring up issues unless you take them aside and ask the right questions. No amount of openness and trust seems to work as well as gentle prompting.

Of course, you need to trust your manager. I’ve made the mistake of doing that more than once.
I am sorry for not being more clear, but it is an executive action performed by democratically elected government. It can still be overruled in courts. If it is not, and people of those countries disagree, they can always vote for a different government in the next election.

This is a common democratic process for something that needs to be done urgently when existing legal framework does not allow it, and developing the said framework would take too long.

It wasn’t just that things got faster quickly. Hardware would rapidly become too old to run modern software. My first pc was a 386 33 mhz with 8 mb ram around 1993, and by 1998 software had passed it by to the point where I literally had no use for it except hand it down as a legacy gaming computer to my younger sister. I remember being forced to use 5 year old 386 computer lab pc’s at uni in 1997 and them being too slow to do our programming assignments on.

Pc’s also cost way more back then. That 386 was bottom spec and it was still 1700 euro in 2022 money. Being into computers was an expensive hobby.
No one is perfect my friend. A user pointed out a potential issue in the UK with cookies and a person from the company responded saying they’ve made a team aware.

Enemy it may be but China is a good hedge against sanctions where Russia can still trade without Swift.
Unfortunately the M1 is limited in professional usage by the lack of a 32 GB option, and the fact that the laptops can only handle one external display. The M1 Pro is really a better option since it provides a lot of flexibility that the M1 doesn't have, without being obscene like the M1 Ultra.
The following is all opinion.

The whole point of a 1:1 is an opportunity to see your direct as a person and not as a direct. It puts you on equal playing ground for the moment, and as a manager, it is your responsibility to make sure your direct feels that way. When they trust you, they'll tell you how they really feel. That means being open about what they want out of their career, when they are thinking about leaving, when there's an uncomfortable problem on the team. That is what 1:1 is for, and that's why I always refer to them as a one-to-one and not a one-on-one.
At that point I had just upgraded our Pentium 166 with a Voodoo2 and could finally play Quake 2 in glorious accelerated 800x600 3D. That machine started life as a Micron 486 DX2 66MHz that was upgraded to a Pentium Overdrive which was then upgraded with a Tyan Tomcat III with a Pentium 166. RAM was 32 MB of EDO and video card was an ATI 3d Pro turbo with 4MB VRAM (expandable to 8MB and had built in TV output) Storage was a mix of the 486's original 540MB disk and a 1 GB disk I bought at a computer fair. That was the first gigabyte disk I owned and was ecstatic that I could copy a whole CD's worth of data to my disk.

I still have all of the above mentioned parts, save for the hard disks, including the pulled 486 chip. I had The Tyan booting OpenBSD and 9front last year but it had a lot of stability issues. Unsure if its age related or software.
My thoughts exactly.

Amazing that you can send almost any amount you want (up to £1 million) to another county and that it can arrive in just a matter of days.

Plus there is the added benefit that sanctions and restrictions for specific countries/individuals can be imposed when neccessary to prevent war.

This blows blockchain out of the water.
I gave pipewire a go for a few hours tonight, but couldn't get the A2DP profiles to appear in pavucontrol. Bluetoothctl seems to happily connect and pair, but there's nowhere to point the output to my bluetooth headset :(

I don’t know about weeks, but I remember LibreOffice, Firefox, and Clang all having their own ad hoc build systems requiring some amount of custom configuration.

Debezium is also very Byzantine, or maybe it’s just that I don’t understand maven.
This is what i was reminded of, but didn't remember the URL.

Sadly main reason i was reminded of it is because the Doom 3 one seems to have better responsiveness for mouselook - the HL version feels a bit too laggy.

(though even the D3 version has a tiny amount of lag which i do not remember when i tried it a couple of years ago - perhaps changes in the browser are to blame)
I’d normally have done that myself. But considering that having them handle it also funds Home Assistant development, it was actually pretty easy to decide for.
That seems uncharitable.

The linked issue barely mentions frevib's echo server, and in the one place it does it's the fastest!

Further they show that performance improves when using io_uring for readiness polling but standard read/write calls to actually write - that suggests io_uring_for_each_cqe does not explain the cases where epoll is faster.

> I've submitted a quick and dirty untested PR

That's not improving the situation much then - surely any performance fix should come with at least a rudimentary benchmark?
Have you tried asking your boss what they want out of the meeting?

Debian unstable user here (and also Gentoo on a different PC) - I've removed PulseAudio for a couple of months now, and everything works nicely (including a Bluetooth headset and HDMI audio out) with PipeWire and WirePlumber - the only hiccup was an old manual configuration I had for ALSA to use PulseAudio as default audio sink, which needed to be removed.

I haven't tested Jack compatibility yet.
Ask HN: What attributes in a new job would aid in burnout recovery?
I'm pretty thoroughly burned out. I've been a cog in a very broken machine for too long, but I stayed because I love the people and was a highly motivated useful idiot.

Now that I've managed to get myself ready to be on the market, what should I be looking for in a new job such that it won't inhibit recovery (and perhaps aid in it)?

Some thoughts I've had:
* Take a long break instead (which I don't really want to do because, you know, bills etc, but I also wonder how much it might impact ability to reenter the market)
* Try to be somewhere with more autonomy
* Go with a smaller place to perhaps have a better chance at achieving the above
* Emphasize work-life balance (but figure out what they actually mean by that)
Thank you! Feature creep has been a real issue for me, especially with a framework like Drupal where you easily can add "just one more" module and some glue code..

For me, this isn’t an issue of feedback, it’s an issue of culture. Does the company do the right thing?

Wise does this properly which makes me trust them straight away.

Edit. Don’t want to come off too harsh, just saying the cookie approach doesn’t help me trust the company compared to the main competitor.
I think the main reason for the sudden uptick in Pipewire usage is that due to the pandemic a lot more people were doing daily video meetings with screen sharing. And for all people that have migrated to Wayland, this was a major source of pain.

With pipewire, this works quite nicely, including for applications that are sandboxed (e.g. Jitsi in a Flatpak). In my bubble, when people talked about using Pipewire, it was almost exclusively related to screensharing on Wayland.

I've switched from Pulseaudio to Pulseaudio-on-Pipewire last year and haven't looked back. Next step would be trying to set an audio processing pipeline with audio effects (like a multiband equalizer tuned to my headphones), something that I managed to set up with Jack before using Pipewire, but that was always a pain.
> Another example why we don't need blockchain to do fast and cheap international transfers.

This transfer may take days, as they say on their website. Even slow bitcoin takes only 10ish minutes, or 60 minutes if you want to be safe. More modern blockchains can take seconds.

That doesn't mean blockchain is always the answer, but you're comparing apples and oranges.
Kubernetes Is the New POSIX
> At this point, I think they're in the same delusional mindset as the GNOME foundation, eg.: "our users don't know what's best for them!"

To be fair, I think they're trying to emulate Apple's behavior in this regard which ended up actually working very well for them. Not that I necessarily agree with that decision, I hate Apple for it, but I can't really blame them either when Apple has created what's considered the peak of UX these days using this mindset.

Im assuming you're talking about "the live rate", since the Google claim is verified to be false.

I'd agree with you if it were unavoidable but I don't think that's the case here. There's no need to make a statement that there's a single rate.

For example: "we give you the best price we can find on the international market, without markup". It still states the goal without raising the falsehood of a single price.
I know this isn't what you mean.. but I'm imagining someone blindfolded in a research lab testing this out...
If I were your manager, I'd then be using the time to try to get to know you on a personal level. Hobbies, weekends, family, etc. I'm sure this comes off as prying in an internet comment, but that's because I don't know you. It's completely natural to want to get to know the people around you in person. Sometimes that might mean I need to start telling you about myself to signal that it's ok to get personal.

If you don't do this, it becomes a transactional relationship, which is OK, but to me holds less potential than one based on mutual trust and understanding.

When you borrow $100k you repay the principal or $100k after your Demo Day fund raise and in lieu of interest we will receive a $20k uncapped MFN SAFE. In case the startup fails to raise sufficient funds to make the repayment, then the entire principal will be converted in a SAFE at a pre-agreed cap.

but it's not about making cool new things that everybody is interested on

maybe that's what happens to most (google for example), from being a cool new research program in search and document analysis to just another company trying to make money to keep up

From the looks of it they never turned a reliable profit to pay two developers. They received a one time anonymous donation in 2018[1], that led to the second developer and looks like they were averaging about 16K a year then.

In general, I think what is wrong with this argument is that they are both in the wrong. They founded a company that should have been a 501c and now they are talking about its value as an asset based on the willingness of people to make donations to enable developers to work on a project.

These kinds of cream on the top FOSS projects run as companies are largely relying on naive good will of people who want to fund the best project to adapt open source to them rather than the best portion of open source for them.

I may be mistaken but I was taught that the Constitution was unlike other US laws as it is the foundational law - i.e. the highest law in the land, superseding all other laws. Any law that violates the Constitution is unconstitutional and can be challenged on that ground so as to be stricken down as null and void. What am I missing?

Seriously, anyone who gets their news from the media is trusting someone else's bias AND incompetence, despite us humans being extremely good at hearing only what we want to hear, and subconsciously transforming anything into whatever will support our preferred narrative.

A little work in politics and you will be shocked how far removed any given statement of a politician is from his objectives. "Lets block Russian Oil" could mean "this way we have an excuse for the high gas prices", or it could mean "this way it looks we are doing something" or it could mean "we have been on the phone with Putin, and he promised not to nuke Kiev if we give him a way to save face. This will be renegotiated soon" or many other things that involve many other countries, characters, and calculations. You can read about the sanction and jump to your preferred conclusion, or you can let the media guide you to their preferred jump, but either will guide you wrong if you think you understand the decision without all the relevant facts.

CIA director says he anticipates 'ugly next few weeks' in Ukraine
I remember a slide mentioning I think “up to 7.4gb/sec SSD read/write speed” or similar, which drastically reduces the pool of comparison SSDs. Intel Optane meets those specs, as do a few other brands I hadn’t heard of previously. In the later case, a 2TB version seemed to be $350-400. Take this for what it’s worth, but SSD is going to be more than $100 extra cost imho.
I think this is fantastic! there’s a lot of pessimism here about people kind of assuming you’re taking it out of the spread. Sounds like that’s not happening, and for people who actually use these services they’re going to compare the end amount of final currency among services anyway— which you show front and center. So it almost doesn’t matter what people are saying here but I wonder if there’s a way you can be more transparent about the “live rate.”

Why are other services so expensive?

I don't see India becoming an enemy of the free world any time soon, and the second half of the 21st century is soon in a geopolitical sense (and looming in a my-lifetime sense).

An inward-focussed economic superpower, yeah. (The inward focus is the part of Modi's pitch for India that makes a kind of sense). An enemy of the free world? It's the world's largest democracy with more than one seventh of the population of the free world.

It might have taken Trump only four years to get really close to implementing the collapse of the rule of law in the USA, but the BJP has its work cut out achieving that in India; people will tire of the nonsense.

Edited as to Russia: are you sure it'll be a single, functioning state by the end of this year, let alone for the second quarter of the 21st century? It is heading towards (within weeks of) a kind of economic status that could only be survived by a country that has never experienced modernity, like North Korea.

All my data are in TSV files, separated by tabs instead of comma and strings are not quoted. It makes parsing or manually editing data so much easier. You need to escape only like 5 characters \0 \n \r \\ \t and even binary data will fit in there.

I was checking if sqlite's CSV supports custom separator and unquoted strings for this to work. Found it doesn't.
I use it together with wireplumber on three systems, all running bookworm. One old MacBook Air, a fairly new ThinkPad and a run-of-the-mill desktop PC. Works flawlessly on all of them. I have no custom configuration, all default what comes from the packages.

For the laptops I also use BT headphones, and with the ThinkPad I use a headset that with the latest wireplumber switching profiles just work whenever I join a meeting with Slack or Teams (both in Google Chrome).

For the desktop PC I had a use case I never got working properly, or at least easily, with PA. That is to expose all the HDMI outputs of the graphics card as separate sinks. With PW, just switch over to the Pro profile and they all appear. Then I can route what ever stream/application I want to a specific HDMI output.

Additionally, I use USB MIDI devices and a software synth, qsynth, using JACK. Setting up both MIDI and audio routing via qjackctl is so convenient.

Oh, and USB audio devices also work without a problem. Can't say if that is different from PA as I never used them much before.
