Right, but you'd notice if there was a flame burning when you set your bag on it, unlike the electric element. This was 20+ years ago though, and I believe they all have the illuminated cooking positions when the burners are active now.

> It's been "over" several times already

Yes, but there are concrete reasons it didn't end: new variants showed up, and in the case of omicron in particular it was able to overwhelm resistance established by previous strains.

That can absolutely happen again, but increasing vaccination rates across the globe mean the odds of a new variant are lower.
Do you think Chinese workers who make those masks wouldn't prefer to get paid the American salary for that job? Everybody demands higher wages. The point is that some get the high wages, and some get to produce the cheap goods that make those wages effectively even higher. It's not about any kind of skilful or technological or natural "competitive advantage" - humans are the same everywhere! - it's about how much any given country is willing to abuse its workforce, and how much other countries are willing to look away while benefitting from it.
Ahhhh... I enjoy that too but many places to get that particular kick :)
I've never felt like anyone was reminding me about anything, HN is a site frequented by programmers, it's useful to programmers to see what other programmers are building and with what tools. Rust is popular so we see it a lot but we also see X written in Go, or Y written in Python, and so on.
When I was very young I assumed that Pink Floyd was some dude's name and that he probably started the band because he wanted to prove that just because his name was Pink didn't mean he was girly.
It's easier to be consistent when everyone is on voxels. If you give all of the artists full freedom then it's a lot of work to make things match in one game.

On a non-voxel game it'd be very obvious that there were a bunch of different artists involved who were working somewhat independently.
There is quite a good deal of literature out there suggesting that acupuncture operates via electricity, FWIW.
Yes, and then locate the correct file in it etc.

Or, we could just have the computer do it all for us.

Canceling rides does destroy the system. The solution is to employ the drivers so that they have garantes and protections. Then you can tell them “you must take this ride”.

The issues with Uber is that they are trying to have it both ways. They want employees without paying for employees.
Correct? And yet, with all of that, that old Macbook was a more capable laptop in almost every way than the Framework I have now. It doesn't matter that the Framework has a better CPU or monitor if it dies halfway through even a short flight. And all the extra resolution only helps so much if both Linux and Windows barely handle the resolution/aspect ratio well.

The ports are great - I love that about the Framework, but having an HDMI port only matters so much if the battery is so bad you can't even show a fully movie on a TV with it not plugged in to power (and with a fairly beefy power transformer at that.)

I'm not arguing the Framework isn't more powerful on paper, but functionally, I just can barely use it. I was on a trip the other month and walked to a coffee shop in the morning to do some work and lost 20% of my battery charge on the way to the shop with it just in my backpack. Every minute using it I'm aware of how fast it's discharging in a way that literally no other electronic device I've owned in a decade has made me think about it.

> There’s no upward development of life.

Disagree. Look at our solar system or any other planet. There is no life anywhere. This beautiful blue planet is brimming with life.

Yes we are screwing our planet but that is because we as collective have not become fully conscious about it. There were horrific things done in past by humanity but once a sufficient amount of population reached that point of consciousness where we recognise something is bad we shutdown those things.

I know we are screwing this planet bad but life on this planet continues and it's been this way for millions of years.
speaking for myself, not the OP - I am sitting on the ground, my armchair manufacturer went out of business and the padding turned into a brick when their license server went offline.
So how many lives were saved by vaccines (to the nearest thousand)? And how many by lockdowns?
Hyperbole? I agree with your sentiment, but it's been the 'Internet rant' rhetoric for decades IME. Find a HN thread, with a moderate number of comments, without it.

IMHO, such comments are so tired, poisonous, and add so little that if I were king of HN, I would ban them. They may be hard to define, but 'no hyperole' is a start.
> If we had another spike in 2 weeks that turned out to be the worst so far, would you still say that?

People SHOULD update in light of new evidence. Right now I think I am quite safe from crime. If I get robbed twice next month, I will absolutely re-evaluate that statement.

That said, the most recent spike was vastly milder than previous spikes, so it would be extremely surprising to suddenly have The Worst Spike Ever
Couldn't it be that the brain has an extremely good redundancy setup? Memories stored in several parts of the brain, and recoverable if a part gets damaged?

There are many people who did have permanent memory loss from various TBI (traumatic brain injury), especially gunshot wounds, and many who recovered theirs slowly.

Kind of like restoring data from an archive, or rebuilding a RAID array, as an analogy.
Because conditions are so harsh in third world nations that they have several babies because they have a chance to die more often than the first world.

The USA had the Baby Boomers, then abortion became legal and birth control was invented. So people had fewer children. With vaccines and medicine the children live longer so no need to have several.

Sure the USA needs more babies, but immigrants can fill economic roles for social security reasons and tax reasons.

Just watched it. I can feel the influence of This Is America by Childish Gambino. Quite graphic.
The Holy Roman Empire is as much “The Roman Empire” as the 1400s Byzantine Empire was. So depending on where you choose to draw your historical boundaries, The Roman Empire might still be with us today. Hitler was very explicitly trying to restore the empire that Napoleon had crushed. He obviously failed to achieve that, but very shortly after his failed attempt Europe was united under a single governing entity with Germany arguably having the strongest influence over it.
It's just a conveyor belt of bs. I can't disable comments, chat, etc. I don't care about uploading shorts. I'm tired of constant redesigns or moving things around. I just want to see videos related to what I search for or channels I'm subscribed to.

I instantly feel like I'm capital to be maximized rather than a respected user when I open YouTube.

Edit: While typing this they felt the need to use a push notification for some breaking news video. Add it to the pile of bullshit.
This also happened to Tor Browser, the whole point of which is that you can trust it.

Right, the sidebar (accessible via the hamburger menu on the right) has the former link as “Pipy Documentation”. I just feel that expected landing pages should always say what the thing is. :)
If you're trying to be respectful by deliberately linking to a memorial, it's rather undermined by linking to one for a completely different disaster from what you're describing. The European Gateway collided with another ship. Doors being left open was the Herald of Free Enterprise.
How is latency driving infrastructure changes today?
Now there’s a hot take! In PC land the same bootloader, kernel, config files, etc will work in pretty much computer. Hot swappable components are the norm here.

Meanwhile in ARM/RISC-V embedded land, every chip and every board is its own special snowflake. With no ACPI/UEFI, someone’s gotta hardcode the config of every device on every board, including the ones inside the SoC. Naturally the communities around these boards are even more fragmented than Linux distros already are.
Gather the pars for one as normal, but leave out all the glue and leave the plastic clips undone

Put it in the same container as all the others.

Send it to the same retailer.

If one part fails a lot, shove a crate full of those in the same container.

Maximum cost: Add the fraction of your products that need repairs over wholesale.

If lots of machines need repairs you've fucked up and should he paying more or figuring out better logistics.
Open-source has nothing to do with preventing people from making money. This is like a Microsoft argument from the 90s.
What does this blog article really do that the official page doesn't?
I understand the impulse to simplify things, but there’s an important question that needs to be addressed before doing so. It is the following: why won’t this new, simple protocol accumulate the same complexity as it’s predecessor over time?
Or instead of storing memories, electric fields are used for fast transfers between parts of the brain.

An MRI scan could affect it depending on the frequency? Perhaps a minor, temporary, drop in cognition/memory recall?

You would have to conduct a study specifically for that.
As it's from github project page ---- Pipy is a programmable network proxy for the cloud, edge and IoT.
I had stopped using Vanced a few weeks back, because I couldn’t download videos beyond 360p.

Now I know about Newpipe, but I manually download some videos with youtube-dl and then Syncthing them to my cell phone.

Then watch it with VLC.

It works perfectly fine for me.

Btw, I think they had to stop because they tried to profit from it. I dislike them for it. Apparently they tried to mint NFTs [0]. Later they said it was a joke, but, NFTs were actually minted. So, the joke thing was a cover.

I like some of the ideas behind Gemini, but I'll never get onboard with something made by an individual and not actually standardized by a reputable standards body. BDFL type software will only end up not being accessible to some people and not thinking about concerns that aren't important to the one or two people controlling it (even if a larger open source community develops around it; it's still largely controlled by the person who set the initial direction and did most of the work initially with no collaboration or cooperation from others).

On Mac you can open the Keychain Access app and add whatever secrets or encrypted notes you want, in the local keychain or the iCloud Keychain.
Surely Google has already thought of this.

Is it that Google actually benefits from having an algorithm that is susceptible to being gamed and therefore they are disincentivized to move away from that?

Ignore the issues of dust on the way and the minuscule data rate. The real problem is that your probe, having no way to slow down, is going to blow through the target system at 0.2c, meaning it will pass across the entire system from one side to the other in a few hours and be gone. There's no time to find planets and pan to track them -- assuming the "chip sized" device has the ability to orient itself in any case.
One day maybe wireless power.
A team with a strong product leader who is visionary and empathizes with users will run circles around a loosely organized group of stakeholders/engineers duct taped together by process. The problem is that it is hard to scale.
Roblox, a non-voxel sandbox game, was written before Minecraft, so one answer would be that it's easier to use meshes.

Regarding consciousness, I don't get why people who submit to consciousness being everywhere in the universe have problem with simply calling it the universe. It seems to make discussions much more productive.
I've been enjoying Gemini using Lagrange on desktop and Deedum on mobile. It's reminiscent of the early web: the kind of people who put up Gemini capsules are not talking about the kind of stuff you see on every popular website, so you get detailed idiosyncratic takes on history, technology, politics, religion, crafts — all manner of things. For example, I'm ardently opposed to a particular political point of view, and using Gemini I've found a lot of interesting, introspective writing by people who adhere to it that has given me a new, if not more positive, perspective that I could not have gained on the more public web.

It's worth checking out.
I would certainly hope that an AI would be void of emotions, which I consider to be a relic of our primitive past.

Well, it's not really a relic since it's actually the driving force behind our daily lives and society as a whole, sadly. They do more harm than good in a modern society with billions of individuals.

> I was talking specifically about Finland

Understood, thank you!

More minor points:

> You'd need to build 1300+ 3MW wind turbines

Modern offshore ones develop 12MW, and their load factor peaks at .6

> We had this "too slow to build" -argument 15 years ago, but no other renewables have delivered.

Nuclear isn't a renewable source.
Main problem of Gemini is that it's read-only, by design.

The author of the protocol didn't want to add forms etc, as that adds complexity; but as a result, there is no way to write things. There are no discussions or a way to create "pods" without going back to some other protocol.

I think as a result, most content of Gemini is talking about how Gemini is great and nothing much else.

Look I'm as environmentally conscious as the next guy, but here's the thing I don't quite get about induction - how am I supposed to use a wok, a tagine, or basically anything that is either a non-metallic pan or where you need a flame for the cooking technique? Every time I've talked to induction owners, their answer has been that there are many cuisines they simply don't cook and types of cooking vessels that they don't use.
So the worry is that some fraudster would set up numerous AWS accounts with a number for 2FA which AWS would call, and then they'd ding them for the 25 cent charge?

If actually a problem, having the charge go to charity rather than the recipient would eliminate any monetary incentive. I suppose one is left with someone who has a grudge against AWS trying to bankrupt them 25 cents at a time...
We have a lot more than blind hope, if you care to learn about the state of fusion research today.

Sponsorblock looks pretty harmless as far as affecting creators getting paid, it doesn't seem to do anything that can't be replicated by hitting your right arrow key a couple times so weird place to draw the line in my opinion. Pretty sure sponsors can't tell if people fast forwarded through the sponsored section.
Aha, I got what you say. It's a dynamic sentence on the welcome page, like "Pipy is xxxxx". Probably it doesn't fit on mobile browser, :D
Yeah, it is certainly possible that it affects health. However, since we decided to live with such technology as a society, we'll have to deal with it.

People living in cities (or anywhere really) don't complain much about the massive amount of exhaust from cars, which is definitely proven to be bad for everyone's health despite all attempts at reducing it. It's just there, we won't give up cars, so everyone just kind of ignores it.

That’s a good decision.

I know both Keras and PyTorch, and I will recommend PyTorch any day.

I haven’t used TF/Keras in the last 2.5 years outside of Edge AI projects- neither at work nor at personal projects.

JAX is interesting, though. But definitely not advisable as someone's first DL framework.
i apologize if you were insulted, but this comment reads like a justification for racism.
> Is 0.9mm really worth throwing away so many phones?

Quite the opposite. I want larger/heavier devices. Make my phone a bit thicker and heavier and sturdier, please. I feel the same about a laptop. I recently got a new laptop, and the flimsiness of high-end machines was a turnoff. The salesman kept saying "but it's only X lbs, so much lighter" as though that was a selling point. But I want strong hinges, large replaceable batteries, etc. I could care less about 3 vs 7 lbs.
What I do is set a reverse NAT rule that reverse proxies 8.8.8.8 to my DNS, so to devices where it's hardcoded, they can't tell the difference.
The first uses of literacy seem to be enabling beauracracy. Taxes, business records, laws, standardising things. The art stuff seems to have come later.
Great question! Core developer here, and I haven't thought about this too much.

I think one benefit this gives us is on the artist contribution side. Being an art contributor on the project has a lot less overhead of being a formal "artist", since you can quite easily make fauna or creatures or just concept art. We've seen lots of this in our blog posts!

But also, in terms of terrain itself, I think it allows us to really crank up how wild and wacky our procedural generation is, and still have a great looking world (unlike something higher-fidelity like No Man's Sky). We do a lot of cool things under the hood; we have a full erosion system that creates the mountains out of the sea, a site system that places villages in places that make sense, and the ability to mash together shapes that then get "rasterized" into voxel houses. I don't know how much of this would be possible and still look alright if we weren't taking a voxel approach.
Most of the time these malicious attacks will come from a data center, where someone is no doubt leasing some hardware until they get shut down.

When I get any number of malicious known attack vectors, I have a process that runs a few services against the IP for geolocation and server info. If it's a known data center, its block is immediately blocked, otherwise just the IP.

For whatever reason, they tend not to get new ips easily, so shutting down the IP will usually buy a few days before they have a new instance on qualys or whatever.
From what I’ve seen over the slab of a few days in the past when NYT acquired the Wordle site, the word list has been changed in the current NYT game by removing/replacing (because NYT thought those are difficult) and reordering some words.

At the time NYT acquired the Wordle site, clones of the site without any changes came up. One of them is wordle.nyc.

Since the original Wordle was completely self contained on the front end, you could just save the clone site locally (with the HTML, CSS and JS) and play it on a browser.
> I linked her personal justification below

Might you try sharing that again? :)
Super thoughtful, thanks. Notably these are all social or legal rather than technical in nature and that does seem to be a viable way to tackle this. There are a number of ventures that have stayed relatively consistent over time (like hundreds of years) by staying small and focused [0]. I hope that postgres and linux will be on that list in 1000 years.

Still, pretty curious about if we might be able to enforce it at the infrastructure level (e.g. build something that technically cannot be co-opted) rather than trust humans not to take a liquidity event. I think part of the bandcamp outrage emerged because the epic acquisition went agains what people thought was the preceived "stay indie" company ethos. I'm definitely not one of the people mad about it (I took an exit!), but the level of outrage + looking at these blockchain incumbents (which look scammy but perhaps technically interesting) has me thinking there might be a way.

The Gemini guys actually think about this a lot so they're working to make the protocol the least extensible as possible or not extensible at all. They plan to freeze the spec forever after 1.0
If I sold a transparency with nothing but a twirly mustache on it, sized & positioned so that it perfectly placed the mustache on the original Mona Lisa if placed within the frame, would that be a derivative work?

Could you provide an example of a standards body along the lines of what you would accept which is not primarily comprised of and funded by commercial interests?
You’re implying that giving money to Alphabet is a good way of doing that. I don’t think that’s even remotely true.
This has been my experience, along with most great product leaders I’ve known have been “promoted” from developers/engineering as opposed to from the business end. Most devs/engineers I know also don’t want to take on this responsibility because they would rather be developing rather than overseeing product development.
Whether or not this is true, ECT memory loss is not hard to believe. I don't mean that the mechanism is obvious (it isn't), but only that the result is not very surprising.

Neurons communicate via electric signals. There are multiple reasonnable ways to implement a memory based on that substrate, but the interface is almost certainly going to be through axons.

There must be a way, whatever it may be, to query and to alter the brain's memory through its interface. We don't have to know precisely how the system works to predict that fuzzing the interface might result in adverse effects.

That remains true whether the underlying storage is in the field, in synapses, a more complicated change in gene expression, or some other property of the cell.
Can you provide any references to said literature?
Wow. I'm looking at only one of my servers and there is a root login attempt every second. I feel a little embarrassed I am surprised by this.

My devices just sit on a desk lol. I have two laptops working as servers in another room.

But if you wanted to be safer from a potential fire, a metal cabinet is the simplest way to do it.

A deflagration from a lithium battery would just heat it up a bit, maybe start burning other stuff inside, but it's highly unlikely to spread beyond that as it would fizzle out due to lack of fuel (also temperature).
