Americans don’t want to live in small apartments, and large portion haven’t had to do so for 50 years. Building more small units with no yard to replace the housing that is most desirable is not something Americans will be willing to accept.

HN is biased towards tearing down beautiful old high quality of life neighborhoods for more multifamily housing.

I think that’s fundamentally the wrong approach, because that isn’t what the market wants. What we should be asking is:

* how can we construct new neighborhoods similar to early 1900s single family neighborhoods? Walkable urban cores surrounded by houses in small lots?

* can we decentralize jobs over more area to enable less dense housing options for more people—Why aren’t we building new cities?

* How can we make housing construction cheaper? Low density housing is generally the cheapest to construct by square foot excluding the land (see above on decentralization of jobs). Still, what makes new construction so expensive is extremely high labor and material costs. Why did a new house cost a few years’ average salary in the early 1900s, and 6-10x the average salary now?
> At the start of the second round of the rehearsal, participants are given feedback based on various performance metrics from the activities of the previous day. Detailed data are provided that show the ideal versus the actual performance. The participants discuss among themselves three issues: (1) what went wrong, (2) what we will do differently this time, and (3) how will we know it is working.

This strikes me as the exact heart of agile methodology in practice. The best retrospectives, for projects, for incidents, for goals, etc all revolve around these three questions. Being truly able to openly question and challenge your own behavior as a team of peers helps you grow and adapt.

It’s just so damned hard to create or sustain the conditions to generate that kind of trust and autonomy.
The stats can be a bit deceptive when it comes to motorbikes. Focusing on the first world (where I know the situation) the death rate for 16-24 year old males is massive relative to cars while 25+ is much closer to normal vehicle deaths.

In terms of organ donation, that is because an astonishing amount of people don't wear a helmet when on a motorcycle or wear one of those fashionable open-face helmets.

Many people are also unaware you can get airbags for motorcyclists (https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-tech-air-5-s...). This is obviously a thing more for first world riders and they are expensive but are very effective at preventing any injury you can't walk away from (assuming you also wear a proper helmet like I mentioned).

The old (by now) CMOSIS CMV12000 does 4000x3000 pixels at 10bit per pixel and 300 Hz.

It reads the 4000 pixel rows in parallel, from the bottom and the top.
There's no hard reason why this couldn't be extended to a larger sensor, with the per-row time at-worst linearly increasing with the row count (due to capacitance on the column-lines). But even then, the row count would only have quadratic influence on the readout time, and the column count not at all. Combines to, for fixed aspect ratio, a constant number of pixels-per-second.

So going to the 8k equivalent of 8000x6000 pixels (48MP), you'd quarter those 300fps and still have 75fps left. Assuming you take wide-screen video of 8000x4320 (some sacrificial columns that don't matter for speed and double the rows of "4K" (2160p)), the reduced row count would take that up to ~104fps.

Oh, that chip also has a pipelined electronic global shutter, so you can take the long exposure of a HDR stack while the short exposure is being read out. Also no jello and shutter down to 1/50000.

How big of a sensor were you thinking, that RAW video recording would be inconceivable for the big sensor? And yeah, sure, you'll have to do something with those many gigabits. It's about 36 Gbit/s for the above example. A PCIe4x4 connection would do, but you'd need about 2-and-a-half PCIe4 M.2 SSD's worth of sustained sequential write to handle uncompressed RAW.
Might have to tap on it and drag up. If it takes up too much of the picture, it won't have a neutral reference in the background to help figure out how bright the room is supposed to look. (Cameras usually just work off the picture they're taking to determine this, and yet everyone says they're too smart.)

I have the same problem with a black cat that turns brown if you try to expose off it.

On the other hand, the unexpectedly unified response of the EU here may give him some pause should he decide to take the next step toward the Baltics.

I think the comparison with Poland is not apt (despite the stunning similarities in the headlines - which make this a fantastic read), because Hitler's invasion of Poland triggered a declaration of war by the Allies, which Hitler was prepared for, and whom he invaded directly afterwards. This step by Putin is more similar to the invasion of Czechoslovakia, which met little enough resistance that he was emboldened to go after Poland. The Allies did help to arm Poland in the months after Czechoslovakia fell, as we're arming and moving troops to Latvia now, but England and France continued to pursue appeasement with Hitler. And in any case, Hitler had good reason to believe he could win a war in the West without American involvement, and given his pact with Stalin. Putin's pact with China looks a lot shakier; the West's reaction to a non-alliance country's invasion is much more united; the signals don't point to the idea that Putin could win any territory against NATO. If Germany were still debating the nordstream pipeline, if Orban had gotten on his side, if the sanctions had not been as extreme, he might take that as a signal that we were able to be picked off. So I think some differences apply.

It's true that our reaction to Crimea was akin to the West's reaction to Hitler's initial occupation of the Sudetenland, so he probably assumed this would go as well as Czechoslovakia... but thankfully it looks like he's a step behind.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Authentication services company Okta Inc said on Tuesday it is investigating a report of a digital breach after hackers posted screenshots of what they claimed were its internal company environment.

A hack at Okta could have potential major consequences because thousands of other companies rely on the San Francisco-based firm to manage access to their own networks and applications.

The screenshots were posted by a group of ransom-seeking hackers known as LAPSUS$ on their Telegram channel late on Monday.
Sure, but motorcyclist injuries where the rider isn't wearing a helmet are like car injuries where the passengers aren't wearing seatbelts. That being said I was astounded when I was in the Southern US the number of people I saw riding their motorbikes without helmets. Must feel amazing but I would never ever risk that in a million years. You don't even need to fall far or fast for a head blow to scramble you.
In commodity markets it's usually the producers of commodities who hold short positions as hedges.

If the price of Nickel skyrockets, their shorts will lose money but their inventory will also become more valuable. But due to the nature of the instrument, they need to come up with additional margin for mark to market losses. This isn't a question of solvency but of liquidity.If there's a short squeeze and the price gets completely disconnected from fundamentals, the producers and the brokers might go under and speculators who held long positions will make a massive profit. I don't see how that is more socially useful than the exchange stepping in to correct a market failure.

The participants in commodity markets produce literal tangible goods, it's not a casino.

The American Stock Exchange (the "Curb Exchange") re-created their early days for this film.[1] See all the hand signals, and the history. Which is very funny.

I wish VoIP was better supported on phones, but I’m guessing the phone manufacturers wouldn’t dare annoy the big carriers by offering alternatives?

Circuits on packets on circuits on packets is a problematic thing, I guess?

I don’t really want SMS, MMS, or raw calls if I can use email, IM, and VoIP.

Even in iOS the VoIP clients are pretty thin on the ground. Bria is still the best one? It feels like “wifi calling” is probably VoIP but it without the ability to change your sip provider. Argh!

Or nothings a copy. Maybe. Either way I'm with you. And I'm looking forward to watching Tetsuo Iron Man.
Thank you! I enjoy it!
>I suppose for those who consciously or subconsciously know they're guilty of sin, the idea of annihilation is far preferable to facing judgment for their sins in the past, so I can see how atheism would be an attractive option, ultimate meaninglessness notwithstanding. But Christianity is primarily about what to do with that guilt -- that God's son Jesus paid the price for your sin and mine, and he offers forgiveness to those who will trust him and call on his name. (And I'm sure you've heard that before.)

Your comment and a lot of others seem to presuppose that atheists don't genuinely not believe in God, there must be some sort of rejection of a God that exists or some conscious/unconscious attempt to avoid taking responsibility for something.

My not being a Christian is really simple. It has nothing to do with my ideas on the bible or morality in general. nothing to do with whether or not I'm a sinner (I agree with you and Christianity that everyone falls very short of moral perfection), it has nothing to do with my personal happiness or making it easier for me to sleep at night.

I simply don't believe that supernatural events exist. Nothing I have heard, discussed, read, watched or experienced in my life has convinced me that supernatural things happen in a general sense or that the specific supernatural things that are essential to believing in Christianity have happened.
This strenuous denial consumes life and effort, and for what? What do you win? Why do you care? All I can tell you is good news: These are wonderful, incredible things in the humanities, in Shakespeare, that will change you.

An experienced developer looks at code and forms perceptions 100x faster and more accurately than someone without expertise. Their brain is wired differently by their experiences, and they look for and pick out patterns, process their meaning, and understand them, all in moments without conscious thought. Similarly, someone with expertise in wine can perceive far more in a glass than someone who doesn't. I'm mostly in the latter group; often I don't know the difference.

But that doesn't imply that no difference exists; reality doesn't exist or not because I perceive it. I have no doubt that those differences exist and that the person with expertise gets far more out of that glass than I do, sees far more color and detail and shapes and images, and I take the gap between my experience and theirs as a signal that it's a fruitful territory for learning. If I denied that, and things like it, I would wall myself off from much learning.

But I can watch Shakespeare and see far more than most people who haven't studied and learned literature and arts more generally. In case you think it, I don't worship William Shakespeare, I love the works. Shakespeare is not a god and the plays are not scripture that I've been instructed to praise, but Shakespeare is just a person - like HN commenters - who made something incredible, and my experience has led me to the same response as so many others over 400 years.

I have never encountered these but if I did I think I’d do poorly and not sweat it. It’s definitely an easy conversation point with the hiring manager and will tell me a lot about their culture.

The interviews I hate are when they are so optimized I can’t get any information out of the process. Leakiness of data is something I desire greatly as the other participant and I think as an org I also strive to leak as much about our culture as possible in our interview process.
A lot of battery controllers are intentionally designed to make the batteries unusable if the cells are removed for even a moment. Sometimes the controller uses a volatile ROM that wipes itself when it loses voltage, other times there's software actively looking for it and stopping the controller from working when detected. It's very consumer unfriendly in general for batteries that the consumer supposedly owns, but for batteries that are more loaned property like this it's a reasonable anti-tamper system.

> Rome wasn't found upon rebellion

Myths aside, we don't really know anything about the founding of Rome. But it's clear that (like the United States), Rome was originally a "frontier" place, situated at the intersection of several older groups of Italic peoples.

> it didn't have a civil war at the scale of america

The Social War would certainly beg to differ - a war fought over who got to be full-fledged members of the Roman community.

> it didn't have WMDs, fighter jets, interlinked supply chains and the internet.

One of the most stunning features of the late Roman Republic (and subsequent Empire) is the degree to which trans-Mediterranean trade takes off in the second century B.C.E. after the Roman defeat of Carthage. By the standards of the ancient world, the late Roman Republic was incredibly interconnected.

I'm not trying to argue that the parallel totally fits or that the outcome will be the same. But I think there are more similarities here than you give credit for.
Can confirm. I had just tucked into bed when this tweet got shared with me. Now, in the "is it real or not" stage I'm refreshing constantly, trying to decide if I should go back to bed because folks know how to page me or if it makes more sense to just stay up. If I'm going to get paged in an hour anyway, might as well know what's going on.

This is what i recommend to everybody who wants to read code. Why? Because the books explain the Design behind the Code lacking which, it is quite difficult to understand the code-base. Also you get an exposure to a bazillion different projects which is crucial to "grok" Software Architecture and Large-Scale Design.

It is rather appalling. I recently listened to a podcast about a police station in a small city that was compromised and all their data ransomed. They had a contract company that handled all their cyber security needs. The "security" company had an RDP port open to the world to an admin account on the server that ran everything for the police station and city. In order to protect the employees webmail, they required that you login from an internal IP and so they gave this admin remote desktop account credentials to employees that needed to check their email remotely. They could login to the server with the admin account and then use the browser on the server to log in to their webmail. The same set of root admin credentials was given to every employee. It's just insanity. And I'm sure that government contractor was hella expensive.

Sure, but making you wait 20 seconds isn't going to make a noticeable difference there.
And this is why I would ultimately never trust a centralised company with our authentication infrastructure: because something like Okta is an infinitely more attractive target than we are. Their offering is sweet, and I’m always tempted to just give in, but this confirms me in my decision.

I doubt too many people are using Okta as a regular consumer. If your work stuff uses it, the general advice has always been to keep it aggressively partitioned from your personal life. Hacked or not, your IT admin has always had access to everything, and I don't know if I'd trust them with my data any more than Lapsus$.
I'd also argue Infernal Affairs has a far superior ending.

A million times this.

I use x. Y exists. When someone pitches y to me, I'm happy to stipulate that y is better. (it is, or isn't, but that doesn't matter, so I'm happy to concede/ignore that point.)

The question is, will Y compile all my existing code? Since the answer to that is no you are suggesting either

A) we rewrite existing code in Y. Or
B) we add resources enough to build new stuff in y while maintaining the existing in x.

That becomes an economic question not a technical one. Also what happens when all my highly qualified, experienced, and proficient X leave (cause their careers just came to a dead end) and in left with the thing we actually sell and no one to support it?

Swapping y for x sounds like a technical decision, but is far more an economic /existential decision for some part of the business [1].

Wasn't the dictator aspect built into their system though? I thought the point was that Rome felt dictators were needed in times of crises. I think the term was 6 months.
They can. Although incredibly rare. There are a few military airplanes that use reversers in flight to quickly drop altitude, but not used in any commercial passenger airplane that way. That scenario of only one opening, is also addressed in the video from Mentour Pilot that I linked. A few minutes earlier in the video. They have a checklist for it.
What do you mean 'never pans out'? Devices like moto g phones with 5000mAH are huge hits.

AWS has had a Top Secret-certified region (AWS Top-Secret-East) since 2014. IIRC, it's physically located on-site at the NSA. They launched a Secret-certified region in 2017, and just launched a second TS region on the West Coast in Dec. 2021.

Government is big business for AWS.

>That doesn't sound like they were using SSL for authorization.

Not for authorization. As explained in the article, the man-in-the-middle attack was successful because the app didn't use SSL pinning. This allowed for them to decrypt the traffic between the app and the server; they could then view the API calls and get an understanding of how it worked. The traffic would have otherwise been encrypted.
