Probably when my <50yo dad stops asking me to change the font size on his phone everytime he changes it. The thing is, technology is just a tool for most people and except software engineers almost no one wants to spend any time dealing with anything that they would have to configure. Until the day linux based OSes come pre-installed with sane defaults that work out of box on laptops, the average person won't use it.
I was refuting "if anything is broken in hardware to send it back to the mothership for repair/replace" which is not true. They are capable of replacing components. In OP's case, they obviously misdiagnosed that the entire logic board needed replacement.

OP never said what the kiosk employee needed to do to get the phone operational, but given that it took less than two minutes, they likely didn't re-solder anything either.
Does the rule apply to all shareholders? I don't really see how a publically traded company can put an arbitrary condition on what can be done like that - any borrowing can be a totally private deal between you and a bank (or another private individual) - Tesla isn't even privvy to such deals, so how can they enforce any rules about them?
> Couldn't he have more noble causes in mind like trying to do the right thing for humanity (e.g. Tesla, SpaceX)?

Right, which is pretty much where we are now: very fat margins largely because fabs have been banging up against capacity for a while now because they could. (i.e. to avoid the risk of overcapacity... why take a chance if you don't have to?) In a more perfect world with healthy competition, one or more of them would see the lack of capacity and see opportunity to take the risk to build a new fab to take some of that business. The fact that it's basically governments saying 'you will do this' tells you everything you need to know about how much the players are really driven by competition.

It's a great time to be a semi manufacturer: TSMC has customers like Apple funding their expansion, Intel has the U.S. government funding theirs. Can you blame them? A decade of record profits isn't what it used to be...

The point is that 10% swing in Google's performance (in either direction) has much bigger impact on stock price than 1000% swing in SpaceX performance.

I have about 5 ARM-based systems running in my house right now. None of them are Apple.

This is what I use for my file server:

https://ameridroid.com/products/odroid-hc4

Runs Debian (Armbian). Provides file shares over SMB, Syncthing, S3 (Minio). Also does some monitoring of other systems via Prometheus scraping of node-exporter. Everything except Samba runs in containers.

With two mirrored 6TB HDDs it has no problem keeping up with the household 1GbE network. Quad A55 cores, 4GB with Zram and it has all the power I need.
> If you live in an area that primarily gets electricity from coal plants, the break even point for a Model 3 to gas cars is 80,000+ miles [1]. EVs aren't some magic carbon-negative solution, and the politics Musk plays to get raw materials are a net negative for the planet as a whole.

[1] https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/lifeti...

Do you have a bone to pick with EVs? This seems cherry-picked/straw man to me.

The 80k+ you refer to assumes electricity is sourced 100% from coal, which happens never in the US.

Even West Virginia, a haven for coal, it’s only 88%. Wyoming is also in the 80s. There are a few in the 50-70 range, but most states are sub-35, with many being 0.

[edit] For our most populous states, CA checks in at 0.1%, NY 0.1%, FL 7%, and TX 16%.

This article shows how US sources of electricity have changed in the past 20 years or so.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/12/24/climate/how-e...

Contrary to what you state, I would say that EVs are doing a good job at lowering overall emissions from passenger vehicles, and this will become more true as renewables increase their percentage in our electricity production mix.
> It is impossible to optimize a service without transparency into what it is providing and which of those results are useful.

People created excellent UIs in the "shrink wrap" software era before people even had network connections. In fact, many would argue that some of these UIs were simpler and cleaner and overall better.

Oh wait... if by optimize a service you mean optimize it for engagement (addiction, triggering, controversy) then I agree.
It’s possible, and very easy, to generate yaml with a bunch of for-loops and side-effects in an imperative language.

So without knowing anything about cdk, even if it is declarative, I don’t think your conclusion is applicable.

Terraform, the language, works differently. While it has variables, you can not store state in variables and depend on side effects based on the order you read/write such variables. Every assignment and execution order of resources is purely based on dependency order and not based on the order of the lines in your code.

It’s close and the 10gb networking makes it attractive.

However it maxes out at 16gb ram (a Nuc 9 goes to 64) and virtualisation isn’t quite there yet I don’t think. Fusion says it supports the M1 but I don’t get good results.

IANAL, but wouldn’t it make more sense if they forced owners of these licensed services to maintain security cameras that they could then use a warrant to gain access to?

Well yeah, of course you would be concerned if that stopped happening, even more so if it means the CEO is suddenly compelled sell a bunch of his stock at a discount to avoid violating his debt covenants. You don’t get any upside from the twitter deal, so unless you think Musk will use Twitter to boost Tesla’s price (suppressing bad news?), it seems like all downside for current Tesla owners.

I think you have a bone to pick with Tesla, if you're singling them out for build quality issues when we know many other manufacturers have them as well. Tesla might have some different build quality issues (like their panel gaps being worse than other manufacturers, or their noise isolation being behind luxury brands) but plenty of other manufacturers have terrible build quality.

Also, plenty of other manufacturers have almost gone bankrupt (or gone bankrupt) as well.

Mach-e looks like a great option. I'm skeptical their autopilot will work as well but it certainly looks like tesla has some competitors, but we'll see if they can scale up production.
> Floridians said, ‘You are a guest. Maybe you don’t deserve the special privileges anymore.’”

I think a company that owns land and has contributed billions to the local economy over the past 50+ years is something more than a "guest." Unless, of course, all those retirees and children and grandchildren of Cuban refugees are also merely "guests."
> The mouthwash group did worse than the control group for some reason.

I give it higher odds that the study's results were based on bad statistics, or an insufficient sample size, than that there's an actual notable difference here.

I see a lot of references to NN512 in HN and while I'm quite a fan of the idea of a high performance, well crafted neural network code generator, I'm afraid such a library answers to only a very small part of the problem.

But, on the NN512 page I don't see how to take an existing trained network (from tensorflow, torch, mxnet, onnx...) to generate the code? I'm not sure whether NN512 does any of the quite efficient layer fusion or layer-op fusions.

How does it compare, with openvino, tvm, tensorrt (I'm restricting myself to C/C++ stuff, but comparing to the python stuff would be nice too)?

When one says 'far outperforms' other libraries I'd rather like to know all that. And ConvNet is quite old now, many state of the art network architecture are going away from pure cnns and going into rnns, transformers, and even deeper networks where I'm not sure AVX512 really helps (except for batching and even then...).

As for 'human readable' that's quite the stretch, if you're not an avx512 intrinsic reader it's quite the sequence of instructions.

Is there a comprehensive, recent, answer to all or some of this in the NN512 docs, that I missed?

Also it seemed last time that I checked that the author had tried to monetize the project somehow and was quite disheartened and was (iirc?) kind of abandoning the effort? I can understand how the ML/AI inference can be discouraging, and how hard it is to follow the big 2 (tf, torch) even for deep pocket orgs. Can't imagine how much people like FINN/Tensil/Tenstorrent will spend supporting all operators... And new ones keep appearing...

Hey HN! Didn't expect to see Fig here this morning.

We just released a new version of Fig that allows users to install a custom input method on macOS. This means we now work with over a dozen new terminals, including all JetBrain IDEs, Alacritty, Kitty, WezTerm and more.

The engineering behind it was surprisingly tricky since these APIs are not as well documented as you'd hope. (Indeed, the best place to look is the C header files [0])

But with a lot of trial and error, we've managed to get an implementation we're happy with. (That said, if anyone has tips on how to install an input method, without requiring a system restart, I'd love to hear them!)

I'll be around all day to answer any questions about how Fig works under the hood!

--

Also just to address some stuff that generally comes up when we're posted on HN:

1. Why is there a login?

Autocomplete is just our first product, and it's part of a suite of tools focused on improving developer experience in the terminal. The idea is that you can configure your developer environment in Fig and then we'll sync it across all of your devices.

2. Is there telemetry?

Yes, but you can opt-out entirely by running a single command.

fig settings telemetry.disabled true

3. How will Fig make money?

Fig will always be free for individuals. Teams pay for Fig for collaboration and discovery of internal scripts and for managing dev environment setup and onboarding.

4. Is there a Linux/Windows version?

We are making really good progress and will have a prototype in the next month or so. See the Github issues for Linux[1] and Windows[2]

I can select a web browser that displays colors how I’d prefer, just as I select a monitor.

The problem is that the web as currently constituted allows (encourages) the web page author to dictate my experience and my browser will mostly obey.

I’d prefer that there be no such thing as “pages”, just “information”, and that all display decisions would be made by software I completely control.
Seems a bit coincidental and funny that the two comments on this are from "jesuslop" and "sirsinsalot" :)
It's not clear to me that onshoring would be without utility if it's not on the current node. Surely there are vast improvements to security and defense concerns to be had through onshoring even if it's (conservatively) 3 years behind the cutting edge.

There's also a good possibility that this would be useful in the market as well if it solves some supply chain issues. Car manufacturers won't need 3nm tech for quite some time, if ever. Hobbyist boards like the Pi have been hard to get for months now. Graphics cards that were 2-3 years old were going for huge premiums up until recently as well. All in all it seems as if there would be at least some markets for chip tech that isn't on the bleeding edge.
Man this is another good example of the quote:

"Never underestimate the value of a 'good-enough' solution"

I commenting as a multi-decade programmer, but alas I know nothing about color ! Even though I've dabbled in graphics here and there in my career. (this is just for background)

My main point is that, as "technical person" with NO skin in the game. I can honestly say I can't see the difference, or if I can, why one is better or not.
Not saying it should not be fixed, but if I am a sample of the "ignorant majority" that don't know about colors should this bother me ? Or bother me more ?

I hope I'm not offending the "experts in this field" just saying, your clueless audience(me) don't even know what is wrong :)

The media and public sentiment shouldn't have anything to do with it.

The key to all this is if you have rights to where you are dumping/storing waste.

If you own the land and aren't damaging others, then you get to do it.

If you dump on someone else's property, they might shoot you.

Then entire selling point of libertarianism is that the opinions of others are irrelevant because there it minimal government power.

No, they were a power house. We will know if they still are a powerhouse if a year from now we no longer have these kinds of discussions.
To be fair, 3.5mm and 1/4" are virtually equivalent ports, and the only reason 1/4" is used for audio interfaces is because of convention (and probably because it's easier to grab). Converters between them should be dirt cheap.

This also peaked by interest, as well as the general concept or royalty investing. But so far, I haven't found anything that seems worth it. First, none of the royalty are guaranteed, so you could buy something that may or may not get the same returns year in and year out. Some of the royalties are small slices of certain songs, like a small writer credit - so you are not clear on exactly what is being bought with out more research. As an example there have been songs like jcole + kanye west workout / workout plan. There were a bunch of songs, three may be considered well known, but you are getting a small slice from one writer in that case. So you really need to dive into what is being bought. Best case I can see on the songs is that maybe one day some movie or tv show uses the music and you get a nice bump in earnings, or there is some popular cover in the future. 100k a year royalties, not guaranteed might make sense at a million which gets you a 10% return which is decent, but this trades more like a bond. Your resale may not be great if interest wanes in this royalty exchange and you can get more stable returns in the bond market in vanguard (trading actual bonds not etf's). I like to invest in what I understand and what is simple, this just so far is not. I do use Listerine zero (less intense / alcohol free) which I'm not sure counds in this stream. I haven't bought the original in a long time, since it has no flouride.
Signaling maybe? When Fox was becoming the 4th TV network, they massively overpayed for NFL football, but it sent the message to affiliates that they were serious and not half-assing it.

Thumbs.db files are created on my windows 11 pc at least. They’re only created for files that have metadata that requires reading those files. Explorer likes to display the metadata (sometimes) for some folders that have a lot of media in it (pictures, music, videos, etc). If the thumbs.db file is missing, windows will partially read every media file on the server to show thumbnails, that obviously creates unnecessary load but it’s really a trade off that might not make sense for most.

After accidentally abandoning my likes/dislikes and disengaging disgust, my experience of music viscerally changed. I can enjoy all music now.

So much of it is conditioning, maybe all of it. There's conditioning around chords, progressions, dissonance, harmony, repetition, subjective ideas of what constitutes music, and so much more.

The only way to prove it isn't mere conditioning is to remove the conditioning and then evaluate.
They have been for awhile. Georgia, for instance.

They’ve been threatening countries like Finland, Sweden, etc. every time they consider it too.

When it was non-western aligned Soviet breakaway republics, it was easier to ignore.

The invasion of Ukraine was too obvious and ham handed. Moscow has doubled down on the threats to those on the fence since then, enough to push folks back over to the other side.

Which likely just pushes Russia more solidly into doubling down/existential threat mode.

Maybe. GitHub and others have deeper pockets and provide more services (CI/CD) and so they have more ways to monetize (build cycles, private repos, org sizes, and so on).
The intent of these IDs is to be used e.g. as primary keys in a database, and the timestamp improves sortability, helping the database engine pack tuples that are related "in time" into the same pages, which decreases the need for seeks. You can't split the ID and timestamp fields apart; the intent is that they are spatially and temporally related.

USA has plenty of older fabrication labs, and most of our critical technology is probably on 22nm or 40nm nodes (or older).

US Military equipment is pretty famously on old nodes / older technology for reliability and supply chain purposes for example. And its probably entirely domestic (Micron, Intel, GloFo).

The need for higher-end nodes is almost a "luxury" factor. There's a benefit if the latest iPhones were brought onshore and were US-made. This is for economic reasons (less economic disruption if China attacks Taiwan), even if it leads to slightly higher costs.

I know that TSMC is pissed off at the "culture clash" in Arizona (one of these "on shore" US fab-labs) however. I can pretty much imagine a "Gung Ho" (1986 movie) situation occurring there. It doesn't look like the Arizona fab-lab will be complete in time, and TSMC is blaming US worker culture.
