I don't buy the overall train of thought, but math doesn't check out, unless he's using numbers I'm not aware of. Commonly accepted number of neurons in the brain: 86B.

86B x 2000 = 172e+12 = 172 PFLOPs.

That was about putting olivine in seawater, not spreading it on soil.

My concern with all these approaches is the nickel content of olivine, which can be several tenths of a percent.

You do realize this means all the user data has to be sent to the cloud? Which is what we want to escape? Hypermedia was created for bots for discoverability, I don't know why anyone would think this is an user-centric concept.
Your welcome. I keep my eye on both Odin and Vlang. And if a person has experience with Go, they offer some different features and freedoms that might have been wanted, but couldn't get. Additionally, it's not too difficult to switch among the languages as well, if one is strongly familiar with one of them.
> which is tied to lexical scope

This isn't really true. It is kinda true in C++ but fairly well fixed with moves. In Rust it isn't true at all because moves are the default so any time you return a value or put it in a data structure the lifetime is no longer lexically bound.

> It's hardly "wrong by default" and more "understandably different."

I think it is both. What I mean by "wrong by default" is that if you write

f = open(name)

The code is now wrong. This is the default behaviour. To make the code corred you need to add a second bit of code (a close call). Defer is a powerful mechanism to do that, but it is a tool to solve the core wrongness.

Show HN: I Made a Tinder for Audiobooks
Wow. Is it really cheaper? I've been living in the Netherlands for two years, and never noticed it.

Granted, I don't see Hershey's as much... and I've seen some times Lindt for way cheaper than I expected in the street market, but even so I had no idea...
The Rich Are Not Who We Think They Are. and Happiness Is Not What We Think It Is
Hi HN! I just built this. It's a tool for "random sampling" audiobooks. :)

I read a lot of books, but I always find it hard to discover the next book worth reading. Reviews are second-hand knowledge, and often contradicting. And when I try to search based on my own ideas about what topics, authors or narrators I *think* I would like, it easily becomes a mental prison from which the world of books seems so much smaller than it really is...

There was a post here on HN last week that mentioned random sampling. I can't seem to find it anymore. But the author argued, when the search space of something is too big for one humans brain to grok the full landscape, just randomly picking an item and rolling with it can really help. That idea stuck with me. And so I built this tool, to apply it to audiobooks!

I think it's quite fun to use:

1. When you open the site, it starts playing a random audiobook sample.

2. You can skip, or you can give a score between 1 and 5.

3. All the titles that you scored are being kept in your personal favorites list, sorted by your score.

The titles that you liked best automatically rise to the top of that list. Which makes it really easy to decide what to read next.

The samples, for now, are straight from Audible. There is an option to deselect certain categories. Otherwise, it's totally random.

I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to ask any questions.

P.S. On desktop, you can use keyboard shortcuts (1-5 to rate and spacebar to skip). Also, if you create an account, that'll save your progress and allow you to access and extend your book list across devices.
I bought a pinephone and I've been kind of thinking about the economics of it lately. It's a niche product, you're never going to sell a lot of units, but the customer base is kind of a sweet ride. technical people who will fix their own problems, and in exchange for keeping things open, you don't even have to deal with the software side at all. you just release the hardware and let people figure it out themselves. If you're gonna do low volume, it doesn't seem like the worst market segment to target

What intrigues me is that once we achieve HUMAN level intelligent AI, that wouldn't be end of evolution/growth, imaging 5 yeas after human-level achievement. Machine AI wouldn't be bound by Theory-Of-Evolution-By-Natural-Selection-In-A-Million-Year. So the logical conclusion is, Humans would be inferior intelligence after that point !!! Just imagine.
What else can I change?
IQ is not a predictor of success. Very often, a high IQ even correlates with some handicap, e.g. adhd, asperger's, bipolar disorder etc.
These are people who generally due to their handicap have it much harder in society, not easier.
Beyond that, IQ is about logical thinking ability. But the actions which make you successful might not be at all logical/rational.
Furthermore, gifted children often suffer from loneliness. This can affect their development and directly affect their social status and "success" in life.
> It’s not archival quality but it’s more than fine for videoconferencing starting from around Haswell.

My 2015 MacBook Pro with Broadwell i5 would indeed work "fine" for videoconferencing (in my case Google Meet), but it would also use most of a CPU core to do it. Which is fine if that's all you're doing. But if I wanted to share my screen and work on something else while doing so then it could quite quickly get to the point where I needed to start shutting down other programs, and even then it could cause lag when typing in less well-implemented apps.

My new MacBook with M1 Pro cpu it still uses most of a cpu core for videoconferencing, but it's a single E core and I have 9 others cores. Videoconferencing now makes zero difference to system responsiveness.

Most people won't need 8 cores, but I reckon the average office worker in 2022 would benefit from 4.
Nickel pollution.
Most services I've seen in Europe are around €0.09 so "thousands" would mean upwards of €100. I've seen US providers go as low as $0.005 though.

I think the mistake is to have unlimited messages if messages are such a major cost factor. Most services with "unlimited X" have a soft and hard limit on X if you dig deeper. If you don't want to charge per usage (or for overages), you should do a mixed calculation based on typical and min/max usage per customer and how usage ebbs and flows over time.

For the grandfather plan I'd aim lower than that even if it means losing a little money on high use customers because their usage might decline in the future (at which point they're providing profit while being less likely to cancel because of FOMO) and because the lower price point and legacy will make them good multipliers, not just for direct referrals but also as references or partners for whitepapers.

Basically you can get more out of them than just money so treating them the same as later customers means missing out on that.
Doubtful. Even their customer products used different OS. It’s probably a controlled mess.
It's blocked and inaccessible without circumvention. The list you linked to is provided by the regulatory body; it's incomplete and can't be searched by keyword to list specific page blocks. (blocking a single page means blocking the entire HTTPS website, obviously)

This one [1] is from Roskomsvoboda (a domestic EFF-like organization) and is much more complete. The rutracker.org itself is listed on last pages as unblocked, but that's purely technical and is done to update the IP address. Generally, there's no way to tell if a site is blocked except to test it from inside the country, that's true for every national firewall.

Moreover, Rutracker itself never blocked Russian IPs to signal anything, that was a fake started by Forbes (yes, really) and reposted by everyone else. Rutracker fought a DDoS attack for a couple days and was always open otherwise, and still is. You can open it from inside Russia without any VPN if you use a DPI circumvention tool or find a rare ISP that doesn't enforce the national blacklist.

The same can be said about the supposed legalization of piracy in Russia, which didn't happen and never even been taken seriously, it was just media overreacting to everything. I guess plenty of people were mislead by this and still believe it. I also strongly disagree with @grishka above - copyright was extremely strictly enforced, our copyright agencies put MAFIAA to shame, sadly. It might change now, of course, but still didn't. The copyright was enforced for organizations, though - we never had warning letters for torrenting like in some countries, for example.

Right, this design model works only if there’s a certification process for software. If they can convince the virus scanning and HIPS companies to implement a certification standard, and then convince businesses that this certification process matters when purchasing enterprise numbers of clients, then it will start to make a dent.

What is isn't going to do is make Netflix a partner to something really out there, like Blaze TV.

This entire change to their guidelines feels dishoenst. They paint it as their duty to encourage pluralism, but they in fact just want to platform just enough content on the sidelines to make off with the largest profit profit margins.

It's another surrender to the power of the almighty dollar. I'd much prefer if Netflix was smaller and other competitors were around to fill that hole in the market so I could, as they say, vote with my wallet. (That phrase is never a dismissive sham, I swear!)

The Chinese are known for executing crazy big infrastructure projects quickly and well. That energy is valuable. Now maybe shipping gas across Siberia is impossible.

> it's still going to be the currency a bunch of guys with guns insist Americans pay taxes in

Well, yeah, most currencies are defacto backed by military force. That fact creates bad incentives.

Crypto doesn't have this luxury, it can be only be backed by the trust in code. If the currency is trusted - because it's open-source, open for all to use, is well designed - it's value is going to go up. See Bitcoin and Ethereum as best examples of this.

This make a decision whether to use a particular coin similar to choosing Python vs JVM and their ecosystems.

To be fair, I don't think stablecoins work well in that context. The information on how they are backed is not completely public, the companies issuing stablecoins are not that well audited...They are blobs of closed-source "stuff" that look like 1$

In this case the parent said that they know what the root cause is, and hinted that they could solve it if it came to it. But they didn't think they needed to, because they thought that habitual cannabis use wouldn't cause them any issues. It seems reasonable to me to point out that such situations often cause problems, and that people don't usually realise until it's too late.
> People in this world often convince themselves they're religious, but under cover they operate in some of the most spineless and inconsiderate ways... It's one of the big contradictions in life.

You can generalize this to the whole population. Average people, ambitious, criminals, murderers, rapists they all think they are good people. And they aren't better than the religious people on which you focus.
Actual title: End-to-End Monitoring with Grafana Cloud with Minimal Effort
I do know a thing or two about MS SQL optimisation also. 8)

So keep in mind that the SSD I'm referring to can read at 7 GB/s. Not seven gigabits... 7 gigabytes per second. I've benchmarked some not-so-old servers (the entire box, not a VM!) as capable of only 35 GB/s streaming reads from main memory! So these days "disk" is more like "5x slower memory". It used to be 100-1000x slower.

I told one customer to get a 16x PCIe gen 4 adapter card with 4 NVMe M.2 ports on it. This would -- in theory -- be able to pump out 28 GB/s of reads, equivalent to a 200 Gbps NIC. Total storage would be 32 TB with CoTS 8TB drives.

That's a mind-blowing amount of IO in a single box!

The hardware has the capability, it's the software and inability to utilise that is the bottleneck now..
Adding a XSLT stylesheet to that XML feed, will make it also readable inside browser.
Can you explain why? It's not something under most people's control except for customs and the shipping. At a certain point it's not something the shipper can influence.

What would be the appropriate action to such a situation in your opinion if it's on its way but delayed by uncontrollable factors (like let's say, a war)

Edit: also delay is a bit different than not giving.

Again it's not like we weren't apologetic, but somtimes there are things we cannot control
It seems cheaper to just sign a large service contract with a company for which building a server OS is the core competency. Apple is very much not an engineering-first company. They make very logical decisions from a business-first point of view.
The moment that happens I wouldn't trust anything I read online (or even videos) to be human made (and not by one actor or corporation engaging in mass manipulation) and would limit or cut off internet usage preferably completely.
Does "knows how to create a linked list" correlate to "won't install random libraries"?
Well it would make some sense to have perhaps 2 or 4 single core speed focused cores for the main process that you're currently working on, and then add as many of the smaller E cores as you can, to handle the hundreds of background processes so that the P cores can run uninterrupted by them.

If this works that way in practice is anyone's guess though.
Yeah this seems a bit ridiculous. Imagine if people said this for music. "If you can appreciate good music then you can make good music. Just walk up to a piano and use your ear to correct yourself until it sounds good!"

That usually means you don't have authority (which is also a problem) and forced to solve the same problem over and over again.

For me it usually in 3-6 months I'm able to make complex changes to the existing code. In 12-24 months I'm able to make fundamental changes and demolish some of Chesterton's fences.

"Communication in the human cortex" seems pretty clear. The abstract is there for an extended summary if one doesn't wish to read the whole article.

One cannot possibly understand the nuances of something without reading it; I do not feel knowledge gained through reading titles of articles is usable knowledge. Perhaps one should consider changing the habits of the reader rather than the author?

> Keep in mind that event horizon isn't a shell, just a point at which your future (which is in the singularity) is certain.

Yeah, exactly my thought. Then again, we're silently assuming here that spacetime would pretty much look like one of the vacuum black hole solutions plus some additional matter (our body) near it. That doesn't seem too likely, given that our body is much heavier and can't just be treated as a test particle. OTOH it doesn't seem too likely, either, that the actual spacetime would look completely different: There will surely still be a black hole and an event horizon.
Quebec to pass onerous language law
> With limited exceptions, Bill 96 requires doctors to address their patients in French, even in situations where both doctor and patient would better understand each other in another language. Certain bilingual institutions, such as the Jewish General Hospital, are exempt. As are patients who can prove that they’ve attended an English-language school in Canada, or immigrants who have arrived in Quebec within the last six months. But for everyone else, everything from cancer diagnoses to Alzheimer’s treatment must be performed in French.
References? Because I remember reading that the metabolic path for sugar (fructose in particular) produces some pretty nasty by-products.

But that's not the main problem with sugar. The main problem with sugar is that it doesn't fill you up. In fact, it has the opposite effect: it makes you feel hungrier. So yes, if you eat the same number of calories in sugar or fat & protein that in and of itself will have the same effect on your weight. But the sugar will leave you feeling hungrier than the fat&protein, and that is what messes you up.
Thanks for your reply. I am aware of the absolute cell reference notation and use it frequently when I have a set of constants (e.g. longitude, latitude, year, month, day, timezone &c) that are referenced in many formulas. However the situation in my post was the other way round sort of.

As a concrete example (just in case I've mis-understood the situation), I have the right ascension, declination and phase angle of Venus as decimal angles in cells G80, H80 and M80 and I want the output strings in cells F3, G3 and H3. I still need to search and replace the A1 cell reference in my original post for each of the formulas.

As the poster a couple levels above pointed out I could do this as a user defined function in VBA, but I wanted my daft spreadsheet to work on Libre/Open office and on Google sheets with little or no modification. Hence the chain of if statements and round() functions.
