It was reported recently that they are also doing the same thing with the CPU in some of their machines. As someone who has bought older Xeon CPUs to upgrade older PCs (often giving them years more useful life) that is frustrating.

This also worked for Facebook back when I still had an account. All the posts I saw were ones directly related to my interests and local events that I was interested in. We have a lot of control over how social media presents us with information, just most people don't bother trying to make it work for them.

All of the Pine64 stuff is like this and it's detestable.

I had a RockPro64 for a while that I had tons of trouble getting to work for almost these exact reasons (largely thanks to uboot). Got rid of my Pinebook Pro for similar reasons.

Pine64 makes tons of interesting devices then relies almost 100% on unpaid post-consumer-hobbyist interest for any usability outside of a hacked together barebones ecosystem. Even their unique PineTime, which has been out for some time, is at a barely functioning level and I have zero hope for the PineNote at this point.

I really wish they cared about more than spinning out flashy hardware and patting themselves on the back.
That’s splitting hairs. Premium ≠ Best in all components. And the iPhone 12 and 13 have sold pretty well by all reports so the screen size is the only differentiator feature wise. (And battery which is unavoidable)

The connector.config.skipTLSVerify=true in the quick start document is a bit scary. A secure setup may be a bit more complex but your product is not targeting beginners, so a correct tls configuration may not scare people away.
My early days were DOS mode-x experiments mainly in Turbo Pascal. I had a manual I printed out, and some kind of BBS usenet-like forum thing.

The docs were so sparse and the communities so small that it really was a much different experience than today. I have fond memories of it, but that might just be me looking back with rose colored glasses.

I would have killed for stack overflow though! But there is a sense of self directed mastery that you don't get when you are so much more familiar with how fast the bodies of knowledge are.

The closest I get to that these days is trying to hack code on a plane :)
I love a small phone but I need the front cam for quick video calls.

Front camera, 3mm headset jack are must for me. If I could get a notification LED too... You might be able to get a lot of money out of me!
Presumably companies were simply complying rather than getting fined. Companies are generally way more law abiding than individuals, it's a rare legal department that would sign off on "let's ignore the law and hope it gets struck down before we get fined and dragged through the mud". Would that even be compatible with the rules around ensuring shareholder value?
During the pandemic, I tried something similar since there was little point to go out to take photos:

1. Sony A7II

2. 35mm lens (I tried others and this gives the best results for 2-3 feet)

3. Sony XLR-K2M adapter + Shure condenser microphone (this is absolutely overkill but I like to record myself playing guitar, and it beats timing stuff by hand)

4. Mini-HDMI cable to Elgato CamLink 4K USB dongle (I tried others, this one worked the best)

5. Two cheap LED photographic lights from Amazon - my workspace is very badly lit, so these also help me keep things well illuminated.

The main downside of using a setup like this is white balancing - I found the camera was not doing a good job by itself, so I had to do some trial-and-error. In less controlled environments, like rooms with lots of windows, this becomes even harder over the course of the day.

And yeah, I originally set all this up to stream games. How could you tell?

Intel isn't successful in the fields that "the market" thinks are the future.

ARM is slowly chiseling away at their market share on the general purpose end of the spectrum. It's pretty clear that Apple intends to move completely away from Intel as some point in the near future.

Nvidia has heavily outpaced them in the AI computing space. Data centers are filling up with racks of five-figure Nvidia cards. Intel was never competitive in the gaming sector, so there's no evidence to suggest they could ever catch up.

Even in their home turf of legacy PC chips, there is strong competition from AMD.

I can see why people aren't expecting huge growth from Intel in the future. There isn't an obvious growth market that they are primed to take.

Then you should be looking at ethnicity and not "race" as such. For example, Ashkenazi Jews as an ethnic group are genetically very distinct from other Europeans, but are generally considered "white" on self-reported race surveys.

I loved the original Moto X! It was one of the first true smart phones my wife and I purchased, and almost the best. It's a great balance of features and practicality that I wish a premium (or near-premium) phone would return. If there are any comparable current models, please let me know.

Hardware - Not premium, but a great combination of rugged, good looking, and practical. It was a pleasure to hold (and still was last time I pulled it out), with the soft, grippy, rubber back and "just right" size. Removeable battery was a plus.

Software - Lots of nice little touches by Motorola. I wish Google integrated more of them when they bought Motorola, like the "double flick" to turn on the flashlight. One of the first with lock screen notifications in white.
I mean, the pictures aren’t super clear, but I don’t know. When the qualities that are in common between the two people are themselves quite common and not particularly distinct, I’d hardly call them doppelgängers. Being in the same broad range of BMI and having roughly the same hair color and eyeglasses color isn’t really enough. Maybe the long dreadlocks are distinct enough to count.

I suppose specific scenarios like being sat next to someone on an airplane also lowers the threshold of notability. The guys with light hair and a beard probably justifies a selfie, but I still wouldn’t use the term “doppelgänger.” To me a doppelgänger is someone who looks so much like you that if you caught a glimpse of them in a crowd you’d think “whoa, I can’t believe there’s someone out there who looks that much like me.”
> I'm genuinely curious if you've measured this, and how you determined the impact of twitter on your business.

Well, Twitter is basically my only form of promotion. :-)

I've tried a number of forms of advertising, the results of which I can measure directly, but I've lost money every time, so I usually don't bother with that.

There are times when I can measure Twitter's impact directly. For example, I once had a very viral tweet that immediately resulted in a massive sales week. Admittedly, that's pretty rare though.

I did exactly what you're describing. I like the S22 but it is a little bigger than my ideal size. My only minor nitpick is with the fingerprint reader being under the screen instead of embedded in the power button (which I loved about the s10e since holding it naturally would unlock the screen). Samsung should just make something like an S22e or 23e.
I hated the music and closed my browser the second I couldn't find a mute button.
This seems like it would be hard to pin down, since it would vary widely from project to project. It would kind of be like asking 'what's the carbon footprint of a dev running a test?'. Well, that depends on the complexity of the code they're testing, what computer they're using, what language they're using, the climate of their workspace, and so on.
Sure. Utility is a way of representing preferences. A utility function goes from the choice set X to the real number line. A preference relation, in turn, is a binary relation on X satisfying completeness and transitivity. Utility function u represents preference relation >> if and only if u(x) > u(y) iff x >> y.

Yes, utility makes predictions, because preference relations make predictions. See the Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference and its cousins. If I see you choosing oranges over apples, and then the price of apples falls and you still choose oranges, we have learned that you strictly preferred oranges at the old price. More generally, some patterns of choices are rationalizable by a preference ordering. Others aren't. So a claim about someone's preference ordering has empirical content. (It sounds as if you imagine measuring utility as something that might need a brain scanner. We haven't thought that way since about World War II.)

This is all Econ 101 (at a bit higher level than a first year undergrad). I don't expect you to know it. I do expect you to know it if you intend to pontificate about it. Similarly, I know nothing about Ohm's Law, and for this reason, I avoid making broad pronouncements about the invalidity of all of physics. I find this basic commitment to intellectual humility helpful.
Definitely pick the one you are most familiar with, if you're planning to write a lot of the code.

If you're not familiar with Ruby, Elixir, or Python or don't plan to write the app yourself, there are tradeoffs for each.

I'm currently a Ruby(Rails API) engineer, working on side projects in Elixir(Phoenix Liveview), married to a Data Analyst that uses Python(Django Pandas). IMO these are the trade-offs between the 3.

Python(Django):
- Okay tooling and meh developer experience
- Language popularity: High
- Good for ML and data focused Web Apps

Ruby(Rails Hotwire):
- Good tooling and developer experience
- Language popularity: medium and declining
- Good for CRUDs and "Normal" Web Apps

Elixir(Phoenix Liveview):
- Great tooling and developer experience
- Language popularity: Low, but growing lots of engineers are excited about Elixir but few have professional experience
- Good for chat/real-time Web Apps
- Good for CRUDs and "Normal" Web Apps (not as good as Ruby)
- Okay for ML and data focused Web Apps (not as good as python but it's actively being worked on by the core team)

Scenarios:
- "You are planning to be the only engineer for awhile or maybe hiring one or two more for help and you don't want to have to rewrite the app if it gets popular." - Elixir
- "You plan to hire a team to work with You and want to go to market as fast as possible to determine market fit. Also, you don't mind doing a rewrite if it takes off" - Ruby
- "You don't want to write much code, and would rather hire a large team to build the app and/or the app is very data focused and will require a lot of data engineering" - Python

I'm pretty biased because Elixir is my favorite language to work in and I really enjoy the community. If I were planning to start a Web App Start-up I would definitely pick Elixir, because it's very productive especially with Liveview so you could get to market fast and it runs on the BEAM so I know I could trust it to scale well. Plus, the developer experience is really nice, with most libraries having great docs and a lot of core team effort being put into tooling. Even if it was a Data Focused app I would still pick Elixir because of the progress being made with libraries like Nx, Livebook and Broadway.
Hybrid ML approach for estimating water-use efficiency and yield in agriculture
They're generally pretty reliable but an issue to be aware of is that the cheaper ones can have quite high latency (0.5s or more). This means for Zoom etc you will have to choose between audio/video being desynced and more awkward conversation (if interactive discussion is more important than presenting).
Which of my claims do you disagree with?

- That the vehicle planned a route that it shouldn't, but corrected that route plan?

- That the vehicle entered an area where it shouldn't enter?

- That Tesla doesn't use radar?

- That Tesla doesn't use lidar?

- That the calculations were done on GPU rather than CPU and so it doesn't make sense to think that the reason this happened was an overloaded CPU?

- That the Hacker News title is editorialized, in contradiction to Hacker News guidelines?

I think the last one is probably most contentious and you are most likely to consider it sarcasm. So I'll point this out and hopefully you'll see where I'm coming from. If you renamed the video title to, "Tesla FSB Beta does not cause a head-on collision" it would be just as accurate for the situation in question. However, it would also be more accurate for the majority of the video. As such, it is a more accurate headline. Meanwhile, the name of the video is changed from the name on YouTube. Clearly an editorial choice was made.

Was it a good one?

To really get to the heart of the matter: no one died in this video, but if we had a similar bias against traditional vehicles we would see 90 videos of deaths every single day. A similar level of antagonism would demand that more then the entirety of the entire front page of Hacker News was completely taken up with actual deaths. Every day. The actual statistics at the heart of driving safety are very clear - human + AI is currently much much safer than human alone. That is the actual reality. This headline contradicts the underlying reality and it does so because the author knew the headline would attract more attention. It was optimizing for engagement, not for accuracy. I feel this sort of approach to headlines strongly contradicts the guidelines of Hacker News.
Ah, I didnt interpret the comment as being a variable delay. I think the point still holds though that you would still optimize for the lower bound.

> But it literally is the translation for swastika.

No, it is not. Even Hakenkreuz, in German, does not translate to Swastika.

Hakenkreuz is, as typical for German, made up of two distinct words - Haken, hook, and Kreuz, cross.

It is very likely that "Hakenkreuz" had simply at some point developed upon seeing a Swastika and trying to visually describe it in German, which would make it a pointer/reference. A lot of German words have exactly this mechanism of origin.

Now, I'm not trying to argue with you that a Hakenkreuz simply used to be a reference/pointer to a Swastika, BUT it was only until the original reference was appropriated and perverted by the Nazi regime, making the resulting output most definitely a new and distinct symbol with a new, distinct symbolic meaning.
Which becomes true if supporting neo-nazi groups fighting in Mariupol against Russia is included.

Preserve the Earth's livability with open source
I suspect that part of the problem is that, as measured by actual purchases, people don't really prioritize small size and displays that much.

Look at how long all of the requirement lists posted around these threads are. Some people really want a nice camera, some a headphone jack, some a SD card or big battery etc. I would expect that it's a fact of life in a small phone that you can't fit everything anyone might want, but everyone has a different list of must-haves, making it much harder to make one device that all of the small-phone-wanter market will actually buy.

And price. If you really want some one-off thing, you've gotta pay more for it. Would you pay $2k, $3k, more for a great small phone? Seems likely that such prices would help a lot at getting them made. But in reality, people seem to refuse to pay more than a modest markup over the mainstream model with tens of millions produced. Sorry folks, I don't think it works like that.

Noisy data can be useful. What it can't do is be useful enough to say "we have controlled for X". There will be a large unmeasured component of genetic variation - probably about 90% of it - that controlling for the PGS doesn't capture. Given that, throwing a PGS into the regression is not worth the candle.
> people who need phones will still buy something even if reluctantly

I'll be blunt: no I won't. I reluctantly bought the phone I still use (a moto X4) back in 2019, at which point it was already getting old. It was one of the smaller Android phones available at the time; I measured it diagonally corner to corner (including bezel) at 159 mm (6.26 inches). The screen size is 130 mm (5.2 in) according to Wikipedia. This phone is in fact much too big for me, and I'm not happy with it.

But I will be sticking with this phone into the indefinite future: until it breaks, becomes unusable, or a worthy replacement arises (a phone the size of the Nexus 5X or preferably smaller, with my must-have features). In the event I can't get this I will switch to a cheap feature phone since I need something for emergency use. I'll look into the mp3 player market to see if there's something I can use for playing music and audio books, maybe if I'm lucky there's something with a nice screen and an e-reader.

I'm sure you're right and some people are more willing to compromise than me. However, what also seems likely is that many people are somewhere in between and will wait until their current phone is unusable before reluctantly downgrading to whatever the latest model is. Surely plenty of sales are lost due to this.

Interesting, it was when I went to school! Maybe it's not as universal as the internet thinks it is. But the meaning surely was different, in my class it was used by the class clown as a personal symbol of approval :D
