I liked BitBills. They were simple to understand, and I knew the tradeoffs and where I was reliant on trust.

I'm technical, but even after reading your website a couple times over I still can't say I understand your Notes. They're gorgeous looking, that's about all I can make out.
Year 2022, I know people in America are comfy in their homes. But here in Europe, people are dying few thousands KMs from our borders. Who the fck cares about carbon footprint or green energy...
There are a lot more disadvantages in my book :

- You may have to sneak around neighbors or other guests

- Handing over the key can be a hassle

- Cameras (which must be disclosed, but there are umpteen stories, where that's not the case) may be hidden and record whatever you do

- The risk that you run into a scam is much, much bigger than with a hotel. This may take the form of a bait and switch, or a charge for things you allegedly broke

- Good luck resolving any issue. From an extremely noisy party in the apartment above to things breaking down

- The host may cancel like a day before you arrive

- You may find yourself in a strange city at night in front of a locked door and the host can't be contacted

- Good luck with AirBnB support if anything goes wrong. There are so many horror stories of them giving zero shit. That's except when it blows up and there's some bad press

- It's mostly no more the "cool dude" or a person renting out a spare room. Often it's some faceless real estate company managing dozens of bland cookie cutter apartments and not really a private host. So much for neighborly local cachet

Basically, things that won't happen in a hotel or are instantly resolved.

Read up on https://www.airbnbhell.com/ for horror stories about AirBnb. From hosts as well as from guests.

I used them once in 2016 and wouldn't touch them now with a 10 foot pole.

E: Some restructuring
Agreed !

I've been trying to find out the "manufacturing nodes size ?"(like the nm size) for things like micro-controllers and "RAD Hardened CPUs" just cause it will be fun to compare, most of the docs/spec sheet I casually found doesn't mention any of this :/
How would you “steal” money from a contactless card or a phone?
ARM defines the Instruction Set Architecture for ARM-compatible CPUs.
It has major versions, like Armv8-A and Armv9-A.
The major versions have minor subversions, like Armv8.2-A and Armv8.5-A.
The versions and subversions have mandatory features, which must be implemented by everybody who claims to make an ARM CPU, and optional features.

Like on x86, where there is the CPUID instruction, on an ARM CPU it is possible to determine what version and subversion of the ISA is implemented, and which optional features are implemented, by reading some special registers.

It is possible to make a program that on newer CPUs will take advantage of some features, but on older CPUs it will have a fall-back code path of lower performance.

Because Apple writes software only for their CPUs, they do not bother to write programs that will also run on CPUs made by others, which may lack some of the features implemented on Apple CPUs.

As mentioned in the parent article, Rosetta needs FEAT_FlagM, which is implemented only on ISA versions of Armv8.4-A or newer.

All the ARM cores licensed from the ARM company with the exception of those introduced in 2021 (and also NVIDIA Carmel and the last cores designed by Samsung before giving up), support only Armv8.2-A, and those older than Cortex-A55 (e.g. Cortex-A73, Cortex-A72, NVIDIA Denver) support only Armv8.0-A.

This leaves very few non-Apple CPUs which can execute Rosetta, i.e. only the latest smartphones of 2022 with Armv9.0-A CPUs (Cortex-X2, Cortex-A710, Cortex-A510) and the Graviton 3 servers with Armv8.4-A CPUs (Neoverse V1).

Besides the ISA level compatibility, there is also the problem with the standard peripherals, e.g. timers, which also may differ between ARM CPU implementations.

As explained in the parent article, Rosetta is not written to work with any timer frequency, but accepts only a few values, so it had to be tricked to work on Graviton 3.

Because on any ARM system it is possible to determine the frequency of the timers, it would have been possible to write Rosetta to work with any frequency, but again, there was no reason for Apple to make it more flexible, when they want it to run only on their hardware.
What? I use the same USB-C cable and charger with my android phone, 2020 Macbook Pro, Ipad, SO's android phone of a different brand and way older MBP that's on its last legs.

That's the whole point of USB-C. I don't own a single device that I can't charge with the same 2 cables, to the point where the magnetic cable of the 2020 MBP is stored in its box.
NixOS Developer here which keeps the bottles package up to date on the side. Updates are usually in master within a day and on the unstable channel within a week or two. Also our distribution model allows us to use the latest and shiniest for bottles or something a little bit older if it isn't working. GTK4 and libadwaita aren't a problem either and are already available to use.

PS: many problems with packages on NixOS are on NixOS. If something is not working always try first to discet it yourself and seek help on Matrix if you are stuck, need help or just have general questions. If you can find a fix, PRs are always welcome. If not that's okay. Maybe you created interest on matrix and someone is going to jump on the fix train. Also you can always creame an issue with all the information you already gathered and logs.
To me this all sounds like Apple is ready to license their CPU, let's hope!
Not really. OEMs pay significantly less for Windows licenses than they are retailed for.

And Windows sales to consumers haven't been a core part of their business for a while now. It's all about cloud and enterprise.
It’s an absolute travesty nobody saw this post

Would love to chat about it with you and how it could potentially make a lot of money
Thanks for the pointers, but I'm in the privileged position to not have to care about the details since it was a work trip handled by my employer.

I just wanted to share my anecdote for the human angle: some people enjoy exercising power over other people. It's not dissimilar to issues that the police force faces, although I would expect an airline to be better placed at rooting out this kind of bad elements from their workforce.
I used Reader mode!
Are there any successful proof of stake coins out there?

It is this way here because the people whose preferences count want it that way.

The changeover happened in the early 1970s. The Powell Memorandum spells out the political program enabling it. Starting in the '70s, while the GDP has continued ever upward, middle income leveled off, and has barely risen since. All of the difference has been carefully diverted into the pockets of the 0.1%. Now the US has many billionaires and many, many millionaires, and "the rest", who are what is called a "managed population", our apparent collective consent to all this carefully curated.

Rebelliousness is channeled carefully into increasing the divide. The radical increase in fortunes of billionaires over the past four years is always blamed on something about COVID, not on very deliberate policies enacted by the government in power at the time.
AWK has associative arrays, but no structs. It's a pretty useful language, although it has rather different use cases, of course.
> I guess restricting the app to a single core might reduce that error frequency a bit

Shouldn't it eliminate it entirely? I'm pretty sure ARM guarantees sequential consistency on a single core, so if the app is limited to a single CPU (e.g. using taskset), there should be no issue.

The real problem is, performance will be degraded.
Its particularly bitter in the big ones. You develop something cool, they patent it and then put the patent "right on the office fridge, that way we get to see it every day" and there the innovation hangs and suffers and you realize not only did you work in vain, you made the life for true entrepaneurs harder for a long time and blocked innovation for years to come.

Then you get promoted and oversee the same procedure of poisoning humanitys well executed by a younger generation.
Russias security is guaranteed by its nuclear weapons. Having one or a dozen NATO bases on its border doesn't alter this basic fact...
So after trying their luck at Bitcoin PoW, the new target is AI ? When did using energy become a thing to apologize for ?
Depends for what.

I got to #3 on producthunt last year and still get traffic from them. Does it convert to users? On the day of launch I got 600 new users but they were not very active.

Imo it's a shiny new toy syndrome place. They have a lot of eyes on their website so you can leverage that. The people will try your product just because.

But marketing strategy should be more complex then just launching on product hunt.

In terms of launching its just for 1 very tiring day.
I suppose it depends - although it's pretty much the worst case for write amplification, 1-4 bytes leading to a 4k block erase and reprogram.
There's a limit to the number of colors. It almost certainly doesn't go up the 40k. Perhaps add a modulo operator to the color statement?
The IT industry also uses primarily electric energy which is easier to make green than for example long-range trucking, farming, or long-distance flights.
How big would a web search index be to be able to run it localy
I was just reading another thread about Google and Microsoft using our search against us in the ad wars, and was wondering how big an index would need to be for us to just have one local.

I wouldn't even care about the long tail, just say the top 10k web sites would do I think.

I wouldn't try and build it local by crawling, Id be happy to just download a big torrent an somehow patch it every week or so.
Electron is a steaming pile of garbage and I wish it a swift and sudden death.

Electron "apps" aren't apps. They are glorified webpages.
As someone who once couldn’t imagine burning the cash, I’m a month into a 6-12 month sabbatical after finally burning out pretty hard.

My advice to my former self would be to take extended time before it became a borderline personal crisis. The funny thing about that opportunity cost - I’m now spending time just building the energy to use this time away for things I find personally interesting.

Had I taken the time sooner, it probably could have been shorter, and I’d probably enjoy the first bit of it more.
Things are not all rosy elsewhere, but it means they remain or get more like the US.
Lol, there was one time I churned out a series of magic numbers by repeatedly running several pieces of code in an IPython notebook, measuring (with significant contribution from eyeballing a graph) and tuning the input parameters by hand each time. The magic numbers worked and were put into production at LHC (yes, the Large Hadron Collider), but good luck turning the process into reproducible code without writing a lot of new annealing code which would at least double the amount of effort.

And I was the most organized programmer among my peers by a long shot. Judging from the messiness of shared code, I can’t imagine how bad other people’s unshared work is.
Yeah, it's a completely different runtime. I think the purists might argue that it's a completely different language, but it feels similar enough that you don't get too upset about the occasional language feature that doesn't work.

I remember using time.Format(time.RFC3339) in a project once. Seemed impossible to have such convenience on a microcontroller, and I probably paid a lot for it, but it did work perfectly.
> Multiple dispatch is a bad fit for most problems. It’s the hard truth many Julia users won’t swallow because LLVM can give them such good performance with such low programmer effort.

what is this claim based on? hearsay?

> I’ve read some Julia source and its an awful experience trying to figure out what method is actually going to get executed because of multiple dispatch.

how is that difficult? you need to elaborate on that because having to "figure out" means you didn't really use Julia enough
The motivation for Haskell included building large applications. It was not solely a research language, but the culmination of years of research in non strict functional languages:

Yup. I still have avl trees from way back lying around. I've ported them to C++ and recently to Go.
I'd argue that the quality of software on Windows specifically has decreased significantly since the rise of Electron.
Starting a war over gas fields when the entire world is pledged to go off carbon fuel is... short sighted at best, if not outright idiotic.
I'm im position of buying this kind of product (CTO of 50eng), I could be interested by this kind of tool (we're alerting a lot through slack, and I'm searching a way to better track my incidents), but i'll never take 1 hour to "present my company" and "discuss a pricing" for a such "little" product.

For a product that costs tens of thousands of $ I understand, for a product that would cost hundreds, red flag, I don't have time for that. Incidentally, there is nothing worse than non-transparent prices, which can change dramatically every year

If AWS manages to have public pricing (with customers ranging at $100/m, $1000000/m), why not you?
> I once read a good line: Be thankful for all the problems out there otherwise you would be out of a job.

I do consulting work these days. "a problem is an opportunity is disguise" is a mantra that has, on countless occasions, proven to be true. Increased billing, newer projects and opportunities. All of them first appear as problems. Over time, my reflexive anxiety at seeing a problem has been replaced by a joyful optimism. It just smells different now.
High performance as “minimal performance cost on your actual js environnement” ?

I write about communtiy creator economy and startups for creatives.
Regular telephone audio is usually filtered 0.3-3.4 kHz (this on analog phone lines). Digital phone lines use PCM with A-law (or µ-law in the US and some other places) logarithmic sample encoding, with 8 kHz sampling rate, getting more or less the same result of an analog phone line, possibly with less distortion. FM radio has much higher bandwidth, usually up to around 15 kHz and with better basses too.
Sounds like it could be replaced with rsync and a cronjob?
That is the first I hear about it. I guess I need to read up on early communism.

But even a broken clock is right twice a day...
Phone carriers cut off the frequency spectrum.

Reducing energy consumption would reduce the increased chances of future energy and climate change derived wars according to current models.
Similar happened with me on AWS about 10 years ago - ended up with my account being shut down.

I managed to exceed a free tier and get charged $0.01 USD for S3 storage. They kept trying to take the payment from my card, but my bank couldn't process it as 1c is less than 1 GBP penny.
Interesting approach. What do you do if one of the passwords got leaked? What new password do you use then?

If I knew one of your passwords, would you consider your system to be still secure?
It's also how the newish Furby's interact with a phone or tablet app.

And I believe how Cisco teleconfernce allow wireless configuration of a screen share.
You get on a slippery slope pretty easily here. Just consider how heavily the Overton window moved in these last 10 years - what was baseline liberal in 2010 is often treated as right-wing to borderline fascist today.
Good to know. Thanks Anna
I've spent hours and hours trying to get controls working correctly in RetroArch. There are independent controls for the menu, cores then individual roms.

There have been so many times where I've accidentally locked myself out of the menu controls causing the need to SSH into the device to fix it up.
Couldn't this be fixed by having the creator of the data as a co-author on any paper that uses the data?

The basic conflict is that it's hard/expensive/time-consuming to make data, and easier to write papers on existing data sets. So just split the work, and make it a legitimate occupation to create good data sets. As of now, generating the data by itself has no benefits for scientists, other than the papers they can subsequently write using it. Feels a bit like having to make a screwdriver every time you want to work on your car.
This made me laugh. Good one .
The business model is not entirely unrelated to the quality of the search results. Anything ad-funded will always have incentives not to get you to the best non-paid result as fast as possible. And once the ad-funded search gets big enough they are likely also going to be doing the middle man part of the ads operation and selling that service to others - which then provides further incentives to not negatively rank ad-heavy sites.

Same. I always start web projects with a single html file with style and script blocks in the document head. Works a treat. If the project is a small demo then it's likely to stay a single file — I only move things to separate files when they get big, or if I start to reuse bits in other projects I might make a common file. I hate using npm, frameworks, build processes etc. for personal projects.

Which is exactly why there are regulations in the first place, to protect also that high school student with interest from being kicked out next year when a new round of high schoolers with interest comes around.
What authors _could_ do is to add some kind of secret watermark that would only be shared with select government agencies and perhaps software companies that could be trusted to keep it secret.

That way, the software could be used for pen testing, but it could cause a silent trigger to go off.

That could even be a way to monetize the software....
There are also electricity poles with a strong EM field that cause a humming sound.

FICO 8 scores ignore collections under $100 I believe.
It absolutely isn't. I initially bought an M1 with 8GB, and it would constantly crawl to a halt. Unfortunately I was past my return window so had to sell it at a loss to buy another 16GB.

I can't afford to leave my job, I would only be able to sustain myself for ~1 year. I think I would be satisfied if I only had to work half as much: 4 hours a day, 20 a week. Now I just need to find that job...
For me, this video pretty much sums up the problem Web3 has: At every interface to the real world, you need a trusted third party.

Another example: A smart contract that transfers ownership of your online accounts to someone else in case of - say - death. Sounds reasonable, but who tells the smart contract that the person died? The coroner? If so, you are back to square one trying to solve the trusted third party problem.

Ironically for Web3/etc. the "(no) trusted third party" is both the selling point and it's largest problem.
Agree it is fragile, and indeed since there's no authority there's no authority to ask.

The likes of uk.com and others owned by Centralnic have been around a while.

I've never been sure what to call these since they aren't (as in top) TLDs.

> I don’t think Python will ever be half as fast as the fastest Julia programs, but that’s okay. A hell of a lot more games/products/everything has been shipped with it than ever will be with Julia 1.*

Because python is at least 3 decades old and julia is just a decade old. even python has a "hate" phase before it got widely adopted.

> With Julia, I have to think multiplicatively about every call site because it could get called with a million different methods. It’s so annoying.

whut?? are you saying this just to sound cool? because for me this is hilarious.
To me this is not what it means. To me it just means I can autocomplete emails etc while not storing the raw, unencrypted email value on the server.

>To me this all sounds like Apple is ready to license their CPU

Not at all. Apple only makes HW for the Apple ecosystem an that's it. Just look at everything they sell from monitors to earphones. Their functionality is crippled when not used with Apple HW because they're dependent on the Apple ecosystem to run at their full feature set.

What makes you think they would suddenly reverse that? They're just not in the business of building and supporting non-Apple ecosystems.

I was at that point several times (using Neo2).

The problem is that there is too much to remap, basically you need every letter
on the keyboard. And if you keep positions, mnemonics do not make sense anymore.
"Change Inner Word" would become "JC," (on Dvorak).

If you keep the letters (instead of the positions) all commands in muscle memory
do not work anymore. I tried to relearn those ... but in the end it is too much
effort for too little gain.

These days, whenever I get fancy I just switch the keyboard layout to Neo2 when
writing longer texts and switch back when going back to command mode. (I guess
there is a way to automate that switch, that would be interesting now that I
think of it).
Which is why law & justice style TV shows display and glorify this kind of psychopathic, picking on the weak and helpless behavior, right?

Or do they show the criminal justice system as staffed by noble individuals that, on the rare occasion they cross a line, it is done with the best intentions, and bad apples and mistakes are a rare exception?

The system they think is great is imaginary, not the system you actually have. Try and think things through before you so casually condemn people.
