Are you asking specifically about applying your experience in older tech because you have already ruled-out learning new skills? If so, why? And if not, I'd suggest getting in touch with a local boot camp or technical college.
If the streaming server you're using has the ability to store the chunks generated by the HLS encoder, you can always generate a new playlist containing all the chunks for the video - or you can merge the chunks back into a single mp4 file.
No - there's a lot of science to be done in these fields - it's just applied (ie. practical). When you fund "fundamental" research - you're not only diverting limited funds - you're diverting limited talent - so it's double crowding out.

> That's the wrong measure; outlasting cables is inadequate.

Only if you don't realize the reason they're built that way is to not wear the connector down, they're designed to last "forever".

> In my experience, the "tongue" in the USB-C connector gets broken in about two years. That forces me to buy a new phone, and hope that it arrives before my old phone's battery dies.

I've never seen or heard anyone break the tounge of the USB-c.

> it's freaking consumer connector. It should just work

There are physical limitations to this and lightning are also prone to the issue.

> Meanwhile, I've never seen a lightning connector fail. The cords do, and they cost too much, but they're just cords.

All I see is broken iPhone cables, not that it matters though, since we're discussing connectors.

And, yes, the lightning connector could/should be more robust.

No.

See those teeny metal thingies in there? That's how an USB-c cable looks inside, why you ask? Because that's the most unreliable part of the connector (other than filling up with crap).

I mean if you're so incredibly violent you break the tounge then lightning would indeed be better, but that's not a common failure mode. It's designed for wear and tear, not violent bending forces.
Nice exercise developing an embeddable BASIC interpreter in Rust.

I've experimented with teaching 11-year old school children Python in a single session.

To obtain the immediacy effect that the original poster mentioed (which reportedly were liked by his kids), I use Turtle graphics module inspired by logo (import turtle - see also https://vegibit.com/how-to-move-the-python-turtle/ ).

Here's what you can do in a single two-hour session:

1. First I explained the children how points can be addressed using x and y coordinates (Cartesian coordinate system - which they hadn't had in maths classes at the time). "Each dot has two numbers that indicate where it lives, like house numbers."

2. Then I gave them the task of drawing a house only using straight lines (no curves permitted).

3. Next I asked them to convert the lines that made up their house into Python code based on forward(), right() etc. commands inspired by LOGO (which was, after all, inspired by education work with children ast MIT).

4. Let them try out their program on a computer.

5. Tell them that if they liked this exercise, they should ask for a Rasberry PI from their parents as a Christmas present as an affordable way to get into programming (early).
Absolutely.

On top of that, I feel like USB-C is deliberately engineered to sell more ICs. Which wouldn't be that huge of an issue except as a result, all relevant ICs are sold out (or unsuitable).

CC/PD use a custom transmission standard so you can't implement it without a PHY, which basically means at least one dedicated IC.
Brexit regret is always a solid majority in the minds of the diehards, who claimed the day after the 2016 referendum (seriously) that a) millions of Leave voters already regretted their votes, so b) a do-over was the only right and proper thing to do.

Ah, hm, updated knowledge. From about 1999 to 2008 platinum traded at about twice the price of gold. They were roughly equal until 2015 then gold started trading about double the price of platinum.

> as it is currency designed to confuse people into thinking they are real dollars

That was the government's argument. The defendant clearly disagreed. Arguably they were closer to "real dollars" (defined by the Coinage Act of 1792 to consist of 416 grains, or about 0.95 ounces, of standard silver) than anything the government has minted recently. A bit better, even.

The dollar sign and the word "dollar" are not unique to US currency and in fact predate the US entirely. Likewise for the word "liberty" or the phrase "trust in God"—if anything that last would probably be deemed a blatant violation of the separation of Church and State if the government actually put it on their currency. These are just generic elements common to many currencies and US culture. Even the initials "USA" don't actually imply any endorsement by the US government; you can find them on just about everything these days. The intent was patriotism, not confusion. The same would have been true if they had spelled out "United States of America" like the official coins, though of course they didn't do that.

Any actual confusion can more readily be blamed on the US Mint for making their coins too generic than on NORFED for making theirs too similar. At least NORFED put their name in their design; the US Mint did not.
intelligence is both embodied and embedded.
Among the manga market, there is a wide range of quality. The success of an individual manga depends heavily on creating a story worth reading and using that quality to attract an audience. Other factors are at play, and what's "good" is a matter of taste. Still, morbius as a manga would not have attracted an audience, so it would not have moved up market.

Otherwise unknown artists can and often do make a name for themselves by telling a good story, and their story gets boosted by a functioning entertainment industry.

Contrast that to America's entertainment industry. A filthy and incestuous cabal of people decide what does and doesn't make it. Ideological zealotry required to step foot at the gates. Serial rapists as the gatekeepers using their power to take advantage of others.

It's not marketing. Design matters.

Germans have many qualities but design is just not one of them. They just can't do it and especially Porsche they are still running with the elongated Beetle design from the 1940s. Over at Porsche they are making the same car over and over again ever since the 1940s Beetle.

Once you remove the Porsche brand what do the Germans have left which can compete with Ferrari? Audi R8?

Have you seen the new Daytona FP3? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bA66mWhznVs

Porsche doesn't even dream about making something like that.

In a sense it's true that the supercar battle is Ferrari vs. Lamborghini. They are the only game in town because design matters. The former is timeless and elegant and the latter aggressive and bold...but they are both aestetically pleasing and merit being in an art museum.
The 2 resistor on CC line thing is not spec compliant.

Alternatively, we are analogue beings made up of systems that appear to be best described by chaotic continuous non-linear math, and digital computers can roughly simulate physics to a given level of precision, which can be as fine as you care to make it… at the cost of ever increasing processing requirements. And the amount of physics involved in simulating a single human cell, like a neuron, is already vast.

Whether we can simulate a “large enough” physical system, in as much detail as is required, at a fast enough speed to produce any results in a meaningful timeframe, is an open question.

We don’t even know how big the simulation needs to be, in terms of neurons, to produce qualia. Or how we’d know if it were. Or how much detail/resolution is needed.

It’s like brute forcing the travelling salesman problem for a 10,000 node graph. Yeah, we know exactly how to do it with a digital computer. The math is simple. It’s just going to take longer than the heat death of the universe to get the answer.

Bottom line, cost, someone has done the math and has determined that it's cheaper to power thru than to try to re-route.

Insurers could change this by refusing to insure under certain conditions but they've also concluded that it makes better financial sense to let the situation continue as it is now.

I've come to the conclusion that if something that seems crazy continues to happen then the primary culprit is money. Not always, but it's up there.

Life insurance is actually surprisingly common a perk; I remember even Stripe had it! I guess it's nice to know that your employees' family will be well provided for regardless of their original financial situation.

Maybe this is a healthy dose of paternalism? I feel like there would be more people who regret not buying life insurance in this case than people who regretted the minimal $250 outlay

Nukes have had more than enough time to mature and develop any economies of scale they might have got.

There is no method known or conceived to get power out of nukes other than via heat engine, such as boiling steam and running that through a turbine. So, on top of all the other operating costs -- mining, refining, handling fuel, disaster insurance (always subsidized by taxes), decommissioning cost, spent fuel handling, security -- there is the cost of maintaining ye old steam turbines.

Thus, there is no conceivable prospect for nukes ever to get as cheap as (e.g.) geothermal, which expenses are mostly just the steam turbines. But rewables are undercutting geothermal, now, because they don't need to maintain any of those. I.e., maintenance cost of renewables is also extremely low.

Land acquisition is not an issue, because solar and wind both coexist nicely with agricultural and many other uses, often synergistically. Agricultural yields increase; crop, reservoir, and canal evaporation loss decreases; roofs last longer.

If you want to have provider choice for customers and interoperability between messaging apps, I don't think there is another way than making standards mandatory.

Why do you think WhatsApp reached a billion dollar evaluation? Not because users have the freedom to move to a different provider and still be able to talk to all their friends...

The only other possibility is that users start rejecting providers who do not comply with internet standards (and I don't see that happening, even here on Hacker News).
Yes please. Bandwidth is relatively cheap, when do we start optimising for compute instead? Would be great to have some kind of metric that would allow us to better understand efficiency (e.g. effort/energy/time) for the use-span of a given image.

... something that might tell us, given a 3s encode with available technology, at what number of over-the-wire loads / decodes does it become more efficient to use a cheaper codec? Slightly less relevant with lossless, but still.

> In my opinion Haskell's capabilities to help implement general-purpose SW (services, compilers, GUI, game-dev, systems) are way over-hyped.

Haskell usage in companies is currently niche at best. It's hard to know what you would consider reasonable use of the language if you believe it's currently overhyped. Maybe your idea of hype relies on conference talks or some other metric I don't get?

> in my personal opinion, you don't gain that much if you compare it to something like Rust, Java or even Go.

Rust is pretty similar to Haskell in terms of type system experience, the main difference being that, when you don't really care about how memory is used, Rust forces you to handle it. Any GC'd language will feel refreshing if you're annoyed by that. Aside from that, I don't challenge that Rust is a great language to program in.

Java's usability is built on a fundamentally different model: it benefits from decades of investment in IDEs, and all professional java users I know use it extensively. While a haskeller will rely on types to perform refactoring, a java dev will refactor using the IDE, with an equivalent peace of mind. Java's typesystem is poor, but it doesn't really matter in users' development experience.

I don't have much positive stuff to say about Go, and even less about its typesystem. You may find better advocates for this one.

> Lastly it's just incredible hard to estimate runtime characteristics

Most use cases don't care about that. You quoted Java earlier, a language in which most devs never ever really delve into runtime performance and simply let the runtime do its stuff. As it turns out, it's usually good enough.

It's quite surprising that aside from Fortran, C derivatives and Rust, no one gives a damn about performance, but when it's haskell, it suddenly becomes a problem.

> If Haskell is such an advanced language to make implementing reliable SW such a breeze

Is that some kind of strawman where if haskell doesn't deliver on being touted as the gift of God to programmers, then it's bad?
> the bandwidth of tb4 is definitely overkill for every phone ever made on the world for now

That depends on what you're doing with it. It would not be very strange to power a VR headset with a phone, which could easily get into that bandwidth range.
The problem with photonic chips is that the devices are enormous in comparison. Something simple like routing the light around a 90 degree corner already takes in the order of a millimeter. Simply scaling down the waveguide causes the light to fly out of the corner, causing reduced signal strength and random scattering through the chip, heating it up. A chip with more than a few hundred devices will probably quite large already and will cause low yield, high cost and high power consumption (it likely requires cooling). I don't see optical chips replacing transistor based chips in my lifetime, except for a few specialized applications (high frequency radio maybe).
Another way to look at it, my bias I know their story but have never met them or emailed them...

Creative Tim which now is at $1.7 million got it's start by I think 3 self taught front end coders as they wanted a killer resume to go after smaller clients.

So they started building UI kits some free ones that point to paid ones business model.

Not saying that you would get to $1.7 million.

However, given you already have half the work done in that you already know jquery and JS. Why not build two smallish UI kits to teach yourself design and put both the free kit and the paid kit out there.

Yes, it is more work than probably what others are suggesting.

But, quite frankly if you can empathy for other humans; YOU can IN FACT DESIGN awesome websites. You just have never push towards as of yet.

You have got the Second Amendment backwards. The idea that a well-regulated militia could bear arms was supposed to be a counterbalance to the new federal government. It was about the states having recourse if they didn't like democracy. It was about ensuring the failure of the United States similar to how the Articles of Confederation failed, that power wasn't too centralized. The Second Amendment was about states' rights to maintain militias that could fight democracy; this was especially relevant to slave states that weren't fully on board with representative democracy.

The Civil War was the ultimate aim of the Second Amendment. State militias banded together to fight the United States. It was never about ensuring democracy.

The interpretation that the Second Amendment is about enabling individuals to protect their personal interests with guns is very new. And this idea that the Second Amendment is supposed to be about guns maintaining democracy is a perversion of even that. Coercion via the threat of violence from random, unelected strangers doesn't feel very 'democratic' to me.
It's more of a matter of libraries and implementations than of the standard. In ALL versions of HTTP, the request and response bodies are potentially infinite binary data streams. You can send a large file in them, but also e.g. lots of invidiual events with pauses in between (as e.g. utilized in gRPC streaming and for SSE).

However client and server libraries might not allow to access bodies as a stream, and would only provide a full response. That is e.g. the case for browser APIs, where the only APIs to access the response body either allowed to wait for the complete data to have arrived or allowed to parse SSE format. Newer APIs - e.g. fetch with ReadableStream [1] would lift some of those restrictions.
