It's neat to see this on the front page of HN -- I got the chance to take an Intro to Semiconductors class from the professor in the article a couple of years ago while getting my EE degree. Semiconductor design never really piqued my interest so I probably didn't get as much out of the class as I ought to have, but Lundstrom was clearly quite passionate about the subject and taught well. Looks like a neat program and it's one that I'm confident will have a lot of resources behind it.
Drones or no drones, I'd rather be sitting behind 35cm of hardened steel than out in the open with maybe 2cm of body armor max.
If you want to set it up and forget about it, just use any RHEL clone (AlmaLinux is by far the fastest with updates: it took them like a week to ship RHEL 9 after the official release). You set up the system, install & enable `dnf-automatic`, and forget that it exists for the next 10 years.

If AlmaLinux (or any other clone) dies for some reason, you can always move to another clone without re-installation (using their tool `elevate`).

We have a highly regulated environment and supply chain and have to go through a whole lot of GRC on a regular basis, and additionally one-off audits from some customers before they'll feel ok using our solution. So I will share here what I said to my folks:

"I looked further at the documentation solution I mentioned looked interesting. It is very nifty but it is pure SaaS, and I don't care how secure they are, having our source flow through another SaaS is not something I'm going to take on for any amount of pixy dust."
FWIW long-range widebodies are not necessarily jumbos, a 787-9 seats under 300, and an A350-900ULR has 315 passengers.

Assuming the XLR can be configured like a regular 321neo, it can reach 244 passengers in single-class configuration, and 200 in dual-class.

Wear long pants and gaiters sprayed with Permethrin. Do tick checks after a hike. Try to avoid unnecessarily walking through long grass. It's not possible to guarantee you won't get a tick on you but you can mitigate a lot of the risk pretty easily. Also, while ticks carry a number of nasties generally, Lyme is specifically about the small deer ticks.

You should be cautious but not "deadly afraid."
I love Tolkien's depiction of Smaug. He looks... cartoony, like Singe from Dragon's Lair. Everything is evocative of pure imagination. I guess when you fought in WWI and have seen how bleak the real world is, an imaginary world of whimsy and bright colors is a more cheerful place for your mind to inhabit from time to time.
What I wrote ~9y ago is still a pretty accurate representation of my view - https://antipaucity.com/2013/10/11/theres-never-enough-docum...

#Not Enough:

- why-tos (instead of how-tos)

- tutorials on things you need

- architecture explanation

- design philosophy “how we got here”

- “why we are here”

- future plans / roadmaps

- deltas from standards recording

- back-/cross-references to extant (even from other vendors / sources) documentation

#Too Much/Many:

- extraneous verbiage – use terse verbosity

- tutorials on things you don’t need / care about

- discussion of non-core aspects of the product

- how we used to do things

- assumption of comprehension

- plagiarism – ie, non-attribution of sources

- braggadocio (not just excited) tone

- different “voices” or styles
Makes it irrelevant. Headlines often commit much worse offences than using "0.75%" a shorthand for "three-quarters of a percentage point" anyway.

Norway may be at the far end of the spectrum, but it's not black and white. Most countries have resources and very few share them with their citizens. It's not just to be born into a system where an incumbent oligarchy has control of resources. That kind of modern realpolitik doesn't develop any kind of civic duty or pride.
Well if you have more than 2 levels you can always collapse, which is the preferred solution. Just walk the scenegraph, and flatten the matrices. Now you're left with an array of BLASses, each with their final matrix.

RTX has hardware support for this flattened structure only; OptiX will become significantly slower if you force it to have more levels.

There is no way that any renewable subsidies in the past decade could match the many decades prior. And, those subsidies are still running.
If Clausewitz is to be believed, killing the enemy army is priority 1, and territory only matters in pursuit of that goal.

Makes sense - if all combatants in the Russian army are dead, there’s no further need to defend territory for Ukraine. A boom with a border guard stamping passports would suffice.
Surely if a process is running multiple Isolates simultaneously, they're multi threaded and still require context switching? (accepted,
thread switches are less resource intensive than process switches). Interestingly when Chrome runs on Windows desktops it seems to allocate separate processes for each Isolate anyway, but I'm guessing this is not baked into V8?

I've got a total investment of well under $500 to achieve the above. Part of the beauty of this is that I can buy the cheapest, dumbest stuff and get the capabilities of the marked up junk.

Edit: I don't think I'm addressing your point. I find my system is extremely useful, keeps me safer, and saves me money. I feel that's worth my modest investment. Can you clarify your position? I do think that most IOT junk is hugely marked up (and hostile). I just think that Home Assistant is one of the few players in the IoT sphere that is _not_.
Tick bites are not mostly avoidable. It is mostly avoidable to have one on you for > 24 hours by checking constantly. Numbers of ticks have increased the past 2 years in my area of NH. I have gotten them walking from my car to the house. Also if you have animals that are treated with tick medicine they bring the ticks inside and then the tick drops off so you can get them in your house.
does it actually help to confine all of this into a single app?

outloud personal reflection:

I much prefer using simpler tools dedicated to specific tasks (todo, calendar, notes, pictures, websites, etc)

> I chuck random things into this so I can pull them out of my active memory and come back to them later.

I feel like maybe this is the heart of it, having a personal cache to make a temporary mess in until you have time to clean it up later. I could see that being useful - though id want to move everything out of that place and not organize things within it
Those are the things that I learned as well. And some other related aspects like change in taste: sensitivity to unwanted sugar, eating (and enjoying!) chocolate with more than 90% cocoa, unsweetened whipped cream, etc. Control of cravings, and the claimed increase in concentration (but costs creativity as a downside) also occurred and were good experiences.

I still think most people should not follow the diet without breaks, deficiencies simply exist in this one as well. I like my apple and also could not stand the sight of broccoli and cauliflower for a long time after finishing it.

I'm living now according to some kind of relaxed low carb method, combined with occasional interval fasting (also allowing ketosis).

Based on the name of the author, Jacco Bikker, I can blindly recommend this. He has decades of experience and knows how to combine modern computer graphics algorithms from the academic world with real world low level optimizations and a sauce of magic to create state of the art ray tracers.

>But that would require some kind of open standard for portability, no?

I like the approach AGGrid uses - they provide a viewport based interface that the grid uses to display data, and you can implement that interface on top of your data model - https://www.ag-grid.com/javascript-data-grid/viewport/. Unfortunately it's only available in their enterprise version, but this approach scales to both grid and chart based UIs. D3 has a bit of that flavor as well, since you can map visual attributes into your underlying data any way you'd like.

It's 2022 and theres still a goldmine of unencrypted data flowing on the public internet and under the ocean.

WHY?!?!?

It's time some backbone providers just started publishing a sample of plaintext info they see flowing over their networks. A simple tap of 0.0001% of traffic directed through a filter to look for words like "password" and stick it up on a webpage ought to do the trick.

Journalists would have a field day for a while trying to write an article about every insecure company, but before long everyone would properly encrypt their traffic to avoid the embarrassment at a minimum!

It seems like a lost cause because of the ever-escalating CPU demands of the present-day web. Keeping the phone running is one thing, making its browser able to keep up with the latest web bloat is another.

There are a lot of voices that seem to believe that isolationism is the way to go and that this will protect their 'lifestyle' from being impacted by the war in Ukraine. It's interesting how apparently some of history's lessons are impossible to learn, the exact same thing happened in 1938 and the end result was a much bigger war.

Also, the degree to which the world economies are now interconnected make it next to impossible to believe that a major war in Europe would not impact other parts of the world, which is super naive. Time will tell but I fear that we're in for a very rough ride if this current war doesn't get stopped in its tracks before it can engulf more territories, which ultimately will happen.

The only good thing is that now that the Russians have shown their true goals that the bulk of the 'NATA did this' or 'The Ukrainians only have themselves to blame' people have something to chew on.

Oh come on. Asia didn't invent the iPhone. They're not leading the self driving car race. The internet runs on AWS/Azure/GCloud not any Asian provider.

The same way that airplane drones are controlled, from a satelite in orbit directly above. To jam that you'd need to get yourself above the tank, which to be fair is probably doable to some extent, so there would have to be countermeasures for it. But it's not exactly impossible.
Well it's the only one that's really taken off.

I have a Pixel 2XL. It's in perfect condition, works well, and still has decent battery life on the original battery. It has no problems running everything I use, and there would be little benefit I would gain from getting a new phone. Yet Google dropped security updates at the end of 2020, as with the 3a, three years after launch, and around a year after they stopped selling them. My phone now nags me to buy a new one in the settings.

Now, it might be argued that Google has no obligation to produce updates for their products, but... if I try to improve security on the phone by using third-party distributions that are updated, rather than buying a new phone, then thanks to Google's SafetyNet, the phone will be crippled and have difficulty running many banking, payment, and other apps that are at this point a requirement in many situations. Thus, the reason the phone is problematic at this point is because of Google's working to make the phone unusable, not just the lack of updates.

It is bizarre that SafetyNet will vouch for the security of an OS Google itself argues to me is unsafe because of lack of updates, while not allowing a third-party distribution. Yet I suppose I wouldn't be surprised if Google eventually decides to have SafetyNet stop functioning entirely on older devices, in the name of security, to make them even less usable.

How do you make prototypes top-quality? Unless you know what you want, isn't it hard to make the best shape for that thing?
If you're talking about DJI or equivalents they only have 30 minutes or so of flight time and can carry at most one bomb at a time. They can be useful in guerrilla situations but firepower wise it's not even in the same league as a tank with 40-60 cannon rounds and several thousand machine gun rounds.
Fixed over what time period?

I think the interest paid is public knowledge, im wondering if the breakdown of rates/terms is known.

What I'm curious about is what it would look like if interest rates went to 10% in terms of the interest payments (as loans mature and rollover etc)
Python became mainstream thanks to be a saner Perl replacement and Zope.

CERN and Fermilab were already playing with Python as administration tool and data analysis during the early 2000's.

PHP became mainstream thanks to being a better Perl for Web applications, and the only option in many ISPs.

Ruby has Rails to thank for its adoption, a product produced by Basecamp.
I would say the inflation hurts middle class significantly more -- they at least have some savings/money.

However, if you are poor you would have more debt\less savings. As such a recession would be worse -- especially as it leads to less jobs and lost jobs.
>...Ukraine should probably have been more dovish towards Russian-speaking Ukrainians in the East, ie. not banning Russian language, not shelling cities.

This is an understandably myopic view. Especially now, as the whole charade of justification and "objectives" of russia's invasion in Ukraine is in full swing.

Perhaps, remembering that in putin's view, Ukraine is not an independent state, its existence is a mistake, the land is a sphere of russia's influence... well, the madman outright wants it "back" into the "empire".

Thus it has long been clear that no amount of pacifying or "non-irritating" is to alter such policy. Language, aspirations and affinities are simply pre-texts for the forceful grab.

Fundamentally, we're dealing with a clash of mentalities. One adopting to modern day and the one still stuck in the "age of empires".

To putin's russians, tank is a symbol of forceful conquest. So it's not going away. Perhaps, more images of the charred russian army tanks could break this perception... temporarily.
When your argument depends on all existing trends reversing, that tells us all we need to know about your conclusion.
You made a statement about "keto diets" in the plural, and "for control of obesity" in general. An anecdote would be you relating which of this plurality of keto diets you tried and what results you found with each of them. "Keto diets [...] are effective" is a conclusion one may or may not take away from such anecdotes, but it is not itself an anecdote.

Your link constantly uses the term "if", as in "if a federal leasing and development ban is enacted". Its not pointing out reality of today, its a projection on if some kind of ban (not exactly specified) were to be enacted.

You're pointing to theoretical projections and acting as if that's the ground truth today. These aren't the results of a current policy but are the theoretical projections of a theoretical policy decision that hasn't been enacted yet.

Short of implementing a Logan's Run-style system of government, the existence of individuals tends to get determined a couple decades before they'd be available for hiring as developers.
> and basically ended the interview on the spot. Told me that was more than they pay any of their senior positions.

You dodged a bullet. If they can't afford talent it's either that the business isn't doing good or that they voluntarily don't want to pay for talent (meaning they are going to go to competitors eating their lunch).

> In any case, just ranting. What's a good rate for a senior SWE or ML engineer in Europe these days? What can I get away with asking for without getting this reaction?

Same as in SV for SV caliber talent. The run of the mill recruiter isn't authorized to sign a contract with these numbers but it's getting incredibly common.

> Also, what's up with people asking this question in the first conversation?

Honestly, you want to have it as early as possible and not waste time with low balling firms. They can hires from body shops if they think they can get away with cheap devs.
Was going to say the same thing. IMO the snap concept would make it worth learning something new for some use cases - but forced automatic snap updates, high memory usage, long startup times and permission issues are not selling it. Moreover, Canonical is well aware of how snap is perceived, and has done diddly squat to fix it.
Interesting! Took doxy for months at a time, with a year being the longest ever taken it. The US military uses it as Malaria prophylaxis, so can end up taking it for a pretty significant amount of time. Never really had an side effects I can recall, but was in my early 20s at the time as well.

They don't offer the same level of firepower. A portable drone may be faster employed than a helicopter, large drone, or close support aircraft, but it suffers from lack of payload. It also takes longer to get on target, and has it's own set of vulnerabilities. (The vulnerability argument being that even if it is expendable, a drone disrupted or shot down does not help your unit eliminate the threat it was facing.)

A large-caliber, direct-fire gun provides long range, precise, and instant effects. As The Chieftan explains: https://youtu.be/lI7T650RTT8?t=934 (timecode link provided.)

Wait, what? Based on what reasoning? Was this before or after the Affordable Care Act?
Ah, that must have sucked. Photography can be _really_ bad for that kind of thing. Especially IMO since a lot of people think regular cameras are obsolete unless you are on Official Business. Just use your phone, etc.

You reminded me of one time when I was out walking with the idea of capturing some aircraft, so I had a superzoom with me. While walking into the hills I saw a house that was for sale, and I happened to be looking for a house, so I snapped a photo.

Some weeks later I greeted an acquaintance-neighbor on the street and they looked kind of conflicted while we spoke. After I crossed the street, post-greeting, they called out, "HEY, WHY ARE YOU TAKING PICTURES OF PEOPLES' HOUSES?" and I had no idea what to make of that...only to realize hours later that they lived across the street from the house that was for sale. Geez. I'll bet they absolutely hated the fact that the mysterious house photog greeted them like a normal person would!
I guess I'd pose the question to you, then: for that first example of the blind person who has experienced basically nothing other than language, what more could they learn from beyond finding patterns in the sounds of language? If they hear "Leaves are green", but they've never seen colors and have never been around anything like a tree or leaves, what other methods could they possibly use to learn that leaves are green beyond just recognizing that the sounds of the word "green" come after the sounds of the words "leaves are"?

As for the second example, while I agree that external context improves understanding, do you really think it's required for understanding? For instance, I took AP chemistry in high school, and much of that was learning about quantum mechanics, electronic configurations, etc. I have zero external experience for any of that -- hell, at the time, I hadn't even ever seen any microscopy of an electron cloud. So there's no context for those concepts outside of knowing how the words fit together and deriving meaning from that. Yet I'd still claim I learned the material (and my grades in that course would agree).
