It absolutely is an image. There are multiple definitions for an image - from a graven image in the Bible to a heroic image in sculpture or even to an image in someone's imagination. You are using a definition of a photographic or computer reproduction as the sole definition for the word image. That's not correct.
I say this from experience doing both. It's the user behaviour. Google searches also direct people to the app if done on an Android device. In developing countries, a lot of people don't own a PC, so digital stuff is through a low end phone which doesn't have the memory to run Chrome, lol.

It's strong enough that apps are a part of the marketing strategy, especially if it involves digital purchases. Sites are good for previews, apps for monetization.

It could well be different for US, which is iOS heavy, or the HN crowd which prefers to avoid Google.

Americans are more likely to have a credit card, including minors. In developing countries, a lot of people still transfer money via an ATM. A housewife might go to the store, reload $25 into her phone, use only $5 of that for calls, and the rest is transferred into Google Play credit to buy e-books or in app purchases.
Honestly it’s not even an AR game (unless you count GPS location based gaming as AR). Anyone who plays PoGo turns off the AR mode after about 5 minutes and only turns it on for taking pictures of their Pokémon running around the park/house/pool/etc.

Despite what Niantic thinks, they don’t really have much of an AR vision besides reskinning Ingress/Pokémon Go. They aren’t an AR company, they are a “makes money with a license for the insanely popular Pokemon franchise” company.
I hear they do a great job of respecting LGBTQ rights in the West Bank and Gaza!
My Minimalist iPhone, iPad and Mac Setup
I was recently interviewing with a large hedge fund, but all their infra was legacy stuff. Windows servers, file system based applications, etc. I was totally turned off. It seems like a job like that may pay a lot but you'll be stuck dealing with legacy software and your skills will atrophy.
I think a lot of those problems are solvable in principle, although unfortunately it’s probably not practical and incremental enough to actually happen...

I’m envisaging a system of minibuses, either AI-driven or at least dynamically directed by a central control system. People would use a phone app to book journeys; the app would tell them where to get on and where to transfer, and the central control system would optimise the fleet to get everyone where they need to go.

With much smaller buses, and electronic tap-in rather than cash payments, stops should be fast enough that buses can just queue up in order at each stop, hopefully mitigating the parking difficulties you mentioned (modulo breakdowns, medical emergencies, etc). Likewise, if transfers are fast and easy, hopefully they’d be less objectionable to travellers.

Requiring a phone isn’t ideal as it limits accessibility and privacy. There could also be pre-printed tickets, with QR codes that you scan at the bus stop to see the route info.

Why minibuses and not just taxis? I suspect there’s a good balance to be made between efficient road usage (buses) and efficient routing for each traveller (cars).

I’m also envisaging that if this system were to take off, personal cars could be gradually removed from city centres! Again, that makes life easier for the AI vehicles.

This is all pie-in-the-sky stuff, I know; but I do feel like there are ways we could radically improve city transport mostly using existing roads, rather than building new rails or tunnels.

Minimalist Apple Life
This has nothing to do with File Transfer Protocol.
Nothing has eternal life.

Especially not electronics. And certainly not more advanced semiconductors.

The rule-of-thumb is the lifespan of planar CMOS processes in years is proportional to the "node size" in nanometers. So we are right now at 2-10 years. Some specific ICs or specific applications or specific designs can be bigger or smaller than this but it's the average.

If you've ever worked on "antique" electronics, this is no surprise.
The Truth About Stimulant Medications for ADHD
Every input must be scaled by one’s certainty the source is portraying an accurate and honest representation of the underlying facts (if you don’t perform such scaling I have no interest in your arguments).

Before you made the above comment, I had my default small but nonzero belief you were portraying your experience accurately and the same for your source. Thus, multiplied together, the information carried little (but still nonzero!) weight. This isn’t me being difficult, it’s quite literally the at the core of any reasonable legal system.

After you made this comment, willfully and egregiously misrepresenting what I said for the sake of… I don’t know what… I hold zero belief that you accurately and honestly represent underlying facts in arguments — meaning this thread has reached its natural conclusion. Cheers, have a good day.

Undoubtably, at high volume, he’s bound to get a few right. Still, I don't agree with the extrajudicial process, full stop. I’d rather have a few shit-stain racist internet trolls um trolling than decent people constantly under fire for dissenting viewpoints.
When Roe V Wade was overturned, there was a lot of talk encouraging women to remove period tracking apps in case the data could be used against them in the future. But the easiest way to track women is to simply watch financial transactions for abortion bills or services at a clinic. Even if you try to obfuscate by having a friend pay, if there are no private, cash-or-crypto links, it's trivial to connect the dots.

It was a reminder to me that being able too freely and privately make financial transactions is one of the most important and fundamental rights we have.
HN is wild lol, if this is correct then Disney wouldn't exist.
It would be exceedingly challenging.

It's probably best to think of supplementing rather than replacing external food supplies and sources. Raising perishable / vegetable crops and having a source of protein (fowl -> eggs, goat -> milk) would probably be your best bets.

You'd need to spend an extraordiary amount of time preserving harvest: drying, salting, smoking, curing, fermenting, and canning.

On a per-acre and per-hour basis, potatos are probably your best bet. A carb-heavy diet will tend to add pounds.

The traditional native American crops were the Three Sisters: corn, beans, and squash:

https://www.almanac.com/content/three-sisters-corn-bean-and-...

These are mutually symbiotic (the beans add nitrogen to the soil, I believe there's some pest-management aspect to this as well).

Preindustrial communities also relied heavily on fishing and shellfish --- another iconic pattern are shell mounds, literally the remnants of shellfish eaten. (See Shell Mound Road in Emeryville, as an example, in the SF Bay Area.) Grazing livestock was another standard.

Note that the native population of regions such as the Los Angeles basin may have been a few thousands, and for pre-Columbian North America (including Mexico and Central America) roughly 50 millions.
I think the great thing about our industry is that most of us can set our hours and work any block in a 24 hour period. Personally, I've had the best success going to sleep when I'm about to get tired, and getting up without an alarm when I'm done sleeping. That tends to be several sets of 2-3 hours a night. Generally, I don't get sick every year, but when I do, the first sign is I sleep a full 9-10 hour span.

I also notice that napping is not good for me. Unless I can sleep the full 2 hour span, I'm better off waiting until bedtime. I suspect shorter naps disrupt a rem cycle and cause a fogginess upon waking, where the full rem cycle being 2-3 hours I wake up feeling like I've had a good coffee. You can train yourself to notice this as you pass through various stages of 'awareness' while you're sleeping. Each time you remember seeing your clock, that is usually one complete rem cycle.

If the day were 28 hours long, it would match my needs perfectly. Why is this?
Oxygen is also a poisonous gas that is slowly oxidizing your body, but as far as we know, humans have been exposed to it constantly since prehistory. I'm sure the same could be said for sleep loss, whether because they are stressed about work, or stressed about falling out of the tree and being eaten by the lions below.

Try your best to get a good night's sleep, but don't let these kind of "recent studies show" articles distress you too much. There are all kinds of harms in our environment holding us back from hypothetical perfect health, and there always have been.
Dall-e still has a lot of work to be done with face construction.

It wouldn't. A real "smart road" implementation would require us to literally fence off those roads so pedestrians, deer, children, bicyclists, etc. cannot use them. And they would likely fail in any kind of inclement weather -- fog, snow, rain, etc.

Essentially an admission of failure for the self-driving car industry.
Yes I sometimes download recipe app from advertisement on recipe sites. Recipe sites push app aggressively. So I think app store isn't good marketing channel to find recipe app, but just a repository.

I believe government incentives and regulations will have a huge effect on the speed of adoption in a country, and China and Europe have both of those. I don't think mineral extraction will have much effect on locality. Shipping is pretty cheap - we already move oil to refineries and gasoline to filling stations.

Caffeine's half life is around 5 hours[1], I'd say it's fine if you drink it in the morning.

I don't get the forced top level Communities/Servers/Workspaces. I guess I'm not typical since a lot of messengers seem deeply invested in this design (Discord, Slack, Element) but for personal use I really just want DMs and groups. Even just switching between two Discord Servers and one DM gets old really quick. I get why Slack does it, it makes sense from a work context. (At least until you have a public Slack, private Slack, a kubernetes slack and more that are a pain to switch between). But for personal I just hate it.

FYI - the "natural preservative" for sausage and meats is celery salt.

Guess what celery is natural high in? Nitrites.
Japan is a different case due to a very outlier culture and extreme density that people live in.

But mostly, people are living so close to each other than delivery is much cheaper. It costs a minimum $0.60 plus labor costs per minute of driving in the US. Cost to run a 15 min errand is $7+, and that is excluding the person’s time and effort.
This is what I say when people call Musk a showman and a fraud.

I say that I must be imagining that I’ve actually been driving an EV for the past four years.

Bugs? Yea. Some really dangerous ones we all have read about.
Manufacturing defects? Yup!

My connection with this is just that I was in Google Maps, and I knew some of the people who worked on Ingress. At the time, a "location-based game" seemed like a brilliant idea. I guess the novelty wore off.

The Angry Birds analogy is spot on. A game is just a fad, unless you manage to turn it into a franchise. The best financial model, if you have a successful fad, is "take the money and run." You just won the lottery, which tells us nothing about your innate ability to win lotteries.
If you are tired at all, you need to address it. I highly recommend getting a sleep study.

I don't think the provider of an AI image generator service can decide they own the copyrights to it (perhaps they can require you assign the copyrights, though it may not even be copyrightable?), only courts can (and they decided the person setting up cameras for monkeys didn't own the copyrights to the monkey photos)?
The main reason for the reflex mirror is film. So this is saying that Nikon will get out of film cameras.

So if you want a Nikon film camera - for reasons - better buy one now.
That estimate seems more than a little high!

It depends on what you mean by "balanced diet" (are you going to require meat?) but let's just work an example with sweet potatoes, which are pretty nutritionally packed and can be ludicrously productive.

Let's say you planted just one acre over with sweet potatoes; you could grow roughly 5 tons of usable roots, about 10,000 kcal/day. Swap some of that area out for other crops for nutrient balance and you'd still have a huge excess for one person, even accounting for a farmer's caloric needs. You might also end up hating sweet potatoes after a year, but that's why you specialize in a few calorie crops and then trade with others for what you need.

Anyway, it seems to me that an acre would be more than enough for a whole family.
I read the blog post and the Java documentation (which is more informative), and maybe I missed it, but I can't figure out how you define the # of streams/partitions. Is it defined when the superstream is created?

What's the general practice for multi-tenancy? Say we have millions of clients with thousand being added daily and for various reasons, at least for _some_ message types, we'd like to keep them separate (for example, maybe strict ordering is super important, so we can't throw messages away, but we don't want a poison message to impact all customers).
We already switched from Teensy 3.2 to Teensy 4 because 3.2s are unobtainable.

My honest complaint isn't even with the Macbooks. They are not that bad, just overpriced, unless you consider the "enjoyment" (a.k.a vanity) of a product aesthetics worth spending money on. In the same way many people buy performance sports cars only to drive at speed limit 99% of the time. Besides thermal throttling, there are plenty of issues afoot that simply don't exist compared to a laptop with well supported linux hardware running a lightweight distro.

The problem is that the general myth of them being "top tier", which solely comes from aesthetics because they will fail any comparable real world use case test against comparable options, causes them to be so prevalent with developers. Take every single Amazon developer for instance - each of them has a private VM "dev-desktop" for development, because while all the services people develop run on AWS in a Linux environment, they want to be an attractive employer and bling out their developers with an MBP.

So now instead of the correct solution of just issuing everyone Linux laptops (and before you say that its not a reliable solution, consider that you are saying that a company that built and runs the behemoth that is AWS can't hire competent dev ops/it to provision Linux on developer laptops), they waste way more resources, internal tooling sucks (they have a tool that basically rsyncs directories over ssh just so you can develop on your mac), and causes additional issues due to incompatibility of some JNI native libraries, case sensitivity of the file system, e.t.c.
Cryptomator provides entire encrypted remote drives. Age is a simple command line utility that is normally used to encrypt single files. Different sorts of things.

Age in asymmetrical mode would be particularly bad for remote storage as it doesn't authenticate the file in this mode. The people running the server would be able to overwrite the files with whatever they wanted if they could get access to or figure out the public key used.
No. Just on their SATs.

That's too bad. They seemed to be on the right track, actually doing what Magic Leap faked. Niantic could actually make AR fun.

Disney has organically grown over the better part of a century. VC funding is predicated on way higher growth rates.

Look at any movie studio, Disney, HBO, etc and you'll find this same story repeated time and time again. Every one of them grew at much slower growth rates. There was no 10x'ing of revenue in a few years (when in the billions).

Even outliers like Pixar existed for 20 years before becoming a significcant component of Disney.

Book publishing? Same deal.

No original content business has followed a VC growth trajectory like tech companies have. Not one. You might be tempted to argue Netflix has but Netflix has taken on a ton of debt and raised a ton of VC funding and used their profits to throw money at this problem with mixed results.
Don’t forget small talk and shared toilets.
Regular rotation of shelf-stable products is the way to go.

Water is often the under-appreciated stock --- people use a lot of it for drinking, cleaning, and cooking (espeically with dried / reconstituted foods). Here a supply, and means of producing more potable supply (a quality filtration system, backpacker and marine filtering systems are useful) and purification (chlorine or iodine in liquid or tablet form) help.

It's possible to store grains (whole or ground, flour, wheat, rice, maize) for years, though you need to get rid of moths / worms first. That usually means freezing in smaller portions (2.5 -- 5 kg / 5--10 lb), and then transferring to airtight storage. Rodents can and will chew through both plastic and metal, isnpect frequently. Invest in a cat (or snakes). A chest freezer won't survive a long-duration power-outage, but is useful so long as juice flows, and can make this pest-proofing much more viable. These consume very little power.

I can tell you from first hand experience it was. 4mb was the minimum requirements and I can tell you, that legally MS was correct in that statement. When I eventually did get a copy of Win95 plus Update (SP1 basicly), I ran it for exactly 1 week before I scraped together enough money to purchase another 8mb of RAM from Fry's. After that it was fine, at least until it blew itself up.
I am incredibly envious of people who have good or even average sleep. For some reason the last year or so I haven't been able to sleep well if I drink too much water. You know, that thing that we all need to survive daily? It's super messed up and every specialist I see waives it off.

I also get really bad sleep anxiety/water anxiety. And you're right, articles like these are only good for scaring normal people who fight their own bodies from sleeping. They're pointless for people whose bodies are fighting them and can only generate more stress.
Dose amount is always less considered factor.
