My 'growth' comment referred to the laptop /desktop __market__ which medium / long term - which is what the investors will focus on - is clearly low growth.

Intel's single quarter performance in that market is quite a different thing altogether with short term post pandemic issues and Intel's own competitive struggles.
Been meaning to allocate funds for one of these since forever. Basically all the best Linux-based noisemakers in a tiny box.
I gave a demo in Mountain View of some excellent viz, on their big screen in some room. I wanted to make some tiny change to (plug something in) edit no not a new device, being polite, I suggested to move a device of theirs already on that network, closer to the overhead projector .. the alarm, consternation and definite NO that rippled through the three quickly-relaying employees there, was literally like an electric current. I was amazed that they couldn't change even the smallest thing, ever.

of course I was trying to get my brilliant colleague without a degree, noticed with that code; zero response, like stonewall. Later I read, that year Google got over 1million job applications.

Phone is literally only way how they can organize social life. Houses don't have landlines anymore. Teenager without phone means no socialization outside organized activities.
Can you expand on what you mean by "forced the police into survival mode?"

SPD is pretty ripe with all sorts of issues (e.g., they thought it was a good idea to teargas capital hill for days on end). They've kind of created a hostile relationship with their community.
Are you big enough to need terraform? If the answer is yes, you may have a good justification to move to kubernetes migrate tf->k8s with lots of benefits for the app teams (if they care). If you're just yolo setup your cloud in AWS web console and you're fine with that, then you may not see much lift. A good reason to use declarative (often infrastructure as code) approach to deployments is that it improves bus factor and the ability to hire people who can pick up and maintain the infrastructure.
If the trick to sensible page sizes is letting the site owners decide which features to enable, couldn't we go a step further and let users decide which features they need from each site?

Turn off ads? Disable third-party scripts site-wide? Don't send over any audio? How about webfonts? Tracking? Webgl? Webgl2?

Would it not make more sense to ask the user (or their agent) what features they want to use, before trying to figure out which dependencies are needed to make them work?

Could we optimize not just for speed and utility but also user feedback?
"Currently my job is relaxed, but I am not payed well now and live in the middle of no where. I can tolerate it in the short term, but I don't want to spend another 6+ months here. I want a new job relatively soon"

"Great pay increase, hiring manager seems great, in a city I really want to move to"

Take the new job. You are still very young and you can always look for the "low level" job in another year or so. What if your interests change in a year ? You would end up regretting not taking the better job anyway.
Yeah this guy’s a nutcase. The Biden admin repeatedly said Russia would invade Ukraine amidst Russia’s persistent denials.
Nvidia itself is a multi billion dollar corporation that has dominated GPUs for 20 years now.

I don't write Intel of but they have a LOT of catching up to do.
You are correct for the first number (181k to 100k), but not the second one, as the income tax is calculated by brackets defined in adavance[1]. A single person with no family winning 100k would have to pay 23k, leaving them with 77k. This is more than twice the average in France[2] and nearly thrice the median salary [3].

Quoting statistics from labor union coalitions [0] (usually mob controlled and heavily influenced by their agenda) is really flimsy evidence, aside from the fact that causal inference is not a part of it. So, yes, I reassert this is 'unverifiable' unionist talking points.

According to their own data, Amazon only had higher rates of "light duty" injury (most of which are not "serious" as they claim). This is easily explained by Amazon's need to report all cuts and bruises due to the targets on their backs, while others gladly omit them--especially say, unionized ones where the leaders would logically tell them to keep cuts and bruises silent to juice their numbers.

[0] The Strategic Organizing Center (SOC) is a democratic coalition of four labor unions: Service Employees International Union (SEIU), International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), Communications Workers of America (CWA) and United Farmworkers of America (UFW). Together, SOC-affiliated unions represent more than 4 million workers.

You don't lose it completely, though. And it's easier to relearn and get back on track than to learn it the first time.

I learned C like ten years ago and then I moved on to PHP and then to JavaScript. I'm sure I forgot most of it. But thanks to that, I'm now learning Golang and when it came to pointers it clicked almost instantly.
Please don’t reply to whatever innervated you, but take the time to read the thread and understand what is being discussed.
I think this may have to do COVID and then staffing shortages creating a necessity rather than a active business decision.

There's a Starbucks near me that was built as drive-through only. Where there should be a lobby, it's just blacked-out glass and a door for the employees to enter through. Makes the whole strip mall look really scary, especially since vagrants sleep in the doorway.

I assume it's for commuters, which means all Starbucks contributes to the neighborhood is traffic and crime. Thanks, Starbucks!

It would be ridiculous but couldn't you walk through the drive through?

I used to do this all the time when I was a kid, but more and more places won't serve walk-ups at drive throughs. They claim it's for safety, hygiene, insurance, or whatever the excuse-du-jour is. They just close the window and ignore you.
The only reason I ever downloaded TikTok was to watch cringe videos of people cosplaying having multiple personality disorder. I deleted it the same day.
I rarely argue online lately but I'll bite.

I think similar to your friend.

I'm anti-everything that pollutes even on a more instinctive level because my nose just can't handle gas odors / car exhaust etc I just hate it.

You will never fix climate change without first fixing wealth inequality.

Ain't no chance in hell John Doe will start biking to his workplace where he'll arrive drenched in sweat while he sees the CEO arriving in a private helicopter.

Another example: Bill Gates being a climate change activist, a noble cause of course but the guy owns the largest fleet of private jets no I do not care he offsets it with credits.

Forget about John Doe, think of Jose Gonzalez in some South American shithole, guy makes less than $50 a week as a taxi driver in his own car, his catalytic converter breaks down and it costs $500 you think he's going to replace it? No way.

I'm inviting everyone in this thread to step into the real world for a moment.
"if you lose your job then you're really taken care of" only if you've paid into insurance: to get taken care of you need to pay into both an a-kassa and an inkomstförsäkring. Ie, two insurances. The money you get from the government is usually capped, and capped low (considering all salaries in Sweden).

My source for the tax income: https://taxfoundation.org/top-personal-income-tax-rates-euro... note, it's the marginal tax rate, ie, what a person with a top salary would pay.

Also, remember the ISK accounts. By paying 0.375% on your account assets annually, you don't pay any capital gains tax. This is imo a big enabler for the "common person" to build up capital.
Thanks! Another reason this is still in alpha - I was not ready for someone to submit this to HN just yet.

Wow, how the world changed from using Google's CDNs to having to host it yourself.

I just pushed a fix to move the script to the local domain. It will be live in a few minutes.
Doesn't this mean you can't ever easily upgrade again? You have to re-fork and re-strip-out-the-things every time there's an upstream update?

Celebrating pride is the zeitgeist; they're doing it because they think it boosts their brand/is profitable.
If you had stopped with the first sentence, we could have written it off as sarcasm.

The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program appears to be in a state of suspended development, with little progress made in 2021 toward improving its lackluster performance. The latest report by the Pentagon’s Director, Operational Test & Evaluation (DOT&E) reveals stagnation and even backsliding in some fleet reliability measures.

And that’s just the public DOT&E report.

In an unprecedented move, DOT&E is concealing many of the key details of the F-35’s poor performance. For the first time ever, the testing office created a non-public “controlled unclassified information” version of its report, and although there is much overlap between the two versions, the meaningful details about the ever-troubled program are only included in the non-public one.

There's still a lot of discussion of this in the political discourse here in Norway, in fact I'd argue it's become increasingly more discussed as social media have taken over. Just recently, a law was passed requiring advertising that is edited to significantly change the physical appearance of people, to marked as such. One of the most common practices is editing to make a model's boobs look bigger, or her figure more hourglass-like. Removing skin blemishes is another. Details in the requirements are being ironed out right now, but I think this is a good example of a fairly simple regulation that should help improve things. It will become too expensive to try to do this kind of editing within the limits due to red tape, and the practice should go away almost completely in time. There's a lot more to be done in the ad, modelling, cosmetics, fashion, entertainment and tech(social media) industries to combat this though. But this kind of photoshopping practice is very harmful because it serves to amplify all of the other harmful signalling.

If women yelled and threw their weight around in the office as much as men they’d be fired immediately. Being emotional isn’t a woman thing, we just react differently to string emotion from men than women.
Almost nobody is doing this, and almost nobody ever will because it breaks accessibility and a whole host of other features. I would save the alarmism for another day.
This is an excellent idea, and I'm still waiting for BitWarden to implement soft-WebAuthn. That way I can just unlock my password manager (or, really, type in a passphrase that will generate the private key) and my browser can take care of all the authentication.

No need to store passwords, you can securely have one password for all sites. You lose the ability of rotating it if it gets stolen, but it's unlikely to get stolen if you never enter it anywhere else.
I've been turned away more often than not by restaurants (of a variety of brands) for attempting to walk/bicycle through the drive-through. I have no idea if it's corporate policy, franchise policy, or incapable exception handling by staff, but the de facto result is that no, you can't reliably go through a drive-through without a motor vehicle (I assume they allow motorcycles, despite that I can't see at all what the functional difference between a motorcycle and a bicycle is from the perspective of a restaurant drive-through).

Perhaps https://rclone.org/ would be of use to you. It handles other cloud storage providers as well, comes with convenient encryption functionality, and its synchronisation is far more reliable and controllable (at least this is my experience using it with OneDrive and S3).
Yeah but we can't expect them to be able to handle a problem that ( checks notes ) many other kinds of business have been solving since the earliest days of commerce.
the word is not "smart", the word is "autonomy" and there is none in that network environment. (see post above for real example)

We switched to it in the last year. It's been good for us, but it really depends on your use case. We deploy lots of different applications with different scaling requirements, so it's a great fit. If you're deploying one app without any unusual deployment requirements, it's probably overkill. Certainly there is a learning curve, but once you've got it down it's easy to throw new things into the mix.

People talk about it being incredibly complex, and honestly I don't see it. Yeah there's a layer of jargon you have to dive into, but it all makes sense once you start building something with it. By far the most complex pieces for us are the integration points with AWS (we're using EKS.) The examples/docs available are just not that great.
Deep Learning Translation: NLLB 200 vs. M2M100 vs. Opus MT
Hello,

Recently I've extensively tested Facebook's NLLB 200 3.3B (https://huggingface.co/facebook/nllb-200-3.3B) and M2M100 1.2B (https://huggingface.co/facebook/m2m100_1.2B) models for deep learning translation, as well as Helsinki's Opus MT (https://huggingface.co/Helsinki-NLP/).

My goal is to propose the best translation model on NLP Cloud (https://nlpcloud.com), while keeping server costs minimal, and human maintenance as easy as possible. Here are my conclusions:

- Opus MT gives good results and latency is very good, but it requires 1 model per language pair, which makes it a good candidate if your are only using one language pair, but not if you're using hundreds of languages. Besides, many language pairs are actually missing (Norwegian for example doesn't seem to be supported).

- M2M100 can translate in 100 languages, which makes it much easier to use than Opus MT if you need to use several languages. But quality is below Opus MT in my tests, and adult content isn't supported (the model replaces sexual content with funny words for examples). Latency is below Opus MT and it requires more advanced hardware (without a GPU the latency is really long).

- NLLB 200 can translate in 200 languages, which makes it even more attractive! Quality seems to be on par with Opus MT in the languages we've tested. The model does not enforce any sort of filtering on adult content. Latency is still a bit below Opus MT and it requires even more advanced hardware.

So my conclusion is that NLLB is the best candidate for NLP Cloud.

But I'm wondering if you've made similar comparisons on your end? If so, I would love to hear your opinion!

I'm surely also in that range. It took us years to write this project, but 57 C files is a small project. Others find themselves in the range where the build decision-making itself can take seconds, with tools other than ninja. Ninja is pared down for speed; having to declare keywords before I used them made me feel young again.

I had to write these build files over again, and I just couldn't stomach the idea of writing another makefile.
So to sum things up, you're suggesting that either US army officials in 2004 chose UCP to weaken the US military in preparation for a fascist coup in 2020 OR they chose a US gov owned pattern over commercial patterns to make money (somehow)? And you're calling my response defensive and weird lmao

> Bluetooth pairing

BT is just a disaster everywhere. My experience is that for "normal" use cases (input devices & headphone audio, basically) Linux is no worse than anywhere else, but still bad. Apple users think it's great because Apple made AirPods work, but that's a testament to Apple's integration engineering and not the underlying technology.

> Plugging in a new display doesn't immediately work

I haven't seen this with Intel drivers on a major distro in a long time. But yes, the driver story for other hardware remains somewhat weak. And obviously the farther you get from "Gnome on Ubuntu/Fedora" into the weeds of desktop choices, the weirder the feature set is going to get.

> A USB microphone fails to register as an input sound device

No idea here. I haven't seen a USB audio failure in a LONG time (closest I can think of is a Razer headset that has two chat/game output streams and Linux sees only one by default). Mostly likely you had a broken piece of hardware that worked in windows only by installing its own driver. And that sucks, but poor standards compliance is just something we all live with.
> A hardware key can be stolen, while my brain is only hackable by torture

Or keyloggers, shoulder-surfing, phishing, etc etc.

At this point, it just sounds like you don't want to like anything that's not passwords.
Ask HN: What do you use Airtable for?
So we are building a hub for task specific scripts for the needs of Windmill and hitting exactly this. We ended up not being able to use googleapis because it was too hard to import reliably with Deno. So in the end, we are ending up reimplementing a collection of per-task importable collection of googleapis. Example: https://hub.windmill.dev/scripts/gdrive/1279/delete-shared-d... that have permalink so you can use them in your own scripts: https://hub.windmill.dev/raw/101/delete_shared_drive_gdrive....
The employee doesn't pay 40% income tax on a 100k salary.

Income tax in France is progressive. You slice your income in brackets, and for each there's a tax rate. Your average tax rate is the average of your brackets.

The highest bracket in France is 45% for income above 160k, so for your total income tax rate to be about 40%, it would mean that you make an absolute shitload of money.

Income tax brackets, French, but the table is clear enough: https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F1419
Oh, cool, thanks! I didn't notice it's already there in the job posting's details.

How about promoting this flag to a column in the high-level grid display? It's pretty interesting, and would allow you to get a quick overview of the ratio of startups vs established companies. I imagine this would look rather different for Estonia vs Luxembourg, for example.

You are right about the importance of this information. But it would be even more useful if the latest funding round was included. Equity in a Series F has a very different risk/reward profile compared to equity in a seed round company.
It made us feel so insulted and betrayed that when my wife would cry in the NICU for any reason the nurses would tattle on her and she’d get a call from the pill pushers trying to prescribe her psych meds.

It’s like look, my kid has literally been in the NICU for 6 months now (it ended up being 9 months total) and you’re strongly pressuring us to get her a tracheostomy (let’s not use medical euphemism here though, they wanted to put a tube into our babies throat which would make her unable to cry and necessitate round the clock nursing care) as the “standard of care” (bullshit, it would have made her quality of life worse). But she’s a little upset, better prescribe her happy pills!

For anyone wondering, this was 2019 and my daughter is right this moment peacefully sleeping in her bed with no external breathing aids necessary aside from a wedge pillow to help with her sleep apnea. My blood boils when I think of what we were forced through (especially my wife) dealing with the medical establishment after our daughter was born, but the psych meds being dangled in front of us is a particularly sore spot.
