Agreed - if it could stroll right across the Pacific it would be compelling. But unfortunately Boom needs to stretch its legs a further 25% to manage LAX - China, or about 10% for Tokyo. An A350 takes about 9 hours to fly as far as Boom's range, which is a longish but not utterly brutal flight.
The reaction described in the article says that it strips an oxygen molecule from carbon dioxide, creating carbon monoxide.

CO typically only lasts for a few months in the atmosphere, but only because CO molecules react with oxygen, forming CO2.

So I think no, this could not be used to sequester CO2 from the atmosphere.

One mile takes maybe 20 minutes to walk? Call it 30. And I'm going to deal with a big, expensive device to trim that down to 15? I'm not going to take a car for that distance either unless there isn't decent walking infrastructure. And, if there isn't, I'm not going to take a Segway either.
Yeah to be fair I never actually liked Fusion 360 personally. I don't find it super intuitive, but it is quite powerful and polished and I know some people who use it professionally and can do magic in it. OnShape really is perfect to my tastes in terms of being super intuitive yet powerful, but the cloud aspect gives me heartburn. Part of me hopes Autodesk locking down what used to be very generous license terms on F360 might spawn more OSS work to replace it. Similar crackdowns on Eagle were what motivated a lot of the improvements to KiCAD in the last several years that really took it over the line to being a tool I think is legitimately competitive.
I recently got a Mazda CX-5. Previous car was a Ford Escape. I much prefer Mazda’s approach. The touchscreen on the Ford was a pain to use after several years. I think the screen’s touch sensitivity degrades over time. I don’t know. It was especially bad in winter. I haven’t owned the Mazda long enough to know if the joystick will degrade much over time but I find the interface easy to use and navigate. It does sometimes take a while to acknowledge a click. That’s annoying but overall I really like Mazda’s approach.
So you guys developed and implemented state of the art neural network vector search from scratch? in a year? and something better than libraries with tens of contributors over years of research?
It's not as much of a tradeoff as you think. I've been on cruises and would rather be first class on Emirates or Qatar Airways than on a cruise.
Canonical adds .NET to Ubuntu 22.04
Then you are a real advocate for predatory marketing or doordash or you are just a pedant...
Exactly. And having gone through the install process to the point of a usable desktop, I learned a ton about what I'd need later to fix the issues myself, quickly. And then when everything just worked, much better than Ubuntu, I installed Arch on a few other machines and got even more practice.

The learning curve may have been steep but it definitely paid off in my understanding of how to maintain and fix issues going forward. And just my understanding of Linux overall.
The 75% isn't calculated per player or per session. It's the theoretical minimum payout over the long run. Basically it's just code that does

Syntax affects semantics.

Seeing "Why he dumped his clothes on the bed?"
you can guess that they MEANT to say was "Why did he dump his clothes on the bed?"

But there's a bit of uncertainty there, was that really what they meant to say? Or did they mean to say something like "Why did he dump his clothes on the bed IS MY QUESTION" but somehow the rest of the sentence got lost.

Syntactically correct sentences have typically a much more precise semantics than syntactically incorrect ones. One could argue that incorrect syntax means the meaning is anybody's guess.

Point is when we read or hear language we must interpret it by assuming what we think the speaker wants to say. But if syntax is incorrect that becomes much more difficult. Therefor correct syntax is a god-send for getting your point across.

Think about the way browsers interpret HTML. They allow you to deviate from the standard somewhat. But that causes different browsers to produce different visible output. Not a good thing. Maybe the coder thinks they are getting their point across, but depending on the audience, what browser they are using, the "point" can get lost. Best bet is to use standard syntax.
Good point! Thanks for taking the time to explain that to me.
That's a clever thought. Do you know whether connections could be established outside the tunnel after you disable airplane mode but before the tunnel is re-established?
For anyone dealing with very shoddy connection, I'd highly recommend mosh: https://mosh.org

I used it when trying to use my iPad for minimalist development (mosh + ec2 + vim + Go) and it worked great compared to SSH.
> Buttons, dials, or trackpads that move a cursor or select items on a screen are slower than touch-based UIs, require at least as much driver attention, and are less ergonomic than just putting your finger on the exact item you want

Mercedes does this really well. I was surprised.

You can use the screen as a touchscreen, or there's a dial thingy on the armrest that lets you scroll around the UI by flicking your fingers. Similar to keyboard navigation on computers.

The end result is a touchscreen you can use effectively when stationary and an easy-to-use control for when you're moving and need to deal with your arm moving relative to the car. And the sequence of UI selections are intuitive enough that after 20min you can do it almost without looking.

My understanding is they've been working on this combo for 10+ years. Newer models (since ~2018) have a full on touchpad instead of the wheel.

No problem. To me it is an interesting question in itself in general; as such I do not think you are baiting anyone.

I am mildly concerned that what we are experiencing in our chat can be classified as 'cultural differences'. As such, our assumptions and cultural norms may not be the same.

With that in mind, I probably should define few things.

1. What is tyranny[1]?

- oppressive power
- a government in which absolute power is vested in a single ruler
- a rigorous condition imposed by some outside agency or force
- an oppressive, harsh, or unjust act : a tyrannical act

A lot of people default to the 2nd one, because it is, the one most covered in our history lessons. That said, just because it is the most recognized definition, it is not the only one. I have a pet theory as to why, but that is probably not a place for such musings on my part.

2. Beyond that, I noticed that the questions attempt to conflate societal and governmental rules, which is fair as you want to establish the lines, but I fear it may muddle the point somewhat. It is possible I am channeling Chomsky a little here, but would you be willing to accept a distinction between private power ( corporation ) and societal power ( society and its byproduct government )?

If so, I think we can try to answer those questions.

>> Is paying for food/rent also a tyranny? (because who actually wants to pay for that)

Food and shelter are necessities. For practical purposes, any governing structure quickly recognizes that hungry and homeless population ( especially if it outnumbers fed population and population with an abode ) is a recipe for an end to that governing structure. As such, most bodies do try to keep basic minimum needs met.

That said, it does not appear to meet the definitions above at this time. Although, we are slowly reaching a boiling point of renting/housing being so expensive that it is "oppressive, harsh, or unjust act". Food-wise, it does not appear to be the case yet despite record inflation. Most can still eat, albeit not as much, or as well, as they used to

>> Is the need to contribute to society a tyranny?

Depends. What is the society we are discussing? Is the contribution unfair? If so, tyranny definition could apply.

>> Is it a tyranny to enforce laws like a speed limit through a school zone?

Maybe? Is the law enforced in an unfair manner ( say only women are stopped )? If so, tyranny definition could apply.

In short, I do not really believe in one and zero type answer. If anything, it is a spectrum of sorts and this does not even begin to cover the deeper dive into differences between corporate and non-corporate power structures.

I hope I did not make it too esoteric.

LOL - I was wondering how you would do this without actually implementing Raft.

It appears you actually did implement it!
This completely, OpenCASCADE is just not a good enough foundation to build something as powerful and stable as SolidWorks on, and I'm not convinced it could become one. It would take 10s millions dollars and many years to build a new geometric kernel that would allow an open source CAD package to compete at the same level as the "Pro" packages. That would require a massively collaborative effort in the engineering community lead by a company (or two) with deep pockets and an agenda!
It's quite simple to verify your assertion. Someone should show people some pieces of art and ask them to rate the quality of each of them. If the rating between human-made art and machine-made art doesn't differ significantly, then we can comfortably say that there is nothing special on art produced by humans. I think I know what the result will be, but hopefully some researcher will carefully investigate this issue.

There are places in the world where the art/author scene is thriving. For example - there's only 30K journalists working for 6K newspapers in the ENTIRE USA[1], which is a rather tiny, pathetic number if you think about. it. Whereas in developing countries such as India, that number is much, much higher. Newspapers and media are a growth industry in India. Whereas in the USA, newspapers are shutting down at the rate of 2 per week. Since the average Indian is very likely to read an English newspaper, it paradoxically makes sense for American journalists to relocate to India and practice their craft there! The canonical posterboy for this case is Anand Giridhardas[2]. His parents, like most Indian immigrants, bent over backwards to obtain a coveted American visa, became citizens and settle down peacefully in Seattle - only to find that their All-American kid, born & brought up entirely in the USA with zero connections to India, decided to become a journalist, went to journo school, then decided to relocate to India & become a reporter over there! I used to be a member of a journo association back in the day, and Anand's name was always mentioned as some sort of puzzle - why would an American kid, that too born to Indian parents who would insist that their kid pursue STEM or medicine so some such stable lucrative profession, end up as a journalist, and even worse, go back to India, when it was so difficult for his parents to immigrate to the USA in the first place ?!

Neat site! Reminds me of something showcased on Awwwards/CSSDA.
Assuming you're working in a team, stale PRs aren't uncommon, they're just more indicative of a prioritisation problem in the team. A bot cannot help except to serve reminders that it is still open.
It doesn't have to be a touchscreen, nor part of the infotainment. The inexpensive compliant solution is a rearview mirror with embedded 2 or 3 inch LCD.
The safety risk isn't necessarily an insurmountable obstacle; I could imagine the U.S. government being more likely to approve sending a nuclear reactor into space if it was NASA that was asking as opposed to a private company, but either way it's more of a political problem than a technical one.

Nuclear rocket engines are tricky. Nuclear reactors don't actually work very well in space because there isn't any convenient way to get rid of the excess heat. A vacuum is a very good insulator, so usually your only option is just to radiate it away as infrared light.

With a rocket there's another option which is to transfer all the heat to the reaction mass you're expelling out the back of the ship. That sounds like a hard engineering problem though.

Using a reactor on the Mars surface is a lot more straightforward because you can use the local air and ground to transfer heat. And since Mars is so cold, you might even get better steam generator efficiency there than on Earth, where the ambient temperatures are higher.

One of the hopes with fusion is that if it pans out it might be reasonable to send a fusion reactor to Mars since you wouldn't need to send radioactive fuel rods. In fact, maybe the first practical fusion reactors will be used on Mars before they're used in more than a demonstrative capacity on Earth because they fit a very specific need, there are barriers to using the alternatives, and cost per kw/h isn't the most important constraint.
I don't think that argument holds up. A VR headset, say, is astronomically high up the hierarchy of needs, but I know very few people who'd say the inherent value of a piece of modern technology is zero.

It really seems to be art specifically which people are often keen to describe as worthless, not any particular category of good that artwork might fall into.
So it's good for some fields other than performers?

I've met plenty of stock brokers and engineers that skate by on credentials - I try to avoid them professionally because they tend to produce workplaces with exceedingly high demands and low compensation due to the drain they introduce on the system... but they continue to exist.

Heck, HN has many time had discussion on C-level folks who basically revolving door their way from failure to failure and still get huge golden parachutes when they sign on to a new company even though their performance history is trash.
You might be thinking about kcp?

https://github.com/kcp-dev/kcp
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaPBYUfdFE8

The team is developing the idea and has made a lot of progress. Fair warning, some of the recent progress is not accurately represented in the demos / docs.

I think the ideas behind kcp, along with this work from crossplane, is a great example of the Kube ecosystem exploring new opportunities (also vcluster and cluster api nested). Infrastructure control planes have a lot of potential advantages for streamlining complex environments for consumers.

edit: This work from crossplane is awesome because it benefits kcp which is trying to hit that next level (an example of giving back that benefits everyone)
That's the thing. Offices don't have to have a 9-5 schedule. For example - just today I started working at 10am at home. I had a 30 minute remote meeting and then followed up on a couple of things before driving in at 11. I had a 1:1 over lunch with my manager. I did some code review and talked with my co-workers. Then I left at 3:30.

I got free lunch. I got to see my manager face-to-face to have a pretty serious conversation. I got free snacks.

Your net worth is $1.7 billion, you can fuck off with your concern about that one home of yours experiencing a dip in value.

I realize this comment isn't in the typical spirit of an HN comment, but that's just gross.
For me the big difference with Arch is that you choose all the different pieces (networking, disk setup, desktop environment, login manager, etc.), so when something goes wrong, you know exactly where to look. If something goes wrong in Ubuntu, especially as a beginner all you can do is google "Ubuntu wifi disconnecting" or whatever. It's definitely more work to get installed, but you come away with something very personal, that you understand very well.
goto is generally _unscoped_, the languages in which it is scoped are exceptions. Right? goto in C is unscoped, afaik?
It's even more verbose in a lot of common cases, actually. (Although the ? operator has made things better).

Yeah, they drive while holding their phones on speakerphone while talking into it like they're about to take a bite out of a sandwich.

Other than volume and next track/station, just about any other media control is going to have my hand off the wheel for a bit and probably require me to look at what its doing even if its all just a bunch of buttons and knobs. Like what, change which folder I'm in? Change to a different playlist? Choose a different app entirely? None of that is going to be done by just feeling around the dashboard.

And as mentioned, I'd probably return any car that I have to adjust the climate more than once a quarter. Every car I've owned for over 20 years has been able to keep its climate consistent and comfortable without the need for me to make adjustments for months on end. Why would I want to be distracted making minute adjustments to the climate settings while I drive? Why would I want to have to change the mode or turn it to more heat or more cool or turn the AC compressor on or off while I drive? Shouldn't it just be able to figure out if the car is cold turn up the heat and if the car is hot turn on the AC compressor? Wouldn't it know the optimal way to cool itself? Shouldn't it be able to figure out the best fan speed to keep the climate as programmed ahead of time?

Honestly, why should I even have to tell my car to turn on the heated seats? I don't need to on one of my cars, it turns it on automatically when its cold outside.

My gut feeling is that artists will be the primary users of these tools and there will be a large market for those who are very skilled at producing, curating, tweaking, and post-processing the results. Some jobs will be lost due to clients who do it themselves, but there will be enough people who don't want to learn the tools no matter how simple they are. I also think the tools will become more complex.
