In the above example, the author does not reach further. Imagine a comedian taking another comics joke but just find/replaces the 'rabbi' with 'priest' and claims it as his own. I'd call that copying.

Not to say small incremental improvements aren't good or worthy of businesses, I'm not. I think those are good and worthy. But the size and nature of the epsilon does matter because if the change isn't significant, then the result is effectively just a copy.
>By taking more responsibilities and delivering beyound your pay scale.

Is that a healthy advice for someone struggling with Burnout/depression like OP?

And I beg to differ. Taking on lots of work is by no means a guarantee to management promotion everywhere. Often management positions go by means of connections, and are awarded subjectively to the favorable people management likes most, not to the most productive people. That's why so many managers are clueless and nearly incompetent. Because it's not always a meritocracy.
Same! I complained (nicely) to Frigidaire and they are covering cost of full repair.
For me 9 times out of 10 when I manually restart my device I want a fresh start anyway.
I agree, maybe it's more if it aligns with your own sense of self to be an adventurer or routinist.

But I have always felt the day you stop growing at all must the day you start shrinking.

The Japanese have a saying about it, "reason for getting out of bed in the morning", maybe for some people that reason is to complete their routine, for others to discover something new.

>_and_ there was no way to check if it were deterministic by experiment, I would lean on the side of not constructing a mechanism to justify that it is deterministic.

This is the core of your disagreement. You suppose Occam's razor dictates something appearing unfalsifiably random is in-fact random. The other side supposes that you're the one making a stretch, since everything which can be falsified categorically turns out to be deterministic.
> ...and I believe in liberty and capitalism," he said. "Those are my twin values. And I feel like, you know, with the way freedom of speech is today, the movement on gun control, a lot of the liberties that I've taken for granted most of my life, I think, are under threat."

He's leaving WF soon. This sounds like he's running for political office. Nothing wrong with that per se. Only that the publisher should be transparent about being hired for helping to set the stage.

That aside, it's kinda ironic since the left is more pro-organic, pro-sustainability, etc. I'm also wondering what WF pay and work conditions are like? Like an Amazon warehouse??
Ask HN: What are the most efficient GI rendering algorithms in the recent years?
26 June 2022: "The past year has mostly been spent on the uncore and tools; the ISA itself is essentially finished. Uncore includes behind-the-scenes parts of the chip like the PLB, TLB, interrupts, and spiller. Tools include the compiler driver, the post-linker and pre-linker, debug support, documentation, and LLVM intrinsics."

I think they are also working on a funding round which will allow them to file their next batch of patents.
There’s a chance podcasts aren’t for you. After listening to a couple briefly, I found I’m not interested in them. Subjecting myself to an oration from a single point of view, without comments feels like brainwashing to me, or at least very one dimensional. I’d rather spend that time in silence with my own thoughts.
I think I hate "back in my day" about as much as anyone else, but the short article quotes him raising valid points; plus, being co-founder and CEO of Whole Food with >40 years there all suggest that he may have some awareness of the topic. I'll check out the podcast later.

Edited for clarity.
I have something similar. This is the reason my organisation of source code is primarily by-language at the top level.

At least you can get a fixed cost if you go that route vs. your bills growing at an exponential rate. From what I have found, PA really wants you to commit to annual pricing with their VM appliances. If you go hourly you pay 73% more.

My workstation setup, both for Linux and MacOS, is in the following repository: https://github.com/sirikon/workstation

https://github.com/sirikon/workstation/blob/master/src/cli/c...

For Linux, it can install and configure everything I need when launched on a clean Debian installation. apt repositories, pins and packages; X11, i3, networking, terminal, symlinking configuration of many programs to Dropbox or the repository itself... The idea is to have my whole setup with a single command.

For Mac, it installs programs using brew and sets some configurations. Mac isn't my daily driver so the scripts aren't as complete.

Also there are scripts for the terminal to make my life easier. Random stuff like killing any gradle process in the background, upgrading programs that aren't packetized on APT, backing up savegames from my Anbernic, etc. https://github.com/sirikon/workstation/tree/master/src/shell

And more programs for common use, like screenshots, copying Stripe test cards into the clipboard, launching android emulators without opening Android Studio, etc. https://github.com/sirikon/workstation/tree/master/src/bin
From the report:

This was Team82’s approach as we decided to research this novel attack vector, by finding vulnerabilities in each of the seven engineering workstation platforms that allowed us to weaponize the PLC in a way that when an upload procedure is performed—upload procedures involve the transfer of metadata, configurations, and textcode from the PLC to the engineering workstation—our specifically crafted auxiliary pieces of data would cause the engineering workstation to execute our malicious code.
Let me give you the scoop on the Carolina's. I'm a developer living in the upstate of SC. I am an agnostic liberal which makes me a rarity but I was born here so I can go under the radar thanks to my deep melodious southern accent.

Pros

- Great climate 10 out of 12 months
- Friendly people
- Lots of outdoor activities
- Beautiful beaches (Fripp Island and Kiawah especially)
- Low cost housing (altho going up rapidly)
- Greenville and Charleston are very nice

Cons

- Heart of MAGA land (this may be a pro depending on your politics)
- First question is about what church you go to
- Can still be shockingly racist at times (altho getting much better)
- Weak zoning so sprawling construction and walkable areas limited
- Food choices can be limited for vegans/vegetarians
- July/August - the heat and humidity are rough
For this setup I would rather go with some of the Mikrotik gear. I have the hEX S as a router and if you only need 4 device ports it saves you having a separate switch. This one has a newish CPU so routing performance is pretty much line-rate and it also has an SFP cage so depending on your provider setup you might even get the fiber directly into this device (mine sadly uses GPON with dedicated crypto built into the media converter so I could not use it). It is very feature rich and only costs about 75EUR here.

The upgrade pick would be the RB5009 with SFP+, 2.5GBe and 8GBe ports, much-much more CPU. The availability of this is pretty bad tho, I have the PoE version on order.
From a security perspective, it seems you're only confirming that whoever is trying to log in has access to the phone number - not a specific SIM card. So right away it doesn't appear to offer any benefits over other MFA options out there, and is certainly less secure than some of them.

The cost per authentication is high, and even if that weren't a concern, I'd certainly never advocate for a solution that I can't even test since my country isn't on the supported list.

Finally, getting locked out of my servers if your endpoint goes down is a hard pass. I can't really imagine anyone seriously considering implementing this type of access control to servers.

While some sections of I-5 are probably within the tsunami zone, I think much of it is beyond it. IIRC (I have not read the article since its original publication) this rule-of-thumb encompasses all the posited earthquake's structural and infrastructural damage at a level calling for FEMA-level assistance.

The remark is clearly only intended to give an impression of the magnitude of the worst-case scenario.

Wow, very interested in an npm compatible Deno! I think that will remove a huge barrier to entry for Deno and could mark a huge shift towards usage in production.

I'm very interested in how packages will manage runtime support in the future. Right now we are seeing an explosion of JavaScript runtimes from Cloudflare Workers to Bun, all with sightly different APIs. I wonder if there will be an easy way to get cross-runtime support without it being much extra work for library authors.

Right now, there has already been conflict with some packages being browser-only and some being node-only. I feel like there needs to be a better solution than the one we have now.

Another key reason to me that open source can be very good quality is when the developer is the key user.

If the developer has strong knowledge of the business while designing a product, it always ends up with better qa as they are writing the right product on first draft.

You hardly get that when you hire someone to do something for you. That is valid in other domain than programming.

You sure? In my household as often as we talk about "Googling it" you will also hear us discuss "Taking a wiz".
The article conclude stating that you should still know more than maps and decide by your own, but it gets against the whole idea of using the apps in the first place.

I do use google maps because it has more information than i do else i wouldn't use it at all.

In particular, i think the story is the perfect case of what's happening when the only metric available to evaluate a route is ETA.

I would say this is a missing feature which i would call `Route difficulty` or similar.

This would be the same concept used in some cooking recipies that have tags stating if the recipie is doable for a beginner.

I think, as part of the `Route difficulty` metrics they could use:

- number of petrol stations and distances

- road slope (more than 30 deg could be challenging)

- traffic (if something happen, how many people will pass by to have support)

Having this additional metrics would make the life so much easier and safer to evaluate the best route to take.
Boston Dynamics AI Institute Targets Basic Research
These are fair points. I suppose I am more optimistic about all the potential ways this tech could augment or enhance human creativity.

Like, isn’t it kind of wild to think that the average person could have access to models that have learned from all art ever made…

I’m also encouraged by the fact that some of the best versions of these systems are open source and run on a commercial GPU.
Curious how your experience has been so far? Where did you come from and why did you decide on this town?
What is actually happening here?

I can think of at least three different ways of performing that kind of authentication (SMS-OTP, leveraging the operator’s metadata about via a HTTP proxy, or actually using the SIM via e.g. EAP-AKA).

Arguably, only the last one would be "using a SIM card", as the title suggests, and neither of them are appealing to me as a user:

Why would I tie authentication to a mobile operator (which aren‘t usually known for stellar security practices) when all new iOS and Android phones support FIDO, both internally and with external authenticators?
Warranties? If you're gonna charge 3 times more for a product, then you should be able to offer a warranty that's much better than that for lower spec equivalents. Yet that rarely seems to happen.

Well, typically in proofs one uses epsilon to represent a vanishingly small number (as in the classic proofs of differentiation.)

It's essentially the same word as "Farang" in Thai, just means anyone foreign or outside the ethnicity. The same thing in Chinese translates to "barbarian". I believe Christians have words like "heathen" and "infidel" and "witch" but most of those carry much more viciousness than "goy". Goyim are nonjews. What people do with that or say about them is on them. To be clear, the antisemitic patt of your post was the inference that we all have some opinions about non-Jews, and that calling them goyim was somehow an inside joke. It is literally just a word for anyone not Jewish. You amplified your suspicion of it with your references here but... It means nothing more. Do some white people call black people N** ? Do some white people sit around a bar talking about Kikes? (they do - and I look and act country enough to have heard it a hundred times). Oh yeah and those kikes call us goys... heh. I swear, I've never seen white pride so fearful as when they start ruminating on that little word. But I promise it's mostly just a phrase meaning not one of us. The barbarian overtones are put on by people who don't understand... in order to say "look! they're talking shit about all of us in their funny Yiddish language!" We're not. But thinking we are is basically a conspiracy theory, and that's what makes it antisemitic. Does that make sense?
Thanks for the pointer. One advantage of the approach I ended up taking is it works for mobile browsing too if you’re logged in to Chrome. Then the open tabs sync and you can programmatically monitor and react to mobile browsing usage.

On Unix, filenames are probably UTF-8. The kernel doesn't require them to be UTF-8, but if you're stuck trying to display a filename, you have to figure out what charset the filename is in, and UTF-8 is almost certainly the answer.

Genuinely curious why you're intentionally misframing things this way. Is it political? Or you just don't like this guy for some reason? He's been robbed (from what I can see a dozen or more times), and in one instance called the police and held the criminal there until they arrived a few minutes later. Everything completely legal, above board, etc.

This is a perfect example of someone telling the truth in such a way to completely mischaracterize what really happened.
Especially in winter/wet conditions.

Yes, maps can blow away or you can simply be in conditions where it's difficult to read them. But there's a lot of casualness in this thread about how "I'll always have my phone" that seems unwise for anything that's not very casual.

>College towns. Pick some states, and go visit towns with colleges in them.

This is pretty much the only answer for the US. Small independent towns have ceased to exist because they have no reason to. But the legacy of land grant universities across the US has left plenty of towns like Gainesville, Ames, Athens, Boulder, Asheville, Chattanooga, Eugene, Laramie, College Station, etc. etc. that are fantastic places to live and have strong real estate markets.
Microsoft's AI for Beginners
- sleep early, wake early, nap at noon. You're still sleeping the same amount of hours but somehow, are more productive and feel better. When I keep to a 10 pm, 5 am routine, I'm in tip top shape mentally.

- 1 hour early morning walk. Just magic.

- cook and make your own food. Cheaper, healthier, and therapeutic to boot. Also a venue to making new friends, as food brings people together.

- a non-activity: get rid of the permanently attached smart device. Bet here is hours spent on a device are far less productive/helpful than equivalent without one.
Some mobile operators can add the phone number or some other user identifier as an HTTP header via a transparent proxy on all requests passing through their network.

This is/was used for micropayments for services and app downloads via phone bill, for example.

It would only work over mobile data, though (i.e. users would need to disable wi-fi for every authentication and it would not work without cell signal at all, unlike SMS-OTP or actual SIM authentication).
It’s actually closer to every 500 years at the latitude Seattle and Portland are at.

The 300 year figure only applies to the southern Oregon and Northern California portion of the fault, and is based on turbidities and controversial.

Still, this is an under-appreciated risk of living in the northwest. There’s plenty of societies living in subduction zones across the planet. But few with as little awareness of their fault.

I remember talking to transplants to Seattle, I’d say there’s a 50/50 percent chance they were aware the region could produce earthquakes.

On the bright side: while we can never predict this for certain, it doesn’t appear there’s enough energy stored in the northern portion of the fault to produce a mega-thrust earthquake right now.

Yale360 seems to cover renewables issues as if the reader already has some very weird ideas about them. Probably a sensible and sadly necessary approach.

But in reality, land use has never been a problem for Solar. It's great that lots of people are working on the issue and improving it. Just as lots of people are working on making them cheaper, or more environmentally friendly or easier to finance or a thousand other metrics.

But none of those were ever fundamental problems with the tech. Their own source of data about the 'problem' puts Ground-based PV at about the same land use as Coal.

They also missed out 'floatovoltaics' (PV on water) and building integrated PV as well as solar PV as a paving solution. Probably all of which are likely to be bigger than ground mount PV, given the trend to bifacial panels.
