Yeah, we specifically built Redux Toolkit around Immer from the very first prototype that I wrote.

I had catalogued _dozens_ of immutable update libs between 2015-2018, and Immer is simply superior to all of them.

Which is why Immer is a non-negotiable part of RTK, and something we specifically tell everyone they should be using with Redux:

- https://redux-toolkit.js.org/usage/immer-reducers

(in fact, I recently got quoted on the top of the Immer docs with a tweet I wrote saying how awesome Immer is :) https://immerjs.github.io/immer/ )

No, I understood your comment. I'm just curious about Steph's opinion.
The 0.1g-precision Bluetooth scales used for coffee are decent. They all seem to share essentially the same firmware, which suggests that they come from the same ODM, and they’re decent — mostly work, only a little flakey.
10x less spent fits my criteria. I have never used google ads because they don't matter for my niche, but that makes sense. My next project might need to go that route, so starting my research now. I would much, much rather find another way to generate traffic.
the pipewire thing has been a debacle on gentoo as well, with it being a coin toss for at least this year whether a full software update will break audio and video or not. And i didn't write a note anywhere except on the gentoo matrix channel. And if you've ever tried to search a busy matrix channel on a single-instance matrix server...

If memory serves, deleting some file from /etc/ fixes the issue.

That's the Apple Way though isn't it? Apple says "Do it exactly how we tell you" and you shouldn't expect anything to work if you deviate from the One True Path that Apple has laid out for you. "Think Different, Do As You're Told"
> The energy source itself presents issues. If you need a $50 billion fusion reactor that takes 20 years to build and a thousand people to maintain then that's a problem to bootstrap on Mars.

ITER is a research facility, not a practical reactor. We have new (relatively) high temperature superconductors that are much better than what was state of the art when ITER was originally designed, meaning we ought to be able to build much smaller and cheaper reactors going forward once the basic technology is worked out. The MIT ARC and SPARC reactors are an example.

> If you're living underground anyway, why are you living on Mars instead of the Moon?

Mars has air that be used to manufacture rocket fuel. It has closer to Earth-standard gravity. The temperature swings are less dramatic. Water is more abundant. It's closer to the asteroid belt, which means it functions as the local gas station and resupply depot for asteroid mining. It has close to an Earth-normal day/night cycle. Basically, it's a much more hospitable environment for humans than the moon. The main thing the moon has going for it is that it's far quicker and easier to get there from Earth.
You can create a lazy pressure release by poking a needle hole in the bag and putting a bit of sellotape over it.
This is a very odd take and aggressive towards artists in a way that makes little sense.

First, You’re arguing that rational labor input-output, the harder the better, and the resulting inputs it creates into a system, is the highest ideal or something. You’re missing that Art and various abstractions, to include the social sciences have played a major role in shaping history and our self identities for all of human existence (Homer, anyone?). When this missing started occurring is right around the ‘06 tech boom that put engineering and input output above all else, and by extension destroyed out the protected spaces artists could function in. Coincidently, that’s right around the time the world started to lose its mind by finding meaning making via their iPhones. This engineering-centric dismissal of everything that can’t be quantified is the cause of so many social issues. Your view was also directly present in the Soviet Union, fwiw.

I’m not sure what artist insulted you or wherever this take comes form, but you’re really missing some key points of why Art and the resulting high minded artists have existed since the cavemen.

Shit, all those queer black women who have been telling me that intersectionality is important because they experience unique struggles because they are at the intersection of multiple sets of traits have been doing so because it's popular with white folks?

Intersectionality is the idea that multiple identities intersect, and like the intersection in a Venn diagram, the overlap is a unique zone.

I think you’d be hard pressed to find a group of people with minimal education in art who couldn’t reliably pice out the AI generated images. You might be able to trick them with abstract images or things intended to look like computer generated art that doesn’t have a complex or human subject matter.

Frankly humans and animals generated by these things look like blurry trash or are wrong on details in a way a human wouldn’t be, even intentionally. I’ve yet to see examples that don’t look kind of shitty.

Why does anyone care what technology AirBnB uses for their mobile apps or websites?

AirBnB is an incredibly successful company because of their marketing, ability to scale, and the fact they offered the right thing at the right time.

Their website however, is slow and clunky. Their apps are slow and clunky.

What about that side of their company is worth emulating?
At a very high number of pages, LIMIT / OFFSET becomes extremely slow, even when using optimization techniques like this (although the times you're quoting are for unoptimized queries). If you routinely need to go that deep through a paginated list, you probably want to look into other techniques.
Most vector search research teams are a lot smaller than you suggest, and haven't been around that long (e.g. the FAISS paper was published in 2017).

From public info, you can see they have at least one researcher working there. It's believable to me that they could have some new innovations, especially since the product space they're focusing on is different from other teams working on vector search. State-of-the-art for a specific set of constraints is still state-of-the-art.

However, considering how much of their edu-marketing content is posted to HN, it would be great if they could share more details about the internals of their index with the community. One of the great things about vector search is how many techniques are open sourced or documented in papers :).

Disclaimer: I work on vector search at a different company
I think this is kinda missing the point: that what might look "incorrect" in one version of English is perfectly common and acceptable, maybe even "correct", in another. There is no one universal definition of "correct English". There is no one single English, even more so than in languages that at least have regulatory agencies (language academies).

Each English-speaking region comes up with their own rules, perhaps initially descended from a group of British or American emigrants, but evolving over time to form their own variants. It happened from the slave trade, it happened from the age of sail, it happened in Hawaii, in the American South, in the American West, in the Philippines, in India, in South Africa... they all speak subtly different variants, with different rules.

There is no universally correct use of English. There are various rules documented in various dictionaries and grammar/style guides, and reinforced by teachers and higher-class people of various societies, but those are descriptive, after-the-fact illustrations that follow the evolving language, not the other way around.

It's one thing to say that a child's usage of language is incorrect because they haven't learned it yet, within a certain cultural context. It's another thing entirely to presume that your region's usage of English is the only "correct" one. There's no such thing.

Examples (American vs British):

"Data is" vs "data are"

"Do you have a car?" vs "Have you got a car?"

"I already saw that film" vs "I've already seen that film"
etc.

color vs colour, trunk vs boot, etc. more examples here: https://www.thoughtco.com/differences-between-american-and-b...

For the blog title in question (which isn't an American vs British difference, to be clear, but possibly an Indian English construction -- not sure), the sentence is perfectly clear, with or without the "did". There isn't some weird ambiguity about it, especially in the context of a tech blog. I agree that it sounds strange to American/British ears, but it's not really "incorrect", it's just a regional stylistic difference -- or so we surmise. Give it 50 years' worth of population growth and migrations, and that construction might very well become the more common one, leaving the American and British versions sounding quaint and foreign.

Now, maybe a related question is whether the writer should've written in the American style, kinda like how many foreign English singers will emulate an American accent. In that case it's not a question of correctness anymore, but of adapting your communications for a cross-cultural context and targeting a specific group of English users and their traditions. I'm not arguing that the author should or should not have done that, just that their choice wasn't "incorrect". Just different from what we're used to.
I went from Python to Go to Rust. Go plays up this fantasy of types helping you catch bugs, buts it’s really C with lipstick. There’s no enums, no exhaustive matching of any kinds, there’s null to worry about everywhere, and every utility function has to be painfully written out for each type (maybe that’s starting to change now with Go having basic support for generics).
Despite the challenges in knowing calories in, much less calories out, agreed, just lowering your intake, and adjusting based on the outcome works, and is the only way to do sustainably do it. I was just challenging the assumption that calories out is fixed. In my case, I'm currently at a calorie deficit and losing weight (at 195, starting at 220), and at one point, I was at (or slightly below) 1000 calories a day for a month and did not lose a pound. (It was physically and emotionally miserable.) I went up to ~1500/day (and 2000 on gym days), and have lost 1.5 lbs/wk or so for months now. I don't think I "ruined" my metabolism, nad don't know if that was starvation mode or not, but I am convinced there's a calories "in" range in which your body will try its best to match calories "out", if only temporarily, and that I was in that range for a while.
You're also not able to visibly broadcast that you're "doing parenting right" to all the other rich parents when you drop your crotch-fruit off at summer camp and that's the key feature that a hell of a lot of people are buying for.

I think RHNA is an important measure to make sure communities like Atherton aren't allowed to externalize the cost of their lifestyle onto the rest of the Bay, but I think a land value tax coupled with dramatically liberalized zoning laws would be an even better solution.

That way, people who "don't want to see their community change" would be free to buy up land and pay the opportunity cost of not developing it. Society could use that revenue to either invest in the welfare state, or offset taxes for the rest of us.

And other cars don't support Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Twitch, and arcade games while in Park, which are great when waiting for something, as well as Spotify, TuneIn, etc., so I guess we're even? I'd rather have a bunch of competing services rather than just a generic UI from one vendor that's always pushing service upgrade packages like Apple One.

I suspect CarPlay and Android Auto come with strings attached from Apple (must fall in line with the Apple walled garden rules) and Google (must track users on behalf of Google) so, no big loss.
I've been on YouTube since the beginning. In the early days I uploaded a short clip from a favorite movie but YouTube removed it. A bunch of other people downloaded it and kept re-uploading it until YouTube finally gave up. I guess their new tact is tougher. They threaten to delete your account now.
To me it sounds like this:

"Sam enjoys the paper?" could have emphasis on "Sam" and sound fine - it is asking if it is Sam or someone else who enjoys the paper.

"Sam enjoys the paper?" could have emphasis on "enjoys" and sounds fine - it is asking if Sam enjoys the paper or feels some other way.

"Sam enjoys the paper?" could have emphasis on "paper" and sounds fine - it is asking if Sam enjoys the paper or something else.

And "Does Sam enjoy the paper?" sounds fine too - it is asking a more specific yes/no question.
You probably can't update as much as you can with Arch, but any reasonable modern linux distro these days allows the user to have a very stable core and very up to date user space with snaps, flatpaks and AppImages.

I was jealous of windows because of exactly this. No longer now. It could still be better, e.g.: .AppImages could automatically be opened by something that mimics an installation wizard with checks for signatures, permissions, installations, periodic updates... it would be much more user-friendly than expecting the user to give "executable rights/flags" to a file that was just downloaded. Nevertheless, it broke the "good enough" barrier for me.

Coming from a time that "just released" software required compilation from source and sometimes, compilation of its dependencies which sometimes could simply break the system or worse: add lots of repos that could suddenly disappear or break your package manager in a way that it was simpler to just reinstall your system from scratch than trying to fix it; current situation is much much better. It is good to have a mature and stable distro that one can expect will be maintained for years with software that was released just yesterday.
Oh yeah, REST APIs are one of Go’s sweet spots. I have yet to find a better language for APIs and CLIs
It's more the density that people object to, not more people, or more housing. It's when there's an area in the denominator. More density means more cars, more air pollution, more traffic, more noise. More accidents, more time searching for parking and standing in lines. It may not add up to ruin, but it's objectively worse.
That's a good question, I don't know enough to answer.

I suppose one way to mitigate the risk is to use the same kind of "emergency escape" systems that humans use during rocket launches. I.e. if the rocket fails to achieve orbit, a capsule is ejected and floats down on parachutes. I wonder if that sort of thing is already done with RTG launches?
I just finished a batch that's been fermenting for 6 months. I make mine with Turmeric, salt and chili. I finished with vinegar to stop the ferment and add some more tanginess. Made about 24 bottles.

Canonical has been cuddling up to Microsoft for years. With the WSL collaboration (I know there's other distros but Ubuntu is the one in all the marketing buzz).

Tbh I'm surprised they haven't been acquired by Microsoft yet. They're clearly aiming straight for it.

I probably would do the same if I were them, too.
> DALLE is a continuation of Photoshop. Compilers didn't put programmers out of business, it just moved them one layer up.

It moves artists so far "up the stack" that being an artist becomes redundant.

If C-level execs could just ask their computer to generate the exact website they wanted, there would be a lot less web devs out there.

Tools allow _skilled professionals_ to do their job better. The existence of GCC doesn't make the average Joe a programmer; it makes programmers more productive.

DALLE allows any schmuck with zero artistic talent to generate their own art. It obviates the need for artists.

DALLE is to artists what self-driving cars are to truckers.
I think this is a very valid point. The car cannot detect that you are receiving sun rays through the windows. Making you feel much hotter than the ambiant air.

Sometimes you need to adjust the vent to blow in your face more directly, or set the climate control to cool the air further to offset the inconvenience.
What about the sulfuric acid in the atmosphere of Venus? Can we transform that away, too?
I think he’s saying that any sort of network analysis done by someone that doesn’t understand basics of TCP is kinda suspect and may be more prone to errors in the analysis methodology or interpretation of results.

I tend to agree. My only takeaway after seeing that was “if I ever need a 100% leak free tunnel on iOS, validate it”. I certainly won’t be taking any of this at face value without replicating it.
Popular Delusions and the Ecological Crisis
Yes, they wouldn't accept it because my credit was poor. I told them I could cut a check or go to the bank and get the cash for a whole year but they didn't want it because my FICA was in the crapper (thanks former roommates!).
Perhaps the reason for limited reaction to the ecological crisis is due to popular delusions and cognitive biases.
I gave up on Fusion360 when it told me that the STL exporter wouldn't work without a cloud connection. The app itself works well enough offline, so this seems like a bizarre omission. Surprisingly there are places in the world with 3D printers, but poor to no internet access. In the past Autodesk's servers have also crashed and people have been unable to export models that weren't previously online.
I'm in Providence and the scooters are everywhere, still.
> do Art to create meaning and participate in the meaning making process

is just

> for external signaling and the sort of implied “hey look at me” desire

in a different light. You cannot participate in the meaning making process without signalling to other meaning makers, attracting their attention, and influencing their subsequent signalling. If you don't signal, then you haven't participated because you just didn't try. And if you don't attract attention, then you haven't participated because you had no effect on the proceedings.

This is not to say that it's your interpretation versus their interpretation. It's to say it's both at the same time.
refrigerators don't really use much power while running. As a joke-y test i ran my refrigerator off of my truck via an inverter connected to the battery terminals and 3 50' extension cords. I think a fridge draws less than a decent GPU while running. You do, however, need a decent inverter to start the compressor running in the fridge, though.

Also, a deep freeze that is the top loading style is best for preventing spoilage, especially if you keep all the available space full of bags or bottles of water.

I also have a makeshift "whole home" backup generator, 11.5kW/9.5kW peak on gas/propane, but only because i have a well, and the pump draws something like 4.5kW when running. The extra headroom allows me to run my 5 ton HVAC and have running water and lights and everything.
Every one of the MidJourney images featured in this article is obviously derived from averaging. The model is trained to correlate the average look of this or that with whatever keywords. For example, the "artist at work" – okay from afar with no real examination/consideration, it looks like something, kind of. As soon as you actually begin to look at it, it becomes glaringly uninspired. Hmm, what's he working on there...is that a hand? what even is going on in front of the artist? How about the front and center desk – nothing is actually definitive, I can't recognize a single thing on that desk! Etc etc, and similar observations can be made about all of the other images.

Not that art should necessarily be a clear depiction of real things, far from that. Good art (read: art I feel a connection with and inspired by) is the presentation of a SUBJECTIVE POINT OF VIEW. In these images, all I see is the averaging of many points of view (the actual artworks the model was trained on, I presume), resulting in no point of view at all.

This technology will take jobs like designing 3-star hotel lobby wallpaper, not the places of human artists. Without a human point of view, "art" like this is flavorless jello.

To save others the click: that plane never reached super sonic.

What makes the turboprop itself supersonic is the blades are traveling super sonic. Normal turboprops are limited by keeping their blade tips below super sonic to prevent booms and vibration. It is not special to go super sonic at the blade tips, this experimental plane only served to confirm that.

So it is correct to say no turboprop plane has ever gone super sonic and the idea that boom is turboprop powered is wrong on its face.
> Makes me wonder if there's a market for the equivalent of health food where we go back to social media and deliberately avoid "recommendation media" (which may be the most important two words in the entire post).

I think there's definitely a product in there for people who want a tool to help manage their attention, one they can intentionally shape.

But that product cannot be primarily ad-supported, since the fundamental purpose of ad-supported tech is to command (and sell) attention. Users would need to be customers, not the product, which means they would need to be willing to pay. And since attention is power, anyone producing this would either have to be past motivation for more power, or principled about not abusing the potential in abusing an attention management tool.

I'm sure the userbase and builders who can make this happen exist, but they are smaller. The incentives against it are powerful currents. Most of us will choose the opaque cost of selling our attention and behavioral trail over the transparent cost of our currency. Most of us are not past motivation for more power.
