And this is why you use spike solutions, to explore the problem space without the constraints of TDD.

But spikes are written to be thrown away. You never put them into production. Production code is always written against some preexisting test, otherwise it is by definition broken.
One risk comes from the long lead times of chip design and production. They are committing to a design and process and hoping that production can occur on time and in the right volume to meet there needs. That is not a certainty and a delay could be very expensive since product releases are tied to the new chips.
I can also argue that is is almost impossible to show code to you for very simple reason: showing couple of files won't make any difference for you anyway and you can't just transfer your codebase to a person. The only thing you can do is to sit candidate to a laptop with the codebase for couple of hours, but I doubt anyone will go that far.
There is also risk that sufficient consumers do not want to buy Apple’s products at a sufficient price premium to offset the price premium that Apple paid to TSMC.
> these nameless boards were made during the night shift at a legit factory, but a rogue actor paid extra to have something bad baked in.

This happens everywhere. Look at various devices that are inserted in routers, CPU and microcode of Western equipment. A mobile modem is a black box, what's inside it? What are over-the-air capabilities built in the SIM card of your phone? This exists since decades.

More-so I worked (now retired) in Telecom industry and for two years I was responsible of lawful interception in (French) Britanny. I was horrified to learn that French police was listening to people conversations without asking for any authorization by a judge (kinda unlawful interception).

One also can wonder why IEEE 802.11 security is so bad and why so many good proposals have been repulsed under weird reasons (I attended IEEE 802.11 meetings for two years).

Even standards implicitly make room for (legit) lawful interception:

That wouldn't capture the fact that there are fundamental physical barriers being run into. "Smallest feature size" is a perfectly adequate metric until things get complicated. Replacing an insufficient simple metric with a different one insufficient metric isn't the right solution imo.

It is actually very informative, I was very surprised to learn that one could get fully assembled prototypes for a few hundred bucks.

I didn’t say it was great, but if I had to be stuck under vicious authoritarian rule, I’d rather one that will tolerate my culture and religion as long as my loyalty is there, which is not what China seems to be doing.

Shit the Mongols themselves ruled over the Uyghurs (though admittedly I’m not quite sure whether medieval Uyghurs and modern Uyghurs are the same people) and many were in high ranking court positions, not re-education camps.

Of all of the terrible UI elements that have become fashionable, this is probably the one I hate the most.
Purely in regards to the initial install of the OS. I wound up having to go outside the Arch install wiki to other sources to figure out what to do. It seemed written for someone who already had a pretty thorough understanding of setting up partitions and file systems.
That level of jaywalking enforcement sounds dystopian, no thank you.
> So, what is the cure? Honestly, it never really goes away. Sorry, but that's the truth.

I chose to ignore this because author is an imposter psychologist.

The hidden assumption in all these self help blogs is that there are no imposters. So, if you feeling like an imposter, its actually just mean people on twitter or stackoverflow.

Where are the, "i actually was an imposter and quit and now i'm happy doing something where i'm competent." those people exist.

imposter syndrome is just cope for the insecure.
Seconding this. At the top end of the range, about $150 / each if you buy 15 of them at a reputable factory. Half of that is components, a tenth is the PCB, rest is assembly.

If you are going to hand-assemble a macropad or something, you end up paying more in shipping than you pay for a set of 5 PCBs.

Also, most factories allow you to calculate the price on their website! Look for PCBway, Elecrow, JLCPCB, OSH Park, or a dozen others.
Not sure if troll or not but as you might know, there are different levels to Christianity. I'm not the kind of person to say all paths leads to Rome but I do believe that there are variables to a Christian life and every single person's journey will be different.
What's interesting to me is that I actually like the old interface better than the current one. But the part that matters, the actual email list, has barely changed in 20 years. This is the place where I feel they need to modernize most. Thunderbird needs a robust, clean conversation view, like GMail or macOS Mail.app (That app is actually one of the main reasons I use a Mac right now. If there was an on par OSS version I would probably use Linux.)

Also, I miss proper Outlook (Office365/Exchange) integration. I hate it, but if you use it at work it has to work. There is an integration, but it is a paid plugin.

That said, I really hope Thunderbird succeeds and becomes relevant again. If you have a certain amount of mail, a real mail client is just so much better than webmail, and it is great to have an OSS version.
It looks really nice, but it's not for me — I won't be able to use any non-100% keyboard 100% comfortably due to my stupid habits that refuse to change — and that's fine.

The OP did an extremely impressive job, and that's what matters in the end. I can totally see them selling a lot of these.
jeez, well defined spec? what a weird concept. Instead, we took a complete 180 and all we get are weekly sprints. just start coding, don't spend time understanding your problem. what a terrible concept.
"enforce beliefs"? No. Proprietary software simply isn't part of the project and discussing stuff that are besides the project goals on project channels is not welcome.

You don't have to belief anything to use Guix or participate in the community. It's an odd sense of entitlement to demand that others accept, accommodate, and welcome your ideology in dealings with you.

I also find it strange that you ascribe "this isn't for you" (a comment made here by strangers) to the project. No wonder then that you interpret entirely harmless community guidelines as if someone told you "to go fuck [your]self".
According to some reports[1], Apple may indeed produce M2 chips on the 3nm line.

Ask HN: As a lead, are u responsible to drive your members to make an impact?
I am leading a team of engineers. What I observed is that most are not motivated to make improvement and mostly instructions taker. How do I drive them to take initiative to improve things rather than waiting for instructions
Their initial installation and setup documentation was what I found difficult. Having very little experience setting up boot partitions and file systems at the time, the instructions were quite vague. I wound up having to go outside the Arch install wiki in order to figure out what to do.
Same could be said for Access
> The printer space ripe for distruption. [...] I'd like to see a printer that isn't agressively marketing toner to me or at least offers it at a fair price.

Won't happen. If it does happen, they won't succeed.

The reason being that consumers are short-sighted and price sensitive. If they see two printers with identical features and specs, but one is $100 and the other is $200, they'll buy the $100 one before looking and noticing that the $100 printer requires $75 ink cartridges while the $200 printer can take $25 cartridges.

So printer manufacturers have to sell the hardware at as low a price as possible to compete with other manufacturers and they make up the difference in ink/toner. If someone tried to do what you're asking, they'd have to have a higher price to be profitable and wouldn't make any sales.

Not just that. China claims a large part of the international sea by drawing a bullsh*t line on the map, bullies other countries in the area: Japan, Philippine, Viet Name, Indonesia, Brunei, ...
The entire human civilization isn’t ruled by a single group/government, so it isn’t outlandish to compare different nations or nation-blocs.

But you do point to an interesting problem and that is one of humans’ impact to earth (and hence our habitat). Whether humans can adjust course without a single government coming up with rules and regulations remains to be seen.
Agree, I would love to see CRDT (or related) multiplayer resolution as that's a big time sink for a lot of new collaboration product ideas around dashboards, documents, spreadsheets, online games, mindmaps, and flows (like figma).
I'm probably not the only one who thought this was about Supaplex https://supaplex.me/ - .a popular extended boulderdash clone - because of the term 'Multiplayer' before clicking the link.
For those who didn't know, the dos game is now freeware and there is a reverse engineered open source multi-platform port. There is no multiplayer mod, yet.
Too bad it can't stop the cars from running over small children. All that gpu power wasted.
Sounds like fun. Disregard my comment then.
My $5 bargain bin webcam can take pictures and video at 24hz.

My $200 pinephone can, on a good day, do 0.5hz. I dunno, but I expected more.
Yeah this actually confused me a bit - at first I thought "multiplayer" meant CRDT, but now I'm not sure. I got really excited there for a bit, lol.
If It's ZMK, does this mean I could flash in a new configuration to Dvorak? (I know, Dvorak is a bad habit. I'm trying to quit. Really.)

One bit that I find helpful is that the keycaps are all the same height/angle so that I can rearrange them... hopefully..
I think both Martijn and Drew have their hearts in the right place, but I strongly feel a giant blogroll of criticism posts headlining HN for three days is just going to kill the mobile FOSS ecosystem (or leave it only to Librem, which prices out most folks). And the complaint can't be separated from the fact that... people just don't like that Manjaro is the selected "default". Because a default was and is sorely needed, and of course, now that there is one, people have opinions on it.
Bookmarked! That's great and something more folks should be aware of.

I started making my own hiking gear years ago and it has been fun passion of mine. Cost aside, the biggest benefit is developing a comfort in modifying and fixing existing gear and eventually learning to make it look good. I started with the rayway quilt for a prairie wintercamping overbag but have since taken a UL DIY tarp tent + bug shelter, various quilts/bags, ponchos, gaiters, and various bags on longer back country trips. I've replaced a fly for an old but durable tent and adjusted the skin of a folding kayak (was not as happy with the cosmetic result on that one). It's a bit addictive. Zippers are hard to get right but once you've done this it's easy to go to scrubs or dresses. My latest purchase is a speedy stitcher awl for other projects.

If you are into this the other big category to try out is DIY dehydrated meal prep. Last weeklong trip I intentionally overpacked food to share and split and everyone wanted some of my food after a couple days on that mountain house (relative) crap. It ends up being way cheaper, tastier, and probably healthier. Leading up to a trip I just cook extra and try to be more vegeterian for dinner. Those portions of rice, bean/lentil dishes, vegeterian curries all get thrown onto some parchment paper in a rack (previously spiral) dehydrator, ziplocked, and then frozen until the trip. Switch it up with different seasoning and sides, e.g. rehydrate a side of sauerkraut, pickled beets, or some jerkey. Just word to the wise chopped potatos rehydrate slowly & poorly: easier to buy those cartoons of shredded dehydrated potato from costco. I'll buy their cooked canned chicken to dehydrate too. Also dehydrated 1/2cm wide banana slices (no soaking/additives) are my favourite snack now.
Maybe the process method in place and added a --less-secure-turbo-threaded-mode option.
Thank you very much. Current industrial vision solutions like Halcon or Cognex focus on quality control i.e they inspect products for defects while we focus on process control where we look for anomalies in the process itself i.e in the material flow, material handling etc.

Never really thought about it. Feels kind of "leaky", even if necessary.
An odd take by the GP, as the usual version of OOP (I assume “traditional OOP” doesn’t mean Smalltalk, but the class-based horror used in Python or Java) is an awkwardly constrained, special case of multiple dispatch where we can only dispatch on the first argument.
Probably to the benefit of sandwich shops just on the other side of customs or some such.

It would be a lot simpler if anti-competitive behaviour only encompassed clearly immoral and unfair behaviour, but it tends to be more nuanced than that. There's no simple rule and a court would probably have to spend a long time concidering such a case.

The essential facilities doctrine might apply (the question isn't whether competitors are literally forbidden from the latest chips, it's whether they're "practically or reasonably" unable to access the latest chips, and all evidence suggests that's currently the case). Possibly it's the competitors own fault for refusing to pay the entirely reasonable price TSMC is insisting on, and perhaps Apple's contract with TSMC actually has carefully written clauses to ensure others could practically gain access without having to spend enormous amounts of money, but which nobody has been willing to use for their own reasons, but it certainly seems possible that the contracts effectively ensure Apple have sole access to the latest hardware, which would line up neatly with the apparent scenario we're in - that Apple currently has sole access to the latest hardware.

That's not to say it's a slam dunk case either. I wouldn't care to guess either way.
XDP is a lot of stuff, but I think I have someone around using af_xdp to bypass the kernel network stack and for some (and the filtering and decision of which streams, is done through some ebpf iirc) packets deliver them directly into userland buffer-queues? DPDK also has an AF_XDP backend to bridge your classical DPDK app and AF_XDP sockets.
Not that I want to eat them but you could irradiate the insects to kill anything like they do with spices.
It may exist but at that price tag only large companies with legacy applications will keep using it.
Ask HN: Only person assigned to certain task, and I'm alone and tired
I've been tasked with creating marketing videos for my B2C corp on YouTube, since

- I'm the only one who knows how to make videos

- No one else is interested

The videos include content like:

- How-tos

- Comedy sketches

- Interviews with biz partners

Here are the issues I face:

- Alone

This assignment placed me in a single-person department (myself only), and I've been churning out videos ever since. However, since there's no one to bounce around ideas with (or get inspired by), I find myself alone in a tedium.

Working alone puts me in a creative rut, so I've been asking for new ideas from my colleagues, but they don't contribute. They still enjoy watching my new video whenever it comes out. Their reaction makes me both happy and leeched.

- No collaborators when needed

Furthermore, I produce comedy sketches at the request of my boss, who likes SNL and thinks funny content going viral will be good PR.

But he won't hire actors. He insists on having me find coworkers willing to act in sketches. However, almost no one wants to appear. They even respond in a condemning tone for suggesting that they appear in a video.

One time, I asked one of my colleague to appear. I ended up getting yelled up by the person sitting next to her.

- Financing on my own

Additionally, my boss complains about how producing live-action videos takes time and money. However, it's frankly difficult to make videos without buying a memory card to record footage on camera. I end up spending some of my personal money to get equipments without dealing with complaints.

- Cancellation of completed deliverable

Worst of all, one of my completed deliverables got cancelled before uploading to YouTube. (Think of it like "Batgirl" with Warner Bros.) After one of my coworkers appeared, she reverted her decision and withdrew her permission after editing was finished. It was a perfectly fine sketch that my friends outside work had fun watching.

---

I need to produce more videos, but I don't feel inspired anymore. I keep staring at my blank script, resenting that no one is helping me. HNers, what can I do to get out of this rut?
Sure it does for everyone that isn't an US citizen.

Playing Yoda clever doesn't you make.
I noticed that the audio control keys (back, play/pause, skip) and mute/unmute keys use different F keys on this keyboard (F9-F12) than they are on my keychron, external mac keyboards, and internal mac keyboard (F7-F10).

This keyboard also lacks volume up/down controls.

I wonder why? I understand the lack of backlight control (I don't think this keyboard has a backlight?) and leaving out mission control and expose since those keys have changed every few years in macOS. But volume control is a strange one to omit. Maybe that's what the "rotary encoder" does? This webpage does not make the purpose of the rotary clear, unfortunately.

Moreover, it's strange to use different function keys for these functions for... no apparent reason. Especially if you're not going to put any primary function on F3-F8, why not stay consistent for muscle memory reasons?

I'm also curious if this keyboard HAS to use bluetooth, or if it's capable of wired control via the usb-c cable like my keychron. I hate bluetooth lag, so that's a dealbreaker for me. This webpage should clarify.

This keyboard looks pretty nice, otherwise. As someone who doesn't care to ever use page up/page down/home/end keys, I'll definitely check it out if something ever happens to my K2.

Quoting from the website of their German embassy (https://www.de.emb-japan.go.jp/itpr_ja/konsular_Informatione...):

General notice:

For entry measures, countries of entry are divided into 3 categories (blue, yellow and red). The entry modalities and visa regulations are then based on the colours.

Blue = Tourism allowed with visa

Yellow/ Red = Tourism not allowed

The categories are reviewed at regular intervals and countries can be reassigned to a different category in the event of a new review, which means that relaxations can be withdrawn again if necessary.

Germany is currently Category Blue.

NOTE!

Visas can only be applied for if a travel agency/travel company based in Japan acts as guarantor and registers with the Japanese Ministry of Health (see below).

At the moment, an application is only possible for package/group tours organized by a travel agency based in Japan as well as with continuous group guidance on site without individually plannable days as well as only with a locally resident tour guide. Individual tourism is not possible.
My beef with TDD is most every resource merely parrots the steps (red,green,..). No one teaches it well from what I have found. Nor am I convinced it’s easy to teach. I have picked up what I can by watching (what I believe) good TDD practitioners.

I have a feeling this is where TDD loses out the most

Building the tech that removes the need for underpaid underage labor seems a great step forward for humanity, yet I can't help but doubt it would improve the life of said labor. I'm sure they will be exploited in new awful ways.

How did we build a society where "your tedious labor is now performed by robots" is generally bad news?

Not OP but their message resonates: the reason to do that regimen is to maximize the amount of healthy living. And to do so being comfortable spending money there that might not seem like a sure thing (but the payoff would be worth it).
Agreed that this is very seldom over here. But it's still the reason why I'm willing to shop that often online. It is _also_ the reason why online retailers are so "customer friendly". If I have a complaint with Amazon or Ebay I tell them I have a problem and I just expect them to sort it in my favour.

If you buy stuff from e.g. C&A or H&M (two clothing chains here) and pay by invoice (which is basically always a wire transfer you initialise), then there is always much more hassle. My ex-girlfriend had to have 3-letter discussion with them that they had to find the stuff she didn't want in their warehouse. If she'd just paid via credit card, this discussion wouldn't have lasted that long, because we could have had the bank take care of it. And I'm reasonably certain that ability influence their CS department's behaviour

I think they really screwed up after Delphi 7, when they did the horrible Delphi.NET.

Also, they should have had some better pricing, something like:
Personal use: Free.
Commercial use: Free until you are making $x a year, like Unity I think, and then different prices.

Note: I might remember wrong, as this was so long ago. I started with Delphi 1.0!

I'm so glad to see a low-profile mechanical. They feel like they're so rare in the MK community. The design of the keyboard itself looks beautiful. The material and component choice looks great as well!

A couple minor things regarding the website:

* It's super zoomed in for some reason/spacing could use some work

* The "about" page is pretty barren when the text is shrunk to a more reasonable size (50%)
