Meanwhile, I've never had a socket failure, and I've upgraded the RAM on the 2012 mac I am using 2x now over its life (once to get to 8gb, a second time when users reported the computer could take 16gb despite what apple says). If I had soldered ram then I would be saddled with 4gb ram total and this computer would not be easily running mojave and allowing me to post this comment with 3 dozen tabs open in the background.
Maybe a step back is in order.

We can both agree that, clearly, we don't know whether or not OP has ADHD. They merely listed some issues around focus/motivation.

OP mentioned that the onset of this coincided with access to online video games & social media, which are distracting by nature, and that they are much better on days when they've had good sleep.

Yet somehow it's putting the cart before the horse, to suggest that lifestyle might be a large factor, when OP listed lifestyle as a factor?

Yet it's not putting the cart before the horse to jump to seeking an ADHD diagnosis? And it is over-diagnosed, and stimulants are overprescribed. I'm sure you'll disagree, but it's true. Of course stimulants will work, it's basically just speed. You can give them to anyone and they'll feel great. There's a reason overachieving students buy them off the street for exams.

And I must now step back from HN today as, surprise surprise, I'm distracted by it!
No, Electron cannot reuse Chromium libraries. Every Electron app bundles and loads its own copy of Chromium; it’s bound to that specific version and can’t share it with any other app. Also, Chrome isn’t Chromium; it may be compiled from the same code, but that doesn’t allow the OS to substitute one for the other.

Unprofitable money laundering operations collapse from the costs of meeting demand at scales large enough to offend the United States government, and so require no special prosecution or censure in order to fail. Cryptocoin laundering is highly desired by those that would launder currency, and so is not exempt from this outcome.
Your first point is a good one, these ships base at locations specifically designed for transferring heavy loads. Adding battery swapping to the to-do list at container ports does not seem unreasonable at all.

To your second point, let it always be remembered that the first electric busses, from the early 20th century, used a battery swap system. It can be done, especially on industrial vehicles. Personally I don’t understand why it isn’t being done today for electrified bus networks.

The Intel Xeon comes in desktop compatible versions. Up to Coffee Lake(8000 in desktop numbers) they were sold under the Xeon E3 brand, E5 is the aforementioned the incompatible server chip. Comet Lake had them rebranded to the Xeon W and it does become slightly more confusing, but you can definitely still buy Xeon chips that run on the last desktop socket: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Lake#Workstation_proces...

Check your motherboard's CPU support and run the model number through Intel Ark to make sure it's only has 2 "Max # of Memory Channels".
I wouldn't be surprised. It was common back then to hear on forums to never waste money speccing up the ram on macs, since you can upgrade it yourself for half the price with sticks from crucial. It was always a $200 upgrade even when you were just getting another 4gb of DDR3.

If you are in USA like me, then you are in luck. Book an appointment with the nearest psychologist and get yourselves tested. Pretty sure they will diagnose you with something if not ADHD - after all every natural function of the body is a disease in America which requires pumping yourselves with medications.
This is very cool. Only if i could pin my todolist on desktop.
https://www.fleetzero.com/ is proposing to build electric ships and, yes, swap batteries. They build the batteries in the form factor of a shipping container, so existing port infrastructure can be used to perform the swap.

TRUE and FALSE are the issue here. No such thing. Everything is a belief, or a concept.

There is a lot that goes into 2 + 2 = 4. Sounds simple right? But the concepts of counting, addition, symbols to represent numbers, and what those number represent in the real.

2 is a generalization and abstraction for 2 things, but what those things are require our brain to interpret.

This might be simply as converting light hitting the eyes into a mental model. For example: The earplugs. Those earplugs don't really exist in any absolute terms. They are a piece of foam. So you might say you have 3 earplugs, and a flotation device for an insect. But ... you might also say it is a gazillion atoms.

My religion is "I don't know".

Physics in the early 20th century is fascinating because by this point physicists had pushed classical mechanics right to the limit of where classical physics could go and were starting to grapple with the contradictions that popped up when they went any further.

One of the big problems at the time was the problem of the self-force of electric fields and the structure of the electron. In classical mechanics we approximate an electron as a point charge --- an infinitesimally small source of electric charge. This works for a lot of practical problems, but by the 20th century it was known that this couldn't be the real story because if you integrate up the energy in the electric field around a point source you find that it's infinite! And with Einstein's discovery of relativity, that meant that it would be infinitely massive.

To avoid this infinity physicists generally assumed that the electron had to have some finite radius. (Estimates of this size are how we get the notion of the "classical radius of the electron.") But now there was a new problem. If you assume that the electron is a little sphere packed with charge, what keeps it together? The self-repulsion from the electric field will try to make it explode apart. That means there has to be a new force acting like rubber bands to hold the thing together.

To make matters worse, if you accelerate an electron, the electromagnetic waves generated by one part of the electron will act on the other part. This will introduce new forces. Moreover, when the electron radiates an electromagnetic wave, that wave will in turn impart a force to the electron, resulting in a "self-force." Calculating these self-forces and internal stresses occupied many of the brightest physicists of the early 1900s, including Poincaré. But the results they got were paradoxical. They imply that due to its self-force an electron can spontaneously accelerate exponentially --- or, even worse, act with retrocausality and start moving before you even touch it!

In the end these problems were "resolved" because the classical picture doesn't hold on these small length scales --- you need a quantum mechanical description. But interestingly, the fundamental problems that those physicists were grappling with didn't exactly disappear in the quantum picture, they just got transmuted into new problems in quantum electrodynamics. The problem of the diverging energy of an electric field around a point source has a mirror in the issue around renormalization in QFT.

To your first two questions, the Right Of First Refusal[0] has a long history of being a financial instrument for just about anything. I see no reason why this would be something different.

The current system, to me, has just as much entitlement, just from the other side. Why should it be some unrelated party that benefits from the lender's misfortunes. The lending is between two parties, and it seems reasonable to keep it that way unless both parties agree not to.

Why can't they repair older computers? Car dealers do. You just might wait longer for parts. Apple should do this so users always get decent parts. Imagine how nice it would be if you did have an old Apple II and you could get it serviced just like you can get your 1980s honda serviced at the dealership today.
I listened to the users also and it's nearly the same comment with minor variations. Imagine finding dozens of threads where the jokes are all the same, but with very unsubstantive changes in phrasing as the site is turning into Reddit.

The great Miyazaki watch of 2022
That sounds absolutely terrible and something like no person should ever have to go through. I understand the traumatic impact an incident like this could cause a person. Your experience is similar to mine in that once something does happen, its almost like the lawyers and doctors that should be there to protect you act like they can't fathom what you're telling them. Part of me just believes that they are so subscribed to the system that they can't even comprehend that it allows for such abuses. I've seen signs of it in my personal life. I've also had doctors straight up lie about things that were said during behavioral health appointments, and when I confronted them about it they continued to lie and try to gaslight me about it. I guess once you experience an event like that it is much harder to ever go back to trusting people and institutions the same way again.
The 5000km range barge needs a 6.5 GWhr battery, which is the equivalent of 130,000 base range model 3s.

That's a lot of batteries. Not sure if that much industrial capacity will be available soon enough.

Also, I'd really really hate to be the person that has to fight a marine fire on board the 6.5 GWhr battery barge.
2012 macbook pro user checking in. If it weren't possible to work on this computer myself, I wouldn't be able to use it anymore. It's been upgraded to 8gb of RAM then 16gb. It's been given an SSD. Various flex cables and the trackpad have been replaced. Battery has been replaced. All I do is use this thing for stackoverflow, email, and ssh, compute stuff happens on a server anyhow. As long as I can source parts off ebay, I don't see any reason why this thing can't make it to 20 and beyond.

The 2017 Chyrsler Pacifica shows numeric tire pressure at each tire in one of the info screens in the gauge cluster. Also has engine and transmission temperatures. No indicator about which gear the automatic transmission is in though (it does show PRNDL, but not 1-9). I forget what it showed when a tire was low; it might have said which tire it was, or I mighr have flipped to the info page quickly, anyway it notified me promptly when I got a wheel weight embedded in my tire.

Also, when the brake lights go out, it tells you in the info screen, and it says which one. Which is pretty neat.

Might vary by trim, I've got the 'Limited'

One thing a family member has that I'd like is seat belt indicators for every seat in a recent Toyota Highlander. Otoh, I don't like the lane departure warning (it does audible first, the Pacifica is more subtle, it only beeps if you don't respond to the nudges on the wheel)

The only hypothetical part on my part is how easy it would be to block a specific video. I know that blocking a single URL, or keyword matching on the title are common features in off the shelf proxy servers. Add some coding from a competent screen scraper, and you should be able to identify every way a specific video is being sent. I wouldn't be surprised if this functionality was already built in to some products.
Probably to stave off lawsuits for right to repair tbh. Tellingly they've only publicized the repair manuals for their newer machines, not their older hardware that certainly has a manual sitting in an internal server somewhere.

Yeah, shipping does seem to be one of the main applications where green hydrogen actually makes sense. Battery chemistry should improve to the point where basically no road transport should need anything else over the next 20 years (we're basically already there for most car applications, still some improvement needed for trucking etc., although maybe battery swaps is a better model there anyway). Ships need huge amounts of energy, but have the space to deal with hydrogen's poor volumetric density, unlike aviation, where I think synthetic fuel is a better option.
I’m really not sure what point you’re making. Where has anyone proposed a climate solution by using all of the world’s helium?

What we do use helium for today are things like MRI machines that are medically invaluable, and we do so wastefully potentially denying future generations this technology.

Even if we eventually find alternatives, it may be inferior or we may otherwise deny them technological advantages of similar importance that would be more accessible through access to helium.

The problem is that today Helium is cheap enough we’re happy to boil an MRI machine’s worth off into space for a child’s birthday party.

Climate change is simply another face of the same coin of indifference to the costs we confer on others.

you're correct, the chromium part is indeed statically linked, my only argument will be that html/css/js/webapi support, where chromium is more complete than whatever Tauri uses on each platform. for that alone, I will bear with more memory/cpu. plus there are more developers good at js than Rust.

Yeah, I'm familiar with this and it's a great resource.

The key difference is that it is still flashcard based. And you have to choose between a word or sentence cards that conflate the context with the word being studied.

By actually parsing the text, when you are studying the word "eat":
"Where are we going to eat?", "I wanna eat a burrito the size of my head!", "No way. You just ate that ice cream cone."

* You separate the target of studying from the context/presentation. You can create an exercise from any of the many sentences using eat, ate, eating, etc. And change examples for every study repetition.

* You can focus on individual conjugations or overall knowledge of the word.

* You have an objective right/wrong signal instead of a subjective 0-4 scale.

* You can attach definitions to not only the target word but all of the words in the sentence on demand.

* You can track learning across all 25 of the words from my examples simultaneously. And those sentences can be used to generate exercises for any one of those 25 words.
That was the web circa 2010, when people were still using spinbots and link wheels as an SEO technique. They were the same articles, but with occasional words swapped out so it wasn't duplicate content in the eyes of Google. The Panda update for Google was largely responsible for cutting down on that behavior.

What's fascinating about natural language models for me, is that I assume it is already being applied to "spin" articles, and I imagine that is part of why Google kinda sucks to use right now.

One of the interesting time-related applications I worked on was involved with medicines management. If a patient was to receive a medicine around the daylight savings change over we had to make sure it wasn't either doubled-up or missed completely.

I also worked on event planning software with plenty of timezone fun with events having a timezone, the planner a potentially different timezone and it also handled flights for speakers etc who could be coming from any number of other timezones. That was mostly straight forward with decent libraries, but it certainly taught me that you need to think in (and store) timezones and not just offsets.

> suicide drone swarm is non-economical and is a pure waste of high tech electronics in an explosion.

You state that very confidently, but give no reasoning at all.

A Javelin missile costs (IIRC) something like $100k. A Tomahawk cruise missile costs $2m. If you shoot more than one at a target (which I'm sure happens), you've got yourself a suicide drone swarm.

If you strap warheads to 5 COTS $1000 drones, and kill a tank with the swarm, that could be both 1) more economical than a Javelin, and 2) may even defeat some countermeasures (e.g. active ones optimized to attack a single threat, reactive armor designed to protect against a single hit).
The V2 characterization as a drone in ww2 also made me think the same thing.
