> A lot of growth now involves stacking transistors on top of each other.

Approximately none of the growth thus far involves stacking transistors on top of each other, unless you count 3D NAND flash memory. FinFETs and upcoming GAAFETs are less planar than traditional transistor designs, but still don't get you two or more separate transistors stacked on top of each other. Actual 3D stacking of transistors on a single wafer is still nothing more than a hot topic for R&D, and stacking multiple dies full of transistors is pretty much only done with memory so far.
Sadly, the USA prides itself on the illusion of a lot of things it doesn't actually deliver on.
Yes, and it's way better than jugs and cartons. In eastern Canada, it's the primary way milk is sold. You can buy cartons if you only need a small amount, but 4L jugs are only available at a few convenience stores and are not sold in grocery stores.

A larger bag contains three 1.33 L sealed, transparent bags of milk (4L total). Pop the bag into a jug (special jugs are sold for this, but any old jug will work) and cut one corner off to pour it. Minimal waste, super easy to pour, no lid required, doesn't take up so much room in the fridge, doesn't take up so much room on the dinner table... what's not to love?
No. Faith is belief without evidence or belief in the presence of contrary evidence. If we were to suppose the "base presumptions" of science were on the same level as religious claims, then they could be arbitrarily ignored without real-world consequences.
People have also discouraged thousands of non-famous people who got in over their head in a dangerous domain and killed themselves.

Also, the people you cite had expert level knowledge in their field when they built novel projects; they weren't asking beginner questions on HN.

As someone who has had professional involvement with them, I was thinking about this the other day. I would summarize them exactly the same way.

When it comes to security and privacy in cryptographic terms, they seldom make a misstep. They rightly uphold Kerckhoff’s principle. They do the most important technical things right and reliably. They deserve credit for that.

When it comes to all of the soft/human/marketing/product management decisions, they have some really bad calls under their belts. They deserve criticism for that.
In the recording, Leary talks about his experience working in an experimental psychedelic retreat in Mexico. I don’t think this is snake oil. LSD and other psychedelics have been shown to have tremendous therapeutic potential. This is what I meant about Leary talking to us in the future.
LOL. Anyone who works in chip design would know much M1/M2 changed the hardware game. It is actually the dabbler enthusiast talking about how power/perf isn’t important because his LED-laden shitbox has a wall plug (muh absolute performance) that doesn’t grasp how utterly irrelevant DIY builders are in the market. Just look at the relative sales of servers, laptops and desktop and see what we care about.

Not a single second of thought is ever spent by the architects/designers on optimizing “absolute performance”. We only care about perf/area and perf/watt. It is the marketing teams that try to hype up gamer performance. Overclocking/high voltage performance requires the engineering knowledge of a freshman intern: go raise the voltage/freq, run the test program, make a SKU.

Yeah for sure, but $0.05 AND $10 or whatever the fee is means it's still not suitable for most vendors, except on large purchases that have a % based fee.

Which one is the "main" chain is entirely/ subjective. If users prefer the unsanctioned chain, it can very well be "main", regardless (see BCH/BSV debacle on "who's the real BTC", also ETC).

Also just noting that while the conversation here is about Ethereum, you are describing the fork rules of Bitcoin. Next month the concept "hash rate" won't exist on ETH mainnet (potentially depending on who you ask; looks like there might be an ETC2).
I don't think the public conscience thinks that, but maybe we are in different cultures.
Viable business plan:
Buy an abandoned strip mall in the south. Cover it with solar panels. Use the energy to fill portable batteries. Provide a EV charging service or subscription on wheels for Tesla owners or other EVs who are struggling to find charging spots or superchargers nearby. Raleigh NC, Charleston SC, etc are possible test spots and anywhere else EV infrastructure is not going on full swing.

It seems like he's wanting to borrow science or at least some logic when it supports his argument but when it comes to the gods, he wants to say they exist outside of science and logic. This is a common argument and it's not ultimately falsifiable, ie, 'I say it's true because you can't prove otherwise'. And so too do invisible flying fairies exist who render themselves outside the realms of science due to magic pixie dust.
If they want to be found and can text their GPS location they probably could just be given directions to the nearest road where a ranger truck can pick them up. I think most people just don’t know how to reorient themselves and as little kids are told “if you get lost just stay where you are and someone will find you”. Give them a little help and they can get themselves out of trouble.

Reminds me of the time we were in Jungle School down in Panama. The first day was the land navigation course and a squad from headquarters had their one (and only) compass break. They ended up walking around the jungle for over a week before they found a road and flagged down a passing vehicle. If they had a way to communicate (or could read a frickin’ map) they’d have been back by chow time but, nope, the senior officers were like “they’ll turn up eventually” and didn’t even try to find them.
The cost is mostly in the installer based on the anecdotes of a well known technology youtuber in illinois. They are scared of installing heat pumps and carrying them allegedly. You may be able to buy compatible hardware on your own and get an installer. But aside from that one week you can get ASHPs that go down to 5F without losing efficiency. You can even get multi-head units that can move heat from where you might not need it (near a fireplace or stove) to where you do (bedrooms) ditto in reverse for cooling. But I'd suggest doing some research.
First Law: You can't win.

Second Law: You can't break even.

Third Law: You can't opt out.

So far, anyone who has claimed to break one of those laws is either missing some experimental error source, or is trying to sell something without the slightest bit of valid scientific proof as to their claims...

If someone actually had a working "free energy" device of some sort, I'd reasonably assume them to make Elon Musk and Bill Gates look like paupers, not be working in their garage making YouTube videos long on hype and short on details.

MKULTRA and all US-based human experimentation and study projects done both on their own citizen and foreigners from other (complicit) countries are quite a trip to read through. One would assume the government pouring so much money and man-effort into these researches would make ruthless individuals feel more justified in committing their overlooked, state-mandated crimes. Of course, being a sensitive, secretive and very speculative subject it's important not to take everything at face value, as there's an abundance of theories and the emotional impact can make one overlook logic.

Yeah, "development hell" is basically the result of scripts and moving towards actually producing a film is, for the most part, however lengthy and painful, mostly in the cost noise vs. actually shooting a film.
The thread contains lots of mentions of clipboard manager extensions which are apparently quite popular.

It should probably be put behind a permission, but generally I don't see how this is more problematic than an extension gaining full access to the page you're viewing.
1 brick is fungible with another brick. Lines of code are not. A project could be roughly sized by "bricks required"(if the project is a wall), but very few tasks in programming are like that. I'll be asked how long something will take to produce, not how many lines of code it will have in the end.

Line count is certainly a horrible measure generally, but it may not be a horrible measure for a given (programmer, language) pair, because most programmers have a certain style and may have a fairly standard rate of useful expression per line (or something like that, I just made it up).

However, without knowing either the programmer or the language, just raw line of code count is meaningless. People spend money on software because of what it usefully does for them, not because of the LoC.

And yes, I did read that far.

> write software avoiding Unicode as much as possible; if you need international text then you can specify which code page numbers to use.

For the sake of humanity, please don’t say we should consider bringing back code pages. My European language alone has 3 different ones (or was it 4?), and you can still see some places where code pages keep causing problems posthumously because they mojibake quite readily into other encodings and screw everything up. I was an infant when codepages were all the rage, and it’s still causing problems to this day even though I never had to contend with them in day to day use.

Unicode is not perfect, but it’s here and it provides a unified character namespace for the whole planet. That’s certainly something I don’t want to leave behind.
One thing to consider is the keyboard layout: while I love my 2013 MacBook Air (still humming along long after it's Razer successor died) I always trip over the layout of the ctrl/fn/option/flower keys vs the ctrl[/fn]/win/alt keys on the PC keyboards I use just as often. True, you can remap them, but if you do you end up with cognitive dissonance if you ever actually look at what key you're about to press; to this day I find this distracting and frequently frustrating.

Unless you're already used to the Apple keyboard layout I wouldn't be seduced by the sexy hardware and outstanding engineering; I know I won't make that mistake again.
> You're telling me that browser extensions should be able to read and write to my clipboard silently at all times, with no user activation or notification?

Well, the user has to activate the extension in the configuration menu, and it should include the notification that this feature is enabled, in the configuration menu. (If the user disables this feature but the extension is otherwise enabled, then the extension can have its own private clipboard instead. This can also be the case for web pages, too.)

You seem to be avoiding directly claiming to have had a prophetic dream, or be capable of remote viewing in your sleep, but this is what your claims imply. Did you really want to be claiming this?

The obsessive pleasures of mechanical-keyboard tinkerers
Agreed. I thought the article was really interesting. I don’t know much about how the author got their data, it seems like it’s a Kaggle dataset and I’m not familiar with how that was procured, but the analysis was really fascinating to me. So was the tweet by the person who asked Zomato about the repeated separate instances using the same FSSAI license, which I looked up and here is the link: https://mobile.twitter.com/ManjoBun/status/15331133101066608... : definitely no public follow up by Zomato.

The line chart was great as well showing the huge number of listings for that one kitchen.

I don’t live in India and I wondered what FSSAI is, so I looked that up as well. It’s the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India: https://www.fssai.gov.in/

The author is performing a public service that I feel ought to be done by the authority in question in the first place. I hope the article gets lots of traction and serves as an example for food safety authorities worldwide to prevent this kind of trickery.

I’m leaning towards subscribing to the author’s newsletter; at the end of the article they mention that they were the ones who posted that recent fake IMDB credit article which I also saw on HN, and I’m looking forward to reading the article on the early Indian internet (https://peabee.substack.com/p/15-mafatlal-and-the-early-indi...). (I once had a chance to see Vint Cerf give a talk and while it was a while ago I remember enjoying it.)

Last note: I thought it was kind of funny how the author resorted to using Google maps photos of the kitchens. I thought it would be worth an excursion outside to get more recent photos and see them first hand, but maybe the author has mobility issues or something. I feel it would add a personal touch though.
I have always been able to pay online, over the phone or via mail for my tickets with check, cash, card, or money order. This is in two states: California and North Carolina. For anything more serious than a speeding ticket in NC is a mandatory court visit depending on severity, California has a few more things you can just pay a fine than NC afaik.
Not what I was expecting to read by any stretch of the imagination. I was looking forward to seeing some piece about how restaurants have evolved to virtual spaces and delivery first thanks to the pandemic or some such.

I'm sure creative business types hate it when geeks who know how to search stuff profile their weird little approaches to trying to survive in today's economy and act like they clearly must be up to no good simply for having a large number of x, having no real evidence that the food is particularly bad or something.
The problem is that it can’t do it through the whole season, so you’re playing for a whole second system that you barely use for that week-month.

You may have to install your own because the installers won’t know what to do with one.
You're probably not that much older than me, the first PC I used was a Z80 based system (it came standard with a floppy drive though)
If this interests you, I highly recommend the novel "Overstory", which was a pulitzer prize winner in the last few years.

If I can give another suggestion: I think it would be much more useful for beginners to see the common alias of the chord in the main table (maybe below the name that already exists?).

(This is wrong, see the reply below:) For example, a beginner may see "G7" in the wild and not know it's a G minor 7 (and not a G major 7). They'd have to click the chords and search the alias list. If "G7" was written below "G minor 7", it would make things much easier.

Also, I think it would look better if the names in the main table were a bit more consistent. For exmaple, you have "G major ninth" but "Gmaj13". I think it would be better to have them as "Gmaj9"/"Gmaj13" or "G major ninth"/"G major thirteenth".
Has Intel ever released a benchmark or marketing comparison that wasn't the filtering equivalent of spelling and grammar mistakes in spam emails? If you notice it for what it is, you're not their target demographic.

Interesting and useful -- thanks. My understanding is that, at least for residential installations, the city sends an inspector to check things before you're allowed to turn the system on. This would appear to avoid the first-party inspector issues identified in the article, but are the city inspectors sufficiently "strict" or should I hire my own for peace of mind?
There is a noticeable lack of information about how to enroll. I suspect it's more of a "if you need to ask you aren't big enough" type deal.
You will find that there is a surprising amount of disagreement over what is actually staring you in the face. Some people will insist that (for example) if you just look around you, any sane person will see irrefutable evidence of intelligent design, and that if you think about this logically you will be led inevitably and irrefutably to the conclusion that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, Jesus is coming Real Soon Now (tm), and in the meantime He has sent Donald Trump to deliver the United States of America from commie pinko liberal atheists. And if you don't accept all of that then there is clearly something wrong with you.

There are literally millions if not tens of millions of American voters who at least profess to believe in the substance of what I have just written. Maybe they're all just trolling but I doubt it.

No, not AFAICS. Because if that were so, then "this historic event" could only mean one single event, the most historic event ever. That's obviously nonsense; there are / have been many historic events. And if there can be many of those, there can also be at least several historic lows.
