Nurse is given 50 hours of work for an 8 hour shift. Do you want the nurse to do the essential work and mark the rest as complete even if it wasn't, or do you want the nurse to just ignore what their coworkers are doing, not check off all the boxes, and get fired?
2000 entries would work well but it would make bragging about being on the front page less of a thing.
If you’re running on the softer side of real time then it’s acceptable to just run an experiment that confirms that you really only use a small percentage of CPU and that to your knowledge the GC never blew up and made you miss a deadline.

But on the harder side of real time you’re going to have to prove this. And that is super hard even if you’re overprovisioning like crazy.
The city of Paris is tiny and covers just a small portion of the total "Paris metropolitan area". The metropolitan density of Paris is lower than most US suburbs. The city of Paris would not work at all without the significant "Regional Natural Parks" right outside, but also without the significant suburbs.

The chart you cite is flat out wrong. It claims to be "metropolitan areas", but Paris' entry is only for the City of Paris. The comparable wouldn't even be New York city, which is very nearly as dense - It would be Manhattan Island.

Paris' metropolitan area density is 690/km2, which is less than the not-dense King County[1] that I live in, and comparable to the mostly-rural Snohomish just to our north.

People need room. A very dense city center is a great place to be for a few days, a few months, a few years, and it's not as if nobody ends up living their their whole life, but most people move to places with space because they want space. Paris is significantly less dense than it was 100 years ago[2]... for precisely that reason.

A strong city core with suburbs is a good way to live. We need more of them - More large cities with a 10^9 people surrounded by a suburb of 10^10, not megacities with 10^11 people cramped in endless rows of tenements.

Have you considered phone number verification? Both minors and people in non-western countries are a lot more likely to have a phone than a credit card. Not sure how easy it is for fraudsters to get their hands on large quantities of phone numbers though.

I wonder, because Github actions are a thing, Github is likely to be facing the same issue, and is likely to have implemented mitigations already. Maybe you could piggyback on that effort and require Github auth?
Studies on heritable differences in intelligence are effectively banned in the West due to the overlap with genetics of ancestral continental populations, or what’s approximately known as race. Everyone who looks at the well-developed, consistently-replicated body of study here knows what is known and why it is politically unpalatable. East Asian countries do not have these self-imposed bans on scientific truth (these truths, anyway). They will do the research first, reap its rewards, and develop a permanent civilizational advantage. Designer babies are an irresistible competitive edge.

Ironic and sad, it’s precisely this research that could close today’s measured gaps.
The only older OS I actually miss is Amiga Workbench.

I had an older coworker at one of my first jobs who would go on and on about VMS all day and how UNIX sucks. I never used VMS so I wouldn't know :)
Everyone remains IFR, but visual approaches are indeed the way to get a few more flights per hour in the US. Europe decided to instead keep the separation by radar, but allows lower radar separation (less distance) compared to the US once aircraft are establish on the localiser (meaning they're on a straight line to landing).

The limitation on hourly capacity for both systems is how quickly planes can get off the runway after landing.
>I think there is a lot more nuance than people admit. Lets take an example of we have a deadly disease spreading through the population (much more deadly than covid) . Let's say a scientist finds out that the disease is primarily (exclusively) spread by red haired people. Should they just publish the finding?

Yes, they should.

>A better way is likely to quietly talk to the authorities first.

OK - talk to the authorities first, and then publish the results.

>Another example could be that there is some disease that is entirely harmless but 100% infectious and deadly to some group (e.g. Black people). Now should that research just be released into the public?

Yes, it should.

>I admit these are somewhat hypothetical scenarios, but you said the truth should always come up,. I just give counterexamples.

You didn't give counter-examples. You gave examples of times where the information should be shared with the public and then asserted that it shouldn't for .. I don't know what reason.

Here's a pragmatic reason for sharing truthful information with the public: If you want the population to trust public health officials, public health officials need to trust the public with the truth.

Apple hardware has never been about non-consumer, server or industrial applications outside of some film, music and movie studios using mac pros and the Xserve long time ago.

And if your making an MRI machine or other industrial equipment that consumes a huge amount of power, the fact your attached computer uses 300W vs 600W doesn't really seem like much of a big deal.

Apple has a head start with their ARM machines, but I'm also not really worried that the rest of the industry won't catch up in a few years eventually. You can only really pull off the new architecture trick once or twice, and being a leader has a way of inspiring competitors.

Apple's software and OS is also horrible to use in server applications, you only do it if you need to do it, such as iOS CI, device testing and such. Otherwise you avoid it as much as you can.

Black isn't a "race", it's a social category. You can't actually be serious? In America, black includes people of Caribbean descent, people from South America, African-Americans, someone that stepped off a plane from Ethiopia. It's a completely meaningless term in regards to science. You can't actually be serious?
That true. I’m just playing devils advocate. I use community services when I want to do anything gym like . The only reason for a gym membership is if your community provides nothing or the hours just don’t work for you (e.g. you like early morning or very late at night)

May not have to wait so long. A failed rudder deep in international waters can easily kill someone. And a broken rudder in a busy shipping channel can even easier kill someone.

An attack on someone's rudder while offshore is 100% an attack on their life, and arguably justifies lethal self defense.
I cannot tell if you’re just going along with the bit, or if you’re completely serious. Either way, absolutely hilarious
I like the idea but part of me worries that it’d just end up being the Hackoberfest nonsense again? Manual verification perhaps? Seems like a lot of work though…

It wasn't a sentence about domestic abuse, it was one point of many demonstrating the trashiness of one person Joe constantly promotes as a hero. There are dozens of other trashy heroes of Joe's. I gave some understated examples. It wasn't my main point, though. The question was "Why is Joe Rogan awful?" One answer: he promotes trashy people and spreads scummy ideas with authority.

> Can anyone clarify what the minimum cost of say, a demo Django project would be now? I come up with $16/month, using a $7 dyno and a $9 postgres instance. Is that accurate?

Yeah, that's accurate. If you need a worker (like celery), then that's another $7, as that's an extra dyno. If you need redis, then that will be another $15.

> Also, if you're testing the deployment process, what's the minimum charge? Say I push a project, test it to see that the deployment worked, and then destroy the project in less than three minutes. Will I be charged for three minutes of resources, or is there some hourly/daily/monthly minimum? I can't find that kind of info anywhere.

They charge you per minute (or per second?) iirc.
I rarely do more than 3 page views. Most of my Reddit sessions span 1 page.
I use VPNs to access region-restricted content (mostly to pretend I’m in the USA) and not for the privacy aspects, so VPNs aren’t really a ‘scam’.
So, I tried Fly.io and they have this pricing like AWS, which is totally not intuitive, and this just makes me uncomfortable.

Heroku was much simpler and this is what their quality was from the start. It isn't just that there was a free tier, it was, when you have to pay, there was a limit and you could understand, I am paying $15 for instance, $7 for database, $5 for redis (I don't remember prices), sum is $27/mo, so you know roughly how much it would cost you.

k8s is really just a lot of Linuxisms put together in semi-novel, intelligent, and pluggable way. That list of features u/orf posted is all possible with plain Linux. You can start really minimal k8s, almost like plain containers on Linux. But going from one machine and one container/workload to literally 100k containers, 100s of machines and workloads working together in secure ways is really difficult without the organization that k8s APIs, interfaces, automations, and concepts impose on Linux.

I've helped an 80% new team survive Black Friday and make $10M revenue in 3 hours in a 6 week engagement. I helped a 100% new team build their first CI/CD system to build/run/test their aircraft embedded system in containers. I’ve helped credit card companies scale dozens of clusters to 150k services under management backed by over 250k containers, per cluster.

And it’s the same code that will run on a 10 year old PC or RPi3B as a single instance. It really is a story about the power of Linux.

Why would someone want to lead with irrelevant sermons to the choir before making the remark they came to make?
The 6850U is comparable in power use and still has a big perf gap against the M2 in mosts tests. Though there are some tests where the M2 leads with a big gap too so maybe it comes down to software in a lot of these. Still it seems to me like Apple is not leading.

Sometimes over 200.. And then we pay super high excise (lowered until the end of the year) and tax over fuel. Basically we pay about half on taxes over fuel.

I'm not sure Hacker News has the audience for subreddits. It's a big site sure, but it's not Reddit level popular, and splitting content across different sections of the site will hurt its activity even more. I guess tags or categories that merely let you search by the type of ccontent rather than splitting them up entirely could work though, since the general feed would contain everything by default.

But that's not really how subreddits work.

We're talking about CPU core design.

Would we say the Zen 4 core design is less efficient because AMD is going to start bundling an integrated GPU with Ryzen chips, or would we just talk about Zen 4 core power draw vs Zen 3?

Apple's performance cores managed to improve performance while cutting power.

What other iterative core design did this?

It helps to remember that Apple isn't playing the performance via clock increases no matter what happens to power and heat game.
I wanted a place where I can showcase what I was creating using DALL-E, DALL-E Mini and Stable Diffusion. But I didn't just wanted a place, I wanted a place where its clear that things are being created using AI.

This is only a small start, a network of people showcasing their imagination.

Whats coming (3-6 months), a substack style newsletter service where you can have paid subscribers. (that would depend on what generator you are using and their policies)

Starting with images, but soon you will be able to share short stories and music.

I am also working on setting up a small generator using open source stable diffusion and further improve and fine tune that model.

Also, APIs are coming soon. you will be able to access all images in public domain to further train your models.

Note that to post anything you would have to comply with the generator's policies (specifically DALL-Es since that pretty restrictive)

Hope it's useful for you. I would love to have your feedback and participation.

There is one very common case where people abort fetuses because of reasons that are not "saving the child from worse prospects". This is people not wanting girls because "girls are economic and social liabilities and boys are assets". In my country, sex-selective abortion has been so prevalent that doctors now don't tell parents the sex of the fetus. If they did, very quickly would there be a difference of millions between males and females in the population with all the social problems that brings about.

If somehow tomorrow, some research project resulted in a very cheap device, usable by anyone, that could tell the sex of a baby, I think one would have to at least seriously debate and ponder whether publishing such work is good for the country or not.
Seems like a ridiculous decision which could be solved by banning particular classes of generations (presumably Deepfake type material is what they're concerned about).

However, Reddit isn't exactly good at making product decisions anymore (see: New Reddit), so I suppose their lack of sense isn't exactly shocking.
Absolutely. Marxism is an odd cult that slipped past a lot of protections that should have applied to it.

Persons from any faith that worships the state becoming a manifestation of its perfect idol and does the work (praxis) to make it so, should not be allowed any role in it as they would not adhere to the separation of church&state.
No, there is no universal "good" otherwise wars would not occur. The American Civil War and WW2 are pretty classical examples of massive disagreements over the legitimacy of certain classes of humans. Had those wars not ended the way they did, black people would still be property, and Jews, Romani, and LGBT people would have been exterminated. There are still people who wish that we lived in that alternative history. Democracy is always a compromise, and when that breaks down, you get wars.
I didn't say or even imply that it was malicious. Regardless, it's disrespectful and unprofessional. I fail to see how adding yet another SaaS tool into the mix of the dozens that companies already use is somehow going to fix what is essentially a cultural problem. Applicant Tracking Systems have already been a thing for a long time now.
I used this tactic to break up with WSJ. However, I think they technically reserve the right to try to collect fees if you don't cancel through their system.

Another time, I had a service continue to try to bill me monthly for 2 years. I just let it keep saying "your order is about to ship" and "there was a problem with your card". Eventually, they found a way to charge me (I'm really not sure how) and had an order go through, after which I cancelled through an option buried in their website.
You've picked a strange subset of 'most' for the people you're imagining. They are savy enough to know what a password manager is, but not savy enough to deal with an offline one. Are you sure its not just a few people like you?

I’m finding it interesting that THIS is the reason that people are now determined to move, rather than the constant outages/issues they’ve had over the last 6 months.

Nothing about this is remotely surprising. Over the last 12 months their reliability has nose dived and their support has become borderline useless.

We’re planning on migrating to Fargate in the next 6 months. I am VERY much looking forward to shutting our Heroku account down.
I saw a letsplay of it once, and on some weird youtube niche documentary rabbit hole I learned that train simulators have been entwined with the model building community since the start (late 90s) and the concept of having track layout planning, control over signals and interlockings, and first person simulation, all wrapped into a single piece of software is nothing new.

Who will then have to create a public health campaign targeted at, for example, gay men, and everyone will learn of the research anyways.

Besides which, most countries are led by people who constantly leak secrets. It would get out long before any action could be taken.
>Most of this seems wildly unenforceable at a practical level.

At a practical level, it's very enforceable. You just setup a a "science-must-respect-dignity-of-all-humans" committee at every major publication and university, and just block any violating papers from publication, prevent grants from going to 'bad' research and don't hire anyone who does subscribe to your orthodoxy.

We're well on our way to do that (if not already there).
According to Wikipedia:

Are you taking about scientific research (as per the original article) or healthcare delivery? Medical researchers should take the take the time to be precise about characterizing their subjects, and rely on subject-reported demographic data as little as possible. Practitioners and public health have to take a more pragmatic approach, and rely on generalizations for the sake of convenience. Those are different use cases with different best practices.
Go to Privacy.com. Register and give your real credit card. Don't get the $10/month subscription for "real" privacy, unless you really don't want a record of your purchases.

Now when you "subscribe" to WhizBang online, go to Privacy and create a special credit card just for WhizBang. Give WhizBang a fake name and address as well, and don't use your "regular" email. Create some spares on ProtonMail or some other low-friction service.

When WhizBang goes to verify your credit card, your fake name & address are not checked. You can give them whatever you want.

Your purchase will appear on your regular credit card records. If you want Privacy to use a fake seller, you have to pay for that.

When you want to cancel WhizBang, you just close their credit card. They will get a Decline when they go to charge it, and they'll eventually cancel you. You can go through their official cancellation process, if you want to.

This works. It's what I do.
