I am in the US and bought my current house from an older couple who could not keep up with the costs of having it, utilities definitely being a part of it. I do not know Swedish, but Google translate calls the house in the story you linked "a villa", which sounds to me like a rather upscale place. Make what you want out of it. As far as I can see this particular situation has nothing to do with socialism.

The link numbered 2 starts with this in Google translate: "Already in February, the Granholm couple from Öland noticed that electricity prices were skyrocketing. Even though they were only open for a few days that month, they received an electricity bill of SEK 30,000." What kind of successful pizza business is open only for a few days a month? Doesn't this make you suspicious about electricity being the biggest cause of the closure, and not just the final kick to the already dying business?
> empowering someone to say "Not until you do all this unwelcome work to implement it to the standards the company has chosen"

It has not been my experience that this is what most IT security orgs say in practice.

It's usually "No, unless we do it" followed by "And we don't have time to do it."

Which is fundamentally because they're a cost center, and typically staffed like one.
Yep---that was it in my case. I had the same error but it went away after upgrading to MacOS 12.5. You should actually check if your PyTorch installation can detect the mps backend: `torch.backends.mps.is_available()` must be equal to True.

Firecracker keeps a bitmap of which pages have been dirtied (it's a flag you can turn on), so you can make incremental snapshots of only the changed pages (more here: https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main...).

In our case we changed Firecracker to use a shared mmap instead of an private mmap, so in our case the dirtied pages were synced back automatically to the backing memory file. The main reason for this was to reduce IO on snapshot time. I'm also looking at other ways we can do this, because using a shared mmap fragments the underlying xfs fs pretty fast. Maybe we can batch writes more instead of writing single pages.
FAA Aviation Handbooks and Manuals
Figures from https://journalistsresource.org/environment/plane-lead-fuel-...

In 2008 there were 167,000 small planes. The discounted present cost of future lost productivity due to the lead in their gas in any given year is $1.63 billion. That's about $9760 of lost productivity per year you choose to fly that plane.

Some models put the cost of lost productivity due to lowered IQ much higher, for about $11.3 billion. That's about $67,700 per plane per year of damage caused to others (mostly poor and often minorities).

Do you think this qualifies as "blood on his hands"?

People will differ in their opinions on that. Certainly if he was breaking into poor people's houses and trashing them, everyone will condemn him. But he clearly had no intention to do harm, and probably had no idea of the full extent of the harm that he has been doing. There is also room for people to argue with the assumptions in the scientific model.

But the range of defensible opinions ABSOLUTELY includes his having the blood of poor people on his hands.

And to be clear, "knocking" means engine detonation, which very quickly leads to catastrophic engine failure. Which is something that you don't want while in flight.

Until now, the only alternative was to fly a turbine-powered aircraft that can run on Jet-A. The problem with those is that turbines are far too expensive, and terribly inefficient at low altitude - both of which have kept them out of reach for most of general aviation.
As mentioned in sibling comments, Torch is indeed the glue in this implementation. Other glues are TVM[0] and ONNX[1]

These just cover the neural net though, and there is lots of surrounding code and pre-/post-processing that isn't covered by these systems.

For models on Replicate, we use Docker, packaged with Cog for this stuff.[2] Unfortunately Docker doesn't run natively on Mac, so if we want to use the Mac's GPU, we can't use Docker.

I wish there was a good container system for Mac. Even better if it were something that spanned both Mac and Linux. (Not as far-fetched as it seems... I used to work at Docker and spent a bit of time looking into this...)

USB-IF is made up of manufacturers. The primary goal is lower BOM. The confusion is the point. Making everything optional is the point.

USB-IF is not going to adopt a standard that requires every manufacturer to retool or redesign their Widget in order to slap a USB 4 label on it. Why would they vote for that? The whole 2x2/Gen2/etc thing was so some of the members could do some minor revisions then keep shipping their existing chips and products without them being considered "old", with a bit of "design by committee" mixed in.

USB-IF doesn't give two shits what you or I or anyone else thinks about it, nor what our actual experiences with it are. They care about how much it costs. And by cost I mean an $0.01 difference per unit is considered a significant savings.

Honestly… I just want to make sure my kid isn't getting forced into something that even they don't want to do. Or maybe they want to but they don't have the context to understand how much it will negatively effect their life from that point forward. Think like serious injury or death… I totally understand the push back against over protective parenting but the opposite side is pretty rough too. Also, every kid is different. You might have one kid that seems to be able to adapt and understand situations and another who is totally underdeveloped in that area. It's kind of complicated
Having written forum stuff a few times over, I’m not sure you realize what you should even ask for. We never released the last rewrite, so could sell that, but it’s old…

The biggest VM we've been running for dev environments have 12GB RAM, 8vCPUs and 30GB disk. I've also done some tests with 16GB RAM and that worked well too. Have yet to find an upper limit.

Another (unrelated) test we've done is on overprovisioning memory. We were able to run 200 VMs (all running Vite dev server where a file was changed every second) with 2GB RAM per VM, on a node with 128GB RAM. Because we were mapping the memory files on disk directly to the VM, the VM would automatically "swap" the memory back to the memory file when it had memory pressure. The bottleneck here was CPU.
There should be a different lifetime attached to these cloud-based smart home devices. It's an implicit lifetime separate than the hardware: how long can the company last? And what's their frequency of plug-pulling? If it's not an established company, I would be wary buying anything from them. Even established companies tend to pull the plugs on cloud-based hardware, so caution also applies to them.

My current guideline for purchasing:

- How long will the company last?
- How likely is it for the company to sunset a product?
- Are there fallbacks in place in case of company closure or server shutdown? This should be supplied by the company, and not cobbled together by users after losing server connection.
Pretty obvious if you run enough prompts created by other people and look at the outputs — some users just through anything and everything into a prompt. If they get lucky with a given prompt, they become superstition. Most notable is the injection of non-alphanumeric or comma characters as delimiters. Super odd, makes me wonder how common the same pattern is in real life.

I followed the conda instruction which uses Python 3.9 and ran into the same issue. The workaround is to import TypeAlias from typing_extensions:

(after)

from typing import Optional, Callable
from typing_extensions import TypeAlias

Another poster beat me to it: hire older devs! I'm 42 and my ideal work is maintaining several systems that move rather slowly. It's chill, still responsible, and allows for creativity and inventive solutions when the need calls for it.

Not going to bash younger devs in general but the fact is that getting the job done without thinking of their future career... is usually not high in their list of priorities.
The premise of GAMI injectors is that not all cylinders are supposed to receive the same amount of fuel, because they don’t all receive the same amount of air. The intent is to achieve the same air-fuel ratio, which means having different injector sizes for different cylinders.

I have GAMIs; they are one per cylinder, just like the factory injectors were, but provide closer matched air-fuel ratios. I also have per-cylinder EGT and CHT instruments and have measured less than 0.3gph spread (about 2%) between the leanest and richest cylinder. Modern cars are rarely measuring per-cylinder fuel, but rather measuring the average of half or all the cylinders and using that to adjust short and long term fuel trims.

I have theorized that perhaps one of the best ways to reduce this kind of thing is to require that all data gathered on everyone be made publicly available for anyone to freely search from a single centralized location/portal. With the data pulled up having the source it was gathered from, and possibly an email sent to whatever gathered email is included when new data is added to the portal.

But I too would very much like a way to search for myself to see what they have collected.

The cost of materials and labor is really high for most people, not to mention land. And then there’s maintenance. It’s out of reach for most people. Populations are so much larger than they were 100 years ago and people want increasingly large dwellings.

I think the tiny home concept makes sense as it’s trailers without the stigma. But yes, we probably need to think of a new type of town built around small properties that are pre-fab and disposable outside the connecting infrastructure.

I don’t think dense towers are the answer though.

Yeah, it's a good question. I suspect with corporate carpooling, sure there is tons of people commuting, however they are using a mix of their own cars, public transit, and carpooling. So it's sort of an unproven market to sell into at a large scale (vs taxi industry). I think there is an untapped need for people that want cheap/free rides with people they already know/trust (co-workers) to and from work. Well, that's the theory at least.

Thank you! Right now our main use case is cloning development environments so we can provide a fresh running dev env for every branch and PR. However there are many other interesting applications, like speeding up CI jobs with VMs that start from a snapshot.

I'll make sure we write about the other topics as well. For the network, we run the VM in its own network namespace on the host, and we give every VM the same IP. We then use an iptable rule to rewrite every incoming and outgoing packet to the IP that the host has assigned for the VM.

I seem to recall that back in the early days of USB, the organization would hold a conference where all the vendors brought their devices, and everyone would go around testing compatibility with everyone else's devices. Often by making the most convoluted device configuration tree possible (because that's what the users would do).

Myself, I ran into an incompatibility for the first time ever last week in over 24 years of using USB devices. A new Thinkpad with Windows 10 would lock up it's USB bus if I plugged a USB speaker in using the hub on my Dell monitor. Hooking it up directly worked fine. These are all "legacy" USB 3.0 devices with Type A and Type B connectors, and have worked for years with other computers (PC + Mac). What a shitshow USB has become.

Fair point. That's called a warranty, and they should have been legally required to support their product until the end of warranty period. Posting a notice on their website in June and shutting down the servers in September is a jerk move.

> And by cost I mean an $0.01 difference per unit is considered a significant savings.

Could someone ELI5 this line of thinking? Exactly how is a $0.01 saving so consequential? Is a better-performing $9.99 cable too expensive for some people but a $9.98 cable within their budget somehow? Is each manufacturer manufacturing 100 million cables and saving $1M here? What is the logic?
It depends what companies we're talking about. Most of these companies are not internet services, they're so big that they're logistics companies - manufacturing, shipping, receiving, legal, human resources, etc etc etc. The internet is the conduit and plays a role in their marketing and sales, but there is absolutely no economic incentive for companies to share the data or consumers to move to an inferior product. This stickiness means consumers will purchase from those companies because of influences imposed by their data-moat (better price and product)

If you say that decentralization is the solution, I'd retort "what are you even planning on decentralizing?", because most of their logistics isn't on "the internet", it's on the dark web
I feel like you misunderstood my post. I said that pushy, dominant horses end up at the top of the hierarchy. That pushy, dominant horse might be a good leader or it might be insecure or just plain mean and spend its time chasing the rest of the herd around and picking fights. I think I used the phrase "harried and banged up" to describe the state of the herd in this situation. I suppose that in the long run, evolution-wise, that animal's offspring are less likely to survive. During its lifetime, however, it beats up the other horses and they lose body condition as the dominant horse can't chill out and let the band graze.
