Dark Star. Good movie.
I am starting to see resolution doesn't matter. According to the specs, Valve Index has a very low average pixel density of about 13-15ppi. Criminal. Compare that to the high end iPhone display's pixel density of 128ppi. So if we could have ocular displays around 100ppi @720p, that would look a lot better than that of Valve Index displays at its seemingly impressive 1440x1600.
It's only 5 cm wider and longer than a Honda Civic. It's higher, of course, since it's a "compact crossover", but not as high as Suzuki Jimny, for example.
This would be super convenient in tight, small workplaces like airplanes (as advertised in the video).
Every one of the devices failing at this particular date have been 'corrected' for it: They are shifting the wrap point based on their manufacturing date. The natural wrap point isn't now-- the second natural wrap was in 2018.

Correcting for it more elaborately than that is challenging, in particular if you depend on remembering the number of wraps a replacement part pulled off the shelf will return wrong dates when the original was fine, also if you remember then a false (or spoofed) signal can put the device in a bricked state.

Most GPS receivers (including most of the ones listed here) can be temporarily fixed by setting the date manually. But their interfaces may be inaccessible in the devices they're installed in and the fix will be lost after restart.

The L1C/L2C/L5 gps signals use a 13 bit week number. Hardware for the new signals was first deployed with the IIR-M satellites in 2005 with L2C support, which were delayed from something like 1997... but no broadcasting of L2C started until 2014. Right now very few receivers support the new signals.
People think CS is unimportant, which is why we have crap software left, right and centre. But I don't want to get into that, so let's suppose you're right. What OP needs to figure out is if a job where CS is considered unimportant is what they want from their professional life. Pushing bits between API calls and learning new frameworks, building product features into a codebase without breaking existing ones.
Hiring your spouse's divorce attorney sounds like a smart play, honestly. Except for the whole "conflict of interest" thing.
But that came later .I am referring 2017 when this became a meme. Also Biden is not a journalist.
It certainly is to me. I like knowing that I can run code as long as I want, and not as long as their packagers allow. You can always compile old versions of ruby, python, etc yourself but let's be honest, it's a ball ache. And it'll only get worse as dependencies become more and more outdated.
I had a Sony Glasstron in 1999 that was basically the same idea but TV-resolution instead of 1080p. It was fine for playing games and watching movies. A little bit alienating to anyone else in the room, though.
So the renter gets to live in an apartment for free, and then receives free cash from the landlord, too?
An optimal amount is an amount that can be achieved. The only way to achieve zero fraud is to have zero financial transactions.
Alternatively, take the least desired city owned parcel and upzone it; gov services in the lower floors, housing in the upper floors. Build as high as economically reasonable.

I very much like your idea by the way! Complex problems occasionally require creative solutions.
Make sure you're comparing apples to apples. Launches are usually scrubbed because of weather. Repeatedly bringing a rocket to the pad on launch day that's ultimately not flight-worthy is different than scrubbing because of higher than nominal cross winds.

And this case is particularly spectacular because while it's ostensibly just a test, they are literally using the exact same engines that the Space Shuttle used. Not as in the exact model, but literally refurbished RS-25 engines that already completed successful flights on the Space Shuttle.
It is very illegal per CFAA, there is already precedent for this. Here is one such case that is popular in case law curriculum. [0]

What’s your strategy for finding clients, if you don’t mind me asking?

And how do you handle ongoing maintenance/sysadmin?
Usually in cases like that where the company doesn't have a local entity you will be employed through a EoR (Employer of Record) like Remote, Deel and many others.

Then you are not directly employed at the company but employed through another company which then grants you the benefits for the local country that were negotiated. The other alternative is a regular freelancer / contractor relationship.
I played with Upsource back when it was their "static-analysis in the cloud," and it actually was cool, but holy hell it was a beast to get up and running, and (just like Qodana that they're trying now) the static analysis was(is?) indescribably hard to configure correctly to get meaningful results

I've heard great things about Gerrit, but it also seems like one of those "strongly opinionated, mailing-list based" review systems, and trying to lobby for such a thing in the GitHub/GitLab web based world is practically a non-starter in my experience
Of course, I'm sure that all breakthroughs in human history have been a mix of intellect, hard work, circumstances, and luck.

But my problem with what you quote and what I replied to is the anti-capitalist, if not anti-imperialist/anti-western, undercurrent.

My take on this quote is the contrary: it is testament to the success of the Western/capitalist/free market economy system.

Why? Because the starting point for all of mankind is nothing. But somehow we managed to create a society that allowed Einstein to exist.

We should realise what a tremendous success that is.

Ultimately it is up to the people to make it happen in their own country and in their own way.

This mirrors my experience with unions pretty closely. I would much prefer that the sort of workers rights unions provide were instead at a government policy level.

That being said, there will always be some need for collective bargaining. I only wish it were possible to limit these extreme union grabs for power.

Even without trust, you will reach an optimal amount because preventing fraud tends to become more expensive than the fraud itself, once you cover the simple and easy cases
I haven’t worked in both continents. But in US some people do and some people don’t. We definitely have many people who subscribe to a work hard to get more attitude. Those people work hard including long hours because they are ambitious, especially startup cultures. Founders really hustle. Alternately there are those that work hard because their manager makes it expected and the employee need their job badly and it’s “easy” to fire people in US. Alternately there are MANY people too that have good WLB or coast.

Personally my WLB has varied by job and responsibilities. I’ve had many years of ~35h weeks, and never worked a 50hr week. My partner though is more neurotic and ambitious and often works 10hr days.
Highly unlikely to happen 3 months before midterms
We are aware of other solutions to an unexpected and aggravating problem that wore out its welcome all over the rest of the US by then
I think it was a warranted bias. Obviously in the show's past there was a time when predators predated, or they wouldn't have brought it up.

That makes it more noble. The Rabbit is not just getting over a silly uninformed prejudice, but is willing to intellectually set aside the ongoing murder of her ancestors to fully analyze a case. "Sure, they are naturally violent and we all know that, but is that enough to account for ..." She's a real investigator who refuses to be distracted.
Do you guys charge the same rate no matter the task ? if a customer wants a quickfix or some trivial change do you adapt ?

On the other side of the spectrum, if you spend way longer than thought on a feature, do you stop charging or do you consider your work is still worth for them ?

Given this choice I would press the green button.

If I was flat broke, living on the street, or in debt even, I would find investors to pay, say 5 @ 200k each, for me to press the green button and reward them 1mm each in case of payout.
Admittedly, I'm not an expert at this stuff, but it seems like strictly using expected values to calculate optimum decisions can get you into some strange situations, like infinite expected value [1]. For some reason the author brings up lump sums vs annuities, which I don't think is at all comparable to betting (annuities from the US govt are guaranteed payments). That aside, a number of people have already mentioned Kelly criterion [2]. This strategy would tell you that you should take the guaranteed $1 million, but this is a long-run strategy. I personally would take the $1 million because it is guaranteed. I'm also not sure if relying on math for a one-off event like this makes sense.

I’m having a hard time making sense of your comment. Moratoriums are a wealth transfer from smaller landlords to tenants and institutional landlords. They cannot last forever as eventually small landlords will run out of wealth.
I’ve done this. They asked me to leave the loan outstanding for two months and I ran the numbers on the interest that would accrue. They agreed to deduct that amount (several hundred dollars) from the purchase price.

Of course, this was pre-supply chain crunch, so now you’d probably be best off not saying you’d prepay and just doing it ASAP
On a tangent, and I’m just spitballing here, how is this for a business idea. I: have a PhD (which is not to say I’m smart, it is just to say I have been exposed to lots of facts that other people may not have been exposed to), and I have a bunch of ideas that may or may not be good ones, but I’m too risk-averse to act on any of them and start a business. You: have a bunch of money and are open to ideas. So you pay me, say, $100 bucks to just vomit my ideas out during a 15 minute phone call. Like a cheap loot box of ideas, most of which have a low probability of success, but there may be a nugget of gold in there.
Not now. It probably was from 2018-2021. Probably will be again at some point.

But don’t take that to mean you can just walk in and ask for money. People still want to know who they’re investing in. Prior track record is key.
I suspected that much (that it was an analogy for some kind of actual situation).

But what situation? How is it that a person's life has many of these chances in large enough volumes to make expected values worth it?
What do you expect when this ratio is reversed (high critics review but low user reviews)?
If only these studios appreciated that they could compound the value of the IP by rallying the existing fans (ie. "early adopters") instead of trying to jump straight to the "majority" audience. It is just corporate greed mixed with hubris. The Foundation tv show is another example of this short-sighted approach.
If you could get 10 friends to agree on such an arrangement would you still have one press the red button to ensure everyone at least gets something? Or take the 1/1024 chance of getting nothing at all in return for the likelihood of everyone getting 25 million?
> I want to see black people stories, not just black people participating in white people stories where they are not originally mentioned

Isn't part of the problem that there are no such stories for those who were stolen from their culture and made to work by force, kept uneducated on purpose, and weren't given the opportunity to build stories of their own?

A lot of Afro American don't speak their original language anymore, they don't know the folklore, the religions, the customs, might not even know where they came from, it's all been forgotten and erased, they're raised American now.

I feel this is where inclusivity matters, if you're raised American, but aren't, and all movies and stories exclude you, it just reminds you that you're still treated differently.

I'm definitely not very educated on Afro American stories, so maybe I'm wrong here, I just thought this is possible, it can be easy for colonized nations and enslaved people to lose their culture as they are forcefully assimilated, so decades later of this it's hard for them to make movies about what maybe is forgotten even to them.
Like all engineering decisions, hydrogen is a choice with tradeoffs.

It's specific impulse ('fuel efficiency') is unbeatable. That buys you a lot more cargo capacity for the same sized rocket. And since this program is putting large items into lunar orbit, you need that badly.

But as you said, it's... complex to work with.

Hey it worked for the space shuttle.

> and that should be easy for a receiver with a few bits of local storage unless

unless it gets a single spoofed or corrupted signal, then it's stuck in the future.

Of course you can implement countermeasures, like requiring months of observation to advance the flag, but that makes it much less easy (and harder to test).

> it's been powered off for more than a decade.

That's also a concern. You don't want a receiver to get hit by lightning then get swapped out with a spare on the shelf and suddenly get the wrong date. Now you need a provisioning step that requires remote access to a normally completely embedded component.

Again, not insurmountable-- but it's getting away from easy.
Trying to move around while you've got a screen like that active in a VR headset is a bad idea, but I love watching Netflix VR like that. Just find a comfortable position and chill.

It's a bit more complicated than that.

In most of the paintings you'll find Jesus has a darker skin tone (and hair)

Every single leader went there and begged Putin not to invade. They physically couldn't join NATO because they had disputed territories and the US would have kept the status quo.

This is a Neville Chamberlain argument. No I'm not comparing Putin to Hitler but the motivations of any dictator are the same. The west *tried* repeatedly to appease Putin so this claim is just patently false and proven to be so.

Let's prove:

* Invasion of Crimea was a test from Putin's side. The west tried all political options to no avail.

* Then he started a "rebellion" and again the west wasn't successful with negotiation

* Before he invaded Biden went public and explained EXACTLY what he was going to do. A smart man would have retreated. This would have humiliated Biden and might have paved the way for Trump to get back into office. But he was stupid and invaded

So no. He isn't a person to negotiate with. He's a liar who doesn't respect the agreements his country signed.
Gitlab's list of where they have professional employment operations is https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/people-group/employment-so... - along with the "who they work with."

It is a much shorter list than "anywhere" and many of those employers of record will have their own constraints on if you can work in another country while using them as a service. For example, if you're working out of Brazil, then the hiring partner is Remote.com but then if one heads over to Chile, then its Global Upside. If its Spain, then its Remote.com again, but its questionable if you could head over to Portugal to work.

The "work anywhere" becomes complicated once a company is on the hook for taxes and work visas.
Yeah that toggle in newer distros is managed by power-profiles-daemon which ships with modern versions of Gnome. From what I've read you're better off only running one of these power management apps as they can conflict with eachother.

Sounds like you're getting totally fine battery life though so I wouldn't stress about it!

I'm about to give Fedora a whirl. Hoping I can get close to your numbers.
>But mongol-typed are not actually dark skinned, they were in fact often very pale in the past, and tbf he also wrote "degraded and repulsive versions of"

True, but Star Trek's treatment of the original Klingons was much the same, based on a vague archetype of "swarthy" Eastern "barbarians" like the Khanate or stereotypes of the Japanese during WW2. We're talking about broad-brush stereotypes here. There was no non-racist reason to make the Klingons dark-skinned to begin with. As has been mentioned, the Romulans were also a villain species and they were white (as a plot point, they looked exactly like Vulcans because they were the same species. The Klingons were dark-skinned because in Western culture dark skin is visual shorthand for "savage."

And portraying "degraded and repulsive" versions of a specific human race is the literal definition of a racist caricature. Especially if the point is to make them evil.

>Same way I could say, as Italian, that "Jersey Shore" protagonists are a degraded and repulsive versions of Italians.

... if literally every Italian in the show was portrayed that way, and was canonically in the Mafia. And the protagonists were all non-Italians. And when people were corrupted by evil, they turned more Italian.
The video mentions that the editor running in one of the windows is Emacs. Since the video is from 1988, this would be Emacs about version 18.50¹, which did, IIRC, have split-window functionality. So they had, in the video, another, running, (albeit text-only) implementation of tiling windows.

> What’s your strategy for finding clients, if you don’t mind me asking?

Referrals from existing clients, HN monthly threads.

$10k/week, pre-paid monthly. I don't do hourly because I don't work hourly. You're paying for my skills and expertise not the geo coordinates of the chair I am sitting in for however long I am working. I charge accordingly.

The price is for your slot in my workload and that is it. Need maintenance then you pay me weekly for any maintenance work.
If the tech allows making the display see-through on a per pixel basis, they could simulate seeing the full display as a monitor hanging a meter before your eyes. Turn your head, and the virtual monitor would move out of view, with the outside world showing up.
Heard an ad for a cybersecurity company yesterday and this same thought crossed my mind - how much business (and expertise) is generated to prevent cyber crime? Since the capital companies spend on preventing fraud likely far outweighs what the criminals actually earn, it could easily stand the cyber crime is a net positive for society given the job creation and technical know-how needed to fill those jobs.
The moratorium was wrong. If the government wanted to keep people in houses it should have paid their rents
A recent story linked on HN that sadly didn't get much attention was that companies are in a crisis of not knowing what they can do to stop their employees from quitting. Glib answers like "pay them more" and "treat them better" aren't helpful because many of these are high paid jobs and everyone has a difference of opinion on what it means to be treated well (even if most will agree that being punched in the face all day is bad). Companies cannot get employees to tell them what they want. Exit interviews are mostly fruitless, surveys are avoided because workers don't believe they're truly anonymous, outside surveys have the same problem since the survey company is being paid by the employer.

How can a company get honest feedback from their employees without the employees fearing reprisals? A union is one way of doing it since employees (usually) trust their union to take their grievances to the employer with little risk to the employees as individuals or as a group. There was a case a few years ago where a European company opened a factory in the right-to-work state and wanted its workers in a union because that's how it maintained employee relations in their home country. They were confused by the hostility towards unions in that state, both by workers and by the government. IIRC, it was semi-skilled manufacturing so exploiting the workers would be self-defeating if they kept leaving for other jobs.
I have a friend who does this for productivity reasons. When all you need is a shell to write code in, a phone actually does extremely well because you can project it to your TV and there's just less opportunities for distraction compared to a full desktop PC where there's the temptation to aimlessly browse the web or play video games.
What if those journalists had instead come out and said that miners are not smart enough to code. They would have gotten even more hate probably by the very same people. So you lose either way.

Any idea of how large these lands were, area-wise?
Maybe in the past your explanation was true. Looking particularly at Munich I must admit, it’s less and less welcoming city. 15 years ago it was doable to find a room or flat in the range 300-400€. Now double that with almost unchanged salaries. Getting doctor’s appointment with public health insurance is currently getting harder and harder. Now add skyrocketing energy prices, that will crush low income families. I just don’t see the Happy End in any scenario.
