AM4 APUs are totally different from their CPU brethren and are much better behaved in this area, because they’re socketed versions of the mobile chips.
It varies from state to state but usually the deciding factor is the motor. No motor? It's a bike, no matter how many wheels it has.

Amusingly enough many of the laws are old enough that they are written with "cc" mentioned, below 60cc is a "moped" above is a "motorcycle". Those rules will have to be updated to account for various traction devices.
This skillset is literally the poster child of HN.

> Yes, I know my skillset is quite generic - heavily JS/Node/React based, with a few years of experience in Python and very light knowledge of some lower level languages (had some passing interest in Go, Rust, no commercial experience to back it up).

Don’t be discouraged, lots of successful places are using this for good reason.

It’s a perfectly valid and respectable way to make a career.
If you aren't that close, you can have hybrid transportation. Take a bike to a bus or train.

Better zoning would help too.
Like the other commenters have written here, art is a lot more fluid than you give it credit for.

Professional illustrators will always have work, but their work may be in a different shape than current one, relying on AI as an additional tool to generate images for their clients. In any case, a big part of the work for illustrators do is in refining the vision of their client and exploring the space of art this way. This is as much of an issue with the current AIs, you need to ask for something very specific to get a good looking image. Iterating to produce a quality image can take hours.

As for art more broadly, it is much greater than visual art. It will be interesting to see the new ways people find to express themselves with these new tools.
"the only thing {the threat of} net neutrality"

Work in transportation. We refer to them as EDI and API and often phrase it "We can do EDI or API.". So we don't think of them as the same thing. Goals are the same most of the time, but I never really think of EDI as AN API.

But the whole debate is a little pedantic for me. Just need to get it working ...

Nobody is invaluable. Every person and every product can be replaced, at a cost.

What "invaluable" really means is "a cost the company doesn't currently want to incur". That only works as leverage for as long as the company would rather acquiesce to the employee than incur the cost, and the employee doesn't generally know where the line in the sand is.

I think people tend to see themselves as invaluable when they really aren't. I've seen "invaluable" people quit or get fired, and it causes a rough patch, but the business recovers. Someone else learns, or the business decides they can do the same thing another way or decides that that system isn't actually as important as they thought.

> 1.) learn how to sell that dirty work and connect it back to the successes your high-growth company enjoyed in the marketplace

This is an incredible amount easier to do with flashy work. If someone leads a revenue-generating product, they can say "I lead this project that created $XM in new revenue". If someone made on-call less crappy, it's hard to quantify that. "We got 70% less on-call pages" is neat, but not really something the business cares about in isolation. You'd have to quantify higher stability on the product leading to not losing revenue, or reducing turnover to have a comparable metric.

Doing dirty work is appealing to other engineers, but it's a cost center for the business. They'd happily have a crappy on-call rotation unless you can demonstrate some kind of financial downside to it.

Our city converts street lanes into bike only lanes like crazy. All under the guise of keeping carbon emissions down. With the result that still no one is using the bike lanes and the traffic is now more condensed and way worse on the remaining car lanes.

Bikes sound so good if you live somewhere with an eternal summer (or spring) and where it never rains or snows or gets below 20 C.
> I'll believe it when I see it.

I'll second that.

Hell. Even ATMs haven't automated bank tellers yet. Nor has Kindle replaced physical books.
My thinking was that this would be good for faster/easier posting. E.g.: someone making a travel blog for friends and family who wants to post from their phone on the train to the next city, or someone who wants to quickly share or save links that they run across "in the wild". I agree that for someone posting long-form content there's no benefit over working in an editor.
How is async/await a misfeature in Go?

I can see the problem in js with 'function color' but everything in Go are goroutines not just some.
One advantage of something machine-readable, like a QR code, would be to incorporate additional information (more than could be easily consumed by a human).

For example, a speed limit sign could include the name of the road it controls, which would help reduce instances of cars suddenly slowing to 35 mph on the freeway when passing a sign on the frontage road.

It might also be useful for cases of (this is US-centric) yellow "advisory" speeds posted for, e.g., sharp curves. The machine-readable aspect might indicate how long the advisory speed applies (next 1000 ft) and why (sharp curve, hidden intersection, etc.)
There are also lots of options for disabled folks that aren't all the way to a car. My wife and I bike around our city daily, and there are plenty of disabled folks zooming around on all manner of mobility devices, in the bike lane, on sidewalks, at similar speeds to bikes. I'd argue that making a city more bike friendly also makes it more friendly to these types of mobility devices as well. It seems that these two things, bike friendliness and disabled friendliness have the same needs of our infrastructure.
I believe this was used by Charlie Brooker to build that interactive episode of “Black Mirror”.
And yet ~70% of Japanese households own cars.
I'm clearly not opposed to special accommodations for people who need vans and other special transport. I don't think it's a good argument for the status quo though. It's possible to restrict most private vehicles from a city center and still allow things like vans the disabled. Obviously there is tension here around pedestrian only streets, but making sidewalks more accessible to electric wheelchairs seems very doable.
Cycling in Amsterdam often involves eye contact between cyclists and drivers at busy junctions that don't have lights. I don't think self driving cars would be very good with that subtlety.

The main safety feature for cyclists in Amsterdam, is that almost every driver is also a cyclist. They know what cyclists are going to do and how much room they need.
and then there's the World Trade Center
Tornado is nice because you can stay entirely within the Ethereum blockchain- no need to involve a centralized entity like an exchange to facilitate this.

It's also arguably more private than monero. Tornado uses zk math instead of coinjoin; tornado also sticks to only a few values (1 eth, 10 eth, 100 eth...) which minimizes traceability
There is probably no point in arguing this further, though I appreciate your input and the manor in which you have given it.

The thing for me is no one benefits from the lack of commitment to some way of working (and I mean a company commitment to something isn't a cast iron guarantee either). It's not like saying we're an in office company we expect you here 5 days a week; for me that would be a massive disadvantage. However, I can see that for other people that would suit them perfectly and might well have lots of advantages in terms of social life and opportunity to learn from those you work with. If a companies stance was that we are working from the office but reserve the right to work fully remote at some unidentifiable point in the future that would similarly disadvantage those people who seek out in office jobs.

Scope and Extent
This article might have a point but it's also written to be flamebait.
Right but the argument is that it’s not worth investing a lot of dedicated space for a mode of transportation that’s only usable for part of the year, by a subset of the population, and actually utilized by a so few people that you could argue that nobody bikes and after rounding be correct.

My city is approaching it differently, instead of bike lanes they are just adding significantly more sidewalk and marking the left side as where bikes should ride. The sidewalk can be fully utilized by everyone all of the time. During big crowded events it’s just sidewalk.
Yes, but that's because you know when deep blue is playing chess. The recent accusations that are rocking the chess world are that one of the champions may be cheating. If we get to a point where cheating can't be detected, that may do quite a lot of damage to the game.

I tend to think that this is the one thing that would bring a v2.0. Compile time, startup time, binary building, and native code caching improvements I think take the big priority here (and I describe elsewhere in this thread how those are really all one technical issue), but when that's completed I do think formalizing a traits interface will be the next major semantic change to the language. It could be a v1.x if it does not require a breaking change to the language's semantics, but it's hard (for me at least) to see how to nicely incorporate trait definitions and required dispatches without making a single breaking change.
We need "grand theft auto" [1] type law enforcement support for bikes. Theft is a huge problem and the reason why most expensive bikes are mainly for exercise/racing.

Even in low-crime areas, it's inadvisable to ride, say a $1-2k bike without extensive locks.

+1. Hardly ever have seen a pickup in germany. Most trade companies will use vans.
Having lived and traveled all over Europe without a car, I can say with confidence that urban environments of a wide range of density are incredibly well-served by public transit, pedestrian routes, and bikes. Cars are necessary in lots of cases, but the vast majority of day-to-day activity that requires a car for me here in the US would have been silly to use a car for in Europe.
That's not a fair interpretation. Most people only want to send text for the most part, but are forced to send HTML via client defaults.
And it's way easier and economical to store and swap out bike tires for winter/summer than it is to do the same for cars.
> because HN's community has continually proven incapable of having discussions like this without it turning into a shouting match

Maybe, but that itself (just like downvote brigading) is a technique used to suppress discussion. Become so "outraged" when others simply state their opinion to make normal discussion impossible.

That is an area in which I don't think HN moderation does a good job. They blame people who merely state a controversial opinion for "initiating a flamewar" instead of standing firm against the angry mob and putting emphasis on the importance of keeping a high standard for discussion. Simply being outraged is quite diagonal to curiosity, the core value of HN.

If you have a circuit in your house that trips for “no reason” this is partially why.

With a steady load you can run a circuit breaker past the rated amperage on the breaker. But look at it funny and it will pop.

The most obvious case of this was when I knew someone who would plug a vacuum into a different circuit and blow a breaker. Just a little noise on the wires and click.
There's a subset of people who are very anti-car and not actually very pro-bike/transit and you can find them by seeing if they rant and rage against motorcycles as well.

Are you sure you're not confusing zero-cost with almost zero-cost? Even zerolog talks about negligible costs after most aggressive optimizations, not zero: https://github.com/obsidiandynamics/zerolog

If you're just using constants in your code to set logging level, AOT compilation can do exactly the same optimizations.
"The chief selling point of Tornado Cash is money laundering, which is in and of itself a crime in both the US and Netherlands."

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of US law with regard to money laundering. Obfuscating the source of funds, by itself, is not money laundering. Money laundering requires a "predicate offense" - the money that is being laundered must be proven to have had an illicit source. Further, the entity accused of doing the "laundering" also must know that the source of funds is illicit before doing it. Intent to promote the carrying on of "specified unlawful activity" must also be proven in order for a money laundering conviction to occur. You can read the entire statute here [1].

Therefore, the "chief selling point" cannot be money laundering, at least under US law, because the contracts were deployed with no prior knowledge of how or by whom they would be used. One cannot form intent without prior knowledge. The chief selling point was anonymity, not money laundering, which has a highly specific legal meaning.

The former is going to be literally true on the grounds that climate change is increasing chaos in the system, hence unpredictability increases strikingly.

I'm not sure this happens on the time scale of 'app got acquired', though. It's absolutely going to increase year by year, and if you'd got used to how it was three years ago and didn't notice some of the outlier events, you might be shocked at the new normal.

Climate change absolutely will cause problems with any conceivable forecasting model because you can't encapsulate chaos, only map its expected potential outcomes: and the nasty truth is that energy is fed into the system, those potential outcomes blow up exponentially. Not even slightly linear. So that's what we're seeing.
I work at a supply chain company that deals with both APIs and EDI and the product people view EDI as a crappier version of an API, which is one of those statements that is so meaningless that it's not even wrong.
I do not think that there is any psychological reason, because I was very surprised by this, as it was contrary to my expectations.

However you are right that it is chewier than commercial bread and I have also thought that this may be an additional explanation. I believe that the longer chewing time contributes to the satiation effect, but it cannot explain all of it, as I remain satiated for many hours, and I do not believe that the extra chewing can have a lasting effect.

In any case the fact that most modern food requires much less chewing than traditional food is indeed a likely contributory factor to the tendency of eating more at a meal than it was common for the previous generations.
It's not possible to measure a counterfactual where teams at a given company just suddenly become diverse. But, it is pretty well known that there are some advantages to diversity in the workplace. Take, for instance, this reasonably well source article which lists 10 advantages: https://www.talentlyft.com/en/blog/article/244/top-10-benefi...

Oh, and it's not just white men. East Asians and those from the Indian subcontinent are also well represented in tech (perhaps over represented -- I'm not sure).
This is slowly changing IMO - I'm seeing concern over energy use even on forums discussing high end hardware builds as cost of energy mounts in Europe. Previously no one really ever mentioned this other than to laugh at poor thermals.

If some of Nvidia's next generation 4xxx series GPUs are close to 1000w draw as many rumors suggest, the total draw of a high spec Intel/Nvidia system is going to probably have similar running costs to an electric space heater when playing demanding games. The existing 3090ti is already a 500w part, which not so long ago was enough to power a whole system in addition to the GPU.
20 bytes? Wouldn't that be about 2 bytes per image?
Does TornadoCash still need people to run it? Or is it just contracts in the Etherium blockchain?
That depends on whether or not their contract defines core hours. Frankly, if you're being made to work like an hourly compensated employee, then you should demand to enjoy the benefits that entails, like OT, or switch to an employer who isn't so willing to abuse you.
How to Invest in China's Cloud
Is this sarcasm, or do you think this is somehow impressive?
I see articles like this in my RSS reader, which is immune to flagging, and I play a little game where I guess whether or not it will be flagged by the time I read it.
Yeah. Linked In dragged me through four rounds of interviews and a coding test.

To their credit, they did want to make an offer. I am just not, and never will be good management material. I politely suggested they mention such things on the job posting. I did consider that maybe I had somehow not met their expectations, but I asked (because, well, I do that sort of thing) and was assured that was not the case.

So, maybe? I dunno if it was age related, but I know what I'm good at, what I can be competent at (if needed) and I know those areas where the ship must be sinking if you're asking me. At this rate, and for having a few decades of experience, it rather seems like what would (should?) have been the ones to replace us might end up not actually being able (or interested) in doing so. Might end up being like those old Cobol programmers being pulled out of the nursing homes for the 2000 panic.
Is it really the cars that are the problem - or just a high concentration of particles in the air from having so many people and things jammed in a tight space?

Dense cities themselves are the real problem. I have started carrying portable air sensors around (they are surprisingly cheap and measure a wide variety of things from particles to VOCs and CO2) and simply not being in or near a large city dramatically improves air quality. But hey, lump everything in and bash cars while you are at it - double bonus :p
You have convinced me quite thoroughly that you have not availed yourself much of what modern art has on offer.

If I am right, it would behoove you to not speak so surely of that which you do not know or care to understand.
>there are relatively few illustration problem you could have where DALL-E/SD/... would help more than searching for an existing image

This is probably true if you want a single image, but if you want many images that look consistent with each other then google images will be little help. Stable diffusion with textual inversion can just about do it though. I would imagine in a few years it will be able to do that better than it can currently generate a single image.

You can actually operate and drive a car on private property without a license in Texas. In fact in Texas you can even drive a car drunk if it's on private property not open to the public, like a fenced off private parking lot.

Using your analogy, an instance of TC on private property would not be licensed.

I bike to work and back every day in a USDA 7b zone (the mean average annual extreme minimum temperature is -15 to -12.2 C).

I think the range of comfortable ambient temperatures is quite a bit wider if you're willing to invest money in proper clothing (I justify it by "saving" on gas, car ownership, etc.).

At 0C with decent gloves, you're fine. At -10C, good gloves and headwear are essential, but the ride is still pretty pleasant.

IME, moisture is a bigger issue than temperature. It's the biggest cause for me not biking around town. Biking in (heavy) rain or snow requires more (and more expensive) of mental and physical prep work, and more regular maintenance, and some days I just don't want to put up with it.

On the other points, I mostly agree, although discreetly-accessible showers on both ends of the journey go a long away towards mitigating social status.
two years and 3 months
That's not what I said. I specifically said that AMD and Intel have been shipping CPUs with higher TDPs (stock!) for a long time. Overclockers have been going even further.

AMD's Threadripper PRO CPUs come with up to 280W TDPs.

It's really not a problem with modern air coolers and not a problem at all for people running liquid coolers.

A 253W boost TDP isn't really a big deal any more. There are plenty of smaller CPUs for people who don't want such high overheads.

Some of Intel's new parts can be limited to 35W and still outperform a Ryzen 7 5800X: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-13700t-raptor-lake-a...

There's a lot of "sky is falling" over these numbers, but it's a non-issue for the enthusiast builds these are targeted at. Nobody is forced to put a 253W CPU into their machine, but it's great that the vendors are making them available for those who want them.
> Make the city better for bike doesn’t mean making it hell for cars.

It doesn’t, but it does mean that you can’t dedicate 100% of street space and 75% of space for businesses to cars. And some drivers seem to interpret losing any sliver of their dominance over the streets as “hell for cars,” making this a tough battle.
Are our cities designed the way they are because people are unfit for better forms of transit, or are people unfit for better forms of transit because of the way our cities designed?

Is your contention seriously that we're incapable of improving anything because design decisions that have been made in the past are now unchangeable? Nothing must ever change after it is built for the first time? It's impossible to nudge people towards better transit possibilities incrementally through more thoughtful design? What a ridiculous take.
