The compute module is specially made for companies to integrate into products. Around the time they introduced the first compute module years ago they split Raspberry Pi into a formal company (with CEO etc) and a non profit charity/foundation. You've seen a lot of what the foundation has done but there's also a profit seeking company behind Raspberry Pi too.

Although obvious, I think it’s worth mentioning plenty of great examples of this even beyond the modern media. For example, “less than 1% of people become addicted to OxyContin” (Purdue Pharma) or “AIDS was created by the CIA” (Da Baby, also the KGB), or “Thomas Jefferson had a child with Sally Hemmings” (James Callender).

You can likely find similar stories carved into Sumerian tablets somewhere.

I do think it’s gotten worse in some areas, but the identification of the issue as a modern product of the Internet echo chamber also seems a bit misleading, as it might cause someone to misidentify the problem as a uniquely modern one that we could fix with changes to rules of publishing platforms alone. I’m not sure that the echo chambers in the modern media are worse than they were in Europe during the Hundred Years’ War, for example.
They make him sound like a mediocre professor, but it sounds like grading a class of students objectively which were setup to fail by a pandemic is what ultimately did him in.

It’s clear to me what the implications are. A generation of students won’t understand what they’re doing and they will be shoved through the system anyways because of some high minded sentiments about failing students not being the best way to ensure rigor.
That's a good qualification - if you aren't having to worry about these maths, you aren't doing high volume.
My father was a farmer. Pretty stressful business in real life - not fun when your ostriches get bird flu. But a farm is certainly a beautiful break from city life.
The problem is that the data wasn't on their servers, it was just flagged to go to Apple's servers.

And once you're scanning files with one flag set, nothing technologically prevents the scanning of files without that flag being set. And to quote myself from the Google Stadia brouhaha - "companies lie in PR statements" - so I have no reason to trust Apple's statement that they would never scan other files.
But what if there's a ton of criticism?
> I don't want independence and I have no use for power.

I used to think like this, it's easy to dismiss, "I want power" sounds like something a maniac would say. I don't believe you truly don't want independence, maybe less, but that still sounds like a real issue.

> I think that in the past loads of people lived like this;

> servants lived almost like children

That's absolutely not true, I'm no history buff, but servants had all sorts of pressure and responsibility put on them. Their tasks may have been menial in skill, but they were damn well complicated. Imagine bringing the wrong drink or spilling a glass of wine in front of the king, off with your head. They seem like children to us because life is so much more complex, we didn't die at 30.

> already have a therapist, but so far he hasn't been able to turn me into a man

Maybe I've mistaken your casual wording, but it's not their job to turn you into anything, they're supposed to at the very least analyze. Depending on their practice, they might give concrete guidance.

If you want to be some wealthy old mans pet, that's fine by me, but I don't believe you don't want independence, no one doesn't. I think you're just overwhelmed by the mundane obstacles we all need to pass to earn it.

For example:

>I just want to focus on having fun and spending time with good people without managing every single minor aspect of my life and having responsibility over stuff I don't care about

That's the bare minimum of reality, we've all got those things, even Kim Kardashian.

Maybe your job is too complicated and demanding? There's a place you can reduce your responsibility, but it doesn't have to be so black and white.

I've been working for over 9 years on mostly web application front and backends.
I'm looking to relocate within the EU (The Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden or Norway) in the next few months.
What I found with my kids was that the sequence is more important than the time. Their bedtime routine has been pretty much the same for the last ten years, only the timing has changed.
I had a search because I didn't believe that any states required employers to offer paid family leave. Some research revealed that the situation is somehow both better than I thought, and also seemingly much worse than I imagined:

https://www.ncsl.org/research/labor-and-employment/state-fam...

https://www.zippia.com/advice/average-paid-maternity-leave/

There are a few North Korea comparisons in here that I think are tongue-in-cheek but two statistics jumped out at me:

(1) 1/3 of new mothers take little to no time off after [...] new child and instead opt to return to work as soon as they’re able

(2) The highest rates of paid family leave across any segment or industry appear to be in the 30% range. So only 30% of the jobs most likely to offer this benefit actually do.
Or God forbid a Tannenbaum situation, where you actually did create a world-changing tool and licensed it to the wrong people in a moment of confused passion...
>In 2020, there were 861 deaths total, at a rate of 23.8 per 100k births.

Interesting. According to https://www.statista.com/statistics/241572/death-rate-by-age...

Death rate by age and sex
Male Female
15-24 99.7 38.4
25-34 177 78.9
35-44 257 141.6

...that would look like a death rate of 258.9 per 100k for women aged 15-44. Using the US population as 331,893,000 that works out to be about 859,272 deaths of women in that 15-44 age group. Or about 0.1% of deaths related to maternity.
Calling them whiners is too harsh even if it’s technically correct. This was a class setup to fail by COVID. If they took no action, they were going to be crushed when in normal circumstances they would have succeeded.
From the article:

> A death is considered preventable if the committee determines that there was at least some chance of the death being averted by one or more reasonable changes to patient, community, provider, facility, and/or systems factors. MMRIA allows MMRCs to document preventability decisions in two ways: (1) determining preventability as a yes or no, and/or 2) determining the chance to alter the outcome by using a scale that indicates no chance, some chance, or good chance. Any death with a yes response or a response that there was some chance or a good chance to alter the outcome was considered preventable. Deaths with a no response or no chance were considered not preventable.
There are amenable and non-amenable medical errors.

The above article is describing amenable medical errors. I don’t want to make assumptions about how your sister’s death would be classified.

However, I am so sorry for your loss, which is a tragedy. We need to do better, as this should not be happening.

I wouldn’t really say it’s a big implementation. I just use a piece of paper and denote a line to each 30 mins of the work day.

So it might look like:

10: meeting

1030: bug fixing

11: bug fixing

1130: bug fixing

12: run

1230: run

1: lunch

130: feature work

2: feature work

230: meeting

3: feature work

330: feature work

4: plan next week

The above was my entry from last Friday, where I had a late start to the day.

At the start of my day I had kept the 12-2:30 block fairly empty (I knew some form of working out + lunch would show up, and I had wanted to do some feature work that day, but I didn’t know if any other meetings would pop up. They didn’t, so it worked great!)

I basically fill in meetings first, then work around them to put in the work I want to focus on for the day. The main caveat is I don’t focus on anything else for this blocks, and unless I’m in incredible flow and the task is definitely important, I always make sure I stop at the end of the block time (the whole “we will fill up whatever time we allot ourselves” theory).
Thanks FollowingTheDao, this guy indeed needed the tough love that you provided. Their certainly was "Disability Porn" in his post. I suppose you get a free pass because you are disabled yourself, god forbid if a able bodied person said it.
Coincidentally I was browsing for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B yesterday. They are ranging anywhere from $100 to $350 in my country. That's a big nope.

> if it was legal to build products around PS4's reuse you can bet your ass a sizeable amount of PS5 users would love to make use of their old hardware

The fact that people aren’t already doing so with regular general purpose computers seems to entirely discredit this theory, no?
I'd rather have a hard time finding a pi then have them go out of business.

Basically if this is survival mode during the chip shortage, I hope they can do everything possible to make it through this in good shape.

Also I have enough pi's for my needs already, I'd love to build a cluster but IMO cluster projects should be of the lowest priority customers.
Any suggestions for a generic cheap but good ITX running Linux from a vendor I could use for a small home server? I have two System76 Meerkats which I love (one for personal, one for work) but I don't want to fork out that much money for a home server to host things like PiHole and VaultWarden. I looked around last month for a RPi but as this article says they aren't to be found.
This URL also has a play button that does not require DRM (DRM decoding API I'm guessing?). When I click on the original URL I get "No DRM" but with this URL it works fine for me.
So the problem is, once you detect a user is running arbitrary unsigned code on their system, how do you differentiate between them using that capability for cheating or running the world's most convoluted SSH server? Once the system is compromised, you don't really know what the user is doing, and as such any network traffic cannot really be trusted.
> "A motivation would be to increase the likelihood of one's perceptions of what's going on aligning with what is actually going on" -- this only works if you assume that my perception is not already aligned with what is actually going on.

Well, unless you have a direct connection of some sort with God / The Oracle / The Universe, I suspect that you are in the same boat as the rest of us: an instance of consciousness that runs on the brain, whose access to "reality" is via your senses, and subject to some substantial subset of the various imperfections that science/psychology have documented over the years.

> Your conclusion is that I should consider whether I am being childish in claiming that it is childish for someone to support Trump.

More precisely, I said: "I think it's worth considering...."

> When I asked you why you would think this you said that it is because it would increase the likelihood of my perception being aligned with reality.

More precisely, I said: "A motivation would be to increase the likelihood....".

I also noted: "which is what Trump supporters are often criticized for", because of the potentially delicious irony (in that you were criticizing the cognitive capabilities of Trump supporters, yet when someone dares to challenge you, you deny any flaw, confidently, and respond with objectively inaccurate counter-accusations).

I also noted: "Whether this qualifies for being worth it is largely (but not necessarily entirely) a subjective matter."

From my perspective, you are describing what has happened as if I am making confident statements of fact, whereas the actual text I have written (shared/documented reality) demonstrates otherwise....which I think lends credence to the possibility that your take on reality is not actually perfect.

> So you are starting with the assumption that my perception is not aligned with reality and then concluding that I should reconsider it. So your premise is that I am wrong and therefore you conclude that I should reconsider. That is what it means to beg the question.

But only if one's premises are correct! (Yours are not.)

Further, marvel at how many unforced (I speculate) errors you've made - for extra effect: consider what percentage of the things you've said contain error.
True. What stops it from analyzing other files on your phone? A policy block. It's simple to change policies (or be forced to change policies).

It is always good to see control theory related posts on HN. (:

I've both BsC and MsC in control and heavily used video lectures of Brian, I am probably one of his first patrons. His lecturing skills are amazing. If you interested about the topic I also suggest to look at 'Steve Brunton' YouTube channel. He is also a legendary teacher.

If you want to talk anything about control theory, please feel free to contact me.
You can't reach middle ground if you have religious fanatics who feel righteous above everybody else and keep pushing their values unto all. This is valid in any religion, and can be currently seen causing havoc among christians and muslims alike.

They can shield themselves by extremist interpretations of 'word of god' (which takes some mental gymnastics since his are, if at all, only 10 commandments and thats it, rest is just human-made stories). Funnily most of those folks fail with following even those 10 basic rules, but thats another topic.

We went through this decades ago in Europe and largely emerged as better, more democratic and freer societies. Those times are regarded as dark primitive times when looking back, when a lot of trauma was done and a lot of regretful actions happened.
I always found it uber cumbersome to deal with apache to setup different webservers with different domains and different stacks (php, golang, node, etc.) on a linux server.

I’ve been doing it for more than 10 years and I still hate it and I’m still quite lost in the commands I need to run, the folders and files and cfgs I need to maintain.

Am I just a linux noob and this is completely normal user experience?
I, for one, would love to see the existing incumbents fail, and a mad scramble by upstarts to do this better. This could be done way, way, way better, and I would love to see what happened if the network effect got out of the way of that happening.
BTW, a highly disturbed sleep like he is describing is a common sign of burnout/depression/anxiety disorder. Do not ignore it! There are drugs and therapy, it is worth it. It is double worth it if you have the money to stay unemployed or have other ways of getting some extended rest, at least 3 months. BTW, there is even some chemical signalling pathway explanation for that connection. Or maybe it is hypothesized? IDK, it's above my knowledge level. But the correlation surely is real and strong.
> Everyone is clamouring for a high quality Linux laptop and instead they're using subpar Clevo laptops

Making a laptop from the ground up is hard. They do plan to do their own laptop but that's a very hard thing to do, specially doing it with profit. That is a move that could be company ending.

> creating a new distro (with a bad case of NIH) that no one asked for

I didn't ask for a lot of things that I like. And PopOS is great.
Also, mental health conditions and cardiomyopathy are "preventable"? Their definition of Preventability stretches credibility- lowering the risk is different from preventing something.

"A death is considered preventable if the committee determines that there was at least some chance of the death being averted by one or more reasonable changes to patient, community, provider, facility, and/or systems factors."
It’s been a few years since I’ve ran Android but I remember it was possible to have silky smooth animations via custom ROMs. The problem was a lot of OEMs slapped crap loads of bloat on an underpowered handset.

This might not be the case any more, it’s been years since I’ve ran Android, but there once was a time when running cyanagenmod (I think it was called) on a HTC handset gave you a better experience than iOS on an iPhone.

It seems that Pine64 has good boards that would be useful for many tasks performed by PIs, at a pretty good price. They say they have them all in stock, I'm probably going to pull the trigger as I don't need any raspberry-specific shields.

"The experience was physically taxing, he was diagnosed with tendonitis after moving hundreds of boxes a day, but it pulled him out of his depression and helped him gain perspective and a deeper sense of meaning".......

I have mixed feelings about this. What this has proven is working at amazon warehouse sucks, and is not sustainable.

I've had many physical shitty jobs in my 20's. Then, I had some health issue and could no longer keep doing that to my body, so I went back to school and got a CS degree.

I sometimes get depressed and miss physical work, but then I remember how shit it was and how an injury would prevent me from working. As a dev I think I'm going to be able to earn money as long as I'm alive and have a functioning brain.

I guess once you have enough money then maybe someone might find that work fun? Obviously it helped the writer with depression. However, if he ever gets permanently hurt and it affects his daily life I have a feeling depression will come back in full swing. Office work is much much safer.

There are ways to help people through tech and have much bigger affect then moving boxes for a shitty company.

Edit: What helps my depression is connecting with people outside of work, helping people in my community, doing projects around my house and spending time with my son. Additionally, I try to make good choices when spending my money and limit my spending on stuff I don't need, as I dislike excessive spending.

Edit2: Some great comments below. This is very much poverty/shit job tourism, which the writer can escape at any moment. This is some BlackMirror type of content. Guy makes it big in tech, retires, now works shit job people are trying to escape to cure his depression. He then writes about it on a blog. Now, other non-aware devs might be reading it contemplating leaving their jobs to do a REAL job.
> loop dances from the 70's and 80's

Thanks a lot for the divide and conquer approach.
Fun looking loops from the 70s & 80s seems like a great start, considering they are simpler for a beginner.

Edit for posterity:-
In case anyone is looking for a good intro for the 70s/80s loops, i liked this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awPecmtraXc
Average hides things. Talk about medians AND averages: the former doesn't change if Jeff Bezos enter the room. The later will.

Also talk about ajusted PPP, to account for higher or lower local costs (and accounting shenanigans like double irish with dutch sandwich)

Well, the video does not show the ppl actually designing the blueprint of the machine and doing the R&D, the real brains... we are showed mostly assembly workers (all above averagely skilled), customer service operators, etc.

I was surprised to agree with most of what ASML bosses said, and I would have given exactly the same answer than the assembly operator, namely not providing any timeline... because it is complete garbage to do so on so much complex machines, not to mention the machine is a prototype, then the first one. I may have answered "yesterday".

But noway they will make me use a doz computer, or an android phone...

I am _seriously_ curious on how they want to get their pitch below 7nm with a 13.6nm EUV light. Do they plan to go massive multi-patterning with sub-nm xray positioning? For below 7nm pitch, what would they use: xray light? electron/ion beams? pattern printing? And what about the purity of the wafer dopped silicon for smaller features? xray light: what materials to use?? Quantum interference tricks?

I wonder how many silicon atoms from a wafer crystal we have on a 1nm row...

All that is to get chips which consume less energy, get faster telecom, play magnificient games, store more in flash ram.
What would be a correct handling of the situation? If organic chemistry is as unimportant to medicine as claimed, and you had a bunch of students whose education was spoilt by a pandemic, and a professor who wants to flunk a bunch of them out, what to do?

Sounds like the administration was in a tough spot to me.
They were annoyingly supply constrained the first 2 years iirc. And the last 1.5 years or so. But for a long stretch in the middle there (like 2014-2021), not so much.
That study seems pretty focused on serotonin. I guess you're suggesting that most of the science tries to link depression to serotonin?
Can we agree that words have meanings?
No, I mean the fact that some bored CIA paper–pusher is copying down tweets and putting it into a secret report about these nefarious journalists.
And 9/11 could be observed to be pro-Al-Qaeda. Even if theres was an "editorial choice" involved, records of terroristic acts aren't obscene. This is a 1A issue.

Graduated in 07, was working middle office for a bank, economy tanked so I left to go travel in a low cost of living area (Central America) for a bit.

Came back, couldn’t find a job so worked at a grocery store for two years throwing freight.

Honestly kinda loved it. No stress besides the occasional surly coworker, but it felt very peaceful making a customer-ravaged shelf look whole again. Couldn’t afford the low wages now but at the time not sure I would have traded it for much.

I imagine life expectancy in Croatia would be much worse than in US if Croatians were as overweight as Americans are, and used hard drugs or lived on the streets as often. Fortunately, Croatians tend to live much healthier lifestyles than Americans, which results in higher life expectancy, despite available medical care being of worse quality.
