The idea of thread is that it is basically IPv6 over Zigbee, in the form of 6LoWPAN which is an IPv6 stack optimized for low-power devices with an addressing, discovery, and routing mechanism designed to work well on mesh networks like Zigbee.

To some extent, Thread and Matter are direct replacements for Z-wave at different levels of the stack. There are some different pros/cons between the two though. The major advantage of 6LoWPAN is that it shares a lot of the design and implementation with existing network stacks and can be carried directly over IP networks. This is expected to make more complex 6LoWPAN topologies much easier to implement (e.g. 6LoWPAN traffic can be easily forwarded over the internet by a gateway). None of this is really anything that can't be done with Z-wave, but 6LoWPAN makes it easier by having a lot of common design and implementation with ubiquitous IP stacks. Matter itself has the major advantage of being a newer and higher-level design than Z-Wave which should result in more consistent interoperability of a wider range of devices.

Z-wave will probably remain superior for battery-powered sensors into the future, because Thread doesn't allow for the extremely aggressive sleep schedules (e.g. sleep mode for 18 hours at a time between supervisions for security sensors) that Z-Wave does... although we can of course debate how wise it is to only perform supervision every 18 hours, even if UL allows it for burglar alarms.
Huge digression, but why are the headers indented?

> Nordstream 2 is not needed to supply Germany with enough natural gas. It‘s not even open, was never open.

Who said it was enough?? What are you responding to?? Also, it was definitely ready to operate since September 2021, and that's why it was full at the time of the explosions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nord_Stream_2

> German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who had been in favour of the project,[2] suspended its certification on 22 February 2022

> On November 16, 2021, European natural gas prices rose by 17% after Germany's energy regulator suspended approval of the Nord Stream 2

You can blame Putin for a lot of shit, but on this one, it was all Germany's fault.
I think that if I had written the book in the past decade, perhaps Bateman would have been working in Silicon Valley, living in Cupertino with excursions into San Francisco or down to Big Sur to the Post Ranch Inn and palling around with Zuckerberg and dining at the French Laundry, or lunching with Reed Hastings at Manresa in Los Gatos, wearing a Yeezy hoodie and teasing girls on Tinder.

> Hopefully this will replace the blob in the future for Nvidia users.

Seems deeply unlikely, having read the article. quote:

> There are a few things which have changed recently to make the technical landscape a bit more friendly. The first change actually happened a few years ago when NVIDIA launched their Turing class of hardware. Turing GPUs use a new unified firmware blob. The GSP firmware contains everything needed for bringing up the GPU, and once the GSP firmware is loaded, it loads all the other firmwares needed by various pieces of the GPU. If we can get GSP working, this will allow us to use the same firmware as the proprietary NVIDIA drivers and should solve many of the mystery bugs. Dave Airlie gave a very good talk at LPC about this.

I'm not aware of any efforts to replace the firmware blob. This work is based off of a complete blob finally actually possibly being semi useful, and not some stripped-down ultra-minimal open-source blob that barely sets up anything.
Maybe the alternative is to not forbid NSFW words?
That wasn't clear for me at all, reading the README, and I don't grok zig. Nevermind then, no dependencies indeed.

SQLite has a successful consortium and a successful business model, namely: leveraging a proprietary test suite to keep a monopoly on SQLite development that then drives consortium membership and, therefore, consortium success, which then funds the SQLite team.

This has worked for a long time now. It will not work forever. It should work for at least the foreseeable future. If it fails it will be either because a fork somehow overcomes the lack of access to the SQLite proprietary test suite, or because a competitor written in a better programming language arises and quickly gains momentum and usage, and/or because the SQLite Consortium members abandon the project.
Need some advice as a highly skilled but a broke tech guy
I have been coding since I was 12 and I am 40 now. I developed a lot of projects for major finance instutions and from AI to blockchain but could not sell them to one another client and lost interest. I founded a one man cyber security company hacked some banks made some deals worked with them made some money but lost interest after some time. There is nothing I can’t code or hack from bottom to top but I am terrible in founding profitable long term business. And now I am in mid-life crisis and need some advices? Is there any books I can read or people can I talk to?

Thanks.
Closer. But I still get lost when words like “tensor” are used. “structured lists of numbers” really doesn’t seem to explain it usefully.

This reminds me that explaining seemingly complex things in simple terms is one of the most valuable and rarest skills in engineering. Most people just can’t. And often because they no-longer remember what’s not general knowledge. You end up with a recursive Feynmannian “now explain what that means” situation.

This is probably why I admire a whole bunch of engineering YouTubers and other engineering “PR” people for their brilliance at making complex stuff seem very very simple.
Oh, I wasn't clear. I was thinking of the scenario where you regularly use multiple SIMs.

Not of when you port your number.

> If you apply to XYZ Corp in any random city or town, they will have “bachelors in computer science or related degree” in the requirements section of the job posting.

Of course, the purpose of a job advertisement is to compel workers to apply. Companies don't write "bachelors degree" because they expect you to have a bachelors degree, they make note it because if you have a bachelors degree it will pique your interest: "Wait, I have a bachelors degree! I should apply."

One of those fun marketing tricks.
Is that accurate? I thought the moral panic over ADD over-diagnosis has been around since the 90s, where the narrative was too many rambunctious boys were being given medication. "The Ritalin Generation." Are you saying this situation really hasn't improved in nearly three decades?
I get the same feeling - the only thing to me that makes sense is that people with money are afraid that a full scale war might break out as a result of Russia and perhaps China or North Korea etc.

Otherwise when I look around it seems like the restaurants are busy, people are taking holidays (even those who wouldn't usually), and people as a whole seem better off than they've been in a while...

It kind of seems like the view of the economy is being manipulated, because here on the street everything looks hunky dory.
This makes me think there is something in the abstraction that begins to hint at an elegant solution.

What about monkeypatching makes Rails tolerable? Why do "the disadvantages of this approach still far, far outweigh the advantages"?
The interesting information here is that Intel has developed an open-source tool, SYCLomatic, which can be used to migrate existing CUDA codebases to SYCL, the Khronos standard GPU programming language promoted by Intel.

I remember a Twitter client for Android being pulled from the Play Store. Anyone who had already purchased it could still go to Play Store and download it again. But nobody new would find it. One would expect the same to happen for every digital "purchase"
If nobody who came from those links bought anything then the ad spenders would stop buying ads from them. But people click and buy things, hence ad spend continues. So either bots are buying things or a significant number of people are coming through.
In the same regard it will be now hard to move from USB-C to something better due to regulation.
The underlying idea made sense. It just looked incredibly dorky compared to the small unicycle things I see zipping around these days. I remember back in the day people used to joke that only an American would be willing to use those things.

That said it will only worsen the obesity epidemic
This is what always seems to happen when systems only grow and never shrink. Later-added features don't always play well with each other, even when they're added sequentially and it seems like they should. It's technical debt at the specification level (as opposed to code) and I've seen it bite more projects than I can count.

Sometimes you just have to start swinging the axe, or else stop wasting effort and plan migration to an alternative. In this case the alternative seems to be Rust, and no, I'm not a Rust advocate. Far from it, in fact. Personally I find Zig and several others more appealing. However, I also feel that the state of the art will advance more quickly if the C++ programmers migrate to any of those alternatives, and Rust seems pretty far ahead as the direct successor.
Yes! It's maintained by the members of the CSA alliance (which authors Matter). It means that Google, Apple and Home Assistant will all run the same controller code and benefit from bug fixes. Chip manufacturers like Espressif and Nordic maintain implementations for their boards in there too, so anyone can now have the software to produce Matter compatible light bulbs.

There's another layer to this that I haven't seen in any of the comments thus far, and that is the fact that the movie studios are putting the GOOD movies behind the "second paywall." Many popular titles are not available for streaming, and require a "purchase" or "rental," outside of the titles you're getting with your particular services. I have Netflix, Hulu, Prime, HBO, and Disney, and it seems like, about half the time I get a hankering to watch something in particular (instead of just "grazing"), I see that it's not available on any of my services, and it's a rent/buy title. So, yes, I have bought some movies (less than a dozen), and I always buy them from Apple, if I'm having to buy. I've been tempted several times to "buy" the complete set of the Office on Apple TV for $99, but I fear exactly what the OP is talking about: a rug-pull that causes me to lose access to the library.
>the solution to this problem is to have the public democratically elect police just like politicians

Doesn't seem to stop people from electing horrible sheriffs time and again.

>So far this system has successfully prevented most people who should not be politicians from becoming politicians

Is your comment satire?
> On countless sets, watching background actors mouth words at crowded bars, newsrooms and renaissance fairs, I never thought to ask: “Isn’t it going to be weird to see a bunch of silent people at a crowded bar?” I didn’t have much time to wonder because by the time I watched the edit, a sound engineer had gotten a bunch of improvisational voice actors to come in and sync incredibly banal things for them to say.

> Loopers compile their own libraries of heavily guarded research packets detailing the complicated jargon of doctors, lawyers, cops, play-by-play announcers and travelers through the space-time continuum. And they deliver it all without ever referencing a brand name or saying, “Oh my God.” (Airlines, apparently, don’t like any mention of God.)

> Besides providing expertise, loopers save shows a lot of money. As soon as a background actor talks, you have to pay them $1,056 per day (instead of $114 they get as extras or $182 if they’re in SAG), and four talented loopers paid that same $1,056 speaking rate can improvise more than 50 voices. Most loopers who work on a regular basis probably earn about $50,000 a year in day-rate income alone.

> Says Loring: “There’s no part of the industry that is such a well-guarded secret. It’s like a weird mob thing. Snitches get stitches.” When SAG-AFTRA did a panel on looping two years ago, none of the big players attended, and one coordinator warned a looper to drop off the panel. Which they did.

> One often-cited — and frequently ridiculed — fact of life for those in the looping community is that directors, producers, showrunners and production coordinators insist that the production hire someone’s wife, sister, daughter or Pilates instructor as part of the looping team. These “must hires” sometimes don’t have any experience and are told that the job is just to go in and talk.

> But, really, how many people wind up doing the thing they came to Hollywood to do? Loopers get paid to improvise with other actors, contribute to a production and play a lot of characters in every session. And make more money than you would assume.

First, my very point is that when you have only suspicion, you must be extra skeptical of speculation and innuendo, not less.

Second, it is against the HN guidelines to accuse others of not reading the article.

Because, third, I did read that your quoted paragraph. I took it to mean, they believe but are not sure. As in “[he] could not confirm…”

Sadly, I struggle with your other points as they as suffer the same issues as the article. E.g., again, this was not a bicycle training, have the officers been formally charged? was the accused officer the trainer or a participant?

As far as I can see, you're wrong: my position is that the CoE is not deceitful, /u/mmastrac's position is that the CoE is deceitful (and that it's ironic or whatever because the CoE says not to be deceitful). As far as I can see, this is just a good old disagreement where both parties understand and respond to each other's positions.
the impression i have--i'm not sure where i got it from, could even be from the first book itself--is the art of computer programming's mission is to be a useful resource if, a thousand years from now, computer science finds itself starting from scratch. contemporaries can learn from it, but by even just buying copies you increase the odds that the books can be recovered and used in that hypothetical situation.
Here's what you sound like- "Yes obviously they were trained to shoot random bystanders as many times as possible, how else could they be sure that they killed the random bystanders? If they only shot THE RANDOM INNOCENT BYSTANDERS 14 times each instead of 15, there's a dangerous possibility that THE RANDOM INNOCENT BYSTANDERS will not be killed as completely as possible!"

If this is how they're trained then it's bad training! Please kindly fuck all the way off!

I loved visiting paris this summer but was surprised by how archaic and slow the machines were too buy tickets. I also found it amusing how there are at least three different interfaces/machine styles throughout the system. I made the mistake of buying a one way ticket to Versailles.

> But then their fancy policies and guidelines are passed down the chain through less and less trained people until the ultimate task arrives in the hands of perhaps a minimum wage high-school kid with maybe 30 seconds of training.

Nobody (either in this thread or in the case) is attempting to sue minimum wage high school kids for placing homeopathic products on the wrong shelf.

The claim (which is attested by both the case and independent anecdotes in this thread) is that, on a corporate level, both CVS and Walmart have made it their official policy to put homeopathic products in the same aisles and shelves as actual medicine. That kind of corporate policy clearly has made its way through the game of telephone.

In other words: I don't have an opinion in this context on the "right" solution. I only know that the current policy has successfully placed fake medicine on real shelves, and that the lawsuit we're discussing identifies the appropriate defendants (the corporate entities themselves, not a pimply 17 year old).
Your first paragraph describes my reaction as well. The article's overture was a roller coaster.

That should be enough. A block list of prominent trademarked characters might also be possible. That would still leave a huge space of possible ideas.

I guess Google doesn’t have the answer for everything. but it’s pleasant to imagine when we have our coffee together every morning that years before we may have silently enjoyed coffee near each other.

It’s worth mentioning - when officials commit crimes, early press reports usually reflect what the criminal wants.

I Completely missed that. TIL.

"There was disagreement among labor unions at this time about when a holiday celebrating workers should be, with some advocating for continued emphasis of the September march-and-picnic date while others sought the designation of the more politically charged date of May 1. Conservative Democratic President Grover Cleveland was one of those concerned that a labor holiday on May 1 would tend to become a commemoration of the Haymarket affair and would strengthen socialist and anarchist movements that backed the May 1 commemoration around the globe.[19] In 1887, he publicly supported the September Labor Day holiday as a less inflammatory alternative,[20] formally adopting the date as a United States federal holiday through a law that he signed in 1894.[9]"

As it stands now I don't care at all who made my Z-wave switches/bulbs/plugs

This is maybe an optimistic view of Z-wave in my mind... early on quality and reliability problems were nearly universal with Z-wave devices, and today I have a fairly short list of brands I trust (e.g. Zooz) after having been burned by a series of devices with various firmware bugs or just very poor lifespans. The best story I have is the lightbulb that would turn on every time it received an explorer packet, and thus every time my hub at the time ran a heal, which was of course scheduled at 2AM every day and not easy to disable due to the hub's poor firmware. This was years ago, but then there's still a surprising number of Z-wave devices on the market that are just Z-wave, not the poorly named Z-Wave Plus or Z-Wave Plus V2, and thus have significantly inferior network reliability if there are any changes in the environment. In any modestly challenging environment (e.g. battery powered device a few walls away from the nearest powered device) I have gotten used to having to try out multiple products before finding one that was reliable, and that was even after learning not to buy anything that wasn't at least "500 series" (Silicon Labs part number for Z-Wave Plus).

Even Enbrighten, a former GE brand and so ostensibly reputable (this of course depends on how familiar you are with the GE of today) is shipping some total garbage that they haven't even bothered to develop real documentation for. Curiously, I've found that some Enbrighten products and Zooz products are physically identical to the degree that I think they are both sourcing some of their hardware from the same manufacturer... but Zooz has very noticeably superior firmware.
