I think Cargo and GoReleaser already make this simple enough. Heck, even Alpine Linux has down the process of compiling for multiple architectures for multiple languages. It really isn't that much of a challenge to do so and there are already sandboxing solutions for each operating system. WASM doesn't get rid of JS, it just puts sandboxing into a JS-based engine. The last thing people should want is to run binary blobs in your browsers which is exactly what it does. The same browsers who gladly trade privacy at ever iteration. Might as well just go publish your browsing history online cause that is where this will lead.

GoReleaser and Cargo do that already. Cross-compilation is nothing new.

Everything is a tradeoff. They get parts for cheap from certain manufacturers. Those have proprietary firmware that you and I can't have the source code to. Everything else is open source. For me, that's fine. It lets me buy them for much cheaper. You could probably design your own board and find completely open source hardware and software yourself, but I doubt if there's much profit in it. If you have a better path and can keep the board as cheap as it is then you should probably get in touch with their engineers.
I would bet the FBI operates and controls a non-zero amount of mixing services.
I disagree that it’s as complicated as you’re making it seem. There are only a few cases, relatively, where the “age/weight/race/level of sickness” is taken into account, and the prescribing physician would be the one that makes that call rather than a pharmacist.

There’s also nothing that says that information couldn’t be transferred along with a prescription. It’s not like a centralized system wouldn’t have all that information about you, along with any other prescriptions and even non-prescription medications previously purchased with Walgreen’s (or any other pharmacy, they all do it) rewards card.

A computer can also certainly be trained to identify outliers, and can certainly process complex interactions (not that there’s nearly as many or as varied and diverse as you’re making it seem) better than a human can, with the same data. At the end of the day there’s a finite number of these interactions, and while things like dosage might affect some, overall it’s groups of drugs that interact with each other which is generally looked at.

Finally, at least for me, every time I get a prescription filled I get literally a 5 second conversation with a pharmacist at best. 10 seconds if it’s a new prescription with a particularly bad side effect.

Suffice to say, I don’t think you’ve shown why exactly a human would be better than a machine at this job.
Above its critical point, (-82.59°C) it won't condense into a liquid. It will continue compressing into a supercritical fluid, which will take a very high pressure to equal the density of liquid methane. The gas is about 0.7g/L at STP, the liquid is 422g/L at 1 atm at its boiling point. You'd need 600 atmospheres or 8862 PSI. A typical cylinder is around 2500-3000 psi.

Liquid methane is distributed refrigerated.
Came here to say this. There is nothing meaningful in our lives which goes completely unscathed from the cultural destruction of the attention economy.
i read a book called dopamine nation and it was eye opening on how modern consumer products are designed to hijack your natural reward system. one of the products mentioned was ksafe which is a box with a timed lock.

first time i used it with my phone, I locked it from 8 PM - 7 AM.

it was eye opening how anxious and uncomfortable i felt not having my phone to browse whenever i felt bored or as i going to sleep.

I don't think that's true. I think the costs are top line, before corporate and individual taxes, which would include any cost which go to socialized medicine in Europe.

As a separate question, I don't know that the European socialized Healthcare Services are paying for the migrant workers from Eastern countries that perform the work

I believe they are coming from people wanting to push people to get confortable with running binary blobs in their browsers so they can suck up all that juicy personal information leaked by browsers.

There are pretty good databases of known harmful drug interactions available from vendors like Wolters Kluwer. Those are generally already integrated with the eRx features of most modern EHRs and pharmacy systems, and will pop up an alert.

The problem is that patient charts are often incomplete, or lacking proper RxNorm or NDC codes for the current medication list. So competent clinicians have to prevent problems from slipping through the cracks using their judgment and intuition. This is not something which can ever be automated (short of a true AGI).
True. Music is relatively easy to perform and create (forgetting whether it is Eleanor Rigby or not). But even though there are many that can, let's not diminish the very often seemingly miraculous feat of those that can perfectly perform a piece they've never heard just by reading it, often while they perform it, even though perfectly reading English out loud is a similar exercise. As many people can't read music as can read literature, and I've never heard of music literacy ruining a musician's career. But it is a good thing music is so easy for the curious and determined, because though many have learned it in their later years, learning to read music gets more and more difficult the older one is, but music itself never gets more difficult. Now, Gold Records, OTOH, I seriously doubt are easy to do, even if it was very likely easy for the artist, they had no way of knowing beforehand even if they so claimed.

It's what they sell them for. The scalpers will do what scalpers do when demand outstrips supply. It's a hard problem to solve in this day of automated everything. If you have a solution for them to keep scalpers from gouging then I think you should get in touch with the RPi foundation and help them solve the problem.
The Fed can't do that. The US is a country of laws. By law, the Fed has the dual mandate to keep inflation and unemployment low. Currently unemployment is extremely low, well below the target, and inflation is extremely high. If the Fed stops fighting inflation, in principle Chair Jerome Powell can be impeached. This has never happened in the history, and Powell has zero intentions to be the first.

The only way for the Fed to not fight inflation is for Congress to change the law. Good luck with that.
Xerox really missed out - inventing the GUI, laser printer, and ethernet among other things. How did IBM and Apple take over and Xerox end up as a has-been also ran? What went wrong in their commercialization of revolutionary technology?
To be fair, the RasPi folks are saying that if you email their sales department directly they do have some stock allocated to ship out to good causes. They are simply beholden to their OEM contracts for most of what is getting produced currently.

I doubt anyone foresaw that RasPi would be forced to ship less than 400k units across all their models monthly. The chip shortage is catching everyone by surprise, and we’re probably lucky RasPi is considered important enough to get a regular allocation of their BoM at all, given the low margins they’re operating on.

As I understand it, there are quite a few OEMs who have staff allocated to improving the Pi ecosystem as well, so it’s not like the educational and hobbyist markets gain nothing from their OEM engagements. RasPi has become the de-facto standard for the, “I need a cheap card that can run Linux in under 10 watts,” market in large part because of its robust support.
Great post for Software Engineers to approach the UI/UX perspective
Ha, interesting - Thanks for taking the time to share, the original site was very special to me when growing up. I heard that the rights to all of that original music got transferred to some BigCorp that had a lot of involvement with elevator music. Lots of history lost there, which was a catastrophe if you ask me. The original I'm talking about was from 2000-2001 or so. Can't believe it's been 20 years.

Then that is just giving in to capitalist excess. The only way I could see stopping it would be to stop OEM purchases and sell to individuals who sign up with real credentials (like a phone number or credit card that can be verified) and limiting the number of sales to those individuals and even that is only going to sort of work.

In all fairness, the Bash code really did quite a bit more than that proverbial one-liner. But much of it wasn't calling and tying together those external tools, it was data analysis code that would have been so much simpler in Python.

Plus, being a Python shop, any of us could have maintained a Python version, instead of the one engineer who was truly a Bash wizard.

Some common sense and manual work might have been even better: just ask everyone in the company to identify the code areas they were familiar with and manually populate the CODEOWNERS files, instead of spending months on a mostly-failed attempt to automate the whole thing.

Or, just teach people how to use git blame!

After all, many of us touched many different parts of the code. Git blame would tell you immediately who was familiar with the different bits, at a much more granular level than a CODEOWNERS file in a directory.

I disagree with the premise of the article, interconnectedness is a great benefit to science. Yes there are inequities, but that also means more collaboration, and more scrutiny. Science is deeply corrupt but for other reasons such as a lot of money in certain areas of interest, pressure from governments and ivory tower mentality.
For those who only need a few boards, rpilocator has been a great resource. Adafruit typically releases a handful every week on Wednesday I believe. (Check out rpilocator's Twitter feed as they typically give folks a heads up before the Adafruit drop: @rpilocator) They do limit 1 per customer per month though..

Also backordered a 4GB version on Digikey and it came through only a week later. (Good timing on my part I guess!)

It took a few months to get to this point so patience is the name of the game for sure until the market cools off a bit.
not at all, since only RPi Foundation gets the SoCs.

It is a huge conflict of interest "learning" of a solution to a problem from an ad who's express purpose is to get you to buy it. I agree with the sibling comment; fixing problems is fine but do it from something trustworthy, not the company with the biggest advertising pocketbook.
This is the general curse of async UI these days, and it's everywhere from the web to native desktop apps to the OS itself.

Obviously, it can be done right, but it seems that most devs who are so eager to jump on the async bandwagon have no idea that they have to make that effort now.
Ask HN: Implementation of Account Ledgers
It seems to me that the mechanism to maintain a ledger of user accounts is mostly the same across companies and domains, even though it is probably implemented from scratch in each company. Even if the account asset type is different, the concept of transfers (credit one account, debit another), account creation/update, history, statement generation, and correctness of calculations is mostly the same for an e-commerce store or an exchange.

Has this been true in your experience?

The real, time-consuming work is building the site up front, then on an ongoing and perpetual basis: doing technical maintenance and updates, moderating the site for trolls and spam, monitoring and logs, backups, user support, community administration, etc..

It's also thankless work because wikis, unlike forums, are much harder places to build a critical mass of users who will be engaged and want to invest time and effort.

So you have a proportionally small number of people who maintain the content, and a potentially large audience of read-only drop-in users who are not invested in the community in any way, but just want answers so they can leave.

Finding people to operate this kind of site reliably and long-term, unpaid, is really difficult.

So instead, for better or worse people get it for free from Fandom, in exchange for ads.

Can AI’s Recommendations Be Less Insidious?
While this article feels true, I wish it provided more of its own researched evidence to prove the point. I went through several links and possibly the most relevant ones are "Why are medical journals full of fashionable nonsense?"[1] and the book "Science Fictions"[2].

Most of the other links talk about other tangentially related topics. The subheading "How the attention economy corrupts science" which should contain the meat actually has little to no research of its own that can convince me of the title (unless I'm willing to read the book "Science Fictions"). I read the article "Why are medical journals full of fashionable nonsense?" and found it to have a similar vibe although it had more concrete evidence. Still, the need for more than a few examples is something I feel is fair to call for. Basically, I don't find it to fully support this original article about "attention economy" corrupting science.

Overall, I think this is quite an ironic state. The article seems to hold on to what feels like an idea that is socially popular, something we all suspect, and it presents it as true with evidence that is either vague or indirect (look, this book exists on the topic, therefore it is true). The article fails to clearly draw the differences between "working hard to get attention to one's science" vs "the act of getting attention is corrupting science". I'm overall unconvinced that this article really does anything much to support its premise.

I suspect the point is that we would be better off just burning the methane at the source and putting the energy we would have used converting it to methanol instead towards whatever energy the methanol would have eventually been used for.

In many categories of photos or images, JPEG XL [1] actually does better than AVIF in low bitrate settings. Which is the only advantage AVIF has over JPEG XL. And I am increasingly convinced that not losing details is the correct solution rather than smoothing things out in AVIF.

With progressive decoding, JPEG XL is also much a better fit for the web.

I just dont see how we continue to ignore JPEG XL and want to force AVIF adoption everywhere, when XL is technically superior, including encoding and decoding complexity. We literally have representatives from different companies and industries, most have been silent in the image / video codec format war begging for browser vendors to support JPEG XL.

But of course the cult and ideology somehow had people convinced the only accepted codec are AVIF, AV1 and Opus.

The problem with science is that there are too few discoveries for too many scientists. This caused the reproducibility crisis. This caused grad student overwork and abuse. It also means working scientists have had to turn to the "attention economy" to save themselves.

We forget that this notion that anyone could (and everyone should) be a scientist is really new and (ironically) quite untested idea. Well, this error mode is called a "glut" and it sucks for everyone involved. Maybe science is better off being either a hobby for rich weirdos (and/or the savants that they patronize) or a game that big business keeps paying to play to secure that all-important new intellectual property. Whoever decided you could make a science factory that produces discoveries was an idiot, and now we have proof.
It's nice that this has finally come to the public's awareness. For a few years, I was afraid that the attention economy would be an 'invisible hand' which would have a significant impact on everything but which nobody would notice.

People used to be uncomfortable discussing 'attention' or 'the media' - I suspect because it was too abstract or not relevant enough to them - Now that many people are struggling to get any attention for their work, attention and the media seem more relevant.

When someone publishes the best work of their career and it receives less recognition than their early work, it sometimes makes them wonder what has changed.
You're probably right because I just did. For anyone who's never been to Los Alamos... worth it.
People are not disposable because they need to be trained. Sure we have books, but everytime you need to look up order in the book a minute is lost compared to someone who knows.

Frankly, anybody saying "the only thing Uber has over X is Y" hasn't been paying enough attention.

Uber hasn't been doing scooters for a while. The rentals in the app are through Lime. Stuff like self driving and aviation also got offloaded to Aurora and Joby, respectively.

The third largest vertical for Uber is freight, not scooters. $1.8B in revenue there in Q2.

The rides business now has several arms, from B2B corporate accounts to numerous partnerships with players in adjacent and semi-adjacent industries.

The eats business is branching into general last mile delivery (e.g. cornershop acquisition).

The B2C strategy now is to bundle all the rides/rentals/food/deliveries services into the Uber One membership package, similar to the Amazon Prime/Costco volume-incentivizing model.

Look through the careers site and you see there's an ads arm spinning up.

I'm seeing a very clear change in focus from pie-in-the-sky ideas to more proven business strategies.

Why do you say that? I think each field has its strengths and weaknesses. For example, mission critical applications still tend to avoid using DL algorithms since stability can only be proven in the sense of Lyapunov. There is also RL, which borrows many fundamental concepts from control theory.
