In the preview gif it's showing the matched hintkeys LIVE as you search.

I think this is actually a huge different in UX. I'm using the emacs equivalent in avy, avy-goto-char-timer[1], and that small pause between searching and acting (typing the hints) makes the experience jarring enough that I don't want end up using goto-char-timer in motions that much (only for jumping across windows and panes)

With no delay between <leap key> and <hint key>, the UX of d<leap key><hint key> is much smoother

I was surprised while reading your article how good the AIs did. I think it's fascinating that your intuition was that these tools would be able to do a good job of drawing a graph based on a description of it...
If you insist on scheduling two calls with me where it’s a guarantee one of the two is completely fucking useless and irrelevant for me then you’ve maxed out your potential mean highest average relevance of a sales call to 50%. That’s your best case.

Maybe just work on a couple common use cases and get your team able to pivot and share the more relevant examples on a demo in the first call and aim a little higher.

Your software’s various applications are probably not each the special precious unique snowflakes you think they are. Just a guess.
I think we need to credit the Swedish medical system here. They found that people who had taken oral Terbinafine (to treat toenail fungus) had a significantly lower mortality from prostate cancer. This has let to a bunch of studies where terbinafine has been added to cancer treatment with fantastic results.
After doing dev work for nearly two decades, I've been in presales for the last six years. I've definitely had a one or two intro calls with tech-savvy people who bullied their way past the BDR. These were smart people with good ideas, who had no idea what procurement at the enterprise company they just started working for even begins to look like, and it was 60-90 minutes none of us will ever get back, for a project that's never going to happen anyway.

I worked at a company where we jumped at every opportunity that we got, it's real nice to be somewhere now where there's a little more of a vetting process.

As mentioned in the article, the system is based on the ICON Earth System model[1], which has the following description:

The Earth system model provides a numerical laboratory for research on the climate dynamics on time scales of a season to millennia. Necessarily most processes are parameterized to allow the computationally efficient integration over long periods.

It's also mentioned it will contribute to DestinE[2]:

Destination Earth (DestinE) aims to develop – on a global scale - a highly accurate digital model of the Earth to monitor and predict the interaction between natural phenomena and human activities. [...] The initial focus will be on the effects of climate change and extreme weather events, their socio-economic impact and possible adaptation and mitigation strategies.

If you had fully explored using those and found them insufficient then it would have been an interesting case study in them "not working". Supposedly this is a nearly "solved problem" but I am very curious to hear real world use cases and whether it truly works or not.

It sounds like you may have your solution, but for linux users with similar concerns I'll note:

Not sure if it's available on Windows: `ntpd -g` can perform a big update on first check. https://serverfault.com/a/16513/513049

Nintendo makes a lot of money rereleasing games. You might not be able to buy an n64 or a copy of mario 64 new anymore, because they aren't manufactured anymore. But people will pay for a rerelease of mario 64 on the wii or switch, possibly highly (a bundle of 3 rereleased "unavailable"mario games was going for $50-$60 new on switch recently).

Also the games aren't 100% unavailable, they're perfectly available on their original platforms on the secondary market if you want one badly.
A lot of popular web apps seem to decay in this way. The founding developers create an excellent site, it becomes a huge cash cow, then the organization becomes bloated and more focused on extracting more out of existing value than creating new value or building on the original principles.

Medium didn't always have a paywall, and I am thankful to the random users here that post archive links to bypass paywalls, I even installed a browser extension for it thanks to this site. Facebook is starting to lose users for the first time in history, despite a rebranding.

This website really doesn't have that issue as far as I can tell, and people seem receptive to promoting your software if it is actually useful. There doesn't appear to be such a heavy censorship of hacker-related material that conflicts with corporate interest, like the aforementioned paywall bypass links.

In other words, if it ain't broke don't fix it lol
Website down?
Yes, with mention of needing a storage system for trucks.

> "At mining sites, where hydrogen is piped in, we can convert the existing diesel engines that are used to generate power," says Prof. Kook.

> "In terms of applications where the hydrogen fuel would need to be stored and moved around, for example in a truck engine that currently runs purely on diesel, then we would also need to implement a hydrogen storage system to be integrated into our injection system.
> The researchers say that any diesel engine used in trucks and power equipment in the transportation, agriculture and mining industries could ultimately be retrofitted to the new hybrid system in just a couple of months.

Not sure what they mean here.

Is it the tech is a couple of month away from being production ready?

Or does it take two months of work effort to retrofit the engine? If so, how many people are working?
and this isn't the same set of rules being applied to diesel or petrol or LNG or batteries?
It's a throwaway line, but I take issue at the idea that you can't get vegetarian meals in a tiny French village. Any traditional culinary setup is going to have at least a plurality of vegetarian options due to meat not always having been affordable and people experimenting with what they have. It's only when you weaken the link between food and cultural history that you end up with a lopsided menu (or maybe you are in a specific situation such as surviving on mostly seal blubber for generations), so you're paradoxically more likely to run into vegetarian problems in modern restaurants as described in the article than in a place with traditional cooking.

You have learned a very valuable life lesson.

The path you took was not an advisable one. The wins of the past decade were way past normal. The game seemed too easy.

Now that you have the experience, go read bogleheads.org and begin to learn a more sustainable path to wealth. (It's still very much attainable, especially for the typical HN reader.)

Good luck.
And nintendo will later rerelease those classic pokémon games in some form and rake in money off people like you (and me). Waiting is part of their market strategy. The NES and SNES classic editions sold out quickly iirc; when the time is right, a gameboy classic might do the same.
>I still remember the ominous feeling of receiving an unsolicited, location-based mobile notification from Google requesting a review immediately after leaving a local restaurant. Digital surveillance works by some unseen "magic" to most users, which is more dread than horror, like a hacker posting your IP and location out of nowhere just to freak you out.

Vernor Vinge's A Deepness in the Sky depicts a human interstellar civilization thousands of years in the future, in which superluminal travel is impossible (for the humans), so travelers use hibernation to pass the decades while their ships travel between star systems. Merchants often revisit systems after a century or two, so see great changes in each visit.

The merchants repeatedly find that once smart dust (tiny swarms of nanomachines) are developed, governments inevitably use them for ubiquitous surveillance, which inevitably causes societal collapse. <https://blog.regehr.org/archives/255>
They don’t have enough mindshare, which is why they had to pivot to enterprise. Imo it’s a death knell. Their product is just too expensive for the little that it does. It will continue to do little compared to competing products because there’s no developers because no one paying $3300 for a device to experiment on. It’s easy to justify spending that much for Apple Reality, but not for a low visual fidelity device that does less than a Quest 2 at a much higher price point. Even if it was closer to Quest 2’s price point, it’s still hard to justify

Yeah, Substack is something new and seems to be gaining traction. I wonder if its success has contributed at all to Reddit's CEO saying he wants users to earn money,

> Spez - I want our users, user-users and moderator users, to make money on reddit. Specifically, I want them to make money from other users. And so we need to have business models where users are paying money to other users or to subreddits. I would like subreddits to have the ability to be businesses. We have a lot of subreddits that are kind of trying to do this, but the platform just doesn't support it.

I think in the oral language we use it to make an adjective stronger.

largo -> laaargo -> very long

chico -> chiquitito -> chiquitiiito (with an acute voice ) -> very small

rápido -> rápido (faster than usual, perhaps say it twice or three times) -> very fast

lento -> leeento (slowwer usual) -> very slow

Note that all this uses are in informal oral language, some leak to informal written language. And they may be regional. [Hi from Argentina!]

Anyway, all the cases I can remember now are used to make an adjective stronger, not to tell an adjective and a noun at the same time as you describe with signs language.
No no, your first bit doesn't capture at all what I was thinking, but your last bit does. And generally, across the board, I definitely do want this kind of fight because I believe that a good "public" fight is exactly what's needed, and I think this could be it, because it ropes in the massive community that is game creators.

Definitely a maybe. But I suppose I see game creators putting up a better fight than, e.g. the Tumblr adult material community, who more or less rolled over, no pun intended.

> The Western press totally ignored the treatment of Russian speaking Ukrainians in the Donbass region

We hear this a lot, but I've read lots and lots of articles about occupied Donetsk in western media since 2014. Reporters on the ground interviewing people on both sides of things. What has been ignored? A substantial proportion of the population of that area fled into other parts of Ukraine in 2014, why are they ignored? They were forced from their home by the actions of Russia and their agitators - and they don't want to be part of Russia. And all the old folk had to cross back into Ukraine proper to collect their pensions.

Also a lot of people in Ukraine speak Russian, including the president so this whole "Russian speaking Ukrainians" is stupid. What Ukraine did was to try and contain a military operation being run in one of their regions by a neighbouring country.
If a community or society decides on boundaries as to the consumption or distribution of something, it doesn’t matter that you personally decide those standards and laws don’t apply to you. You can try justify your behavior by saying “no one gets hurt” but really all you’re doing is rationalizing selfishness, which seems to be what everyone is doing here w.r.t. piracy. You want what you want, rules and laws be damned.
It’s less common for me to use numbers with motions on a single line.

A lot of times I find a landmark on the line I’m working, for example, I see there’s a word with a “C”. Then, say I want to delete everything to that “C” I’ll do dtC. Or I want to delete everything in quotes on the line, I’ll do di”. Or I’ll pick a character, say “ “ (as in a blank space), and do 3f<space>, and if I need to jump more from there I’ll just just comma a couple times if I need.

I will, however, use 30j or 3J to operate across lines, since I have both absolute and relative line numbers turned on. But solely for movement I’m more likely to use HML to initially jump somewhere more than 5 lines, then do something like 4k or 2j to jump the rest of the way.
I hate companies that do this bullshit, as it’s fundamentally disrespectful of customers.

We regularly have to deal with this crap to prospect vendors for tech solutions. Some companies do multiple rounds of qualifications with people punching their KPI cards wasting my time. If you’re recording the calls, listen to the recording and stop wasting my time.

If we don’t need the vendor, we ghost you. If we really need the vendor, we have a process to flag it so that someone gets ahold of a C- or founder level contact in the company. That’s gotten at least 3 sales directors fired, and with the high level sponsor, we usually grind out a significant concession to close the deal.
As a meat-eater, I definitely respect vegans more because they have a clear ideological reasoning and don't rationalize. Vegetarianism seems really milquetoast in comparison, assuming it's not done for health reasons. It's the dietary equivalent of what an enthusiastic reader of The Economist is to politics: no real plan, just continuing with the status quo without really understanding why.

I took 3 years of Latin and it was among the most useless things I've ever wasted brain cells on. I wish instead I had taken a language people actually speak (spanish, french, mandarin, anything really), to learn about other cultures and make it easier to travel the world.

I'm very enthusiastic about teaching all kinds of things that are getting cut from curricula (history, algebra, civics, wood shop, home ec, music, art, etc) -- but Latin in particular is peak useless.

Yes but the software is useless without it. And I believe that violates one of the other App Store rules.

Even if it doesn’t I imagine Apple would see this as promoting piracy of their software (the ROM and MacOS classic) and refuse to let it in under any reason they could try to justify.

Basically I don’t think it would ever get on the store period.

As far as "productivity metric" and GDP, the military industrial complex in USA has wasted tons of debt money the past couple decades. Half the defense budget, and all of the 2008 bankster bailout, and the 2020 cruise line bailout, should have instead been given to every American. Congress spends like this because the voters elect those people to best represent the banksters, cruise line CEOs, and bomb makers. Since voting doesn't change anything (except maybe local elections) why work so hard?

> In the Turing generation, each of the four SM processing blocks (also called partitions) had two primary datapaths, but only one of the two could process FP32 operations. The other datapath
was limited to integer operations. GA10X includes FP32 processing on both datapaths, doubling
the peak processing rate for FP32 operations. One datapath in each partition consists of 16
FP32 CUDA Cores capable of executing 16 FP32 operations per clock. Another datapath
consists of both 16 FP32 CUDA Cores and 16 INT32 Cores, and is capable of executing either
16 FP32 operations OR 16 INT32 operations per clock. As a result of this new design, each
GA10x SM partition is capable of executing either 32 FP32 operations per clock, or 16 FP32
and 16 INT32 operations per clock. All four SM partitions combined can execute 128 FP32
operations per clock, which is double the FP32 rate of the Turing SM, or 64 FP32 and 64 INT32
operations per clock.
