Other German here. I can't speak for every country in Europe, but right now it looks like energy supply shortages in Germany are unlikely.

Gas storages as of today are 97%, and Europe as a whole is at 93% [1]. This is also the reason the gas price shoot up this much, because everyone was filling up the storages as fast as possible, no matter the cost. But due to the full storages gas prices are falling. Spain is even turning away LNG tankers because there is no more capacity [2].

Without any gas supplies, Germanies storages will last 2 months. This is incredibly unlikely to happen. There are LNG terminals being build right now and one is about to go online [3]. Besides those, there is still gas coming in from the Netherlands and other parts of Europe.

When it comes to electricity, there may be some trouble ahead if France doesn't get its nuclear plants online in the next months [4].

Another factor which helps right now, is that it's still kinda warm for this time of year and this winter is predicted to be on the warmer side.

The last point to make is that there are laws which mandate the shutdown of gas- and electricity-heavy industries to prevent any residental shortages. In an emergency nearly 50% of electricity and 50% of gas could be saved.

It is difficult to get a person to understand something, when his/her bonus depends on not understanding it.

Most of these bonuses are probably tied with frivolous, often highly unpopular and unwanted, feature updates. I doubt people get bonuses (or as large bonuses) for fixing usability bugs or improving quality.
I don't care about frequent updates but I hate the forced restart after an update.

Now I have disabled the automatic security updates in Ubuntu only because I can't just close my browser whenever Mozilla feels like it. I can't understand who thought this was a good idea. "Yeah, lets update the browser and then force them to reboot, who uses browsers for anything important anyway?"
It is possible to perform a legal action which doesn't violate any rules and which is simply unethical (the conclusion of the government ethics advisors in this case).

If the council's remit is to advise on "how to enhance American competitiveness on AI against its adversaries, build the AI workforce of the future, and develop data and ethical procedures", anyone on the council can shape policy that will pick winners and losers in the marketplace based on that "advice". You then have to wonder to whose benefit the advise really is.
Assuming you mean "potential for memtest86+ on UEFI-based aarch64 systems" - memtest86+ takes over the entire system, rather than relying on firmware services. In that respect it's more like a kernel rather than an app, and so involves a lot of architecture-specific setup code - the UEFI port here is more about being able to jump into the memtest86+ "kernel" from the UEFI firmware than making it a generic UEFI application. It also needs guarantees around memory access that aren't provided by C, so there's assembly code to do that. And finally, a lot of the hardware interaction seems to assume a PC-type platform. I don't think there's anything impossible to port to aarch64 here, but it looks like a fair amount of work.
So you didn't find a red flag in the scientific paper but in something that was said in one interview?

I don't have an XR2 devkit so I can only guess, but TDP-wise they seem pretty comparable. Obviously that doesn't include boost power etc and there's stuff integrated into the XR2 that we need to do on an FPGA, but overall I've not felt like a modern x86 processor is overly disadvantaged.

I'm sure one could do a more rigorous comparison, but IMO with the recent Intel/AMD chips you get pretty good performance/power.

I'm sure you're correct, but I'd love to see numbers to back this up.

The union of concerned scientists has done this for electric vehicles, which is really useful.

I'd also like to see it for low-hour-usage stuff, like tractors, lawnmowers, chainsaws, etc.

(Though, honestly, electric chainsaws are way, way better than medium sized gas ones, CO2 footprint be damned.)

But we've also been openly declaring these claims to not have any teeth, for almost a year now: https://simulavr.com/blog/we-dont-want-the-metaverse/

TLDR: That post is from 2021, and we basically said that Meta's product vision is to start with a social network/gaming platform first, and then backwards engineer productivity into it as a third use case; whereas we want to start with productive VR computing as our first and only focus, and engineer everything we do around that.

I've noticed how many fluff-filled articles I see lately about 'needing to get back to the office' in many publications that seem to have a large number of advertisers selling office space. I don't have any numbers, but it seems pretty crazy how many of these have been popping up in different 'business journal' types of sites.
Or: can it run unsigned code?
If MS showed up with a backward compatibility layer as good as Apple’s Rosetta, they’d instantly be a strong competitor. Maybe not for gaming systems or high-end workstations — at least not immediately — but in the huge space of people who want a battery sipping laptop with access to a vast amount of software they’re already using.

When the media is based around folklore from a particular region, it's understandable to want it to match the region. I don't care about the casting, but if there were redcoat musketeers and samurai-looking warriors in a movie loosely based on old German fairy-tales, it'd be weird.

That quote from the article (50% missiles stopped means 50% fewer dead) is simply false. It simply means that more missiles will be launched towards each destination. The fact that this requires more missiles is inconsequential given the number of premium targets relative to the number of missiles known to be available. There are far fewer premium targets than nukes.

Imagine the effects of just a single well placed nukes in NYC, LA, San Francisco, and Chicago. 4 nukes expended, 5,973 remaining. Now enter in 50% effective shields, thus requiring an average of 2 nukes. Now, it requires twice the nukes so there's only 5,969 remaining. Very comforting.

wow - how is this not the default? It's always the behavior that I expect to happen, and I'm pretty much always surprised and disappointed when it does a global search instead.
Imagorvideo is the ffmpeg based plugin for Imagor to handle video files. Imagor is an image optimization API/server. With Imagorvideo you can use URL parameters to request a frame from a local or remote video file. Since it now supports percentage indexes, a remote file doesn't have to be known to you. You could simply say that you want to get a frame from somewhere in the middle of the file. Adding the parameter "seek(0.5)" to the URL would request frames from around the middle of the file and then select the one frame that scores the best from a RMSE histogram. The frame can the go through the rest of Imagor pipeline and be re-sized, smartcropped, converted to JPEG, AVIF and so on. The image processing parameters are based on the Thumbor URL format.

I've been using Imagor and Imagorvideo for sometime now and am very happy with it, especially since I often work with video files that aren't known to me (e.g. UGC or remote files). In my use case this has replaced Thumbor and a whole bunch of shell scripts and various other glue to handle unknown files.

The kung-foley point is the best example for me because I've seen fight scenes in old films that didn't have any of the sound effects. It was unsettling how quiet it was and it actually felt (more) fake.

Agree that companies can disappear up their own asses but the value of great management is very high. Satya Nadella at Microsoft for example has been worth hundreds of billions of dollars to the shareholders. Guys that good do not grow on trees - they had Steve Ballmer who didn't know how to do anything except make money. And if Microsoft hadn't hired him 25 years ago, they would have probably had to put some McMBA in charge, and would have had one more Steve Ballmer era. So the value of that hire, 25 years ago, was extremely high.
Show HN: Podcastsaver.com – a search engine testbench dressed as a podcast site
Hey HN,

I submitted PodcastSaver (https://podcastsaver.com) before but the reason it's interesting now is that I've started converting it into a live search engine test-bench.

I've discussed it a bit here[0], and this idea has been kicking around in my head for a while so I got a chance to do some related writing about it with Supabase[1].

The basic idea is to use a modest piece of the podcast index[2] as a place to test out different new age search engines against each other.

So far there are two engines running:

- Postgres FTS + pg_trgm (tuned -- indices are there, I did some EXPLAINing earlier today to tighten things up, but still all built-in tech)

- Meilisearch (untuned -- just stand it up, give it resources and put in documents)

To that effect, I've added a "nerds" page you should peruse:
https://podcastsaver.com/nerds

On that page you can:

- choose your search engine

- choose whether to force disable the cache (obviously... you'd want that, for the results to mean anything, but for regular people surfing the cache is on!)

As far as actually getting the podcast search really good, there is a ton of curation left to do so it's a subpar consumer product still, but it's interesting from at least this angle! Going to add more search engines later but who knows when (this project was supposed to be short!).

I can't add every engine on the huge list of new-age search engines[3], but I can say that I will get to highlighting all of them in Awesome F/OSS[4]... Eventually.

Home mills -- that were small enough to keep hidden from a surprise inspection -- might be fine for small amounts but unlikely efficient enough for full harvests.
I'm totally with you.

I'm annoyed by the climate change (CO2) narrative. It is far too narrow. Rather we should be talking about an umbrella of unsustainability that includes wildlife decimation, biodiversity collapsing, pollution, overfishing, deforestation, water and air quality.

We shouldn't just live in a way that expels less CO2, we should live in a way that doesn't annihilate the biosphere.

And yes, gardens are a great personal way to make a start. Mine too has native flowers which attract lots of insects, in turn attracting birds and bats. Plus some mini ponds. It's far less work compared to a sterile garden whilst much more fun.
Happy Diwali to you.

I have a snapshot of all of OSM for a given date (conveniently called planet-XXXXXX.osm.pbf) and the compressed version is 62GB. And the format is optimized for reading certain chunks (as well as updating with new data). Plus there are libraries that do the heavy lifting for you in little time at all.

The size is really not as big of an issue as you think it is.
i3/i5 12 and 13 gen?

Outside m1/m2 there isn't any chip that can be compared to i5 intel 13 gen especially for PC space [that is in the same price bracket]. (maybe some arm chips can get close to i3 12100f but you can get it for 90 usd and get good single core performance so im not sure if in this price point is even any arm alternative)

Thanks. That's a helpful point. With startups, you take some risks and they don't pan out. I am still trying to figure out the best way to bring this in my profile/pitch/resume.

I suspect that the Hiring Managers/HR in the US don't seem to be very pedantic about job-hopping in startup world if we're looking at the first 5-6 years. Europe is a lot more old-school in this sense.
I don't think there is a fundamental reason for that. Office buildings are designed to be reconfigured. I guess you'd need to rip out + replace the plumbing + HVAC (or only put in a few ultra-luxury units per floor).
Not a surprise there. I was talking to a CEO friend of mine whose company had just leased a huge office right before the pandemic for five years. They closed all their small offices around town and moved everyone early during the pandemic, which means most people have never seen the new building. Their stuff is just in boxes on desks. They can't get out of the lease early, so for now the leadership shows up once a week for meetings and that's about it.

But in about three years they will ditch the lease, as will many other companies in similar situations. This is just the beginning.

On the plus side, here in Cupertino there has been an eternal debate what to do with the empty land the old mall used to sit on. They wanted to build 3M square feet of office space, but now they probably won't do that, which is a big win for the community who wants it to be retail or housing and not offices.
> I guess my skepticism of this is a bit unpopular - but the way they measured intrusive thoughts is whether or not the people mentioned the traumatic film they saw in a journal for a week.

That's a fair criticism. Doing research on real PTSD is tough -- everyone's experience is a little different, and is colored by their personal history -- and it'd be wildly unethical to put test subjects through an in-person experience stressful enough to induce lasting PTSD. Some studies, like the Tetris intervention one I linked elsewhere [1], used real trauma patients; others, like this one, have to rely on stress simulants like a violent film.

I will note, however, that Irréversible [2] -- the film this study used excerpts from -- is exceptionally violent. It's not a run-of-the-mill action film. One of the scenes the study probably used graphically depicts a man being beaten to death with a fire extinguisher.

The biggest upshot of SQL is that it makes migrating from one system to the next a lot easier. I can write something against SQLite or PostgreSQL, and when it comes time to move to $something_else for a particular aspect for some reason I ... just can, without having to rewrite the lot.

Of course, not all is perfect because no one actually supports ANSI SQL, and everyone has their own extensions and incompatibilities so you'll probably have to at least tweak some things. Besides, string concatenation isn't exactly a fantastic way to communicate with a database in the first place. But at this point it's pretty much the only thing we've got that's even vaguely universal.
The (clearly a bit facetious) question was not "is it possible to implement syntax and script files" but "is VSCode able to read vim's syntax and script files", as the ability to do something isn't equivalent to something already having been done.

The US doesn't conduct a nuclear first strike, not because it fears getting nuked in return, but because it doesn't want to be seen as the bad guy. The presence or absence of a missile defense system doesn't change this. Also, there's an entire paragraph on why even an effective system won't change this, so long as it's not perfectly effective (which it can't be), because we still end up with one or more nukes landing in the US, and the acceptable number for that is politically 0.
Yup. I imagine most of the key stakeholder/editorial approvers have already taken up some kind of short position, or at least exited any of their positions that require an up and to the right trajectory quite awhile ago.
A long time ago my wife shattered her wrist. In the ER, they explained that they needed to reset it so it could be put in a splint before surgery could be scheduled. They weren't going to use anesthetic. She would be conscious of the pain as they moved her wrist into position, but they'd give her something so she wouldn't remember the experience.

15+ years later she remembers telling them to go ahead and do it, then there's a hole in her memory for about 10 minutes.

I'd say that's one good solution.

Guess what, so was the first NES, and the first Play Station, the first Game Boy, etc. for their respective companies.

Breaking into a new market, with a new product, in uncharted waters, with no prior experience, with no support from clueless executives who don't believe in the new product looking for any reason to stop you from burning cash, endless turf wars such large and expensive projects create, makes it is hard, brutally hard, for any company to succed on the first try.

Yes, we do know how Russia operates - it has always been Russia's stated position that they won't hesitate to use nuclear weapons as first strike weapon if they have a direct conflict with any military powerful country or the NATO or the US. Thankfully, Russia is not a failed state and has a stable political system, with good political leadership, fully in control of its military. It is very unlikely that nuclear weapons will be used against Ukraine in any manner, unless more countries ally with Ukraine against Russia and their military actually participate in the war.
I would think this is a lower bound too, since there's a lot of companies with long leases signed before the pandemic either eating crow or subletting until the lease expires.

And then if you count all the companies doing a return to office motion just to justify the real estate, it could go even higher...

I don't think we will know the true impact of the WFH era for another few years.
