> But it's also ridiculous to brush off all non-ionizing radiation as harmless.

I disagree. There's more than enough empirical data that shows non-ionizing radiation is safe. Consider, for example, how many people work at or live near MW emitters (like radio stations).

You don't find that populations around those emitters have higher incidents of health problems.

But further, we aren't finding an increase in tumors/cancers in places where people very commonly store their non-ionizing radiation devices (pants pockets).

Taken one step further, when you step out into the sunlight, you are being exposed to several watts worth at several frequencies of ionizing (UV) and non-ionizing radiation. Orders of magnitudes more than you'd see from any device. Yet, what we see is that people that work out in the sun most commonly experience skin cancer/damage and nothing else.

The fear over non-ionizing radiation comes from ignorance and nothing more.

To your bug example, yes, if you concentrate non-ionizing radiation up to 100W+ at a single point, it'll burn that point. But that's a strawman of the situation. No wireless tech is doing that in the slightest.
You'd think the actual NUC would be the ultimate perfect WinTel machine—I mean, it's right there in the name!-but I can't even get the Windows installer to boot my NUC.

800$ in Canada, at that price point it’s impossible to justify buying it instead of an M1 Mac Mini for 100$ more as a general use machine, especially given the sorry state of Windows-ARM.

Given it’s a dev kit companies won’t care about cost, but I can’t see many being sold to independent/small developers, the excitement just isn’t there.

Although I wasn’t very hard to implement it for a subset of queries like group by, etc. - primary problem was a good OSS sql parser. We used Presto back in 2016th for that
Both REST and built-ins for OPA have been available for existing projects like OpenFGA[0] and SpiceDB[1]. In case of SpiceDB, the first built-in was actually available in June of last year[2].

Since there is a clear interest from the existing communities with mature solutions, it'd be awesome to collaborate for the graph layer. Speaking from the SpiceDB community, we'd be glad to welcome you -- this is what open source is all about!

After reading the comments in this thread it is clear that people are not current with how ECT is administered in the modern era.

1. You are under general anesthesia
2. The dosage of electricity is very low when compared to how it was done before.
3. The electrical currents are far more focused

Stuff like personality changes or loss of creativity is no longer a risk factor. Risks tend to be those associated with general anesthesia and mild memory loss around the treatment.

I had over 2 rounds of 15 treatments over a 6 month period. I haven't had a serious relapse in the 5 years since. I had tried every SSRI and SNRI my insurance would cover. I had been in therapy for over a decade. I was suicidal. ECT saved my life.
Yes but they suggest it very annoyingly. So I feel bad not rebooting.
Hello everyone. First evet HN post. I am a developer who works on POCs and pre-products generally.

Recently I have created a simple password generator tool that helped me a lot since it is not storing or intercepting anything at all.

It is not a password generated by big tech giants and it is totally unstored by any db.

And also I wanted it to be small and as fast as possible.

Please take a look to https://repasswordgenerator.com . It is totaly free to use and I am planning to create a simple tool app in a couple or days.
I've played around with stage manager and it has left me scratching my head. It seems to have so much weird whitespace.

That's like saying Moghul India and Raj India and British-era Hong Kong were "all one period" because they kind of sort of overlapped in space and time.
> Running the Dockerized version of a program turns it into a pushbutton component

Which is the point, when the goal is to self-host someone else's application.

If you're just interested in learning how networks work, or what http is, or how to write software - then sure, go tinker with apache or nginx.

If you're trying to self host, containers are great. They do exactly what you've said - applications become (mostly) pushbutton components where the contract is simple and clear (data/ports/env).

And yes - there certainly is a bit of a learning curve for containers, but I'd much rather learn containers once than have to learn the ins & outs of the 25 apps I self host. For the most part, I neither want nor care to learn how they were put together. There simply isn't enough time, and the value is low.

Again - the goal here is NOT to host a blog/website I've made. It's to self-host applications other folks have put together, and that seems to be where this reference can be valuable.

>Like for instance here in Germany, they warned us of sad winters and blackouts all around and as it stands right now, there is nothing going to happen to either power nor gas supply.

Can you elaborate on this? As an American I'm curious what your perspective is as someone who is currently living in Germany. What we're hearing (at least from commodity analysts) is that there is will be major energy supply shortages throughout Europe, particularly Germany. Not arguing one way or another - just trying to hear more perspectives.

It wouldn’t be the case for occupations that are either unattractive in terms of the actual work (coal miner, sewage worker, fisherman, undertaker) or have high barrier to entry in terms of qualifications (neurosurgeon, PhD-level scientist, lawyer, professional sports).

Carpentry is reasonably attractive in terms of actual work, so that if it payed as well as software development, many people would want to take it up. My point is that a larger portion of the population would have the necessary ability (and, I assume, inclination) to become a competent carpenter than a competent software developer.
> And I trust you're not using Zillow to estimate the value of your home.

Thank you for the laugh. Related - several years ago, I built a competitive pricing dashboard for a major US homebuilder, and it sourced Zillow for a portion of its analysis. Time-to-time, I find myself hoping they got around to using a different source.
Additionally: form fields are styled to look disabled.
No. OSM could _not_ have grown this big if we had layered everything. Far from it - the big power of OSM is the integration of all those 'layers'.

Furhtermore, layering would needlessly complicate everything.

Take a railway crossing for example. Should it go in the layer "railways", in the layer "roads" or in the layer "railway crossings"? Should we make a new layer for paths, so that they are separate from car-only roads? What if something changes? How should an object be moved from one layer to another?

What with benches that double as a piece of artwork? What about this place that is a boardgame shop, a café and a social project for mentally disabled people?

What if a river doubles as administrative boundary?

I've never had competing offers. It was my perception that some folks in or adjacent to law enforcement repeatedly abused their access to try to nudge me into some kind of "public service".

I've considered emigration, but every time I look into it, the rash of illegal behavior that follows usually takes six months to two years to recover from.

In fact, I'm putting off looking into getting into one email account at least another day because someone annoyed me so badly -- they keep making a show of setting me up with these "job interviews" that are basically free consulting sessions.

Now to be fair, I used to be kind of a narcicist, but I've learned to code, learned to hack, and gotten my health issues under control -- I lost about sixty pounds, but I keep having a string of folks either treat job interviews as free consulting sessions, or dates as chances to fish for information for... journalism or whatever?

It's a weird and frustrating pattern, so I sold some stock out of my IRA and am gonna just wander around in one of my favorite tshirts trying to brainstorm some way I could get a job.

(But until Halloween I guess I'll be... on vacation? I sometimes can't tell if people are being serious on this website, I'm having a surreal day.)
They have no better choice. Name me, today, a desktop class ARM SoC that isn't made by Apple and represents the median performance band of the class.

Fundamentally, ARM Holdings is what Antitrust legislation was supposed to break down. They own the "ARM" name and control who can license the ARM IP and most importantly, how.

Ampere, the folks behind a lot of ARM servers, are by contract barred from getting into the market of making ARM chips for phones, desktops, or otherwise. That's the form of their license: Server-grade 96-core behemoths running at 3+Ghz and with the thermal output of a small space heater.

ARM holdings sets all sorts of weird restrictions and forces market segmentation to make sure that nobody "Accidentally" makes something that they don't immediately approve of. Qualcomm is basically locked into making phone SoCs for all eternity until they renegotiate their license with ARM holdings. They're in a shit situation because they have competition all over the place (Allwinner, Rockchip, a legacy Intel series, NXP, and Samsung to name a few), letting ARMHoldings bully them into not making something that rocks the boat too hard.

Apple pulled a massive show of force in making ARM license them desktop grade chips. You see, Apple has been a license holder for ARM for a bit now (with the Ax series chips) and makes up, ballpark, 15% of worldwide phones and now >50% of US phones. Apple had already idly said "we could... you know, not use an integrated solution" when they fiddled with Intel's radio baseband.

For ARM to try and sue Apple for breach of contract for developing the Mx series of desktop class ARM processors and get away with it, they'd be putting their market share dominance in four different major markets at risk. Qualcomm can't do that.

So that leaves Microsoft, who does not want to get into the processor fabrication business and who is still reeling over the antitrust lawsuit 20 years ago (which, I'll point out, was mostly over a shared text mangling library, for what it's worth) out in the dust looking for options, and the option they get is "Whatever Qualcomm will ship them."
That's a good question! I assume that their test run is very short, like maybe a nanosecond. A petabit is 10^15 bits, which means they only needed to generate 10^6 bits (a megabit) for such a run. But even then, I'd be curious to know how you feed a laser 10^6 bits of configuration data in 10^-9 seconds! Definitely a paper I'd like to read.
Will be interesting to see changes taking place in urban planning as the new era of working from home begins to effect the urban center and suburban areas moving forward. I've noticed it in the lunch spots in my suburban town- all way more crowded than they used to be and went through a transition period where they had to get used to the new volume.

Feels like a new era of some big changes in relation to city planning. Cities will have to build housing to account for the loss in tax base of commercial real estate.
>How do you mean? Im curious as to your thoughts

They've lost any sense of maintaining a cohesive design, or keeping things sleek and convenient. Performance has plateaued to a level of diminishing returns, so the only way they can get people to buy a new phone every year since iPhone 7 is to say "hey we put a bigger camera on it".

Product ran free with that mandate, and now we have this abomination: https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/trevor-raab-ipho...

I have this recurring fantasy of an alternate history timeline where Steve Jobs never died, and when an engineer brought him the first iPhone 7 prototype, he held it in his hand, flipped it over, felt the camera bump, and said "You're fired. Get rid of the bump". I just refuse to believe he would have allowed this to happen, and I refuse to believe that we can't have good cameras without bumps.
Not sure why you are being downvoted. Julia Ioffe said that Putin is the "moderating force" in his inner circle.

I think people have so much rage against Putin (understandably) that they want all facts to point to Putin being the sole problem and fantasize about his death and it solving the current situation. It is unfortunately not so simple.
To follow that up (so people know what they actually are), what p-values represent is the likelihood we would observe our data, given the null hypothesis.

Setting a cutoff of .05 is saying “if there’s less than a 5% chance we’d see this data, assuming the null hypothesis, then we can assume that the null hypothesis is false”

Imagine for a second there are other countries in the world.

Now let's say in Europe, just one of them was called "The United Kingdom", where after a recent (temporary) energy price cap, electricity prices rose to _only_ 36p/kWh (41 cents US at current rates), and further rise are expected, and the cap had an end, bringing us potentially to double the current uni rate, then do the maths again and see why it might be a "crucial" component for many.

Running old, cheap hardware with high power usage has been impractical here and many other parts of the world for quite some time and that was before recent disastrous rises.
As is often the case with these types of things, there are serious power asymmetries that need to be considered.

My threat to terminate this voluntary relationship is that my employer will have some small amount of trouble, probably offloaded onto my ex coworkers.

I hear what they did. There are distinct generators placed in various places in the sound stage, with reverbs on them, with sound that is characteristic of granular synthesis.

Even if you are not familiar with these methods, just think about it: even if soumeone would genuinely just bring the inaudible frequencies of a recording of magnetosphic waves into audible domain by speeding it up, without any processing, where would this lush stereo imaging come from? It would be plain and simply monophonic.

Moreover, they don't quite make it secret that this is not the actual sound of the magnetosphere:

>Musician and project supporter Klaus Nielsen, from the Technical University of Denmark, explains, “The team used data from ESA’s Swarm satellites, as well as other sources, and used these magnetic signals to manipulate and control a sonic representation of the core field.
Today in the US the 3 music industry giants tax(via legally required license fees) the venues where musicians play instead of taxing the musicians for the exact same reason. The venue doesn't come and go as quickly and has a set location. Musicians change band names, people, etc often and are harder to track.

UEFI is just a (somewhat/very clumsy) C API, there's nothing particularly x86-specific about it. Obviously some aspects like access to particular devices is going to be platform-dependent, but there's no reason it couldn't be used wherever.

The question is why would you want to? Almost nothing in the UEFI world beyond core system boot is actually used in practice, and even there all the hard/interesting bits (device selection and bootstrapping, initial security and signature checks) have to happen before UEFI entry anyway. So it's all duplicated code. Your BIOS has a bunch of boot hooks that have to run before UEFI starts, then UEFI has to have all of its own drivers for storage and filesystems, just to load an OS kernel that has another driver suite.

It's all just a mess. Frankly if you want an implementation of a clean but featureful boot environment for PCs that extends across architectures, look to Chromebooks.

The Ars Technica review is thorough, and acts as a good set of "release notes", but it's published upon release, and obviously doesn't cover the stuff that devs and users discover throughout the following year.

I recommend the excellent EclecticLight blog (by H. Oakley). He doesn't try to do a comprehensive overview (you have Ars for that), but has done many technical deep-dives covering changes that haven't been talked about anywhere else, and I can't praise him enough for that.

Michael Tsai also has a great blog (mjtsai.com/blog/) that functions as a news agregator for Apple stories and commentary, and though his blog's not dedicated to only macOS, you'll find regular stories on technical details there.
Having worked with Windows on ARM in the past, I _hope_ you're right. But my experience has been that a ton of code is still going through the x86 emulation layer, which IMO is woefully lacking in performance, particularly compared to Apple's Rosetta 2 (which is a magical marvel of engineering).

What they are reffering to as "intrusions" is not just having thoughts about the traumatic event, it is having intrusive and uncontrolable toughts pop into your mind when triggered - it's very disrupting and distracting. Depending on the level of trauma, these intrusions can be debilitating.

In general, PTSD treatment involves changing one's perspective towards the traumatic event so that when triggered, the thoughts it recalls are not intrusive and debilitating - making it so the patient doesn't feel shame, fear, loss of control when trigered.

Frequency combs are derived from a single light source.

>Current fibre optic communication systems owe their high-capacity abilities to the wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technique, which combines data channels running on different wavelengths, and most often requires many individual lasers. Optical frequency combs, with equally spaced coherent comb lines derived from a single source, have recently emerged as a potential substitute for parallel lasers in WDM systems[0](2021)

So "These wavelengths are generated from an array of lasers, forming a frequency comb" is using "frequency comb" to mean something else in that sentence.
