You don't even know if the person is using a 4090 and you're already acting like a savior of some kind. It's actually wild.
I love a good prime lens. Took this with a Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 (https://roambyland.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/ss-1-of-1-...).

50mm is probably too 'in the middle' for my uses, as a 24 + 70-200 has really replaced my need for a 50, and the ability add in a little compression of the foreground with the zoom is really nice. If I had infinite space in my bags I'd have a 50 for sure.

If I was just using one camera I'd still probably want a 24 or 28 prime (ie: Leica Q2).
No, his main skill is believing that big things are possible, and then being willing to commit resources and to be patient to let those possibilities come to reality when many others are will not.
> It's one minute of work to print something

There's a bunch of comments echoing this sentiment, and I'm wondering if something's wrong with me. I'm 27 and haven't printed anything in an office... maybe ever? I've only peripherally noticed HR and office managers constantly struggle with printers. At this point, I'd probably be the one asking my parents how to print something :')
Yes loads of spam directed at individuals data harvested from linkedin in the last few months. I recently banned the domain.
My call quality also seems better since I've switched on the VPN. I do not have numerical proof of this, but it sure seems like my voice calls are crystal clear now.
One thing I don't understand (well, many, actually): why does the hole have a "one shower a week"? Is this strictly for torture? Not showering seems like a way to degrade and humiliate a person. I (sort of) understand isolating very violent prisoners from the rest of the inmates, but why is torture necessary?
>Someone appointed to a highly responsible and prestigious government role after a highly successful career, as Levine has, can hardly be described as marginalized.

Only if you are completely clueless on what marginalization means, which by the rest of your comment, it appears you are.
What wealth do you think you needed to hold to be in the 1% 100 years ago?

Can we agree that it is a lot less than today?

The 1% back then didn't have to worry about the price of milk back then either. They still have to worry about inflation though, because if they dont.if their wealth doesn't keep up with inflation they are getting less wealthy. If you have 100 million today you can't just sit back and not worry about your family ever working again, because eventually a house will cost 100 million. Then the car will, then eventually the milk will too. If you have 100 million in the bank and a pint of milk costs 100 million you are no longer wealthy, it doesn't matter what basket of goods they buy.
Of course there is. It’s in support of the narrative that people need overseers and that some people know what’s best for the world and others don’t. We live in a time where there are a couple of agendas that everyone is trying to push, it’s all deeply related
This is how Goose died.
First off at the end of a production run you are faced with a decision.

Do you preserve the production line or destroy it?

The customer paid for it so it is their property usually. They make the call.

I would bet that the tooling was not destroyed but transferred to other lines.

The jigs and fixtures used would be destroyed because it was top secret job.

Safer to destroy than preserve.

This is 100% correct.

All they know is to say "that's nice, can you do it in half the time you estimated with half the resources?" because that's the only way they can justify their job. This is what they learn in MBA school or from their project management certificates.
The problem with QR menus is not that they are inefficient, often they're very efficient. It's that it's impersonal and demeaning, the waiters are reduced to food carriers.
I actually felt some sympathy for the prisoner. He went into Prison at 19. Perhaps he was even younger when he committed murder. WTF does a teenager know about themselves or the world to kill someone?! What kind of awful childhood and upbringing environment did he experience, if any?

Of course he could be a psychopath. Or who knows. I wouldn't presume anything. But I wouldn't be so righteous feeling good about myself for not doing what he did. We're all lucky we didn't have it so bad, be it nature or nurture, or both.
I just gotta say... for a system that's supposed to diagram complexity, the website does not do a very good job of conveying how it actually works. It's like ten pages of super dense text in a weird layout that's incredibly hard to follow =/ I think this front page alone is 10x more complex than any of the diagrams I've had to make, lol.

Are there some example output diagrams that are easy enough for any stakeholder to read and understand, or do they have to read this website first before being able to consume a diagram created in this system?
Mutation testing can help evaluate the quality of a test suite. The application code is automatically tweaked and tests run. If a mutant is not "killed," then additional tests may be needed.
A full hydrogen tank contain in the area of 5kg of fuel, which is a lot less fuel than the 70-100L of fuel your car presumably has on board.

A normal range for cars these days is 500-900km on a 40-60L tank, as carrying excessive fuel is bad for efficiency. 2000km is a very impressive metric, all things considered.
We don’t know that. The Fed has been saying since 2021 they were going to raise rates. Thousands of people who get paid billions of dollars mostly missed it. Powell is either going to go down in history as someone who successfully transitioned to more normal rates or he wrecked the economy. This article isn’t the commentary of the FRB
Hydrogen is a lot harder to store, because it makes metals brittle.
> I remember kids I knew as a child who were just evil, such as cruelty to animals, violence towards females

If they exhibit all of that as kids, they need intervention as kids. This sort of stuff happens when kids are abused by their families and don't get help.

It may be unfixable at some point, but the original of it is adults in those kids lives.
I find it a bit disingenuous to have such stories without a mention of the original crime (not every murder gets one life without parole) and what got the author into isolation in the first place. Otherwise it's a bit like Godfather being a devout catholic. Nice, but are you fully following that faith of yours outside the church?

Now, it's quite possible that Michael J. Nichols was wrongly convicted, unfairly sentenced and/or is thoroughly rehabilitated and deserving a resentencing with possibility of parole. Or else a minimum security prison with outside work and other provisions to let him live decent enough life while incarcerated. I am just skeptical of stories that omit context that is highly relevant one way or the other.
Some people live most of their lives "imprisoned": maybe they're blind, deaf, paralyzed, have birth defects, chronic pain/illness. But even they value life within limitations. There is always a reason to keep going. Perspective is everything.
EV's are about 3X as efficient turning electricity into motion as hydrogen cars are. Here's a good graphic from Volkswagen laying it out very clearly.

My brain sees in 4:3 40mm, 50mm on 3:2 cameras feels too crammed
Probably a combination of torture and it must be hard work for the prison guards to escort each individual to the showers. So torture and laziness that they can get away with.
I really don’t like this line of thinking.

This is the kind of bullshit trick that many terrible, violent criminals like the Menendez bros try to pull when they get caught: “It isn’t my fault I murdered/raped/etc, my upbringing was poor.”
There's a lot of howling on HN (and elsewhere) about how awful Elon Musk is for missing deadlines and what an awful person he must be to have this terrible "character trait." But producting innovations is just hard, and Brook's Law applies. Hope the howlers read this post.

Rivian is a real company, it's not an impulsive metoo idea or fraud (like Nikola); but it has a hard road ahead as Tesla did, just somewhat shorter and not quite as rough because it's not the absolute pioneer.
It will increase cost and you need to remember which side uses which module. Bi-directional just uses different wavelength in each direction.

Generally not worth it unless you have existent infrastructure and want some more density
>There's a bit of irony in the tone of this comment since it shows no capacity for empathy for those who commit crimes, most significantly in the sense that you clearly believe that prison is for others who are not you.

If you believe that there are too many people already the death penalty for j-walking isn't a punishment it's a policy to keep the rest of us alive past 2100.
This is "filed a patent on", not "developed". They may just have a benchtop fuel cell model.

This is silly. I was robbed in the Tenderloin in December and had to spend days in the ICU. The cops won’t do anything. I have permanent brain damage and have lost all progress I made working on my C-PTSD from childhood sexual abuse.

The guys who attacked me don’t live a life of chaos. It’s a job for them and the market is the most lucrative it has ever been.
If you really want it, and are willing to pay, you can often negotiate with the building owner to get the last 20m run (up to and including conduit hidden on the outside of the building, etc).

If enough people in the building care, it might even be relatively cheap.

I still find it hard to believe that this is the same person that gave us SpaceX and Tesla.
In the most charitable interpretation, prisoners misbehave, and the guards can ensure compliance by taking away privileges. There is no reduction in sentence for good behavior, so other tools must be employed.
>yes the first coupling must bear the load of the full train

This is only the case with a standard locomotive arrangement.

The trains involved here appear to be EMUs (electric multiple units), which have motors in most of the bogies (wheel assembles). Therefore, the lead car isn't pulling the whole thing.

Even when trains aren't EMUs, often you have a "push-pull" arrangement, such as the French TGV which has a power car at each end.
You could historically get pretty fast 50mm lenses with good optical quality for relatively little. Not sure of technical reasons why 50mm fell into that standard role. If I had to pick one standard prime lens it would probably be 35mm.
The previous blog post is more explicit and reads Open Core:

But that's a general problem with these two blog posts. They leave much to interpretation. Except for one thing: Gitea Ltd is in control of the domains & the trademark and won't give them back. The days of a community led project are gone. Just like that.

It will be a pleasure to welcome you in the upcoming fork. Wouldn't you like to participate in a democratic Free Software project instead of working for free and help VC make tons of money?
“Sure, we’re moving in the wrong direction, but at least we’re not as bad as those guys yet” isn’t that comforting.

Funnily enough, I can't guess what generation you are in based on this comment. I'd argue it's pretty bad -- but not the end of the world -- for everyone from Zoomers to Gen X.
Yeah, no. Every gamer with a nosy neighbor does not need to be “protected” by people like you telling the landlord they’re going to burn the house down.

Mind your own business.
I am planning to build a similar PC, and the DB4 case is on top of my list.

I am also considering HDPLEX [1] and Cirrus7 [2] cases. The HDPLEX H1 is a bit less pretty, but seems able to cool many Xeons with its 1 kg cooper heatsink (!). Cirrus7 is somewhere in the middle, and also a bit harder to assemble. They are typically sold as ready-made systems.

From the wikipedia net neutrality page it looks like the FCC's stance has historically depended on the administration in power. There was the much celebrated 2015 change to title II, which was undone in 2017 i.e. the start of the ajit pai era. Now he is finally gone, but not before casting his vote in a 3-2 decision in 2020 to keep net neutrality dismantled. The new chair is pro-nn and working to undo the damage but it takes time.
Hahahaa

>> Guess they want you to pay for their bundled phone plan instead.

I think you are right. But I am waaaay to cheap for that. I'm using Twilio on some Raspberry Pi's with some software I wrote myself. For 3 phone numbers, I'm spending like $10 a month total.
People (in the US) purchase insurance mostly because the insurance premium is 90%+ paid by either their employer or the government. Everyone understands that the total price is a scam, but the <=10% that you pay out of pocket has an excellent ROI.
This old thing. Bluetooth is a technology that works fine for me and millions of others every single day. That is not to say it always works flawlessly. Seemingly every time I am forced to use Windows or Teams, it doesn't work. And if I had a car like the parent where it was my only option, I would also be annoyed.

But let's say I agreed with you, so us and what industry would declare it failed? Some Bluetooth consortium, i.e. the same people who make 99% of these devices with likely unbelievably buggy implementations hacked together in the minimum of time? Society at large? Consumers? Some union of software engineers?

I am very sympathetic to people's lives been made more annoying by technology that doesn't work, just as I am to people's lives being made worse by technology that does work. Unfortunately, I don't have a solution, either.

(Maybe right-to-repair could be a starting point for open-source efforts to change products where incentives don't align. Doesn't help much with firmware though.)
Humans really do have agency. Not all criminal behavior can be chalked up to bad policy or bad environment.

If cause and effect exists in human beings as they do for literally everything else, than claiming 'agency' as an excuse to do nothing is basically moral bankruptcy.

Our science is not perfect, nor is our policies, and people will fall through the cracks, but we should keep striving and trying nonetheless.
What's limiting new digital cameras from becoming faster? A decade ago a friend showed me his digital camera with an ISO setting in the thousands and I was amazed at how little noise there was. I've since been a little disappointed that I'm still balancing noise and aperture shooting indoors. Phones take on the problem with heavy image processing, but I'm interested in hardware solutions.
F-18s def are lower maintenance overall but they couldn’t go very far (important when your ship isn’t docked in Bagdad) or drop bombs in adverse weather so not very useful during a war. Doesn’t mean they are not politically useful, though. One part is made in each congressional district on purpose.
It's relevant. It's a humorous and relatable personal anecdote aka a good story. It's not offensive.
I know of at least one case where a judge was being paid by a private prison system to send people to them. I suspect that was not and is not the only case of that happening. Big money has a way of worming itself into other systems and manipulating them for its own benefit.
Middle management is not there for you. They are there to provide the same type of support to your managers, that your mangers provide to you.

Probably wouldn’t be as useful to run compute tasks on a PS5. It mostly uses off the shelf hardware so I can’t imagine it’s better than just buying say the latest AMD Ryzen or Nvidia GPU.

With the PS3, particularly the CPU, it was quite ahead of consumer CPUs at the time at least for some compute tasks. But that was an entirely custom design, console manufactures have gotten away from that ever since.
Excellent article that paints a grim picture in an understated way. To put it differently:

We've seen a huge run-up in the stock market thanks to cheap domestic and cheap foreign labor, globalization, historically low interest rates and historically low corporate taxes.

Interest rates are rising massively and globally to combat inflation.

Labor prices are increasing, globally.

There is a global decoupling thanks to the Russia/Ukraine situation and the China/Taiwan tension. This is bringing the era of globalization to its end.

Corporate US taxes have been as low as they'll get for a long time due to the TCJA and will most likely only go up from current rates.

Given all these factors combined, it's unlikely that price/earnings will hold at the current high ratio i.e. stock prices have a long way to fall still. This article was published almost two months ago, but I believe it will be relevant for the next several years. We're in for a long slow decline and then a plateau. The era of cheap labor, free money, low taxes and open global markets has come to an end.
Yes the author says specifically that it's a stretch to call it unpatchable.

Everything you just said is all covered fully in the article.
In many discussions of uniquely bad aspects to America that Europe has until now had a different and arguably better viewpoint on, there's one key fact that's always missing from many well-intentioned peoples' point of view: Europe has had a historically homogenous population within their different regions and America has not. This difference is massive for how life within prison actually works and what effects a different system might have.
Democracies succumbing to coups is a democratic process like dying is a life process. It's something the system is prone to doing sure, but after that, it is no longer the same system. To put it another way, eggs are prone to being made into omelettes, but after you do so, it is no longer an egg, and it is no longer capable of becoming a chicken; once you pervert a democracy, it is no longer a democracy, and is no longer capable of representing the people.

There's a sort of "reverse no true Scotsman" happening here because of a confusion of terms which creates the illusion of a contradiction. The claim was, "it is undemocratic for leaders to change the system in an anti-democratic way, despite being elected;" this is a claim about how democracies ought to work. Your counterclaim was, "this has happened historically in democracies" - a true claim about history, but these claims are not actually in contradiction and indeed both of them are true. Like how if I said, "cars drive on four wheels," it wouldn't be a contradiction for if you showed me a car which had three wheels because it had lost one in an accident.
You're really overplaying the financial angle. Only 8% of prisons are private. And even then, it's the government that has to pay the prisons. Imprisonment always costs tax money.
Exactly this.

A modern sedan might get 40 miles to the gallon, but only has a tank of maybe 13 gallons (for a range of 500 miles / 800km).

Meanwhile the bus gets "only" 6 mpg but has a 200-gallon tank to compensate.
What about the "Arctic Code Vault Contributor" badge?
Except that it does not work the way you imply. He wont get out merely for saying "I repent". What you are doing amount to a lie - using caricature and exaggeration of theoretical possibility.

Making rhetorical make points to make people outraged over shadows is harmful.
Agree with all of this - but the comment states that it's about keeping people like this away, not punishing them or feeling smug or anything of the sort. This guy causes real harm everywhere he goes.
It's really for two primary reasons:

1. Storing tooling, especially huge aircraft-sized tooling, has real costs associated with it. There's the physical space it occupies as well as the costs associated with keeping it from degrading. Guess who industry charges for all of this?

2. Concerns about security. If an adversary manages to surreptitiously capture images or other data on the tooling, perhaps they can get closer to developing an equivalent capability.

It's certainly possible the idea is also at play that by destroying the tooling, you prevent advocates of the current system from jamming up the process of acquiring new and improved systems. It would be great if the development and acquisition of new systems was always merit-based and rigorous, but it's often not. I'm not saying this is the case, but it could have been a fear of guerrilla advocacy from Lockheed or its advocates in the Government stymieing progress. For all its awesomeness, the A-12 family was heinously expensive to operate. If you had pressure from congresspersons or ill-informed generals to acquire more of these because of their incredible capability, but that meant you couldn't afford to improve your capabilities in other areas, you might not appreciate that pressure.
Arm is suggesting that they have language in their license explicitly preventing sale of the license.
Horizontal gene transfer is generally the transfer of functional genes between unrelated organisms, so it's a bit mis-leading to call the transfer of BovB horizontal gene transfer. BovB is a transposon, in essence a small piece of semi-autonomous DNA that jumps between DNA strands as a virus may transfer between cells. It isn't a "snake" gene.

The article mentions that BovB possibly transferred between species using viruses as vectors. The article below [0] mentions that BovB is one of the most abundant transposons in mammals.

After giving your code a quick skim, I cannot see any mistakes in your vector indexing.

However, your code is full of vector accesses without bounds checking: vec[i] instead of vec.at(i).

That's just as "unsafe" as C, so I recommend not bragging about how far you've come.

Your code is full of what is essentially unprotected C-style

*(addr + i) = ...

... = *(addr + i)

You've been writing C++ since the 1980's, but your code is full of raw pointer math, and yet... "No worries about memory safety"?

I have a feeling you'll be reaching for Valgrind or address sanitizer someday soon, just like the C programmers.
Private prison services like phone and email systems are still able to take advantage of prisoners, even in public prisons.
