well technically yes, but since it's in Rust once you have your embeddings, with some tweakings you could just store them and query them offline via ffi or wasm in an app for example. Also I am not a huge fan of maintaining python projects they often don't run after a while if I didn't properly maintain a virtual env etc never had this issue with Rust projects.
I stand corrected if that was the case. I followed WHO and Mexican predictions, and more speculative ones if the authors were honest about the speculation.
Show HN: Supertweak – a visual devtools extension for Tailwind CSS
Hi folks, I've been working on a visual devtool chrome extension for Tailwind CSS for quite some time now and just launched in recently.

It let's you tweak your website from the browser itself and copy the classes or html afterwards to paste in your IDE. It's especially well suited to try out changes quickly, but I've built most of the landing page with the help of the extension itself.

You can try it out in the landing page itself (no need to install anything).

Features:
- Click on any class (eg: px-4) and try out other values easily.

- Preview the website in responsive mode and quickly toggle between breakpoints. auto detects breakpoints set in the config.

- Quickly try out new variants. Supports arbitrary variants too.

- Lets you try out arbitrary and negative property values.

- Add, remove or re-order elements.

- Edit element attributes and text nodes

etc.

I'm excited to share it here and would love to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Not to seem unempathetic but that seems like a waste of $8B that could be put to some good. For most recipients that $1 will amount to no difference. Interesting as a logistics exercise.
OMG I forgot about FX!32. My first co-op was as a QA tester for the DEC Multia, which they moved from the Alpha processor to Intel midway through. I did a skunkworks project for the dev team attempting to run the newer versions of Multia's software (then Intel-based) on older Alpha Multias using FX!32. IIRC it was still internal use only/beta, but it worked quite well!
If the issue is his moonshot bets on AI research and metaverse that are not expected to immediately payout hurt the company by having too much headcount not contributing to short-term revenue, and core products can't support that, then he made a bad strategic decision, and the appropriate way to take responsibility for that is to remove the unique voting structure so that Mark is no longer the sole person capable of deciding the company's future strategy.

But either way, it's still inevitable that a change in strategy would entail elimination of some of that headcount.
Paris is at 49° N. Any panels will be installed with a sharp slope pointing South. Snow won't sit on a metal at that angle without extra snow catchers, much less on glass panels.
MacOS defaults to a case insensitive filesystem. Branches are just a commit tag which is just a git object which is a file??? I think? Everything is a file?
Wow, people can find a way to complain about anything. The severance benefits are insanely generous. Nobody takes a job thinking that it will be permanent, or is that a thing now? Would it have been better if he blamed the layoffs on the market? Maybe it's just a glass half empty kind of thing.
Exactly. As someone who would be very interested in this, but don't use Apple products, it's just not exciting because it's not accessible to me (I can't even test it as a user). If they wanted to write a whitepaper about it to share knowledge, that might be interesting, but given that it's Apple I'm not gonna hold my breath.
I've thought about becoming a bus driver or working in the post office. The pay and benefits are decent, and the work is important. It's not glamorous work, but they're not bullshit jobs (as David Graeber would say: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit_Jobs).

The biggest thing keeping me where I'm at is that I'm working 100% remote. If I were called into an office, I'd quit.
There are still big-endian-only ARM chips out there, and some of them are basically the only processors in their class (TMS570 in particular); while I wish they were bi-endian, big endian platforms are still alive and well.

That image evokes Best Buy more to me. They also use rectangular buildings with a blue and yellow color palette, and the visible letters s, t, and y are actually in the name of the company.

I'm not sure they have a choice. Binance is leveraged to the max with tether already; they likely can't afford to pay FTX real-world currency for the purchase. They'd have to offer tether or other vaporcoins as payment, at which point FTX might as well just keep its vaporcoins instead
None of that was socialism. It’s welfare capitalism which the entire west today has in one variant or another. Saying we should tune up regulations and/or the safety net is an entirely reasonable thing we could have a discussion about. Talking about socialism is ignorant or foolish.
Facebook making a phone would have had similar problems as VR: what would be the draw of a Facebook phone? If it's an Android phone it's just an Android phone with Facebook branding. They can't deliver exclusive features to only Facebook Fone owners as their money comes from ads so they need the broadest reach for features.

If they rolled their own OS they'd have to spend a lot of effort building and maintaining that platform. If Microsoft and Amazon can't will a third phone platform into existence Facebook definitely can't.

Their $10B metaverse spend is a waste but I think it would have been a waste on a phone as well.
> Unfortunately, many docker images are Intel only and that’s pretty hard to work with when setting up anything sophisticated. The problem is solving itself as ARM machines gain traction. But we aren’t there yet.

That's like, 20% of the problem. The larger issues come down to how awful APFS is for filesystem/disk virtualization and (moreover) the fact that all docker containers on MacOS still get run in a VM. That's not getting solved by migrating to ARM-native containers.

That was me.

Zuck said he wanted to take accountability for overhiring and then having to do layoffs. So the question is, what does the theoretical possibility of employees resigning or users leaving have to do with accountability for overhiring and layoffs?

I'd love to hear the nuanced version of the argument why it's bad, maybe I'd be convinced.
It seems like it would mostly flood the wrong side of the river to be useful to Russia.

> The flooding isn’t enough to push artillery out of range, so the damage would be to all the settlements on the south side (which are not minor, but are claimed by Russia) and to the nuclear plant up river that could loose cooling water. It would seem like more of an own goal, flooding the south side — the left bank — more than any damage to liberated Kherson.

So almost all of energy used by humans today comes (or came) from the sun, directly (solar panels) or indirectly (fossil fuels, plants, meat).

You can divide the amount of calories a human needs per day and the amount of energy is provided to earth by the sun per day and that can be the theoretical limit on how many people can live on earth if we are 100% efficient with the energy.

Of course layoffs are never pleasant and I hope and wish no one ever has to face them. But in the capitalist world we live in, they are inevitable. I am glad your brother has his job. Another sad thing about the uber capitalist society that US is, are the medical bankruptcies. In a developed country like the US, people shouldn't go bankrupt trying to avail healthcare. But that's a completely different discussion and let's not go there.
It’s more than you get in any normal place in the US, in many states you get a thank you handshake and someone holding the door for you. It’s a risk you choose to take when you work in the US instead of somewhere in Europe or some other country with better worker protections.
Quite the interesting question, that.
AFAIK faster and cheaper DEXes keep coming out every few months but not on Ethereum; they're either on L2s or faster chains like Avalanche.

You're mentioning that as if blockchain somehow solved this problem. It doesn't. At best, blockchain moves trust around and you end up with a system that won't resist the test of time and end up converging to what you already have, but worse.

Anybody know if Docker has plans to move from qemu to Rosetta on M1/2 Macs? I've found qemu to be at least 100x slower than the native arch.
Since this is the company's third big arch transition, cross-compilation and compatibility is probably considered a core competency for Apple to maintain internally.

>Over the next decade, designers at Nerf, a division of Hasbro, came up with fanciful models shaped like bats, piranhas, and spiders. What they didn’t look like were weapons of war.

While they're definitely more abstractly modeled, I think pre 9/11 nerf look more like Sci-Fi weapons of war than spiders. The Pulsator for example is a pretty close to the Quake nailgun visually and in function, and the arrowstorm similar to the super nailgun. Like the article mentions previously most toy guns were as realistic as possible, like the Entertech water guns from the 80s.

IDK on FFMPEG, but for sure MPlayer had altivec support from the G4 days.

Also, pair a good video card with XV/XVMC support.

Commerical Nerf guns don't even hold a candle to the DIY builds. The easiest type is a muzzle loader that accelerates a weight into a piston. A more advanced one has a rotating drum of muzzles advanced and fired by compressed air.

Apparently these days it's possible build magazine fed nerf guns but most designs require a different sort of Nerf projectile where the suction cap is a smaller diameter than the foam body - otherwise there's no easy way to build a feed system. Back when I was a kid we only had the traditional style.
This is the kind of take that could fearfully explain why a national corporation like like McDonald's would be able to corner the food supply to raise prices, then buy up restaurant sites to prevent others from using them. Or how billionaires could purchase all the tickets at Disney World so no one else can go.

Sure, you _could_ waste all your money on villainous anticompetitive practices, but it's more profitable to a) provide a service where you have an efficiency advantage b) only purchase things you need, bidding at the margin, where people don't mind selling to you.

I would expect a system where Open Door is active to be better for consumers and investors than the incumbent system you represent.

If we had one for binance, it would show a ridiculous amount of tether and other coins which they probably own a majority of, meaning their balance sheet is similarly comprised of assets they can't actually price or expect to be able to sell at market value
I've read the manual several times, but it reads to me more like an in progress design document filled with implementation details, not things an end user should need to even be aware of. I get by fine with 5 or so memorized commands.

I made a list of other version control systems I've used in the past and out of the 7, I can only remember one that was complicated enough from an end user perspective to require reading a manual(ClearCase).
Generally not a fan of Atlassian, but I can't say Confluence search has been a problem, I have more problems searching within Google Workspace (if its still called that this week).
Also worth pointing out that Stremousov, Deputy Head of Kherson region, died today in a supposed car accident (it is told the driver survived). Here’s the acting governor of Kherson confirming it [1]. It smells like the Russians taking out one of their non-cooperating assets, they have done that post-2014 in Donetsk. I guess we’ll have to wait for more details.

Let me just add:

> it messes with the caching strategies in place today and makes diagnosing problems harder.

ISPs will do the most boneheaded things to your traffic if it is not encrypted. There was a time when Comcast liked injecting random HTML into pages. I'm sure this guy has never had to "diagnose problems" resulting from an ISP rewriting HTML on the fly. Nowadays with TLS, ISPs are mostly out of the picture and the surface area for problems is dramatically smaller.
But they've been on x84_64 for a long time. How much of that knowledge is still around? Probably some traces of it have been institutionalized but it isn't the same as if they just grabbed the same team and made them do it again a year after the least transition.
There couldn't be less of a direct chain of death between you and the animal. If you don't order that steak its still in the inventory of the restaurant. If you don't buy it at the store its still at the store. If demand actually drops like a stone, I wouldn't be surprised if cows were still killed hand over fist and their bodies turned into mere fertilizer, because a well developed industry is not just going to willingly cease to exist overnight. Once the industry exists and is politically entrenched consumer action can do little to remove it. Take corn for example. We produce so much corn that a huge portion of the crop is converted to ethanol for lack of a better use, and farmers still grow this corn knowing its not going to do much good or feeding that many people, because the industry is entrenched and protected by strong subsidies and costs are high to convert to some unknown industry. We produce so much milk that rather than scale back production when we overproduce for demand, we just dump it into the drain.

If you want to enact the change you expect to enact by going vegetarian, then move to a district with a slaughterhouse and show up to local government meetings every day to raise hell until such land use is made illegal in this jurisdiction. If you rely on consumer demand alone, industry will just find either nonconsumer demand or will use its ability to strongly influence government to keep it in existence in perpetuity.
The most shocking thing about this situation to me is that he didn't get an attorney involved after 2 months without pay. 2 months is generous.

Show HN: Hypertest - A test runner for developers with ADHD
TL;DR: a test runner focused on making devs w/ ADHD happy.

Hello HN! My name is [redacted], a dev with ADHD.

I believe there's different design constraints on tooling for devs with ADHD compared to their "normal"counterparts. That's what I'm here to solve.

I gathered experiences of other ADHD devs, to summarize: (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33280461)

- Memory: People w/ ADHD have horrendous short term memory (hard to keep grasp of the current *thing/task*)

- Distraction: Are easily distracted, tend to fall off the focus wagon easily.

- Boring Maintenance: They need and use lists, but are bad at maintaining them.

AFAIK based on the data from coinmarketcap virtually all trading happens on CEX. Someone prove me wrong.
Can you expand on what that 90% is? I'd guess more the other way around.

Squash merges are perfect to me for the bulk of PRs- atomic test-passing iterations on the working product. Exactly what I want to see in my history. Useful for bisection. Good for reviewing line-based code changes as I can find all the related work for that feature.

They don't seem appropriate for long lived feature branches, or merging into release branches, but those aren't really being discussed here.

He was trying to get in on the Twitter deal too, for up to $5b. Elon was skeptical.

Michael: Sam Bankman Fried is why I'm calling https://twitter.com/sbf_ftx/status/1514588820641128452 https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/recode/2021/3/20/22335209/s... https://ftx.us

Elon: ??

Elon: I'm backlogged with a mountain of critical work matters. ls this urgent?

Michael: Wants 1-Sb. Serious about partner w/you. Same security you own

Michael: Not urgent unless you want him to fly tomorrow. He has a window tomorrow then he's wed-Friday booked

Michael: Could do $5bn if everything vision lock. Would do the engineering for social media blockchain integration. Founded FTX crypto exchange. Believes in your mission. Major Democratic donor. So thought it was potentially worth an hour tomorrow a la the Orlando meeting and he said he could shake hands on 5 if you like him and I think you will. Can talk when you have more time not urgent but if tomorrow works it could get us $5bn equity in an hour

Elon: Blockchain twitter isn't possible, as the bandwidth and latency requirements cannot be supported by a peer to peer network, unless those "peers" are absolutely gigantic, thus defeating the purpose of a decentralized network.

Elon: ["disliked" "Could do $5bn ..."]

Elon: So long as I don't have to have a laborious blockchain debate

Elon: Strange that Orlando declined

Elon: Please let him know that I would like to talk and understand why he declined

Elon: Does Sam actually have $38 liquid?

Michael: I think Sam has it yes. He actually said up to 10 at one point but in writing he said up to 5. He's into you. And he specifically said the blockchain piece is only if you liked it and not gonna push it. Orlando referred Sams interest to us and will be texting you to speak to say why he (Orlando) declined. We agree orlando needs to call you and explain given everything he said to us and you. Will make that happen We can push Sam to next week but I do believe you will like him.

The Qualcomm situation is based on breaches of a specific agreement that ARM had with Nuvia, which Qualcomm has now bought. It's not a generalizable "ARM thinks everything they license belongs to them fully in perpetuity" deal.

Esther Crawford, who seems to be heading lots of the new changes said "There are no sacred cows in product at Twitter anymore. Elon is willing to try lots of things -- many will fail, some will succeed. The goal is to find the right mix of successful changes to ensure the long-term health and growth of the business."

It was rumored that all product changes are going through Musk, does this mean he changed his mind or was this one that slipped through his decision making somehow. Anyone have any insight into the kind of feedback that would have left to them determining that the official label was a failure?
