Right, REW is not a cure-all. Speaker selection and placement are orders of magnitude more important than anything else.

After that comes room issues. Surprisingly I think most residential rooms are decent, acoustically, because they tend to be filled with padded furniture and such and aren't overly reflective in obnoxious ways. Also most people aren't running massive subwoofers and if they are, they generally know what they're getting into. With all that said, I think REW is great for cleaning up the rest.

If all people did was pay attention to speaker selection and placement, I think most people would wind up with a very good listening situation.

And if all people did was pay attention to speaker selection and placement and clean up the remaining issues with REW, I think most people would wind up with a great listening experience.

> the affected cars have problems with their power-steering assist system when driving on rough roads or after hitting a pothole. The issue would leave drivers without the assistance to move the steering wheel with the help of the electric technology, forcing drivers to use a lot of force to move the steering wheel

While not a recall in the sense of having to surrender your car back to an official shop, this is far from an improvement. It's reasonable to expect any car built in the last 50 years to operate as normal after hitting a pothole.

There’s a difference between my laptop being updated and my car.
I think it's because there's a divide between the public's understanding of the word recall and the technical meaning in the automotive industry. The media likes to play on that to make it more scary than it should.
Agree that dreambooth is the future. I'm building an app that lets users with no technical background train their own dreambooth models for $2-$4: https://synapticpaint.com/dreambooth/info/ They can also share their trained models for others to use.

Here are some potential use cases:

- for fun (giving yourself a makeover, inserting yourself into famous movies)

- cheaper way to get studio photos (wedding photos, professional headshots for actors/models)

- easy way to create marketing assets. Like if you own an etsy store and don't want to engage a marketing studio, instead just create a dreambooth model of your necklace or whatever and create high quality product photos

There are probably a bunch of other use cases. I think making this easy (no figuring out how to do a git pull or rent a gpu) plus the community sharing aspects will make this technology a lot more accessible to artists and general users, and then the users will be doing all kinds of cool things with it organically.
The 5 year breakeven inflation rate today is 2.61% Since Treasury Inflation Protected Securities didn't exist in the 70s we can't compare, but the market thinks inflation is not going to continue like it did in the 70s.
I dont know the law here, but it seems you can ask to review your contract, and insist that they include a minimum employment term or guarantee a severance package. They have two ways to say no. They can fire you then, in which case you get the severance, or you're free to look for another job in the period before they're no longer legally obligated to give you severance.

It seems that you should take as much advantage as possible of your legal status.

> It doesn't matter what you set your DNS TTL to, so you might as well make it low for your own sake.

That's a weird conclusion. My conclusion would be that you can't force low TTLs for everyone or even most users to you don't can't use them to allow for quick changes and may as well let everyone else benefit from caching too.

I feel you.
Because "oh shit power steering is gone" has not been an issue on any other car since the early 1990s unless your care came with no power steering initially. And because "oh shit power steering is gone because I hit a pothole" is not something you want improved, it's something that should never fucking happen and would never happen on any modern car.
The mainstream media have been pretty late to crypto, but they have also been easily fooled or paid into writing crypto-positive stories.
Oh, obviously you need to know what you are doing.

Auto Detailing Company Recalls Hand Sanitizers That May Contain Methanol
It was purely a software bug (and fixed already):

"The problem began when Tesla rolled out an update for a new calibration value for their electronic power assist steering system only to have alerts about the update a week later, according to the NHTSA.

Tesla has released a firmware update to recalibrate the issue already. According to Tesla, 97% of the recalled vehicles had an update installed that addressed the issue. There have been no official reports of injury linked to the potential loss of steering assistance."
Not that this isn't a very interesting point re: open systems, I fail to see how it's relevant to the post, which is clearly just reverse engineering a "party mode" feature which was made as part of 7th Discord's birthday.

Right elsethread I said that it is both about optimizations and static analysis. That's a static analysis case.
Another problem is the bank run that this narrative created.
Because what’s happening here is “Tesla remedies manufacturing defect in accordance with law.” That’s how recalls work.

I think OTA recall implementations are a terrific innovation, and far better than the old system of taking your car to a dealership (though the other automakers are adapting - I got a call the other day offering to send a tech to my house to apply the fix for a recall on my car). But fixing a defect in the car at the manufacturer’s expense is, quite literally, the bare minimum required.
Do you do this at the end of the day or throughout the day?

Is a firmware update considered a ‘Recall’?

E.g. Ford recalled 200k SUVs alone due to fire risk: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/ford-r...

In Ford’s case, it seems like a recall involved a dealer checking for a manufacturing defect.
Criticizing crypto isn't the same thing as running crypto scams. This is a false equivalence. If more people had stood up to this dumb fad earlier, we'd all have been better for it.

I'll preface this by saying I'm not claiming you personally are doing this, but I've noticed a shift in the tactics of the crypto hucksters now that the shine has worn off. They'll concede that the current landscape is "mostly scams" (or at least, that it is marred by some "bad apples") while touting some vague future utility that crypto will eventually unlock. The claim here is that the skeptics are somehow wrong for dismissing this potential.

Yet instead of making any specific claims about valid use cases, they'll attack the critics for going "too far" in their critique of crypto, to try and sew a seed of doubt and leave the door open.

I've been watching this space for ages. I see literally nothing with any utility here, and it all looks like scams (or, somewhat more charitably, casino chips) to me. I don't see why we should demand that anybody hedge on this assertion and I applaud anybody who was willing to stand up to the madness back when it wasn't quite so fashionable to do so.
It makes sense, but why can't they provide economic incentives so people naturally do what's best? Maybe some plan to buy electricity from urban surfaces, which will include car parks? With the current plan, people will throw up crap that enables them to check the box without helping anyone.

Saying you take responsibility is about clearing the workers of fault, it's not about thing you will reform or somehow suffer more than they will.

I am creating a trading bot from scratch and would like to know what you find is missing.

Ask HN: Anyone chase bug bounties for a living?
I've been looking into whether I could do some bug (security) bounties on the side to make some extra cash, but I might be out of my depth. I'm having trouble picking a place to look. Do I go for the big payouts that will take more time/knowledge, or go for smaller ones?

I wanted to see if anybody here is able to make a living out of it and ask some questions:

* How do you pick a target?
* How often do you find bugs?
* How good are the rewards?

Thanks!
I had a 400MHz model that I hand overclocked to 800MHz by re-soldering the multiplier on the processor. That thing ran perfectly for over 10 years as my main PCI Pro Tools system. 2001-2010. RIP you beautiful grey beast.

> Rikers was opened in 1932. It's seen far higher crime rates than this year's.

This makes my point. Rykers has almost double the capacity of the 4 proposed jails combined.
I survived two rounds of layoffs in 2008/2009 and they went as you describe. The first round had significantly better benefits. Which, ironically, ended up going to the worst performers.

That said, the company where I experienced the layoffs was losing money and the first layoff was 2-3% of the workforce. Meta is still quite profitable and they are axing well over 10% of their employees. I would think another big round of layoffs is unlikely unless Meta has a bunch of debt coming due or the macro conditions REALLY go in the crapper (and there sure are a lot of doomsayers out there).
> Marginal parking lots shouldn't be built, only the ones that are truly needed.

Well, in France there are not enough parking spots already. Office buildings with less than a spot per 10 workers are the norm. Most old housing in cities don't offer any parking spot. It's not for nothing one of the ways to get started on the property ladder are parking spots.
I have been thinking about this, and wondering if there is a different way to organize everything that needs attention in a way that doesn't drown out that channel in noise.

I feel like I want something like social media where I can subscribe to notifications and alerts that are important to me. I wanna be able to browse a high level "news feed" of my events where I can easily drill into related data or documents. In the case of application metrics or alerts it would be extra nice to have some visibility into metrics and alerts that have no subscribers to validate that we have coverage.

Here is their definition: "A Pigouvian tax [...] is a tax on a market transaction that creates a negative externality, or an additional cost, borne by individuals not directly involved in the transaction."

The "additional cost" is a clarification of the "negative externality", not a condemnation of the "tax on a market transaction". I suppose it's ambiguously constructed as a sentence and we can read into it what we will.

I can't think of a single useful product from Amazon, Apple and currently Netflix. But I use stuff by Google and Meta daily.
I meant that they are processed before any syntactical analysis, so they're not particularly useful for this kind of thing. For example, these are all wrong usages of our hypothetical `#pragma unreachable`:

void foo();
#pragma unreachable
class bar
{
#pragma unreachable
};
namespace foobar {
#pragma unreachable
}

But pragmas can generally be used anywhere, barring tokenization issues. The end result is that `pragma unreachable` would likely end up turning into a magic function call inside the compiler, since it really only makes sense in a spot where you can invoke a function.

Also, I think you are conflating pragmas with `__attribute__`, which is how you set per function optimization settings. If you do that with pragmas, then it isn't limited to a single function.

It's wild to me that a CEO can simultaneously take responsibility for the decision to over hire, and also suffer none of the financial consequences. In fact, META stock is up 7% on this news, so Zuck has made money on this decision.

I think that's a major inefficiency in modern corporations. Executives are the last to face consequences when they make a bad decision.
Also, if you haven't experienced it, steering a car with failed power steering is much harder than a car that just doesn't have it, because you are fighting the hydraulics. Last time I had to do this it took all my strength and I had to brace myself against the door, just to turn into a garage. So the scenario addressed by the recall can effectively disable the vehicle.

> Even worse than that, they're locked up indefinitely before trial.

Not painting with a large brush but a lot of them are very dangerous and it seems, with reform bail they let the door open to a lot of violent crime, at least here in NY it's shot up through the roof. I'm definitely for reform but reform done responsibly and not rushed either, because I could see this backfiring even worse.
There is nothing automated about originating those alerts. The actual procedure for transmitting the alert is manual. The incident has to meet state criteria including likelihood of harm to the child, criminal activity, information about the vehicle and other facts.

A missing child in a custody dispute alone is rarely enough to trigger an alert.

One of the leading types of child abductions leading to alerts is vehicle theft with a child in the vehicle. Not a custody dispute.
I ordered a G4 450MHz pretty much the day they were announced. After some back and forth with the dealer, I was sent two machines - one with 450MHz as originally announced, and one with the same specs, but only 400MHz as initially shipped. Somehow, my dealer was able to get a few of the initially very rare machines with the original specs, and I was lucky enough to get one. I don't really recall why I had been sent two machines, but I know that I was instructed that this would happen, and I had to look at the specs printed on the box and send back the slower one.
They moved on, the company got hurt.

It's not an individual employees responsibility to get the company to make good decisions.

A lot of people don't agree. But I feel category theory is the Maxwells Equation for software.

What is the shortest distances between two points? A straight line. I calculate the solution to that problem. I don't design it. What's the best way to travel between two points? Do I take a car or plane? Which is cheaper, faster, or more comfortable? I can't calculate a solution because the problem is to complex. Instead I design the solution to the problem. That is the fundamental difference between design and calculation.

Whenever you use the word "design" you are operating in a zone where humans have no foundational optimization theory. You are guessing, using your instincts, your common sense and your gut to find solutions for the problem. It's unlikely you'll hit the most optimal solution, but you can very likely arrive at a "good" solution.

If you squint, Category theory looks to fill this gap for designing programs. Depending on how you look at it, category theory looks like a fundamental theory on how to organize code. It can be thought of as a fundamental theory on abstraction or a fundamental theory on interfaces.

Maybe another way to put it is that the concept of interfaces are the maxwells equations of software..

Even turing machines/lambda caculus seem oddly specific let alone lisp. If we want something fundamental and general I think Category theory is it.

My guess is, if the advancement of computer science was allowed to play out for centuries and we got rid of all the historical baggage, some form of category theory would lie at the heart of it all.
Well, yes. That's why bonds have a positive and also variable yield. I guess the parent poster doesn't understand the difference between yield and coupon.

Some (large) companies have bus services. Often that's to do the connection between a train station and their office.

Zuckerberg has complete voting control of Facebook. Nobody can remove him as CEO.

If this sort of thing bothered Zuck, he would not lay people off.
This nervousness is what companies rely on to keep the ship steady during massive lay-offs.

In other words that same company that in its heyday relied on the person pulling an all-nighter 'for the good of the company' yet failed to ever offer a reciprocal 'sure, take all the paid time off you need buddy' in return gets what it earned.

Although you may hear the 'rats from a sinking ship' and 'you're deserting the company and leaving your colleagues to pick up the slack' shrieked from on down high by management - Fuck 'em. They didn't actually give a shit about you on the way up and they don't give a shit about you on the way down.
