Okay you're bringing up a whole lot of things here.

To address your main question: no.

Now to address the rest of what you say:

What's your budget for a ThinkPad? Why do you want a ThinkPad in particular? Saying an i5 processor is meaningless. What model? Like i5-10210U. That seems like a really big SSD for a laptop that would be of the era to still only have two cores and 8 gigs of RAM. Yes that could be enough power for beginner to intermediate programming.

Additional processor cores can't be emulated on storage. The only reason storage could be used as swap is because there is no difference between storage and RAM except one is volatile and the other one isn't. A processor isn't storage although it has storage on it in registers and cache.

You're getting way ahead of yourself with the third paragraph there and I suggest that you go and relearn the fundamentals of how computers work before you even approach any of this next stuff.
Interesting.

I sometimes look for a 990/10 or /12 on eBay but I haven't seen any in years. I think bitsavers.org has some software for the 990 series, like DX-10 and some language systems.
> we totally forget that people specialising in vetting people, like investment funds, journalists and so on, completely fell for the guy.

This is not an excuse for assuaging due diligence. And to be frank, the guy looked shifty. Even worse, a cursory look at his company would have told you he was shuffling billions of dollars in investments and user deposits without a board of directors. If it quacks like a duck...

It would do a lot of people well to assume that anybody portrayed as a wünderkind or super genius in the media is anything but and cautiously invest their time, money, and attention in them accordingly.
> Yes, the memory overhead will be higher, but big enterprise corps do not care about adding 4/8/16 extra GB RAM to host your Java / C# app.

Stuff like this is the reason why functional programming is synonymous with inefficiency and why Real Programming™ is still done in languages like C.
There is simply no excuse for this entire concept of this mode of operation for a terminal.

There is no such thing as a good and well-intentioned and safe-trust-us way to do it. The fundamental concept is offensive from the outset.

There is no nice and honest and integrity way to do a fundamentally bad thing.
> I defy anyone to stay balanced and keep riding free wheel if the power suddenly cuts out.

Does the wheel actually freewheel if the power cuts? I've not played with one (yet), but with the reports of them dipping forward, I was curious if the wheel/motor actually locked up.
I specifically meant no reason abortion being limited. Of course, medically necessary abortions should be legal at any time. Sorry for not spelling it out properly.
I applaud any bad press on InfoSys.
I picked up contract gig through them a few years ago. Here are some of the takeaways from my short lived experience:
- It took them over two weeks to send me a computer.
- They cancelled PTO for everyone. (this was the most egregious single thing they did)
- They had absolute worst internal site for accessing HR documents and accessing personal resources. Just a maze of links. You could only access it via Internet Explorer (I swear I'm not joking). Everything took forever to load. It was like stepping back into 1997.
- When I gave my 2 week notice, they refused and said I 'owed' them at least a month. LOL not sure how they think they can control people like that. I gleefully told them to 'deal with it'. This happened about 45 days after I started as it became obvious very quickly how bad this company treats people.
Unfortunately the CPSC warning is too vague to know if this is people pushing the device past its documented limits or the device failing within the standard limits.
You’re right. But the feds moves will lead to less spending and increased savings, which will result in economic contraction and the loss of employment. A 10% drop in purchasing power is painful, 100% is catastrophic.
On my phone, I use "Notepad - simple notes" aka "Notepad Free" by atomczak. According to the app store, it has ads, and some people have reported seeing them, but in my several years of using it for free, I've never seen one. It's a basic notepad which is perfect for my needs

When I used a Samsung Galaxy Note, I would use S Note which was similar, though it had the benefit of using the stylus, which I kind of miss having

On my computer, I'll either use Sublime Text or vim, depending on which context I'm working in
Feel free to reach out (my handle has links). I generally prefer keeping it out of the limelight.

May or may not be able to work with me, but always happy to expand my network.
Taking 1% of US statistics for NYC, there should be around 1100 car fires, with 4 deaths. I'm not sure those deaths would be clearly identified as a car fire as opposed to a generic fatal accident. A fire in a tunnel, basement parking lot or engulfing multiple cars, OTOH.
Cool, but it's static. Would be awesome if it mixed it up a little.
It is not clear if those systems can just decode "seen" and not also "imagined".
Idk, maybe I just speak bot but it seems obvious from the wording that the app needs to split out its "report" button into "report content" and "report user". I don't think they need to do different things, but it will check the box of

> We confirm that your app has options to report and block abusive users but your app does not contain functionality to report objectionable content.

To be clear, I don't think this will actually make the Play bot go away and not keep coming back with bullshit, but it will trigger the bot to generate new bullshit which will almost feel like progress, if your soul has already been destroyed.
This isn't intuitive to me. If one big tractor has a failure, the whole operation shuts down. If 1/1000 drones breaks, swap in a spare and move it to some kind (potentially automate-able) repair area. If the ideal number of drones is 1000 operationally, you just need to figure out how much of a margin of extra reserves you need to keep things operating. But even with a .1% lower capacity, you'd probably not notice anything, especially compared with 100% lower capacity.
> You're right, there is no way to cryptographically prove that there are no contracts external to the blockchain.

But there is a very easy way to prove that there are not contracts external to the blockchain.

That's the whole point of an audit.

And it's very telling that they don't want their books audited, but repeatedly point to a clearly incomplete (from the perspective of someone who is concerned that the business might go under) as proof of solvency.
HN is the only useful escalation mechanism at this point, so have an upvote.
Just put the tarp over a platform with some wheels, and a track. Problem solved
This is very interesting, as a Data Eng, I'd love to see what they are doing with the huge volume of data they collect.
Why can't life skills, especially ones that could be lead to injury, be explained instead of each person having to make the mistake before they learn it?
Specifically, FTX had a margin pool facility. Clients could specify the assets (not just dollars, but also Bitcoin, tether etc) that they wanted to lend in their wallet. Along with APR. It was strictly opt in.

The system also reported small amounts ($400m) last time I checked.

This misrepresentation is fraud.
Such systems are illegal in my state (Wisconsin) except for special circumstances (e.g., hospitals).
So basically you get most of your comp at 2 years? So crank hard for 2 years and then bounce?
The billion-dollar meeting for the mega-rich who want to live forever
Yes that is reasonable. What I know is from an account by a relative here in Spain, and it depends on the lawyer. Of cours, infinitessimal amounts compared to the money being talked about here
Do you have criteria though?

According to this article [0], it's pretty vague (Montessori isn't trademarked and tough to enforce) and not all schools stick to the "classic" Montessori methods, which, I guess there's a handful of certification bodies (in the US).

To this point,

> Out of more than 4,000 so-called Montessori schools across the country, only 1,250 are affiliated with the American Montessori Society (and only 204 are AMS-accredited) and about 220 are recognized by AMI.

There was this NPR piece talking about Texas letting anyone graduating top of their high school to get college tuition. It didn’t matter how good the school itself is, compared to other schools.

It turned out that the kids who want to do well within their high school had a better chance of doing well in college, even if they had to take catch-up courses or get peer tutoring.
If people who claim Musk is playing a four dimensional chess game turn out to be right, then I cannot help but guess that his end-goal must be to stress the importance of unionizing.
If I were able to stomach this idea at all, I would just replace my terminal with Alexa or Gooogle Assistant not this.
It's not clear from the screenshot that the "Report" button is reporting content rather than a user, especially when it's listed right under "Block user". (Also keep in mind the viewer of the image has no idea how you brought up that popup, like whether you tapped someone's name or their comment, so that context is missing.) I would just make that clear in the app + screenshot by calling it "Report post" or "Report comment" or something like that.
Given what I've seen during the pandemic, I'd think that part of the reason people feel overwhelmed is related to commutes. Getting an extra hour back in my day made me feel better. I'm not sure if working 5 days a week, but only 6.333... hours would have the same effect as working 8 hours a day for 4 days a week where you also have one less hour of commute time per day. On the 5th day, if you don't go into work, you don't just have 8 fewer hours of work, you also have 1 fewer hour of commuting.
Is that from w first era that he changed his mind? The language divide is not that exact and stair in fact cannot be throw away. As there could be a stair?
I think at least one thing worth a try is: make a tiny, relatively inconsequential change, and submit it again.

If you had a 93% success ratio before, you've got pretty good odds that you'll get a new reviewer on the next update and it'll be approved.

Maybe something like the copy change puffoflogic recommended. Just make any tiny change in the area, re-submit the app, and hope you get lucky with a better reviewer.
How much does the energy cost? Having this as a standard feature would be a terrible, terrible idea. The disruption to the environment would be immense.
> If we succeed with autonomous driving ....

'We' have already succeeded in autonomous driving in agricultural and mining domains - these are much simpler, more tightly controlled and less liability prone than open highways and suburban backstreets.

eg:

> We run more than 130 autonomous trucks, part of our Autonomous Haulage System, across our Iron Ore operations. The trucks are operated by a supervisory system and a central controller, rather than a driver. The system uses pre-defined GPS courses to automatically navigate haul roads and intersections and knows actual locations, speeds and directions of all vehicles at all times.

> In 2018, each truck was estimated to have operated on average 700 hours more than conventional haul trucks, with 15% lower costs – delivering clear productivity benefits. They also take truck operators out of harm’s way, reducing the risks associated with working around heavy machinery.

That changeset needs to come with an easter egg that says "Fuck you Anthonyyyy!" if triggered.
It's not slander unless it is false, and it is not false.

And yes, the second part of your comment was what my comment was alluding to. My guess is that they will treat someone who stole billions of dollars less poorly than they do someone espousing beliefs in the biological intellectual superiority of white people over black people.

You are reading a value judgement into my comment that I never made, my comment is entirely descriptive and non-normative.
ASX kills off blockchain-based exchange replacement
Sounds similar to a 'jhana' state in Buddhist meditation. My understanding is that there are layers/steps of meditation practice and the higher level ones may allow such states; people can sometimes find themselves temporarilly jumping up a few layers and getting such experiences.

After some articles recently about this on AstralCodexTen I'm reading 'The Mind Illuminated" to try and decide for myself if such "unfalsifiable internal states" exist.
Map Men definitely took off. Over 1M per video for the past few years. They (he?) just don't make enough videos to grow as fast as Tom's channel. YouTube rewards consistency A LOT.
Everything is about standardized tests, american schooos are depressing, and as an european who studied at OSU, but had other friends who went to MIT and Ucla and other famous universities, I think americans immensely overrate the quality and difficulty of american universities.

To us, it was impressive how simple tests and exams were, I saw ridiculous things like professors uploading test exams which contained like 90% of the questions.

To me it was absurd.
Most cross browser bugs are CSS and yes, you still have to test that. The problem is not JS
Yeah thinking too much about what you are doing can lead down weird thought spirals. Whereas just accepting it as another different ~3 hour experience will pay dividends.

It's a common misconception that you need a ML or robotics PhD to work in the field. There are plenty of frontend & backend web engineering, data engineering, and infrastructure/devops roles available at robotics companies - you don't need to be a domain expert.

For example, at Foxglove[0] we are building open source web-based visualization and data management for robotics (shameless plug: currently hiring).

That was the Governor's recommendation in Massachusetts, when they overran their snowplowing budget.

It's since been known, at least in my family, as the Dukakis method.

I'm using it ATM with a couple of inches of slush.
> I think the wealth based requirement for fundraising is ludicrous and it deprives retail investors of potential life changing returns.

Unfortunately, they are more likely to suffer life changing losses.

I’m no fan of big government but a simple analysis shows that these requirements are in place specifically to protect people from the kinds of shenanigans that are rampant in the cryptocurrency sphere.

It’s almost like these sorts of things happen so often to basically financially illiterate people that the government finally stepped in and did something about it. Probably be better to teach financial literacy but that’s a bridge too far, the politicians wouldn’t be able get away with half the stuff they do.
As a little side project I wrote an Android app and went through similar turmoil—guess I can’t feel too bad for myself when the cofounder and lead developer of “~100” apps runs into similar issues. In this vein, I too wrote a similar story and it’s at https://medium.com/@mtc.dev/my-first-android-app-story-331c9....
I love this vision and hope it becomes the dominant telos for all of the work underway in this area. In addition to "beautiful farm," imagine a world where farms, parks, wildlife preserves, decarbonization centers, and biological research hubs are all the same place? No reason these swarms can't be optimizing/managing a native ecosystem food-forest with high yield in mind... and likewise easy to imagine unobtrusive, silent robots that don't stand in the way of the ecosystem's normal functioning.
This sounds insane.

What fun is it being a kid if you can't explore? That was the only really good part, otherwise childhood and adolescence is mostly suffering.

Wasted youth.

This whole app store thing with Apple/Google is BS. Imagine if your car could only drive to locations approved as safe by the car manufacturer, and they could auto-ban your Grandma's house with no recourse.
Montessori is a very different approach. Plenty of Asian tiger moms who care about education, but they don’t necessarily use the Montessori approach, at home or otherwise.
I went hiking in Costa Rica and took only about 2g. The trees swaying while hiking near a dormant volcano top were just something to look at.
The fact that I can still access tornado cash website through IPFS and dAppnet does imply it is more accessible and censorship resistant. We are talking about ENS pointing to an IPFS website here, not the smart contract addresses that the ENS points to.

In mastodon, if the impersonator is self hosting the impersonating domain, your only solution is to complain to the registrar or try to get support from other instances to block the domain. The same mechanisms of getting clients and servers to block requests happening in the censor resistant protocol does happen in ens and crypto based systems, if criminal behavior is involved or heavy moderation is wanted.
A problem with pinning is that it doesn’t only freeze features, ensuring that the features you need will be available forever, but also bugs, in particular security bugs, ensuring that security bugs you have today, but that you and possibly even the entire world are unaware of, will stay around forever.
>he's only been in cryptocurrencies five years or so

Crypto has only seriously been around for 10-15 years. This is somewhat like saying “he’s only been a react dev for 5 years”
Aren't kids nowadays being taught Batua in school? doesn't that help with the regional differences, or is it just a problem for the older generation?

Really cool tech but I'm very curious if/worried that this will spawn some half-working interrogation tools.
My point was about CPS's investigation, not the police response. Given that the police arrested their mom, you want CPS involved, and if they're involved, they ought to do some degree of investigation, if for no other reason than so they can STOP being involved.
True, but both of those examples were written for the general public, where the authors might intentionally be using “symptom” in its colloquial sense to be better understood. So it’s hard to draw conclusions about how the same authors would use “symptom” when writing for a medical audience.
Heck I was riding the U-bahn at age 11
If there’s a lot of money to capture I will expand by businesses to capture it if capital is cheap. This causes competition, which causes prices to drop as demand has more options to purchase.

There is just a while by the way. Increasing interest rates is a very indirect way to manage inflation. You essentially stimulate savings and increase the cost of growth by making capital more expensive and makes services that depend on warehouse credit more expensive to operate. Stimulating savings decreases spending which decreases economic activity which decreases demand and makes supply exceed demand and prices drop. But it also means less economic activity, which translates into unemployment, lack of wage growth, and other factors. But this process takes time, just like supply expansion through cheap capital (low interest rates). It’s also really hard to reverse a recession while it’s easy to stop a boom.

I’d rather stuff become more expensive for a while and keep my job and get raises to account for it while the economy expands to meet demand than lose my job and have absolutely nothing and struggle to make ends meet while we stumble through a recession, especially since inflation will keep going for some time despite the recession.
They took a bunch of VC cash. Like a lot. They’re going to want 10-1000x on that, and consumers are only willing to pay so much. Apple Notes and Google Keep sucked away most of the consumer market.
Even just the mere mention of the involvement of a network attched cpu seems to be able to cause the failure of all forms of critical reasoning in many people. See above.
Yes they do. They show classic narcissistic and sociopathic behaviors.
Okay, so yes: you're describing something that does not scale.
So 20% spent on tests and another 20% on meetings where presumably you decide what to build is not part of the job they applied for? Nonsense! If we’re doing hot takes here there’s no way everyone else on his team is spending 40% of their time on tooling without management doing anything about it
The SSD isn't going to miraculously sprout a way to perform calculations on itself without something performing calculations on it itself.

What is the "it" that you keep talking about that is taking a bit from an input cell?

I mean okay, try to imagine that you could store some magical sequence of bits to a SSD that would signal to the SSD itself that it should be performing some sort of computation on this range of bits by just shifting them around. Now imagine how many bits in how many permutations are stored on all of the ssds in the world. Now ask yourself why this hasn't just miraculously happened.
