Right. The very same palette can be done with usual 24- and 32- bit palette.
A palette is supposed to be a (chosen) subset of the whole color space. So this is a 12 colors palette over a (presumably) 24hbit color space.
A 12-bit palette should have 4096 different colors to be enumerated.

That one is a 4-bit palette.
It is absolutely insane that Australia is number six on that list. The entire country could run off solar power easily, it should have some of the cheapest electricity in the world. Complete failure of political leadership, I hope this new government fixes things.

I played for 6-7 years (maybe more, this was a long time ago) as a kid and I'd like to think I was pretty decent. This happened to me too. Part of it was a kind of mindless practice that wasn't particularly intentional, so I'd get pretty good at ripping through a piece but I wasn't thinking about it.
The Linux guys will get there first and, in either case, it will help Apple sell more Macs --just don't do it without AppleCare+ and backups of yoh backups (non-Apple software is largely ignorant of Apple's sometimes obscure and marginal thermal management systems). BTW, don't be shy about buying an m1pro/max based MBP --looking at the thermal plate they put on the m2 in the 2022 MBA, it will be a while before I'd trust the new enclosures with a warmer chipset.

As someone who does SMD work on hardware using microscopes I would not be able to fix these PCBs (or that analogy) using a hammer.

This is like saying "Uhh mountains are unsafe, I don't get why they put up a handrail at that crowded vantage point over there".

Whether a tool/safety mesure is appropriate is always is about context. I have literally met zero people who work on security or safety critical (e.g. embedded, networking, ...) C code who do not welcome the guarantees Rust brings. It is a complete no-brainer. The ones that complain are the I am a genius who never makes mistakes"-crowd. So precisely the people you should never* let anywhere near anything safety critical.

I write C and I delved into Rust and I can tell you that I trust a vomitted out piece of Rust I wrote more than a piece of C I carefully vetted — and there are rational resons for that. The things that can go wrong at any given point in a C code are more, the ways they can go undetected are more and so on.

Anybody who claims otherwise has not put in the legwork themselves.

Rust is incredibly rigid and stringent by default and if something compiles you can be sure that it now just needs it's logic tested (which is a joy to do in that language).

Hundreds (thousands?) of engineers opting for the severance package despite all the gloomy news about layoffs suggests this negative picture is fairly accurate.
Yes, it's so tiresome and frustrating. I once had a period of a few months where my sleep was down to around 5 hours/night (normally I would get 8-9), I was exhausted and my body just wouldn't sleep more than that. Went to a doctor who offered a couple of thoughts "some people only need that much sleep" and "there's only one thing it could be, but that's not what it is". He wasn't even going to test the "one thing" until I asked if he would. Turns out he was correct that that wasn't what it was, but obviously there was at least one other thing. My sleep ended up returning to normal though I still have similar periods where I can't get enough sleep.

The only medical practitioners I've found willing to be more curious and to take a more holistic approach are naturopaths. I have had some notable improvements in my chronic health issues working with them, though I am a little uncomfortable with them given their general openness to things that seem pretty questionable to me (like homeopathy).
Tech companies had a bubble when COVID 19 was first talked about. People stayed at home and used social networks. Now that COVID 19 is under control, the bubble burst and layoffs happened because people went back to work and stopped using social networks. Thus less advertising income. Less income means layoffs.

Isn’t the argument, “This is especially bad because she had the foundation to use her intelligence in ways not useful to society. She took to crime not because she was raised in the wrong milieu or saw no other chance to survive with what she had. She took to crime by choice. Not only did she caused damage by what she did. She also caused society damage by withholding her talents, for which society, too, had paid, from real tasks facing us.”

> They have a methodology. People can put whatever stock they want into it.

The problem is that there isn’t really another ranking and their methodology isn’t something most people can reason able (even if it’s public). Also the universities do lie and make up stats apparently (Columbia had this issue this year).
They rely on 3rd party attestations where an audit firm verifies that when eg Tether says they have $100 cash, 1 btc and 1 eth, they actually do. The issue comes when these “point-in-time attestations” are gamed by eg taking a 1-day loan the day before the statements are sent so that the cash balance qualifies.
I believe own capital would be reinvested profits in this case as opposed to equity from selling stocks.

As per FT:

Guessing: post ftx collapse someone minted new ftt tokens. Which should be strange because only FTX should have been able to do so.
It doesn't really matter, FTT is a garbage token forever associated with fraud. Its value is zero and you can print how many you like without hurting anyone.

As I've said elsewhere on HN I'm passionate about this because I didn't have parents the first 10 years of my life (see reply to tptacek below for details if you're curious). At least these kids will have a dad so that's a plus.

It bothers me for people who haven't experienced it to just say "oh they'll be fine". As I've said over and over again on this topic I'm "fine" but that needs to be quoted - I didn't want to acknowledge it for the longest time but it turns out those years can have a pretty significant impact on the rest of your life. My sister and I aren't "fine" the way most kids who grew up with their parents being at least somewhat around are fine.

Things happen - parents die, etc. What really boils my blood on this is she deliberately chose, for her own self interest, to put these kids on a similar path to the one I've lived. That's why I have such a visceral disgust for her and what she has done to these poor kids. I almost don't even care about the fraud and what she was convicted of but when those pregnancies happened my antennae went up.
Well I like this project tbh but hope in the future you guys can build something with different features compared with Retool, or Appsmtih, budibase etc.

I think that you are saying that if you had future vests that will turn into shares at the aquisition price ($53/share or somthing). But only your remaining outstanding vests exist.

I have no idea how far out twitter gave shares. Amazon does them to 3 years. So everyone who remains at twitter has some amount of time till they run out of all veests, depending on comp the latter vests may be big or small.

They all still go to base only and my point still stands tho they'd have till near when my final vests were coming up to tell me WTF my comp looked like.
Since you say "almost everybody", I assumed you have been behind bars yourself and know how easy it is to survive not being raped, stabbed to death, pushed to wolves by other gang or being killed by that gang for not going against another one, being forced to snitch by guards, or being snitch out to other inmates in retribution for not snitching out to the guards, and much much more.

Where I live in a town of about 100K, 46,000 people voted in the election for mayor.

If there's a hearing for some project, maybe 10 or 20 people show up, mostly old, wealthy people who 'got theirs' and want to complain about change.

People's votes are a far more inclusive way of letting 'the commoner' have their say than hearings at 11AM.
> I am personally very skeptical of the "realness" of anything that happens during a hallucination.

If you interpret "realness" as do they exist in the real world, then of course no.

But perhaps the subconscious mind is manifesting these "entities" so that some communication with it is possible. In that sense they are a real part of you, and you could perhaps gleam benefits from such an interaction.

It isn't selecting for people who aren't lazy, it's selecting for people who have no other options, which doesn't seem like the best way to attract talent.

If you were told you would have to work many more hours with fewer benefits for the same pay, but you had the option of going somewhere else for comparable pay, an actual ability to see your friends/family, and WFH/free meals/whatever, are you telling me that you would stay and take the worse working conditions just out of loyalty to a company that has no real loyalty to you and only employs you based off of an arbitrary metric?

Given the choice, of course you're going to take the option with reasonable working conditions and flexibility for the same pay.

The people they are retaining are largely going to be staying because they don't have that option.

Quite a few seem to have visas dependent on their employment and social circles they don't want to leave and some are scared that they won't be able to convince another employer of their value in today's tech climate where everyone is laying off.
Sounds like a clear signal to take it with a grain of salt.

That makes no sense. They are incorporated under Bahamianan law, so that law takes precedence over any contractual agreement. I.e., FTX cannot enter into a contract that declares implicitly or explicitly that they won't follow said law.

I think starting with HSL (as opposed to e.g. Oklab) is a mistake. (EDIT: the following claim was a mistake on my part.) Note this from the results:

IMO the palette does not have decreasing luminance. To my eye, on a color corrected monitor, luminance seems to peak at yellow.
> Every time load shifting or diurnal storage is mentioned, there are cries of 'but what abuurt the 3 day energy drought you need four days' Now when presented with a system that is designed precisely for this use case you start whining. Make up your mind.

You were the first one to bring up seasonal storage here [1]. Nobody was ever talking about seasonal storage until you brought it up. "but what abuurt the 3 day energy drought you need four days" this is all you talking, bud.

> In addition to this you can use Tumut 2 as your output, then when there is surplus energy store it via snowy 2. This will take a few weeks, but it is a way to fill the entire 350GWh with curtailed renewable energy if that is what you really want.

But it's not what we really want. What we really want is to capture the excess production of intermittent sources. Saying a dam is energy storage is like saying natural gas plants are energy storage. You can curtail their output when renewables are in production, sure: If you have 100 GW of demand and 50 GW of solar production during the day you can run your natural gas plants at 50 GW during the day and 100 GW at night. But what happens when solar grows to 200 GW? The objective is to use 100 GW and store 100 GW during the day and tap into the stored energy at night. Dams and natural gas don't let you do that.

People who defend bail just see bail as something that maximizes the likelihood the accused actually show up to court. In a high trust society it wouldn't be necessary, but we don't have that. Most people who are arrested are actually guilty of a crime which is why there is a 95% conviction rate in the federal system and ~75% across the states. Accordingly "society" has an interest in keeping the non criminal population safe and that is the origin of bail. It is unfortunate that many defendants, especially those who are already marginalized, are unable to exercise their speedy trial rights due to a combination of government incompetence, overwhelmed public defenders, and indigence but I wouldn't say anyone is proud of that.
Assuming that is true, why would affirmative action be viewed as so important that schools abandon participation in the premier ranking system in order to pursue it through a backdoor? I am genuinely curious why affirmative action is considered so sacred that elite schools suddenly reject the ranking system they have spent decades trying to climb. Rankings are really a pretty critical part of US education.

Without rankings you don't attract the prestige seeking students willing to pay. In turn you don't earn the money you need to pay your professors and administrators. You probably don't attract the star professors you wanted with higher salaries. These things are all linked.

Maybe their solution is to have a giant endowment or maybe they just establish a different ranking system that suits them better. But I still think it seems like a surprising outcome if affirmative action is more important than rankings.
Agreeing with what you say. But the criminal system’s purpose is not just prevention.

Actually, nobody is really sure what its purpose is.

Why do parents, when they get really angry, sometimes hit a child? Psychology has proven that doing so is a really terrible way of preventing further infractions. So the impulse to punish is not necessarily rational.

A whole religion has been built on the idea of consciously letting go of the urge to judge and punish - and it hasn’t worked out for 2000 years.

So one reason why the government punishes criminals is to take the wind out of the sails of all the private parties that otherwise would cry for punishment of that person, or take it into that own hands. In that sense, it is essentially a power move by the state in order to remain in control and “keep the peace”.

Awesome story, well done putting it out there, glad nobody abused it and thanks for sharing!
I like the RP2040 a lot. Getting started with it on a Qt Py and the Pico W was really easy and pleasant, and for the price, it’s kind of mind blowing what kind of power you’re getting.

I’ve been moving hydroponic automation code and hardware from an arduino uno over to a Pico W running circuit Python, and it has been such an empowering experience. I’ve got the Pico on a block terminal breakout so I can prototype faster, make future modifications, and rewriting everything in Python has been mostly painless. The wifi radio library had some hiccups, but it was fixed fairly quickly and I had work arounds.

One thing I’m not clear on is why the arduino nano connect costs so much more than the Pico W. I’m not really deep into embedded stuff yet — I mostly dabble and if stuff works, I’m ecstatic. I got my Pico W for around $12 CAD though, and the nano at the moment is around $30 CAD. Is it just that arduino community and support is so strong?

I actually loved building on the Uno first and wanted to rebuild using the arduino MKR 1010, but the Pico has seemed much more flexible, slightly smaller, and much cheaper to replace if anything goes wrong. Am I missing out on something?
