And even the frugal can be hungry: that is the meaning of poverty in the article, and the analysis is about a solution against it - because whether you embrace the idea of "[GDP-based] growth" or that of "frugality", hunger is a bad state to live in. The point of the article is about "how to have growth", and it is a transposition on different assumptions of "how to have food even though you are frugal". Diogenes was frugal and, reportedly, occasionally sadly aware of his factual poverty.
I believe Twitter "ads" are mostly promoted tweets; people can _reply_ to them. That's a significant risk.

(Incidentally, I just went to twitter to try to confirm my impression that they're always/nearly always interactive... It's no longer serving me ads. A couple of days ago it was at least showing me ads for online gambling and GPT-3-looking spam articles...)
We have evidence that when the DNC was hacked, so was the RNC. Only one of those hacks has ever been released. Unless you believe republicans have literally never done anything wrong, something doesn't add up.
TBH I think even a basic "I considered your point, but X and Y factors seemed to mitigate it enough for my standards, defined by P and Q. Let me know if I'm misunderstanding anything" would do a lot. It's important to always show you've considered that you're wrong about something.
I still don't see the point of tablets. It's just a smartphone with a larger screen, and practically all people already carry phones.

Might as well go for the laptop at that point given that it can actually do far more imo, unless you ditch the phone and go for one of those half phone half tablets I guess.
You don't need AI to fool people who can't understand a scientific article yet will trust its conclusions.
I'm interested to know how many people are still using Ruby. I'm sure it has shrunk since the heyday of Ruby on Rails, but are people using it for new development? Or just maintaining existing software?

But your point is a good one and well taken.
I think it makes sense when you realize that the product (Galactica) and all the messaging around it are just PR - they're communicating to shareholders of a company in deep decline trying to say 'look at the new stuff we're doing, the potential for new business here'.

You interrupting the messaging ruins it, so you get some deniable boilerplate response. its not personal.
None of it would be possible without academia though. Industry just applies academic research.
The AirPods seem to stop broadcasting their location very quickly, perhaps as a power-saving measure. It's unfortunate because it makes the Find My feature basically useless. I went ahead and attached a Tile tracker to my AirPod Pros because the feature was so unreliable.

It tends to work very well for AirTags and Apple devices that have actual connectivity (until their battery dies.)

Build a Solar-Powered Music Synth Zine
Crypto’s Collapse May Have Done the Economy a Favor
In this project you’ll build a solar-powered oscillator circuit, using two NOT gates to generate a square wave. Then you’ll add two push button switches and a potentiometer to adjust the pitch.
Functionality of your PC is also there 'because of physics'. You paid for the RAM, CPU, and electricity to run it. There is a lot of software in cars and ECUs. The mapping and tuning industry exists because there is a lot of knowledge and expertise to extract the most out of the 'physics'.

There could be an argument for open source ECU mapping tables and other software. But, the reason is the same as reasons for OSS, not that the customer has paid for the 'physics' that already exists.
Yupppp. But you can't let function names get too long or everyone will laugh at you for being a Java dev writing Go.

Like I said, absurd.

Google tried this taking on Facebook. It didn't work because network effects cannot force someone to a new network. Heck, it almost killed YouTube in the process of getting Google+ their network.

It's certainly in Elon Musk's interest to cast this as the actions of a cabal of politically-motivated figures. I think the reality is that if you look at Twitter as a platform under his 'leadership'... well, who'd want to advertise on it now?

Musk is doing everything he can to drive away big corporations who enjoy reliability. He's summarily fired >66% of the workforce. He's implemented seemingly random policy changes, none of which have worked, many of which resulted in immediate obvious damage to the brand image of said advertisers. None of the things he has promised to do which advertisers might like have happened, and on several, he's reneged without explaining why.

What large corporation trying to remain politically neutral-ish* while appeasing a wide base of customers wants any part of this?

* Politically neutral-ish in my view means "so anodyne and vague in our behavior that moderate people of the left and right both think we're with them, and extremists from either side can be ignored."
If you're using the system for gaming and not banking, this seems like a reasonable trade off.
Does Twitter need those specific advertisers more than they need Twitter? The ones that remain that couldn't quite make the list will become their new "top advertisers" and reap the benefits. I doubt they are in any danger of running out of companies that want to advertise on their service.

I don't really care about Musk or Twitter, but I'm hoping this whole debacle will result in less reliance on advertising for services like these. It's already resulted in more interest in the fediverse.
Good hack to generate traffic on your articles.
At first blush i'd be happy to save the money. But I could save even more, and save on gas, by having a less powerful motor in the first place.
Congratulations, Emacs! I hope it will be a similar success story as in Neovim. If more systems use it, the question "should my programming language provide a Tree-Sitter parser" becomes a no brainer.
Economies of scale mean that it's frequently less expensive to manufacture only the top configuration with the most features, and then turn features off in software. Broadly, I think that price discrimination is good because it allows the cheaper version of things to exist and be sold at a lower profit margin than a company would otherwise be willing to sell for.

For example, the 2022 Ford Maverick XL was not available with cruise control, but it's only locked out in software. All cars have computer controlled throttles now, so cruise control is a software-only feature with no additional hardware.

Some other hardware that's commonly limited by software is CPUs, GPUs, and such. I had a triple core AMD CPU that I unlocked into a quad core, and an ATI GPU that I reflashed into a higher model. This has become less possible as manufacturers start using lasers to destroy parts of their own product instead, so that hackers can't re-enable disabled functionality.

If laws came around to prevent software from being used to limit hardware functionality, that's what we're going to start seeing: more money and effort spent to intentionally remove or destroy things from products. That sucks compared to just switching it off in software.
I have to say I enjoy the consistent sub 800ms load times.
Though it sounds like the normal automated account creation flow is also blocked from that ISP. That could be more problematic and discourage editor account creation.
When sold by the manufacturer, sure. When modded by the final consumer, I am less convinced. Sure, a misbehaving car can be a hazard to those around it as well as its driver, but we already accept a huge amount of that in the name of personal freedom. Why not a bit more for those among us who choose to tune and hack their vehicles?
But they link a process to create an account which I assume is to combat automation.

Better buy a lot of chunks.

I came here just to ask: Could someone rewrite the HN title of this post? Currently it feels really clickbait-y.

One of the things I really like about HN is the _lack_ of clickbait titles. Some titles are more informative, some less, but overall I feel like the titles are clear, to the point, and not carefully crafted/engineered to poke the lizard part of my brain in the way that clickbait titles are.

Disclaimer: I haven't read the article so I can't propose a title myself. And with a title like this I'm not going to.
Oatmeal + peanut butter + fruit (blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, banana, or raisins if you happen to run out of fresh fruit) is a good option too. The fruit has sugar, but not much, and anyway has fiber and vitamins to balance things out.
Have you thought about which of these is closer to the truth:

1. People like different things for different reasons.

2. You think people who appreciate things you don't like are forcing themselves to like it to be twee and artsy, because you can't actually imagine someone who has radically different tastes from yours.

Your comment has a lot of the same energy as this xkcd guy: https://xkcd.com/1534/

The pro-privacy, power user bubble, obviously. The one company that supports VR on Linux you're mentioning is Valve, which lets you use their headsets in any OS with no fuss. They fully support Linux, so I don't really know what you're talking about there. The Occulus line on the other hand, requires a Facebook account and tracks your data constantly. Obviously the overlap of Linux gamers and people fine with the Occulus ToS are pretty small. Conversely, the overlap of Windows users and privacy-conscious people who are knowledgeable enough to modify their OS is also very small.

>The last thing I want to do with my time is read data science and ML blogs and newsletters which are guaranteed to be 95%+ crap that's either irrelevant to me, wrong, useless or plagiarized from something I've already read.

Are you me? This is exactly how I feel. I've given up on trying to find a good source of Data Science news or articles.

If we're talking about ML models (e.g. Clustering Algorithms and Metrics), once a year I'll try to select a few books published in the last year read them. They'll always be some new ideas and algorithms, and I'll get to refresh my knowledge on existing topics as well.

Throughout the year I'll usually hear (HN/LinkedIn/colleagues) about related books (e.g. Designing Data Intensive Applications) and read them.

That's more than enough to keep me employed and ahead of the game at my job. I'm not a researcher nor a Twitter/LinkedIn "thought leader", so most of what I need to know needs to be tested and validated and not bleeding edge.
It's very sad for microsoft that the community has to step up to unbloat their stuff

Trillion dollar company can't be bothered to optimize their OS properly, or perhaps their workforce is not skilled enough

They are already missing out on the handheld console market, it's all about linux/android

I'm personally happy about it, the worse microsoft becomes, the better the competition becomes because it helps new actors emerge and proliferate (macOS, android, linux)
Or the other way, "Features that were previously fused off due to market differentiation but the same die otherwise can now be accessed without throwing away the current product and re-buying different SKUs (e.g. server/workstation Xeon chips)"

How "Acceptable" this is really depends on what features are going to be behind this paywall.
Just reading the title, I expected OP to be talking about invalid passwords, i.e. when a password's text can't be used because it's too short/long or has/doesn't have specific characters. That's a discussion I would be much more interested in; mostly because I'm sick of seeing long passwords be completely broken.

A better title for their post would be "incorrect", not "invalid".
>seems pretty subjective.

The gold standard of medical evidence is the clinical endpoint. How someone feels after receiving treatment is subjective, but is is subjective per subject, so the subject in the numerator cancels with the one in the denominator, and the result is an objective measurement.

> In the company’s words, Galactica “can summarize academic papers, solve math problems, generate Wiki articles, write scientific code, annotate molecules and proteins, and more.”

The first step to successfully publish prototypes is creating realistic expectations. That's being done all the time in papers and other ML projects. Instead Meta listed a set of features in a language model that can be summarized as "magic".
Is irony the right word?

The workers of a transnational electronics manufacturing mega-corporation (that is based in the reactionary oppressors' home island) are rising up and fighting back against the apparatchik functionaries.
Software has subscription because software usually puts out new versions periodically with new functionality and fixes. Car companies’ subscriptions seem to be rent on existing features that never change.

It would be easier to swallow if it’s a rent-to-own model.

>All this effort

Effort ? That repo consists of a few Windows Registry tweaks and some bundled 3rd party installers. Not exactly ground breaking engineering that could have been better deployed to improve SteamOS/Linux....
Good point. It does happen, but perhaps not as often as the other BS reasons. This is because developers are mostly at the bottom of the hierarchy. They don't often get to choose what BS they get to work on.

That said, I have seen a company try, mostly unsuccessfully, to switch to a service-oriented architecture when it didn't make any sense to do so.

I also saw a greenfield project that the lead developer used to try out some hot new tech. So it wasn't something that already worked fine, but it was resume-driven development or at least chosen because the tech was new and interesting.
Exactly the reason I've always avoided European luxury cars. Imagine buying a full car for a hefty price and having to keep paying extra to use the features you already bought
> Working out midday before lunch is a new challenge for me, and I'm still getting into the hang of it, as opposed to after work hours.

For me, once I got over the initial hump, my workouts before my first feeding are great. I have tons of energy, and am just ready to go. That initial hump was a little rough as I used to eat breakfast as soon as I got up. Now, I only start to notice real hunger if I skip breakfast and lunch.
Intel Posts Reworked Linux Patches to Improve Hybrid CPU and SMT Kernel Behavior
Ok, I will try to use Common Lisp without the CLOS:

* 123
123

That looks good, let's see...

* (describe *)
123
[fixnum]

Huh? What's a FIXNUM?

* (describe 'fixnum)
COMMON-LISP:FIXNUM
[symbol]

FIXNUM names the built-in-class #<BUILT-IN-CLASS COMMON-LISP:FIXNUM>:
Class precedence-list: FIXNUM, INTEGER, RATIONAL, REAL, NUMBER, T
Direct superclasses: INTEGER
No subclasses.
Sealed.
No direct slots.

Uh-oh.

Anyway, you see what I mean now by not being able to use Common Lisp without the CLOS. Unless by using the CLOS you mean having to explicitly opt-in by using classes, multiple dispatch, multiple inheritance, generic functions, the MOP and all that weird stuff.
Hello, I'm the developer of Winbuilder. Those builder projects exist specifically because they avoid distribuing ANY Microsoft binaries.

You have to provide the installation files or ISO. The files are then extracted from there and used for building a new image.

That is the reason why these hobby and sysadmin projects were able to exist for so long without legal issues from Microsoft. Distributing ISO images with Microsoft files like beta archive and now AtlasOS goes against the EULA conditions (assuming they are valid in your host country).
FlipperZero hardware hacker released for US sales
If anyone has been clamoring for one of these in the US, they just got released.

Flipper Zero is a portable Tamagotchi-like[1] multi-functional device developed for interaction with access control systems. The device is able to read, copy, and emulate radio-frequency (RFID) tags, radio remotes, and digital access keys.[2] It was first announced in August 2020 through the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign, which raised $4.8M.[3] The first devices were delivered to backers 18 months after completion of the crowdfunding campaign.

Flipper Zero is designed for interaction with various types of access control systems, radio protocols, RFID, near-field communication (NFC), and infrared signals.[5][6] To operate the device, it is not required to have a computer or a smartphone — it can be controlled via a 5-position D-pad and a separate back button. Flipper Zero has a monochrome orange backlight LCD screen with a resolution of 128x64 pixels. For connection with external modules, the device has general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pinholes on the top side. User data and firmware updates are stored on a Micro SD card. Some actions, such as firmware or user data update, require a connection to a computer or a smartphone with developer's software installed.
Noctie never made a single move in my game.
The fact that there are no benchmarks on the official website beside the ridiculous claims about process count and "process latency" (whatever that means, they don't seem to know either) tells you everything you need to know.

If we "assume good intent", what if this is akin to overclocking in the computer world? Yes, the motors can physically do it, but it increases drivetrain warranty repairs 15%.

At that point, this seems like simple hedging "Sure, you can go faster, might burn out the motors, but we'll replace them under warranty".
Prior to the AirPods Pro 2 released this fall, none of the AirPods devices or cases had hardware support for location. The best they can do is a very low resolution location of the actual pods using Bluetooth. When in the case, all it knows is where it was when you put the pods in the case. I had turned off that feature for my older AirPods as it was not useful.

If you had AirPods Pro 2, it can locate the device as long as there is an iPhone or similar device in the vicinity to relay the signal. This is handled by the U1 chip in the APP2 and in the iPhone. the location can be identified quite closely in this case.

Find My works well for devices that have a U1 chip or GPS like phones, iPads, and Macs.

Afaik the claim was not that "it writes correct papers", but that it compiles knowledge. and to that extent it was accurate, along with the disclaimer that it hallucinates things, because it goes on tangents that are often unrelted

The paper was useful for that reason: as a search engine for underresearched and speculative connections within fields, and from what i saw it does well in that. For example, when brainwashing ideas or looking for other research directions to review. In fact, we already have Perspectives papers being published in journals which are speculative in nature.

There are lots of dark money flows from Russia to these politicians, at least for any that I have bothered to check. Fortunately they are extremely fringe at the moment. But it is far far cheaper to buy these politicians than it is to build a fighter jet, far far cheaper to buy social media influence and campaigns than it is to buy cruise missiles.

Russia's propaganda machine was caught off guard because Putin grievously miscalculated in ability to take over Ukraine, and kept the invasion so secret that there was barely any propaganda. But the propaganda campaign is kicking up again, and you can see it in some of the ghost comments on HN, even.
