Sure, except original comment also highlights that the incentives of destroying TSMC is backwards. It's PRC who benefits most from denying US access to TW semi supply chains or engineers not vice versa. Denying TW to US closes relative semi gap for PRC, leveraging PRC control of TSMC in case of successfuly invasion to compel US to lift sanctions also closes relative semi gap for PRC. US has leverage via sanctions during peacetime, but PRC has leverage via threatening access or destruction of east asian semi supply chain during war. Utlimately it's in both US and TW interests for TSMC + co to survive because they extract most value / benefit, but not necessarily for PRC. And for TW, ensuring TSMC+co survival =/= paperclipping them to US. All the interest calculates points towards PRC/TW denying US access, and US wanting continued access since US fabs will still be dependant on TW inputs as much as current TW fabs or future PRC controlled TW fabs will be dependant on US/EU/JP inputs.

The subsidies make the plant break even. Defense spending is basically another subsidy. Most of the weapons the US makes is useless in a civilization that has mostly been at peace for a long time. Hard to say how far defense will go though in terms of spending.

You are definitive about defense spending in a recession. This is wrong. Aspects of the government will begin pulling back. We do not know how this will effect tsmc.

This move from a profitablity standpoint is break even as far as we know. It makes no economic sense.

Btw. This isn't something I'm making up. The CEO of tsmc mark liu stated this to Nancy pelosi during her visit. Also her husband is dumping tsmc stocks for unknown reasons.

Don't most devices have hardware offload for decoding nowadays?
Does "one generation before current" count as "long tail", though?

The chip shortage in products like cars has been for much simpler chips, AFAIK.

The article says Apple, AMD, and Nvidia are looking to source from the new plant. Aren't they canonical examples of companies that are always looking for the latest and greatest? Why would they be interested in an prev-gen chip?
> and anyway character development is the purview of parents not schools. public education should teach specific academic material and nothing more.

Since they have the kids about 8 hours a day, about 5 days per week, about 9 months per year, during formative ages, 13 years in a row, schools can't help but teach character development, even if they don't try to.
Do you have an open source repo? Commercial licensing? Is there a business / pricing model? Do you have a roadmap for feature parity with other solutions? Do you have a public list of the missing features? Is there written documentation? Can the db server be interacted with aside from the Browser app?

I don't mean to downplay the potential performance benefits you've shown, but you're up against other databases that have been around for 22-33 years each. You have a bus factor of seemingly 1. You have a specific way of communicating that you've decided on that is unlike any other popular solution out there. I wouldn't assume speed is the primary factor.
The "other" search engine (you mean Google with Google maps/shopping recommendations etc. right?) didn't buy ads in its own system competing on a level playing field with competitors, but created new space for its own products that was inaccessible to any competitors.

In other words, Brave seems to be doing the right thing here by promoting its own products in the same way that any competing product can.

From their accusation: there is clearly a long history of this happening in the context of this person driving. You've left out all of the history and context. You even left out your relationship to this person. This could be a friend, coworker, spouse or your child.

Your relationship to this person matters especially because their words might not be literal. "You're always criticizing my driving" might mean "You always criticize me" in general. Or it might mean "You don't trust my judgement". Or it might mean "You have financial control over my life and I'm just now at my breaking point."

Most importantly, I don't want to know the details and HN isn't the place for these threads. But if I were you I'd evaluate my entire relationship to this person rather than this one summer downtown drive.
Caffeine has no smell so what you are detecting is some other component or effect on the semen taste. Many things can affect the taste of semen.
This common explanation never made sense. Lower income is correlated with higher fertility within the US, within every country, across the world, and (seemingly) throughout history.
Yeah, homoiciniciry is one of the "facilities" I mentioned. Along with stuff like pattern matching over types. But yeah, macros are really one of rhe big ones.
this doesn't seem to be how it works in practice. Weaponized remote control robots are already a thing in warfare (drones) and it seems to make murder way too easy.
Well it doesn't seem that oil and gas are that reliable either at the moment either hence the need for the draft legislation.

The blog just seems to be the ramblings of a covid/climate conspiracy type. I'd take it with a pinch of salt.
OK I stand corrected I found the study. Half a million for 2 kids, the first one representing the most of it (380k).

Calculation involves direct costs (upwards of 200k per kid) + indirect costs (bigger housing, owning bigger cars, more items, moving closer to good schools or quiet/safer places, etc).

Still I stand by the idea that if you can't swallow the IVF price you will be in a bad situation in the long term.
What's the idea here? I was under the impression that one of the selling points of Brave is that you don't get ads when browsing. Doesn't this go against that?
After hitting the 8 billion mark, yeah, I can see why this is good news.
Could be correlated to issue 1 with plastic containers. In the US, soda generally comes in aluminum cans or 2L plastic bottles, whereas coffee and tea aren't.

Anyways, I still think sedentary lifestyles and stress play a larger role than plastics, but those are harder to isolate and control for researchers.
I’m 35, wife is 34. We’ve had no problems conceiving but it hasn’t been smooth sailing post conception at all. Had one molar pregnancy, one missed miscarriage of a Mono/Di twin, and we’re now onto our third term.

Although these issues can prop up at any age, the statistical chance of something going wrong keeps going up. Moreover, there’s the constant fear with every miscarriage that we’re getting even older and even more likely to run into bigger problems.

I’m honestly surprised by how little people talk about these issues.

Pipe | Backend, Security, Data Science | Remote (global, but SF/NYC wages) | Full-time

Pipe (https://pipe.com) helps businesses grow by allowing them to sell future recurring revenue for cash today. We make a two sided marketplace for these revenue receivables (legally what we're doing is factoring).

For growing businesses: instead of selling equity (expensive, time consuming) or doing a debt round (expensive, time consuming) or getting other types of loans (expensive, time consuming), we plug in to your financial systems and underwrite you within 48 hours. As your revenues grow, we automatically adjust your trade limit. You always get the best price that the market is willing to provide for your revenue. Fast, easy, and no equity dilution.

Our team is currently about 25 engineers / 15 product+designers, and we're looking to bring on a few more key engineers on the backend, security, and data science side of things. We’re also open to very experienced frontend candidates, but it’s less of a need right now. The security engineering job is primarily about using your backend skills to accomplish security-related projects -- previous security expertise is a plus, but not required.

In terms of seniority, we’re looking for IC/Tech-lead shaped senior engineers; we have a healthy mix of experience levels on our current team, but would like to bring on more senior talent at the moment to help with a few key projects and expand our mentoring capabilities. Ideologically, we'd love to hire all types of engineers and be able to help them grow within the company, but right now we're too bandwidth constrained to hire for additional junior positions.

We use Postgres, Golang, Kubernetes, Next.js/React/Typescript. We are entirely remote and don't scale wages based on geography (disrespectful, unfair, archaic.) We pay strong US-based (NYC/SF) wages and have a philosophy of keeping the team relatively small so that we can all grow and have a large impact on the company's trajectory. We'd rather spend money on good tooling and processes than wasting it "hyperscaling" our team size.

I've done the same thing, first thing I tried with ChatGPT: https://imgur.com/a/d8LZicq

- Write a simple CRDT implementation in Swift

- How can I make a GraphQL server using Rust using the async-graphql and actix-web libraries?

- Write code to create a Dropbox clone in Rust

- How do I make an HTTP request in Javascript?

However, just like with Copilot, it can introduce subtle bugs. For example, in the Dropbox example, notice how it uses synchronous code in an async function. Also, longer prompts will reach the token limit and get cut off.

Interestingly, this must be what Replit is also using for their AI codegen service too (https://replit.com/site/ghostwriter) since I believe they have some connection to OpenAI, as they got early access to OpenAI's service last year with their previous Codex product (https://blog.replit.com/codex).

What Is External Validation and When It Becomes Unhealthy
consider not messing with people's computers without their permission.

there's legitimate uses for browser notifications. messaging apps like slack and discord, calendars, email clients, etc. some browser games. some buy/sell platforms. notifications serve a purpose. if you understand the consequences and want to turn them off on your computer, then go ahead.

but in my experience well-meaning young folks turning things off on other people's computers is a big part of why some people don't trust their computers, or think they're bad at computers. they're talking to a friend and find out that their friend's computer gives them a little notification every time they get an email, and they don't understand why their computer doesn't do that. and the first conclusion they come it is that they just don't know how to use the computer properly. meanwhile they know how to use their computer perfectly fine, but some grandson has gone through the settings and turned off half the things their computer does.

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, I see a possible issue with the experiment setup.

> The start-of-input was measured by pressing two keys at once -- one key on the keyboard and a button that was also connected to the logic analyzer.

In order to get an accurate measurement, wouldn't you need to directly connect the analyzer to circuitry on the underside of a specific key, as well as the USB output, and measure the diff? The article addresses this by mentioning it's only possible to get average latencies with their setup, but I wonder if this is why the keyboard with the shortest measured latency is also one with an extremely low travel distance.
Hiding Opinions from Machine Learning
> then proceed to advocate for mass censorship, you are functionally saying we need fact checkers the problem is I do not trust the fact checkers that have been appointed in the past because they have been proven to be partisan hacks that spread "approved" disinformation only dispelling unapproved disinformation

I did not, you misunderstand.

I merely advocate for acknowledging that humans are terrible at the things i pointed at. Which conversely, you seem to advocate that we are capable there. You can both identify that we are terrible at information and not advocate for surveillance/censorship. Why do you jump to those contrasts?

To think of it differently, we have to acknowledge we have a problem before we can fix it. Information is a gun, and we have not taken gun safety. We need tools and acknowledgement of our limitations before we can wield the power you so haphazardly throw around. I do not trust young children with guns. We are nothing more than children in our current state.

My previous post advocated that we don't pretend the children can handle guns safely without training and safety tooling. edit: That we should find ways to prove gun safety training / tooling, rather than remove guns (in this analogy lol)
I play guitar, but I'm in the same boat (probably with a longer signal chain) -- 10ms is about the limit before it's noticeable. The idea that people don't notice 100ms is crazy talk; anyone playing 16th notes at a pretty reasonable 120bpm is hitting a note every 125ms.
>Functional programming concepts don't require learning category theory

This is such a reductionist world-view. Programming concepts don't require you to learn the theory of computation either, but having a theoretical/abstract grounding for what computation is disconnected from any particular programming language/model of computation helps. A lot.

>Type theory isn't category theory

It depends on what you mean by "isn't".

There is a 1:1 correspondence between type theory and category theory constructs.

No. Absolutely wrong.

Homes are much larger now than in 1955. Cars are being purchased with far more (expensive) features, and they are driven for fewer miles before being "upgraded". We eat out much more. Even when we eat in, we eat more luxurious meals. We buy Frappuccinos daily, we buy clothing much more frequently, we impulse shop significantly more, we utilize medical services much more frequently, we take far more, and more luxurious vacations, we rack up ludicrous levels of student debt for degrees that have no hope of servicing said debt, etc, etc, etc.

We are wealthier today than at any point in human history. The myth that all homes must be two-income is predicated on the outrageous lifestyles we choose, NOT due to anything inherent in "society" or "the economy".

Our insane consumerist appetite is what's preventing one household member from staying home, nothing else.

Yes, my experience with BBSes was in the early 1980s -- I had no idea until reading this article that some lasted into the late 1990s still as dialup, although I had heard of the BBS-over-telnet phenomenon in the 2000s. But I had net access via my university (mostly ftp and Usenet as the Web wasn't yet a thing) since the late 1980s and so left the BBS world early.
DJ, you are very mistaken in that statement.

Investing contains risks not suitable for everyone, and if you can't understand those risks ahead of time, perhaps you shouldn't be investing.

If you do, there is a high likelihood that you'll eventually get really burned (lose money) and have only yourself to blame.

Stock buybacks primarily enrich executives over the shareholders because much of their compensation is derived from it.

Many companies, to avoid leveraged buyouts (hostile takovers) must carry a high debt to cash ratio.

What happens to a brittle system, when there is a sudden economic event, and you were already up to your gills in debt (by default), and you funded the buyback with more debt? How is that terribly different from what happened with the Penn Central bailout and bankruptcy?
It's obesity 100%. You can try to blame microplastics all you want but plastics have been around for a long time now and the amount of people having issues in the last generation has skyrocketed along with the obesity epidemic.

Ask HN: What's with TPM 2.0 and Apple T2?
Why are these chips required for the latest versions of Windows and macOS?

Windows 11 Home doesn't support Bitlocker, and Bitlocker seems to be the only feature that requires a TPM.

My old iMac ran Monterey fine. I don't see a substantial difference between the ones supported by Ventura and mine except for generational upgrades and the lack of a T2.

Does BPA-free plastic improve anything? What about containers of non-prepared food? I can see not eating directly from any, but I think it's pretty hard in the developed world to rid ourselves of plastics entirely in the storage of foodstuffs.

Also, do we know whether the changes in sperm quality you mention affect congenital childhood maladies? (I realize this is probably beyond your field somewhat.)
If the test is between the keyboard and screen "For desktop results, results are measured from when the key started moving until the screen finished updating", then the classic "Transatlantic ping faster than sending a pixel to the screen?" should also be considered:

It is not uncommon to see desktop LCD monitors take 10+ 240 Hz frames to show a change on the screen. The Sony HMZ averaged around 18 frames, or 70+ total milliseconds.

Cool product. Just curious, is there no existing encryption at the DB level? I would expect modern DBs to be able to do that.
Hmmm, never thought about that. I don't think I've noticed a different minimum web requirement based on color for 0402-class and QFN stuff, but I could certainly believe it for extremely small footprints and high-density BGAs.

Where I seem to see issues with green soldermask coverage are tented vias underneath components.

The canonical example is a non-GND via underneath a QFN component with a pad. However, I have also seen issues with vias next to large pads of power transistors where the transistor can "float" around on the solder.

This seems counterintuitive since I would expect the main soldermask color to be used for more BGA-type components where the breakout vias would need to be covered properly. Nevertheless, experience suggests otherwise.

I finally got fed up once and ordered the same PCB with green soldermask for one batch and blue for another. The green ones had some via coverage fails; the blue ones didn't have any. Since then, I've just avoided green soldermask unless I'm going for uber-volume levels of PCBs.

Ask HN: Is there a list of vendors selling unbloated Windows?
I recently had to buy some Windows laptops for employees. I found a cheap Dell machine but hated that you had to have an internet connection to first log in, the login had to be a Microsoft account before you could change it to a local account, there was various bloatware, you had to find your way out of S mode, and similar irritants.

Then I stumbled upon a half-the-price-of-Dell ECOHERO laptop on Amazon. The first power-on weirdly goes to the BIOS settings, but after that it's a pleasant surprise: no internet connection required, no bloatware, no S mode, the Control Panel is already conveniently on the desktop, and so on. It's like going back in time to early Windows, yet all of Windows 11 is there. Oddly, the vendor appears to have no web site or presence other than on Amazon.

Does anyone keep a list of vendors like ECOHERO that sell machines with unbloated "minimal" Windows?
