Thanks for sharing that. At the very least, Arizona has "water budget" in the form of severely curtailing water-intensive agriculture.

I am hopeful that the politicians there are smart enough to realize that semiconductor fabs are an industry whose water needs are worth prioritizing more than farming alfalfa in the desert.

The problem is that these agricultural water rights are old, and the folks who hold them are often disenfranchised. Using a ton of water in the desert to farm is their whole livlihood; we don't just pull people's generational careers out from under them any more, like we used to. Not without a chance at an alternative.

theft must be an accelerant to online order & delivery. Not only is theft impossible to deter leading to loss of profit, but also the prospect of being in close proximity to crime degrades the UX of law abiding shoppers, further reducing footfall and profit
but maybe what you see is what you are made to see

the constant harping and relentless barrage of information that every major storm, landslide or flood "could have been" caused by humanity itself

yes we should be more careful and we are - and nature is much better shape than years ago - think about the massive deforestation in Pennsylvania at the turn of century, it was a barren wasteland, today it is 70% forested with millions of acres of unbroken forests

yet none of that good news is ever presented, it is always about things at the brink
My all-Haskell company has avoided the use of Lens whenever possible and I haven't missed it for a second.

Its payoff doesn't seem to justify the cognitive overhead (concepts, operators, etc) that it brings.

I'd highly recommend that newcomers to Haskell avoid Lens in their own code for as long as possible. The juice really isn't worth the squeeze.
Make sure you negotiate the responsibilities of your role so that you can say "I'm not able to sign off on this". You may get overridden anyway, but the consequences must be known. And if you got people to agree that you should be able to say this, they usually understand the gravity of you having to invoke it and will live by it.
But this obviously isn't a math class, which is the point. I think this post should be read in the context of "make students take statistics instead of calculus", then students will get questions like this instead of studying a topic with clear and unambiguous questions.
> Did not get an offer because I was not strong enough candidate

I was laid off last year and went to interview at an adjacent employer. They had a bunch of employees (not only engineers) hired from the company that was laying me off. One of which had previously walked out the door with a bunch of code to form their own startup; they were hired as a staff engineer. That employee frequently reached out to me for advice and guidance on writing the piece of code that they made off with.

I flunked their cargo-culting hiring process hard. I knew I should have walked out of the interview the minute they put fucking Leetcode in front of me, but didn't.

Moral of the story: your interview success has little to do with your experience and aptitude as an engineer. Here's a list of shops where you might find more success: https://github.com/poteto/hiring-without-whiteboards
I do think its worth wondering about, BUT

* Most non trivial systems are complex, thousands of lines, many systems working together, solving complex domain-specific problems and not toy examples we can produce from ChatGPT

* CoPilot and ChatGPT introduce subtle bugs, so to use thes for code generation, you'd have to write many tests. A LOT of tests to confirm it worked. At a minimum this requires careful thought

* Getting the prompt to do very subtle things right seems time consuming. Why not just write the code (perhaps with guidance from AI)?

Maybe its a fun way to get started, and more convenient than a search engine, but I'm not convinced YET you can make it do anything non trivial without a lot of work and conversation with ChatGPT.
The wholesale abdication of cities to CRE is at an end. These useless monuments to corporate excess will eventually be turned into residential and mixed used properties that will revitalize walking cities. The blocker is again the greed of the CRE industry and corporate interests who know their overinflated property values will start to plummet once the conversions from gaudy status symbols to usable affordable city real estate begins.

Nor should that be the intention. You don't want to break anonymity, you want to maintain non-repudiation, not authenticate the origin.
That actually has a lot more to do with drivers not being provided by manufacturers for newer operating systems
Yes, a massive success like SolarCity, Hyperloop, Boring company, the car-subway they built in Vegas, the spacex-edition-tesla with a 10K PSI tank onboard for cold gas thrusters, and of course how could we forget the flawless, glorious success of self driving cars that don't need a human in them.

The guy has the same ratio of good:bad ideas as everybody else, he just has more money to burn on them.
I tried that. It is hit or miss. Some days it works, other days not.
They do need a lot of water, initially, but it was pointed out that it's similar to filling a swimming pool [1]. Yes you need a lot of water at first, however it's not as though all that water is just being dumped outside to evaporate. It's cleaned and recycled, and recaptured from the air within the plant.

While Arizona doesn't have an abundance of excess water, they do have pretty strict usage guidelines and rules in place from the Department of Water Resources [2]. Assuming we can trust the government's call on this (are they being objective and fair, or tilting the reports to bring in Billions of dollars of corporate revenue and jobs) then these fabs should have no problem being supplied with water or impacting others in the area.

There is no correct answer (though there could be incorrect answers).

Perhaps you want to investigate why the 30 students didn't submit the questionnaire. In the name of the study's sanctity, you'd best convince them to complete it. But you must not coerce them, or else the results would be tainted. So you invent a time machine...

OK, I'm done.
I agree with “show don’t tell” as a general rule for effectiveness in cases like this, but I find it really hard to believe anyone is going to read this and not immediately grasp what is meant by “with adjustable vocals and real-time lyrics”. Obviously you can already sing along, and the question about how this makes it better is answered within the same sentence.
Funny that "in the style of a Hacker News comment" didn't really work. It's more like "in the style of a 10th-grader's English essay," which is really what all of ChatGPT's outputs sound like. They're weirdly stunted and robotic (haha). One point per paragraph, connected with the most basic of connecting words like "Furthermore", they really sound like a high schooler converting an essay outline to passable text.

Not that I'm saying it's not impressive, but it does come with some implications for the future: first, I don't think there's any way the output can even get better at all. There's too much bad writing out there, and it's too hard to differentiate it from good writing. ChatGPT is trained on I guess the entire Internet, which of course includes terabytes of poorly-written blogspam and bad marketing copy. And if AIs like ChatGPT really have some practical purpose, and if they really are the future of, say, technical writing, or writing on the Internet, are we destined to read shitty blogspam forever? Will everyone's writing become lame and highschoolery and robotic? Or will being able to write in a more interesting way become yet another key indicator of humanity and sincerity that we look out for?

Agreed. The “magic” is just CSS used effectively, explained elegantly.

This is literally my job everyday now as a principal. I enjoy it, but it's quite grueling, tbh.
I mention the kid only because it was the the main change to sickness exposure. I suspect public transport and office work would have been enough.

Given what we could read about covid, exposure is a combination of length and probability of sharing air with sick people. Public transport is a short exposure with many people, evening with friend, long exposure, but less people. Kid: well for all the sickness they have bad immunity for, and the long length of exposure, you have good chances ti get something that you never had or have no immunity for anymore.

My experience is that I now use public transport every day and I have two kids, I get sick time to times, but much less than a few years ago.
> Humans derive a lot from process, not the final product.

tbh, your comment doesn't convey this belief at all. Btw a couple of generations ago artists were upset over people like Jeff Koons & Warhol. Creative process or fame/fortune. Pick one.

I can see commercial artists, illustrators, etc. who mostly end up doing what the client wants anyway (so "process" is not the main issue) to make a living being upset here. Corporate corridors and offices need "art" and sure, this trend will cut into that business. But not the tiniest of dents has been made in the universe of actually creative minds, imo.
AMD says tech will keep Moore’s Law alive for 6 to 8 years
Apple doesn’t tend to do that. They don’t unofficially beta test things with groups of users like Google or Facebook might.

If you’ve had access, my guess is a mistake was made and you were not supposed to be on the magic list.

Very cool.
It certainly could and depends on the questions being asked. If you are sending out a questionnaire via email and some of the questions are along the lines of "how many times a day do you check your email?" or "how much time do you spend at your computer?" you could certainly get some skewed results.
So what's the next hackernews? Anyone have a link?

Reason I ask is comments like this are objectively wrong yet continue to be the norm here.
If you pick "high IQ" as the definition of "genius", this isn't true. Right around the point where and individual would be considered a "genius", the correlation between income and IQ breaks down. So a super-genius makes about the same amount of money as a very smart, but within the bell curve, person.

I would imagine this holds true for other definitions of genius, but I haven't seen quantitative data on it.
During my childhood the gift of longhand was a regular Unsatisfactory on my report cards. I briefly broke the streak in third grade--my teacher must have been really something to motivate me. These days I write cursive for notes and Christmas cards, and that's about it.
The underlying contract stipulates a change of ownership. For this change of ownership to have legal effects (iow, to actually happen), it needs to be registered at the Land Registry. Transferring an NFT does not magically result in a change of ownership being registered at the LR, so it's unclear what it actually accomplishes.
This is the crux of the issue. If society places value on more future taxpayers, it needs to create the environment where more people want to create future taxpayers. We would have "probably" been fine having a couple kids, but in the US you're often one job loss and major illness or accident away from permanent debt and/or bankruptcy. So we opted out.
Chips primarily require silicon, which is not a rare-earth metal (it is rather abundant), but it takes a lot of expensive equipment and energy to purify it and slice it into wafers.

TSMC currently sources their wafers from Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Germany and others:

(edit: that PDF is out of date, but the wafer supplier list largely isn't)
The Tarn attempted to make a graphical game (he and his brother have always had The Game™ in their minds, and have approached it various times) and it was a complete wash; Tarn didn't know enough about graphics to do that part, and considered it as a distraction. That was Slaves to Armok I - which is why DF's official title is Slaves to Armok: God of Blood Chapter II: Dwarf Fortress.

He chose to skip all the graphics entirely, use ASCII to render the simulation, and focus on the "story-telling simulation" instead.

And though he added support for tile sets and some rendering, that's mainly how it worked since. It's taken about 2+ years for this Steam release to happen, and that's with a lot of support; during those years DF has basically been "stalled" and not much new has happened in the simulation. This has to be a bit disappointing to Tarn, as that's what he enjoys most.
If you've designed your sampling properly, a 75% response rate is more than sufficient. Maybe that was choice C? This isn't really a statistics question per se; it's a question about how to design and operate a research survey. Suggesting that you need a 100% response rate is absurd and perpetuates a deep misunderstanding of research design.
They bought all the ad space in one edition, they didn’t buy the printing business or any other part of the NYT
For those who are interested in more details about this, I wrote a paper that examines the delay and trust discrepancies between Mozilla and its derivative root stores (e.g., Linux, NodeJS, etc.): https://zanema.com/papers/imc21_roots.pdf
Check out the NS8 story. They were audited by one of the big firms and still passed and got funding when it was a fraud. Lightspeed was the lead VC. Maybe they are moving a little too fast.
This behavior has been called 'confabulation,' and I think the name fits well. Other people call it 'hallucination.' Confabulation in people occurs after brain damage or dementia. They make stuff up while being convinced it was a memory of theirs. I haven't seen a model yet that rejects unlikely matches when it runs out of good material, it could make it more useful.
That organization doesn’t have anything to do with Ethereum’s decision making infrastructure.

I can make a “Linux Enterprise Alliance” with those companies and it wouldn’t necessarily have any influence on Linux or Linus.
I thought either this, or GE provided all of the content for an entire issue. I don't think I've read more than one or two physical newspapers in my entire life (I'm 34), so maybe "buy out" is some term of industry I'm not familiar with that makes sense to others who do read newspapers?
key to this is 'print,' though. NYT reaches far more people digitally these days - I think it's around 10 million. (and then plenty of folks see articles that aren't subscribing.

Technically it suceededed by repressing public train transportation in California :/
It's enabled on the workshop but IIRC tileset changes may have to come in a bit later.
If China really thinks their completely untested military can easily pull off the largest amphibious assault in history, they deserve the results. It would be an absolute bloodbath. Wargame simulations are ways for the pentagon to get more money from congress… the reality is that invasions aren’t easy to hide and never go quite as planned.

If you disagree just go read up on the wargames and predictions for a Russian invasion of Ukrainian. Most people thought they’d reach Poland in days, if not hours. And they had the second most capable military in the world, on paper.
Exact same thing happened to me with Amazon. Spent a considerable amount of time interviewing with them for a manager position, then they simply ghosted with zero recruiter response for weeks on end. Finally they told me they ended up closing the position.
This is like arguing that you don’t need to drive because you can just hire a chauffeur.

> Researchers think this may be due to nicotine’s ability to stop the release of inflammation-producing cells in the digestive tract. This anti-inflammatory action may, in turn, stop the immune system from mistakenly attacking good cells in the intestines.

Wow. That sounds very similar to some of the current theories of long covid.
Thanks for the tips.

But have to do some more re-thinking on the specifics.
The whole lens thing was what really turned me off to Haskell in the first place. It seems like I would never get it and it's hard to want to be in a language where you don't get something.
No carrot I'm afraid :D
I think this decision was 100% made by TSMC and the US. Both get what they want:
- continuity of operations and safety for TSMC
- locally sourced chips for the US and most importantly
- much diminished importance for Taiwan, meaning they do not have to defend it with troops (which is the most important aspect of war - see Afghanistan, Vietnam, and so on).
Yes. And the solution to that is simplifying and digitising them. Blockchains are not required. I mean, if Moldova figured it out, so can "many other jurisdictions".
If you respond the same way to raids every time, it will not feel very dynamic. However, there are a lot of defensive tools you unlock in the mid-to-late game that really spice up your combat. If you want things to feel fresh, try building a base around a few mortar launchers or build things out of stone and give everyone flamethrowers. The possibilities are fairly limitless.
> In many Western nations, we have a plummeting birth rate, and this may well be because women are increasingly refusing to have sex on men's terms. Immersed in violent, degrading pornography, the expectations of many men regarding sex are now incompatible with women who want a loving relationship in which to raise a family.

That's not it at all. Women are more picky with regards to partners because they have more economic agency. Kids also aren't a given for the same reason, plus less societal pressure to have kids.

This is purely anecdotal but more of my partners were into "rough" sex than 18 year old me would have ever expected. Women (and men) also have much different criteria for casual sex versus life partners...
in that case you should bet on yourself and start your own company. It comes down to risk and reward
In my experience presence detection, if you want it to be useful, almost always has to be custom for your situation. Everyone has different patterns based on personal preference and living situation. Glad you figured yours out!

NodeRed is great. I don't use it but if you don't want to spend a ton of time writing rote automation in code it's a dope option (and that's an absolutely fair take to have imo).
I'm a developer and honestly ChatGPT and GitHub copilot handle 90 percent of the frontend/templates and 40 percent of my code is now somehow enriched by ai. It's remarkable and has helped cut way back on burnout.
That was just the usual local incompetence. They cut a cable and couldn't get it reconnected. I don't recall the exact number, but it wasn't many houses.

Europe is actually pretty connected wrt the electricity network, so if we'll ever encounter an actual blackout you can expect it to be covered everywhere, especially in Chinese/Russian media as they'll be meme-ing how much better they're.

Despite having countless localized outages all the time, but hey... You know how dictatorships work. Can't let the truth get in the way of propaganda after all.

The linked article is about the fact that there isn't a plan how to handle a full blackout, precisely because there hasnt been one. It's the same for all developed nations, outage just haven't happened in ages so contingencies have been forgotten, basically.
Most entrepreneurs have a batting average that is closer to .000 than .500.
The old Apple TV 4K can show lyrics today. I’d fully expect it to get this feature. Probably the HD as well.

Telnetd is deprecated here.

When I started hosting professional web hosting in 1997, telnet was the standard way to log into servers. FreeBSD, which we used, didn't integrate SSH into the base system until 2000. In practice, no credentials were known to be compromised by sending them in plaintext. I recall a pretty rapid industry switch from telnet to SSH when it became available outside of OpenBSD.
I'm not as impressed with ChatGPT as many people on here. When I've really challenged it to find any sort of actual understanding of stuff it's trained on, there was very little to be found. And I've yet to see anyone code anything with chatGPT that hasn't been written a million times before. And Codex was already a thing. It regularly fails to follow simple instructions. Its "alignment" features can be switched off in 4 words.
Rackspace says ransomware is behind four-day Exchange outage
LN's shortcomings are not issues for zkrollups on Ethereum. Transactions are stored on chain, just in compressed form. A contract checks the validity of all transactions before storing them. The proofs are expensive to generate, but so cheap to verify that a contract can do it on chain.
That is what it should be. From what I've seen most architects aren't like this, they play with whatever is cool then move on to the next company while the rest of us try to untangle the mess.
Well if you're impatient like me you'll be happy to know that once they miss the first $1.5 billion interest payment they'll either default, or he'll have to sell off massive chunks of Tesla shares or stake in Spacex, potentially blowing up multiple companies in the process. So it might take a singular year or less to see how it goes.
- Keep your code reasonably clean
- Use strong typing
- Make sure your tests don't test implementation details if possible
- e.g. using more integration like tests written with react-testing-library
- e.g. using visual regression tests
- If you sense something is off about the tech stack make a POC of partially migrating to something else as soon as possible
- If the thing you tried is better come up with a plan to migrate and do it as soon as possible
- If you've followed all the bullet points above then switching to a better solution shouldn't be that difficult

That's how I try to deal with it. Also if you're not sure which thing is better do POCs with both solutions. Alternatively if you're working on a greenfield project and a week in things don't feel right don't be afraid to try rewriting it with one of the alternatives you were considering, it'll be a slight hit to productivity for a day or two but it'll pay off long term.

By following these guidelines I've never felt on a project that I've painted myself into a corner with the tech stack, or chosen something very bad that is not reversible.
