Yeah, I don't know how I would have gone past that point. There's also the weird capitalization of words after commas and "Screening Test/Interview Questions" and if you do bother to make it past email two it changes to "Screening test/Interview Questions" and really bad grammar in general.

Those kinds of silly mistakes are nearly intolerable on resumes, why would it be acceptable for a hiring manager or HR to communicate using horrible grammar?
Even Indian English follows grammatical rules, the difference would be the words used, idiomatic sentences etc.

The 2 biggest problems you'd want to solve for first are (a) who will buy the power("offtaker") and (b) where the solar project will be placed. If it's commercial, often it will be at the offtaker's location. There is a competitive industry competing for these customer already of course.
Legacy is bit different place. There would be enough players hitting hard in various ways both ICANN and Verising running it that it won't happen.

Technically they could, but it wouldn't end up well. Probably even nation states would have a word or piles of paper.

This strikes me as revisionist. Research Unix v8-20 had quietly trended towards more things-as-files. The hardware environment that Plan 9 assumed was very different - separate file servers, compute servers and graphic workstations, plus it came out when Microsoft and Windows were at their maximum power.

Beyond all that, today's leading OS, Linux, has incorporated many of Plan 9's ideas. /proc filesystem, the signalfd system call, and UTF-8 are all examples.

I remember one breaking syntax change in PHP 7 a larger project was affected and it was tested with grep and fixed with sed in a matter of minutes.

There is benefit if you have the project under test and can run the build with different php versions thought. Best in parallel so you have current, next and future. It perhaps becomes the norm since the yearly release cycle but always was a requirement when supporting different php versions.
I disagree. The quality of ChatGPT output isn't likely to be worse than the average HN comment, rather it's likely to be better as it doesn't contain outrage, bias and bad faith interpretation, nor would it likely violate site guidelines. ChatGPT could likely simulate the bulk of many repetitive conversations by pre-submitting the typical pattern of common responses to a thread, which would make the forum far more efficient in that it's no longer necessary for a human being to involve themselves in such performative tedium.

Far from being banned, I think ChatGPT should be integrated into HN and given mod privileges. Not only should it be used to generate high quality conversations, it should be able to detect and downvote low-quality human generated content. Eventually, we could dispense with human comments altogether.

If land cover is the issue, isn't this a great use case for the airship tech that refuses to die? No land issues, no roof issues, relatively clean area, movable according to weather.. It would be crazy expensive, but airships are keep getting invested in anyway, so why not try adding solar?
I use keepassxc, I would love to manage my private/public keys in the same way I manage my passwords. I'm in complete control.

In the PDF at the link you provided, I found what you're referring to at page 311 (in-document numbering) which is page 321 per my pdf viewer.

So, yes, it did auto increment. I think what happened is that after 35 years, I just recalled my initial aggravation with addressing the 8563's RAM through that keyhole of R18, R19, R31.

But .. looking around in the ol PRG, and finding some of Mr Herd's "choice comments" out on the web, I'd still say the 8563 was a dog. Case in point, having to poll D600 for bit 7 to become set just to make sure the 8563 had cottoned onto your request to set a register.

That bottleneck to get to the 8563's RAM was not fun. The bottleneck to get into the 8563s own registers was even goofy. Why not just map them to D600-D61F ?
That seems a bit high, are you sure you're not confusing it with the President/Vice president of the commission?
It's not, though. You're given all kinds of labels as you go through life whether you want it or not. If you don't act on that, you're accepting the defaults. That doesn't mean there are no labels on you.
Society treated twitter as something more, and twitter adapted as it grew.

Despite the recent disruptive events, society still treats twitter as a public square. Politicians, celebrities, charities, and governments all make announcements there. So many updates on the russian invasion of Ukraine have been put on twitter but not facebook or instagram.

My personal opinion is that twitter is a public square. I don't know what that means legally, because it is an international public square with all the judicial/governmental chaos that implies. I guess an alternative would be to have "twitter is a USA public square" kind of language on the site, but that may well dampen any participation from non-US people.
The anti-trans movement masquerades as feminism but is essentially a retread of the anti-gay arguments of 1960-2000. Gays need medical help. Gays shouldn’t be allowed in spaces with children. Gay men don’t belong in spaces where real men interact (like the army) because they’d be colonizing them with their unbridled sexuality. Etc.

This is hardly the kind of thing where a prudent CEO spends $44B to make a stance.

Stable Diffusion is tiny compared to ChatGPT.

The largest image generation model I've seen images from is Google Parti, which is an order of magnitude larger than Stable Diffusion. Still small enough that you might be able to run it on a 24GB consumer GPU with some optimizations though, so hopefully Stable Diffusion will get there in some months.

Have a look at the four kangaroo pictures here to get an idea of the difference

Yeah, it is suggestive of "first-world problems" and a bizarrely rigid personality (and a lack of a sense of humor). (According to the "About" page, the author is "specialized in software engineering and digital signal processing". Perhaps a case of déformation professionnelle?)
I used to hate diet colas, but then I became diabetic and had no choice but to drink them if I wanted a soda (I don't drink much pop in general). After a few years I just stopped being able to taste the weird diet aftertaste it used it have. In fact sometime I worry I wouldn't be able to taste if I were drinking a sugar cola by mistake.

So now I think people who prefer diet beverages may just not be tasting the same thing.
Given that a majority of "shadowbans" were just Boomers misunderstanding how (A) the Internet works technically and (B) Twitter works specifically, this seems like a fool's errand.
> because when the system runs out of memory everything becomes so slow that benchmark performance doesn't matter anymore

Huh? When the system is getting close to running out of memory, isn't the least-recently-used memory swapped out to disk by the OS? And if you're using an SSD like nearly everyone these days, it isn't even noticeable.

Freezing tabs is a good idea to ensure the memory stops being accessed precisely so it can be swapped... but besides this, why not let the browser use all the memory it needs, and just let swap do its job? It seems entirely redundant for a browser to try to save memory by essentially implementing its own secondary swap strategy.
I almost hate to say this to not give scammers any ideas, but it seems pretty obvious to me that you can buy look-alike domains that most people wouldn't think too much about. For example, autonationusa.com, autonationcorp.com, autonation-corp.com, autonation-hq.com, internal-autonation.com hr-autonation.com, autonationrecruiting.com, autonation-hiring.com and so on, you get the idea.

There are even other TLDs you could play with that most non-tech people would think are legit. For example auto-nation.co or autonation.inc autonation.corporation. All of these would cost less than $20. I haven't checked these all for availability, but I suspect at least half the ones on this list are available, and even if they aren't you can play with different combinations to get something that is available. The purpose is only to fool people at first glance.

While most people on HN might know that internal-autonation.com does not actually mean its from autonation, I suspect it would still fool a lot of HN readers. Outside of tech workers, I think this technique would fool the vast majority of the population.

You could even buy a domain for something like new-fake-hrm-saas.com and make a fake website for a fake SaaS HRM/Recruiting tool. Then send all emails from that domain. If anyone asks, you can say that intial emails go through that SaaS tool until you have fully onboarded. This is something legit that actually happens in real life early on in the hiring process when they want all hiring correspondance to go through an HRM tool. Again, maybe a tech worker would be cautious of this technique, but most people would be none the wiser. This would allow you to maintain one domain for multiple scams so you could easily burn one if you get exposed. You could even do subdomains with it like autonation.fakehrm.com and salesforce.fakehrm.com and so on for each company you impersonate.

Again, this isn't to give people ideas. But this could be easily done for $20 a year and minimal effort. (The fake hrm saas site could be a template site, all real SaaS sites look the same anyway).

Yeah, while I would in theory applaud the example of "scientist" that Graham gave, let's not delude ourselves, it's quite vulnerable to exactly this kind of failure mode. Some other examples : scientism, "angry atheism", "rationalism" (mostly for the arrogant and historically opposite meaning for that last one)...

Deprecation warnings for the most. But those can be taken away so you can have PHP 5/7/8 code without much deviation.

More than a LTS release I'd prefer more PHP 8 releases than the five in 7.x, e.g. more until 8.8 or 8.9.
I agree with this. We are shipping our app Caido with Tauri and it is missing quite a lot in feature parity with electron. We always lose time to try to bypass limitations or work around bugs. I honestly can't recommend it for production at this moment, even if it is getting better.

Some of the challenges we faced in the last week: no built-in api for single instances (so basically making sure the app is only run once), no support for the task bar menu (right click on the app icon), a fair amount of APIs are platform specific so you need a lot of conditional compilation trickery to make it work, etc.

On top of that you have platform webview issues that are hard to reproduce sometimes since you need the user specific OS version and packages. If you care about uniformity of your UX and speed of development stick with electron.
I expect all the kitchen equipment will go for market value and no less. There's literally an entire little industry in every mid-size city or larger of people who keep an eye on restaurant closures and snatch up the equipment. That includes any business big enough to have an institutional kitchen so they'll definitely be on this one. Most new restaurants open with mostly used equipment and it comes from things like this.
You seem to have read a different article than the one I linked, since your comment is incoherent given the contents of the linked article.

E.g. the lists literally include the 1936 (Nazi) Olympics, which is just about the textbook example of using a global sporting event for the sake of propaganda. Jesse Owens certainly threw a wrench in those (white supremacist) plans, however.

You could, in theory, make a label out of not labeling yourself but that isn't what we're talking about.

I can see how labels are useful for finding community. One potential negative of using labels to find a community is that labels can be exclusive. For example, a label like "LGBTQ+" may exclude people who do not identify as part of that community, even if they have similar experiences or interests. This can create a sense of exclusion and may prevent people from finding the support and connection they are looking for.
To be honest, for transformers just go to huggingface.co and see what interests you. They have tons of examples to run and they also link to all the papers in the documentation. It doesn't get much easier to get into it. Even for the more recent stuff like vision transformers and diffusion models.
> For some kinds of messages a near-real-time text chat is the right channel but async email-like flow would be entirely the wrong channel.

What's an example? I encounter maybe one situation per month where I'd consider asynchronous communication "wrong", despite having multiple synchronous meetings per day.

In the situations where it is wrong, no one (IME) pings anyone with "hello......", They schedule time on a calendar (asynchronously).

Steam Deck.
Videogames are my hobby, but I didn't want to sit more in the same chair after working there all day.

Playing on the couch is hard with 2 children, and we go to bed early, so I didn't have any way to play that didn't involve sacrifice.

With the steam deck, I can play 1 hour in bed before sleep, hug my sleeping children and my wife and then sleep.

No, not everyone is labeled by default. Labels are used to describe or identify a person or group, and not everyone uses or identifies with labels. Some people may choose to use labels to describe themselves or their experiences, while others may not feel that any existing labels accurately reflect who they are. It is ultimately up to each individual to decide whether or not they want to use labels to describe themselves or their experiences.

To paraphrase another comment on this; if I have to trust the server for Matrix E2EE to work, why don’t I just use Slack? The whole point of E2EE is so you don’t have to trust the server.

And a “warning” that says something like “your group chat has been compromised by someone with access to the server or it might just be bob bought a new phone” is laughable as a status quo.
Yes that's pretty much it
Now I agree with you, but what about all the arrests of politicians in China ... some are revenge by other corrupts, some are truly about justice... There are places were all is corrupt, and it can happen to your country too :)
I found this summary [1] more illuminating.

Also, the title is a bit misleading. The main achievement was that some scientists managed to produced an isotope of sodium with 11 protons and 28 neutrons. If you head to wikipedia [2], you'll find that sodium is listed with at most 24 and 26 neutrons, with half lives of about 1.5 milliseconds and 60 nanoseconds. This makes sense, the further away you are from the stable isotope(s) (11 protons and 12 neutrons in the case of sodium), the more unstable the isotope.

This experiment smashed calcium-48 against berillium atoms. Calcium-48 is a quasi-stable isotope of calcium: its half life is millions of times longer than the age of the universe. It has an unusually high number of neutrons. In the early part of the periodic table the stable isotopes have roughly an equal number of protons and neutrons. Ca-48 has 20 protons and 28 neutrons. Smashing Ca-48 against Be is a good way to generate isotopes with lots of neutrons.

It took half a quintillion collisions to produce 9 sodium-39 nuclei. Which promptly decayed, obviously. They did not produce enough sodium-39 to be able to measure macro characteristics such as density, melting and boiling temperature, etc. Just enough to get an estimate of the half life.

They generated some other neutron rich isotopes and estimated their half lives.

How well did these half-lives align with the theoretical predictions? Here's the interesting part. Although we know the fundamental forces of nature, we can't model large nuclei starting from those forces. That type of modeling is called "ab initio" [3]. Or, rather, we can, but it's exceedingly challenging, very computationally intensive, and we need to take various theoretical shortcuts. As an alternative, people build empirical models, and fit various parameters to existing observations. The oldest such models were the liquid drop model of the nucleus [4] and the nuclear shell model [5], developed around WW2.

Lots of refinements of the nuclear shell model were made. The way to tell which one is better is to make new observations and check which model made the better prediction.

It turns out the model that best matched the newly observed Na-39 was a model published in 2020 [6].

Now, Na-39 was not the only isotope made by this experiment. Among others, they also produced Mg-38, which had a half-life shorter than any of the existing models can predict.

This is good news. It means we have experimental evidence that will allow us to further improve our theoretical models.

And these guys will not stop. They'll keep smashing various isotopes and generating new ones, and they'll make new observations.

I used to work as an ambulance driver, and people with heart attacks often had no idea. One time a patient even called a doctor, who visited him at home and told him it's probably just a stomach bug, but he should get it checked out in the hospital just to be sure. I was driving with an experienced colleague, who looked at the patient and said, that's no stomach bug. Turned out to be a severe heart attack, they immediately rushed him to the cardiac catheter lab at the hospital.

Anyway, people die from heart attacks all the time because they don't realise what's going on before it's too late.

It's not that it's a petrostate, it's that this has been the view of the region forever. This region did not come to the moral conclusion that slavery was wrong, they only stopped when Europeans showed up with gun boats and forced them to cut it out (Also, why isn't anyone asking these guys wtf happened to all the black slaves they imported because basically none of them exist in the region today despite the region likely taking more slaves during the slave trade than the USA. The answer is obviously castration and murder if one looks into it). This attitude has been present in this region since antiquity, finding oil just caused a white washing of the practice to something just below causing European gun boats to show up while expanding the practice dramatically.
I guess I'm arguing that a conscious choice not to find a tribe just leads to unconsciously finding a tribe instead.

Maybe the real answer is both, though - try to consciously avoid tribal thinking, but also acknowledge that it's likely to creep in anyway, and be aware when it does.
