This is an amazing piece of work and as others have said, the site and the UI are perfect.

On a side note, Huberman Labs bothers me. I was an avid listener to the early episodes. As I have ADHD, some of his explanations of the brain chemistry involved in attention and motivation were fascinating. But in one of the early-ish episodes he said some completely ridiculous about acupuncture (that it worked) that makes me think he has no real critical thinking skills.

I hope anyone out there listening to him and thinking about applying any of the approaches he talks about just takes the time to see whether any other sources say they have real-world effects.

To the credit of the author, this tool highlights the exact thing I'm talking about. Try searching for...

"How does acupuncture work?"

"Acupuncture involves taking needles and sometimes electricity and or heat as well and stimulating particular locations on the body. Through these maps of stimulation that have been developed over thousands of years, mostly in Asia, acupuncture can reduce inflammation in the body by stimulating the body in particular ways at particular sites on the body, liberating certain cells and molecules that enhance the function of the immune system and potentially can be used to combat different types of infection."
You're rightly miffed at faceless tech, though I sincerely believe the issue will get sorted out, and then you leave Stripe. Good luck.

You're right about the phone number "...Note: We do not have an inbound support phone number at the moment. Request a phone call to connect with Stripe Support by phone..."

In case you missed it, a callback can be requested.

It's true that lossless is often not the best approach, although it's worth pointing out that anyone can implement Quite OK while both the approaches you mention are not really friendly to open source.

Well, you can always fix your abstraction layer if it breaks. This is not true if you use a closed-source solution.

So, are there any open-source solutions available?

It's a typical setup, PayPal even have the automated daily bank withdrawal for merchants. What you probably fail to mention or notice that the company transferred the money once they clear the mandatory hold window.

Exact width of the window may be adjusted case by case and depends on the stuff you sell — e.g. if it's digital goods with immediate delivery it may be shorter, if it's physical goods it may be certain amount of days after delivery verified by tracking number. In my case I was working for a company that provided proxy auction participation support, PayPal forced 30d non-negotiable hold on all our transactions.

So, you may transfer it every night, but it's safe to assume that 25-100% of your monthly revenue going through PayPal is sitting there at all times.
Don't use US American payment providers if you can avoid it.

It's a national sport over there to figure out new ways of getting people's money, whether it's peculiar made-up fees, or like in your case plain robbery under the ironical guise of crime prevention.
In continuous scroll mode, they removed a subtle progress indicator in the margin with a chunky slider control (exactly the same style as used for the volume in Control Center or a smart lightbulb in Home). It's almost comical.

My only complaint with the previous version was that it was too easy for an errant swipe to create a highlight. This has been replaced by every other swipe being interpreted as a double tap, creating a bookmark on every single page.
Cats are invasive species to North America and are high quality predators. Their food supply is quite large.

I guess this is Fastmail :)
Maybe we can "solve" rats or hogs similar way: feeding and veterinary care.

The real problem is cats are protected. Anything bad happens, and we see articles like this. In reality it is invasive predatory species and should be treated as such!
I don't kow why you are (at the moment) downvoted.

This publication is only PR from a university and as usual what the real scientific publication tells is very different:

- This univ PR seems to tell that even terminal stage patients may benefit from strong exercise: "Importantly, this exercise induced medicine occurs in patients with incurable, advanced cancer".

Nothing in the Nature article tells something remotely close to that.

- The scientific article [0] only tells that serum collected on those patients, when mixed *in vitro" with commercial cancerous cell lines, showed a reduction in cell growth. It's something that can be observed with a variety of means and it is certainly not a breakthrough.

For example with propolis from honey bees [1], or Astralagus [2]. Yet nobody claims that propolis or astralagus cure cancer.

Show HN: Decorate your Christmas tree with cards from your friends and family
Hey guys I made this website where you can share your tree, then get your friends and family to decorate it with their Christmas cards .

Those cards will be open to read starting Dec.25th.

I personally LOVE Christmas and wanted to make people happy and exchange their new year messages no matter how far away they are.

Welcome any feedbacks, as I in real life literally have no friends that can get opinions from. Thank you.
Looks like this isn't based on OpenAI's whisper, but on a model trained with RNNT loss using K2/icefall (https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall; K2 is next generation of Kaldi). As such, it should in principle support customized vocabulary and LM for beam search decoding.
Normal maps, certainly. I was more confused by the parent's claim that this applied to "pretty much all modern 3D rendering".

With video game graphics I'm surprised that PC games aren't handled differently. To the extent that TVs aren't garbage (huge assumption) traditional SDR TVs mostly target sRGB. But PC monitors can be almost anything, there are a ton of wide gamut (e.g. P3) screens out there, and saturated games can be retina-searing on them.
This group are cooperating to define common data structures and references - for data under their respective purviews - to supercede the status quo, where each company uses their own proprietary structures (a status quo which results in tedious work - for mapping projects the world over - when data from different sources is combined in a project).

That is the "GERS" and "Schema" aspects of the project.

It's very much back-end stuff, but the vision is that the resulting data collaboration will improve the job of working with map data from different sources.

Leading to the other key project points, "QA" - whereby data from different sources can be more easily compared and corrected, once it's all sharing common structures and IDs; and ultimately the last key project point "Collaborative Map Building", which all the previous steps have worked to enable.

Commercial service/product might be an end point for the Overture project as a whole, leveraging all the aforementioned work to result in (they hope) a kind of "mapping data consortium", but frankly what most of us care about is the way data (and it's interoperation) in general may be improved by this keystone effort. Such that, a few years down the track, we back-end map workers can source data from different places and have it all line up - I don't mean spatially, but in data structure and identity.
The original chart https://esc.nccu.edu.tw/upload/44/doc/6963/Tondu202206.jpg shows even more the movement away from unification with China.

The lack of support for "Full Independence" rather than the Status Quo of effective independence they have now is usually explained by people not choosing a policy that provokes China into attack.
There is a more modern rewrite that does away with the 4 gigabyte limit of the original[1]. I am not sure if the performance characteristics are the same.

I agree with this. Last week out of a sudden we had an increase in rejected payments from Stripe so we simply switched to Verifone for which we already had an integration. The switch is manual however so we're currently automating it.

Any radioactive element is always radioactive.

There are no circumstances that can influence its radioactivity, short of placing it inside a nuclear explosion or inside a high-energy particle accelerator.

Nevertheless, most naturally occurring radioactive elements have a radioactivity that is low enough to not pose any danger.

If you haven't heard Musk talk IN DEPTH about rocketry, rocket engines, etc, then you should definitely watch the videos (linked below). For all his flaws (which are many), Musk does really understand his companies to a depth I've never before seen with a CEO. I've worked with many VPs and Executive team folk and I've never met someone that can have such low-level discussions about how their tech works, the product design, tactics and strategy etc. Also, when you see Elon talk about rockets you also get to see passion and happiness he gets from discussing these topics. I personally wish he had never used social media in the first place as it clearly triggers the worst parts inside him.

Hi Kranar. See my other post with the reference to linear bounded automata. I think you're right on all points.

Also, I agree that "simulates" is probably the wrong word. There would be a one-to-one mapping between FSM states and restricted-TM (or Linear Bounded Automaton) states and it would "simulate" the TM by stepping through mapped states until it reached a terminal state, but the number of states required and the transition table would be ridiculous. I don't think it would exactly be a look-up table, but it's close. (i.e., it would be O(2^N), for a binary alphabet, to construct the transition table, but looking up the terminal state for each input state would also be O(2^N)).

That's not exactly true, since representative money work in a similar way.

Also, coins eith a fixed possible supply, such as Bitcoin, act more like commodities than fiat money.
So, sometimes you really don't anticipate the kinds of failures you can have. A really good one to remember is the "Camera Shy" Pi 2.

For those unfamiliar with this issue, or who forgot: The power regulator IC on the Pi 2 was a flip-silicon slab that was otherwise uncoated or encased. When engineers were taking pictures of it, they likely were using their cell phones and otherwise loose lighting under fluorescent or sunlight. When high intensity Xenon bulbs were used for flash photography, however, intense IR light would hit the silicon, excite something, and cause the power supply to go wobbly kneed, drop out like a Silicon Valley startup founder, and you'd have a bad day.

This failure was only figured out when someone happened to compare two flashing lights (one Xenon and one a bike light) that they figured out what was going on.

Engineers miss things all the time, even those who are supposedly really good. They are good, but humans err, because to err is human.

Prime example: I diagnosed an arcade cabinet that only had issues on sustained playtime during the summer, but never during the winter. It was fine on the off day that there was a lot of cloud cover, and only seemed to get worse after a shade awning was taken down: before the removal, it would intermittently sputter back to life during the later afternoon. Nobody knew what was going on.

I spent an afternoon watching it fail. At one point, I eventually went and grabbed an IR thermometer and pointed it at the cabinet. It was registering well into 100F. It was also outright refusing to work.

I rolled down the window blinds, pointed a fan at the poor machine, and waited for a while. Miraculously, it woke up after a while and started working.

I traced it to the three canned voltage regulators. The voltage regulators for the system were strapped to the metal chassis of the CRT, which contained the system's power supply. The machine happened to be right next to a window, and the cabinet had been painted black by the previous owner. As the daytime sun would wander over, the black paint would soak up the UV and absolutely cook the regulators. Once the sun had passed behind the shade, it was quickly cool enough inside the chassis to bring the regulators back into spec, which caused the machine to start working again. When the shade was removed, it only went back up once the sun was no longer cooking it like a roast chicken.

I believe my recommendation was "Replace the side paneling with woodgrain and move it out of the sun."

The engineer that designed that arcade machine probably never thought it'd be in a hot, New Mexico university faculty lounge next to a window that faced the sun. I remember going back about a year later and sure enough, it had moved about three feet and was "rarely, if ever broken" now.

Engineers miss things all the time.
Looking at the repo, it appears to be based on a model trained using K2/icefall (https://github.com/k2-fsa/icefall; K2 is next generation of Kaldi). It claims to be based on a LSTM Transducer model trained on the Librispeech dataset as the base, and further "trained with some extra data". No further information is provided.

Indeed, plenty of power, ESP32 even has more juice than a PC 1512, and we got plenty of games and other stuff on them.
Ask HN: Is there even one 'song lyrics' website that isn't mickey mouse?
If you are about to respond to the question by submitting a site that accepts user-submitted lyrics... nope. That's what I mean by 'mickey mouse.'

The question has deeper ramifications than it might seem at first glance. The web is now supposed to be humanity's repository for knowledge. If a 'song lyrics' website accepts user-submissions and has lower standards than Wikipedia, the result is a website full of unreliable garbage. Lyrics sites are easy to verify – other more weighty sites may not be.

To find and list a song lyric should not be a 'hard problem'. Lyrics are not secret information – when an artist records a song, someone had better publish those lyrics if they want to safeguard their intellectual property.

If the web isn't reliable for something as common and popular as song lyrics, maybe it's a sign that the business models we have today aren't conducive to serious outfits.

If anyone here is a tech columnist, by the way, maybe this is worth writing about? Is it not a bit strange to have a billion people referring to 'lyrics' websites that list an entire song accurately perhaps 50% of the time?

I think it is generally established that healthier people get cancer at a lower rate than people who don't exercise, this is an established fact.

That said, the article seems to be more about people with incurable, advanced cancer, which is good news for those people.
I'm developing game engine + game and since several months I use the QOI format. This format is amazing in my situation: I can load the textures much faster compare to PNG. Generally, it is 2-3 times faster even if the size on disk is 1.5x-2.5x larger.
Note: I use a NVME disk and I'm not sure my statement is still true on less performant hard drive.
Steam Deck comfortably runs high end AAA games like God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn and Cyberpunk 2077, in many ways with comparable performance of the base Xbox model.

Which makes sense since the hardware is similar.

So I have no idea what you're talking about, it can easily replace Xbox.
Isn't primer then the single point of failure?
well I mean proving humans caused an extinction is probably a lot easier than proving cats did, but how about this:

1.3–4.0 billion birds and 6.3–22.3 billion mammals annually

If we're not counting factory farms, the closest comparison I could find is:

> We estimate that from 500 million to possibly over 1 billion birds are killed annually in the United States due to anthropogenic sources including collisions with human-made structures

Regardless, this is obviously a huge fucking problem. Short of neutering the local humans, these ladies are probably doing the single most effective thing you can do with your time if you care about preserving the local ecosystem
All global corporations need to be regulated. I heard a number of cases, when people could not reach FB support, they just ignore everyone. Did you know? It took Stripe 10 years to do it and 7 years for Robinhood. What do you think it is?

I'm no fan of Corbyn but there was a politically motivated character assassination leading up to the election, where all major newspapers reported him and his party for anti-Semitism. The media all parroting lines fed by the Government with no critical analysis is complicit in Tories, and whoever wants to play the dirtiest, to remain in power and do whatever they want.

The naive elector sees Corbyn pissing off the Jewish groups on front pages everywhere, and or course they do not want to associate with people of that ilk. The majority trust newspapers and politicians too much, so get routinely played like a fiddle, and the best liar always wins.

The similar shit show is going to play out next election with Reform UK if the liar extraordinaire Nigel Farage decides to front it.

Developers may be biased towards Stripe because their API is among the best, and likely best-documented. (I had run into issues with the docs before, but was able to get to actual humans to resolve them. Eventually. Their first line support is just as bad as is described in any dilbertesque horror stories about outsourced support drones, giving you canned responses and having comprehension problems all the time.)

Now my theory is that Stripe will be a tad more inclined to help developers who help them build their empire via integrations and platforms and such, while actual merchants are a dime a dozen (in their eyes). I also have a perception that they have become way more MBA-aggressive in the recent years.
If the carpenter is poor and has mouths to feed, he can't pass the task even if he knows it will fail. He needs money. On the other hand google's developer has earned so much money the previous year, he can then quit any time he wants and get a new job with ease. To me it looks like the carpenter is the exploited one.
Normal human lens is already +50. How is it possible
to have +150 eye? Even if the lens is perfect sphere it cannot be +150. The focal length would be 7 millimeters.

Correction:
The focal length of sphere = 3R/2. Assuming 2 mm lens radius, most extreme case would be 3 mm which means. +333 diopters.
Now correct that.
Also something that I wasn't aware, given the amount of interpreted based BASICs, and the compilers being mostly commercial, is that the original implementation had a very crude JIT implementation.

When typing stuff on Darthmound BASIC, the instructions would be compiled straight into machine code while on the REPL, just like Lisp and co.
Everyone can and will make really bad decisions, but in my experience, owning up to mistakes and taking responsibility in contrast to playing it down and being history revisionists, is inversely proportional to, well, how clever they consider themselves be. The "well that was intentional/expected/irrelevant since it was really X instead of Y we did" is a bit worn by now. Painting broadly, generalizing etc of course.
Yes.. there are definitely online-people, and offline-people, or text-async-comm people vs personal-comm-people: for one the one way of communication is more convenient, for others the other, and for some there is barely a difference.

But this is imo fully orthogonal to Juniors not daring to ask questions, and depends on personality, the environment, the mentors, and maybe also the online- or offline-affinity vs the most prevalent tools, but as far as I observed that is the least impacting it...
