In the case of 2001, it also made the assumption that the futuristic video call would be made from... a phone booth as opposed to a mobile device networked to the station's computer.

I suspect many of us would be more inclined to just use video if we were sitting in a video booth--or, as is actually the case, from a place we've arranged to made video call from using a computer. As it is though, when I'm casually chatting with someone, I'll often be multitasking with making dinner or I'll be pausing the video I was watching on the TV. I'm not really setup for video and they're probably in the same boat.

But we know what each other look like anyway. Video is often better for a group call for various reasons but for a 1:1 chat voice is fine.
The latest processes increase transistor density but don't particularly improve costs so we are seeing very high priced products like the 4090 and the Zen 4 which are reasonable if you divide performance/price but offer more power than many people want to pay for.

I am not seeing any new machine learning algorithm that really needs the 4-series, I am not seeing any new feature in games that is "game changing". There is an market of people who have to have the absolute best for work and play but it is not the mainstream. In fact the bulk of revenue is in mobile games today and you can't take for granted simply keeping gamers in the PC ecosystem, never mind growing it.
Simpler than doing it on a (low load rating) roof, where you also have to deal with an inability to drive to where you are doing things, have low maximum weight limits, have to worry about water tightness, etc.

Even better, if the contractor screws it up, it doesn’t burn the building down or cause massive water damage. Worst case some cars catch on fire. Much cheaper!
I listened to the same podcast, and your making a huge jump in logic from your second to third paragraph with a lot of assumptions that weren’t discussed there.
I guess I initially misunderstood what you meant by timing, but that makes sense.
it's not really a theoretical problem, people actually die or experience brain damage from falling over while standing still; we know a fall of that distance is dangerous. Helmets reduce the impact and save lives and brains. The only real question is the frequency of the falls taking place from bicycles.
In Ayurveda warm milk was always the go to cure for Indian Hindu sages for centuries, mixed with Haldi (tumeric) and Adarak (ginger). However more recently Cows are injected with growth hormone, estrogen, then fed masses of pesticide and fertislier ridden crop to fatten then, followed by large scale antibiotics. All of this is now making milk an inferior product. Watch cowspiracy, game changers and fed up for more info.
JSON cannot be efficient for binary data or even utf8 strings because it needs escaping which means you can't have a zero-copy implementation. CBOR is better in that regard, yeah.

Limited compared to a full Keycloak install probably, but I think Ory Kratos is much easier to use and enough for most use cases. IMO you often dont need to use OAuth2 or Oathkeeper if you are not doing SSO, API access control or m2m communication. But of course there are many good options and approaches.
My experience was the opposite. The best classes were those taught by professors doing active research on the topic. Separating research would drastically harm instruction.

I'm using Google Firebase Cloud Messaging [0] which allows pushing notifications to devices even if they're asleep, unlike local notification services where the device must be awake and the app must be active.

Will this service allow the same thing FCM does, including waking up the device? I'm looking at both iOS and Android devices, I see there's Flutter available but not iOS necessarily in the docs [1]. Related question, will the Flutter version also work for iOS devices? I know FCM (and its Flutter SDK) works for both, as well as web.

It's still (5.7) really bad sometimes. A simple `IN (subquery)` can sometimes run much better if the subquery is fetched and another round-trip query is made using literal values for the `IN (...)`. I'm sure there are plenty of other 'deoptimizing' query patterns that shouldn't be.

My parents' home has a boiler that dates from 1959. It still works great. Now boilers are well known to be durable, but every HVAC tech I've spoken to has said the new ones aren't expected to last sixty years.

Meanwhile a comparable modern gas furnace lasts at best twenty years.

I long for the time when I can start buying quality goods that last. As it is with small children a lot of stuff has to be disposable because the kids will destroy it. I'm talking couches, kitchen tables, etc. Small children are incredibly destructive!
Nope.

They love solar and wind because both result in a grid that for the forseeable future requires peaker plants. Usually LNG which they see as their greenwashed future.

They hate hydro for the same reason they hate nukes, they are too damn stable, entirely removing the possible need for fossil fuel based plants in base load generation or grid stability.

Lets build solar, wind, hydro and nuclear. If you can't build hydro though nukes really are the best alternative and the sooner people come around to that idea the sooner fossil fuels die.
It sounds comforting in theory but expensive in practice.

That advice has long been old startup lore even before Michael was at YC.

But wrt literal IQ (I recall the advice being "smarter" than the average person in the room, not IQ specifically), I think the intended meaning is more "cognitive ability" or i.e., ability to learn quickly.

I think this is why most early stage startups can do well with mostly strong junior engineers and a lesser percentage of seniors to oversee the cloud engineering concerns like scale, architecture, infrastructure, security, etc.
I've seen code that

(a) issued an async read

(b) did some computation

(c) used the buffer filled in by that async read

... without actually seeing if the read completed. Hilarity ensued when the CPU got faster. This was in stuff that shipped to hundreds of thousands of customers.

If you're having a good day, you can definitely address that problem by reading device drivers for a few hours.
This looks really nice. I've been fiddling around building newsletter-adjacent products for a few years, and I've been wanting a simple Substack-alternative* that's good for casual use so that I can recommend it to users.

Can I make one request? Please provide single opt-in as an option! v2 invisible Recaptcha is effective for stopping bots, and most of the time people won't even be shown a challenge. Double opt-in confirmation emails only have about a 70% conversion rate in my experience (and that's counting only people who get past Recaptcha), so you lose a big chunk of subscribers. I almost started using Ghost a while ago for my own newsletter, but no single opt-in is just a deal breaker for me.

See also https://mailchimp.com/resources/why-single-opt-in-and-an-upd...

*Substack _is_ good for casual use, but I have various beefs with them, the main one being that they're trying to build yet another platform instead of being part of an ecosystem.
Ask HN: How do you overcome decision paralysis when shopping?
In my home country (not the US), shopping was simple: Just go to a few stores and see what's available (they often carried similar items). Then make a purchase and go home.

In the US, however, there aren't many shops where I live. Everyone I know buys things online, but there are many e-commerce websites and each has its own perks and quirks.

Let's just consider Amazon. I fully experience the paradox of choice whenever I search for something on Amazon, because there are 100s or even 1000s of options that I don't know which one to choose. I spend hours and hours trying to buy even the simplest things (e.g., a butter dish, skillet, etc.)

What are your strategies to deal with this situation? Are there better search engines than Amazon's builtin search that can help reduce the noise when shopping?
Evidently, m68k is still in use, otherwise the recent change would not have been noticed.
So the TIA (the Atari video chip) has a "delay" slot for its "player" graphics--a player being an 8 dot wide object - the CPU is supposed to program in new data the player graphics register during the HBLANK portion of the display for each scaline it's visible.

The intention was that the CPU would spend 1 scan line updating P0 graphics, then the next scan line updating P1 graphics, and by setting the delay for P0, both player graphics would appear on the same 2-line portion.

So "2 line kernels" were doing it in a way the TIA supported and providing time to do other things like check paddle status (because you're supposed to be programming a Pong game). Of course the TIA has been wonderfully pushed and twisted in ways never imagined by the designer. I think someone even experimented with interlaced 160x400 graphics.
Does anyone else still receive round robin letters? Multi page letters from friends or family that were the same and sent to everyone at this time of year. I remember one person's in particular that was basically just a recap of this year's misery including their various health problems etc. It would be read aloud at the Christmas dinner table while the family would all giggle at their terrible experiences. My wife's family had a terribly dark sense of humour.
Tried doing a newsletter in my final year of highschool, around the time of the 2008 financial crisis.

Got a couple classmates and a few bemused teachers signed up, and once a month wrote up 500 words talking about what was going on in our small little town.

Turned out to be a precursor to my career in journalism. But still, it's an obsolete method of news. No one wants to click an email to see a wall of text anymore.

It is very difficult to review assembly code for bugs. Static analysis tools also cannot see bugs involving assembly code in general. :/
I was not thinking in terms of startups losing control but rather startups sharing and getting YC’s insights into candidates. Plus startups not being bogged down with terrible candidates if YC were to filter it for them. It’s Efficiency in scale all around honestly.

What are the options to avoid the status treadmill?

Faking displays seems hard (status markers are chosen for their difficulty to fake, presumably the easy faking is done by everyone, and I guess high cost if busted and competition to catch others out?)

Can you be so competent that you can ignore the status rules? Presumably difficult, because competence is hard to measure, and competitively it is hard to achieve a significantly higher level of competence than others? A status player can have mistakes forgiven, but betting on competence requires you never make a misstep?

Or do you just optimise for a level of acceptable status, and maximise savings?

What happens to those that bug out?

I guess it depends on whether you believe in the funding effect.

A problem that may ORMs have is thinking/working with row-expressions rather than sets. If everything is expressed in plural sometimes with zero or one, other times many, then the N+1s mostly go away. The same goes for many interfaces/APIs that have single and multiple forms, only make the multiple forms and have callers call it with [single].

Related pet peeve: calling tables by plural names. The table (or any relation) should be named for the set of X rather than thinking of it as Xs.

Makes me curious about their side of the decision. If they essentially told you, on the last day of your trial, that they aren't hiring you, that's not very respectful of your job search.

FWIW: Most startups fail. Most startups will evolve to be a place that you won't like. There is a reason why startups have such high turnover.

In my case, often when I ask a founder tough questions, I get rejected. It's okay, because I probably won't have the patience to work for someone who can't answer my tough questions.

But, getting back to you: I suspect "funding" is a convenient excuse, but I wouldn't read too much into it. Instead, I suggest being a lot more defensive in the process: Don't do 1-month contracts.

Instead, target ~6-month contracts with a ~1-week trial and a ~3 week severance. Explain that you've found that 1-month trials are impractical given how much time you spend interviewing. Point out that, just like the contracting status protects the company, you need severance to protect yourself too.
It's like you read my comment but didn't read the article thus are missing important context on what comment was saying.

There's a reason builders and remodelers choose to put gas appliances into homes. It's exactly for the posers. It increases profits. So while you personally may not have made that specific selection it was made with the idea of what sells best in mind not what is best for cooking at this price level. So of course if you ignore the entire environmental factors and the home air quality factors that come along with gas and the fact that no residential kitchen exhaust system is designed to deal with those then I guess it's perfectly adequate on the same scale as breathing in second hand smoke is.

As for the wok thing that only came up because it is specifically mentioned in the article. And my point was it was a silly thing to bring up because, I don't know that I buy your 90% argument people have lots of kitchen utensils here but, almost nobody will have a real wok burner in their house. Those that do have them probably aren't in their house due to the massive heat output. Instead they use them outside similar to how people use grills and hibachis.

This is hyperbole.

The Australian government is bringing in a price cap of $12 per gigajoule (well above historical gas prices, and well above long-term contract prices for Australian LNG in Japan) for domestic customers.

Whatever the merits of this action, it’s a very very very long way from “nationalising the sector”. The Western Australian gas industry (on the other side of the country on a completely separate grid) has long had a regulation mandating a minimum proportion of WA’s gas must be sold to domestic customers, meaning local gas prices there are unaffected by the global shifts in prices. Heck, that bastion of capitalism, the United States of America, completely banned the export of natural gas and oil until 2015.

That study has a far narrower scope, and neither looked at all health impacts from milk consumption because the literature isn’t there.

“Milk and dairy products: good or bad for human health? An assessment of the totality of scientific evidence” did look at many health impacts and all cause mortality which is a proxy for heath. But it didn’t particularly get into why it was dismissing studies showing decreased lifespan associated with milk consumption beyond listing studies showing the reverse. By comparison it spent a while focusing on why the association with colorectal cancer may not be an issue.

That said, there isn’t a good way to measure all health impacts from specific foods because total health is so complicated. On top of this there are many confounding factors, presumably Truffles could be linked to health because consumption is linked to wealth. But nobody wants to publish “Milk: not extremely poisonous, more research needed.”
