I can see a lot of potential here as an alternative for people like me who don't have or want social media accounts. Sometimes I do want to share a profile with people without linking to my business website. But managing a separate domain / server / registration / email / etc. for that purpose hasn't seemed worth it. $20 a year is pretty reasonable.

I think the one thing that would stop me from taking up on a service like this would be the "omg.lol" - it's just a little too off-brand for a guy who wears all black and hates texting. But I can see how a lot of people might be into it.
Offering 7,500 USD to uproot a family and move outside the city into the suburbs/countryside strikes me as a pretty small amount. Unless that family's not working, but then why look to move them? What am I missing?
This looks like fun, reminds me of SDF but with an ability to provide more services due to the annual fee.

edit: now that I revisit it, SDF does appear to provide more services, though probably with less commitment to reliability than omg.lol
> The military members consented to this when they joined

Did they clarify what time period the DNA covers? We’re all military subjects able to give reasonable consent? If it includes samples from before ~1953, did they even know the significance of what DNA was or how it could be used?

> voluntarily

I have uncles who served in the military via conscription in the Korean and Vietnamese wars. Is their DNA included? It certainly wasn’t voluntary.

VALL-E: Neural codec language models are zero-shot text to speech synthesizers
Last I looked into it they locked down the supported hardware pretty aggressively and I could never trace a clear line on how the "proof of coverage" was validated. The physical aspects of radio transmission that are unforgeable are a bit hard to do without dedicated hardware and large distances(ex: time of flight for GPS).

The RF nerd in me thinks it could be interesting but the skeptic makes me wonder how forgeable coverage would be and if the overhead of coverage challenges uses more of the limited spectrum than carrying actual data.

According to The Case for Space Solar Power, 40% overall efficiency with the technology at the time it was written (about a decade ago), with a theoretical maximum of 60%.

This was with microwaves from a phased array transmitter and a reference signal from the ground target, and the satellite in geostationary.
I think a lot of people who major in those subjects with very competitive jobs just don't have it in them either skillwise or motivationwise to work that hard. They have a semi interest in them, and the grading is not as harsh as many STEM fields, and they might like the idea of a not too hard job to get in those fields, but they don't have the mettle for graduate work and several underling stints to really make that a career. And college advisors are doing them a shameful disservice not to mention the actual time and intensity commitment needed to do those things.

You are really tempting me to write a long thought-out comment about how to draw a pair of buttocks, with lots of citations and quotes and code samples and a good dose of gratuitous partial differential equations needed to meet the paper quota for impressive formulas. [1]

Butfirst [2] I will refer you to my previous long thought-out comment about Sun Microsystem's dress code, the practice of "Skinnyhacking" [3] pioneered down the road at SGI [4], and the full names of the nude hackers involved [5], as well as a citation to the 1992 SIGGRAPH proceedings, and a link to a pdf of the paper [6] including a photograph of the Skinnyhackers in all their glory:

From my experience look for a strong sales team over anything else aside from funding being very low.
The comment was about NDAs used as non compete agreements.
It seems a lot of the people here think this is a bad or embarrassing situation, I would rather see this drama than everything seems to be converging quickly for the “party”’s image.

If you like fast convergence, go to China or North Korea , your request will be guaranteed.
Others have pointed out that if things could have been successfully outsourced they would have been (well?) before COVID. Other than proving that your existing staff could work outside the office, how did COVID show that offshoring/outsourcing would be ok?
Yes please, there was nothing on the article's list that particularly resonated with me but I really wish this was standard in every language.
cashews, almonds and other nuts are pretty high in fat. they're good in smaller amounts but probably not a good "staple" with weight loss in mind.

In the US (and Canada?) protein powder from costco is a good deal, basically any type works - whey is common but also pea-protein is common. i personally don't eat meat so typically get protein from rice/beans, soy, wheat gluten, dairy, etc
Not to toss flamebait, but… I don’t think police do run into gunfights.

I don't think they are using the session extension, as this project provides its own binary encoding, which wouldn't be needed if the session extension is used. It wouldn't affect random/date either, as the session extension doesn't replay transactions, but captures applied changes as changesets (so it would capture the results of random/date), which can then be applied to other nodes.
Learning to swim is about as natural as learning to crawl.

I’m not saying this with any disparaging intent. Why don’t you just go in a pool when you have the chance and try? If you don’t have access at all, then my apologies.
Using spectrum irresponsibly harms usage by others.

Installing equipment for everyone to use is the opposite. No one is harmed by such installations.
Do you have a source for this play? I'd be curious to read whatever book/person that came from.
This rings true for me. Blue collar parents, absolutely no way they'd let me get a trade. Couldn't even join the military - had to be university.
That's fair. In my case, I think our managers have historically done very little outside of collecting information for promotions, fielding questions from other teams about our roadmaps, and approving expenses.

That makes me think to some extent the problem is we have had little continuous feedback from these leaders or even much concentration on goals/expectations. That makes it really tough because you just have to keep outputting and believing it's enough until the end-of-cycle feedback comes in. I've managed to succeed in this environment anyways but it's certainly stressful.

I've spent some time this cycle trying to mention this to our new manager, so we will see how/if things change.

The real price isn't $20, it's the cost of everything you lose when the service shuts down
You can't renounce citizenship until you have citizenship and residency somewhere else, and that's easier said than done.

Also, renouncing US citizenship costs thousands of dollars for the renouncing fee.

Wonder if this piece by Linus about AVX512 is still relevant https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23809335
Site that takes HN posts and publishes them as their own content
That link goes to a post that takes content I submitted here just a bit ago and is republished without any attribution to HN, and in fact it even has a link to re-submit it here to HN, and I suppose attribute it themselves.
Ok I didn't know about this list. Feel like I should have known! I always though it was up to countries and top-level operators. I imagined something like .uk publishing somehow that .co.uk is a top level domain, for example.

I think the requirements to run a top level domain, like .lol itself are pretty onerous? But I wonder if it is easier to get your subdomain added to the public suffix list, and I wonder what legal guarantees are afforded to someone who registers such a domain.
I noticed that too. Almost no videos of him stopping. Even with a normal "fast walk" pace it can be a problem slowing yourself down on a sidewalk if someone unexpectedly turns or if you didn't see the pile a dog owner (or from a human in SF) didn't pick up in front of you until its too late.

It's also troubling that you have to "signal" the boots to turn into "lock mode" for stairs. Seems like potential for user error there as you have to slow down, then awkwardly turn your foot in just the right way in order to start your ascent on the stairs. To be fair it looks like you wont necessarily slip if you dont engage the "lock mode" but it also seems weird that a lock mode would even be necessary.
> 2.5x walking speed without extra effort

If we're normalising speeding around the city at 2.5x speed, can't we just start walking faster instead? Like, with our legs? It's free and no extra equipment required.

(Yes some people have mobility issues. I don't think they're the primary target market.)

Walking is really good for you, too.
Reverb is the result of latency, and in large spaces the audio signal to distant speakers is delayed to minimize dead spots due to wave interference.

Which is to say musical experience is complicated and hence live sound design is also complex in ways that aren’t casually obvious.

The rule of thumb is sound travels one foot per millisecond (30cm per millisecond). So at 30m, ten milliseconds latency wouldn’t change the spatial perception very much even without correction. Of course 90ms is plenty of time to correct for latency if you want to be spot on.

My wild ass guess is a microphone on the drone could be used to sync the remote speakers with the piano speakers to phase align the sources.

Basically ordinary audio signal processing succumbed to compute about twenty years ago.
I can imagine 10000 years ago, someone complaining about graffiti in the caves in much the same way as you are doing now.
I need an archiver for my playlists, majority of the videos I've watched over the years have vanished from playlists with ZERO information or title remaining, making it forever a mystery as to what they used to be.
Can somebody explain to me why Su-57 isn't a two-seater (i.e., wouldn't it be far more effective as two seater)?
Alas, he lived before the age of YouTube. Can you imagine…
Sorry, I mean inhibit-idle support from the GTK side, not from the Mutter side. As a client.
I wonder how hard it would be to put this in process to compete with DuckDB?
Finally, an internet connected piano.

I can't wait until I get prompted to install updates while playing, have to pay a subscription fee to use the sustain pedal, and have the instrument become non-functional 15 years after purchase once the manufacturer finds the service is no longer profitable and decommissions its server.
because .motorcycles is boring and .lol is fun... what that a real question?
>but that demand has been minimal so far.

I am mostly anti-crypto but I always thought the concept of Helium was cool. If the "price" was competitive with LTE-M and NB-IoT (I'm not sure if it was, maybe it is now?) what stopped people from using it?
What makes me upset is when kiosks and websites ask you to agree to terms and conditions, and while you’re reading them, the interface times out.

There’s zero intent from operators to allow their users to understand what they’re agreeing to. It’s all legalese written for their convenience.
This is my experience exactly but I was remote from work during covid, with a newborn in the other room and no one in the house was sleeping. Took awhile but things got better. Just in time, we have another on the way.
It is mostly caused by particulate matter in the air. Not so much pollution from California, though I'm sure a bit of it is. More likely to be dust and our own pollution.
Conditional on playing college ball, there is maybe 1 order of magnitude difference in terms of competition. If you play in college there's a 1.2% chance you play in the NBA. And probably a 10-15% chance of working as an archaeologist condition on getting a degree same as getting a tenure track professorship conditioned on getting a PhD in History.

One of the biggest differences though, is you figure out whether or not you're getting into the NBA at aged 20, after going to school on an athletic scholarship.

You figure out you're not going to get tenure at 32 after finishing up your 3rd post doc, with 250k in student loans.
How so? What would be the difference? Other than being unviable.
I've only scratched the surface of the avx512 instructions, but they are much more broad and useful. Masked gather, scatter, double precision exp and mantissa extraction, and floating point to integer conversions are all new and all proving useful to me.
To me even the very highest end digital pianos still sound digital, but they are close enough and the benefits of digital outweigh what you might sacrifice in sound for most people.

I've noticed there is also fierce debate between digital pianos that are based on sampled sounds versus modeled. I believe most Roland digitals are modeled with Fourier series, while all/most of their competitors are sampled (not sure about Nord). That said Pianoteq is a popular after market VST that will bring a very convincing top tier modeled sound to even a low end digital piano.
As far as behaviours can be wicked at all, fucking around with prostitutes and children is wicked.
i know this is tongue-in-cheek, but roland is not that kind of company
Have fun with the new piano :)
I really just want every language to support operator overloading.
> Yeah but that data can be used to make things better for you later.

Or, the more likely case, someone figures out how to de-anonymize it and it could be used to hurt me later. That seems much much more likely to me.
Perhaps you shouldn't speak so quickly and so snarkily about products you "briefly look at" because Plausible is also self-hosted.
I manually edited the URL back to apple, which (on a Mac) opens the Maps app.

Interestingly, the change comes from from Apple. `curl -v https://maps.apple.com/?q=Gary+Glitter` gives a redirect to maps.google.com. Presumably they do this when the don't recognize the browser as capable of starting the Maps app.
"as a source of entertainment, books can't compete with bars, chatting with friends, television, movies, sports, social media,"

This is awesome. Congratulations on the launch. So happy to see that you are going with phonics instead of whole word or other methods. Phonics is absolutely the correct approach.

I bought a pair when I worked in the SF Armory because it was such a long walk to the bathrooms. Used to get a lot of funny looks from the models.
We are actually adding another language soon! (for somewhat random reasons) - we hope eventually to expand much more.

And it really depends on how strict you want it - 'strict' is a bit subjective. What we cannot do yet, but want to, is put those controls in the hands of the caregiver.
I will shoot from the hip on this one. I don't have any sources directly at hand but across a lot of western countries the amount of new licenses has been declining for well over a decade. It is only a matter of time until the sales start to catch up to this.

Car ownership for a lot of people is now a necessity rather than a desire. It is becoming seen as a functional burden rather than a symbol of freedom. Why spend a sizable amount of your income feeding a 2 ton steel beast unless it is absolutely needed?
Thanks for that, I missed it in TFA. But ouch, that feels like an extreme design choice. What's the logic here to erasing the flash on a failed checksum, or requiring a checksum in the first place? Is there a non-obvious security threat?

Yup- It's a pretty settled debate now I think. There's a good podcast on it called 'Sold a story' that just came out. Thanks for the NYT link!
I'm not super in tune with the RISC-V scene, but if a person is working with RISC-V right now, are they also concerned with wireless?

I realize that the answer is in a way "yes." But, if you can only choose one, wouldn't someone working with RISC-V be looking at security over Wi-Fi?
Probably, but it still isn't even comparable to the amount of damage and wear done to a body through the trades. Its like comparing some guy who plays bar league baseball to a 1st string NFL player.
Wow it's pretty hardcore to think about killing bears with spears. I would've thought that trapping somehow would be less-risky but maybe a dozen people with spears/rocks is enough to regularly overcome a bear
The IAP cloud subscriptions and in-app surveillance spyware in the Roland iOS app seem to suggest otherwise:

In my experience it is the same at Google but not at all at Microsoft.

I think the specifics of each company’s performance review system have a lot to do with it. At google the level definitions are so prescriptive that it is like a checklist to get good ratings and promotions, and doesn’t leave much room for people to do good work in ways that are unique to them. At Microsoft you do not receive a formal rating, and the level definitions are very vague and mostly come down to just doing well at whatever your team needs at least at lower levels.

Right the fallow description pushed me towards agriculture was what you had in mind.

Vacant land if you can acquire suitable agreement over three or more years could have many minimal business activities.

I've been watching someone convert a former paddock into what I'd guess is a motorbike track with jumps. They've been slowly working at it for a couple of years.

With a wide area and plenty of room it'd also be ideal for a training area for those who wanted to start learning up on getting skills to operate different machinery. Even trucks and tipping so someone can get some experience. I got a fork lift ticket when I was back from dropping out of uni, from a guy who could certify fork lift driving tickets. All he had were a couple of forklifts (may have simply borrowed them for the weekend) and offering training while having an agreement with owners of the large garage to train on the weekends, less than 20 years later, he had expanded to many other machines (coal mines are in my area,) a number of training points, a large full time successful business.
Lots of people making open source web analytics recently, Plausible, Fathom, Umami, and now GoatCounter. I have one of these for my sites but I honestly don't really look at it, it's not critical really.

Now I was thinking of making an analytics solution for tracking site performance instead, like an uptime monitor mixed with tracking how long sites are taking to resolve, and from which areas of the world. As well, something like tracking user events too, like Mixpanel, but a lot easier to use rather than their enterprise solution. Is that something people would find useful?
What kind of strange conspiracy rabbit holes have you dug yourself into? Take a step back and get out asap. It's just a fun subdomain to have... do you _really_ expect this is some secret initiative to start new social platform to rival "twitter/parler/etc" full of only "neoliberals"? oof.
Where in the description did you infer this was in any way attempting to become "the ultimate fix for online discourse"?
There was an online service subscription I had several years back (not Twilio, but something somewhat similar) that I stopped needing. I forget if there either wasn't any way to this on their website or if it was just broken, but after repeatedly trying and failing, I ended up just disputing the charge the next time the monthly payment came up, and my bank stopped the transactions from that point on, so I forgot about it. A while later (probably around 6-12 months), I got an email from that company asking me to go back and tell my bank that the transactions were fine. Given that it had been so long and I only disputed the charge due to their website not giving me the ability to cancel through them, I didn't think it was worth trying to talk to someone at the bank to figure out how that would even work. It left an impression on me because it was the first time that I felt like I actually had any power in my relationship with a company as a customer rather than just having to hope that the company would chose to do right by me with nothing forcing them to.
I was so sick of using GA for my personal projects and found GC to use as a simpler approach. I LOVE this tool. It is so simple and easy to use and has everything I need for simple stuff.

Doing a 20 minute workout every morning. That and meditation / visualisation to set my intentions for the day. I notice if I do these two my discipline for dieting is much stronger.

Would love to do more cardio (1-2 hours per day) but it just doesn't fit the schedule atm.
Actually that would make sense. I usually eat much later 8-9pm and so that crash would come after the work day is done.
The field is like this because it’s populated by lazy and stupid people.

I'm fine with an array type that supports this, but not as the default. I've been bitten in the past by code that ran error-free while giving incorrect output due to this feature suddenly making the indexing valid. I'd prefer it to be opt-in somehow so that the default behavior for negatives is invalid, not silently wrong yet valid behavior.
Minimum is 40 minutes walking. Consider a dog if you can't find motivation to do it all by yourself.
