I've tried multiple times to use PyPy on real projects and it was totally unusable if you rely on stuff like pandas, sklearn, keras, fastapi, etc. I found similar issues with Numba as well. These things only work if you keep to a relatively small subset of Python and stick to "pure python" functions. Which basically no one does (that I can see) except in toy projects and tutorials. Improving cpython by 1% (without breaking compatibility, which python 3.10+ did a poor job of in my view) would do more for the world than making PyPy even faster.
ah, I see.

I think I'd take a different approach and send along an "offset map" index blob which maps (statically known in advance based on a schema that both client and server would need to agree to) field IDs to memory offsets&lengths into a standard JSON file.

Then you have a readable JSON, but also a fast way O(1) to access the fields in a zero-copy environment.

Done right the blob could even fit in an HTTP response header, so standard clients could use the msg as is while 'smart' clients could use the index map for optimized access.

But as I said would suffer from numeric values being text encoded. And actually 'compiling' the blob would be an extra step. Wouldn't have all the benefits of flatbuffers or capnproto, but could be an interesting compromise.

I'd be surprised if this isn't already being done somewhere.
Yeah, except that Russia wants raw natural resources from the Ukraine territories it wants to annex. They can kill all Ukrainians and destroy all of their cities and still be able to extract what they want.

Now do that in Taiwan. Are you going to mine semiconductors from under a rock? Do that while an army of Taiwan partisans keeps fighting for decades?
So maybe it would work with a red dwarf with much less gravity and brightness. As a bonus the star would last 10-1000 times longer.
That may be where it diverged. In my case at least, ebay paid me directly. Perhaps they just moved finance in house and tacked on previous paypal fees onto selling fees.
I don't even see any 1.5TB 12x128gb DDR4 ECC kits on Newegg.

The biggest one I see is this, which is only 50% cheaper than Apple's price per stick. Not 20x. Not even 2x.

https://www.newegg.com/nemix-ram-512gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/...

And if you go with a brand name kit, Apple's price is pretty close to Newegg.

That's not to say any of this matters. Apple sells a completed product, not a box of parts. If you want a box of parts, you're in the wrong place.
That is revenue/employee, not profit/employee.
Does this allow whitelisting as well as blacklisting? Chrome has offered both for a long time, and I remember being surprised to learn that FF didn't offer either. It's a welcome change!
To be completely fair an apples-to-apples comparison would be an all Intel (GPU included) laptop or one with an AMD GPU’d laptop as their drivers are baked into the kernel and are 1st-class supported. This, to me, is akin to the Apple top-down, wholly owned model. Even Intel MacBooks stopped shipping Nvidia GPUs years ago.

But… I get you. To have a really good experience you need to have a really supported setup and then everything works swimmingly. My work issued thinkpad is the AMD version of the P14s and it’s brilliant.

The Good, the Mad, and the Ugly
Or, rather than posting non-sense, you could learn about what "woke" usually means in this context, which I can quote for you [1]:

"shorthand for American Left ideas involving identity politics and social justice"

"By 2020, members of the political center and right wing in several Western countries were using the term woke, often in an ironic way, as an insult for various progressive or leftist movements and ideologies perceived as overzealous, performative, or insincere. In turn, some commentators came to consider it an offensive term with negative associations to those who promote political ideas involving identity and race."

Unless, of course, you believe that the term "general population" excludes the "political center and right wing in several Western countries" and only includes "the American Left".

That said, just to be clear: when I used the term "woke", I did not mean it in an insulting or pejorative way, only as a means to describe the ideology itself.

I'm going to grab one of the Jolla devices and give it a test drive next month. I think there's decent alternative out there where you can still maintain your privacy without having to step all the way down to a "dumb phone".

Definitely a key insight: every attempt to be less addicted to your smartphone will fail if you do not fill up that void of newly available time with something more productive, healthy, etc.

The good news is that you don't need to set a very high bar for a better use of this free time. Read a book. Go on a small walk around the block. Take care of your garden, if you have one. Do simple chores. Do nothing at all. Almost anything is better than smartphone usage.
How many more steps till we get WestWorld IRL?
> luxury item (and an expensive monthly service bill)

Before applying any subsidies for low income people, you can get a perfectly usable smartphone for under $40 and unlimited data cell service (slow but usable for basic tasks) for $10/month. An iPhone, with service, can be had for a total of under $50/month.

These aren't luxury items anymore.

The Arleigh Burkes were built from 1991 to today. The Flight I are getting close to retirement and Navy decided not to extend service life. But that means only handful will be retired before replacement class is are ready. If it was a problem, or the replacement class is delayed, then they can order more Flight III.
As others have mentioned, the default overflow behavior in Rust can be configured to panic. To explicitly wrap around on overflow in every configuration, you can use the newtype wrapper Wrapping, or use the wrapping_add(), wrapping_mul(), etc. methods on the basic integer types. There are also variations such as saturating_op(), checked_op(), and overflowing_op() to detect the overflow and handle it appropriately.
> In this way it is similar to the iPhone coming in and basically killing Nokia, Motorola and Blackberry. The iPhone targeted different values than the dominant "smartphones" of the day.

As much as the iPhone killed off those companies, it grew the market for smartphones more.

There is no significantly growing market for cars like there was for "handheld
internet-connected personal computers". Every EV sale is effectively 1 less ICE sale - a 1:1 replacement in the market. Whatever market growth potential exists is in the very price sensitive developing world (South Asia, Latin America, Africa, etc), where EVs will show up en-masse last.

Now that practically every company is selling EVs, Tesla only has its brand to differentiate it, which was at one time significant but perhaps less so lately.

As I see it, their only meteoric growth opportunity (by eating into competitors' market share) would be if they released a $20K, 250+ mile range, 5 seater EV in the very near future - like what the VW Beetle did in its generation.

But that's hard to achieve in an EV (especially from a luxury brand used to high margins), since the majority of the cost of an EV is still in the battery, and that cost doesn't scale down much with a lower price tag.

I think you are missing that the gravity comes from the centrifugal forces. Said gravity is for humans to be able to walk around, as well as keeping air and water from being lost to space.

So sure you could make a non-spinning ring that minimizes the tension, velocity, and centrifugal force, but it would not provide a large living area like the ringworld does.
Did you have to utter "M3" on the very same day that we finally have M2 MacBook Pros? </grin>

I am now worried about a possible upcoming "M3" announcement in the next week or so.

And I am only half-joking -- a while back I was funded and ready-to-purchase an M1 MacBook Pro and that same day the "M2" announcements hit.

As a result I could not get myself to pull-the-trigger on the M1 purchase.

Amazon to widely launch 'Buy with Prime'

I would never game on a 3M USB cable.
I did this for a friend once too, for a year and a half. My friend had been running backpackers, and lost the business (and their place to stay) fast and unexpectedly when the building it was in was sold to a hostile landlord. It paid off. He's back on his feet.

I see people like investments; in cases like this, I didn't want to profit in the classic sense, but I did want to see my friend succeed, and I knew my friend had it in him. All I needed to do was provide a roof over his head for a bit.

I'm sorry to hear you had a negative experience here. There are success stories out there though. In the end, its about taking the right risks for the right people.
How many motherboards of the time had lanes to handle 1.5Tb of memory, and maintain bandwidth to multiple (4) high refresh-rate hi-res monitors?

I do really think its overpriced, but I also wonder if the "I can do better" people have configured a system in ALL its glory: not just "lots of RAM" but "lots of RAM with ECC, and with good fast bandwidth, and with sensible independent paths to video/GPU and oneward to displays doing 8K, running a single composite desktop (when required) on all of them, with no tearing"

If in fact, this is just routine, sure: there's an APPLE tax.

If this is a modern-day equivalent of a 4-plate steenbeck edit suite, it's priced for its market: the people who by "Red" lenses. You can do the same job on a simpler device, sure.

Also: it grates cheese.

I don't know about that, but I know bitterly that chronic sleep deprivation basically deatroyed the "RAM" of my brain, now it's really difficult to concentrate and go through difficult problem without rest. So instead of gritting through step 1 to 10, I have to take a rest after step 3, then make sure that step 3 was property done, then take another rest after step 6, recheck 6, and so on.

I'd argue one of the edges smart people have is to have a large RAM. They can think through all 10 steps in one shot, maybe 20-30 mins, while people like me have to take triple that time, even a full day because something interrupts us in the middle.

Conclusion: don't f**ing get kid(s) unless you really want them, as air and water, and are willing to sacrifice cognitive ability.
> web devs completely disregard how they should layout their data

How should data be laid out?
Their institutional internal logic has been don't fuck with the international order for decades, which actually supports this analysis
I've attended many trainings like this. They always talk about correlational studies as if they're causal. "More diverse teams make more profitable companies!" But in reality it's just as likely to be reverse causality. Companies that are very profitable have enough resources to be trying non-mission-critical things like diversity.

I assume that if there were better evidence out there it would be presented in these trainings. The fact that this is all that is ever presented indicates that there is not. It also indicates that the trainers are either unaware of the difference between correlation and causality, or they simply don't care.

Yeah, I'd try to model the deprecation cost of the battery to some extent while tuning my magic numbers in the trading bot settings.

~1,500 cycles per $16k battery replacement. Shouldn't sell a full cycle for less than ~$15. Don't arbitrage a 1% point of battery life unless it yields at least $0.15. Might just set it at $0.20 per 1% for healthy margin/price-in hassle of battery replacement.
Most browsers can do this[1] (it is called "Do Not Track), but many websites will not use this information, because they want you to consent to them tracking you so they will just ask you in a pop up (Cookie Banner). While on the one hand this seems like companies trying to extract the most amount of money out of your website visit on the other hand this setting isn't on a website basis and you might want one website to track what you do while you don't want another to do so, which isn't possible with this setting so far. Furthermore a website might want to give you the option to choose between only necessary cookies, cookies that improve your user experience and tracking cookies arguing that the do not track request doesn't make it clear weather you only want the necessary cookies or also cookies improving your user experience that aren't strictly necessary but don't track you.

If they have been broken by weeks, the team working on it was fired, no replacement has been brought yet, and it's the one big interface with the people paying money to the company, then it's a good bet that management either doesn't care about money or can't fix the problem.
Radiologist.

It’s cool, it’s a nice study. The article definitely over hypes the “common cause of hypertension”. These lesions are rare. Most people with high blood pressure have it because of metabolic disease/chronic stress/lifestyle, and it can be managed with changes to diet exercise and meds.

It is true that doing adrenal vein sampling is hard and not always successful. Having a protocol that can non-invasively detect these lesions may save some people a procedure.
I remember last time a machine like this popped up on HN a commenter said machines like this are purpose built one-off to color grade[1] Hollywood blockbusters that have budgets well north of $100M.

Apparently, the answer is yes. When you have a hyper-hyper specific need, a machine like this really is worth it.

I agree with some other comments, just explain the bonus situation to your new employer. They can make you whole by bringing you in sooner and paying it to you themselves, or let you join after the bonus is paid. I've been on both sides of this, I waited hiring someone for a sales role as she wanted to collect a quarterly bonus at the place she was leaving, I though it was the sign of a good sales person! I also was offered a role when the hiring company agreed to match my anticipated bonus to bring me on sooner. Good luck!

Perhaps I overstated the poverty in HK. But my point was that many people there cannot afford to travel. They live paycheck to paycheck; they have very little in the way of savings. I know people in HK, including family. Most people in HK are not well-off.

When you add these to the people who are living in poverty, that doesn't leave for a lot of travelers.
