GaN has also had a big impact on the size and thermal wattage budgets/waste heat of a whole bunch of types of microwave and millimetre wave Tx power amplifiers, anywhere from 4 GHz to 120 GHz.

If you look at the current state of the art for a "money is no object" manpack size VSAT/SNG terminal for geostationary use in a random very hard to reach area, such as might be owned by CNN or the BBC, the GaN Tx RF chain BUC/SSPA is remarkably small now compared to ten, twelve, fourteen years ago.
I grew up in a 3rd world country, when I started working remote for a company abroad I used to get paid in USD, every-time I go to the bank to take my own hard earned money, I had to give the bank so many details and had to wait multiple days before I can withdraw my own money.

The easiest way to withdraw my money was to ask the bank to convert my USD in to my local currency, and if I do that I lose close to 6% of my salary.

If I wanted to withdraw my money as USD, the only time I was allowed to do it is if I provided the bank with a valid flight ticket to prove I was going out of the country, and even then, I could only withdraw less than 40% of my monthly salary this way. (the % changes everytime the central bank wanted)

Every time I see people hating on crypto all I see is someone who either bet the farm on a get rich quick scheme or someone who comes from a very privileged background who haven't had a part of pey-check stolen by banks.
From what I've seen, buying a house is easy (you can hire brokers/realtors to do the paperwork) but the biggest hurdle is your visa status. Owning property does not entitle you to stay in-country longer than 90 days. You'll need a local job or spouse in order to reside there.

Loans can also be difficult for foreigners to acquire, so prearrange financing or cash.
> And Hulu doesn't aggregate ESPN+ and Disney+ in a single pane.

My Hulu shows aggregated ESPN+ in the "Live TV" category (which does show up on the Home Hub as well). It's quite obvious to me because that and HBO (incidentally) are the only "Live TV" I pay for so all I see in the Live TV section at all are ESPN+ and HBO.

Disney+ aggregation isn't there in Hulu, but the opposite is definitely already happening: a bunch of Hulu shows are now aggregated in Disney+ for me. Though the border between "aggregated there" and "slowly moving there" is quite blurry as Disney does seem keen to move towards Disney+ as the final brand left standing and eventually killing the Hulu brand. This is already the case in most of the world (Star+ which was the Indian sub-continent Hulu equivalent that Disney also outright bought is a "hub" in Disney+ rather than the other way around, despite predating Disney+ by several years just like Hulu; incidentally Disney did integrate a Star+ hub into Hulu in the US if you were curious what some of that content looks like), so it does seem inevitable in the US eventually Hulu will be eaten by Disney+.

(The one weird twist to that being how protective Disney as a brand has been of their family friendly part of their brand image in the US and in their merger of Fox and Hulu they found it useful to treat the Hulu brand as "Disney After Dark" and avoid some of the "family friendly" issues in the first few months of Disney+ while they added parental controls and other family focused tools after the US launch date. Disney will get to unwind the concept that they need a "Disney After Dark" that their own PR created in the first place in order to eventually merge Hulu into that plus in Disney+.)
I perfectly understand not wanting to spend time on working around Safetynet, but in case you're not aware, I just want to point out that safetynet is pretty reliably broken (Google clearly doesn't use it for security. I'm pretty confident that it's 99% for passing audits, and 1% for shows). Current stats of the Safetynet workarounds is maybe 7 days of down time per year.

Also, my personal point of view of the matter is that apps that require Safetynet, 1. doesn't care about their users, 2. Do just-for-the-show security, and thus users would be better off not using them. I personally don't use any app that require it.
Getting the gold back is apparently as easy as heating up the amalgam to vaporize the mercury. Maybe too easy for the Nazi to do or maybe they left some mercury out as a decoy.

It was kind of remarkable, I disagreed with your initial statement that meritocracy is “propaganda” but almost everything that followed was something that I could’ve wrote.

It seems to me that de facto meritocracy largely does not exist because it can be gamed. This leads to insulting post-hoc justifications for hoarding wealth despite the fact that merit often has nothing to do with it. That ethos is absolutely propaganda.

Harvard would be more honest if they just auctioned seats to the highest bidder. At least that would have transparency and efficiency that their current process lacks.

I haven’t given up on the idea of meritocracy though. It’s certainly better than hereditary rule. The only solution I can see is to fix the measures of merit so that they’re harder to game.
Can’t make computer chips without PFAS, and many normal things would wear down so much faster we would spend a lot more energy/CO2 emissions replacing things faster.

PFAS have orders of magnitude differences in half lives, understanding which are bad and how to destroy them when needed is all that is required.
>Why can't it be the statistical compression and search of large datasets that it is?

"Because it would require a level of complexity and comprehension beyond current capabilities of statistical compression and search of large datasets."

Guess who came up with that answer. (spoiler, it was ChatGPT, I asked it to reply in a very concise and brief way.) But it's true. Search and compression don't have those capabilities, which is why Google feels so threatened by ChatGPT.
Sure, but it's a bit odd to direct focus at immigrants when it's many different market segments. If anything, immigrants are generally more willing to live poorer with traditional gender roles, having children in spite of the extractive economic conditions. It's the native born who put it off waiting for the right time.
In a previous life, I used to do some fairly heavy drinking with Preben Madsen, who co-founded and was the CEO of PolyData, the Danish company where Anders Heglsberg developed PolyPascal that Borland OEM'ed as Turbo Pascal. According to himself, Preben was the one who convinced Anders Heglsberg to dump Algol for Pascal.

They were doing really well with the royalties from Borland, and the highlight of Preben's story is when he went to a Porsche dealer to trade his BMW for a 928 (as I recall). The dealer would not offer him a good enough trade-in price for the BMW, until Preben suggested that he would just buy two Porsches instead of one. I am sure today's crypto-bros can tell even more impressive stories, but for mid-80s Denmark that one was actually quite above average.

Unfortunately, the money that PolyData made on Turbo Pascal was all wasted trying to enter the ERP business with a system named Albatross that even IBM viewed as a serious competitor to their IBM Navigator system at one point. However, at years' end reporting, a bug in Albatross would cause all the financial records to get chewed up, which made the system very hard to sell after that. The Albatross disaster caused PolyData to eventually go under, and Heglsberg left PolyData to go work for Borland in the US.

After PolyData, Preben started a small PC games distribution company called PolyMedia, and, as I was a (very young man) in the games business in the mid 90s myself, I would always bump into him in London at the bi-annual ECTS computer trade show, where we would go out for dinner and get very drunk, and he would share his many stories of past fame & fortune.
Depends, if it’s pgn that’s just plaintext.

SCID uses 1 byte per move which is close to optimal (it splits it into 2^4 for piece and 2^4 for direction, with some edge cases).

SCID vs PC is a fantastic tool for chess players, I maintain a massive database of master games using it.
Yes. Paypal exists because fiat currencies can't be moved without an intermediary or in paper form.

Unless you have your own private plane, the airplane would just as much take off without you as Google would still be running servers whether you used it or not.

I'm sorry for your situation, but you also have to realize, things are partly your fault. You mention you could be a bouncer at a bar, but you would have to go to the gym to develop enough muscle. And possibly start using chemicals to alter your bone density and muscle mass. In your situation, I'd say you have to go "all in" on something, whatever it is. If you just half ass it and complain that the world is against you, you will not go anywhere. That's just how it is.

If you're Yvon Chouinard, whose goal is to keep Patagonia going in perpetuity as a funding vehicle for environmental activism, what else could you do?

For the record: he divided up the shares into voting and non-voting. He "donated" the dividend-earning shares into a 501c4 foundation whose mission is to invest in grass-roots environmental activism, and "donated" the voting-power shares into a separate trust, whose objectives are to ensure that Patagonia continues on the path he gave as an example for the previous decades and to hold the 501c4 accountable.

The boards of these organizations are composed of the people whom he most trusts to fulfill his vision, a group of people that includes his children.

Knowing the full context of their lives, it's hard to see it as anything other than one of the more simple solutions to a complicated problem.

The sub-headline sums it up pretty well: "The EV maker’s sudden move pressures rivals, crimps used-Tesla values"

The window for startup entrants is closing, and closes a bit faster now. It was always monumentally hard to get into making vehicles. You can't overstate the accomplishment of turning Tesla into a viable car maker. I expect some of them to fold this year. Maybe Rivian survives because they make a unique product for one customer.

Ford and GN are probably in good shape if they continue to execute well. Ford might have to roll back their F150 Lightning price increases a bit, but that product has no direct competition.

What's ridiculous is that $TSLA is up on the news of price cuts that cut margins. That's the core issue. At best it means Tesla overshot previous price increases.

I love maps. I have a map of the Pacific Crest Trail (which I got at REI) on the wall of my living room - it's beautiful to look at (still need to frame it but it's on the list!), informative (cleverly shows elevation along the trail in a column on the left), and leads to interesting conversations with guests.

We also have metal "night" city maps (from displate.com) of cities my wife and I have lived in, which make wall decorations (i.e, arranged in a pattern of 8) .

> I know PLA is considered 'safe'

But the article says:

> The toxicity tests showed that PLA particles were more toxic than the ABS particles on a per-particle comparison, but because the printers emitted so much more of the ABS - it’s the ABS emissions that end up being more of the concern

which is not very reassuring either way.
I've used Prisma before, and I will note that there pace of feature development seemed mind numbingly slow for a company as large as they were. Entirely possible I'm missing a lot of things, but it was just a big disappointment overall.
I have a question and anecdote.

I’ve been on teams in the past that had to deal with rails apps (legacy code usually) and I found ruby to be really difficult to understand. There are so many ways to do one thing, and with the rails addition there are now so many conventions to follow. Then when those conventions don’t work anymore, and the code base goes off the rails (no pun intended) and the out of the box conventions no longer make sense.

Granted most of my experience is writing Go, followed by dart, swift, and typescript. I have a hard time navigating codebase of a dynamic language and it’s a pita to have to rely on tests (not everyone writes good tests).

I use Go for all my backend tasks and it is not only fast performance, but really easy to be productive in because there is usually one way to do things and the std lib is amazing.

Where does rails fit in? Like I can build an entire production ready backend service that can scale in like 2 days with Go that is easy to deploy and maintain, and not need to bring in any big Go framework or libs besides like uuid, managed sdk, or db driver.

Why would someone choose rails over Go or even node JS with express and a few middlewares? (In 2023)
True. I tend to stay away from gems that try to integrate into multiple parts of your app to provide some sort of comprehensive solution. The kinds of gems I recommend are: 1) libraries (you call into them when you need them) 2) mounted apps on a url, isolated from the rest of your app 3) generators (a nice example: https://github.com/lazaronixon/authentication-zero).

Nix is pretty usable for both desktops and headless servers. Personally, I even use it on macOS without much trouble.

My system looks like any other install of Ventura, but all of my configuration, ranging from the terminal and VS Code to macOS-specific system preferences and Safari, is done declaratively in Nix [1]. The overwhelming majority of my installed software also comes from Nix packages, with some exceptions for stuff that is not packaged yet (e.g., I have Podman Desktop, the macOS ZFS port, Lulu, yubikey-manager-qt installed through Homebrew -- fortunately nix-darwin [2] also just lets me have an set of brews/casks in my config).

It was been a bit of a nightmare at first since the error messages are kind of horrific, and there can be a lack of good examples/docs on flakes. But I think the weekend worth of time I invested was worth it since I no longer need to rely on hacky shellscripts or remember to manually configure anything.

Anything that has some effect on the number of children one has, and their probability to survive until they can have their own children, would be a natural selection process. Nobody actually has to die, or even to remain childless.
You describe it as "living without fulfillment", but if the average internet-connect white-collar Western person stopped all consumption of video entertainment, news and non goal-direct use of the web and the smartphone, then after adjustment period of a month or so, I suspect that the remaining pleasures in their lives would become more fulfilling with the result that their average level of fulfillment would be about the same as it currently is.

I think that that is just how the human motivational system works: there is a set point, and if for example I get hit by a car and lose the use of my legs, my life gets much suckier for a while, but a month or so after I have settled in to being paralyzed (i.e., I have gained enough experience with it to have a practical understanding or knowledge-grounded-in-lived-experience of all the significant new constraints on my life) I will be about as happy or as miserable as I am now.

Would you agree with my theory of the set point?

If so, what I am missing? I don't see anything wrong or irrational about the manner of living described in the original comment that you disagreed with, namely,

Considering that every action taken by these companies was illegal, I don't know what you mean by "the law that enables companies to abuse". I'm actually deeply in favor of immigration reform in the US, but human trafficking is not created by the law, it is blatantly illegal. The illegality doesn't even begin in this case in the article with the US, but with the coyotes in India that charged these men $20k USD for them to come to the US to work, when in fact legally it should be the other way around, the visa sponsoring entity cannot charge you for relocation costs, and may pay for them (but is not required to do so).
