Same.

But I used to have a walking commute, which I also miss. Certainly I wouldn't miss a commute longer than 30 minutes. And I'd probably miss it less if it were in an office park somewhere, rather than a city I could walk to lunch at various places.

But yeah, I have a remote job because that's the job I have that I'm well-suited for that was available. (And sure, ability to work from one 1 or 2 days a week or as needed would certainly be convenient regardless). But I don't actually prefer working remotely, and also think there are real losses to quality of collaborative work, as well as quality of life. I know this is heretical to say these days in these circles.
Both sides changed the rules concerning judicial appointments. In both cases this was understood to be a change in actual Senate rules, not a one time override. As demonstrated by the fact that there were many appointments under the new rules without additional votes.

I think any research project, when it gets successful enough, and complex enough, we stop seeing the future potential, and are annoyed we're not getting what we want from it.

Machine Learning research isn't "for us." Let the researchers do what they do, and toil away in boring rooms, and eventually, like the internet slowly did, it will be all around us and will be useful.

Maybe I'm off base, but requiring employees to pay for mandatory business trips out of pocket seems insane to me. Is that even legal? It's a camouflaged pay cut, from one point of view (probably actually worse when you consider taxes).

I don’t consider threatening speech a force, I’m opposed to it because it threatens force. You can argue that’s an exception to my principle but it’s not far out of line. I don’t try to ban other forms of speech, however much they hurt your feelings, because they don’t threaten force.

Eh, I think it’s somewhat of a big deal because (to stick with your analogy), just like football, it can be all consuming if left unchecked. I’d argue it’s because the anti-Apple zealots are much louder, but even if one disagrees, the result is the same: the comment thread for pretty much every HN post even tangentially involving Apple becomes a platform war.

Like you, I prefer Cupertino’s way of doing things and would like to have measured conversations about the same without the BS diatribes from the haters. Impossible to do around here and has been for years.

That’s not quite true - the parliamentary Tory and Labour parties gave away the right to select the leader to their members. Hence we got Truss who MPs didn’t vote for but members did.
Dogs killed an estimated 30 000 people in 2022. There are only about 5000 tigers left in the wild.

But the examples are not the point.

The point is that things that are relatively harmless but common and handled carelessly (dogs, cars and hydro) easily cause more deaths than something that is very, very dangerous but rare and handled carefully (tigers, guns and nuclear).

That's when governments should step in and invest in alternatives. The TSMC quasi-monopoly is any country national security risk, and that it is irresponsible for most western nations to let the industry be run by a single foreign player. If I'm not wrong, TSMC captures by itself 60% of the world's semiconductor market?
Cars and planes have significantly different impacts on the engine.

https://www.flyingmag.com/aircraft-do-car-engines-make-good-...

> Car engines are designed to provide quick bursts of relatively high power output for acceleration, and then only modest power output for steady-state cruising. It’s unusual for an auto engine to operate anywhere near its redline rpm or max-rated power output. Airplanes, on the other hand, usually take off and climb near 100 percent power output, followed by steady-state cruise often at 75 percent power. Aircraft engines are designed to sustain this punishment reliably over a typical 2,000-hour service life. Try running your car’s engine at or near redline rpm all the time and see what happens. Of course, we don’t know what will happen, and in an airplane we can’t pull over to the side of the road when it does.

If you came from a nation that never gets snow. You practice in a simulated environment with the bobsled, go to the olympics and participate, did you compete?

Competing doesn't mean top of field. It might just mean making enough to eek out a living.
Corporations all over the country have figured out that there's some fat to skim off the top, and give to the execs and investment banks, and they're all doing it at the same time so that they can't get singled out for criticism in the WSJ.

SIEM/SOAR – Red team bypass
> The false marketing claim that Rust somehow invented it is absolutely infuriating.

This is the second time I've seen someone say this in the last week or so, but I've never seen this claim in the wild, and certainly not by Rust's core team or organization. It's also not a secret that Rust's memory management is heavily influenced by Cyclone. Can you show an example of someone making this claim?

This was my experience when I was let go in Mar 2020 (not from any place as prominent as Meta, however). The network of people you have worked with and know has been by far the best way I've found to get a job. Even when you're senior, cold applications are a low-chance bet.

Our existing computing platforms are very specific and very limited. Without knowledge of that specific design and the accompanying limitations, how could you pre-craft a non-interactive "exploit" that could be executed by such a system? I do think that it becomes more possible if we have AGI-like systems doing detection and analysis, but we do not. In addition, any universal exploit against AGI systems would probably have to be universal enough to also affect human intelligence.

It's a convenient backup, and can easily be sufficient for normal use.

My friend can drive to another friend's house in the British countryside and plug an almost-empty Tesla into the ordinary socket in the garage. After a weekend hiking etc, with little use of the car, it is full or close enough.

That's something he can rely on in the UK/Ireland (13A@240V=3120W), something he couldn't rely on in North America (15A@120V=1800W), and the rest of Europe is somewhere in-between.

(Does a typical German house have higher-rated sockets in the garage?)
Sure, there are all kinds of people with all sorts of ideas about what retirement will be like. And from my observations, more often than not, two people with different ideas about retirement will get married to each other.

Different ideas about retirement—such as retiring with different amounts of security, different standards of living, different amounts of money donated to charity, different locations, downsizing or not downsizing the house, living in the countryside or the city, traveling a lot or a little, etc.

My impression as someone who’s not retired is that you are signing up for a new relationship with your partner once you retire, and it’s hard to know what that new relationship will be like.

No, this refers to what and how they are permitted to trade, and how the wholesale market is regulated - the rules are baroque in the extreme, and were last reviewed 20 years ago.

The intent was good - it was supposed to ensure stability and certainty of supply, and by using the highest price for the cheapest source (gas, at the time) they guaranteed a stable price and supply of energy. It was also intended to prevent arbitrage and profiteering.

The outcome is still somewhat true - except the price is sky-high, and stably sky-high for at least the next few Qs.
> I don’t see the sense when the government tries to break up a monopoly like Google for being too good at selling online ads

The problem is that Google isn't "too good" at selling online ads, they're just the most profitable because their monopoly makes it impossible for better competitors to beat them. That means the world is stuck with Google's mediocre/shitty service even though consumers/the market doesn't want it. Innovation stops happening, quality of life drops, the economy suffers, etc.

Apple's big lead in chips right now seems like a great thing, but if the government weren't so shit at regulating competition, we could've had breakthroughs like this a decade ago. Instead innovation is (predictably) moving at a glacial pace.

The free market only works when there is competition, so since our economy is based on the free market, it makes sense to write laws that protect it. Monopolies directly contradict with the basic operation of the free market, which is why they're bad.

It doesn't matter if it's a life or death situation. Things don't have to be dangerous to your health to be illegal.
You say that like the sequence described has not been common since the nineties.

Assuming you knew that, why is now different?

And if you didn’t know that, there’s your answer.
You can add PoE (Power over Ethernet) to the Pi 4 or Pi 3B+ pretty cheaply (10-15 dollar hat), and avoid the USB power supply altogether. Not strictly necessary, but makes the wiring so much simpler/cleaner as just one single ethernet cable doing power and data, and you can expand into other neat PoE solutions. My Pi cluster is powered by my ethernet switch alone.

It makes wiring a UPS into the system really easy too - just have backup power on the ethernet switch, the downstream Pis are taken care of. I'd love if the Pi 5 just has PoE out of the box personally, I run all my Pi projects this way now.
My insulin pumps take any insulin I fill it with. I’ve never heard of pumps that only take a specifically manufactured vial. Which one are you referring to?

Apple is moving to wireless instead of cables so who cares when it's only used for charging? I can use my iPhone as a webcam, my iPods Max for audio, and two Macbooks can be placed next to each other to share one keyboard and move browser sessions between them. All wireless. I can even use the phone for internet connectivity while using the phone as a webcam for the macbooks. Zero cables!

I mean sure it would be slightly nicer to have my iPhone and iPods use the same USB-C charging port but I wouldn't choose Android and give up all of convenience of 'just works' wireless interop with all my devices.
The argument that Russia would've taken out it's own pipeline is ludicrous. It's like a store owner blowing up his own store front to punish shop thieves, or something. It doens't make sense.

The UK is at latitude too high to benefit very much from solar energy. It is not mountainous enough to benefit from hydroelectricity. Nor is there much scope for geothermal.

So we have gas, wind and nuclear, and that's it.

In the government's infinite wisdom they decided to place a moratorium on on-shore wind generation for stupid NIMBY reasons. Fortunately we have plenty of offshore wind capacity, but when the wind isn't blowing, all we have is gas turbines plus whatever scraps of nuclear France is willing to throw us.
The Pixel 2 had a launch price of $649 vs the iPhoneX at $999, so ~35% more. That's not really a fair comparison, I imagine if you compare to a similarly priced android phone released at the same time, it'd be a closer result.

Where apple does do well is supporting devices for much longer with software and security updates. So running older android phones is prob not a good ideas from a security perspective.
>Android phones can do everything iPhones can plus more. You can debate whether or not it's more rough around the edges but they just simply do more.

More but worse. I don't want it to be a really bad space heater or a really bad flood light, I want it doing a few things really well.

>No emulators, no NFC pairing, no auto-sorting your app pages alphabetically, worse notifications, no grabbing that file off a USB C drive, etc.

The number of people that care about this stuff is a rounding error. I can't even remember the last time I saw a USB drive let alone needed to get something off of it on my phone.
We do use Teams and Slack, Teams for scheduled meetings and Slack for everything else, just because Slack's scheduling is non-existent while something great comes out of the box from Teams (and yes, also because we get it "for free" through O365, and wouldn't be paying for Zoom). We wouldn't have to deal with Teams if Slack upped their game.
They have unlimited cash and buy capacity in advance.

Also, in the old days when they weren’t the juggernaut they are today, they always were good and minimizing SKUs and economy of scale. In 2005, the #1 part on state contracts were iMacs, even though Apple market share was like 3%.

That level of control and planning means they know what they need and can adjust. Overages in Apple Watch CPUs are subsidizing the HomePod, etc. In the case of the iPhone, they put an overpowered chip in there because why not.
Any ICE car only has in addition 2-3 oil changes in that 20,000 miles maintenance cycle. Spark plugs are 100k miles.

Your car doesn't have an engine mount, but it has a motor mount that could fail. You have already admitted to coolant, which implies it could leak and it has a pump that could fail.

Most people who complain about how bad EVs are seem to be comparing a new EV to a very old ICE, or memories of their parent's generation which wasn't as good as modern ones. New ICEs are reliable and have been for a few decades.
I find it freeing to know that no one really knows what they are doing. Looking into startup world from academia, it seemed like these people really were thoughtful and strategic in how they operated.

After getting into a couple very well funded startups, and seeing how the sausage is made, you realize that no one knows what they are doing. It's not that they're stupid, just that business is hard and the environment is always changing. Sure there might be some "master of the universe" types, but you can create a good business solving the most immediate and pressing problems.
I personally don't know what will happen, but I figure that type of test is easy to do in a lab environment.
So much depends on the specific APIs, of course, and how many versions of Windows you are expecting to support, and what your seek patterns and locking expectations/behavior are. (In my experience, it has been misunderstandings of the Windows file lock model/ACL lookups that seem more often the problem than directory size, but obviously everyone's benchmarks are different. File locks are super "slow", especially if you are not opting out of locks you don't need.)

I'm not suggesting that architecting with lots of small files in a single folder is yet the best architecture on Windows, just that for Maildir specifically on Windows it is among the least of the problems.

Your mistake is to assume that you (being there 5 year) is doing your work well and over the expectations, becoming an important piece to your team. Important enough that your manager wants to secure you as part of the team. Maybe you are just average. Regardless of being 2, 5 or 10 years there.

Yes, these engines have other uses. But there is an enormous market of yachts, tugs, etc. smaller than what is considered to be a "ship" and bigger than any automotive engine could power. I argued only with the assertion about "automotive engines". It was true when I was a kid that most engines I was around on commercial boats were special versions of automotive engines. It has not been true in my experience for a couple decades.
> But even allowing for that challenge, and that the OSB has some genuinely good intentions, the proposed legislation is still remarkably poor.

The part where these articles always claim a horrific bill has some genuinely good intentions - it's truly obnoxiously weasely.

No it does not have genuinely good intentions. It's a fraud wrapped inside a con wrapped inside a gigantic theft of human liberty and privacy.

Just because someone feeds you sugar so that the poison they're giving you tastes better, it does not mean the intentions are good.
