> Very neat to watch, I'd be curious to hear under what conditions it's worse than a quadcopter, perhaps stability or how quick it can turn.

Well, a quadcopter can fly with one busted motor/prop, this thing probably can't.

Winged flight is definitely for superior distance and loiter times.
It also seems like oftentimes (not in this specific instance but elsewhere) people are more focused on promoting their own side projects.

Speaking of side projects, I recently built my own side project builder at just-kidding.org ;)
If they omitted the word “forever”, it might seem like they are overturning an existing law or voting against an imminent threat to remove cash.
Julia seems to be a great potential replacement for Python for scientific software.
> You could write about common bad industry practices without implying that kodah is participating in those practices.

I literally did that: "It's well known" "The standard advice software engineers give to each other". Is anonymous "kodah" well known? No. Do software engineers give each other standard advice about getting hired by kodah? No. Also, I talked about "companies" plural, not kodah's company singular.

The only one who insinuated about kodah, and about me, is you. You ought to read the guidelines yourself with respect to my comment and your own reply.

The intended implication of my previous comment was that the behavior of software engineers in our industry is driven largely by how companies are run, by their management practices, how their hiring works, how their promotions work, etc. The engineers themselves are not really in the driver's seat, they're in the passenger's seats, and the incentives for current and potential employees are often perverse.
I'm sure it's going in that direction but to what extent we'll reach that point remains to be seen. Note that people lose phones and have to go without them for a while (again, probably more for poor people than others), not to mention even remembering and finding the time to charge them constantly, so it's not as simple as giving everyone a phone. Bear in mind there are lots of other reasons to keep cash; I was just addressing the fee idea.
As a manager you’ll waste your reports time and have them take the blame for missing dates. Where do you work?
The article talks only about nominal wage increases. It also has this gem:

> Due to the transient nature of pandemic inflation...

Real wages, overall, are decreasing: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/realer.nr0.htm

> Real average hourly earnings for all employees decreased 0.2 percent from December to January,
seasonally adjusted

> Real average hourly earnings decreased 1.8 percent, seasonally adjusted, from January 2022 to January
2023
If you subscribe to the paid version you can use the slower and perhaps better "legacy" model that was available a few times everyday until a few weeks ago.
"Peyton added that even though the update to the DynamicSource software had been tested over an extended period, the bug was missed because it only presented when many aircraft at the same time were using the system."

Now that's strange. Anyone have more details? Why should there be any connection between the calculations for different aircraft?

You keep saying "the Galois Field" as if that was a thing. It's GCM. The components of GCM are CTR mode and the GMAC authentication code, which is based on GHASH. If you're afraid of Galois fields, you don't get to use AES at all! Nobody should be implementing any of these primitives themselves, very much including CBC, which, as you saw downthread, left both you and the author of this project with an insecure cryptosystem.

Vulnerabilities in CBC systems were for a long time during the 2000s the most common crypto vulnerabilities on the Internet. There are more things that go wrong with CBC mode than just forgetting to authenticate it!
how did you know :)
Microsoft’s new AI demo for Minecraft
Please don't be insulting like that, it's against HN guidelines, which you've broken two of (the other is insinuating someone hasn't read the article).

I actually have extensive knowledge of ergonomics, which is why I'm asking. There are zero clues in the article, so I'd love an explanation.

Because just to be clear -- haptic buttons activated by pressure are just as easily located by touch and require the same amount of force in the same direction. So what is the ergonomic difference?

Yes, I definitely admit the possibility of non-human persons. I even admit the possibility of a computer who is a person. I just don't think ChatGPT is there yet.
Revolut has already of few million users in Switzerland. It looks like swiss citizens and foreign immigrants being taken for a ride in fees by the swiss banks are now fed up and have alternatives...
I’m right there with you. Turns out talented people tend to be really interesting people to talk to. My favorite moments over my career were in person, often late at night when we were solving a hard problem. There is something about working on difficult challenges together and the bonds that form from it.
> Unfortunately, Google has made many decisions about the design of its new platform without taking into account the wishes and concerns of extension developers and, in the end, their own users. As a result, ad blocking extensions will lose some of their functionality.

Basically the same thing that happened to Firefox extensions when they abandoned the entire old ecosystem and switched to Chrome's webextension. And now that they're stuck with that choice they're happy about mitigating even more damage to add-ons caused by it. This is not so much a win as a holding action after a bad choice.
I stopped believing in the well-intentions of NVIDIA a long time ago. Mind you, I didn't stop buying their products. But, they repeat the same shitty stuff all the time. I get why they do it, I get why it works, it's just annoying that people defend it as if it is altruistically motivated (not accusing you of this in particular, but in general).

And, as I said, AMD didn't, and still doesn't do a great job in the compute department. And, NVIDIA spent a lot of money developing good solutions with CUDA, their proprietary technology, cannot be anything but a good thing, right?

Invest money to "help" universities. Lock core software to your proprietary solutions. Jack up prices.

If they only did it in this instance, I'd perhaps give them the benefit of the doubt. But, off the top of my head:

- cuda
- phys-x
- gsync
- Gameworks in general
- rtx
- dlss

There is really nothing uniquely special about any of these technologies, other than being (mostly) software solutions tied to NVIDIa hardware, and being pushed heavily onto both developers and researchers.

It's the same playbook as "give MatLab/<Any AutoDesk Product> for free to students". These good deeds are not altruistic, they are investments in market capture.

The express purpose of the @nogc attribute is to enforce that code under it's influence doesn't use the GC.

I don’t see how those are at all in conflict. Not many people are unemployed, so employers are having a hard time filling low paying positions. The first bullet is about supply (labor force) while the second is about demand (employers).
I fear the day when I realize I can only be aroused by pictures of artificia-ladies with 7.5 or more fingers on each hand and an ever-changing amount of nipples.
This is misleading work because they chose such an unrepresentative toy model.

They essentially say that in python most of the time is spent doing python work, while in go, most of the time is spent in the math calculations. That’s only true because so little calculation happens in this toy model. Scale it up to a realistic model, and python vs go should become a rounding error.

I also take issue with the conflation of sustainability and speed.
The roots may be biological, but we rise above our biology every day. That is the essence of the liberal project - we protect the weak instead of leave them behind. Democracy, a system of justice, these things are unnatural. They exist to prevent us from degenerating into a Hobbesian state of nature where might makes right.

The inability of our society to protect victims and the weak when they happen to be male is one of the strongest signs that the left wing is no longer actually liberal.

You essentially have N different hashes and require at least N - M (M < N) matches.
I find that amusing because the people I've worked with who understood their job the least were also the type to constantly shill sites like leetcode.

Obsessed with how they stack up compared to others... Perhaps coming from a place of insecurity.
Fabricating the past does not become okay just because some relatives agree.
Pagecrypt does the same thing, but with the Web Crypto API. More (including a sample repo) at https://render.com/blog/static-site-auth-pagecrypt.
I’m not the OP, and I’m a radiographer. Big things are happening with image processing in radiology. ML/Deep Learning or whatever the marketing people call it is what is being done behind the scenes in Siemens ‘Deep Resolve’ for MR systems.

It’s utterly transformed what we do. It adds signal in an initial processing stage in the k-space domain (I’d estimate 25%-30%) then reconstructs the image. Then it doubles the resolution (or does it quadruple?) with double the pixels in the x direction, double in the y.

It does this based on a training dataset of paired images, one high resolution, one low resolution.

Images are now obtained quicker and are higher resolution than ever. Imaging protocols have extra sequences as time constraints are reduced. Patients can stay still for the short scans we are doing. Not ever scan benefited the same way, and some sequences don’t have the tech yet.

The images are fantastic. It’s a larger change than the move to high field magnets (1.5T to 3T) and the hype about it isn’t anywhere near enough.

I’m lucky to be able to compare imaging with and without the technology applied, to be able to mess about with it and find the rough edges (they are unexpected and a little counter intuitive) but I’d be trying to avoid systems without it (or an equivalent) as a system user or a patient. The future is very very bright.
In the 90s we had EuronewsTV broadcasted over the air for free in Greece. It was fairly ok-ish. I had the chance to interact with some reporters of Euronews in 2017 and it was fairly ok but keep in mind that it was about a news story amongst hundreds within a day.

Small Homelab K8s Cluster on Proxmox VE Guide
Amazing guide I used to setup my own homelab. Great way of learning K3s. Would love to hear about other setups you're using.

Other resources that go great with this guide:

I personally think this could be useful in the future to enable new accessibility features for games, eg. voice control.
This is why explicit error handling is so critical. Being forced to handle the timeout error would make such a bug obvious.
Natural disasters. In the early 90s a blizzard knocked out power on the US eastern seaboard for weeks in some areas. Two years ago Texas's grid was compromised for nearly a week during the ice storm, and even cell service was down.

I'm sure there are other examples. How long was power out in New Orleans after Katrina? Puerto Rico after Maria?
Nietszche was also a philologist first and foremost and wrote extensively on the topic, albeit in his own irascible style rather than the dry and paternal register of Russell and similar.

Which is no accident in either case, as their rhetorical and philosophical heritage trace precisely to the pre-Socratic and Socratic traditions that they identify with.
If you actually turn it off (as in GC.disable()) they won't know either way, it's just a memory allocator to them.
Cycling is ubiquitous in the Netherlands though. Even in small towns. The only place where it's not convenient is if you're living out in the fields in say Flevoland.
That's not the issue. The issue is adding network input into local tools whose threat models never considered having network input.
