> Because all our evidence is that it is continuous.

No, we haven't really tested this to any appreciable degree, and existing tests rule out only certain types of discrete models just like they rule out certain continuous models. Our models are continuous because continuous models are what we've been using for centuries. I'm not sure why anyone still believes that science is a purely evidence-driven endeavour. History has clearly shown it's subject to fads, celebrity and inertia.

> Unless you have evidence of time and space being non-continuous?

General relativity produces unphysical nonsense like singularities, which is a form of internal inconsistency similar to Norton's dome. This isn't evidence that spacetime is discrete so much as that our continuous model is incomplete, but it seems quite clear that a discrete analogue of GR would not suffer from this problem.

Furthermore, some new approaches to gravity are discrete theories, like loop quantum gravity, so clearly some physicists are already thinking along these lines.

Yah which is exactly why this response is not going to work.

The issue right now with "full employment" is incentive based -- after covid large numbers of people opted out of the jobs available to them because they finally recognized how much they have been being screwed over by the employer classes. The social contract is bad -- people are unhappy with raw deals.

I think the only thing that could actually work right now will require actually addressing the structural social wealth imbalances.

Too much employment --> introduce mandatory hour caps and increase mandatory vacation allowances and decrease retirement ages.

Too much overhead per employee -- get healthcare the hell out of the employment contract ...

It's insane to me that when we saw relative cross class wage growth for the first time in decades -- the immediate conclusion of all the decision makers had been that the labour market is over-exuberant and needs to be tamped down...

There's a German forum where they've been crowdsourcing this info for a few years[0]. According to their spreadsheet[1] there's a few systems with 12th gen Intel cpus with <15W system power, and it looks like those are using bigger psus so they might be able to be lowered still with something like a Pico PSU. There are lots of low power LGA 1151 setups so as you say things may be getting worse (or the contributors aren't using new computers yet). I think newer pcie generations have higher power consumption, but I don't know if that's true when you put in a lower generation device into a pcie 5 motherboard for example, or if it affects idle power or just peak. It would be nice if this info were more readily available.

Which university did Taylor Swift go to?

Taylor Swift did not attend college. However, she attended the Nashville School of Arts and Belmont University in Tennessee for a short period of time.

How about Robbie Williams?

Robbie Williams did not attend college either. He attended the St Margaret's Church of England Primary School in Stoke-on-Trent, but left at age 16 to pursue a career in music.

...

Elvis Presley did not attend college. Michael Jackson attended the Professional Children's School in New York City and later enrolled at the Los Angeles Music Academy. Ariana Grande attended North Broward Preparatory School in Florida before pursuing her music career.
....
Of the singers you mentioned, only Michael Jackson stayed in education past the age of 18. He attended the Professional Children's School in New York City and later enrolled at the Los Angeles Music Academy.

It's not really getting across the point that those are very rare individuals and attempting to emulate their career path is going to fail 99 times out of 100.
While we're mentioning past claims, you once claimed donating to @elonjet would make people complicit in kidnapping/murder (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33996612).
Exactly. A lot of developers focus on lack-of-vulnerabilities as the essential aspect of security, when, in reality, for corporate IT, the essential aspect is visibility. It doesn't matter how secure a black-box app purports to be, the mere fact that it's a black box that IT has no visibility into it will (justifiably, IMO) lead IT to treat it as insecure.

A somewhat related aside/question for the crowd- I've been hosting my own website for a little while with no issues, but I also don't really have any media stuff up on there. I added a wiki recently and have really enjoyed working on it. But, right now, that also has no media stuff on it, and I think I would like it to, but I also feel like this is one of those "haha you thought this would be easy? fuck you' things.

I'm not worried about it from a normal usage standpoint. The website isn't interactive, I plan on being the only person with edit privileges on the wiki, for example. But I feel like based on things I've read, mostly on HN over the years, that this is opening a...different sort of box of worms than I already have open. Easier DDOS? Abuse of my image hosting, killing my monthly bandwidth allotment? I really don't want to have to set up a CDN just to host a wiki that is averaging less than one not-me viewer per month...

Am I paranoid, or just uninformed?

Also the article completely fails to even mention the troubling ethical issues with such a drug if it works.
I cannot comment on whether “everyone” is oblivious but yes, this is still the case - frame pointer based unwinding sometimes skips the caller when the IP is sampled before the callee sets up a frame.

This is also common for samples in leaf functions.

compiler & tool chain folks tend to think (quite justifiably imo) that this and similar stuff is fine because dwarf allows reconstructing everything perfectly. The problem is just that the user experience of dwarf-based unwinding is poor, because the only implemented method in Linux is sampling the contents of the stack and doing the unwind in post processing.

Why do you feel it necessary to deflect criticisms instead of addressing them directly?
The purported rigging of elections in the US does not justify the eroding of democratic institutions in India [0]. Claims of increasing evangelism and strictness among Christians and Muslims doesn’t justify the large number of public lynchings of minorities [1] and politically motivated prosecutions of media outlets perceived to be critical of the BJP or their affiliated organizations.

Several organizations have recognized this deterioration of Democratic institutions and adjusted their ratings accordingly [0]. I understand you may think this is a conspiracy against India, but be assured it is not. Western countries have a deep seated interest in preventing unfettered nationalism and fascism from causing a widespread conflagration.

The term fascism is not used flippantly [2]. The RSS was modeled on Mussolini’s National Fascist Party. The RSS and the currently ruling BJP have a symbiotic relationship. Perhaps you were referring to the RSS when you say the BJP is not in the drivers seat.

You are well spoken and obviously care for India. I urge you to take a more critical look at what is happening in India. The international community is not trying to perpetuate colonialism or hold India to a unique standard. They want a vibrant trading partner that upholds human rights and rule of law. They also do not want to see a genocide occur in a country that is the worlds largest democracy.

I'm living in the center of Munich, and they've built out a lot of curb-side chargers over the last years here.

My personal hope is that advances in technology and grid upgrades will eventually lead to every single lamp post being a charge socket - a lot of the cars here belong to residents and stay parked for days, so they can get away with 3.6 kW charging just fine.

In the end, however, the solution likely will be a massive expansion of public transport, to a point where almost no one but people with disabilities and tradespeople will have their own cars.
There was distillation going on in England in the middle ages, but probably to make medicine rather than booze [1]:

https://distillatio.wordpress.com/2015/06/12/distillation-in...

As far as i know, the first widely-drunk spirit in England was brandy, imported from France by Dutch traders (hence the name, brandewijn = "burnt wine"). Gin and whisky both took off when England got into ones of its regular wars with France, and brandy became embarrassing to import.

My best guess at why England was late to start making its own spirits is that we have a crummy climate but good trade links to the continent, so it was cheaper to import brandy than to make whisky or apple brandy. Whereas Ireland and Scotland have slightly crummier climates but far worse trade links, so domestic distillation made sense there.

[1] Which are different things - remember, "people say alcohol's a drug, it's not a drug, it's a drink".
It's possible, yes. Empires rise. Empires fall. Toyota will adapt and 'missed the boat' implies that that's it; they're done. They're absolutely not done. They were also miles ahead of others when they introduced the Prius in the 90s. It's not as if they haven't been engineering and mass-producing electric powertrains for a long time. One strong reason they have not missed the boat? No one yet producing an EV right now even comes within arms-reach of Toyota's quality. People forget that it is, in fact, Toyota's legendary quality+reliability+value that makes it a brand people adore and come back to again, and again, and again. When they make an EV (and they will, eventually) that it is as good as the quality Toyota has built its foundation on, they will absolutely CRUSH it.
You are correct. The FED is not targeting tech workers as implied above; they do not have a granular "toolkit" at their disposal. Although workers in growth industries will be harder hit due to valuations being based on future cash flows.
