I’m not missing the point, I disagree with it.

Like, who is “we”? In any situation where one group has structural advantages over another, there are going to be people who are very much not on board with merging the groups. If your plan to equalize everyone is just “pretend the groups don’t exist”, it will fail, because you’re simply ignoring a status quo that others are actively working to preserve.
It didn’t help that the Zune was sold in a fecal shade of brown. Apparently the product designers never watched Reservoir Dogs.
I didn’t say it was totally fine, I said it was expected. Is the violence in ghettos and prisons the result of bad people or a stressful environment?

Othering these people and calling them psychos is a convenient way to excuse yourself. We are all human and we are all capable of evil. It is the environment that dictates our behavior.
OpenVINO (which uses oneapi underneath) works great with Stable Diffusion. Its just like 2 changed lines in PyTorch (pushing to/from the "xpu"), and performance is reportedly good.

And the drivers for ARM graphics are not really made for running desktop games and apps. Intel is at least part of the way there.
I think op has a point. Almost every woman I know, my wife included, expresses some level of disgust at the idea of an adult man playing video games. I don't think I know many women who are alright with a man who plays video games, let alone a man who spends 1 hour or more on it per day.

A few friends of my wife REALLY complain about men playing video games (dating prospects and current partners). It's a double standard, because they themselves use social media or consume media, but that's just the way it is.
That's simple. Things like this happen when people act without principles. It is like patching software without taking one step back to understand the underlying issues.

The underlying issue with airtags is supposed to be that people can use them to track other people. Well, rather than try to take a step back and understand what the problem is, Apple decided to just jump in and start figuring out some heuristics that will prevent most of the tracking by sacrificing the least usability.

The result is the product becomes unusable while tracking issue isn't solved either.

IMO tracking issue isn't really Apple's problem. A person that wants to track another person has a huge number of tools at their disposal. Go to any large online shopping platform like amazon or aliexpress and you can find hundreds if not thousands tracking tools. Some much better than airtags (cheaper and not retroactively traceable by Apple). Tracking should be solved legally and by educating people that tracking people without their permission is illegal and they potentially can face criminal charges, regardless of the method they use to track another person.

Imagine car makers reacted to first car accidents by putting pillows around the cars rather than figuring out we need legal moves (road rules, drivers licenses, car safety standards, infrastructure to separate flows of traffic, etc.)

There is a class of items that need to be restricted or nerfed because they are either inherently dangerous or they are of not much use except for committing crime or similar.

But there are also things that are very useful AND at the same time can be used to commit crimes.

I am not even talking about guns. Think kitchen knives. Knives are useful. Yes, we can live without them but having good sharp knives at home enhances our lives and makes it much easier to make good food.

Notice, knife makers do not make kitchen knives so that they are dull. They do not make them so short that you can't reach another persons heart. Instead, we know what the knives are for and we know that what you can't do is murder another person with it. Or murder them in any other way, regardless of the tool used.
Well there will be crabs as well because of carcinisation
Likewise, history will tell you we'll periodically see obnoxious hacker news comments claiming the M-series can’t possibly be better than what the x86 world has to offer.

We’ve been reading for decades that ISAs don’t matter that much anymore, and yet everything that needs good battery life is ARM. Intel was the undisputed manufacturing kind for 40 years or so. Things change.
"similar salary"? Be realistic – a random startup is not going to give total comp similar to Amazon... you need to find another remote-friendly FAANG to get that, and I don't know if any of them are even hiring right now, let alone hiring full-remote
Define scale. Microdrives were quite common at the time. I used one with a PCMCIA reader before the first iPod and a couple years later I had an MP3 player and a PDA with one. I recall being giddy at the fact I could keep a text copy of wikipedia in my pocket.
After an extended period of unemployment, it's easy to get mired in the present. One exercise I did when starting a job search was a SCAR excercise. SCAR stands for situation, consequence, action, result. Look back on your ENTIRE career, from day 1, and find situations you faced where you solved a problem and benefitted the company in the process. You'll find experience where you used your skills to bring value to the company, which helps with those open-ended "tell me about a time when you..." questions, and reframe your mindset from "I've been out of work" to "I have a lot to offer".
It was a decent MidJourney effort but the one earring is placed in a manner that is anatomically incorrect.

Watch on RTL tonight — I’ll be showing off “Rembrandt taking a selfie” which I made in 5 minutes. Unlikely to hang in any museum, but about the same level of art.
Whole Foods and OneMedical represent a strategy of locking up wealthy households into the broader Amazon ecosystem. It’s iMessage, but for your bad knee.

Buying Whole Foods was a way to buy a freezer and small warehouse with the grocery budget of the top ~3% of US Households attached. OneMedical is a way to do the same. I expect they’ll try to roll up Summit or another group next.
Those definitions generally exclude works by Duchamp and many other modern artists which do not fit into the narrow traditional definitions of art. (There are some overbroad traditional definitions, I don't think you're talking about those.)

Just to give some wider social context--the backlash against modern art is something of a right-wing talking point, and it has been for nearly a hundred years if not longer, for complicated reasons that would fill an entire book. These days I see those definitions the most in those Twitter accounts with ancient roman/greek sculpture as their profile pictures, which post about the decline of society and how modern art is bad, classical art is good.

I like modern art. You may not like it, but it seems weird and distasteful to reach for a definition of "art" that excludes things you don't like.
Sometimes the holes don't get filled. Mammoths in northern steppes are one example, and getting them back would actually be pretty helpful.

Fair, but I’ve found I basically never use other people’s devices, just the last seen location to see where I left something. The only cases where there something was tracking movement was in the case where my wallet was stolen and they were smart enough to remove the credit-card shaped tile in it and bin it immediately in a different place; I imagine my much more conspicuous airtag on my partner’s keys would share the same fate.
If you get killed, all your sorrows go away. And as weaklings get more likely killed, the species evolves in a positive way.

So it is a win-win-win strategy.
Can we stop the hyperboling? The amount of multitasking we can do on consumer computers today is nowhere close what is what possible only 10 years ago.

About text editors... you can use blazing fast editors if you want like cli-base ones, notepad++ or sublimetext... If devs are not using those to code anymore there may be reasons, right?
It's difficult because any minute amount of wind will affect the final results, and you don't have the full wind profile over the entire aircraft to compensate for it. Easier and safer to track what's on board and calculate the a/c performance based on that + margins.
No particular reason it should be necessary, it’s just a step that is very easy to do for most of the legitimate use cases and maybe a little harder to do for some of the nefarious use cases. Having that step adds some differential friction, a little behavioral nudge in the direction of ethical AirTag use.
Because that way other people could know who is the owner of the tag.
Exactly true. Race, money, and caste all vanish from existence if nobody continues to use the concepts.
2dumb2destroy, the Worlds Dumbest AI
Introducing 2dumb2destroy. An AI trained on all the dumbest stuff on the internet (Homer Simpson quotes, Pauly Shore screenplays, that one bodybuilding forum where they argued about how many days there were in the week, etc).
It's the first AI you don't have to fear will steal your job or overthrow humanity.
That caste reservation system you mentioned is fundementally flawed. For example, it will favor children of low caste individual who already benefitted from the system and is at economically very priviledged position over children of a high caste individual who are economically disadvantaged.
That's how it's done from the smallest Cessna to the largest Boeing and Airbus aircraft. Nothing unique about Alaska's setup.
You understand how a Valentine’s Day card is different from a response to a mass shooting in which three people were murdered, right?
You'd be hard pressed to derive a model for the coarse structure of the universe from the Standard Model, considering the Standard Model can't describe gravity. Maybe this is part of the problem..
So many red flags there. Wearing airpods while driving, and then also holding your phone while driving?

People like you make me nervous when I drive.
It's unlikely these resurrected species will inhabit their ancestral habitats but rather, like Jurassic Park, satisfy human curiosity and entertainment for nature itself does not care one way or the other.

Just think, eventually and extinct species zoo garden, not unlike JP, except more tame species... maybe. It would be a destination attraction for sure.
> I think the GP's point was that "fluid ounce" is a measure of volume, not mass or weight. If you're measuring a liquid whose density is different from water, a fluid ounce won't weigh anywhere near an ounce.

Yes, and equally so, if you are measuring a substance other than water, the milliliter will have a different mass than a gram.
They are more dumb tho,
scripts and dialogues are so much simple. They rarely give you the feeling of once a lifetime seeing experience. Most of them have too much CGI and sometimes not even looking rea at all.
What Python badly needs is Lua-like sandboxing/allowlisting.

You get an interpreter with access to 0 functions by default and can add stuff on top.

Maybe Python already has it, I'm not aware of it.
Your consent to be used in research is basically baked into anything you’ve whipsaw signed at a doctor’s office.
This piece has all of the human mysteries of a stock photo in a shampoo commercial.
2 issues in fact, one is TSMC being the only one capable of making these amazing chips and the second is Apple buying their entire supply. Now if any of that counts as a monopoly I don't think so
Interesting to hear this, not having tried Tile myself. It does seem like Apple’s big competitive advantage (along with access to low level device APIs they don’t offer to developers).
The soldiers who go abroad and commit murder and rape are also taking their civilization with them. Civilization is vital for our species’ continued success but it requires specific conditions to maintain. Each of us is capable of atrocious things.
I'd agree but I think they'll view any penalties as the cost of doing business. If they can find a way to reduce costs or raise profits by more than the penalty amount then it they'll absolutely do it.
Did anyone check if they also used ChatGPT to write the apology?
What value does the email have if it's written by an AI? I assume its point was to reaffirm the community's values following a horrible incident. To help people feel that those in authority are doing all they can to make students safe. To express genuine and heartfelt sympathy for victims and empathy for the rest of the student body. Having an AI write it undermines all that. It signals the administration couldn't be arsed to spend an hour writing an email and that the sentiments expressed in it are not genuine.
This is what we use it for. All of our internal admin/devops dashboards are built using blazor server. Employees on the east coast have the best experience, but no one in Texas seems to complain (server is in Virginia). We don't have any employees west of Austin, so latency works out fairly well for us.
A lot of great modern movies have pacing similar to those older ones you don't like. It's not that they "leveled up" into some new form and obsoleted what came before—the other sorts of pacing remain entirely valid and in heavy use.
I can imagine de-extinction and other genetic engineering techniques being useful to increase the amount of diversity in many habitats, which will theoretically give them a better chance of weathering huge environmental changes (as natural selection has a broader base of genes to work against). Since we need the biosphere to continue existing in a pretty narrow range of configurations in order to keep us alive (for example, we probably don't have the technology yet to sustain our civilization in the face of the whole planet becoming a desert, or not providing enough oxygen to breathe without artificial assistance), this might be a useful technique.
Could it be that there is no gravity, and what we perceive as gravity is the pressure from the expanding universe?
Mastodon Advanced Search is Here
That's an excellent point. There are many parallels between criticisms of AI art that call it "just typing in a prompt" and calling photography "just aiming a camera". Does the fact that anybody can point their phone and create an image subtract from the "art-ness" of a professional photographer?

Hey all! I put a ton of time and effort into researching this article and making sense of it all.

I hope you learn something from it.

I'd love to know what you think about this question, where my reasoning doesn't make sense, and any other feedback you might have.
Even more true for Nokia: people bought Nokia phones (3210, 3310, etc.) because of Snake!
My understanding is that's more or less what Microsoft was looking at in their Midori operating system. They weren't explicitly looking to get rid of the CPU's protection rings, but ran everything ring 0 and relied on their .NET verification for protection.
Ask HN: What are your biggest pains integrating and building APIs?
Hello!

I'd love to get some more insights on your experience with this topic.

Do you integrate 3rd party APIs in your product?

Did you build your own private or public API?

What pains are you running into integrating or building these APIs?
Rich people spend money on a fancy boat, nobody gives a damn. Rich people spend their money on some charity or philanthropic endeavor, "Shame! You should spend that money on THIS charity instead!"
Cool idea! I would use something like this to discover AI-related Python starter apps and guides to integrate AI into my projects.

I built a free Django and React starter repo for https://learndjangoreact.com, and can share some feedback from that perspective:

1) I’m hesitant to post it because I don’t want to create a new account or connect my GitHub to promote a free repo.

2) I think Google is good enough for anyone looking for a Django and React starter app, especially since I already have a site for it. GitHub search is pretty good too.

3) I built my starter app mostly for myself to build new ideas faster, and I already moved on to a new idea (https://mailgrid.app) — so any effort spent on this feels like energy taken from that, etc.

4) I think new developers should pick whatever stack that inspires them, and I don’t expect my starter app to appeal to a wide audience.

Hope that helps!
Both the M1 and 5800U run around 15W and are already clocked for efficiency. The M1 Max is their higher clocked less efficient offering.
If that were the case why are we letting bureaucrats write these?
I had a startup that made games in the pay up front model (with variants, like having a free episode and then selling more episodes, or demo + paid version, etc...)

It just doesn't work, people don't want to buy stuff when on mobile, they just don't. The price made no difference in sales either, could be high, low, 99c, whatever, people just ignore your game and get only the free versions.

On Android this is even worse than iOS, my startup could had SOME sales on iOS, on Android we had millions of downloads and literally zero sales.
You jumped in in support of a comment that said Arm is ‘legacy’ tech. You said they don’t ‘even have a viable server core’. They are ‘haemorrhaging’ staff. Softbank have ‘ruined’ them.

Sounds more apocalyptic than exaggerated tbh.

I still don’t know why you think this is necessary.
> I think shows it made a big difference

No, it doesn't. It shows that something made a big difference, but that thing absolutely does not have to be the amount of storage.
As I understand it, in Houston Texas you can tell who works for Schlumberger because all the employees get their auto insurance from that company and they are required to back in to parking spots
The Social Capital Atlas
Why does it seem crazy to you?

Here's what likely happened -- they built the entire system from the ground-up based on a single-user because integrating with iCloud family wasn't part of the MVP.

By the time someone got around to asking about it, they realized that their data model was so thoroughly fucked it would take several weeks of risky migrations in order to add multi-user support.

So stakeholders are punting on it left and right. The things are selling, so is multi-user support really that important? It's an "edge case".
That's a global issue with Linux. There are people having problems with Linux sleep/suspend on a wide variety of makes of laptops, include Apple's. But not everybody is having a problem with every make of laptop which means it's either a distribution issue, user error, or some combination of the two.
That did strike me too. Setting out into 100F with less than a (US) gallon of water, but a selection of knives ..

Although if he was 50 miles away from the trail he was planning on, I'm not sure how much he was really relying on the phone either.

It does smell to me more of something I see a lot "outdoors" that isn't uniquely American though - the idea that you just need more kit to solve problems. Knowing how to use it is unimportant, planning ahead is unimportant, being more prepared simply means buying more Stuff.
Amazon over private equity is simple.

1. The numbers on Amazon's quarterly reports are huge. They are playing in the big leagues.

2. Everyone with money remembers when they were just a book store and the dotcom bubble burst. The narrative that they can go into a market and dominate it in a few years is a strong one everyone has a lot of belief in.

3. They are one of the leaders in using technology to upgrade traditional business lines. Every industry still experiences Fear of Missing Out on the latest technology change. Imagine how great of a position Sears Catalog would have been in if they could have held their strength for another five or ten years. They had brand name recognition, supplier relationships, warehousing, distribution, and physical locations for returns.

4. When a tech company enters a market there is a higher level of risk accepted than private equity. The private equity firms usually pick more sure bets than this.
What about Genshin Impact? That delivers AAA performance on mobile.
The rust community seem to be leading the fightback on this but I think it'll be about 5 years before there's a big switch over. If I owned a popular electron app, I would definitely be thinking about starting to write a Rust version or migrating to Tauri because if you're not then somebody will be. Once that Rust version hits feature parity with your core functionality people will end up jumping ship for the faster, shinier version, just like people jumped ship from Atom to VSCode. Big Electron hitters like the aforementioned VSCode seem to be banking on people switching over to cloud which I'm not sure I see the majority doing. I find the UX of using VSCode in the browser not that great.

I'm already in the minority because I do all my work in Sublime Text so I might be completely wrong about all this, but this is how I suspect it will play out.
Whole Foods is absolute TRASH after Amazon bought it. The food used to be good and now it's absolute crap, less options, utter rubbish no better than keyfood. At least in NYC anyway. (multiple locations)
How old are you?

I’ve found many men also severely underrate how physically attractive they are. I’ve had male models tell me they’re average looking, guys who are 6ft+ say they’re average height, and guys who literally have girls asking them out saying they’re nothing special.

You might think you know how to talk to women but it might just be a halo effect. It’s more often that than anything else. I’ve seen many men go through the exact same dialogue and have wildly different results because one guy is physically attractive and the other isn’t.

There’s a good example of someone I see in person regularly. Guy is a bit of a doofus but he’s tall as hell and has a jawline. Women are constantly asking for his number and interacting with him all the time. Yet, the women who have talked to him for more than ten minutes are like, “yeah he’s terrible. So awkward, unfunny, and the dancing - holy cow is it bad!” Literally he sells so well on his physicality but then he can’t deliver with personality. Women give him more chances than they’ll ever give any of his shorter peers.

I was pretty blown away when he told me about how he gets endless matches and dates from online because - again - dude is a total doofus. You couldn’t get a much worse person socially and yet he’s swimming in options.

Personality is overrated these days, imo.

Protecting existing species is a different goal though.

It's always true that if you have different goals you'd spend resources differently.
I don't believe anyone could sincerely have thought this was a good idea. Maybe this was a petulant act from a dean that didn't think they should have to respond to every tragedy?
In retrospect it sucked.

But at the time, iPod + iTunes + Mac was a better combo than anything else available on the market.
Human societies are coming to value and protect biodiversity. Extending your argument this is just another change in the habitat, one for which native species may be better adapted. Judging by the rules on what you're allowed to bring in to the country, Australia now appears to take invasive species very seriously.
It's not THE Dean, it's some deans – Vanderbilt seems to have many deans, and these were (minor) deans of the office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
Fiduciary duty isn't even real. It's just some bullshit pushed by management when they want an excuse for being ruthless.
