If you need to replace your AC anyhow it probably makes sense to go for a heat pump unit vs just AC. But it probably doesn't make sense to throw away an otherwise fine AC to upgrade. I say this as a Houstonian myself.
It turns out that Dahl was a real antisemite, to me that is more of an issue: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/dec/06/roald-dahl-fam...

I guess when we get demand we will also get microcontrollers that integrate more and more of it. Still it feels like replacing outdated solution with ill-fitting one.

>Finally, when you need more than 8 bytes, everything falls into a heap. You have to start putting in sequence numbers (which take up parts of your 8 byte packets), holding things for reassembly, etc. Once you reach that point, you might as well just use Ethernet.

But on other side ethernet overhead on just sensors is huge. The minimum payload is 46 bytes (in 64 byte frame), so sending say just a 2 byte temperature sensor data is 32x of overhead vs CANs 4x (IIRC 8 byte packet for 2 byte value. For 8 byte CAN only have 1.75x overhead while ethernet frame still has 8x overhead.

So in sensor-filled device like car you'd be getting far lower real throughput than the 10Mbit/s. And the sensors will want to broadcast to whoever listens anyway so a good part of the frame is wasted. Some kind of ethernet light where say:

* frames can be as short as few bytes
* destination address can be skipped and receiving devices treat it as broadcast

would double or triple the throughtput.

> CAN MACs are not really more expensive than Ethernet MACs, and Ethernet MACs get WAY more testing.

Average car have dozens, I'm pretty sure CAN MACs are tested well enough lmao, what a non-argument
Am I missing something? It's my understanding that chromium based browsers also allow listening to requests same as before, they merely aren't allowed to block them anymore.
You have to be careful when saying "silver" solder.

For soft solder, the eutectic is SnAg3.5Cu0.9, which melts at 217C, 34C higher than the 63/37 eutectic Sn/Pb. There's a lot of low cost lead-free solder out there which is essentially pure tin[0], with silver and copper content below 0.5 percent each. That melts even higher, at about 230C, and tends to be not eutectic, i.e. it has a pasty range.

I think you are talking about the eutectic alloys with about 3% silver. Good stuff, but the higher temperatures involved make it harder to use without damaging the components.

For repairing 20th century electronics and for general DIY electronics use, 63/37 is great, and flows better than 60/40 - just wash your hands afterwards.

For repairing 21st century electronics, use lead-free for compatibility.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin-silver-copper

Also, to many people, saying "silver solder" means a silver-copper high temperature brazing alloy, which is a whole different thing. Better to say "tin-silver solder" or "tin-silver".

> Commerce clause says congress has the right to regulate commerce.

The _Federal_ govt can regulate _interstate_ commerce. The way they enforce minimum alcohol age and speed limits is by threatening to withhold highway subsidies.

The way States have the authority is the 10th Amendment + there's not a Constitutional right to ingest whatever you want (actually seems like a core freedom, but let's not get sidetracked). Generally this creates a system where States are free to restrict "rights" the Constitution is silent on.

> Little know fact, states only have the right to require insurance if a vehicle is being used for commerce. Personal use transportation does not legally require DMV registration or insurance

This is super wrong. Here's Indiana's statute [0]. Nothing about commercial use only. States have total authority here as long as their constitutions permit it.

I think that would be more like Roald Dahl doing it himself. This is like Disney doing those changes to Star Wars, and you could just imagine that outrage.

I think it is sad that people think we must change stories to reflect 'modern contemporary thought.' Let stories reflect the world they were written in. We can have our discussions around them as to what they mean.
Nothing except if people are predisposed to think it’s associated with women then that’s how they’ll read it. This tells you more about the censors’ minds being in the gutter than anything else.
This is also a pretty normal rate for retail. If you want to sell your alpaca mittens at the tchotchke shop on Main Street they’re also going to want a wholesale price that’s 50% of retail.
Yeah a flight joystick with a HAT control for sliding/strafing and throttle lever actually worked well in my experience. I'm sure keyboard and mouse would ultimately be faster, but it was fun feeling like you were a fighter pilot with lasers.

Same. I didn't miss an email confirmation or anything. They're very aware of me in the "queue". Contacting support on a monthly basis gets the same answer. I have to wait for some arbitrary deadline on "current pre-orders" and they are unsure about when that'll happen, but are definitely sure it WILL happen... eventually.

And by that point you'll not be a newbie anymore and know you've outgrown your chinesium. But for most tasks, it is plenty enough. It's amazing how much you can do with so little.

> You need good scope and analyser EXACTLY because you are a newb.

I highly disagree. You need decent enough ones, not good ones. Want to decode that uart? Wanna know why that adafruit I²C sensor is not responding? Why this SPI thing sends garbled data? The logic analyzer will be the biggest help when working with digital electronics, which is what most people get started with.
I guess it's legal, and you don't mess with legal. Or maybe they have a guy who verifies it without involving anyone else.
+1 for getting a LA for digital work. I started with a Saleae clone (dirt cheap and works), and loved it so much that I bought a Logic 8. They have a 50% discount for hobbyists which brought it down to an affordable luxury for me.

I would assume you have an AC unit as well as a gas furnace — but the AC unit is super close to just being a heat pump, so it’s worth considering replacing your AC unit with a heat pump at some point and turning off the gas furnace to see how the costs differ. Most likely for fairly long sections of the year in Texas you would easily heat your house with a heat pump at a low power usage since it’s not too cold out.
Do get into classical music. As others have noted, yes interpretations can vary, but don’t worry about that initially. It’s relatively subtle. All you need to keep track of ultimately, initially, is the name of the piece and the composer.
If anything that's a statement about coroutines, not closures. And even then, not every coroutine has problems. I don't see a logical implication from that to a GC requirement.
Where did you find that price? All the schools I took a look at started at for infant/toddler care started at 1800/month and went up to 3k/month. This is including independent schools (for example https://www.utcs.org/enroll) and quality home based programs.
The changes all look fine to me, and many of them probably make me more likely to continue reading Dahl books to my kid.

I mean, none of the old language would stop me in my tracks but it adds up. There's plenty of options and I'm always picking the ones that I find the best, in many cases having a bunch of outdated language will cause me to pick something else next time.
yeah, I am passionate and will work hard but I don't want to work more than 8 hours and am not particularly hot on starting at 9 either.

Apparently things are slowly changing and a new generation of companies are appearing that are run by younger people who aren't enamored with the 80's american corporate dream, but it's a slow thing.
Maybe I'm crazy, but I think 4k for partial credit on only the lyrics of a song that had no significant radio play from Ariana Grande - that's more than fair isn't it?
Yeah this is what you do - "restart in offline mode". I have my kids do this and we can all play whenever.
I agree; the issue here is more than there's a Monkey Christ level of literary competence that went into these changes (and also what seems like much, much too much ambition about what to change).
> I'll bet you didn't think twice about the integrity of doing that.

"You" however is "readers on HN" and they very very likely did think about the integrity.

Your point stands, of course, that the sleight of hand/speech is an attempt to pull a fast on one readers in general.

At this point I think it's clear to say this is not correct.

In fact the capital class lobbied hard for China being admitted to the WTO pushed hardest by Kissinger, NAFTA [1] and other legislation and restructuring to make offshoring easier in order to suppress both wages and labor power.

This was Ross Perot's entire platform [2]:

“You implement that NAFTA, the Mexican trade agreement, where they pay people a dollar an hour, have no health care, no retirement, no pollution controls,” Perot said during the second presidential debate in October 1992, “and you’re going to hear a giant sucking sound of jobs being pulled out of this country.”"

Screeching is usually associated with high pitched sounds and that is associated with women, to the point men making loud high pitched noises usually gets called "screamed like little girl".

I guess babies also count for screeching.
Thanks. I learned something. Even if passwords are a weak form of security, they add an extra Ayer that would make it much more difficult for an attacker. They don’t have to be the only layer of security, and would still be good as an extra layer on top of hardware keys and/or OS keychains. Very interesting.
Do we have any transparency (i.e. a single doc) about your site guidelines? Which ones are downgraded?

I used a joystick as well. The big advantage is I could control all 6DOF simultaneously without moving my fingers. Players who couldn't do that were definitely at a disadvantage when things got really chaotic as the automatic roll feature didn't work particularly well. You could do a 6D circle strafe vs them and tuck into a blind spot where they couldn't get back on aim to you without adjusting roll with a little pause/hitch in their movement.

I used the hat to switch weapons and such.

My friend used roughly the same idea with a trackball, which was probably even better.
Apple fires hundreds of contract workers, previously assured jobs were safe
COO Toby Enqkvist is stationed in Chicago.

What? The COO is not going to be doing or overseeing the inspection.

And only the most rigorous inspections are done in O'Hare facility
where all the best equipments are and under watchful eyes of executives.

What? United Tech Ops is based out of SFO with a 2.9 million square foot facility. Yeah, there are like thirty other Tech Ops facilities, but the SFO facility is the largest and is obviously well prepared to carry out whatever inspection especially as the plane was already there.

So I am guessing it went to ORD.

Yes, it flew to Chicago in revenue service. There is zero chance that United deferred an inspection until after a subsequent revenue flight. Not even Southwest is that bad (and they're the record holder for maintenance related fines from the FAA). From what I've read 2.5 hours is about enough time to do an inspection if no damage is found initially.
Unfortunately this is a case and proof of the classic kickback scheme that occurs in many corporate companies. Also common in many bureaucratic companies, countries. If you don't think $60M/yr is real, you are in a hell of a seat when you see the billing/accounting that goes in corporates and governments.
Let me guess the narrative: communist requirement to control thought meant that only free thinking liberal democracies could come up with generative AI?

Yet we have seen 'guardrails' on the democracy produced ChatGPT such that well known and established historical figures (ironically Mao being one of those) are constrained on how they are outputted from prompts. 'Open and free' isn't reason ChatGPT was made first in America - it was because Altman pushed the button on it, ahead of competitors too wary of the risk
I agree with this perspective. There are certainly more step changes to come in the theoretical domain (arbitrary tensor 2 tensor of any dimensionality / variable input output size?), but the application space seems largely known, and now just requires lots and lots of implementation in the real word - which isn’t necessarily going to be from wildly successful software platforms but more from applied AI practitioners building niche tools everywhere
Obama was also quick to use the office of president to cash in. Something I find truly disasteful and only wrecks his credibility, in my view. Carter still lives in a relatively modest home in Georgia where he grew up. This shows a great deal of discipline against temptation. It truly is a mark of great character.

I’m not the target for this kind of tool, so please take this as a soft critique if any at all: everything up to this point has struck me as positive, but this registered a big “yikes!” in me. I’d think top level components would be by far the simplest to handle reflow without any specific positioning considerations.
Not the article but another funny one, on the first album by band '68, the track names are a single letter and spell out "REGRETNOT." So both track 1 and track 4 are just named "R".

Track order # is part of the metadata, so it shouldn't have been an issue. But the music app I was using on Android at the time would crash whenever it got to a letter which was repeated (so the 2nd R E or T).

If you look up the album on streaming services, they use the naming format "TRACK 1 R, TRACK 2 E" and so on.
A car in Chicago is hell (at my first apartment it was first come first serve parking on the side of the road, the second required a valet which was also annoying), and mass transit was also a pain in the ass, and that's saying a lot since Chicago has an excellent mass transit system.
Sure, but at that point you're just saying that a neutral descriptive term is more commonly-applicable to one gender.

Is the word "sobbing" or the word "weeping" derogatory? Visibly-emotional crying is also associated with women, and isn't a stereotypically "manly" thing to do.
The problem with ImageMagick is that its scripting language sucks. I had tried using it a couple of times but it's too obscure and sparsely documented to get it to work for you. In the end I gave up because I realized that the result would be unmaintainable, so I'm better off with bash scripts.

Sips got it right with providing a Javascript API instead of inventing another obscure DSL.
> So, Roald Dahl's family and the company they still control are perfectly happy with this. Why aren't we?

Why should we care what some trust fund babies want?

If I'm reading a book by Dahl I want to read it as he intended. If you read the article you'll see how idiotic the changes are and how they literally change the meaning of the passages when considered "problematic".

They can write their own books if they want.
T.H. White's Once and Future King went through several revisions (including, unfortunately, the removal of the Madame Mim fight that showed up in the Disney movie). Only to say: such edits are not unprecedented; few things are the Bible (itself a heavily-edited book).
The “so what” is that what you are chatting with is profoundly unreliable— in a manner similar to chatting with a dementia patient or someone with other serious brain damage.

Anthropomorphizing these tools is wrong and dangerous. That’s an important point.
I had a C64 (still do, it has a USB interface and some new caps. these days).

Elite was jaw dropping stuff when it came out. For me the tactical display - the oval thing with two pixel objects and elevation plotted from the current nominal plane was an absolute game changer. You could literally (OK graphically) see what the heck was going on around you. For me the Wing Commander series of games (PC) improved on that somewhat with more clues wrt velocity as well as position. I'm sure there are others - I grew up a bit!

As well as an amazing HUD thing, the scope of the game was incredible. I've read write ups on how the universe was done and it is very impressive.
Oh, I don't know. I think he will get plenty of recognition. But he will get it precisely because he doesn't expect it and doesn't ask for it. I did not like his policies, but just the fact that he didn't cash in on the office of president like so many do now holds great value in my book. Clinton, Gore and Obama all became mega-millionaires within a few short years of leaving office. Carter puts them to shame with his austere simplicity.
>productivity has gone up, but wages and working hours have stayed constant.

If you can leverage technology to improve productivity, your wages WILL go up to match it. Software engineering wages have exploded over the last decade and are increasing far faster than productivity. The game is not rigged - great contributions lead to great rewards.

But if you don't have relevant tech skills, and you work the same way your parents worked, like most people do... then obviously no, your wages will not and should not go up. It doesn't matter if society in general is becoming more productive, if you didn't contribute to that productivity increase then why should you benefit from it?

People need to wake up and understand that raw labor is not valuable anymore. We don't need people who work hard and can follow directions, that's what computers are for. We need people who understand how things work. People who can improve existing processes and create new ones. For people like this, opportunities are endless.
This flood of "Ai isn't very good at anything" posts is an interesting look into the mechanics of mass denialism.
My first open source project was in 1997. I've been at this for 26 years.

Recently I've been working on a major update to one of my projects. However, I'm not going to "work in public" nor publish the source. I'm done with the yelling. I do these projects because I find them interesting. I don't enjoy the yelling.

Oddly, I physically met someone who was VERY vocal in postings. We had dinner together. He was a nice, intelligent, and oddly quiet kind of guy. His online personality and his "in person" personality were completely different.

Yes, one of the best parts of the early internet was the separation of space/domain that exists in real life. Now, it's much harder online. Which I always find ironic.
> Ok? I don't think society is overall hostile to men. I'm a man. I think I might have noticed.

Your left wing ideology is so extreme that it's causing you to hopelessly contradict yourself, are you aware of that? It looks ridiculous.

You already said "I'm perfectly fine with things like the future is female" - that's objectively a very hostile statement against men but because you yourself are a part of the woke misandrist social movement you keep trying to rationalize it. So you say things like "Society isn't generally hostile against your son; its hostility is to patriarchy" which is meaningless ideological babble. Woke people consider all men to be members of the "patriarchy" so it's the same thing. You also claimed "that as long as he's working for what's right, he doesn't have to worry too much if people's trauma leads them to mistake him as being part of something wrong" except this so-called trauma is a lie. Men are not oppressing anyone, you haven't benefited from any such oppression and if people identify that young man as "part of something wrong" then he does in fact have to worry about that, because they will oppress him in false vengance even though he is innocent.
Being fat is unhealthy and we shouldn't encourage it in any way.
>"Screeching" in english [...] is typically a gendered [...].

It's not.

Sure you would. I've never seen it posed any other way or with any other intent.
Just more "both sides" mainstream media.

> Your triggers are your responsibility; you can just not read author instead of pushing for and celebrating desecration of their work.

The same argument can be made about people who are triggered by this edition of the book. You can just not read the new edition instead of pushing for and celebrating the silencing of its owners.
Counterpoint: Ai is good at doing things and is quite cheap, and is getting even better at things at an increasingly fast pace.
Of course you can, in the same way that you could decide that a race of humans are not people and therefore have no rights.
