It’s very easy to go on vacation: rent from a motel or hotel, which is infrastructure that is in place specifically for vacationing. Go camping. Go rent a van or RV.

Single family housing should not be seen as an investment vehicle apart from the equity one builds in their own home.

There are zoning laws in place for a reason and when you bypass those laws to turn residential areas into businesses, it does not end in a positive experience for either side.
I just unlocked a 6.1 for free using a method described on a website techmesto.com. Not affiliated, just can vouch for the process.

Cool thing about 6.1 is that it's officially supported by LineageOS
> It doesn't matter. If the content of the paper were worth even looking at, it should exist in channels that do discriminate more.

As jjgreen points out (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34937266), it does.

But, whether or not your point of view is legitimate—in my case, I agree with your point of view, and won't give serious consideration to anything only available on vixra, and even just finding out an otherwise reputable-seeming paper was on vixra would give me pause—it is literally credentialism.
Given that these are a lot of homelab examples; this is great. I use a bunch of these and plan to use more.

But part of me still makes me think about what I think might be the gold standard of self-hosted, cloud-like things, and that's Syncthing? As in, all of these things should try to figure out how to be like syncthing?
Hario Mini Mill Slim. It's not fantastic, but it's a burr grinder, and it's consistent enough for french press in my experience. Too slow for fine grind settings though. Bought one as a student ~15 years ago. Options were much more limited i.e. nonexistent at that time, but it's still my camping/travel hand grinder.

1zpresso grinders are fantastic and (as you said earlier) a buy-it-for-life thing. But if you're struggling with cost, a Hario is much better and not much more than an electric blade grinder.
What is the famous Dropbox comment?
It seems like a really nice phone and my interest was peaked until I saw it’s only a 4G/LTE phone. I wonder if they’ll come out with a 5G version?
Major press outlets have called it a racist rant. Wikipedia will likely do so also, citing those major press outlets. Therefore, it is a racist rant.
The DropBox comment was also “offering” a simpler way of storing data using rsync.

The issue is that these guys solved a problem and are seeing the monetary benefit, but the first comment is explaining in tech jargon how to solve this problem “better”. Can’t that user just accept the end result is the same, but OP got there without in-depth knowledge of technology that can solve this faster?
Nah, he's been going at it for ages, just in more subtle words. I guess this is the first time he said some things directly enough and as you said, being openly ignorant of real issues.
> Most sources say that the battery will keep an acceptable capacity for around 500 cycles, i.e. 1.5 years if fully charged daily.

This is what I see online, but this hasn't been my experience for any of my devices. My current phone is on year 5 with the same battery, and it's still very decent. I charge it every day to 100% and often plug it back in while it's still at 50%, so it's not like I'm being more careful than usual.

There's a cynical part of me that thinks that these kinds of numbers are put forward by the industry to feed the narrative that these gadgets need to be replaced regularly.
nice! thanks for the link, that gives me hope
The following is an actual quote from the stream:

That is not "racist rant" to you?
People are all too eager to judge or enforce against handicapped space violaters so why would the wheelchair situation be any different.

I guess unlike parking theres technically no law being violated and people are afraid to speak out on a plane since the consequences are higher for any conflict on board an airplane.
Definitely. People have made DIY scopes for at least a century. There's still a lot of old literature around. Among optical systems, a basic telescope is one of the least complex.

If Alice, Bob, and Charlie knows distance to satellites, then they can calculate the true timestamps of events. Alice will register explosion of satellite 1 at time Ta1 and distance Da1, satellite 2 at time Ta2 and distance Da2, and so on, then Alice will subtract time of propagation to receive true timestamps and will see that `Ta1 - Da1/c = Ta2 - Da2/c`.
So interesting that people think facts are the only thing that's valuable. Your comment isn't a fact, does that mean it's worthless?
I'm sorry you accidentally joined an internet cult, but Yud did not invent philosophy, especially not Wittgenstein.
Yeah, and Linux will probably have an even longer support period. But MS is in a totally different business. HW manufacturers build and sell new devices to customers who then buy software from a different company (MS). One of the selling point of Windows is that it runs on basically all HW. But they can only afford this because they have monopolized the market.

The mobile phone business is very different. (But you may argue that that's the problem.) The HW manufacturers sell the SW bundled with the HW. As soon as they have sold the HW, the software is just a liability (while for MS it's a recurrent revenue!). Not only that, but the longer and the better the SW works, the less likely you are to buy new HW from them. (And since that's the only thing they are selling, it means the less likely they will see a revenue from you.) Now this may imply that the business model is flawed and maybe it will change as the market matures and people will stop buying newer and newer phones every year. Just like it happened to desktops and then laptops. (I'm typing this on a 7+ year old Thinkpad and the only thing I miss is +16GB RAM.)

If there's going to be a singularity it might be the lifespan of each fad is half the lifespan of the next fad until we have a rapture that takes away the "idea people" and then the grinds who execute will inherit the Earth.
I use AirBnb in the US and booking.com outside the US. I usually prefer a boutique hotel type place to an AirBnb but those are more than I want to pay most of the time in the US.

I avoid staying in places where the rent market is really tight but realize my being there still causes rents to rise. I also stay in touristy places in the off season, such as Jersey Shore in the winter or Miami in the summer (just have to be aware of the IV indexes).

The hotels and the regulatory industry surrounding them and making it expensive without always being nicer are free to win back more of my business in the US. Their move.
Subscripts on symbols you can do in sympy as well. Also multiple subscripts.

In your formulas you can have Greek letters in sympy. But you'll have to give the symbols valid python names.
IANAL, but I believe trademark protection is more applicable here. Firstly, it is more applicable to an identifying mark, symbol or logo. And it can be renewed indefinitely.
Kinda sad that a removable battery is considered a repairability feature. It used to be the standard, and without removing any screws. And the phones weren't that much bigger. Still good to see though.

What I've always wanted is a phone with swappable batteries and a tiny lipo that keeps the phone on for the few seconds it takes you to exchange batteries. Unlimited battery life without rebooting as long as you have charged batteries lying around.
“It’s okay to be white” is more of a bait than a dog whistle. Dog whistle isn’t just a generic term for “thing I don’t like”.
Good for you. Ugly though the phrase is, 'putting your money where your mouth is' is an at least partially effective lever on reality.
Are tests which gauge a college students ability to regurgitate text verbatim useful? Are these college students getting what we think is worthwhile learning out of these cramming sessions?
You're absolutely right.

If they wanted to make a truly repairable phone, they'd release the source code for all the binary blobs to enable the folks at LineageOS to continue to release fixes past the manufacturer's notional end of support period (which does not correlate with the possible lifespan of the device).
When I read words like singularity or AGI..is when I know we’re at peak hype and correction is coming. I just hope its not another AI winter. Because I’d still like to see this area continue to grow.
The Keith Jarrett Interview (Rick Beato)
Ignore what junior developers think or say. They almost always have zero clue and simply parrot whatever is fashionable at the moment. While happily creating maintenance nightmares that depends on 1000+ libraries with hundreds of bugs and security issues.

Wait until their code is so bad that they are spending 100% of their time just fixing bugs, while you are maintaining critical code in production with zero bugs, working 100% on new features. And then politely ask them if they still believe what they claimed back then or whether they have learned something from their choices :)

Unfortunately they usually leave before their code hits 100% crappiness, leaving a mess for people to take over. I have seen this so many times that it stopped being funny a long time ago. Which is why I only hire experienced developers.
Before you describe something as a "fringe theory", you might want to check whether it is taught by major textbooks in the field.

Absolutely wild that people are being told “this seemingly anodyne statement is actually a white supremacist dog whistle” and their reaction is to double down on blaming people for not co-signing it.

As much as I like Atlas Obscura, this short article is quite close to blog spam. The references are much more interesting.

The amount of extra radiation the workers receive seems quite low compared to the rest of the population [1], maybe about the same as living in Denver, CO?

From 2012:

https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20121113/bushwick/epa-start...

> The level of radiation for a worker would fall at 120 millirem (the unit used to measure radiation's effect on the human body) per year, 20 percent more than the recommended 100 millirem per year for an average person.

> “A cleanup is clearly warranted,” Brenner said. "But I can see why it might not be considered a super-high priority situation.”

> A worker at Primo Auto Body, for instance, would raise his chance of contracting fatal cancer by 1 in 25,000, according to the information available.

From 2013 https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20131022/bushwick/businesse...:

> The agency is finishing construction of thick raised concrete and lead floors in both Terra Nova and its neighbor, Primo Auto Body Shop, to protect workers from the radiation.

> "It's been a nightmare," said Silvio Hernandez, the owner of Terra Nova, which has a storage facility and office at the site. "We were out of business for three weeks."

> The owner of Primo Auto Body said the construction had cost him significant business since only part of his space was functional.

> ...

> The shielding, which Daly said should be completed in December, has been to guard against gamma radiation, levels of which Daly said were not high enough to spur immediate health problems but were "high enough to do something" at the two businesses.

> The EPA also tested a nearby daycare center and school but found no heightened radiation at those sites, Daly said.

You could just use a heat pump during off peak hours to heat up ceramic bricks. Then the question is whether the off-peak hours price reduction offsets having to heat the thermal mass of the bricks.
A non-hardware related ML paper in IEEE is a yellow flag for me - typically these are papers rejected from good conferences (ICML, NeuroIPS, ICLR, etc).
It would help to put it in context.

He basically referenced some poll that asked black people if "it's ok to be white". And half said "no".

So he said "that's a hate group"

And said "the only solution is to get away from people [black people] who hold those views"
Advising whites segregate themselves from blacks on the grounds of a poll result?

First that’s a hell of a thing to say based on a poll result.

Second it doesn’t really follow when the point of integration wasn’t that every racial group unanimously had warm cuddly views of another, the biggest reason it happened is that segregation was causing things like unequal treatment of black people and self-esteem issues in black children. What he advises is something we know has racist outcomes in practice, and it’s also directly racist to literally just avoid or associate with people because of skin colour.
> and no, ssh(1) can't confirm if the answer was actually validated or not.

Isn’t this a gap in the API? res_query/etc should provide some way to find out if the response is validated or not. That would require either (1) a validating resolver running locally, or (2) a remote validating revolver, accessed over a secure protocol (such as DoT or DoH), which the system administrator has elected to trust. But the system should be able to tell applications, via some API, whether (1) or (2) hold or not

>> do we need to knock them down for it?

No, allow people to do what they want without judgement - even if it seems dumb. Focus attention on people that are legitimately causing harm.
Yes it's normal, but it's incredibly wasteful.

There's no reason outside of software updates why a 3-year-old phone can't continue to be used—mine is now 5 years old and works fine, and I only upgraded from my now 7-year-old phone because my brother had one that he thought he'd bricked that I resurrected. Neither phone is fast, but they're perfectly serviceable.

What I don't understand is why these updates aren't a solved problem. Desktop hardware manufacturers sell equipment that continue to be supported for 10+ years by Windows, and they manage to stay in business just fine. Why is it that a 3-year support window is considered normal in the mobile world?
What does his sexual preference have to do with his qualifications for this job?

I think it’s fair to criticize his response but bringing up his sexual preference is a tired and bigoted complaint. His detractors seem to be more concerned about his sexuality than anyone else.
some serious professionals in tech and elsewhere are driven by internal or external forces to do things professionally that may not align well with larger considerations?
Think of how much people throw away each week. A phone is only a couple hundred grams and takes up a small amount of space. Think of how many phones could fit in a single garbage bag. The number will be way more than the number of phones they will go through in their entire life. So in your entire life you are saving a fraction of a garbage bag's worth of garbage.
Pretty nasty coordination problem. I'm somewhat surprised so many people are willing to defect though, in the face of what I assumed were pretty strong cultural norms against getting in a wheelchair and pretending to be crippled. I know a bunch of people joke about the west being over or whatever, but this is some of the strongest evidence I've seen. 25 people claiming to need a wheelchair on what I assume is a flight of less that 300?!?
I always think it’s silly to board early. I wait till near the end. Much Roomier outside the plane.
Need opinion on creating a password manager
I am working on a project of creating a password manager which lets you generate a unique email and fake details to fill along with the password cause most password manager only let you generate a password but you are still using your main mail in all the websites

This will prevent mail spam cause you will get a separate mail account for every website you register and you can get access to it’s inbox and mail password

Also after registering you will get a private RSA Key which can’t be cracked and which won’t be stored in the server so even if whole website got hacked there is no way the hackers can retrive the passwords cause they need the private key to decrypt the password and every user will have a separate private key

What do you think of the idea should i proceed with creating it or is it just waste of time?
Ideally, they would release the source code for the drivers, and the manuals for each IP block in the SoC, etc.

For some reason, hardware manufacturers have decided that their manuals are secret.

Of course, if you ban distribution of your product manuals, then only criminals that pirate your IP will be able to properly implement drivers for your product…
Again, if you read my comment, you would understand that I think it is totally fine that humans are acting towards what is incentivized. But for those that see this behavior as detrimental, it is no use to point fingers at the owners of those properties, but instead to aim at the overarching structures.
How to always maximise your career choices:

1. Every year do a bit of research and figure out what the most sought after technologies are in job ads from companies you would potentially like to work for.

2. Pick one or more technology from the list and learn it well enough to pass a job interview by implementing small but realistic examples of biz applications using it.

That’s it.
Classic. What's the context for the poll? You're giving one party the benefit of the doubt but not the other.

Yeah, but is it left sock or right sock? Imagine, that you opened the suitcase, get the blue sock, put it on the left foot, then you discover that the RIGHT sock is missing, thus the RIGHT sock is at home.

It was clear a long time back that you can’t just go by the rating alone. I’ve Airbnb’Ed regularly and here’s my tips:

1. Stop renting whole homes. Stop being part of the problem. Airbnb is good for someone letting out their spare room and that’s all I use it for.

2. Avoid any place with less than 30 ratings. Hard to tell with anything fewer.

3. Try your best to stick to superhosts.

4. Avoid places where you share bathrooms. Seems like a good filter.

5. Read through at least ten (if not all) of the non five star reviews. Read fully. Most people tend to leave somewhat positive reviews even if they had a less than positive experience but they WILL mention the problems they had in the last sentence or in a mellow way. Exaggerate and read between the lines to understand the reality.

If you’re not willing to do all of this just book a hotel (though I have a similarly complex process for them as well).

53:21 so less than a third, Scott Adams counting “not sures” as somehow nefarious is some bias analysis.

Doesn’t seem so shocking to me and it doesn’t make me want to change how I act day to day, especially because the people who popularized that phrase were so controversial that people might be having less of an issue with the sentiment of “it’s okay to be white” itself and instead might have an issue which how those posters were put up with razor blades behind them by literal white supremacists which injured innocent janitors. There’s a lot of confounding factors and the exact phrasing is politically loaded so it makes for a lousy barometer of black attitudes towards white people.
It shouldn't. But it should enact rules that govern certain types of goods, like local housing.

Housing and rentals are different because unlike most goods, there really isn't a good alternative to not purchasing the good, and because the supply side of the market is necessarily slow, and constrained by geography.

In other words housing in your local area is an entirely different good than housing 100 miles away, and we should recognize that ensuring the opportunity for shelter to all people is a moral necessity higher than ensuring that pleasure travelers can stay in any given place.

We place a mountain of restrictions on real estate in most of the western world. Requiring that housing be used as housing is a pretty reasonable take.

If you think that people should be able to use their property for anything they want, fine, but don't get upset when someone wants to open a 24 hour go kart track nextdoor.

Why aren’t you saying that Russia is playing roulette by attacking NATO adjacent country? Why is it the US responsibility to de-escalate and withdraw support? Keeping in mind that Ukraine would keep fighting and Russia would have hard time capturing and keeping whole country.

One part of nuclear deterrence is standing up to bullies and making clear the lines. This includes escalation points leaving flexibility for conventional warfare. Remember that US and Russian pilots fought over Korea and Vietname, and that there are multiple cases of supplying other side.

The US has done good job of not escalating because supplying Ukraine has worked well. Russia knows that using nuclear weapons or attacking NATO bases will provoke response, probably aerial attacks inside Ukraine. It is unlikely to escalate beyond that and Ukraine doesn’t need ground help. Attacking inside Russia is too risky. Russia or NATO will never be invaded.
"okay to be white" is a far-right cry. It is almost like saying white power and certainly is meant to be more charged than "all lives matter."

Of course many black people will think negatively of a phrase that is designed to upset that demographic.
