I was taught cursive at primary school and from the point it was taught it was mandatory for written work.

It was a great relief when, partway through secondary school, I realised I could just drop it for print as it did wonders for my ability to read my own writing, and reduced the number of "?" markers on homework from teachers too.
It does look like it launched, just googling the actual location for 'FUTO Open Repair Workshop' gives back recent activity based on reviews.

Does not seem to have much social media follow up though...
Not a movie, but my kid really enjoyed the 28 episodes of the ‘Lost in Space’ TV series on Netflix.
It’s rated 7+ but in my opinion 7 is too young. 12 should be perfect.
it is very hard for other languages to pull this off

as Erlang OTP uses a shared nothing architecture

each green thread has it own GC

communication is only via message passing

it is ok to fail over as the threads are easy to replicate as they are cheap

it is possible Golang via ergo as golang gets concurrency right, but doesnt have evolution systems and BEAM

Haskell via cloud haskell might replicate live view... but they are not the sensible defaults as in erlang/elixir/otp

Python never as their async concurrency parallelism story is ill-thought out w GIL limitations. Rust very very hard as their async concurrency design is extremely complex...
I was in a similar position in the past. My ex (5 y togheter) broke up with me in a very sudden to me manner. Details aside, my whole life did a backflip and fall on a neck. I was super depressed, crying and lost af.

First thing I did was to reach out to my friends. It is really hard to have any kind of constructive perspective in such situations. That’s were the most trusted people are needed. If you don’t have too many close friends, and it may sound a bit desperate but stay with me, find anyone who seems friendly and is willing to listen. You can also do something creative. Trust your common sense what feels refreshing to you. What makes you lighter. Just find a way to share your feelings and emotions. If you want to feel better you can’t seethe in resentment. You can’t carry past this way. You have to learn what it is and how to put it aside.

The next big step for me was to realise that there are other women that I could like as much as my ex. It was very surprising to me that someone else could be as lovely as she. That I could like someone else. Or maybe even love. But to do that I needed to meet a lot of people and put myself out there. I reached out to my friends to spent time togheter, I went to festivals and try to shift from very closed social circle to meeting a lot of new ppl.

The last step (this is a big generalisation) was to realise that I want to be happy. That I want to make myself into a person that’s happy. I don’t want people or things to make me happy. I want to be able to do it on my own. I explored isha yoga, wim hof practices, read many books (I searched HN and Reddit for “books that changed your life” and read a few). I had set my priority to “I need to feel better before I will decide what to do next”. And it is nothing nice. I learnt a lot about my mistakes. I asked my friends to tell me all the brutal truths they can manage about myself. It was crashing. Crash after crash I disillusioned myself from what I thought was working pretty well in me. But every time, after a few days I felt… better? Like more honest about who I am right now and who I would like to be. And that there’s a difference I need to accept and start to work on.

It is a very brief summary. I hope it will be at least a little bit helpful to you or anyone. Let me know if I could help anyhow or answer any questions.

Hello, my name is Tim, and I have recently graduated with a bachelors in computer science. I am hoping to start a career in software engineering or as a machine learning engineer. I have a passion for machine learning and AI, and I am looking for a full-time junior position. While I have little professional experience outside of teaching coding from previous internships at STEM academies, I have taken coursework in both the mathematical foundations of machine learning and in classical AI algorithms. I am also a quick and self-driven learner, and I am eager to contribute to a team and continue to grow my skill set and knowledge!
Polling has several benefits over pushing: a misbehaving endpoint can't knock out the whole system by having too much data, but at worse will just not get polled. Similarly load shedding is pretty simple.

In my experience the discovery and configuration is needed anyway to do something with the metrics.
Ha! I got real pissed at you making up stuff about me, before I googled the quote and saw that deviantart account.

I'm sorry to report, that's apparently just someone else who likes Harvey Birdman and porn (both of which I will admit to, but I never turned my interest into a productive hobby, I'm afraid). Note the age of the account - it's a touch older than stable diffusion.

That is indeed, a helluva quote.
> Having an AI research assistant or tutor surely should reduce the ridiculous prices of college textbooks and the need for TAs no?

Not clear: the textbook prices have been detached from reality for many years now not because there weren't alternative ways to get the knowledge all along. But because they are a part of a bloated system that works to extract more and more money by gatekeeping (formal degrees), upselling, cross-selling, making deals. That this system will disappear or become irrelevant overnight because of better tooling is not obvious. MIT had a bunch of classes online forever, a determined person could get all the content for a full degree almost for free for many years, yet people still flock to colleges and pay more money than ever to be a part of that (broken) system.

> Go look at OneMedical and Amazon and they seem to be bringing costs down significantly

If this was happening industry-wide, it would probably be noticeable on his "Medical care services" graph line, which instead is shooting way up? Maybe it's crap and I don't have any better data, but do you?
If you want to retain complicated window setups without running multiple sessions concurrently I really like tmuxinator [1]. It lets you declare everything about the session in a config file, and restart the session based only on the file.

It's crazy to me that you're arguing about the definitions of common, useful, specific words, for some kind of virtue signaling I suppose?

The word "child" and the word "felon" both have easy-to-find definitions:

This is not as stupid as it sounds. Car repossession agents are regularly victims of violence and get guns drawn at them because often times, the person being delinquent on their payments is not the friendliest person out there...

I personally would never buy a car with this "feature" but to say there is no logic or cause for this is disingenuous.
Chinese doesn’t have a writing system that mixes different sets of pictographs. It has traditional and simplified versions of the writing system but they’re not intermixed the way Japanese does it.
Such a great movie, one of my favorite science fiction films.
> (AEI's post also without irony points to the influence of open and free textbooks as something sure to bring down prices in the future, brought to you thanks to the free market).

Further irony: the open and free textbooks (and textbook alternatives, and increasingly efficient distribution of second hand textbooks) are probably one of the main drivers of the price rises. Publishers sell to tiny niches with a significant core market who find it really important to have the latest edition of the course text, and fringe around that that now has much cheaper alternatives. There's no mass market potential from pricing really low, so the publishers try to offset the loss of sales to the second group by squeezing the first group for higher prices. In any case, textbook revenues are already in decline despite the price rises.
Then life, not business is the lottery.

The lottery idea works in the sense that I was born in the U.S. rather than a developing country AND my parents, who were far from rich or even stable at times still were able to afford a family computer (thank you Atari 520ST) which was very fortunate since my formal education ended the 3rd time I was expelled from high school.

Yes, from the life perspective, as opposed to a worst-case (even in the U.S) I most certainly am privileged and lucky, and did certainly win a lottery of sorts. You’re absolutely correct.

Having said that, most of us that work in tech have won that same or a similar lottery.

Life, location, family, stability, yes those things are a bit of a lottery.

But not so for startups. Your odds of winning the lottery never increase. Your odds of winning in business do, as long as you learn from your failures.
"What I'm trying to figure out is, given my current position, age, experience etc, how far can I realistically go, and how do I get there?"

Backward compatibility. In 1970, you buy an IBM mainframe and start writing apps to run on it. In 2023, you are still running the same code base - albeit with innumerable enhancements and fixes over the ensuing decades. On an IBM mainframe, that code base will just work. On Linux, it won’t even run - unless you buy some expensive mainframe rehosting package, which is full of gaps and limitations, and may introduce obscure bugs which the original lacked.

Reliability - most large-scale Linux systems are based on a distributed model - the app runs on a cluster containing dozens/hundreds/thousands of servers, if a single server has a hardware fault, the app just keeps on working and at worst some user might get an error which goes away if they retry. So, no point in spending $$$$ to maximise the reliability of any individual node.

By contrast, many mainframe customers have just one mainframe, and if it breaks they go down - which means the mainframe hardware has to be super-reliable, filled with redundancy, error detection/recovery, etc - and you pay $$$$ for all that redundancy.

IBM mainframes can be clustered - e.g. z/OS Parallel Sysplex - but only the largest sites do that. The maximum supported cluster size is 32 - I wonder if anyone actually runs one that big, 32 mainframes would be horrendously expensive - while Linux clusters with hundreds or thousands of nodes are quite common.

Sure, if shaving a millisecond off the execution time of your compiler is your idea of a good time.
One of the biggest pain points in monetization of open source is that the large companies such as Amazon and Microsoft are in a better position to provide support and cloud hosting for open source projects than even the original developer. That is because because it is open source, the big company is able to see exactly how the internals of the service work. However, the internals of the cloud service are still opaque to open source cloud hosting company. Thus the cloud company is in a better position to optimize and debug the open source product.

In addition, companies like having “one throat to choke”. It is a nightmare for business when different vendors all blame each other. If the service is hosted by the cloud company, there is one neck to choke since they own the entire experience.

In addition, good software engineering practices reduce the moat of the original open source company. APIs and documentation and tests for an open source project should allow an experience software developer who is unfamiliar with the project to quickly come up to speed. Thus, the large company can rapidly acquire expertise in the open source tool if they want to.

Paradoxically, these issues apply most to venture capital startups where there is an expectation of massive valuation and return on investment. A “lifestyle” business supporting open source software is very doable mainly because the returns, while large for the person, and not big enough to attract the large companies. An example of such a successful open source business is I think SQLite where, from Hwaci makes a decent amount of money supporting SQLite, but not enough to attract unwanted attention.
Why is this that much worse than remote ignition lock?
In your mind, yes. You likely have never been in a position where violating constitutional protections is useful to you at all. In the mind of a police officer, both are impediments to where they "need" to be. Also, the sanction for violating the constitution is actually lower than the sanction involved in speeding. There are ridiculous ideas like "qualified immunity" that allow cops to get cheap malpractice insurance that covers them, and their unions generally force departments to pay cops who are on leave - the worst case is a small loss of overtime pay.

> This is very far from the main point: accuracy of the claim that AI will wipe out (in this case health-related) jobs (and/or make health-related services cheaper). "involved" here is so vague as to be meaningless.

Let me rephrase: AI is better at human beings at the sort of pattern-matching work that radiology entails, so the majority of radiologists will be unemployed (I'll say in 20 years, if you want to check back down the line a bit and see how I did). This will both improve patient outcomes (fewer mistakes) and lower costs. Some radiologists will remain in supervisory/research/needing to have a human to rubber stamp type roles.

> It may be crystal clear to you that AI will bring the cost of popular education down, but it is not clear to me at all, and adding "clearly" and "obviously" to some future claim does not make it any more convincing. He's trying to work with existing trends and data, you are saying "clearly the trend will reverse just because".

I'm not saying anything "just because." I'm saying that technological changes in the form of AI will cause the trend to change, as technological changes have caused numerous economic upheavals. Nonetheless, I will be more specific - AI will give everyone a completely knowledgeable, fully personalized tutor. It will be able to very specifically identify places where a student is having difficulty and create custom exercises that are tailored to not only the subject, but also the student's optimal methods of learning. It will be able to custom tailor curriculum to fit a student's specific knowledge and career goals. The relative inefficiency of the large-scale lecture model of higher education will be so significant that the value it'll retain will just lie in the brand cache of the institute of higher learning (effectively, you passed the Stanford admissions AI's muster, so you're smart).
I see what you mean, but I think it's slightly the wrong analysis on a linguistic level. 'They' doesn't generally introduce a presupposition of non-binarity (either semantically or via pragmatic inference). If it did, it would be hard to account for the innumerable examples of 'they' being used with unambiguously masculine and feminine quantificational antecedents.

For this reason I think that people who are offended by being referred to by 'they' are wrong to be offended. I think they're wrong in a way that, say, a trans woman is not wrong to be offended if someone insists on using 'he'. In the former case, the person may feel that they are being misgendered – but only on the basis of a dodgy linguistic analysis. Of course, we should accommodate people's pronoun preferences, regardless of whether we agree with their underlying logic in any given case.

The story about your neighbor doesn't really make sense to me. Surely it occurred to her that the other forum poster might not have cared much what her gender was, or have paid much attention to her photo, or simply didn't care to take a guess even if she appeared clearly female. To interpret this as intentional misgendering seems a bit nuts. If she was simply worried about whether she appeared clearly feminine in the photo, then that's an understandable anxiety, but one that has little to do with singular they. (If singular they were off limits then I guess the poster might have used 'he' instead, which hardly seems better.)
IANAL. Legally the GPL doesn't care about proprietary or free software. What is cares about is that you license any combined works under the GPL. You could copy+paste the GPL, change the name and it wouldn't be a valid license for a "a work based on the Program".

> You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License

If you’ve followed Louis Rossmann at all, this is what he’s been up to the last few years. It’s really cool to know that his right to repair focus has continued into these kinds of efforts. I hope I can swing down to Austin sometime in the near future to see this.
I think it is just a draft, given more time they could come up with better units.

The thing is, Might and Magic RPG series was always merge of both worlds: creatures looked mystical, but you were made aware that the story takes place on some distant planet (and occasionally you visited a spaceship, and shot a blaster). Having Forge faction in Armageddons Blade would be a direct continuation of the plot introduced in Might and Magic VII: For Blood and Honor, but I think 3DO did not realize that Heroes series created their separate fanbase, not familiar with the RPG games at all...
This analysis is off by orders of magnitude. Tesla shipped 1.3 million vehicles in 2022, each of which contained a battery pack [1]. 3 million barrels of oil contains 6.1 * 10^15 joules of primary energy [2]. World primary energy production in 2021 was 5.95 * 10^20 joules [3].

Combining these numbers, Tesla's 1.3 * 10^6 battery packs shipped in 2022 would have taken 7.93 * 10^21 joules to manufacture. This is more than 10 times annual global energy production and is clearly in error.

Another way to spot-check and reject this number is to note that 3 million barrels of oil would cost in the neighborhood of $240 million. Getting that much energy from coal might cost only $75 million per vehicle but it's still a proposition that would see Tesla losing approximately $100 trillion dollars per year on sales of 1.3 million vehicles.

Sooo what is says is that Open Core goals are mostly to get your users hooked under pretense the software is "open source", while putting just enough features behind the proprietary part that you have no choice using it once your product grows ?
https://archive.is/x6zsn
Open core is open source + proprietary add ons. Gitlab is probably the best example. There is an open source gitlab which you can use and host, but the commercial product you pay for has a whole lot of additional features which big orgs need
I'm kinda confused about what you said regarding free(). The linked Github page has a free(), but it doesn't appear to be a NOOP.
Completely agree , If I’m ever feeling cloudy, foggy, down, extremely tired during the day I usually feel better almost immediately after 2 glasses of water.

Yes I know what you mean, you don’t have to drink it all at once, but I still get bored having to drink. It’s just. Personal thing I guess. Kind of have to force water into my system.

Ask HN: How about we rename FAANG to MAMAA?
I still hear people refer to the top tech companies as FAANG, but I think that term is outdated because Netflix is waning in relevance and two of the FAANG companies have changed their names. So, I propose that we switch from saying "FAANG" to "MAMAA" (Meta, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet). I also think this acronym is more fun to say (example: referring to big tech as "big MAMAA") and maybe even a metaphor for how smaller companies are like children beholden to MAMAA's platforms. Anyone with me?

No, it means there are always adaptations. I defined what it means.

The precedent is what has evidence. Your pessimism doesn't have evidence to support inhabitable conditions within a few decades unless we initiate an authoritarian world government to control all growth and control the climate. The burden of proof is on you, not me.

Why? Presumably one could operate the buildings at slight negative pressure and have separate intake and exhaust vents and fans. The exhaust fans would have whatever kind of filter removes ethanol.
