Of course, no argument there. But the fact that printing presses produce most of the world's printed paper doesn't mean inkjet isn't useful.

I guess it depends on how "plug and play" printers can become, right now they are pretty fiddly. Still, I think their growth is pretty healthy, even if not every home has one.

Thank you, I wasn't aware of them. IIUC the laptops are made by Clevo? It looks like a very interesting option, I'll check them out.
Okay I understand. Lame behavior on their part.
I can agree any Apple-specific lock-in is not good, however you're talking about the ability to chat on the platform and not going beyond just access to include whether we should be trusting our data to that platform—different questions. Both XMPP or Matrix have clients on all OSs, lack a phone number requirement, but can also both be self-hosted + decentralized, and with open specs and you can read the source on the encryption to validate the trustworthiness. These are the routes we should head and there's nothing stopping folks from using them today other than they don't have a for-profit entity to market them.

Obviously, this goes back to the root issue as there are philosophical reasons to straight prefer certain technologies—like the ability to side-load apps on your pocket computer—that you should try not to compromise on just because of peer pressure.
If the number can't be negative surely you should be using unsigned ints?
I also stop using dual monitors when switching to dwm (for 10 minutes) then awesome. Because fiddling with config files to get dual monitors + tags right and adapting to a tiling workflow with two screens was too much to handle for me. And I didn't find much use for the second monitor after a while (mail ? messaging ? it was just an secondary interface to distractions).

It made my life easier because I don't have to manage the second monitor ("am I sharing the good screen ?", "why does the main monitor stay in sleep mode ?", etc.). Both laptop and monitor have the same resolution so I keep using the external monitor, it's more comfortable.

I am considering an ultra wide monitor though but I have concerns around it being too wide and adding eye or neck fatigue long term.
It might not be legal, but it isn't hard to find newer versions to download if you know where to look – z/OS 1.11 is floating around, it is from 2009, so still rather old, but a lot newer than the 1970s. Also you can find some OS/390 and MVS/ESA versions from before that (1990s vintage). If someone privately runs it for purely non-commercial purposes – I myself never have, but some people do – I think it is rather unlikely IBM will sue them.

The easiest way to get z/OS install media is to sign up for zPDT – it costs many thousands, but still a lot cheaper than what IBM charges for z/OS for an actual physical mainframe – and then you get the the ADCD media with that. The problem is, starting with z/OS 1.15, IBM began encrypting the ADCD media. As part of the installation, the media is decrypted, using the key on the hardware dongle – but the decrypted copy is watermarked with the dongle ID, meaning that IBM can trace back any leak to the individual customer responsible for it. This means people are no longer willing to publicly share ADCD media, although I've heard rumours of some people passing it around privately, only to trusted individuals. Someone could reverse-engineer the watermarking and remove it, but I'm not aware anybody has done that–I think people would still worry, what if they failed to completely understand the watermarking, and hence some of it survived?
One of them is straight up the "Chad" meme. It's blatantly obvious.

Ask HN: Best ultrawide monitor for programming and gaming?
I work from home and have a Windows PC for gaming and have a Mac for work. I plan to buy a KVM switch to make it easier to switch between the 2 and to allow me to share my mouse and keyboard but would like to also use an ultrawide monitor for both since it seems most affordable KVMs are 2 ports.

Any suggestions? Also open to normal monitors that can properly daisy chain for both Windows and Mac using a DisplayPort KVM but my understanding is DisplayPort daisy chaining doesn’t work on Mac.
You understand they don’t make laws, right?
does Mathematica actually compute it or is it just loading the value that it already knows?
For me at least the touchpad feels like a less precise channel that is only attractive due to portability. You never quite know where exactly the pointer will stop when you stop moving your finger (the inertia of the mouse might somehow help with that feeling)

We do know what must be objectively the most precise device - what digital artists use to create designs and paintings and its neither a mouse nor a touchpad :-). But it would be interesting to see if people have actually measured this.

But indeed there is the more general concept of "control" and in this general sense any multi-touch device that makes use of more fingers opens in principle a larger range of interactions.

I think that people mistake building/ bundling js with compiling js. even when you use bundlers, the code still needs to be compiled by the JIT. so bundling is really kind of a weird step that makes web dev different afaik. they're trying to turn browser dev into a standardized scripting environment and stop the silly browsers from trying to innovate in what should be user-dev space. That's my idealistic take at least.

personally I've been using vanilla es6 for years and not bundling, because I dont care about mobile safari, and I love it.
Especially because it closes the door on things like "reader macros" which are one of my favourite Lisp features.
Some years ago I was a carpenter in the UK. From what I can see this has changed little since then... If I were laying out for sheet materials...mdf or plasterboard came in metric sizes 2400x1200mm so joists or studs went at 400mm centres. If I were laying out for plywood it came in 8x4ft sheets so I would use 16 inch centres.

If I were measuring a space to cut something to fit I would use inches or feet and inches, 23 an 1/8, for instance.

I might need a small hole about 1/8 of an inch, open my drill box and select a 3mm.

If I were ordering timber I might ask for a 3 metre length of 4x2. As in 4x2 inches! If 3m were too long you might prefer an 8ft length. The yardman would walk you straight to the 2.4m pile without hesitation. Of course timber lengths are in 300mm increments to align with the feet of old. When you got your despatch note it would say something like 2400x100x50. Or perhaps they used regularised timber and it would have been machined down to 97×47 which may or may not be mentioned on the ticket. It would still be called 4x2 whatever!

Thing is, none of this caused us any trouble whatsoever. Well.. apprentices who learnt cm at school (which was NEVER used in construction) had a fun few weeks at the beginning.

I had engineers use all the same terms to me verbally, but never in their written work which were always in mm

Author here, the article is more about how Rust and its ecosystem are nice tools for language designers rather than the beauty of Lisp.

The crates listed in that article are the ones I use for my compiler: https://letlang.dev

Lisp was only chosen as a way to demonstrate the power of those crates and Rust features. A kind of way of justifying my choices for Letlang.

It's not "you should do it like this" but "you can do it like this".

Slackware in the 90s was amazing. Super stable. I think
I continued to run Slackware until around 2002 to 2004 (can’t say for sure but it was to run an early(ish) version of Ableton for laptop DJing - as I was creating a concept set that just wouldn’t have been possible with vinyl alone), and wanted a distro that was a little lower maintenance given the advances to Linux at that point.

I’ll always have a soft spot for Slackware even if I’d never dream of running it any longer.
I wish this would be possible in our societies.
Ask HN: Is Anyone Using Datamesh?
I sat through a few conference talks this week where data mesh continued to be the hot-new-thing(tm) that everybody mentions. But I've yet to encounter anyone actually using it, to the extent that when asked, one of the presenters on "how we do datamesh at x" revealed that actually they where just starting the project of implementing it and weren't actually using the concept in production yet.

I'm curious, data mesh isn't unique in having a big consultancy buzz around it, but seems distinct in that I don't know anyone even attempting to use it.

Am I living in a bubble? Anyone out there using datamesh? How's it working/not-working for you?

> Ox bile

Is that really weird? I take lactase enzyme which was far as I know was originally extracted from cow intestines (until they developed a better method using yeast).

There's also a lot of interest in fecal transplants for people with digestive issues.

So, while I've never heard of ox bile supplement it doesn't seem unreasonable that it would work. Rejecting it out of hand because of the name is kinda silly. You should listen to your girlfriend here, it sounds like she's more educated on this topic than you are.
I am very confused by your comments. PHP developers thought "sanitizing" strings aka escaping and validating strings is enough to get rid of SQL injections and that is how they ended up with multiple iterations of escaping functions. The problem, which is the separation of code from data, has not been solved and that is why it is a bad idea. The SQL example template in the article uses positional parameters via JDBC and is therefore completely safe to use. It is impossible to get it wrong except by using STR which is obviously the wrong template processor.

> Archlinux “Zen” (lower latency kernel).

that might be the problem

low latency kernels aren't of any help unless you're running realtime (or near-realtime) workloads. not only that, in order to guarantee high priority tasks they will hurt regular process performances.

for desktop usage running a "low latency" kernel is probably a bad idea (no wonder "low latency" kernel config are not the default choice).
The techniques themselves are very cool and inspiring.

That said, the reason such things do/don't take off isn't about how cool they are, generally. It's about how useful they are.

Even for games, immersion and realism are secondary to gameplay. For most applications, it's hard to see how a "realistic window" is useful. A flat paper, paper-like screen is better to read off, for example.

Cool tech. Definitely worth exploring gaming potential. Not easy to apply to other uses. There's no benefit to making an online shop window more like a real shop window. Catalogue is what you want in any case.
True, but I disagree. Currently, the object is in dispute with the father. So, from the kid perspective, the father is responsible up to some degree. Here's their relationship at stake.

If i where Apple i would completely opensource the PC-Hardware (documentation, firmware etc). I bet ~everyone would buy a M*-Mac, just let the customer install Windows/Linux/BSD. They could wipe out every other laptop producer in one snip.

Minimalism is a major factor for cognitive accessibility. If you build for the lowest common denominator then of course qualities like control must necessarily take a dive. If Google gave you more controls for search then it'd be better search, but then it wouldn't be as minimal anymore.

On software you have lots of room to hide complexity for the pro user, but that's not the case for hardware.

Also a thread search/filter would be nice, say I type in 'laravel' or 'remote', it'll filter all threads w/ those in it including on other pages. Honestly, there's a ton that could be done to make connecting people/jobs/contracts better.

Nope. You didn't read the article. The peptide hormones usually don't even occur in "a healthy diet" or at least a common one, nor would they survive a digestive tract. They are chains of a few aminoacids, essentially very very short proteins. Insulin falls under this category. Yes, they have to be kept relatively cool and have to be injected, most or all of them.

And they are genuinely useful (not just the insulin). Semaglutid for example was first isolated from some reptile's salivary gland (healthy diet??) and is very effective at controlling diabetes and regulating appetite in people who have an obvious issue with that.
The Killing Star by George Zebrowski. In my opinion a pretty terrifying rapid scenario.
I attended a talk by a PhD student who specializes in CPU/architectural research, on the M1 as an architecture. There are some key differences in design, such as unified memory etc, but what accounts for a large part of the performance gap with x86 is the fact Apple's compilers can target their specific microarchitecture and optimize for that, because they know its performance characteristics well.

We know the performance characteristics of various x86 cores, however there are simply a lot of them, so most precompiled x86 code is generically targeted but likely has suboptimal parts on different architectures. You can, of course, -mtune= with gcc, but you'd basically need to rebuild your distribution. Or in other words, the ideal would be to compare someone running Gentoo vs macOS.

So, that was the gist of the talk and I more or less accept the conclusions. Now for my own view, I think what makes ARM processors interesting is their efficiency wrt power consumption. I would love a non-Apple ARM laptop if only because intel cores are much less efficient in terms of power they require.
That's true, but money saving did result in the lack of a proper containment building.
Well, the article is called "a simple Lisp", not "a fully featured Lisp". It's a demo, not a compliant implementation.

Ever wanted to peek into your GPU's cache setup?
the 128 cores is just $5,518.00 ... neat.
I think you have it backwards.

The lower latency kernels are great for desktops (and the default for desktop distros typically). They sacrifice raw power for lower latency.

So my compiles take a bit longer as the kernel will switch tasks more often, but keypresses will be captured with reduced latency from my perspective.

I have tested this, the stock arch kernel has considerable more latency on inputs.

It takes a lot of time to find the right model and settings with AI.
All of that.

Interestingly I actually ran gentoo for a while on that machine precisely for that reason, but the overall latency improvement was marginal.

Certainly not worth recompiling things all the time in my opinion, even with a beefy machine like mine.
A Mac Studio should be able to do it since it has unified memory.
The article confuses training, inference and running the game environment. Best guess is the NDP2000 chip does just inference based on the serialised visual data it receives from another machine running Doom. I seriously doubt it would be efficient to train the model on that chip either. Don't get me wrong: Inferencing a 600k parameter model at 1mW is more efficient than probably anything else out there, so it's impressive and great for IoT and edge inference use-cases.

Edit: Seems I was wrong about training, it does do it, more details: https://youtu.be/QammxdPqP4g?t=08m57s

Good for active learning or fine-tuning at the edge, but it is to slow for model development in practice.

Kotlin:

Dexamethasone is orally available too but the general wisdom is that it's better used as a targeted injection. BPC-157 isn't well studied in humans so I wouldn't expect there to be any evidence either way.
I have no experience with webview based local apps and their accessibiility, nor did I ever look at Tauri. So to assess if it works, I'd have to check. I am a bit reluctant to recommend Qt because they have let me down in the past at times, but all in all, Qt is mostly accessible, even cross-platform.

Which brings me to your second question. Linux has a GUI accessibility API as well, the AT-SPI. GNOME Orca is the screen reader to use on Linux. If your distro configures things right by default, you should be able to access your Qt application with Orca as a screen reader on Linux.
