What kind of failure modes are you factoring for when a giant high tensile spring might fail/ lose containment? There is an enormous amount of energy being stored in this concept?
This is not my experience either personally, or with my 70yo father in law, or employees all running Linux distros. The experience is excellent apart from battery life. My son who games on Windows hates its constant random 100% CPU usage and compulsory reboots.
The response showed the same server for at least two of the responses I described, but that's a good point. The edge server may have been querying different servers with different cached values or uncached values.
As I mentioned in my previous, it really depends on your usecase.

In my usecase, it's extremely secure.

But, I'll be back after 5 to 10 years, and if I'm still using Windows 7, and if I remember you, I'll reply to you again, letting you know how well it's been going for me.
>Nobody was happy with the value erasure.

On the other hand a fuckton of value has been irrevocably erased - entire ed tech sector isn't coming back to pre crackdown levels. If anything CCP hasn shown little regard for crippling soft tech since it will redirect talent towards strategic hard tech where job and wages have been booming. Baba getting proper rectification if it incentivizes future talent to reorient towards SMIC seems to be part of the plan.

Lot of confusion here. UTC is a time standard, not a particular time zone. An instant written down in, say, the Pacific Standard Time Zone can be a UTC-scaled time.

An example of non-UTC time is TAI, which is International Atomic Time. The difference is that UTC has leap seconds to deal with changes in the rate of rotation of the earth, while TAI marches on without any discontinuities.

So for a date to be “in UTC” really just means it uses the leap seconds published by IERS. This article says “integers in UTC” which is a little ambiguous, but probably means “integer UTC seconds since the Unix Epoch.”
> Please don't imply that someone of Indian descent can never be considered a Westerner.

He is not merely "of Indian descent" but was born and raised in India and is still an Indian national. The story in question is from a time when he had not even left India. Suggesting that this piece is from a "Western writer" is insulting to the author, his background, and experiences. By the measure you propose, a Caucasian born and raised in America, who moved to India later in life and wrote about experiences while living in America, should be referred to as an "Eastern writer".

Abstract

The wave nature of light is revealed by diffraction from physical structures. We report a time-
domain version of the classic Young’s double-slit experiment: a beam of light twice gated in
time produces an interference in the frequency spectrum. The 'time slits', narrow enough to
produce diffraction at optical frequencies, are generated from a thin film of Indium-Tin-Oxide
illuminated with high-power infrared pulses, inducing a fast reflectivity rise, followed by a
slower decay. Separation between the time slits determines the period of oscillations in the
frequency spectrum, while the decay of fringe visibility in frequency reveals the shape of the
time slits. Here we find a surprise: many more oscillations are visible than expected from
existing theory, implying a rise time for the leading edge of around 1-10 fs, approaching an
optical cycle of 4.4 fs. This is over an order of magnitude faster than the width of the pump and
can be inferred from the decay of the frequency oscillations.

...

In conclusion, we report a direct observation of spectral oscillations, at optical frequencies,
resulting from double-slit time diffraction, the temporal analogue of the Young’s slits
experiment. The measurements show a clear inverse proportionality between the oscillation
period and the time slit separation. These oscillations reveal a 1-10 fs temporal dynamics of
the ITO/Au bilayer, much faster than previously thought and beyond the adiabatic and linear
intensity dependence assumed so far in most theoretical models (10)(11),(17), calling for a
new fundamental understanding of such ultrafast non-equilibrium responses. The observation
of temporal Young’s double-slit diffraction paves the way for optical realizations of time-
varying metamaterials, promising enhanced wave functionalities such as nonreciprocity (18),
new forms of gain (19)(20), time reversal (21)(22) and optical Floquet topology (23)(24).
Double-slit time diffraction could be extended to other wave domains, e.g. matter waves (6),
optomechanics (25) and acoustics (26)(27), electronics (28), and spintronics (29), with
applications for pulse shaping, signal processing and neuromorphic computation. Finally, the
visibility of the oscillations can be used to measure the phase coherence of the wave
interacting with it, similarly to matter-wave interferometers (6).

They already have been. It's not hard at all to get an Adderall prescription. Just Google "ADHD symptoms" (the main one being trouble focusing) then go to your doctor and tell them you have those.
I got that thunderbolt dock for my work MacBook, and now that I own a steam deck I wish I had gotten a USBC hub instead. The dock is great, just doesn’t work with the steam deck, so I can’t swap devices quickly.
As an external observer, I don't square the two different conclusions in your first statement: "equate wealth with ability", "everybody is a temporarily embarrassed millionaire".

There is a far stronger underpinning to the American attitude to wealth: It's not "equate wealth with ability", it's more "equate wealth with virtue and morality" - that the owners of wealth "did something right" generally has nothing to do with ability. Even the founders of Hewlett-Packard aren't remembered for their technological advances but for the "HP Way", a marker of virtue rather than business acumen.

The absolute veneration of "hard work" as a marker of success over connections/which hoo-ha you accidentally fell out of is rarely raised, despite their being overwhelming evidence that to be successfull in the US, you have to be born on 3rd base.

When it comes down to it, it should be absolutely no surprise that these billionaires with feet of clay rarely live up to the image that is built for them by the fanboys. Musk's family had a history of bizarre, he has simply not fallen far from the tree.
For what it’s worth mice like the Mxmaster have a usb-c charging port in the sensible location and can be used while being charged. They also give you pretty fair warning before they die.
>So when the US FDA is shilling for obesity drugs, says that being obese isn’t a lifestyle problem but is purely genetic

The FDA has never claimed obesity is purely genetic and it's own guidelines state multiple factors for obesity and stringent guidelines for the approval of drugs that target specific genetic disorders.

>Medical schools are lowering/removing certain standards for admission under the guise of ‘equity’

This doesn't seem true at all, and seems like an extension of the "woke" boogeyman we see in undergrad.

The problem with this kind of thinking is it's hard to assign anysort of motivation for these actions without sounding cartoonish. The FDA wants to say obesity is a purely genetic for what reason? Who is enriched when the FDA says this? Does the FDA get some kickback every time there's a new obese person?

>State the problem, state it clearly. Don’t shift blame around to invisible boogeymen.

The for-profit medical system has created a two-tier treatment system that is incentivized to protect profits over providing adequate care. This includes both providing poor treatment to those who cannot pay as well as providing ineffective treatment to wealthier americans in order to sell more expensive, patented drugs. Any political action to change this system is effectively stonewalled due to "invisible boogeymen" who all happen to have the same political interests in keeping current profitable system and are able to easily buy politicians to prevent any radical change from going through. The incentive is clear - to protect profit margins.

Sadly, not much. The Datahands[1] are long gone. The keyboards I bought for their n-key rollover for Plover[2] are there but I can’t stenography. The Cykey chording keyboard[3] gone I think. The software I made to use a normal keyboard as chording input like that, unused. https://talonvoice.com/ free edition couldn’t make any sense of my accent I think. The webcam from when multitouch was new and could be done in software with the shadows of your hand on paper and camera, I still have but don’t use. The Remarkable tablet and pen mostly unused. Going back a lot further the infra red receiver and software to use a standard TV style remote control, nope.

I never got the Griffin PowerMate or the Leap motion or the new LED button boards aimed at streamers.

Just AutoHotkey survives. And it’s sad, computers could be so much more but I guess I don’t have much use for anything else.

UTC is non-unique because of leap seconds, so TAI + lat + long + altitude is actually required.

I work on software for astronomy, and that quadruplet is what’s used to describe an observing location. You can actually get a little in trouble because of changes in the shape of the earth over time, so latitude and longitude and altitude need to be treated as time-dependent values, which matters once you are accounting for relativistic effects.

I feel like this sort of broad-brush can be applied to almost all communities larger than a trivial size. Guns, cars, collectibles.

There are pockets of elitism where people are comfortable in their insular group and use it as a status symbol. But there are plenty of welcoming subgroups; it's just that they may take a little digging.

For keyboards, RGBKB, customMK, and Zenclack have been some of my favorite little Discord communities.
This looks similar to the WebGPT paper, is that referenced in any of langchain or haystack's publications?

Introducing the mechanism of internal thought is very interesting, I wonder if there's a way to make it implicit in the model's architecture.
This isn't standalone, and doesn't have press-for-mute, but the DasKeyboard 4 Pro has a nice, large aluminum volume knob (and a separate mute button near it). Works perfectly in Linux, along with the "sleep" button. It's part of the keyboard so it's close to your hands and doesn't have any separate cabling.
Even if you see the same response IP from your ISPs DNS server, you're still (almost definitely) hitting one of many load balanced (in some way) servers on your ISPs side.

Hello, I have 2 years of experience as a Fullstack software engineer. I worked at a startup, where I created systems for both external and internal clients. I made use of clean architecture and hexagonal architecture. I created several unit tests. I did work related to QA. I took care of systems maintenance, improvement. I worked with agile methodologies like Scrum and Kanban. I worked a lot on my soft skills.
I think it is more Surveillance as a Service that Feedly is offering. You can have a problem with SaaS, but the title is wrong. Can we change it to something more accurate?
I love ideas like this. I used to sail a bit in school vacations when I was young and feeling the raw power of the wind in your hands really drives home how practical it is to use wind. For thousands of years this is how people traveled the world. Most of the modern world was mapped and discovered long before steam power was invented. Using sail boats almost exclusively.

Of course steam power and later combustion engines replaced wind in the last 150 years or so. However a few things have changed since then that makes concepts like this viable again and worth exploring.

1) Material science has progressed, a lot. A modern wind foil compared to a canvas sail from a few centuries ago is not a fair comparison. Modern sail boats vastly out perform anything that was common before steam boats showed up. Lighter, faster, cheaper, etc.

2) Sail boats used to require a lot of people to operate them. Modern sail boats can be operated by a lot less people and solutions like this could feasibly be used on autonomous ships even. Automation and fine control assisted by lots of sensors and actuators are a game changer.

3) Before steam boats, navigation was primitive and we had no reliable way to predict weather. Ships would just drift out on the open ocean for weeks and journeys could take months. These days we have satellites. We know weather patterns and navigation is a solved problem. Also we've mapped ocean currents. This makes sailing a lot more predictable than it used to be.
They all scale if somebody goes and scale them up.
Just when you think Nvidia will go down something happens that changes it. These days unless you were into gaming or a machine learning dev the integrated graphics were good enough. But now first time in a long time I am interested in getting a gpu for running some of these chatbots locally.

I don't think that is fair. I don't think he has pushed a culture of racism but one of rapid growth. That rapid growth has allowed racism to grow unchecked, and that is a failure of management at the highest level. But, to say that is the same as joining the klan goes beyond hyperbole.
> given cocaine's continued and greater penetration despite the fact it's a highly controlled schedule 2 drug.

Not to take the wind out of your sails but adderall is also schedule II.
I have no sailing or nautical or any relevant experience, so apologies if this is obvious, but what keeps the sail from getting blown off the ship?

My understanding is that the container is lifted and placed on top of a typical container vessel. And containers do fall off ships from time to time. Adding a very large sail to the container makes it easier to blow off. Is whatever the standard mechanism is for securing containers to ships sufficient here?
That sort of assumes there's one time zone that's being used per spacetime coordinate, which isn't guaranteed. You can get political situations where de facto and de jure time diverge, or where different authorities nominally in charge of the time in a place disagree.

Lebanon seems to have experienced exactly this recently:

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-65079574

It does unambiguously give you a spacetime coordinate (useful) but it doesn't unambiguously tell you what local time you should use for an occurrence, and the answer would really depend on who was asking.
if Tesla's management was all white it would certainly play into the claim that Tesla is racist. However I did misread the story.

Puma Browser | Remote | Engineering (iOS, Android) & Growth | $75-150k base + generous equity | join.puma.gg

Hi all, I’m Yuriy, founder of Puma Browser. I've previously worked in developer relations at Cloudant (YC S08), Meteor (YC S11), Parse (YC S11), and explored AI/ML (computer vision for self-driving cars) before diving deep into crypto. I view crypto as primarily a developer platform and an experiment in building an open financial system, which unfortunately comes with politics, hype, and price rollercoasters.

We started with the idea of a privacy-first browser with built-in micropayments (via the Interledger Protocol) and have since added support for identity (HNS, ENS; Unstoppable Domains in testing) and storage (IPFS; Arweave in testing). Our next steps include wallets for main chains and experiments with GPT/LLMs and gaming.

We recently surpassed 500k downloads and are excited to grow our team. Our backers include Protocol Labs, Hard Yaka, Shima Capital, Fenbushi, Don Ho (Orange DAO, Quantstamp), Sridhar Ramaswamy (Neeva, Greylock), Jason Warner (ex-GitHub CTO, VP Eng Heroku & Canonical), Illia Polosukhin (NEAR Protocol) and many more.

Our Values:

• We value Optimism, Curiosity, Kindness, and Grit.

• We’re remote-first.

• Only one recurring weekly meeting to maximize state of flow.

• We’re careful with growth and never had to do layoffs.

Open Roles:

- iOS Engineer
- Android Engineer
- Head of Memes & Growth

How to Apply:

Visit join.puma.gg or email your application to careers+hn@pumabrowser.com.

We also appreciate your thoughts on which crypto or GPT features we should build next. Cheers!
Worth pointing out here that nobody is planning to do large scale 12-hour storage with lithium ion batteries.

Even leaving out better battery chemistries for the moment, you can use pumped hydro (even with seawater - some of the UAE’s highest mountains are near the coast) and thermal storage (you might think you don’t need it in such a hot place but you’ve still got to bake bread etc etc).
Sure, but there's so much open, empty, and underutilized space. With some more aggressive building and well implemented transit policy, we could really fit a lot more people into the area without creating a decrease in quality of life. Not even like a huge amount of people, like 10% more.
There is some major outage going on, but it isn't the FAA. 1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1, and 9.9.9.9 are suddenly unreachable from my part of the planet. 8.8.8.8 is, otherwise I wouldn't be able to post this. Many WWW sites that I know are behind CloudFlare are timing out. These aren't DNS issues. These are connectivity issues. The actual DNS servers themselves aren't reachable.
> calls “eating the frog”

Popularized by Brian Tracy with the book "Eat that Frog - Stop procrastinating and get more done in less time",

the idea is attributed to Mark Twain there, but was actually recorded by Nicolas Chamfort: "One should eat a frog every morning, to find the rest of the day less disgusting, if you have to spend it in the world". The translation from the French tradition of the "nausea" to pragmatist Union America, where it came to mean "do the hardest first as a strategy", fits.

Battery adds significant weight. The mxMaster weights almost 50% more (141g vs 97g) than the wired mouse I use (Zowie EC1, NOT a small mouse, it's like the glorious old MS Intellimouse)... and the 97g is counting the cable.

Also, from my experience USB-C likes to giggle itself loose under really energetic movement.

I agree considering the responses I'm seeing from the one working server.

If I had to guess randomly at a cause, I would speculate that all their nameservers besides 155.178.199.16 are behind a load balancer that uses checking for IN A faa.gov as a health check and someone deleted that record, so, all servers fell out of the load balancer.

50c says that their method of propagating new records relies on their DNS working so someone is having a fun night fixing that.
