April 2018 sounds about right for the tech bubble peak - iirc softbank was still in full swing, everyone was "blitzscaling", it was peak exuberance. Not that the music stopped right after that, but even into 2019 things were starting to decline and the VC industry was getting slightly more conservative.
They are impossible to buy because Ford loses money on each one. The recent massive price increase doesn't help sales, and is critical to actually stemming the losses in short term. Ford in bald financial terms simply can't sell the F150 Lightning at scale, yet, and timeline to profitable at scale production is not clear at all.

Of the 13k that have been shipped, a very large percentage are registered in Michigan - Ford employees. The amount of F150 Lightnings that have made it through the retail channel to actual customers nationwide is still really low.

13k sales of any vehicle in a year is not fast by any definition appropriate for the US car industry, especially a truck! My point still stands - the F150 Lightning to date has not sold well, at all, loses a lot of money for Ford, and the 150,000 a year by Autumn 23 as Ford previously targeted seems a pipe dream.

They should. We have 6 different joycons and 2 have been repaired, the other 2 are showing the damn drift again.

Shipping them is a pain. This whole thing is a mess and the fact that they have to repair is the minimum

Joycons happen to also cost 100$ in Canada, so it's not something cheap.

I'm really bothered. So many years making videogames and they still can't get the analog stick right.
> Right, i don't think anyone is suggesting to use this as an operational data store.

Databricks, Snowflake, AWS, Azure, GCP, and numerous cloud-scale databases providers are 100% suggesting people do precisely that (even without realizing it, e.g. Snowflake). It's either critical to their business models or at least some added juice when people pay AWS/GCP $5 per TB scanned. That's why these shit tools and mentality keep showing up.
The SS death master file has been broken for a decade now. Institutions that need death information have to work with private vendors that aggregate data from a variety of sources.
The only one to blame for the invasion, or the fact that new countries are joining NATO is Putin, and his political colleagues.

Making it seem as if Finland is but a vassal for the U.S. for this move is disingenuous at best. After Georgia, Crimea, and now the rest of Ukraine, anyone would make such a decision. Out of their own will. In order to survive.
Thanks :) Right now, all the code it generates is in a single index.html so no backend.

Would love to try/test your backend thing.
Read the article. It can be a manufacturing by-product. It's likely that there are unknown sources producing it as a product.

If it was purposeful that would be trackable.
If you're interested in perception, like tracking & freespace detection or SLAM, then "Probabilistic Robotics" by Thrun is pretty good. For a more fundamental take on that stuff (but less robotics specific), "Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning" by Bishop is my favorite.
Which distros have you tried? I've been looking for someone who has spent time using both Pop!_OS and Linux Mint to see how they find they compare.
That is technically true, but historically false (C was created for Unix).

Taking the bare minimum of time to understand a problem before complaining about it isn’t toxic, it’s human decency that respects other people’s time. If I called out every problem with all the code I work with no one would ever get anything done, because everything is tradeoffs.

I don’t think you’re saying that you couldn’t explain why the light not working is a problem. No one said you have to know how to fix it.
That's you lucky. Our controllers started drifting after a few months of light usage.

They have a huge design flaw.

I still have to waste time packing and going to a post office (I have no car and never randomly end at a post office, so that's dedicated time).

And I won't have controllers for 2 weeks.
It doesn't matter whether it has nerves or not. That's honestly kind of irrelevant. What matters is if the model is pulled to model those reactions like is the case with LLMs.

Look at how Bing does a good job of simulating somebody becoming belligerent under circumstances where somebody really would become belligerent. It's not dangerous only because the actions Bing can perform are currently limited. Whether it has literal nerves or not is irrelevant. The potential consequences are no less material.

We also don't understand qualia enough to make the definite statements you seem to be making
Seems like a great opportunity to put a LLM interface in front of this report so readers and query it...
Skeptical you should be, but I’m optimistic. We have papers showing that knowledge in these models can be edited and deleted. Sam Altman makes the point that too much compute is being spent on using the LLM as a database.

Thinking about how few things any of these CUIs need to know about, I’m optimistic that we can distill them down to a workable size while maintaining the LLM magic.

“Fridge, what is the meaning of life?”

‘Sorry, I don’t know about that. Ask me something about what’s in your fridge.’

“Okay how many eggs do I have.”

“I see 3 eggs.”

When I can have that conversation by proxy through my phone’s onboard CUI while at the store, I’m going to get a lot of value out of that.
> Decidedly not hiding behind the coat-tails of the US- in fact the US involvement, at least in political circles, is generally seen as a net-negative.

Too bad their funding didn't match that rhetoric until after Russia was already invading Ukraine. It'll be years yet before Germany's military will be up to snuff, and outside of France, the UK, and Poland, most of the NATO armies would struggle if they encountered any resistance on-par with what the Russians are putting out.

Nor are their logistics and production capable of keeping up w/ the high-intensity peer/near-peer fight that we're seeing in UKR.
There's already a comment from ed_balls with the 2019 data.
I quite love the four-way KVM switch I use on my desk. One trackball, one mechanical keyboard, hooked up to four laptops (or occasionally a raspberry pi or two.) Couple keystrokes to switch computers, so I can bounce back and forth easily.
I'm very into TinyML - not because of IoT but because small and fast models work well in (clientside) webpages, in realtime systems and pretty much everywhere. All while consuming less resources, which should be celebrated. Also, it's more democratic - anyone can compete in this field, supercomputer not needed.

IMO, what is needed is a larger focus on resource consumption in competitions, benchmarks and rankings. For example, I like that you can rank some lists on paperswithcode by number of parameters [1].

AI and Alarmism
The scale of the problem is totally different. I've used a bunch of Xbox controllers that never had this issue, but my JoyCons developed it almost immediately.
The word “mile” comes from Latin “mille passus”, one thousand paces.

The only thing that really matters about Kaliningrad is the (very probable) nukes that are there.
I wonder if it is old appliances, air conditioners, etc being scrapped, but without processing the refrigerants?

Some appliances could be 30 years old?

Android DOES count. Linux is a kernel. Android uses the Linux kernel. Android wouldn't count as GNU/Linux.
Correct, our eyes have cells that respond to certain wavelengths ("blue light") and send signals through nerves to the brain, but those nerves aren't attached to the visual cortex, they are attached elsewhere. And that's why "blue light" inhibits sleep. ...I wish I could provide a citation, these details are something I just heard late last week...
How well do we understand chemical evolution in landfills? Superfund sites? Maybe nobody is making it and it’s happening anyway.

Reasons I buy vinyl:

1. It's a different listening experience than the "song shuffle on Spotify" that dominates now. It's more a more active and focused listening experience. You put an album on to listen to that album from start to finish.

2. I want to support musicians by buying their albums. However I dont like buying digital music because it doesnt have the permanence a physical object has. I dont like spending money on what's basically ctrl-c ctrl-v files onto my hard drive. CD's are too flimsy. Vinyl has heft.

3. I'm not into the album art that much but a lot of my guests are and like to thumb through my records and look at the art.

4. I'm a hipster contrarian. When vinyl started to get too popular I started buying cassettes too
>Could you show your work? Some steps are clearly missing between the premise and the conclusion

Life expectancy is dropping in the US according to official studies you can easily find. It is now lower than China. Obesity, immunological diseases, and cancer have also been rising over the decades. I am not going to pin anything to specific causes as that will spur a debate too long for my attention. IMO the system is generally failing us. Without your health, you have nothing. It is too important for me to completely trust to others especially with how our system is currently incentivized.
I try to write informative comments. That said, 99% of the comments I see are

* Useless, like "locks the mutex" before a mutex.lock().

* Contrary to the code, like "This parameter contains the proc name without the instance" and then the parameter does contain the instance.

* Dubious, like it's not obvious what the comment means nor if what you are doing follows the comment or not.

Worst thing is when the code and the comment contradict and there's no good reason to trust one over the other in what the code should do (never go to sea with two chronometers).

I suppose it depends on the codebase you are working on. If it's your own code the likelihood of you agreeing with the comment increases, ofc.
Bit extreme maybe! But I didn't want to make too large groupings.
Ah, I had audio off! :)
Right off the bat this article misunderstands the research on which it bases its advice about the six factors that cause burnout:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/246546370_Making_a_...

I decided to take some time to read that research and that's not at all what the research says.

What the research says is that it needs to first identify what exactly is meant by burnout, how can one know if someone is burned out? The research says that there are six factors that correlate with burnout, but not that those factors cause burnout.

A burned out worker will feel overworked, will feel like they're being treated unfairly, like things are unfair, that they aren't being paid enough etc etc...

That does not necessarily mean that they are being overworked, that they are being treated unfairly, that they aren't being paid the market rate for their job title. It could mean that, but that's not the purpose of the research cited and it's a gross misunderstanding of it.

> didn't get there by using the power of law

NIMBYism is the power of law. Mortgage interest deduction is the power of law. Without either, that million dollars of wealth, much of it in the home, would be a lot less.
Assuming the global monitoring can track the source (if it was intentional or not), is not based on information from the article.

> This is what happened a few years ago, when researchers detected high levels of CFC-11 in the atmosphere2, and traced them to eastern China3. They deduced the source on the basis of readings from monitoring stations in South Korea and Japan, reporting it in May 2019, and afterwards, levels began to fall. Scientists got somewhat lucky with CFC-11: monitoring stations equipped to detect that particular chemical happened to be located relatively close to the source.

Maybe we just need to be lucky again?
Here's an interesting brain glitch. I read the article but my mind had been primed by the title. The article never came out and overtly said that a layoff had occurred, so my brain kept interpreting it through the lens of the title.

Even as I read it, the article seemed odd and not to make complete sense to me -- because my dumb monkey brain was trying hard to interpret it in a way that agreed with the title.

However, your comment cleared all that fog away instantly.
There’s an odd dynamic in the market right now. In addition to layoffs, people who are subject to RTO are trying to find jobs at remote employers, so there’s an abnormally high number of already-employed folks on the job hunt right now. Not to mention all the juniors having trouble finding work at the moment.

Meanwhile remote employers are seeing less employee turnover, so don’t need to do much hiring, especially since many grew headcount considerably in 2021/2022. Which means many of those people looking for remote jobs aren’t finding a lot of success. (We’re remote and hiring for backfills only right now, not that there are many of those - and I suspect a lot of other companies are in the same spot.)

Remote roles are likely over-represented on HN, so if there are a lot of candidates chasing those roles, you’d expect a lot of growth in “who wants to be hired” posts.

I’d expect this dynamic to shift in the back half of the year. People are finding out about promotions and comp changes around this time and many will be disappointed. This will likely cause a lot of people sitting tight at remote companies to get back on the market. Some will find roles elsewhere, creating more backfills and more hiring.

Not to mention that there’s a glut of late-stage companies seeking to IPO when the IPO market reopens, likely later this year or early next. When companies IPO they usually hire a lot beforehand to tighten up processes, then do even more hiring a few months later as existing employees get their exits and decide to move on or take a break.

So the medium/long term outlook is still positive, at least.
Should I Delete TikTok from My Phone?
Your post includes some good commentary identifying issues with the educational system, specifically about fostering a healthy, effective learning environment as well as commentary about mis-allocating resources. However, it also includes lots of specific blaming and accusations which, to me, distracted from the helpful elements.

I'm curious if you think the best path forward would be to keep pushing for the federal government to do better with education, or if it would be better to empower more local entities to improve. This could be state, county, or city governments, or even private school systems.
I'm surprised this isn't measured more frequently after the CFC crisis we had back in the day. Also, very puzzling that they have different theories for different CFC's... surprising to have independent trends causing this?
yes, so true. as an avid Emacs user, still, I love vi for being available everywhere and impressing people on production machines to adjust config files. somehow the muscle memory of my teenage years is still there. a weapon for a more noble age.
> The promise of "agile" is, IIRC, faster turnaround and iterative development.

The promise of agile is working software.

Iterative development is a how, not a what.
The article implies something different: that it was lucky they were so easily able to track the first CFC-11 incidents:

> Scientists got somewhat lucky with CFC-11: monitoring stations equipped to detect that particular chemical happened to be located relatively close to the source.
It’s a bit more nuanced, watch this video in spare time https://youtu.be/tzLS4O7YaUg
The actual report doesn't say lost or degraded, but rather 'exposed to automation', and right after that statement, they also mention the historical trend of automation has been moving people around:

>The good news is that worker displacement from automation has historically been offset by creation of new jobs, and the emergence of new occupations following technological innovations accounts for the vast majority of long-run employment growth.

This article is a misrepresentation of Goldman's analysis.
Article's points shouldn't be taken as seriously as the general message: be just as aware of the invisible, negative forces that hinder employees as you are of the positive forces which stellar employees bring. Yin and yang.

Important to note that there are also 10x environments that make everyone in them 10x as effective.

I stand corrected! Thanks for posting, as I had a limited experience and was happy that most of my applications fell into the first category below:

I just tested it out and some applications like GIMP and INKSCAPE appear as a result and when you click on it, it has a drop-down in which you can choose between the flatpak and deb version. Unfortunately the flatpak is the default choice, so many people would probably never even know about the alternative choice.

Other applications a clearly different, and it's not clear what you are getting. Like VLC.

Then you have some like BATTLE FOR WESNOTH that shows two results. One of the two (if you activate it) has the drop-down, but both choices are flatpaks. The other result is apparently NOT a flatpak, but not clear in what it is.

I now see I have more flatpaks than I believed I had. They are working nicely at least, the ones I am using.

A just question. How much due digilence was done on SBF / FTX by The New-York Times and by the VCs who poured hundreds of millions into a pure fraud?
Why is it so easy to spot the right winger these days?

Oh that's right, it's because you all parrot the same nonsense.

The valuable materials in EV batteries don't get used up - they're still in the battery, and can be recycled. We haven't figured out the particulars, but there's no reason why it can't be done. In fact, the biggest issue that battery recyclers are facing right now is a lack of batteries to recycle.

Stop swallowing propaganda wholesale. Start thinking for yourself.
What I would pay for is the exact opposite of this.

I am not looking forward to being deluged by pages and pages of AI generated content that will surely be sent out by MBA types looking to make a name for themselves as visionaries and flooding my inbox.

Which the US would have been willing to give... if they didn't cozy up to the Russians for S-300 and S-400s.

They also wanted F-35s, not just F-16s. That's not one to sell unless you're 100% confident they won't copy it for their own domestic production, or sell it to, say, the Russians. And modern Turkey is looking a little shaky in that regard (no, not an earthquake joke).

You should not rewrite something that works, only when you need to make larger changes, even if the guy who wrote the program is still there you might want to rewrite from scratch if the requirements change, like you now need to handle 100x more traffic and need to have something with better performance, or scaled out.
The issue with Joycons is so much more pronounced. I used the same 360 controller with my PC for about a decade with no issues. The Series x controller I’ve used since then is fine.

My joycons were drifting less than a year after I bought the switch.

Mice are not immune to failure and I have had mice fail on me. Have you been using the same mouse for 20+ years? My favorite one (Saitek Cyborg RAT7) died at the year mark and I won’t buy another one from them for fear of the same thing but it was adjustable in every dimension and as a result was the most comfortable mouse for my merry paws.
We have webex and Teams at work. Neither one of them are great but unless I'm missing something Teams lacked a precheck feature where I can test my Mic before actually joining the meeting which is easily the main reason I despise it. Teams also occasionally just refuses to work with part of my audio setup until I rejoin so it also the one that I need the precheck for most.
The highway is already built. The voters of Phoenix voted decades ago to pay the sales tax to build it. Right now, it's mostly a road to nowhere which is why TSMC needs a new interchange.

This isn't even a new tax. It's a tax that has been in place for 40 years and has paid for pretty much every freeway mile and light rail track in the area. The tax expires in 2025 and this is a debate over renewing it. If it fails, Phoenix will be Los Angeles with "rush hour" lasting all day in another 10 years.
100,000 dead annually from using would like to have a word. 70k of those are fentanyl by the way. Victimless though right? All those people could quit any time they want, right?
I think maybe you're overextrapolating here. Classes are meant to hold state. If you have a bunch of related state, wrapping it up in a class has been a common use of classes even before `dataclass` existed.

What the talk is discussing is the creation of classes for wrapping related _functionality_, sans state. The class isn't really necessary at that point, so you should just create a module with functions instead of a class.

Even if you do need your related functionality to reference some common state, you still might not need a class, because modules themselves are objects and can hold state.

The point of the talk is not to dissuade you from _ever_ using classes, it's to make you think more judiciouly about adding new classes you probably don't need. Python isn't Java, and you dont need everything to be a class.
I'm in genuine shock that this obvious sarcasm needed an edit to add the /s
