I do own an individual house in Tokyo and don't have, need or want a car, so it is definitely possible when the society wants it and politics allows it.
They don't care about meeting an audience, that's not the reason they use twitter; they create content for fun and for people who are interested to seek it out.

If you offered them a flat "we'll force 10,000 people to see your tweets specifically for just $5" they still wouldn't take it because that's not what they care about or what they are trying to do.

They are users of twitter just as much as they are creators and having their timeline flooded with the kind of content the new bluecheck users create has clearly given them a far worse experience, because the kind of people that would generally pay for the benefits your ascribe are generally the kind of people that these users don't care to interact with at all.
they get a scary security warning that prevents them from running it.

The huge difference is that's only a warning, and not a cryptographically locked-down system unlike Apple's.
PineTime looks like a fantastic product and if it supported GPS it would probably be the one that I purchase.

I've also seen this one mentioned in my research but would love to hear from anyone who's used it: https://banglejs.com/

Thanks for the InfiniTime links, I'll check that out.
I’m very impressed by the level of technical detail in this post.

I’m somewhat surprised garmin made their own language for apps but considering the low power processors they target was their any other options?
I'd be very careful with this - I've experimented with this extensively and GPT-4 gets some things horribly, horribly wrong (at least for Mandarin Chinese).

I think the best of both worlds is pairing GPT-4 with human curation (that's what I'm doing!)
> Can anyone ELI5 what it is in practice? What are some of the ideas that allows one to débrouiller, etc... ?

Broadly speaking, it refers to one's capability of being smart in a "handy man" field.

Your tire is flat and you have nothing to fix it? Take a toothpick and hot glue. That's system D.

You have a bottle of wine but nothing to open it? Put the bottom in your shoe and rub it against the wall. That's system D.

Nowadays you can use *system D" for any subject where you demonstrate the capability to overcome problems not using "book" solutions.

The term got it's roots during and after the war in France, where you had to be able to find these kind of solutions in a country where everything was broken.
Wow, I live pretty close to Downey and not far from Long Beach. Sounds like someone really screwed something up.
Poly would get lots of crackers.
Also, even if a person can clearly explain the decisions taken by his teammates and tell the process followed, outcome measured, the person understand the stuff. That is a good indicator to move forward for an interview IMO. What do you think?

Linear regulators also have a start-up time, and its usually somewhere in the datasheet. All feedback loops have some kind of settling response time depending on the bandwidth of the loop, and you'll see that behavior both on start-up and if there's any kind of disturbance, like the load changing.
> A high school student today might be shocked to see the sort of complexity third- and fourth-graders in prior generations used to contend with for basic operations

Really? The classic multiplication algorithm is completely mechanistic. You just need to learn the multiplication table and then even a trained monkey can do it.

Then once a student learns and practices the mechanistic way, you can easily explain the math that lays beyond it. The inverse way doesn't really work.

I'm working with high-school students, and I'm already seeing the effects of people who can explain me how the algorithm works, but then struggle to actually multiply even 3-digit numbers.

Oh, and the lattice multiplication is the worst. It completely obscures the math behind it.
The question isn’t whether you agree with him, the question is whether the advertisers agree with Elon.

Even more fun fact: 9 Thermidor Year II is also when Robespierre was ousted and his reign of terror ceased. He would be executed the next day.

This Republican calendar is also a source of headaches for students studying the French Revolution because while it didn’t stick, it stuck around long enough to matter and for historians to need to deal with it in primary sources.
> Is there energy in an electric field? If so it must be signed or it wouldn't cancel out.

The energy contained in the electromagnetic field is nonnegative: as I understand it, within a given volume, it's simply the sum of the photon energy of all of the photons.

Meanwhile, electrons and positrons exist in their own particle field, and have both positive mass energy and nonnegative kinetic energy. When an electron and positron annihilate and produce photons, they convert their combined mass energy into kinetic energy in the photons. The only thing that gets "canceled out" is the positive and negative electric charge.

My read from the page was that this term is coupled with a temporal component - the need to think effectively on your feet. Rapidly.

Unfortunately, that's not me. I'm a sit and ruminate kind of person. Oh well, no System D for me.
I pulled my number off full time Amazon driving, vehicle provided, which is about $20/hr here. Most low skill jobs in my area are around $12-$17 an hour. Eleven or below is there, but rare. We're probably a slightly more happening town than Chattanooga though.

But even so 30K is still a huge difference from having to scrap for food, or make a computer from spare parts. Changed post from $40K to $30K.
If money is no object, there are some interesting chips out there. The LTC3335 chip[0] is a buck-boost that claims to have a 680nA Iq. Not as low as the TPS7A02, but it looks like it could make up for that in efficiency if your design does anything other than sleep.

Yes this framing makes more sense, especially since many get stuck up on the definition of a monopoly when that doesn't quite keep up with new tactics being utilized (ie keeping competition going but only superficially).
It’s consistent with Elon’s behavior to date.
Love it. Played through chapter 10 without even stopping.

One complaint. The weight vs weight_kg. In the text for the task, it just references weight. But the column name is named weight_kg. This caused me to error out and scratch my head more than once.
Call me paranoid, but I see it as a slippery slope. And for most users that security warning is as good as a cryptographic lockdown anyways.
Ah so I must have mistaken the species. I've had a good chunk bitten out of my lower leg where the shinbone sits right below the skin and it took forever to heal. The locals jokingly called them the Canadian Airforce.

It’s a lot simpler than that. Giving your product away shouldn’t be a “gotcha”. Nobody gets trolled with a free Netflix subscription.

Every time someone justifies something as being for "security", the old Franklin quote comes to mind. I know this wasn't the context he intended, but it's certainly quite appropriate.
> Many Americans seem to think the US is somehow unique by having states, but it is far from uncommon. Invoking it to explain America's unusual features only makes sense when you don't know that many other countries have similar systems.

I was aware of this; there's no need to be patronizing. The point I was making was that the American states are as distinct from one another as many countries are, particularly in the application of the death penalty.

> In both India and Canada criminal law is a federal responsibility, so criminal law is the same across all the states.

So you acknowledge that in the specific context we were discussing, the US system is different from those countries after all.

The minimum wage is beneficial because employers tend to have more leverage than employees in the relationship. It's actually similar to the leverage Apple has over its users. And they've used that leverage to control what apps people are allowed to use. So the EU forcing Apple to let users install apps serves a similar purpose as the minimum wage - both are curtailing potential abuses against a group of people with little power in their situation.
Good point and the industry at large is trying to find solution to these. In very near future, we would need to assume that the candidate will use ChatGPT like tools to their advantage and we will know they will have that tool while they work. Maybe we would eventually move towards more of "submit a video explaining it" kind of mode where we can apply AI on the transcript. Not sure if that is a good experience for candidates or not. In our current solution the candidate doesn't have access to the evaluation criteria, so unless the candidates understand the facets of the question, it will be hard to be scored anything more than 5.

We also have a lot of AI content detector tools and then there are techniques to avoid them, so the AI Hide-and-Seek will continue for a while I believe before a regulation to disclose AI generated content will come up.

But we certainly need something better than recruiters looking at a resume for 3 seconds and doing Ctrl+F before deciding whether to move forward for an interview.
Phoenix gets 1.50" or 38 mm of rain per year. Kuwait City gets double that.

It's Phoenix: it's hot as hell and the insolation is crazy such that it's optimal for solar deployments. If you don't water your grass daily when it's over 90 F / 32 C, then it will die. That's a shit ton of water for a decoration.

Not long ago I was living proof that you could live in Mexico for 5 years, be fluent in reading/writing Spanish, yet be unable to understand native speakers.

I could understand deliberately slow Spanish like "Español con Juan" (https://www.youtube.com/@espanolconjuan) but immersion did nothing for me because I just don't have the personality to make it matter. I would have done better using Italki or whatever from anywhere in the world.

Even my Mexican friends and Mexican girlfriends spoke English because, well, that's how I met them. Speaking in Spanish would last about 1 minute until we transitioned back to English because it was more effective.

Finally, I don't get the problem with Duolingo not teaching you how to speak. I learned how to read and write with Duolingo which is useful on its own. Now you can read articles and books in Spanish and at least partake in the culture. Duolingo just doesn't compete with, say, Zoom conversations because the latter is 1000x the effort.

Yet on HN people talk about Duolingo as if people would be spending their Duolingo time chatting to Spanish speakers if Duolingo didn't exist. Nah, they'd be doom scrolling.

Let's refine this statement, there's plenty of land and housing, but not enough near the jobs or attractions that middle and upper class desire or that the lower class can afford, who provide support for the middle and upper class.
This paragraph caught my eye -

> I think Object-Oriented Programming was an important advance over procedural programming, which is what we had been doing, but we’re stuck. We’re supposed to change paradigms every generation, and we haven’t. So we’re way behind now. Object-Oriented Programming hit the mainstream in 1980. We’re in the 2020s and we’re still there. We should have moved on.
Cuba’s Unfinished Nuclear Power Station
I built all the low voltage MCU based electronics for my team's solar race cars in college. Power efficiency is a huge deal for a solar powered race car. One of the first pieces I designed was a standalone switching regulator PCB with a 3 pin interface, then made many dozens of them. I then used them in all of my other boards.

Years later after I graduated and left the team, I heard that the folk that took over went through and replaced all the switching regulators with linear ones. I asked them why, and they said someone told them the quiescent draw was lower for linear regulators. I asked them if it was really worth the significantly reduced efficiency dropping from 12V to 3.3V, and they didn't seem to understand what I was talking about. Oops!
After 2008 something that always sticks in my mind was nobody puts where they worked on their gravestone.

> only instead of partitioning by powers of two they partition by decimal digits (e.g. 4 * 56 --> 4 * 50 + 4 * 6).

When I was in secondary school we called this “factoring.” Distributivity is great.
> financial assistance

Schools include loans in that financial assistance category. So sure most revive “assistance” but that bill comes due. VT under grads can’t actually come up with that kind of money thus the loans. ~30k of loans * 4 years = 120K which isn’t extreme for undergraduate, but ignores interest which will greatly compound if someone seeks further education.

Thus why actual college affordability is important rather than just loans. Failing to become a doctor is financial suicide for most people in the US. Which plays a huge role in our ruinous healthcare costs.
If I live in my country I need my physical goods to be my country with me. If my country becomes unbearably controlling they can restrict imports so that I can only buy and import foreign goods if I can prove I paid for them in my country's official country earned in the official economy.

The existence of other countries does give me the option of emigrating from my country if there is a less controlling country that will allow me in.
One thing that is missing from his list is diet.

Not sure what you eat, but if you told me you were eating fresh fruits and fermented vegetables daily and avoided most processed foods, I would be shocked.

He mentioned "supplementation" and has a few things listed, none of which I would adhere, but general antiviral supplements (proven clinically, just search it) would certainly help you.

Quercetin+EGCG+ceylon daily

Or just garlic extract and ceylon extract if your budget is tight.
Some people can't memorize times tables, so the common core algorithm might be more generally applicable for those people even if it's less efficient than using a table. There's some value in finding an approach that works for everyone as an educator instead of one that works for Most if you can do that, I think.

In CPU terms, maybe you don't always have the die space for all the tables you need to make a blazing fast implementation of mul or sin or cos, but you can afford to fit a slow iterative solution instead.
@29athrowaway Thanks. Great guide. Good common sense stuff that is easily forgotten.

People forget the basics in the beginning and only start doing the basics once they hit rock bottom.
No no, it did not bother me, and I had been extensively briefed on the differences and issues with Franco and beyond. My fiancée was a supporter of Catalan Independence. BUT, as I met her family, they were kind enough to speak Spanish in my presence so that I could understand better. I had briefly studied a phrasebook of Catalan to get down the standard pleasantries, but I figured I would get by in Spanish easily enough.

I believe that mostly, the prejudice was from me being American, or accompanying a beautiful native woman. I also got dirty looks because of the prepaid debit card I was using for everything.

The rude waiter was in a little restaurant in Manresa, and not in Barcelona proper. So, definitely off the beaten path of tourism.

And as far as returning, I would definitely love to; I loved the Sagrada Família and other such shrines; the scenery was gorgeous, and I was struck by how much older it all was in comparison to American structures and institutions. Yet, it was high technology (I had always had this mistaken belief that Europe was behind the U.S. in computers and electronics) and I amazed my fiancée by photographing the back of the TV, the circuit breaker box, things like that.

I would definitely return to Europe, but outside the influence of my ex-fiancée, I am unlikely to return to Catalonia; I'd love to see Italy, the Holy Land, more of England, but especially Ireland. It's all on my "bucket list"!

Thiel managed 12 days here before citizenship came though, but if you aren’t as rich as him I’m sure we could come to an arrangement.

If working here, you’ll be alarmed by the low wages, high housing costs (for low quality housing) and high cost of living. However bad you think it is, it’s worse.

I used to buy Garmin fitness bands, but they seem to have been discontinued. Among other things, I wore them overnight and use them as an alarm clock. Having a charge that lasts 7+ days is such a huge benefit imho. Does anyone have any other recommendations? I currently have a Fitbit, but I would also prefer a model that didn’t have an associated cloud account.
That's like saying if everyone fails an exam and 1 student failed a bit less that they're great or that public transport in American is great because there's none in the Amazon Forest.

IF we go at it that way everyone is competitive - just label the target market differently and claim to be on top / no competitors.
I mean, Adobe Firefly is free right now. Why would you pay?

I found it Firefly quite good for food, portraits...
Because it is relevant in a bunch of ways.

- It obviously increases the burn rate due to increased medical expenses which makes certain income thresholds to qualify for help harder to reach.

- It together with a comment suggesting parental abuse means she can't rely on family support

- There is discrimination against trans people. If xy% of people despise you because of your existince is a challange to their god and on those people decides how many hours you get that obviously has an impact.

I must congratulate you. Your cynical engagement both claiming this to maybe being a scam, acting worried for me and yet being very motivated to argue political points might have gotten this post removed from the top of AskHN where it was some time before you posted. I hope when i wake up that my genuine ask for help and advice got a few more eyeballs.

Code signing and associated warnings are significantly different from fully prohibiting the execution of unapproved code, I'm not sure why people struggle with the distinction. Windows has been doing this mostly the same way for literal decades.

iOS has a full sandbox which would apply even to "side loaded" applications, which makes the arbitrary constraint even more ridiculous as a "for your own good" measure.

What encoding is this??
Methane emissions from oil and gas are enormously variable depending on what kind of upstream production facilities you have. Norway's methane emissions from oil and gas are negligible, and a couple of orders of magnitude better than the worst offenders, which are Russia and the US.

Why the US? Shale gas is based on an enormous number of gas wells with a short lifetime each. It's not economical to provide power and compressed air at each of these shale gas wells, so they use the pressure of the natural gas as the energy source to actuate their valves and pump liquids. That means the gas is vented to the atmosphere. And any liquids storage is in tanks which have no blanketing, so any evaporation and associated gas goes straight to the atmosphere.

US shale gas has incredibly high methane intensity. Not quite as bad as Russia, but worse than the rest of the world, including Saudia Arabia.

LNG plants themselves tend to have fairly low methane emissions. If you go to Qatar or Australia, the other two leading LNG exporters, their CO2 emissions will be high, but due to their upstream facilities they will have a tiny fraction of the methane emissions of US production.

But it's cheaper and easier to just engage in finger-wagging, pledges and vague ESG-inspired aspirations that to pay more for less-GHG-intensive LNG, so nothing will change in the short term.
Cheers! Frankly, I see it as extremely cheap R&D, eh? A very good deal. ;)
