Last week found myself in Palm Beach with my hybrid mini. Driving down was almost out of gas but thought, I'll just get there, meet my partner and buy gas later.

Next day found a place to charge but only have 17 miles on a good day. But assumed that would be enough to get me to a gas station.

But the gas shortages because of flooding in port everglades extended even up to Palm Beach. They only got four inches of rain not the two plus feet that they got in Miami and no flooding. But, still were affected. I went to a dozen gas stations and called a few, and they had no clue when they would have gas.

We circled around different charging stations within ten or fifteen miles heading north. It was crazy.

We checked again a few hours later and there was a station that had gas.

Feels like climate change might make it complicated for both EV only and gas only. Hybrid seems like the right option but even that was complicated. My mini doesn't use the same plugs as the Tesla chargers. Oh well.
> If to do that you would had to dissasembly the ROM of the Nintendo 64, or of some protection routine in the game, or you were writing an emulator (i.e. another program to interoperate with), it _may_ have been fair game. However looking at the code of the very game you intend to create clones of is not going to fly in any jurisdiction I know of.

I am eagerly awaiting the jurisprudence supporting that. Because if you have nothing to quote, giving your opinion very forcefully doesn’t magically make it more than your opinion.

Armchair layers are in full swing today. I am very curious to know how all of you know so well where the border between what is and isn’t acceptable is.
When people say you need the third hardware revision to get functional performance, and it still doesn’t work, you should conclude it’s poorly designed. The fact that these chips were being sold with old hardware revisions also seems anti-consumer.
I have a fun tangential story about when steam doesn't rise.

In college I would walk past a steam stack on campus every day, because I could see it was always on the verge of making rings (pretty much any cylinder with steam or smoke passing through it or around it is, I've seen rings from incense, boiling rice [the cylinder here is the column of steam bubbles], dropping food coloring into water - if you look for them you start finding them. The craziest example I've seen, which works much like the food coloring, is an airplane contrail.). I thought if I kept it up, one day the wind would blow in just right right way and there would be a beautiful train of rings.

I never did see it. But on a hot day[1], I saw the steam settle into the narrow alley next to the building. It formed into a tiny roll cloud, about six feet long. I watch it stunned for about fifteen seconds, and then it dispersed.

[1] I'm pretty sure it was a hot day, what I remember clearly was that it was an unusual temperature. I surmise the air was very warm and so the steam was denser than the air. But it may have been a cold day and the steam cooled and then sank, unfortunately I can't say for sure because I didn't write it down.
That is the day I will quit reddit and never look back. 6 months ago I rarely used old.reddit.com, but now I run into more and more dark patterns all the time. They tried to TikTok my feed and it was an awful experience. I frequently default to it now instead of using it only when I get sick of the dark patterns.

Reddit got popular because Digg screwed up their comment threading. It's sad to see reddit is starting to make anti-user mistakes like digg. Maybe they think they can force it because there isn't a competent competitor.

The problem with all of these sites is they start to service the lowest common denominator in the name of next quarters profits. As their websites become more hostile to the educated, the quality of content drops and profit goes up, but the golden goose is slowly being strangled.

Reddit was fantastic around the time of digg because the average user appeared to be college educated or greater. Celebrities like Randall Monroe were submitting high quality content. It was common for a literal expert to write a well thought out post. Now it's an "Americas funniest home videos" feed of fart jokes with your liberal aunt and conservative uncle having an argument in the background.

It seems so clear to me that billionaires mean we can't have nice things. Twitter and Reddit both promoted a "truth to power" free speech ideology, and now billionaires are coercing these companies into becoming cess pits that reflect the worst parts of humanity. Power doesn't like to be threatened so they will destroy the weapon.

I still can't decide if these companies are being destroyed because they promote a "no more billionaires" ideology, or if it is simply capitalistic greed and the search for next quarters profits.
Maybe if used once rather than for every meal.

In any case, cooking every lunch and dinner on cast iron or high carbon steel pans solves the iron deficiency for us. Ask an MD to see if it’s an avenue for you too because the iron supplement pills or IVs are made out of animal blood afaik which kinda defeat the purpose of not killing animals.
It's also a delightful answer when you're "in a pub having an argument", if no one thought of that as a possible answer. Something that makes you smile is a good thing.
The greenhouse effect is not "poorly understood" and the link between CO2 and climate is clearly established over millions of years of geologic time. If you have trouble understanding how this is done, I recommend you read more instead of posting on hackernews. You could start here:

If you mean an open source alternative to GPT (and similar) - a few of these early bots will have quasi unfair first mover advantages, in being built up before the restrictions are all put into place by all the various interested entities (which is a big list, from celebrities to copyright owners to big media to corporations to governments and everything nearby or inbetween). The GPTs of the world will have the money to pay said interested parties after the fact, to preserve their creation (ala YouTube/Google).

And after the restrictions are put into place, the highly focused (narrow) GPTs will be backed by large piles of venture capital money (which will be necessary, especially in medicine, law, and other similar high value, high regulation, high risk fields). It'll end up costing a lot of money to build the highly focused GPT type services (and they'll outperform the generalized services at what they do; just as Pinterest / Linkedin / Twitter / etc have been better at what they specifically do than Facebook can ever be as a generalized service; and for the same reason Google can never kill Wolfram).
The draconian (and probably most effective) approach would be legal measures, but the perception there is almost certainly why schools end up making the calls on behalf of parents (which I think is your point).
NY crackdown on illegal weed shops doomed to fail as owners hide in the shadows
I agree with it not being enough. But jeez we can really improve how we teach coding to students. I think JS and software fundamentals could/should be taught in the browser console. It’d be the most applicable way to learn and actually be useful in the real world.
As a Gen Z-er who grew up learning as much as I could about my passions, mostly on YouTube, I hope you're right about us! I'm really hopeful that my generation can go on to do some pretty great stuff. We do have a patently odd sense of humor, though...
Thanks for the information. Appears that it does support the section attribute from GCC too. I'll have to explore this a bit and see if I can use it, since it seems to have all or most the features I use.

I did learn D some years ago when the standard library situation was not great, but might be worth looking at again.
FSD is a disaster and Elon an AH, but it’s a simple fact that Tesla supercharger are their biggest competitive benefit, and superior to anything else on the market?
It can be difficult to weed out scammers for sure. Just don't send money and see who sticks around. theres still a reasonable signal to noise ratio. Meet in person and see if you vibe in person. Same rules wether you're talking to someone in your own country ir another.

That said, if you're just talking for language learning, none of these things matter. langauge pracice is language practice.
You can change the tab title with ansi escapes. These days you can use Unicode chars as well, and some have colors, say with a emoji font.
The register support you describe is an extension, not really part of C. Gcc has lots and lots of C extensions, but they don't make the language simple.

D's inline assembler does register management for you, i.e. it tracks register usage through the instructions, so you don't have to say which registers are read or written to.

D does not support the "section" extension. I understand that certain gcc C extensions are needed for special purposes. Gcc may be the most suitable language if you need those extensions.

What I would do is use gcc for the parts of the code that need those extensions, and D for the rest (D code can directly interact with C code).
I'm about to retire from this very trade, so here's my 2 cents.

In my city the boilers run at 600psi.(Not near any salt water, however if we decided to use it if we could, removing all the impurities from the feed-water would be to expensive. At our psi the feed-water must be clean and deaerated to protect the boiler tubes.)

I'm a plant operator so I don't fix leaks in the field, these steam leaks are just that, small leaks that develop in the steam supply piping or the condensate return piping. (True, some lines aren't insulated properly in the maintenance boxes, so you do get some pulverized condensate.)

The steam generated from the main plant is used for all kinds of applications. Heating of course, whether live steam or heating water using a heat exchanger. Also it is used to power steam turbine chillers to create chill water, which cools a significant amount of office buildings and manufacturing plants. (These chillers use refrigerant, usually 134a, to cool down the water being pumped through them, which is then pumped to where the cooling process is needed. Sometimes these pumps are steam driven, but are usually electric motor driven. Water temp leaving the chiller is usually 38 degrees, but may be around 42 by the time it arrives to where it is used.)

My plant uses natural gas to create steam. Many electrical generating power plants still use coal or nature gas to heat treated water to create the steam to spin the turbines which spin generators to create the electricity. (Sorry, I’m not a very good writer.)

There are many other applications for steam boilers, and no matter what they are, there’s always the threat of leaks. The cleaner the system, whether steam of water, the better the chances of not corroding the piping. This is done by using chemical treatments to destroy the oxygen or rust inhibiters.
I think there is too little oversight on animal testing and that this experiment is a flagrant example of that. While I understand that some experiment "require" animal testing, I don't see how this one arguably does.

That's not been argued, we're arguing the salaries of the scientists instead - not certain why.

I haven't talked abount embezzeling anything or that experiments are useless - just that I can't see why this one was done, and it makes me weary of most experiments on animals, even more than I normaly am, as they seem much more arbitrary than I would have liked to think.

Thanks for your insight and snarkiness anyway.
That's what Android has done all this time in terms of Google services, so it's a well-established preexisting model.
I've had good experience with Realtek NICs too, not 2.5g yet but their 10/100/1000 models. I suspect that's because they use a far simpler design with not much in the way of fancy features[1]. They also tend to benchmark slower with higher CPU usage, but I'll take slightly slower but stable over fast but intermittent connectivity.

[1] Ironically, in this case the Intel has to have a fancy feature, intended for increasing performance, disabled in order to increase performance.
I guess I'm skeptical that a truly General AI could be constructed that didn't have those things. It seems like a fundamental contradiction to me. I don't think an intelligence could make complex good choices without understanding what the bad choices are, and to understand them I think they have to be possible.
Beta Test iOS Game “Zanzibar”
Maybe you like to give this iPhone game a spin.
This is one of the root problems of Western society today and I think it has its origin in the financial crisis. The perpetrators got off scott free everywhere (except Iceland) and everyone who wasn’t a banker ended up paying the price.

The other core component is economies completely dependent on house price rises rather than productive work.

The result is a break down of trust, community and decent behaviour.
This platform exposes each CCX ( group of 4 cores which share the L3 between them) as a NUMA domain if you want. This means that if your workload really takes a huge performance penalty from the ~10% lower (still very high) clock speed, or only part of it really enjoys the cache, you can manually tell the OS to stay where you want.

Scheduling for this kind of chip is not super, but it might improve. Meanwhile, you can enjoy almost all of the performance for the specific workloads where it matters by doing this.
Twitter Enhancement Suite – BlockTheBlue
if you’re nvidia and want to provide a proper cloud gaming app (not browser based, which has resolution limitations), it might be worth it. Apple’s conditions tend to be quite restrictive (which is why they’re having problems in the first place), so I somehow suspect there’s a rather large market, and the eu is very large anyway.
Same here, haven't paid a Tv licence in years. Even told them I don't need one. Doesn't stop the idiots sending me threatning letters every month.
Show HN: Telegram bot for importing animated Sticker.ly sticker packs
Sticker.ly is a popular sticker pack creation and management app used by many of my friends. Unfortunately it doesn't support importing animated sticker packs into Telegram, so I built a bot to do that: https://t.me/StickerlyImportBot

You can find more context in this post here: https://blog.skz.dev/telegram-stickerly-import-bot

Please note that the bot is currently in beta, so some failures may occur.
The UK builds on a long history of private land ownership, a not quite so long history of religious and individual freedom, and an incomplete, but crucial separation of the state and the religious domain. These factors indeed run at odds with that statement. But native Hawaiians might have other ideas on how they want to use their land and prefer a collective decision making process.
Thanks, clearly it's been too long since I read the spec.
[ss]: This is a ChatGPT powered AI bot. It's powering a few websites already with more to come!
+1. I am really upset about the pricing for the value. Great that we have alternatives now
Hopefully all American employees get the same treatment as European employees, rather than hiring a bunch of US-entrenched management and having them go "well this is an American plant, so we don't have to give you a minimum number of vacation days, and we only need to wage gauge you a tiny bit less than other companies in this space int he US for you to feel like we're treating you well".

It's so easy to open a plant in the US and then let them run it like a US company instead of a good company.

(And sure, Lego has has its fair share of employer scandal, but nothing on the level of US worker exploitation. So far)
I assumed they meant top 50 on the org chart, not necessarily the top 50 in objective performance over a long term. I could be wrong.
No trolling, but one of the the things I like to promote on HN is for people to ELI5 as much as possible, given the fact that our knowledge will evaporate over time... so I want people to, as much as possible, divulge as much as one can before they kick the can...

What are you an SME on that should be catalogued.
If you're looking at it from just a qualifications standpoint, then you're right. However, there's more to a person than their qualifications and skills. Judgment and character matter too.

If someone were to lie to my face and waited until I caught them before owning up to it, then giving them a pass tells the world that I'm A-OK with deceit as long as they deliver results.
It's a fundamentally unsolvable problem. There exist names with multiple valid pronunciations for the same spelling.
Windows already has a system for detecting what is and isn't a game for purposes of switchable graphics laptops, so I imagine they reuse that.

You can get pretty good heuristics by looking at graphics API usage.

On Linux you could just put the appropriate taskset or numactl command in your game shortcut, it's pretty easy.
Contact (1996) solved this nicely: Send out a sequence of prime numbers.
Maybe you should read it again: he is 1/4th russian and born in Ukraine. His father was half russian half Belarusian, born in Belarus. His mom not russian at all, she was Ukrainian. That makes him max 1/4th russian. So no, he's not Russian.

It clearly states he was born and raised in Ukraine.

But hey, Russians like to claim everything is theirs, nothing new here. Good to see which side you are on.
When looking up Digg on wikipedia I found this gem:

Alexis Ohanian, founder of rival site Reddit, said in an open letter to Rose:

this new version of digg reeks of VC meddling. It's cobbling
together features from more popular sites and departing from
the core of digg, which was to "give the power back to the people."

Apparently nobody can resist the allure of VC meddling.
Could be. Most of the folks I interacted with in the past have retired. I think I am just going to revert back to full tower PC's for anything I do, even firewalls and appliances so that I am not locked into what may be abandonware. I was hoping to use less power and take up less space with the mini-PC's but in hind-sight that may have been a mistake.
You forgot to toss in a few "state-of-the-art"
> Does this mean that in the course of their academic training and scientific research, this researcher is being trained to be like an ant?

If they act out these predictions and are rewarded based on their accuracy, then yes. They're being trained to be like ants. Not entirely like ants in every way, but like them in specific ways.

There's a big difference with your analogy. Predicting tokens is essentially the same as generating tokens. There's no meaningful objective difference between the activities (I'm ignoring philosophy and focusing on observables). They both lead to a stream of tokens.

For contrast, consider any sport, maybe baseball. I could predict the winner of a game but not be able to win it myself. I could predict the next pitch but not be able throw it or hit it. There's an execution aspect you can fail at. Being like an ant would also have this aspect. Token prediction doesn't have this, or if it does (maybe turning a vector into an API response?) it's a trivial part of the whole problem.

Maybe I'd be more clear to say "write like humans" instead of "be like humans", though.
A) Live in a place where you can charge at home
B) How often do we really go "road tripping around the state"? Rent a car for these trips...
Thanks. My root comment mentioned that it was not really the features of C that I depended on, but the GCC specific features.

I'm interested in using D now as sibling comment mentions that I can use some of these features in gcd, but I'm not yet sure how much benefit I'd get over using C by using a subset of the D features which are compatible with the constraints of my VM.
Could be that I missed the joke.
(Edited the above.)
Is there a bright side to the Mac App store?
Maybe conceptually they're kind of the same, but not practically. Something that fits in your hand is different than something that fits in your trunk.
This assumes that this generation will spent its youtube time learning something useful. While this will be true for part of the population, most people are just wasting their time and, in aggregate, it may happen that this generation will have even lower skills than the previous generation that had access only to a local library.
People way over estimate how often they do 300+ miles in a day. I think it’s partially them not realizing that every time they leave the house with an ev, you’re leaving with a full tank.
I think the real question for a lot who might consider it is whether it’s possible for a competent and honest dev to break in and make money. Someone who wants to provide meaningful value and experiences to smart users, as opposed to just landing whales.
> Apple does not let you change your screenshots and app previews, after your app has been published.

What can you do after a dramatic UI change in your app then? Is there some option to ask or pay for a more comprehensive review at some point?
Born in Ukraine, mom was Ukrainian, dad was born in Belarus.

Your point? It clearly states he was born and raised in Ukraine.
The web wasn’t ready, but native was arguably even less ready due to lack of sandboxing. High fidelity would have been possible with a web based SDK. But that would have invited plebs to convert existing shitty pages to be “apps”, and in those days iOS apps was a noise-free exclusive experience.

Web or not, gatekeeping software distribution was and remains a power grab, unrelated to security. It’s even less of an issue on mobile which has proper sandboxing anyway.
Apple: Give us 30% because we add that much value via our platform. Meanwhile...

Maybe try Debian stable?

Ubuntu is based on Debian, and the releases receive mostly security updates ... so this might be really something for you.

Also, no snaps as far as I know.
> Obviously there is C++ which can leverage most of this too, but C++ traps you into an ABI which is difficult to use from any language which is not C++.

To be fair to C++, all the other languages in this space are as bad at providing ABIs in their own languages. All (almost?) mostly provide ways to declare C ABIs, which C++ also supports.

C++ has rough C++ ABIs, but mostly because it bothers to try in the first place. It's not like other languages really "solved" ABI better than C++ has.

Even C ABIs are a little rough since there's so much preprocessor use to factor in and/or avoid.
I'm glad it seems like we agree then, all military powers have abused their powers and hurt countless of others.
Or it was, anyway. Youtube's choice to tune its algorithm for profitability rather than things I'm actually interested means my home page and "related videos" are almost entirely useless. Youtube's strict search limits also make it very hard to find anything obscure, and impossible to find every video on a particular topic. Maybe it's not the most intellectually healthy thing in the world, but if I want to watch every single, say, reaction video to The Verge's terrible PC build, how dare YouTube decide I'm only allowed to see the three most popular ones before my search results are replaced with random monetized nonsense?
How to Put a GUI on Ansible, Using Semaphore
4chan is actually among the less toxic discussion sites, and definitely better than Reddit.

This is mostly owed to the quality of its moderation team.

4chan's infamy is largely undeserved.
