The corporate sausage making machine is merely only doing what it's customers want, for the price they'll pay, nothing more, nothing less.

A lot of these are good impulses but also feel like an unfunded mandate, like rear back up cameras being mandatory - obligating everyone pay a thousand dollars more every year.

The feel good comes from the DOT, the cost gets paid by the customer.
Are you sure? The cold boot RAM usage is not of significant importance. You should check the RAM usage after using your system extensively and then closing all apps. My personal experience have been that after using KDE for few hours the RAM usage of plasmashell, krunner and kwin is way too much and it keep increasing. This is on stock KDE without any plugins etc.
Since the volume of gas trapped by a mask is miniscule compared to the lungs, I wonder if it even matters. Might be better to just try to measure blood concentrations.
Seem is doing a lot of lifting there. For one, there is no generation of iPhone that is safe to use while driving. Such that you have a ton more tolerance for a phone than you would a car system. Mostly for good reasons.

It doesn't help that iphones from that time frame aren't really in use today. Car systems are.

That seems to be exactly what they are trying to do:

> Lee Smolin is working on an idea where the building blocks are events where momentum is exchanged.Space, and hence position, is an emergent phenomena.

It’s perfectly OK to speculate that perhaps gravity, say, is not fundamental, but instead emerges from interactions or whatever at a lower layer that we haven’t yet identified.

Swarm is a subsidiary of SpaceX.

Also, the Starlink modems need a huge amount of power compared to the Swarm network, not really a similar application.
We have the data now https://security.googleblog.com/2022/12/memory-safe-language...

1.5M lines of Rust in Android and not a single memory vulnerability found, including in their unsafe Rust code. They also observe that the number of memory vulnerabilities decreases almost exactly inline with the decreasing use of memory unsafe language in Android.

The Android Rust code is also showing to have less bugs in general than the C/++ code.
Paying the fine could be a reasonable decision, depending on their priorities.

Paying the fine and providing the user data basically renders the whole service pointless, right? It is better to be blocked in Brazil than to be useless everywhere I guess.

Mongo was so comically bad. I remember trying to sort through a slow query and thought: ah ha! I'll just add an index. Unfortunately on that version of Mongo, creating an index would occasionally just crash the server process.

I think Mongo became popular because it's ad tech and those guys knew how to be buzzword compliant. JSON-esque documents are one thing, but Mongo is Javascript to the core. All of a sudden your JS devs don't have to learn SQL they can just shit out some queries in javascript. Of course that came with some pretty severe drawbacks.
Unfortunately, there is still no cure for baldness in the 25th century.
That would mean that the volume of gas trapped in a mask is 42% of lung capacity? Seems extremely implausible to me.
> but all particles follow the same trajectory in a gravitational field

That's not true. The "all masses fall at the same speed" thing is only true when one mass is much larger than the other. (Well, it's never actually true, it's more "is only a useful approximation".)

So heavier masses follow different trajectories in a gravitational field, just like more charged particles do.

Ask HN: Which is the most useful CS/math topic that you have learnt?
When studying any subject we learn a lot of things. Most of the things we forget because we never get to use them repeatedly. But there are some topics which we use almost everywhere in our professional lives and those become our strong points.

In CS/math which topic would you place in that category?

For me in math it was linear algebra and for CS it was learning to write an interpreter for a language (or learning about programming language theory in general using an incremental interpreter).
Even as someone who believes in the indefensible bloat of modern software, I'd say TI-OS on my 84+ (from using it in high school and college several years ago) is not exactly the fastest to use:

- Graphing a plot was slow due to slow CPU and high-precision math libraries (could take 3-10 seconds depending on function complexity and detail)

- MathPrint mode slows down printing expressions to an extent, IIRC even moving the cursor through history felt sluggish.

- The B&W LCD screen with slow color transitions adds more latency than a compositor does.

- Garbage collecting the flash memory could take dozens (IIRC) of seconds, and would happen unannounced when manipulating saved programs (IIRC not in regular calculations).

I recently drove a 2020 rental with a touchscreen 3,500 miles. The touchscreen was okay because the car had physical controls for all the things you might want to fiddle with while driving, like A/C. I had the touchscreen set to navigation the whole time, so I didn’t really fiddle with it.

Your conclusion is very reminiscent of the mouse-hope experiment. Very fascinating.
I see these videos on YT, "walking through Tokyo 4K" stuff like that. It would be cool to have something that can watch the video and generate a street level map with depth of what it saw. You can then go through with a camera head level and navigate it. Can be done but yeah.

My grandfather (born around 1910, died 1969) used to earn extra money on week ends by going to the horse track and calculating odds for the bookies. They’d take a big bet and he would tell them how to adjust the odds and what offsetting bets to make to hedge risk. This was in guineas, pounds, shillings, farthings etc.

He did all the calculations in his head. He’d only attended school through part of year 5.

Not surprisingly, the one of his kids who went to uni (my dad) got two maths degrees and two EE degrees.
You don’t think it’s important to identify “position” as an “emergent phenomenon”? That idea in itself is novel as fuck. Nevermind how someone could actually begin to explain it.

It is interesting how many languages originating in different parts of the world all somehow figured to have a base and name the numbers by base. For instance if you know 1 to 9. And then you know 10, 20, 30, 40... 90. And then 100, 200, 300... you will be able to say the numbers 57 (fifty, seven) or 69 (sixty nine) or 237 (two hundred, thirty, seven).

But all the languages under Indo-Iranian(https://lingweb.eva.mpg.de/channumerals/Indoeuro.htm) for instance Hindi (https://lingweb.eva.mpg.de/channumerals/Hindi.htm) have 1-100 as different numbers and then follow the base principle.

20 in Hindi is 'bis'. 2 is 'do'. But 22 is 'bais'. Know 30 and knowing 7 in Hindi or any of those Indo-Iranian language will not help you tell 37.

But knowing 100 and 37 will be enough to say 137 in those languages. 100 in hindi is ek sau. And 37 is 'senthis'. So you will be able to say 'ek sau senthis'.

It is fascinating that those languages chose to not follow base till 100 and then followed the base while naming their numbers.
In a subtle way, this case exposes that copyright law itself is unrighteous and fundamentally unethical. Most people have bought into the thinking behind copyright laws (as children of their time), which makes it hard to see how it could be wrong (illustrating the Stockholm -and related- syndromes). But trying to make the case where using copyrighted images as data for a neural network as being wrong, because it "feels wrong" to those whose sense of fairness is calibrated against the concepts behind copyright law, highlights that the case cannot logically be made. "But they made use of the 'copyrighted' images, they are profitting off of them" - which copyright law is supposed to protect against: only the copyright holder should derive financial benefit from the material. It appears now that is not just hard to enforce, but it ultimately doesn't make sense, it just enormously complicated the world (giving rise to a whole class of well-paid lawyers).
I feel compelled to share a video, now 9 years old, that shows how touch screens could be accommodated with sensible design in cars. The UIs we are used to on our phones are not suitable for driving, but we could make something that is.

Yeah it seems to be a pretty niche use case. The learning curve for Rust is simply too high (my GOD the syntax). You can just get much more done, in less time with a web framework.

I looked into Rust for writing games (including the UI frameworks), but found that the power it provides isn't really worth all the mental overhead. Most games don't really need that much power, particularly if you are using non-realistic graphics. In the event that you do actually need extra optimization, most engines let you hook down into C++ for raw performance.
That's exactly it. Any less than the regulator won't regulate properly. More than that it'll dissipate too much heat.
If you went to school at say UCLA you are already used to living with a roommate in your bedroom (sometimes four). That's $1000 in san jose. Say you have a partner, now it doesn't even seem so desperate. Now you are at $12k rent alone. Fly spirit and buy the airfare long out to visit mom and dad when tickets are like $200 (i get emails for $49 spirit fares sometimes). call it $13000 with five visits home a year. Food wise you can easily do $50 a week groceries buying basic ingredients like fresh produce and rice or tortillas and beans. Now we are at about $16000 with all your needs met and about $4000 left over for any oddball expenses. SF area has bussing too, and bike lanes if you didn't want to bother with car expenses.

That's really weird. Button nothing, why is there not just a handle on the glove box? Who thought it was a good idea to hook that up to the computer? Does that mean you can't open the glove box unless the car is turned on?
What can you do, other than telling your children that aiming for success is no more "acting white" than it is "acting Nigerian" or "acting Indian" or "acting Russian" or whatever? Speak up when the race baiters support their narrative, go to school board meetings and let the cabal know you're not having any of it. Home school if that is feasible, especially when your have access to a group of like-minded neighbours. Don't allow the narrative to go by without speaking up against it no matter when it comes up - in the media, in popular culture, at social gatherings, in church or mosque or synagogue or temple, etc. Don't be preachy but just state the facts as you know and have experienced them. You may be called out on doing so, may be accused of acting against your own interests, acting "white", being an uncle Tom and more of such but that is a hurdle you'll have to take - it just means you're getting close to the target.

Also, vote according to what candidates have done and what they promise to do, not according to "how people like you are supposed to vote". The people pushing this narrative do so because they expect to gain or keep power by portraying themselves as representatives of people like you, let them know they do not represent you and that their false narrative is not welcome because of the reasons you stated. While voting - and letting people know why you did so - won't solve the immediate problems caused by these false prophets it does help to deflate their narrative. There is a whole industry and economy built around keeping the narrative alive - Thomas Sowell had written extensively about this - so it won't just disappear overnight but once enough people speak up against it out will be hard for them to keep up the appearance of being righteous... and they'll change their target to some other identity category like gender or religion (this is already happening).

> A new show launches, it doesn't perform too well, so Netflix cancels it after the second season. Now, the people who enjoyed the show will be more sceptical of new shows, and now a larger percentage of users will "boycott" new shows.

This isn’t new, rarely is a cable tv show signed initially for more than 1-2 seasons and then if it does well it’s renewed. Netflix is literally following industry standard here so if you’re going to call them out call everybody out.
Yeah I totally understand that we don't need to clutter the interface with features.

But for example, when you want to go to certain position in a text paragraph, it is super intuitive in Android to click on the text wherever you want the cursor to be. If you try that in iOS, it does that, but the precision is really really bad, like unusable. To precisely place a cursor in iOS you need to hold the spacebar. I know that, but I doubt the average user does, how would they? Even after knowing that, the Android way is much less of a headache.

I prefer Android in many such things.

This. I think that the Rails community is slowly forgetting how to actually write Ruby, and reinventing known and tried OOP patterns using as little OOP as possible — in a purely object-oriented language!

I’m working on a codebase where someone had the amazing idea to implement some of the multi-model business logic using the “Interactor” gem. I’ve just spent two days rewriting one of these interactor abominations into a simple 250 LOC module of module_function-ed methods with clear dependencies and data flow, as a temporary solution to be able to see what’s even happening there and build some actual domain models from it.

I can’t imagine anyone with some CS background and a bit of experience with other languages to look at the interactor stuff and go: omg this is perfect, exactly what this codebase needs. It’s like a normal Ruby class but it:

- hides all instance variables into an opaque “context” bag
- has methods which don’t take arguments (they reach into the “context” bag instead)
- has methods that don’t have return values (side effects go into the “context” bag)
- has no constructor and just chucks everything you pass to #new into the “context” bag
- is not understood by RubyMine, arguably the most intelligent Ruby IDE, at all
It's often not about learning more, the techniques and methods in Casey Muratori's streams are often very well understood and even taught in school.

Dismissing people as just being there for the paycheck - that's you and every other developer.

The number of people who produce useful OSS projects because they just like the project and aren't filling out resume points to hope bigtech senpai notices them is astronomically small, and usually the sort of political project nobody wants to touch.
And to me this reads as petulant redefining of terms in the hopes of pulling a gotcha.

To be clear, the portability afforded with streaming services is nice. And I'm all for taking advantage of it. But household has always been the combination of a physical house and a social group in it. To claim otherwise is silly.

Can you find other uses of the term that does this? Even "family" is typically constrained to immediate family. Such that nobody expects family benefits at a job to extend to their cousins. Heck, we don't even expect it to extend to siblings or parents.

That's because Apple Carplay wasn't really designed with a linear input method in mind. It should be list-based, not grid-based. Like old Nokia phones, which often only had up-down buttons paired with two action buttons—no left-right.

Give each menu item it's own tone and you could probably navigate it blind after a little bit of practice. Importantly, in this type of system, each menu list should be short—6-7 items max—so that it is easily navigable and memorizable.

I don't think the article claimed Elite was first. Funny enough, I just spent the last three days implementing a remake of Battlezone on rp2040 with just fixed point math. That was a lot of fun. Still a few tweaks left to do, but it's mostly done. Edit: Battlezone's 3D is very limited, the camera, and object rotations are limited to only rotations about the y-axis (vertical axis). i.e. only yaw, no pitch, no roll. Given the hardware involved, this is understandable.
