> It's not new; the only difference is that the people who used to have to power are pissed that their views aren't the popular views anymore. It's a symptom of a massive societal change that has occurred and the subset of people who refuse to let go of their outdated ways.

I think this is an extremely skewed perspective on the whole issue.

It's not us vs. them - cancel culture was, and still is, driven by ignorance and sensationalism. People like the rush of a good story, regardless of whether it's true or not - that's what makes cancel culture so unjust.

Whether it's a gay person being called a Satan's spawn, or Richard Stallman being called a pedophile, or any other case - all cases have one thing in common: exaggeration for the sake of sensationalism, and punishment being completely out of proportion with the crime (note that by "crime" here I strictly mean "the act that is condemned by the group doing the cancellation", regardless of its actual criminality).

If you're a member of the previously-oppressed-now-powerful group, you may rejoice at the thought of retribution on those that caused you (your group) so much injustice in the past, but I hope you realize how hypocritical that makes the whole "tolerance" story that your group has been pushing for the last few decades. But I guess that power corrupts, no matter who's wielding it.
I guess, from a technical perspective, it should be pretty simple: if you can extract an image (or major features applicable for protection), the image is stored in the model. For this purpose, it's yet another compression algorithm.

(Conversely, if this isn't applicable, does this mean that providing protected content in compressed form, say, as a zip archive, is also exempt? In a sense, it's yet another model with an output probability of 1.0.)
I strongly doubt property taxes anywhere exceed the rental value of the land.
If this case had any legs, someone would've made progress against Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft consoles in the past. They haven't, those are more locked down and much easier to demonstrate the price harm when games are $60 and marketed to children.

You say "for better or worse" and I agree, but people don't want to hear that. They want to hear [company I don't like] should be punished and [company I like] shouldn't.

I really felt this when I was watching Andor. It's about a bunch of nobodies in the Star Wars universe, no Jedi at all. But there were so many moments when things just made so much sense, that it actually took me out of the moment in surprise. There's so little good writing anymore that it's shocking when you see it.

Potatoes produce the highest level of satiety compared to other carbs. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6267283/ Combined with fats via frying or baking, and it's not a joke that they would make you feel the most full compared to a similar amount of rice or refined wheat bread/pasta.

The interest free loan is more like $1B dollars. This $181M is the breakage, the left over gift card balances that are unlikely to be redeemed and they are recognizing as revenue. e.g. The $2 left on a $20 gift card that someone doesn't bother redeeming.

They also get another $1B of deposits from people loading money onto their app to pay for drinks. Starbucks is basically sitting on the equivalent of a small banks deposits at any given time.

That's quite an argument. "Software is getting too hard to write, so we will do the work in hardware instead, since hardware is so much easier to develop."

It's pretty ballsy of Intel's marketing department to so blatantly lie to your face like that. Maybe they were big believers of the "Big Lie" rhetorical device? If you say something so outrageous people are less likely to question it because you must be a genius with loads of inside knowledge to assert something so completely crazy on the face of it.
Indeed. I enjoyed 'The Mentalist' series (The Pilot and Series 1 in particular) which was also on Netflix if memory serves.
> Unless "of a commercial aircraft" is implied.

No - "large airliners" is specifically spelled out. Unless this private pilot was in a 737 or whatever, the statement is still true.

Since you are talking about KPAO, it was definitely a small aircraft.

GA aircraft land on highways often. The only reason that doesn't happen more frequently is that pilots are generally concerned about causing ground casualties. Usually what would prompt this would be an engine failure. A silent aircraft trying to land among high speed traffic makes for a dangerous scenario.
> the "can drive anywhere, under any conditions, with no more danger than humans" sense

That’s fine. I’m limiting scope to urban and suburban environments where they interface with other modes as a universal last mile. That definitely looks proximate, given there are working examples already deployed, albeit unsustainably.
I'd even settle for a sit-down with the writers and show runners where they go over what the ending would have been, even if they don't get a chance to actually film it.

Can confirm that the NYT has fixed it, as I recently went to go see how much of a pain in the ass it was to cancel. I was at least considering cancelling because I just don't read NYT enough to really justify the expense. Since it's such a huge PITA, I chose a day when I had some time, because by golly I'm sticking with the process to the end, no matter how long I sit on hold with "customer retention".

Oh, you can just click a few "are you sure?" buttons, and that's it? All done online? Well, it isn't that much money every month, and I do read the NYT. If I can easily cancel, then...oh, what the heck, let's keep the subscription.

But I had to pick up a phone that day...

No there are major differences. A non-exhaustive list:

* Crusoe/Efficeon/... used a software JIT (called CMS)

* Ran on a very custom architecture (P95/P2000) designed for JITted code with speculation (software controllable checkpoints, "assert" instructions, speculative cache, small lookup tables for translating x86 addresses to P95 etc).

* It had no dynamic scheduling, reorder buffer, renaming, etc.

The thesis was to eliminate the power/area hungry parts of microprocessors by having the "compiler" (= JIT) do it up front.

Some things worked well (very power efficient, small die). Others less so: huge cold code penalty, limited ability to deal with large cache misses (like IA-64).

Transmeta had a huge impact on the industry; Intel has officially credited Transmeta and Transmeta's LongRun with getting Intel focused on power. Both NVIDIA and "another company" have explored the CMS idea.

There is so much to the Transmeta story and the failure was more of a business issue than a technical one. This was a completely new approach and Transmeta needed more iterations to refine the idea.

ADD: A VLIW "instruction" (called a "molecule" in TM terminology) is compiled, fetched, issued, and (mostly) executed as a (parallel) unit. That is very very different from what modern superscalar microprocessors do. They issue instructions from many issue queues. The instructions that execute in the same cycle usually do so mostly as a consequence of data-flow and the current state of the pipeline. Large x86 instruction translated to microcode typically leads to many µops that do not execute in parallel, but are intermixed with other µops.
The consequences of having zero property tax are (maybe unintuitively) extremely awful. Ignoring all of the arguments regarding commons and market liquidity, you essentially cede enormous amounts of power to large landholders who can cheaply (relative to the average citizen) monopsonize local real estate markets.

EDIT: Maybe in practice oligopsonize, but either way on a long timescale you can say goodbye to widespread freeholding.

Ask HN: Why do some electronics use 6.2 volts DC?
I don’t know very much about electronics.

I was poking around a new device and the power supply was supplying 6.18 volts to a board that appears to have 5v chips…the labels are rubbed off but one has “5v” written on it.

Then I looked in my box of wall warts and saw I have a 6.2 volt adapter. So I am curious why would an EE use 6.2 rather than 5 volts?

For context, the device is a tabla drum machine. The power supply is a bit janky. It uses line level AC. I would like to just power the board directly with a barrel plug and that seems within my ability.
Some people have to pay rent
You're describing what it was in theory.

In PRACTICE it was kids being present with a confusing array of things all at once when they hadn't sorted out the basics, and as a result learning none of them. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34634210 for my rant about what my son actually went through.

There is an old saying about writing. "Writing is easy, just open a vein and bleed." That particular rant I'm pretty sure that I hit an artery.
A representative of this tax office said that the office does not turn a profit on these tax sales, it loses money. Which is believable because this woman was given 5 years to pay the $2300 bill or sign up for a repayment program. There are repayment programs that require a person to pay as little as 3% of their income per year. The county wasn't pushing her out the door to get their hands on her wealth, they tried repeatedly over multiple years to get her to make an effort and she never did anything.

What I would guess will happen is that the court will rule that keeping the excess equity is unconstitutional, but assessing fees equal to the cost of running the program is not, so they will raise the fees to compensate. Which will be good for some and bad for some, but feel more reasonable overall.
Last year, I started an experiment with my diet.

It started with the idea of eating as cheaply as possible with nutrient dense foods, but I started off with an elimination diet.

I chose 2-3 "meals" that I could easily prep and only cost $2-4 each. Mostly eggs, ground beef, white rice, potatoes. I quickly added bell peppers and onions.

I tracked macros, and filled in the micros with new additions. Calories as well of course.

The result was fantastic.

1. I got really fast at cooking, and even now that I cook more complex meals, I'm much faster than before. Probably because I introduced new ingredients gradually and maintained efficiency in the kitchen.

2. My ability to eyeball macros on a plate is pretty good now. It's much easier to regulate my energy levels because of this. I can also guess my bodyweight within ~5lbs before checking the scale.

3. I figured out what I digest most easily. As an athlete, I can't really afford to have days where I'm "bathroom dependent".

The consistency in all these aspects has greatly improved my life.

If you want to get better at cooking, understand your body better, save time, and eat a healthier diet, this method might work well for you.

Disclaimer: after the first 2-3 weeks, I switched from 100% compliance to ~80% compliance. That way I get the benefits of regimented eating without going crazy. Even if you eat healthy, it's not good to obsess over calories and food options.
>but over the trailer of the documentary (i added the link) which literally says she was a black woman.

Err, no, it doesn't literally say that. There is:

1) A man with light brown skin saying that he imagines Cleopatra as having the same skin tone as him and curly hair, which is entirely plausible (though far from certain) given what is known about her ancestry.

2) A woman saying that her grandma told her that Cleopatra was black.

It's nothing more than a nod to the longstanding controversy over Cleopatra's race and appearance, which far predates anything usually covered by the meaningless term of abuse 'woke'. Part of the problem here is that 'black' as a racial category didn't really exist in Egypt in the 1st century BC, so it's a bit of a silly debate anyway.

“Houses can sit empty without tenants for years but they’ll only go up. Companies can be unprofitable for literal decades but they’ll keep finding funding and buyers. Commercial properties can bleed tenant but the prices will only be up.”

This is not sustainable over the long haul and is basically asset holders holding out for better days (e.g. waiting for the Fed to lower interest rates to recreate the frenzy). In the meantime, cash flows and operating profits are going to get hammered until those with the shallowest pockets can no longer keep up the charade, and the fire sales begin.

Starbucks gift cards don't expire. It's standard account practice to recognize a percentage of your unused gift card balance as revenue as no company ever sees 100% redemption rates of gift cards. They call this "breakage".
Post-post and meta-meta concepts were really cool and interesting when they first popped up in indie circles back in the 90s, and even when they hit the mainstream in the late 00s. But now it feels like we've seen all these jokes, fourth wall breaks, and gritty, realistic remakes of everything. Instead of seeming like a writer's original ideas inspired by the real world, it just looks like they're copying from other shows and movies for no better reason than "everybody is doing it."

Honestly, it's time to move on and find some other way to tell stories.

An interesting slashdot comment[0] about running directly on the Crusoe:

> The article makes it pretty clear why Linux can't run directly on the Crusoe: Linux expects the hardware to have a virtual memory manager, which the Crusoe doesn't have. Consequently, any port of Linux will need to be running on an emulated memory manager.

As a side note, the Crusoe is also missing native support for certain other helpful features:
Memory protection -- without that, a segfault can take out the entire OS.
Running code from user memory -- without this, any application code will need to be piped through the OS to the CPU.

USDC X CCTP: An Open Dollar Platform for Developers
>The concept was never broken on macOS

Yes it is, MacOS also doesn't have key themes. I can't reconfigure a Mac to use Windows keyboard shortcuts. Those are just the default key bindings every Mac app has to support. That's why it works on Mac and it doesn't work on Windows or Linux or anywhere else where the defaults are different. You're comparing apples to oranges here.

To elaborate, Mac gets away with it because historically it has Command as an extra modifier and uses that as the primary modifier key. The Control key isn't used for anything else on Mac. GTK apps need to support non-Mac keyboards where Control is the primary modifier key. The Win or Super key on PC keyboards is historically not used often as a modifier. If it is used as a modifier it's often only used by the shell, not by an app. So, what is consistent for you depends on platform conventions anyway.

>but it's still quite disappointing that the "free" desktop is where my preference is disrespected.

This isn't a desktop preference, you're asking every app to fundamentally change the way its keybindings work. The "free" in free desktop means that if you want to change all keybindings for every app to work to your preference, then you get to fork those apps, change the code yourself, recompile and then deal with any of the resulting bugs. It doesn't mean that suddenly every preference that you want will start working without any extra effort or causing additional bugs.

To be in favor of nuclear power you need to ignore the fat tail risk structure.

And nuclear power proponents are using plenty of lies. Like the one where the only alternative to nuclear power is coal power.

What you claim to be "reality" and "science" is just a convenient selection of either. It is entirely rational to claim that the risk of nuclear power is not calculable, and to not have enough appetite to carry that risk.
What I truly don’t understand is why everyone decided they needed their own streaming platforms. What’s the strategy there? Why does Disney need to invest resources into Disney+ when they can just sell the rights to their content to one or two Streaming platforms and make more money? Did they think it would be cheaper to build their own platforms? Same for all the others. Who cares if Netflix owns the streaming user-base if you’re still making more money off the content? Is there some user data play I’m not aware of?
