I truly miss Number Munchers haha. We played until the game crashed because the computer running it ran out of memory. Somewhere around n=13 for the prime number version (the only version worth playing). Probably because at that point there were too many monsters on the board.
The other answers are great
1. Keep the devices out of your kids room
2. Control access via Apple’s parental controls (like you already do) and also via NextDNS which allows excellent filtering controls (time of day, content, etc).
I've got a volvo XC90...

The "ipad-like" touch screen looks cool, but it's very uncool as software updates have slowed it down over time... When I shift into reverse, the camera often doesn't come on for what seems like ages... The car also does not turn completely off when I turn it off, completely bewildering to me, as the battery can go dead easily in a crisis because of this issue, especially when the car is connected to Android Auto, the car never wants to turn itself off.

The volume control on the car turns up every time I switch the radio to a new station or input, even when the stereo is on mute, which is verrrrry jarring. The car beeps constantly for no reason as well, reverse sensor noises and a lot more unhelpful options need to be turned off every time the car is started, almost feels as if they want to frustrate drivers.

I am really beginning to hate advanced technology in cars, because the software in them is geared towards people that constantly want to be distracted and entertained by the tech, whereas I like to stay focused on the road. Mobile phones also drive the tech and stimulation obsession for many, whereas old cars just serve a common and simple purpose, and with an audio jack and car-native GPS (which phone/car makers got rid of) life was so much more simple and enjoyable while driving from what I can recall.

Software driven cars create tons of distractions that translate into real world accidents that could be preventable, especially with developing hands free commands (they work very poorly still in most cars to this day).
> The US Copyright Office determined recently that art created solely by AI isn’t eligible for copyright protection. Artists can attempt to register works made with assistance from AI, but they must show significant “human authorship.”

The issue is that only humans can own copyright. In the referenced Copyright Office determination, (“A Recent Entrance to Paradise” (“Work”)) homeboy tried to say that the computer was the author of the work (original copyright owner) and then transfer the copyright from the computer to himself.

If he were to directly claim authorship and copyright then there would be no problem. The whole convoluted thing the human was doing to try to list the computer as the author is what got rejected. Just like the large primate that took a picture with a photographer's camera. Camera owner could claim copyright ownership, but copyright office would not give the copyright to the primate that pushed the trigger button because they are not human.

Per speciesism if you ask me. ;-/

For me, relocating a household has always brought on a feeling that "I can't believe it is actually happening."

To a lesser extent, so have serious road trips.

And quitting jobs.

Now I realize that that sense of being lost is part of how learning and growing feels for me as an adult. I think that's because my comfort zones get deeper as I age and my awareness of the vastness of the accessible unknown increases.

I deal with it through experience. I've moved several times and made multiple road trips. The existential dreads are familiar as is the experience of their dissipation once the adventure is underway.

Of course that's just what works on my machine.

Good luck.
Would it be a case of improving infrastructure even further to convince you to cycle then? Or would it require more or less removing all cars from the roads?
Siri is not that bad, considering that Google Assistant is not great either.

What do people use it for? mostly just to set alarms or turn of lights etc.

With all this breakthrough in AI and things like Whisper which brings incredible voice recognition, these tools are ripe for an upgrade even though they have been stagnant for years.

ChatGPT like abilities + voice assistant and these 'voice assistants' are relevant again and actually deliver on there original promise.
Doesn't work for me. I get this:

>There's already a [number] minute timer. Replace? Confirm/Cancel

Running iOS 16.1, so unless they added this feature in the last few months I'm not sure why we'd see different results.

edit: Perhaps you're using HomePod? Apparently Siri on HomePod supports multiple timers, while Siri on iPhone does not. Goofy.
"Winner writes the history" is largely bullshit. 90% of the narrative about the third reich and WW2 right up until recently came from the very Nazis responsible.
From your link:

> Specifically, data from the report suggests that a chiropractor will be aware of an arterial dissection occurring following cervical manipulation only once in 8.06 million office visits
Men should get this, as well. US CDC doesn't recommending it for boys only because "it is not cost-effective."

Get the vaccine, for yourself and boys. Whether or not you can afford it!

SRC: Dealing with this!
Google Home is pretty bad at adding time to existing timers too. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it creates a second timer with a difficult to access name.

Personally, I'm become convinced a good talking/listening clock is actually a useful thing, but Google isn't providing it, and it sounds like Apple isn't either.
Well, starting from the 1840s onwards, we saw far more revolutions than ever before.

The European revolts of 1848, the Paris Commune, the Russian Revolution, the Chinese Revolution, the Cuban Revolution, all the others (Vietnamese, Korean, etc.).

Then we also had the counter-revolutions in Germany and Italy, etc.

Tocqueville was a bad analyst, but people who say what others want to hear stand a decent chance of failing upwards (see: American invasion of Iraq, etc.).
Purely anecdotal but I know way more TVs with an Apple TV device than I know humans with an Apple watch. In most cases they are households with many TV-Apple TV pairings, and maybe one or two people in the household have an Apple watch.
This is even better, I usually use "navigate home". Thanks for sharing the voice message bit!
I couldn't even if I wanted to. I don't do good work like that. Its miserable.
This is simply false, or at the very least outdated. Apps can definitely implement custom intents for Siri:

https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guideline...
In Brave, you can select the Bookmarks panel from the side bar, and then toggle it open/closed from then on with Ctrl+B.

Regarding iOS, it's entirely possible there's a bug in our code. I'll definitely take a closer look and speak with the team regarding this report. That said, it's also not entirely uncommon for users to enter a site through a slightly different URL, or form, which complicates the credential-autofill logic. If you have an example or two of sites where this behavior is consistently observed, that would be much appreciated.
It's, barring unforeseen circumstances, a very durable conservative supermajority on the court now. So I think you're going to increasingly see liberals think packing the court is desirable, even knowing it invites counter-packing on the other side, as an alternative to what they've got now. This of course assuming they ever have enough control of Congress to actually do such a thing.

Earlier in history a Court at odds with the other branches basically "blinked" when confronted with the threat of packing, but it's hard to see that happening now. It's obvious that Roberts is concerned with the image of the institution to the degree that it's affected the outcomes of cases before that were likely to be seen as overtly partisan, but there's now a conservative majority even with his exclusion.

Some of the court's outsized power and importance has happened because of Congress's unwillingness and/or inability to act, leading both parties to look to the court for "wins." I think fixing that (itself a tall order) could turn down the temperature a little, but the Supreme Court itself holds a lot of control over whether that can even work, as they're effectively the arbiter of the scope of their own power.
It is kind of an interesting phenomenon. There's always companies looking to cut corners and really don't know how much resources actually do. and there are always bottlenecks in working coming in. so if you took a salary of 80% for 2 jobs your probably not going to get fired if your keeping up with the demands of the job.
Justices have many avenues for non-controversial extra income, like speaking engagements, books, and teaching appointments. All of them take advantage of these, and all or nearly all of them are millionaires as a result. This generally receives little pushback as long as it is disclosed, and there is much less potential for corruption than secretly receiving "gifts" from political activists.
That would imply that Amazon app store or Samsung app store apps are illegal content. While they are not as popular in the US, these alernate apps stores have existed for years on android without issue.
Depressing world facts in April 2023:

"I'm in a war zone."

"Oh yeah, which one?"

At least in March 2023 it was "slightly better" that people would go straight to assuming the answer is "Ukraine". Any other active wars going on[1]? Maybe Myanmar..

[1] Result for "active wars in 2023" gives me a page of potential conflicts: https://www.cfr.org/report/conflicts-watch-2023
In WW2 they were introducing brand new designs months after their predecessors. Warfare is a dynamic environment where those who do not adapt fast enough literally perish. Keeping the same system for decades does reduce the cost of retraining and logistics, but is the point of your military to save money or win wars?

The military needs projects to be completed in a timely manner, producing systems that can keep up with or preferably beat their competitors. The automotive, semiconductor, and consumer electronics industries all have exactly the same need, and this is how it's achieved.
I default to assuming chiropraxis is bullshit, but the existence of "potential dangers" is not a good argument against the potential existence of benefits.
Oh god please don’t. You may feel like you are superhuman but you aren’t and this will creep up to bite you in ways you don’t yet comprehend. For instance, all that time coding leaves little time for family. All that time coding leaves little time for your physical health. I guarantee you if you keep this schedule another 2-5 years you will burn out. Please don’t do this to yourself. 60hrs max and then go outside. Go do something in your community. Find a mate. Live.
Honestly, if you're getting decent reviews at work then that's plenty.
Apple TV (the hardware, not the streaming service) is so underappreciated. The smooth task switching alone makes it worth a buy. I think it's severely undermarketed.

And the old touch remote that so many people hated.. I like it so much.

(Haven't tried the newest remote that has a combined d-pad/touch area because of troglodyte customer feedback ( ;) ) but I suspect I will hate it since the touchpad area is so much smaller.)
I recently used ChatGPT to find a part. Maybe this was an anomalous result, but it was wrong. Don't know if this will be an issue with your project.

Me: Is there a digital to analog converter with an 8V analog range and serial input?

CGPT: Yes, there are several digital-to-analog converters (DACs) available with an 8V analog range and serial input. One example is the AD5541A DAC from Analog Devices. It has a 16-bit resolution and can accept serial input in the form of SPI or QSPI signals. The output voltage range is programmable and can be set to 0 to 8V using an external reference voltage.

Another example is the MAX5389 DAC from Maxim Integrated. It has an 8-bit resolution and can accept serial input in the form of I2C signals. The output voltage range is also programmable and can be set to 0 to 8V using an external reference voltage.

These are just a couple of examples, but there are many other DACs available from different manufacturers that meet your specifications.

Me: Those parts are limited to 6v max

CGPT: I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct that the AD5541A and MAX5389 DACs have a maximum output voltage range of 5V, and they cannot meet your requirement of an 8V analog range.

However, there are other DACs that can meet your specifications. For example, the DAC5578 from Texas Instruments is a 16-bit DAC that can operate from a single 5V supply and has a programmable output range up to 10V. It also supports a serial interface with SPI or MICROWIRE protocols.

Another option is the MCP49xx series from Microchip, which includes several DACs with output voltage ranges up to 10V and a serial interface with SPI or QSPI protocols.

I hope this information is helpful, and please let me know if you have any further questions.

Keeping Large Language Models from Running Off the Rails
> I have both theoretically and practically verified the 2XSAT reduction, and I believe it's a step towards P=NP.

NP is generally thought to be harder than factoring, so I'm not sure that your reduction is a "reduction" in the sense that you've restated factoring in a (potentially-)harder-than-native problem space. Proving that factoring is polynomial would be a huge result indeed, but if your strategy requires you to prove P=NP along the way, you're focused on the wrong problem and I wouldn't expect you to get much traction.
Misery is working in an approved SCIF. I've been in them. During the Cold War, they were like this.

There's a big, mostly empty room. Inside it is a big metal box made of steel panels welded together with visible welds.
Thick solid steel. The thing looks like a big metal tank, and that's what it's called.
They're usually painted industrial grey. There are, of course, no windows.

The box is raised about two feet above floor level, so it can be inspected underneath. There's clearance on all six sides for inspection. You go in through an double door airlock-type arrangement. When each door is closed, a compressed-air system forces conductive tines against each doorframe for RF tightness. Power goes in via big RF filter boxes. Data involves hardware crypto units and fiber optics. If there's a connection, it's to another similar tank elsewhere.

These tanks are inspected by people who put an RF transmitter inside and then go around the outside with antennas and receivers to see if they can get anything from the transmitter.

This is completely separate from physical security. The alarms, guards, and cameras protect the outer room, so nobody gets close to the outside of the tank.

These steel boxes were no larger than necessary. Much like working in a shipping container.
No decoration or unnecessary objects inside. Not grim, but military functional.

When you finally get inside the box, the impression is more likely to be "you still have one of those running?" than "wow, that's advanced!". The advanced technology will be in some very specific mission-critical area, and everything else will be way behind. This reflects long DoD procurement cycles.

People working in highly classified environments tend to stagnate. They get stuck on old technology. That's why I got out of that sort of thing.
Sort of.

You can check this out, it says a few positive things about America near the end: https://redsails.org/what-is-capitalism/

edit:

Can't reply (HN being silly as usual) but, regarding being scandalized at the American-capitalist essence of Nazism... I mean, didn't Hitler look to America for inspiration?

Didn't the term "Untermensch" come from "under man" in the works of Lothrop Stoddard, an American?

From Hitler’s infamous Mein Kampf [My Struggle], published in 1925:

>There is today one state in which at least weak beginnings toward a better conception [of citizenship laws] are noticeable. Of course, it is not our model German Republic, but the American Union, in which an effort is made to consult reason at least partially. By refusing immigration on principle to elements in poor health, by simply excluding certain races from naturalization, it professes in slow beginnings a view which is peculiar to the folkish state concept.

From Hitler's 1942 recollections:

>The struggle we are waging [in Crimea] against the Partisans resembles very much the struggle in North America against the Red Indians. Victory will go to the strong, and strength is on our side. At all costs we will establish law and order there. […] Saxony, for example, will enjoy an unprecedented trade boom, and we shall create for her a most profitable export market, which it will be the task of Saxon inventive genius to develop.

There's a whole book about it: Hitler's American Model.

https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691172422/hi...

I don't see anything wrong with the argument. A few good things are said about American efficiency, and that's what I think history will say in the end.
There's a bitemporal Datomic-like database from JUXT that does exactly that, I believe https://www.xtdb.com
This is true if your end goal is to have a super fast program but that is very rarely the case. The GTA online loading times issues went unnoticed for years because Rockstar just didn't care that the loading times were long. Users still played the game and spent a ton of money.

Performance hotspots often are the difference between acceptable and unacceptable performance. I'm sure I'm not the only person who has seen that be the case many times.
If you are good at it, programming gives you instant positive feedback which results in a burst of endorphins that are released.

Like a constant runner's high, almost an addiction
I think the big difference between this person and me is the sign of the slope on that "happiness while coding" graph. The older I've gotten (and I'm a bit older than them) the less I've felt the need to always be creating something intellectually.

I'm very happy that people like them exist though, I have friends who are similar but their chosen pursuits are mathematics or physics and it seems to bring them a similar amount of fulfillment.
Microsoft: Windows 10 22H2 is the final version of Windows 10
This is me too. Learning by doing means making mistakes in real life rather than things remaining in the realm of intellectual exercise where everything is neat and tidy.

Some people have a linear happy path to learning — they seem to be able to acquire all the right knowledge and avoid mistakes.

But I learn from doing the wrong things — the resulting cognitive dissonance burns the lesson into my head. This is an expensive way to learn because you have to make a lot of mistakes and bear the resulting shame. But over time I learned to avoid fatal mistakes and make the merely stupid ones.

I’ve always been inspired by a quote by Goro Shimura about his colleague Yutaka Taniyama (both of the Taniyama Shimura Conjecture fame, which led to the proof of Fermat’s last theorem):

“He was not a very careful person as a mathematician. He made a lot of mistakes. But he made mistakes in a good direction. I tried to imitate him. But I've realized that it's very difficult to make good mistakes.”
I think I might be in the minority based on other comments here.

I hate things like Siri and whatever Android phones have.

It's incredibly rude every time I hear someone almost yelling into their phone in public. They get frustrated Siri doesn't work and loudly and slowly say whatever it is again like being mean to a dumb child.

People speak out entire text messages and the replies. I'm not pointing out folks with disabilities. I'm talking about perfectly healthy adults who seem to have no sense of awareness around them.

On my phone, I found it infuriating that Apple just inserted this Siri icon into the keyboard next to the spacebar. It took me a while to figure out how to disable it. I already have large hands, but my typing accuracy is pretty good and fast. When that icon was there, it reduced the width of the spacebar and return keys and made it impossible to type without Siri popping up every few lines.

I think more broadly I have a prejudice against devices listening to me. I've never liked Alexa, Siri, or any other voice based automation system like customer support phone trees. Very rarely I've encounter a phone system that works well, but mostly these devices and systems are just infuriating to work with.
On Alexa I run many times simultaneously. Didn't know it was a special feature. I just name them.

Latest update(?) it quit announcing expiration by name if only one was running. Just beeps, and maybe I forgot what it was supposed to be timing. Annoying.

Especially annoying if more than one person in the house is setting timers.
Here's another interesting idea: the marketing blurb mentions reducing costly errors—but with the amount ChatGPT hallucinates, how does this work? What steps have been taken to mitigate hallucination?
Even more fascinating are the followup tweets in which they elaborate that it is a drop in basal energy expenditure responsible for these drops in the total rather than (as I, at least, was expecting) a drop in active energy expenditure.
Eh, I get the position here. Different device classes, different markets.

I've gotten more than a few apps approved on tv, watch, Mac, iOS, iPad. They are distinctly different. As much as Apple is helping us leverage 'one code base to rule them all' there are so many gotchas and detail required to make great experiences on each.
Additionally if one cares about performance, knowing C or C++ is also a must.
Google Cloud region currently down due to water intrusion
We have millions of customers of which most don't know what an IP is. They mostly have a standard network, wired PCs, wifi devices, consoles etc. like 99% of all people. They browse facebook and instagram, search on google and watch youtube videos all over IPv6 without even knowing. Yes there where network engineers involved to make this work but without some engineers you wouldn't have IPv4 either.
"Fast-forward 2 minutes" to skip commercials made watching on the Apple TV way better than watching on my laptop, especially for sports.
Casey does say that almost always you don't need to "optimize", but rather just need to think about the execution of your code on hardware. This video isn't quite as nuanced, but he does talk about this in other ones.
Pilots yes, but when you travel nationwide or international, your local helicopter can't make it. So other than your main office location and home, you're probably just chartering a pilot and helicopter. Statistically I'm sure it's ok, but my gut says I wouldn't do it. I also don't let my friends drive if we're going anywhere either.
Bravo, I wish I had read this when I was a young "free market" idealist.
And then, at some point, hacking systems becomes a lot more fun than playing video games.

A lot of kids learned about hacking (the good and the bad kind) this way.
I use chromium for work/dev. Brave for personal stuff (including on my phone). It's actually been a while since I've used Firefox.
How do you deal with designs whose netlist or part list exceeds the context size limit?
Pretty much the same in my country. And, as I've heard, there was surprisingly non-zero number of "invalid" requests.
While they did some shady stuff with their browser in the past, the search engine is surprisingly good and their relation with the community is pretty decent, I wish more search providers start providing their own results instead of using Bing API.
