Huh? It does work well. It's just an ordinary raspberry pi. No modifications. I upgraded to using my pi 4 though. I just toss it in a workout armband along with a battery pack whenever I feel like it. Input device can be whatever you want. I usually use a bluetooth media remote since that's a keyboard with a trackpad that easily fits in my pocket. Real world battery life of almost 8 hours on a 10000mAh pack including the vufine plugged in at all times despite its internal battery.

Maybe the only thing I sort of had to hack together was the stupid mount for the vufine which is a bit cheap and flimsy. This is a necessary mod anyway if you buy one of these and want to use it for anything serious. I dremeled out a channel on the magnetic mount and ran a velcro zip tie through that. Holds onto a pair of glasses very firmly now. I added a second velcro strap around the body of it for stability. I can even go out for a jog no problems. All the cables I use are thin and lightweight (meant for connecting HDMI on a drone).

It's such a cheap and obvious idea that you can unregretfully drunk buy all the parts on amazon right now for probably less than I paid back then and you'd still just have a pile of otherwise useful stuff. The hunt for durable low-profile and L-angled cables needed to cram it all into a pocket is the expensive part, but you might even already have a pile of those.
one approcach with golang is make interface that can be leaked if you really want, you will be using standard interface 99% but if you need sth not provided by abstraction you can ask for underlying impl `db.Driver()` and cast to appropriate type.
I'd also like to start taking steps toward a society with less work. There will come a time when human work simply isn't needed: when robots can do the physical labor and AIs can do the mental labor--perhaps not in our lifetimes, but it will happen. And even now, we don't need to be working as much as we do.
Still under investigation, alas. First guess was a popped lithium battery downstairs but the fire dept has ruled that out now.
Copenhagen is 600k. Shitty weather year-round, predicting the next point of pro car dependency arguments.
Let me guess, mandatory cultural education and engagement camps?
I feel the same way about computers of the 70s, 80s, and early 90s. I owned several of them, used them a lot (mostly programming for fun), and much of the experience just sucked. I do not understand the appeal of retrocomputing. But I'm happy that there are a lot of options for people who like that sort of thing.
Amsterdam is not an isolated example for the Netherlands where density can easily match a mid sized US city. Further, the density of a downtown district in that same town could easily match the density of a block in Amsterdam (the buildings are only 2 to 4 stories tall)

The examples from those other towns and general strategies employed could easily translate to a smaller town. Alternatively, that smaller town could use towns in the Netherlands as a template for growth rather than say LA
I really appreciate the reply and found another no-option. I would like to do something less... "abstract". I would definitly agree that crypto has meaningful usecases, but I guess it is not so easy to find those that are meaningful to me.
Most people don't understand that what separates us from anarchy is a glass wall that once broken animal nature takes over. Even people who would be considered reasonable in a civilized society can devolve into criminals quickly when put in those situations. Any inhibitions put in place by society are out of the window overnight.
Some companies they’ve been beholden to that made their lives worse:

Microsoft, Adobe, Motorola, IBM, Intel, nVidia, Qualcomm, Samsung, Metroworks, Oracle, and ATI/AMD.

They’ve done everything they can to either kick those to the curb or minimize the risk.

Sony is the one big exception I can think of. Sony makes the camera sensors and I don’t remember hearing of Sony causing issues.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Sony was next on the list after displays though.
What’s really lame is that parents have to become chauffeurs for their kids activities all damned day.

That is an Americanism I hope the rest of the world doesn’t emulate fully.

Although it's not a purely software industry, embedded development has a lot of opportunity for bare metal hand tuned optimizations
I'm sincerely curious, and not disagreeing with you: what definition of suburban are you using, and which parts of San Francisco?
Maybe you should hesitate a little before judging. How exactly are you quantifying success? I'm not sure that # of degrees means much, especially when it's obvious that this kid (or his parents) were trying to optimize that number, rather than optimizing other things, such as a meaningful childhood.
The stakes are much higher now with new security methods like Zero Trust around. On vital systems, logs aren't stored directly on the same infrastructure as host infra... That means more footprints that can snitch on a hacker, and the penalties are much higher for hacking offenses because so much more is riding on key systems now... Mitnick got a job instead of jail... That won't really happen now because there are simply too many wildly different frameworks. It also explains why most breaches are state sponsored, well funded, wide scale, and from overseas... ;\

People are hacking social media a lot for growth and money, but the best secrets are very illusive and flooded out by lies, novice content, boilerplate advice, and outright scams... The actual hackers quietly scrape pennies off of the net in micro-transactions until they start racking up as thousands of dollars, most of the time though it's heavily coordinated group activity rather than the lone kid in his parent's house like it used to be... The hacker kid now is too busy shilling crypto scams, playing video games, revving stonks, or working on yet another GPT tool that no one really needs IMO. :P
Amsterdam is hailed as some perfection, but 60% of Netherlands commutes are by car: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1013713/mode-of-transpor...
Agree - I don't know why this isn't the default, or why "all photos" needs to exist in the first place. The only valid use case I can think of is for selecting an image from a gallery in-app.
Intriguing development! It's quite refreshing to witness Bevy hopping onto the WebGPU bandwagon. I can't help but wonder about the complexity involved in transitioning an existing codebase from WebGL to WebGPU in such a compressed timeline.

On a similar note, Ambient (https://github.com/AmbientRun/Ambient) has been on my radar for their utilization of WebGPU, though they seemingly lack a tangible web demo. Anyone have any insights or comparisons to share?
> Idk, the cynic in me wonders what he actually had to do. Because for a lot of degrees the answer is basically nothing.

I'm trying to remember any college course I took out of the three degrees I have (and extra college courses outside of that) that didn't require a lot of work. I'm not sure where you are coming up with this idea that it's not a lot of work and that it's okay to downplay someone's drive and abilities. Maybe it'd be more useful for you to do some internal reflection instead of dumping this garbage out on everyone here.
Yes I rode the NYC subway for 20 years. When you are young and edgy, you can deal with it, even though I found it regularly traumatizing at that time as well (delays, trains stuck in tunnels, 100 degree subway platforms, crushing crowds, intense inconvenience if you have to carry anything beyond a single bag).

The ultimate misery, when trains fell behind and youd spend an hour or more on a completely packed, sweltering platform watching train after train fully stuffed shoulder to shoulder pass through not stopping since each train is full, until one comes where you yourself have to shove yourself and your bags into the doorway and hope the doors can close so you can just get home. Never again. I suspect anti car people just don't see these things as that big of a deal. They're young. It's all exciting to them, I guess. I didn't have a car at all back then either, the city / commuter life seemed perfect to me for many years until I began to realize I hated these things.

Forget about the crime, mental illness, and homeless issues, just being shoved among "regular" people every day, all averting gazes and attempting to cope with dense crowding among people you don't know, by the time I was older I had become a strict remote worker, and when I had a kid we were out of there at last.

I have an EV now and getting to drive is like the best part of my day. I live very far from dense cities. A lot of people genuinely like to live this way and the posts here talking about the "car industrial complex" somehow coercing us all into some way we wouldn't otherwise prefer should consider that a lot of people really don't like crowds.
Kagan's dissent is particularly thought provoking. While the majority ruled that the use was not sufficiently transformative because it was licensed to publications in the same manner as the original photograph, Kagan believes that Conde Nast could have chosen either photo to license, and that they chose the Warhol not as a substitute, but a work of its own.

"The majority holds that because Warhol licensed his work to a magazine—as Goldsmith sometimes also did—the first factor goes against him. It does not matter how different the Warhol is from the original photo—how much “new expression, meaning, or message” he added. It does not matter that the silkscreen and the photo do not have the same aesthetic characteristics and do not convey the same meaning. It does not matter that because of those dissimilarities, the magazine publisher did not view the one as a substitute for the other. All that matters is that Warhol and the publisher entered into a licensing transaction, similar to one Goldsmith might have done. Because the artist had such a commercial purpose, all the creativity in the world could not save him. ."
With so many hi-rise office buildings vacant and so many employees today trying to maintain a work-from-home arrangement maybe we should take note of the recent news that Manhattan is sinking due to the trillion ton weight of all those buildings and just demolish all the vacant buildings and consolidate businesses in the remaining units.

We mitigate some of the subsidence issues and we free up a lot of real estate for new parks and quiet spots where people can reconnect with nature in the bowels of a huge city without having to go to Central Park, etc.

This looks like a win for New Yorkers.
Are Air-pods, Apple Watch and Apple TV actually VERY important? The whole Wearables, Home and Accessories category is 10% of Apple's revenue and that includes Beats and what not.
Which is still 3x the city in question. No sale.
Some pay relocation bonuses.
According to some rumors headset will have 2x M2/M3 chips so it will have a lot of computing platform.

If they provide some dock so that headset can be used Mac mini/ultra style as desktop + VR/XR is more like a bonus then this could still sell well.
No problem. It sounds like you are in an experimental time of life. The author of this book encourages piracy:

Read it and maybe it will encourage you to rethink your disapproval of working in crypto.
Walking a mile is totally doable, but it takes some time planning.

Throwing the kid in the car 2 minutes before the bell works.

The sidewalks are often there to be used, but the car is faster and easier.

I normally walk to school but it was raining today so I drove for pickup.
I just checked, and you can buy a new Intel 8086 on digikey right now: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/rochester-electro...

The product is not even marked obsolete.
upvoting a bit. my guess we have here anti-AI vigilantes. Actually it's not a guess anymore, and not something new in general.
Rather than a one-month focused effort, i think this should be an ongoing practice, much like security
I'm willing to spend $3,000 on a device that I would want to use every day. The reason I don't spend that much on existing VR tech is that I don't want to use it.
Just with the rumor that the new Apple headset is sporting an M chip, it will likely blow everything else away in terms of potential. Apple will also be focusing on everything that isn’t gaming, meaning that XR people can finally get some work done in mixed reality. Compared to other companies, they don’t like gaming. They just put up with it because of the massive revenue.

Sure PCVR still might have better specs, but they’re primarily wired and that’s a huge con if you want to use VR for fitness and it kills immersion when you have to turn a lot. I’ve tried to mitigate this problem with hooks and pulleys on the ceiling. It didn’t help much and it caused additional issues.

You also still can’t do serious work with most of the existing standalone or PCVR headsets. Why? Because you need a minimum PPD of 35 (where 50 PPD is retina quality). To date, HP Reverb G2 and the meta Quest Pro are around 25 PPD. Only the PCVR varjo aero is at 35 PPD, but it’s wired, costs $2000, and doesn’t come with either the $600 base station / controller combo or the $3000-$4000 PC needed to power it

> You could buy a full Index kit, get the wireless upgrade for it, and then a full Vive Pro kit and its wireless upgrade, and have spent about the same amount of money.

You’re not accounting for the $2000-$3000 PC needed to run an Index or Vive Pro 2. Also both headsets are wired, and both rely on base stations. While they have the best tracking accuracy, they’re a pain to set up right and they’re one more thing you have to worry about. It’s not for normal people or even the average PC gamer. If it wasn’t for the lockdowns, I wouldn’t even have had the motivation to finish setting up my base stations. Until the pandemic hit, my PCVR sets where just languishing in their boxes. Self contained tracking is the way to go for normal people and most techies

The form factor for PCVR headsets is also terrible. It’s too intimidating for normal people to put a giant bucket on their faces. Even meta’s quest 2 suffers from this problem. This is yet another reason most people won’t even try modern 4th gen VR.

There are more downsides I can list. I'm very familiar with them because I still own both headsets including the wireless kit for the Vive. I also own the HP Reverb, the Quest 2 and Quest Pro.

As imperfect as they may be, my go to headsets are still from meta for now, mainly because of wireless which is why I’m excited for the new Apple headset
Or they are from other more immediate sources.
Do you have a reference for the whole time-passage leads an LLM to psychotic break thing? That sounds pretty interesting and would like to read more about it.
> Singapore didn't "find ways to make it work". They built that city from the ground up into what it is now.

Nonsense. Like every healthy city, it's been continuously rebuilt.

> This is a rough description of density.

Right. Bigger cities need more tall buildings (or rather, find more tall buildings worthwhile). Smaller cities don't. I don't know what it is you think I don't get.

> So go for it. Literally none of the rest of us care.

Then why are you posting about how much you don't care, and how all these schemes must be stopped?

> Every third comment here is about how they want to get rid of cars far beyond whatever traffic problems it might cause you. I doubt the intention of your movement, such as it is, to only ban them in city centers.

There are lots of people with their own intentions, but as far as I'm concerned as long as you're remediating your pollution (properly remediating it, not just buying some certificates that say you promise to not cut down some trees or something) and not killing/injuring people I don't care about you driving where there's space for it. Car drivers demanding a bunch of space in the city is what I take issue with.

> Just a year ago, we saw this movement pop up out of nowhere, and I have my doubts that it arose organically.

Now you're getting into conspiracy theory - maybe try making some friends under 45. The younger generation aren't into cars just as they aren't into guitar rock. It's been going on far longer than a year (I've been saying this stuff at least 6 years), the pandemic just made it a bit more visible.

> How do you propose that? Any anti-piss-stink policy would subvert your other social policies.

I don't know, my city doesn't have the problem, because voters wouldn't stand for it if they did. Maybe start holding your government to higher standards.

> I have zero interest in trying to solve the intractable problems your wishful thinking has dreamed up.

The only intractable problem here is in your head, and it's only intractable because you want it to be. We know these policies work. We have cities where they're working already.

While that's a step in the right direction, I've biked in areas where this is the approach, and I'll say that if I weren't in a self-destructive phase of my life at that time, I probably wouldn't have risked my life like that.

Paint doesn't make people drive slower--it's at best encouragement, and a lot of people don't. And that's when the bike lane is even clear: often it just gets used as a temporary parking area for Ubers and delivery vehicles, making it fairly useless for bikes during busy times.
A 'great' NFL/NBA game experience indeed would be the 'killer app' to make the platform, but I don't see how Apple will have something that crosses the threshold. But they probably have at least a surprise or two up their sleeves.

This will be interesting because clearly there's a high risk of failure, and Jobs was known to kill stuff that didn't full fly, I wonder if this is one of those 'momentum' projects that Execs just can't look back from?

Meta spent $25B and failed, man, that is a lot of good money after bad.

We'll have to wait to see what they announce though.
On the other hand there is always the possibility that we regress to a sort of feudal age, and the lords of the land require that all inhabitants produce children while surviving off of the allotted amount of rations, otherwise they face consequences.

Edit: Not only are there natural corrections that occur, there is also a lot of room for human-made "corrections". Is it ugly? Yes. Is it unfair? Yes. Will it ensure that the local economy continues to function? Yes. The vast majority of us in such a scenario would live in poverty.

(This is where I go off the deep end) Imo, the proliferation of LLM's will truly lead to massive amounts of people being displaced from meaningful work. I foresee that in the not-so-distant future "normal people" who didn't attend elite institutions (or who are otherwise not extraordinary in some sense) will only find "flesh work" available to them - i.e. prostitutes. As long as human flesh exists there will always be work for humans. It's dark, I know, but ask yourself if it's true.

Disclaimer: I find prostitution appalling and sad, but its existence is no secret. In my experience the people who are okay with it are either socially inept people who can't manage to hold down a partner, or socially competent people who are bored with their partner(s). In the latter case I wonder, why not just get a new partner? I didn't ask them about it because the answer doesn't actually matter to me. To them I say, "Do you", just as I would say to the poor souls who know no other way. Who am I to question how someone feeds their kids? I don't even have kids.
Wow, what happened here? These 2 companies are usually cutthroat. Has debit card transactions cut into their profits that much?
I've always suspected that you could do something interesting with a moderate density apartment complex where renting the apartment comes with the ability to use any of the X vehicles the complex owns.

It would be some bit of legal/liability wrangling and maybe some accounting to do it, but imagine if you had 50 families in a building, and ten vehicles available ranging from a small car to a pickup truck to a van to a moving truck. Tune it a bit and there you go!
> The real reason Americans own cars is because we’re rich enough to afford a more expensive and more convenient system.

Are we? When you zoom in on things like road maintenance backlogs and auto loan delinquencies, it kind of seems like we are not rich enough but have been pretending to be.
hmmm gives me an idea, thanks

back in high schools I had a zen micro mp3 player that fit snugly inside an altoids tin, drilled a hole for the headphone jack and felt pretty stylish.
What payments are you talking about? Apple doesn’t charge transaction fees for Apple Pay.
Not sure what you mean, I have passkeys enrolled from Apple, Windows and Android devices on my Google account and all trigger the same passkey prompt based on the platform implementation.

"Device-bound passkeys that do not support syncing are an option for organizations that require additional proof of provenance of a user’s passkeys".

Apple supports what sounds like roaming passkeys but device specific passkeys like you are wanting are already supported by the FIDO spec.

I think you're interpreting "no need" here as a if that's a hard requirement. Multiple FIDO hardware keys are already supported on many websites so the idea that the passkey standard mandates a 1:1 relationship doesn't make sense.
what a garbage take - Elon is radical right?!?
>In contrast, most of my engineer friends have either literally a mattress and a desk.

You’re describing my first two apartments. I only wound up buying a couch and a coffee table because I wanted to appear somewhat normal in case a woman came by my apartment.
It's not either or, they are used together. Once you become even an intermediate learner of the language lack of kanji actually makes it more difficult to read text that is just in kana. Japanese and Chinese can also present the interesting problem for a learner of perfectly understanding what a written sentence means without having the ability to actually say it out loud.

Also excluding names, there are less than two thousand kanji in modern Japanese. Still a lot but not some insurmountable task.
I took computer programming classes at my local community college as a freshman in high school. I learned COBOL! It was a great experience. I encourage any parents to persuade their children to take a class or two at the local community college, especially parents of kids like me who were bored-as-fuck in high school and just stared out the window all day.
A bit part of getting to better places is not worrying too much about the costs. You still need the departments monitoring for fraud, but otherwise once a decision is made you stick with it and move on to the next question. Over time that starts to snowball.
Great channel. Very informative, interesting and tasty. I also recommend it.

Max Miller also just published a cookbook:

Modern as in built for 2002?
What is sad about having a 6 year old console that just had a title sell 10 million copies in 3 days?
