These are the latest generation, not mid-tier. Mid-tier is your 3060 IMO, and will probably become 3080 with the release of these new cards. That mid-tier 3060 gives you 4k gaming or HD gaming at 60+Hz refresh. I think the release strategy seems to mostly work, keeping mid-tier gaming rigs on par or better with latest gen consoles and about a 3-5 year lifespan. PC gaming would not exist if the pricing was exploitive, because the bulk of the market would switch to consoles even though the games themselves are more expensive.
Even in suburbs, parking can be used as a talking point to block densification projects. Oh no, we're going to build a 10-storey apartment, where are the residents going to park??//
8088 were 16-bit CPUs, it’s just Intel had its memory bus limited to 8 lines.
How about watching with friend and family? I would hate to watch a tv show with my wife and both have face masks on…. Or hockey game with friends and all with masks
States are sovereign except for specific roles and powers explicitly reserved for the federal government or otherwise restricted from the states. These aren't provinces, theyre more like European countries in the EU.
This sounds like fan fiction. I do my best work distraction free. Seeing expensive cars... have you met engineers? We are the biggest collection of cheapasses on the planet!

Where do you get that from? Nothing about geosynchronous satellites is mentioned in the article?

Completely agree. Especially since most languages are designed to be simple and even "stupid simple". That's a good thing! There's nothing inherently smart or talented in having to wrestle with a complicated language just to get stuff done.
It is interesting through ;-)

Personally, I will probably introduce some of it to a project I'm working on. Here's why:

* It's relatively conservative - almost of all its work is done in compile time. Once you have a binary and it went through testing then Manifold is irrelevant.

* It's open source - I know it's not the same as "support" but the project has been around for a while and the author is active.

* Worst case scenario I can remove it - it would suck since I will need to rewrite code. But the compiler will point me at the exact lines of code I need to fix.
Sounds like you could train AI to not only ID a specific individual, but also characteristics about them like race or health and use it to discriminate.
That's really interesting, thanks for sharing!

Prikler's suggested syntax feels apt, as sugar for (I imagine) a set of native Guile parameters around the remaining fields of the package definition. Infrastructure will need created to implement inheritance, possibly at the level of fluids, in a manner that complies with the Guix maintainers preferences.

Thinking about how I tended to manage my USE flags (ie. through `package.use` as a directory), I think that the balance of package-level impact and operating-system-level syntax (how will services be affected?) will be interesting to see developed
Or just fix the system so debt isn’t necessary or so easily acquired. Any time you subsidize something (aka giving free debt forgiveness) you tend to get more of it
It's not that I think they've never released a half baked or subpar product - they clearly have.

It's just that it would be a spectacular failure to read the room if it's just a better Oculus Quest for a massive multiplier of the price.

If they ship a $3000 headset into what has proven to be a niche market, then at the very least I feel they MUST feel it's a different ballgame than Oculus Quest. It's not $2500 of Apple Tax to capitalize on a small market.

Ability to read and work in VR is a potential category shift, as is the ability to see your real-world surroundings clearly, and these are things plausibly in reach of Apple's technical capabilities. So my speculation is if they ship at $3000 headset it'll be because they think they've achieved this and that it's worth the very obvious problems any strapped-to-your-face headset has.
That's the first thing that came to my mind as well. UK tech salaries are notoriously low.

Let this be a harbinger for the rest of the industry -- you can "get away" with paying far below market for talent, but you make yourself vulnerable to getting generationally leapfrogged like this because the cutting edge work in your art is happening under someone else's roof.

What they originally looked like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compaq_Portable
The motivation behind the inexpensive flashy noise makers is exactly the same as the expensive ones, except there's slightly more embarrassing pretense involved, you have to make sure you don't get shown up by someone with an actual exotic when you're cruising around in your me too discount version. So-called supercars, unlike rolls or Bentleys or similar, derive their association with quality from the ability to hit certain theoretical numbers on a drag strip or a race track. When a basic $40,000 family car can do the same it rather knocks the entire mystique out from underneath these things. There's no more basis for pretending that it's about performance or speed.

In all cases they are all pretending that they are interested in the speed as if it is a proxy for their ability to appreciate the fine technology and precision engineering of their automobiles. When in reality a Toyota Prius is equally if not more an accomplishment of refined technology than any exotic.

The whole thing is just an excuse to project an image of wealth and status to impress strangers and play a one-upsmanship game with the rest of your interest group, very much like watches except with the ability to annoy the neighbors as a petty power tripping bonus on the side.
Agreed. But your choices are now the 4060 to 16gb for $500 or a way more expensive 3090/4090 with 24gb and the power draw to go with it.

I just don’t care that much about fidelity on my TVs. By far the majority on content we watch on TV is YouTube and news, where immersiveness is actually undesirable. And nobody in my house can tell the difference between 4k and HD, so I’ve always opted for the cheaper HD Netflix plan.

So for me, a more immersive viewing experience isn’t worth the hassle of needing to strap a device to my head.
Since there is so much attention on just a few models now AMD could probably make some big inroads by producing some affordable very high memory cards and porting a few models to them... while nvidia continues to limit consumer hardware ram to market differentiate with their high end products.
Bash is a user interface. The fact that you can string together words and symbols and make logic happen is basically just back-porting advanced user functionality into an existing interface.

Having said that, Bash is my favorite programming language, because it is so limiting, and simultaneously not limiting, because it wasn't designed to fulfill what A Real Programmer(TM) thinks a programming language should be.

A computer is supposed to serve a human. Not the other way around. But modern programmers, being wildly unimaginative creatures of habit, think the user is supposed to serve the computer. That the more you type, and the more hoops you jump through, the more "clever" you are with the "way" you tell the machine to do something, that this is superior. Never mind that the end result of all this incantation and tom-foolery doesn't actually result in a good outcome half the time. That the user is often unhappy with the result, if they even factor into the programmer's thinking at all. No, the true purpose of programming is to gratify the programmer and make the machine happy, not to make a human's life easier.

Programming is a mistake. It's a half-measure. A stutter in the evolution of digital computing. We weren't meant to program, we were meant to make a synthetic invention that relieved us of our labor. And what do we have to show for spending 1/3 of our life, and decades of work, for it? A metal and plastic box that can do pretty much exactly the same real work as 30 years ago, but with better graphics, because the hardware people gave us better screens.
How can I buy their products? Unfortunately its the easiest thing in the world to drop a bunch of money on a beautiful product that I love to use. Of course I feel gross for doing so. If someone else made a product which was as nice to use but without compromising my ethics, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. But that product doesn't exist.

Apple is the the only big tech company which at least nominally cares about user privacy. Google, culturally, doesn't really make any products which don't depend on their cloud services. Last time I owned an android phone, I tried saying no to most of the modals google throws up asking permission to upload my personal data. Some features broke in horrible ways - presumably the devs didn't actually test what happens when people refuse consent dialogs. And lots of features become flat out unavailable. For example, their AI assistant. Despite all that, they still ended up storing more data on me than I'm comfortable with. I think android is only a viable OS if you let google track everything you do. I don't want that, either.

On the computer side, the framework laptops look lovely. I've moved to linux for my desktop workstation and my next laptop might be a framework laptop. But there are absolutely compromises. Battery life isn't as good. Linux isn't as cohesive as macos - keyboard shortcuts are all over the place. I tried to configure linux to feel like macos but some apps won't let you use the meta key as a modifier key. Linux doesn't integrate with an iphone at all. Being able to copy+paste from laptop to phone is an absolutely killer feature. Or take a photo and airdrop it across. Or stop my phone alarm by talking to a siri smart speaker elsewhere in my house.

There are no options for everyday computing that I'm entirely happy with. For now, like it or not, Apple has my business.
My 3070 has 8gb vram. I’d rather have 16gb of vram of the 4060 Ti for a few hundred less than I paid for mine.

This is a great tool. The api surface takes a bit to figure out, and navigating manipulating the syntax tree can require some trial and error, but I’ve used this to do large scale refactors that would have been very time consuming if done by hand.

99% of the time the tools provided by jetbrains / vscode are more than sufficient, but 1% of the time a tool like this saves you a bunch of time, both searching for what you need to change and making the changes you want.
Why 8088? All the good DOS stuff requires at least a 286. You’re pretty much limited to extremely early 80s software with that.
So, this is a case against the slash (not the guitar player)? Commas and "and" are fine but not "/"?

Ohhh, c'mon.

Ask HN: Is there a DiffusionBee for chat LLMs?
I am not directly wired in to everything Large Language Model (LLM) that is going on. Still, I would like to play occasionally occasionally with whatever the new hotness is without generating an account and handing off my phone number to some other stranger.

For visual / image AI, DiffusionBee[0] has been satisfying that itch.

Is there a similar "know-nothing" application for large-language models / chat language models?

The creator of this machine also made a palmtop 386 - https://youtu.be/JI71ELzd498 .

They're both beautiful machines!

I found them a couple of days ago, and the 386 was already sold out. I was hoping to eventually pick up one of the 8088s; but it looks like they'll disappear now too.
Again, it doesn’t mean streets cease to exist.

Old world streets are narrow and sometimes cobblestone. Usually enough.

Compare that with the 50 foot wide boulevards of suburbia, USA. One job I had you couldn’t even cross the street for half a mile because it was built like a freeway.
They are good about supporting latest JDK release and all LTS releases, going back to 8.

It’s Oracle’s saber rattling lately concerning plugins like Lombok and Manifold that make me more disappointed than nervous.
4060 Ti is big news for generative ai and llm hobbyists on a budget.
That's just a calculator. What this guy is saying is actual construction costs, not estimated. Well, it's a bit of an estimation too, but one of the 2 reactors he mentions was actually built and hooked to the grid.

In any case, this is great news. Other recently built reactors were horribly delayed and over-budget. India shows the entire world you can deliver on time and on budget, and it does not have to be expensive.

About two years ago, some random blogger, Austin Vernon [1] wrote a piece that lots of people here on HN read, and which basically stated that there's no way for nuclear to become cheap. Among other arguments one was that half of a nuclear power plant is basically the steam turbine and generator of a coal power plant. And since coal power plants have been around for hundreds of years, and they are still expensive, there's no reason to expect they'll become cheaper anytime soon, so even if the nuclear part of a nuclear power plant comes for free, you couldn't compete with solar. Lots of people on HN bought that argument. It's incorrect, but for a subtle reason: nuclear power plants work at low temperatures (less than 350 Celsius), and have low thermal efficiency. That's not a big problem, because uranium has one million times the energy density of coal. But with coal, if you want to be competitive, you want as high efficiency as possible (above 50%), and for that you need supercritical, or even ultra-supercritical steam. And that technology is very expensive. But Austin Vernon does not mention anything about these nuances.

Regardless, theory is theory and practice is practice. India is showing that cheap nuclear power plants are possible, so something must be wrong with Austin Vernon's arguments.

what is happening with me is I start to consume less and less content online. Many movies and series are crap and I don't like them. Video games the same. I'm not sure it is because I'm getting older and have the classic it used to better before syndrome. But what is happening and this is probably due to getting older I am more careful what I spend my time on. Consuming crap content or in a way it is a crappy experience... fuck that I will go outside and touch some gras.
There was a time in the past were it made sense though. Lots of C++ shops had just recently moved to C++ for new projects but still had plenty of existing code written in C.
Why? Buggy drivers? No CUDA?
Malls are an imperfect substitute for urbanism. Malls have closing hours, streets don't. Malls are usually surrounded by moats of parking so that drivers get priority and pedestrians / transit riders have walk a long and dangerous way into the mall. Malls can kick you out for loitering or if they don't like how you look.

It is true that some people use suburban malls as urban replacements. Teenagers use it for hanging out with friends, seniors use it for walking, and some sit and daydream. But the mall is not a real replacement for urbanism.
The point of the of course very different hammer example was that it’s the same contract and it’s a perfectly moral contract: give money, receive a thing, and that’s it. You seem to be arguing that they should keep doing things for you because they can and it benefits you, and I agree that they can and it benefits you, but it’s also at a cost to them, which I don’t think they have a moral obligation to pay unless that was part of the sale to you.

Maybe communication is a root issue here. I think both of us could agree that they should make sure people know before buying whether they’ll be getting updates, and for how long.
Then don’t do live transcoding on basic hardware.

Sending subtitles is sending a text file, not some monumental task. Even a cpu version of whisper only needs to be run once (and can be done by the uploader).

Not all devices need to do the same amount of work. Not all the work needs to happen when the screen is on and on battery power.

End users also don’t want to be bombarded with ads and spied on for the privilege of being bombarded with them.
There is the Quest 2 at that price. The problem is that it’s at least right now just not a great gaming platform. I played the crown jewel - half life alyx (by connecting to a gaming pc that can run it), and it was fine but quite awkward. The default movement scheme is one where you teleport around the room because walking is too nauseating I guess.
Idrive.com (backup) blocks VPN – without any message
Backup failed and attempts to reach the website timed out. Everything else worked fine, even Google worked without popping up a captcha.

Turns out iDrive is blocking certain IPs used by my VPN (Mullvad)... no message, just a timeout. I switched to a different VPN location and it worked fine.

It seems to me that even if a bad actor has caused an IP address to get blocked, the right response would be some type of message (as opposed to a timeout).
Right that is why i mentioned sports viewing as probably the main exception. I would be very curious to see the stats on percentage of media viewing alone vs couples vs groups. My bet would be the majority is solo even for families and couples in terms of all total viewing but maybe I am off.

A thousand years ago human populations were memetically isolated by geography. That changed somewhat with the printing press, but the internet puts us all in the same meme sphere.

There are only 330 million English speakers in the United States, of the 1.5-2 billion worldwide. Yellowstone could kill everyone in North America and English would still be the most common language on Earth.
I’m 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I’ll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.
It’s a prerequisite that must be fixed to restore public transport in this area:

The minor hue change of the picture makes them both published for "substantially the same purpose" i.e. subject-aggrandizement for being in position X at time Y.

AI training doesn't preserve position nor the purpose of a photograph's subject like photoshop does, it amasses a style from corpus as probabilities. Upstream it's not substantial copying of a single work, downstream it's substantial restyling into any new imagined purpose. Slam dunk.
> I just don't think society currently has an appetite for a $3000 product that gives the wearer visual superpowers (that is the promise after all) and is an impossible to ignore distinction between classes.

Entire industries are built upon impossible to ignore distinction between classes - 100 thousand dollar watches, 10 million dollar cars, designer clothing, and a thousand other examples that come under the category of "bling".

While I have similar doubts about the short to medium term AR/XR future, I don't think it's based on people not wanting to be seen as better than everyone else. As a society we basically encourage that behaviour.

I've seen people on here complain about YouTube's ads without any will to consider the need to buy premium at all.

However this is different, this is going to absolute extremes. Pause screen ads is just absolutely ridiculous. This is about inching out every last little bit of engagement from the user as possible.
Yes, as a user I prefer Safari to all be alternatives on macOS.
You are right, the commenter implied that.

> I assume some many continue to exist but employees will also have to get used to large pay cuts if that's a hard requirement for them.

Some companies are losing their more experienced employees when they force RTO. If they want to compete for this portion of the talent pool, they'll need to offer more than the other remote first companies.
Then purchase what? From what I understand most consumer router manufacturers do push automatic updates. Usually installed when the router is power cycled.

I didn't own a car for about 7 years while I lived in different countries. I can't say sometimes I didn't miss it, but I managed just fine.

Last year we moved to the US, and we couldn't last 6 months without a car. I mean, technically we could, but it made life so extremely inconvenient as to not be worth it. Also, the alternative was to use tons of Ubers, which I'm not entirely convinced counts as ditching the car.
EVs will not reduce tire particulate pollution. In fact they will make it worse.

If you actually check, they do offer subscriptions in the app. I just downloaded it and checked it out myself. Click the … icon, then Settings, then “Upgrade to ChatGPT Plus”. It’s the same price point as if you buy directly from OpenAI, but Apple gets 15% or 30%.
detaro is correct. At the time, that was the way the words were used. Makes sense to me to use the historical language in this context. At any rate, I think it's pretty safe to say the author is not confused.
