Horses are incredibly fragile, and over long distances would prefer to be moving at human walking speed.

Horses also require continuous grazing to sustain themselves, and because of how their digestive tracts work, really need time to amass energy.

It's not a question of "running down a horse." It's a question of heat exchange and endurance. Humans are incredibly efficient at maintaining homeostasis "under load." Horses are not.

If you read a histories any war/conflict where there are large numbers of horses involved, a common theme is them just dropping dead of exhaustion along the side of the trail, because they can't sustain the pace of the army marching with them.
I haven't heard of startups with webassembly based products that have received millions, do you have some examples si I can look into it please?

Regarding use cases, I think there are plenty, mainly in places where you need to protect yourself against th code you're running, so pretty similar to docker, but lighter and faster boot time. Admittedly, also less feature complete and a different target: less business-y code and more system-y code.

So anything like cloud functions, database functions as described in this article, indeed web browser based games. I think Fastly is providing cloud functions at the edge that are wasm based.

With these uses cases, theoretically, an ecosystem might develop making more use cases transferable from docker to wasm, particularly use cases of isolated pieces of logic that need to be executed unitarity.
We have been happily using Depot for months now to build https://plane.dev. Prior to finding Depot, we basically gave up on building an M1 image from a GitHub action.

When you have grey hair and can look over the top rims of your glasses with a face which says "are you talking to me?" without moving a muscle - then people stop trying to tell you what to do.
As a young adult who was recently a teenager, I can't help but feel concerned about the potential dangers of having no expectation of privacy from our parents, especially when it comes to reading through our text messages.

While I understand the intention behind it, this practice can easily lead to conflicts and strained relationships.

Teenagers are at a stage in their lives where they are trying to establish their independence and develop a sense of self. By invading their privacy, parents risk undermining their trust and creating an atmosphere of constant surveillance. This not only hampers the natural process of growing up but also sends a message that their thoughts and personal space are not respected.
Depends on where you live: https://csstipendrankings.org/

NSF grants are hard to get, with a small award being for about $600K over 3 years. That translates to about $300K after the university takes its overhead. For me, that would about fund about two PhD students for 3 years for about $31K per year during the 9 month academic year. Many PhD students in computer science do internships during summer where they make a lot larger salaries, or they are funded by me for that period instead.

In my city, Rochester, according to this website, our stipends are the most generous in the USA based on the low cost of living here. https://csstipendrankings.org/

We would all like to pay students more, but either we then have fewer students or need the government to award larger grants. As someone who had a hard time getting into a PhD program due to how competitive it is, I would be opposed to depriving folks of educational opportunities.

Students typically take classes and do little research for their first 1-2 years, but they do receive a stipend during that time period.

Ask HN: How to validate an idea in the email plugin space?
Large companies in the space I'm investigating are using the benchmark (and expensive) enterprise solution, but medium and small companies aren't using anything at all.

I believe that some automation or crm plugins can be customized to do what I have in mind, but it wouldn't be as fluid.

3 small-medium companies have already given me the thumbs up to build them a demo, but I'm not sure if I should invest in an alpha or not. I've shown them mockups but it's really hard to get the idea across without showing an interactive dummy version of the app. I'd just like to not fall into the trap I fell into before where I sink lots of time and money into a beta just for everyone to change their minds and not opt in at the last second.

The sound quality of "HD Radio" sucks. It's like listening to 96 kbps MP3s off Napster back in the day. Also, cheap FM radios still don't support it because 1) it's a US-specific technology and 2) iBiquity charges (charged?) obscene licensing fees for it. Doing a quick search on Amazon, the cheapest "HD" radios are around $75 vs $10 for the cheapest analog-only models.

I interpret this as DS and 2DS games coming to Nintendo Switch Online at some point. Not terribly hard - just have the screens side-by-side, or rotate the Switch 90° for people who want the old experience.

It could even be like how Nintendo is doing the Game Boy last year, with basic Game Boy on the standard plan and GBA with the Expansion pack. Basic DS games would be on the general Online plan, and newer 2DS/3DS games with the Expansion Pack.
Seconded. I love my Nord Grand. I still use a laptop sometimes but not having to get the laptop warm/unlocked/software started in order to play is amazing. I can just sit down, flip a switch, and practice.

I am not sure whether this example is a good one. While you can probably do interception and the like in a moment's notice, planting an implant is a different thing. As zero-click exploits are still rare, you need a spear phishing campaign or the like, meaning that a person is already likely under surveillance.
Pub/Sub is a very natural fit for robotics. Companies do write ROS out of their production stacks when they get the resources. But they don’t replace pub/sub architecture.

Microsoft and Google adding LLMs to their ecosystem makes sense. But I don't see Apple adding something similar to MS Copilot to Numbers, Pages, etc. In a way, Apple seems to signal lack of hope for getting into the AI game. Soon, Apple will just be a "commodity" producer[0]: the company that makes the machines in the background, while other pioneers actually provide cutting edge technologies for those machines (e.g., local LLMs). Something like the oil companies, chip industry, etc. Apple will be making the iPhones and Macs and that's about it. They're too conservative to get out of their comfort zone now.

In a weird way, it's actually still aligned with their "think different" motto: when everyone is thinking about getting on the AI bandwagon, think different and avoid doing that!

I flatly refuse any argument that assumes buying your kid a smartphone and allowing them on social media will solve their problems of social isolation. If a child is socially isolated from their peers, that is sad, and I personally do not know how to help them. But I still don't buy the argument that FB, Insta, TikTok, etc. are the solution because, what, their peers are on them?

Also, if some of these kids are being bullied, social media can exacerbate the problem. I allude to this in another comment where I speculate that if my mother had bought me the backpack, I think these kids would have still bullied me over something similar.
Yep, this is how you get violent revolutions... people look at the average rent and an average paycheck/pension, realize they literally have nothing left to lose, and once they realize who's to blame, things (sometimes literally) explode.

Luckily (/s) we have social media to shift blame off of politicians to other groups of people, to fight eachother instead of the ones who profit from all this.

> The dependence between China and the West works both ways, and yet look what is happening.

Yes it does, but the economies of the West are so far and beyond Russia that China is not at least publicly taking a strong pro-Russia stance.

> Regardless of the reasoning why it should not, the direction is clear, and it won't be the first time that economies have been terribly damaged due to security concerns. We'll just have to leave this one to the history books.

I'm not exactly sure what you are talking about here. Would you care to elaborate? For example, I wouldn't say any direction is clear. History and humanity is far too crazy and unpredictable for that. But if I had to take a stab I'd say the direction that's clear here is that the West and its diplomatic resolve was far stronger than China or Russia anticipated, and China would prefer to stay in salvageable graces with the West than to meaningfully assist Russia - if anything it seeks to take advantage of Russia's weakened position.

> Much of the rest you write is true, but once again we come to production and transportation costs. If the price of extraction and transportation drops below a profitable level over the long term, production will drop. If Russia can extract and transport gas at a lower energy cost than any other producer can do the same for Europe, Europe will have an increased disadvantage in manufacturing until sufficiently cheap alternatives are built. You're certainly aware of this, so I'm not even clear what we're debating here.

Idk either because I was mostly responding to your specific comment regarding American strategists "being concerned" as you noted. I noted that European countries can bring online alternative energy sources, and that the energy market is more global (oil and gas specifically) so China buying Russian gas wasn't as big of a deal to American strategists as you implied.

I'm not sure the relevancy here of production and transportation costs specifically and even more specifically without specific analysis. As I noted previously, there are different grades of oil, for example. Just because a pipeline comes online doesn't mean that all of a sudden China has cheap oil and nobody else does, particularly because all they are doing is replacing suppliers in some instances and not in other instances. In the case where they are replacing suppliers those suppliers either have to take production offline, or they have to sell elsewhere. If China's demand is 100 barrels and they get 50 from Russia and 50 from Saudi Arabia and then they now get 60 from Russia and 40 from Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia is still going to sell those 10 barrels (now available on the market) or lower supply to protect prices. Again this is also an oversimplification! Nobody has provided anything other than armchair economics.

You're trying to vastly simplify the global energy and oil and gas markets to make a point, but I'm largely rejecting that point for the reasons stated previously and also here.

So now anything that was on a plane must now travel on the roads. It's not like the need to move from point A to B has been removed. Road travel has a much higher net impact on climate. How is this in any way good? The law of unintended consequences really applies here.
Similar vibe to the very last line: “Even when things go poorly, banks make it out all right."
This is probably the biggest single change to the Terminal since release. Being able to tear-out tabs required a pretty substantial rewrite of the codebase - one that's been underway for years.

We'd been actually going in a totally different direction with tab-tear out until just late last year. A colleague pointed out that one of the assumptions we had in our design (that you couldn't have multiple XAML islands in the same process on different threads) was actually _wrong_. We could just create all the Terminal HWNDs in the same process. Fortunately, we were able to pivot a lot of the earlier refactoring and quickly whip up a new solution that used a single Terminal process for all hwnds.

This had all sorts of beneficial side effects - like being able to leave the Terminal running in the background, without any windows, so that global hotkeys would work without an open terminal window. Startup perf is a little better for warm windows (when the Terminal is already running), and there's quite a lot less IPC going on. It's just a lot cleaner.

There's a bunch of other big work that went in this release - a huge rewrite of environment variable handling which whould enable hot-reloading of env vars for new tabs. Setting env vars in the settings per-profile. A massive renderer rewrite to make it even faster, enable overhangs, and better scale complex glyphs. A huge amount of startup perf optimizations. A context menu on right-click (as opposed to just pasting).

It's probably my favorite release we've ever had.
stop wasting time. Yes you can run this on any hardware. The matter is it is either too slow, requires outrageous hardware, or obviously bad (no tool required to see that it is generated).
Anyone have any experience running Windows and WSL2 with Podman Desktop? I'm running W11, with fedora in WSL2. What I've been doing with Docker Desktop is running Docker Desktop on Windows startup, and that gives me access to the docker machine in both powershell and inside my wsl2 environment (for the latter, docker-desktop installs a binary inside fedora-wsl2 at `/usr/local/bin/docker` that communicates to the host)

So far, I uninstalled Docker-Desktop and installed Podman-Desktop, and now I can run `podman` from powershell but not from fedora. I'm about to try `sudo dnf install podman` and hope it connects to the podman-machine? I dunno, it's not exactly clear

Audio ads playing at gas pumps is now the only factor that determines which gas station I go to.
I often see signs instructing to tune to whatever AM for weather info, so I don't think it's that far fetched. Kids learning to read ask questions about stuff they see.

A better analogy might be cigarettes or psychedelics.

I believe mountains of evidence strongly suggest cigs are worse for us and cause a much worse net negative harm on society via increased long-term strain on our healthcare sector. But, just like planes, people hold onto cigarettes as a right to freedom and attach unwarranted stigma on psychedelics (just like some attach unwarranted stigma on using trains).

Banning cigs in some circumstances where the other is allowed makes sense if we just think about overall human welfare, insofar as that is our goal. Same goes for planes.

Did I say that programming isn't meaningful? No, I obviously didn't. But thanks for your hostile and blinkered response.

I can think of examples of people in my life who have these professions on either side of the coin (find it meaningful, find it a drag, whatever).

I'm a programmer and find it meaningful. I also know people who are programmers and hate it. In fact, I've also worked as a chef and a teacher. I found there to be both satisfying and unsatisfying things about each of these jobs.

Clearly, different people find different work meaningful.

Having a small percentage of the jobs in society be sufficiently well compensated is a sure path to a large number of people being unsatisfied in their careers.

In a perfect world you give the LLM a python interpreter and it does the rest.

Realistically, with the LLMs we have today, the right approach is probably to curate a set of APIs it's allowed to interact with. Some basic file system access and FFmpeg support would be extremely useful on it's own.
