Zynthian runs on a Raspberry Pi, and with a HifiBerry sound card (<$100) I'll take the Pepsi Challenge with absolutely any expensive rig. My whole point is, you don't need to spend thousands, you can spend hundreds and get the same sounds.

If you understand Midi or are willing to learn about storing snapshots and setting channels, you can set it up to be just as convenient (more convenient actually). It rewards the curious more than others, as in all nice things.

My plan - I genuinely did budget myself $6k, I have several times that much in guitar gear so I do take this seriously - is to build several dedicated ones, both for redundancy and to make sure they are extremely robust. Since I can code I'm even thinking orchestration of redundant raid-like units via a digital mixer. This will all cost a small fraction of a Nord Stage 3 and if anyone steals it, I mean, good luck to em lol

Well, there is only so much latitude for naming the event (or message, callback, whatever) sent when a window needs to repaint itself. Qt has `paintEvent()` too and nobody calls it MFC-like AFAIK. IME people mostly think about event table macros when they say it.
"Is that at all relevant for the North American market, where no one would be using three phase power to charge their car?"

Most anyone in an industrial work setting in North America will have 3-phase 240V service installed, minimum. My work has 480V 3-phase for our SMT line. We have permanently-installed charge stations on that 3-phase service. Damn shame they've got nothing for my e-bike, so I just use the benchtop inside and a cable rig.

> But that it has suggests that people see string templating as having real advantages over their alternatives and those advantages keep being compelling

I wholeheartedly disagree. Occam's razor:

Doing it the right way takes knowledge that string substitution is wrong. Many people don't have that.

Also, it's hard(er) than the simple string solution. It takes knowledge of dom APIs, or frameworks, or other things that a fresh grad wouldn't intuitively create in 5 seconds to insert a value.

Blazor is a bit special in that as a full front-end framework, it’s (for now) more for heavy apps or internal ones, as it includes essentially the whole .NET framework in webassembly :D There’s an alternative called server-side Blazor, that uses websockets to provide interactivity. It’s a front-end framework that you can write in C# without touching Javascript, the current preview brings further performance improvements, but in general it’s not "eh whatever, let’s use blazor for our new site" the same way one might use Vue or React.

All other components I’ve seen so far were pretty bad, one takes about a second for datagrid paging, another 100-300ms to open a drop-down.
I don't know if it will fix your font size problem, but this is what I have in my userContent.css for Firefox:

@-moz-document url-prefix(https://news.ycombinator.com) {
body {
background-color: #d4d4cb;
margin-top: 0;
}

#hnmain {
max-width: 960px;
}

.title {
font-size: 1.5rem !important;
}

body, td, input, textarea,
.default, .admin, .subtext, .yclinks, .pagetop, .comment, .hnname {
font-size: 1rem !important;
}

.comhead {
font-size: 0.8rem !important;
}
}

Using rem units means it respects the font size defined in my Firefox configuration. The rest is mostly about avoiding ultra wide content.
I love ideas like that, but I'd expect us to learn North Sentinelese from passive remote drone observations before we can manage a different species.
Yes Excel lately is turning into a really compelling product, using functions such as sequence (dynamic arrays), lambda (pure functions) and let (defining sub-variables). You'd think you're coding in a pure functional language, and that's great! Now, ff only Excel had a convolution function! But nonetheless it's a great GUI, everybody knows how to use it and sharing it is dead simple.

The one downside I can find is the lack of a good plotting library. And yes comments as well is something I miss a lot.
Try to write down a semi-proof as to why it can't be solved.

That is indeed some disproportionate reaction to just failing some students in introductory CS class. (So much that I feel there must be more to the story.)

This is truer than it sounds. The very design of Examinations itself is broken in most places. It shouldn't be possible by design to cheat in my opinion.

"Open-book" exams are harder to set, but I think the whole cheating-prevention infrastructure is harder, costlier, and pointless.
There is a large firey ball in the sky called the sun. Tesla captures its energy using a technology called solar panels.
Wait until the Chinese manufacturers (BYD and friends) catch up - they've been growing immensely over the last few years, and in contrast to Tesla or the legacy auto makers, they all have the limitless coffers of the CCP to back their expansion.

Personally I'd be happier if Chinese products artificially subsidized by CCP government funds be slapped with heavy tariffs to counteract that, but I don't believe that it will happen.

Is it possible to get something like this on a mobile browser or even better a decent Hacker News app that you can reply in
Comparing view source to a string template is easy. So is JSX to the DOM.

The trick is that JSX looks like a string template. Compared to building a tree of nodes (or using the DOM API), XML transforms, or other "more proper" ways to generate HTML, it's more intuitive.

Of course, there are issues with string interpolation, like XSS.

There's some interesting ideas here, like the column approach, inline comment replies, etc. However, this note:

>Hacker News UX is an early adopter of Manifest V3 which imposes stricter security to extensions.

I have to comment on that, as the Google line on MV3 being about security irks me a bit. In this case, the extensions loads for all urls with news.ycombinator.com/* and injects it's own build.js content script. It doesn't appear to do anything terrible, but it could if it wanted. It could keylog, exfiltrate data, steal your password, make HN posts on your behalf in the background, etc. Manifest V3 does nothing to police content scripts. Largely because many extensions need those kind of permissions to do anything useful.
As for the rice crop - afaik it requires a lot of water and right temperatures. If the temperatures will rise a lot, then crops will weaken and increased droughts will cut water supply for the fields. Famines are very possible I suspect in far future.
Importing food from the north is possible but not very probable. First because north would also suffer, just differently, second because the population in question is insanely huge (whole Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, East Asia etc.) I don't think enough grain for example can be imported to supplant a loss of a staple crop like rice. And just where this additional grain can be raised in the north? Suitable farmlands are already in use for agriculture. And new lands are either in bad terrain or in bad climate zones.

> The norm for planet Earth is for the environment to change drastically over millions of billions of years, though sometimes in mere moments (eg: asteroid smack). Life as we know it since its inception has also survived all of those changes.

Life itself survives, but most living things die. It would be pretty disingenuous to say "hey, an amoeba survived, who cares all other life is dead" - because somehow every second commenter seems to have the incredible insight "but the planet earth will not literally be destroyed, so why should we care".
Did you reflect on the case that actually you might be the smug one in this scenario, assuming that every person who asks a question doesn’t know what they are talking about, and you know better than them?

I have experienced this many times, and it’s extremely frustrating, when people ask for the context, and I answer something to the effect of:

> the context is quite hard to explain but I assure you I thought through this question and this is precisely what I need to know

And people will still insist that you don’t know what you are talking about and this must be an XY problem.

Even in the case that someone might be wondering down the wrong path, it’s more valuable for the community to let them make their own mistakes and learn from them. That’s how we become experts, not from blindly trusting the “authority” of people who spend a lot of time earning karma on Stack Overflow.

I think it’s good to answer a question in the form: “this seems like a strange question because X, but here is the answer”. It’s also fine to ask for context.

But it’s quite arrogant to harass someone into providing context until you are satisfied they are solving a problem in a way you deem worthy. If you don’t like the question you’re free to not engage with it.

I am not convinced that it is actually faster, though.

The tricky part of PCB design is getting the right data: pre-made footprints are wrong more often than not, and automatically retrieving things like a LED's forward voltage or current are just a pipe dream.

Doing the actual calculation takes you all of 10 seconds, and you only have to do it a few times for basically any board. Writing the shown code would probably take me longer.

One thing that my grad advisor used to emphasize is “failing fast”. That is, for every problem of the form “Is it possible to do X?”, there is a dual problem of “Can you prove it’s not possible to do X?”

Before spending far too much time on the first question, it’s worth it to spend a little bit of time on the second: what’s the quickest way to show that this can’t possibly work? Often this takes the form of looking for statements such as “If X worked, then Y would work too”, and then you go test Y. Just because Y holds, doesn’t mean X does… but if it doesn’t, you know X doesn’t.

It can feel like a bit of a diversion in the moment (“why am I wasting my time with Y, when I really care about X?”) but it has saved me months, possibly years of going down rabbit holes in my career. Likewise, it definitely helps with that anxiety you mention, because it means I at least have some motivation that my idea isn’t completely crazy.
You are correct though it's slightly more complicated than swapping out the sockets. That's enough to get NACS compatibility, but may not be sufficient for proper compatibility with Tesla's Supercharger network. It assumes the charging port is physically located on the rear left corner (or front right corner) of the vehicle.

If the charging port is on the rear right (or front left) corner, they won't line up correctly with Tesla's stalls.

> Seems like a Prius is actually cheaper per mile?

Not if you factor in all the side costs associated with owning an ICE car in maintenance. With an electric car, basically all you have to do is tire exchanges and brake pads - and less of the latter too, because most braking of an electric vehicle is done by regenerative braking so the pads aren't used at all if you're a decent driver.

I miss SAAB but they died way before bankruptcy. I had their last model 93 that was basically a reskinned Chevy Malibu. And it was very different from the post GM buyout 93 and 900s that I loved.

During Covid I got an idea to get a Saab project car and a 2001 93 cost $11k. So I guess there are a few crazy Saab lovers out there.

I hope they make a comeback. I still don’t know quite what it was about them that made me like them. It wasn’t just their oddness of being the Platypus of cars.
The article seemed to be about worldwide sales. There's no tax rebate on a Model Y (or Corolla) around here.

One of the most affecting images in my high school history book for me was of Japanese American Boy Scouts hanging a sign declaring Japanese Americans “Aliens of Enemy Nationalities.” The caption mentioned that the young men themselves were afterwards sent to internment camps. [0]

This image so affected me that I once saw a copy of the book left behind at a coffee shop and had to thumb through it to see it again.

With all the editing of history curricula that states like Florida are doing, I hope it survives. It’s is a dark chapter in American history that wasn’t that long ago.

SQL itself, as it turns out[1], has interesting work in this area: as originally envisioned, dynamic execution of SQL strings is the secondary option for using it, while the primary one is embedding SQL statements as statements in your source code, then passing it through a (DBMS-specific) preprocessor before feeding it to the host language implementation.

Unfortunately, it seems that byte strings as the ultimate ABI won out in this case.
