If I am not mistaken: nobody buys video game console hardware, it is actually "an access fee", and they provide freely the hardware, which you don't own.

The thing is nintendo has to recover the hardware and properly dispose of it (recycle/refurbish for another user). They should be regulated to do that properly, if this is the current model in place.

Because if people were to buy and own the hardware, users would need full control over it and nintendo would have to provide everything (without technical hypocritism) for that. Don't know if there are explicit laws about that, but this is common sense in "free countries".
Why does no one ever mention these are “gamey” physics, I’m currently playing the game they cut so many corners with regards to realism I’m not really all that impressed with its unconditional stability. Energy is not conserved, interaction with stacks is limited, and I’m sure they have some tiered constraint system in place to break ties for gameplay purposes.

I mean, I’m sure it was quite am engineering effort getting it to this point and integrating it deeply in the gameworld, but the flabbergasted comments are a bit much.

I know what it’s like to be in a long-term relationship that is effectively a marriage already, and while a good partner (looking past the gender issue with the language now) does take the effort to provide emotional support and even sex, I don’t think that it’s mature nor healthy to call such choices “responsibilities”, because responsibilities are things that people have the obligation to do regardless of their emotional and mental well-being.

Offhand remarks on HN is, without sarcasm, probably the best way to stumble across good great books.
Not entirely true, but sadly very close.

Way too many posts of getting Doom running on toasters and pregnancy tests make the front page, but not much else.

For example, there's a game called System Shock (a remake of a seminal game) that came out yesterday after being 7 years in development, where you play as a hacker against an out of control AI.

I'm a fan, so obviously I'm biased, but I find it quite intriguing there is not one single mention of this anywhere on a site that calls itself Hacker News and is obsessed with AI (particularly the GPT kind).

Well, I'm slightly disappointed, but I guess I should just "expect the unexpected".
Kelnos, there are a few things you seem to not understand about these things in general. Fundamental things.

I've heard your point before, many years ago with regard to Blu-ray protections.

From a security/threat perspective, that is true, which is why the threat model is turned into an iterative process that can be updated arbitrarily.

It is understood the amount of labor required to break the model is specialized labor and limited, and there are mechanisms that can be used to isolate and target the sources of that limited labor when they communicate about forbidden knowledge like the internals which are kept as trade secrets, and then punished under the law.

They already embed mechanisms that cause devices to brick. There were several devices where they had to issue a firmware update to get around a fault caused by one of their updates with regards to an internal battery that caused bricking when it lost power. This is very common, and if you can't prove they did it; its just natural end to the lifecycle where you'll have to payup again for a worse product.
That’s the point of designing it improperly so it fails early and only keeping spare parts available for a year or consistently out of stock.

The supply chain issues are hurting the servicing part, repair feasibility, and manufacturing part.

"Lore" has infested all of nerd media. You'd think it would make stories richer, but it has such a shaping effect on story that they all feel the same. Every character has a background, every history has a history, politics, different timelines, multiverse and alternate dimensions, hard magic, aliens, etc. etc.

Somehow every story from comics books to video games fall into the lore trap and comes out looking like a kitchen sink of tropes.

Impressive, this'll cut down on my work a lot. When I say Bing, I meant Bing AI which also uses GPT-4. Can you share some of the prompts you've been using? I'm assuming you don't need to paste in context around the library, you simply ask it to use TipTap and it'll do that?
All the other mobile cliets could switch to a compatible backend API as well. Apollo is only an iOS client. There are a number of Android and ross-platform clients as well. Such as RedditIsFun or Baconreader or Infinity. What would be missing is a web frontend.
GPS is a system for distributing time first and a means of computing position second.

A GPSDO is typically a PLL that uses the recovered timebase as a reference input and will have an incredibly slow loop filter. It can be outrageously highly damped and stable.

Such clocks are the basis of the cell network and have made doing client handoff between towers almost easy. The hard part is operating through GPS denial (mostly due to weather).
This is a sliding scale though; types in C and types in Haskell aren't the same. Most statically languages sit somewhere between the two extremes, where few veer towards the right.

As a consequence, a lot of peoples primary experience with type systems is limited to "this should return a list of strings", which like you said, is one small class of problems (though I'd argue it's huge win compared to not having that guarantee).

Every project needs tests, but like all things, what happens in practice is seldom ideal and thus the more you can offset to (reliable) automated tools the better.

That's a fair point. Tooling is an important aspect of a language, at least for me. I don't know what the VS Code on Linux experience is like for .net.

I tried to dip my toes into F# out of curiosity, and it worked by following some tutorial and VS Code. But it did seem somewhat bare bones. Although I'll admit I'm spoiled by Rust and IntelliJ.
Were cars really? Hard to do an apples to apples comparison but there are so many safety and other features in cars that didn't mostly exist then. Cars do tend to last longer today, especially in areas with salt on the roads in the winter, but I'd be surprised if their purchase prices were less today in general.

Computers certainly. In the mid-80s, a very middle of the road PC or PC clone would probably be close to $10K in today's dollars. (Of course, the Lisa was known for being--overly--expensive and engineering workstations were pricey as well. Individuals mostly wouldn't have bought either.)
I've reported some bugs and one thing that I always hate is the GPG Key. It is always a huge hassle to use for some reason and for half of the time it doesn't even seem correct or the other party isn't even using it themselves anymore.

If you are an average person and you notice that changing the ID in the URL to another number gives you access to data you should not see; you aren't some elite hacker as many of the news articles try to portray you. So expecting from them to use a GPG Key while they only have their ISP provided webmail will be near impossible for them to do under half a days work.

Especially as most GPG tools are very unfriendly to use.

I would do it for 10k but not for 30k. And of course you're not allowed to DIY it.
As a recent college grad, I was struggling to find job interviews this
year and decided to be a bit creative. I scoured Google for humans.txt files containing job openings, and discovered a couple of relevant
ones, such as Expensify's (https://www.expensify.com/humans.txt) and my favorite from Tumblr (https://www.tumblr.com/humans.txt). Expensify even got back to me for an interview!

My hope is that one of these days, I will stumble upon a company that hides secret job openings in their .plan files - accessible through the finger protocol (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_(protocol)) :)

See: "finger @lsc.mit.edu" and "finger seattle@graph.no" for some examples.

FTA:

“If we restrict access to xylazine, what’s next, you know? Drug dealers are never going to stop coming up with something to sell,” said Beddis. “Instead, we should learn more about this drug, introduce new protocols for treating people and try to get ahead of the problem.”

That argument also applies to heroin. Fentanyl was the “next” for heroin.

I know it won’t fly in the USA, but I think a sensible policy would be to try and get addicts on heroin and, where possible, from there to methadone.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroin-assisted_treatment:

“a type of Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) where semi-synthetic heroin is prescribed to opiate addicts who do not benefit from, or cannot tolerate, treatment with one of the established drugs used in opiate replacement therapy such as methadone or buprenorphine (brand name Subutex). For this group of patients, heroin-assisted treatment has proven superior in improving their social and health situation. It has also been shown to save money, as it significantly reduces costs incurred by trials, incarceration, health interventions and delinquency. It has also drastically reduced overdose deaths in the countries utilizing it, as patients take their dose in a controlled, professionally supervised setting, and Narcan (naloxone) is on hand in the case of an accidental overdose.”
This sounds like an in pipe(/cable) dream... First, you need that pair of cables for the UK (assuming your math and physics work out). Then you need at least 10 times that for the rest of Europe. Then we have all those cables in the water, in different places at the coasts of sea bound countries. We need to then split all of it up and transport it inland into all those countries.

Even if the first part is even feasible, that second part is another world of hurt. Oh, and the part before the first part, where we fill Africa with solar to provide the world with electricity for 12-ish hours a day. The geopolitics of this all are going to be pretty much impossible to figure out and that's before any actual engineering can even begin to be done.

> There are an estimated 30 parking apps in use in the UK. To pay, a user must find the right app to download, set up a payment account and find the right location for the car park.

You know, this is where China is getting it right: Everyone is using WeChat and it pays for everything, and presumably you just need one copy of it on your device to do all that.

Now the UK must be a market ripe for consolidation. How is parking done in the States? Janky QR codes are part of it, I've heard.

It seems like you could just set up NFC scanners or tap-to-pay and be done with it, but they want you to have an account.

The transit system here launched mobile fares in January, and sure enough, they've continued to neglect and remove fare vending machines. The last time I rode the train, I was forced to use a slightly more expensive card that I'd pre-purchased, because neither machine would put out, and I didn't feel like using the app again.

The duct tape insulation at the bottom of the heat sink is a pretty bad idea, better use some mica and/or some stand-offs for this. Duct tape has some insulating properties but simply isn't made for this application and given the voltages in play I would definitely not use it.

Otherwise: this is a neat little inverter, it's basically a minor variation on the application note for the driver which does all of the heavy (PWM) lifting.

If you can't get transformers that are large enough you can put several in parallel using a small series resistance if the output voltage isn't exactly right (usually a case of one winding too many or too little on the secondary (now primary)).

Be careful too with those HV caps, those can hold charge for much longer than you might think when they are out-of-circuit. If you can use a higher voltage (48V preferred), and go for a transformerless design because that's so much nicer to haul around (besides being much cheaper).
If anything, the Romans (e.g. Vitruvius) actually _knew_ lead could be bad but even then decided it was best overall.

TBH that's not really been an issue of note at any of the big iron farms I've been around since the 1980s .. generally there's a disciplined approach to maintaining 24/7/365 operation (that includes scheduled downtime for equipment checks) part of which is process documentation and justification and soft means of freezing | migrating processes+data etc.

Geometries in MVT are just points, lines and polygons. These may be associated with zero or more key-values. The default 'viewport' (in SVG terms) is 4096x4096px, with geometries extending beyond this to allow for overlapping text labels, etc.

SVG could represent anything MVT can -- but files would be much larger, as MVT is optimized to store the data efficiently.

Worth noting that 6000 cycles of the most extreme hypothetical 180 mile round trip would take 15 years, assuming the ship always travels at its max speed of 10 knots, and always charges and discharges at its max rate of 0.33C. Realistic load and duty cycle would be much less than that, so lifetime would be multiples. This ship may or may not have a plausible use case, but it doesn’t sound like cycle life would be the limiting factor.

I think that compilers + human supervision results on the best assembly code gen.

Compilers are great at vectorization, but they can fail at very trivial examples, e.g.:

typedef struct { char a, b; } S;
void zeroB(S *s, size_t n) {
for (; --n; ++s) s->b = 0;
}
I'm skeptical that GPG encryption is really useful for such reports anyway. Any attacker with access to important email addresses that would receive such reports probably already has a higher level of access than whatever is being reported. And in the case of bug reports, I don't think being able to verify the sender is all that important.
