That's not what alternative means. A passenger train is an alternative to a bus, but you can't drive a train on a freeway. "Alternative" in no way implies "feature parity". Getting addicted to meth and dying in a shootout with the police is an alternative to completing a medical degree and retiring to the Poconos, but they do not fill similar functions.
Most people want to build things not cores, the cores aren't the core competency. So the hope is, release what cores you have & let others improve it for you. Western Digital's swer-v core is seemingly an example of this thinking.
Yes and no. Back in the day having a tiny sbc for any type of small task at home made a ton of sense since they were so incredibly cheap. GPIO, while nice, remained a gimmick for the most part. Fast forward to the 2020's, yes SBC's have become pretty powerful. However their price has skyrocketed and availability is almost none. For the price of a raspberry pi(or less), I can get a second hand office mini atx with 16 gigs of ram, 500gb ssd, a 5-6-7-th gen quad core i5 and a good amount of USB's and video outputs. And although 4-5 years old, it is stupid fast in comparison to any pi. I still have a bunch of pi's. One is an ssh server from the outside world to my home network but that's all it does. For anything else, I have two similar mini pc's in the corner of my flat and they do a much better job than any pi. One is processing a ton of data from a subreddit I moderate, along with backups, a small ml model to quickly filter out crap and whatnot. The other hosts dozens of docker containers running self hosted stuff - time management, documents, backups and so on. And there is no denying that x86(with all it's horrors) will always offer a ton more than ARM. All of which is horrible news for the pi's.

There are some potential applications still for consumers. Namely something that recently came to my attention - the beepberry. They are currently out of stock but this is something I'd adore. Get Kali running on it, and I want two immediately: toss one in my car and one in my backpack. I cannot even begin to describe how useful this would be. Then again - kind of a niche problem which is a subset of a relatively small niche to begin with - consumer sbc.
It's a less interesting target for a lot of widespread attacks. Consider the surface area of Linux machines vs Windows? Most big corporations run on windows, even if devs rock Linux, that's not usually what these types of attacks are after.

That said you are right. Most Linux users ride on insecure machines. I remember talking to someone who had no idea they had to set up a firewall. They had switched from Linux 2 years prior under the guise that it was more secure than windows out of the box. I wish Linux security was talked about more. The people who know how to do it assume everyone does, and the people who don't... don't know what they don't know.
Does the century old continuously running lamp bulb in a fire brigade count as a computation, if a while true does?
Sure, I forgot to say that it's tabular data.

So I'm expecting to ingest data coming from dbs like postgresql/mysql, sql server, etc.

Once the data is ingested, I'll make reports and dashboards. Probably will use metabase for that.
8x throughput in what benchmark?

I would add that energy balance (i.e. don't get fat) is probably the most important thing, assuming a reasonably healthy diet. Conversely, there's no diet that will save you if you're carrying excess pounds and/or are gaining weight beyond what is the ideal body composition.

Many of the diet studies, as poor as they are, that show beneficial changes due to diet almost always involve fat loss from baseline. Whatever diet can satisfy you and keep the weight down appears to be the local optimum.
It's winner take all in a competitive scenario, maybe. Winner is all is what RISC-V is trying to make happen.
> What? I have never seen these alleged "entitled gatekeepers". I have been passed to specialists with no issue. The public sector healthcare is excellent and the same medical standard as is received in the private sector.

I saw it and "suffered" it in the UK. GP visits are terrible there: You only had 15 minutes and GPs seem to always be in a hurry. I've always had IBS and had to go through several GP appointments until they refereed me to a gastroenterologist. Once I was referred, it was pure joy and incredibly good, and I din't pay A DIME.

I also experienced it in Germany. Although it was a bit better than in the UK. My GP in Germany referred me to a specialist Gastro pretty quickly.

I am talking coming from Mexico and the Mexican system. Here we are very used to two systems: A nefarious public one which is just terrible. And a private one which is quite good and at great price. Also, for private care, you can go directly to specialists.
> I managed to solve all BF programs up to length 12.

With 8 possible instructions, that is equivalent to all programs up to 12 * log 8 = 36 bits. Curiously, that exactly matches how far we were able to analyze the behaviour of a functional busy beaver [1].

Yeah the US system of hijacking numbers that were never meant for this purpose and treating them as sufficient to take out credit in your name, and then having fifty redundant DMVs handling identification cards makes much more sense.
I think the youtube algo just serves you what it thinks will get you engaged (hate watching?). In the past I've gotten both right and left extremist content. I eventually set my youtube settings to delete everything that is older than 3 months, my feed has been way more usable since I did that. That plus using revanced to remove all the stupid shorts and news/promo sections from the app.

It's not "some beef between ThePhD and a yet-unknown member of Rust leadership", that makes it sound like it goes both way. It's a yet-unknown member of Rust leadership who apparently has a problem with ThePhD, but doesn't want to explain what that problem is, doesn't even want to make their identity known to ThePhD, and silently circumvents the normal decision-making process of the Rust Project to block ThePhD's work from making progress.

That... is a problem.

> then you can account for that and not have the algorithm register them

It’s an unsolvable problem which is why they disabled it entirely. If you “account” for “bad” input the only consequence is that those responsible for that bad input figure out how to get it classified as good input.
I see this promulgated a lot by big corpos but little uptake or enthusiasm among actual developers, nor the companies that employ them.

For compliance with various anti-data-leak standards we currently use a very janky remote development setup at work. We're working on improving this situation while maintaining compliance. The thing I keep hearing from devs is "wouldn't it be nice if we could develop pn our Macs?"

I guess the bigcorps will have to deprecate and eventually stop development on local IDEs if they really want us to work this way, but I don't see that happening.
Low latency definitely makes for a better experience, but since it's javascript running the browser, I assume typing into the editor textarea and most features will go as fast as javascript will go.

I was writing another comment based on that same example and his leaving-one-out calculations (at least based on what I understood).

The posterior vs prior would be the extreme case of a leaving-one-out procedure - leaving the only data point out there is nothing left.

The divergence between the data and the model goes down when we include information about the data in the model. That doesn't seem a controversial opinion. (That's how the blog post is introduced here: https://twitter.com/YulingYao/status/1662284440603619328)

---

If the data consists of two flips they are either equal or different (the former becomes more likely as the true probability diverges from 0.5).

a) If the data is the same, the posterior probability of that result is 3/4. The log score is 2 log(3/4) = -0.6

When we check the out-of-sample log score for each one based on the 2/3 posterior obtained from the other we get in each case a log score log(2/3) = -0.4

b) If the data is different, the posterior probability is still 1/2. The log score is 2 log(1/2) = 2 -0.7 = -1.4

When we check the out-of-sample log score for each one based on the 1/3 posterior for getting that result obtained from the other we get in each case a log score log(1/3) = -1.1
Show HN: A CLI for quickly generating 3D device mockups
Device mockups usually require expensive and manual tools like Photoshop to generate. I was willing to sacrifice absolute quality for a tool that could do the job much faster.

Mockupgen [0] generates a 3D perspective mockup from a screenshot. Using premade templates (from the amazing work of Anthony Boyd [1]) and opencv, it masks, warps and composites the provided image onto a device rendering. I'm working on expanding the selection of devices offered (mostly MacBook and iPhone at the moment), which is a matter of finding more sources of free to use PSD mockups. Currently, it doesn't do any handling of reflections and shadows, but this is in the works.

Install with: pip install mockupgen

And run with: mockupgen screenshot.png

How would a one-way hash even work? They already have a database of views for a video by its ID. If they hash those beforehand that solves nothing. They have the actual ID for that hash - they have to, cause they need to provide you data on it.

It could work similar to how haveibeenpwned works - send a prefix of the video ID and respond with a list of all matching IDs with that prefix. The server only knows the list not the actual video. The client can pull the correct ID out of the list.

(this was how HIBP worked before at least, IIRC)
Pretty wild to me that the Cortex A53 is a decade old & barely modified in it's newer forms. It's so hard to imagine so many years & a microarchitecture remaining so unchanging.

By compare Intel's been making small but OK revs to the Atom cores. And the new E-core on the new n100 replacement is monstrously faster, yet still small. A potential core-m moment for Intel, a great small chip that expands.
On one hand yes, but on the other hand the yellow press does this with everything.

By using `localStorage.my_comments`, here is another addon-script that formats the top/worst list for HN and puts the output into your clipboard:

const comments = JSON.parse(window.localStorage.getItem('my_comments'))

let text = 'My top 3 comments:\n\n'
comments.slice(0, 3).forEach((comment) => {
text = text + `- ${comment.score} - ${comment.link} - ${comment.timestamp} - Story: ${comment.onstory} - Comment: ${JSON.stringify(comment.intro)}\n\n`
})
text = text + 'My 3 worst comments:\n\n'
comments.slice(-3).forEach((comment) => {
text = text + `- ${comment.score} - ${comment.link} - ${comment.timestamp} - Story: ${comment.onstory} - Comment: ${JSON.stringify(comment.intro)}\n\n`
})
copy(text)

Please note that you need to run the script from the submission before you can run the above script.

The end fate of Hobbit at Apple is not unrelated to ARM either (https://tompittard.com/media) :

> "Tom Pittard and Paul Gavarini of ATG spotted the ARM architecture (late 1985), rightly inferring Acorn had shared 6502 experience and motives. Investigation began. Pittard and Gavarini went to work on the Möbius project. Their two-year effort created a board using a VLSI Technology ARM2 chip plus software emulating the entire Apple desktop computer lineup: a 6502 or 65C816 running Apple II code, and a 68000 running Mac code. All emulated code ran faster on the ARM2 processor than the corresponding native versions. ... Möbius terminated quietly - but Pittard kept the prototype in his office." ... "In the afterglow of Möbius, Tom Pittard did a presentation for Apple engineering teams on his benchmarks a few months after work halted. Heads turned. Of particular note were the results from Pittard's Lisp benchmarks on ARM2." ... "Tesler [Lary Tesler], a veteran of Xerox PARC and an expert on GUIs, saw Pittard's results. He grasped where the ARM architecture could take Newton [Apples first handheld device]"... "Tesler had an endgame in mind... He based that on the status of Hobbit [a competing processor design], Tom Pittard's ARM2 benchmark results, and roadmap discussions with the ARM development team."
The YouTube frontend downloads the video file (the .mp4) from googlevideo.com/videoplayback and adds it to a locally playable playlist.

However, the implementation is really wacky.

If you are online and you go to watch a video that you have previously downloaded, then instead of serving you the locally cached version through the service worker, instead the frontend redownloads the whole video.

Again, and again, every time you watch it.

So if your goal is to save mobile data, or if your goal is to save a video that might possibly be deleted in the future, it is not working.
From evolutionary perspective, merely "doing things for generations" has no direct impact on genes. (Otherwise, Jewish boys would be born without the foreskin.) However, it can have an indirect impact, if doing things is also associated with rewarding the people who do the things, and/or punishing the people who don't. For example, people living in a civilization have "domesticated" themselves by killing the criminals, i.e. the people who were least capable/willing to follow the rules of the society.

So the answer depends on whether our hypothetical stoic ancestors in the alternative universe also rewarded each other for being stoic, and or punished those who failed to be sufficiently stoic. Because there would always be a few exceptions to the rule, for example people with new mutations.

If the stoic ancestors consistently rewarded the people who demonstrated stoic virtues, for example by considering the virtues necessary for holding an important office or inheriting family property -- so that their more stoic kids would on average have better jobs, higher status, more money, and more kids that survived to adulthood (regardless of how much they would proclaim that things such as jobs, status, money, and kids don't really matter), and their less stoic kids on average ended up poor and childless -- then today, most of us would be genetically selected to be highly stoical. (Or perhaps, highly stoical until we safely get to the positions of power, and then corrupted by it.)

However, being more stoic wouldn't necessarily make us reasonable -- perhaps the stoic civilization would develop their own unreasonable behaviors. For example, I could imagine a stoic society that opposed science and progress because "meh, we don't need all that fancy new stuff; the true philosophers are content with whatever they have". Or they wouldn't develop medicine and cure diseases because "the only important thing is whether in your mind you are free"; etc.

On the other hand, if the stoic ancestors were like "eh, I don't care if that guy wants to be a king; I am okay with being a slave as long as my mind is free", then the stoics would be quickly outcompeted by... whoever showed up for the race.
My neighbor got the new i7 and the first time he tried to DC fast charge at an Electrify America station it threw a bunch of codes on screen and put his car in Limp mode. The dealership had to clear the codes and ended up flashing the firmware and erasing all of his settings and reverting the car to how it was configured at delivery.

It's probably BMW being overly cautious and not that the charger could actually harm the car, but I can say I have never had a Supercharger disable my Tesla requiring a tow.

I have only ever successful DC fast charged my Leaf about five times, I have however tried to DC Fast Charge it at least a dozen but the chargers are broken more often than not.
When there is a small amount of information the variance of any estimation is very big and this explains what happens in that example. Overfitting implies a different behavior in training and in test and this is related to a big variance in the estimation of the error. So small amount of information implies that any model suffer overfitting and big variance, so is a general result not related especifically with Bayes.

Python removing "bad" old ideas caused it to stagnate on 2.7 for a decade and probably did irreversible harm to the ecosystem as people left for languages that didn't have a nasty split in the community.

C++ has evolved tremendously so I have no idea what you're talking about there. Removing "goto" would help nothing, and the more or less deprecated features keep old codebases alive while allowing for better things (shared pointers and so on)

> The halting problem tells us that it’s plausible that that instinct is right - that for some programs, you really can’t do some other analysis of the program that tells you what it’s going to do. You have to just run it.

This isn't quite right. The halting problem says that you can't just run it. If you just run it, you will not learn whether or not it halts after any finite amount of time.

Also I don't see how this is related to uncertainty bounds.

"My" diatribe was a point for point repetition of the grandparent post with examples. And yes, I do realize that -- hence the bit about how people should not be judged by an accent? Did you read the whole post or just the bits you wanted to get mad at?

Any diatribe targeted at any ethnic group is racist?. Are you under the impression "Southerner" is an ethnic group? I am talking about a group of people who share vile political goals and have a voting majority in specific US states. I didn't say one word about ethnicity, so you might try to peddle your rage bait elsewhere.

This is a stupid rhetorical device. "If you said bad things about minorities you'd be racist!". No shit. Guess it's a good thing I'm saying bad things about people with shitty ideologies.
