> Then it's definitely a case of bad positioning. The app has a limit of three or four attempts, so you're definitely running into that, but if you're seeing the app able to read some data but not reliably, then you don't have the card in the right position.

I don't think that's the case. As I mentioned, the first reads always work. But then, later, when it asks me to hold my ID card against my phone once more (for the final authentication) it always fails.

Again, I have looked up my phone's NFC wiring and I have also tried other phones. The card is in the right place.
someone should create a union a content producers and submitters, do that the biggest influencers on Reddit could easily migrate to a clone that's less shitty. it won't happen unless a large enough body leaves Reddit for greener pastures.
I joined a YC startup from an HN post, which was in some ways a great experience, and in other ways was terrible. A real mixed bag.

I still keep in touch with some of the people I worked with there and it was honestly some of the best quality people I've ever been on a team with, unfortunately the founder decided to shark everyone technical at the company after we hit a major milestone early letting go the CTO and everyone on my team, including me, and at the time I was traveling (with the company's encouragement). They stranded me in a foreign country with no severance and no working technology (no phone/laptop). I eventually sorted things out with them, and I hope they continue to succeed as I have no hard feelings, but it was definitely one of my wilder startup experiences. Just to clarify, it was definitely an issue of incompetence, not of being malicious, they had no formal HR function and just really handled things badly out of ignorance rather than a desire to cause me harm.

The experience was actually key to why I decided to stop being an engineer and become a product manager instead, so in that way it was a massively necessary moment in my career to get to where I am today. That said, I'm not sure if I'd repeat the entire experience.

I'm still surprised I can't find any halfway mainstream real estate search tools that include criteria for climate change predictions on water, fire, etc issues. Redfin will show you general stats inside specific listings, but won't let you search on them.
> This was predictable from the get go and many had had pointed that out already that soon people will start noticing that LLMs aren't as magical as they thought once the initial awe wanes away.

Familiarity makes something novel appear trivial. I don't think the magic going away has anything to do with the magic of the underlying technology. Airplanes are amazing technology, but they become as boring as a car to regular fliers.
Intelligence does not get funded the same way that everything else does. It has a history of being self-funding if necessary. This could easily all be funded off the books via a third department that simply straight-up acts as a conventional ransomware attacker. I would be deeply unsurprised most ransomware payouts ultimately land in some intelligence budget for some country somewhere.

Good luck with that. We getting a good view how markets with constrained supply work with Ozempic. On one side you have people with diabetes and circulation problems who need it as a medication to keep all their bodily appendages, and on the other side are have Elon Musk & friends who push it as if it were stimulant because they can't control their food intake.

Now try this with water. Agriculture vs golf course communities, good luck!

> Everyone acts like 20 years from now gas will be more expensive and we’ll get some coastal flooding. These people are hopelessly optimistic. it’s going to get really bad once the dominos start falling.

They're right... if they're from 30 years ago. Popular conception of climate change is wildly out of touch with reality, which is why you're right that it's going to get really bad really fast. Instead of adapting, we're largely ignoring or bandaging problems which continue to get worse.
The Nokia N950, which only made to a development edition, was much better. Unfortunately, mine met with a watery end.
> "not taking these things seriously" is very different from regulating something in it's infancy because of fear of the unknown.

I don't pretend to have the answer of what the balance is for oversight and regulation to optimize safety and innovation - but the first step for those responsible is to recognize the potential dangers and unknowns, and produce plans that can be discussed and debated.

> Even accepting this hypothesis as true, is the answer that we should have regulated cell culture in the 50s when HeLa cell culture became a thing?

How about gain-of-function research? How about nuclear weapons? I lean libertarian but also recognize we have a responsibility to safeguard humanity.
This isn’t the GP’s point; you’re being unfair to them and not reading their comment in good faith (which ironically is against the HN rules here).

I had a topic about the speed of light on askscience get deleted because the mods weren’t in the right mood that day. There is indeed a middle ground and we aren’t there.

Reddit’s model doesn’t work with what they want to do with the site. And things that worked when it had 1M, 10M users no longer do.
It does look like knowledge work will go first, it was surprisingly the easiest.

Taking control of $100,000 robots to manufacture does have value at the high-end, but still can't compete with humans at the low end.

I wonder if this can bring some human-friendly Manufacturing back to certain locations.

The environmental impact of outsourcing is incredibly large, making things closer to home with newly freed hands is probably better.

It might also help with the obesity crisis having people spend time sitting 10 hours a day less frequently.
There _is_ more than salary, but most of it would be classified as "nice-to-haves". Would I take an offer that wasn't the highest one I got if I thought the WLB or culture was better? Probably, but there's a limit. $10k less for a better WLB, sure. $50k less? Probably not.
I think looking at more from a state/regional level would be the way to go
I think it does what Reddit wants, doom-scrolling. Long interactions with a single post isn't good for revenue.

Personally I don't understand how people can use the new design. My opinion that it's terrible is one thing, but it doesn't even work. For the first few years I repeatably made bug reports, then I just gave up. The "new" design is slow as all hell, the video player doesn't work and if you want to read more than a few comments... well to bad, because 80% of them are buried and you don't get to read them. The redesign is five years old, it has been worked on for longer, and it still doesn't work.

Maybe it has attracted more people, if so, it's the wrong kind, because Reddit has developed into a cesspit of negativity. Everyone appears to have be depressed, poor, angry, hostile towards people not who thinks differently and most seems to be medicated. It not a good place to visit, if you want to keep your sanity. I'd rather debate politics on /b/ on 4chan.

The Acorn was a rebadged Psion 3 rather than a precursor. I remember as I lusted after the Psions on display in Boots as a (dorky) child, and was ecstatic when our school piloted the Acorns.

“Think of AI as generally acting as a high-end intern,” he said. “Jobs that are mostly designed as entry-level jobs to break you into a field where you do something kind of useful, but it’s also sort of a steppingstone to the next level — those are the kinds of jobs under threat.”

Every bit of this article worries me. Not because I think it's coming for my job, but because it's coming for so many other jobs.

"Experts say that even advanced AI doesn’t match the writing skills of a human: It lacks personal voice and style, and it often churns out wrong, nonsensical or biased answers. But for many companies, the cost-cutting is worth a drop in quality."

That's the part that makes me think this is going to cause some serious job losses. "the cost-cutting is worth a drop in quality." All of the AIs are pretty ok right now, and we're already seeing some (probably not many?) jobs cut because the stuff they make is "good enough". I'm worried what kids just starting college now will face in 4-5 years when they're trying to start a career.
Definitely neat and a huge flex but I think if you want to actually do multi-tenant kubernetes in kubernetes you should be using kubevirt or metal3 to bootstrap a VM and get a real kernel in there to isolate the cluster from its neighbors.

> If you've used a language like Rust before, this might feel familiar: own-lending is semantically equivalent to borrowing a &mut Random and passing it around.

Is this a typo? I trust the author meant `Random` by move, or are they speaking to low level behavior where moves are elided to nothing where possible (and thus looks like a borrow)
I suspect this will be as successful as leftist brands are: Credo mobile, various hippie brands, etc.

What's the point, anymore? There are incredibly inexpensive Celeron-based SBCs on the market that vastly outperform the pi4 in any metric you can think of.

Unless there's a pi5 on the horizon with higher clock speeds, better memory bandwidth, better I/O, more bus lanes, etc, who the hell would want a pi anymore?

We definitely relaxed our standards for kid #2 compared with kid #1 in terms of phone time.

Mainly he would watch photos and videos of himself and his big brother. We did not install any kid-specific apps and did not allow YouTube at that age.

He did enjoy Wordle - at his peak he knew how to type in around 8 different valid five letter words, which I thought was pretty impressive at age 2! His favorite was TRAIN.
And as this article indicates, many - and indeed an increasing number - of emojis are many more than 2 bytes. Flags, skin tones, groups, professions…
This is why I use previous generation Raspberry Pis and low end SBCs like OrangePi Zeros. Doing things in a constrained environment is fun and rewarding. Being able to run a full-fledged server with 512MB or less RAM is a great exercise and very enlightening to see what's possible.

When one can able to run code on these systems fast, it runs fast everywhere. Running with razor thin free space makes you prevent all memory leaks, and reduce temporary variables to save that space.

Doing great things with today's hardware is still possible, but laziness, "We needed this yesterday, I don't care about its efficiency, hardware is cheap anyway" mindset is killing things fast.
I was never into "PC Building", but had a friend who was and a few years ago they helped me build out a "Small form factor" PC, using this case: https://imgur.com/a/7xLBiC3

The case was designed to have two columns, and one side was dedicated to fitting a full sized graphics card. The other column was the rest of the computer.

The graphics card had its own fan system, but I also needed a fan glued to the CPU and then an extra one at the bottom to help spit out exhaust. The thing ran so hot, and the cords ended up just jammed into the case where they fit.

I had no experience with building PCs and was amazed I could fit a 2TB Hard drive in a tiny little stick on the motherboard, whereas X amount of years before, I would have had to install a spinning disk, much bigger. Such a huge leap forward.

The main reason I wanted this form factor was because the perceived elegance of it appealed to me. But it became clear to me through the process that "small form factor" for enthusiasts is usually more about the challenge of building in a tight space. The thing is super loud with the fans and runs super hot when using it for gaming, even with a 1080ti card.

That's one of the reasons Apple's progress with CPUs is so great to me. I don't want the entire industry to move to SoC style where everything is soldered to the motherboard, but the more efficient you can make the rest of the computer, the better cooling system you can design. Just like the M.2 form factor for SSDs was a huge leap. But even if you can't eliminate the need for active cooling, something like this would make things a lot better. I think you'd still have to design around where the exhaust blows out though.

I think it'd be better to have the ARM increase in efficiency and then maybe combine it with something like this for extra powerful models, the way graphics cards are sold with the fans attached.

Someday I'd like to be able to upgrade the build and optimize it. The dream would be to not have any fans, but some other form of active cooling, and for the machine to be basically silent, while packing a 3090+ tier graphics card.
haha, i guess AI actually solves problems.

Water recovered from sewage streams. This is how the Palo Verde nuclear plant, 45 miles from Phoenix, is cooled. It's the only large nuclear power plant in the world not located near water.

This means Phoenix would have more water if they sourced their power from elsewhere, for example from solar, since they wouldn't have to evaporate their sewer water to keep the nuclear plant running. Cooling the plant evaporates up to 100 million cubic meters (80,000 acre-feet) of water a year.
Makes me think of maps of Disneyland.

Also makes me think of my fantasies years ago of making a Disneyland-esque map for resources for homeless folks. And I no longer want to do that as I believe it essentially grows the problem.

I just want more affordable housing, better public transit and more walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods. You know: Less homelessness.

Not holding my breath, mind you. I do live in "the third world country of America." But it's what I choose to put my very limited time and effort into.

See, that is the problem right there: the things that are "beyond what's available everywhere else" are financed with ads, data mining, or both. I am talking about how much you would pay to have basic access to service. The reason that people don't pay is that everyone wants to add conditions to justify their financial support, and this is why we all end up in the mess we are all in.

Now, let me try again: go to https://communick.com/packages and tell me if you think that what I am charging for the basic access packages is unreasonable.

>The resulting behaviour appears to be that the message queues are filling up, and as a result, not only the windows themselves are becoming unresponsive, but the system as a whole is starting to respond poorly.

AT&T 4 lines (2 adults 2 kids) x $40 each + taxes = ~$200 per month, $2400 per year. This is unlimited data, text, minutes - we used to have a data cap, but the worry about the kids exceeding it when out and about was not worth the savings. We could probably ditch the unlimited minutes for at least the kids lines. We also sometimes have an upgraded phone on the bill at 0% interest over 24 months - there is generally a pretty significant discount compared to the device vendor, with the downside that AT&T does lock the device to its network for those 24 months (unless you pay off the discount you got).

I wonder how the current cell carriers have to charge $50+ to be profitable in a hyper-competitive space, but Amazon has the margins to consider throwing it in for free?
Perhaps the free tier should be jettisoned (at least in the workplace/enterprise?) in an effort to curb this? Obviously if it’s free then some companies may make these sorts of decisions. But if they have to pay then at least they will think more about eliminating their “lone” writer..
This is effectively what happens but not for that reason. Take the CIA and NSA, and then the FSB and GRU - within each you have different operational groups with different practices and techniques each uniquely developed. Some are more advanced than others based on both the spread and importance of the target. Further, within these groups they would again separate out their techniques based on the importance of targets.

Where this is an issue, which goes against your point - the groups can step on each other toes. The discovery of the broader and more detectable attacks invites attention, further scrutiny and additional forensics which may uncover the more sophisticated attacks.

Where the real deceptive action takes place is in learning how other opposing groups operate and mimicking their tactics to make the process of attribution more difficult.
The part that gets me is that just linking to a news source is enough to trigger the payments.
