Great tip. I have a couple of friends that have traveled to that region in part because of the low cost. Thanks for the suggestion.
My takeaway from all of the GPT successes and failure (the linear algebra vs riemann hypothesis cases being one example) is that language and jargon can have built in structural constraints such that by having a good LLM you can get good results because the grammatical structure happens to match reality's structure. But reality is under no constraint to conform to the grammatical structures that we use in order to communicate about related problems or solutions.

And I suppose this shouldn't be too surprising considering even logic itself runs into godelian issues. For any consistent logic there exists some statement which is true, but which does not have a proof. Which feels vaguely similar to "for any functional LLM there exists some truth which defies the next statistically likely sequence of tokens".
Bad move from Reddit's end. Apollo is one of my most used apps because I absolutely refuse to use the official app. Just like the new Reddit experience on desktop version, the mobile app is just as terrible. Clunky, slow, not user friendly. No thanks.
That doesn't make r/cigars "not safe for work." It also doesn't make it "not safe for minors." It makes it "something that reddit admins want to force users to opt into seeing."

You're also really really really missing the broader point here. By what metric should something on reddit be "opt in"? There are some things that are obvious that we all tend to agree in, and those fall into the useful mental model of "would you look at this at work?" But r/cigars does not fit into that model, yet it is still labeled as such. That means there is some other model being used to force users to opt into "sensitive" content. So what the fuck is it and why doesn't it apply to marijuana? Or fast food? Or one of a number of other unhealthy things for you?

And how many of your links apply to cigars? When was the last time you saw a 15 year old smoking a Padron? Fucking never buddy. It's a non-issue. It might play if it were cigarettes or some other trendy thing, but that's not the case here.

Only if the trains are given enough budget that there is a train every 5 minutes (or less) at every station, the train routes provide reasonable ability to get anywhere, and the trains run "fast".

No train system in the world has all of that, which in turn means they need more money and so free riders harm the system's ability to get people where they want to go.

Your best case scenario is actually a worst case scenario.

From Düsseldorf to Frankfurt, using regional trains, you have to change once in Koblenz (RE 5 to RE 2). This is a connection which takes 3 hours and 50 minutes and runs every 2 hours (with numerous other options in between).
>Do I support the protest/Reddit blackout?

>Abundantly. Unlike other social media companies like Facebook and Twitter who pay their moderators as employees, Reddit relies on volunteers to do the hard work for free. I completely understand that when tools they take to do their volunteer, important job are taken away, there is anger and frustration there. While I haven't personally mobilized anyone to participate in the blackout out of fear of retaliation from Reddit, the last thing I want is for that to feel like I don't support the folks speaking up. I wholeheartedly do.

>It's been a horrible week, and the kindness Redditors and moderators and communities have shown Apollo and other third-party apps has genuinely made it much more bearable and I am genuinely so appreciative.

>I am, admittedly, doubtful Reddit wants to listen to folks anymore so I don't see it having an effect.

Man this is just a bummer to read.
Aw yes, the war of 1839. Very relevant today.
Time-Lapse NYC Wildfire Smoke Emergency Yesterday
It’s been quite a long while but I used to make use of codementor.io for some quick jobs. My strategy was to keep rates low until I had enough ratings to slowly raise rates. You might look into that site. I don’t know if they’re setup for non-US though.

IIRC, part of the goal was weight reduction, which is a significant consideration with EVs. If you can convert the cosmetic body panels into structural elements, you can reduce the overall bill of materials.

They have since aggressively pursued large cast aluminum frame technology. This reportedly reduced the complexity of their car's frames from 100+ pcs down to 1 or 2. My guess is that they switched the trucks fully over to these Al frames as a way to homogenize their production lines. Purely conjecture, but they probably held off under the assumption that they could not produce the Al frames fast enough, but a sales slump freed up the production capability.
I understand that this issue does not probe anything?
> The more people, the more noise. Nothing particular about Germans/Germany. This is a human thing. So, taking into account the peak times, I think this is just pure common sense.

You'd think so, but they actually are really fucking quiet. Do I have to make a recording for you? People generally don't talk that much on trains, at least in Germany. Do you even live here? MOST people are on their phones, listening to music, just waiting for their next stop, or trying their best not to interact with anybody around them.

> My main point was that with the 49 euro ticket, one cannot travel as comfortably as one may think across Germany: mainly in terms of time.

If your point was about time, you would've said so and I would've agreed. Instead you went on an unnecessary and inaccurate rant because you seem to have a bug about regional trains that I don't get.

Regional trains are fairly comfortable much of the time, and the vast majority of the non-peak regional trains I take are great and the only complaints I would have are all the delays (due to flagging investment in rail infrastructure over the past 30 years), not the trains themselves. I'm not sure what else you want for 49 Euros per month for access to the entire country. Before, we got to pay 10, 20+ Euros per ticket. It's an amazing step of progress.
Yes, that's what I meant - but looking through it it's pretty straightforward, so maybe it's not totally necessary. Helpful for beginners though, and also faster for anyone to learn the parts of the codebase that are important to pay attention to.

Maybe it's silly, but I guess, relevant - I also find it just exciting to read a post filled with syntax-coloured monospace boxes strewn through it. Maybe others feel the same? Possibly it's like the code equivalence to diagrams and illustrations.
The main problem with the AWS ecosystem is you generally need to code against it directly. Much of the OSS stuff is designed to have a much more drop-in feeling, especially if you are going with stuff like Spring Cloud etc to abstract over things for you.

If you can choose an option that is going to be way less work even if it's "more complex" that is often the right choice as long as you understand what that complexity is and can pierce through the covers if necessary.
So this is like a spell check in turbo mode. Interesting.

Absolutely.

My wife had some core muscles in her back collapse. Think unable to walk and could only crawl with me holding her hips up. When she went to the primary doc, he thought it was drug seeking behavior. When she went to the ER they luckily decided that she was serious and gave her the most powerful muscle relaxant available - Valium. She had no idea, but it it saved her life.

Apollo is such an incredibly high quality app — in fact, it’s so good that I haven’t had it installed on my phone in a couple of years because when I have it I spend way too much time on Reddit.

The features, the polish, the customizability — everything about it is really top notch.
Don’t be. Sometimes businesses such as Reddit must make bad decisions so that new players emerge. That’s exactly how it’s been, and people jump to alternatives when such platforms start acting out.
Interesting and not good. Does this do this even when using a vpn?
In theory the wavefront emulator is the simplest display - all of the "pixels" are rendered in your brain so you don't have to build an actual "display"

HOWEVER if someone can get the input -> photon production pipeline to be less than ~10ms, then that does solve a lot of the rendering issues, however it doesn't solve all of the other long term problems that come with that amount of hardware - including weight and complexity.

That said, there's a lot of known-unknowns that need to be solved, for example I don't have a solution for micropiezo resonance issues that I'm sure will crop up.
I don't think they believe that, they are just gaslighting us.

Anyone that thinks so, can go to China and call our the leadership. Or go to Middle East and call out their leadership and see what happens.

They can easily do that in the US, you can get on social media, go on TV, write an article about why the president, the supreme court, senate are a bunch of idiots and keep living your life with your freedom. Try the equivalent else where if you believe it's the same. They don't and they won't because they know it's not.
Some people are being a bit negative here, but the 49 euro ticket has been a game changer in terms of how I think about public transport. I can choose to be totally spontaneous like take the metro, then local light rail to then take a train to another city and take the metro there then hop on another train to another city, hop off visit a beer garden, hop back on going this time somewhere completely random... any or even every day of the month and all for 49 euros! It's insane.

PFAS coated paper?
I commuted on my bike in the Portland area for quite some time. The rain-gear kept me dry (except my feet as I lacked anything for my shoes. Always brought a dry pair of socks). And the bike never minded the rain, even though it was often left outside during the day.

I wouldn't do that with a really nice bike (more because of the likelihood of theft than rain), but there is nothing wrong with letting your bike get a bit wet.
It's amazing how robust the human body is to surviving every little attempt to clog the gears.
I don't think you can blind it properly. Patients will probably report the care as more effective from therapists due to social conditioning and placebo effect. I recall a study where doctors in white coats were rated more effective than without by patients.
Not GP, but you have e.g. Brocken and Cologne as targets, but the former is (the summit of) a mountain, the latter a city. A categorization of the destinations (maybe based on wiki voyage metadata?) may be a good addition for your very nice web app.

BTW: You have Heligoland[1] as a reachable destination. I don't think that's actually true, those are real high sea ferries for which, AFAIK, the 49 Euro ticket is not valid. :)

This supreme court likely holds the opinion that Congress CANNOT delegate it's authority. IMO that's insane, but there are plenty of people who explicitly want that outcome, including the small subset of already rich and powerful people who actually benefit from a government that has to play dumb political games for every little detail of regulation instead of letting a standalone agency do it with express permission.

Reverse engineering the Tempur-Pedic adjustable base remote control (2019)
The keys are authenticator device specific. So if you put it on your keychain you never need to generate anything to check your email on random computers. If you use a software solution, then you need to sync the vault in some way, and again don't need to generate anything here.

If you're worried about making a brand new passkey because you're logging in from scratch, that means you need some other kind of authentication to start the process. And that's solidly outside the scope of passkeys, so it's hard to say how difficult it would be. (But if you have an alternate login method, a good system wouldn't force you to make a temporary passkey, it would just let you check your email and log out.) (Also it shouldn't take more than a minute to do key creation/deletion in any reasonable implementation.)
Everything.

Like e.g. TOS of public transportation providers only allowing usage for transit (and having some other restrictions).

It's loud.

It's bright.

No showers.

No easy way to store food clothes or similar.

The risk of being stolen from.

Generally there are most times better options even if you don't have much money.

And I mean so what if some people try to use it like that it's in practice a combo of inconvenient enough and restricted enough to not be widely abused and in turn to not lead to much cost for the train provider or inconvenience for other passengers to matter much. (Assuming you mean something like looping round and round in some public transportation network.)

Also if you mean you take a extra long one direction trip and sleep during that time then there isn't even abuse involved, you just basically used a regional train like a night train. Nothing bad. I mean why not.
I just don’t see Reddit’s response here other than “yes, turns out we are the bad guys who have been continually lying and manipulating the situation for our benefit”. I wonder if they’ll see employees quit over this. How do you trust your employer after this? I bet some subreddits will go permanently private or delete themselves over this.

Just absolutely stunning turn of events, massive kudos to Christian for recording his calls with them for over a year (legally I might add). Reddit has 0 wiggle room here.

EDIT: Just spitballing here but could an employee bring a shareholder lawsuit for negatively impacting financial outlook or destroying brand value? I feel like this is going to significantly reshape Reddit as moderators of large subreddits will be furious and quit if not destroy entire subreddits. Just look at how many big (millions and tens of millions of subscribers) subreddits are signed onto the blackout letter https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/1401qw5/incomplet...

EDIT 2: Is spez (Steve Huffman, CEO and cofounder) going to lose his job over this?

EDIT 3: Christian says in the post the refunds will cost him personally about $250,000. Does he have a claim against Reddit for that money I wonder? I'm sure lawyers are looking closely at the agreements right now.

EDIT 4: #1 Reddit Android app "Reddit is Fun" is shutting down too https://www.reddit.com/r/redditisfun/comments/144gmfq/rif_wi...

Hey, co-founder of Recall here. I'm looking forward to hearing from HN community.
This is something I've been thinking a lot about recently in the context of an area I might try to build a SaaS for.

One domain I've encountered that falls into this category is mom and pop food stores which don't typically have a decent website. You typically have to visit the store or call to find out things like what they stock and current prices (to do comparison shopping).
