I want ext4 to remain rock solid and reliable, and LVM to somehow gain btrfs's flexible block allocator so we can have easily expandable heterogeneous pools of drives. I think by this point it's clear btrfs is never gonna turn into Linux's ZFS so perhaps it'd be wise to implement its good ideas in other systems instead.
Scientists and researchers collect two decades worth of data and publish peer reviewed papers.

Genius HNer looks as the title, spouts some factually incorrect data to "debunk" it and gets upvoted to the top.

Sadly I'm not just describing this instance but internet discource in general. Critical thinking and analysis is dead in the age of "gotcha" hot takes.
Emulating IoT Firmware Made Easy: Start Hacking Without the Physical Device
Bitwarden supporter here. But I also like iCloud keychain. They have app extensions for browsers too. Not sure about Linux support. And they have totp.

KeypassXC is where I am migrating to next. I cannot rely on any server based Pwdmgr anymore after lastpass.

But every browser based manager needs to get a shoutout. Only if there was a way to sync between vendor browsers, I would be happy.
Never be made out particles. That's true.
> The fact that the students appeared to internalize the false events to the extent that they did highlights the fundamental malleability of memory

This seems like a bit of a leap to assume that this is about malleability rather than just lying to researchers and saying what they feel is expected. I could very easily imagine myself playing along with someone trying to convince me of false memories just because I don't want to put up a fight against someone who is gaslighting me.

Speaking of which, how is gaslighting students considered ethical research?
If you google Paris and you get an ad for a hotel, that isn't brainwashing. It's fun to be radical but let's stay grounded here.

Your comment didn’t address any of OP’s questions lol
You want to believe that you have control where you do not, and that the world is fair where it is not.

You might get fired because the boss is spending all the money travelling

You might get hired to do not so much for 5 years

The company might be rich because it is a monopoly

It my be poor because a bigger fish has decided to do dumping for a couple of years

You might, say, put a lot of effort on twitter right b4 the aquisition, and then, when recuperating, get fired

You might take time off, during work hours, to learn a technology, and that advances the companies interest. Or it does not, but advances yours

Your carreer is a complex thing, there are no iron reasons why the 'best' will always work, changing jobs is usually an option.
It's not an either-or. We need both.
I guess erlang is an example of keeping your flow linear, albeit at the cost of searching through the incoming event queue and thus reordering of events.
The author is a PhD student therefore he will be time-rich but money-poor so it is not surprising as you think.
I can hear the police response now. “Why are you so angry about me accusing you of committing such a heinous crime that may even bear the death penalty if you didn’t do it?”
I don't know which is more interesting, that the priests were unable to magic 'improper' red wine into 2000-year-old middle-eastener blood, or that the masses couldn't taste the difference.
Is it weird to you that some people make less money than you?
I'm sorry, it's just shocking that you are nitpicking changes to bills that the democrats put through when the alternative is 100x worse.
> It doesn't work with me, though.

That’s fine. A lot of our culture is based upon force and preserving vestiges of slavery.

This happens subconsciously. It takes a lot of reflection to understand a lot of what we’ve basically accepted as the way to go in the western economic model is beyond unfair and fucked.
It is interesting how “catastrophic forgetting” is subtly different technically between these large corpus LLMs and say a CNN, but the basic “the sequences you are looking for are not here” is the same.
I think I understand where you're coming from, but it also sounds like you are making some fundamental decisions that I would not be comfortable with outside of the work/reward equation. I can't imagine a scenario where building a business during work hours doesn't violate an employment contract, or at least isn't very unethical. I'm not prepared to do that. I also want to be good (and get better) at my job, so "giving my best" is for me, not the company. Sure they benefit, but that's a side effect. It sounds like you've got a bit of a moat, which is great, but how deep is it? Calling everyone who isn't taking a questionable to dishonest path a "sucker" might make you feel superior, but your approach is not for me so I guess I'm a sucker. I'm OK with that.
> I spent a couple hours browsing Lemmy instances today and I was shocked at how few users are needed to create replacement communities.

Mirrors my experience today as well. Dare I say, some communities like r/selfhosted seem to be better off in their Lemmy/kbin counterparts, these kind of communities benefit from the more dedicated posters anyway, and reddit alternatives seem to attract the right kind of people for them.
I think you do understand this. If you own a business, do you charge the minimum possible price and deliver the maximum possible value, well above and beyond what is required to retain and attract customers, in order that your customers may maximally benefit and profit from your hard work? Or do you make every possible attempt to capture as much profit as possible for yourself?

Economic theory and empirical study would both seem to suggest this is entirely determined not by your personal work ethic and level of entitlement, but by the amount of competition you face. If you're in a competitive industry just about anyone can enter selling a commodity good, you skate by on the tiniest profit margin necessary to survive. If you have a huge moat, regulatory burdens on competition, significant IP protection, you squeeze everyone you can and get rich.

Motos emit less CO2, but more NO, however, most motos are now adopting the EU emissions standards with Euro 5 for motos, so I think that gap is not as bad as when Myth Busters did their episode on it.

Motos are certainly less congestive especially with most cars being single driver and no passengers going into NYC.

They don't say what propellant though, but I assume whatever kind of jet fuel they used at the time.
I think the “photograph” at airports is more than that. You need to load your id onto your phone, take pictures of yourself, have them reviewed (not sure if this is automated or by a human), and be approved.

After that it’s a combination of your phone/watch plus your photo.

It’s not perfect, but it’s more than just comparing your photo to your drivers license photo.

Well, cheese is quite delicious and is not highly processed. Many kinds of seeds are delicious after a simple roasting (peanuts, sunflower seeds, pine seeds, hazelnuts, pistachio etc). Walnuts are delicious even raw. Sweet fruit such as bananas, cherries, raspberries, blueberries, mangoes, etc. are delicious. Honey is also delicious even completely unprocessed. Edit: forgot to mention steak, another lightly processed food that is one of the most delicious things you can eat.

Not to mention, there are processed staples eaten all over the world for hundreds or thousands of years without leading to widespread obesity or addiction - bread and beer being some of the oldest such examples.
When I lived in a house with a treadmill, I hooked my Macbook up to a TV and used a gamepad mapped to mouse (move, click, scroll) input to play a lot of older games while walking. It’s what inspired me to build my own remap software.

Because yeah I can’t sit at a computer to play games.
As someone afflicted with holding on to junk that might be useful someday, myself, I often pity Trump on the matter of the “boxes.”

It’s so clear that he has 1) desperately insecure compulsions to exploit information asymmetries, but also 2) a shallow bombastic character that probably rarely ever has had access to truly advantageous facts or the subtlety to effectively exploit them.

All the little glimpses into his overactive engagement with those boxes are so intimate and so pathetic. Stepping down from all those secrets beyond even what he always suspected other people had squirreled away, but also that he hasn’t been able to exploit like he always assumed he would…

It’s just a sad sad scene. Well, and also very embarrassingly stupid.

It seems funny that, in an article where the holy grail is promoted as "measure productivity on your own scale", much of the conversation is about how your actions will be interpreted by an external audience.
In case you didn't already heard from others, there's the http://xml.coverpages.org site hosting lots of pre-2000 material related to ISO 8879 (SGML) and XML. Although I didn't find too much on a quick ad-hoc search for ISO 9573, there's mention of angzarr in a preview version of ISO 9573 at http://xml.coverpages.org/ISO-PDTR-9573-13-2004.pdf by Martin Bryant and David Carlisle.

There's also casual mention of ISO 9573 on historical comp.text.sgml Usenet archives.

David and other people involved with SGML, MathML, and early entity sets for math (and chemical etc.) symbols are hanging around on the xml-dev mailing list (https://www.xml.org/xml-dev) and perhaps can tell more about the origin of that character (which looks more like a symbol for military or electrotechnical use to my totally uneducated eye).

Also, there's a typo in your post: Belisage Conference -> Balisage Conference ;)

Good luck.
Alt-tab to switch between browser tabs in Edge is new, a setting that you can turn off, and in some cases, it's actually very useful, since you can limit the number of tabs. It lets me treat recent tabs the same way as I would treat recent applications, which many websites effectively are. But anyways, that choice is made available to you.

I don't currently use multiple monitors, but I do use virtual desktops, and... that's exactly how I would expect virtual desktops to behave? If it only changed a single monitor, does that mean you'd have to go to each monitor to change to a different virtual desktop? Do you see virtual desktop configurations specific to each screen, or any screen? What happens if your screens are different resolutions. I think that Windows again has the superior implementation here.

Aero shake was pretty terrible, no arguments here.

The window history thing, Timeline, is something that I have disabed, but honestly sounds like an even better version of Recent Files, which is something many people use and might like something more full featured.
It’s a fairly common opinion even amongst fans of the Soul games. Basically everything after Anor Londo was rushed through as the budget dwindled and the game had to be released.

The catacombs are just a smudgy mess with a couple of uninteresting ennemies and a mid-boss without any worthwhile patterns. The depth is just reskinned old ennemies you have to plod through one after the other before what’s probably the worst boss in the soul games. Even the better areas like Duke’s Archive, Crystal Cave or New Londo are inferiorly designed retread of previous ideas. The true genius of the game - the looping-on-itself level design - is over and you spend your time in this very bland linear areas wishing it was over already.

Honestly if the game stopped after fighting Orstein and Smough, it would be a better game overall.

The DLC is good again however. You can tell FromSoft got additional budget for it.
> The radioactive symbol (trefoil) was invented in 1946. In 2007 a new supplementary symbol was created. Sure it still includes a trefoil, but it's smaller.

ISO 21482:

> On February 15, 2007, two groups—the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO)—jointly announced the adoption of a new ionizing radiation warning symbol to supplement the traditional trefoil symbol. The new symbol, to be used on sealed radiation sources, is aimed at alerting anyone, anywhere to the danger of being close to a strong source of ionizing radiation.[12] It depicts, on a red background, a black trefoil with waves of radiation streaming from it, along with a black skull and crossbones, and a running figure with an arrow pointing away from the scene. The radiating trefoil suggests the presence of radiation, while the red background and the skull and crossbones warn of danger. The figure running away from the scene is meant to suggest taking action to avoid the labeled material. The new symbol is not intended to be generally visible, but rather to appear on internal components of devices that house radiation sources so that if anybody attempts to disassemble such devices they will see an explicit warning not to proceed any further.[13][14]

This is The Correct Answer[tm]. Me, three months ago:

Jobs referred to early Apple TV as a "hobby". For years. Time enough for a nascent market to mature, for the technology to catch up with the ambitions.

That's how Apple/Cook should refer to Apple VR/AR.

Under promise, over deliver.

Projecting 1m unit sales the first year is nutty. Sure, they might sell that many. And then what?

Also, the initial models should be over priced, specifically targeting sexy use cases. Ridiculously expensive, maximally awesome, hype building applications. Like telemedicine, protein folding, and walking tours of fictional settlements on Mars.

Let people imagine and build boutique applications for a couple years, normalize the emerging market, before introducing a consumer mass market model.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35316716

People fluffed up by "hobby" misunderstand.

It's about managing expectations, especially of critics and Wall St.

Of course Apple is serious about AR/VR.

Citing "Moore's Law" wasn't the best word choice. Methinks it's short-hand for "Wright's Law". In this instance, it's about the displays, not the CPUs. Pixels vs transistors.

Vision Pro's displays are amazing. And expensive. And supply constrained.

Apple separately announced they'll be making their own. And they'll eventually be cheap(er) and plentiful(ler).
That's a printed font though.

BTW, Stockholm's subway used to up until very recently have dot-matrix LED signs with what I think did a neat embedded-programming trick. They could switch between a static message and scrolling text, but the scrolling text was slanted.

I think the slanting was done by varying the timing for each row of LEDs. The bottom row was scrolled first, then the next above it after a short delay, and so on.

I have been thinking of trying that trick for making scrolling text legible on a keyboard with backlit keys in a traditional row-staggered configuration. But I would first need a keyboard PCB for DIY with individually addressable LEDs.

The very first paragraph of the guidelines, written by someone that works for said VC tech incubator:

On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

The article generated 90 posts of discussion, I would say plenty of users found it interesting, even if you did not.
We are talking about spent nuclear fuel casks from civilian nuclear. Not medical isotopes that fell of a truck. We are mostly talking about many meters long fuel casks. They might get rerouted on a train once but they are rarely lost and even if they are, even during transport they are packaged to be save for a considerable amount of time.

And I couldn't find a clear indication of how many people died from civilian nuclear waste. The article you linked does not really give much information and I'm not gone read the whole report.

Every study shows that that nuclear energy has the lowest death per person. People are more likely to die during construction then anything else.
both are valid strategies, what i think is bad is when groups of people claim that broad sweeping searches are all bogus and that you must have a priori knowledge to be relevant.

there should be people dredging through petabytes of cern data like this, exploratory analysis can give you insight into things you didn't know to look for.

even if you find things that are bogus you figure out why and learn how to avoid it given the context of the data.

to say otherwise becomes a hindrance to progress. plus its not like we have any other way of predicting earthquakes, trying to read the magnetic field to predict events sounds really promising, i'd be willing to give it a shot even if it is bogus, that's just risk assessment.

You repeat this everywhere. The port requiring a flap has no bearing on the waterproofing of the battery which used an entirely separately gasket on the back cover.

You can clearly see here[0] that the gasket on the flap protects only the USB port from water ingress. The battery and sim are protected by the grey gasket on the rear cover.

The opening for the rear speakers in the back cover reinforces the fact that the flap is there to protect the interface of the USB port and its housing. The rear cover does not contact the USB port at all.

Buyers' agents barely exist in the UK but sellers' agents are very common.
You might like kakoune (https://github.com/mawww/kakoune), which does exactly that: first you select the range (which can even be disjoint, e.g. all words matching a regex), then you operate on it. By default, the selected range is the character under cursor, and multiple cursors work out of the box.

It's also generally lean and follows the Unix philosophy, e.g. by using shell script, pipes, and built-in Unix utilities to do complex operations, rather than inventing a new language (vimscript) for it.

(Not affiliated with the creator, but kakoune has been my daily driver for years now.)
Yes.

Legality might depend which country you live in, and the stores I've seen sell only tiny quantities for high prices because they can (only collectors really want it and they will pay), but you can totally just buy some.
Will this still happen when humans are in the loop?

Isn't this kind of like running an evolutionary algorithm on the models?

- AI generates 20 images

- A human picks out the best 2 images to publish to the internet.

- Eventually the 2 best images end up in the training data of a new model, while the 18 bad images get discarded.

- Successive generations of models bias more towards the better images. This might get rid of some of the defects that plague the worse images.

Humans end up being the fitness function and even the results from different models ends up mixed together!

I'm not sure that this would be a big problem for images, because there usually isn't an emphasis on correctness and validity of information. It seems more of a problem for LLMs.
I know how to make poop, bro. Been doing it for a long time now.
Unfortunately, and much to the detriment of the American people, many companies have been using SSN (or the last 4 digits, etc) as a password of sorts for decades. And with just a SSN + some other simple identifying information, an attacker could persuade a customer service representative to give them control of an account that is 'secured' in this way.
No, its because underride guards are mandated in many parts of Europe. In Germany, for example, roundabouts are far less frequent than normal turns.
That's not how it works at all. Social value is what leads to promotion in the workplace. Productive work is actually the lowest form of value in the workplace. It has always been this way. Worker bees are the lowest on the totem pole in the hive.

Such a cool project. Essentially a collection of custom HTTP clients for every supported web site.
He says:
"
Self is the part of mind that's really me, or rather, it's the part of me — that is, part of my mind — that actually does the thinking and wanting and deciding and enjoying and

suffering. It's the part that's most important to me because it's that which stays the same through all experience — the identity which ties everything together. And whether you can treat it scientifically or not, I know it's there, because it's me. Perhaps it's the sort of thing that Science can't explain
"

Your 'self' is composed of what you i-make or my-make("i-making and my-making") and its determined by what we have control of. What attributes of conscisousness leave us we can no longer say is us and so much of our comprised or exhibited consciousness is not nessicarilly always us, who we are essentially. After death our consciousness would be comprised from faculties not of the body but ever breifly of the universe. If we decide to move from that Nirvana experence back to Samsara-ing like before it's an issue of which form to take upon. Or if the friviltly and unreleased nature of samsara is finally understood (you know, if not trapped in what ILL call The Great Hell) then the 'person'/being would wanna take a left at Nirvana and say screw this and go to The Unbound, the third cosmological construct that which exists.
