Why not say "I prefer X" instead of "you are too stupid to do X"?

Which might be a legit point and could lead to an interesting conversation...
Silicon Valley and investor nepotism. The sad reality is that tech, no matter what size, is an elite club. Some get to play, some don’t.
That's the problem with the weak popular vocabulary. 'Toxic' can mean just about anything.
That "Void" switch design is so elegant. Being able fine-tune the activation force and even change from linear to tactile with just a different magnet arrangement is so cool.

why would that be?

"everything in the world is about sex, except sex, which is about power"
it depends on the motivation for going to movies. i like watching movies alone, because i don't want to be disturbed when focusing on the story. if i were someone who really enjoyed the big screen, i'd happily go to a movie theater by myself too. as it is, i don't care about big screens and high resolution as much, so my tv or computer screen at home is enough. that leaves going to movies for social events, which i actually don't like as much as it invariably leads to more disruptions.
Also, a friend who is not your cheerleader for every dumb thing you do and bad trait you have, is not necessarily toxic.

You could be toxic, and they could just be pointing out things you need to hear.

People here the BS gurus to "clear the toxic people from their lives" and often estrange themselves from the people who actually care most for them...
I can for sure confirm that this happens! It comes from good intentions, of course.
On top of that, the water in per calorie out is not great.

IIUC, it takes more water to produce a single almond (~7 calories) than an orange (~45 calories).
They don’t do the same thing at all

> One major difference: EDX is a “noncustodial” exchange, meaning it doesn’t directly handle its customers’ digital assets. Instead, EDX runs a marketplace where firms agree to execute trades of coins and dollars, using its platform to agree on prices. Then the firms move crypto and cash between each other to settle the trades. Later this year, EDX plans to launch a clearinghouse to facilitate the process of settling trades, but even then it plans to use third-party banks and a crypto custodian to hold customer assets.

> In contrast, crypto exchanges typically require their customers to park their digital coins in wallets run by the exchange, creating the risk that the exchange could lose the funds or be tempted to misuse them.

VW was required to fund Electrify America ($2B) as part of their Diselgate settlement with the US goverment, and they were prohibited from branding them as VW as part of the deal (hence the EA brand). EA has tried to get additional funding with not so great results.

Might be able to salvage the network if they add or swap out for NACS plugs (opening up to the mass market EVs), but if they can't make the unit economics work and increase utilization, those EA stations are going to end up abandoned with the enterprise shuttering.

Yup, I have had an EV for 5 years and I now fast charge on the road only about 2x/year.
If you can charge at home, work, or both.. you will likely end up in a similar position.

Once it's powered on for 10 minutes, the heat causes the materials to expand.

Soon thereafter, the thrust from the cooling fans causes the tv to leave forever, but for those first few minutes it is a viewing experience beyond any other. Just last week, one was spotted cruising past the freeway at low altitude, out to sea. Some say it is still going.

Mind you, the display technology doesn't produce mind excess heat. That would be the smart-tv cpu as it loads up a barrage of ads with which to torment watchers with. Skip ad 14:56s
Yup. We're just now (as in the last year) starting to see bugs with our first-generation Chromeboxes (Asus CN60) that reached end-of-life in 2019 and stopped getting updates. Some server-side change has been intermittently causing them to fail to boot into the Kiosk Mode Chrome app lately. It sucks that we're looking at replacing perfectly good hardware just because of Google's unwillingness to continue providing updates.
I like a lot of Google things, but buying something for its "general purpose OS" seems especially goofy. In my experience, it's just Linux minus the literal exact licensing and philosophy that, over time, made Linux good.

In trade for that, you get a reasonably nice UI, a few more features, but most of all a very strong likelihood that Google drops support for you like a bad habit.
Are these cheaper than Beightsign players?
The only difference is the security transport / authentication, otherwise if functions the exact same way.

The original RFC for SFTP was written to actually be a simpler version of FTP. While v3 seems to be the standard and the final RFC was never ratified, SFTP is still FTP.
This comes up a lot but instead of victim shaming, we need to look at the fact that a lot of small mom and pop indie businesses do not have the resources, time and need to really have a backup plan like the one you are suggesting. The cost of implementing a backup processor for a small indie business is almost always not worth it. In hindsight in this case, one could argue but no.

Instead, we need to hold Stripe responsible to do a better due diligence upfront if they want to do business with these small indie hackers. That was the point of Stripe and now they have become that giant incumbent.

I am not advocating against Stripe relaxing their rules. I am just saying that they need to do better job enforcing early on than one random day. If it was not good enough today, it was not good enough on Day 1. Stripe needs to invest in figuring that out early. Reject me on Day 1 than Day 90 or a year later.
Yes; there are 7 CSS variables to tweak and play with. I might add more in the future (for example, for `border-radius`).
I have a Tesla ~10k miles and have not used supercharger yet because I just plug the car in at home once a week.

If you estimate total pump time.

IE 35 minutes on supercharger vs 10 minutes on gas (including time to drive to station) but take into account number of times you need to actually charge up the car at a super charger. IE once every 2 months vs 3x per month, you will see that you actually spend less total time in a charger station vs gas pump.
1.4% of the 97MM~ acres of corn planted go to human consumption (figures a few years old). Big fractions go to biofuel and animal feed, a slightly smaller fraction to industrial feedstocks.

I was curious to see HN's view on removing Reddit account data. I have a couple old accounts (>12 years) with many thousands of comments. My personal perspective is that deleting all these comments, some of which contain technical help, advice, solutions, etc., would really be a net-negative for everyone.

I understand wanting to send a message to Reddit leadership, but in reality the blip is so small as to probably not even register.

On the other hand, those comments will probably be valuable to someone, somewhere, sometime and all I'd be doing is harming those future readers and salting the metaphorical earth.

Looking further into the future, let's assume Reddit collapses in 5 years in 2027. The money is dried up, management is gone, and all that's left are decades of data hopefully archived. Are people 5, 10, 20 years from now going to appreciate that a subset of data was purged in protest? Or are they going to appreciate that they found some useful data still in the archive that might actually help something?

I'd rather be in the latter camp. And maybe one day someone will ask their at-home AI bot a question about <niche topic>, and a small part of me will be emitted in the output.
Battery tech is expected to improve to the point of 1000km in 20 minutes. This means 5 minutes will give you about 100 miles. The larger problem is how we will safely scale grid generation to meet the demand.
For distance travel: yes, interstate rest stops will have a lot of chargers, many more than the number of gas pumps at those stations today.

I am not sure why there’s an assumption that crowded stalls are an indicator that the whole idea of EV vehicles is going to collapse.

In reality, it’s an indicator that many more new stalls are going to be built.
It's true in most of the US right now depending on how efficient either vehicle is. I can't check supercharger rates but EA pricing is mostly the same across the country:

EA membership pricing: $0.36/kWh

California gas prices: $4.86/gal

($4.86/gallon)/(x mpg)=$0.36/1kwh *(29kwh/100mi)

x=46.6 mpg to break even with the Chevy Bolt's efficiency in the worst case scenario for gas in the US.

A Prius and many other hybrid passenger cars easily beat that with mpg to spare.

The Nat'l average gas price of $3.58 means your car only has to beat 34.3 mpg for fuel to be cheaper than EA membership pricing or 25.7 mpg to beat guest pricing of $0.48.

If we use 24kwh/100mi for the most efficient production EV in the US at California prices the break even is 56.2 mpg, lower than the combined EPA of the most efficient hybrid (Ioniq Blue, 58 mpg).

It wasn’t, and isn’t, about API pricing. 3Ps have repeatedly expressed their understanding in that regard. It was the exorbitant rates being charged, the 30 timeline given to make the changes, and the unwillingness of Reddit corporate to even take the money of those who expressed a willingness to pay.

All of this is a result of bad faith efforts from Reddit corporate which never would have happened had it been handled differently from the outset, or adjustments made at any point in the process. Instead, Huffman has chosen the “do or die” route.
Yikes. I'd expect something in the 3 to 400 range here.

For that price, you can get a machine with 4x the memory AND storage, with a processor that runs circles around it to boot, and more I/O options...

Tbh, I find the official app very easy to use
I hope that part of the standard is that all vehicles shall have a charge plug on either front/right or back/left corners.

Making the cable longer makes the experience worse for everyone - it makes the cable heavier (harder to use), more expensive (which will end up in power prices), easier to damage (as it is dragged across the floor or driven over), more electrical losses in the cable (again, higher prices).

There are plenty of other things we have standardized for similar reasons - for example, imagine if different banks had credit cards that were different sizes so wouldn't fit in your wallet.
Stellantis has dedicated EVs in Europe. That largely why Stellantis was created in the first place. So FCA would not be totally lost on EVs. The PSA group does have EVs.

But you are correct, they are not much invested in CCS in the US. Unlike say Volkswagen.
The Stackoverflow research initiatives per generative AI are very good examples of what some enterprises can do to improve user-input text context on websites and applications.

1. Adapt user text to a standard format.
2. Correct spelling and grammar mistakes.
3. Detect inconsistencies during the input process.
I remember being in Chicago on a Sunday morning. No traffic. No pedestrians. No sound other than the wind. I was the only person in sight for a few minutes. It was eerie but cool being somewhere that would be a parking lot in 24 hours.

It's a similar feeling to being the only person in a hotel other than the employee at the front desk.
How often do you clean your rainwater collection receptacles? I clean mine out regularly.
Perhaps, but it’s also often the best way forward if one can afford it (affordability is another rabbit hole entirely). The right therapist can make an incredible difference in quality of life and, for some, can be the only way of digging oneself out of the rut that they’re in.

Having someone with an objective position who can help you see things differently is extremely powerful.
That is wildly, wildly out of line. They're out of their minds if they think 4% of songs actively attempting to be hit songs, get there. Even if we rule out obvious failures (and this class of song produces surprise hits, in part through novelty!) the number of songs trying to do this and failing is WAY higher than 97%. I'm not sure people quite understand how many songs are attempted…
The power consumption is not so much on the gpu side. Denser pixels require stronger backlights because less light gets through. So even if you were to run the screen at half the max resolution, you get worse battery life. Similarly, oled is awesome tech, but high brightness requires more energy than led backlights.
CLISP update
Oh they've definitely noticed.

> we assume $0.16/kwh electricity (residential rate here)

EIA average for industrial electricity is ~$0.14/kWh. I know around here its not uncommon for industrial users to pay all the way down to ~$0.07/kWh, there's a good bit of difference depending on how far up the line the industrial user owns which varies the delivery cost a good bit.

I definitely agree these early days in DCFC is mostly a brand mindshare and land grab play for a lot of these companies, I'm guessing they're trying to already be in the ground in all the places for when/if the market for DCFC really swings to higher demand.
They are partially off screen on my iPhone SE as well, I will certainly address this issue soon.

Maybe the laws should be changed so that freedom of association is properly only a human right, and for corporate persons, instead having it be a privilege that phases out as the corporation grows, and going away entirely for FAANG-sized corporations.
CCS1 already doesn't support 3-phase power, so it's not like switching from CCS1 to NACS in the US is losing anything there.

It wouldn't work as-is for Europe because of that, but they're so far into CCS2 adoption that they wouldn't consider it regardless.
>or how about the voters who were wearing maga hats and such who were told they couldnt vote there,

FFS, no political messaging at the voting booths.
I watched this, having had it recommended elsewhere. It's a pretty amazing story. It is a bit long but very entertaining. The achievement it eventually explains is amazing,especially for those of us who have had dual-boot Windows/Linux machines.
Has been for a long time. There's a reason why the solar panels and solar batteries are branded as Tesla and not Solar City.
It sounds like a good setup, mostly because everyone knew ahead of time what they were getting into, and understood what in-office days were going to be like!
Disagree, I enjoy hanging out in nature, and when it’s not possible I usually look at images on nature subreddits like r/earthporn. Always manages to calm me.

I assume this could be fixed by using a lambda instead of a top level function if you only want to occasionally call such a function, and don't need the whole memoization table around all the time?
This is straight up victim blaming.
> Of course without agriculture we'd all starve to death, so banning farming is no solution.

Gradually shift agricultural activity to states that do not experience drought. There's plenty of arable land in the US.

You missed the point. Given monetary value does not mean no-one is bound by the law. It's if the monetary value is so low that it doesn't matter for the particular individual that suddenly, the individual is not bound by law anymore.

Is it really that hard to understand?
Perhaps they should have thought themselves realised that it is not reasonable to expect end users to think one step ahead. Have you ever made software that was used by people?

> be complaining about how "it doesn't work"?

You just stated that it won’t work. I’m not sure why you would blame users for that, they’re not building it.

From the sounds of it, maybe I was wrong and Lemmy isn’t OK.
In some parts of America, collecting rainwater is illegal.
Most of our transfers are limited by our backbone, but because we chunk files we're able to do multiple concurrent transfers and max out traffic as best we can. We mostly have 10g links, but anything over that tends to get into serious diminishing returns in value/performance.
Just to make sure I understand your suggestion fully, you're saying:
1. Use `smallint` instead of `text` for the column type.
2. Otherwise follow our "`CHECK` constraint" approach (without it we're jeopardizing data consistency because we can store anything between -32768 and 32767 in that column).
3. Translate the int to the enum in your application.

Right?
GrapheneOS is wonderful.
What a snivelling, condescending attitude toward others. Of course people are able to say no and cancel, it just doesn't work. That's the whole point of this thread!

The appeal of sending a letter isn't to avoid human contact, it's to avoid the time suck of aggravation and frustration that these dark pattern schmucks throw in the way. If it were _possible_ to tell someone on the other end of the phone to fuck off, everyone would do it. You'll get an IVR, multiple HUCAs, and if you're lucky, someone who confidently assures you that your service is now cancelled; until you go away for a month and realize you're still being billed.

The letter is both a paper trail and a recognition that it's the fastest and sanest way to get a problem resolved. That we have to resort to an anachronism is a consequence of the fucked nature of these parasitic companies and the total power imbalance between them and consumers, not a failure of will!
Employees should start associating in-office required days with just talking about a four day work week (which is probably another anathema thing to management).
Native enums in Postgres just seem to have many more drawbacks than advantages. I never really used them, it didn't seem worth it.

I usually use C# Enums translated by EF Core now, which works perfectly fine on the C# side. The only missing part would be to give the DB the information about the enum names, so it could show those to me instead of just the raw numbers. But I assume there is no way to do that. Adding entire tables just doesn't seem worth it for this use case alone.
> Those millions of 5 star reviews are definitely not fake/bought

That looks cool.

To the author: I am writing a book Safe For Humans AI that is similar to my last LangChain/LlamaIndex book, but I want all models and code in the new book to be self-host-able. I might contact you for a talk if that is OK.
As hardware asympotically approaches a stable state (flattening of the Moore curve), languages will follow, I'd guess. Assuming quantum computing doesn't take off, this would mean that languages wouldn't have to radically change to adapt to new technological capabilities (e.g. parallelism). Betting on the future is always a risky game, however. It might be smarter to have adaptability built-in to the system (rather like how RISC-V has been set up, with a stable core plus modularity, extensions, etc.).
I’m glad there finally seems to be a push to a better standard in North America.

I’m really curious how this affects Teslas market share though going forward.

Their supercharger network is why we continue with them despite countless other issues. It’s their biggest moat as far as I’m concerned.

Now I have significantly more options, and my next car will not be a Tesla. I’m sure I’m not alone in that.

Is the brand name of being effectively the gas station of EVs worth it to them? I assume there’ll be a surcharge , so is it better for them to have the biggest slice of much smaller pies?
Thanks for the advice :) Paradoxically I'd feel more comfortable telling my life story and recent mishaps to a total stranger than to someone who I spend 8 hrs in an office with. Something to do with if it comes across wrong or people get freaked out, you're still sitting next to them for 40hrs a week until you leave the company.
Personally, I found that on my oldish (Sony X900F) TV Netflix has become faster over the years, while the rest of the (Android) TV has become slower and slower, up to the point where now apps (that once worked perfectly) now are buggy, don't open or require a Wi-Fi adapter restart.
That is another definition of censorship and I disagree with it. No, transparent censorship isn't fine. I won't use the term "throttling", because it is unfitting and manipulative in the context of past Twitter behavior.

I also doubt that in this particular case the author was informed for that matter.
I pressure washed them this spring, and bought new ones to add to them at the same time. How regularly?
My stress-reducing mid-career switch was into a non-profit company doing scientific research in an area that was important to me. I took a pay cut from my previous startup job, but I'm actually happy to go to work every day. The stakes feel lower, since it's not a race against finding product-market fit before the money runs out. At the same time, the victories feel great, because we're saving people's lives rather than selling them useless SaaS products. I can explain what my company does to people, my timelines are on the order of months rather than weeks, there is less of a feeling of constant panic, less cargo cult management style, etc.

The downsides are that the salary isn't fantastic (nor is it terrible), the career ladder doesn't go super high (fine with me) and the software side of the company is more rudimentary than I'm used to, since software is not their main focus.
Apologies for my ignorance, but what does "FDW" stand for in your comment? :)
yeah, this feels like a list of people trying to move a sub but people aren’t moving just because they tried. I checked the ‘new home’ of AITA, and the last submission was 9 days ago.
Oh wait, I always shut down by running `doas halt`, is that incorrect? >_>
It can work but for people too deep into depression it will indeed rub the lack of deep bond instead of boosting their morale.
As I understand it, it's the result to a given search string that is cached.

Sure, If I search for "44 little poney street", then the result itself is cached at Mullvad, and someone needs to search himself/herself for "44 little poney street" by entering precisely this search string to access the cached page.

So I don't see a leak with caching... There are leaks anyway: the search term sent to Google, if someone compromises Mullvad, etc... But not one specific with caching and related to other users.
This video is very informative regarding the techniques used to make the two Spider-Verse movies. I was pretty surprised by the fact they used machine learning to generate starting points for character lines (among others) !
This is unfortunately always going to be true of any technology. If there's someone willing to cut corners for convenience, they will win the majority of the audience with even a small amount of competence. And by cut corners, I mean betray and abuse and exploit their users. Quality (in security, in privacy, in functionality) creates friction, even if it's minor, and animals generally take the path of least resistance.
