That's not how really how rendering works - there is no 2d or 3d, just variable complexity. On that phone, some UI activities like simple scrolling in some apps might be able to fun at a full 120Hz. Many apps apps won't, and games will either dynamically render a much lower resolution to keep up (a common performance technique), or just render nowhere near 120Hz, with sub-60 being more likely.

And that's at 4k. This thread is about higher resolutions. To give the same meh performance at 6k, the phone would have to be more than 2x as fast in every metric. At 8k, more than 4x as fast. All while staying within the same power envelope.

That's a lot to ask for in a generational bump.
The focus on nature might be a product of the time we live. However, the idea that loneliness is due to feelings of alienation beyond just interpersonal is a powerful one.

This is to say that loneliness can be thought of as not just a sense of lack of connection to other people but a connection to the world. This loneliness is evident because of our lack of consistency of our actions with results. People have a 'back to nature' kind of philosophy when they talk about it because that is the most common way to find the consistency - farm to table and all that.

But I think it's more broad. For example, Minecraft has the kind of consistency that makes a person feel more connected to, at least, that world because it is participatory and makes a kind of intuitive sense that our normal lives lack.

I know it seems reaching to correlate the two - in some way, it is. However, the thing a lonely person lacks is more than just an empty person to talk to. It's a deeper purpose which can be often found in activity with other people but isn't limited to it.

Some of the least lonely people are those with projects they are passionate about. They have a connection to the world that feels consistent but it isn't other people.
Only as a side note, the "Et tu (Brute)" is only in Shakespeare, the classic Latin being "Tu quoque (Brute, fili mi)", even if whatever was said (if anything) was more likely said in Greek which in the times of Ceasar was the language more used.
Yeah, that was my first thought too. It's a very San Francisco solution... expensive and ineffective, if not outright counterproductive, but very virtuous looking.

A building being "self-sustaining" from an all-things-considered accounting perspective is not a bad goal, but there's no reason the "self-sustaining"-ness of a building needs to be physically co-located with the building. It's not like we anticipate the building taking off into space at some point in the future where it will need this functionality on its own. It is far more sensible to work proper water recycling into all the other fees they're paying anyhow.

At college there was program where student volunteers would hang around high traffic areas and "cheer people up" by shouting at passersby to tell them they're loved or whatever. Obviously, this only makes actually depressed and lonely students feel worse. It's exactly the kind of thing that someone who'd never felt depressed in their life would come up with, and when I mentioned this to some of the people involved in the program they were absolutely flabbergasted.

It's the complete opposite when you’re in person. It’s so much more rude as your demanding their immediate attention at a time that suits you. Remote you can manage your notifications and methods of contact which is so much healthier.
I faced similar pressures in graduate school to leave out somewhat unfavorable results (which I thought were interesting and worth presenting even if they didn't flatter our approach). It wasn't the only thing that drove me away from academia, but it certainly contributed.

> “People feel more lonely when they’re around other people”

Oh it’s entirely easy to be super lonely when surrounded by other people. The easiest way to achieve this that I’ve found is being a +1 at a wedding. You’re surrounded with people you’ve never met who all know each other pretty well and have tight bonds. Makes you feel super isolated and alone in a way that just isn’t noticeable in an empty room.
I was a part of a study with San Diego state which followed my through my life until I told them to stop...

The study was to see how different people from differing socio-economic backgrounds turned out as they got older...

When I was about ~16/17 I told them to kick rocks.

They used to show up every year and interview me for an hour about how my life was progressing...

I lived on a famous hippy commune in Lafayette California until I was 4 years old... My mom knew Jim Jones (of the koolaid fame) and a bunch of other famous people from San Francisco in the 1970s...

Later, I found an article in Playboy Magazine (yes, no funny joke there) which was taken with the founder of the commune, Vik Baranco (I dont know how to spell his name) where he recvealed that the commune was being followed by the CIA...

I think the study from UCSD was a CIA front as I spoke with other kids from the commune and the weird shit that happened to them....

EDIT: my mom was doing acid with the grateful dead, fleetwod mac, and a bunch of other people... who probably dont want to be named...

anyway - the 1970s and 1980s were briliant for computers.... BECAUSE OF ACID...

Look at Cisco, they developed the core of BGP while on acid in a hot-tub in Sunnyvale...

So much of tech is tied with psychs.
I'm in the process of closing some web accounts myself. Here's what worked for me:

1. Block all charges or cancel the card, but do NOT issue charge backs just yet (there's no point burning your relationship and I've recently learned that many SaaS share a list of evil charge-backers, so it wouldn't just affect hulu).

2. Send them a registered letter, I always ask to be refunded any charges from after my first support ticket as well as refunded for the letter itself. They rarely do the latter but they always do the former.

But yeah, it's a total hassle and I've come to hate the internet lately...
channels specifically. These are queues where one side is the producer and other the consumer and they don't share a single call stack.

How do I know where the call chain goes after I have produced on a channel? There can be many subscribers on the same channel.

I guess I amasking to debug a multithreaded program to get some kind of unifrom stack trace.
Not from the roof gutter, but check what Australia is doing. In new builds, I believe water collection tanks are mandatory now. You can use that for the garden, flushing, washing, etc. The usual system is described at https://www.yourhome.gov.au/water/rainwater but I'm sure you'll find many similar ones. Some could be adapted to use in the UK at small scale.

This isn't the case. Most of the hashing algorithms have "rounds". For example, SHA1 has 80 rounds. A single round could easily be reversed by you and I. Researchers figure out clever attacks that break a larger and larger number of rounds. For example, 63 rounds of SHA were broken in 2004. When all 80 rounds are broken, the hash algorithm has failed (happened in 2017).

However, if one is happy to trade a little performance for security, you could easily multiply the number of rounds by 10 or even 100.
Yeah my child's Chromebook has this problem. Was a year-old model when bought, now is at AUE date after just 4 years. Still works really well so not sure if we should keep using or not.
> That is, the implicit assumption that all conversation on the web (and increasingly real life) is a formal debate, where every participant is an expert on every subject. It's odious and a hinderance to real discussion.

Perhaps this is caused by a general lack of humility and compassion for ones fellow man. A desire to be right over the desire to learn something new or share ones' knowledge for the benefit of others.
An ordinary 120V 15A plug can add 100km to a car over night when electricity is 1/2 to 1/4 the price of a DC fast charger. Tesla's mobile charger is $200.

The superchargers are essential is giving people the peace of mind to make the EV switch and for enabling long-distance road trips, but they just can't complete with the economics of home charging, which is where the bulk of EVs will be charged.
Funnily neither version gives the correct result when you have arguments with spaces, e.g. for "-v 5" -d , the tcl one will print {-v 5} -d as a consequence of how tcl represents lists.
So many on this list are using "Lemmy", but it seems like they explicitly don't want to recreate a reddit experience there

https://lemmy.ml/post/70280

> Lemmy.ml has always been a niche site, and it will most likely stay this way. We don’t have any intentions to turn it into a mainstream instance, or set a goal of getting as many users as possible

> having more users would force us to spend more time moderating, and less time for development. Lemmy works quite differently from big tech sites like Reddit in this regard: while they get more money with each extra user through advertising, for us it is the opposite. So we would much rather have a smaller, non-toxic, and friendly userbase, than a large one

They do seem to think someone should do it, but I think are wisely not doing it themselves

> In particular, I would like to see someone (or a group of people) create a mainstream, or liberal instance. That should help to avoid further drama, and avoid attempts to turn lemmy.ml into something that it is not.

But I don't see how this actually solves the core issues - you'd still need someone to run the main instance, they'd need revenue for it. This might take power away from Reddit right now, but does nothing to stop a new company from doing the same thing
I don’t find the mastodon instance I use to be slow, it’s a heck of a lot faster than say - reddit.

Disclaimer: I daily utilize a cheap Chromebook as a lightweight typewriter, and I love it.

However, it's important to note that Linux on this device is subject to certain restrictions:
It operates within a containerized environment, which limits both disk space allocation and system-wide access. Accessing the terminal requires navigating through a "virtual machine", and files are shared within the /mnt/chromeos directory. Additionally, the utilization of USB devices is layered behind the primary operating system support and Linux backups are separate from the overall operating system backups.
"I am alone. I'm not lonely"
> Yeah, people feel less lonely when they’re around people who they like and who like them.

Not necessarily. I often visit my mum and her partner. I love them both and they love me. Yet, I feel more lonely when I live with them than when I live alone. I can even see it in the intensity of my online chatting and dating app use. Presence of nice people just makes me more hungry for connection.

There are many brands of DCFC around me. EA obviously, EVGo, blink, 7Eleven, Road Ranger, Francis, and Volta. There's a few other travel centers on the routes I take which have their own branded chargers as well

The earlier non-Tesla charging stations definitely had a rough start as there was practically zero market at all for them. The economics will change as more EVs are on the road. I do agree most early EV owners are going to be those with easy charging at home, but people without home charging may eventually want EVs as well. Public charging station use will probably increase a good bit over the next few years.
Division by size is also very popular.

I think you're overvaluing your attempted refutation of their belief, which is a plainly stated "I didn't even try it" with no further elaboration on why they'd be wrong.

> Could it be that in the surveys which measure happiness , more social people are more likely to say they're happy?

In addition to surveys, there are interviews at regular intervals, so observations of the participants are also used as data points.

> There is a theory that I'd like to believe that everyone is equally happy over a period of time after basic necessities of life are satisfied.

Empirical evidence does not support this. There are such things as 'set points' of happiness:

Some folks have lower, and some higher, 'base levels' of happiness. It seems that some people are / can be 'inherently' happier than others.
How does your tool differ from, say, when I paste an SQL query into ChatGPT and prompt it with "Explain this SQL query for me, please"
Adjusting water chemistry is extremely prevalent in brewing. For example, if you've ever had a hazy IPA, part of the softer bitterness comes from high levels of chloride in the water. The cost of common brewing salts (gypsum, calcium chloride, etc) is a small fraction of a penny per beer.

I'm guessing that the beer brewer you spoke with was talking about the cost of buying distilled or RO water, as opposed to the cost of the water adjustment itself. It's probably a lot more economical if you're cleaning and reusing graywater, vs. trucking in distilled water, or running municipal water through an RO filter and essentially paying twice for water treatment.
... should we pump treated graywater out of cities to be used in agriculture, so agriculture's footprint of "first use" water decreases, and then actively encourage residential use to generate more gray water?

Ask HN: Tech career advice for unsexy but decently paying jobs($100k, US remote)
Context: I'm a mid career level software developer in US that was recently laid off. My family's basic expenses are taken care of by previous investments and passive cash flow, but it's not enough for discretionary spending, and health insurance.

What tech career options do exist for someone who wants to have a 9-5 tech/programming career for another decade?
Sure, I agree with all that. Although, I have two heuristics:

- 1. listening to my body's tiredness is probably a safer general strategy than pushing myself to the brink as a general strategy. It would be extremely surprising if this was not the case, going in the face of thousands of years of folk wisdom and decades of research. I'd welcome that finding since it'd be a rich source of future discoveries, turning much of common wisdom about sleep and rest upside-down

- 2. it confirms my biases about the ideas I've liked and cherry-picked from [0], [1], [2], and [3] :^) - I'm willing to update my beliefs in the face of new analyses/results, but is there really any epistemological way for me to try to derive real life benefit in a valuation-free way? At some point one makes a lossy approximation of reality in one's desired habits. At some level this is scientism, sure, since it's dangerous to assume one's observations are reality itself, but, it keeps me happy enough with the results. And it's fun to watch the meshing together of ideas over the years, as research pierces deeper into the world's veil..

I'm not the arbiter of the mechanics of internal bodily conscious experience, however, so, grains of salt and all that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My thinking as well. Let's encourage everyone to make the exodus not small.

Especially when you're a creator, you're an audience multiplier and it's worth pointing people to an alternative social site where they can also find your content.

I'd consider myself a creator, but it's all hobby and not commercial in the slightest. If you're commercial, I understand staying on reddit, but at least consider opening up a second profile elsewhere and pointing people there (while continuing to bet on both horses, so the audience can choose and you keep the audience either way).

If the algorithm was based on a theoretically hard mathematical problem perhaps...
I personally haven't experienced many of those issues. I also don't use their first party client though, just standalone Wireguard, so I can't speak to the quality of that. The only time I've had connection issues really is when they completely decommission a server, since I'm using static configs, I have to manually go in and update the server IP, but that's not really a big issue for me and is fairly rare. My experience has actually been that the servers I tend to use are quite a bit faster than they were in the past, I imagine since they've been making an effort to upgrade everything to 10gbit+.

As for IP blocking, I've also rarely encountered that, when I do it's mostly on e-commerce sites, and in those cases I typically find it's just a single exit IP that's blocked and setting up a rule for that domain to tunnel the traffic to a different server (via their SOCKS5 endpoints) fixes it. I can understand how having to do that might be an annoyance to some people, but again for me it's not really a big deal, just a few occasional minor inconveniences in an otherwise good product.

Edit: I should also say I don't really use any services like Netflix or things like that, it's my understanding that streaming sites like that almost universally block Mullvad since they make no effort to mask that their IPs are from datacenters. Again, not an issue for me, but I definitely could understand if that was a deal breaker for some.

I'm familiar with bootstrapping--both the classical bootstrap, which fits the model repeatedly on different simulated datasets to evaluate model uncertainty, and bagging, which fits the model repeatedly on different simulated datasets as inputs for ensemble learning.

Neither of those is what was done here, which was fitting the model once on a greatly inflated synthetic sample.
There are 2000 globals here, so more like a couple of shedloads. While this is something you'd sort of expect for a product that's been around 30+ years, it really seems like there's a lot of optimization that could happen and still stick with the process model.

There's quite a few situations where it does NOT exit when you'd expect it to. This is one of those. What you're seeing there is a variant of the "Short-Circuiting Considerations" discussed here:

http://redsymbol.net/articles/unofficial-bash-strict-mode/

Basically, when you short circuit, it will not cause the script to exit. However, the short circuit still affects the return value of the function, or the script itself if it's the last line of the script.

So your short circuit is causing the function to return non-zero, which then causes the script to exit.
Turning on showdead is a real trip. There's a few people who have been posting on this forum for years, often about the same pet cause in nearly every post.
In summary they took 24 songs (13 hits and 11 flops) and evaluated these against some neurological parameters from 33 volunteers, measuring average immersion, peak immersion and "Retreat" (low immersion). They then synthesised 10000 observations which were labelled either hit or flop and had a similar distribution of the three parameters as the original 24 songs.

A machine learning algorithm was trained on 5000 of these observations and tested on the other 5000 observations and the 24 songs.

It got 97% of the synthetic observations correctly labelled and 23 out of the 24 songs.

Unfortunately, it can clearly be seen that the generation of the synthetic data based on all 24 songs means overfitting to the data can easily take place (despite what the authors think their 10-fold cross validation proves)

Without proper separation of training and test data this is a garbage study and tells us virtually nothing.
