Ahh yes the “Great Leap Forward”, the social experiment with a death toll of nearly 50 million. What a fantastic poverty relief program. The efficiency in murdering intellectuals and burning historical artifacts would make any ISIS commander blush.
I like the part where you just ignore GP's famous example of miners colluding to void a transaction, quite successfully.
For me a mobile phone needs: phone; SMS; Web browser; maps/navigation. That’s 90% of what I do with my phone and I can live without the other 10%
For most use cases a guy like him writes a shell script, there's already some well written software.
F.e. in his case, he'd used something like Dagu.
Don't write shell scripts. If you want to do some programming, pick a proper programming language.

How would it be better if you weren't white? Is there some racism going on in social services provided?

Also, this isn't really the richest country in the world on a per-capita basis. Switzerland, for example, is a lot richer than America.
I would consider those both features, not products. And for both they gave a long lead time and an easy off-ramp.
The most likely outcome is that third party stalls will either mimic Tesla's magic dock or over-provision with two cables per stall, or (most likely) have some ratio of NACS-only, CCS1-only, and CHAdeMO stalls based on demand.

I bet if you start with yourself, you can get a decent estimate!
Judging solely by the desktop screenshot [1] it doesn't seem like a bad first pass but there are a few things that could be improved:

What jumped out first is the irregular post layout. For example the up/down arrows are farther from the image than the title, possibly to accommodate large, centered numbers. The titles can be at least three rows tall which results in posts that are quite different in height. The post images are all different heights and widths. Some users also have large circular icons that increase the height of the row while others have no icons. The other icon buttons are all slightly different sizes and appear to be from different sets. Finally, the content appears to be laid out a little haphazardly: why is the star icon next to the comments but the book icon next to the post's age? Why is the article's domain sandwiched between the community name and the age, and do we really need to show subdomains? (As an alternative, you could truncate large numbers with postfix magnitude to shrink their padding, make all images the same height/width, truncate long titles to two rows, make all icons the same optical size, and collapse the metadata to a single row such as: "From domain.org · Submitted by @name to community 11h ago · # Comments · star".)

The gray text on gray background results in poor contrast which makes it harder to read than necessary. This is especially apparent in the Posts/Comments and Subscribed/All toggles as the unselected option looks entirely disabled.

Finally, I'm not sure it works to put so many communities in one large block of wrapping rows. It may fit more content on the screen but makes for a loud block of bright green text that is attention-grabbing but hard to scan, especially since the list doesn't seem to have a visible sort order. It's also driving me crazy that the communities with icons result in inconsistent leading between rows. In that case I might start by finding out whether the page really needs to show six dozen subscriptions in the sidebar in the first place.

Which pacific islands have houses that have become inhabitable due to rising sea levels?
I think maps/navigation is a must. Without that, I’d just use a $30 feature phone
It’s a relief to see that the Marine Technology Society saw this coming 6 years ago, and did what they could to encourage OceanGate to do the right thing. There are inherent, known risks with deep sea exploration and firms need to be held to a minimum standard of safety out of a basic respect for human life. Being a scrappy startup isn’t a valid excuse for cutting corners when it comes to engineering and qualification of a pressure vessel and its essential components.

I really hope that the foresight of the MTS is recognized amongst the general public, and the DSV space doesn’t suffer a setback in perception and/or funding. At present, it does seem like the general sentiment is that this specific submersible was built to an incredibly poor standard when compared to, say, the famed Alvin or Deepsea Challenger. I hope that sentiment holds.
That is quite a story!

10-20mph won’t make much of a difference for a commute, but when you’re driving on roads with loads of RVs, it means that you’re probably doing bigger distances, and with those, 10-20 mph will absolutely make a difference.

For example, when you’re driving more than 6 hours in a day, which is not uncommon for Americans, especially ones living west of Mississippi, extra 10 mph of average speed means you’re getting to your destination 1+ hour faster, which most definitely is a significant difference.

While this is great, this only cleans up temporary files on a clean exit (well, depending on the shell), and no trap can catch SIGKILL. I much prefer cleaning up my files _before_ I use them, like:

```

touch 'temp.txt'

exec 3 < 'temp.txt'

exec 4 > 'temp.txt'

rm -f 'temp.txt'

```

Now I have file descriptors 3 and 4 available for reading and writing, respectively, and even if I pulled the plug out from my desktop the file will not be anywhere on my filesystem.
I think it's even more interesting that the required amount of energy to do that high computational work isn't that high. Evolution has been working on it for a long time, and some things are really inefficient but overall it does an OK job at making squishy machines.

Ain't we are all responsible for "duping" Purism into making that phone? Just look at the hypes after the announcement and how people loved it on paper. It's a classic example on why you should never fully trust your consumers for their suggestions.

Based on those hypes, Purism probably thought they can just create a phone for hackers first... and never realized the reality that even hackers loves consumer products. Just take a look on how many hackers owns a MacBook as their main driver despite the existence of many good Linux laptops. People are hiding some truths here, and they wanted a smart businessman to figure it out.

As one of the hypered, I'm sorry, Purism. This is the baseline that I actually wanted from a handheld device:

- Runs open source Android and Linux without bug, maybe also iOS;

- Powerful, as least 8GB of RAM and a relatively fast CPU;

- Big swappable battery, 4~6 hours continue use without a re-charge;

- But most importantly, INexpensive, at least not far more expensive than their consumer counterpart;

- Then you can start thinking about ergonomics, self-serving ability, usability and extensibility (builtin keyboard, swappable modem etc)

I should have listed all this clearly in my hype post...
> I can totally imagine a spinoff either to Oracle or IBM. Possibly Cisco as an outlier.

Higher chance of it being sold off to a rich SAAS wanting to get in like a Salesforce type.

IBM started by buying Softlayer and other clouds so yes no chance.
I used to be optimistic, but it's 2023 and the only non-ponzi use case of crypto are stablecoins. What people actually want is to easily trade and transfer US dollars.

Some tokens are pure ponzi schemes (like shib, btc) some are ownership in something that could have productive use (eth, some other smart contract platforms tokens). Yet that use isn't actually happening, so from a general pov it's all a ponzi. The most likely outcome is that nothing productive happens at all.

For an average buyer (esp. btc) mark-to-market returns are already underperforming stocks for years when looking even at previous ATH. So many people own some crypto there's no possible separate source of greater fools elsewhere - most current crypto owners will end up at a massive loss. The long-term underperformance compared to other assets will get even worse.

From the pure hype perspective, I think there's room for one last bubble. There's an army of bagholders (of every token) that will throw good money after bad when prices are sufficiently high again, giving up real wealth (again) in exchange for virtual tokens of either zero or much lower value. They still hold hope of at least going back to 0, or maybe even making money. After the next one, they won't. It will get really depressing.
Good point. I can't edit my original unfortunately.
It's wild to me that you write "As I get older, I see this sentiment as very naive." And then go on to say some breathtakingly naive things.

A lot of ocean activity is thoroughly regulated. For example: https://www.imo.org/en/About/Conventions/Pages/International...

Moreover, It's not like they're getting paid in sand dollars or doubloons from the bottom of the sea. The passengers are signing contracts and paying large fees in landlubber currencies. There's a company involved here, a legal entity. The company is based in Washington State.

If this was really not covered by any law in any country with a plausible claim on it, you can bet that people will soon be clamoring for one. Remember that air travel was once entirely unregulated. Now it's one of the most highly controlled activities. A lot of regulation like that happens in response to notable disasters; the regulations are, as they say, "written in blood."

I didn’t downvote him, but I think it’s a bit dismissive of the original point and kind of falls prey to the no true Scotsman fallacy. antonvs’ point can be summarized as essentially “even though you have firsthand experience running companies with cobbled together critical infrastructure, that’s not actually cobbled together infrastructure.”
You can stock some spare controllers. Maybe 2 brands in case on brand has a recurring issue that is affected by being in that environment.
It's a shame because Firebase is such a good product for startups. Better than Amplify on AWS.

But some of these moves have me a bit nervous having built on top of Firebase.
That's what I had in mind. (See my edit above from earlier.)

Especially since both Pinephone and Librem devs are essentially dumpster diving for their hardware. Even Dell with all its resources couldn't get fast suspend on Ubuntu working (or whatever it's called). And that was just x86_64. But even I know how to power an RPI on/off! (I can even run the systemd thingy that reports startup times for various processes, which already puts us years ahead of the competition.)

If we work smart I honestly believe we can have a Linux device with the feature set and battery life of my LG VX5200 by the year 2030.

Notice the support for "Mobile Web 2.0!" I don't believe that included SVG-- so already we're even closer to our goal!!!
It is very much a product that if it were discontinued without an exit plan and working with large customers there would have been a world of hurt, a lot of legacy customers didn’t move off until they were forced into it.

> Some of those "everyone" are people who live in countries with both currency controls

A minority of people flooding to the exits can easily remove all the liquid cash from the system and cause it to collapse. There's probably no more than around ten billion in cash at any one time supporting a nominally trillion dollar financial system. A 1% stampede for the exit can produce a crash by draining that liquidity to zero.

And when the dust settles it will all have been a transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich.
The companies I mentioned are substantially inferior in terms of engineering compared to twilio. Plus twilio is more transparent and trustworthy f.e. with porting out numbers.
Voxbone is a Russian cheaper twilio clone.
Plivo is an Indian cheaper twilio clone.
Bandwith is a disaster. You just need to get a single look at their control panel which they won't show to you unless you're a paying customer.
I found my original submission to the email list.

https://www.spinics.net/lists/dash/msg02208.html

"Signal terminations are not caught by EXIT. It only catches normal
exits. Unfortunately, the EXIT condition is not well-defined by POSIX, so it's left to interpretation."

...

POSIX is making it unspecified what happens here:

https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=621

The EXIT condition shall occur when the shell terminates normally (exits), and may occur when the shell terminates abnormally as a
result of delivery of a signal (other than SIGKILL) whose trap
action is the default.
This is what I do to get rid of books. There are a few near my home, so if I go for a walk around the neighborhood I'll bring a book to dropoff.

Show HN:Wikipedia vector search. 36M passages embeddings in just 2.54 GB
The original question asked which coastlines are burying houses underwater.

"The climate is clearly changing and it is really causing massive disruptions and costing trillions of dollars"

...to which coastlines? Los Angeles? Hawaii? Miami? Thailand? Barcelona? Marseille? Which?
Well said. There certainly has to be some oversight because there will be predators who take advantage of others. I am not even sure how to handle cryptocurrency, but I do know money runs this world and the powers that be do not want to let go of that power and nor have the inability to tax and control the flow of money. With that said, it is fairly obvious the core elements of freedom are not thought of in the same way as when I was young. For example, I never thought freedom of speech would be diminished as rapidly as it has.

Wikipedia neural search running on a laptop(2GB small model and 10GB large model).

https://speech-kws.ozonetel.com/wiki

Thanks to @CohereAI for releasing the Wikipedia embedding dataset. I saw that for 36 million passages the embedding size would be around 120 GB. So if I had to host the embeddings and enable neural search on this dataset I will have to do LLM ops and runs vectorDB clusters. This was a good dataset to test out the efficacy of the Alpes KE Sieve algorithm. We built an embedding space based on @huggingface all-mpnet-base-v2 model. We created two models, one with 540 dimension bit embedding(small) and another with 2200 dimension bit embedding(large). We were able to embed all the 36 million passages in 2GB and 10GB respectively.So you can now have local wikipedia vector search locally. Since the size is so small, we just used np.array and no vector databases. You can test it out in the link above and share your feedback.

Frankly if I am horny all the time, I need that addressed. If I'm homicidal all the time, I need that addressed. Same thing I think if a fat person is hungry all the time that should be addressed. People are generally not wandering around wanting to fuck all the time or wanting to kill all the time, and we generally consider it a disorder if they are. I think obese people are disordered in some way, either they need psychological help to navigate their relationship with food or medical intervention to handle their hunger [semaglutide affects hormones and reduces hunger, so I think something is wrong with an obese person's hormones?]. But I refuse to believe it is totally normal and healthy for fat people to just feel hungry all the time.
And I guess also carry a camera. And a music player. And a gaming device. And maybe a flashlight too. And you probably want a voice recorder. And a pedometer. And maybe a pen and paper if you need to jot a quick note. And don’t forget your datebook with your calendar. And bring a calculator. You could also pick up one of those portable DVD players from the 90’s if you want to watch a movie on the go. I happen to enjoy a couple of sky gazing apps, so I would probably also take one of those old sky charts with me.
If you can pack them closely enough, you'll end up with a portal to https://wiki.lspace.org/L-space

I drove around southern France and parts of Germany and Portugal for a month last summer and didn’t see a single accident. I was impressed.

In DFW, when a gentle rain starts the calming sound of raindrops is followed by police and fire truck sirens as everyone loses their mind and starts crashing into each other on the roads for no reason.
True. Absolute unrestrained freedom only works when evil is absent. It certainly is not absent.
Yup, and in boards at this price point and performance level (quad 1.5 GHz) or better in probably 2026.
Cool, I prefer the OpenAI-Compatible api. Although this is not very technically difficult, it is really intimate, because it make me feel free to use all ChatGPT applications.

Something that I found strange was the use of carbon fibre for the main pressure vessel.

I was under the impression that the exceptional strength carbon fibre is only in tension, and that it isn't particularly good in compression.

Why would OceanGate use carbon fibre? Other similar deep-diving submersibles used either steel or titanium, which are isotropic and have high compressive strengths.
When you get right down to it, the people who boarded this submersible on Sunday probably didn’t want to die. No matter what waiver they signed.
Speaking of bathing in benzene

When I went to Belgium I visited
the Red Star Line museum The Red Star Line was a passenger ship company that brought millions of immigrants from Europe to the US in the early 20th century. In order to depart for the US, passengers were required to scrub themswlves down with benzene and let it soak in to kill any potential lice eggs.

Also their luggage was autoclaved (yep, with hot stean) and then drenched in disinfectant.
What worked for me recently was to divide the books into several categories:

* Books I want to fully read soon.

* Books I can't see myself fully reading, which subdivides into:

* Books I want to keep as references.

* Books I can't see myself ever reading or needing to refer to.

Get rid of everything in the last category. Repeat this process once a year.
