I want to setup my configs using Nix and Home Manager but I just find it so confusing and not very user friendly. Every guide I’ve seen is either a really basic case of setting up a single package and config or an extremely complicated setup using Flakes that I can’t wrap my head around.

This guide I feel like falls more into the former, it gives you a really basic example but isn’t enough to go off for me.
> when bad luck gets hold of you

> Children's cancer wards exist.

They definitely do, and this is pure bad-luck. But go to a hospital today and take a look at the patient census: a great percentage of them have completely preventable diseases with the knowledge we have today. They (born in the 40's) didn't stand a chance as they lived through the rise of fast food and got hooked on cigarettes while it was believed to be safe. But it doesn't have to be the same for kids today.
e2e, without root, leaves me completely exposed to key escrows or just straight up key exfiltration. It feels like a paper victory.
I always just thought of it as, the uppermost bit is that power of two but negative. So for four bits from right to left, if they're set to one you add 1, 2, 4... -8.
Please tell me how I can run my own version of Android on my Samsung phone that doesn't phone home to Google or Samsung, while still being able to run my banking apps.
China too has an abysmal food self-sufficiency ratio, and it has been trending worse. Between 2000 and 2020, their food SSR dropped from 93% to 65%. This is a damning indictment of their government and economic system.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about with payola schemes.

This is a comment on an article about how an international company violated EU law. The US government (the only organization bound by constitutional law) was never involved in any way.
Haha.

Just for the record, I am not part of the dog owners group :)
I don't think it's nice to let a dog roam in the park, kids get scared, and things can go wrong.
I mean, this is “no vehicles in the park” territory. One person’s harassment is another’s telling the truth and calling things by their names, and while people will happily call moderator decisions obviously idiotic, they will vehemently disagree which decisions are the idiotic ones. Bullies are excellent at playing those strings. This stuff divides communities.
I might jump ship for Sony except for the fact I've never been able to use a Playstation controller without my thumbs knocking together and I find the sensation unendurably irritating.

The picture shows it is registered as D-M... which is german ultra-light (600 kg max). They are required to have one, unless it can auto-rotate. Maybe there's additional exceptions. And the production model might not be ultra-light.
Humanitarian concerns is the reason for poor relations with the U.S? I find it hard to believe that people actually believe this, there is such a thing as history and the following is a very common pattern: new government decides that deals with U.S companies is unfair and wants to change things, then a coup is attempted if successful the new government bows to work closely with its allies. If it fails then suddenly all the newspapers/news networks decide to tell us about the suffering of these people under the brutal dictatorship. Then sanctions from everyone, then the people really start to suffer and it ends with a new coup and new bows to allies.

This has happened sooo many times already using the same played out playbook. I just assume every single coup now is the same. Why do you think Turkey suddenly switched sides after a failed coup?.

We know its happening, we benefit from it happening. Who knows maybe it is better this way for everyone in the long run. You can't split the world into good and bad and always try to align yourself with the good because it can only be done if you are willing to fool yourself.
> obviously police and ambulances (and fire trucks) doing their jobs don't have to follow the sign.

Nope, not for me :-) But funny part is that it's so obvious for me, I'm surprised anyone else thinks otherwise.
Yeah the rubric is called the Bill of Rights.
There are cordless trimmers and leaf blowers. The run time isn’t great but they can use the same battery. Expensive to buy lots of batteries for whole day, and hard to charge on the truck. But I’m sure they will figure out some solution like quiet generator on truck, or multicharger to extension cord from house.
The problem is that you have a few options:

1. send in plain text with http basic auth. Over https this isn't a problem, but https was expensive). This is sent on every request.
2. Use digest. This is also sent on every request, and also requires actual processing, at which point you might as well go for 4 so it looks nice.
3. Use certificates. Nobody does this on the pubic web. The only website I've ever used certificates was whatever certificate site predated let's encrypt, can't remember the name at the moment, and as someone who doesn't use client certificates it was a huge pain (blame that on the browsers though)
4. Use a form on the website with a session token, and you get control over the UI including error messages and styling. Much more user-friendly. You can trivially prevent the user from (easily) sending requests with pain text passwords by only showing sensitive pages like login over https. The user can't bookmark or share a URL with a password embedded in it. You can request more information than just username and password (Bank: do you want to see your checking account or savings account? Forum: go back to previous page or to homepage? SSO-ish (DayForce): what's the name of the org you're signing into?)
> Because acquisitions make markets less competitive, not more.

This is just simply not true as a blanket rule.

Also, I don't understand what you're saying. Activision is not in the console market, only Microsoft is. Buying Activision makes the console market more competitive because it makes Microsoft's console more compelling in that market, a market where they are floundering.

You could also look at the game market, which as you say has a zillion US companies making games, and Activision under Microsoft would have to continue to compete in that market.

How does this reduce competition, and in what market?
Web browsers (and the whole touch input stack really) are already fully aware of touch precision and do very clever things to infer what you're actually trying to touch. In my experience it's already surprisingly accurate, too.

Saying that making things bigger isn't a solution is nonsense. Shifting blames to browser makers is even less of a solution.

Making HN 200% bigger if it detect a small screen would fix most issues and it's 3 lines of CSS. But sure, let's wait until that magical browser you describe arrives to fix everything instead. Any day now.
Well, I had similar thoughts. I am reading the comments about laws and rules here and I am thinking: You people have never been in Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan.
You could call it something like the hostility spiral or value extraction spiral, but those terms don't really capture the experience of being a user on these platforms. Save them for polite company, I guess.
I've spent some time conversing (it said 1B params, is that true? It wouldn't say when asked directly..). I asked one question in Polish to check if it knows other languages, then it asked me to log in and after using apple to log in "Sorry, you have been blocked". Question was literally if it knows other languages.

Output length seems very limiting. Optimizing for positive emotions hurts truth and unfortunately knowledge seems pretty limited. It's got some wit though.
Just think, we might be able to talk about organ-leggers outside of the context of a Larry Niven novel.

To summarize,

the author took what George Hotz said (8x200b models) and put it together in an article that talks absolute nonsense for the entirety of its 1,207 words.
It's a petition. It's primary function is to serve as a list of names. Your concern is that it might later be used for retaliation, which has always been true throughout the history of man.

The solution is to ensure that the government cannot retaliate against it's own citizens with impunity.

Its great for writing code-agnostic specifications for software. And is often easier to read than actual code.

Languages like TLA+ can be considered as a form of pseudocode as they cannot be compiled down to code.

Yet TLA+ is used very much in the real world for describing complex algorithms.
Yes, and I want all those container ships out of the ocean too because they are ruining beach bathing. /s
Shortages happened before that too and even now
Sony built its library of exclusives. Microsoft is trying to just gobble up the biggest studios not already owned by a console manufactuerer. That's blatantly anti-competitive.
You can implement such a system-wide undo with filesystem snapshots using LVM2 or btrfs (or with backup/restore).

However, you also need to properly isolate software in containers or VMs since of course doing a system-wide undo on a system that is running a server will also revert the server state, which is usually disastrous.
Both PlayStation and Xbox have some really hard hitting exclusives comparable to the Elder Scrolls series, but my intention was not to start a pissing contest of who has the most or the best.
I don't see why not. It's a big userbase, and again, the consequences aren't nearly as great as those for real-life double and triple agents.
He said "Introduced in 2017, and still totally unusable in the wild." I understand his frustrations with his own hardware, but he's using lower end consumer hardware. We could quibble about what it means to be "in the wild," but I operate in a compute heavy space where companies buy good hardware, and they all make effective use of AVX512 instruction.
In other news, the blog of the RSS Advisory Board, inactive since 2014, started getting updates again :) It was a pleasant surprise seeing new articles from them pop up in my feed reader again after such a long time.
It's definitely impressive for having very coherent responses without major verbal tics. However, while I agree with your assessment of apparently lack of technical knowledge, but I think it's mainly because the answers are so short.

It has nice responses to:

> what's a good LED driver if I want to power one hundred LEDs which are 1.5A, 3.25V each? input voltage can be anything from 24VDC to 48VDC. List specific model numbers. Ideally something with boost conversion.

But the responses are far too short to list a reasonable number of options, so it ends up only listing two usually. Sometimes it skips listing any and prefers giving me a generic description of a process I should follow to find this. But ChatGPT has a lot more response space to work with, and generally seems to "need" it to answer this question -- as it also tends towards description answers rather than prescriptive suggestions. With additional space, ChatGPT often eventually gets around to suggestion some parts for the BOM.
Non-normalized vectors are for when some vectors should match less often in general, encoded by length. In particular, vectors that shouldn’t match anything can be encoded as a zero vector. For example, the last layer of a classification convnet is just dot product similarity, and is usually not normalized
While I agree, I marked the emergency vehicles as being in violation of the rule. My interpretation being that such a rule would not be enforced even though it was technically violated.
You haven't given the number of how much CO2 people use to live, only what the sustainable number is, so there isn't enough information to make any conclusion.
Prigozhin was threatened with a tactical nuke, decided it wasn't worth it.

That’s not what Amnesty International’s report said: https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2018/04/spain-cruel-a...

Your claim is fundamentally impossible. Regardless of what kind of system is used to subsidize care, there’s still a problem of allocating limited resources. It’s always a tradeoff between prices (or levels of subsidization), eligibility requirements and, at the margins, waiting times.

The desire for health care is virtually limitless. Spain could literally spend its entire GDP on medical care and not meet everyone’s needs.
Yep, that's why I asked. Most of the developed and developing world can afford them. And i think 29 eur is actually quite pricy, if you want cheaper stuff you can probably go down to like... 4 euro?
The breakthrough is the warming method which allows heating rates high enough to avoid crystal formation before melting, even in large organs.

To achieve this, the great idea was to fill the blood in the organ with iron nano-particles, before freezing.

The organ can then be warmed whenever desired like in an iron pot on an induction kitchen stove, with a variable electromagnetic field, which penetrates the organ and generates the heat uniformly, in the iron particles that are distributed in the entire volume.

After warming, the blood with iron can be pumped out and replaced with normal blood.
I read this here and there and don't doubt it, but then again I've never seen/met anyone IRL (outside of C-level) making this much money as an employee.

Are they just extremely rare cases or am I just not aware of the valley and their customs?
Neat! I’m definitely looking for something like this. My use case is running semi-trusted dev tools that come packaged. I need to run them, but I don’t want to trust them, but it’s too much of a faff to actually check, or run them in isolation (think dotnet tooling).

What I would love to see is a blocking IO on reads and writes, and network requests. Would let me see if some script is attempting to exfiltrate my home dir/ssh/gpg keys.

Not looking to fully secure, just for some more intuition about commands/scripts and their dependencies
China's own reliance on food imports has soared because China is poorly run and lead. Continued destruction of their own arable land due to criminal mismanagement mean there is no end in sight to this trend; international trade is China's lifeline.

That's the problem ... So much time to a pleasing but inefficient payoff
It's hard to make a direct comparison because they're trying to do different things. God of War and Spider-Man were released on PC 4 years after their console versions.

As someone who's looking forward to both new Elder Scrolls and Spider-Man 2, I've only considered buying a console for the second: I'll just update my PC for the first.
I could, but I don't want ugly code.
Does a human form a single consciousness? I’m not so sure it does what with being able to hold conflicting ideas simultaneously.
If you look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index you can also notice how post-soviet countries that keep close ties with russia also still rank high on that. I wonder how much of that is from same kind of people keeping power, or russian influence.
Here’s a bit of my comment from the MyNOR / FORTH thread the other day [0] about the Jupiter Ace manual.

My mother signs out of her email every time she closes it, and does the same for other websites as well. She's the only one who uses her computer, and it has a password on it (mostly because Windows won't do file sharing without one). She still refuses to stay signed in.

Not everyone wants to stay logged in, and not everyone uses a single browser; I occasionally use the wrong browser profile for something because I cbf loading up the correct one; in these cases I usually load the website in a private browsing tab to avoid container/addon settings interfering. When I can't log in easily, I get quite annoyed.
I find this entire thing interesting. If you look at percents then sure, the PS5 is "winning" by a large margin, but from a units sold prospectrive if the PS5 is really selling 2:1 the Series X/S than we can estimate that the PS5 is around 38 Million and the Xbox is at 19 Million. From the best I can find that is still better than the Xbox 360 was by this time (someone please correct me if I am wrong in this case, finding concrete numbers for this is difficult). That number is nowhere near a failure.

That being said, its also obvious that Microsoft is playing at a different game and that it is largely fanboys and news sites keeping the "console wars" alive. (And I guess this case now but that's something else entirely) Every game that Microsoft publishes is day one also on Windows and on Game Pass. The box that is an xbox is just another avenue to playing games from Microsoft, but not the only way they care about.

I have an Xbox because it is my preferred console to play on (Xbox Live, the UI, Controller, etc) if I am playing on a console instead of a PC. I have a PS5 but that is only for exclusives.

Personally I am hoping this deal goes through because I want Xbox to be taken more seriously. Not because I want Microsoft to control these specific games or I want xbox to "Win".

But because I am particularity worried about a cocky Sony. We saw it before with the PS3 erra and we are starting to see it again with the PS5. They are making certain decisions that are not gamer friendly (cross play, paying for third party exclusives, and paying for exclusive content being some key examples). My concern is that unlike the PS3 erra where they stumbled hard, gamers are not pushing back against it this time and Sony is just continuing what they have been doing. For me personally an unchecked Sony/Playstation power in gaming is worse than this deal going through. They are both harmful for gaming, but I don't see a choice outside of it.
As an aside:

10 players in the field of game consoles? I honestly believe that having 10 competing console platforms would make console gaming worse, just like everyone and their dog starting a streaming platform is much less convenient and much more expensive than just watching everything on Netflix was a few years ago.
Thanks for the local perspective. Would you say https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-64216269 is an accurate summary of the problem faced in France?

No matter how bureaucrats or corporate/administrative bean counters want to massage the numbers, there’s clearly a patient to caregiver ratio ceiling.

Our own structures in management understand and demand this, yet these “leaders” revert to factory approaches for anyone outside of their hierarchy.

Collosally stupid.
that's not how nominal types work: the properties looped over will be only the one of Parent
Price controls only necessitate limiting what consumers are charged, not what producers earn - the government budgets for it and makes up the difference. Besides the most prominent examples of price controls in the US and Europe are almost always in response to shortages: Food Administration, Fuel Administration, Office of Price Administration, oil crisis, etc.
I don't know about homelessness (which is a much more difficult issue which can't be solved by just throwing money at it), but most developed countries built high speed rail lines and/or urban light rail transit systems for much less than 10,000,000,000$.
All due to their own choices in food! ~15 years ago I'd excuse them but in 2020 the data for diabetes is pretty much clear.

While many people are fighting for carbs vs fats the simplest solution is to just eat whole foods and don't overdo carbs and you'll be fine-ish.

Though there are studies showing that high saturated fat intake could make the body less sensitive to insuline.

But do note that many high carb marathon runners get diabetes or are in prediabetes mode because of the insanely high amounts of sugar that they consume, so don't mistake what I said for "fat causes diabetes".
(Look up Timothy Noakes).
I use Yunohost, its a great tool for deployment on a small VPS instance.

Some of the apps though require a bit more RAM/CPU but if you stick with email, git and Ghost Blog CMS, then its a great tool to minimise sysadmin overhead.
People using a real language like Rust write a 10-100X performant new tool like `rg/fd` that replaces an existing tool like `grep/find`.

People using TypeScript write blog on why Typescript can't even type `Object.Keys`. Someone who only spents time in C++, Go, Java, or Rust would be surprised at this.

Types in TypeScript are like Cheese in Cheeseburger, there is a slice of it but the meat is entirely made up of something else.
Last time I ate in SF, I walked past a guy smoking crack on the sidewalk. But, yeah... big house with a big yard is nice.
There are a handful of unicorns / decacorns that went poof and the BS equity turned out to indeed be BS. That’s why they have to do $300k base salary, because that’s low end of total comp at competing mega caps, without it they couldn’t sign anybody from there.

OpenAI will probably end up like UberATG where Microsoft bails out a handful of $10m-plus equity packages, some engineers transfer into MS and get partial recognition, and a bunch of engineers get laid off or sent to a competitor for basically zero. Good chance of this happening when sama has to scale up aggressively and flops.
Microsoft has been keeping the Windows platform away from the gaming market in favor of Xbox, I'd imagine to avoid competing with themselves. Xbox has to have been getting subsidies from somewhere to run Game Pass. Despite all this help, they do seem to be stuck third place. Excluding Nintendo as a competitor seems wrong, it's not just about current-gen.

I don't play Activision/Blizzard games or use Xbox so I'm not really invested, but I tend to oppose market consolidation and monoculture whenever possible. That said, lately game releases have been pretty lackluster with some major flops and lots of remakes coming out. If the underdog thinks they can turn the tide by acquiring a major studio, I don't particularly want the government in the way either.
As it turns out, moderation and funding is hard.
Open AI does not make profits though

Although with Sam at the helm, my guess is it will probably be worth more than $600K a year.

or not . I would rather work for facebook with profit participation. zuck seems to know how to make a profit.
These kinds of questions are such bullshit too just getting promises from these people are meaningless. Ticketmaster "promised" that buying LiveNation wouldn't lead to more price gouging, venues extorting artists, etc and all that happened nearly instantly because they were able to consolidate the market further and vertically integrate more.
