I bought a used Hololens 1 on Ebay for about what the Xreal Air costs. (Except that I can wear my glasses w/ the HR1) The Xreal Air doesn't seem to have a lot of intelligence onboard whereas the HL1 has a PC built inside. The dork factor is worse for the HL1 I think.

The HL1 has a SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) system that builds a 3-d model of the environment you use it in. You can place a 3-d object somewhere in your space, go to another room, then come back and the object is still there, look at it from all sides, etc. There are also applications that can do things like visualize airplanes in the space around an airport or let you throw darts and draw the trajectories they take.

It looks like the XRA is just a display on its own, if you have a really powerful Android phone it can run applications similar to the HL1, or you can use it as a display for a game console or computer. I think the XRA has more apps, particularly if you discount all the apps for the HL1 that are clients for some enterprise 3-d modelling software.

The HL1 would like to be usable without a controller, it recognizes the same pinch gesture that the Apple Vision does but the Apple Vision has a wide enough field of view that you can make that gesture with your hands at waist level whereas you have to hold your hands up to head level to make gestures for the HL1 and that is quickly tiring. You can get a "clicker" which fixes that.

I see the HL1 as a "minimum viable product" for AR and similar devices might have better specs on paper (HL2) but aren't really better in practice. One real weakness of all the holographic waveguide or birdbath devices is that they aren't bright enough to use outdoors in the day at all, I think the SLAM would not work with the HL1 outdoors at night either.

Of course the display capabilities of the Apple Vision are entirely different, the Apple Vision can subtract light, not just add it, and it should work outdoors. On the other hand, the software environment for applications should be basically the same for all those things and so far as I can tell all the major AR headsets (HL, XRA, AV, Magic Leap) support Unity for developing applications so I think porting applications from one to another should be possible.

Those who "think different" might get a jump on AV application development by starting with another headset instead of futzing with the AV emulator.
Pretty ironic that a smart phone OS won't ship with a standard phone dialer. I guess it's time to get rid of the standard keyboard that's holding back innovation too.
My hunch is that the wear caused by both ic and ev cars is negligible comared to trucks. Thus road use taxes, including gas, subsidize heavy trucking.
Then and Now: How 30 Years of Progress Have Changed PCs
I have always maxed out my liability insurance (what my insurance company would have to pay others in case it was my fault), and I have a spotless driving record, and it has always been $40 to $50 per month for 5k miles per year.

Comprehensive and collision, what your insurance company pays you regardless of who is at fault, is what cases insurance to be expensive in my experience.
I’ve always thought there’s so much low hanging fruit in making simple interfaces easy to make.

Yea, you generally try to avoid drilling holes or even casting threaded bosses into carbon or other composites, especially this extreme pressure rig, because it really reduces the strength versus an strong adhesive that evenly applies pressure without breaking/disrupting the composite material.

There is a concept known as Chesterton's Fence - that you shouldn't take down a fence someone else put up until you know why they put it up, or more generally if you don't understand why something was previously considered a good solution to a problem, then it's possible you don't understand the problem it was meant to solve.

> It is possible that your phone provider does not have more than 24 hours of records of which phone towers you connected to.

It is much longer than that (they have exabytes of data and DO keep it). They have retention periods in years not days. They also bake stuff right into the OS. As they usually have final say on what can and can not be installed on your phone.

Back when I worked this sort of thing they were looking into gathering that exact data and selling it. As being a cell phone is title II device they have a lot of wiggle room on doing exactly that as they are considered like an ISP. It is probably burred in that fine print you sign when you sign up.

Additionally Epic seems to already be storing these clinical notes in databases and Nuance which Microsoft owns has already technically been a 'hot mic' in these same doctors office for some time. The new offering is an AI-draft note generator.

I'm personally skeptical that model output would suddenly be under different rules than the other voice-to-text AI model output?
Someone can be a “safe” driver on paper, never get into an accident, but their actions regularly put other people in harm’s way. For example someone who’s driving well below the flow of traffic will provoke other drivers to have to pass them, but then eventually it results in someone getting into a head on collision.

Sure the passing driver is ultimately at fault, but the slow driver has blood on their hands despite no accountability. If they were driving the legal speed limit it may have prevented a serious accident and loss of life. of course, the insurance company would be none the wiser.
They spring up with little warning if you're visiting the area and are not accustomed to paying attention to the weather forecast. It also sounds like you might be from a part of the world where weather is presented by a TV personality rather than a meteorologist. In the parts of the world where severe weather happens, actual meteorologists present the weather and are less concerned about looking good on TV. While I like to make fun of forecasts as much as the next person, they are impressively accurate. Once the storm systems do start popping up, the information from the tools they have available to them today is incredible. Please, do not confuse your inexperience with storms as the norm for those that do.
Yes. The polar and equatorial diameter of the the earth differ by over 20 miles, but along a latitude line the earth is quite circular.
That’s a disingenuous hot take. There’s a lot of discussion to be had about balancing Justice and societal/personal costs but you’ve gone and skipped past all of that.
Hard disagree. Inconsistency increases the amount of time needed for any feature and increases the likelihood of bugs. There is no upside in having to understand each individual piece of functionality from the ground up, because a lot of functionality is simply repeated in slightly different ways. What you call "hurting the capacity for developers to generalise their understanding of a system" is what I would call "building the capacity for developers to generalise their understanding of a system" - consistency is what allows for generalization.

I find it interesting that Google is generating $6.70/user/month for their free search, while Kagi lowest paid tier is $5.00.

Google is generating more revenue per "free" user than Kagi lowest paid plan.

Goes to show just how much money there is in advertising.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/306570/google-annualized...
Looks like they significantly missed their goal. From Kagi's investment round invitation email:

- SAFE note round with a valuation cap of $40MM (pre-money)

- 249 investors maximum

- We are looking to raise around $2MM from our users in this way ($5MM max)

- Minimum investment amount per investor is $5,000, and maximum is $500,000.

So the $670k they now raised are only about a third of what they were aiming for.
I believe Cyclops 2 is Titan, just renamed. Cyclops 1 is a smaller steel-hulled submersible.
Like most things, it depends.

If I recite them to myself, in my home, it's fine. If I do it at a gathering at my house where we're playing D&D, fine. If I do it as a performance, in front of a crowd, or as a recording, now I'm no longer fine. Context matters in a copyright cases. Not to mention, to claim fair use, you do have to claim you violated copyright. Fair use is just an allowed violation.

As to Happy Birthday, that's actually ok for them to do now. The person/group that held the copyright to Happy Birthday was found to have not actually have held them in the first place. Happy Birthday is actually an older song called "Good Morning to All". Swap "Good Morning" with "Happy Birthday" and "children" with "dear [PERSON]" and you have the lyrics. This was not deemed a substantive change. And since the copyright on "Good Morning to All" has lapsed, Happy Birthday is in the public domain.

> OceanGate had previously taken the Titan to this depth to visit the Titanic. So, it was "proven"

This situation is an interesting statistical anomaly. Given that the Titan had a carbon fiber hull which was known to degrade more and more after each dive, the probability of failure increases after each successful dive. So you might think your chances of success are better the more times it came back safe, but the chances are actually worse.

> If you break up your monolith into modules

This is what we are doing. The server-side web monstrosity is effectively 30+ independent modules that are nested inside a common template. All of these could be worked individually without anyone stepping on each other. Anything that needs to be truly common lives in the wrapper and is rarely changed.

The only part of our business that everyone absolutely has to agree upon is the SQL schema. As long as we are talking to the data in some common language, no one will get too far off track.
So, on one hand we have that "Tech Talent Strategy", which I assume comes from the demand for more IT workers globally. On the other, we have Canadians such as yours truly who would like to upgrade from a Helpdesk position sooner rather than later. I realize that sample size=1, but why don't we properly train permanent residents instead?

(Also don't forget the IT job market which has slowed practically to a halt, as a direct opposite of that Strategy)
It's very fast. It's almost unusable on a phone. That's not necessary though - I don't think you need much fanciness to make those tables not look teeny on the phone, just a little less pixel and size hard coding I think?
Similar, but different in subtle ways when you get beyond the toy example posted here...particularly that it's always iterating a collection, vs being able to just arbitrarily loop based on arbitrary conditions..where you'd be able to easily break out of it, modify a mutable collection within it etc

But both require depending on a third party library -- hardly something on a whim if ASCII bar charts do the job?
Yeah it really shows why the GPL is necessary.

"You can see this apps, and you can develop for them. But you can't use them on your own device ..."

GPL explicitly demands that a method is provided to replace the binaries on devices that the software runs on. Which is one of the reasons the tech giants are so opposed to it. The other reason is cloud.
Or that insurance companies (in general) have no way to evaluate the risk and therefore make a business decision not to play craps with their shareholder's money (and possibly their careers).

> the only real way to get the best deal is to change providers every few years.

I had Farmers for about 5 years in a row. It started off at $440/6months and ended up at $900/6months -- on the same two cars (comprehensive on only one of them). I tried calling them up and asking why my insurance was going up when the amount they were actually covering was going down due to depreciation. They avoided my calls and lost my business.

Now I'm trying to deal with the legalities of having a child in college in another state, but no car.

True but it's very much not all pallets. EUR pallets are mostly heat treated. Some are methyl bromide fumigated but that is banned in Germany.
Have you tried Severance? Took me a bit to get around to it but probably the best sci-fi show to come out since Devs and by far the best show on Apple TV. Ted Lasso is too wholesome for me.

Apple TV has some other sci-fi with not great writing like “Hello, Tomorrow” but that are still fun for the visuals and what not.
Show HN: EdgeNode – Global Serverless Deployments
Hey HN, we're Sebastian and Mish and we are working on EdgeNode - A global serverless deployment platform.

Typically, most applications are hosted in a single location. This makes the experience worse for the users based further away due to high latency. Higher latency leads to decreased conversion rates, impairs user interactions and ultimately reduces customer satisfaction.

Amazon and Google operate their services globally to eliminate this issue and increase service reliablity. However, setting up and maintaining such an infrastructure is technically challenging and very costly.

With EdgeNode, we want to enable companies to scale globally in a cost-effective and developer-friendly way.

EdgeNode runs your existing apps (Next.js, Ruby on Rails, Laravel, Spring, Django) or Docker containers globally on the edge, no modifications required. Your application scales down to zero instances when there are no active requests, so you only pay for the resources you use.

We're committed to make global deployments as simple as possible. To achieve that, we will offer a one-click deployment process, eliminating complex configurations and minimizing the time and effort required to get your application up and running on the edge.

Please sign up for Early Access and let us know what you think!
That seems to support the point you replied to. You point to a group of people who opted out of monitoring and exhibited risky driving behavior, leaving leaving lower risk people in the monitored group

Show HN: Build a discord/Slack bot to answer questions with your docs and GPT4
It works on top of the open-source workflow engine windmill [1] that you can easily self-host on a tiny server or a large k8s cluster.

You will also need pgvector (here hosted on supabase) and of course a GPT4 api key.

It showcases an approval step so that you only provide answers you are confident giving to your users, which feels less robotic.

All the building blocks are scripts that you can reuse outside of windmill and you could build this in any other workflow engines (although less conveniently).

We use it for our own needs on discord [2] and thoughts this was a common need for any product having community support on slack or discord.

Marcel Duchamp, the Gambler
If I picture myself in this CEO's shoes (wanting to innovate in the materials/approach to DSVs), I imagine instructing my team to design a system that can perform test dives autonomously and then use that to gather data over many duty cycles. Of course, I have no idea what I am talking about, so maybe that is simply impossible or impossibly expensive. It does seem cheaper than just YOLOing it and getting yourself and four other people killed though.
Recently left a company that mostly just wanted random stuff to be glued onto an early prototype for years now. It just gets progressively more and more infuriating as it almost becomes obvious that a full rewrite would take less time than adding the stupid <thing of the week> that the management wants. Doubly so with AI acceleration for new projects.

After a while it becomes impossible to convince anyone to ditch the prototype because of all the testing hours that have been poured into it, making for a very strong sunk cost fallacy.
> But not for $670K.

As someone who has already replaced Google with Kagi, as far as I'm concerned they've already done it.

I've never paid Google for anything (apart from with my data) but I've been paying Kagi for almost a year now. The model is different. From what I've seen so far, it's better.

The amount of money you burn through is not a good indicator of whether you'll end up with a good product or viable business at the end, IMHO

No, that’s not even theoretically possible in the general case, see Rice’s theorem (at least if you stick to Turing complete programs), which states that every non-trivial (semantic) property of a program is undecidable.

Oral History of Ed Fredkin (2006) [pdf]
Yeah, unless you had permission from the authors to do so.
From my narrow viewpoint in the US mountain west I think the future will look like increase in all those green technologies you mention alongside a legacy of ICE vehicles still in use. There are numerous reasons, some more valid than others, that will stop people transitioning away from ICE. So we'll need tech to counteract that effect. A complete transition to EV is naively optimistic in my opinion.
It wasn't proven. They replaced the carbon hull of Titan after it started creaking too much from water intrusion. They had no scientific way to evaluate the number of usable dives and how safe and reliable their bonding procedure would be. Rush was just another fake it 'til you make it tech bro who flew too close to the sun with his willful ignorance.
TFA makes exactly this point. The lemma that Dafny proves is true, the reversed one is not and Dafny can provide the counterexample (the empty list).

Oversupply of trucks and SUVs. If you want a small car though you'll be out of luck.

Ford's obsession with trucks has led them to stockpile thousands of unsold F-150s in vast parking lots with the keys in the ignition. They can't stop people from driving off with them:

https://www.thedrive.com/news/million-dollar-new-ford-f-150-...

Thanks to a monopoly in freight rail and the resulting underinvestment there are 70,000 new vehicles sitting in parking lots that can't be sold. They are described as "cars" in this article

https://www.thedrive.com/news/car-dealer-inventory-is-runnin...

but I am sure most of them are trucks and S.U.V.s and if the car manufacturers have a choice between using limited resources to ship an expensive S.U.V. or an inexpensive car you know which they will pick.

> The list places JavaScript at a score of 4.45 and TypeScript worse at 21.5. For reference, C, the most energy efficient it 1.0

The point is that TypeScript is JavaScript with typing syntax added on top. There is a transpile step into JS. That's how TypeScript works. The runtimes are exactly the same. Unless we're also measuring the build step? Which seems silly.

The difference should be near zero. And it's not. They clearly do not understand exactly what they are measuring.
Which was never legal in the first place, but it was great because it liberated music and content to the masses. It was the necessary precursor to what is now Spotify and the like, instant access to billions of songs. The music industry didn't like that (Napster & co) because they wanted purchases and to get paid every time the music they owned was played.
