Not the answer you're looking for? But I would say other than selling it, drop it into a dock and then use whatever controller you're happy with.
'actual stupidity'... gotta love the general disdain of the 'run of the mill business drone'... It's funny my wife is a run of the mill business drone. She thinks IT is a bunch of assholes. I would say she is probably right. Way to keep things going.
Show HN: A semantic version of Google Alerts
WhenX is a tool for creating Semantic Alerts. You can ask a question, and it will search the web and answer it. After that, it will monitor the web and alert you when the answer to your question changes.
I’ve bought it, even if i have them on Epic Store… and I don’t even have a steamdeck yet.
Twitter said only verified users will be able to access TweetDeck after 30 days
None at all is still better. When you allow some, you’ll have people gaming the rules and finding loopholes. A clear ban is easier to enforce.

As for making the city ugly, I grew up there and I’m the first to say it’s an acquired taste. You get used to the grit, to the harshness and the layers of architectural history. Visiting the city centre is always some sort of a discovery.
Mastodon has short-lived slowdowns on the biggest servers when it’s going through explosive growth, and somehow people spin this into general scalability issues. It’s not a problem in reality.

Twitter went down completely all the time in the early days.
Presumably in a few years all billboards will be virtual, painted over top of reality by AR?

And San Paulo will be bedecked again, at least as experienced by normal people with whatever comes after mobile phones.

As will Rome and your local park?
If corporations are allowed to own AI there's a strong argument that it shouldn't be treated anything like a human.

Humans aren't property so of course they should be regulated differently from AI.
WinterFest 2022 – The Festival of Artisanal Software
Ah, self-compiled kernels at least once a week. Those were the days... which i would not want to return to.
Yeah, I mean life expectancy has made great strides in the past 100 odd years worldwide; what we see is a higher occurrence on things like cancer and heart disease or other diseases that become more and more likely with age. There's the pressure on the health care / social systems as well, which is partially compensated now by having people work longer - either by raising the retirement age, or having no state pension so that the elderly are forced to keep working for longer.

But your point also stands, treatments like this, IF they become commonplace, may have far-reaching effects that we can't oversee yet.
I'm not arguing for or against that - I'm just stating a fact (there's a lot of pichação in São Paulo) and an opinion (I find it extremely ugly, even if I do like grafitti, including the more artistic and colorful tags)
I mean its the basis for the entire article this post is about.

Most people don't buy a car on impulse. They do a bit of research, try things out and select the one they think is best. It takes a while. moreover its normally the second biggest purchase they make in their life.

Once you order the car, to have it cancelled, or offered a car that is materially harder to use (with a discount! but the car is worth significantly less, so its not actually a discount) I would be pissed off. Yes, you can choose another car, but that wasn't the one they wanted.

To then have a branded litter picker added to "sweeten" the deal, is frankly insulting.
None is not necessarily or inherently better because advertising generates revenue. You would need to weigh the revenue vs. the nebulous value of "no advertising". Given that there exists stores in Sao Paulo, you still see "advertisements", just not on billboards.

You speak of the grit - said grit could be improved with government efforts funded by... advertisements in part.

I suppose this lack of nuanced thinking is why the war on drugs is still a thing. There are many bad things that you can try to unliterally ban. There are tradeoffs.
Huh? Meta tried to argue that it was legally obligated to serve ads to its users and this allows them to move any consent requirement for tracking and online advertisement into terms and conditions ... Whoah.

The highly paid for legal contortionists who made the argument probably knew it was doomed from the start. They are just paid to delay inevitable by dragging it trough all courts.
I wonder if this would be true in all cultures though? Australian Aboriginals lives incredibly healthy lifestyles and had access to an abundance of incredible foods.

I don't know if they'd live as long as people today but I'd be surprised if many didn't at least go till at least 70+?
Would be cool if these spaces (or some of them) were given to local artists to use.
When I got my AWS certification it didn't promise any applicability to Azure or GCP. But I brought skills, and took knowledge away, that would apply. Some of this is just on the practitioner.
Really wish the engineers behind that design did us a solid and at least left the shortcut keys (left/right/j/l) in. Dropping those too is criminal.
I've been in São Paulo for a week, and the city feels depressing. The architecture is horrible, boring, and not well-maintained, especially when compared to the architecture of old European cities where at least the buildings are aesthetically pleasing. The excessive advertising only worsens the situation. I've also visited Berlin, and unfortunately, it too felt quite dull.
It's not a code search tool. This discussion is not about Cody but the Sourcegraph search.
Sometimes reading is hard, thanks.
I also love that feature for the exact same reason!

Somewhat disappointed with Outer Wilds though ;)
The Right It: https://www.albertosavoia.com/therightit.html
Perhaps its revealing of the true nature of way cities really are - huge concrete, brick and mortar landscapes. Maybe the revulsion is a natural reaction and humans are inclined towards a more earthly aesthetic which advertising simulates through color
Isn't this concept lifted directly from Ned Beauman's Venomous Lumpsucker? I'm hearing bells. Church bells. :)
Honestly, if Valve gives their Steam Machines concept another go with their much improved compatibility and operating system, I think they may have an actual chance. They'll need to come up with a replacement for their terrible Steam controller that tried and failed to be a mouse, but if they just stick the two sides of the Deck together I think they're already almost there.

They'd also need to keep costs down like they do with the Deck and that's going to be a real challenge, but if they can get a controller + desktop out for about the price of the Deck but without the handheld performance restrictions, I think they can gain popularity.
PSA - If you think you're never going to die, you're wrong and you are in emotional denial and talk it over with a therapist or something.

The human body is a machine with so many failure modes that we don't even remotely understand all the ways you can die. The idea that we'll find 1 magical variable (telomere length or some protein) that can be fixed and ALL the changes of aging (from growth, sexual development, menopause, brain shrinkage, skin wrinkles, bone density loss) will go back to exactly perfect AND any other ways you can die will all be prevented (car accident, cancer, diabetes, etc) is just about zero.

For example the human brain in constantly losing brain cells (which don't grow back obviously). Many body cells don't regrow at all[1]. I'm sure there are many other mechanisms in the human that never evolved to the point of >100 year reliability.

Disclaimer: I ordered both a Steam Deck and an ROG Ally at the same time, and ended up returning the Ally, mostly because of the reports of the SD card reader frying up cards. If in 2 months it turns out it was all a software issue, I might rethink my option.

That being said, I think the Ally has great potential and some of the problems listed can be solved/mitigated;

> - Windows as the key interface

You can boot straight into Steam Big Picture. It will show you the desktop for a second, for now, but surely there will be solutions to make it boot almost instantaneously. And then Windows remains as your Desktop Mode.

> - very poor battery life (even worse than the Deck!)

There's a tool called Handheld Companion (FOSS) that tries to do a lot of what the right hand side menu in SteamOS does, FPS limits, power control, etc.
It has a feature called AutoTDP which basically modulates power to target a certain FPS average, and it works surprisingly well, shaving off enough power to make the SD and the Ally battery comparable in situations over 9W. Below 9W I agree, the ROG Ally chip just eats more power for sometimes lower performance.
It even emulates a DualShock 4 controller so you can stream PS4/PS5 games to it via Sony's app. (that also enables gyro in Steam games, which Asus didn't care much to add, even though the hardware is there)

> - no trackpads so this limits what you can ever play with it to games made for gamepads

Nothing that can be done about that, except maybe yet another Handheld Companion tweak which adds virtual gamepads on the edges of the touchscreen. Very customizable, not perfect, hard to reach with smaller hands, but hey, it's an option.

> - none of the SteamOS goodness
See Handheld Companion above

PS: how do I add quotes in here?
I don't think that the internet is currently dead ("dead" = "bot activity mistaken for human activity greatly surpassing genuinely human activity"), but that this is a real future concern.

One thing to take into account is that current bots suck major balls. Specially when it comes to utterance purpose, and for longer utterances; they fail the Turing test really hard, provided that the one asking "is this a bot or a human?" is able to interpret utterances based on nearby utterances and non-textual information around it. In other words if the internet was dead already we would've noticed it.

And someone might argue "ackshyually, there are more advanced bots that model language on pragmatic levels, you just don't know about them because it's all hidden!". Well, then you get a conspiracy "theory" with its typical appeal to ignorance, not something worth thinking about.
I see, appreciate the breakdown. I could see this being popular with upcoming CS2 and similar games. The price tag seems a bit steep though. But I guess they need to make money on the hardware.
Putting aside the fact that what we call AI today is not learning in the same way as humans. They operate on a VASTLY different scale compared to humans. On a good week I can read a book. A single book. A massively parallelised data centre can do that billions or trillions of times faster. Scale of effect (lacking a better phrase) must be considered.
I’ll add an odd tertiary problem HN folks might find interesting.

It is becoming increasingly common for “undergraduate research opportunities” to in fact just be a job annotating data. Researchers need some custom annotated dataset. Undergraduates want “research experience”. So researchers offer an opportunity to undergrads who think they will be doing meaningful research but instead are just mechanical turkers. No pay, perhaps a promise of research credit later…

It’s disingenuous to students but also disingenuous to companies looking for some meaningful research experience on resumes that list it.
This article is way overthinking things. From a societal point of view, as evidenced by ads, movies, etc., there probably are overtones of dominance and submission in sexual relationships. But from my personal point of view, sex is a pleasurable, fun, and emotionally satisfying thing to do with an equal and willing partner (or by myself). I pity those who can't get past their sociological theorizing enough just to have a good time.
> Screen is kinda small for newer, high res games but still enjoyable.

Agree. When rewriting an older game for Steam I ended up in-biggening the artwork a touch to look good on the Steam Deck. Of course the game now looks positively Duplo on a normal PC monitor now.
I'm half way through a year of not drinking alcohol. I cannot tell you what it had done for my memory.

I think I'll drink beer again someday but the increased memory has really made me question whether I actually will if presented with it.

Not sure if you drink or not but if you do, I'd recommend trying it. For me it was an unexpected benefit.
I used to (20+ years ago, now) buy a few rolls of dollar coins a week from my bank. Amusingly, they added them to their currency order just for me - the bank manager informally made me promise I'd keep asking for them - that's how low the demand was. I enjoyed them for parking, and vending machines, and buying coffee. Even at the time, however, I thought they'd made a mistake by not making them $2 coins, instead.
> rarely going to be on

Why rarely? Where I am it's pretty dark every night.

> But if you have issues with the ecological impact of the manufacture of LED bulbs, you can't use anything involving plastic or silicon, including computers.

Bring it up when we make computers of comparable capabilities from glass and tungsten I guess?

> cherry picking to single out LEDs

So sorry for sneakily cherry-picking LEDs (of all things!) in a thread about alternatives to LEDs under a link to the article that talks about LEDs and their downsides. Let's discuss plastic bottles and other environmental hazards instead.
Dumb phones are just as good as smart phones for emergencies.
How to know whether 'Consciousness' is just an output of ever-changing physical element too - in this case flow of energy in neurons.

These flow of energy changes the states of neurons and sum total of that is perception of the 'world' which we think is the consciousness.

Corollary - Due to the quantity and 'quality' of each neuron in each individual, the perception of the world or the reality would also vary for each individual.
What difference does that make? The question is whether the work that is produced is derivative or not surely.
Not neccesarily, you can calculate them on the fly.
Seems like contrived logic made by a kid who really wants something. Adults can drive, drink, etc.
My college student still won't take a cell phone. His uni gave him an iPad but he leaves it home most of the time. It can happen. And since he doesn't have a cellphone, I don't pick mine up so much when we're hanging out together. Win-win.
In Linux, you can do a dstaddr/dstport based redirect in the iptables FORWARD chain to your own http server and serve the ACME challenge/response things from there. This is basically a transparent proxy setup.
In the US, the state of Maine does not allow billboards. It's a thing I didn't notice until living elsewhere, and it's really nice.
If I were reviewing resumes and saw someone list themselves as a "cloud engineer", I would make very sure their skills listed the cloud provider used where I was hiring. That title would make me assume they were a specialist in a cloud until I saw otherwise.
Immortal is not eternal
I mean sure, but only if all other health problems are also solved, not to mention society which is already struggling under the pressure of an aging population - causing retirement ages to increase, employment under elderly increasing, and health care systems like the NHS or the US system to crumble to the point of people dying while waiting to be seen by a GP or being referred to A&E to sit and wait for hours waiting for underpaid and overworked staff for something a GP should be looking at.
History of these institutions makes it clear, spin is not required to land the point.
Vermont too!
I've built a product and have been building it slowly for over 3 years now and have got 3 paying users with $100 MRR. It's a boring product, already validated but a big market but also big competition.

I'm still figuring out how to market it and attract more users to it.

Though this doesn't discourage me from continuing to improve and build the product.
Does this make a difference? If I were to build a gaming PC based on Linux and Proton, would I need an Arch based distro to get that ~80% coverage?
compile time may help for some stuff but if you’re passing pointers to a function, you don’t know what will happen there. You might get a use after free or a double free.

Like with all languages, if you’re leaving default safety up to programmer convention, the programmer will let you down eventually. Rust, swift and any language where raw pointers are the exception not the rule (any GC, ref counted or borrowing language really), they all switch the defaults around so that you’re not dealing with memory management yourself unless you absolutely want to.

> This question is fascinating to me! What form of work requires using a smart phone?

A common one I've seen around is food delivery workers.

Another common one, at least around here, is taxis (we used to call them "radio-taxi" since you called a taxi by dialing to a central and talking with a dispatcher, who talked to the drivers through radio; it's been a while since the bulky radios with long external whip antennas have been replaced with a smartphone app).

Another one I've occasionally seen is power company repair workers, who seemed to use their smartphones both to communicate with their central and to fill service order forms. The same for communication network repair workers (though now I'm thinking, how do the cell phone network repair workers do it? I'm guessing they must have a traditional handheld radio as a fallback).
Wait what, that's a thing on web now? I thought simd was only on native, not wasm
The difference between an AI which helps speed up medicine development by simulating drug safety, and one which finds tens of thousands of deadly neurotoxins, is a single "min" -> "max" or equivalent.

(And that was something that happened about a year ago already).
I have played Stellaris and Oxygen Not Included and they work surprisingly well.

As noted elsethread, lot of pause-action-unpause though.
If the z-index worked as in CSS it wouldn't actually help with that. It would have to work relative to the root SVG instead of relative to the current stacking context.

Yep I have a small shell script that caches a repo with only the last commit files and runs ripgrep on it. I'll give a go at live grep that's discusses above, that look exciting.
Even if it is was available in Norway, it'd probably be cheaper to order it from abroad anyway. I was baffled by how expensive "niche" gadgets are here. For example the Kinesis advantage 360 is 8k NOK[0] compared to $479 in the US, so it was actually less expensive to order from there and pay the customs than to get in locally. This was last December, before the NOK value fell off a cliff.

Meanwhile, I find NYS's inundation of billboards downright depressing. It's just ugly, even in places that ought to be beautiful upstate. When I cross the border into Vermont, which bans ads on roads except for simple business signage, the difference is tangible.
Only use mine with Firefox.
Surely the lack of SteamOS could be compensated by launching Steam in big picture mode? Or even installing HoloISO if they support the device?
> Microsoft has been skimming processing power for year through spying and it's just that simple.

I would rather argue that Microsoft has been skimming processing power by unnecessary virus scanning all over, by not caring early enough in proper security. Bolting it on later required virus scanning, slowing it down by magnitudes.

Also their ineffective filesystem ACL costs them 10 times.
No idea why you're downvoted. The idea that the human body has the formula for immortality 99% right and it just "forgot" to make enough of protein X which has no downsides seems hopelessly naive to me.

Just look at existing health interventions, like HGH, and see all the side-effects and risks associated with it.
i dare say that _no_ fantasy novels are original at this point ;).

I love seeing mastodon links on the front of hackernews.
Except you are not in your home. You are in an app, a commercial property. Imagine trying to say that grocery stores are not allowed to have security cameras, or track what isles are most busy, or count the the number of each item sold.

All these things are under attack. I agree that cross-site tracking for ad purposes is bad, but this obsession with privacy goes too far. If you run around outside naked sorry you don't get to demand no one look. There are private spaces and non-private spaces, and I don't believe in eliminating non-private spaces.

edit: and to clarify, an app on your home computer controlling your lights or appliances, that should be a private space with opt-in usage tracking for UX improvement, a server on the internet that you are interacting with, that is not a private space. While you shouldn't be allowed to track across servers, yes I believe the server owner should has every right to anonymously track the views and areas of the website that people spend time on, and certainly they have every right to track purchases and do analytics on them.
I've been using two 27" 4k 144hz monitors for over a year on my personal machine. I'm doubtful if my work setup would be able to drive them to full capability.
HuggingFace is exactly that. Apart from models, you can find quite a lot of fine-tuning datasets for transformer models.
