I could definitely see this, I also wonder if this is why many breweries are scrambling to make non-alcoholic beers. The non-alcoholic beers have become so good IMO, I usually find myself reaching for one of those on a hot day rather than the real deal.

Grammarly compared to nuclear reactor parts. Now that's some gold medal mental gymnastics
"2GHz quad-core RISC-V 64GCV Xuantie C910 central processing unit (CPU)"

The datasheet doesn't mention Vector (V) extension support. Is this an error on the Beagleboard page?
You're probably right. Look at figure 3 in the paper. The effect is for region upstream of FOXP4. The reported Prometheus snp ( rs1983891 ) is not in this region, it is in an intron in FOXP4.
Overall nice looking board.

I used to scoff at PowerVR GPUs as being unsupportable & worthless, but progress has been quite good lately. Only 3 SoC supported & not this but porting should go relatively smoothly now.

Price feels high.

Elephant in the room: what the heck is that USB micro 3.0 connector doing there? Yikes! What an ugly relic. And that's the only USB on the board.
You’re conflating texture compression like ATSC with generic resource compression.

Well, there's no "hentai" because you can't be a hentai or take part in the hentai lifestyle.

Regardless, it makes sense that platforms promising openness would attract groups that aren't in the mainstream.
This would disproportionally hit the poor. And the rich would be laughing even harder because their tax rate would effectively drop to zero.
Screws and Software
This is pure speculation, but I imagine there are plenty of people that could write a passable show, and would even do it for free if given the opportunity. Same with other art. What leverage do these writers actually have?
Both. We need both. Robins should be punished and the system should be fixed. Obviously. It's absolutely wild that we had to arrive here instead of starting here.

Personal responsibility is a good principle to live by but a dogshit principle for system design. It's a transparent but common ploy by the corrupt: "let's not fix the system and instead toss a few scapegoats to the plebs while we continue to rob them blind."
That style of comment does bother me though. It implies some kind of authority or consensus. "It is important to note" should just be read as "I (and people as enlightened/ informed as myself) think".

Just tell me your opinion, and I'll evaluate it based on it's content. You telling me that it's Important only puts me on alert for some kind of bias.

EDIT: to clarify, if I'm doing my job correctly as a critical reader, I can't trust a commenter to be speaking for anyone but themselves. Phrasing like "it's important to note" serves to divert from that, because it implies that it's not the commenter's opinion, they're just spreading the gospel.

Their assertion may be correct, but I'm doing it wrong if I take their word on it just because "it's important to note." Which is why I would prefer they leave it out, because I still need to do the work whether they tell me to or not, and telling me not to makes me suspicious.

> in a war of attrition, executives are much better positioned to weather the drought than writers

Not necessarily. If the writers had pulled this in 2021, they'd have won. Everyone wanted to buy more content. That not only made the opportunity cost of not producing larger, it introduced the credible threat of writers picking off the studios one by one or even decamping to a new entrant.

Ah damn, integral*, not internal.
It's already well known that there are huge numbers of vague symptoms caused by viral infections, but the topic wasn't nearly at the top of people's minds before COVID.

For example, herpes viruses. They are widespread and likely cause any number of health problems that are hard to disentangle.
I keep reading these articles. They say that tax sites "shared" or "gave" user data via active pixels, but is that really true?

Don't these companies receive money to host the pixels?

Didn't these companies actually sell user data?

"Giving" and "sharing" are not the same as "selling", yet not one article I've read indicated whether the tax prep compaies received payment for the user data.

Does anyone know?
Ah thanks. Got it.
I have a GitHub Achievement/Badge/Flair/whatever they call it for supposedly having contributed to this and I haven't the faintest clue what I did.
You can absolutely do this for your CI if it allows self-hosted instances. For production as others pointed out, you need connectivity and reliability when something goes down at 3am (power, internet, disk failure).
> It still shocks me how people seem to think that killing all those civilians has any honour at all - the U.S. should have been disbarred from holding nuclear weapons after that.

The firebombing of Tokyo in March 1945 killed approximately as many civilians, and left a million homeless. Also considered a war crime by many.

And yet Imperial Japan did not surrender after that. The IJA and IJN were mostly finished by then. They were unable to hold their conquered territory, and were being pushed back and defeated at sea. What was it going to take for the war council to agree to surrender?
Ask HN: How do you Job Search?
Hi HN,

I'm building https://backed.careers, a niche job board focused on surfacing openings at fast growing companies backed by top VCs (something I wish I had during a previous job search).

I'm wondering:

* How does your job search look like?

* Where/how do you start?

* Do you find opportunities and apply right away, or create a list and bulk apply?

* Before taking an interview, what do you look for/care most about in a company?

* Is there any part in the process that's most painful for you?

Would love to hear others' anecdotes as well.
> The Fediverse missed the boat of becoming the next public square because it was never sailing that route to begin with, if you'll pardon the slightly twisted metaphor.

I agree entirely. There were a lot of people saying that the Fediverse was the next Twitter but that fell flat due, in part, because a lot of Mastodon communities weren't interested.
Apparently (according to TikTok) ending a sentence with an ellipsis is also a Gen-X thing...
Thanks for the correction. The `zfsprops` man page should be updated to reflect that...
Music is a commodity. There's already more music available to let my playlist run for years without repeats. Plus it's never been easier for folk to create, and publish, new music. With endless supply comes diminishing unit value.

So, not to be brutal, but playing music is not an especially valuable thing, and so people really don't need to pay much for it. Ditto for writing books, making ceramics, pretty much anything artistic.

I say this not to be a dick, but simply to point out the economics. When a million other people can do what you do, and live in the same city, then don't expect to make much of a living at it.

Sure there are exceptions (hi Taylor) but that has less to do with actual music and more to do with other factors.

This is the sort of thing why you really want to block 3rd party JS. There are plenty of JS blockers out there, get one and very selectively enable the stuff that you need.
> I always laugh when I see that "furry" is a category too choose server from on the official page.

It sounds like you think "furry" and "hentai" are congruent categories.

My understanding is that hentai is pornographic. Furry, conversely, is not. More information: https://soatok.blog/2021/04/02/the-furry-sexuality-blog-post
Maybe the DO or Paperspace team can build something like RunPod. They support containers and per-minute billing.

Or like replicate.com but find a way to have a model sleep without being completely unloaded.

Maybe a good business model could be a system built around LoRAs or the equivalent for LLMs. That way you could share a lot of instances running the same containers but just swap out the adaptation data quickly for different customers.
You can probably blame a city planner for that. Some cities are actually explorable in the way a video game or theme park is. However, a large problem with many modern cities is they aren't human scale which makes exploration arduous. Cities like Tokyo, Lisbon and Amsterdam are amazing places to just wander around and explore.
For some small percentage of high schoolers who can learn calculus, that knowledge will be worth ~100k a year for 40 years- and worth far more than that for their bosses. We can’t tell in advance who is in that percent, so we hedge by teaching it to all of them.

Poor people don't have mortgage interest deduction and other tax deduction acrobatics, so poor people are harmed today. And removal of paycheck W2 withholding would be a take home pay increase. The tax prep sites and government paper pushers would have to find something else to do for work. The corporate income tax could remain, if you like.
How many readily available American Porters are better or even comparable to the Anchor Porter? I can only think of 1 (Sierra Nevada) off the top of my head.

It's a sad that you can't just sell a Porter anymore. Have to throw banana and peanut butter in it or make it 15% alcohol to get accepted by the 'craft beer' aficionados.
I think stopping drinking was a response to exactly that -- it got out of control, then people quit.

At least in NYC that's when we saw the first non-alcoholic "liquor" stores emerge. Because people still want a sophisticated treat to sip to mark the end of the day.
If all they are after is the data inbound, spinning up something to federate, consume, and forward as a relay on AWS or another cloud host is similarly easy and anonymous - it is exactly the same way that many small instances are hosted.

Trying to prevent Meta from being able to consume ActivityPub content is an arms race that Meta would win with the collateral damage being every small instance of an ActivityPub application.

That collateral damage would be inflicted by other ActivityPub instances rather than Meta itself.
I think IVFFlat and HNSW are very different implementations. So we would be forcing a choice for a pgvector user of what index to use.

Our on disk path will require us to run a number of experiments with the storage format. We will move faster with a separate project.

Medium to long term we are very open to merge them.
The comment makes it sound like they were still taking the money, but no longer offering the service. If that’s the case, they’re in the wrong.
You basically can't send or receive money with any russian person or institution right now.
Hm, this seems like a good idea I hadn't considered! Specifically companies with "low ceilings", yeah this makes a lot of sense, and I can totally imagine how they'd go a lot better internally than more ambitious ones.

> so they tend to fly under the radar

Though, I wonder how to work with this -- there's probably no central place to find these kinds of businesses :P still, I will look into it for sure, thanks for the comment!
64bits RISC-V: yes yes yes.

H.265/H.264: Where is AV1? Coze risc-v is worldwide royalty free, not h.265/h264.

HDMI: same issue than H.265/H.264, I should see a dedicated display usb-c connector (displayport).

But I am being excessive, it is going in the right direction, the next step is to remove H.265/H.264 and HDMI royalties.

That said, has the GPU a lean, plain and simple C written, vulkan3D open source driver?

The pandemic definitely triggered an uptick in "healthier" drinking options, specifically non-alcoholic beers (that are actually good now, hard kombucha and seltzers (that are usually just as alcoholic as beer but have fewer carbs so they are "healthy").

Athletic Brewing Company out of Stamford, CT has grown like gangbusters because of it (and because their beer is legitimately good). Even the big commercial breweries have embraced the trend (Bud Light 0.0 was the only beer you could buy at the World Cup last year, and the only NA you'll find at a lot of bigger restaurants are Heineken 0.0 or Dos Equis 0.0. They are good!).

This has created a lot of problems for taproom-only breweries, as they've had to pivot towards making seltzers (very easy to do for commercial breweries, but some brewers consider it morally wrong), making beers that don't taste like beer (peanut butter chocolate milkshake pastry stouts, anyone?), and/or opening a kitchen/restaurant (completely different business, super thin margins with high operational overhead) to draw patrons in.

As a result, lots of breweries have been merging or shutting down since COVID, and the new ones that have been opening are taproom/restaurants because it's simply not profitable to be a brewery with good beer anymore.

(Interesting fact: There were roughly 2,000 craft breweries nationwide back in the heydays of craft beer in 2010 or so. There are now over 8,000 breweries nationwide! However, the number of craft beer drinkers in the US has been flat since then and actually started falling before COVID started.)

As for me, I initially entered COVID drinking two pints of beer daily; usually heavy IPAs or stouts. Because this agitated my acid reflux to levels I've never experienced, I decided to cut back to a pint or two every other day, with NAs (or nothing) filling the gap.

I've also slowed the rate at which I drink beer so that I drink less (and get less tipsy; truth be told, I love beer but HATE getting drunk).

When I drink, I have a good-sized sip every ten minutes and drink water between sips. As a result, because it takes me 30-60 minutes for me to down a pint this way, I enjoy the beer more while drinking way less per session.

Regardless, Anchor closing is huge and very sad. It looks like Sapporo EEE'd them, which is kind of surprising since they weren't really a threat to their core business.
Is this a 100% totally transparent open source sbc?
I believe it mostly just accelerated the thinking around drinking and why we do it.

Convincing yourself you don't have an alcohol problem when you are out with friends every night is one thing. Trying to accomplish the same persuasion when you are locked in your apartment with just your cat for months on end is much more challenging.

It would seem to me a person typically has 2 paths they can explore at that point: Go deeper into the rabbit hole, or GTFO.
> they act like they DGAF about their own companies losing income and bleeding out on debt service

They literally just went to shareholders and promised to cut spending on new content.

This is not a madman act, it's fundamental leverage. The writers have no way to force negotiations in a game where they lose advantage with time. The studios' optimal strategy is to wait.

> since they don't have infinite financing

Pausing spending on new content is cash-flow positive in the short term. You know what makes shareholders prioritise the short term? High interest rates.
“Trade” may be more accurate than “sale” for an exchange for valuable consideration that is neither money nor denominated in currency, and is certainly much better than “sharing” for an exchange (though I think “sale” is, itself, though loose still reasonable and much better than “sharing”.)
>>I know people that have been explained repeatedly with absolute patience and love that correlation was not causality, with simple examples. They agree on the moment, but wait a week and they still mix it up again and again.

You just proved to them correlation doesn't imply causation in some cases, but no amount of examples will be sufficient enough to prove that is the case in all the cases. This is exactly my point.

If they have seen cases where a cause was strong correlated with some data, so as far as they are concerned, at least in that case they were logically able to conclude there was some connection.

To prove your point, you have to in some way prove a total disconnect between the two(correlation and causation), until then you really haven't proven anything substantial to them. Note you will need some mathematical formulation to do it(Symbol manipulation), which is basically learning a new language from grounds up. It could be impossible. Hence my point.
Do they federate with anybody or are they selective? Who makes those decisions, based on what? This seems like a can of worms to me.
I did keep snapshots pruned to ~300 per subvolume.

But I also had around twenty subvolume I needed to snapshot in this manner.
what license is that? seems atypical?
When moved from Twitter to Mastodon, I was really surprised by the amount of new type of people that I have little to no visibility before: not super famous but good writers, teachers, niche open source enthusiasts, less known indie game devs, open source hardware manufactures, scientists, regional activists, etc. I'm really pleased with the quality of my feed and discussions that I have. Reminds me of Twitter when it was just launched.

People can complain about UX and the slow grow (especially compared to Threads) but the truth is - right now, there is enough audience and content to make it engaging and useful. I don't think there is much value in the explosive growth that some people want from it.
Furries own way more real estate in software than you might think. They also contribute massive amounts of work and code to open-source.
Look at the previous writers strike and what happened to shows like Heroes. Except now it's even worse now that we're in the streaming age. Netflix and other streaming platforms want a half or full season written before the greenlight a project, rather than just a pilot episode. The quality will dive just like in did last time, and people will unsubscribe or just stop watching Netflix which is the last thing they're going to want.
Would be cool if this runs as UWP on an Xbox :-D

As someone who tried the music-or-nothing approach for several years after college and two years in ended up with semi-regular panic attacks, persistent existential dread, and crippling anxiety over finances, I can't recommend getting a day job enough. It saddens me to think of all the creative work I could be doing and all the artistic growth I could be seeing instead of developing marketing software, but at least I'm able to pay my bills, maintain a relationship, and generally live a life that consists of more than just obsessing over music. Less existential dread, too, which helps with focus when I do work on art after work and on the weekends.
It makes sense really. About a week ago there was “code red” storm in the Netherlands, and first phone alarm contained something along the lines of “for more details see this Twitter account”.

Then they removed any mention of twitter from from the second message.
For me it's the end of an era. I started drinking Anchor in the 1980s on frequent trips to Silicon Valley. This was long before microbreweries existed or were even legal in most places, with two exceptions that I'm aware of: Anchor in San Francisco and Shiner in Texas. One's choices of beer in the US included the ones made by the giant breweries and ... almost nothing else except Anchor and Shiner, which were both much better than Bud or Coors or Miller.

But today Anchor and Shiner are objectively not that great compared to modern craft-brewed beers. I still drink them mostly because of nostalgia.
I can see something like Grammarly being quite helpful to a non-native speaker, but if English is your native language, do you still find that Grammarly improves your writing?
As long as some platform is capable and powerful for many things, there will be malware. The reason why most (consumer-facing at least) malware isn't targeting Linux is because its desktop market share is like 3%. It's way better to target Windows on desktop since you can reach way more users that way.

The only other alternative is turning your computer into a glorified phone (a.k.a. a locked-down media consumption device) where everything is nicely sandboxed and nothing has any kind of permission to do "bad" things. (Except tracking. Because guess what, the company who makes the OS also sells ads.)
It's not the whole country, but as a practical matter it's difficult for small companies like Grammarly to determine whether any customers are on the official list of sanctioned entities. Since they probably receive very little revenue from Russia it's safer from a legal compliance standpoint to just block the entire country.

There are also some practical problems with getting payments out of Russia.

This reminds me of an old Russian saying: "It's like trying to shear a pig: too much squealing, not enough wool."
OG Xbox took so long, because most of its exclusives were also available on PC. Halo 1 & 2, for example. So there wasn't much interest. Developers focused on more interesting systems like the PS2 and the GameCube at the time.
It's true, a lot of them even have day jobs.
TI does not make any RISC-V processors.

I've been quite happy with the documentation for the AM335x processors on the standard, ARM-based Beaglebone Black.

But the readme at [1] is exactly why I'm reluctant to pick this board:

> Tracking mainline u-boot/kernel with T-Head patches as needed

> Additional SoC details (Chinese language is good) - pointers to licensed IP is fine

> Clear legal path to usage:

>> Verify the IP in the SoC is licensed for use

>> Verify the IP user documentation can be public [emphasis original, why not the developer documentation?]

>> Signed 3P agreement

> SDK source required to test board

> Documentation needs to launch:

>> Additional SoC details (Chinese language is good) - pointers to licensed IP is fine

You'll pay more for an NXP, TI, or ST-branded SOC than for an Allwinner, Rockchip, or "T-head" one, but even if all you're paying for is documentation it's well worth it IMO.

Edit: It's great that the processor core is an "XuanTie C910 open-source RTL RISC-V". Open-source RTL, wow! The Verilog is up on GitHub [2]! You'll never get that from TI! But the processor core is only a small part of the SOC, there's a ton of other peripherals and other closed-source, closed-documentation IP to run them.
