The idea of lithium batteries dates back to the 1910s. It is not a new idea. But this is irrelevant because both had their major advancements more recently.

The fundamental problem with batteries is that they're heavy, highly resource dependent, and take a very long time to recharge. This is not going to change unless you take extreme measure like battery swapping. Furthermore, as the world shifts towards SUV sized BEVs, it becomes its own environmental and societal menace. This is a doomed idea in the long-run.

The thing about fuel cell cars is that they are also EVs. They are basically the same idea as BEVs, just without the giant batteries. This gives us far greater flexibility. You can even envision the idea of plug-in fuel cell cars, eliminate pretty much any real arguments against them as a general idea. Everything can be shifted towards zero emissions just like BEVs.

And because FCEVs do not have the huge batteries of BEVs, they are fundamentally more sustainable. And if you are aware that they are also EVs, then they should eventually close whatever efficiency gap you imagine them having. Ensuring that the long-term world will be one dominated by FCEVs.

These are all simple and straightforward bits of reasoning. It does not take much effort to see that FCEVs are the future, and the only question is when. BEV fanatics like you are just spamming FUD against them, many of which are total red herrings. These are terrible arguments and all it does is undermine the credibility of BEVs. In fact, these are signs of a technology that is running out of steam, not a technology on the rise. If you need to lie to defend your business, then you are headed down the path of Reddit and Twitter, just waiting until some disruptive event drives you out of business.

Owning actual cryptocurrency is a huge hassle with concerns about key storage, hot vs cold wallets, etc. Investors are much more likely to already have the infrastructure in place to hold an asset like an ETF, so offering bitcoin wrapped in an ETF presents the opportunity to these investors to get exposure to crypto valuations without getting exposed to crypto hacks.

I think the _last_ AI hype train went even quicker. Remember around 2016 there was a period of about three months when everyone was going on about chatbots? Culminated in Microsoft Tay, after which everyone quietly backed away and no-one mentioned AI again for about six years.
This sounds a lot like the Brave browser model. I am unsure how well the company is doing, and how well the users who opted in to receive BATs are doing, though.
I didn't know that. Edge is too good. Just downloaded and such features are great.
The culture at our company is Slack + meetings. Slack drives me crazy because there's SO MUCH in there that it's hard to navigate and search. I'm probably a member of 250 channels. Meetings are ephemeral; I prefer written communication for future reference.

I really think SAR should be realistic about what's going on and quickly publish what they are trying. Otherwise you can get people who could help showing up with the wrong equipment, or not showing up at all, or people showing up who think they can help but can't and don't know it due to the lack of information.
I'd suggest the worst tutorial was for Driver (PS1).

Not only is it an unskippable tutorial, it's a goddamn driving test, and was impassible altogether unless you pulled off some poorly-detected stunt move you'll never need to use.

I've only ever managed to get past it once, despite repeat attempts.

Sure let me attach an ethernet cable to my VR headset, and then magically pull another from the wall to attach to my laptop. Can't forget the mystical third wire which I need for my phone!

Hopefully it doesn't take much to grasp the benefits of ethernet without a cable directly to your device at all times, right?
Did you read the paper? They intentionally steered the quality to ensure they sound fake. Their generated speech is "very easy to detect" according to the reference at the end of the paper.
Some people like fixing problems for their own sake and giving away the fruits of their labor to maximize the overall benefit. The notion that the profit motive is the only reason anyone gets up in the morning is false.

I think I'm running into some of those gotchas with older wiring. I've got moca adapters set up between a few rooms and have periodic dropouts on one of them, which unfortunately is the room with my wifi AP.

Traced the cables and the only splitter I can find is a moca 2 aware one, and the coax cable that would have been used for cable internet is unplugged so that's not interfering.

Nice when it works, real pain to troubleshoot when it doesn't.
Sure, but even that cherry looks a whole lot more like the rest of the numbers I've found than the one grandparent comment offered.

The study you cite only examines the costs for cardiometabolic disease, not all healthcare costs. And then says that suboptimal diet is responsible for 18% of that specific category.

"18% of the costs of the one category most closely linked" and "5-10% of all healthcare costs" seem like plausibly compatible measures. Whereas the grandparent comment's claim remains out of synch with those by an order of magnitude.
Seems like we wouldn’t be far at all from just correlating this to face movement (including subtle iris movement and blinks, not just the mouth). As long as you clearly label it as CGI it’s harmless and I’m excited for the day to come. Might be quite fun to chat with a little buddy this way
"My build pipeline is failing. Can you help me?"

OK, which pipeline, what errors are you receiving, when did it last work, any changes since then, etc.? A lot of people aren't good at communication, period. It's like pulling teeth sometimes.
> If the mechanics need such a long explanation, they’re probably bad.

Or you're not part of the target audience. For a AAA title, I agree. But I wouldn't blame, say, Crusader Kings for having complex mechanics because that's the entire point of the thing.
I feel like the missing piece is transparency. Otherwise it’s like tipping: a lingering skepticism that funny financials are happening in the background.
Had you read the article, you'd realize she's talking about men in the United States generally, and in North America slightly more broadly.
Of course, but the point is not just to get configuration into git, it's also to get out of the business of SSH'ing to individual servers.
> So why aren't new doctors opening their own practices?

For the same reason that nobody builds out a second set of power lines to compete with an incumbent power utility.

It's capital-intensive, the size of the medical market for the area is fixed, and you'll just be fighting the established practice for it in a zero-sum game.

You can win, but it's going to be way more work for less reward than just finding a PE practice that's hiring/a traditional practice with spare space that's looking for a partner.

Exactly 1. Job security.
Piggybacking this to say I will never be extremely productive when all my job boils down to is shifting code from one place to another, or building yet another braindead CRUD endpoint. My mind begins to wander and think about other things. I hear a lot of "we want to use our engineers in the best way possible" only to put people on mind-numbing zero-thinking framework guided work that doesnt capitalize on any of the traits of a good engineer. Before the frothing at the mouth business-minded people start saying "creative engineers are dangerous" I would suggest you actually go talk to your engineers. I doubt they say they want to greenfield a production idea in haskell. What they want is something that isn't the programming equivalent of a box ticking TPS report.

It's a very relevant comment. It tells you to not rely, or expect further development, on any new Google technology, even seemingly good ones, as it can go to the graveyard like many others.
The details you gave me are so important that you kind of buried the lede in your documentation. This should be front and center in your documentation. Your focus in your README and your summary in the original post is on convenience and not enough about security.

From what you described here, I am more comfortable with the implementation.
Facebook. TikTok. Heck, nebula.

I think we keep thinking of like “What’s exactly like YouTube?” vs “What is an alternative video-format hosting platform?”

The way we consume video format content keeps changing. If YouTube ends up losing people, then it doesn’t mean the think that takes its place needs to be the exact style of video content.
Search and rescue authorities very much do not want people just showing up with equipment based on what they heard on the news---if you are involved in search and rescue, disaster response, or related areas, one of the first things drilled into you is that you must never "self-activate." It puts an enormous workload on the people in charge of the incident if you expect them to keep the entire world informed about the state of the search, and an even bigger workload if people start showing up without having been asked. Organizations like the Coast Guard have a public information function to manage the press and cold contacts, and a logistics function to call upon resources. Volunteered resources are rarely useful if they have not been vetted and had operational procedures established in advance.

My experience is only in wildfire and structure fire, but everything I've heard is that the situation is much the same in SAR and I can only imagine the issues with needing to having resources prepared in advanced are only more significant at sea where integration is very complex.

No, not even the SEC & that's the cause of major court cases currently.

In normal security offerings, there's disclosures coming from the issuing company about financials/profitability etc but btc/eth are peer to peer networks so there's no-one in the middle to do these things & it is very different to normal securities.
> At the very least, we should be aggressively working toward fast neutron reactors so that we don't have spent fuel that will remain dangerously radioactive for 100,000+ years.

So, you propose to increase number of regulations and total cost of the nuclear energy, right?

I partially blame modern game APIs such as DirectX12/Vulkan. Note that I am not saying these APIs are bad, just that the “programmable” part has no default, leaving it up to the developer to figure things out.

There was a time when you didn’t need to know what a shader was to build a game engine/game. The fixed function pipeline was super simple. Limited, but simple.

Vulkan and DirectX 12 made things even more complicated because they wanted to have better multithreaded support.

Engines try to bridge the gap between the APIs and games, but they end up creating an entire set of new things (like “scenes” and “nodes”) or entire new languages (like gdscript) that you have to learn. (yes I am aware that Godot supports multiple languages)

These days I probably use monogame the most. It seems to provide just enough to make things “easy” for me without introducing a ton of new stuff as a learning curve. Outside of that, OpenGL still exists, and you can probably find some basic shaders should have have no desire to learn all about pixel/vertex/whatever shaders.

…or maybe I am just old and cranky and miss the good ole days.
The most impressive part of this is that they are seemingly able to produce 30 seconds of TTS with just 3 seconds of source material. That is super cool and honestly much more further in the curve that I expected it to be.

Working on codebases - like rails without rubocop - is not something I would like to consider. There is already too much variability in how people code.
I can pick up a bicycle and walk away with very little effort. They're usually less than 20lbs.

"For marketplaces (Turo, Airbnb) - help hosts write clear and concise descriptions,"

To do this, wouldn't the prompt to the LLM have to be clear, concise and detailed for it to be accurate...meaning, at that point, you wouldn't really need the LLM, just use your prompt...
So crazy thought I had.. As far as I understand these models can only do a fixed amount of work per token of output. So asking for it to show its work has two benefits, it lets it reference previous results it worked out, but it also plain gives it more computational resources.

So I'm curious what would happen if you prompted it to stall for time a bit with an answer like "hmm.... err... let's see.. what about 81?"
It’s not hard to end up requiring a Google account.
Seems like the fact that it's a "tightbeam" vs. WiFi's broad coverage could result in some fun niche hacks like tiny autotracking IR transceiver turrets that follow devices around a room or (working together to hand off the connection) a building, or larger versions that keep two transceivers pointing at each other over a longer point-to-point link. Who will be the first hobbyists to establish a LiFi link bounced off of one of the old retroflectors on the moon?

If the IR is bright enough, it might even make sense to put a NIR camera in every access point so it can double as an unobtrusive security camera, and/or track devices (for beam-forming, forensic information for physical security staff, etc.).
I still remember when my dentist sold his practice to a larger group. Suddenly they found things that needed to be fixed immediately during every teeth cleaning. After two years I went I another dentist and suddenly my teeth were healthy again.

I think private equity will break capitalism. Instead of people being interested in something and also making profits, with PR you have people that only care about profit and have no passion for the product.
Work by amateurs on Linear A does not have a good track record. Since the dawn of the internet era it has drawn more crackpots than almost anything else language-related. Within the professional linguistics community, if someone comes along and claims that he has made any progress towards decipherment, it is generally met with skepticism so strong that one questions that person’s mental health. That said, this website has a caveat that it is for recreational use only, and it points to John Younger’s page at the University of Kansas for something serious. Lay readers on HN should take that caveat very seriously.

Iran would keep the internet blocked to the level they had during the height of the protests if no one cared about economics. They don’t because it actually costs everyone.

During times of tension (e.g the protests) the cost becomes worth it.
it quickly became apparent that ChatGPT was exceedingly willing to outright lie to you.

I've sometimes thought that these "AI" chat systems might be better if they were taught the simple human phrase "I don't know."

I think it would improve trust in these system if people knew that they had limits, and were aware of them.

It would be even better if something like the one on Bing, for example, could respond "I don't know, but here are some links to places where you might find the answer…"

It's like when it starts to become apparent that the new kid at school is a compulsive liar. Eventually people stop listening to him.

Yes. I'm not saying Google's Top Cloud offerings are bad although i still think microsoft's stuff is better.

Just that

1. It's behind their current sota research

2. You can only use those voices extensively by paying for it. Microsoft offers their best stuff on edge for free. So for reading aloud a pdf or web page, microsoft is far better.

In some cases perhaps, but there are a lot of cases where asking ChatGPT and then verifying its answer is (much) faster than trying to figure out the answer on your own.
I was working on adding a deadbolt to an exterior door. I started doing a lot of fine measurements to drill it out because I didn't want to crack the glass which was kind of close to the edge of the door.

Which I then questioned what the hell am I doing adding a deadbolt to a door with a massive window. If someone wants to get in, they're gonna get in. The only thing that really keeps my family safe is the fact the vast majority of my neighbors don't want to hurt me, not some lock on my door.

This is RIGOL we are talking about. In a year, they will release a firmware that solves the RCE but opens two more and also breaks cursors (or some other very basic thing). A year after that, they will release a second firmware that fixes the cursors but breaks the calibration and still has the two new RCEs.
As someone who's also been bit by 120Vac early in my career - albeit less severely than Mr.C - I can attest to it feeling much like he describes. His description of feeling like he was "shoved out of his chair" is quite common. Most likely caused by the severe muscle spasms that can accompany such a shock. The cause of death for many electricians who get shocked isn't from the shock itself, but from head injuries associated with falling off ladders.

It was determined to be vasovagal syncope. One AME said 1 event is the limit 2 events means I'm out of luck. Later, I paid a senior AME to review my case and they first said the vasovagal period was too long but then changed their mind and said I could try getting a loop recorder implanted. I haven't gotten a straight answer as to how long I'd have to do that but it must be quite a while if they don't want to do a patch / Holter monitor.

Everyone seems to have different opinions, no local AMEs are apparently qualified for this and I'd need to drive hours / fly to one that is. I'm apparently just destined for deferral limbo as the FAA can just defer and let you spend more money and time trying to fight it. I'm out thousands already and there is no clear path forward. It's really remarkable considering the things pilots I've known have been through (e.g. heart surgery) and then me, perfectly healthy and never any serious medical conditions or on any medications, gets the end around. Truly disappointing and frustrating.
> Commercial aviation hasn't had a hull loss in more than a decade, but private pilots are crashing every few days.

Oh boy wait until you hear about automobiles. Gonna blow your mind.

The goal is not (should not be) maximum safety at all costs. It's a balance of safety, cost, and convenience.

Come on, man.

Of course a 400 million dollar jet at 35,000 feet with top-of-the-line avionics, redundant systems, IFR flight plans, and professional co-pilots with thousands of hours of flight time is going to be safer than Grandpa Bob in his Glastar.

The question is whether a private pilot with an Aderol prescription presents a public safety risk significant enough to revoke his license. What's the FAA's data to prove that it does? Non-existant?
