"Analog" and "digital" do not refer to the physical process of transmission, such as radio waves, but the interpretation of the signal. A digital system has rules for forming and interpreting the signal, so that the transmitted and received messages are identical. These rules typically involve things like signal level thresholds and timing.

Well-engineered systems have "noise immunity" meaning that the thresholds are well above the noise floor, making the likelihood of an error negligible.

If you hang an oscilloscope probe on a "digital" signal, such as the data lines on a memory chip, it might look like a frightening mess, but so long as the rules are obeyed, data transfer occurs faithfully.

In a true analog medium, there's no way that the receiver can make out precisely what was sent, and two receivers will get different information.
The US calculates inflation ~1% lower than others (chained dollars), this accounts for ~15% of the difference.
So, not for naught? Seriously, we’re social creatures that live for others. You can have 40 good years serving the next generation, building wealth for them and sharing in their joys.

I’m sensing this strange notion in older generations where they absolutely refuse to let go and insist on keeping their youth and the spotlight to no or some avail. Technology is getting better and making people hold on for longer but I think it leads to your kind of statement that life ain’t that great unless we’re out there crushing it all the time.

I guess it fits nicely with the declining notion that having children isn’t worth it either.
If you're only saying it's better for this single ratio then that doesn't make it a more accurate model. Statistics can be closer on a single number by pure happenstance.

If you want to say it's a more accurate model then you need to defend it more broadly.
> I very much do not care about who discovered/created/published it, except only if it helps me quickly ascertain the trustworthiness of said information. I do not want to be forced or prodded to establish relationships with creators or communities. I do not want their ads and upsells.

And this is why humanity is going down the tubes...because you want something, you derive value from what you want, and yet you do not care about giving something back to who makes it.

Karma is weird. You spend an hour agonising over the composition of a well-written comment and get down-voted.

Or maybe, you write a quick throwaway one-line comment, and upvotes instantly increase your karma by 50.

Single quantum well LEDs are well-commercialized at 150 Mbps for MOST150 (that was intended to, running over POF, be cheaper than an ethernet PHY and copper); I'm not sure exactly where SQW LEDs drop off and laser diodes become the only option, but it's substantially faster than traditional LEDs.

what if drivers painted their cars a distinct color, like yellow maybe, and they were always out there... and you could just spot them on the street and wave your arm, and they'd come get you? you wouldn't need an app for that, and wait around for them to show up.
Being NP-hard doesn't mean it's unsolvable at all. It means it's not solvable quickly. Google maps does this millions of times per day... the number of points on the trip are few enough that you can brute force it perfectly or use a heuristic to solve it faster but less optimally. Very solvable just not optimizable algorithmicly.
The problem is that the US doesn't know how to build proper walls. It's a wall. I don't have X-ray vision, I don't know what's happening on the other side of it. You don't either. So why is it a problem to share a wall? Noise. But if you use building materials that aren't paper, then sharing a wall becomes not a problem. If one neighbor wants to blast their music at 3am, and another neighbor has to wake up at 4am to go to work, and the building they're in lets them, what, then, is the problem?

Unless it's just the knowledge that there's people on the other side of the wall bothers you, but that seems silly.

The idea is that if it costs $r to store a base-r digit, then base 3 (or e in a continuous scale) turns out to be the most efficient. Obviously, there's no a priori reason to think that a 3-level gate is exactly 1.5x more expensive than a 2-level gate, so this is mostly of theoretical interest.
No time for Caution
All true statements. However, it's conceptually easier to grasp the impact of 3% of my time when I think about what I can or cannot accomplish in a 1.5 week period, rather than a 15 minute period. Some 15 minutes are jam-packed with productivity, while others are a coffee break, so I don't really understand what 15 minutes of my time is worth. Whereas, each work week is nearer to my average productivity, and I have a much clearer idea of what that's worth in terms of work output.

If a person reads this "if you do the math" reasoning and has a different reaction to the same cost depending on how it's presented, then, wasn't it a good thing that the reader was given a variety of ways to think about the cost? (Since, necessarily, the reader's reaction to at least one of the presentations was incorrect.)

A truck will burn a lot less fuel per kg of cargo. That's because it is carrying many packages at once and fuel consumption is split across all packages. A drone only carries one package. So in reality a truck is a way more efficient way of delivering good.

Yeah it's a 16". I spent two weeks vacationing in Europe and then a 3rd week working at night, and it was a pain to carry that MacBook around! It forced me to bring an entire backpack to carry it. Not fun to add all of that weight when I was also hauling a camera around. That's where the Nano thrives. Even the 14" is considerably heavier than Nano as you've pointed out.
It was good to find this forum- I have been looking for constructive feedback on my human-powered air compressor.
I have been working on the project for 3 months, and I am still making many improvements as I use the machine. The configuration featured in the LowTech Magazine has been updated considerably, and I am now getting close to the performance limits of the basic design.
If anyone has any questions or suggestions, please feel free to comment.

Some quick replies to previous comments:
-The amount of pedaling needed to keep the tank topped off depends on the amount at which air is emptied from the tank.
-A steam engine powered design would be cool to see, but not currently in my skill set. Steam power might also prove challenging in an indoor environment.
-The total cost to build this machine was roughly $1000USD in parts, but I could have lowered the costs considerably by sourcing more used components. I also bought some parts to try that were updated to an improved design. I did just score another 80gal tank for $20USD, so the deals are out there if you take the time to look for them.
-The pedaling effort is easiest when the tank is empty, and gets progressively harder as you build pressure.
-The air system has no noticeable leaks, and I monitored tank pressure closely for a few weeks with no measurable pressure loss.
-Energy will not get cheaper.

Tbh its a weird launch.

Seems it still wasn't ready. I guess they wanted to push it out while it was at "peak-hype" but I have a real feeling of "now what?" when going on there. Can't look at companies and celebrities tweeting all day, lol.
People have been testing them for ages. There's something there, but not nearly as much as the hype implies. At the same time, the hype seems to only increase.

Yes you can do sales but are you effective at selling? Anyone can “do” sales but being a good salesperson that you can build a company around is something else. Same goes for other non technical roles. I suspect you are overvaluing your engineering background and are either overplaying your ability to do what your non technical cofounder is doing or undervaluing the work they’re doing.

Now that countless engineers have seen first hand how good he is as an engineer, this quote feels quite funny to me. Elon Musk seem to be impressive mostly in areas you don't understand yourself, as you can't see though his BS.
We used to do this on several hpux servers at $dayjob. However 95% of those servers have long since been decommissioned, and the remaining server didn't actually need it to begin with. (It was really anything that had an oddball database that needed it)

I don't know about that. Firstly, do we know that the site can financially withstand a gigantic drop in traffic gracefully enough to avoid becoming the next Quora? Advertising doesn't pay out more for developers with novel technical questions. Secondly, will a failed ChatGPT inquiry still lead to an SO post so new good quality questions keep rolling in? What if they start to lose prominence in search rankings because they wouldn't be the go-to anymore? I could see people using reddit or the like to serve the same purpose in a much friendlier format.

Ask HN: What is the most practical tool/website you discovered on Hacker News?
Hello everyone, recently I have been going through the historical content on Hacker News and have discovered numerous practical tools and websites. However, due to the overwhelming amount of historical content, I haven't been able to go through all of it. So, I would love to hear yours.
This has already been shown to be true, many times.

There are significant problems with swcnts (and even more so with dwcnts or mwcnts, due to less effective macrophage breakdown from h2o2 release).
But there are some applications where their use can be a large improvement. The fact that only very well trained professionals should ever come in contact with certain materials (like extremely high powered lines) makes this use case more acceptable. Additionally, concealing swcnts in a polymer and using extrusion methods of chlorosulfonic acid into carbon tetrachloride to make really compact nanowires can help quite a bit for making the product affect the public less if any problem may occur that downs the power lines.
This looks useful for showing a demo to management folks. The fact that it's readily available just makes it even better for scaring them.

Both these things should not be an issue for anyone, just one or the other.

My (spectator's) understanding is that ABI compatibility is not a priority for kernelspace in Linux, but there is care taken for backwards compatibility in other ways (like at an API level). You're just expected to recompile your out-of-tree kernel modules when there's a new kernel version.
Is that not what he just said? Surely a prime example is Germany shutting down nuclear and and bypassing Ukraine as a Russian natural gas hub woth Nord Stream 2. Whoops.

> I'd rather the Navy be pretty sure they were dead and tell me

Yes, because obviously you and us other media gawkers were the most important consideration here. Not you know, the families stuck essentially knowing their loved ones were dead, but still not having heard those words that finalize it. Also I don't know why they have to delay publicizing it to tell the families directly, when they could just hear it from the same news broadcast as everyone else

The biggest problem I noticed in your post is the tense you're using to describe yourself. You're describing your story in the past tense. You now have the resources to write an even more successful/interesting/fulfilling chapter in whatever line of business is most interesting to you and potentially have another step function in wealth. Each step function in wealth gives you more potential for impact in a measurable way in other peoples' lives. I hope you decide that you're just getting started.
it was determined that the drones created too much wind, worsening the global airspeed crisis. hard to justify them after that.
That's not a fact at all. For example, memories seldom come to me when smelling, like they say they do with everyone.
At $dayjob, PACS devices use a separate VLAN and can only talk to their servers. Although to be fair, most of the problems with that system are down to the frontend using outdated js/asp/Java code that edge/chrome doesn't support anymore.

Now I wonder if notebooks are counted in "desktop PC category" assuming they are x86 notebooks (x86 ~ PC).
Then you plainly don't know what that means. Appeal to authority means trusting someone who doesn't know the answer but you imply that that person does, or that the argument doesn't need evidence beyond the words of a person. It doesn't refer to actual experts in the field who have done actual research.

As I said from the outset, you are free to present any counterevidence. Heck, even a person of similar expertise saying otherwise. Anything more than you denying it.
Aside from some trick (as in the article) of using the breath to momentarily affect the amygdala, I believe the general emerging rule is to pause, in response to a temptation, just long enough to call to mind a preferable/practical alternative. I've seen this characterized as "you only need a moment of willpower".
It was economical for Germany to partner with Russia at the expense of Ukraine.
> Kotlin's sequence pre-dates co-routines.

You misunderstood. The `Sequence` type does predate coroutines. But I meant the `sequence` builder function, which takes a block of suspending code to create a `Sequence`.

The in-order traversal in the article can be translated to Kotlin:

fun walk(t: Tree?): Sequence<Int> = sequence {
if (t != null) {
yieldAll(walk(t.left))
yield(t.value)
yieldAll(walk(t.right))
}
}

As I have noted above, this is a use of coroutines that has nothing to do with concurrency.
Out of curiosity, what are use cases/applications of this?

So what I know is that this generates images via browser rather than server. The only thing I can think of is not having to refresh the page in order to change an image or generate a new image. Which... hmm, well, that could mean websites whose visual design changes in real-time? And maybe changes in a way that would be functionally relevant/useful? That does seem pretty cool, although I'm not sure how useful Stable Diffusion is for generating UI components/visual aspects of a site.
Yeah, so I'm agreeing that this would be a great library, but disagreeing that it should be a language feature. Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

Are Aruinos really aimed at the professional prototyping market? I’ve always had the impression they are aimed at students and hobbyists. These two groups are generally more price sensitive but do also value ease of use.

This comes across as overly snarky. At best, you delayed productive conversation by the time needed for two asynchronous comments. At worst, you shame someone out of getting an answer to their question.
Germany has slowed down because the productivity gains from 20 years ago ("Agenda 2010") have run out of steam (Merkel didn't do anything for productivity for 16 years), more recently consumer demand has decreased because Germany was hit by high gas costs (everyone heats with gas) and the current government increased costs for consumers (e.G. everyone needs to replace their gas heating - driven by the minister for the economy, madness! - who is a vice chancellor and therefor minister for economy but needs to play to his green base and does environment policty instead of economics) - so consumers have a very negative view of the future and are very cautious with their money.

Dropping German consumer demand has nothing to do with competitiveness and trade surpluses.

Not my industry, but imagining that they accept rides within a 48 hour windows from now. You’d quickly get something somewhat similar to a TSP. But given that you have lots of additional constraints (people tend to have a clear idea when they want to get from A to B) compared to the classical TSP, it might actually be easier to solve. As those constraints limit the paths you must evaluate.

It is worth pointing out there are other reasons for loss of smell sensitivity. A lifetime of steroid sprays for hayfever, allergy and rhinitis.

So "OMG I can't smell it must be dementia" needs to be modulated through "yea: have you had a lifetime of squirting stuff up your nose"

Hence (and other reasons, but this would be one) the MAY in the title.
