There was a motor teardown linked on HN at some point.

Essentially: electric motors from the 50s were vastly over designed, which meant they were extremely robust to physical failures

The larger point about stuff now vs then is likely the use of capacitors. And specifically, cheap capacitors in consumer electronics.

Absent electronics, you're talking an order of magnitude longer lifespan.
Depends on how you define "noticeable". If you can measure a small enough distance, you can see the lensing effect of any object.
WinGetty is an open source rest backend that allows you to set up your own winget repository without having to rely on Azure or any other cloud service as Microsoft's reference setup does which is unsuitable for internal tools and also, why?

> I don't understand what a "pedestrian bike path" is.

A narrow paved path through city or suburban parkland, built to be shared by pedestrians and casual, non-electric bike riders. It's an extremely common setup in the US and safe as long as the bike riders ride slowly (which was the cultural norm when such paths were built).

Wannabe racers with road bikes and lycra shorts make such paths dangerous for pedestrians. Fools out of control on electric bikes - even more so.
they own the app "hotels tonight," which is the only way i use airbnb.
While unlicensed delivery riders are definitely a menace in NYC, the article is discussing e-bike safety in a different and much broader context. I think the core of your complaint is valid, but this probably isn't the place to voice it.

> We need an NYPD crackdown on e-bikes/mopeds (mostly delivery riders) to get them off the road, so that drivers can reclaim their rightful first place.

Ah yes, the good old "natural" order of things, where cars come first, just as god intended.
Prominent influencers will highlight your brand in their YouTube pinned comments. Share your concept and connect with potential clients.
It's not really hypothetical: losing communication with stuff in space is a very common failure mode and a huge amount of the system design is focused on making it as unlikely as possible (generally the radio system gets a huge priority in almost everything and there are a lot of failsafes built at every level to make it possible to reestablish communication if anything disrupts it).
Also a looooot of coal.

Apologies if I'm being daft but I'm having a hard time parsing your comment.

What do you mean by:

"you’re basically putting up a sign declaring your intention to violate local laws"

and

"banning VPN clients which won’t geolocate to the country level"

?

Are you saying that using any kind of VPN for any purpose at all would mean you'd get flagged as having intention to violate the law? And what does it mean for a VPN client to geolocate to the country level?
Not OP but I had terrible covid at 38y old around march 2020. My chest xray showed one of my lungs was really bad , and during 3 months I was feeling like crap (includingthe brain fog and all the stuff people mention).

Fast forward 3 years, I go swimming thrice a week, and it sucks that STILL my breathing hasn't recovered. If I try to take a lot of air for several times, I'll start coughing. I get out of air quickly... even though I have strength to keep swimming.
That you'd be able to see it with the naked eye?

α = 4GM/((c^2)b), where b is the impact parameter[0].

Apparently human visual acuity is 0.3 milli-radians, so if b = 1 meter, that's approximately "the moon" (in at most a 1 meter radius volume)…

…assuming I didn't mix up my units in this formula I never used before, though it feels about right given the Schwarzschild radius of the Earth is ~ centimetres.

[0] never heard of this before just now; I think it's the shortest distance between the central point and the path the light would have taken if it hadn't been deflected?
NYC can walk and chew gum at the same time. We can reduce car traffic (I'm for the midtown congestion pricing) and crack down on ebike/scooter violators.

I'm tired as a pedestrian dodging motorized vehicles on the sidewalk. I'm also tired having to look both ways when crossing a one way street because of a salmon-ing bike. Plus, when I'm crossing with the light, many times bikes have come up between the cars and ran the light, just barely dodging me in the crosswalk.

Ebikes and scooters are a real problem in NYC. If they'd just follow some of the basic road safety rules, everything would be peachy.
Apart from the initial efforts that go into the setup, how do you manage day-to-day ops with multiple dashboards?

How do you know for sure that the existing sample was actually produced by the LK-99 process?

Even if it was produced by the LK-99 process, how do you know if all of the required steps and conditions to achieve replication are adequately documented in the process? Reference the FOGBANK debacle.
Probably a French slip up, it mean 'Petites and Moyennes Entreprises' (small and medium companies) and in France is a colloquialism that doesn't really have an English translation? I'd say 'small business', but basically it mean it's a company with more than 2 millions and less than 50 millions revenue (I think you also have an upper and lower limit of workers like two or three hundreds, but the real limits are revenue, especially in our hardware/software fields)
Does your fridge not have crisper bins for veggies? I've had that in pretty much all my fridges, and the bins are always easily removable.

Pull-out shelves not so much (all the fridges I've had, had adjustable but "locked" glass shelving, I would assume for hygiene as a glass shelf is much easier to clean regularly or after a spill, plus they don't block light so much), but they are available on expensive or professional fridges.

Tell HN: Rent an A100 for ~1.$50/hr
Not affiliated in any way just wanted to blast this out here. Really incredible product. Spent about an hour last night going through the big cloud providers trying to get a GPU instance running, only to deal with a nightmare of approval queues. Got up and running with this in seconds. Not sure why more providers aren't using the prepaid model.
You don't need to go to anywhere near that price to get before you hit a sweet spot. For like $600 including tax one of the biggest retailers in the UK will sell you the most energy efficient fridge on the market with a 5 year guarantee. Like most products, you're reaching diminishing returns at a certain point and that seems to be it as far as I can tell.
Given that microplastics barely get any coverage for how large of a problem they are (in terms of how much goes into the environment), I have doubts about any legal restrictions on their use. Even today, it can be difficult to buy anything that's 100% natural fiber at brick and motor stores. At online stores it may or may not even be listed.

The first step would be public awareness. I haven't even seen anyone IRL mention it before. synthetic fiber based clothing is everywhere and worn without any second thought by most. So we're quite quite far from even public awareness at this point.

Maybe in the future, when oil isn't cheap we might see their usage drop, but maybe then you'll see clothing made out of 100% recycled (downcycled) plastic bottles.
The pull out fridge doesn't even seem that great, I just think of shit sliding off the back or you push them in and then you push everything off the front.
This some big leap type world changing stuff if it’s true. I wonder how gas prices would fall if this is true

Do we know they haven’t? The published papers were rushed (due to rogue ex-team member publishing one unauthorized) and they maybe weren’t ready.

I’ve heard a rumor a team from MIT has travelled to Korea.

Who knows right now.
It's not about the definition, it's about reality.

The reality is that markets free of all regulation have all sorts of problems, and so in order to keep them functional and retain (almost all of) the benefits of "free markets", the participants invite/consent/tolerate the "intrusion" of government.

It doesn't really matter if that is a part of the definition or not.
> Why would I not want more insulation in an oven that's going to be used a lot more?

Primarily different regulations. Everyone interacting with a commercial oven is a trained professional getting paid to be there and the space is designed to a certified standard. This means you can focus more on pure performance and less on liability stuff.

And commercial equipment, because it needs to last long, is optimized for maintenance. I imagine insulation makes it harder to access and clean (or fix) the internals of an oven. Not to mention how often you’d have to change the insulation to keep your kitchen up to health standards.
Next time you speak to an appliance repair guy, ask him what appliances he tends to visit most and least often and what the failure modes are.
As far as I know, this is the #1 gradient descent superpower that makes it the preferred choice above all others. I don't think e.g. L-BFGS supports batching, I've certainly never seen it.

Just pointing out that codes make it easier to provide translations and ability to switch between error types with more confidence than string matching.

I think a preventable one. Consider the Air France 447 accident. It came to be due to various conditions. But I remember a lot of headlines about "if only the pilots had not done anything, the plane would have cleared the weather and keep on flying". I think putting the whole thing into a "single slip" enhances the drama.
probably as bad is the "architecture" of AI that a16z put out... https://a16z.com/2023/06/20/emerging-architectures-for-llm-a...

Yes I have the same, but I’ve had a few times that Bing couldn’t find what Google could, so I switched mostly back. Also the fact that you can accidentally scroll too far and end up in the Bing Chat and the Bing homepage news (read: crap) don’t really help.
I'm not sure about the other claims but the most logical reasoning is that China has better supply chains and way more STEM graduates.
I realize this isn't a popular opinion, but it bothers me how those who depict the tragedy of an accident like this seem to do so in the service of painting a dangerous picture of atomic energy, and they do it by ignoring and overlooking other accidental deaths. The Manhattan Project moved blazingly fast, and people died in vehicle accidents, fires, electrocutions, and more. Every death was tragic and represented a life cut short. But it seems like much has been written of Louis Slotin's accident while very little is said of the many others who died more "conventionally".

This is part of the reason that many people have an exaggerated fear of nuclear power when, in fact, the accidental death rate from it (even when you include Chernobyl) is far less than that of petroleum, hydro, and even wind - in some cases by multiple orders of magnitude. It's one of the safest energy sources, but takes a front-seat as the villain of the play when it comes to most articles by media, especially legacy media.
I meant first place in the “idiot crown” :)

However, I do not understand people advocating for two way bike lanes on avenues. It defeats the point of green waves. It would still be faster to go over to 2nd to go downtown rather than (legally) salmoning down 1st and quickly hitting a red light.

With a green wave a cyclist can make 20-30 blocks easily if they are decently trained and riding a road bike. I’ve made it from Houston to the 59th St bridge without hitting a red light (1st Ave tunnel helps!!)
What does it matter if the sample is a room temperature super conductor?
A whole-home surge protector is something everyone should install, just out of general principles.

And if you have appliances/computers die, you should get your electricity monitored to see if it's out of bounds.

In fact, anytime an appliance dies you should do a post-mortem to try to identify if something about the house may have contributed to it (hard water, electrical spikes, etc).
Yes, smart criminals don't get caught (or don't get easily caught, ie. after much effort and resources). They know that breaking the law in one hand can lead to a domino effect. I mean, look at Gus Fring's enterprise. Turns out, the entire chicken nugget industry was a front. They're probably the exception to the rule though.
It shouldn't be necessary to point out the difference between attacking a person and a movement/belief set/organization, but I guess it is.
It's an entity with significant power over your life, which is the meaningful factor.
Pebble did not use e-ink screens, it used a reflective memory in pixel LCD (I believe made by Sharp), refresh rates were never a problem using that technology, because it's just a LCD that has some tweaks for lower standby power usage. More on it: https://www.sharpsde.com/technologies-for/memory-in-pixels/m... It still requires a very small amount of power to keep the screen functioning.

E-Ink uses a completely different technology that does not require energy to continue displaying an image on the screen. Only requires it to change it. Operates by moving charged polymers to make them go to the surface or fall away, similar to etch-a-sketch (edit: I was thinking magna doodle) toy, but charge/not magnetism.
Your parent was not suggesting to catch it, but rather to launch a transmitter to intercept Voyager's radio beam as a relay. Unnecessary, but creative.
Great post highlighting important considerations before you make the decision to go on edge!

If you do though, you should take a look at https://edgenode.com, which I helped build (we host server-less containers on edge)
NetBSD also lacks a BDFL I believe.
That "always" holds for the Julia language almost surely as long as interfaces are missing in the language. It is just a matter of time to find newer issues.
Sure but if you had in your hands a superconductive material at room temperature and ambient pressure you’d be pretty amazed. That’s a lot of credibility right there.
It's now pretty clear that chemical fuel systems, i.e. any system based on the combustion of a fuel with oxygen to generate heat/pressure/motive force, are going to be fairly niche markets in the future. International jet travel and orbital launch rockets, and maybe long-distance commercial shipping, are about it.

The real value of renewable-energy-powered chemical synthesis will be in the production of things like fertilizers, dyes, carbon fiber, etc. Basically you can take the entire fossil-fuel-sourced front end of the petrochemical industry and replace it with hydrogen and carbon inputs from water and atmospheric CO2 respectively.
Why would that matter? It's not like they could just be taking an over-the-counter room temperature superconductor and passing it off as something they made. If the thing exists and someone can make it, the specific process doesn't matter (but also why would they make it, publish a fake process and then go through all this rigamarole?).
I think this is probably the main issue, too complex to set up on the server. But I agree with what AWS is doing.

For example, when I do an ifconfig, I get 3 ip6 addresses but 1 ip4 address.

'?' indicates a unique value, 'x' means values match between the IP addresses. That alone indicates the complexity of ip6 on setting up the server.

inet6 ????::????:????:????:???? prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>

inet6 xxxx:xxx:xxxx:xxxx::???? prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x0<global>

inet6 xxxx:xxx:xxxx:xxxx:????:????:????:???? prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global>

EPD displays already have that capability.

When you modify the dots you use a modality that is sensitive to former states. What happens in full-screen refresh is a cleanup to redraw on the best former state for the cleanest output.
Red Hat tension with RHEL clones shows up in developer discussion
From the article...
Ruprich's reply was something of a surprise. "Thanks for the contribution. At this time we don't plan to address this in RHEL but we will keep it open for evaluation based on customer feedback," he wrote.

Wright then asked: "Is customer demand really necessary to fix CVEs? I kind of understand (the fix) if you don't want to rebase to a newer version but I genuinely do not understand rejecting this one."

To which Ruprich shot back: "We commit to addressing Red Hat defined Critical and Important security issues. Security vulnerabilities with Low or Moderate severity will be addressed on demand when customer or other business requirements exist to do so."

Wright was clearly puzzled by this attitude, asking: "I can even understand that, but why reject the fix when the work is already done and just has to be merged?"

I live in NYC and I agree with you. I ride bikes for my entire life in different cities and I've never seen so many bikers with a death wish. They dash in between traffic and blatantly ignore any applicable traffic rule. Not even bikers in India and China dare to ride this fast in traffic.

I just want to add that the food delivery bikers don't ride on the sidewalks solely because they can't go fast on the poorly maintained NYC sidewalks. If they could they would go at 30 miles/hour on sidewalks.

EDIT: I am working in an office at Time Square right now. I just looked down the window and counted 2 delivery bikers going at ~15miles/h on the sidewalk (The buildings are new and their developers fixed the sidewalk.)

Today's refrigerators are much more efficient.
Luckily Louis Vuitton is a publicly traded company, so we can see that its average profit margin is actually only 12%.

Rule of thumb says that a company needs a 10% margin to be considered healthy. This suggests that while they are in a good place at current wages, there isn't a whole lot of wiggle room.

People will take anything if you give it away for free, but it is doubtful that their products would still remain desired by the customers if wages went up and they retained a healthy margin. Fashion products aren't exactly inelastic.
Mopeds are fine, every moped rider treats their moped like a motorcycle. I've never seen a moped driven on a sidewalk, nor a motorcycle. E-bikes are another story, it seems like every other e-bike rider treats their ebike like a 10 year old child with a bicycle, e.g. thinking it reasonable to ride on the sidewalk. Adults on bicycles shouldn't be on the sidewalk, much less adults on e-bikes. It's fine for children to do this because they're small and slow but when you have a 200lb adult male going 25mph down the sidewalk with a motorized vehicle, there's obviously a problem.
Those problems are real and valid, but they seem to be downstream of the problem the article is about: roads are unsafe for cyclists.

I don't have a study proving it, but it seems plausible personal mobility device riders would be less likely to ride on sidewalks etc if they could safely ride on the street.
Arc: A radical fresh take on the web browser
The problem with ebikes/scooters in NYC is that I no longer feel safe on sidewalks. 5 years ago, I always felt safe on sidewalks but would always cross roads carefully (I have a rule about never looking at my phone when walking across a road).

But now on sidewalks e-bikes will zoom past me from behind at fast speeds startling me. I fucking hate it. I can no longer walk in peace in the city anymore.
Most customers will have very few public IPs. If your architecture is based around dozens (or even more) of public IPv4 addresses then you need to rethink your design because cost isn’t the only risk you’re exposing.
There is a significant reduction in color depth and refresh rate, plus a need to provide external lighting to make up for the lack of built-in lighting, which, depending on the office environment may cancel out any power savings.
Airbnb only cares about hosts. Expect nothing from them but a tax and you'll be happier.

Read the methods section of the study.

> The issue with this is that the amount of vitamin D someone might take is correlated with how much sun exposure is available. And the amount of available sun exposure can impact what is considered a little / a lot to each person.

That could be case but not necessarily in this study.
They deemed them unnecessary, so culled their numbers.
Bikes shouldn't be sharing the road when the speed limit is 55mph. That is crazy talk. Ebikes are a problem in NYC because no one follows rules in NYC. People act in any way they want because it's tough to police a city with so many people packed in so densely. This isn't a one thing or the other, you need better rules, and you need to be able to enforce those rules. If you can't enforce them and the rules don't work then you need to change the rules until they do.
