The red and blue pallets specifically are owned by just two companies. The pine pallets are stolen from local shopping centres etc.
Costco is worse then that—if you search their website, you have to select “Only show in-stock items”

Why would I want to see items they don’t have? And thats their default.
Not in any straightforward way I can see. Some obvious differences:

- This result has effectively only two colours: "coloured" and "not coloured".

- This relates to an infinite continuous plane of points rather than a finite, discrete set.

- This has a notion of distance, whereas the four-colour theorem is more about connectivity.

That said, the idea of using a computer to aid a proof did also occur in the original proof of the four colour theorem.
And quite a lot of them are getting regulated or have been regulated for decades, how does government regulation not scale? There are countries, times and places where you can’t light a bonfire anymore. There are things you are not allowed to burn at all. There are things you are not allowed to spill, things you aren’t allowed to transport, things you aren’t allowed to discard without permission. Honest question, what is the thing that affects the atmosphere that much and we can’t regulate it?
I'm pretty sure we've been through this kind of thing before, and I'm also pretty sure AI will just be a part of the future, not replace it.
If we could harvest and store the anti-electrons they would be very efficient at generating heat.
Do you trust your friends to not post illegal things to your server?
Attempts to normalize this as some kind of folksy traditional community bonfire thing requires such levels of misdirection and sleight of a hand that they'd be better off doing magic shows in Vegas. These kinds of events are purely and simply displays of racist and sectarian hate - no different from burning crosses in Alabama.

The effigies of the Pope are the more friendly of the things burned on these bonfires, the less palatable include Irish and Basque flags for whatever reason, slogans exhorting genocide, and even pictures of previous sectarian murder victims [1][2].

It's a thoroughly vile event that happens each year, wrapped up in some false sense of "culture".

The implementation will be really interesting: can a VM, container, or RDP be compliant ever with WEI? To proof - or give at least a solid certainty, a runtime is direct connected to a GUI, and function calls triggered by this GUI are coming from event handler, triggered by human interactions with a keyboard or pointer device, WEI would need a separate channel to the cam.

This means the only way to make this proof is to link the current environment and interactions with a history of interactions stored by a third party (i.e. Google). This only would make WEI to a new layer on top of todays fingerprinting.
Its abit outdated. But it think you may enjoy reading through Oliver Lodge's book, "Signalling Through Space Without Wires"

The article quotes the price at 20k
> e.g. by adding a delimiter between fields and doing a find and replace on that delimiter (carefully, e.g. CSV rules with quotes and escapes)

Once you set up "CSV rules" then you won't need to find and replace anything, CSV is perfectly sufficient by itself.
Don't you think this reasoning is a bit black and white?
We've been using influx with much success. I just don't think Prometheus'es pull model is the right one for metrics especially in isolated sites like a DC. Has anyone successfully migrated from influx to Prometheus? If so, why did you do that? What's better now?
I liked jvns' suggestion to add a +human option - plenty of tools have a -h output option which is nicer for quick interactive use, and I value their existence (e.g. I use both 'du -h' and 'du -k' semi regularly depending on if I want to read the results or throw it through an analysis script).
Also worth mentioning, the US Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series (NEETS), plus other interesting documentation one can find from the top menu here.

Looks great! If you could make this a PWA i'd download it for sure.

Suggestion: If you could set intervals of deep work for around 1.5 hour's too and log them that'd be pretty awesome, with breaks in between.
It's nonsensical to claim that the job of the police should be difficult and made to be difficult.

The restrictions and controls, which exist, should be an enforced legal framework. If today the police want to wiretap your phone they need a warrant, that's the control and 'difficulty', but then telcos will route your calls to them at the push of a button.

Again, the issue with e2e encryption is real and complex.
Doesn't sound like a refutation of the article to me. There's a difference between using communication to keep gang ties strong, and using communication to keep family ties strong. A difference between incarceration of people who belong to organized crime syndicates (where their biological family ties are subsumed by their organized crime syndicate ties) and those who are incarcerated for armed robbery of a liquor store because they need cash to pay for their addiction. It shouldn't be a surprise that different prisoners engaged in crime for different reasons, and therefore require different strategies to rehabilitate.
Can you see any other possible outcome from the vast majority of employment being made obsolete?

This is not a trick question, those are genuinely the only two outcomes I can think of.
>Some JSON parsing command line toolkit re-written in Rust [4 comments]? Yawn..

I imagine people come here preceisly because they are that niche that wants to deep dive into those specific technical topics. I wouldn't be surprised if a topic like that could get 100 comments here and barely get a dozen comments on reddit/4chan/etc.

current active example:

In what sense relevant?
It's not capitalism it's society.

The only reason society exists is because it's an iterated form of prisoners dilemma and cooperation outperforms individuals.

If this isn't true the only hope for existence (assuming AGI that can replace humans) is that you're a pet of whatever entity controls the AGI.

Star trek and every other tech utopia I've seen are extremely naive fairytales wrapped in sci-fi mumbojumbo.

Of course it has an authoritarian streak....
Not good enough reason then?
Ability to compute hashes orders of magnitude faster will no more break crypto than the evolution from CPU mining to GPU mining to FPGA mining to ASIC mining did. So, no that part doesn't break crypto. On the cryptocurrency side, the difficulty self adjusts. On the the password cracking side, it reaffirms the need to use memory-hard hash functions that don't speed up so easily.
I left my previous job and got another job then applied to transfer my H1B but the application / paperwork was sent after 60 days have passed since my last day of employment, while I'm still in the US.
I got the approval email from USCIS and now waiting on official document in the mail. Does that mean I'm in the clear?
I have PTSD from that transition.
To me the main takeaway is that there has had to be some advancement in this field over the past two decades if claims of sufficiently-close-to-ambient superconductivity are currently not dismissed outright.

Maybe we'll have maglev everything by the time I'm old and gray.
> Honest question, what is the thing that affects the atmosphere that much and we can’t regulate it?

CO2 sourced from fossil fuels that have been buried for tens of millions of years all being dragged up in the one century.

As opposed to C02 from the surface vegetation cycle of absorption and release; by say, growing pine trees, making pallets, burning pallets, growing more trees.
Have we? I can't think of any previous development that threatened pretty much every form of employment available.

Sure, computers removed a lot of jobs, but they also created a whole new class of them (the ones most people on this site have).

AI will remove that entire class of jobs, too, with nothing new to replace it. For a while, there'll be new opportunities for AI research, but if they actually succeed at improving AI, they'll eventually make themselves redundant, too.
I've been using this while prototyping a few projects and absolutely loving it, the charts are beautiful! Just missing a few essential components like a dialog, toast/snackbar and notification banner but covers at least 80% of the components I need :)
>If you are emotionally invested in a topic then it's probably not technical

you really haven't seen what tech nerds will argue over, have you? There can still be surprising vigor over languages, or over features within a language.
Twitter Tool Detected as Malware
How would you feel about a new software BypassDMs .com that would allow you to advertise on Twitter with no DM limitations at all?
This is dope, I think the benchmarks of speed for python marks it way slower than C++, JS.

If this could be used in mainstream web dev with the level of speed detailed, python might eat Javascript's lunch.

You have to recompile your C extensions for the nogil build. Consider an application where one thread is calling xs.append from a C extension and another is calling xs.pop and xs[-1] on the same list object xs. In the nogil build these operations need to use a fine-grained lock on xs, and in the gil build these are thread-safe due to each thread holding the GIL when it does these operations.

On top of that, some of the list and dictionary operations are available to extensions as C macros to avoid the overhead of a C function call.

However, it looks like the nogil build will be able to run in "GIL mode" for maximum compatibility, including switching to GIL mode partway through execution, but I'm expecting this to be slower than running the gil build in GIL mode.
Yet if you point out that the current state of teens is "not alright", you will drown in comments teaching you that this is something that every genration thinks of the one before, and kids are better and better, get called "boomer"...

Ask HN: What's a good offline crypto wallet?
I'm looking for an offline wallet that derives the keys for various coins using a single recovery phrase. Nothing should be shared with the server. But I also don't want the hassle of maintaining my own hardware. Is there a well-known and well-trusted app that does this?
Exactly my thinking, using more cores is exactly your use case and will hopefully make Python superb at large scale data processing with cross-communication.

I think, rightfully, the concern is people who will try to use this incorrectly causing major bloat to CPython.
As I read the article I came to suspect what he admitted at the end, that he was misusing the airline as part of a psychological dependency, as a way of coping with loss. Sad all around: AA did the normal sociopathic corporate crap, and he also was not supported by society in order to heal properly.

A common example is railroads in Japan, which own the land around the station and either run or profitably lease buildings and services on them, with stations in densely populated areas doubling as shopping centers, hotels etc
It does seem like paper notes are a good reliable option.

Thanks for pointing that out - I don’t mean all 50 year olds struggle with this problem. I guess it is more accurately described as a solution for parents that are depending on their kids/others to give advice/guidance on digital stuff.

The issue with the paper system comes in when they sign up for new things on mobile and they don’t have the paper at hand. It also becomes messy for password changes. And now that we are trying to force them to use unique passwords per service, the list becomes really long! Especially if it is for both parents. Across banking, utilities, social media, paid television, ecommerce, ebooks, etc they have at least 35+ accounts to manage each. They also struggle with their vision which means it needs to be written out in quite large font.

But the main issue I have actually is beyond password management. It is perhaps better classified as general digital security and online identity management. For example, if they use the paper password system I know for a fact they will snap a picture as a backup if I don’t tell and remind them not to do so…

The other issue with the paper system is that there is no good backup. And backups they certainly need!

I totally agree that authentication is general is not solved.
Yep, also comms/marketing people. I once had to explain to someone that nobody outside of Twitter has ever cared about anything that has ever happened on Twitter. It is a pure bubble of unimportant drivel.

The only people who would even know are other Twitter users, most real people in real life don't use it and they are not interested or affected at all.
Lexical scope, first class functions, native coroutines, compiler available at runtime. Trivially extensible. It's semantically really close to lisp. Yep, lua's one of my favourites. The front end syntax isn't what I'd like but whatever, I can still see the AST through it with a little effort.
Not room temperature but very cool to see practical implementations making progress in the form of the SCMaglev line in Japan.

Thank you so much Python core developers and steering council. Python is one of my favourite languages along with Java and C.

I greatly welcome true multithreading in Python.

I use both multiprocessing and multithreading in Python for different projects. See [0] for my multiprocessing example and python Threads for IO heavy tasks in [1]. But it would be far more efficient to use true threads.

Threads can communicate any amount of data in a single atomic almost instant operation. Using the local loopback interface or multiprocessing or pipes, this is not possible.

I am working on a multithreading architecture I call three tier multithreading architecture

https://github.com/samsquire/three-tier-multithreaded-archit...

My goal is extremely scalable and performant servers but Python is probably the wrong job for that.

Welcome to Europe (where college/university is "free" for every resident)?

It's not like it's not feasible.
I liked to play with longwires (sect. 4-22) back in the day ... the longer, the more directional they get. Fun to experiment with (back when copperweld was cheap). But when I did eventually wind up living on a farmstead for a couple of years, I didn't have the time (or the nearby trees) to try out really really long wires.
> It's "free" in the sense that you don't need to re-write large parts of the VM

In that sense, never updating python again is "free" as well, because it would save the python devs the trouble of changing the interpreter. And yet I think we can all agree that Python benefits from the fact that we no longer use Python 3.5

> and teach the entire Python community how to safely write multi-threaded code

People who don't write threaded code don't need to worry about it. And people who write threaded code in python already need to worry about writing thread-safe code. The GIL doesn't prevent race conditions between individual python instructions.

> Python has the means to do that already

And as outlined above, these means are no suitable replacement for true thread based parallelism.
> AI will remove that entire class of jobs, too, with nothing new to replace it

Shit. Are you saying this prompt engineer bootcamp I'm doing is worth squat?
It would, however, be nice if there was a tool (or, as jvns proposes, a +human option to dig) that provided output oriented to somebody who's just trying to -use- the thing rather than reading the RFC first.

(I'm very much a "read the RFC first by default" sort of person because that approach fits my brain, but I don't think everybody should have to do that for relatively simple day to day stuff)
Speed isn't usually high on the list for web development, I create APIs for fintech and we use nestJS for the back end, and nest is definitely slower but you get a lot of benefits that make it completely worth it.

Auto swagger generation, validation pipes and so on.
Reading through his list of "achievements" of always getting into trouble, that looks like a person suffering from mental illnesses.

Ask HN: What interesting scientific phenomena is still little understood?
In the for a long time, very little was known about the phenomenon of Electricity/Magnetism et al. It was seen as something interesting but no one knew what to do with it.

What scientific phenomena exist that you find interesting, but may not currently have any practical applications?
Hmm I get your point. I wonder if the the QML type compiler (qmltc) could still compile to C++. It would seem like dark magic if it did tho, because as you said it hasn't given the types. I wonder if it's possible to put this code in the backend in C++, what do you think?
PostgreSQL shows how far you can get with a single big box and using multiple cores and shared memory. It's incredibly powerful and the vast majority of applications never have data big enough to warrant "100s of machines".
Are you Australian by chance?

It's not "desperate" to evaluate a bill by its actual text. Judging by the presumably incorrect language used in Section 3(b)(1) and the ill-considered mandate to "prevent and mitigate" anxiety and depression in Section 3(a)(1), the Kids Online Safety Act is too sloppily written to deserve serious consideration. If the intent of KOSA differs from the text of KOSA, then the bill should be written correctly before it is voted on, since the bill as it is currently written would lead to an endless debate over the intended meaning of its poor phrasing years after its prescribed censorship takes effect.
I'm not sure how useful this app is. Scanning the comments down-thread, the people preaching mindfulness seem to struggle to practice it. I thought the whole point was to help a person be self-aware, but I see resentment and rage bubbling up unfiltered.

There is no feature Twitter/X could bring to chat that would take users away from WhatsApp. It already covers 100% of it's users needs, is free, and has near complete market penetration in many regions. (If you are talking to anyone in Europe by text, you will always use WhatsApp)
That's a really interesting POV and I totally get where you are coming from.

It just never happened to me, I picked my jobs myself, bootstrapped my companies without promoting it in a inner circle.

In fact most people I know got their job by just applying for it or recruiting companies.

I wonder where I would be at if I had networking skills, when my coding skills already brought me everywhere I wanted to be.

Maybe it's cultural, maybe it's just my social circle.
You would be surprised. It takes several years for the low emissions of an EV to compensate the increased emissions during fabrication compared to ICEs (and disposal: ICEs are mostly steel and plastic, with fewer fancy chemicals as batteries). Teslas, being large and heavy, also use way more energy than they should to move around 100 kgs of human. Energy that is not free of GHG emissions.

EVs are mostly good over the long term, but they are not an instant win button.
The key word was ‘historically’, when relating to the likes of James or Bloody Mary. Lots of people feel deeply connected to their history and struggle, why should Northern Protestants be deprived of theirs?

The Pope had something more powerful than divisions: words and authority over his flock. Back in the day that commanded more loyalty than to monarch.

But in recent times, the source of the violence was the IRA and other Republican groups.
