I've been following Asahi closely because I think the new apple silicon is pretty neat, offering 2x, 4x, and even 8x the memory bandwidth of most x86-64 hardware. In particular the Mac Studio M2 max. I've been quite impressed that Asahi have moved so quickly, in particular the 3d support for OpenGL and progress on Vulkan. Doesn't hurt that apple does pretty good on inference, managing 5 tok/sec on even large 65B models that wouldn't fit on any normal video card.

I'm a long time HN reader and was quite disappointed in HN that an Asahi post had like 90% of the posts that were pretty bigoted, harmful, and targeted more than one of the Asahi team. I watched as this happened. Who cares if someone is gay, straight, bi, or trans? Who cares if a psuedo identify is young, old, male, female, feline, rabbit, or whale?

Weirdly I've not seen that tendency anywhere else on HN, can't recall any similar discussions about any other members of the tech community. Sadly I can see that to Asahi, HN looks like a bunch of bigoted intolerant folks, which hasn't been my experience.

It's the contributions that matter, sad that the discussion didn't reflect that.
Magic123: One Image to High-Quality 3D Object Generation
The more time they spend in a truck, the higher the risk of "transportation sickness," which is basically animals being stressed out from being in a weird truck going down the highway and being more susceptible to a bunch of stuff. Interesting aside, that's part of what made Roosevelt's ranch more successful, he was supposedly one of the first ranchers to stop transporting live cattle to Chicago for sale, and instead slaughtered on-site and made use of the newly invented refrigerated boxcar.

There's money in direct sales, of course, but you have to a) be inspected for general sales and b) use a butcher who is inspected and licensed for i) in-state and ii) out-of-state sales. If you ever buy a "share" of an animal and pay to have it butchered, you may notice the meat comes in packaging with prominent NOT FOR RESALE markings -- that's why, it's a local butcher not USDA licensed for general public sales.

Buying "shares" is a skirt around the law, but most people don't want to deal with the amount of meat from even 1/4 a carcass, and they're usually hard customers for local butchers ("Your butcher is robbing us! They wouldn't give us
T-bones and NY Strip!"). Supposedly if you're found to be doing too much of it, or "automating" it too much for the "shareholders," the USDA will come down on you for it (IMO rightly).

You also then have to market the meat. My wife and I had offered to help set up a canned site to help with it, but my parents were too concerned about the licensing requirements and that it'd be throwing more money into the hole that is subsistence farming!
Hopefully we'll be on the road to the Culture, as described in the books of Ian M Banks. The missing piece will be FTL. Easy-peasy!

This is true, but if I remember correctly, Apple has a very similar issue with user locked devices.

Employees have opened their own "stores", where they remove activation locks, or unlock iphones remotely for a small fee.
Okay and those users can easily use a much cheaper NAT instance instead of managed NAT Gateways.
I'm not really well versed in solar technology, but I found this[1] to maybe explain what this means. It looks like an ~5% overall theoretical efficiency gain might be expected, and if we can achieve the same over 90% of the theoretical maximum we get from silicon processes, that might be ~17% overall efficiency gains over our current silicon processes if some of the best case scenarios line up? (29.4% theoretical max to 34.6%).

Someone that's more knowledgeable about this might completely invalidate my napkin math with actual insight or basic knowledge, so take their opinions over mine, since I'm just lightly scanning random internet info.

In 1996, our school had a break room with 30 DOS-based computers running Pegasus. Each computer would typically have a queue of 3-4 people behind the current user, all eager to check their mail. Most had no internet at home or very limited/expensive access.

Me and some friends were into programming. We would exit Pegasus to return back to the DOS prompt, and then write simple programs that persist in memory, so basically running in the background. Next, we'd reopen Pegasus and left the station.

The next in line would log in to their email and be busy with it for some 5 minutes after which our program would activate. It would draw random pixels on screen, mirror the entire screen vertically, output random tones on the beeper, all kinds of weird stuff to suggest that the machine is possessed.

We'd be hiding behind some column observing it and laughing.

Pretty pathetic, but good times.

No, your comment is still coming across as close-minded and judgemental, and you are likely engaging in sharpshooter's fallacy as well by examining a few cherry-picked examples to support this weird crusade you seem to have against "Linux-fanboys".

Overall, this take feels immature and insensitive to the ideals that drive Linux users.

Damn that is all around a shitty experience. And some serious incompetence.
I have been working on school locked cbooks for a few weeks. We decided to jtag them rather than wait for the unlocks..a. stock Linux rus poorly, and Zorin seems to be the best choice. Alpine is light as a feather.

You cannot access anything ot change anything until you pill the write protect screw. I.e you have no access until you remove this screw. After you remove screw, a $17 jtag kit and a good image... ( First few images where 'cloud free' which I would rather consider it bricked .. ) then you can wipe the drive and start experimenting with Linux, and see just how awful the field is, of simply follow my recommendations. For these dell chrome books, Linux would be Zorin, windows would be win7 Mini, and now I can start with Mac os. I would start with lion or sierra.

In our case, the school district was holding the bag, but also it's a low priority to help hackers vs educating the students for which I would have loved to show the students how to do all those stuff, and the school district would rather not. Be a great education. )

Just so you know, both Zorin and Win7 run git --help. Let's see if I can get MacOS...
> The customer didn't pay for a car with heated seats. The manufacturer included them anyway, but disabled them in software.

Sure they did. Maybe they didn't pay the full price for those heated seats, but they definitely paid more for the car with them (but disabled) than for a car without them entirely.

The carmaker is hoping that people will pay for the unlock in order to recoup their costs. But they're certainly not going to ship those heated seats in every car without inflating the cost of the base vehicle by some amount.

Put another way, it might look like this:

1. Car without heated seats at all: $10,000

2. Car with heated seats, but locked: $10,100

3. Car with heated seats, unlocked: $10,500

If the carmaker offered options 1 & 3, then customers would pay for what they want and get, and nothing more. If carmakers only offer option 2, then even customers who don't ever want heated seats will still pay some premium.

The carmaker might estimate that only 50% of their customers will pay an unlock fee for a car sold to them. They want to still cover their costs and make a tidy profit, so they might charge more than the $400 difference to unlock the feature. And that's if they're doing it in the non-shady way, and are charging a one-time fee. If they decide to charge a subscription, they might do something like charge $100/year for it, and then eventually they're just making pure profit for no added value.

Also consider that the carmaker's own costs could be, on average, greater per car if they have to offer two different options 1 & 3. Offering only option 2 (regardless of whether or not people are able to defeat the software lock) might be cheaper for them. I don't see why we need to subsidize their business decisions.

But all of this is still kinda irrelevant: bottom line is that if you sell piece of hardware to a customer, that hardware now belongs to the customer, and you don't get to tell the customer what they can and can't do with it.
Since a few weeks you get a classic consent screen for various categories of tracking. At least in Norway. You can turn everything off but I think some data is still sent to your phone through the Tesla servers. And I assume it’s not end 2 end encrypted.
The Enumerable APIs, regex handling, low-bullshit functional approach, and great REPL make it a pretty nice scripting language. I've done quite a few Advent of Code puzzles with it, and it always feels like such a nice multitool for chewing up the input files into workable formats.

It's not the first tool I'd reach for, I'm still a filthy bash hacker at heart, but I could definitely see using it for the right problem.

It's also just fun to write, which is valuable in its own way.
Maybe I am misunderstanding but the postgres buffer cache is LRU and will evict pages right? At times data may go to disk and then during serving it will have to be loaded into memory? So it is quite dependent on the size of your buffer cache as well as contention for that buffer cache.

Also the cache access patterns will vary between these implementations and is worth considering.
That's an outlier. Almost every ISP hands out 0 to 1 ipv4 addresses. And even if it's two, the user will quickly realize that "internet is broken" on some of their devices, as two random ones picked up the addresses and the rest don't get any, and reverse the config change.
This is a nice guide.

In my experience, it isn't necessary to configure ChromeOS by logging into a Google account after enabling Developer Mode, if you simply want to ditch ChromeOS and flash the UEFI firmware. Just press ctrl+alt+F2 to get a shell, login as chronos (no password), then type `sudo bash` or `sudo -s` to get a root shell.

In addition to the other recommended distros, NixOS runs well on all my converted ChromeOS devices.

It's a great way to get continued use out of hardware that no longer receives ChromeOS updates. Even underpowered devices can be appealing for some tasks because they're lightweight and fanless.
You're assuming that rooftop solar receives a fixed power price or is able to do net metering. Both of these are subsidies.

Without subsidies, somebody feeding solar from their rooftop into the grid will need to sell the power on the stock exchange, usually through a power broker company that adds them to their portfolio. (In Germany this is called "Direktvermarktung")

This power broker will remotely curtail (turn off) the solar infeed when the spot prices turn negative.

This was expected, and rent seeking.

AWS over the last decade has spent $ billions buying up ASN blocks.

I've never been one to use the word "rent seeking", but owning IPs is the ultimate rent seeking cloud business. Domain names can change registries but if you own the underlining IP being used (and there's a depleting supply of them) - it's a great business to charge rents on.

I've been looking for the last 20 minutes and have found no evidence outside of Conspiracy Wiki.

You have some legitimate truths about the City of London mixed in with a bunch of things that I can find no sources for. I'm not going to engage further with you without sources, I just wanted to flag this (both literally and figuratively) to try to restore some sanity to this discussion.
Indeed. Which is why you should use the built-in parameter expansion provided by bash for easily removing a suffix, instead of an external program.

The thing about spaces (and expansion more generally) as I understand it is this. At some point the bash designers had a choice how to represent expanded, unexpanded, and verbatim strings. One could argue that verbatim should have been the default, with expanded using single quotes, and unexpanded using double quotes, such that you would only get expansion if you really wanted it. This might have been my choice if I had designed it.

I'm guessing, however, that the designers quite reasonable went for the opposite logic, which was, if you use a $ in your string, you're probably after expansion, rather than a verbatim $ symbol (and you can always escape it in the unlikely scenario that you did want a verbatim one). So presumably they chose expanded as the default because it would be the most common, leaving single quotes for verbatim instead.

There is also law in place to refute what you said. Manufacturers can not deny warranty coverage if you jailbreak your phone or hot rod your car, and this is similar. (I believe they have the burden of proof if it seems you did the damage)

It's very frustrating that I cannot specifically exclude certain apps from auto-updates.

Businesses and organizations are holding IPv6 back, not consumers. No one I talk to is prioritizing IPv6 migrations or spending money to upgrade gear that will support it. Maybe some net new stuff might get it, but for most businesses IPv4 is and will be the default, simply because they can't be bothered to do something different.

This is an incredible resource on NAT traversal in practice. I used it as a reference while building a server-assisted p2p-over-TCP[1] system. The post covers UDP but all of the theory applies to TCP as well – you just need some SO_REUSEPORT dual dial/listen magic so the code will look a bit different.

Meta: The post alludes to this, but I think NAT traversal is an inaccurate and confusing term. I like “hole punching” a lot more as a general term. It gets the message across without the myopic connotation that it’s all about NATs – it isn’t.

The Cold Start Problem? I have listened to it on Audible 3 times. It’s on par with Zero to One in terms of an important startup book (imho). Chen goes in to strategies for building the hard side and easy side of a new marketplace. Product strategies for building networks (ex. come for the tool, stay for the network). He gives examples of how to get to a minimum viable network and discusses why Slack spread so fast. I could go on and on. It’s a pretty good on Audible.

> The interface to almost everything either contains or is based on a macro.

This is not true. The endpoint and router are macro based, but once it is routed, it is all functions. Your controller actions are functions, calling the view/template is a function, your channel is functions, the model/context layer are functions.

When it comes to behaviors, we do our best to follow Erlang/OTP conventions, but deviate where it makes sense. For example, channel has “join” instead of “init” because you can refuse a join but you can’t refuse an init. They have different return types and augmenting init could be confusing if later you were to write a plain GenServer.

It is easy to look from outside and say “someone wanted to put their fingerprints on it” but actual discussions were had in pretty much all of these topics. I suggest asking around. If you asked for something and we had no actual arguments, then please point me to such occurrences. I will be eager to clarify (and as a rule we generally do).
