> Also, it's not the voltage that kills you, it's the amperage.

A bit off-topic but I never liked that saying, it is kind-of-right but also soo wrong in so many levels. Amperage is not a thing that happens on its own, it is always a result of voltage, voltage is the driving force, so it is the voltage that actively kills you, by forcing amperage through your internals. When the killing happens the voltage is the real murderer, the amperage is just the murder weapon.
When you eliminate the things that kill you slowly, what remains are the things that kill you quickly. Perhaps in the future, almost everyone who dies will do so in under 5 minutes. That sounds great for the dying person, but maybe scary for family, friends, and coworkers? Interesting to consider.
I agree, except for the prison time part: NYC’s prisons are more or less torture sites[1], and we really don’t need to send more people to be tortured.

Driving a car is a privilege that can and should be rescinded, especially in a city where so many alternatives exist.

Always been fascinated with this type of development. I come from the era where JS was typically frowned upon, later learned to like it during ES6 because I had to use it a lot but now I mostly use it for Node and not the frontend anyways.
Yes, they are definitely not primitive, but considering how the breakthrough in LLMs happened, i.e MSFT, GOOGL were working on it, even as late as 2021, Google's BERT was not really there (at least the one they showed the public in the blog from Google research). So the sudden jump from ok to great thanks to openAI would probably mean a lot of existing systems also need to do that.
Consider that you only went to 99%, and this comment is the final 1%. (Or maybe it's the next one, or the next..)
>>> For America to regain its social mobility, its top universities need to follow the data and stop practicing the kind of elitist discrimination that much of Europe has abandoned.

This is the only part I can read before the paywall kicks in. But I wonder why they think that top universities are the drivers of social mobility.
Having been bitten in the past, i'm always terrified that tools like this contain malware.
While I do love me some Lisp, I don't think it's a categorical requirement to get an emacs-like experience. Lua is a very nice language, very dynamic, built around a few powerful primitives, that it should be possible to get something equally useful eventually. It just would be an insane amount of work. GNU Emacs has been going for nearly 40 years now, with lots and lots of contributors over time. Simply building something that is equivalent in terms of features would take forever; and I think the zile people have much less brainshare than Emacs.

So I think it should be possible theoretically, but in practice, it's a lost cause. Guile Emacs would have been cool because it could have kept on using the tons and tons of elisp code that exist now, but apparently the pressure to get that to work was not large enough to warrant the effort. And with emacs now supporting native compilation of elisp, it's likely to stay the gold standard for the foreseeable future.
Eh, depends on "easier".

For day-to-day tasks as a technical user I use a Mac but wouldn't find it to be an issue to use linux for most of my work.

However, my strictly-gaming PC runs Windows. It's by-far the easiest, least-effort, and overwhelmingly the most supported choice. I'm not wanting to put on the sysadmin hat when wanting to decompress after work.
Thanks. I do use Firebase Auth and I see a lot of SMS authentication requests from Pakistan, Ecuador, and Romania, but I don't think those are legitimate users authenticating based on previous usage.
Weather is more than temperature (e.g. headaches correlating to bariometric changes are well known), and in general I would refrain from "people..." statements based one your personal n=1 sample study :/ There is also a large spectrum between sick and dead, you know?
Individuals differ a lot, just be happy if not affected and all is fine for you :)

>You can style a lot of these native elements. And where you cannot, I'd argue that's actually good. I've worked with designers who insisted that everything looked and feeled the way they had designed it. But I've also worked with designers who, when showed how the date-picker looked on IOS, OSX and even Gnome, were incredibly happy that finally there was design that just followed what the users were used to.

The native browser date picker is very limited. You can't do basic things like disable weekends or select a range making it unsuitable for a wide swath of usecases.

>Point being: it will vary. But I'm certain we need all these JS UI-frameworks like MUI far less than we use them. I'm certain plain-old HTML, CSS and a little JS suffices far more often than it's currently used.

These UI frameworks are just plain-old HTML, CSS, and a little JS. All conveniently built for you to easy build a site that looks pretty good and covers most UX needs.

>This anecdote was a "pixel perfect" HTML version of some figma design. I did some CSS tricks to style the `<details>` and was lucky the designer was lazy and never specified the styles of all the dialogs around date/time pickers (they weren't that important anyway).

If you had used MUI you wouldn't have had to do CSS tricks and if it's using a small fraction of MUI then treeshaking will result in a negligible amount of JS/CSS sent over the wire. So no real performance gain, harder for the next engineer, and no great path forward if the UI needs to be snazzier. It's just worse all around than picking one of the well known frameworks.
Oh, I am well aware but that doesn't mean it still scares me a lot and I'd hope I didn't have to eventually.

If it is really an emergency you should have already called 911. Maybe the dispatcher says drive as fast as you can cause we cannot get an ambulance to you - but in that case you stay on the phone. The dispatcher talking to you is also on radio with police and the flashing lights are your escort as the dispatcher will tell you.

But the above is something that I doubt will actually happen - ambulances are generally close.

I think in the case of “to lose one’s temper”, there isn’t an obvious match between the technology of the day and the early medical theory of four humours, not of metal-working.

Origin of Temper, New Oxford American Dictionary:

Old English temprian 'bring something into the required condition by mixing it with something else', from Latin temperare 'mingle, restrain'.
Sense development was probably influenced by Old French temper 'to temper, moderate'.

The noun originally denoted a proportionate mixture of elements or qualities, also the combination of the four bodily humours, believed in medieval times to be the basis of temperament, hence temper (sense 1 of the noun) (late Middle English). Compare with temperament.

You are probably right, the planet is getting wild and traffic happens all the time.
For a summer I dated a girl whose dad sold rugs in parking lots. If you lived in New England at that time you know the guys I'm talking about. There were a bunch of them, who all bought rugs from the same supplier and set up large displays.

The girl's dad set us up with our own rug display in a parking lot somewhere like an hour away. Every Friday he'd drive us out there and leave us until Sunday. We would set up the display in the morning, work all day and break down the display at night. We slept in the truck on top of the rolled up rugs.

I think that was one of the best summers of my life. In between customers I'd play my guitar. The money was great to an 18 year old, and only required 2 days of work. I'm very social and liked selling. And on top of it all, I got to spend all that time with someone I was crazy about.
That would require accepting that the complexity merchants sold them a lie.
There's something beautifully ironic about "not construction" --> "concrete example"
Any kind of life extension breakthrough is going to introduce heaps of problems in how our society functions. It is fundamentally not designed to cope with people not retiring and dying.

Plus, if we've not figured out how to live away from this planet in perpetuity around the same time, we're going to quickly run out of space too.

A lot of these types of people are fine driving without licenses, but if they’re without a car and no one will loan them one, that might work.
One manufacturer released a report of horn usage time in various countries. If its already integrated into the electronics, it should play back the same sound into cabin if its overused, also stopping music and AC. Yes I hate carmakers heaping features, but horn use of fellow Indians are infuriating.
Reminds me of something similar I went through on my first job fresh out of school. Maybe not as exciting as uncovering secrets in a 1.5TB source code vault, but we had these locked down workstations with nothing but a browser, Office and some vendor specific tools you could install from a software catalog. Nothing useful like an IDE or SDK and every other binary downloaded that was not approved would not run. Imagine my reaction when I found that one of the vendor tools included a Python runtime (albeit an old one like 1.6 or so). Which allowed me to script against the Exchange's server IMAP and automate my morning tasks of sifting through hundreds of monitoring emails from hours to minutes. Saving precious time I could invest in further developing the tool to include a full web interface and all sorts of nonsense.
Maybe they have courtesy cards from the police.

If they have that much disregard for the law, do you think losing their license will keep them off the road? Doubtful.
Another post about this same thing was flagged yesterday. There are zero sources cited in this fluff piece, and there are no major developments released yet in the Phase I trial that is currently underway. In other words, this is just like all of the other failed "cancer pill/cure" articles you've read over the past 4 decades. Just stop posting about it until the trial results are available and we have actual evidence that it helps real patients (or, more likely, not).

Unfortunately very much not the case.

There are still a lot of issues playing games outside of Steam, and not every game is available in steam.

As someone else said there are some issues with anticheat (but some do work).

It is also not unheard of for a game to have an update and it break the proton compatibility. Meaning anyone who wants to play the game has to wait for proton to update with a fix.

But also, not every game on Steam works either.

Huh, never thought about that one before.

Linguistic stuff like this is fun to find; these days I mostly spot it via learning German as a second language, so the artifice in artificial intelligence becomes “Künstliches Intelligenz” where “Kunst” is artist and “Kunststoff” is plastic, and in Middle Low German “kunst” is knowledge and ability.

There's no way to avoid that except training your own model. It will, likely, always be possible to jailbreak chatbots, or just steer the conversation off course. That's why you must never give them direct access to anything.

People are so used to seeing images that it's impossible to recognize that they're an _illusion_. If you see a drawing of an apple, it is colored pigment on a page, it's not an apple, but it's _impossible_ to look at it and not see an apple.

_Why_ do we recognize it as an apple? It's certainly not an exact duplicate of the light rays that would enter your eye from a real apple. How different can it be from an apple and still be recognizable? What exactly is the mechanism by which it triggers the recognition?

Calling an image a "representation" or saying that it "has a liking" to the real thing is sort of begging the question. The question to be answered is: "In what way is it a representation? And how does it have a liking to the thing represented"?
Not a huge fan of this.

The really dangerous drivers in New York aren't dangerous because they're speeding.

They're really dangerous because they weave in and out of tightly packed traffic trying to find a minuscule gap to wedge themselves into to try and go around everybody.

If anything, being unable to go fast is going to psychologically compel impatient people to take even more risks to make up for time they'll be perceiving themselves as losing due to being limited in speed. Additionally, limiting their car's speed is going to make this process even more dangerous for bystanders because they're not going to have the power available to actually perform these maneuvers.

If you want to focus on public safety, figure out a way to get slow-pokes out of the passing lane who camp there next to a truck for an hour and clump up traffic, and get cops to focus on drivers who wildly weave from lane to lane with no signals.
Another ARPES person! Totally agree with you, not only the density of states but the flatness of the d band at the Fermi level is extremely encouraging.

It has been peer reviewed - lots of scientists reviewed the paper, found various problems, some are trying to replicate it with varying success so far, some are looking for theoretical explanation.

I remember that in recent summers we had news items like this one [1], with temperatures in Paris reaching 36 degrees Celsius on August 3, 2022, 39 degrees on August 7, 2020 [2], and 42.6 degrees on July 26, 2019 [3].

But it looks like absence of news (no heat-wave for Paris this summer just yet, unlike in 3 of the previous 4 years) is not news anymore.

Hi, I'm Nat. I've previously worked as a marketing and visual designer for Fast and several other startups in Silicon Valley. Recently, I decided to establish an affordable design subscription service for those who need professional design work but aren't yet ready to hire a full-time designer. With a monthly subscription, I commit to focusing on creating stunning designs that elevate your product. No fuss, just great design.
that's a start but you might need to impound their money too if they keep using it to buy replacements
>The BIG difference is that DX12, Metal, LibGNM(X) and NVN come with productive SDKs, documentation, IDE tooling, frameworks, in a big support package.

well of course. they are closed off (in both source and general tribal knowledge. Hell, the docs for GNM/NVN aren't available without a license), locked down to one platform each, and their customer base is overwhelmingly enterprise. And each has a dedicated full time team to consult with. It's no surprise they can give more focused suites when their job is more or less to wrap you into their respective ecosystem.

If you are fine focusing on one platform, or relying on a huge library/framework/engine to abstract all these APIs for you (which remember, you need to provide some license for, except DX12. So another barrier), you can get a bit more convenience. But if you can't use those and/or want to target Linux/Android, you lose some of that for a more flexible, agnostic API (and probably some small performance hitches on the highest end. Vulkan can't assume 2-3 configurations like Gnm/NVN after all).

>if it wasn't for Apple endorsing GL ES on the iPhone, no one would have cared.

Well, Apple at the time basically made people care about mobile graphics at all, so you are technically right. But they could have raised Glide from the dead and made that matter for all the early control they had.

Apple certainly does have a rich history with OpenGL, but we all know how that eventually ended up. It was a long time coming but the breakup was much more spontaneous than I ever would have guessed. Definitely seems to be more than technical shortcomings behind that story.
