This person appears to have leaned heavily on LLM generation in everything from their comment here, the readme, to even their github profile page. I haven’t reviewed the code.

The codebase and website consist of a handful of commits made over the prior three weekends.

There is no differentiation from the existing library of note-taking apps.

By any measure this is not a thing worthy of attention, and yet here it is. Why?

edit: At least one answer occurs to me: we have lowered the bar to app creation so far that a person can now create and market an app faster than they can evaluate and understand the existing options.

We are a website away from Let Me Google That For You evolving into LM Develop TFY.
For me it's just part of the language of cinema, like a dolly zoom or a oner or slow-mo.

I can notice those things, particularly when they fit the scene well, and still appreciate them as a part of cinema on one hand, but still maintain my investment in the narrative on the other.

Like when my heartstrings are being pulled. If it's done well enough, it doesn't matter if you realise in the moment that it's something the filmmakers are doing deliberately; you still feel the emotion. I can appreciate the craft at the same time as being invested in the story. I enjoy appreciating a film on multiple levels at the same time.

To be sure, Wilhelm is more of a "heh, nice" moment than a "wow, what incredible craftsmanship" realisation. And, to my knowledge, it's never used inappropriately, e.g. in a historical tragic war scene. If it showed up in, say, Saving Private Ryan or 1917, I probably would be annoyed in a way that I'm not if it showed up in an MCU or John Wick installment.
New Open Source solution in React to create control panel quickly
Hi! We, as an outsourced company, have released an open source solution in React for developers that allows you to quickly create a beautiful control panel in the project and CRUD in it, but if you want you can make completely custom interfaces as well.

For whom:
- For those who need to frequently create a control panel in projects
- Those who want custom solutions, but don't want to use box solutions, but don't have money/time to develop them from scratch.
- Those who don't have time to deal with existing solutions, which require a lot of time and effort to study

If you're already interested, check out the link https://github.com/dev-family/admiral
If you still don't understand anything, read the text below.

The features:
Out-of-the-box React components used.
It doesn't matter what the back-end is written on, only the REST API is needed from it.
It is written in TypeScript and has built-in typing.
Adaptive design: The library interface scales to any screen size. This is convenient when used on mobile devices.
Localization: we support different languages.
An interface that is intuitively easy to work with.
Different design themes: you can change the color scheme of the interface to suit your needs.
If you liked it, we'd love a star on GitHub and a recommendation to those who have similar pains. I'd be happy to get feedback.

Smart door handle entrepreneurs mouths start to water at the thought of a subscription fee like this
Coming? This seems like it happened already in every place I've visited. We don't even have public libraries here in Puerto Rico, but in SF, Seattle, etc. they are largely...not targeted at people looking to read/borrow books.

I'd be interested in what libraries are like in Japan since their first sale copyright doctrine is totally different from the US and most of the rest of the world.
The more people study the matter, the less of a boundary between `body` and `consciousness` exists. Our body, and all the pesky juices/hormones produced by it, and the stuff produced by bacteria in our digestive tract have direct impacts on what our mind perceives. Restoring circulation is insufficient.
Over his donation to a (very) popular political campaign in California.

Recall that Obama was elected in the same year as Eich's donation on a platform that marriage is defined to be between a man and a woman, and that the proposition in question passed with 52% support in California, one of the most socially liberal states in the USA.

Analysis hasn’t included international students (read small letters), so you can’t conclude that, although plausible.
A fundamental problem of using simple text editors for note taking is you can't easily click-jump from one note to another. If only TextEditor, Notepad, GEdit etc could make clickable hyperlinks whenever they encounter a string which is a name of a file existing in the same directory - then yes, they would be enough. And people who want a graph could just have it as a separate simple app in that case.
"Open" is a great marketing term to signify to geeks that you're hip to the whole movement thing, and "Wall" of course is a classic Cybersecurity term that is an instantly recognizable part of "firewall", but when you make a portmanteau into "OpenWall" and a big gaping security hole is revealed, surely the irony is not lost on us.
Well, widespread public libraries mostly exist in the US because of private entities like the Carnegie Library, so I don’t think it’s really that simple. Prior to Carnegie, most libraries were subscription based.
Hackernews is also play money
Heavily disagree. I own the server, thus the website. I should be able to allow or disallow any type of web crawler/scraper i want. Similar to how you cant easily regulate whats in a website without lawsuits and takedowns, you cant regulate how discoverable a website is.

I would look into JLCPCB's PCBA service. (PCBWay and others also offer similar.)

Assuming you're not trying to do multiple spins of the same project per week and your parts are relatively common, outsourcing this to them seems entirely doable. (I only use them for hobby projects where I'm under no deadline at all, but with DHL I can get about one cycle per week.) If you're editing the PCB between revs, you're already paying almost all of that latency already.

If you can skip the "soldering by hand takes hours" step, you can get back a lot of time as you know; that might be enough to pay for the once-per-week cycle. This also gives you a very clear and fast path to go from "I had 1 unit that worked on my bench last week" to "I have 20 test units ready now" to "I can have 1000 for the Kickstarter in a month."

Last time I used their PCBA service, they had a terrible treatment of connectors, meaning I had to hand-solder those still. I understand that's improved, but not ordered in over a year.

Philips is a big player making the assumption that the next generation of MRI will be smaller, cheaper, and more widely available. But, I can confirm smaller players are operating on that assumption as well.
Funny enough Bardeen went on to work out the theory of conventional superconductivity later (with two other researchers) and got another Nobel prize out of it. What's your issue with Shockley btw?
Come on man, why do people say this? Do you actually think this? I understand there might be some disagreements or edge cases but it's really pretty close to objective
Nope - fundamentally different. First, multispectral imaging is a mapping of information into a form that can be easily seen and interpreted. It is not the wholesale synthesis of new information. The goal is to reveal the true structure to the eye based on actual measurements of the object. Second scientific imaging and social imaging have fundamentally different functions in terms of what they reveal about the world. The color of cloth has different meanings than the color of a distant nebula.
The more-formal, older name for it is "mondegreen":

Superhero films don't have to be sexless, even if kid-friendly. The dating scene between Lois and Clark in Superman (1978) (PG) contains more sexual energy and tension than many scenes in modern streamer series where the sex is shown on-screen in a manner explicit enough to have been considered softcore porn in the 80s and 90s. You can see the desire in Lois's eyes as she thirsts up Superman, and under that gaze Clark becomes nervous and off his game even in his more confident Superman persona. He fancies Lois enough to test her desire (by appearing to her as both Superman and Clark in the same night) and to become tempted to reveal his identity to her. Lois gets way more ribald ("what color underwear am I wearing?") than a late 1970s career woman would with a stranger, especially one she's interviewing for her job. She literally can't help herself.

The whole scene hits way, way different as an adult than when I first saw it as a kid. And nobody even gets undressed.
This kind of public interest and demonstrations is unique only to RTS and few other phenomena

- ordinary ppl more or less understand the importance of RTS

- a visible and understandable effect (Meissner) can be shown on successful replication

- the materials required are easier to understand, but the synthesis procedure is tricky, and purity is important

- The skills of chemists comes into play, leading to kind of a Breaking Bad feel
Exactly, that Russian anime girl shud not be getting any credit, I don’t say this because of her anonymity but because of her absolute refusal to take a video or do absolutely anything that can make outsiders trust her claims.
What kind of workloads require a lot of NAT gateway usage?

I think my team's use is kind of high, with 16 TB going through NAT last month. The bill for that came to ~1300, which is higher than I'd like, but that's only about 1.5% of our AWS spend. Tbh I never really looked at the spend for NAT before, but this doesn't alarm me.
Linode was too slow and had outages in my experience. Used them for years.

Replaced them with lightsail and don’t have any of those problems, plus I can pick FreeBSD.
Realistically the only components that are likely to fail though are the capacitors, which are trivially replaced.

While other parts CAN fail it’s physical damage that’s much more likely a problem
Yes, I thought similar things. Libraries stopped being great for readers a decade+ ago. I think it’s less from nefarious corporate actors and more from the fact that reading culture has either shifted to more advanced platforms or evaporated entirely.
Carwow is in the UK and tests the claims against the European WLTP test. The claim is that Tesla doesn't meet their EPA range ratings.

This is a joke, but it's also an important factor: actors and actresses can now push back against being made to film these scenes in ways that range from "uncomfortable" to "actual sexual assault". So there are fewer such scenes, because it's more expensive and requires more planning than just "bully lead actress until she takes her top off".
perhaps among some (never heard this before), but I know people who used Amigas and Deluxe Paint.
In another thread such a measurement has been discussed.

Unfortunately such measurements are not enough for definitive conclusions, because all that they can show is that below some temperature the resistance becomes smaller than the error of the measuring equipment.

Moreover, because the samples obtained so far are extremely inhomogeneous, they do not show a definite transition temperature, which would have made superconductivity much more plausible.

In any case, the results obtained so far are enough for showing that it is worthwhile to invest time and money for developing a method of producing samples that are larger and more pure, because whatever they are, they must have unusual properties.

The best would be to develop a method for making monocrystals, because this material has an asymmetric crystal structure, which might have very anisotropic properties.

The most interesting properties of semiconductors could not be discovered during the first century after their discovery by Faraday, because they were not available as pure monocrystals. Only after the methods for growing pure crystals have been developed during WW2 (for radar diodes), it became possible to measure the intrinsic properties of the semiconductors and to design new devices using them, and then the semiconductor industry has grown exponentially.

With this kind of non-metallic superconductor, the problems may be similar.

I still remember when Chrome introduced this "downloads bar" at the bottom of the screen. It seemed like a terrible idea, yet Firefox went ahead and copied it (to which there were lots of complaints, as expected).

Many years later, they're finally recognising that it's a terrible UI and have finally dropped it. It's ironic to see that they've copied Firefox's bar this time. How the tides change.
Which you need to run this project.

I get why it’s expensive, but that doesn’t mean it’s not expensive.
matinee is certainly more quiet, usually an old crowd
Yeah, I'd understand not caring. That's a pretty common and reasonable take, though I'd hope a tech website like this would be more pro-privacy.

But actively caring about browser companies, and choosing Chrome because Mozilla "sold out" when they added pocket is a pretty wild take imo.
Wow, "attention vampire" nails it. I am acutely aware of my limited attention, but I've never been able to articulate my problem with some UI/UX so succinctly.

My other UI pet peeve/antipattern is the ever-decreasing information density (and increasing padding). I have trouble with working memory, so I need more stuff on the screen, not less!
Out of curiosity, if you dont want to be 'tied to the larger players', why not use metasearch engines like SearX? If Google does not have a great answer, Bing does, or Mojeek.
You can't have it all – a reality check for hiring
Agreed. I stopped using Steam and their games on Mac when all the games I had purchased stopped working. That was the end of any Mac gaming for me.

I didn't have a Windows machine so I stopped using Steam completely for a few years until the Deck came out.
> Wearables, ultimately, are an expiremental product.

Undercover cops love tech, the apple airpods are a classic example, they are excellent for recording conversations, so when you get a stranger wearing a pair, or meta raybans, or even a mobile phone in hand engaging you in conversation, they are phishing for self incrimination.

So can you really say, they are experimental? Seems like they are being put to good/bad use.
This article discusses use of the PHP do while loop with examples, how it differs from other loop types, and how it is used.

Similar to the while loop, a do-while loop executes code at least once, regardless of whether the condition is true or false.

It is useful when you need to run at least once a particular block of code, such as when validating user input or initializing a loop counter.

Things will have to get worse, so folks will see direct impact on their lives, not just some reports in news. That's crossing the line even dimmer part of population will react to, since it will be sort of survival instinct. Probably not valid for Alaska.

But yeah we 'lost' in past few years non-trivial part of population and the correction is nowhere in sight. Discussion doesn't seem to be possible, facts on one side and bad emotions on the other are missing each other pretty badly.
"But according to a February corporate document WSJ says it saw, under 10 percent of Ray-Ban Stories ever purchased are in active use."

Men have preferred non-promiscuous women since the dawn of man, in the same manner women have prefered tall men. Why are men creepy and women not?

Also why can't men prefer younger women in the manner that younger women tend to prefer older established men?

That's an American complaint about an American problem. Basic healthcare in the rest of the developed world functions ok, unlike the US.

And why the US created that setup (between the 1960s-80s) is a political discussion.

We're straying from the general premise here about about abolishing any legal limits on pharmaceuticals. Or else, we're changing the topic to an argument-from-consequences based on the idiosyncrasies of US healthcare and its costs.
Oh absolutely: I fully support the project existing & data archival as well.

Just… ouch on the cost of running it. Limits the effective impact somewhat.
I think you are conflating different authorities and special interests into one monolith. Corporations want you to consume. Pro-business libertarians want you to consume. Environmentalists want you to draw down consumption. Authoritarians of every stripe want to tell you how to live your life and control your behavior to match their worldview.

The science says that our economic system is at total odds with our biosphere and that our exponential consumption growth will come to an end. At that point, we will be forced into a new economic system. It’s an inevitability. People’s opinions and ideology can only defy reality for so long.
Yep. Greenpeace is one of the major reasons we're in this mess to begin with, with their extremely successful anti-nuclear campaigns.
NATO doesn't need to do that kind of thing now. Ukraine is already fighting (and partially winning) a war against Russia that NATO is freely and openly supporting. There's no advantage in escalating these kinds of skirmishes when NATO can just shrug and then turn around and hand Ukraine bigger and badder guns and say "go at it, boys" instead, and avoid direct confrontation (which Putin doesn't want, either).

Of course, there _is_ a line, and Russia will probe to see where that is, but they won't cross it.

It's yet another reason why NATO is so firmly bound to supporting Ukraine. Before the opening of direct hostilities there, Russia engaged in all sorts of shit in the west with no consequences. Cyber attacks and surveillance stuff, but actually doing things like brazenly poisoning people on NATO soil and in the process killing UK civilians. Or shooting down civilian airliners. And never paying any consequence because we were afraid of war.

Well, now there's a war, but we don't have to be directly involved with the threat of nukes and cruise missiles hitting our cities...

The one place where I do see risk of the line being crossed is in the Black Sea. I'm disappointed that Turkey and NATO have not taken a firmer line. I hope/expect to see a stronger response to events like what happened in the port on the Danube a couple days ago.

It makes no sense for Russia to be allowed to control the waters outside of its territory on a sea where the coastline is filled with NATO countries.

If there is a serious flare up, it will be there, and naval.
Government: Working for a national lab is very similar to working for a research college without the coursework. There are frequent (as in weekly) technical lectures across a vast array of areas. Lots of work for someone with math+applications interests. Including work for NASA, LHC, astronomy, etc. You can literally walk up and talk to them after the lecture ie if you think there’s a collaboration possible it’s possible.

Similar is probably true at contractors like Lockheed Martin, etc.

In my experience, the trouble can be in picking places that won't see you as too qualified/"why would you work here?"

Maybe project management or stuff in logistics might be complicated enough to interest you.

Pick up some IT background with stuff like containers, linux, etc. Usual stuff to aim for to get into the big techs. I'm hoping Microsoft, apple, etc still have filesystems devs.

Make some expository type videos ala the famous YTers. This ca/should mirror your current academic work.

What he's saying is that women are generally at their hottest and get the most attention from 18-30. They have the position of power in attracting a mate. If they have 20+ partners they clearly took advantage of that.

If you're a 40yr old man who has worked his ass off to reach a position where you are an attractive mate, you probably now have the position of power instead of a women of the same age.

The usually unsaid part of this is that the woman in question wouldn't have given you the time of day when you were in your 20s. It's only when you are in the position of power they start to consider you as an option, at which point it makes less sense for you to consider them an option.

That is why this feels like a slap in the face for a man, and also why men go after younger women. When they were a young man, they had no power. When they get older, they have more power.
That is the thing, he only manages that thanks to the in house tech support, he would be lost without it.
I think it is slightly more complicated than this. Removing these "artificial" locks raises the price of the base model. This can lead to people on a tighter budget from being able to afford it at all.

For this particular instance I don't feel too bad for a number of reasons:

1. Tesla is a luxury product so people on a tight budget will likely find a better value solution elsewhere.

2. The way these locks are implemented greatly restricts user freedom on the whole car so they see somewhat unethical to me.

But in general I believe that making one model and artificially locking it can be ethical. It is just taking advantage of economy of scale (by only making one model) without removing your base price point.
Obviously when we talk about the number of sexual partners we mean in regards to the woman's age. It's not the same having had 10 partners at age 40 than at age 20.

I talk about women because I'm a man! Women also select men in other ways. Nothing wrong about it. Men and women are different and we have different things that makes us tick.
