As someone who built a split ergonomic keyboard and ended up changing layouts anyway, I don't think you can buy your way out of learning something new. I still had issues on an ergo split keyboard even with dvorak, had to switch to workman to really make the discomfort go away.
Especially so a utilities provider such as gas.
Did you include Apollo 1? It killed 3 without even getting off the ground.
How many black people in a row would it take?
Please read my post again, especially the last part...
Thanks for writing down exactly how I have felt recently.

Engineering requires creativity when the implementation isn’t assured, and creativity requires energy.

The work environment can be like asking people to brainstorm after reading terms and conditions for an hour.

I think you might benefit from reframing who you produce work for, if you feel it’s for a client or the daily process monster, you’re quickly staring at the blank screen again. If you frame it as getting better at work, or another internally goal, you might find you have more creative energy.
Or that for some reason zooming in works differently in the search screen. Instead of zooming where I'm pinching it just always zooms in the middle.
As in zram and/or tmpfs on Linux? More than half the mounts on the first of my RPis that I just looked at are tmpfs, eg for /run.
A human reads a website, watches/clicks on ad, buys merch, subscribes to website, sets a bookmark to a website, shares an article, invites others etc.

What will be the point of sharing knowledge or content if it will no longer be associated to an individual or organization?
Who Is Oppenheimer? J. Robert Oppenheimer Retrospective
I’m not sure if we should conclude much from this study alone. If you look at the scatter plot, it seems there’s basically no correlation if you discard three of the samples.

The last sentence of the conclusion is the most important. It could be worth doing a bigger study to see if more vaccine doses at an early age unintentionally increases mortality.
> “The enthusiasm around it reminds me of JavaScript framework wars of 10 years ago”

Hmm. If LLMs turned out like JS frameworks, that would mean that in ten years people will be saying:

“Maybe we don’t really need all this expensive ceremony, honestly this could be done with vanilla if/else heuristics…?”
So, for a smart home where some parts are actually, well "hidden" in the building you find if feasible to just upgrade?

I mean, how much could a house cost, right?

Stuff like this should be forbidden. Non-experts simply cannot fathom the consequences of their decisions.

Nobody would expect parts of their house need complete replacement after just 7 years (if they were in good condition in the first place and there was no catastrophe)

This is not even talking about e-waste and the environmental issues that arise from more high tech garbage
Interesting point though I'd go with another analogy.

You can go to a library to borrow a book, but you can't go to the library and copy all the books for your own use.
Also, Portuguese for boat.
Lucky they're not the ones accepting patches. If upstream adopts it they'd have to disable support in their build, which seems unlikely.

I wouldn't read WONTFIX like that for anything downstream (i.e. a distribution bug tracker for projects they package). It's we won't do it, not noone else can. WONTFIX only means WONTFIX if that's in the one true source of the project, i.e. upstream.

RH usually have a lot of not-upstream patches though (at least they do for the kernel, grub, and qemu, so I assume the same for libvirt) which complicates things a bit.
My .cache is a ramdisk and several directories on linux are literal ramdisks.
It's possible to break the value into smaller chunks, but not the logic. the function that's responsible for processing the value needs all the chunks. So network wise the issue will remain.
I have some 11 year old Philips LED bulbs that were early on the LED development and crazy expensive; maybe $60 each. These aren’t Hue, but plain recessed type screw-in bulbs. These have worked consistently great with dimmer switches with no strobing, humming or low voltage issues. I can’t find good bulbs like that anymore. Quality and reliability went down as cost went down and competition went up.
I have Hue bulbs in one room, but lag in control of wall switch communicating to adjust lights is terrible compared to direct dimmer control.
If someone tells you “I challenge you to a cage fight”, tell me what timeline you think they have in mind. “I challenge you” and then we wait two years or what? Do you realize this makes no damn sense. Also Musk issued the challenge in June. Not today. Despite Zuckerberg not issuing the challenge, he gave Musk over two months to get his shit together and he clearly can’t.

Here's the letter and more discussion from 2 days ago:

short answer, it does, the molecules still have inertia, the rotational part of the shaking (assuming it's not a perfectly directional shake) will cause some parts of the liquid to have a higher velocity than others, this in effect means they have more movement energy, so they push others with less energy out of the way (while of course equalizing energy along the way), this causes the liquid mass to have vortexes and mix.

If you shaked perfectly along one axis, they'd probably only move a bit, and not really mix, depending on how compression able and uniform the liquid is.

A paint mixer for instance mostly relies on rotational inertia https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bSUbEzxGjAM
We’re not North Korea or anything like that, but we have a pretty terrible legacy with residential schools and the destruction of indigenous people’s families, languages, and cultures, not to mention land.

Canada is also in the midst of the biggest housing affordability crisis we’ve ever had. We’re in 3rd place in the world behind Luxembourg and Portugal for the most unaffordable housing, relative to income.

The U.S. may have some serious affordability issues in the Bay Area, Seattle, and New York, but large swaths of the rest of the country aren’t so bad. Most Canadians are crowded into a few extremely unaffordable cities.
Google allows me to limitlessly search their index that allows me to find other pages too and in turn, they sell my attention so it is somewhat fair proposition in contrast to a wall gardened AI model being charged by per token such as GPT 4 that includes my content as well.
This is total misinformation. UPenn confirmed themselves he holds physics and economics degrees https://www.plainsite.org/documents/tbdmox/2019-email-from-t...

It's just insane how Musk can spur such misinformation campaigns. It reminds me off the whole Obama birth certificate stuff. People are just not thinking right.
Workers aren’t “true threads” they’re isolates. True threads share state. True threads in fact fight over shared state, which is the problem.

Isolates can transfer ownership of data, but the current primitives are just godawful. It’s like someone built a foot trebuchet out guns. I tend to think of myself as pretty damned sharp, especially about concurrency, and I would not trust myself to get that code right. I can’t think of anyone I would, and I used to know some people on the Java Concurrency committee. It’s a non-feature.

So what most people do is messaging, which is pretty un-exotic RPC.
'Any portion' seems very much key (although the final version of the law is apparently even worse). Sites linking (that is, driving free traffic to a news website) often include the time and a one sentence or so (or even just a truncated sentence with ellipsis) so people know what they're clicking on. Sometimes a low-res thumbnail from the meta info.

Obviously this is entirely beneficial for the news source for this to be shown - this bill is like trying to go after people for copyright infringement for showing somebody a movie trailer (since the movie trailer contains "any portion" of the full feature film).
Setting up reverse DNS would be good rather than a dedicated page showing IP subnets.
I agree with the author. It's subtle but it's about signal to noise. A screen full of whitespace has no signal and it's an artificial impediment to the knowledge transfer from screen to brain.

Unfortunately auto-formatting is a better for other reasons so we don't have much wiggle room here but left alone I adopt the authors style
For their defence, keyboards are annotated with uppercase letters.
> Also, where is this data going? The existing ChatGPT says it has nothing past 2021.

To the next ChatGPT
It looks like it will always be a war like Android VS iOS only now it's with AI models.
What’s the incentive for people to allow the crawler at all?

Unlike search engines, chatgpt doesn’t cite references at all (last I tried) or even if it does it often makes up nonexistent references. And because it rephrases the content, there’s often no way to prove they got the material from a particular source, so harder to litigate plagiarism too.

How would contributing to the weights of this LLM help content creators?
Can you not use ChatGPT as well?

I think you'll find if you do try to push Google Search too far, its not quite "limitless" either.
I agree that Google Maps does work as a navigation aid in certain environments (e.g. dense urban) and certain transportation modalities (definitely cars, to a lesser extent public transport, bike and pedestrian).

In my experience it's also useable as a general street/road map. It's clearly not a topographical map; I think it would be foolish and potentially dangerous to rely on Google Maps to, say, hike in the Alps. A standard topographical map would fit that use case much better.

P.S. I don't quite follow some of the complaints on this thread about the UX. For example, I always see the map scale in the bottom-right corner of the app. It is true that street names are not always written onto the map; however, clicking on a street gives me a popup with the name (not the most ergonomic UX, but it's not like the app is trying to hide the info, as some commenters are claiming).
It's not just about total speed, but effort and comfort when you type at all. The person who can type up to 160wpm can very trivially and comfortably peck out the occasional stroke at 80-100wpm as well. Getting to know your keyboard well makes computing more immersive and reduces friction and cognitive overhead.
In my recent trips I have found Google Maps and related reviews much more effective than Tripadvison for discovering and choosing where to eat.
In my experience, any device that requires a custom-form-factor battery is vulnerable to planned obsolescence. If you want to replace your phone's battery 10 years down the road, your OEM won't be making that model anymore; you'll need to find a compatible third-party battery, and of course you know that that means a cut-rate Chinese knockoff that is mislabeled and comes nowhere near the specs of your original.

You could hedge your bets by purchasing a replacement battery soon after purchasing your phone, but batteries have a limited shelf life, and so you'll either need to put that battery into partial service, or it'll just go spicy pillow long before you really need it.
Im gonna jump on that mamoth with a spear- watch me, and if you want steak worship me.
All of these criticisms are very valid, especially the street name one, which is a great example of core functionality being sacrificed to...whatever this is. But then the end:

And as annoyed as I am by all those unwanted pins on my screen, I still often need some of those points of interest, such as popular times, live foot traffic data, reviews, photos, and other useful data that help me plan an outing. It’s nice to know peak wait times for a restaurant and how long customers typically spend there.

Nonsensical. This is smartphone as pacifier for people who can't tolerate any uncertainty or figuring anything out the hard way. It's such a bd excuse I feel like the editor made the writer add it.

"The experts are great until they have a case that is unusual."

Also the very standard cases, they can mess up very badly.

"The system is at the same time incredible and awful."

The science behind the medicine is awesome, but the standard implementation is horrible and not up to at all, where we could be.
None of this is relevant to the topic at hand. You’re like a North Korean news broadcaster reminding us all of Dear Leader’s infinite glory.

You challenge someone to a fight, then talk over two months how it’s happening, it’s definitely happening, in August, it’ll happen, definitely happening, and then back out… because you were not given enough time?! Your economics degree and car company doesn’t change anything of that.
point 1 is sadly wrong and I wish people would stop thinking that fusion doesn't cause radiation damage in all surrounding material.
If the library owned an effectively infinite copies of each book why wouldn’t they let you borrow one copy of each book?
Attempting to get bit-exact reproducible results across different hardware is a fool's errand (if you care in the least about performance).

The nature of the beast is that as soon as you change the order of arithmetic you're going to get a different result. Optimized code is going to give you different results on different hardware due to the fact that you need to optimize things differently. Threading, memory alignment and/or different versions of the library software are likely to lead to different results even on the same machine unless the authors of the library go out of the way to promise repeatability.

(If you want to get the same answer, run on a single thread, page align everything you feed in, and never upgrade your system; alternatively write a scalar loop in C, compile with -O0 and pray the compiler doesn't change the order of things on its next upgrade).
Ask HN: Do we still need SWAP partition?
I used to go to the library, find books with the relevant chapters related to what I wanted to learn, and the librarian would photo copy all the pages I wanted to take home. So I guess technically you could copy all the books for your own use.

It's just impractical to photocopy every page of every book in a library.
Are you just guessing that it's insecure and for some reason that can't be fixed with a software update? Your link doesn't mention that as far as I can see.
I see people occasionally mention shortcuts or vim as reasons they can't switch layouts, but I've done it multiple times and you just learn the new spots, same as typing words with all the letters that moved. It never felt like a showstopper for me.
That makes no sense. Social media drives people to the news site. Google and social media aren't showing all or even large parts of the articles. If the news website fails to monetise those visits then it's their problem...
Integrators and partners usually pay to be part of the game, that is one reason why the whole certification industry exists, and how many certified persons a company must have to be part of the game.
Vivaldi's ad blocker thankfully means I have no idea what you're referring to. Stay tuned though, by next year they'll have ads of your friends eating mustard skittles, whether they do or not.
This is a very thought provoking point and it throughly stimulated me to think deeper and through. Purpose of my website is threefold, document my own knowledge, maybe some vanity and the urge to give back something to "someone" make a better living or similar.

Things get interesting at corporate scale. There are fat VC funds, executives, board of directors and what not - making far more and far more comfortable than an individual trying to get better at their craft to put food on the table. And on top of that, you don't give me access to the product that was refined on my input.

It is like someone learning photography from my website but later taking a really masterpiece shot but asking me for money each time I want to view the photo in their studio.

There are no easy answers, I concur.

Thanks for your comment though, really. :)
We could call it POSIX!
It is extremely difficult to get definition on a black cat no matter what technology you use. For that matter, it is harder to see definition on a black cat with the human eye. Just like it is harder to see definition in the dark. Its called color theory, refraction, absorption. Its also difficult to get depth and definition without reflective distortion on metal jewellery. Are we racist against metallics too?
ATAK or go home
Sometimes that means it’s 3 decades later and your imagine editing app still doesn’t support CMYK.

That may hold water for some of Gen X, but it was still a key part of many of their formative years. Many Millennials literally grew up with it.

To be clear, I'm not saying that boomers aren't smart enough to use technology. It's just that old, comfortable habits are hard to break. Facebook for many of them is a safe, walled garden compared to the wild west internet.
I wrote one article for JavaWorld three lifetimes ago, and had to practically fight with the copy editor who kept rephrasing things until I sounded like an absolute idiot. Jargon is jargon, and I hate using it to sound smart, so unless I’m having an awful day, if I used it or another technical term then I bloody well needed it. Synonyms and metaphors won’t do.

I try to remember that experience, which marks the death of any dreams I might have harbored of ever writing more than an occasional blog and wiki pages, when we start murdering an article.

Mostly it comes out as contempt for the chain of command in editorial staff, which ends up being found out to be the source of the problems far, far too frequently. Who watches the watchers?
Paid for what? If Google and social media sites didn't send people to the news sites for free through links, then the news sites would have to pay for a lot more advertising to get the same visitors...
Sustained 10x usage spikes is ok to plan for, not super expensive. It is something most senior developers are pretty bad at but it is not 10x as hard just experience.
The ox that pulled the cart. So now what?

This kind of measuring jobs by efforts always ends up being won by an animal or machine. Even among humans, the guy digging ditches with his bare hands is putting in more work than the guy using a shovel.

It ends up being a stupid incentive structure, and is not a replacement for supply and demand in the labor market.
And much like software development, it will all soon be done by ChatGPT.
That sounds like an argument against any bot visiting a monetized website.

Some people publish content freely on the Internet as a form of note taking, publicity, public discourse or for the betterment of like minded individuals, akin to why we’re here commenting on HN.

I guess I assume public content defaults into this “for the benefit of the world” category, where it’s up to the publisher to gate content as desired.
Like every time you put content on the internet: you depend on their good will to respect these tags, or robots.txt. OpenAI can decide to ignore it. It's wishful thinking.
A few pictures and video demonstrations are necessary and sufficient to advertise any instrument. Paragraphs of waffle make me suspicious.
I agree with this, especially in the context of the MS Sculpt which GP brought up. I loved that keyboard until it stopped working, but the huge dual space bar was such a waste. They could have easily split each space bar into at least three keys.
Indeed... no way my 56k could have spit those pictures so fast.
This is a boring thought, but it's my boring thought, and I'll post it because I kind of agreed with you until I realized it was kind of me you were kind of railing against.

If you made a list of things that "the other side" truly cares about, it's probably mostly what you care about.

When you strip away what people are currently angry about, people mostly care about things that come down to "am I making the world better for my (possibly putative) children."

It's a reductive view, but I think it's true in a useful way. That is to say, I think it's true for most people in a pairwise fashion, so it's probably true of you, and it's probably a useful way to think about other people you meet, most of the time.

In the context of social media, it is profitable for people to be performative because that drives engagement and engagement is profitable. For this reason, social media is a terrible proxy for other people because is not one to one (pairwise) as above, but one to many. Thus, social media is a massive distortion if you spend time a lot of time on it, or if you spend a lot of time reading the thoughts of people who spend a lot of time on it[1]. I thought of giving exaggerated examples of "the other side" here but I don't even have to draw the pictures, the caricatures literally draw themselves if you think for just a moment. For both sides. Which is kind of what I'm driving at.

Most people are essentially like you though, they just want things to be better. They aren't performance artists gunning for virtue signaling engagement, they just disagree with you about the implementation details. Sometimes these disagreements truly are utter incompatibilities, it's true. But there's an entire industry that now exists in convincing people with the same broad desires that the other side desires only to dash their hopes and dreams. My boring thought is that, broadly, there's a breathtaking overlap between what you want and what the (call them) deplorables on the other side want, and you're mostly just vigorously disagreeing on the cause célèbre you've been told is the keystone to everything this season.

If you focus on the Habsburgs then arguably yes, it did got very bad in that regard. They still managed to find willing painters (even if they possible had to pay them a bit more to soften some of the most visible flaws).

>> Going into physics was the biggest mistake of my life. I should've declared CS. I still wouldn't have any women, but at least I'd be rolling in cash.

Hahaha, gold. I made that realization in the middle of my PhD and switched (40 years ago). Not regretting a moment. What broke me was the amount of politics you must engage in.
Let us have our non-non-nerd whinge about companies that are, legitimately, bad in terms of individual privacy, especially when they're publishing a blog article about protecting privacy.

You're not wrong about the non-nerds, but that's the same about anyone who doesn't possess the knowledge to know better.

If we didn't call it out, it would become normalised even faster. I can't live with that.

Not really sure that this analogy applies, because I could definitely photocopy as many books from the library as I physically can. No one is going to stop me.
Right there with you. I have relatively large hands, and I still prefer playing my 7/8ths-scale electric guitar for the easier reach. It's a noticeably lesser amount of strain on my wrists and joints.
I feel like "He's as smart as my doorbell." is also not exactly a compliment ;)
Local models integrated into EMR systems could be a great tool for doctors but not ChatGPT. I really don't recommend feeding confidential medical information into a corporation's computer. At least doctors are ethically obligated to maintain confidentiality.
It was Google, because Sonos has a patent on playing music synchronously on all your devices in the home.

Note that Google turned it off worldwide, all because the USPTA is a bunch of fucking morons.
For me it's not primarily about speed, it's about reduced finger movement. I switched to a more efficient layout and carpal tunnel dropped off instantly, and that was a very long time ago. If you're doing fine on QWERTY then you don't need to make any changes.
