If you watch some of Rick Beato's "What Makes This Song Great" series, you'll learn how meticulously crafted pop songs can be.
A bit old but I can't believe I can't find a post about this on Hackernews. Wistia paid Sandwich Video to make a $1000 ad, a $10000 ad and a $100K ad, and then made a very informative documentary about the whole thing.

I own a small acreage in north GA, which is part of a former timber plantation. About 10 acres are nothing but densely packed southern pine monoculture. My neighbor has another 15 or so acres of pure pine adjacent to it, also rows and rows of the darned things.

Next to it I have another 20 or so of mixed hardwoods and pines. Hickory, oak etc. Native plants.

Nature is slowly but steadily reclaiming _almost_ everything - I see tons of whitetail, plenty of birds of prey, a family of black bears, the occasional flock of turkey, a very healthy population of various bugs, including ecologically sensitive dragonflies, butterflies, etc, and blissfully few wild hogs. There hasn’t been a week where I don’t see anything on the trail cam.

However… those 10 acres grow nothing, and I mean nothing, but southern pines. Unless I have it professionally managed (and hence, harvested), it will probably grow nothing but. I see the financial incentive, but it’s grim. I never spend any time there, whereas spending time in the mixed growth (still pine heavy!) is pleasant - hunting, camping, photography, riding ATVs, hiking (I have maybe a mile of trails, so maybe we’ll call it “walking” :-) ) - all feels natural. I’m not a professional, so maybe it’s not actually natural and healthy, but the amount of animals and plants I see and hear, it certainly feels like it is.

We don’t have bark bettle problems there, and whenever we do, the state and county would very happily help you to get rid of it - these things are the rural equivalent of a “national security” risk. The county foresters are a call away.

I’ve seen the devastation these beetles do in Germany just this year (vacation, but I also grew up there - saw it in the Harz and Sauerland), and it’s _incredible_.

I feel like our pine plantations have it coming if we (American timberland owners, that is) continue like this. But unfortunately, my 30something acres have nothing against the thousand of acres that actual, professional timber companies own. That’s billionaire territory.
I don’t know about how insulting it is, I don’t like rushing things out but we’ve all had to.

People are rushing like crazy to get there first with X for AI all over the place, it would be pretty shocking if there weren’t wires sticking out everywhere.

I don’t think that says anything positive or negative about the hackers involved.
DDG's bang shortcuts are awesome. Quick tip - !wt is a shorter equivalent to !wikt :)
That sounds appealing, but there are so many $10 and $15 monthly warts on my balance that the burden of adding another (with even a minor overcharge fee) feels pretty high. I wish their lower tiers had double the current limits.
Love that it's fully digitized! I was so hoping for a PDF or equivalent I could peruse offline but alas maybe that's a project for this weekend.
Sandy Bridge: Setting Intel’s Modern Foundation
Impact of Covid money printing.
Wages for workers in the Soviet Union declined in the 1920s as well, before the rise of Nazi Germany.

This was due to the Soviet goal of transforming the country from an agrarian society into an industrialized socialist state, which ignored basic economics to devastating effect.

The USSR received a colossal amount of aid from the US during WW2 through Lend-Lease, and following the war, carted off significant amounts of physical and human capital from Eastern Europe, especially East Germany.

And despite all of this, by the 1980s it was clear that the USSR's command and control economy could not keep up with the West's liberal economy, especially as emerging industries like semiconductors were too complex to manage without markets.
That's why Kagi's personalization is so cool here. Kagi doesn't have to block it, and neither does the user. The user can just lower it, and raise MDN, because that's what they want in their search, and it helps them more.
Even much earlier in Goodreads, I could already feel social pressure.

For example, back then, the great woman I'd recently started dating tried to get me to join Goodreads. But I avoided it, specifically because she seemed to think I was smarter than I was, and I didn't want to disillusion her with my post-Web abysmal literary activity.

Now it sounds like Goodreads social pressure is being leveraged by a megacorp, both to promote product consumption, and to sell the attention of its users.

It was very unclear whether software source code could be copyrighted until CONTU recommendations were written into law in the 1970s. This is a major reason why IBM established software licensing for some of the System/360 software.
The fact that there are (formerly) "secret agreement[s] with governments to ensure that the output of those printers is forensically traceable" in the form of the Machine Identification Code[0] suggests that it could potentially be difficult for an open-source 2D printer to gain traction.

> there's still concerns about their relationship to reporting science

Can you provide any credible examples of concerns regarding their reporting on science topics?
You are not meant to bottom out on mechanical switches, you press them until the switch actuates and then stop pressing. The advantage is that if you keep pressing a little bit after it actuates, you don't hit a hard wall. The travel distance is not that much and different switches have different resistance.

Unlike the chiclet keys, where they trigger at the bottom, so you are always bottoming out and pushing against a "wall".

Everyone has different problems though. I have no problems from hurting my fingers when typing, or carpel tunnel. But I do have messed up shoulders, and having them internally rotated all day is my biggest issue.

The biggest relief for me was a fully split keyboard so that I can have my shoulders neutral rather than rotated. Other people have no problems with their shoulders.

Most of these ergonomic things do help _someone_, I wouldn't claim that they don't work just because they don't help you.
This is exactly what I've been doing. I pay for a vps and just use vscode to do all of my work, I tend to switch between various computers and even various laptops, and it doesn't matter which one I'm on and just ssh into my dev station.
I can probably count on one hand during my adult life where that’s been the case. Is that really the reality for most?
There is at least Laricobius nigrinus for HWA, which has been identified as a method of biocontrol.

I've got a lot of opinions here, but the only one I'll share is that HCL knocks the socks off of json and yaml. Json is too rigid. YAML is too nested. HCL gets this just right.

Venturing away from opinions, the provider ecosystem with terraform enables some wonderful design options. For example, I have a module template that takes some basic container configs (e.g. ports, healthchecks) and a GitHub URL, then stands the service up on ECS and configures CI in the linked repo. CF can't do that.
providers do not support `for_each` or `count`
I’ve always been fascinated with language, and long had a hobby of looking up etymologies (my high school Latin teacher was great at pointing these out in class), but Rich’s style definitely pushed me to use it as a tool for thinking. Naming things is (famously) hard, but a strong command of language (and willingness to dig through the thesaurus) has lit the way through many difficult situations.

> Uber’s CEO blamed inflation for the increased rates, telling Wired during his sit-down that “everything is more expensive.”

> But the company’s prices in the US have increased at four times the rate of inflation – for a total of 83% — between 2018 and 2022, according to a recent Forbes analysis.

LOL, it's amazing watching CEOs use inflation as cover for their pricing decisions.

I'm not one to believe all companies are being this dishonest, but kudos to MSN for disputing their BS.
Any progress on a Linux version?
Kagi has another feature that can rewrite search results' URLs based on regexes: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html.

I successfully use it to automatically link to Old Reddit. I guess it can also be used to rewrite user-hostile websites' URLs such as YouTube/Twitter/etc to less hostile frontends such as Invidious or Nitter.
This is great news! Shout out to the Deep Space Network facility in Canberra, Australia for sending the instruction to reorient. (I'm Australian.)
Parallels always took that crown in my book, though I don't have that much experience with VirtualBox.
Nature certainly would not platform my position on this one. Why would they choose this other person?

Why can I tell you what it says without even reading the headline?
Thanks for the explanation.

I think there should be a bigger effort to change public perception about nuclear fission reactors if we're on the cusp of what is effectively the equivalent of the dream of endless fusion energy in the latest generation fission breeder reactors.
That drink a verification can meme is getting closer to reality it seems.
Thanks for the info. I think my point stands for open ocean deoxygenation. It is a natural process that global warming makes worse. The critical point is how much worse? Is it now an existential risk or just slightly worse than before?

I wouldn’t claim I have knowledge that it’s not a problem, but I’d like to see a model where it becomes a problem and for that model to predict observations. Until then, I just mentally file this away under doomer predictions.
Lovely.

The Book of Kells is also a candidate. [edit: though it wasn't printed as such]

https://www.google.com/search?q=book+of+kells&tbm=isch
Yeah, now they use that, but back in the good old days of the internet, they did not.
I think the going rate for a room now, just three stars or less, is around $200-250? And that’s anywhere close or not. I don’t think shuttles service hotel areas, since they are focused on Google’s who live in residential areas. It’s not like Europe where hotels are often mixed in with residential areas.
Deploy and fine-tune large language models on K8s
Very cool, thank you for sharing.

I do feel the need to comment on one particular line of hyperbole though:

> the likes of which we seldom, if ever, see in the printed books of our own, infinitely higher-tech century.

Advances in technology have generally been used to increase the availability of books and lower their cost.

Yesterday I purchased "The Hogwarts Library" for I think $40 and it included 3 large books full of hundreds of pages of full color images. That type of quality, especially at that price, would be unheard of in the 1800s.

And if you want books with similar features (and more!) to those this article describes you can get them:

Folio Society: https://www.foliosociety.com/usa

Easton Press: https://www.eastonpress.com/home

Amaranthine Books: https://amaranthinebooks.com/

Lyra's Books: https://www.lyrasbooks.com/

Suntup Editions: https://suntup.press/

(Also Arion Press, Centipede Press, Curious King, Subterranean Press, and St. James Park Press)

Books with those features are far more common today than they were when the Chaucer book was published.

And if you ever want to get into collecting rare, limited edition, and antique books come join us! We're a fun community (though like all things collectable bank accounts will suffer the consequences).
I guess that still doesn't explain why consumer preferences need to be conveyed through a strongman like Costco?

Is Costco really doing anything other than selling the more expensive version which you could buy anyway?

If not it suggests Costco is acting as some kind of hired protection, which definitely doesn't sound like an optimal supply choice scenario in an ideal market.
Cool but also really funny how much more expensive it is to get a much lower effective dose. 60 pieces of 10mg are $2.70
Yes, and many others too. But most people seem to use subscriptions instead.
What this post says: "throw away the first draft of your code"

What every HN commenter is replying to: "throw away your code"

--

I've written software professionally for 14 years and just last week I wrote code for ~3 days and then decided I was on the wrong track, and checked out main and made a totally new branch, spent ~1.5 days re-writing my feature in a totally different way. I had come to realize the new way would be easier to write, MUCH easier to test, and a bit more maintainable long-term. Nothing wrong with throwing away un-merged code if you decide that merging isn't the right decision, and feel you have learned valuable lessons to inform the re-write.
Let me guess: the TV in the room only plays YouTube.
Sodium 0.5.0
Sodium is a mod for Minecraft that dramatically optimises the rendering stack, making the game playable on lower-end systems, even moreso with this update.
The video had me until the punchy end.

The visual walkthrough of their proof was elegant in its exposition.

I understand the humor makes it more fun to work on and self effacing, but you hooked me with this novel tool to analyze political districts, and rather than process all of them and report on the findings, it was merely used to “own the libs”?

Are all the claims of gerrymandering false based on this metric?

What happens when you change the 40% for the minority metric?

I guess I discovered I would rather dwell on the abstraction of “arbitrarily extreme constants”.

People would use it to block all the spam sites that host copious amounts of (potentially Google's) Ads/Analytics, and since they might actually start finding what they're looking for this will reduce engagement on the search results page and with the sponsored links.

This is bad for Google's bottom-line thus why such a feature was removed and will never be coming back.
I am a fan of stoner/doom, partially for the sense of humor they seem to have about it. Blood Ceremony has this bit: "They say these rites are dangerous, they say we are insane / I'm only here to help you fraternize with Caine." And of course there's a flute in the mix for that proggy feel.

Psychedelic but still quite complex, well, I give away copies of The Evening Descends by Evangelicals because it has so much going on.

Exploration is tough. So many of The Algorithms seem to have settled on "Well, people who played that also played ..." and just don't seem to try very hard. Exploration of the now-mostly-over doomjazz microgenre has been a challenge.
Roko has been talking about this for a while. Definitely super interesting.
Interesting that nytimes.com is on both the 'block' and 'raise' lists.
It doesn't say Ubuntu doesn't work, it says that the chrultrabook project doesn't support it - so if audio (eg) doesn't work, you're own your own.
What do you use it for? Are you using many plugins? Curious what sort of insights someone using the tool this much might have, perhaps even through the batch of features released this week.
So far you've indicated you don't use a second factor and you have a file. So, I'm going with you've chosen long passwords with good randomness which don't match the rainbow tables and exceed some brute force cost in time you impute the bad actors use as a "move on" threshold, and your second observation is avoid reuse so there's no cheap uplift into other services.

I have no problem with your choices assuming I'm not wrong and I merely observe 2fa doesn't detract from this, and that bitwarden can be run as a server on your own hardware should you chose, or you can hand distribute the keys. The only advantage is prefilling and you may not care enough.
Nowadays that's the domain, but only after they did a migration from expertsexchange.com awhile back.
Sidenote, i'm a very happy $5-10/m Kagi user. However i also happily pay $20-$30/m for ChatGPT or Phind. I hope one day Kagi consumes some of these shares too (to convert my $30 to Phind into $30 for Kagi).

That might sound insane, i'd think so too, but FastGPT[1] is pretty damn good. It's not trying to be Phind, but still, quite surprising to me that it exists.
This guy captured the excitement pretty well:

Its a pretty common reaction anytime something is perceived as being overly self important. Its normal to us but I can see that perspective.
> it's always ALBs, EKS, dbs, etc. components indepedently that go into creating a service/stack

More importantly, modules represent the DRY principles. We host them in our private Terraform registry and share between teams
.. holy. I never thought of that, now i'm adding that. Thanks!
Yeah I print so rarely that owning a printer is a waste of space.

Plus the convenience store printers have neat tricks like being able to print A3 sheets or stickers.
Yeah the first time it happened to me it was surprising and I looked it up. But now it's practically weekly. Most spam texts still come from regular numbers though. "hi /cars* compro/carros"
Plays a role in what? What is your actual thesis here besides a general decline in exciting romance as you get older?
It goes to show how hard of a problem searching for relevant information is, when some of the world's smartest engineers can't help but return the world's most useless website in their web search.
>suggests that it could potentially be difficult for an open-source 2D printer to gain traction.

More difficult, as opposed to easier?

Avoiding this (insane) tracking anti-feature is an argument for open source, not against.
You believe the spirit of what the author meant was that because Jeff Bezos owns a lot of shares in Amazon, he controls the product design for Goodreads? Because otherwise that sentence is a total non sequitor and should have been removed. I'm also a shareholder of Amazon, am I also responsible? I disagree, I think the most likely explanation is that they didn't know he wasn't CEO anymore, and they believed that when he was CEO he micromanaged Goodreads, both of which are mistaken.

Even HashiCorp know vbox is scraping the bottom of the barrel for hypervisors:

I feel like you're giving advice on how to become a PhD student, and frankly, that's not the point of the question, and if it is: any grad student who can't read papers should ask their advisor for advice.

So I take OP's perspective to be from a practitioner (such as myself). Apart from my colleagues in R&D, we aren't called upon to write new papers that demands expertise in ever increasing narrowness. Instead we are to solve the needs of the product, usually regardless of specific expertise. So we need to be more broadly equipped, as it's typically better to have a screwdriver and a hammer and a screwdriver in the toolbox than a ten different screwdriver bits of varying niche application.

As an example, the TD-IDF paper curated in [1] has been broadly useful as a log analysis tool to surface interesting log lines and remove the mundane common "error" logs. There's been many advancements since then, using bayesian techniques or deep learning, but this one is simple enough and cheap enough to deploy.
Multiple backends are unwieldy if you're using terraform at the command line, but they beat workspaces handily for discoverability.
They're a fine option if you're applying through CI though, as the drudgery of utilizing them is handled effortlessly by the robots.
>Seems to have done pretty well [1], all things considered.

If being a democracy with elections is all that matters, yes. Putin's Russia fits that bill.
X's threads make even less sense now unless you think everyone you want to reach is on X.

Also, just what a dumb name.
Summary: some combination of:

- they’re smaller chickens and it’s not as much cheaper as it seems

- it’s a loss leader.
The feature definitely existed after the DC acquisition.
First of all, I am arguing against the notion that it will "be immediately clear" from the word.

But also, I don't think it is a new phenomenon. Capitalism always seeks to extract all resources that are available to it; that's the systemic nature of it. Sometimes it's a good thing, sometimes (as when it does to human attention, and other stuff, in general when it happens in the extreme) it's a bad thing.

Kinda like with fire. It's akin to conning a new word for forest fires caused by climate change, which would connect the dots with climate. People who haven't connected the dots already are unlikely to do so with the new word either.
I'm not sure districts are inherently bad. The concept that people living in the same geographic area will have similar concerns that need to be addressed makes sense to me.

I think my preference would be districts defined by geographic features and boundaries paired with a different set of elected officials determined by the type of proportional representation without any limits on geographic boundaries.

Pinterest is a successful product that provides value to its users (I'm not the target market and I guess most of us aren't either, but there is a segment of people that do get value out of it). I don't believe they have any malicious intent to explicitly go out of their way to ruin image search. I'm sure they don't mind the free SEO but I don't believe there is an explicit effort to mislead search engine crawlers (especially considering other engines correctly ignore such pages).

The problem is that their pages unintentionally trigger a flaw in Google's crawler (it's unable to detect that the content is actually obscured by a JS-based login wall) and Google is unwilling to implement an override because this spam contributes to their bottom-line (increases "engagement" on the search results page).
I find the big advantage of the reduced layout is that it moves the mouse/trackpad closer, reducing strain on my arm as a reach between the two.

I like the magic keyboard because it requires little effort to actuate the key and makes it easy to switch up my working position as it is so similar to the laptop keyboard.

I wish Apple would offer a combined keyboard and trackpad for desktop use that was the same as their laptops. I find being able to switch hands on the trackpad reduces strain.
Probably not. But gratuitous depictions of women is not the same as showing sexual chemistry.
Do you have a single source for this idea?
