I always found the class clowns to be surprisingly smart. I knew this one guy who was a total goof off who always came to class high as shit. I remember one time talking with him in the computer lab only to be surprised he wanted to talk about programming as he had been playing around with game engines for a little while.

There was another guy who was admittedly pretty funny, but I never heard him say anything serious in the entire years I knew him. Until one day, when I had started doing some freelancing work and he stopped by and talked to me about his own pursuits.
"It’s interesting to go back to TV shows and movies from even the 1980s and 1990s and see how much bigger people’s social networks were. Like people would have regularly scheduled bridge nights with neighbors and shit like that."

To be fair, those are TV shows and movies...not real life.

I have been working remotely since about 2005-2006. I have always love a good Internet connection with backups (wherever possible). I remember befriending the local cable guy so I can get 1Mbps in 2000.

Now, I have three Internet connections bonded and balanced. It is not about the minutes of disconnection but more about the disconnection when I needed it most. I have ample non-internet time and personal/family downtime. However, when the time comes, I’m happy that the Internet is never a bottleneck in my work and play. I have had this setup since around the early days of the Pandemic and our home, per se, “never had an Internet Outage” since.

I'm not into servers, devops, networking or anything of that sorts, but I love tinkering with them. I would love to have an "overkill home network" one day.

Internet is super cheap in India and I can afford all three for a really decent price. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUWeopdPVOp/
I've been wanting to make an X570D4U-2L2T + CS381B build for a year, but haven't been able to justify the price.

The Latte Panda Sigma looks pretty amazing too if in-band ECC is sufficient.
How much problem would no Apple support pose in this case? Seems to me that a distribution would be even harder than a kernel support if based on reverse engineering instead of official support?
The section you quoted was about questions they asked the students: How lonely did they feel, how often did they drink alcohol.

Gather 580 middle school students and you’ll find a subset of them engaging in shocking behavior. This can usually be traced back to a combination of disengaged parents and older siblings who are a bad influence. 13 year olds are teenagers and are plenty capable of stealing their parents’ alcohol if desired.

The prevalence of these behaviors varies wildly from one demographic to another. I’ve been involved with schools with highly involved parents where a student even hearing rumors of one of their peers consuming alcohol would set in motion a chain of events where parents talked to each other and their kids about alcohol use and took steps to keep each other informed and lock their own alcohol away.

Meanwhile I have extended family who teach in two different farming communities. It’s not uncommon for even middle schoolers to get caught with drugs or arrive at school under the influence of something. Not all of them, of course, but it’s a frequent enough occurrence that it’s not all that noteworthy when it happens again.

The range of parenting styles and home environments across the United States is extreme. It can be unfamiliar to many who grew up in one bubble to hear about the vast differences that exist in other bubbles.
I don't know if it's just me, but Airbnb recently stopped working for me on chrome. A partial website would load, with the basic images of a property, but I was never able to load more. I later discovered that Firefox works, so I use that, but not before planning my previous trip with booking.com . That was when I realized just how bad Airbnb's search is. With booking.com you can take an area of a map and sort by total price. With Airbnb you can only sort by price per night. but with cleaning fees varying a lot, that is pretty useless information.
This is so cool! My first entry in this series was WipEout Pure on PSP; such a great experience and remastered twice with HD and Omega Collection. Impressive how the PS1 original can run at 60 fps in a browser.

And the only way to get multi-level lists is with their WYSIWYG editor. Can't do that manually.
You are stating these things as though they were established facts. But they seem to be opinions. Or do you have data to back them up?

> People who are new to vim-style-editors and go to neovim are mainly people who would have gone to vim if neovim didn't exist.

It seems reasonable to assume that a lot of new people would not pick up either Vim or Neovim without LSP integration and Tree-sitter.

Vim has adopted a lot of the early features of Neovim and now Vim9 also has things like virtual text for rendering LSP diagnostics in the buffer[1] and there is a Vim9 LSP plugin too. But it does not at all seem likely that Vim would have these were it not for the push from Neovim.

Besides, it looks like Vim still does not have mature support for Tree-sitter.[2]

> Well, the prevalent wisdom of 30+ years of FOSS has been that they're mostly bad.

There are many famous forks from the past 30 years that hardly anybody calls bad. Some examples: Net/Free/OpenBSD, GNU/XEmacs, Open/LibreSSL. These projects allowed people with different goals or values to carry on in their own directions, while also motivating each other to pick up development pace. They have often also shared code with each other.

Having spent a decade building embedded C, its refreshing to see that I'm not the only one who sees the value in doing things well.

Every single one of the steps here, though they may seem excessive provide immense value, not at first, but as the project grows, matures, and needs to exist for decades.

I am rather surprised at all the negativity here. I assume that it's either few of the people commenting have worked on embedded systems, or the few that do do not have an appreciation for maintaining a large project for the long term.

Attitudes like I'm seeing expressed here are reinforcing my desire to get away from embedded, or at last work with people that don't wish to stay stuck in the stone age.

I'm not intending to argue here, just surprised and a bit sad at the reactions, and happy that some people, at least at memfault share my values.
Looks like every homelabber's dream.

My main feedback is give those fibers a bit more breathing room. The bend radius is a little tight.
What's "accurate" is going to be different for every website / destination network anyways. Unless you suspect there's some issue with the speedtest software running on the browser / target, it's showing you the accurate speed you get to Cloudflare or whatever server you're trying to pull from. If you just want to see what your ISP is limiting your bandwidth to, sure, you need to find a server that can hit that.

The best speed test is to download some large linux ISOs with 100+ peers, so you max out your connection to tons of networks.
I can tell you that redhat has conducted a hostile license audit at my corporate data center.

This is one factor in my determination to never allow them into my regional data center. There are several other factors.
> Of course this was all probably exacerbated by a turbulent home life at the time.

In my limited experience working with kids of this age in an educational environment: Home life was far and away the strongest correlate of behavioral problems that I anecdotally observed. It was sad watching good kids suddenly become troubled, then to eventually learn that something traumatic had happened in their home life right around the time of the change.
Exactly this. A lot of the friends I grew up with have no interest in what I find interesting. And I don’t care much for their lifestyle of going to the same kind of club for a 100th time.

Sometimes I talk shit on here, sometimes I just talk to the AI bot. Otherwise no one wants to talk to me or cares so I am the target fool to rent a life coach or whatever just to be able to rant to another person.
SUSE, Canonical, Prisma (though their dashboard is closed source), Gitlab, pretty much every crypto company in the blockchain/web3 space.

And Hashicorp + Red Hat managed to make it work as open source companies for >10 years also

There are many more "open core" companies, like TimescaleDB, Docker, etc, who then sell proprietary services on top of the open source software

The owner's house is outside of Orlando, in a gated community. When I go traveling, I want to be close to where there are things to do. If you are willing to spend so much to go to Disney world, I would assume you also are willing to spend the money to stay in Orlando.
You can ask, but parents are drawn at random from the population of adults, so you need to expect just about anything.
My parents sucked and half of them definitely didn't enjoy kids, despite having many. My wife's parents sucked and still suck. My kid's parents don't suck but my life is definitely not made more enjoyable anywhere near 100% of the time because I have a kid. It has moments but it's also a huge financial and time commitment. My wife and I would be better off financially without a child and her health would be far better. (Having a kid was the catalyst to many medical problems.)

Do you have a support team that shares the load with you? We don't have anyone we can rely on. My in-law that does fly out sometimes would rather play with their phone than be a grandparent and we can't trust them to so much as drive a dog to the vet because we're sure they'd get distracted or lost or just crash.

Kids are a ton of of work. Life is a ton of work. Combine those two things and have no "village" to speak of and it's often too much. There's no pop psychology needed to point out that for many people, kids aren't their best life. Kids aren't always rewarding. Sometimes the right answer is the easy answer: if you don't want kids, having one will not be a net positive for your life.
What do you interpret "aligning with your subconscious" to mean?
No, it’s correct. BSD at least allows anyone to create a restrictive fork of the code.

With a CLA, it grants Hashicorp rights to your contribution no other corporation has.
> It prepared me for being okay with some social isolation required in college to study like crazy and end up with a great career.

I’m glad it worked out for you, but social isolation isn’t the only way to study and land a good career. Even my friends at notoriously difficult universities had good social lives as long as they had a modicum of time management.
I think the easiest way to manage it is essentially to do nothing. Accept open source contributions without a contributor license agreement and their copyright locks in future maintainers, yourself included. Extricating those contributions eventually becomes impossible without a cleanroom rewrite that is usually economically impractical and way too risky to a business with revenue.
no that's actually true. in the mid 80s, it was the only personal computer that actually had preemptive multitasking built into the operating system.

serial communications were interrupt driven which didn't lend itself well at all to cooperative multitasking schemes. (gotta service those buffers asap)
My grandma and grandpa had… regularly scheduled bridge night with the neighbors and shit like that.
I have a HP MicroServer with ECC RAM.
Yes, they would be allowed.
Obligatory book recommendation: Empire of Pain

At the end, it goes a bit into how to bankruptcy and settlements were structured.

Can you say what that says about the behavior described with the modular arithmetic in the article?

And, in particular, how to interpret the fact that different hyperparameters determined whether runs, obtaining equally high accuracy on the training data, got good or bad scores on the test data, in terms of the "view it as a kernel machine/interpolation" lens?

My understanding is that the behavior in at least one of those "models learned by gradient descent are equivalent to [some other model]" papers, works by constructing something which is based on the entire training history of the network. Is that the kernel machines one, or some other one?
I think that would be an acknowledgment too painful for the brand.
And at least back in the day, the pistol/rifle range wasn't very large either (and had a variety of competing users.)
Oh, I wasn't referring to your other comment.

Just noting that since the Bay Area's pretty heavily populated, bringing in Puerto Rico (shifting the US median south by ~1.6 million people) takes the median from say Napa's latitude to, say Alameda's latitude (keeping in mind that there's also Louisville KY and other smaller non-SFBA towns in the same band of latitude).
I'm not saying it doesn't happen.

I'm saying that using TV and movies as a reference for what real life was like in those times (or any time) may not be the best idea.
I bought some headphones on Amazon that came with a note offering a $10 refund if I left a 5-star review. I didn't. But several months later when I decided to leave a real review, I found that the product was no longer listed. But an identical product was now sold from a vendor with a near-identical name as the previous vendor. Digging deeper, I see that they even had another different name before I even bought it.

So that's at least 3 different times that this vendor has boosted their reputation and sales by paying for reviews and then switcheroo'd after things slow down.

Meanwhile Amazon happily collects its fees and doesn't give a damn.
One feature I would love is an ability to export a list of downloaded apps so I can import and re-install from a new machine. Even better if you can sync with Mackup.

I’ve been keeping a shell script of all the install commands I run so I can get up and running quickly
Accuser could be guilty of malicious intent (lying), Uber assumed their innocence in that respect.
Yes, maybe they are a bit 'apples to oranges'. You have some good points, especially when it comes to textual data. Thanks!
Grew up in EU as well(Austria). When around 13 we’d buy alcohol with the old “I’m getting it for my dad” excuse. (Obviously my dad needed some 4% alcoholic lemonade in the early afternoon) Cashiers didn’t really care. At least back in the 90s.

Starting high school (~age 15, legal drinking age is 16) we’d go to bars to have a beer.
We used to have chats, you know, same office. Phone. Email, things that were trackable.

Then Slack, with channels and DMs. Then came threads. Threads are horrible to track conversations.

And now more and more I see people using reactions to communicate important information.

What I like about email is that it's quite binary. Read or non-read.

In Slack there are so many different ways where a channel might have an unread part that isn't there at the bottom.

It's like the mint I planted when I was drinking too much, that think sprouted everywhere.
> it's pure luck if you find the right therapist

A while back I caved and asked some people I know about finding a therapist. Though, I was still very half assed about the whole idea.

I ended up giving up, because when I was looking, every therapist I could find that looked like a good fit was “not taking new clients” and the ones that were available seemed to specialize in things that were just not me.

Get your doc to check your potassium/sodium levels. If your sodium is on the high end, and potassium low: check your aldosterone levels.

I had that, turned out to be an adenoma on my adrenal gland that was flooding me with aldosterone. That’s a hormone That controls your k/na balance - which controls your bp.
I never really understood this argument to be for or against EVs. Electricity is an universal energy source. It can be created via renewables or fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are also a limited resources and have the ability to become depleted. Renewables might have a temporal limitation. Infrastructural changes, such as sending excess solar electricity to cloudy locations can offset this via HVAC or HVDC lines.

Since fossil fuels are a limited resource, they should be saved and used when renewables can not. This also improves national security and pushes fossil fuels to be better rationed.

The middle east is also a big investor in solar. Just like a drug dealer, when you consume your own product this reduces ability to sell and make more money. By offsetting fossil fuel for creating electricity with solar, they can make more money by selling oil they normally would be burning.

Wouldn't it also be a better use of energy to charge EVs at night instead of having always on street lamps spending millions to shoot photons into space in order to offset the low user consumption during the time period?
Majority are just as bad but they at least tell you when there's a failure, so sms makes a good fallback
Yes fair enough. I know my link is great - I pay for 300 up and down and that's what I get. I was running measurements to track degradation in wifi performance due to distance from the router - out in the yard - and how much difference one of these 8 antenna monster routers made. My use case is 100 video conferencing that I want to do reliability from the yard.

My son’s university simply opts to have the registration system crash randomly multiple times a minute if necessary until courses are somehow filled. Then you can sign up for text alerts over the coming weeks if an opening becomes available. You have approximately 8 seconds to login and grab the space.
Bear attacks are extremely rare but the locals take precautions anyway. Pretty much everyone has a shotgun and very few doors are locked.

My wife would move us there if housing wasn't an issue, so I've had this conversation.
> People are forced to value jobs and careers more than relationships.

This feels like an 80s trope. People are lonely because the discomfort of social situations drives them to hide in their smartphones rather than take the time to get to know people. It's a sad prison.
Hey, Timo here, co-founder of Tiptap. Sorry for this situation. I am actually not aware about this. Can you please share more information, so that we can investigate this. When did this happen? Can you show me the places in the code that we copied?
depends on the hyperparameters, and the architecture (and probably the task)
At some point far, far in the future. If you think this through you’ll see it’s one of the hardest tasks to get a robot to do.

Stairs, judgement, packages of different size and weight, dogs, gates, doorbells, lobbies.
Have you ever tried to get a robot to walk? It’s hard. Climb steps? Open a gate? Open a lobby door? Ring a doorbell to get into a lobby? Do all that while holding a package of arbitrary size and weight?

I would sooner try to automate the job of a lawyer, software engineer, customer service rep, marketer, CTO…

So maybe you cheat. Standardize box sizes. Standardize delivery points. Good start! Go cost out 300M steel delivery boxes and 300M unique install jobs. And 200M of those don’t have room on the property for it. Think about people who live in cities for a moment.

Just deliver to mailboxes! Try that one out and report back!

Ooh! Drones! Amazon spent a billion bucks on it before giving up.

I’m not saying you posted your response in bad faith, but might I humbly suggest that in the future you try to think things through a bit more?
Ask HN: What would your audio conversational AI stack be?
I am wondering what the best stack is for creating conversational AI agents. What would you use for transcription? text generation? audio generation?
The legal theory is that the law cannot compel you to lie. Of course, this is untested.
On the flip side, imagine the perils of attractive or athletic in middle school IE peaking!

I knew a few people whose peak was in middle or high school. Nice folks now but they yearn for their teens which is sad.

Probably expands the API too much, but one missed use case I just ran into would be a .import function for loading a json list of records or jsonl directly into a table from the command line. This can be roughly replicated through readfile and some juggling, but will not work from stdin (I think? I would love to pipe json directly into a table).

The other alternative I considered was dumping the entire json blob into a one row table, before having a second query extract out the fields.
> is well known

No... It's known by the guy who wrote it 40 years ago that happens to still live there and want to chip in to fix it

> maintained

Well, they said parts are difficult to find now. I would not consider something with no replacement parts well maintained

> taking a bet the new system will be more stable than the old one

What? It's a gamble to leave it as it is with a bus factor of 1 and rickety old computer parts. Setting up a replacement doesn't imply this one goes away. If the new one is worse, they can have a plan to switch back to the old. If this computer catches on fire, they have to pray they can find a working replacement that the original implementor can install.
Your timeline is wrong. JBoss was acquired by Red Hat in 2006, then Oracle Linux was announced a few months later also in 2006, then Oracle bought BEA Systems in 2007.

Oracle and Red Hat both entered the bidding for JBoss and Red Hat ended up winning. Larry Ellison took this very poorly.
Will normal users really do that? I feel like a normal user's computer could be on fire and as long as it booted they'd continue on as usual.
In addition to this, tank water heater systems include a sacrificial anode rod.

Water heater tanks include different metals in contact with the water, which creates a galvanic cell. Over time this corrodes the least noble metal. The rod is added in the design to corrode before pipes do. The rod is usually magnesium, aluminum or aluminum-zinc. It slowly but steadily leeches out the rod metal into the hot water supply.
