Right now, what's most important to me is getting the permanent residency. I think many people are in the same situation. They made a goal of something (in my case immigration to the United States), and the meandering paths just falls off in terms of feasibility for such plans. I'm not against the article by any means, but I think for people like me, we already found what matters, and "meaning" or "fulfillment" is an extravagance in comparison.

Side note: this is very interesting but I felt like I've read this article before, maybe someone else already written about Todd Rose and Ogi Ogas?
That is exactly what happened last time during Chandrayaan 2.

"People who live in cities are not a uniform hive mind"

We need more of this! It seems so much of our public discourse is worsened by putting people and their opinions into firm groups, then assuming that anything anyone in that group ever says is a core believe of that group and then vilifying the group for that believe.
Yes, but whywhywhywhy is probably happier if there are fewer calls.
So looking at various benchmarks, reports and tuning guides, it does look like the spinning disks performance really suffers from zfs fragmentation. I haven't seen those before, but also haven't dealt with databases on zfs either. Something to keep in mind I guess.

Edit: after reviewing a few benchmarks, the outcome seems to be - even on SSD, make sure you actually want the zfs features, because ext4 will be a lot faster.
Back in 2017 ISRO had a record setting 104 satellites deployed on a single launch. Everyone said India would become the goto destination for cheap launches. Since then tens of thousands of satellites have been launched but very few via ISRO. So for whatever reason they totally missed that boat, and maybe their moon/sun/human space flight stuff is some kind of pivot.
Autonomous AI Founder: Can AI Be a Startup Founder?
Assuming that CY3 landed somewhere it gets eternal sunlight, I can see how this can be an issue. Many landers and rovers have horizontal solar panels - they would work as long as the sun is reasonably above the horizon. However, the sun is always going to be near the horizon at the poles. That would not only require the solar panel to be mounted vertically, but also be oriented towards the sun somehow.
Walking distance with a private office, maybe. I wouldn't even walk to the offices I've actually had to work in, not now that my home office is a viable option.
Good guess!

Yup. Another anti-terrorism bill aimed at the general populace, instead of terrorists.
It's too easy for smart CEOs to defect and gain an advantage by allowing WFH. The capital class is not reasonably aligned on the RTO issue. Many CEOs and leadership teams themselves are reluctant to come in to the office, and so end up aligned with their workers on this particular issue.
Landing on the Moon isn't easy and making it on the second try is pretty good, it took the USSR tons of tries to finally get a good soft landing. And recently we've seen groups from Russia, Japan, and Israel try to land softly on the moon without success.
I live in a city and I want to work from home. I'd never want to live in a rural area, the benefits or urban life are orthogonal to my career.
> What I've noticed is these kinds of workers absolutely thrive remotely

Thriving individually does not equate (necessarily) to thriving as a team, nor thriving as an organization. I see on HN too many people taking about how they personally perform better, which is (a) difficult to objectively self assess given all the biases involved and (b) ignores that the team might perform poorer or the organization might, due to a variety of frictions added by being remote.

It isn’t as black and white as some people like to claim.

Edit: I love how I am being downvoted on something as uncontroversial as stating that there’s more nuance than the current debate seems to devolve into on HN. Shameful.
Some people like living in cities, some people like rural living.

If we let the people who like to live in cities bunch up closer together (by legalising more density there), the rest of us have more space in the rest of the country. It's a win-win situation.
This is a very important distinction. I think it stands to reason that an overall industry trend towards more complexity must be due to essential complexity. Could you even have an enduring trend that is not due to essential complexity? Wouldn't people get better over time, or the accidental complexity lose out to non-accidentally complex?
Interesting. Where I grew up, rural Ohio, was a massive dairy farm where the milk was put into container ships and sent overseas to... Denmark.
Thanks for finding the perfect quote for what my thoughts were as well.

I'll also add that simplicity also comes from a lot of experience, since the most dangerous developers now seem to be the ones with minimal skill, that don't have the track record to understand that they can't predict what the future will hold, and should better just solve what's required while keeping their options open.
No, it has no concept of an instruction pointer.

Closest match I can find on that site is a Bully automaton: https://esolangs.org/wiki/Bully_automaton which is an extension of the more well-known cellular automata, except cells can reach out into other cells and "do things" to those other cells. I think this particularly because of the pistons in Minecraft, and the whole related functionality with slime/honey that means in Minecraft you don't just have the ability to set up cellular automata, but you have the ability to move the automata themselves around in the grid space.

Minecraft qua Minecraft doesn't seem to have an entry in that wiki but I'd call it an esolang of its own. The wiki does mention redstone ( https://esolangs.org/wiki/Redstone ) but the context of the text implies they're thinking in terms of gates and implementing conventional logic in it; I'd say redstone contraptions are simply themselves an esolang without having to build gates or anything else recognizable. It just happens to be embedded in a grid space that has a very wide variety of other inputs and outputs of interest to humans, unlike most abstract cellular automata grids.

Tsar Bomba was a one off and has no relation to weapons of today. Look up what's on top of Tridents, it's mostly W-76 of various kinds, all below 100kt, which is about twice more powerful than Fat Man when you consider that effects scale very sublinearly vs yield.

I agree, low paying hard work is not a good solution for boredom or a midlife/existential crisis.
As the link odyssey7 cited (and which you obviously didn't read) states, there is no proof that any such bug ever existed, with Sid Meier himself denying it. odyssey7 was correct to described it as "rumored".
* legal cash payments

Many eu countries alreadt have such limits , and I think it's fine to require that for legal transactions. After all the tax man has eyes everywhere already.
Yes - diet and exercise can play a significant role in slowing progression. If you become aware early you can quickly adjust these things in your life and it could slow progression.
I can only speak to this anecdotally, but I brush up against the "uninvention" concept all the time. In the kitchen.

These days, the thought experiment of "should I cook this" has shifted to "can I buy this?" There are a lot of worthwhile things to make in the kitchen that are economically infeasible due to shelf life, availability of ingredients, or preparation steps that don't automate well. Making anything out of regionally available fruit with a small ripeness window comes to mind.

Anyway, this is why I'm hopeful for DIY and Open-source community goings on. You never know what's going to crop up.
All sorts of medications inhibit inflammation because the body often goes apeshit and the “cure” becomes worse than the disease.

Isn't not being able to find an apartment more of a function of rent control than anything else?

“…however younger employees greatly benefit from in person learning and mentoring.”

Doesn’t require a permanent office. Temp cowork spaces or bundling working with a career mentor in the final stretch of college are two options I just thought of laying in bed while also thinking about making coffee.

More of the same is not an option for all the cost-benefit analysis that’s come up before.

Prior to world war industrialization, 90% of workers were independent. Post-war office life was a result of wartime solutions to logistics. A statistical outlier in human history.

Complexity and simplicity have a duality. Cars of sixty years ago were much simpler, but required more complexity to own and operate. More skill, more discipline, more maintenance. New cars are FAR more complex, and are far simpler to operate.
Sounds like this only applies to certain players:

The Wwft applies to anyone involved in cash flows or the purchase and sale of (expensive) goods. For example: banks; estate agents; notaries; tax advisers; lawyers; people who mediate in the purchase and sale of, for example, vehicles, art objects and jewellery.

So one-off transactions (you sell some personal item and accept cash) are probably exempt from the due diligence check.
Uh, this being a repeated problem in the past? Apple puts some sort of god mode behind an entitlement, only checks the entitlement rather than the actual permissions, disabling SIP allows for anyone to steal the entitlement and assume root. Apple does not consider this to be a legitimate security issue because they do not think systems with SIP disabled deserve security.
98. In prison. I imagine there is some theme about how luck and genetics still play a much larger role in health than stuff like sleep, diet, and fitness that I comfort myself with. No idea who this guy is btw, but back to the basics. 98. In prison - pretty amazing.

... but not, you know, urban sophisticates. There's nothing to tie a gardener's experience of dirt to a monster truck driver (or fan). There's nothing to tie a potter's experience of dirt to a monster truck driver. The way farmers are discussed in the article, I submit that the writer doesn't know, or care to know, any of those either.

There's a lot of words expended on how the people who are already fans get excited about some event. But the thing I was waiting for was the writer to express some excitement himself. Its always held at arms' length. Bits like

>The appeal has a certain timelessness: people have always liked really big stuff, particularly of the unnecessary variety. Stonehenge, pyramids, colossi, Costco. For perhaps obvious reasons, this is usually a male impulse.

or more damningly

>It was the experience of seeing something amazing and slightly ridiculous, something you’d have never thought of yourself, like a dog juggling knives. I understood the hugging impulse.

and

>As they rumbled by, grown men yelled at the top of their lungs, and a bachelorette party in front of Nudie’s Honky Tonk took videos.

really make it clear that the writer wants us to know he's not one of them, and you, the average New Yorker reader, should not try to find common ground with these people. He doesn't change his tune until the final segment, where he drives one of these trucks himself. Until then, its just bemused descriptions of other people's excitement, and its hard not to hear some second-hand embarrassment in those descriptions.

> In the United States and other western countries, a form of esophageal and stomach cancer has risen dramatically over the last five decades. Rates of esophageal adenocarcinoma, or EAC, and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma, or GCA, are both highly fatal.

According to this article:

McColl, K.E.L. What is causing the rising incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma in the West and will it also happen in the East?. J Gastroenterol 54, 669–673 (2019).

part of the reason for the rising cancer is obesity. So what this AI tool does is make it safer to be obese, thereby causing long-term suffering for more of the population. And part of the reason why people are obese is because of technology doing so many things so efficiently for them.

How about instead of developing more technology, we address the root problems instead? So far, all these medical solutions I have seen are bandaids that simply solve some of the problems of technology by creating more technology.

However, the end result is a world where everything is so efficient that we'll simply have to do nothing and grow fat and purposeless...
I've seen multiple CEOs talk about how they're successful because of how they grind 16 hours and have amazing business acumen, rather than family connections or just plain luck.

Just because they say something doesn't make it true. Just because they want something doesn't mean they get it. If they did, we'd all be working 7 days a week, on site, for minimum wage (which would be lower). Even the places going RTO are mostly going hybrid.
Luckily, the economy has companies of all shapes and sizes. So if the (supposed?) overhead of office politics gets too large at big organisations, they can be outcompeted by nimbler outfits.

If existing laws and regulations allow competition, that is. Some sectors are severely locked down.

It was by an incredible amount of luck that Lucretius' On the Nature of Things is still published today. If it wasn't for a group of Florentine hipsters the last copy might have rotted on a shelf in a neglected monastery library.

Exactly this. Currency transaction reports are mandatory for any individual transactions > $10,000. This limit $10K was established in 1970 (Bank Secrecy Act). After 50 years, $10,000 of 1970 should have been at least $50K of 2023. Politicians and their crony bureaucrats never want to index these limits with inflation.
Who said it's a problem?
>Seems promising at catching a decent proportion of Parkinson’s super early

What does early intervention look like for Parkinson’s (besides lifestyle changes)?

As far as I know the treatment for Parkinson’s is basically lifelong dopamine pills, which of course you build a tolerance to and which lose effectiveness over time, requiring ever higher doses. Meaning once you start on them, the ticking countdown of your brain’s lifespan starts as well.

The bigger the organization the more bureaucratic it becomes. High quality performance coaching and just maintaining internal communication is hard to scale. Big organizations tend to fallback to easy to measure butts in seats and lines of code.
if i am not mistaken, it already is 5000€ across EU for personal payments and 8k or 10k for business payments for years. So it is not a surprise they are pushing it down even more to limit people from holding cash. They will not outlaw it straight up due to many constitutions protecting it but they will make using it as hard as possible. The same as with covid, they imposed so many obstacles for ordinary people that it was easier to just comply.
That's the point I was clumsily trying to make.

But now that "custom emoji" on sites like Slack and Mastodon are a thing, the term "emoji" is losing it's meaning and reverting to meaning the same thing we had before.
> I worked with a lady who's husband was all in for the Gulf War.

Gulf War I was about forcing an invader back from the independent nation he had decided to annex, and it enjoyed wide support from the international community. It also exposed a much smaller amount of American troops to potential harm than earlier American wars, and so sparked less domestic outrage. There is no reason to expect a person who protested the war in Vietnam to oppose that defense of Kuwait, unless they were part of that relatively small demographic opposed to all Western intervention in general. The 2003 invasion of Iraq was a totally different story, and I have seen an increasing amount of online comments that erroneously conflate the two.
In Canada, and I think the US we cannot cross the border with > 10k in cash (edit: more if you declare it as mentioned below). The law has been there for as long as I can remember, be I sure purchasing power of 10k has gone down by at least a factor of 4-10 over the life of the law. All regulation type laws need sunset clauses and all dollar amounts should be inflation linked. The government shouldn't be able to scam more powers like this.
It’s an easy to use inference server for computer vision models.

The end result is a Docker container that serves a standardized API as a microservice that your application uses to get predictions from computer vision models (though there is also a native Python interface).

It’s backed by a bunch of component pieces:

* a server (so you don’t have to reimplement things like image processing & prediction visualization on every project)

* standardized APIs for computer vision tasks (so switching out the model weights and architecture can be done independently of your application code)

* model architecture implementations (which implement the tensor parsing glue between images & predictions) for supervised models that you've fine-tuned to perform custom tasks

* foundation model implementations (like CLIP & SAM) that tend to chain well with fine-tuned models

* reusable utils to make adding support for new models easier

* a model registry (so your code can be independent from your model weights & you don't have to re-build and re-deploy every time you want to iterate on your model weights)

* data management integrations (so you can collect more images of edge cases to improve your dataset & model the more it sees in the wild)

* ecosystem (there are tens of thousands of fine-tuned models shared by users that you can use off the shelf via Roboflow Universe[1], it plays nicely with our other open source tools like Autodistill[2] and Supervision[3], and there is a ton of content around fine-tuning models you can use with it[4])

Additionally, since it's focused on computer vision, it has specific CV-focused features (like direct camera stream input) and makes some different tradeoffs than other more general ML solutions (namely, optimized for small, fast models that run at the edge & need support for running on many different devices like NVIDIA Jetsons and Raspberry Pis in addition to beefy cloud servers).

This probably isn't surprising - there's strong evidence that specific diets (salted foods, alcohol etc) and being obese is highly associated with stomache cancers.

Beanie Babies would make a rather poor unit of account. As at any given time, two of the same model Beanie Baby can be worth two very different amounts in trade based on their condition. Whereas a dollar bill does not matter what its condition is (at least within a reasonable range), it is still worth a dollar. Also, two different models of Beanie Babies will vary in value with relation to each other, whereas a one dollar bill will generally always be worth 1/100th of a 100 dollar bill.
