This plates and metal bones are attached to the real bones. The attachment points must stand the weight of the body with minor bending.

Honestly, local politics can still have a big impact. The city I grew up in cancelled weekend bus service because the local Republican party thought it was a waste of money. If you're a person of colour, it can change your day-to-day life significantly if you're around people of particular political persuasions (either way). If you're uncomfortable with people carrying guns into grocery stores, likewise.

It is not fake. At the same time, I find it fishy as hell. First of all, it was not uncovered by the authorities, but by others; since it went public, then the authorities made the statemente yesterday evening (Cuba time.) It could be that an investigation was under way and this just blew the lid off.

Still, here's what I find extremely strange: Cuba is an island with very tight border controls; they know exactly who leaves and who enters. And here we have some kids going through the military service, that can fly out of Cuba? By the hundreds? No way.

The kids said that they were going to Russia to participate in construction activities, as contracted workers; however, they were diverted elsewhere with the ultimate destination being the front lines in the future. Could they be lying? Of course. I don't know.
The Harman targets are averages, and useful reference points. If you know that you want a q 2.0 -4.5dB at 3KHz, you can start by adjusting any system to the Harman target curve and then applying your own preference -- and this will be much easier than developing your own complete target curve.

But you could do that, too.

This starts off wrong-minded. Cost at closing is mostly irrelevant. The more important metric is cost of the mortgage over the entire term of the mortgage. Aside from those paying cash, *this* is what people's homes are costing them.
The absolute entitlement to believe that delivery workers should be coming up to your door at the 9th floor, while complaining about "ethics".

You're using a delivery service like Uber Eats, Deliveroo or Doordash that are well known to underpay, overwork and unjustly punish workers that do not maximize their deliveries per hour, and you have the gall to complain that they're not taking pride in their jobs from your ivory tower.

Google Groups Spam?

Anyone else encountered this?
Look, people were organizing for equality and justice long before “anti-fascist” started glibly rolling off people’s lips ten years ago. You can work for all the positive things you say and more and not be accusing anyone who disagrees with you in any respect of being a “fascist”. It’s just toxic. (For the record, I’ve organized to get greens on the ballot, put Chomsky audio lectures on the internet before most people had ever heard of the internet, …)

(BTW, I know people at a baptist church that many people would accuse of being “fascist” because of their religion who do all three of those things you say.)

Imagine someone thinking you can spend pride somewhere. This, in my experience, is a dog whistle for "do the shit job regardless of negative costs inflicted on the worker for someone else's benefit." People became accustom to the consumer excess from the abuse gig workers take, and now that workers have some leverage, consumers are clutching their pearls over the loss.
Perhaps the problem is America is economically biased. If your pride in your trivial job brings you respect in your community, then maybe it's worth it, even if you're struggling to make ends meet. If your pride buys you not a modicum of social standing, and barely let's you provide basic essentials for yourself, and you're treated with contempt or as an invisible person by your community, why put pride into the job?
Some of these show a misunderstanding of the situation.

> Most of the Canadian tech and indeed media industries pointed out how stupid this was, and Google and Meta said that given the choice, they’d stop letting news appear rather than pay a fee they could not control and that had no economic basis. The government thought this was the first kind of ‘no’ and a bluff, but actually, it was the second kind. Oops.

This was part of the intent. It was not a mistake. The goal of the Canadian government has always been to build up Canadian media. Keeping out big foreign companies is in line with that.

Tell HN: Buying a lottery ticket is rational
For many people, buying a lottery ticket is rational, in the sense of the Kelly criterion.

The Kelly criterion says that the strategy of maximizing expected value will lose 100% of the time to a different strategy. The most general form that I know of the winning strategy is: minimize your expected time to reach $X, for arbitrarily high values of X, eg $1M or $1B (ie, in the limit to infinity). Following this strategy will eventually beat any other strategy, 100% of the time.

For many people, the expected time to reach say $10 million is infinite: they simply cannot produce more than they consume, and in 10 years (or 100) they expect to be no better off materially than they are today. Any amount they try to save will eventually be used for some emergency (eg car breaks down, or health, or eviction/rent going up, etc).

Even assuming that the expected value of a lottery ticket is deeply negative, it is then Kelly-rational to buy lottery tickets, or more generally take a chance on any possible way of getting out of this equilibrium.

Of course I am handwaving away certain reasonable objections, and the argument can fail if indeed there is a chance of leaving the equilibrium otherwise, and the price of a lottery ticket is too high; but ultimately I believe the argument does apply to a not-insignificant percentage of buyers of lottery tickets.

This does hinge on the fact that in practice you can always "afford" to buy one lottery ticket per $period, yet you may not be able to save $2 per $period without ultimately having to raid the piggy bank for some emergency. So the lottery can be thought of as a creditor-/bankruptcy-/emergency-proof savings account

> If you start treating tests as any other code, it should get easier to change as your implementation changes, and you'll get a lot more value out of automated testing.

No, please, don't treat test code as any other production code. Test code can have duplication throughout if it helps readability, test code that relies on abstractions, utility methods, etc. are hard to read, which makes the test cases themselves hard to understand.

Test code should be easy to read a case, understand what the test case is preparing for (I like to add comments marking given/when/then sections to make it very clear), what is being called, with what parameters, and what exactly the expected result is.

I had my fair share of interactions with test code trying to be smart, test code abstracting away the assertions (into utility methods that themselves call other utilities), test code trying to avoid duplication, and causing headaches and requiring troubleshooting of test code... That is not the reason for test code to exist, it's not to be clean and concise. It's test, you need to know what it is doing, and very quickly assess what failed when a case fails.

Please, don't overengineer test code, it should be elegant but there's no need to write it as you would write production code, write it as documentation.
The thing is, depending on the dimensions of the vectors your using the growth rate can be pretty drastic. Each openai vector is 5kb and 1500 dimensions. So sure searching 1k vectors, just brute force it. But what if you have 100k vectors and a ton of users hammering at the index searching through it? Each search is now 150,000,000 dot products. Go up one more order of magnitude and you definitely need an index. And I don't think 1 million vectors is that much.
Due to how much industry adoption it’s gotten & how widely known it is by developers, it definitely is here to stay. Even if another framework eventually comes that takes React’s place as the go-to frontend framework, all the existing codebases will still need someone to maintain them.

What’s interesting is that it seems that a lot of newer popular frameworks are trying to build on top of it (IE Next) or support React components (IE Astro). New developments like this makes me think that even if React isn’t the go-to framework in the future, the React skill set will be easily transferable to whatever is.
No tax is fair unless it is insignificant enough to be universally paid willingly and joyfully. Plus every attempt at "progressive" taxation has been circumvented to a reversed outcome.

A tax almost always ends up curtailing what it taxes.

Taxing property curtails private property ownership, taxing income curtails productivity at the source, taxing expenditures curtails consumption.

Which of these is more sustainable with less compromise to overall economic opportunity?

Another solution is having a proper bicycle lock. Yes, they’re heavy but I bike around with Kryptonites largest and thickest U-lock, as well as sometimes with a 25-lb 18mm motorcycle chain for the bicycle.

I do think the food delivery model should only work for customers willing to pay delivery people $25+/hr, especially considering you’re not just paying what should be a living wage for labor but also renting the capital that the delivery person brings to the job (car, bicycle, locks, etc)
If the payment for the service doesn't cover the costs of the service (insurance for a bike and for the loss of work before a new one is found), then what is so surprising? The market is adjusting: if the cost is fixed, then the offer (quality of service) gets reduced.
It seems like "upstairs" delivery should be a paid option and be explicit in the ordering and delivery apps.

Awesome! That web viewer kind of sucks but the model is amazing.

Here's where they messed up: the orbit is backwards. Clicking and dragging has very well defined behavior: if you drag to the left, then the thing you are interacting with should move to the left, but in their viewer the camera rotates to the left, so the world rotates to the right, which is backwards!
well that's the thing.

i had kids late. but i wasn't really any more ready to have kids in my 30s than i was in my 20s. and on the other hand i don't feel any different as far as life stage goes in my 40s than in my 20s. yes, i am and feel more mature, but my interests haven't changed and i am just as willing to explore the world now as i was then.

but now i have the financial means to do that, which i didn't have then.

and i am from a country where parenting is financially supported by the government, so there is absolutely no need to have saved money to be a parent.

in countries where this isn't the case the situation is perhaps a bit different, but then, lacking financial resources doesn't stop people from having kids, and even those will be better off in their 40s and still be able to explore their interests more than they were in their 20s.

the only thing that gets in the way is the expectation from others, to have a house, to have a career, to stop being impulsive when you are older, lack of support from their own parents, etc.

i see it happening in china. people get married and have children much earlier. most have very supportive grandparents (because the grandparents want kids) and when these couples are in their 40s and 50s they are still full of energy and are able to enjoy their life.
> the data really isn't very well correlated

It is however trivial to correlate - if there was a desire (or significant error) deemed it to be so.

Of course basing your population estimate off the number of tax returns would "leave out some people" (>90% of the population of the uk for that example). Likewise basing it off the register of all children in schools would ignore most people over the age of 18.

Ultiately the issue is that these people claim is rife is - all these undocumented people are getting all the jobs, benefits, healthcare, housing, government grants and school places which ignores the fact that to get any of those you have to be documented and registered on a myriad of systems to access that.
It's not the communism that restricts freedom of thought in China but the dictatorship at the top. True communism (and socialism) are democracies and permit freedom of thought. Actually, communism and socialism are more democratic than capitalist societies because even the workplaces are democratic. Capitalist workplaces are dictatorships. Some day the world will see dictatorial workplaces like we see slavery today and capitalism will end.
The market decides.

Food delivery most places mean to the door of the apartment, not the apartment complex entrance.

This is terrible for food delivery agents, since it slashes the efficiency of most deliveries.

I always run downstairs, since I am humbled that anyone would cook and bring me food. But as long as this is not the norm, food delivery agents are at the bottom of the food chain. In the past, this was a job for unions.

Postal workers of Denmark had passed by law that mailboxes must be at street level. So all apartment complexes nationwide had to install extra mailboxes at the ground floor if they hadn't already. It can be quite bad for your knees to walk thousands of stairs every day.
Your math is wrong. 100k 32 bit vectors is 600mb

Most of the replies have turned this into a gun debate. Realistically it’s because he was involved in disconnecting service. When you have to do any sort of job that puts you in the position of taking something away from poor people, you’re at high risk, because taking something away from someone who is desperate and likely feels the got the short end from society is not a recipe for a jolly day.

In your average American neighborhood none of this would happen. In the rougher poor neighborhoods, everybody thinks everyone is out to get them (and frankly they might be right), is on edge, and likely has a loose association to the law or social mores.

Without going into an entire sociology diatribe, in America there are many reasons someone may end up poor, but low impulse control, lack of education, and an inability to follow rules tend to top the list, all of which can lead to very troubling outcomes that wouldn’t happen among the gainfully employed average, whom also pay their bills and would not be targeted for disconnection of service.

The majority of Americans own or have access to firearms (although it’s barely a minority of “households”), but incidents involving firearms happen in poorer neighborhoods predominantly. The mix is not great, and we should do something about it as a society but it’s a complex and somewhat intractable issue that’s not fully solved by just throwing money at it (just look at council houses in the UK as an example of similar outcomes despite social support).
Imagine being in a world where you can wave your finger over some little glass shard, and a hot meal of your choosing is delivered to you.

Then imagine complaining that you had to go outside your house to get it. I think the act of getting off the couch and going downstairs before consuming your food is probably a good thing for your health; and the primary reason for all of this is the delivery driver, who is likely living a harder life than you, doesn’t want to lose their livelihood.
