The problem here is where these actions come from. Generic LLM cannot generate correct actions in many (if not most) real life cases. So, it will have to learn, and LLMs aren't good at learning. For example: "I'm tired, play my favorite". The action depends on _who_ is saying and on what's going on right now. There may be someone sleeping, or watching TV. I'm afraid that acceptable solution is much more complicated.
I'm pretty sure evolution and survival of the fittest is not as simple and straightforward as having more babies. Among other things, if you have fewer kids but they thrive and reproduce, then you're still in the game.

Dell Insperion work really well for linux too, so is the high-performance Precision laptops, they often have a software package from Dell containing all needed kernel drivers to run the laptop, however I should point out managing CPU fan and thermals is a bit weird/bad sometimes (you can either hear your laptop run the fan on full speed without running any intensive process, and sometimes you can touch the pads around the trackpad only to find your laptop is really hot), this has been also my experience with Toshiba/HP laptops on linux as well.
Loose credit fuels bubbles, who'd have thought?

State backed credit guarantees are a conditional obligation, meaning they don't affect the state balance sheet (until they do, all at once). It's like crack for central governments.

> Thing is that with my line of work stuff breaks often and IDEs rightfully decline to work on broken codebase.

So you throw away smarter tools like IDEs because they do not understand your code when it's broken, but then you start using dumber tools that NEVER understand your code?

I would say an IDE can still do anything your dumber tools can (grep, dumb find-replace) even when your code is broken, but when it's fully working it gives you so many superpowers it's incredible you would not want that.
Yeah this reply doesn't make sense. This is talking about design. You're talking about login. You can stretch it and say UX can be improved but even then it's not as relevant.

We used to call these "copy-parties", because not a single person had a network capable computer. It was the late 80ies and besides a demo competition (or two) it was basically copying floppies and playing games with two joy-sticks attached to a single computer.
There are two different definitions of "day". The sidereal day is the time it takes for a body to complete a full 360° rotation about its axis. The synodic day is the time between success zenith passings of the parent body. If the body rotates in the same direction as its orbits, the synodic day is longer than the sidereal day; if its rotation is in the opposite direction, the sidereal day is longer.

On Earth, the synodic day is 24 hours long, and the sidereal day is about 4 minutes shorter. In the case of Mercury, the sidereal day is 59 Earth days and the synodic day is 176 Earth days. Note that the synodic day is the one we on Earth use to define the length of a day for timekeeping purposes--it's a lot easier to measure synodic time than sidereal time.

No one has ever said that you shouldn't comment your code.

If you are hired to follow, then you are supposed to follow. You can give advice and suggestions but you have to fall in line when an executive decision is made. That's how a team works, otherwise you aren't doing your job.

If you're hired to lead. Then you need to make decisions and you're responsible for the success and failure of those decisions. You should have profound beliefs about why you make your decisions but also be able to take advice and suggestions, but at the end of the day, the success or failure is on your responsibility, not the advice givers - thus you always have the right to not act on others advice and suggestions.

It's important to know what your role is in any organisation.

I actually like this 1995 movie Crimson Tide that illustrates these principles while exploring moral ambiguities and procedural issues while under huge amount of stress where the lives of not only men in the sub is at stake, but the lives of whole nations when it comes to making decisions and when it is a good time to challenge those decisions.
I agree without doubt to this. It's just an excuse for settling down with your 'temporary' problem and not actually working on fixing it. From what i think, like previously mentioned, rigorous practice of eliminating any kinds of distractions and focusing on what you actually intended to do with the right diet and proper intake of water should be the ideal way to look at it.
I don't know if they did, but back then, people revered anything ancient

They believed that the older something was, the more "truthful" it must be. E.g., Hellenes mistakenly regarded Jews as a people with the most ancient books and religion[2], and therefore, as being true

I think it's somewhat similar to how Earthlings might react if we were to encounter an older alien civilization

This somewhat resembles the Lindy Effect on an intuitive level

Texas does have interstate exchanges on the borders. Technically.

The trick is that we don't import or export even 1GW of power at peak, so it never really has that much impact.

You do need to distinguish between what absolutely does or does not happen, versus what effectively does or does not happen.

We are agreed on what effectively does or does not happen.
I found good results with the pods too - either cascade platinum or the finish powerball ones.

One other thing made a difference between good and bad cleaning in a load - plates near the dispenser.

The detergent dispenser is in the door and putting plates on the bottom rack sort of between the bottom rotating arm and the dispenser seemed to interfere with the pod. It would prevent or delay dissolving the pod and mixing with the water. leaving some free space in the bottom rack in that location was key.
I wonder how the American student debt explains how the same thing is happening to housing in Denmark. Now, I’m not arguing against the article, having high student debt is certainly going to impact your ability to own a home, but it’s certainly not the only factor which is at play.

Our sister company develops housing for renting. Which was a very lucrative business back when interest rates weren’t evil. What they really do, however, isn’t to rent out homes, it’s making investors money. Keeping rent high is a bigger part of that journey than actually renting out homes, because ultimately the end goal isn’t to own the building, it’s to either sell it or use it as leverage in other projects that makes our investors money. In the city I live in, we have 10.000 empty dental right now, which is quite a high number in a city of a quarter of a million people, but the rent isn’t going down. It’s not going down, because it’s hard to increase if once you lower it, and since the goal isn’t really to rent out these homes but rather to make investors returns, it’s better to ride a decade of empty rentals than to lower the rent. It’s better because the finance data looks better when the potential profits are higher, and as long as that is more important than actually realising that profit then rent isn’t going to come down. Now, obviously there is some competition in the rental market, but every investment bank developer is sort of in our shoes and while it’s obviously a little bit of a game of chicken, it’s not really, because there is still a housing shortage in popular towns. But because we’re playing chicken, the smaller sized rental companies don’t actually need to compete that hard on pricing because we won’t lower ours, and there is enough of a demand that they can get a way with just being in our slipstream.

I’m not sure if that’s a thing in America, and there is a lot more to it than this. Here in Denmark we have the same urbanisation and population decline as many other places, so housing is very uneven with urban areas increasing prices while rural areas see theirs plummeting to the point that some homes are frankly unsellable. But it’s mainly due to general debt, and how we let people borrow too much money, which student debt is part of, but not the single contributor to.

But even then what’s the point. Maybe I don’t think of exercise as something to maximize. Just has to be good enough.

It many cases hindrance came from comparing walks. When it’s much better for me to just pick the walk that suits my mood, not the most strenuous.
Better answer: just stop central government guarantees on loans. State guarantees are what allow FM&FM to lend money without regard for actual risk management, because they know they will be bailed out.

Remove the guarantees, and banks will actually have to do their due diligence on credit risk. No need for clunky regulation, when this is what the credit market is for.
The Awk Programming Language, 2nd Ed.: What's New?
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how we'll ever run out of arable land. The Earth has been warmer than now, in the distant past: there were times when the poles were not frozen over. Of course, this means the sea level was higher than now, so melting all the glaciers means a lot of our cities (and probably most of Florida) will be underwater, and it isn't so easy to pick up a city and move it to higher ground. A warmer Earth probably means more deserts, but there should still be arable land, in places that are currently cold tundra perhaps.

emacs 29 comes with eglot built-in. That's the LSP client for emacs and as long as your language has an LSP server, it can hook to it. OP is using C and I am not sure there's a LSP server for C that can work well in emacs, but using Go and Dart and Java seems to work just fine in emacs, just like other IDEs.

> I've never understood why anyone would choose to debug by printing and logging if they have a good debugger available to them.

Because logging provides a different experience and can be sometimes much faster. I can run the code once and then analyze all the collected information later. The log allows me to go back and forth very fast, or very quickly see that e.g. a 150th iteration went sideways even if I don't exactly know what to expect. Another area where logging is tremendously helpful is debugging concurrency related bugs.
And of course the politicians responsible for this horrendous policy will not be held responsible, they will be given a free pass by the media who will point to some boogeyman and then blame climate change.

> Can you describe a general rule

You can't charge a subscription for something someone already physically owns.

That ought to stop this sort of nonsense while still allowing most all SaaS stuff to keep going. Heck you could still charge a service contract for the seat heaters. You just can't go "No we won't enable this thing that's already fully wired up and ready to go and fully owned by you"

Though honestly the "correct" way to fix this sort of nonsense is to rework or possibly repeal DMCA entirely. It's absurd a manufacturer can put a lock on my stuff and have it be illegal for me to remove the lock.
Fuel cells have rather limited lifetimes afaik and ammonia is easier to store than hydrogen.

The lockfree scheduler certainly looks interesting (especially linearizability of event broadcasts), but I was surprised to see benchmark results in the paper with a peak of 43500 messages/s for 12 pairs of actors (and 12 cores?), with a graph showing ~5000 messages/s for a single core, which is surprisingly low for that kind of benchmark. Unfortunately the engine requires linux and more importantly x86 (due to asm intructions) so I wasn't able to replicate them yet, but I would expect at least ~1 million requests/s per a pair of actors (e.g. with Erlang), otherwise the overhead is prohibilitely low.

The engine also focuses on message passing, but from experience it's very difficult to work with (state machines are hard, especially when working with multiple downstream actors), and at the core actors are more about isolating state without locks than message passing. Swift actors did it right in my opinion, method calls instead of messages are not only easier to reason about, they give additional hints to the runtime when context may switch without involving a scheduler at all (any shared state is slow and inhibits scalability).

I actually wrote a header-only library recently (search for "coroactors" if you're interested) that implements something similar to Swift actors with C++20 coroutines, and I thought ~10 million requests/s (when uncontended) or ~1-3 million/s (when contended and depending on a scheduler) was a way too high of an overhead, especially when compared to normal method calls with shared state protected with mutexes. Coroutines tend to go viral (with more and more functions becoming "async" coroutines), and any non-trivial code base would have a lot of coroutine calls (or messages passed), and that overhead needs to be as low as possible, otherwise you'd spend more time task switching than doing useful work.
How do the 10,000 landlords collude to not rent out their apartments? In Sydney it is way more free-market like. Rents tanked during covid and rocketed after (relative to their covid low). I feel like there are 2 types of owner. Ones that rent them out, and one's that don't. Not ones that rent them out, then let them be empty when rents threaten to fall.
I think we're basically agreeing. All I'm saying is that it's much easier for newbies to be "present" when using a tool that seems dangerous.

Windows approach: Print even pages first, ask the user to move the printed pages back to the printer and then print the odd pages later. The result is ready to be read.

In Mac you need to print first one side, move the pages manually, print the other side. But you have to remember to add an extra page if the page count is odd, have caution if an app tries to be intelligent and sort the pages in a different way...

In Windows all those calculations are done by the system. It is easy! Just print and follow instructions. In Mac is painful.

This has been the case for about two decades now. I genuinely don't know how people who make a median income are surviving in the country.
This isn't just an American problem. It will happen to any system that exists for a long period of time.

The solution is to have an upper limit for candidate age, lets say 60, and an upper limit to voting age, lets say 65.

There is already a lower limit for voting, we should have and lower limit for candidate age as well, lets say 30.
The statement: “Fannie and Freddie ignore much of what borrowers owe, allowing them to qualify for huge mortgages.” I honestly don’t see anything wrong in that per se. If you have a large and sufficient source of income to service both debts why wouldn’t they?

My country (the UK) still hasn't recovered it's GDP per capita of 2007, 16 years and counting. It didn't help that our banks were heavily exposed to those financial instruments that covered US housing and the subsequent crash.

>Here’s out it works: Mortgage lenders have typically preferred that buyers have a total debt-to-income ratio less than 36%—meaning that monthly debt payments shouldn’t exceed 36% of one’s income.

Surely there could be a hard upper limit, though IIRC it's pretty normal for people in the London and South East area to be paying 40-50% of their income on housing.
Dish washers clean dishes. If they aren't doing so for you, you're doing something wrong. I have never rinsed dishes. The only time something comes out dirty is if it's an oven pan that has something fiercly burned to it, or a pot of milk or something that I burned.

I actually think it's a good browser, certainly better than Chrome (too bloated) or Firefox (too buggy). I'll never understand HNs relentless hatred for all things MS.

> In general, MPSC queues are super fast and there's no real reason to prefer a locked queue.

There's one significant advantage that a locked vector or deque has over MPSC/MPMC queues: the consumers can dequeue all messages in a single operation by locking the vector, swapping it with an empty vector (typically, that's just 3 words), and locking it again. That's such a simple operation that it will typically be as fast or even faster than a single pop-one-message operation in an MPSC/MPMP. Similarly, if the vector is empty, a producer can push any number of messages in a single, constant-time operation.

I can see that point but I think in general the average American will not have a large and sufficient source of income. The article mentions how these firms are slowly raising the debt-to-income ratio to >50%. That's not because they're being nice - it's because they can trap more people into taking out enormous loans.
