If anyone cares: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_foot

but be warned not so nice pictures

Also known as:

> immersion foot syndrome[6] and as a nonfreezing cold injury (NFCI)

quote of cause:

> It can occur in temperatures up to 16 °C (61 °F) and within as little as 13 hours. Exposure to these environmental conditions causes deterioration and destruction of the capillaries and leads to damage of the surrounding flesh.[7] Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) has long been regarded as a contributory cause. Unsanitary, cold, and wet conditions can also cause trench foot.[8]

Idk. how warm it was there, but looking at other clothes worn probably not ~<16C, additionally even if the mud is that cold as long as you take brakes to warm up your feed e.g. in the mid day sun and don't walk through the night it still would be very unlikely. Then not having to walk in the same wet boots you have been wearing (wet) since weeks also helps.

And even if some one got NFCI it likely was only a case which comparable with what people had in WW1 was quite harmless. I.e. not really what people think about when mentioning trench foot (and knowing what it's about).

So all in all misleading and in a very intentional and knowing manner.
USB-C EarPods
The only new Apple product announced today that I care about.
New iPhone threads make me laugh. I could never imagine replacing a one year old laptop/PC just because it had a new port. Especially if I had a bunch of cables for the old port anyway.
GitHub Actions is the same as everything else. It doesn't work any better or worse. But the UI is clunkier, you can do less with it than other systems, it lacked important features forever (still does). The only reason you think it's significantly better is psychological.

The "market" of actions is better than competitors because the incumbent gets an advantage, and it trades on the idea of a generic executable as a 3rd party plugin, unlike other systems that try to force you into a particular language or paradigm. But other systems do this too.
Neat! I hadn't heard about that capability. That definitely makes things a lot easier.
I appreciate your opinion and although I disagree, I'm curious about how you handle talking to reports about their careers, the work they've been doing, progress on their goals, problems they are encountering, etc.?
Pro is 120Hz
+1 for Stamina, I use this app for apnea training for surfing. Wim Hof also produces a similar calming feeling, there are some good guided Wim Hof videos on youtube that are easy to follow.
Then you really haven't done anything about them using your data for training, have you?
"In sky" is a weird way to describe something that's clearly "on the ground."
The last power adapters and cables bundled with iPhones already had USB C connection.
Sort of related is the antitrust trial against Google just started. And, yes this is the way to stop this bs because of Google is (correctly) called a monopoly and (hopefully) broken up, then AdSense, Gmail, YouTube, Search and all the rest become separate entities and cannot easily share data under one umbrella. Probably also breaks the creepy stalker advertising model too
Is this really news? I'm pretty sure Google and Meta have been doing this for years. You agreed to it when you signed the ToS.
And so, microservices and kubernetes were thrust upon the unsuspecting world.
The land with cattle on are the most productive, as they get quite a compliment of natural fertilizer from the cattle. I would say cattle do not spoil the land, but improve it. This can't help but be the case, given the way grass responds to being eaten.

Additionally, once the grazers improve grass life, the water-table improves. The worst lakes in our area are surrounded by fertilized annual crops. Their water is polluted with nitrogen fertilizers and are very poor quality, with blue-green algae blooms, and as a result are not swimmable. My friend lost a dog to such a lake.

The land with active grazers in contrast, is very good at preventing this problem. The best lake for 200km around me is surrounded by grass-fed cattle operations, and there is absolutely no problem with algae blooms.

I think a central problem of our time is that educated elites are detached from reality, not seeing things like what I mention above, and so are acting upon their false perceptions, causing great harms as a result. The Apple announcement today about leather acts to confirm my suspicions about this.
I probably wouldn't recommend switching to the gold standard but I don't think the idea is "weird" or "no policy".

- People ran productive economies for hundreds (thousands?) of years on the Gold standard and it worked.

- It's credibly neutral and no one gets the exorbitant privilege of printing money.

- The supply expands randomly when new deposits are found but this actually works pretty well. As the economy grows we get better at finding gold so prices stay relatively flat in real terms.

- On a gold standard people will waste real resources trying to extract gold to sit in a vault but people waste real resources trying to get printed money too.
Did the Game Porting Toolkit[1] and the Unity integrations not meet that last need? If not, where have they fallen short?

Legitimately asking. I'm not up to speed on the subject.

Do you think people don't copy every post off HN and feed it to AI?

At some point things turn from you can avoid to they are ever present.

Kind of like avoiding cameras and license plate readers, you going to lock yourself in a hole and avoid people?
> How do you curate a general purpose model's dataset without throwing the baby out with the bathwater

Time, money, and human work. The pruning process needs focused input from experts other than ML researchers and data scientists.
Someone’s going to break the system, “install” random games 1,000-1,000,000 times, and Unity’s going to have to salvage some metrics and defend their accuracy in court and public.
Where "compliant" is defined to mean "does the minimum required by the USB spec and thus is legally allowed to carry the USB logo and call itself a USB cable".
I love achievements because when crafted well, they give me a bunch of artificial challenges to strive for.

To be honest, I’m actually not sure I understand the “I get gaming but I don’t get achievements.” Achievements are just another scoring system.
Would you mind to share all your PC HW (mobo, casing, cooling, etc) for this dual GPU configuration? Thanks.
At least they have to ask these days, before phones added more security they didn't bother with getting permission.
You should google the word “intentionally”, you’re using it incorrectly.

The unfounded assumption that I was challenging was the existence of trolley problem solvers being deliberately written. Nobody is doing that.
> This was in 1952... sightings of Elvis being alive.

Remarkably, rumors of Elvis being alive persisted until 1977!
There are some caveats to the BP measurement on the Galaxy watch, I'm not too surprised Apple isn't quite ready to implement it with similar requirements. They're probably holding out until it can be an "it just works" feature.
I'd actually like to see how to do that. It would be cool to do it.
Now if they can put back a jack port...
Maybe they shouldn't? What was ever to stop someone else from writing one for you?
> No more syncing with the phone - I am using the phone itself.

That sounds about as productive as the never ending stream of “I tried switching to an iPad for dev” blogs
We didn't build our games on a platform that required royalties. And when the tools we did use had unexpected cost increases, like Macromedia Flash Communication Server, we built our own to replace them. When the advertising model became untenable, we switched to downloadable purchases and a subscription model.

Unexpected changes to supply chain happen. Cost of goods go up, or sometimes even disappear altogether. That's business. It's an absolute punch in the throat that Unity has decided to apply these fees retroactively and with so little advance notice, but the onus is on the game developers to adapt and change their models to the new reality.

There seems to be plenty of outrage without me, so I don't understand why you seem so adamant for me to be sympathetic to businesses that are only profitable with the charity of another company. There's more than enough room for us to have different perspectives.

What's ridiculous is that you seem to think that there's only one right answer or reaction to this, and that it just happens to be yours.

4-7-8 breathing has origins in Pranayama FWIU?

"Effects of sleep deprivation and 4-7-8 breathing control on heart rate variability, blood pressure, blood glucose, and endothelial function in healthy young adults" (2022) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9277512/ https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C47&q=Eff...

Based on the wikipedia article, macroscopic laser cooling is largely used for cooling gases.

Insofar as I'm aware, laser cooling is always used as the final stage of gas cooling, on top of more standard methods, because there are more efficient methods to go from e.g. room temperature to cryogenic temperatures, and cryogenic to near-absolute-zero temperatures and so on. The method in the article, as I understand it, is meant specifically to address the cooling that's typically done with e.g. liquid nitrogen and liquid helium, not necessarily what's done below Helium-4's condensation temperature. The article is definitely too vague to know if thermionic cooling addresses a Helium-3 stage or not.

I didn't say it will treat it though? I said if you're sick, you need time to rest.
The best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make money off the next financial crisis.
I still play Threes! to this day, still haven't been able to get a 6000 card even after all these years.

I don't think there's a mobile game out there that has given me more entertainment.
I use it for backing up and restoring my phone to disk. It takes forever with these big drives so transfer rate is really nice.

I don’t do it frequently, but when I do I want it to take as short a time as possible.
Granting someone excessive leeway is not the same as supporting their personal development - it's pretty much antithetical to that.

I mostly agree with what you're saying but I don't think it contradicts the original article.
> Notably, Adobe Creative Cloud requires you to check in every 30 days to validate licenses. I feel like it takes some work to come up with a DRM scheme for a development tool that is more onerous than Adobe's restrictions, but what do I know?

JetBrains license server is 48 or 72 hours and won’t even let you open the app in any way if you have no connection.

> phone and laptop batteries being significantly degraded after 2-5 years

Which used to be useful lifetime of tech. We should be kinda gracious that we can now have laptops and phones that last nearly a decade (also kinda disappointing because progress slowed down).

> Some internal combustion vehicles are kept running for several decades

only in places where attention for safety is a joke. other than collectible cars (which btw are now rapidly converted into BEV) these cars are public hazard and would fail yearly safety checks in all progressive countries.

> many replacement parts remaining available

Thats a function of how popular car was. Tesla's parts are already one of the cheapest, there are tons of super specialised mods purely because they are manufacturing millions of cars per year.

> software locks

other than disabling high voltage charging due to safety (which I agree might be a bit much but there for a reason - might be even regulatory) - can you list more examples?

Tesla salvage market is wild. Crashed Teslas by battery salvagers are snapped in auctions by hundreds of participants (in my small country) just purely to use their battery.

> planned obsolescence built in

pop media propaganda. we are at a peak of electronics recycling. companies routinely tout using 100% recycled materials. if you don't plan for obsolescence you are basically planning for pollution.
Is the rise of AI the best argument for universal basic income?
> Steam, Steam sales, and constantly updated games were the fixes to piracy.

Steam is a DRM platform.
Jack, home button, small screen. It's rare that I prefer an old device today, but here it is, the SE1 is still the best iPhone.
> Apple's continued focus on gaming image quality is weird (ray tracing?)

Guessing it’s important for an eventual vision pro integration
All of that sounds like something that could happen annually.
So a subreddit could band together and bankrupt a developer by buying their games and scripting an uninstall/reinstall process.
Of course it's perfectly legal.

It's the whole reason radio was invented.

If it were illegal, AM crystal radios would also have to be illegal. That's where radio all started.

Also, your phone harvests RF energy every time you charge it wirelessly with a Qi charger.

Lots of implanted devices are powered this way too
Nope, it runs in machine mode (I've ported it) - the S does stand for Supervisor, but I guess that's because it supervises the system
I disagree. In my experience of having both of these for a number of years I never had to replace a USB-C cable because it was broken. I had to replace the lighting cable more than I can count.
Sure but the problem with gdscript is not that it's an abstraction or a high level language. It's that it's a weird dsl that isn't even really good at making games. I don't mind DSLs when they actually enhance the domain they are created for, but in this case having a game engine language not having interfaces or traits is weird...
I’m happy to cite the studies. Certainly the people did consume more than they exercised, but the results were pretty universal. I’d like to think I was special, but likely just the same as others. When I was in my 20’s and 30’s, diet and exercise worked. Now that I’m in my 40’s… not so much. There seems to be more benefit than just weight loss. Cardiovascular health dramatically improves. My blood pressure is now normal. My brain seems to function better, as if I were 25 again. Alcohol doesn’t seem to have much lure any more. I may drink 3 drinks a week, compared to 10 prior, and now it’s just to be social. I could drink a non-alcoholic beer, and it would have virtually the same impact - pleasure wise.
I think there are two use cases for search engine, to find an answer and to find a site. ChatGPT is good for the former and useless for the latter. Google is okay at the former and good at the latter (but getting worse). Big advantage of Google is that there are sources for more detail.

For example, I'm looking at sleeping pads for camping. If I type "sleeping pad" in ChatGPT, it tells me what a sleeping pad is. If I type it into Google, it lists products, places to buy them, and some reviews. If I type "best sleeping pads", ChatGPT gives me a list but without details or sources. If I type into Google, I get a list of reviews which I have to read but has context.
I think you should talk to a professional therapist.

> I make decent to good money (though I don't think most people on HN would agree lol)

Actually, HN might. HN is not exactly high compensation chasing.
The article says "Your Gmail and Instagram are training AI.", emphasis on the "your". Of course I can't do anything about someone else distributing data I gave them.
I'd love one for the airport, so I didn't have to trust that the public charging points weren't hacking my machines on behalf of the local government or criminal syndicate or whatever.
I think the author was a part of US Digital Service, which works to modernize government systems. Seems like fascinating and frustrating work.
I was hoping they would move to SCSI. I understand it would change the dimensions somewhat, but it's ridiculous that in 2023 I cannot connect my iPhone to my Quadra 800.
Rumour has it Google are going to introduce a desktop mode with the Pixel 8. In the mean time there's Samsung DeX, Motorola Ready For, and Huawei Easy Projection. If it has desktop mode I'll be getting the Pixel 8, if not the Samsung Galaxy S22. Pair it with a Quadlock Mag Case and the battery pack attachment and you just have one cable going from your phone to your AR glasses and you can quickly and easily swap battery packs when needed.

You can do dev work using the Termux terminal and online VSCode/Codespaces/CodeCatalyst or someone recently (like just this week I think) ported a native version of VSCode to the Play store.
That seems like a great approach for Netflix and investing in a resilient, redundant Tier 0 service like that was likely worth it there

Most orgs don't operate on that scale though and resources would likely be better spent elsewhere

> Microservices is very intertwined with how your engineering teams are built.

I wish more people understood this. Microservices are much more about scaling your organization than about scaling technology. At a certain size, teams can't collaborate effectively enough and splitting out different services for each team makes a lot of sense
yes, but you do have to put it somewhere that normal load/stores can reach it, which probably means it's copied to DRAM
Compile time regular expression in C++
This actually differs from one jurisdiction to another, that is, some jurisdictions do not permit publication of correspondence without the consent of the sender. Use of your email for AI training therefore may therefore be open to legal challenge. You know how legal challenges start? By someone feeling that there is a problem.

In any event, as the other poster mentioned, your original post claimed “You can…” and now you are moving to “You can’t” out of an apparent relish for being contrarian. This is not good-faith discussion on your part.
Hey Sean! I don’t have a clue who you are, but I wanted to say hello with everyone else! Have a good week!
Sounds like you're late to the party. AI "services" are the cool new internet scams. Web3 is a dead buzzword now, bud
I have and that's the thing. Every webserver I'm aware of runs in the foreground unlike TSRs and PacketDrivers. I'm looking for a webserver that runs in the background.
You don't own pictures of yourself taken by other people.
If they are training on inbound e-mails from senders without Google accounts residing in or present at the time of sending in two-party consent states, they are likely in violation of the telephone call recording laws of those states.
Aluminum unfortunately is incompatible with wireless charging. While I would forgo the latter for the former, Apple seems to think the market won’t. So we're stuck with the glass sandwich. The alternative would be plastic, which Apple doesn't want to do anymore either.
Does anyone have any suggestions for what to do with amateur radio astronomy? I recently looked into this a bit and came to the conclusion that to do anything actually interesting would require rather substantial investment in a big dish and having a place in the middle of nowhere away from interference. I had a hard time getting a list of interesting things you could do with more modest investments. Looking into Radio Jove and the Itty Bitty Telescope seemed like they would just be educational projects that wouldn't yield fruitful, long-term projects. Most projects seemed like just listening/watching to the Sun and Jupiter for various emission pulses, which seems like it would get boring pretty quickly after the initial learning exercise.

Although the more interesting of the two, radio astronomy, for the amateur, seemed like it wouldn't yield as interesting results as visible light astronomy.
drying celery is one of my favorite things to dry, dry it, grind it, and use it for things like soups, or dressings, or even popcorn. it adds a good flavor to a lot of things.
>Am I anywhere close?

It's close, but since the services are much simpler you don't run into the problem of needing an older of magnitude of more lines to draw a triangle.
That might have a chance of happening with a search engine not built by an advertising company.
Ok, and your point is?
No details on that USB3 external storage. Any specifics? Can I -for example- attach an USB3 NVMe enclosure (RTL9210B) and transfer (move) photos / videos from the internal storage?

That's one of the few remaining reasons for carrying around a laptop when going on vacations with family (to dump photos from the phones when they fill up).
Is it ever ok to cause a service to go down in real time to possibly save 100M/year? Especially when your service going down leads to lots of embarassing press?
Interesting timing.

Wasn't the license change on terraform supposed to avoid exactly this?

Seems like this is getting uglier and uglier for HashiCorp. Not only it sparked a fork but it didn't keep big cloud from competing on the hosted use case
Handwriting is one of the easiest methods by which you can practice fine motor skills and manual dexterity.

Also, I really enjoy watching a thought literally flow out of my body onto a page. There is something very disconnected about pressing keys on a keyboard to see the words appear on a screen -- sometimes I find myself in a state of flow on a computer where it all seems to 'click', but contrast that with handwriting and I can get right into flow the instant graphite or ink meets paper.
this might be unique to your experience.

I can't say the same about my own a decade ago. it was due to the employer I was with at the time. they valued "attendance" and "billable hours" way more than quality or even meeting deadlines, let alone talking tech execution with a product manager

It's sad what happened at Huy Fong. For years they got fresh peppers from a nearby farm. Then they blew up that relationship, perhaps because they decided they could get cheaper peppers from Mexico.

Now the original farm still happens to be growing plenty of peppers, while drought in the southwest US and Mexico is making it very difficult to source them elsewhere. Given climate change, there's no telling how long that drought will last.

Let's say a French company would offer the same service in the US, swearing no data would be ever siphoned out of the US and no French intelligence service would be allowed to review the data. Would you be comfortable with your patient records being stored there or the business secrets of US companies?

Do you believe Microsoft can actually make the same promises and keep them? You don't have to answer the last question, of course, but please think about it. It doesn't matter where the LLM is located but who controls it and who holds the resulting data.
The big studios are mostly developing on Unreal, or their own in-house engines. The exception is companies targeting F2P / mobile games, but they're the ones who're going to be impacted by the pricing changes the most.
This is a good observation (and the username checks out), but I just want to point out there are issues with the Jargon File and its occasional projections of ESR's odd views on interpersonal issues. The "portrait of J Random Hacker", in addition to being outdated, has a lot of weird stuff. Look at the "Gender and Ethnicity" section for instance.
