Fascism is very specifically about about the subordination of all competing spheres to the State. "All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state."
Just to be clear: we use those exact English words in German. "Manager" in this case is just a euphemism although normally "Manager" is used exactly as in English (i.e. someone overseeing other people).
I was thinking about it but I would still need both. I'm not carrying around a DSLR on a typical walk.
The general issue I've found with people that take this mindset is that they focus so much on the 0.000000001% risks that they miss a lot of 1% risks. Which I would say is unscientific in terms of minimizing ones risks.
In terms of heat, 4 joules would heat 27g of water (the weight of a ballsack) by 0.14°C

It's interesting. I remember seeing the air duct on CPU in Dell servers a long time ago, I wonder if they still do that.

Also, it would have been nice for the author to try each duct individually, so as to better understand their role in temperature reduction on every devices. Would the CPU air duct indirectly help the GPU by reducing the box temperature overall?

Finally, I wish he also measured the impact on energy consumption.
While binarily-founded startups are not bad (in the words of the article, "one who can build (Technical) and one who can sell (Non-Technical)", the organization will be far better off of there are either three founders, or if both founders have technical ("build") and non-technical ("sell") skills

Selling is as much of a "build" activity (in some cases, even more so) as is the ability to "build" - the best product or service in the world that no one knows about, or that does not meet any [potential] customer needs is a pointless waste of time on the part of the creator(s)

If you have such a split set of founders as the article seems to imply you "should", when either decides they want to do something different, the company is very liekly to fizzle and die - a "pure" sales person is not going to be able to adequately vet and find a replacement technical partner; and a "pure" technical person is going to barely have a snowball's chance at a wiener roast of finding a reliable sales partner.

If, as founders, you do not have skills in multiple areas, you are practically guaranteed to fail

After you do your taxes on paper, do you put them in the postal box for the USPS to pick up? Do you also send other paper mail?

USPS has this great service called Informed Delivery that gives customers scanned images of all our mail. In fact, USPS has been scanning, OCRing and electronically processing mail for a long, long time. I would say that their elaborate surveillance capabilities are on a par with Google's in some respects. They absolutely have social graphs available for anyone who corresponds with anyone else through the mails.

Not to mention the rampant mail theft that's being reported these days; I'd say that email has gained an edge and is safer in most aspects than putting it all on paper, unless you're going to walk it into the IRS on foot.
I like the idea but I've not tried it, it just seems quite a bit more complicated than just accepting the need to be online.

I'm talking hobby projects here where my main problem is getting it to a usable state so that it works (for me) without quirks and actually solves my problem instead of being a proof of concept.

Assuming the data model is kinda boring I wonder if there's a way to leverage some "framework" to offload the syncing part, for a simple CRUD app. There should be no resolution strategies, it has like a users table, a posts table and a comments table (classic blog example), this should be easily abstractable, or not? But then most people are talking about Websites as frontends, I guess, which changes my current "I'm gonna write a Qt native client" idea.
Thanks for the book suggestion. I've been fascinated with the early study of climate change since I read Fire Weather.
Thanks, I did wonder how, given the pretty strict physics of... physics, they could be claiming that the iPhone is compliant at 5cm and not at 0cm!
Most people don't update every year, and when you start looking at replacing a 2+ year phone the camera updates alone are usually well worth it. The Pro is adding 3d video capture for the upcoming vision pro.

With that said, the smart phone of today is a solved problem. The industry has converged on a slab of glass form factor, and while it plays at the edges with foldable or flip phone styles they really aren't that popular. Most technology advances are evolutionary, to expect something else is unrealistic.

IMO, the most interesting thing from Apples presentation was the focus on gestures for the watch. When will the Vision Pro get small enough or the watch gain capability to project a screen is the question, because then we will have moved beyond the phone form factor.

The whole story and ideas put into Windows installing programs are a stupid joke. It's designed by project managers who have no idea what they are doing and no imagination and is executed by the cheapest least motivated programmers from South Asia Microsoft can possibly find.

A lot of people who do useful stuff for Windows try to stay away from as much of Microsoft's stuff as possible, and integrate it as little as possible with anything else coming from the system because it's just maddening how horrible everything there is.

You aren’t using fermenting lids??? I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone because your jars are going to explode.

I have 7 pepper ferments from my garden this year. My favorite is with some sweet onions and garlic added to the peppers. If the peppers are too hot you can use carrots. The best tops are not the ones with a water lock IMHO.
Counterpoint:

Humans have been incentivized to essentially be BS machines.

From low-quality blog posts to the highest-grossing marketing and everything in between (including many published books and scientific papers): BS makes enough money that it’s low-effort gives a decent ROI.

Of course an AI trained on a large human corpus is going to produce BS. It’s just doing what it learned.
I made an Android app in it, a collection of musical instruments to play. The engine was a joy to work in. Everything in its API is laid out neatly and easy to remember. The code-only experience fits me perfectly - instead of stringing together some static assets I can focus on procedural animations and fun dynamical behaviors. The result feels more alive, like what Bret Victor describes in "Stop drawing the dead fish" talk.

Using LÖVE on Android was also pretty effortless. I could fire up a mobile text editor and fix Lua bugs or tweak animation constants. Every desktop feature worked the same on the phone. I could even tweak the audio framework to get optimal latency values. I would never get the chance to tweak under the hood had I chosen some closed source engine.

Since then I've "graduated" to 3D with LÖVR. It is completely different code with the same philosophy of surface simplicity and ample room for growth.
If it takes a year or more to go from launch to first paying customer, what are you doing during that time?

Of course, you could be purposefully giving your product away while building the premium, paid-for features. I think that applies to some of these companies, and I'd be more curious about the time from launching that version to paid customers.
The iPhone 12 is a three year old device. I'm not sure what parade they'd be raining on.

Back in the day, UK debit cards were issued on distinct networks from credit cards - eg: Switch, Solo, and Maestro. Those cards weren't necessarily accepted in all the same places as credit cards, particularly internationally.

But over the past 10 years or so, those debit card networks have been phased out in the UK and almost universally replaced with Visa and Mastercard debit cards. As far as acceptance goes, these are pretty much 100% identical to using credit cards on those same networks.
Microwaves were used to heat up and reanimate frozen hamsters. You just obviously don’t do it at 1000W, unless you are planning on eating said hamsters..

But taking into account the amount of heat a gram of tissue can reasonably absorb, it doesn’t cause any biological change whatsoever.
I did many semi-popular libraries for this engine, it was my first introduction to Lua, which eventually gave me a job (not on gamedev - openresty). The community was helpful and welcoming.

I have not done gamedev in a while, finding the time is difficult with a growing family. But it still makes me happy when someone pings me about one of my libraries.

It's both. True privacy is having control over what others know about you. If you want them to know nothing, that's allowed: you can turn it off.
My advice would be to stay away from "business" advisors that work part-time and have a stake at the company. This is a recipe for disaster and I've seen it too many times. Just go to upwork (or similar platforms) and find well-rated experts for the topic you need and just pay. It's much cleaner and cheaper way. Otherwise you will end up with dead equity.

Capable co-founders are hard to find, what you should be looking for is previous experience (even if failed tbh) and persistence, it's really a marathon.

Regarding product - if you are an engineer with experience you probably have seen things, is there anything that you've seen that feels it can be a product. Start there and go to specialized forums, read, learn and ask. This is a good book too - https://www.momtestbook.com/
Not only that, it's also possible for current employees to get the short end of the stick after union negotiations, possibly leading to the end of their job after many years of employment.

I was not familiar with Lindy as a concept but even the author seems to contradict themselves, in one passage claiming to be taking an approach which relies on mature technology and then in the next passage talking about how great htmx is.

I think even by the authors stated definition, Go would not be considered Lindy.

The approach shown is clever and interesting though!
I don’t mind the HTMX abstraction of JS and XHR but blindly exposing DB schema seems lazy. Clients generally don’t need or want this exposure but the “API” certainly can be replaced by notional views in a lot of cases.
Sometimes unions will cut their nose to spite their face. In other words their demands may ultimately bring a company down (slowed innovation, resistance to change) but their directives are more immediate -higher wages, less work. These things are desirable for a worker but ultimately may doom the company. It’s not too different from not understanding balanced diets. Sure, some things taste better, are easier to prepare, but they may not be the best choice for long term health.

Unions in some other countries are less antagonistic )zero-sum)and more symbiotic (grow the pie).
Samsung did it with DeX; so now you have your mobile OS with mobile apps inside overlapping, dynamically sized windows.

... for a project done by a bunch of volunteers and young students likely having fun making little graphics without compensation, and with a name that involves a casual shortening of the key term ..... you expected "professionalism"

young students... and random volunteers... who aren't getting paid...

do you _really_ think that an expectation of "professionalism" is one that lines up well with the reality of the project?
Sure, and maybe you do mean that in agreement, but doesn't that go to my point that the colour isn't really as relevant as someone who thinks it's all a scam and anyone who thinks they like wine is an idiot believes?

And some are blends of both, but we'd call the result white or red according to what dominates. Champagne for example.
Perhaps because generating good white noise requires randomness without autocorrelation or detectable patterns.

How is this feature good for people that hold PYUSD?
Used to be that the US would just import scientists and engineers then develop stuff themselves. It'll be interesting in a few years to learn if this Arizona plant was just one head of the capitalist hydra and its success or failure didn't really matter all that much. I suspect that the US doesn't need to import technology in that manner to get good results; it never has in the past and I don't think that much has changed.

All the excitement over high end chips seems overblown. We appear to be talking about a couple of years R&D. Tactically interesting, it'll decide a lot of things in practice about who specialises in what. Strategically not that big an issue. The trade war manoeuvring is doomed to look silly; the US can't stop China and China couldn't stop the US anyone thought there was a real problem to solve.
> If that's what consequentionalists believe

The author's article essentially builds a strawman, calls that consequentialist logic, and proceeds to happily burn that strawman to sell an alternative horror. Also there's a Godwin point because why not.

You'll find no significant evidence of consequentialists advocating for family punishment ; even if the author's claim that it's effective was supported by more than his word.

Sun! It emits far more radiation than anything else and we don’t care about walking in sunlight.
And then if you’re curious to know more about ionizing radiation and the scale at which we absorb it and where it really becomes concerning, there’s an XKCD for that: https://xkcd.com/radiation/
Worry far more about the sun:
"Hence, a cell phone cannot transmit more than 0.125 Watts of energy to your head, while sunlight will transmit 43.8 W. This means that sunlight heats your head 350 times faster than a cell phone. In fact, since sunlight is a much higher frequency than cell phones, the sunlight energy is more dangerous (see Equation [1])."

The obvious answer is Wall Street brainrot:

Stable profits are worthless. (Forget the fact that, y'know, they keep the company alive, everyone paid, and everything that actually matters to 95% of people working fine.)

All that matters is growth. Growth is what gets CEOs praise from shareholders, bonuses from boards, and even-higher-paying CEO jobs elsewhere.

It differs by banks and countries, but e.g. my Dutch debit card only has an IBAN number on it, so anything set up to accept credit card numbers won't accept it.

Almost every online web shop here will accept debit cards, but it's through a Dutch specific payment mechanism (iDEAL).
Musk claims that the fleet was entering into Crimea, a territory where the access was not available, and he refused to turn it on [1,2], and that he never actually turned anything off.

Late to the party, but I believe Raku deserves a mention. I replaced most of my shell scripting with Raku. It offers a lot of features that help, one of the biggest wins being Grammars. They make parsing and transforming parsed data a breeze. There's a book full of oneliners[1] for many typical tasks - it's a little more verbose than Perl sometimes, but it's more consistent and predictable, which helped a lot in learning it.

Show HN: Adapt framework (alpha ver) – build privacy-by-design P2P applications
Announcing: ADAPT Framework ALPHA release and demo

ADAPT Framework is a developer toolkit for replacing a centralized web back end with a decentralized mesh of interconnected data nodes. ADAPT is an easy way to build non-custodial internet applications for document sharing, messaging, credential management, medical data sharing, and other similar use cases.

ADAPT enables developers to create data nodes that work identically on the front end and server side. All business logic that was traditionally placed into the back-end of an application can now be implemented by defining the behavior of individual nodes and interactions between them. The front-end nodes can store sensitive user data, while server-side nodes can be used to store encrypted backups and perform tasks (such as checking 2FA) that cannot be performed by the front end. In all cases, nodes possess their own, independent logic and policies, ensuring user safety and promoting trust.

ADAPT additionally supports seamless use of secure enclaves (currently, Amazon Nitro with others in the pipeline) to provide additional security on the server side. On the front-end, ADAPT runs as a WASM container inside the browser or a mobile application.

The framework is designed to be a go-to platform for building internet applications for which the existence of a centralized back end is a risk or a liability. For SaaS applications, ADAPT enables non-custodial data storage, ensuring that the data cannot be misused. In the Web3 context, ADAPT allows dApps to build their web back ends in a more decentralized way, avoiding the need to run a web server altogether. Potentially useful for web3 cryptocurrency wallets, ADAPT enables easy-to-implement multi-device workflows.

Our team has prepared introductory developer resources for the Alpha release. We have built a bare bones demo that implements end-to-end encrypted browser-based messaging with only 270 lines of code: https://github.com/adapt-toolkit/messenger-demo. This demo can be run in the browser or in a browser-based sandbox (see respective links in the README file). We are currently looking for early adopters and launch partners and happy to answer all your questions in our Discord.

Please note: ADAPT DOES NOT ISSUE ANY TOKENS OR GENERATE ANY OTHER TYPE OF FINANCIAL REWARD. If you are looking for airdrops, NFTs or to speculate on crypto, please go elsewhere.
I wouldn't be surprised if USB-C was the end-game for physical connectors, and the future was wireless. I'm honestly surprised Apple hasn't extended MagSafe (the iPhone version) with data support yet, their alignment makes it much for feasible there than with Qi.
