I've had the exact opposite experience; from way back since the 4870 series was common to now with RX6000, AMD has been great for me with Linux. More systems than I can really count, Intel/AMD have been great - while Nvidia, not so much.

Most recently I've not used the 'auto' method of DPM (mentioned in that issue).

I've deliberately set this to 'manual' since at least picking up RX6000 for undervolting/overclocking. Perhaps this is part of why I've been so pleased.

I'm curious on the software levels you run - what distributions do you tend to prefer?

You can't just put wild animals behind a fence and expect them to live happily. Typically animals have had to be domesticated through generations of breeding before they can live in those conditions, and for certain animals, that just doesn't work for some reason.

As a seasoned web developer who has worked on multiple FAANG “.com” domains, I think you’re overstating the impact. Every big web shop already codes for market share, which means chrome, then hopefully has an iPhone they don’t allow to update to test in older versions of safari (sourcing them from eBay if necessary) to then litter their code with if safariBadVersionWhatevers. Smaller ones test it on their latest updated phone and then throw it over the wall, and call anything non-chrome best effort. To the extent that I’ve seen Firefox, supported it’s because the developers of the site personally use it.

Nothing about the safari monoculture on iphones makes people support Firefox because support is 100% a function of market share, and the monoculture actually prevents the Firefox engine from getting a sliver of market share on iOS.

The state right now isn’t “people code to web standards because safari forces them to” - its that they spend time % proportional to market %. That means code to chrome and then fix bugs in mobile safari. And even if chrome was wildly successful in getting iPhone users to switch and destroying safari marketshars there, reducing testing on safari, it doesn’t hurt Firefox. Testing on safari doesn’t help catch Firefox bugs because it’s a totally different engine.

I think this depends on who you are.

As a hobbyist programmer, I don't use the big providers like AWS and Google because they seem rather complex? Maybe it's not so bad if you're used to them.

I also like to make each project independent, as its own repo on GitHub. Ideally, a web app would be easy for anyone else to launch, as their their own independent web app, using a separate domain name, because I don't want to be responsible for their data.

(This is sort of the Sandstorm use case.)

"Cheaper than tap water" is an inane meaningless claim. Cheaper than tap water where? Tap water isn't one price, the price of fresh water is hyper local. I doubt this technology will make water cheaper even for most people living along a coast.

> From these tests, the researchers calculated that if each stage were scaled up to a square meter, it would produce up to 5 liters of drinking water per hour

So 1) They haven't yet tried this at the scale of one square meter. So this is a lab project that is nowhere close to commercialization but that doesn't stop them from making grand vague pronouncements about its potential. Classic MIT tbqh.

2) 5 liters per square meter per hour is trash. An average American uses a bit more than 300 liters of water a day, so you need 60 square meters of this to support one average American. So you'd need more than 5000 square kilometers of this to provide water to NYC. Does this sound like it's going to be cheaper than the tap water they already have?

I hadn't seen Oxia before but the idea, for their implementation, of making Zookeeper more like Bookkeeper was an interesting one.

What's nonsensical is your bad take. First and foremost, if workers say they're happier, you have no method of disputing that and every study that captures the employees perspective is literally saying the exact same thing. Find me some data that says humans want to work longer hours, we will all wait...

It also sounds like you're not familiar with simple ideas like Parkinson’s Law. Listen to yourself, you don't think people are fucking off at work? It's business hours and you're on hacker news not doing work, case and point.
This is cool!

I would ignore everyone who's repeating the same sort of standard startup advice or saying "blah blah doesn't xyz already do this". A lot of startup advice is bad / actively harmful, your thing is pretty good, and you should just do it if it's fun.

Because you're on HN, you're about to get a good bump. In a few days, that bump will go down, and you might start to feel sad! Ignore this sadness and keep pushing through. The time from when people first hear about a product and when they actually start using it can be like a few weeks to a month. If, in a few days, all the numbers are going down, know that this is how even successful products look after a product launch. (See the trough of sorrow) Keep going!

Keep shamefully posting it in places, consider a hacker news launch, or even putting up posters in high-foot-traffic areas (if you live in or close to a walkable area). I know social-media bad, but it's a pretty good place to reach out to folks on. My guess is making a little tiktok thing is not a bad idea.

If you've got cash to blow, consider ads. Lots of people will tell you ads are bad, because they "don't scale" or some other over-optimized thing. But if you just want people to see your thing, ads are a reasonable way to drive a little traffic and get a beginning user-base to experiment with.

Have fun! The design and explanation of the site is great!

Ask HN: How do you find and validate suppliers?
I need some custom steel fabrication done for a personal project. Local metal shops were way too expensive, so I tried Alibaba. I submitted an RFQ and got a couple dozen responses. Prices were anywhere from $200-$1000. They've all offered to send samples, but at a cost that makes it impractical to get more than one for my purposes.

This got me wondering: in the corporate world, how are suppliers found, chosen, vetted, etc? Does it make a difference if you're operating at startup scale (say Framework) vs FAANG scale? I'm not specifically wondering about metal work; curious about electronics too.
I agree. In the example case, I don't see why left-to-right or top-to-bottom would be more readable.

Sure, it is good most of the time, but operator precedence rules exist for a reason.

I don't want to read

2.chain(x => x * 2).chain(f)

instead of

f(2*x)

These patterns have their place for async programming, pure FP, streams and more.

They can also be a distraction.

E.g. the library introduces its own promise-unwrapping semantics and more.

I don't see the use for such a generic implementation, although I applaud the effort.
what in the... what is the point?? I've used Grafana many times and it's always, always a simple docker start -v, ..., and modifying some configs to get started. This tool is completely useless.
Interesting observation from the comment section:

It is important to note that they are using the UNECE Level 3 certification loophole which technically demands that the company takes responsibility, but sets the minimum intervention interval for the driver at zero seconds for the under 60km/h case. That means, as long as the car exits its autonomous mode before a crash, the driver is instantly fully responsible. It's level 2 in all but name.

If true, I’m not sure I’d feel comfortable using this feature. This is separate from the fact that the EQS line all look like beans.

A lot of contributors are going to feel like this if their patch doesn't get accepted immediately and the maintainer in this case was extremely respectful even though the offered patch had multiple major issues. Contributors shouldn't feel entitled to free tutoring.
It would be very surprising.

Mistral AI's github page has more information on their sliding window attention method to achieve this performance: https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-src

That's a shame. Do you tend towards the mobile side, by chance?

The vast majority of my experience has been with discrete (desktop) cards and very new kernels/mesa. It's been great, here - on a number of hardware configs.
Your analogy is not flawed, but your conclusion is.

It is a perfect analogy because you are practicing gun safety by locking the gun away. If someone that you are not expecting wanders into your home while you are sitting on the couch, such as a child, they will not suddenly have access to the firearm. This is exactly why you don't assume that you will never receive unsafe input in this situation.

> When I talk to young people who live in some generic suburb I can't help but feel depressed.

It's easy to hole up in your suburban home and never socialize, but I know a lot of people who live in dense cities and never leave their house unless absolutely necessary either.

Living in a suburb doesn't mean you're isolated from friends, as long as you live within a reasonable drive. It does mean everyone has to plan ahead and allocate a little more travel time, but that's not really a big deal when people are in their 30s with more obligations, work, and possibly kids.

Living in the suburbs actually creates a different set of opportunities because now you have more space and likely a yard, too. Cramped parties in someone's apartment are fun when you're in your 20s, but in my 30s it's much nicer to head to someone's backyard BBQ or house that comfortably holds 40 people inside. There's also room for kids to play, room for outdoor games, and other things that weren't happening at parties in my 20s.

If you're trying to project your exact current lifestyle on to suburban living then it's going to be disappointing. If you instead look at it from the perspective of being different rather than worse, you start to the possible upsides.
My idea was to build an app for someone, as you said is undergoing a rough patch and doesn't want to ask for donations, instead they want to take situations into their own hands. And supporters should be people around them, people in their community, their friends, friends of their friends, people who have a need for their services and want to help creators at the same time. By going hyper-local, I wanted to avoid strangers and fraudsters buying services as much as possible.

I think in the US cars can increase your time with friends and family. Many people are lucky to live within a 60 minute drive from close friends or family, but without access to a car those trips become an epic trek. This is especially the case for people as they age, have kids, have a tight schedule, etc.

Furthermore, I'd venture to propose that this is not merely the case in the US. My family in Mexico City often use public transportation for work, but frequently drive to visit each other on weekends because that's much easier.

The same can be said about heroin.
Wow! I have had nothing but amazing experiences with DK over the last 20 years, especially compared to everyone else. Maybe it has to do with being in Canada, though. The DK warehouse is just across the border and when you order DDP I think they bring your stuff over by truck and then distribute it. Have not once ever had a surprise customs charge from them, while other suppliers have all screwed me in one way or another (lol always great when one order gets split into three boxes and UPS charges brokerage fees separately on each one)

> It's safe to say 32 hours of work does not produce more than 40 hours.

This is too simple. 32 hours of huge output may produce more than 40 hours of light output. If the machine/human output is a constant, then sure you’re correct. But that’s not true. And that’s my point. It’s relative and fluid. It’s relative to the work, the individual, the health of the individual, the weather that day, and on and on.
Can't agree more on that one :)
The thing about living close to friends is that it's not as much work to meet. Having to travel for half an hour is already a lot since it might not be worth it to meet spontaneously, it is easier to develop friendships to someone close by.

My computer takes about 45 seconds to start, which isn't terrible, but when I run a Windows XP VM on a quarter of the CPU cores I'm reminded of how long those 45 seconds are.

Even without the stupid 20 seconds of firmware I can't do anything about, XP shows me an interactive desktop in half the time Linux does. Windows 7 is just as fast, and just as fully-featured as my desktop Linux install. Windows 11 still boots faster (and more reliably) than Linux despite the overhead of Windows Defender and drive signature checking.

I don't need 0.3 seconds of boot time on my desktop, but something a bit faster would be nice. I think my machine is so slow by the death of a thousand services all starting at boot.
I think you need to do the opposite. The actual suppliers are the people with the cash to offer for services. You need to drive their traffic or you don’t have a business.

It's fine that the use of AI will be limited in TV and movies, but once it's good enough to actually write shows, a new AI-driven studio will do that, and Hollywood doesn't control distribution well enough to stop them.
Incorrect! I have worked on a high quality, wooden card table for fifteen years as a professional programmer. I am right-handed and there is no way there is room for a mouse or (as I actually use) a trackpad with a number pad on the keyboard.

Show HN: Using AI to bet on soccer games. $5,200 profit so far
In the last month, I whipped up and started testing this cool custom tool that uses AI to suggest good bets for live soccer games, mostly focusing on stuff like "+2.5 goals" and "+1.5 goals."

So far, it's been pretty spot-on about 80% of the time, and it's brought me over $5,000 in profits. But now, I am not sure about the next step:

- Was it just luck, or can I keep counting on this kind of success?

- Up to now, it's just been me using it. Should I think about selling access to others or just keep it to myself?

- What kind of legal stuff do I need to watch out for if I want to sell it? I'm guessing I've got to be real careful with how I pitch it.

Any thoughts or advice on this?
