> yes everyone has their favorite tcl scripts for vivado or intel or whatever but none of them are transferrable to yosys irrespective of that fact that yosys supports tcl.

But still it is much easier to have one Tcl script with conditionals targeting all the tools than a myriad scripts in various language-of-the-week. Tcl is just good enough, and extremely "well known".
Probably because rabbit doesn’t have enough fat to actually make a decent burger. It’s not economical to ground.
This is so great to see - we really should be paying more attention to startups in this space.
Yeah well so did many other great movies for me: Jaws, Godfather, Star Wars, Alien, Its A Wonderful Life, numerous Disney animated features, etc etc but there's many of those that are timeless. But I do imagine as the quantity of content increases it becomes harder for timeless features to break through. Probably doesn't help that the streaming services tend to split the cultural catalog in a way that video stores never had to suffer from.
Why does the 40 hour work week sound like hell to you? Home life bad? :p Or is it the union thing? (I can understand that bit; fuck HOAs.)
Agreed, but the argument for causing damage still requires a human actor to execute GPT-4's advice. Should we be censoring LLMs just because we are offended by the output or find it misleading? There is plenty of misinformation on the internet already; in my opinion, the power to deal damage is still in the hands of humans.

How taxes should ever work for reducing problems?
Epic already did this at the height of fortnite's popularity, by using a "fortnight installer" app that you had to get from outside the play store. Can't remember why they backtracked, or why they didn't offer store/sideload versions at the same time.

Google even took steps to prevent people from installing malware pretending to be fortnite, and steered them to the official installer. Not out of the goodness of their heart, TBF.
It makes sense now that I think about it.

We usually base our intuition on the older and simpler branch predictors of 10-20 years ago, where the location of the branch and it's taken/not-taken history are tightly coupled. In those, a never-taken branch is either unknown (which counts as a non-taken prediction) or the branch is known and correctly predicted.

But modern branch predictors decoupled the branch location and branch history. They hash the sequence of the last few branches and use that hash to index into the branch history table, allowing the a single branch to have multiple different histories depending on the control flow leading up to it.
That significantly improves branch prediction for hot code, the predictor can now track things like a branch that will always be taken during the first iteration of a loop, or a branch will always be taken if the function was called from one location but not another. They can even track the relationships between indirect branches in vtables.

But Hash collisions are expected, especially outside of hot code. So it should be quite common for never-taken branches in warmish code to be known, but predicted as taken due to a collision.
I, uhhhh.....I would like to know what TFA is meant to stand for, because I assume it is not "the ſucking article", but that was my first thought. Maybe "featured"? Google is only giving me "Teach For America" or "Trade Facilitation Agreement".
It's pretty obvious why we don't eat goat tho: it tastes really bad.
In the UK, lamb is pretty much an everyday meat (well - every week...) but goat is regarded as pretty exotic - common mainly in Afro-caribbean takeaways or restaurants. (I'm from the South-East so this might not be true in other regions).

Mutton - I don't recall seeing very often at all in butcher shops. As the meat in takeway - it's more common but sometimes the terminology isn't precise. Some Indian takeaways use the word "meat" when they mean something sheep-based. And "mutton" sometimes means "goat" (and vice-versa). And "mutton" sometimes is just lamb...
Yeah I've used that feature on my wife's mac, it's pretty cool.
Why does ANYONE eat mutton?

The 1st world diet really does reflect the primitive primate species we are...
No. At least on Android there is no system shortcut that takes you directly to the voice feature yet. For now, I'm using the widget.
Ask HN: What popular apps aren't ready for macOS Sonoma?
Why do you say this? I've eaten it and enjoyed it and it's commonly eaten in many places.
If you store music locally or on Google Drive then give https://musicsync.ashishb.net/ a try
I haven’t tried PlayCanvas yet, but it looks great. I think the primary difference is that this engine is a learning tool primarily, and doesn’t have any intention to compete with bigger name engines.
I noticed this for the first time today, despite running the betas on my laptop (you need to connect to Sonoma from Sonoma, and I don't upgrade across the board).

I suspect it's the underlying tech that streams macOS into the Vision Pro. The "High Performance" mode lets you select 1 or 2 virtual displays, and always blacks out the host machine completely.
I didn't claim the mind's processes were acausal; simply that they could not be reduced to cause, to the exclusion of anything else. If they can be so reduced, rational argument is impossible, because causal processes are not the same as rational argument. When I punch "2 + 2 =" into a calculator and the screen says "4", it's a causal process. When my kid grasps that 2 + 2 = 4, it's different. His mind has reasoned its way to this truth; it is not simply that the brain-state "2 + 2" has produced the further brain-state "4". If that were the case, he (and we) could never know that 2+2 resulted in 4; it could just as easily produce 5, or a green rabbit, or whatever else our mind had been caused to think at any given time.

If reasoning has any validity, it cannot be reduced to causal processes.

Therefore any argument -- any attempt at reasoning -- that claims that the mind's processes are merely causal undermines itself in the very process of being made.
I’m actively shipping one now. Parts of it need to be super polished. Others, less so.
Do gyros count? It's lamb meat. It's one of the best-tasting meats ever, imo.
My favorites are HILETGO, KeeYees, AITRIP, "Oi ya gai", Treedix, and Gikfun.

I bought products from all these Amazon vendors last year, hilariously they're still around.
> Why does the 40 hour work week sound like hell to you?

I value flexibility more than most people. Today, weather was great, so I took a mid-day break for a hike to walk off a cold. (WFH. I feel fine but my nose is still runny.) That doesn’t work for most people, but it does for me in the right culture when supported by like-minded colleagues.

If I’m passionate about something I’m working on, I also want to be able to huddle together like-minded folks and burn the midnight oil. It’s unhealthy if it becomes a habit (or expectation). But I’ve found it incredibly rewarding, and not just financially.

Importantly, however, I’m not saying that model is hellish. It’s just hell for me. If someone wanted that, I’d support them in having a place where they can find it.

> is it the union thing?

I personally think unions have failed American workers. Their aims are laudable and their supporters’ hearts in the right place. But the track record—in terms of earnings delivered to unionised workers as well as public perceptions—is poor. At worst, it distracts from meaningful and systemic reforms, like giving workers a Board seat or raising the minimum wage.

That said, while I’d probably vote against unionising, I wouldn’t shun a company for having one.
I wonder what forests looked back then. Trees going through and on piles of dead trees?
The numbers thrown out for this (~$60/kWh) are comparable in price to what LFP might cost in the next couple of years, the C rates for these are much lower (C/2).
You mention classical models but Bayesian deep learning is a thing too. One can even retrofit existing DL models to obtain uncertainty estimates, at the expense of increasing (possibly doubling) the number of model parameters.

The quality of the uncertainty estimates is a question though.
That's a useful distinction in these discussions. Learning methods that work for motivated individual learners often cannot be applied to large groups of students who are required to study a subject.

I personally think that institutionalized education will have to adopt and adapt to AI, but it won't be easy.
I noticed something similar 10 years ago - large XML documents simply don't render in Chrome but Firefox had no issues. Surprised this is still the case that Chrome hasn't bothered to resolve.
This is unconstitutional and will be struck down as such.
Still a lot of hold overs from being a native app :P

Good find though!
In a year or two somebody would realize that YT is for videos and it doesn't make sense to keep music and podcasts there, and a new Google service is born... It's the circle of life.
I think you should reconsider this unfortunate comparison. Volunteering for the SS and exterminating civilians is nothing like "selling foodstuffs" or just "doing what you could to survive".
Ask HN: What are people doing with all the GPGPUs?
I just realized that I do not understand the current "AI" craze. I understand OpenAI and ChatGPT. Amazing product, provides value, clear room for further improvement. Fine.

What is everyone else trying to do? Why are they buying whole 1000 GPGPU clusters? Are all of them each trying to train their own LLMs from scratch? If not, what are they trying to do?
Perhaps a little cynical of me but my first thought was how the timing of this new tax coincides with the upcoming rush of Californians buying regular sized mags again [0].

Yes, the Homebrew message does seem unnecessarily hostile. Not everyone can afford to buy a brand new computer every year.
How much is doubled?

> The federal government already taxes the sale of guns and ammunition at either 10% or 11%, depending on the type of gun. The law Newsom signed adds another 11% tax on top of that

It went from 10% to 20% - which seems significant, your $500 shotgun now costs $600

I wonder if that’ll have any impact on shifting price points for firearms? Paying an extra hundred bucks in taxes feels like a lot to me. My guess is it would push people into a lower price point bracket across the board? e.g. if I would normally be looking for a $500 gun, I will now be looking for a $400 option?
Why can't they? They control the objc runtime, and IIRC the way message passing works in that system requires throwing strings around with the involvement of the runtime.

This being entirely separate from using allowed APIs for unapproved reasons, after passing whatever review/scan is done.
It's a super interesting segment there are like millions details for the system to work even if the basic product is the same you can have your own barcode and serial number label attached, you can personalize the packaging, you will have to translate the manual, the are entire microverticals that exist just between the no brand manufacturer and the guy flipping the product on a marketplace even before shipping takes it out of the factory you're already paying like four or more services provider, plus coordinators to make all that happen.
Do you think China and Russia aren't capitalistic in nature? They structure their markets very much like the West, because they end up having to do business with the West at some points.

Do you really think there isn't a better system than accepting that some other human out there is going to get more out of your work than you?

In nations with extreme abundance, it should be trivial to solve problems of homelessness and hunger. We have the means, but capitalism says "no, people must not be allowed to survive without working for others".

Why are we the only animal on Earth that pays others of its kind to survive and exist?

If capitalism cannot bring people up then its cancerous nature will naturally give way to unrest and change. Expecting me to know what that change would be, and what conditions would settle, is unreasonable.

Labor should be a choice, and you should get the vast majority of the benefit for it. Capitalism cannot offer such things. It has nothing to offer except exploitation. It rewards preying on your fellow person and justifies everything with profits. Cancer incarnate.
Mutton/lamb is the most delicious of all non-fish meats.

I don't particularly love beef/chicken/pork but a sunday lamb roast with crispy potatoes and gravy - yum.

BUT - cooking lamb well is an art and takes alot of practice. You can't just go cook lamb any old way and think it will be delicious. If you want to learn how to cook lamb well then focus on slow cooking and slow roasting - and anticipate you won't really knock people out with it until you've practiced enough. Jamie Oliver has the best lamb roast recipes.

Lamb leg is extremely cheap at the moment in Australia - $10/KG - so I am practicing my lamb leg roasting skills.
Sandbox/firewall it.
It can breed a culture of micromanagement. "Employee can only work X hours, we need to extract as much value as possible."

Yes, micromanagement will go against actual performance, but that's not how many managers are tempted to see it.
I make an absolutely tidy mutton saag with mature spinach leaf and lots of cardamom and mustard. Make sure you get a really good colour on the mutton before you stew it.
In the UK, lamb is one of the "big 4". If you have a roast dinner it will be chicken, lamb, pork or beef (probably in that order of likelyhood). It's just another meat that you'd roast and slice and eat with gravy and veg.

I probably know more people who dislike pork than dislike lamb. I don't think many people really regard it as an especially strong flavour.
You are correct - that was an autocorrect mistake? I will update the post shortly.

But yes, I do find those little extra keys useful. Print Screen is great since I have it linked with scrot via dwm.
> real paper made from trees is still considered crucial to countless businesses and government systems globally, despite the environmental impact of producing it. For decades, computers, smartphones and tablets have provided an alternative.

Considering they have to pay 56% of their revenue to Amazon, how do you expect them to be able to afford locally manufactured products?
Almost certainly they would be fine, given some time. Is why they were willing to strong arm Amazon into changing terms on how they sell ebooks.

And you seem to be dodging my point? My assertion/wager/whatever is that the publishers actively want it so that Amazon has to have DRM on their devices and sales. Just as they want it on libraries lending. Do I /know/ this? No. That is why I worded it as something that would shock me.

I agree that my willingness to wager on this would go down as I extend it to my larger guess, that they also have terms covering things that Amazon publishes. That said, it lowers my willingness, but it does not seem beyond the pale.
I wondered if I were remembering correctly: an SGI O2 RIP for a huge HP inkjet poster printer.

An advertising agency had such a setup for in-house production. 1998.
Still charging full price for it though aint ya
You make a good point, but I think the parent point is true as well. You still have people actually producing work, unable to compete on these platforms where Amazon will literally make a copy of their product at a lower price.

This is the result of commoditizing 'starting a business' to the point of near-worthlessness in the bottom 50%+. Like you say, I don't value the businesses that simply re-sell re-labeled products without ever interacting with anything very much. But let's not confuse the 'spam' of the problem with the squashing of actual business that this is historically known to cause.
I’m fairly certain the native version of Scratch is just a browser with Scratch running in a web view. I’d also mention that WASM isn’t tied to a browser either (despite being called WebAssembly, it’s now widely used outside of browsers). You can in fact make native executables now from a WASM binary.
I don't know if it will work out well, but I think it is a brilliant idea.

Suppose 0.2 percent of tinderers will pay for the select membership. This group of people is the result of a filter.

Those people will feel special and they will get in contact with like-minded people.

Also chances are greater that these people really want to find a partner soon as opposed to just hang around on tinder.

Also the premise of visual attractiveness will tune down for some amount, because very attractive people will not 'need' that membership.
Right. But high quality interop does not require lock-in. You can have the same integrated experience without the intentional hampering of interfaces if you mix.
I'm aware of this (although thanks for taking the time to make a succinct explanation).

Thing is, I am not operating a business; as a consumer I just see that I am being charged a significant premium on the money I spend (and a smaller but non-trivial one on the cost of VAT administration up and down the chain). It's not clear to me why 'value added' needs to be taxed in the first place, as opposed to business profits or dividends.
> Despite how well this new approach has worked out, there's still one big limitation that remains: it's currently Windows only. However the official WebView2 roadmap lists macOS and Linux support on the way, so it looks like it should be possible to port this approach to both other desktop platforms in future.

I'd be wary of betting on roadmap features, even if well-intentioned you have no control over the dates/priorities.

If your primary customer is Windows, yay! But as a replacement for existing options it's not mature yet.
ROScribe v0.0.3: using GPT to create robotics project in ROS1 and ROS2
With ROScribe v0.0.3 released yesterday, you can now build your robotics project automatically in ROS2 as well as ROS1.

https://github.com/RoboCoachTechnologies/ROScribe

ROScribe uses GPT to ask you about the details of your robotic project, draws the RQT graph, generate the code for all ROS nodes, and writes the launch file and installation scripts. Here is a demo on how to use the tool:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2QaeelkReU

Release notes for v0.0.3:

Now ROScribe supports both ROS1 and ROS2.

Code generation for ROS2 uses rclpy instead of rospy

Installation scripts for ROS2 use setup.py and setup.cf instead of CMakeLists.txt

ROScribe is an open source project and we welcome you to contribute to this project.
yes, I want to install My apps, eg developed by me, on My devices, and have full access to all hardware feats, without fake obstacles and limitations
The negatives can't really be trusted, but if they say you've got it, you've got it.

The home tests are still useful, if for no other reason than because a lot of people cannot get a test at all, or can't get one unless they have symptoms.

My insurance company is like that. At one point in the last year I'd recently been with someone who tested positive two days later, and while I felt fine, I wanted a test before visiting a highly vulnerable relative and was told the test would be entirely out of pocket since I wasn't feeling sick. People who can't afford a PCR out of pocket can at least try several at home tests for some piece of mind.
I hate having to come up with class names, but I hate having to learn yet another layer of abstraction even more.

With all due respect this is an insult to those of us who have loyally purchased AMD for numerous years, trying our very best to do compute with days, nay weeks, of attempts.

Now 5 years too late we get told its suddenly their number one priority.

Too late. Not only has all goodwill gone, but it's in deep negative territory. Even 50% lower performance stacks like Intel / Apple are much more appealing than AMD will ever be at this stage.
Fucking good.

It's bullshit that you can only run Safari on iOS or that the App Store is the only store you can use.

Yes, I understand the security implications of a third-party browser having deeper integrations into the OS and potential battery life concerns.

I also don't care.

I want to run Firefox on my phone. The actual thing. With containers and extensions. Let Safari compete on the merits.

I want the choice of being able to pay for a great app or use its "good enough" open source equivalent outside of the App Store.

iOS is a fantastic operating system. iPhone and iPad are stellar hardware with brilliant physical UX. Apple Watch is leagues beyond anything else in its class. I will keep buying Apple stuff until I can't anymore.

But a monopoly on core system functions isn't necessary to keep that high bar high.
In my experience: when I had COVID symptoms and took one of these it was positive. So was my partner.

I think at the end of the day these aren't going to be perfect but if you combine it with a personal evaluation (do I feel sick, are people that were near me sick) it gives you better decision making than just playing dumb.

The common practice is that you butcher bulls at young age, but you keep cows for milk - you actually make much more money on milk than on meat.

With chickens it's even worse: males are killed immediately after hatching, because their meat is worth next to nothing. Females are kept for both eggs and meat.
Podcasts doesn't seem like something I would want to manage myself. An album I grab once and keep forever.
