> How did they go from second-life knockoffs to this?

Typically you do one MVP version and as soon as you've knocked that out, start working on a proper version, integrating feedback from the MVP as it comes in. I'm guessing they always wanted to have photorealism, but realized it'd take a while to get in place so they launched a quick version then got back to work.

Every new Pi model needs a bit of time for the Netboot firmware to be worked out. I would research the RPi5 before you bought it today.
HN doesn't have the prettiest, flashiest, most cutting-edge design. But so what? It loads quickly and, I have to admit, I do like the Craigslist-like aesthetic of HN.

Would having a more modern design make this site better? I doubt it.

that's no different than what we have no. we don't need everyone going to college especially to major in history of tampons type degrees.

the end goal is for loan companies to decline people who won't be able to repay their loans given the expected value of their degrees. (Your future earning potential is the collatoral for your loan).

Hate groups are fantastic at co-opting previously reasonable ideas. Some examples:

- Woke

- The OK hand symbol

- Gay - turning a word that literally means "Happy" into a slur

- The Punisher symbol - He is not a police-adjacent vigilante.

- The US Flag (stars and bars, to be specific)

So, yeah, as a fellow older HNer, it's hard to see these kinds of re-defining ideals we once ascribed to. But it's happening, and that reality is the one we have to live in.
There are a for proft open access journals. In most open access journals, the payment system is just reversed. The author/s pay a huge amount of money as publication fees (usually a couple of thousands) instead of readers (or their institutions) paying for the article or the journal subscription.
It is a fun "emoji-native" take, but I think "fun" almost sells it short.

It feels like there really is something special about how the combination of all the little things make it more than the sum of its parts. On a language level therews a stack + absence of operator overloading + simple array model to make it easier to reason about. On an interface level there is word-based input with autoformatting, and a zero-install web-based interface with reminder tooltips and clickable links.

The examples are a lot easier for me to read through than with other array languages I've tried. And I've seriously tried both Dyalog and BQN! I think they're brilliant, but something just refuses to click in my brain for them.
I listened to the entire hour when this got posted earlier today. I still have no idea what the point is here. Does anyone have a better use case for this technology than was presented in this video?
I think we are agreeing on Tao.
And on postmodernism. I don't know enough to have an opinion.

I asked GPT 4 and it seemed GPT 4 also agrees Heidegger was NOT a postmodernist.

"No, Martin Heidegger was not considered a postmodernist. He was a German philosopher who is generally associated with phenomenology and existentialism, and he is best known for his work "Being and Time" ("Sein und Zeit"), published in 1927. His philosophical work laid some of the groundwork for postmodern thought, but he himself belonged to an earlier philosophical period.

Postmodernism as a philosophical movement didn’t emerge until after World War II, and it is characterized by skepticism toward grand narratives, doubt about objective reality, and a focus on the relative and the subjective. Heidegger's work, particularly his exploration of "being," language, and hermeneutics, influenced many postmodern thinkers, such as Jacques Derrida and Jean-François Lyotard, but he was not himself a postmodernist.

Heidegger’s own philosophy is complex and cannot be easily categorized. It includes elements of existentialism, hermeneutics (the theory and methodology of interpretation), and phenomenology (the study of structures of consciousness as experienced from the first-person point of view)."

I first heard of it when Google sent a couple of free boards for evaluation to a company I used to work at. We were fully on GSuite + GCP, but the hardware was too expensive and not that useful, so we ended up sending them back.
It’s to be expected with beta products. Emotions have been on the Zuckerberg 1.0 roadmap since the beginning. I don’t know about Fridman, though.
Yuge pipes.

I’ve had the pleasure of sitting on a network that was, in practice, not bandwidth limited and it has led me to conclude that the terrible experience in practice is caused by retail ISPs being absolute dogshit. If you can get on a really well run ISP like Fiber7 in Switzerland, or a $BigCorp network, things are much better and demos like this are no problem.

> But that is also exactly where the moral relativism originates. You _do_ have physical laws, you _do not_ have moral laws. You can _test_ physical laws, you _can not test_ moral laws.

First, this assumes a very specific kind of moral realism, but does not describe all forms of moral realism. Second, we do just fine testing mathematical laws by checking for consistency without any tests of the sort you're describing.

Finally, these sorts of arguments against moral realism have been discussed for decades, so I'll simply leave this here for people to assess:

That's cool. Definitely never occurred to me that there are whole states in the contiguous-48 without Amtrak at all (South Dakota, Wyoming). And then more that are "just barely" (Idaho, Tennessee, Kentucky).

I could honestly see this being the future of remote working, you still want face-to-face time, here you have it. Want to sit next to people in an "office" you can do it all virtually now. Of course you will need to add in the ability to draw on a whiteboard that's also rendered virtually, and a water cooler in the corner.

Can you recommend a good online Excel modeling course?

I see tons of courses that teach “Excel skills”, but can’t find any that teach modeling using Excel.
I don't think so. When you use the portal, it displays speed in MPH -- I highly doubt there's some knots->mph converter in the frontend code.
Does this paper actually say how they provide the image/audio data to the language model? You can't really just pipe 16khz audio into CLIP and slap that into your model of choice. I skimmed the paper, then skimmed it again, and I don't have an answer for what exactly they did here.
There's a reason so many internal corporate applications are built as Excel spreadsheets: there's a lot less friction than having to get a development team involved.

quoted from (not stolen, not infringing any copyright because of fair use) from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.

This nonsense has to stop. Copying a movie, or using the internet on someone else's plan is not piracy is not theft.

Quoting from memory from my old Webster's dictionary which I have owned since I was a student a long time ago:

Theft: The act of taking property and removing it so that the rightful owner is no longer in possession of it.

Piracy: the practice of attacking and robbing ships at sea.

Equating copyright infringement or violation of terms of service with theft or piracy is completely unwarranted messing with definitions of terms that have served their purpose for centuries.

Worse yet, the abuse of these terms in recent times misdirects people's attention away from the underlying flaws: artificial scarcity and the inability to enforce restrictions on use; you can not steal data (unless you steal the physical medium the data is stored on) nor can you pirate a service.

Making unauthorized copies or violating the terms of use of a service may be deemed objectionable but these actions are most certainly neither theft nor piracy.

I have a TCL flip phone (alongside an iPhone 8): can text a flip phone photo by going to photo gallery, selecting a photo, going to “options” and then “share”.

They can't tell you how the board will behave on any random case you decide to put it on.

The uncased requirement is exactly what I'd expect to see there. Other than that, only if they decide to get really technical (they should) and tell you dissipating power / °C and temperature limits.
You have a lot of rights. Many of them are conditional or depend on the facts of your situation. The fact that such a warning could potentially take hours to recite and be outside of the capability of law enforcement to understand make your proposal challenging.

Miranda works because you can write those limited rights on a card in words small enough for a cop to say.
"1+1=2" as a string of symbols is open to interpretation, however, both you and I understand the idea that that string of symbols is conveying, and that idea is true objectively.
Partial indexes are still slower, the database needs to scan the index, and then look for the data, and data is less likely to appear in the same pages.
Is this PCBWay challenging JLCPCB and EasyEDA? Looks like it. I welcome it, EasyEDA and the super slick integration with JLCPCB is a killer feature and the reason I use JLC exclusively for all my boards.

There is a discussion above regarding EDN, which supports S-expressions, has maps, sets, and vectors (JSON style collection syntax []). I think it could be an excellent replacement for YAML in some important use cases, but it is lacking for representing inline, non-Lisp code and heredocs.
I will agree with you that the market can generate 7-8% returns for a certain volume of cash infusion through 401(k)s. but what happened if everybody participates?

I'll spare you the back of the envelope calculation with but if everybody saved 10% of their income to a 401k, it looks like we would have approximately $24 trillion that would need to get that 7-8% return. FWIW,the current 401(k) number 7 trillion. The current stock market size is 46 trillion so where would that money go?

feel free to come up with your own numbers, as professors have told me, more accurate calculations are left as an exercise to the reader.

I suspect that the vast majority of people would stick their money into robot funds and cause the value of the stock market to inflate to unsustainable levels because as we know, stock prices have nothing to do with reality.

Anyway, this calculation is interesting exercise and shows how people really haven't thought through the true cost of retirement and the impact it has on the financial system.

Knots are used for aviation, but this data looks like it's being consumed by the in-flight UI, and most _people_ are not familiar with knots in terms of speed. Indeed, using the UI shows MPH vs. knots. My money is this speed being mph.

Yes the key to doing this more seamlessly is to spoof both the IP and the MAC so your machines are not constantly fighting with the other person over the ARP table entry.
It's funny to me (and I've done it too) that people mis-remember how Roy's finite life-expectancy plot worked.

It wasn't a feature; it was a bug. The company marketed it as a feature, but in reality (before Rachael, maybe) they didn't know how to build Nexus-6 with more than a four-year life expectancy. When Roy finally tracks down his creator and demands he remove it, Tyrell admits that he can't.

```

Tyrell: You were made as well as we could make you.

Roy: But not to last.

```

It's the realization that his own creator, despite all the marketing hype, isn't a god, but just another flawed mortal... that the two of them are fundamentally equal creatures in this mad universe... that pushes Roy past the edge into madness and eventual redemption, when he realizes that in the face of a universe so cold and uncaring about the life within it, it's only life that can care about life. All of it, in all its forms.

Since the transition to electric vehicles will take decades (and some, like aircraft, may never fully make the switch), perhaps the synfuel generated from this pyrolysis can substitute for virgin petroleum. It could help make many parts of the world more energy-independent and less obligated to rely on the Middle East for oil.

The oil to make the original plastics has already been extracted, so it would be a carbon-neutral solution for the most part, especially if some of the plastics are burned to drive the process.

THe ultimate solution, though, is to lessen our dependence on plastic (Reduce), and completely eliminate single-use (Reuse).

I can easily imagine a culture where it's only OK to steal from friends. Because a friend would "obviously" be happy for you to have it, but it's not OK to steal from anyone else.

Like how it's OK to prank a friend, but not a stranger - but the friend doesn't actually want to be pranked (i.e. the friend does not want to be stolen from).

One advantage to using the square food-service buckets as panniers is that you can also use them as stools to sit on when they're off the bike, try that with your fancy Ortliebs! They are kind of bulky though, I have generally preferred to stick with the coated fabric commercial panniers (Arkel these days, though I have a couple pairs of beat-up Ortliebs which I have patched up with Sugru).
I work out of a reminna session every day. I rdp into my windows work laptop from my linux desktop and use it all day. Works great. Audio and video passthrough working well enough that i can use my speakers and boom mic for meetings without getting echo.

I have i3wm configured to always launch my work rdp session in virtual desktop 10. Switching between work and personal desktops is instantaneous. 10x more convenient than the kvm and thunderbolt dock setups I’ve used before.
I used to have the equivalent job for a Rock'n'Roll lighting company. I always went to work with my passport in my pocket, and more than once hit the airport for a trip that would last a week with nothing more than a toolbox and a credit card: clothes and toiletries you can buy once the show has started. That sort of service was one of the reasons that people bought this company's equipment.

There's quite high stress when having to fix something so that the 15,000 punters waiting outside can actually get to see the band they've paid for. Fun though, in retrospect
My local library is already exactly this. It's great, but they get no credit for it.
Are these all the railway tracks in the US or just the ones Amtrak operate with?

I'm not poormouthing you here, if that's what you mean. It's just a bad comparison that almost deliberately ignores the reason for git's development and widespread adoption. It exits the domain of a meaningful metaphor and skates straight into confusion.

Again, I wish you luck. This marketing just doesn't fit for the product you're selling, and that lack of clarity will cost you conversions and waste your time. My $0.02.
Here's a neat article from Nvidia that goes more into the bandwidth savings and some side-by-sides of ML + keypoint vs. compression[1]

Six years ago I went to an arcade called the rec room in Toronto where they have a ghostbusters AR game I got to experience with friends[2]. To this day I still have vivide memories of the experience. When it was all done, we all sat around for 15 minutes in complete silence, just recovering from the experience. I understand the skepticism about the metaverse, but after that experience there's no doubt in my mind it's the future -- you really need to experience it to get a sense of what a more polished version of this feels like.

Now I am definitely doing much simpler things I would wager than you folks are but I have found that with a bit of back and forth you can get pretty good results that work with only a bit of revision.

For what it's worth, a primordial black hole Planet 9 is the plot of Stephen Baxter's new book, "Creation Node," which was released about a week ago. (Well, it's the seed of the plot, and then things take a few turns. It's an interesting book!)

As an aside, it takes the first visitors about 30 years to reach it, and they've got better tech than what's available to us today. It's pretty far out.

Not to make it sound hopeless, but Old Chinese is lossy because it tended to favor conciseness at the expense of unambiguous clarity. There is no total truth and a bit of subjective interpretation is required.

持而盈之 for instance is "持=hold 而=yet 盈=overflow 之=[implied subject or this]" while the translator decided to add a cup, writing "Holding a cup and overfilling it." It's a great assumption as 盈 has the etymology of a vessel being filled, but still an assumption nonetheless.

With respect, I think I already addressed your quibble. I acknowledged the backlog of materials yet to be digitized and explained how to expedite it on an as-needed basis.

It's no more burdensome than it would be with more library funding. Storage is always necessary because big universities own several times more books than they could ever hope to shelve in their increasingly crowded campuses. Digging deep into a subject's history can require materials that don't exist in sufficient quantities for every interested library to have one, necessitating inter-library loans at a minimum.

FYI Every online library catalog I've seen has a "browse shelf" feature.
