Well, it doesn’t look bad for what it is. But I can’t see how this beats the ortlieb, other than cost and availability. They can really be put on and off in a single motion and still be secure. There is no need for a permanently attached mount on the bike. How would I even get my hand in between the bag and the wheel to tighten that grip? Without getting dirty?. The mount appear to have sharp metal edges exposed when the bag is not attached.
Will the lid be tight from water coming underneath? When biking it’s not just rain from above.

Ortlieb has other variants of the bag that are easier to open without loose straps. If you are happy with requiring a special mount only for your own bike there is the 3.1 series with even more snug fit and less protruding hooks on the bag.

> With regards to turning it back into electricity, that is not feasible due to the way entropy works. You would just generate more heat than electricity in the process

I'm aware that it would be wasteful, but you already have the heat. As it is vented from the ac to the atmosphere at the moment as a total loss, generating any electricity at all must be a win? Something like a Sterling engine, perhaps?

> into precise violent force without the need for some significant portion of the population tacitly approving by participating

This has existed for years in the form of "foreign legions". Arguably French foreign policy in Africa would have been quite different without the FFL.

> Fifty years ago you could convert cash into indiscriminate violence with bombing campaigns, you still needed the people if you wanted to invade instead of just destroying

None of these developments in "intelligent" weapons has moved beyond the "destroy" category. You still need boots on the ground to have any hope of building personal relationships in counterinsurgency and "nationbuilding".

> corporations sitting on cash could wage war on each other or other nations

We have already seen non-state entities wage "war" on other countries. It hasn't changed the fundamentals of international relations. Either (a) the "host" country condones the actions, at which point the actions are an act of war against the victim, or (b) the "host" cooperates in taking action against the non-state actor, or (c) the "host" is so weak that the non-state entity is the de facto "state". I don't see a realistic case where this behavior spreads beyond the very weak "states" in which it has already happened - functional states will not surrender their sovereignty to companies.
Usually the other programs have specific importers for other tools.

It is unreasonable to expect a tool to support the formats of others for export.

Even five figure professional tools only do those exports and then have separate importer plugins.
For example Altium Designer recently added a functional kicad importer.

But the DXF stuff? Excellent for integration with mechanical CAD tools and for use with RF simulators like CST or HFSS.
QUCS Studio is the odd one out that they support importing kicad layout files into their EM simulator.
For my job I work in Pharo. So I am still doing this all the time, haha.

What’s also really neat is to be able to work “inspector-driven”. By that I mean to inspect an object and send messages to it directly in order to understand how to interact with it. This becomes even more true if you need some temporary global data that has no permanent reference to hang around for a bit longer.

Question: I want to make a tutorial about creating a Selenium scraper with Pharo along with some data visualization and post it on here. I have noticed that Pharo is really strong on those things. Does anyone have an idea which site I should pick? Perhaps Hacker News itself? Also, the tricks I will be showing there would also be really handy for Selenium web tests. I wonder if people ok HN would be interested in that.

My understanding for the reasoning behind this is that they don't want apps to have to ship the runtime stuff to avoid downloads and app sizes getting large.

That could be fixed by just shipping an updated shared library to all phones similar to how Google play services works on Android, but I guess they figure if you're updating anyway you might as well just update the whole OS.

It matters a lot for libraries. It matters much less for applications.
Of course. The larger the model is (GPT3.5+), the more languages it can hold in memory, so they are naturally multilingual.

But small models (Llama) need dedicated training to be good at another language.

Its similar to how high verbal IQ people can easily master multiple languages, but normal people are only good at their main language.

I don't Like how the phone merges the utility of a camera,and watch. Or the ebook reader replaces the book. (Or IPod to iPhone)

I don't agree with the concept of merging of their functions, as it impacts their utility.

You lose the essence of its purpose.

And on the other hand, I think it would be a win if Apple could merge the functionality of the iPhone with the Apple Watch, but given it eat into the bottom line of competing products, would they?

Would they allow the iPhone to impact MacBook sales for example.

When Apple is able to replace the iPhone with an Apple Watch, I think that is a win for utility.

Not really? "Verbal IQ" has a specific meaning, one related to language learning.
+1. The comments bashing Closure in comparison to TypeScript feel like they're missing the timeline.

Closure brought modules, requires, compile-time type checking and optimizations to JavaScript years before TypeScript was on the scene. I wouldn't dare start a new project with Closure. But it was such a spiritual predecessor to what we have today in TypeScript, and has a special place in my heart too.
That's just silliness. The Raspberry Pi 4 / 5 are made with sub-$60 dollars worth of materials when brand new. You get what you pay for, which is not much and certainly doesn't include dependability. It's a hobbyist and educational plaything whose top design priority is to be low cost.

Little 1-liter office PCs from HP/Dell/etc. have MSRP closer to $1000 when new, meaning a correspondingly larger BOM cost, and are built to last until obsolete by PC OEMs who have years of experience doing that. Even well used units have better prospects for durability and longevity than new Raspberry Pi boards.
You’re joking right? It’s half the performance of the opi5…
Nope it's super slow for large sparse matrices. It's even faster to use generic scatter/gather to implement some, instead of that built in thing.
Literally 99% of the people we talked to did not notice or care

Or they've decided there are better things to do than try to convince someone who's got a vested interest in defending their current tech stack. The text rendering problems with e.g. Github are something even a blind person could see – yet you're dismissing them as highly arcane things that only a developer would notice.

Actually, a blind person would also likely notice your non-native app because it almost certainly doesn't integrate well (if at all) with operating system accessibility features.

The Marvin Attack
In Smalltalk this was always possible! In Java the default JVM implementation is able to do "hot code swapping" only for method bodies. Smalltalk was able to replace everything - even class restructuring. There was a research project at Sun/Oracle [1] to add JVM support for all possible changes in "hot code swapping"... but the implementation was not incorporated into JVM because of increased maintenance complexity so the author made a JVM fork and named it DCEVM and is maintaining it [2]. I thing this project is also connected with HotSwapAgent [3]. There is also a completely different commercial implementation of the hot-swapping capability for Java called JRebel [4] which is used on many software development projects...

Gold as a store of value works better when the world is using it as a reserve, but they don’t anymore so it is just like any other limited supply commodity and doesn’t necessarily need to go up in price due to inflation. It only will go up due to emotion.

Most Apple users always run the latest iOS version. And the vast majority of apps aren’t seeing major new OS features each iOS release anymore that they just have to adopt to stay competitive - they can focus on their business these days.

So in that kind of market, this approach does reduce support costs because you just pick a target iOS version to support and test with devices running that and you know newer devices will also just work.
And the eighties computers with low cost two layer boards and complex designs like that on them are one of the reasons why all products have to pass FCC Part 15 radiated emissions EMC tests, not just the intentional radiators.

This is an interesting question, why it took cooperative gaming so long to become popular. I remember looking into cooperative games about 20 years ago, and they were rare.

Did society change?

Yes, it's incredibly odd. Most US large ETFs and crypto have basically been in lockstep for much of the last few years. Same with housing, delayed a bit. It seems to indicate that that we're seeing when we look at the price of these assets is largely just a map of inflation rather than a substantial increase in value (i.e. just a graph of non-USD assets going up in terms of USD as real value of USD decreases). The easiest thing to check against, though, is gold, which has barely budged in comparison. Metals are not moving in lockstep. Given inflation, and the uncertainty at the beginning of COVID, you would've really expected something there. Genuinely don't get it.

How? Are you implying "high verbal IQ people" have bigger "models" in their heads somehow?
They don't build on Windows at all, as well.
Agreed. I've done a fair amount of reworking signal processing algorithms to run on GPU/TPU, and it's a different beast. You often have to really rebuild the algorithm from the ground up to take advantage of parallelization. But often you /can/ rework the algorithm, and end up with much higher throughput than the crusty old serial algorithm: there's typically nothing fundamentally stopping you from finding a good implementation, just that the original devs were working in the 70s and hasn't thought that far ahead.

Caveats when biting the gold: https://www.perthmint.com/news/media-announcements/corporate...
I'd love to see an economists take on the value to a consumer of holding gold in this form, at the price.

Investment gold is usually kept in vault, and you trade ownership arms length. Direct gold ownership is rife with risks: fineness, substitutions and overpriced purchase. Yes, you can always sell at a mall gold trader but that's way way off market price.

So it's an inflation hedge with a lot of cost and risk and demands huge upswing in gold price to pay off. And securing it at volume is a nightmare. Plus Costco wants to limit you to 2, and have a margin.

Only if the other planet's orbits take them near enough to the black hole to get sucked in. The main difference between a primordial black hole at about the Earth's mass and a planet at about the Earth's mass is the presumed density of dark matter around it. And I'm guessing there's more hawking radiation coming from the black hole than the planet.

But small black holes with the same mass as the Earth have the same sucking power as the Earth since it's the mass that does the sucking.

We didn't have a "vested interest" in any tech stack, this was all preliminary testing before we built out anything. If you want to take any evidence of what people empirically care about as being somehow a bias or flaw in testing methodology on our part, then do your own user testing and likely come to the same conclusions as us.

You've reduced the problem from something apparently everyone can readily see to now the blind (again, blind who? Blind developers). Accessibility is important which is why every cross platform framework of note has accessibility solutions, the web is not the only user interface that implements accessibility. This says nothing about how much people who are able-bodied care, which, again, is the vast majority of people who simply do not care. Just because one observes some problem to exist does not mean that everyone else feels the same, however much one would like to be vindicated of their experience of the problem.

How so? From an entirely secular standpoint, it's the moment a distinct individual life starts (e.g. viable new organism with its own unique DNA).

And that's supposed to prove what? Someone else might believe a child who has not yet met some arbitrary developmental milestone as not deserving of any special respect. And that's not hypothetical, infanticide has been common in many cultures up to and including recent times.
