Yeah, it's great because it is boring. Some people got in a huff over some perceived insult, but the supposed "victim" chimes in and says there is no problem and the entire situation is defused. This is how online discussion is supposed to work, even though this is the kind of situation that the algorithm hates because who is going to engage now?
Bret Victor's talks, particularly 'Learnable Programming' and especially 'Inventing On Principle' [0] served as the inspiration behind my creation of an IDE called Leporello.js [1]. You can find my interpretation of his example from 'Learnable Programming' here: https://vimeo.com/870708017

To experiment with this example yourself, please follow the link: https://app.leporello.tech/?share_id=ece060b7c63121741be30fd...

As a shameless plug, earlier today I featured Leporello.js on Show HN [2]. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Nope, it doesn't. It reduces it greatly, but it's still there. To disable it "fully" one has to disable SIP, and that's not a great idea.

Rather than "reduced" motion, I'd really look forward to "no" motion.

I once came across an ancient genset based on the original Willy's jeep engine, it was an interesting little device, the cam rockers were very sharp because it only had to run at a very narrow band of RPMs and this made the valve timing very tight.

It's neat how given a chance to optimize instead of just sticking the standard camshaft in there the engineers immediately went for the efficiency gains.
I considered buying a Fairphone last year or the year before, but man was it a brick, it calls into question the whole concept of a mobile device! Why is it that only Apple can produce a reasonably-sized phone, with all Android phones (last I checked) being phablet-sized and not fitting comfortably into a back pocket? Is it in memory of SJ's iconic gesture of letting it slide into the pocket, or because Android phones are basically ad consumption devices needing as much screen real estate to even see any content at all between the ads?
This is a weird hill to die on (pun intended!). Idioms and colloquialism are the spice that make language fun and interesting instead of bland and clinical.
> Meanwhile your license plate is captured on camera

If the thieves are going to such lengths as to hack the pumps, they're likely taking the 60 seconds necessary to tape over their license plate.

This is an extreme premeditated attack, not someone running off with gas on a whim.
If they pull this off (especially if it's possible to do all-electric at low speeds for short distances) I'll be on the preorder list for sure. A manual would be preferable, but that may be too complicated to allow given the powertrain setup.
> Speech restrictionists also tend to ignore the "circular dependency problem": without anyone to defend a position, how do we know if that position is defensible? For example, suppose you live in a theocracy. You're an atheist. You start making your case for atheism. Just as you're about to make your case, the theocrats interrupt: "This speech is killing people. It's preventing them from reaching the blissful afterlife by converting them to atheism. This person is attempting eternal murder." And then throw you in jail.

How is that supposed to be specific to speech? This argument generalize to any prohibition: just because a dictator could use a law to put you in jail doesn't mean laws (or even jails) are inherently bad!

As a extreme example: should we allow rape or pedophilia because religious leaders in power are known to put people in jail for their sexual behavior? Obviously being put in jail for what you do in your sexual life is terrible, right, but that doesn't mean that the law has no say in any human sexual behavior either…

No right is absolute, it's always subject to the law. And all you can wish for is having a law for your country that sets the right balance between freedom and protection, and that's why democracy is important: so that the people can actually have a say on the balance, hopefully moving it to match the moral values of the society (though within the society there will always be debates on the balance, this is inevitable).
> everyone has complete moral immunity for life for absolutely anything they do so long as someone else has more money than them, never mind if they are in the top 10% of the world's wealthy overall.

I've never seen anyone introduce the idea of "wealth absolutism". From your comment though I'm not sure if you would allow the bottom 10% to feel complete moral immunity.
"0.5-2x slower" must be a typo on their part right? If something is 0.5x slower, then it is 2x faster.

I assume they meant to say "1.5-2x slower".
They can do it. The ND Miata was actually lighter than the NA Miata, which is quite a feat.
Seals are/were the big issue.
I recently took delivery of a Mazda CX-90 PHEV. My other car is a 2012 Acura TSX. I wasn’t ready to jump fully into EV simply because I wanted a larger family hauler that didn’t break the bank. My driving is limited to less than 15 km per day. Therefore, the EV portion of the CX-90 was more than enough, with the ICE portion available if we ever need it.

I really like Mazda and I’m glad they exist to push things like the rotary. Maybe I’ll consider the RX-9 as a fun vehicle.

I want EVs to succeed but they simply don’t make sense for all use cases yet. But they don’t have to. Maybe I’ll get an EV to replace the TSX if it ever dies.

But, Mazdas are great cars. I wouldn’t sleep on them.
> What’s the clue? It’s got a little tire for a knob! Pull the lever up, and the gear gets sucked up. Push it down, the gear goes down. Is that self-evident or what?

Well, I didn't figure it out. Definitely easy to identify if you've heard this before, but that's not something that's self-evident.

> enum { Yes, No } is just an automatic no hire decision

This comes from process management where 0 is success and anything else is an error code. Shell conditionals are this way around because of that. Depending on the context it could be an indicator of someone who really understands the system but isn't yet familiar with more general coding idioms.

> The More Control Paths, the Less Understandable

Woah no, I feel like I agree with the title but that is a terrible example. It looks like Z happens even in Not Z situations, which requires digging into everything to find out what's actually going on. The code is lying to you, which is a really bad setup.

This could be mitigated by just renaming doZ() into something that hints it won't always occur, maybe tryDoZ() or checkDoZ() or something.
"Undoable" in this case means "possible to undo", not irreversible!
It is not exactly what you're looking for but this might be a middle ground. It does let you delete things, but after a certain length, you can't do it anymore.

Yup, I do. I do use Yabai, sans that modification. Disabling SIP "just" to get speedier/no animation doesn't seem like a good cost/benefit.
There's an added device inside the pump allowing the theft to take place. The Bluetooth feature allows you to disable it when you're done stealing gas so no one notices.

I'm not sure what the requirement for purchasing CALs has to do with whether an OS is multi-user or not. I have administered or been a user of interactive remote NT user session systems going back to beta testing the initial release of WinFrame in the mid 90's. Although worlds better today, I would not have called it pisspoor even then. Today RDS is much more capable than X on a unix system.
So this should be it for trying to regulate stable diffusion type tech, right? If these models and their inference infra can be shrunk down to be runnable on a PS2, it doesn't seem like it's possible to stop this tech without a totalitarian surveillance state (and barely even then!).
GAIA1: A 9B parameter world model able to simulate complex driving scenes
If you think MS would likely be worse at security than whatever other shop could be running your local reactor, I think you are either not being serious or you are getting confused by visibility and what the difficult things about IT are.

Trying to secure computers for 6 billion untrained randos, who will do unimaginably dumb things to the system you provide, which you have to keep super accessible while doing so, might not look very exciting, but is probably at least several magnitudes more difficult than securing a highly controlled, controllable and (I assume) strictly audited power plant.
just wanted to add interesting detail:
hybrid cars use slightly different engine construction that is more efficient but lacks power in low rpm making them useless in regular cars albecause you would not be able to move from full stop, hybrids just use electric motor to solve that issue
>Bill Gates was seriously arguing for having no virtual memory on this OS!

That’d surprise me. This was a time when one of the major limiting factors to NT adoption was it needing “a lot” of RAM. And he’d had plenty of experience with virtual memory, including his own company’s Xenix and OS/2.
Nearly all
The problem is that by going with that, you lose many of the benefits of an EV, like not lugging around several hundred pounds of cast iron, or having oil to change.
Ah good to know about the name "Series Hybrid", I've only ever heard people call a Series Hybrid a "Plug-In Hybrid" even in somewhat official and educational contexts, but I suspect that's just a symptom of the problem I was complaining about.
I don't know what fuels it takes, but the "optimized for a single RPM and torque to spin a dynamo" is pretty much describing Mazda's MX-30 R-EV which does this with a rotary engine.

https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/mazda/mx-30-r-ev

Won't be coming to the US though, and the EV version is dropped here as well. Now that they have PHEVs in the CX-90 and upcoming CX-70. Previously the MX-30 was available in California as a compliance car.
> For a long time we lived mostly avoiding the consequences of our pollution, but now it's everywhere in our food and water.

To expand on that, there are places in the USA where you breathe in forever chemicals when you take a hot shower.
The trend goes in the right direction. If you are absolutely dedicated to making this strictly progressive, despite the clear externalities of driving justifying a "sin tax" approach, you could exempt from any proposed tax the market price of a 195/55R15 tire or other index of basic tire price.
The post doesn't do a good job explaining whether this is the stock configuration or purely a hypothetical. My initial reaction was the same as yours, but upon further reflection I get the feeling it's just a thought exercise.

yep, and blackrock and vanguard are tens of thousands of billions of $, not to mention big tech itself does manage billions of cash.

sorry, but [citation needed].

I highly doubt that what you say is true. When I go the homepage of e.g. Kobo e-readers, two of their four sales-points are that the reader is confortable on the eyes. Same for the kindle, where the first two points are "crisp..." and "comfortable on the eyes".

I'm not saying marketing is always right, but if all e-readers are selling their devises on the merits of "being easy on the eyes", you can't just say that's not a thing for people buying them.
The problem with doing that in the purest sense is that mechanically connecting the engine to the wheels is always more efficient than turning a dynamo, then running the power through an inverter and a motor. Honda and Mitsubishi actually do pretty much what you're saying, but they both couple the engine to the front wheels at high speed. And at low speed, the efficiency in hybrid mode is not that great. It is a very simple, elegant design though, so I'm still fond of it.
> the software accurately predicted where crimes would occur with a “less than half a percent” success rate.

TL;DR not good at predicting, pretty useful at confirming bias.
> He's describing a particular kind of hybrid, where the ICE acts purely as a power generator.

That's pretty much how diesel railway locomotives work, they just ditch the batteries and throttle the engine to control power. For regenerative braking (that isn't) they just have giant resistors with fans.

I have a similar gut reaction to companies using virtuous adjectives in their names.

That said, if a company really does value doing things differently, what are they supposed to do?

Not say so? Try not to make a profit, guaranteeing they won't be able to make a positive impact?

I think it's important to not let the deceitful marketing in the world poison the well for any possibility of honest marketing.

From what I can tell, Fairphone is working pretty hard to earn the name.

I have a plug-in hybrid (Toyota RAV4 Prime). It doesn't support flex fuel, but it's an awesome implementation- I typically drive for months before having to refuel the 10 gallon tank, with most of my driving on the battery. There's no dynamo, it switches from charging to discharging smoothly.

Just a followup for those interested, inference implementation notes and comparison clip between StyleTTS2, TTS VITS, and XTTS: https://fediverse.randomfoo.net/notice/AaOgprU715gcT5GrZ2
So a command could either return all different kinds of errors, with informative payloads even, or a generic 'ok', instead of arguably more reasonable (since we already return variants with payloads) design of an 'ok' with some useful payload? Or will it literally be a Boolean "success/failure" value?

Admittedly, both are possible designs but I just... don't agree with neither of them. Allowing error states to be returned directly by the command while requiring success states to be queried separately already breaks the CQS; and returning a bool is no more useful than returning void: you'll have to do the same follow-up query in both cases.
Author here. It is true that one of my goals in writing that post was to discourage people from jumping on the NeoHaskell train, but a larger goal was to educate people on what NeoHaskell actually was because there were a LOT of misconceptions floating around that led to confusion (and that confusion in turn amplified the drama because people were reading things into NeoHaskell that were not actually true).

You're totally reading stuff into this that's not accurate. I have no idea where you get the concept I accidentally attended anything. I never said that I was ticketed for attending the event. From the views of the rangers, I was an active participant. The rangers originally planned to hit me with way more severe charges than a couple of tickets, but after a rational conversation with them, they realized I was not in charge. A bit of advice, don't look like you're in charge when the cops show up.
I'm generally against punishment as a whole, as I don't think it works generally, but considering how little responsibility SBF has taken for stealing all this money I think there's a reasonable chance that he'll just turn around and do the same scam again if he's not thrown in jail, or at the very least having the SEC monitoring every single thing he does.

Granted, I'm a victim of the Gemini Earn unregistered security scam [1], and so maybe I cannot be an impartial judge here, but SBF is kind of the only non-violent offender that I can think of right now that I honestly feel should be locked up and throw away the key.

[1] Before you give me a lecture about how I should have known better and how you'd never fall for such a scam and how Gemini's claims of FDIC insurance would never fool anyone smart, just rest assured I've heard it from the denizens of HN and my peers. I know I was stupid to have done anything with cryptocurrency, and even more stupid to think that Gemini wasn't misleading people about their Gemini Earn program. Just to be clear though, it's not my accusation to called Gemini Earn an unregistered security, it's the SEC's (https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2023-7).

The 3 Ways to Balance Meaning and Money
When most EVs have ranges comparable their ICE counterparts then people will start worrying about efficiency. For the moment the marginal cost per unit distance for EVs is so much higher than ICE that it isn't something that anyone need consider. When the alternative is another EV instead of an ICE car then people will start caring about efficiency.
I hear there are concerns about plug-in hybrid's that don't use their engines often developing issues because those engines never get used. Does the CX-90 have any features to help with that?
“… a considerable percentage of the fuel leaving the chamber unburned.”

I bought a used ‘79 RX-7 in 1990 with about 130,000 miles on it. When it started up, it emitted a large cloud of white vapor.

I'm a backend engineering with 5 years' experience all over a modern cloud data stack. I tend to describe myself as a "data generalist"—I'm comfortable being employee #1 on a data team; in fact I'd really enjoy that. Also interested in more traditional backend engineering, particular with on data-intensive products and ML, and I'd be happy to learn more front-end too.
Yes it's a clear design flaw but it's still theft. It's not like you're legally allowed to rob a store if the front door lock isn't installed properly and doesn't work.
Nope! It's actually because there's a financial standard transaction flow for things like pumps!

-Confirm account: super small test move to confirm liveness of endpoint

-Place hold: (locks $⁷5 worth of funds attached to an account)
Finalize transaction

-Finalize transaction for final amount

-Release hold

This is actually a really troublesome thing for people who have trouble keeping their account balances positive, because you can end up locking them out of further financial activity until the hold is expired/released.

It's one of those things you don't really think about but are all over the place, and are a big part of making the world turn the way it does.
I really like that he's not afraid to publish reasonably sized one-off novels. That is becoming so rare these days with so many other author wanting their first novel to be the first of a series of thousand page tomes absolutely chock full of wheel spinning and padding.
