I use HF radio all the time from inside my home, in the middle of one of the densest cities in BC. Within the past few weeks I've made contacts with stations in Alaska, Belize, Costa Rica, Colombia, Russia and Japan with a radio inside my home in Vancouver, Canada. HF is 10000% usable in urban areas. It's not optimal or perfect, but it's just fine.
I was not aware that I violate any guidelines. But that a lawyer is your first choice when fraud is involved with financial institutions is not obvious for me. Reminds me when people called the BaFin in Germany and wanted to report fraud agains wirecard and they just hung up on those people.

"I've had several dealings with lawyers in Estonia and no reason for a complaint so far. But I didn't get them from some other website, I asked around in Estonia with business contacts there."

We did not have this option. To get a reliable, English speaking lawyer in a foreign country, the list provided by your embassy is normally a good start.

In World War 2 there was a portable/temporary runway technology known as Marston Mats consisting of perforated metal plates (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marston_Mat). They are very durable - near my grandfather's home there was an emergency landing zone made up of these rectangular plates, and they were still there 40 years after the war. Is there a modern equivalent that could be brought to bear?
Thanks for sharing, very inspiring. I love Rust for parsing video game replays / save files. I've authored a Rocket League replay parser (boxcars) and an entire suite of web visualizations (via Webassembly) for EU4 called pdx.tools https://pdx.tools

It's not easy to work with proprietary formats, but they've both become pretty popular, so I would 100% recommend sinking more time into this project as long as it scratches your itch. Gamers are always looking for more stats and deeper insights
I think about it while lifting. If I’m not struggling, I’m not growing (literally).

I also feel it applies to my programming as well. I still get frustrated and annoyed and tripped up, but I can write more high quality code quicker now than I could ten years ago.

But generally that means I take on more tasks or harder problems, rather than call it a day at noon every day (though I do genuinely feel there’s a diminishing return and something like a four day work week might actually improve knowledge work output).
I meant in terms of achieving the intended outcome for the end-users. Is it actually desirable to ensure there's a resolution when really they need to decide?

The skin waxing (probably aggressive noise reduction) on the Pixel 7 Pro is so bad it's changed how I take photos. I no longer try to get faces in my photos unless the light is very bright and they're close and near the center of the frame (the very bad barrel distortion is another problem with faces, they cannot be too close to the edges or they'll be comically elongated)

I moved from Germany to Estonia because in Germany, there really is no political willingness to support entrepreneurship, startups or the internet in general. If you’re not a big car company, you’re not going to be happy in Germany as a company owner.

As a founder, I am much happier in Estonia. Life is much simpler when you don’t have to jump through twenty hoops because of some stupid political decision for every action you take as a small business. While I can’t speak for all of the Baltics, Estonia truly has a lot of potential in that regard. Hell, the „IRS“ here has a support chat! Unthinkable in Germany.

Sure, a lot of things need work and are still developing, especially in rural areas, and of course no country comes without issues, but Tallinn isn’t far off German cities in many areas. In some, it’s even outright better. Free public transport anyone? Being able to pay by card everywhere? Self-checkout in supermarkets? Not a thing in Germany.
Not the OP, but my house (in the US) has very nice triple-paned windows that were manufactured in Latvia by Intus. Estonia certainly has a cool, digitally-savvy reputation, though I gather a lot of that is closer to "these things which should be easy like getting licenses etc. are actually easy" so maybe that's partly hype. Haven't heard much about Lithuania recently, to be fair. I would be willing to believe the Baltics aren't going to change the whole world overnight, but is it really as bleak as you're suggesting?

Before posting our vibes based opinions about how little time we all feel we have, I'd encourage everyone to first spend some time with the data on how Americans actually spend their hours: https://www.bls.gov/tus/tables.htm, and in particular https://www.bls.gov/tus/tables/a1-2022.pdf.

It will probably surprise many that even married couples who both work full time spend on average 2.9 to 3.6 hours per day on leisure and sports (vs 5.1 to 6.1 hours on work and 1.4 to 0.9 hours on child care). https://www.bls.gov/tus/tables/a7-1519.htm
It'd be great to use a non-Blizzard property for this analysis since that company is outstandingly despicable. Plenty of other RTSes exist and I know that AoE2 has an extremely strong data analytics scene.
I've been pondering about changing to this phone, but it's so ugly, I mean literally so ugly, that it always gives me the jives. It's the worst looking phone on the market, period. A hideous monstrosity, that noone considers buying. Maybe Chucky with the knife and this phone can be paired somehow, but I have serious doubts.

Just go to ASUS' industrial designer, who dreamed up the Zenfone 10 design, hand him lots of black briefcases with blood diamonds and greenbacks, plus strawberry cakes and beg him to come up with something.

And the colors... this is really the socks+sandals of the phone market.
You may be right but it doesn’t make it any less shit than Google obsoletes perfectly good phones by not providing security updates for them

> On cars with an electronic handbrake, do they have a way to apply the brakes while the car is moving?

It's not like you'd actually want to do that if the car is fwd and refusing to stop. These are more parking brakes than anything applicable to an emergency. A fwd car with a yanked handbrake is a poor mans drift machine, and not stopping. This is because they generally only engage the rear brakes.
> People ignore the truth, don't care or are actively working against it because it is a Chinese hoax.

It's far easier to convince people that it's a hoax when the scientists say things that aren't strictly true -- because they they get to debunk your minor exaggeration, which discredits you, and makes people more willing to believe the people who claim you're full of crap about everything.

When you see dishonest people succeeding, the conclusion to draw is that we need to redouble our efforts to fight dishonesty, not that dishonesty is an effective strategy that everyone should adopt.

The latter destroys anyone's ability to even know who is right, and who does that benefit?
Yeah, in 1996 SGI bought Cray for $740 million. They got CrayLink/NumaLink, but also a big 64way SMP SPARC machine, which they sold to Sun for "significantly less than $100 million." Which became the Sun E10K, which made a lot of money.[0]

Then a bunch of the graphics people (who did the GPU for the Nintendo 64) went to found ArtX [1], which got bought by ATI.

There was also the ill-fated Fahrenheit project.

You don't have to let the spikes from the switcher get very far.

Here's the schematic for a switcher I designed.[1] This is a strange application - USB power in, 120V out, to drive an antique Teletype machine. Without any filtering, there would be huge spikes in the DC across C1-C2. But it didn't take much filtering to fix that. There's a small ferrite bead at L2, and an RC filter at the snubber at R1-C7. The back to back Zeners are to absorb inductive kickback from the output electromagnet. That's the output side. On the input side, there's more noise suppression, to prevent injecting noise back into the USB power source, which is usually a laptop here. Note L1 and C12. Those are all tiny surface mount parts, total cost in quantity maybe US$0.20.

It's an exercise in LTSpice to get the values right and make the DC power smooth DC, in both voltage and current. This is well understood.

There are radio hams using this thing, and they report it's not blithering in the RF spectrum.

I think he's saying that Tesla is always mentioned if something happens to one of their cars, but other brands don't get the same treatment. For example a headline about a Tesla exploding would be "Tesla car explodes!", while for any other brand it would be "Electric car explodes!".

I don't have any love for Tesla but I do notice that whenever something happens with one news outlets put the fact that it was a Tesla front and center, while with other brands usually not.
Tesla only makes EVs. Are there other car manufacturers who only make EVs?
Use Apple Pay. It generates a new CC number (DPAN) for each transaction so they can't track you through that.

> And then Apple made their OS more heavy weight every year until my phone slowed to a crawl.

I mean, it is a bit unfair against Apple - some of the reason behind the OS getting more heavyweight is actually backporting new features in 7 year’s distance, many which actually has dedicated hardware in case of the more modern lineup.

Also, there is a big aspect which is independent of Apple: every app is getting more and more heavy, the same phone now has to open a 500MB facebook app, not a 70MB one (just random numbers).

Also, the whole “yearly replacement” thing is just.. not an actual thing. People on average change their phones every 3 years, where the accumulated small improvements do add up. But everyone is at a different point in the cycle, so it absolutely makes sense. Add to it how apple devices hold their value to an insane degree, often living 2nd-3rd lives, and one would be really hard-pressed to actually pinpoint apple as a threat against our planet - compared to cheap androids that are barely good for a single year due to instantly obsolete software, has no resale value whatsoever, and are absolutely single-use.

I am not a proponent of extreme capitalism/libertarianism, but I really have a hard time with a realistic business model that would be significantly better.
Yeah fine, there's idiots everywhere. But my point still stands. Surface levels judgements don't uncover why he's doing what he's doing.

- Perverse incentives by companies to not properly support the user experience on older devices.

- Tons of money spent pointlessly.

The "bulky ferrite" he used is an easy 'hack.' the correct way to fix this wouldn't be as expensive or as bulky, as noted in the article: "I expect Apple could solve this problem with much cheaper and hidden it somewhere cleverly."
Why does anyone spend so much on such a repugnant phone?
Americans are always good guys by definition.
Near-field being as big as 2 meters from the charger can be quite relevant for use in aircraft. Since on a narrow-body aircraft passengers can easily be within 2 meters of some of the VHF antennae.

On the other hand, aviation voice radios aren't very sensitive and navigation radios have filtering built-in. So the output of an Apple charger is probably some orders of magnitude too small to cause any issues.
Perhaps you might have to prove it was you who was carrying the phone at the date(s) and time(s) in question.

Obviously if Google or its subsidiaries are your adversaries, then you might not get the data you need from the source. For example if the company or its subsidiaries are negatively affected by the alleged crime, or they just don't like you for any reason, they might even be the ones who report it.

Why not let your government track your location history for a decade. That way, it will know that you did not commit any crimes. That is how silly this sounds to me.

By law and by agreement, Google is actually less accountable to you than your government (assuming you are American).

Floating point already does that with separate mantissa and exponent bits. Regardless, you still have a limited number of bits for precision.
My pixel 4a 5g works like a charm. 3.5 years and still going fine. I used my pixel 2 for three years so badly. I used it as a hotspot every single day and the number of battery cycles were as if the phone was used for 6 years.

My pixel 4a5g takes photos that are on reasonable standards, obviously they won't match match, but it doesn't make a serious difference either to me. I need three things from my phone - battery, camera and lag free user experience. I don't need thinner bezels for gods sake, I can't understand the craze and demand for thinner bezels over a two day battery life.
For my DNS resolver I run, it tends to take around twice as long for the initial request compared to other caching resolvers.
With sufficiently adequate drivers seatbelts are superfluous indeed.

Apart from an analogy is a template of your argument. It is the logic of the argument itself.

Errors also happen sometimes without type systems being to blame (they only catch a subset of errors).

The marginal costs of a type system is usually very low too, so it seems to be a great fit.

The example from the article without any explicit arguments reminds me very much of objective c's message passing concept, which I actually quite liked and used very much. So, I guess the answer is: there is no objectively correct way to do things, except if the thing you are trying to do is get "engagement" then take an extremely strong stance on something which has no objectively correct answer.
It's not the best looking phone but that's ridiculous. It looks fine.
Unfortunately the world is filled with people like my fried who, without fail, buys - for cash, not as part of a contract renewal - the max spec iPhone available every year. One for him, one for his wife. Sell the old ones, or give them to family. Revenue like that is too hard for these companies to pass up. And so we get this waste.
Yeah, that's the difference we've seen according to the QPS for the ANN Benchmarks. The same story seems to be true for other datasets too. We're looking at a 0.9 recall.
I feel that. I've worked in those environments. A previous job we had a C89 code base that very deliberately could only build with certain older compilers. It was made to be able to target ~20 year old OSes and embedded environments. We had to be extremely careful about new features used, and if we tried to update the tool chain.

> Telling all your users "just get the newer compiler" is rude.

With Rust you don't have the same things holding you back. Features and targets are extremely well supported and for a long time. This compatibility is a die hard sacred tenant. This a good thing! It should be celebrated and shouted from every roof top! It isn't rude that the level of engineering allows this to be a low drama affair. Without the use of RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP it is very rare to have something holding you back on an older, stable compiler. I can think of one major bump of supported OSes a while back and that's it.

You can stay on older versions of the compiler if you really want to, but don't expect to be able to build new code that uses new features.

All anecdotal but I would still be using my Pixel 1 if there was software support. 4a5g still going strong for both my wife and me.

Disclaimer, I work on Vespa.

If you look for just pure vector similarity search, there are many alternatives. But Vespa's tensor support, multi-vector indexing and the ability to express models like colBERT (1) or cross-encoders makes it stand out if you need to move beyond pure vector search support.

Plus, for RAG use cases, it's a full blown text search engine as well, allowing hybrid ranking combinations. Also with many pure vector databases like Pinecone, you cannot describe an object with more than one vector, if you have different vector models for the object, you need different indexes, and then duplicate metadata across those indexes (if you need filtering + vector search).

Manufactured goods are genuinely higher quality and/or cheaper. Services are more expensive. Zero-sum type good (housing in most metros) are higher, for complex reasons, but boiling down to the ratio of availability to demand. But if you want a manufactured home, in the middle of nowhere, you can get a higher quality house today, for lower cost relative to that quality than in the past.
