Starlink says on their FAQ page[1] for the roaming model that if you roam too far, your connection will be briefly interrupted while they assign you a new IP address.

I think that's because they want every user to have a reasonable experience with all the websites out there that do geoIP lookups. It also gives them flexibility in the future to not act as a worldwide internet backbone for their own users traffic by advertising each set of local IP's only at local POP's.

Geolocation is a fiction, it’s just lists that claim addresses are in some country. Nobody is under any obligation to make sure those claims are true.
Fluent Forever is an alternative to Duolingo which is based on flashcards which you customize from app-provided vocabulary and sentences, and are presented to you in spaced-repetition intervals. (The founder based the method off of his own experience learning languages with Anki.)

The gamification is less than Duolingo. When I complete a review it praises me for my keeping up my streak, and they also added achievements. However there aren't gems, premium upsell ads (it's a paid app), etc.
Biology is all about survival and multiplying the species. Seeds are plants babies, the biological response is to make your babies aren't eaten! I think there's a book about this, probably Grain Brain, but I 'm not sure.

Unfortunately, at the moment, Ukraine lost more than 10% of territory under occupation, and other suffer from constant attacks on infrastructure, and sea export extremely limited, so we now very depend on grants from US and EU.

In foreseen future, if West will not give aviation and long range rockets, Ukraine will need revolutionary restructure of economy to survive.

For example, before war, Ukraine was one of the top food exporters, but now, with limited access to sea, have to use land routes, which are just add too much to cost of raw grain.
It's a limitation off the proposal, sure.

I'm saying to deal with it. Change the code to be compatible. It's not that important to keep it the way it is.

Now you're referring to better designs, which is great. Have the best of both worlds if that's possible.

But when you were just pointing out that difficulty, my response is that it's a very small difficulty so that's not a big mark against the idea. If it was that proposal or nothing, that proposal would be much better than nothing, despite the forced code changes to use it.
The public didn't know this. Regular John and Jane belive that higher Mhz means faster.
When doing a literature review, it usually helps to at least state the date of the literature you are reviewing.

For example, when is "Comparing mathematical provers; Wiedijk, F" from? You can take a guess by looking at the literature references in the paper, or googling it, but it would be good to have a date anyway (2003). There is also a follow-up book from 2006 (https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/11542384) about this topic.

I mean, there's certainly rebuilt/salvaged cars, but more often than not people are scammed into buying those from shady AF places.
Lesson is, don't waste your time or money on a unibody car with major damage. Scrap em. It's pointless. And people arguing we need to repair everything even from major damage when it makes zero economic or ecological sense and from those with no experience in the industry is just tiring.
Well, the world view in this case is 'the media lies' - and that's correct in this case (though it wasn't intentional).

Show HN: Reliable AI-generated text detection at checkfor.ai
Hey all!

I've been increasingly concerned about low-quality AI generated content polluting the internet. Other AI detectors don't seem to work well in my experience, so I started checkfor.ai with a couple friends.

Please give it a shot on any real text and AI-generated examples and let me know how well it works for you.

Thanks for trying, I'm open any and all feedback!
IDK about bodybuilding, but:

a) Entertainment and arts are useful, even Stone Age hunters and gatherers left some art behind. It is part of our humanity. We obviously feel need to produce and consume art. (Maybe not you, but we the people in general.) And movies are art.

b) Big sets of people, like California is, need to be managed somehow. Individual politicians might be useless, but the office of the governor is useful.
Show HN: Timbre – An app that finds the best sounds for your sleep
Hey all, I'm currently a solo iOS developer who just released my first app, Timbre, onto the App Store (iPhone only for now). Here's a demo to show you how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALoPAFb31Bk.

Timbre originally came about because I wanted to build a sleep sounds & sleep tracker app. I had used Headspace, Calm, Pillow, etc. and figured that instead of paying $70 / year I could just build my own app and pay $100 / year (not a great plan in retrospect). As I started building Timbre, I realized that one of the biggest issues I had with these other apps is that I could never really see which sounds genuinely helped me sleep. With that in mind, I pivoted on my original idea and decided to really hone in on connecting sleep quality and sounds.

Using a custom ML model, Apple's CoreML framework and HealthKit's sleep stage data, I made it so that Timbre could calculate a personal sleep quality score. Therefore, when you record a sleep session while listening to a sound, the app can rank the sounds you've listened to based on your sleep quality scores over time.

Of course, the app also has a smart alarm, offline support, sleep analysis and more, but I'd love to get some feedback & suggestions from the demo video. Also feel free to ask me any questions and I'd be happy to answer them!
Also true, but as someone who ran my own asn and space for 5 years, it can be a pain when it doesn’t work. Spent a good chunk of time making sure my space showed as Ireland, not us or Germany. Netflix, Disney+ and others all didn’t like me to start… but there are ways of fixing it.

This is more designed for a self hosted server, so if you want multi-device web access then it's a great solution. I can download a PDF on my android phone and upload it to my paperless-ngx instance in a couple of clicks and easily edit the tags as necessary. It's great for travelling as you're not reliant on having a locally installed application on your chosen device with you, and of course it would still be available if you lost your main device and only had your phone on you.

Many of Musks companies have access to internal google API's that aren't available to the public.

For example, the in-tesla car map uses various google data sources in ways the regular API doesn't support.
1. Dynamically typed!

2. Ok that didn't work too well we've added static type hints.

Does anyone know of any good embedded statically typed languages? It seems to be a very unexplored design space. The only real ones I know of are AngelScript (which catastrophically fails rule 0 of programming languages) and Gluon which is just a bit too weird and aggressively functional for me.

It is faster not to spend the time setting up a proper protocol beforehand.

With dynamic experimentation, you get your results sooner, which means you have more time fix them if they're wrong.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_health_insurance_option for those missing the connection.

NHS comes across to me as government funded healthcare rather than a gov-kickstarted not-for-profit insurance option. Am I missing a nuance? Not familiar with NHS so I could have a wildly wrong impression of what it is.
It does lower the bar for what is considered "major damage".

Having a car written off when you need to essentially take the entire thing apart is fairly reasonable, as is not wanting to repair the actual body part itself.

When the car is made out of multiple different parts, a low-speed bump into a bollard or another car might result in the bumper needing to be replaced. Not the cheapest repair, but definitely quite doable and probably not worthy of a complete writeoff. When the entire car is made out of a single cast that very same bump results in the entire body needing to be replaced - and that's just not going to happen.
There is an implied frame of reference that requires the continued existence of humans.

Any solution that violates this boundary condition is "objectively bad", that is, cultures that follow this solution disappear and thus lose the evolution game.
With whatever respect is due, what you're talking about a vague psychologically based theory of intelligence that actually has a very poor track record of prediction - meanwhile "dumb" statistical ML has no clear theoretical barrier regarding what it might not be able to do!

Let me say that again, if you believe that there is a specific test that AI today will fail tell me it, and I will show you that it either passes it today or that we can be fairly sure it will pass it in some years time.

One problem with this article, and many others of its ilk, is that they somewhat underestimate the enormous complexity of this thing we call "life". Here's an incomplete list of what the most primitive single-celled lifeform has to do:

-- create some way of sustainably separating "self" from its environment, so that all the components of downstream steps don't diffuse away. The separating material, which could be a cell wall or cell membrane, also has to allow selective exchange of raw materials in and out of the cell, and provide protection against damage to the cell.

-- design and build a chemical template (DNA/RNA in our case) which allows it to reproducibly recreate itself and all its components.

-- design the molecular machinery which builds that chemical template, and which is also responsible for reading and interpreting the template, regulating its use, and providing error correction. Instructions for creating machinery that makes the template are encoded in the template.

-- design the molecular machinery (enzymes and other proteins) that builds molecular machines, using a design language encoded in the chemical template.

-- establish a chemistry program that takes in raw materials from the environment, and converts it to energy, building blocks for the machinery and template, and allows for repair, defense, and other tasks.

-- establish and implement reliable reproductive (data backup) framework, minimally involving the creation of a copy of the chemical template, and often copying and spinning off a second, complete cell.

These are the elements of basic, independent (i.e. non -parasitic) life. As far as we can tell, the core elements (information stored in DNA/RNA encoding proteins as molecular machines) of this life solution emerged fairly early in this planet's 4.5 billion-year existence, and every other organism since then has simply iterated on the same solution -- no other competing solutions exist to our knowledge.

It thus makes sense to account for this complexity when we calculate the odds of finding life in the universe. In my opinion, the Fermi paradox is nonsense.
I see that it was discussed at the time. I was referring to the many posts that I see about Ukraine with few upvotes. The ones that seem to get upvoted are about Elon Musk or Starlink.

At any rate, I suppose if someone says something that gains the interest of the community, it will get traction. The first few comments might be important.

The one in your link was interesting because it was a 20 year old prediction:

“In his 1997 book The Grand Chessboard Zbigniew Brzezinski did say that if Europe went to war again it would start in Ukraine.”

This post, for example, didn’t develop an interesting discussion:

What does operating responsibly mean? Everyone seems to have a different definition of that.
This is already how it works for renting an apartment in the US (and often up to $75 per applicant, so each roommate has to pay!), the fact that companies don't charge you an application fee is merely convention. I'd be horrified but not surprised if we see a day where minimum wage jobs start charging an application fee to "cover the cost of background checks" or some other nonsense like that as corporate greed stretches ever further.
When I pay something via credit card in an online store, my bank's app gives me a transaction notification within 3-5 seconds. I don't know whether that means that the transaction has been fully settled, but at least it appears to be moving through the system rather quickly.

> Traditional ACH transactions take days because they're not even transmitted to the other bank until the end of the day.

From what I hear in the US, their banking system is slow to innovate outside of fintech providers. Here in Europe, SEPA Instant Direct Transfer allows ACH transactions to be settled within at most 20 seconds.
The Ford Mach-E does the same thing. There's thin box frame rails as part of the traditional ladder frame, and the battery pack actually forms the floorpan and stressed crossmembers. Without the battery pack the frame will deform because there's no lateral reinforcement, making it this weird hybrid of a ladder frame and unibody that it shares with the Model X and Ioniq 5. Most EVs like the Bolt and the Ioniq 6 are unibodies however since they're just designed like regular cars with battery packs shoved where the fuel tank would normally go under the rear seat or rear hatch floor, and the battery pack simply reinforces the floor.
They sell the wreck and recover some money that way. If the new vehicles are essentially unsalable, this will cause premiums to rise.
Come to think about it, if the universe is infinite, then every physically possible arrangement must occur somewhere.
It depends on the perspective. If you look at yourself and see you got where you are because of the help you got, that's great.

If you look at someone else, and see they got where they are because of help available to them but not you, that's crippling.

Yeah, tungsten is far too expensive. Sounds like more realistically you would have molten silicon in graphite plumbing [0]. This article claims the self-discharge rate could be made 1%/day.

There's been talk of doing solar concentration -> hot object -> thermophotovoltaic converter. IIRC concentrated solar already exceeds 40% efficiency so it doesn't make sense to add the extra step, unless you are using the solar concentration to "recharge" a heat storage system.

I buy the argument that thermophotovoltaics can become cheaper on a $/kW basis than comparably-efficient fluid/mechanical heat engines. The power per unit area is intrinsically orders of magnitude higher than for direct solar, so even if these cells are pricier than regular solar cells, they have a fighting chance. Also, both the power density and efficiency increase with temperature, and in principle the operating temperature can be higher than that of a turbine (since the materials don't have to simultaneously withstand crazy mechanical stresses and reactive chemical environment).

> The plug-ins being a mixture of free and proprietary that can't be easily extended to add features

This is not true - while there are paid (“premium”) plugins in the WordPress ecosystem, they are all open source, as they are classified as derivative works of WordPress and hence the GPL virally applies.

There are in fact some plugin resellers who sell bundles of premium plugins under the GPL - it’s frowned upon by the community, but it’s certainly legal. (At least for the copyright; trademarks are a separate story.)

Typically, with paid plugins you’re paying for access to the download system (making updates easy), and for support.

Every business will price their services to the maximum profit point that the market will bear. This is always the case in a capitalistic society.

What changed with the "free" money handouts is that the price point that market can bear increased resulting in higher profit margins than before. Supply limitations and shortages played a part as well as increased cash and hence demand from people.

As this excess savings and money dries out, the equilibrium price point will move the profit margins back to long term averages although it is a slow process.
Thank you for the English lesson, but you claim you've never encountered ambiguous overloaded identifiers that you couldn't resolve while developing a parser? "He took the lead"?

If CoffeeScript has few concurrency bugs relative to JavaScript, that’s actually quite an accomplishment. Completely barring threads, or any mechanism to achieve parallelism, JavaScript tends to deal quite a lot with concurrency.
When I try to explain this to non-programmers I often use this metaphor: Imagine that you enjoy mountain climbing, but the act of climbing the mountain causes more mountain to rise above you.

That's what we see in software development: a runaway process of elaboration and ever-increasing complexity and levels of abstraction.

It lets you use your Apple Watch to take a picture on your iPhone as long as the iPhone is within bluetooth range. I assume that the person who is asking this question somehow opened the remote app on their watch but did not realize that they had done so.
Because enshittification has a specific meaning. It's really about online services that start being "too good", possibly operating at a loss to gain users. And after they have enough users that are "locked in", they start to get worse to extract more profit from the existing users.

The car examples I gave is already pushing it. But if the new Toyota is worse than yours it's not really enshittification because your car still works just as well, and you're not locked into buying another Toyota next time. That's just them cheaping out.

DoSing the users they are signing up would be my guess. Many sites do not even do a validation step and will immediately add any submitted email to the mailing list. Your email box is then filled with tons of emails and manually unsubscribing takes a lot of effort and still only reduces the volume of incoming emails

This could just be used on its own as a way to annoy someone. Or it could be used to try to hide some legitimate email that you will receive, like if they are compromising your account somewhere that will notify you of the new login and hope you don't notice in the sea of spam.

I think that’s more of a confounding correlation. America had birth rates above 3 when it landed a man in the moon. And Europe was “highly developed” before birth rates started collapsing in the 1970s. Several highly successful American subgroups, such as Muslims and Mormons, still have birth rates above replacement.

And Asia has its own distinct issue, which is that development coincided with population control evangelism from the west.

I've grown to dislike this statement. The worst case cost of fixing a problem late is bad. The vast majority of bugs are not that, though. Some are cheap no matter when you find them.

That said, I suspect many people were used to static types that required a lot of support to name everything. In those, it was common for changes to be rather extensive in what had to change. Just look at early Java EE stuff with tons of interfaces and text config for what is commonly a single "pojo" for a while now.

Now, I don't think this is an argument against static tools. Tools are tools. If you have a specification that you can encode into types easily, do so. If the type already exists, use it. If you are exploring, take care not to encode into the type a runtime feature of the data.

> to learn a bit more about electromagnetism, so making your own solenoids is not even a bad idea

You can learn by making one. Making 24 is super annoying IMHO.

(Also, if you want to try, ready-made sewing machine bobbins are a good alternative to 3D-printing your own solenoid body.)

And about the rest of your comment: one approach would be to buy one solenoid from Amazon, to let you do experiments and set up the whole machine, while waiting for the rest of the goods to arrive from China.
