Sorry, I should have been clearer. Those switches work great with fans that are already hardwired for a switch in the wall but a lot of modern fans (in my experience, maybe because I was buying cheap!) don't bother with that and have their own wireless system of some variety to control fan speed, lights etc.

My solution to that was to buy a Zigbee controller to go inside the fan. I wish Lutron sold some kind of standalone fan controller you could shove in there but alas.
Could be, except it's unlikely to be put on the first page, so at the very least, this integration is leaking the title, classification and authorship - and through that, existence - of a potentially sensitive document.
Yes that one.
Your brother-in-law will go from working 8.5 months a year to 11.5 months a year, so it makes sense he would earn more

He will never be able to match a teachers pension with 401k though...he might regret it when he is still working and his teacher friends have retired

With expected lifespan, a teacher pension can be worth over a million dollars...zero chance a 401k will deliver half that for most salaries
That is not what they banned, I strongly suspect that is already illegal.

Also, your "my team" take is bordering on, if not racist. There is no "other team", they are diverse individuals who have opinions that differ from yours.
In California it was the same. A pedestrian is the vulnerable party in any interaction with a motor vehicle, so it makes sense that the pedestrian always has the right of way. But, it was still illegal for a pedestrian to "jay walk". So, if you, as a driver, hit a pedestrian crossing outside an intersection, both you and the pedestrian could both be cited. This year, "jay walking" was decriminalized in California-- and, it turns out pedestrians still try to avoid being maimed/killed by cars even without the threat of fines.

Even with right of way, and decriminalizing "jay walking", the pedestrian can still be assigned some portion of fault in an accident, which e.g., may prevent the pedestrian from successfully suing the driver to pay for medical costs.
Yeah, it sounds like there's a considerable misunderstanding of the service YouTubeTV provides.
Peaceful assembly is speech
The government had more than 60 years to do this themselves, and haven't. They had a decades head start and squandered it. If the government were so competent then we wouldn't be having this conversation.

If you think there is something wrong with the American government specifically, which doesn't effect enlightened progressive European governments, then I direct your attention to France and Arianespace's own failure to innovate.

> Criminals will just use linux

It's far more difficult than that.

Most Linux contributions are made by multi-billions companies like IBM/Redhat. They would not risk to contravene to law. For example that it conforms to the law, look at WiFi drivers. There are many requirement by local laws on which band to use, what kind of traffic is authorized, etc. The WiFi drivers (most of them opaque binaries) conform to each country law.

To make Linux not lawful, you would have to create your own kernel with your own altered drivers, except you can't modify binaries.

Even then how could you make you system unidentifiable? How would you have control over booting your modified Linux in a commercial computer that uses UEFI? How would you know that the commercial CPU is not phoning home through the Intel Management Engine?

You would have use a FPGA CPU, your own designed hardware and a trusted OS but at the end you will always rely on the work of thousands people and hundred companies.
Yep. Building a project that needs some LLMs. I'm very much of the self-hosting mindset so will try DIY, but it's very obviously the wrong choice by any reasonable metric.

OpenAI will murder my solution by quality, by availability, by reliability and by scalability...all for the price of a coffee.

It's a personal project though & partly intended for learning purposes so there is scope for accepting trainwreck level tradeoffs.

No idea how commercial projects are justifying this though.
In my experience, administrative process that was previously done by a bunch of administrative assistants and then "computerized" around the year 2000.

It does vary. I'm not saying that in cities like Boston and New York, literally no one would ever get a ticket, but people pretty much will take whatever they can get away with for the most part. Historically, West Coast cities were considered to have at least a modicum of enforcement but I expect that's very scattered these days.

So, yeah, there's technically a crime of jaywalking but in practice it's mostly limited to whatever you feel you can get away with absent being run over.

Fine pricing in my opinion, pretty generous free plans too.

Why is AWS SES not an option? The pricing is fine too.
Legitimate question, not trying to be snarky, is this not self-evident to you? The fighting in Donbass eventually leading to a hot war between Ukraine and Russia doesn't seem like a step up in the fighting? Israel dropping enough JDAMs into the Gaza strip to turn Khan Yunis into crunchy sand doesn't feel like things are getting worse? The political situation in the Black Sea feels like it has slowly but surely gotten more tense, the sites of the Yugoslav wars are heating up...

I will guess that a class action is off the table because they imposed a mandatory binding arbitration clause (yup, https://www.t-mobile.com/responsibility/legal/terms-and-cond...). And forced binding arbitration is legal because the Supreme Court seems to be owned by corporations and billionaires.

I suppose we could file complaints with the FTC and the FCC, but I suspect it will not help. After all, they probably got thousands of complaints about Comcast, but that didn't prevent Comcast from taking over the media world.

T-Mobile used to be one of the better ones. But it was probably inevitable that they would succumb to the enshittification process that is devouring the corporate world.

> In other words, people with driving experience are usually safer, more considerate as pedestrians.

A great example of this is pedestrians in San Francisco. I've never seen more entitled oblivious assholes that pedestrians there. They seem to have no situational awareness and blithely jump out in front of cars. One of my favorite stupid pedestrian tricks is them jumping out from between parked cars crossing without so much as turning their heads to look for cars.

Thankfully I don't have to deal with SF pedestrians very often. The city very obviously hates cars but is decidedly dependent on them existing. The pedestrians there act dumber than a deer in the rut.
Fairly good article as to why removing time zones is a bad idea: https://qntm.org/abolish

(The article is still relevant with metric time/weeks)
If you can't "stop in a dime" somewhere you might expect pedestrians, either the speed limit is too high or you're speeding.

You mention drivers cutting in front and pedestrians running out into the street, but not drivers who aren't paying due attention or who think that amber lights are advisory at best and a signal to speed up at worst. I'm one of those saps who actually crosses at pedestrian crossings even where there's no obligation for me to do so, and I make a habit of counting how many cars run an amber light when I come to traffic lights. I've found that you can guarantee at least one will, even if the speed limit is low enough that they could literally "stop on a dime", and more than likely, you'll get up to three doing the same.

And then there's the number of times I've seen people run reds, including at a pedestrian crossing where I wouldn't be alive if I didn't trust drivers.

So, I'll have more sympathy for drivers when they stop running lights, and until then I'll continue to turn my head towards oncoming traffic when I cross so the driver who might end up killing me has my face seared into their brain.
This focuses on compute capacity but wouldn't the algorithmic improvements be much more important in bang for the buck at this stage as there's so much low hanging fruit as evidenced by constant stream of news about getting better results with less hardware.

> I'd suggest taking a look at what the military pays before you make the claim no poor....All the kids will be well fed

to this point, there are a lot of military families on food stamps.

plenty of hillbillys and hoodrats. plenty of bad areas near military bases, too.

but living on base or around base leads to a pretty strong monoculture. you also have a motivated cadre of military spouses -- who are often nurses and teachers -- and who often have to work hard to get jobs at a local school or hospital. you often get qualified teachers and nurses far exceeding the level you'd normally find in the rural areas near bases.

In the US, JCS chief Milley and some other guy (SecDef?) made a deal between them - and informed underlings - that if Trump reaches for nukes, nothing is released without the okay of one of them.

The land of the free has 50 states with various laws. Luckily mine is freer than most and we have no jaywalking laws. However, the pedestrian must yield to traffic but is allowed to cross when it’s safe. I suppose a city could enforce their own traffic law and make it illegal.

Note that like most laws, Jaywalking laws tend to make more sense when you read them. Here's the law in New York:

https://law.justia.com/codes/new-york/2015/vat/title-7/artic...

1152. Crossing at other than crosswalks.

(a) Every pedestrian
crossing a roadway at any point other than within a marked crosswalk or
within an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection shall yield the right of
way to all vehicles upon the roadway.

(b) Any pedestrian crossing a roadway at a point where a pedestrian
tunnel or overhead pedestrian crossing has been provided shall yield the
right of way to all vehicles upon the roadway.

(c) No pedestrian shall cross a roadway intersection diagonally unless
authorized by official traffic-control devices; and, when authorized to
cross diagonally, pedestrians shall cross only in accordance with the
official traffic-control devices pertaining to such crossing movements.

So what's criminalized isn't crossing the road - it's crossing without checking. Which seems like a good idea to me. Looking on the other side of the spectrum, Wyoming's law is:

(a) Every pedestrian crossing a roadway at any point other than within a marked crosswalk or within an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles upon the roadway.

(b) Any pedestrian crossing a roadway at a point where a pedestrian tunnel or overhead pedestrian crossing has been provided shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles upon the roadway.

(c) Between adjacent intersections at which traffic-control signals are in operation pedestrians shall not cross at any place except in a marked crosswalk.

(d) No pedestrian shall cross a roadway intersection diagonally unless authorized by official traffic-control devices. When authorized to cross diagonally, pedestrians shall cross only in accordance with the official traffic-control devices pertaining to the crossing movements.

Which is similar, except for (c), which only matters when you're close to a crosswalk - and almost certainly, on a busy road.
Don Pettit is my favorite astronaut. I loved watching all his ISS videos where he did wacky experiments and nerded-out about capillary flows, static attraction and similar stuff.
He's also a renowned photographer and has taken some of the coolest space pictures from the ISS. He actually refined the guidelines for shooting pictures thru the glass windows of the station.
I hope that they fly him again soon; I can't wait to see what he'll come up with next!

Show HN: I made a minimalist note manager similar to Notion
Hey! I have been using many note managers for years: Onenote, Workflowy, Notion... but none of them were perfect for me.

That's why I made Fluski. Some of its characteristics are an infinite outline of pages, and that all blocks are collapsible and expandable.
Coming soon bi-directional links, offline mode, databases, and much more!
If you find it interesting, I would love for you to try it and hear your feedback! - https://fluski.com.

Also, there is a short Demo video in the Product Hunt post: https://www.producthunt.com/products/fluski
On the other hand, there is value in being lazy in the right places.

Like, in our first configuration management, we were strict and anal about testing everything. Add a new property for a config file? Needs a unit test for the default value, needs a unit test for overriding the value. This resulted in so many dang tests, so it was great, wasn't it? Eh. You kinda change one default value and 32 tests across multiple cookbooks fail and it's a big hassle. So you stop changing and improving things.

In our new configuration management, we're much more coarse about testing. Setup a consul server, setup a patroni cluster, see if the patroni cluster elects a leader and ships archives to pgbackrest. If it does, the important 90% of the system is probably setup right. Maybe check that a few important metrics are shipped via telegraf and filebeat looks at the right logs, too, that'll be 95% - 99%. The other 90% going wrong after that won't be caught in tests anyway because they tend to be based on business needs in prod.

Once that works, why bother testing that ansible can write a variable into a file if the template is changed? Maybe if there is some computation in there, but more often than not, these computations are hard to setup correctly in a test environment, so eh.

This is similar to how someone gave me shit years ago about not writing tests for the initial configuration loading and dynamic module loading of a custom application server. The thing is, if I break this in a way I didn't catch, it will break QA and every single local test as soon as I push that and many people will yell at me.
Nah, it’s already started.
AWS is extremely overpriced for nearly every service. I don’t know why anyone else outside of startups with VC money to burn or bigcos that need the “no one ever got fired for buying IBM” guarantee would use them. You’re better off with Lambdalabs or others which charge only $1.1/h per A100.

Also that is a 8xA100 system as others have noted, but it is the 40GB one which can be found on eBay for as low as $3k if you go with the SXM4 one (although the price of supporting components may vary) or $5k for the PCI-e version.
