For a first gen hardware product this looks promising. Hopefully the overall UX (and particularly the resolution of the screens) lives up to the luxe / high fashion feeling you get from the website.

A big, AFAIK unstated benefit of this device is the potentially positive impact on the reader's posture. Reading-oriented tasks usually place us in a head forward posture, eventually causing musculoskeletal problems (E.G. "tech neck").

This device frees the user to take nearly any position when reading. So at minimum it avoids contributing to poor posture, but could even be worn while the user is in therapeutic positions that lengthen the spine and stretch the front muscles of the neck and core.

What I am saying is that when we buy a new sofa we split the expense in two halves, we don't measure each second each of us spend sitting on it so that the split represents EXACTLY our individual usage. Same with groceries, we don't count each grain of rice each of us consume, we are okay with some level of inaccuracy. Anything besides that would be absolute madness.

At the end of the month we still both get a pretty solid idea of our individual expenses no matter who actually paid of an item. For instance my expenses for the month are ¥2200 while last month it was ¥2500, seems like useful data, right? Who cares if one of us made a better deal than they should have on the sofa while the other consumed a few grams of rice more than other?

I am surprised this inaccuracy makes you question the reason of tracking personal finance.

Edit:

> What is the point of all that separating work if you don’t care about it not averaging out?

Maybe that's the source of the confusion, our finances are already separated, there is no extra work separating expenses. There is extra work for expenses we have in common like the sofa or groceries, in which case we do half and half even if that's sometimes inaccurate.
What's great about the free market is that your and my concept of "deserving" is irrelevant. We can have totally opposing moral compasses and intellectual opinions on all manner of topics, but the buyers determine who deserves what. And the market determined he deserved it. If you want that money, you make a better product in the market.

I think that's what drives leftists crazy - that no matter how much they hem and haw, they can't force the market to bend to their own version of morality. If you want to dethrone amazon, then create something better that free people choose with their own wallets.
(disclosure: I'm a quarto dev. But I'm also a big fan of typst)

You're right that typst is _very good_ at extensions, and likely will always be superior to quarto when it comes to that. The fundamental advantage typst has is that it's a "greenfield" project, and a very well-designed one at that, especially when compared to TeX.

> Looks like there are extensions that can be programmed, but they are more like second class citizens that you are not suppose to use normally.

We take quarto extensibility pretty seriously! "Simple" customization is available without need to program extensions, mostly through metadata configuration and classes and attributes in the document. This covers the basics like CSS, layout, document listings, etc.

For slightly more sophisticated extensions, you can create "filters" that operate directly on the document AST, either using the built-in Lua extension API or reading/writing a JSON representation (these are both built on top of Pandoc's capabilities, which quarto leverages extensively).

For reusable, packageable functionality, the extension system as it exists today is simple but certainly meant to be used "normally". It's how custom formats (the common, concrete use case is to provide different styles for particular academic journals) are defined and used.
The author actually brings this up in the article, and it seems that they are not likely to be deleted (baring vandalism due to their unique status being surfaced, I guess).

Spoiler for the interested, and it could be an artifact of the dataset the author used, but one of the commonalities between the least viewed articles is that their subject matter falls into a category that isn't usually eligible for deletion under Wikipedia content guidelines.
Do they actually taste good? Could you dilute the spice but preserve the flavor by putting one into a crockpot full of chili
This argument doesn't make sense. For one, Bezos is not the only person responsible for Amazon's success. The company literally is one of the largest employers in the U.S. and a notable employer in many other places. Tens of thousands of people contribute to Amazon's success, directly and indirectly, which in my view makes Bezo's wealth even more absurd.

Secondly, there are a ton of people who have contributed significantly to things a lot of people use. Johnny Ive and Steve Jobs were instrumental to the development of the iPhone (about 1 Billion users worldwide). The "Tetra Pak" and similar containers are used by hundreds of Millions of people every day. There are ton of other examples. Being loved/used/supported by a large share of the population does not entitle you to essentially infinite money.
Hello. Sadly no. This is something that is probably overlooked and/or neglected on a regular basis. Often when the question comes up the most pragmatic next step is to switch drug or modality to something that doesn't rely on the suspected metabolic pathway in question...
It's a very small change to the installation medium, though. Your distribution already pre-selects hundreds of packages and performs configuration -- this can be another one.

I'm a little surprised the maintainers haven't done so - but I haven't actually used the workflow. The implementation appears transparent; it registers a format with the kernel.

Maybe there are downsides. You hint at a very likely one - performance.

QEMU can do remarkably well with virtualization... but this, I'm not sure. I'm hopeful!

Anyway, with all that in mind... I think the point against requiring such extreme 'vertical integration' remains

If the argument against these two commands is it, then it's extremely trivial to resolve.
On what basis do you believe the explosion was more likely to be Israeli than Hamas? From what I've been able to glean it seems like the exact opposite.

1. Hamas is extremely willing to sacrifice their own people in pursuit of their goals.

2. Hamas was making homemade rockets out of water pipe. Far less reliable than Israeli munitions.

3. Isreal has demonstrated over and over that they will bend over backwards to minimize civilian casualties despite Hamas literally using them as human shields.

4. Israel is not shy about taking credit for bombings even if civilians were causualties when they have credible evidence of Hamas presence.

5. Hamas are documented liars in the region and even their Arab neighbors don't trust them.

Balance of evidence makes it far more credible that Hamas is trying to use their own failure to gin up support.

Do you have real and credible evidence to the contrary?
Tell HN: Google not taking back Pixel 6 Pro for Pixel 8 Pro
My wife bought a Pixel 8 Pro, partially because the page (Germany) said they would take back a Google 6 Pro paying EUR 250.

She did sent the phone, wich was always protected, and got the message they value it with EUR 0 and won't take it back.

I don't understand their reasoning, perhaps they got too many phones they can't sell.

Offering to take back phones for EUR 250 to get people pay >1100 EUR for a new phone and then not taking it back is not very customer friendly.
You are entitled to your opinion of course, but just recognize that the sole reason Bezos is rich is that millions of customers and investors disagree with you. He's only as rich as people find his work to be of value.

My thoughts are that the press (and moreso twitter) has a very skewed way to report stuff. It is designed for entertainment value and not for rigor, and also to push a narrative.

Having two sets if inputs regarding somewhat similar events allows you to do a reality check. For example, you can compare civilian infrastructure damage footage from Gaza and that of Ukraine and arrive to some conclusions.

Well, MS does something even worse: trying to transform the, in the past, rather open Windows eco-system into a walled garden. Hell, you have to go into the settings to allow installation of non-MS vetted "apps" from sources other than the Windows app store. As this includes Firefox as a browser alternative, is MS really begging for another anti-trust case? And that goes bog standard third party software as well, e.g. printer software from Epson. Really, WTF? What is Windows, incl. 10 now? A real OS or another clicky-shiney mobile OS?

Don't answer the question, since Win 11 tries to show adds, it is pretty clear MS is going...
The next aspect is capability. 4wd/awd is nice, but in winter on mountain trails you want ground clearance too.

And finally, price is a big part of it. Some of us don't want to be saddled with a 15 year payment and interest, on top of the premium you still pay in this economy for any car. Used cars can be had for a 10th of the cost of new, and EVs are even more expensive. Why buy EV at all when ICE is cheaper? For a "regular" consumer car, EVs can be price competitive, and would have been really competitive back in the days of the big rebates. But today, more capable EVs are quite a bit more than ICE.

In 10 years hopefully offroad and heavy-duty EVs will be cheaper (and more available - I don't see any F350/F450/F550 EVs). But today there isn't really an option.
Astronomers Discover Unprecedented Radio Burst from 8B Years Ago
In the west, or in relatively free societies, it is true that one's wealth is basically proportional to their contribution to society. Inheritance too, if someone contributes a great deal it's their choice what they want to do with it. If they want to leave it to their offspring then who are we to disagree?

Only in socialist societies are people who contribute nothing the richest - e.g. North Korea.

Regarding wealth growth while not working, what are you trying to get at? This is such a simple concept that it barely requires an explanation. Rich people don't earn money per hour worked, by definition. You'll never be rich if your income is proportional to the hours you work. You have to do something that's scalable, and thankfully with Industrialisation a lot of things are.

If some of the so-called "radical left" policies that have been proposed were to be implemented, the rich would still be able to afford multiple staffed mansions and a yacht. I think that counts as a reward for their hard work.

People would still be able to amass enough wealth to do whatever they want for themselves and their family and friends, they just wouldn't be able to amass so much money that its gravitational field starts to warp all of society.
Okay good, so we’re on the same page that NYT will lie and be dishonest for commercial purposes and isn’t an outlet of journalist integrity.
How would you do it given that you can't know ahead of time which articles have been deleted? If you pick a random int from 1 to N, there's a probability that you'd get a bad result. If the proportion of bad pages is greater than good pages (a not-unlikely hypothesis given spam) then repeatedly picking a random int from 1 to N will take a few rerolls.

I agree that rerolling is probably a fine strategy, but it's not obvious that everyone would be willing to just trust probability like that. In fact, if you set up your own wiki with 99 bad pages and 1 good page, hitting the random article button won't work most of the time.

You could of course pick a random number from 1 to M, where M is the number of valid articles. But that runs into the same problem of how do you map the 1-to-M number back to an actual article id?

This method may be biased, but it's constant performance.

(I still prefer just keeping all valid articles in memory and choosing a random one of those. There are only 7M as of October, so including the deleted pages, there's probably ~70M, which is on the same order as HN's total item count. Heck, even creating one file per valid article on disk and doing a random search with "find . -type f | shuf -n 1" probably wouldn't be terrible if you cache the result every few seconds, though that'd also be biased in its own way.)
Reaping the rewards of climate change that we've been warning about for decades, but no 'I'll just turn the AC up, lol' continues to be the standard american refrain.
Even if your process is destructive, you can still use statistics to get a probabilistic verification. For example, buy 10 chips, verify 9 randomly. If all are clean, then there's 90% confidence your chip is clean as well. More realistically, you would collect samples (a certain %) from a large batch to check none is compromised, and then take corrective measures to secure your supply chain. This kind of technique might be significant in highly sensitive applications like electronic voting.

> Wait, I'm getting a weird brain wave. Could it be because any lawyer representing Trump will get targetted, disbarred and destroyed?

"Any" is false, therefore the question yields false. I'd suggest watching the video again, but I assume that was too long for you — if so, (1) I recommend the "speed" button as this guy is quite watchable at double speed, and (2) it's a tier list and it starts that list with the most competent ones, who are all counter-examples to your premise because they're not in trouble.

Before the list, he basically asks your question but phrased differently.

> Also, what Man? I have no idea who that guy is, it's enough that he's a Trump hater, you don't need any conspiracy, jsut the one guy who doesn't like Trump.

(1) Are you unfamiliar with the phrase "The Man"? (2) Needs a lot more than one person as there are a multiple cases in multiple states, and it needs a judge/jury to agree with the prosecution.

> You don't like Trump, so you went and google for whatever link you could paste here as "proof" and that was it, that was your process

Nope, I was already familiar with this specific lawyer for the way he explains other legal topics. I just looked him up directly to see what he had to say on this topic. Hence why I wrote in the previous comment "I have reasons for trusting this channel specifically, I do not trust YouTube collectively".

> Plus I asked you how can you tell the difference between "actual crime" and a political witch hunt.

The important thing about a witch hunt, the defining characteristic even, is the lack of any objective evidence.

The important thing about a successful prosecution under the current systems in most of the world, is the presence of evidence.

In the case of Trump's lawyers, the ones who got into trouble did so by signing their name to untrue statements made under oath, emailing conspiratorial messages from their (other) employer's workplace that they then sued to keep secret, recording themselves on CCTV or dictaphones, etc. — all stuff with a surprisingly clear trail of evidence.

(Not germane to the point, but contrary to what you think you asked, it didn't seem like you were asking «how can you tell the difference between "actual crime" and "a political witch hunt"» but rather between "crime" and "a dictator looking for any excuse to throw their enemies away", which is a very much harder pair of things to differentiate because any competent dictator would just rewrite the rules of the game so they always win — "lawful evil" in D&D terms, whereas the things that are troubling Trump's lawyers are only troubling the specific lawyers that appear to be missing the "lawful" part of the alignment, which is kinda a big deal for a job that has "law" right there in the name).

Sure but I think when you get down to it, the thing people take issue with is the fact that companies can be owned like this in the first place. It creates real-estate like dynamics on a thing that can expand indefinitely. The idea that I can own 50% of a company and that I retain 50% ownership when the company (in the band of people sense) grows to be 100,000x the size is in a lot of ways really dumb.

If my sole proprietorship goes from 1k to 1M annual revenue then it's easy to argue that I absolutely earned all that money. If a bunch of people join the company on that journey to 1M then it's a lot less clear how much I did and what work I have a legitimate claim to the fruits thereof. I think we're so used to the current state of employment contracts just being contractors with 401k's that we don't consider that it could work differently.
It's crazy how much damage can be caused by the failure of a $10 part, the toilet flapper valve. An apartment on the 7th floor of my building had a flood once and it went right down to the ground floor, causing damage to half a dozen other units.

> They also damaged the valve that manages water flow from the tank to the bowl.

This seems rather dubious. I don't really see how an idiot tenant could damage the flapper valve through being aggressively clueless. On the other hand, how long was it since the OP replaced the flapper valve? They are supposed to be replaced every few years. It seems more likely that the problem was a combination of the tenant being an idiot (flushing baby wipes) and poor landlord maintenance of the property.

Bezos net worth = 152 billion https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/jeffrey-p-be...

US population = 332 million

152 billion / 332 million = $457 per person (I was over estimating!)

US debt = 33.6 trillion https://www.pgpf.org/national-debt-clock#:~:text=The%20%2433....

152 billion / 33.6 trillion = 0.45%

Wow, I underestimated what Bezos' wealth could pay off in our national debt by an order of magnitude! It could only pay 1/10 of what I thought - only 0.45%! Incredible how much debt the US government has.

In terms of your own situation, assuming you are not disabled and are a healthy adult, then you need to start thinking longterm. Not "how can I become wealthier today", but "how can I become wealthier over 30 years?" The choices you make every day compound. You should work on a positive outlook, getting real skills, and trying to improve your situation every day.
