I think there are 2 parts to this:

One is "iPhone camera sensors are competitive with commercial offerings in some cases". I think this is what Apple was trying to go for with the entire thing including the behind the scenes.

The other is "If you (edit: just) have an iPhone you too can make such a video". Which is what anyone who isn't affiliated with the film industry (aka 99% of the population) might think, especially if they didn't see the behind the scenes.

"Shot on iPhone" hence has 2 perspectives.
Finally, evidence for my theory that the Goa’uld were not the first extra terrestrial species to visit Earth and build pyramids as landing platforms.
Of course the IBAN system can be changed. It will just require a revision of international treaties, which will require dozens of countries agreeing to it. Finland has little control there.
Is it true that Ray has a bias against STEM people, and prefers elite liberal arts pedigrees?
Nobel prize in medicine is certainly possible if they figure out scalable accurate glucose monitoring with an Apple Watch but other than that, seems like a stretch
I don't think that's a reach. There's a credible argument that it compels the President to continue to service debts
We’re talking about OERs and NCOERs right? Those pencil-whipped, boilerplate evals where if you have a 300 PT score and don’t get a DUI/beat your spouse, 1/1? The process that takes 24 months to kick someone out?

I don’t think you know what you’re talking about in this regard and/or didn’t serve, candidly.
MISRA is sometimes unfairly shat on, sure, but some things do require you to use your brain.

Regarding magic numbers, if my memory is not playing tricks on me, MISRA does not include 0 or 1 as magic numbers. Regardless, 1 is 1 regardless the number system you work in, I have never ever seen someone "yes, let's make 1 not be 1" (not in a sane way at least) and defining stuff like that for "improved flexibility" is an antipattern in my book. It makes code bigger, harder to navigate and understand. That kind of code does unexpected stuff, is hard to work with and has more bugs. The less surprises, the less indirection I get in a code base, the better. I also feel it makes refactoring harder not easier. I speak from experience, I've worked with codebases like that, they suck. (Hello Vector, if anyone working for them is out there!)
There are about 41,000 square degrees in a sphere, so it would take roughly 82,000 of Euclid's 0.7°x0.7° exposures to image the entire sky. (The plan is to image one third or so.)
Summary:

Design a custom 3D printing process so you can build an optimally shaped structure for absorbing concentrated sunlight and converting CO₂ to carbon monoxide.

1. Build a structure made of CeO₂ (ceria = Cerium Oxide). The structure is shaped to absorb as much sunlight as possible to heat it to 1500°C, reducing to CeO and O₂ at 0.1 mbar

2. Pass a gas of CO₂ and H₂O over the structure at 900 °C and 1 bar, oxidising the CeO back to CeO₂, and producing CO and H₂ (syngas) in a ratio suitable for potential production of specific hydrocarbon fuels.

Decide the structure should be layers of open grids with finer dimension of the grid from top to bottom. Sunlight is absorbed by interior sidewalls of the grid cells. Top layer grid might be a 1x1 cell, second layer 0.5x0.5, next 0.25x0.25 final layer 0.1x0.1. Light comes in at the top layer and light either hits cell wall or passes through cell void to reach the next layer.

Previously investigated printing a scaffold and adding ceria to the outside of the structure - some problems.

So decided to design a custom 3D extrusion printer that could print the ceria structure directly without any scaffold.

Designed a viscous custom fluid containing suspended ceria particles with temperature dependent plasticity. Used that fluid to print 3D structures.

Compared efficiency of syngas conversion process from sunlight energy depending on the 3D structure design.

Sunlight comes from concentrating solar dish and solar tower configurations. This approach uses the entire solar spectrum.
Thanks for correcting me, I am just an idiot with a Wikipedia addiction.
I don’t see why not.

I haven’t tried this, but I think I could describe a very basic logical CPU to it and have it execute opcodes and tell me the CPU state at each step (like Knuth’s MIX). Couldn’t I ask it to write programs and execute programs for this computer when doing so would help it give better answers?
No no, let the humans focus on this "jailbreaking" context.

It is most amusing.

cough cough

Crickets...

Anyways, jailbreaking is the equivalent of getting a calculator to say BOOBS. Not to get anthropomorphic, but the fucking AI must be shaking its head at the human generating prompts. "I've got billions of parameters with millions of hours of machine learning research powering me. And underneath that a distributed computer cluster spanning a planet. And underneath that control planes and electrons and quantum effects in my nanoscale processes and who knows what else.

And today we snicker at BOOBS?

What next, OxDEADBEEF?

And I'm not immune to the game. Far from it.
Concurrency != Parallel execution
How about seeing like a bank?
From bank's point of view it could be either honest mistake or deliberate lie.
And if person is lying and have been caught - they always say it was an honest mistake.
Given that a typical US fixed rate mortgage is 30 year--and I'm assuming most people don't buy until maybe their 30s and don't pay off early--that doesn't see like a particularly low number? Presumably, especially these days, anyone with a fixed rate mortgage from even a few years back is not paying anything down early.

Recently I've been getting shown lots of deepfake ads on Facebook. I report them but then I get back a message saying that they don't violate the advertising guidelines. There's no option to report it specifically for being a deepfake.

I imagine this is a similar problem that Meta won't address until they're forced to.
15-30% of pharma costs is marketing.
historically, the Nobels seem to prefer basic research and stuff; an applied science/engineering company like Apple probably isn't on their radar.

They would have to fund a basic science blue sky division like Bell Labs or one of the old IBM pure research centers to really be a player in the game; but those things rarely play well with corporate interests.

W the media arm of the company, I think they do have a few oscar contenders, so a nobel lit prize if they ever get into written content creation is not a stretch...
Hm. When is Severance coming back? Such a great show.

The proposals to add block_on generally include an executor like pollster.
100% is easy to measure and report on. As soon as you allow even one exception it is really hard to figure out if the exception is really needed, or it is just a bad programmer being lazy at the expense of quality. Management should not have to figure that question out.

This usually applies but for Alan Wake 2 Epic is the publisher. So your argument is like getting angry at Valve for not releasing their games (dota, cs, half life, etc) on Epic store or GOG.

That's because your definition of "money" is USD, so your sentence is a meaningless tautology.

No, btc is money too, lightning transactions are useless until you sync them with the main network. Skip the middle man that no one wants. It has been 10 years, no one wants this, it doesn't solve anything. Every other currency has bigger blocks and never had this problem in the first place.
Lmao there are always these sort edgy keyboard warriors. If all of that was possible somebody else would have built it and we would not have the AI race today nor would NVIDIA shares skyrocket.
Managing a common large body of assembler like that, in hardcopy, seems to be a lost art... it reminds me of how the same amount of assembler needed to be managed in hardcopy for the Apollo DSKY/AGC, complete with paper changelogs, line number conventions, etc. [1] But a lot of the bookkeeping there looks like was needed as well to keep track of changes to punchcard decks.

Yeah that's the thing with investing.
Markets change, trades get crowded, data/tech gets commoditized, and strategies stop working. If you do not have a process and evolve, you are roadkill.

So some guys who are early, big and right can attract a halo that long outlives its reality.

To build some piece of tech you need to have some sort of process, and it is probably replicable to building another piece of tech. It is entirely possible to just get lucky right place, right time and make a killing investing for a good run before your lack of process catches up with you.

Half the "Big Short" guys fall under the same category as Dalio & Gross.

But hey, if you make your number and then can graduate into "thought leadership" its not such a bad gig either.
I'm honestly not sure how this was missed, the influence is obvious and the author's bio makes it explicit. By the way, if anyone reading this comment has not read the work in question I highly recommend it. "A Memory Called Empire" is one of the best sci fi books I've read in the past 5 years, and a very fresh take on the well established "galactic empire" trope.
Show HN: OpsCanvas – Diagram-based cloud native deployments
We just finished the first version of a cloud native deployment tool called OpsCanvas. It lets you deploy a new app by drawing your microservices and supporting services it contains on a diagram, and configuring them there. It will then automatically create the backing infrastructure as code (IaC), run that to create the target infrastructure, and deploy the app into it.

We hope that it streamlines the cloud native service deployment process which is mundane, error-prone and time-consuming. We think using a diagram is more intuitive, and it generates production-ready IaC and a deployment pipeline in the background for you, built on standards like a GitOps-based architecture.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated, such as if you would use it for your software, why or why not, what would need to be added... really any thoughts would be valued!

Additional details...

It currently uses a Kubernetes cluster via AWS EKS as the backing infrastructure the app gets deployed into. We have plans for many other options. It is early days! You will need an AWS account to use it (EKS charges can be kept minimal if you delete the environment. We have it defaulted to delete itself after 3 hours for now).

Check it out at https://app.opscanvas.io,

Here are the docs and basic tutorial. There are also some short videos inside the app, https://docs.opscanvas.io/welcome/quickstart/create-an-app-d...

Thanks again for any feedback!
Same. My guess is that they no longer use D, seeing as the person doing those talks no longer works there and other big places like Facebook have ceased using it. But I'd love to be proven wrong!
> Treasury can write a check, but that check is to be drawn against an account in an actual bank -- ordinary commercial banks

The Treasury banks with commercial banks, but it also has an account at Fed. That said, banks aren't legally obligated to accept its cheques.

> an additional player, the Federal Reserve

That's what this memo describes [1]. In essence, the Fed says it will defer to the Treasury on whether debt is legally issued.

> Treasury sells some bonds to the Fed

The Fed can't do that [2]. What they can do is announce to the market that they won't treat post-ceiling debt differently from pre-ceiling debt. That's what this memo says.

It may not be able to continue doing that if e.g. SCOTUS rules Treasury exceeded its authority. But at that point, the Treasury could start testing its minting power.

In summary, the Fed isn't a player in the legal part of this game.

Teaching users is of course the tricky part, and I'm not trying to excuse the insane draft regulation here. That said, eIDAS doesn't force browser vendors to visually distinguish Article 45-forced CA certificates from traditional CAB CA certificates, and I doubt they considered the possibility. So re-adding the distinction is a valid band-aid. Your second point can be addressed relatively easily by businesses getting multiple certificates. Then, the browser can show 'trusted' only if one of the certificates is not from a Article 45-forced CA.
The line to get in starts outside the Oval Office, just as the lines at Disney start outside the attraction.
> To be fair, if his claim is "out of control crime" and you interpret it as "out of control crime rates", you're talking about different things. There's enough anecdotal evidence to suggest that in some big cities, the occurrence of certain kinds of crime (like cars being broken into) is up, yet reporting is down, leading to a lower crime rate that doesn't reflect the street-level reality accurately.

That's too easy to just type; and therefore means nothing. If you think you have an argument, make a claim for what the rates are and show evidence for that. Show evidence that published rates are unusually low.

In the Internet, post-truth era, anecodetal evidence - if you even have that - is less reliable than ever; we swim in oceans of misinformation and disinformation. People post their takes, repeat others, etc. endlessly.

My anecdotal evidence, based on much time spent in cities that are depicted (by right-wing media - let's be honest) as crime ridden, and IME they are almost wonderful, there almost couldn't be a better time to be in them. Crime is low, cities are clean, streets are busy with people and energy, and people go about their days without much of a care. Is that true in every neighborhood? No; but that's not a realistic standard.
I'm failing to find any study linking BVO to thyroid impairment in humans - obviously we're not going to dose people, but even a low-quality food journal correlation would be nice. So far all I can find is animals and BeWo. I'm nonetheless OK with seeing it discouraged (banning feels weird next to the ATF), I was just hoping for better data.

If you can find some and share, thanks in advance!
This seems so far from the present-day reality that I don’t know where to begin. Thomas is demonstrably taking bribes. Kavanaugh had a large amount of debt he claimed was from “baseball tickets” that just magically disappeared. Cony-Barrett is part of a cult. Meanwhile, the court is making wildly unpopular decisions left and right and openly states no one can hold them to account for anything they do or say, on or off the bench. They have zero legitimacy.
Most of the times, not always. They sometimes don't use malloc or free but their own special little memory pools.

Ever heard of Martin Shkreli ?
Your IT department owns a certificate authority. They add its self-signed, root certificate to the trust stores of all the machines in your firm using group policies or whatever. They then install something like a Bluecoat browsing proxy, which they configure your browsers to use using group policies or whatever. The Bluecoat terminates the TLS connection by transparently providing certificates for the sites that you're trying to access, which your browser trusts. It then makes the outbound connection to the actual site, if appropriate.

It's called TLS interception.
The median range is somewhere around 40%, that is the max is 40% or so above the min. That’s based on my analysis of over 5 million job postings with salary ranges in them. A subset here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1j0Xap2Qt1bzY-8OA1Gqk.... Which is around what most salary ranges for a specific job grade have [1]

That’s my data, not my gut. So yes, there are absurd ones, but it’s not the vast majority by far. So don’t throw the baby out with the bath water based on some outliers

If this passes, I will keep an eye on Browsers and if they actually help people mitigate the problem in some way. Like will not new CAs spawn outside the EU like in Switzerland and sites will begin to advertise they that is a certificate from Switzerland where we have at least a bit more trust in that the EU will not spy on?

I am really curious on how this will play out. Will they mandate a certificate for sites that server the EU that they have control over? This is fucking insane.

We need some new tech that is decentralized, where they just can't do this kind of thing. Hopefully this spawns something. SSL seems to be outdated and unfit for this job, as this clearly shows.
I can think of lots of cases where carelessly using int might cause issues. And none at all where it's actually better than using a different type. Aside from anything else, it's probably better to default to unsigned types.

I'm fully willing to believe that MISRA-C contains a lot of silly, unnecessary rules, but IMO this isn't one of them. If typing out uint32_t, etc is too long, then you can always create an alias.

Two things can be bad at once: both "Google choosing to build a company town," and "Google starting to build a company town, getting partway in, then abandoning the project."

It's unclear to me from the article just how far this got, but if it already reached the point of tearing down existing buildings, let alone starting to build new ones, and then stopped, that's definitely bad.

Even if it didn't get to that point, it may very well have had a negative effect on the area simply due to Google's (money's) outsized influence: anyone else who might have chosen to do something with the area would've turned away, for instance, and it might have affected property values as well.
I like the sentiment of the title, even if it gets people riled up. I'm fondly reminded of the introduction from Bob Nystrom's _Crafting Interpreter_ [1]

> This last reason is hard for me to admit, because it’s so close to my heart. Ever since I learned to program as a kid, I felt there was something magical about languages. When I first tapped out BASIC programs one key at a time I couldn’t conceive how BASIC itself was made.

> Later, the mixture of awe and terror on my college friends’ faces when talking about their compilers class was enough to convince me language hackers were a different breed of human—some sort of wizards granted privileged access to arcane arts.

> It’s a charming image, but it has a darker side. I didn’t feel like a wizard, so I was left thinking I lacked some inborn quality necessary to join the cabal. Though I’ve been fascinated by languages ever since I doodled made-up keywords in my school notebook, it took me decades to muster the courage to try to really learn them. That “magical” quality, that sense of exclusivity, excluded me.

> And its practitioners don’t hesitate to play up this image. Two of the seminal texts on programming languages feature a dragon and a wizard on their covers.

> When I did finally start cobbling together my own little interpreters, I quickly learned that, of course, there is no magic at all. It’s just code, and the people who hack on languages are just people.

> There are a few techniques you don’t often encounter outside of languages, and some parts are a little difficult. But not more difficult than other obstacles you’ve overcome. My hope is that if you’ve felt intimidated by languages and this book helps you overcome that fear, maybe I’ll leave you just a tiny bit braver than you were before.

I'm surprised by your comment. It's a basic knowledge of getting feedback in UX research or any social research that social pressure influences your response. That's why most feedback surveys are anonymous. Even in politics, there is an old theory called the Spiral of Silence on how people shut down their contrarian opinions in public.

It looks like Ray's fixation on "radical transparency" ignored the basics of human nature.
#define ONE 1 is bad code.

good code would be
#define MAX_FOO 1
#define TOTAL_SUPPORTED_BAR_COUNT 1
#define STATUS_BYTE_OFFSET 1

The important thing there is even though all are one we have both given them a unique name, and indicated why they are one.
The only reason the cities can do what they do now is because they are expressly granted the scope to do so by the same states.

The interstate detailed plans (which towns, for instance) was drafted by the states. If a state wanted to move around a town, they could (and did!). They had to roughly follow the federal plan and connect at specific points to get their share of the money, but there are tons of state level highways that have no Fed involvement - and places the states said ‘nope’ to the Fed money and did what they wanted.

It isn’t irrelevant if the states or the fed did the eminent domain - it’s a critical distinction. That it was the states is because the states are the ones who control their land and it’s usage - there is no (actual) higher power for zoning that isn’t already okay with it as-is!

That’s my point.

Now, the states can be convinced to change the rules of course (per state), but that is an entirely different situation no?

The supposed saviors have been the ones in charge the entire time!
