I find it interesting how we can be so aware of how dogs and cats are living being who experience life and should be protected, but at the same time, we ignore that cows, chickens, pigs, etc... all have those same experiences.

We end up caring about dogs and cats, while paying for the other animals to be killed and torn apart. If the same happened to dogs, people would become violent.

It would be nice if people held consistent moral beliefs.
Dishonesty is not acceptable behavior, nor is being coy and snarky.

If that's the sentence you thought I meant, then pretending you didn't know what I was talking about was a lie and you should find somewhere other than HN to hang out.
You want to know how I know you never wrote your own C program or terminal emulator?

/r means "slash, then the letter r". \r means carriage return, which doesn't clear the line, just moves the cursor to the left margin. Unless you're on an Apple ][, in which case CHR$(13) moves to the beginning of the next line, but still doesn't clear anything. And CHR$(4) is where the real magic happens, but it has to follow a CHR$(13)!

]PRINT CHR$(4) + "INIT HELLO"
But we could already do DSP with Pulseaudio and Pipewire. I guess is making the speakers DSPs "built in" and tweakable with GUI etc? As well as actually creating the speaker DSP profiles, I guess.

The speakers safety thing seems like a completely new thing, though.

All sounds like an absolute nightmare to anyone even remotely into audio. But I guess tiny speakers are occasionally useful.
It's interesting you underline the knock off is Chinese, when half of the high quality genuine Apple parts are also Chinese.

At this point I'd be more wary of a non Chinese parts for many of the replacements.
You're absolutely right that almost all organizations have lower-hanging fruit to worry about than remote attestation, reproducible builds and transparency logging with distributed trust assumptions. Nor do they spend three years designing said transparency log.

Nor do they care about their USB authenticators being open-source hardware that uses a measured boot KDF instead of the verified boot approach. Nor do they design those devices using open-source tooling (Kicad, Yosys) or spend time and money reversing the NVCM programming and locking feature so they can lock their FPGAs using open-source tooling.

But my companies do. We endeavour to advance the state-of-the-art in trustworthy computing, similarly to how my first company (Mullvad VPN) advances the state-of-the-art of what a privacy-focused VPN service should do. :)
YMMV indeed. How does it go for folks who buy a device second hand, beyond apple care, perhaps because they can't afford Apple's first hand prices. No one is saying Apple shouldn't provide Apple care or first rate service within coverage. This is about a broader picture. As noted in the article Apple knows how long Apple care extends for any given device, and if components have been replaced. It would be fairly easy for them (and their gobs of money) to perhaps do something equitable like disable the replaced parts warnings once a device leaves apple care. IMO they shouldn't display those at all but in the interest of equity and compromise I'd settle for removal after Apple has self selected not to "care" about the device anymore.
Maybe it could also explain why we decided on hexadecimal radix e.g., each digit has 2^4 possible values.
Show us where Apple advertises this and I might believe you.
Whatever you we use that energy on will probably create heat though.
Me too! I started shooting with a Canon AE-1 and am absolutely loving it so far.

It’s definitely an expensive hobby considering the price of film, processing and high quality scanning - but still I love the process. Maybe since it is slow and you can still easily make mistakes shooting film. Makes me think a lot more about them somehow, very wholesome hobby to have.
> Something that is genuinely terrifying to set up to me is GitLab. It just has too many moving parts.

Gitlab can be installed from a repo on Ubuntu, just sayin .. something like

Realistically, no. Security is not a feature people are dying to pay for, it's just overhead. Look at Experian, on the front page again, still insecure. It's cheaper to make the defective product and say you're a little sorry, now and then.

I think it's four episodes. The only problem is that we know the outcome and series tries to keep you in suspense.
Scheme doesn't work well for very low-level code, and C doesn't handle processing source code very well. For that I'd rather use a functional language. Also, I like using different programming languages (though not necessarily in the same project).
I recently encountered a similar situation for my Macbook Pro. Touch ID sensor is paired specifically to your logic board. You must replace both if either one has a defect.

It could be true, but this is a real nothingburger of a news story. No hard evidence, no named reliable sources on record.
That seems surprising to me, when surely there's no easy way to steal a phone (iPhone or Android) and not have it completely locked and unusable. I would imagine that cars are eminently more desirable a target to steal as they're often left unattended for hours/days at the side of the road and they're typically worth far more than $1k. It's also relatively easy to attack a car waiting at traffic lights, over-power the driver and have access to the car and the keys, if the actual vehicle is required rather than just selling the parts.
That hasn't been my experience of it.

I use it only rarely, maybe once every 3-4 weeks when I'm feeling particularly fatigued but must deliver. I always find it really beneficial, and often find myself in a flow state - which, now in my 40s, happens very rarely these days.
It is down for many years already and no one spotted.
Continuously deliver good service and promote it wherever you see fit (me in this thread)

There's Monitorian to change external screen brightness, eartrumpet to give a better audio settings experience in your tray and AutomaticDarkMode to change your system theme based on some conditions (such as time).
These are the utilities I always install.
Apart from that I use ExplorerPatcher because win11 took a big step back in the start menu and task bar flyouts.
The article mentions ST Joshi a few times, who I think deserves credit not just as the foremost scholar of Lovecraft, but possibly for bringing attention to Lovecraft in the 60s and 70s. I thoroughly enjoyed his "Decline of the West", which pores over Lovecraft's correspondences trying to get a broad handle on his philosophy and aesthetics. He strikes me as a pretty complicated individual, with his early bigotry and his later slightly less malignant cultural chauvinism always being at odds with his cosmicism. And I think his nostalgic, escapist fantasy might generally have been at odds with his uncompromisingly scientific realism, perhaps contributing to his somewhat bitter and bleak view of the sciences (each straining in their own direction).

(I once owned one of those cute green Cthulhu plushies)
I think the only option to make sure it will run in the 10 years is to package the linking libraries and all the dependencies. Container (e.g. Docker) or Nix can solve this, provided that these technology still live in the next 10 years.

Actual hacker stuff on HN.

Thanks OP
They really go the extra mile, and then another mile on top of it. I guess the only "main" feature remaining essentially all other laptops have is external screen support.
Pickpocketing is quick and easy, sometimes not even a crime, and even though phones are locked, you can sell the Android phone for pieces. That's not the case for the iphone.
The only fix is to disable private relay. The people who run archive don’t like Cloudflare, for some reason, which is the service provider for private relay.
The main reason DSP is a big thing is because Linux has never focused on it - Google has with Android and ChromeOS, as has Apple and Windows, but Linux speaker audio has always paled in comparison: https://social.treehouse.systems/@marcan/111230163766956867

That leaves it up to the laptop vendor to implement hardware to perform DSP (and the quality of this varies tremendously from poor to OK). Apple doesn't use hardware for their speaker DSP (it's all software) and their speakers sound better than anything else out there. Linux now has similar functionality thanks to Asahi, and it will only get better over time.
Immigration exacerbates that problem structurally, by introducing a large population of foreigners who have less social capital and political leverage than native born people. More power to elites seems like a natural consequence of immigration.
10 year sentence for selling drugs, not taking them.
I’m in Dublin, Ireland. It is not common, but not uncommon. Kids and teenagers zip around high-footfall areas in the city centre (such as our financial district) on escooters and electric bikes, and literally grab the phones out of your hand as you’re using them. Minimal violence because they know they’d likely lose, but still pretty traumatic and the Gardaí (our police force) are two swamped in everything else to do a thing about it.

I know four people it’s happened to in two years, all four of them women.

I'm the opposite. One of the things I love about Lovecraft is how oblique the mythology is in his writings. I don't know much about Azathoth, save that he's somehow "Lord of all Things", while being a "Blind Idiot God." That seeming contradiction is tantalising and the last thing I want is to see it fleshed out.

It's fear of the unknown, after all, not fear of the things that have detailed wiki pages.
True, but we are getting more center-running bus lanes, which in the absence of street cars is at least a reasonable step forward
Just to be clear:

(a) what percentage of web pages do you think can be found by a person using a search engine, without specific prior knowledge of the content?

(b) do you believe an application in which the same percentage of features are discoverable has acceptable discoverability?
I second r/localLLAMA as others have pointed out.

I also look for LLM discussions on HN. I confess I scroll thru HN looking for LLM related discussions: this is my proxy for staying away from Twitter. I wonder if someone has made a filter to find LLM-related HN posts.

That happens if you use Cloudflare as DNS.

archive.is has a notorious feud with Cloudflare over some technical detail they care about strongly.
This article is a bit bombastic and light on details: "modern audio laptop subsystem", "advanced DSP", "the first desktop Linux platform with integrated advanced speaker DSP", "driving Linux desktop audio forward a couple decades".... while as far as I can tell there are exactly 0 new things described.

> These [DSP profiles] are all techniques that are in wide use in consumer microspeaker systems in tablets and phones, though sadly not common on laptops from most non-Apple brands.

As anyone who has bought a laptop less than 10 years old can attest, practically _all_ laptops ship with "DSP effects for tiny speakers", to varying results. Microsoft has even standarized an API in Windows 10/11 so that you literally can shop for different implementors in the Windows store (e.g. Sonic, B&O, etc.).

> EasyEffects

Article itself mentions previous work on DSP effects...

> we also have the world's first (as far as we know) open source "smart amp" implementation.

Old Nokia devices shipped with xprot which is about a decade old. Speaker protection, DSP, noise cancelling, etc. back when pulseaudio was just renamed from polypaudio. https://blog.linuxplumbersconf.org/2009/slides/Jyri-Sarha-au...
Being forced to live in a cell with your parents would be a horrible punishment.
My gf at the time had her phone stolen 2 years ago. Thought she forgot it at a cafe but after watching cctv someone took it out of her jacket like in a movie. Some coffeeshop employees will have their phones charging behind the counter but within customer reach and sometimes people steal the phones (happened to a close friend).
> Sanctions against regular Russian citizens are morally bad. They stop Russians who flee and protest the war from moving to other countries and give more power to Putin and his fascist regime, and make it easier for it to wage war in Ukraine.

It's not only bad morally but also increases their support for the war.
I’m not quite sure what they expect if they snatch an Apple device? It’d just turn into a brick in a few minutes/hours?

There is a form of explicit and implicit advertising.

Apple advertised implicitly by consistently fulfilling the promise that if anything bad happens to your iPhone, in most cases an Apple Store can fix it.

Control is a part of this implicit model. This is not a model I myself like (I prefer the more freewheeling Android ecosystem); but I can appreciate why people respond well to it. To your average person who doesn't give a shit about unlocked bootloaders and just wants a way to regularly be in touch with their family and friends, the Apple model probably works better.
I think the idea with the M-series laptops in particular is that you can drive the speakers at volumes that actually damage them very quickly ( see https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/issues/53 ). The idea AIUI is that you can use a DSP along with a physical model of the voice coil to get better sound than you would if the speakers were volume-limited.

I don't know how common this arrangement is in other laptops, but it's the kind of hardware/software integration that Apple is known for.
Have you been following the emerging RATS and SCITT specifications in IETF? Someone with your work and knowledge could be a great contributor.
My bad. What i meant is that code execution is alright rather than dealing with macro magic in yaml or excessively verbose nesting like in toml
Black 4.0 was recently released too! It’ll be great when ChatGPT has a better way to stay up to date :)
> happy accident

That’s a perfect term for this. I would absolutely believe that Apple approached this from that exact anti-theft perspective but it sure is easy to see how such a feature might benefit their bottom line. It’s a matter of looking around and wondering where the inexpensive parts are.
Thanks for your kind words, and also thanks for the link : D
I’m a bit confused. According to the Wayback Machine, dejanews.com already redirected to groups.google.com for many years, similar to how www.dejanews.com still does. So they just dropped the redirect from the plain domain without “www.”?
The problem is that in Russian the letter ё is used inconsistently. It's treated like a semi-optional letter. Most publications targeting adult readers use it only when needed for disambiguation (like узнаем vs. узнаём) or for foreign names. Children's books, dictionaries, the Russian Wikipedia, and writers who are big fans of ё for whatever reason use it throughout the text. And as for official documents, the rules have changed over time, so in effect there is no consistency, which sometimes causes problems in official paperwork and judicial cases.

A translator from Russian to English who feels that ё is not a real letter may transcribe it as ye or e; if he likes ё or wants to be faithful to Russian phonetics, he will write yo. Few are the translators who will consider avoiding an English reader's confusion as a goal.
Don’t you think they have a legal requirement to retain their business communications?
This seems very hard for a programmer to reason about. It’s odd to do this sort of flow-sensitive analysis on the CFG for a language feature that affects whether code is accepted or rejected, instead of some optimization that’s transparent to the programmer.
The government have said the Optus outage was not suspicious. Seems to have been a BGP config change gone wrong.
Anyone used it? Is it any good?
In my experience, getting the insurance or whatever for google phones is worth it since they often just replace your phone. I busted a screen and the authorized repair shop broke the mobo trying to replace it. Google replaced my phone but it was an irritating process.
I have built this here https://github.com/phil294/vimium-everywhere, and it works okay-ish performance-wise. For example, generating the click hints on this thread on Firefox takes (including FF's UI elements) takes one second, perhaps less on a fast machine. I use it on a daily basis. It needed a lot of optimizations to get to that point though. There are also a few alternatives listed.

And almost all applications support at-spi once you set some env vars! Including electron apps etc., see the readme
“Bankman would regularly flash his son a thumbs up even in the trial’s tensest moments; Fried, on multiple occasions, broke into tears during breaks in testimonies, her husband’s arm wrapped around her.”

Is that news-worthy, from the Post?
Did you know something like less than 50% of violent crimes are solved? You're making the racist assertions with not even half the data.
Sure. The anterior tilt is typically caused by short hip flexors and weak glutes/hamstrings to pull the pelvis back into a level position. I'd suggest:

1. Loosening up the hip flexors. There are quite a few good stretches you can do for this. Try these first: https://recoverathletics.com/best_exercises_for_tight_hip_fl...

2. Strengthen up the glutes. Try these: https://recoverathletics.com/the-best-exercises-to-strengthe... and https://strengthrunning.com/2019/04/glute-strengthening-for-...

Before you run, try some "glute activation" exercises to get them fired up and working properly before you begin your session. Doing a few single leg glute bridges is probably enough to get them going. Single leg dead lifts are also good, I find.

When you are running, try to focus on keeping the glutes engaged as this will keep the hips from tilting forward. You can feel when you hips are level because your body will feel much more stable - especially when running over rough ground - and you'll feel the power coming from the glutes much more.

Best of luck!
That's pretty bad for China. As I recall they import most of their iron ore from Australia for steel production. Australia is a huge metals exporter.
I can’t speak for everyone, but the company I work for takes this very seriously and does its best to comply with the law. Said that, all of it is very complicated. Most (if not all) privacy problems I observed so far are caused not by malice but by incompetence. And those get fixed as soon as found.
No one ever stole my phone, but I had everything from broken displays to dead batteries, so at least in my case this is not good for me as a owner.
Yes, if you look at the Polonius repo, this quote is featured prominently :)
Don't you use docker or build tools? Those are what use of all the memory on my computer.
My point is that VHDL/Verilog is both hardware and software. OTOH I find FPGA "programming" with VHDL considerably easier than actual embedded programming. No need to fight for CPU clocks, no indeterminism is execution time etc.

True.

Just don't try to paint it as some enlightened "rational" higher form of thought, as if trying to find peaceful solutions is somehow stupid. Just revel in the hate, and show everyone that you are exactly the same as those you pretend to be against.
Absolutely nothing there about how hardware repairs are restricted or about how this benefits the consumer.
LLM are the first interface I as.a.software engineer is impressed by.

My company also got it immediately and is rolling it out globally.

GitHub copilot is already helpful. GitHub copilot for docs (announced at GitHub next) is a game changer.

I used openai to reformulate emails and suddenly got positive feedback about my announcement emails.

I communicate with openai German and English how ever I see fit.

It's very hard NOT to see it than the other way around.

And we got so far with only one company pushing this!

There is no option for the others to alsolo out tons of money into ai.

And besides openai, ai/ml is huge in what Nvidia and others are doing with it. Texture compression, 2d and 3d generation.

What we see is also potentially something like a new operating system.

And it makes it so much more accessible.

I never had a tool like llms which are able to take a bad copy pasta of a pdf and pulling out facts from it.
Channels are, AFAIU, a reference to some point-in-time/commit/version of nixpkgs. They are exposed in the form of branches in the nixpkgs repository and used in some other places as well. A channel has a set of conditions that need to be met for it to be advanced to a newer version of nixpkgs. For the nixpkgs-unstable channel, which follows the master branch, the packages it contains need to be built by hydra and be present in the global cache before it advances (I don't think this is true for all packages, but this is the general idea). This is to make sure that users who use packages from this channel will mostly find them in the cache (if you use master directly you can often run into packages that you need to compile yourself, because they are not yet present in the cache).

The stable channels are basically "just" branched of from master (or nixpkgs-unstable? not sure) when the given point release is due (there is more to it, for example there is an effort made to make all the packages contained in that release actually buildable, called "Zero Hydra Failures" or ZHF). They will then mostly stay that way apart from the odd backport for security reasons and the likes.

Basically, it is very similar to how a larger software project might be managed with a develop branch and older releases that still receive backports.

(This is my mental model of it anyway, as a user for a few years. There are probably details that might be a bit off or not exactly accurate.)
Quoting the GP:

> People forget that PV, battey, wind costs are still decreasing.

Some insist on forgetting it. And the decrease has been exponential, with no reason to believe it will stop at the next order of magnitude.

Anyway, covering 2% of the world with anything is a huge undertaking.
