My colleague just had to replace his HP Elitebook Notebook because the battery had bulged so much it had cracked open the case.

For this to be happening in 2023 means that some manufacturers at least, seem to be not managing this potential problem at all.
Non-Poles pay through their nose at the same ATMs though. So I would think there's an incentive to place them at places with lots of tourists, which is where I find them; but then that's mostly where I have been in Poland.
This is simply is not true. Their "random" algorithm prefers cached songs on the device by quite a margin. I have playlists with more than 500-600 songs in them and can account for it first hand, since I know the songs in the playlist and some seem to never show up.

Do not believe me? Simply clean spotify's cache and look closely at somehow magically new songs start popping up in the shuffle!
I am pretty sure "type": "module" doesn't work with React Native/Expo and jest (in 2022 last time I tried).

If you Google the error you will get stackoverflow posts with hundreds of upvotes.

And that's the main problem with using ESM - 3rd party library support. It is trivial to do hello world in ESM with Node.js, but try that with 10 dependencies and quickly you will be hit errors.

Northvolt’s original factory in Skellefteå is near (well, ‘Arctic near’: 460 km along an existing rail line) Kiruna, one of the largest Iron mines in the world, so that’s one of the two material supply safe.

Industrial Sodium is made with electrolysis of sea salt; the factory is next to the Gulf of Bothany and has abundant (wind and hydro) power, so the other material supply is safe.

It wasn’t hard anywhere, but it’s straightforward in that particular case.

Stripe's Forced Refund of $46,000 from Our Account
Stripe forced a refund of $46,000 from our business accounts. This situation has left me more shocked than the news of Sam Altman leaving OpenAI.
I think that's one interpretation, but the perverse interpretation is: "If I am an effective altruist, and I will use my resources to produce the most possible good, then it's a moral imperative to acquire as much money and power as I can, to maximize the results I can achieve"
What's erratic here? If they are likely to lose most of their employees and resources then merging with the most aligned other company is not only reasonable but exactly what it says they'll do in their charter.

Maybe.

But you might overestimate technical understanding of people.

"Letting people know" comes with it's own challenges.

There are a lot of choices an OS makes without letting it's users know.

It would be quite overwhelming to communicate all. And in making choice what to communicate mistakes might be made.

Oh... oh, that hurt so much to read because it just rings so damn true.
According to this old article they are much more than simple consultants:

I'm guessing it works out how many digits to expect for each codepoint by looking at the first digit (i.e. if it starts with a 1 then it has to be 3 digits, otherwise it is only 2).

Does this mean it's impossible to type a newline character, or a backspace, for example?
I used to think you could be a 9/11 truther and still hold reasonable beliefs otherwise. I thought a lot of these people genuinely looked at the official story and related evidence with an open mind, and came to a different conclusion than I did.

But the more of them I’ve met, the more I’ve found they tend to be everything-else truthers as well: moon landing, vaccines, etc., and I tend to disregard their arguments outright. Is that fair? Maybe not. But it’s borne out of years of similar interactions, and it’s saved me a lot of time and effort.

Lately I’ve started acting similarly with doomers, almost inadvertently. If you think that e.g. climate change will make humanity go extinct in the next few decades, it’s likely you feel similarly about A.I., COVID, etc. I’m starting to shut out such claims immediately, or at least engage with them less.

There seem to be certain personality types who gravitate towards certain types of beliefs. I’m not qualified to speculate as to why they do, but sometimes simply ignoring them can be… sensible.

The whole blue/green bubble thing is how Apple got something like 80% market share in probably the most valuable demographic in the world - US teenagers. They are no going to let it become less relevant without a desperate fight.
Cool! Any pros over @hackernews_alerts_bot?
The value is there, but if they're too dumb to loot an Apple store to steal iPhones that will be blocked pretty quickly and don't even run regular software, then maybe we shouldn't expect them to understand the value of phones from other brands either.

I'd expect the HN crowd to be a bit smarter than Apple store looters though.
Apple is almost certainly aware of this at the C-Suite level; I wouldn’t even be surprised if Tim Cook were briefed.

Had Apple pulled Sunbird’s access to iMessage before information about their shoddy security coming out via third-party, they would have run the risk of playing into Google’s narrative about Apple being petty about their closed standard.

Here’s what I think (and hope) will happen:

* Apple will revoke Sunbird’s access and/or will sue them; they can almost certainly detect them via fingerprinting and other techniques

* Apple will take steps to further protect the iMessage standard

The interesting thing here is that Sunbird’s marketing and PR execution, at a casual glance, appear to be as impressive as their engineering implementation dismal, thereby suggesting the usefulness of cautious maneuvering by Apple.

Google Cloud would ideally have a role in protecting users here, too; ie blocking Sunbird from its platform on account of exposing users to such formidable risk while so blatantly misrepresenting their security posture. Apple could implore Google to consider, which could look good for GCP; while extending a mutual commitment to implementing RCS together in the interest of users at a moment when skepticism of large tech is at an all-time high.
I am stupid. Thanks. I am so used to the dollar being stronger that my brain didn't even compute that it's the other way around.

Which means we have the stronger currency AND healthcare, harharhar.
This looks great! The interface is really simple and I love that I can abstract away LLM provider concerns. I could see how this could be a nice play to overcome reliability issues with LLM providers.

> How many other money transmitters (that are not registered securities exchanges or banks) have 'tokens for sale' like Kraken?

Quite a few. In fact, all of the major centralized exchanges operating in the US are authorized to do so because they are licensed money transmitters (with the exception of some that might be operating under the NYS "Trust" licensing scheme), and none of them are broker-dealers regulated by the SEC, because until very recently the SEC has taken the position that broker-dealers are not allowed to sell crypto assets.

For years the money transmitter licensing scheme was understood to be the correct (and sufficient) licensing scheme under which a crypto exchange could legally operate in the United States. It is only since the beginning of the Biden administration that the SEC has taken the position that crypto exchanges have an obligation to register with the SEC. The Ripple lawsuit was filed at the tail end of the Trump administration (after the election), but it was not targeted at exchanges. It's also worth noting that the judge in the Ripple case found that exchange-traded XRP tokens are not securities. In other words, the SEC's assertion of authority over exchange-traded Ripple tokens was explicitly denied.

There is good reason to believe that SEC will be unsuccessful in asserting even broader authority over all tokens that are available on Kraken.
The ephemerality is the reverse to how it should be. A tweet from 15 years ago is probably still there. A blog's domain name might have expired, so its posts are lost.

So bloggers should copypaste the other blog posts they like into their own blog.
Then there wouldn't be a justification for architects and DB specialists to exist. It's a separation of skills into a designated role.
They did lose against Ripple. That’s one case law precedent right there for determining what is a security. There’s also a non-negligible chance that they are going to either lose or have a dismissed case against Coinbase. Given that this case is basically a copy-paste of that one, it’s a possible outcome.

There’s a reason why the lawmaking, executive, and judicial powers are separated in a democracy.
Despite providing ample evidence of order fulfillment, Stripe did not opt for the usual 120-day fund hold. Instead, they refunded customers after we had already dispatched the orders.
I think you describe the ideological framework that immigrants in the U.S. have. Because they've had to work hard to integrate they value what they've acquired and work hard to uphold it. The result is they increase social cohesion by their adherence to the country's shared myths/ideals, and as they must generally pursue economic integration are economically productive as well.
The warning in the second screenshot is probably relevant "Your business doesn't meet our Terms of Service and therefore legally cannot use Stripe services. If you think this may be a mistake, please contact us."

URLs are much longer, harder to remember and harder to communicate than accept header values. It also unnecessarily complicates the API. It also relies on out-of-band/non-standardized information to know which URL returns which format, where the accept headers is in-band/standardize information for specifying the return format. Seems like there are more multiple advantages.
It's best to read the article to understand why.

I found the regular expression package as a first thing to make in SML waaay too complex. You already need to have a good understanding of the elements of SML syntax to understand how it works. This is definitely not for SML beginners. I recommend "Elements of ML Programming" by Jeffrey D. Ullman for people starting to learn SML. It too has some corners, that are less great for not so mathematically inclined people, but you will definitely learn the language and have exercises.
Thanks!

Stats here are 25,000 employees, first protest was approx. 300 (~1%), which grew to 5,000 (20%). En route one protest included 68 delivery drivers which left store shelves depleted. I expect that helped highlight the impact of protest to the employees that were not yet protesting.
Very interesting except for one little detail: Moskovitz denies it.
This is a bizarre take...

Programmers have to deal with a lot of badly written programs all of the time. You'd need this functionality to either debug a program that responds differently to different values of environment variables, or to control it, because, maybe it's the only reasonable way to do so.

It's OK to say that programmers shouldn't rely on this functionality ideally, but, for practical reasons, this functionality is needed. Same happens in "pure" functional languages, for example, when you need to debug programs in such languages interactively, and struggle to create the program state that reproduces the problem, or, in some extreme cases, due to I/O being "impure" even struggle to output diagnostic information.
Ah, ok.

I did that same rewrite (alpinejs to vue3) in a project of mine. I did it for CSP reasons rather than performance/behaviour limitations despite spending quite a while getting recursive generation to work.

The next project has less untrusted input and a simpler datamodel so I went with alpine again and I've not had any issues whatsoever.

Good to know about the bugs/abandonment of petit-vue. Admittedly, I probably shouldn't have recommended it above without having used it.
Its better than ads though

What is your rule of thumb based on?

In, for example, the Netherlands the richest people pay less tax [0]. Do you think this is not the case in many other countries?

> They are also, for [..] they employ, paying tax

Is that a benefit of having rich people? If companies were employee-owned that tax would still be paid.

I don't know if that's still the case (haven't played in more than three years), but Magic the Gathering Arena (digital version of the collectible card game) used to rig the opening hands to make them "more average".

This had consequences on competitive play; they wouldn't even tell you how exactly the algorithm worked, so the only way to build a deck was lots and lots of simulations.
But wouldn't this make the problem even worse? Air conditioning will dump even more heat into the tunnels.
the london tube dates from 1863. that explains most issues.
> the problem is not on the python script side. It's a problem with tar or gzip

As it works perfectly in the equivalent shell script, I'd point the finger at Python for not wanting to handle SIGPIPE signals.
What car do you have? I've been used-car shopping for an EV and every one I've looked at here let me limit charge.
That headline is bad, not sure if it's deliberate.

The way it's phrased, it sounds like they were given two different explanations. Such as when the first explanation is not good enough, a second weaker one is then provided.

But the article itself says:

> OpenAI's current independent board has offered two examples of the alleged lack of candor that led them to fire co-founder and CEO Sam Altman, sending the company into chaos.

Changing the two "examples" to "explanations" grossly changes the meaning of that sentence. Two examples is the first steps of "multiple examples". And that sounds much different than "multiple explanations".
I implemented this a bunch of years ago in a fork of a SubSonic client. Their explanation wasn't sufficient to implement the algorithm but I did figure it out. I did like it. I stopped using SubSonic and now just use the simplistic shuffle in my media player. It's weird that I'm slightly annoyed when two songs from the same artist are played in proximity.

I believe they had a shortlist, but no one stepped up to take the job.
> ... they actually can.

Yes, it does. Even my 7 years old iPhone X does it. I use some features at very specific times, and it suggests me "do you want to do X?" around the time I do that. So the models work well.

Also, the phone generally enables optimized charging if I put it to charge too early. Scheduling to finish a couple of hours before I wake.
I am aware of this, but mining (or salt water processing) for the specific extraction of sodium metal from NaCl or others is really small

Momentum, random names and (possibly) higher latency. IIRC IPFS is particularly bad latency-wise but I'm not sure how much of that is name lookup vs file transfer, and that could be implementation specific. Name lookups are also very cacheable.
Your average home in Canada is not 3 million. And your average "homeowner" is really a mortgage holder who is going to be in a world of pain as soon as his low interest rate mortgage is renewed.

Anyway I don't get your aggression. My point was that Canadians are far worse than the article suggests: half the country should be considered poor (the renters) and the "wealthy" are one interest hike away from bankruptcy.

I think it comes across that way because they actually take the non-profit original mission and ethics more seriously than the for-profit business, which is an incomprehensible shock to most capitalists. However, it makes sense if Anthropic left in the first place because they didn't agree with sama's direction of the company, and this is just round 2 of the OAI civil war in regards to whether OAI's original non-profit mission ACTUALLY matters or not.

SapFix: Automated End-to-End Repair at Scale
General aviation airports, as would the small cities they service, would get a second life. Instead of JFK, think of training airports like KISP, KFRG, KWV, KFOX, KHTO, KNPN, KMMU, KCDW, KLDJ N07, N51, KSMQ, N14 and a host of others in the NY/NJ area.

If you use GA airports near more prominent cities, using rail transit to get to nearby larger cities is worth the disruption. For example, with these aircraft, BED would have enough traffic to Boston to justify an extension of the Red Line through Lexington and Arlington.

Yeah, it’s super weird to me too. I even got a downvote for this question. And, I can sort of understand that, but then, I haven’t seen anything that would make her accusations obviously groundless.

Well fortunately New Tube for London (this new train design) all got signed-off a decade ago. Buuuuuut, TFL only bought the trains necessary for the Piccadilly line, with "options" to buy trains later for the other lines. However, post-Covid they don't have enough money to buy them anymore, and would need the government to pay for them, which it likely won't. So I won't be holding my breath for any further improvements :-(
Hm, I didn't know about this bot. It's a new one, created in March this year. I created my bot 3 years ago, there was nothing like it then.

Looks similar, with additional functionality.

Sad, actually, my bot got zero traction and so somebody had to write their own bot, which is now more popular... So much for motivation to create new things... Oh, well.
> But it couldn't have started that way surely? - why put in place a corporate structure, board, and profit cap that would limit that.

The "Tech Executives" in the Industry have a poor opinion of Researchers/Engineers/Knowledge Workers and think that they are all naive and can be managed (i.e shafted) when it comes to business/money dealings. Any noob could see the potential in the researchers and technology and so Sam thought he could get in and then change/manipulate things to his (and his backers) advantage when the time came.

Show HN: Companies with 4 Day Workweeks
Here today to share something that may be of interest to some of you.

I reviewed existing lists online and other sources and created a refreshed list of companies that hire for 4 day weeks.

A couple of tweaks I made were, first I made sure the reviewed companies offer the true 4 day week (4x8hrs), not compressed hours, which is known as 4x10hrs.

Many companies go through a 4 day week trial and often revert to the old schedule, or they label themselves as a 4 day week company when, in fact, they have a 4.5 day workweek, or it's a seasonal thing where a short weeks happens over a single month in summer - these companies were not included on the list.

Anther rule I followed was that if I couldn't find a mention of a 4 day week as a job benefit on the company's website or directly in a job description, the company wouldn't make the list.

And finally, it's not too common, but some companies offer the benefit of short weeks to certain departments only, or to certain locations (for example, US-based employees only). Those companies are on the list.

I hope this is useful and let me know if you have any feedback.
Surely the API products are the runaway products, unless you are conflating the two. I think their economics are much more promising.
