I'm still like that -- sort of. I'm a busy dad of three active kids and have always been athletic and active, but sometimes family obligations prevent consistency for periods of time. When restarting from a low fitness level (whether, in my case, it's cycling or running) I always feel demotivated and pretty crap until I'm about 3-4 weeks into a regular (5+ day/wk) routine and have built my aerobic capacity back up to a point where I actually feel like I'm really running (or biking) again. It's demotivating for the first few weeks, but I've been through this routine enough times to know the light at the end of the tunnel isn't very far away. I think a lot of people who don't have athletic backgrounds and are just starting their fitness journey are mentally hampered by not knowing how the journey progresses, and when they can expect to start feeling and seeing changes. Also, running is non-trivial. People assume it's a natural movement pattern for humans (and it is), but it's definitely not for adults who live largely sedentary lives and are not already fit. It can be downright dangerous if not approached carefully, especially compared to lower impact aerobic activities like cycling & swimming (or elliptical or stairclimber).

tldr: people who never push themselves will never likely achieve an exercise high. Also, people starting at 0 have a much harder slog of it than those with a decent base & athletic background.
I mean, that would be predicated on it actually being possible to get access to and use their models...which in my experience is basically a limitless void. Meanwhile I spend hundreds of dollars a month with msft/oai.
You're assuming causality, and assuming less screen time would mean screen time would be replaced by activities you see as better.

One possible reason why that logic might not hold might e.g. simply be that restrictions on screen time might correlate with more involved parents.

This isn't really constructive regardless of whether you're right or not. It's completely valid to e.g. both agree that exercise is good as well as criticize a specific study on the matter.
There are many mathematical functions whose output is hard to predict and requires immense calculations. I just recently read about how they had "discovered" the 9th Dedekind number, or something like that.

Just because we can't predict what the 10th Dedekind number will be does not mean it is somehow 'mysterious". It is just mathematics, logic and programming.
They’re working on it. .NET 8 introduces the option to perform a degree of trimming on the AOT output. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/host-an...
"I've even seen more a few on military property in some crazy belief that all such places are open to public inspection."
All the auditor vids that I've seen that involve military property have been where the person doing the videoing stands on the public sidewalk or roadway easement outside the military or government building and films, which of course makes for the desired confrontation. There may be some where they're on the actual military property which can result in them being trespassed.
If I don't work out every weekday I get cranky. But it took me years to discover exercise that I would consistently do, besides running. (I like running outside, exploring new routes, listening to audiobooks.)

Turns out it was video fitness classes (and strength training with dumbbells). It's hard for me to figure out exactly what exercises to do and how to keep it interesting and varied. The different Apple Fitness instructors all have a different approach and I rotate through them.
Yeah, I have been waiting for six months. And I have a real company with a real use case. I guess demand is off the charts.
"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function" — F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Infact we can generalize this to N ideas cases.

Take two ideas. A and B. Give weight ∆ and 1-∆ to them. Multiple the positions of those ideas with the weights. This gives you a new interpolated position. Now repeat this with new position and idea C. And so on. You will quickly cover the area of convex hull of these ideas.

I think with future advanced LLMs the above scenario is achievable.
It just remains hilarious to see Google under fire for negotiating secret deals to keep companies on the play store. Apple got this right the first time.

Yes it was pretty easy even though it took like 2 weeks.

> There is a danger in overgeneralization from anecdotal evidence.

There is, and there is likewise the danger of overgeneralizing from scientific studies. That is, even if the study has been conducted without error, we must correctly understand what the measurements used were, how they relate to observable phenomena, and what they entail. A study may make a very modest claim about something really quite specific, but it is easy to misinterpret the actual results and overinfer what they entail.

Ergo, it may very well be the case that the OP has observed increased agitation with screen time, and this need not contradict the study, and vice versa.

But we must always remember that what is observed takes precedence. If you observe a genuine correlation between screen time and misbehavior personally, it makes more sense to go with what you have observed rather than the study. To quote Chico Marx facetiously, "Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?".
Two thoughts:

- watching a move is screen time

- movies aren’t as captivating anymore
To be fair London is 13% of the UK's population, whereas Munich is a little under 2% of Germany's, I'm not surprised Germany's output stays the same!
> AI requires a small upfront cost, then can do the job of thousands of people

That's the same with every efficiency improvement. Efficiency improvements (like AI) aren't zero sum. When production costs go down, competition forces prices to also go down, which then leads to more wealth for everyone not just the capital owners (even if it disproportionately benefits capital owners).

People are made redundant and then find jobs in other parts of the economy where they're actually needed. This is a painful but necessary corrective mechanism for the economy to remain dynamic and productive and innovative.

That said, I still want a global wealth tax.

Firefox for Android: new extensions will surface during the 120 release cycle
In Firefox for Android 1.120 they seem to have made some improvements for the upcoming extended addon support and have added a link to find more addons via addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/android.

Let's hope lots of apps are available soon, including including Firefox Translations.

"In anticipation of opening up the Firefox for Android extension ecosystem later this year, dozens of new mobile extensions will surface during the 120 release cycle as we continue guardrail testing."
I went through a (short) period where they were serving me ads that close together. Logged in too. Sometimes I would get one in the first 30 seconds (on top of the pre-video ads). I started to close the page immediately on getting an ad I thought was too soon and not looking at Youtube for the rest of the day. The schedule went back to being more reasonable. I have no idea if my tactic really worked personally, or whether it was just general testing that was scheduled to finish anyway.
> I can cite plenty of anecdotal evidence of what seems to be addiction. Major temper tantrums and hyperventilating when screens are taken away.

But might kids who never had access to screens react similarly if you took away their prized Legos, comic books, bike, art supplies, or other immersive toy? It doesn't seem like dramatic temper tantrums over losing a prized activity are new,and neither do obsessions over objects or activities.
Original article:

A lot of people seem to think so, consider how they will spend hours trying to avoid paying $30 a month or whatever to get rid of the ads and support the creators.

I find this entire discussion difficult, as with any other service not agreeing to the terms of sale just means you don't use it.

But online this seems to have become "Socially Acceptable Theft".

It's not like youtube access is a human right, there's a million other alternatives to entertainment online, if you can't agree to terms of one just use another?

Fwiw, FF7 Remake is something different, to both acclaim and great upset. It occurs after the original timeline but in the original timeline—Aeris and Sephiroth both know what happened in the OG timeline and S is trying to remake it better according to his aims. Also there’s a bit of a Kingdom Hearts-ification to some of the main story beats, which is my main complaint.

Many people are so upset because they didnt get what youre saying would be so bad, an actual remake or remaster.
Anthropic models have way inferior capabilities.
Agreed, but I do find gpt4 has been increasing the amount of pseudo code recently. I think they are a/b testing me. I find myself asking if how much energy it wasted giving me replies that I then have to tell it to fix.. Which is of course a silly thing to do, but maybe someone at oAI is listening?
Replace 'Security' with 'Safety' and your comment still rings eerily true! One exception (? probably not an exception) is that sometimes organizations will still hire safety/security specialists (because the externally viewed perception of not having them is damaging), but these specialists are then (perhaps unintentionally) knee-capped to various extents in order to prioritize promises to leadership or other org. goals that must be hit. The net result is that good and capable folks who care deeply about the company's mission may watch in consternation as the org. slowly train wrecks itself if the roll of the dice doesn't land right. See, for example, the story of several autonomous driving organizations.
I suspect this may have to do with who owns what: the trailer is not always owned by the same entity as the truck which means that some sort of agreement needs to be made. This could be part of the transport fee, but would need to solve questions like what happens if the trailer battery is empty.
I disagree, but I guess time will tell.
I went through this when I quit caffeine. I had been exercising nearly daily for two decades, loved almost every second of it, literally always caffeinated. Then I quit caffeine for digestive reasons and my god it's like any form of exercise is pure torture. Finally starting to come through the other side, had to drastically simplify what I was doing to make it palatable (basically just running + yoga at this point.)
The advances of renewables are definitely dependent on strong compute and widespread global (or at least widespread local) networking. Smart grids need all of the different tools from different manufacturers to talk to each other, which an agreed-upon networking protocol like IP on top of an existing internet backbone makes very easy to ipmlement. On-demand energy storage and providing from battery banks - or even hydroelectric storage or (as mentioned in the article) gas-powered backup turbines need the analytics power to study and predict load variations on all of the collected data, which existing data centers for search or even apps makes trivial to acquire.

Now, there could have been technical solutions for these issues found in the 80s or 90s, but more probably than not the engineers back then would not have thought about this beyond the obvious corporate aspects - after all, it's much more "practical" to focus on connecting the big power plants together and just vaguely estimate the required consumption.

It's probable that, if you sat at a design meeting in the 80s and proposed, as "an energy-efficient solution", to have a small computer in every consumer's breaker box that monitors the incoming electricity, sends the info through a combination of radio and country-spanning wires to a central server, and then do analytics on it to predict when the power is needed, you'd have been laughed out of the room. And yet, that's how smart grids work nowadays and it is the correct solution to this problem.

The improvements in energy storage and solar/wind renewables would have started decades earlier, sure, and that would have mattered. But I don't think anybody would have been able to use them the way we can use them today if it was done twenty or thirty years ago, and the technology might have died down instead. It's hard to know for sure, but it's a very plausible outcome.

In my experience, 90% of everything is crap. There are plenty of dysfunctional hacker spaces. Most of them either die quickly or become self-sufficient; they're a way for hustlers to hustle each other.

There seems to be some cores. There's usually someone out there who's actually good at selling, even if they don't have a plan nor a product. You end up with legit YC alumni actually leading the pre-pre-YC prep programs. These are more dangerous and can sustain for years, especially with that whole cockroach surviving on ramen thing.

Smaller ponds have smaller fish. What a friend does (who I met on HN!) is to bring in an existing online community offline. That seems to work quite well, and it sustains until one of the dysfunctional communities collapses and swarms the popular communities.

I also find that being relentlessly helpful drives off some of the bullying types. HN-style guidelines seem to help. Assume goodwill. Don't talk down, educate. Don't assume someone hasn't read the article (or isn't educated enough), quote a part of the article or link to a tutorial. Time out the people who start a lot of fights; some are just passionate. But the unapologetic bad apples should be handled quickly.

Microsoft Contributes Azure RTOS to Open Source
Azure RTOS Is Now Eclipse ThreadX
> MS hacked in backwards compatibility with old apps and hardware, whereas Apple transitioned hardware from Motorola to PPC to Intel to Apple Silicon with incredible, seamless emulation layers as bridges.

Microsoft also has incredible seamless emulation layers, not for CPU differences, but for older technologies. I expect that Windows can still render bitmap fonts at least in some old applications, for example, while MacOS won’t.

The difference is that Apple tears down the bridges they build after a few years, hugely decreasing their maintenance burden. They don’t have to test compatibility of any 68k or PowerPC applications, for example, or apps using Carbon, try to have only one font layout engine on the system (I think they currently have that, but am not 100% sure), one html engine (again, I do not track things, but Microsoft likely has at least 2, one for the browser and one the ancient help system used in ancient applications) etc.
> They're entrenched monopolies. Google, Apple, Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon products are all shit, but users don't really have any other choice.

If their products are all shit, how are they able to maintain their monopolies? Why hasn't a competitor started up that offered a better product?
TikTok is based on a US company - musical.ly - which was not bought by any US social media giant, maybe due to anti-trust concerns.
Exactly. It's the frameworks driving the abuse.

I actually think CSS is the wrong tool for modern webdev. Or rather, it should be the output of a compile process instead of something that designers and developers wrestle with.

In general, we're building these complex SPAs, and still working directly in standards that were intended for a static document model. Part of the reason is we somehow believe we need infinite customizability, so for that we're writing in Assembly.

But, the truth is that user interfaces are largely consistent and should be. Still, even if we did want maximal customizability, we should use tooling that generates the CSS, etc.

And that tooling should be visual. I mean think about the fact that we're trying to hand code visual designs with text. Or that it was so accepted that we're only recently trying to generate the code from design tools like Figma, which is still imperfect.

So many thousands of developer hours lost to this effort. Bass-ackwards to be sure.
This may be a luddite-esque take, but personally, I'm very hesitant to use Bun on any meaningful project at the moment. It screams too-good-to-be-true right now. I also believe that I may have heard of some people running across issues with it recently, although I maybe conflating my memory of it with something else. That, and, while I understand the namespace pollution with JS packages, saying that I use "Bun" for my projects is a bit of a turn-off, to be quite honest. I may try it for some pet project in the near-term future but if I was to make a choice for anything else I see operating long term I'd be much more inclined to use Deno, although I still think even that is probably a bit less established then I'd prefer, so I'd probably still use Node until Deno matures a bit more.

Oh yeah I distinctly remember playing Deftones over and over and over from local files on the PC version, to the point that all I can think about when I see GTA or hear Minerva is the other one.

Copilot in everything.

Incidentally, think it should be renamed to Clippy Copilot for nostalgia and harmonization with other product lines.
The problem most people (in my experience) have is that they don't actually start training with any intention of becoming half decent, which both psychologically and physiologically limits their potential outcomes.
What's "the Microsoft chat"? I've got multiple GPT4 models deployed in Azure and I can't see a difference to vanilla OpenAI's responses.
I would watch ads if the friction they caused were lower than the friction of maintaining an ad blocker and random sites that break every so often.

I suspect that is the same for the vast majority of people. Just like with music back in the day: people accept a minor nuisance (either ads or a small monetary cost) if they feel they get a good deal (a smooth experience and reliable content).
Not sure. But it does make sense like you say. The output must somehow correspond to the input, in a meaningful way, that is the purpose of LLMs. If you gave the LLM just one words as input who knows what the output would be. But if you give it more meaningful information it has more to work with, to give you an answer that more precisely matches your question.

A major problem here is that intermittency isn't consistent.

Okay, solar doesn't generate at night, so you would need to charge some batteries during the day and discharge them at night. Maybe that's fine.

But solar also generates less in winter. If we want to transition heating from oil and gas to electric, we need a lot of generation in the winter. If we build some more solar to do that, now there's way more than enough in the summer, so anything that can make up the shortfall in winter is only going to be used in winter. Duty cycle for whatever that is just got cut in half or worse.

Then sometimes it's cloudy for a week. Having enough battery capacity to make it through the night is very different than having enough to make it a whole week, or two. By the second or third day you need enough traditional generating capacity to run the whole grid at night -- but that capacity only gets used one week out of the year.

Now you want to say that gas is too expensive if it can only amortize its costs in those limited circumstances. But what do you want to do instead? You need something that can run the whole grid the week that it's cloudy, none of the options for that are cheap, but the alternative is everybody loses power that week.
Prior to the advent of Uber and its clones, there were and still are radio taxis. You call a number and a cab turns up and you pay by the meter or an agreed upon price. How did it work then? Ride hailing apps need to go back to same business model. Act as a marketplace, connect two parties let the figure our a fair price and just charge the service provider for providing them a platform. But then it won't be a sexy business for the VCs and it won't make anyone billionaire.
I don't say this to sound dismissive, which I think is all too common in discussions like this.

If we're talking about aerobic exercise, you don't need to "form" anything. It's a monostructural movement. Buy a treadmill and jog on it for 20 minutes when you wake up. Buy a rower and do 5k every morning, or evening, or over lunch. Get a stationary bike and do 10 minutes on that whenever you remember to do it.

This isn't strength training which benefits from having an actual program to follow put together by someone who knows what they're doing. Just pick a thing that you can do for 20 minutes without wanting to kill yourself, and do that thing for 20 minutes a few times a week. The most important part (in what the kids today would call "my lived experience") is to push yourself hard, sweat a lot, and do it at least 3 or 4 times a week. More is going to be better, especially at the beginning to build a habit, but twice a week is just sporadic enough where it's too easy to miss one and 2 becomes 1 becomes "once every 4 weeks."

"Stable" also doesn't need to be the same amount of time at the same time of day on the same days every week.
It does use incremental builds so long as you don't reset everything.

I'm not sure that a lot of people who don't work with make realize that it's smart enough to only rebuild what has changed, and that it's not just a command runner!
