If we're competing to be pedantic here, the problem is that Windows encodes paths as UTF-16 and Linux can support just about any random jumble of bytes in a path regardless of if those bytes are valid UTF-8 or not. Neither of these play nicely with Rust's "if it can be represented, it's valid" approach to code safety, so OsStr(ing) exists as a more permissive but less powerful analogue for such cases.
Ah, I didn't catch that this blog post was outdated! Thanks for that.
“Make your own game” games will never replace regular games. They target totally different interests. People who play games (vast majority) just want to play an experience created by someone else. People who like “make your own game” games are creative types who just use that as a jumping off point to becoming a game designer.

It’s no different than saying “these home kitchen appliances are really gonna kill off the restaurant industry.”
My EM experience is decades old and not cryo, so I have a question.

In the old days we had to vapor deposit gold onto the sample because EM didn't work unless the sample was conductive. Is this still a thing?
The Maverick is a great product but if I were a shareholder I’d want to be selling the $50k profit machines instead.

The margins on the Maverick are tight. It’s really just the Toyota Corolla of utility vehicles. Completely different buyer, and that’s okay.

The original passive-agressive response sucks, because you can't just deal directly with the problem - you have to manage the emotions the other person projects on to the situation. You just have to know the person well enough to tell if those emotions are from, for e.g., job stress or a lack of sleep, or from some deep childhood trauma.

I think that the bigger problem is that passive-aggressive responses tend to bleed out into all sorts of other, unrelated situations. At least they do if they aren't talked about. It can be really difficult to discuss as a friend. It can be almost impossible in a work setting.

Right; but the computer is much better at fixed patterns than I am. This is the philosophy behind linters, automatic indenting tools in IDEs and gofmt and friends.

Given a choice, I’d rather that the compiler does the work to write “if err != nil …” thing, using any mechanism for it - exceptions, or whatever.

You’re right of course. I can deal with patterns. I do so every day. I can type that code over and over and visually learn to spot when I do it wrong. But I’ve got a computer right here in front of me. I’d rather get the computer to do that work and spend my attention focusing on the task in front of me.
I've been hunting for a solution for this for weeks. The Chrome team said they fixed it and locked their support thread frustratingly.

It seems to occur most often when I am switching from one app to Chrome with Chrome in full screen mode. I do not have the issue if I use Chrome in a window.

When the pinwheel does come up, it usually helps to navigate away and click on an empty desktop, then come back. Interestingly enough when I do that, I occasionally notice a "this program is recording your screen notification" in the status bar.

I actually gave up on Chrome because of this issue, but reinstalled it after noticing some of the other browsers lacking some of Chrome's unique features

I'd recommend buying a phone from Tracfone (or one of their sub-brands) with a bundled year of service, and then unlocking it after 60 days. They frequently have sales of those bundles for $100 or even less. You should be able to take it to T-Mobile if the model isn't proprietary to Tracfone/Verizon (though you will be stuck with the Tracfone customized firmware). According to this page which tracks prepaid phone deals, QVC and HSN both have Tracfone bundles on sale with lower-end Samsung phones for around that price, and even one with a Pixel 6a if you're willing to spend a little bit more: https://prepaidcompare.net/deals/
For good paper you need some wood with long fibers. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_(paper)#Wood_pulp

> While in theory any tree can be used for pulp-making, coniferous trees are preferred because the cellulose fibers in the pulp of these species are longer, and therefore make stronger paper.
This is very cool. You can start with an image, generate a mesh for it, render it, and then compare the render to the image. Fully automated training.
Ironically the breeding you are complaining about was done long ago as part of the formation of working breeds, and a non-drug intervention to increase life span might instead be breeding them to be smaller.
Really the hardest thing with art is details and usually seperates good from bad. So if you can sketch what you want roughly without skill and have the details generated, that's extremely useful. And image to image with the existing diffusion models is useful and popular.

We talk about the evil wages of hate but seldom about those of love. People love those flat little anthropomorphic faces, often very fiercely. That love creates demand for an unhealthy creature by the millions. This particular love has proven wide spread and enduring.

It was never about whether the motive is hate or love, both are correct in their place. It was always about the short- or farsightedness of their pursuit. We're probably just not farsighted enough to freely make those cute dogs rare.
I will soon prepare some scripts to do that, but I first want to confirm the core ideas and design something that I will only have to do once, and the discussion on https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/15526#issuecomment-182... is still ongoing.

If you want more detail about my proposed approach, please check the discussion on https://old.reddit.com/r/zfs/comments/182x5wy/with_old_backu...

I have 18 months of backups, and could go back earlier if needed but accessing and processing each backup will take time. I don't want to do that multiple times.

Anything you can mount, using any filesystem keeping this metadata, should be usable as in input: this means from NTFS to zfs snapshots. It may even be possible to use ZIP files (which keep date and time) to feed a medata sqlite database.

Comparing the metadata DB to the actual ZFS filesystem would give you a list of suspicious files, and the most recent backup you could use to restore them

Alternatively, it could be possible to deduplicate all the backups when measuring the metadata, then to keep local copies of all the files, but it may add complexity and storage requirements.

If you are in a rush, write a script like that, but given how the null-bytes detection approach now seems flawed, you may have to rewrite that as we learn more details.

Also, there's no real fix for this bug yet that isn't introducing other problems. While we're still learning the ins and out of this >18 years old bug, I recommend to keep using a 2.1 version of zfs with zfs_dmu_offset_next_sync=0, and to bet on the low probability of corruption that allowed this bug to persist for such a long time.

Of course, keep your cold backups (don't delete!) but they can't accumulate corruption if you don't access them.

As others have mentioned PostNord is owned jointly with the Danish government so it's not quite a government services, well the postal delivery is, but the mechanism that achieves it, PostNord, is not.

I think you are also missing something else here. The government could break contracts with PostNord and have some other company take on the responsibility for the service, but in the Swedish political climate this would be a terrible idea and the government would haemorrhage voters if it did this. Not to mention the fact that whatever company it got to take over the services would have unionised workers, who would, undoubtedly, continue the action against Tesla.
I'm not defending fraud: if fraud is made, then you pay for it (either economically or via prison). On the other hand, having thousands of people on the internet call you everything because of a mistake. I don't know, I definitely wouldn't like to be judged by Twitter users if I make a mistake in my life (that's why I don't have Twitter/IG/etc. It's so scary to be judged in 0.5 seconds by thousands all over the world).

The best he could have done is to apologize, though, and handle it legally.
> On your common desktop Linux distro, I think C and C++ toolchains are the least difficult to setup and use without a container though

In my experience, the hard part is rigorously controlling the libraries a build uses. Using CMake, it's easy enough to add libraries to a build, but harder to stop the thing going off and looking round /usr/lib64 and so on. On my physical workstation, there is all sorts of stuff in there, because i have a desktop environment and a cornucopia of tools installed. I don't want a build using any of it! If a build needs a library which i have not explicitly added, i want it to fail, not use something from the system. But between default paths and rpaths in libraries and so on, that seems hard to do in a watertight way. I've done endless fiddling with sysroot flags, but i'm not sure it's not leaking. A container takes care of all that in a very definite way.
If Postnord is unable or unwilling to fulfill its obligations, then their contract should be dropped, and another company should be used instead. Right?

Or is there only one mail delivery service? Or is something else the problem?

What am I missing?
This is next-level cynicism. Zuckerberg has 3 kids, most of their execs and a lot of their employees are parents. They've also employed a team to try and keep that stuff off their platform for a long time. The idea that they don't really care about this kind of stuff is asinine.
I ran LineageOS on my Nintendo Switch for a few months, and it was uncannily stable. I had accelerated video playback, ran Obsidian and got all my other apps working mostly fine. A good LineageOS build can really change an older device for the better (but my Switch runs OEM firmware today because I despise fun).
I love this field. Paper include a nice website, examples, and videos.

I lived in SF proper for about 5 years, in the Sunset district, from '92 to '96.

My car was broken into 9 times during that period. It was also stolen once.

I have also lived in other cities and towns in the Bay Area totaling about 35 years.

I have never once had my car broken into in any of the other Bay Area cities.

I am not claiming that these things happen only in SF but rather that your risk profile goes up significantly when in San Francisco.

Nobody needs to make up stories, there are too many real stories to remember them all.

Wolves and wild dogs are large, by modern dog standards, and don't live very long. Selective breeding created the smaller breeds, which live longer. So maybe you want to ban wild animals instead.

> He’s part of a union and they provide for his benefits

Yeah, what we're talking about is not that. Union work is an entirely different beast. I'm talking about people not knowing from one day to the next what their schedule is going to be, informing their supervisor well in advance when they're available to work and still having work scheduled when they're not able to work and then being threatened to be fired if they don't show up. Complete shit show.
Stupid fight indeed, as it might inspire workers in other european countries (Norway, Germany) to do the same.
I just noticed Q in the AWS docs and tried a few test questions, and was not impressed. It refused to answer or misunderstood some basic questions. Eventually I got it to answer how a few short SKs would be ordered in dynamo and the answer it gave was incorrect.

Technical documentation is probably one of the worst usecases for GenAI, I'm not sure why so many companies are rushing to add it.
Imagine all the kinds of documentation that could be automated with this
TLDs can be thought of as namespaces, and they have good reason to exist.

For one thing, changing how domains work like this would massively drive up the cost of any one domain to the point where hobbyists and open-source projects would be priced out. I have a few domains, none of which are duplicated across different TLDs, and each of which serves a different purpose. It would have been pretty much impossible for me to do this if everything was under one namespace.

In addition to the price aspect, it would pretty much force the system into being a much more restrictive version of the already-existing trademark system - except that there wouldn't even be any exceptions for different fields, as there is in the current trademark system. For example, one of my domains coincidentally (and unknowingly at the time I registered it over 20 years ago) collides with the name of a movie. It's in a completely different field (actually, it's a personal, non-commercial site for me and not much is public on it) but I almost certainly wouldn't have been able to get it if TLDs didn't exist.

I would like a convenient word for articles like this that maybe cite a survey or two and interview random individuals. They are somewhat useless and could be written to make any argument. You can find one or two people who hold any opinion.

The article also seems like it’s partially anti-remote work propaganda as well.

Personally, work was never where I found joy anyway. Keep my paychecks coming in.
Less so than many other forms of steel previously used in automotive, no? If you want to compare to other materials like composites and plastics then sure, but those will have their own drawbacks as well. No material is perfect but for some cases where you do want an alloy body, stainless is going to have benefits over non-stainless steel.
Normies would believe the opposite positions - it's fine to think of the children. Age verification does protect children. Legislation protects children. So you've restated the disagreement. When you describe opposing positions as manipulative, tired, red herrings, and then you downvote and move on, does this seem more like engagement or disengagement with normie politics? I say again - is it not concerning that this board is unable to engage with people once they step outside?

I don't think the moderators have any trust in hacker news' ability to engage with this topic either, since this post has been nuked from hacker news.

The sharp angles should make the Cybertruck significantly more safe to pedestrians than an F-150.

When a pedestrian gets hit by a car, it takes out their legs and they bounce on the hood. When a pedestrian gets hit by a large truck, they take the full impact instantaneously due to the large blunt front, and then fall on the ground and get run over. The car collision has much higher survival rates.

The Cybertruck with it's lack of broad flat front, should behave more like a car in a pedestrian collision.
What do you ascertain the use case of this in your field? Does it seem high quality? (I have no context)
they're talking about safety for people outside the vehicle

> The "regulation that comes from the EU" was redacted and implemented by the Dutch government

This is partially true. The directive of the regulation came from the EU, the concrete implementation from NL. And at that point it was not clear to anybody that nitrogen deposit restriction would be such an important part of it. But, in that way, the Dutch are responsible for the problems that this regulation currently causes. However, if it would have been purely a Dutch regulation, the Dutch could simply amend it or drop it altogether. Since the regulation comes from the EU, this is not an option.

> ... the nitrogen limitation was introduced in the Dutch implementation of the directive and it's not present in the regulation of most of the other countries.

The nitrogen limitation was not specifically mentioned in the initial Dutch implementation, nor was it in the EU directive. It followed from the principle in the EU directive; that nature in the Natura 2000 area's is not allowed to deteriorate. The reason it is on the Dutch agenda at all, is that Dutch environmental organisations realized that nitrogen was a threat and even took the Dutch government to court to act on it.

> How the housing crisis relates (in a tiny part), with this specific environmental regulation ...

When the Dutch government lost the case about handling nitrogen in 2019, 18000 building projects had to be halted. That's no tiny part.

I recommend it because it gives an excellent overview of the fundamentals of the field. Well, honestly, because the series of books were formative for me so I'm a bit biased. I can't overstate the value I got from them. I still use them as reference works to this day. However, I can't say whether or not anyone else would get the same value.

I didn't think of studying them as "effort", though, because they were (and are) extremely interesting to me.

Chilling to say the least.
I am very skeptical.

Amazon's AI team seems to be the B-players who couldn't find a job at Google, Apple, OpenAI, Facebook, and friends, and things they've delivered were always less than impressive. Toxic work environment doesn't draw the best people.

I use a lot of Amazon services, but their code completion was abysmal compared to co-pilot. Whisper wipes the floor with Amazon Transcribe. Etc.

The pricing is also questionable, at $20-$25/user/month. I use generative AI a lot, and my OpenAI API bill is a fraction of that.

It's also not well-integrated with the rest of AWS, where I want APIs rather than per-user services.

The upside is less than clear.
It's not common sense. Virtually all car and truck frames are made of steel. But honestly, the metal doesn't matter. Whether a pedestrian is hit by 3000 pounds of aluminum at 45 miles per hour or 3000 pounds of steel at 45 miles per hour, there is going to be a high chance of fatality.

"An IIHS study found that vehicles equipped with automatic braking that detects pedestrians had a 27 percent lower rate of pedestrian crashes than vehicles without such technology."

Leaving one’s nest is difficult, particularly when it provides for all the needs. Perhaps one can leave just for the peak heat season, opposite of people leaving cold areas in winters. You go somewhere nice and cold for the summer. Or perhaps in the spirit of HN one can explore unconventional ways to cool down.

Surgery is tricky. I had one recently and asked the nurses to drug the shit out of me. When i saw pipes one with blood coming out of my belly and one stuck in my willy i felt i was going to pass out. I even considered asking to be put down humanely. When they pulled it out i asked for permission to curse and boy i did. A person in a bed next to mine said they had a boner when they removed theirs. To each his own i suppose.

But i did have my surgery, it’s all sorted and a thing of the past, i am recovering, all is good. It’s a thing that a decade or two form now will be just another “ah yeah i did that”. Water under the bridge. My mind is somehow erasing the memory because it now feels as if it happened in another life. Of course each experience is unique but overall i’m laughing at myself at how scared i was, and i am a full grown adult. I say that now but i’d terrified of doing it again. There were bits that did hurt but 90% was all in my head - mostly what ifs, and they suck more than pain. As everyone else i too have fears but some things just need to be done - assuming the risks are low, and other t&cs. Just like data, you “click” your head, switch in low power mode, and walk through hell. There’s light at the end.
