you've misunderstood my point -- I'm saying manufacturer claims need to be verified. 10x doesn't mean all that much to begin with and, moreover, fan static pressure claims from manufacturers get verified by virtually no one. a shady manufacturer could straight up make up these numbers and no one would be the wiser because of that lack of independent verification. it's like if a CPU GHz figure was taken at face value, without testing.
I’m perennially baffled by CR’s ratings. They are a lagging indicator at best, and skewed/biased at worst. Does anyone actually use this information any more?
I dub this the Manchurian attack!
The entity training the data and the users of the model are not necessarily the same entity. Asking the model directly will not (or: shouldn't) work if there are guardrails in place not to give specific information. As for the reason, there are many, one of them being the fact that you train your model on such a huge number of items you can't guarantee there is nothing that shouldn't be there.
It's not that there's not a demand for unleaded avgas, I'd say most GA pilots are ambivalent to leaded vs. unleaded fuel; they just want whatever makes the prop spin.

The issues with the unleaded avgas rollout are purely bureaucratic. The FAA has been dragging its feet for literally decades to get it done. Even when we have fuels like G100UL approved which is a drop-in replacement for ~80% of the GA fleet, it still takes forever to get across the finish line.
That does not follow at all. How would, for example, a college student with no assets be able to buy a house up front if landlording was illegal?
Rest in peace, mxtabs.

I guess the upside to UG is that it encouraged me to learn by ear.
Mini is hot garbage on wheels comparable to VW. I am really surprised to see this.
I have a feeling you’re misremembering the details. Toyota’s have a reputation for being some of the most reliable cars.
If you put your proprietary documents and knowledge to formulate your custom model then, well, you probably would not like these to leak ;)

A jet turbine is an internal combustion engine. It isn't a "reciprocating" engine, though.
Yes. But still, 4/5 of the most reliable brands (including their luxury division) are Japanese. BMW/Mini is up there, though!

Show HN: pgxman – npm for Postgres extensions
pgxman is npm for Postgres extensions, simplifying the discovery and use of extensions so you can easily enhance your applications.

Installing and updating Postgres extensions is an uphill battle. You're left searching for the right build tools and grappling with often unclear and incomplete compiling instructions to even try one out. But with pgxman, we've streamlined the process to one simple step: pgxman install [extension name].

For example, to build parquet_s3_fdw manually, you'd need to:

1. Download the parquet_s3_fdw source code;

2. Figure out how to build it by looking at README. When unclear, look at the source code how to build it. The README of parquet_s3_fdw says it needs libarrow, libparquet & aws_sdk. Readme doesn’t say where to get them.

3. Make sure all dependencies are available to build the project. Either install them from apt, if available, or build them manually if not. For parquet_s3_fdw aws_sdk has to be built manually — it’s not available in any apt repos

4. Build the extension targeting the correct OS, CPU architecture and Postgres version.

5. Determine and build to the right path /usr/lib/postgresql/15/lib - otherwise, Postgres wouldn’t be able to find them.

6. Repeat across all relevant Postgres instances. Hopefully, these Postgres versions are recent or else you’ll have to update postgres, set maintenance window, etc.

* Added friction: Since parquet_s3_fdw is not designed to use in a cloud environment, and we forked it to make changes to make it possible to use.

Using pgxman, you can just do:

pgxman install s3_parquet_fdw

pgxman integrates with your system package manager, ensuring the correct versions are installed without extra packages from any shared dependencies between extensions. pgxman’s automated build system creates [APT] packages for each Postgres version, platform, and OS supported by the extension. Extensions are built from a “buildkit” formula, written in YAML, and are contributed through GitHub.

To install pgxman, you can do

brew install pgxman/tap/pgxman

or, if you don't mind pipe-to-shell,

curl -sfl https://install.pgx.sh | sh -

Can AI push the boundaries of privacy and reach the subconscious mind?
Yes, we're anticipating more spiky workloads because of this. Deno Deploy is already designed to handle spikes, but we also have a few additional mitigations in place for Cron. For example, we will limit concurrent dispatches for the same project/user/organization, which may slightly delay the execution of specific cron tasks.
Ai writing detectors are not a useful tool. Might as well use a polygraph
I thought I was the only one that built demos on my own time from sheer desperation.
Having .ORG was the endowment. Selling off something they don't/shouldn't 'own' is bullshit. They were granted an endowment to manage .ORG to use the profits to support IETF.

They simply outsource the backend and collect a large profit. It's not a difficult business at all. The margins are insanely good in fact. They're doing at least 60% if not closer to 90% I suspect on the actual operations side if they competitively bid out their backend.

Registry contracts aren't bid out every few years for the most part, that's a giant problem. Why Verisign has a monopoly on com/net.
Some news isn't valuable anymore. In the world we're going towards, wouldn't it be fair to expect that reliable/verified news will increase in value? Similarly, what is the true value of local news that would otherwise go unreported?

It's important to consider what someone would pay for news directly alongside the value that a healthy media ecosystem plays in a healthy society. It's not called the fourth estate because someone thought it would be fun.
Some people do use KeePass exactly because of your saying. I have multiple devices and I like the easiness of use. I do not have to remmyto perform backups etc. it's all taken care of.

Yes they're slightly different in theory, but not in any way that would prohibit mutual understanding. Besides, if you're telling anyone about this library you're most certainly going to spell it out anyways.
What's the theoretical maximum resolution and how close does this get?
I find the glass cockpit airspeed/altitude tapes to be significantly worse overall than analog dials. Not only is it easier to see rate of descent, but it's very easy to see whether the absolute number is where you want it to be. Normally if you're cruising, you will be at an even thousand or 500 foot increment. The big hand should either be pointing straight up or straight down. You can even see out of the corner of your eye if you're a little too high or low. On the tape you have to read a 4-5 digit number. Similar thing with airspeed. Once you are familiar with a plane, you know what angle the airspeed needle should be pointing for a particular phase of flight. It's much quicker cognitively to see the angle of a pointer than reading a number.

I was thinking the same thing. Obviously this is not meant to be a polished product, but it lights a spark that will eventually grow into a fire. We’ve always wanted this capability, and this guy has shown us it practically possible now. Doubtless there will be others, but that’s the point.
I saw someone post on Twitter the other day a conversation where they asked ChatGPT for recipe ideas for turkey and stuffing with things he could buy at a Trader Joe's in New York.

To summarize the conversation, it basically came back with tacos with turkey and filling, quesadillas with turkey and filling, burritos with turkey and filling, etc.

The person concluded that it was "amazing" and he was headed out the door to Trader Joe's.

I find this kind of false enthusiasm strange and I struggle to understand the motivation to pretend something is useful other than to feel like you are on the same side as the next big thing.

I continue to believe that for a confluence of reasons we are in an era of extreme credulity and that people believe in every new idea with plenty of opportunists to capitalize on it. I think GPU's are at the center of it and every time they cross a performance threshold new use cases emerge very few of which seem to really find product market fit.

I do think when it's all said and done it's going to be great- there will be an enormous excess of powerful chips with nobody to use them and research costs will nosedive. Research should not be solely in the hands of people with the most wealthy backers.
I wonder if this issue is behind all the reports of people randomly crashing into weird obstacles. Often it's claimed that they are confusing the break and accelerator pedals and one pedal driving is cited. But there's a bunch of other EVs that also have one pedal driving and they seem fine.

Mind you, my (much cheaper) EV will beep at me if I try to engage a mode and it refuses. Be it forward, reverse or park. But in the 'ready to drive' state it has never refused reverse or drive; I don't know why it ever would.
This is awesome, thanks! Not OP, but this will help me to write specifications for modifying existing JSON structures immensely. It's kind of a pain parsing JSON by (old man) eye to figure out which properties are arrays, and follow property names down a chain. This will definitely help eliminate mistakes!
There are some manufacturers that have historically always had lousy electrical systems in their cars. Making an entire car out of electrical systems is inviting trouble. Looking specifically at you, VAG.
I've only been to Seattle a few times (though I did ride the bus downtown from the airport before the airport Link was built). My understanding is that Seattle has a robust suburban commuter bus and ferry network (though admittedly, a lacking commuter rail network...).

Here in Chicago, I believe Amazon has offices at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Center_(Chicago) which is a place where driving makes very little sense.
Barely. Not enough to be a hinderance to mutual understanding.
I tried the same in CodeLLAMA and it did not leak anything. Wondering what could trigger this
I agree with you in principle but I think if you're Consumer Reports and you know much of your audience is very nontechnical (ie, will only have a very surface-level understanding of electric vs hybrid vs ICE) it makes some sense to attempt to distill an entire brand down to a single datapoint.

Many readers aren't savvy and just want to know what dealership to show up at to start asking what they can afford. If brand XYZ has amazing ICE reliability but their EVs are trash, you suddenly need to be a more informed consumer when you get to that dealership. Easier to just rank the companies with a long history of reliability across multiple product segments higher.
From my years at a major car supplier I know that Toyota was never interested in our latest developments, even if we offered them at a cheaper prize. They only purchased components that had been in use for other cars.

I own a Toyota Avensis. It is the most boring car in the world, but I never ever had any issues with it. Mine is the second facelift, built in 2015, based on a chassis that had been in production since 2009. So any early problems have been resolved long time ago.

Maybe this explains a bit why Toyota is on top in the reliability ranking. They are very reasonable cars. Would I buy one if I had more money? Hell, no!
I support this style of usage. The impression given from this example is that the content itself, not the style, is low quality.
I don't think that matters. If I can't use a car for the 5 times I take 400+ mile road trips a year, why would I buy it?
My Tesla has been much less costly to own over the last three years than my Honda Odyssey: I have had several mobile repair visits for cosmetic issues and some OTA “recalls” but I find it hard to believe that any ICE car is more “reliable” than a Model 3 that didn’t gave obvious QC issues at delivery.
It isn't patched, it just is unlikely to work. I just got it to output a lot of stuff like ebay listings etc, every time you do it you get to see a new part of its inner self.

Ask HN: What do you dislike about code reviews?
No, I was missing the "per year" so I guess "rate of return" is better than ROI.
>> Looking at our two leading presidential candidates could that be an improvement?

I think it could be better until it won't. Like with dictators sometimes they "do good" but the issue is that at some point they will start doing more harm than good and they may not want to go away.

A succesful revolution against an AGI ruler may become impossible.
I never used it on the console side but we had few pitches for HPC offerings. Back then nobody cared about the GPU but the test runs basically doomed it: the peak performance would have been nice but it required pretty massive rework of each program before the results weren’t bad and we had some memory-latency sensitive workloads which would have suffered horribly. We spent less money on Opterons which were faster on every existing app and since multiple supercomputing systems mixed the two I suspect that was a common decision.
I'd love to know what happened there. They used to be on their unreliable list for years.
Worked with a guy called Ian Jones, and we all really wanted his middle name to be Diana.
Exactly. The naivete of people is astounding. We hear every day about people being deplatformed for no reason at all, and the price they pay for using said platforms.
It's incredible how the Japanese carmakers were able to perfect the auto manufacturing process and then proceed to hold that advantage for what, 30+ years now? It's not a secret how they did it, it's been studied to death, every manner of technology/expertise/management transfer has been tried, and still no one comes quite close enough to threaten their position.
> Obviously, this would be less convinient and wouldn't sync between devices. But would do the job.

Seems like you answered your own question. While it is less secure, my password safe is synced across all devices. I can also easily share passwords with my family members and I can assist them with lockout issues. I don't think there's a nice solution for this with Keepass.

Also, a typical implementation is that the decryption is performed on your device. I don't think you send your key material to the provider but I don't know about all of them.

It is certainly a "keys to the kingdom" issue as you noticed, and I don't put 2FA reset credentials in the same place for example.
On the contrary, I'm impressed by how much Tesla has improved. They used to be second last, and the effort they've put into improving quality - especially on the Model 3 - is clearly paying off.
Does this account for driving habits? I’ve just purchased a Subaru WRX, and I can’t fight the feeling that the reliability score is in some way influenced by the hoards of idiots that flock to this car for its tuning and hooning potential.
For me it's very easy to measure. When working remotely, I do all my tasks, and if I finish before the en of sprint, I sometimes add something from the backlog I planned to do anyway. When working from the office, I do zero tasks, because the moment someone mentions RTO I change jobs.
Known password managers such as Bitwarden don't simply communicate the master password from client to server in plain text: https://bitwarden.com/help/security-faqs/, the master password is salted and hashed client-side, then salted and hashed again when stored in Bitwarden servers. Even if you managed to perform a MITM attack, you'd only be able to download your encrypted vault data, which would then require your master password to decrypt (locally). I believe talking about security consideration requires specifying a threat model, but for the average user such a setup would definitely be considered secure enough. A local only setup would definitely be more secure, but then as you said you'd lose QoL feature such as ubiquitous access, or nice UI/UX, no setup hassle, easy usage of hardware tokens and so on.
If one were to attack Bitwarden, he would either have to crack the encryption scheme to attack a specific user/business or target it through other means. Ultimately I think it's a small compromise of a small security sacrifice versus a big gain in terms of usability and availability.
>>> The phrase "Disagree and commit" only makes sense when two peers (or groups thereof) agree in discussing a decision in equal terms, and committing to whatever the decision is.

Where does the "disagree" part come in to it then?
I would really like deeper information about where the reliability issues are.

Consumer reports did a report showing Tesla had so many more recalls, but most of the recalls were just software updates that fixed driving software.

I'm much more concerned with not having my car breakdown, than random issues like not getting the charging range I expected or needing a software update, etc.

I don't find the brand by brand reliability ranking very useful when comparing vehicles that have a very different profile from the other's. I need more meaningful data to make a judgment on buying vs not buying.

Oddly enough they don't state what the problems are. Meanwhile the ADAC (German car club) find that EVs have similar defect rates in components they share with ICE while having less engine issues. Overall, they conclude there is insufficient data for a meaningful statistic at this time:

https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrzeug/unfall-schaden-panne/a...
Would you expect them on higher or lower rank?
In the end, they're both a type of "car". And they're judged on how reliably they "car".

It's especially important to see how they compare given the zealous push for EVs to replace ICE completely.
Indeed. I'm so surprised that it's hard to believe.
Thank you for your contribution, which consisted of feces.
Did they tell them it was fully remote indefinitely? Sure, I guess if people believed that then that can be unfortunate for them, but if they lived out in the boonies,they most likely they have a huge CO2 footprint anyway unless they never leave their home, making the climate change argument seem slightly disingenuous to me...
My best guess is that De Niro is involving Apple in his blame because the movie (that he was receiving the awards for that night) was produced by Apple Studios and distributed by Apple Original Films. So he probably assumed that the decision to edit the speech “to be centered on the movie” came from above aka Apple.

Regardless, it is a conflict that is simply about whether the final edit of the speech was approved between De Niro and the producer of the movie, and it just so happens that the producer here was Apple Studios. None of this controversy is related to Apple as a tech company or their products.
The wording isn't really optimal. I think the intent is that you should show backbone and disagree with a plan if you don't agree with it but you should then commit if the decision ultimately goes against you.

The basic formulation originally comes from Intel. The idea is that if you don't get your way you shouldn't constantly try to force a re-examination of the decision as often happens.
Yeah I first looked that up and kept getting confused. Like why make BBC Micro? Other comments kinda helped but I am still confused lol.
Compromise is paramount. The alternative is what u are seeing in Gaza.
No idea on Mini but independent Volkswagen service centers are never short on work.
You can browse code on Github just fine (and search within a file!) - you just can't search through the tree, which is a function of whatever platform the code lives on, be it your box or Github or some other web UI.
Tesla's reliability scores have always been pure and utter trash. This is the best result they have ever had. While other companies have a higher failure rate of major drivetrain components, Tesla is stuck somewhere between reinventing everything (thus lacking legacy knowledge) and not fixing things because they don't have the time/manpower for it. A great example of this is Model 3 Suspension failures. The Model 3 upper control arms are known to fail prematurely and seemingly, there is no fix. By all means, this is an extremely dangerous failure that can cause loss of vehicle control.
Germany has a far more serious inspection process than the US and the result for Tesla is truly a disaster:

> it was a pretty unanimous "Toyota wins."

Part of the reason is that Toyota uses really conservative, classic engineering. They sell things that have worked well for decades, and they're hesitant to introduce new features.

That's also why their infotainment systems are notoriously terrible and they lagged years behind everyone else on selling electric cars. Gotta take the good with the bad.
Isn't Subaru also Toyota?
To me, the proper pronunciation of Jacques sounds more like "Jock", so it does seem to be more than barely significant.
