M7 is a mixed ice and rock grade and AI5+ is an alpine (permanent) ice grade. A0 is easy aid climbing, most likely hanging on hammered pitons or nuts.

The mixed and ice grade implies the rock climbing is around 5.11 (harder than most recreational climbers will climb in traditional style), likely with ice tools, and the ice climbing is technical yet with decent protection.

"The first two days involved about 6,000 vertical feet of climbing, 60 meters of rope at a time."

Can someone explain to me, who is nytimes writing this article for, exactly? Only Brits mix units like this, but this is an American publication - so what gives? Why not just stick to meters or feet throughout and be consistent?
Yes, or on Twitter, LinkedIn…

Sort of beating a dead horse at this point, the other comments have brought it up, but—they want you buy a card, and use it for at least long enough that you can’t return it anymore.

Driver support will be an afterthought, performed at their whim, and the only harm they suffer from not doing it will be offending the small community Linux users.

Supposing it works sufficiently, it's a great example of innovative urban systems that many cities who could desperately benefit from them don't try and pursue.

I visited my hometown in Central Canada after winter this year, hoping that it would be the right time, but nope, I forgot about sand and car debris. Even walking one block in that damned city is like being whipped in the face with a fistful of gravel. Everyone drives, and so the roads need to be cleared, and sanded, and nobody in the cars experiences what it's like to be walking next to the road and have all that shit flying through the air.

Tangentially, it's just one of those things that gets me down about stagnant cities. There's no money because it all goes to roads and maintaining other expensive infrastructure, and if there was money, it'd go to some asinine ribbon-cutting one-off that falls apart shortly after. There's no incremental improvement of full systems that help make life more compelling; the people seem to get used to it, while the ones who can afford it isolate themselves as much as possible and vote to keep it that way.

Read your own article. The byline reads:

> Google is taking the unprecedented step of paying back users for all the games they bought on its cloud gaming platform.

Google _voluntarily_ refunded their customers. It's unheard of and was, frankly, extremely unexpected. Good for Google and good for Stadia customers.
I say this very sparingly: this may be one of the worst "numbers-based" comments I've ever read on Hacker News. Typically, such comments don't leave out the critical fact: _you can't reuse gasoline like a battery_.

It's disappointing to see this. Is this kind of comment the result of activism? We typically do much better on HN.
so for a typical spa, you can:

1. always refetch data. always in sync, but needs a server request, so it's slow.

2. cache some data on the client. faster, but you're "building your own database". can get out of sync (redux)

3. NEW: use SQLSync. fast, client & server stay in sync, don't have to "build your own database"

what you're describing just seems like number 1, right?

This doesn’t negate your point, but I know someone who’s an "insider" in this particular scandal and sees it as a systemic problem. This researcher/scientist was very disturbed by this scandal after learning about it, and some of their colleagues feel similarly sickened. If you're a good person, it's pretty disturbing to learn that some of your peers would be willing to risk lives by running a trial based on intentionally faked data.

It does seem sad that men resort to these services in a way that likely harms them. Does anyone have any statistics that breaks down content-creator income by user spendage? A priori my assumption is that (as I understand it) similarly to the liquor and gambling industry most of the income probably comes from "whale"-like users who spend unhealthy amounts of time and money on the service in a deeply unhealthy way.

A common spin is that the consumers are just having fun, but I imagine the stats tell a rather more depressing story.

I won't argue that the bigger traditional companies are the highest-paying targets. But, again, top 500 is a big target and I'm skeptical your average small startup is a lot better. But maybe it's just that you probably won't have a job in a year.

I have personally the opposite experience, I used to not have driving license, bike 30-40 minutes or 5 minutes walk + 25 minutes bus every half hour to catch the subway.

Public transport is very slow and exhausting when you don't live in the center near a subway station or very frequent bus.
Once I got a car, it felt like so much more peaceful to travel. I could carry my guitar and amp with no problem.

Overall car is way less stressful and exhausting to me, even when traffic is slow I can just listen to music with better confort than a bus.
References please. From what I remember about all the recent problems in the automotive industry, Ford did not need a bailout because they were fully capitalized with cash on hand to ride out the periods that drove GM and whoever controlled Dodge/Jeep to beg for a bailout. I may be wrong but I don't remember Ford needing to be propped up any time in the last 25 years or more.
Well, that’s overkill for Hyundais, 20-50kW max is all you need per wheel. You can produce >100kW with some high end racing hub motors [1]. You can also scale it up to generate more torque. Gear it down, etc.

It's the wrong abstraction for the use case. In the case of QML, Qt has its own memory management paradigm and you can play along or fight it. If you fight it, you need to know what your code and its code is doing.

I mean, why do people consider C++ to be an advanced-level language? Because it's full of these foot guns. Yet the author is a consultant who seems to work mostly with C++, so presumably they're familiar with the cargo-cult programming style of many entry-level C++ devs and the impedance mismatch between various frameworks.

It's just weird to single out smart pointers as the cause of the problem. In this case, someone made a use-after-free. Maybe it would be a memory leak done another way.

I think the Boehm GC would actually be handling this case pretty well, but C++ people are often allergic to GC, even when it would serve well.
Well, I look forward to benefiting from this nice work when the next Debian Stable release comes around.

To be fair the the 911 can do 9.9 Seconds. Tesla just chose a slower model/config due to obvious reasons (of course 911 Turbo S is more than 2x as expensive as the top-end Cybertruck).
Even if you made a bog standard HVDC cable and wrapped it all the way around the planet[0], the transmission losses are only 60% or so, which is smaller than the price difference between PV (or wind) and nuclear.

[0] don't do that, the current cables are optimised for the current transmission distances, so it's simultaneously easy (wider cables have less resistance) and harder (you need to care about earthquakes) to make a different design better suited for global scale

They do work fine, but let's be real, they work with reduced range and increased charge times. I have an "older" Tesla with nearly 100k mi and operate in the north quite a bit. There is a tradeoff, which I personally think is worth it, but many do not or cannot make it.

It's fine to acknowledge the reality of current technology while also being optimistic about the future. Operating EVs in cold remote areas requires diligence and preparation. It's a fact.
> What is great about remote is that it kind of forces you to write down your ideas in some format

It really doesn't for some people. I have coworkers who will never communicate through text; after the first 1-2 messages they always say "let's just have a quick conference call", and then it ends up endless as they talk. I personally mostly avoid them as much as I can.
Then they should let you download it

This is common in the American climbing community, rope lengths are always in meters but people often use feet for wall/mountain heights.

60m is a standard category of rope, so it would be confusing (for climbers at least) to call it 196ft or 200ft rope.

It's also common to talk about 4000-footers in New Hampshire and 13ers in Colorado, so I guess that's why (some) people stick to feet for mountain heights.

I agree it doesn't make sense because sometimes you have to convert in your head to see if your rope is long enough, but it's just the custom here for whatever reason.
Y tu!
The stage, the mirror/aberration control, and metrology (overlay/,reg and height/focus) are massive projects

A fair case can be made that the twinscan concept is the key.
Email me and we will get you taken care of.
Probably referring to pitch lengths. Climbing ropes are generally ~60 meters (200 feet), or one pitch.

Seems like they asked this Paraguay official to support their UN application to be recognized as a sovereign nation. So how is it that he didn’t know it was a fictional country? That’s kind of the point that if a country seeks sovereignty, it isn’t yet recognized as one.

Why are the families starving? Is the only option in that area growing cocoa for export to the West? Why can't those people work for themselves, to grow their own food, to feed themselves?

Is it because some wealthy landlord owns all the land? Is it because we dump subsidized food on the global markets, making local agriculture non-competitive? Could either of those have anything to do with it?

There seems to be a very obvious economic solution somewhere between 'grow cocoa for other people for a pittance' and 'starve'. These people are poor, not helpless.

Is Altman using OpenAI to guide his decisions? Does he ask his "oracle" how to handle these individuals on the board based on what it knows about them and how they have reacted in the past? From many posts on here he sounds like a master manipulator and therefore he should not be allowed control of anything that affected anyone else's life, property, health, etc since he is obviously only in it for himself.

I don't know the guy but frankly from reading a lot of stuff on here posted by people that have experience with him I am not inclined to trust him at all with anything and would watch him like a hawk. Trust is critical and he does not inspire trust.
I like the analogy to a router and local Mixture of Experts; that's basically how I see things going, as well. (Also, agreed that Huggingface has really gone far in making it possible to build such systems across many models.)

There's also another related sense for which we want routing across models for efficiency reasons in the local setting, even for tasks for the same input modalities:

First, attempt prediction on small(er) models, and if the constrained output is not sufficiently high probability (with highest calibration reliability), route to progressively larger models. If the process is exhausted, kick it to a human for further adjudication/checking.

Both are just as real interpretations. If a gang were to run a city it doesn't mean they start issuing passports that do anything or get to apply to vote on things in the UN. Just because you don't recognize the neighboring group doesn't mean they can't wage war against you or take control of what happens in the region.

For most contexts I'd agree being recognized by other countries is the most common interpretation between the two angles. That doesn't mean it's the only valid interpretation.
Every time I go to the bank to take out cash they ask me who the money is for and if I know them.
Antiunion aggression must be ruthless in these places. You can only grow some of these crops in certain regions of the world, yet despite this rare geographically granted monopoly, labor is paid perhaps the worst in these places, certainly much worse than in the western world that does nothing particularly unique in any one place. Nothing quite like coffee or chocolate or even the opium poppy. Unfortunately often when labor organizes, these movements are liable to be taken over by authoritarians who have no one’s collective interest in mind, because the power of being able to command a centrally planned economic force is just too great to not make such an attempt for the morally bankrupt charlatans among us.

> What was in it for Sun to invest in GNUStep?

I'm saying that Sun needed an update to the old CDE and invested quite heavily in the development of Gnome to create their Java Desktop System [1]
I believe it was a mistake for many reasons, nobody like JDS, the name itself was a lie and ultimately they just helped their competitor RedHat by turning GNOME into a serious project.

I believe Sun still had all the Lighthouse Design softwares that were made for NeXTSTEP [2]
Jonathan Schwartz founded Lighthouse and actually joined Sun through the acquisition (!)

Anyway at that time the relationship between Sun & Apple had turned very bad & Steve Jobs threatened them when he saw the Looking Glass demo [2]

Thanks for the brief history of Plan9.
However, your agrument for their propoganda is "they have been spurned so they use abstract shit".
This really misses the point that Plan9 is actual real art. It is beyond most peoples comprehension. What the art is doing is the same as what the OS is doing. Is is reflecting itself across multiple levels to self propogate and be unpacked by the unconscious. It is not "we have been spurned" it is "we spurn you as inferiour beings, unable to comprehend our multi-level, dangerous reality".
I had a laptop with an ATI card, 2006 to 2013. Then some 3.x kernel dropped the driver and I had to choose between buying a new laptop and stop upgrading the kernel. I stopped the upgrade but no more ATI cards for me after that experience.
That sentiment is strongly waning, imo. Chess was similarly dismissed at one point when it became a fad. Gaming is fairly mainstream nowadays. But probably depends who you ask.
If you define the threshold for "wantonly and aggressively inaccurate" so low that nobody has ever been confused, you are in for a lot of frustration and grievances.
Coming from the backend world, I've only done small frontends that don't get this complicated. Assuming there are legit reasons for a FE to have complex state, a relational database is probably one of the first things you need. It's almost an automatic decision on a backend to have one, same should apply here. Using SQLite instead of Redux sounds reasonable.
Things like "6,000 vertical feet of climbing, 60 meters of rope at a time" do stand out.

All iTunes movies have DRM. Read their agreement carefully and you'll see the same thing as Sony and everyone else – they are selling you a license to the media which they can revoke at any time. And Apple has done this plenty of times in the past with movies, books, apps, music.
