It will have expired by now, but ClearCase is exactly what I think of whenever I see these kinds of ideas come up. It's really a handy tool but too bad almost nobody uses it or has even heard of it in the open source world since it isn't free (in any sense of the word). They were still using it at the NRO's ground processing stations as recently as six years ago. Just rsync VOBs between dev, staging, and prod environments, and checkout a particular view to install upgrades and you're guaranteed to have a totally identical environment complete with all dependencies, no containers necessary. It's really better than Git for this, too, because it can work as a distributed filesystem across many hosts at once, handles binary files perfectly well without needing extensions, uses a real database. You can version control an entire cluster of servers the same way Git version controls a single software project.

But it's 90s IBM enterprise business model to the core and the rest of the Rational product suite sucks.
As well as the overwhelming majority-male workforce, which is mentioned right below this in the article.
fairly off-topic, sorry: Midjourney gets the cartoon donkey's snout wrong, so wrong. It looks more like a cartoon dog. For some reason I'm really bothered by it.
100% share the method. If you are patient, somewhat knowledgeable, and frankly lucky you can pick up some nice things for real cheap at that point. Sometimes they can turn into money puts, but oftentimes with some preventative maintenance, things just keep going smooth.
Yes, this really irritates me.

Though note, from the post, that there were some applications of stationary aeolipiles with their spouts directed at vanes to do some light mechanical work - things like turning roasting spits and grinding pigments. All known throughout the fourteenth through to the seventeenth centuries, if not earlier, though it's unclear how widely any of them were adopted.
MacOS, and various might argue Minix (prevalence via Intel Management Engine), or FreeBSD (still very important for a few big companies), etc.
Personally, I think it isn't really an improvement over Google Drive. Drive offers so many more features, an office suite, integration with many other Google services, etc.

That said, I don't think Paperless is supposed to fill all those gaps. For me, its sole job is to make scanned documents searchable (from anywhere with Tailscale) and durable (with encrypted off-site backups). Having this isolated from a Google account with already too-far-reaching access is a benefit in my opinion.

Edit: rereading the context, I think you were referring to how I used Google Drive before Paperless. In that case I just stored scans in Google Drive. I struggled to organize consistently and search was lackluster. Paperless improves on these, but also is much more hackable. It's easy to set up post ingestion scripts, backups, email ingestion, etc.
Though only tangentially relevant, I can recommend Valetudo as a way to take control of your vacuum's firmware.
Fantastic.

For those of who who swim in the Microsoft ecosystem, and do not compile Linux apps from code, what Linux dustro would run this without fixing a huge number of dependencies?

It seems like someone would have included Llama.cpp in their distro, ready-to-run.

Yes, I'm an idiot.

the main premise sure. the comment I'm responding to is "I don't like talking about non-work stuff at work period. The person was annoying because of that". And that just feels like a lonely way to treat work, in my eyes.

Weird HTML Hacks History
You should be asking "What do terrorists and militants use?". Seriously. Look anywhere at any established militant or terrorist group and you'll see common tools. Some examples spring to mind:

1. Toyota Hilux trucks. Interestingly, for a combination of legislative reasons, you can't buy these in the US; But they are incredibly reliable.

2. AK-47 rifles. These are perhaps one of the most influential weapon systems in history. Again, incredibly reliable.

3. Casio digital watches. These are used as timers for improvised explosives but again, they're incredibly reliable. And cheap.

Back to cars, reliability is an interesting metric for cars because the manufacturers have made it incredibly difficult to maintain such cars yourself. You need to go to an authorized reapir shop that'll have the equip to access the computer systems.

Is this more reliable? If you break down in the middle of nowhere, it can be less than ideal. A simpler vehicle can be easier to get going again.
There really is no mechanical connection. And the Airbus A320 (first airliner with no mechanical backup) has been flying this way since 1988, so it's not anywhere near as dangerous as you think.
Usually debatable accounting practices, shafting customers on a breath-taking scale (see Wells Fargo), but also pollution. Bribes were legalized by the CU ruling that literally legalized bribery of politicians, so no worries there.

No one wants the popo snooping, because if they try hard enough, they will find things.
The bigthink article took a joke out of context and called it a prediction. Here is the full NYT article text, the author is clearly making a joke about planes needing to evolve wings like birds did: http://www.bretswanson.com/index.php/2016/02/pessimistic-pre...

Whatever conclusion the big think article draws is on a misreading of the source NYT article.
OSX I guess qualifies
I am currently reading your article with great interest as I am about to embark on implementing time series anomaly detection algorithm(s) for predictive maintenance applications. I would like to avoid unnecessarily complex algorithms that are unlikely provide real, practical benefits.
This says that light trucks are 1.45 times likelier to kill a person per mile driven than cars.
The Cybertruck is actually rather low for a truck. The edge of the hood would hit a typical person in the gut, not the neck or face as with many other trucks (especially lifted trucks).

All else being equal, does the speed of jaq change with the size of the input.
That's correct assuming you have to choose between buying two equally priced cars, one electric and one combustion.

But the choice here may be between buying a new electric and a used combustion that costs 1/4 of the price.

Or between buying a new electric and keeping the existing car longer.

Pretty sure that over the next 10 years at least, the latter two are the cheaper options.
Very interesting, but I’m not very fond of the fact that providing an email is required.
America's First Pedestrian Fatality Was Hit by an Electric Taxi
This is brilliant, thank you for sharing!
Mazda engine R&D is seemingly quite impressive: the SkyActive X engine is an unusual ICE gasoline engine that takes ideas from diesel, with greater fuel efficiency and horsepower.
Props for the idea of giving it a BDSM contract, it's a great edgee, but from what you wrote, the tool answered exactly as advertised. It cut through the legal language and highlighted the unusually one-sided terms, as it says on the front page. The use-case I imagined from the marketing was finding sneaky terms that lawyers tried to hide in long and strangely-worded sentences or simply summarising the key points in an exhaustingly long contract that you just need tp quickly judge but don't really have negotiating power over (various EULAs and NDAs come to mind).

Analysing the enforcability or legality of the terms themselves is a task that needs to be fine-tuned to specific jurisdictions and circumstances. This would basically be an "AI lawyer", which is a completely different product and many people are already working on that.
It is annoying because I am a curious person, but I can't say that this silence is a mistake on the part of OpenAI. Perhaps one day all the facts will come out when someone writes a book about this saga. I would be interested to read a book like that! For now, we might just not get to learn the whole story.

Now that the immediate danger seems to be resolved, the board is free to do its job quietly and leave public messaging to the company itself, the way that most startups operate.

Love this. Finally all the time I spent on Sporcle country quizzes is paying off!
Llama.cpp allocates stuff to the GPU statically. It'd not really analogous to a game.

It should have a heuristic that looks at available VRAM by default, but it does not. Probably because this is vendor specific and harder than you would think, and they would rather not use external libraries.
Something that not a lot of people are mentioning is that north american made VAG (vw, audi, etc) cars are made in factories that have shown much less reliability. Everybody in Europe praises VW for how affordable and reliable they are (since they're made in-house in Germany for the most part) - excluding the 2009-2014 years since they had quite a bad Golf line in terms of reliability
parents are even more susceptible to doing that. They spent the first 20 years of your life doing that after all.

>Also, as someone who works in male dominated profession, men rant all the time, complain all the time and do not want to hear solutions when that goes on.

sure. Doesnt mean men who are listening don't try. Or interject with their own rant instead. Those tend to be the two most common responses.

>I tend to give advice too, but I try to hold up unless I am really sure, cause most of the time people just want to rant.

I'm more of the "dang, that sucks" kind of person personally. So I guess I'm the ideal subject for that. Not because I'm not listening, I just genuinely have nothing else to say in response. I don't like ranting much IRL period (work, family, friends).
So this is all some kind of thread of conspiracy?

If not, I have bad news. Entropy, negentropy.. arrow of time..

Things just keep happening. Many of these things don't align with individual preferences.
Yes it's nice to see bucking of the boring trend for efficiency and pedestrian safety
It is genetics, in my case.

Part of my healthcare IT journey was as the LIMS Admin for 2 Tox labs, over the course of about 5 years. One of them was working on genetic markers for drug use. For example, of the 7 classes of Proton Pump Inhibitors, at that time, only 1 works for me. The rest either don't work, or work, but with lower efficacy.

The doc, handing it to me said, and I quote, "man, you got some weird genes". lol
Yet, you didn't bat at eye at Mini... the wholly owned Bavarian budget brand.

That said, as an owner of all three German fancy-pants brands and a meh shade-tree mechanic, I'm also really surprised by how high the BMW family is.

To put it in perspective, the A380 max landing weight is 391 tonnes, versus the 7000 tonnes of lithium batteries required to power a long haul flight.
Spinoffs from Apollo, anyway, clearly returned more than the cost.

There are services that host those for you, as an alternative to self hosting. I've been using hosted Seafile for a while and very happy with it.
great for china & open source but it's still not the majority.

also, the unix dependcy graph is formidable and needs to be supported to just bootstrap.
As already pointed out, civilian transponders are not really "IFF", they're a tool for ATC to keep track of you.

Military IFF transponders don't emit unless they get interrogated by a valid code, and then only briefly.

The interrogating plane would typically only interrogate if you show up as a radar contact, and at that point, being able to say "I'm friendly" is very useful. You're not hidden anyway.

Note that the name "Identification Friend or Foe" is misleading; IFF can only positively identify friendlies. A nonresponsive bogey (unknown) may still be a friendly with bent IFF, wrong codes, etc.
If the binaries are small then to what extent are inefficiencies of read/load affecting the workload?

Modern kernels are probably smart enough to already handle this for repetitive behavior.

Of course you could always profile things to determine what’s happening and whether any of the suggestions actually improve anything.

From Lambda Calculus to the Four Color Theorem [pdf]
The amount of fuel needed to become airborne is a fraction of the amount of fuel needed to achieve cruising altitude. So using a catapult would only save a puny amount of fuel, as well as add risk to takeoffs.

Plus, if you actually watch a video of a modern catapult launch, you'd realize that you're speaking out of your ass. Going from 0-170mph (the rotation speed of an A320), in a short amount of space is going to impart huge G forces on both the aircraft as well as the crew and passengers. Catapults also fail, and a "cold cat" on an airline sized plane (without zero/zero ejection seats for everyone) means a mass fatality event.

Man, HN is just full of people suffering from Dunning-Kruger.
Basically enough to fit the download in RAM + a bit more.

In practice, you kinda need a GPU, even a small one. Otherwise prompt processing is really slow.

Would you say this is still true? I’m about to receive the 2023 Subaru Forester. It seems like it has good reliability from all the reviews.
Yes, Nadella.
It's chronologically impossible to rank the best long-term reliability of new cars. At best, you can rank who made the most reliable new cars 10 years ago, which isn't helping anyone trying to buy new cars now. As someone who usually buys 10 year old cars, an article about the reliability of new cars is clearly not aimed at you.
If you're staying within Python and its C-extensions, there is no marshalling, you're dealing with raw PyObjects that are exposed to the interpreter.
Is it truly mysterious though? I find it interesting whenever HN has a strong fascination with all things related to "Japanese-ness". For example, there have been links to wikipedia pages of some Japanese term, and it will make front page with comments. I can't think of any other nation that has this kind of cultural representation on here.

And yet, the myth of Japanese "uniqueness" is largely the product of Japanese national propaganda, serving many useful purposes for the state, for example increasing tourism and limiting permanent immigration. I find it quite fascinating in modern times this propaganda still lives on strongly throughout the world, as people say "things are so different in Japan."
I had two similar experiences in the past years: I added some database indices, the application become super fast, the rest of the team starts acting weird, I get shown the door.

At this point I'm pretty sure anything IT relate became a bullshit job.

SpaceX was using stainless steel for Starship since at least 2019, so pretty sure you are demonstrably wrong here.

Its fun to say space man bad, but don't equate complex production cycles to teams of competent engineers not knowing basics.

Nothing personal, just interesting to see how engineers think about how their work can harm other humans, yet some jobs are about creating machines or weapons meant for destruction.
Poor Charlie's Almanack
My mazda has absolutely HUGE a-pillars, which are, in my opinion, a far larger threat to pedestrians, than having a simply larger vehicle. Like you can fit a family of 4 with a stroller in mine, I find myself leaning way forward to check that blind spot every time I turn right.

And even that is second fiddle to people using their phones while driving, which is an absolute plague in general, not just for pedestrian safety, but safety overall.
Sounds like you're overthinking it? Fail to build enough housing for five+ decades and watch what happens. The situation is not a subtle one where we need to inspect the tea leaves.

Not to mention real wages have stagnated for almost as long with 1%ers taking a larger and larger slice of the pie. Trying to blame the housing crisis on workers getting paid too much is misguided to say the least.

Fire every programmer in the world and at most it might make a temporary minor dent in the housing market. Those "overly paid" tradesfolks would pick up the slack in short order.
I have had 5 Toyota trucks and only replace them because I get antsy every few years for the newest thing. Never had a single problem with one and my current 19 taco at 70k miles just feels like a break in period. Each time the trade is is quite close to what I paid for it. Have been looking at getting a late 80's 4runner as a fun second rig and don't anticipate any issues with that either.
This is true of basically every car ever. Lead acid batteries can’t maintain a charge forever. Get a battery tender if you aren’t going to drive for long periods of time. If you only drive once a month do you even need to own a car? Just rent/uber when you occasionally need a car.
Not for long, anyway.

They bought it already. It’s called an “architectural license. Probably not necessary for just the instruction set but I’m sure there are patents and trademarks involved that mean you wouldn’t want to go forward without them.
If you told anyone in 2013 that TSMC would be a few nodes ahead of Intel you'd be laughed out of the room. So who knows, maybe China can do the same. I'm flabbergasted how the west lost its lead in manufacturing in geral. Nothing surprises me anymore there.

To be fair, Model Y's don't really look like pre-EV sedans. They depart significantly in shape and style: lack of grille for air intake, low drag coefficient, vastly increased cargo space, flush door handles, glass roof, incredible visibility of surroundings from the driver seat (compared to cramped sedans), etc.
