I haven't ran the numbers or anything but I would assume supplying the high PSI oxygen for a long burn duration would be a considerable engineering challenge. You would need a system to jump start with bottled oxygen and then a heat exchanger in the combustion chamber to gasify LOX once stable detonation is reached. It is likely New Space companies have run the numbers on engine weight versus a contemporary staged combustion engine and found it to be little to no efficiency gain.

AWS is extremely overengineered for startups. In order to create a simple SaaS on AWS you have to invest much more time comparing to Azure. So, I only use their S3/Route53/Email services and do the rest on Azure.
This is currently untested (though, trials are in progress) and really could go either way in the courts.

I think you're supposed to assume that it's the library that will do the cataloguing.

But at the same time, you're supposed to do your research to make sure the institution you want to donate your collection to has the capability and capacity to properly care for it and make it both secure and accessible.

Just because it's a local library doesn't mean they can.

As others have pointed out, there’s some tradeoffs here. One of them I’m not seeing mentioned is better forward compatibility. As a user, when Apple adds new features like built-in photo OCR, updated UI elements, better navigation patterns, etc., and I update iOS, every SwiftUI app I have gets those features without the developer doing anything.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a similar reaction to cholesterol lowering drugs, and eventually we found out there were long term "unintended consequences"? The heuristic "If it's too good to be true, it probably is" seems appropriate here. Yes, I understand what the initial testing (that got the approval) shows. I'm simply suggesting that when you f*k with a system as complex as the human body and such benefits, there's a better than good chances that's a balloon grab; that something unfortunate is going to eventually pop out to even the score.

We'll see.
That setting window.. whilst I don't really think swift UI has anything to do with.. it's just so awful, lifted right out of ios, where it is also just awful. As an android user, I don't understand how people put up with that app
Yeah, “Hustling is innovation” sounds like bro science. I say this as a bro myself.

It honestly sounds like he’s parroting some decent startup specific advice that he doesn’t really understand.

I read it as:

C’s execute workflows. These are the “I don’t know why we do it this way, I just work here.” people.

B’s improve workflows. They understand the “why”. They can reliably own and improve workflows/processes.

A’s improve systems. They understand that optimal business processes require optimal systems, and have the hutzpah to engage on that level. They’re the ones who sidle up to the founder at the water cooler and say “have you noticed that these two departments are duplicating work?”

This mindset only makes sense in a startup, where things are constantly in flux; where you’re not only delivering widgets, you’re building a company. To succeed at doing both, it’s not enough to have a bunch of ICs who execute their workflows and go home. You really need to be surrounded by “systems thinkers” who are aggressively injecting order into the chaos.

In a corporate setting, where the status quo is more deliberate and static, the calculus is very different.

My friend had been asking for a collaboration in a small JS project that we could do together. I had few ideas on the back of my head, but I saw this joke tweet[1] and I thought it'd be a good beginner project: it had a lot of moving parts, while nothing too complicated on itself.

So I proposed to do this project to him and we made it in a couple of weekends. Yes, you could have done it in a few hours, probably me too! But that was not the goal. I also used it to fresh up myself in a more modern stack, gone are the days I'd use Heroku for a tiny project like this.

Stack: Hono.js, Cloudflare Workers+KV, Github API, dynamic SVGs, Inkscape, DALL-E 2.

What happened with the NDAA makes it clear that defense contractors are hiding advanced technology related to UAPs.

The UAP Disclosure Act unanimously passed the Senate. When it got to the House, it was completely gutted by the man who is Lockheed's #1 Lobbying Recipient (Mike Turner). Here is the response from the Senate when the House killed the bill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0HoXkQXpVE

So it's clear, defense contractors have advanced technology that not even Congress or the President can learn about.

Power users aren't happy that Firefox has been doing nothing but trailing Chrome for years, actively making the browser worse for power users by weakening extensions, baking ads into the browser, wilfully refusing to permit opt-out of telemetry, and lying about revenue-sharing with Pocket. [0][1][2][3][4][5][6]

Mozilla gave its CEO a raise of over $1m/year, from a starting point that was already over $1m/year, at a time when Firefox was losing usage share, while laying off engineers.
Mozilla did all this while congratulating itself for putting people before profits! [7][8][9][10]

I still use Firefox as my primary desktop browser, and I really want to like Mozilla, but here we are.

(As an aside, I see Pocket is finally going to be made Free and Open Source Software, which is good news. [11])

I'm not sure if you're asking actual or rhetorical questions. Assuming they're genuine:

> Are you telling him that they are wasting half of the benefits they could get from the sun? They could have a nice warm planet AND drive around in electric cars all day? For free? Everything else would stay the same?

Strictly speaking, yeah, they're not using all the energy they could. "Wasting" seems like a weird way to say it though, because it feels like that implies they want to be doing something with it.

> If so, doesn't that make driving a car "free" in that it not even increased the amount of entropy? Since the sunlight would have turned into high entropy heat anyhow?

On a long enough timescale nothing matters from the point of view of entropy. Net entropy will always increase. This is a pretty useless observation if you're trying to make a value judgement on the much smaller timescale of a civilization or the much smaller physical system of a planet, where having easily harnessable energy is important.
What I meant by platform is GitLab/GitHub/Teamcity/etc. You can at least use the same CI platform for all your builds, you "just" need some macOS runners/build agents to do iOS builds. Xcode cloud is another platform that basically nothing integrates with - an additional shit option to add to the existing pile of shit options.
Both came into play, so not only what was talked about but how it was talked about. I ran through HN comments and when ranking authors by how similar they were to me, I found that the account I used years ago was within the top 10 or so closest users out of ~60k
I would also argue that if the retailer chooses the third party provider, there is no functional difference. If I, as a customer, can choose the carrier, I can make a decision that weighs price, experience, etc. If the retailer chooses, I assume they are choosing based on cost and bear full responsibility for resulting poor experience.
Because training a model costs millions, so each time you experiment with trying to create a new kind of model it costs millions.
If you're doing 3 PRs a day, I think it's reasonable to start to pay for CI resources.

When I studied Physics, I could sometimes take hours to digest a single page of a textbook or my lecture notes - providing that it was a good textbook.

It’s not enough to just understand what is written. You have to understand why it is like described. Why it can’t be different - or could it? You need to build an intuition for both the physics and the math describing it.

You have to push until it clicks.

It’s hard work.
I think i'd rather be sure my code behave like it did when i compiled it over having unexpected side effets at each os release.

Venus would be a pretty unpleasant place to live for many reasons, one of which is how balmy it is due to its atmosphere being quite effective at trapping heat from the sun.

We actually spend quite a bit of energy doing the work of moving heat from colder to hotter areas because humans don't like to be too hot.
It could be worthy just as a contrast to all the other apps using addictive patterns for other less beneficial uses.

The ethics of it are neutral if the user has the controls. If someone else has the controls then there still might be ethical uses. Which particular instance of usage vs. bait and reinforcement would depend on the context of the ongoing process between the user and the provider...

Much like we require some medical therapies to be monitored and prescribed by trained and licensed providers; perhaps the dangers of unethical use here would require society to be involved in the form of regulations and professional standards.

"app" is a distraction; irrelevant to the question of ethics. Can you as an individual go teach someone a new thing that brings them joy, praise them and otherwise reward them in ways they find pleasant, without expecting to face social consequences? If it's wrong for an "app" to do it it otter be wrong for you, as well.

Would it be right to just go teach someone else's kid to play drums, without any oversight or preparation for the negative consequences? Dow we really want our society to encourage the undisciplined spread of libertine free-thinking like that?

I suspect they'll see a new account setup quite quickly called "NotByteDance" or something similar.
I'm surprised that Apple didn't opt for a hybrid approach.

They control the OS. They also control Swift. So why not embed the Swift version that the app was built against, and then download that swift version to the user's device when they download an app that uses it. Then:

- The app runs against the exact Swift version it was built against

- The app size is smaller because you're no longer shipping the Swift libraries with the app

- The impact on the user's device space is minimized since it only downloads each version of Swift once (to be shared by all apps that use that version), and only on demand.

- If a new version of Swift comes out before an OS upgrade, simply add it to the list. It gets downloaded the same as the rest.

They could even add some predictive Swift downloading for the most popular versions of Swift to avoid unnecessary delays downloading it.

But you just mentioned that you had a patent, a thing thing that exists to protect innovators from being copied by competitors to leave a fair time to cash out on your work, but ultimately a large corporation got ownership of it. How is this not a joke?
Okay, let's say that you are right and it doesn't matter if startups get disadvantaged and software developer salaries get depressed.

You would still have to fill out in your time sheet whether you are doing maintenance or R&D. This will lead to developers being burdened with more bureaucratic busy work.

From 12:30 to 13:00 I was working on updating software library X Y Z to the latest version and changing the code to use the new API. From 13:00 to 14:00 I added a new feature using the new API.

Are those first thirty minutes maintenance? Can you deduct them? You as a software developer will have to know the tax rules now.
As it stands western NATO nations are too timid to shoot down an Iranian unmanned loitering munition fired by russia and flying across NATO country to bomb Odessa. According to dpa (German news agency):

>russian drones violated Romanian (NATO ) airspace tonight. German interceptors approached the drones, “visually confirmed contact but have not received an order to destroy drones”. So the drones flew further towards Ukraine to kill Ukrainians. One drone exploded in @NATO airspace.

https://news.yahoo.com/russian-drone-attack-ukraine-violates...

only NATO response was this pathetic:

"The ministry strongly condemns the attacks by the Russian Federation on individual objects and elements of civilian infrastructure in Ukrainian ports on the Danube,”

In case you think shooting it down would be bad here is some contrast from Turkey https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_Russian_Sukhoi_Su-24_shoo... russia understands only violence, nothing else matters.
That's my favourite way to play magic. Real cardboard magic is very expensive hobby. Digital magic (like Mtg Arena) is usually toxic, too competitive and meta-driven for my liking.

So, instead, I enjoy playing against AI. And AI here is actually decent. It can't do combo or play slow control decks well, but with aggro archetypes it's an actual challenge.

If you want to try it - start with Adventure - it is a mode where you get a starter deck and go into the open world to explore and challenge other planeswalkers. You earn cards and gold that can be spent on more cards. It's fun because you don't get stuck playing the same best cards over and over. All cards from a long magic history are available and have equal chances to show up in rewards. It takes a skill to build a deck from pile of random variable quality cards. But, oh boy, does it feel good when you get good at it.
Now someone else just needs to make a company in the middle that will generate the training data for you.
I don’t really get why Apple’s pushing this (other than a cash grab). You can already submit builds to TestFlight/the App Store with GitHub actions.
Interesting so another unfair advantage for Apple themselves. AWS and other vendors can't offer per second or minute billing but I assume they're doing it for the 25h of credits.
Spaced repetition is underrated. I still remember a lot from my cards despite not having studied them for years
There was no such country as "Greece" in 1801. Athens was a city in the Ottoman Empire and "Greece" referred to a country that hadn't existed for nearly 2000 years.

"Greece" stopped existing as a country in 146 BC, when the Romans defeated its last city state, Corinth. The former country was then merely a region of the Roman Empire, followed by the Byzantine Empire, followed by the Ottoman Empire.

If you want to give the marbles back, which is a popular sentiment these days, you should give them back to the legal successor of the Ottoman Empire, which is Turkey. The marbles have never belonged to the modern Greek state established in 1821. Once Turkey gets their marbles back, they could put them in the Acropolis museum if they think it appropriate.
If I were SCOTUS, here's how I would settle this question:

The accused can't be compelled to produce a password, and the prosecution can't use the defendant's silence as an argument against them. BUT the police can explain in court that they were unable to search and/or seize what's listed on the warrant due to an unknown password and unbreakable encryption.

In other words, they can't say "Joe wouldn't give us his phone password and that means he's guilty". But they can say "we were unable to search his phone or collect these documents listed on the warrant due to unbreakable phone security".

There's not a huge difference between those two statements when it comes to the jury. They'll understand that evidence is missing, and that the defendant can probably produce it but won't. Maybe civil libertarians won't like that, but I think that's misplaced: there is a warrant, remember, it's not just a random search. And the defendant can always produce it if it's exculpatory.
Let’s be honest they are way over their goodwill sla on fixing a lot of issues.

But you are right —- it is not. I would object to someone saying the government can’t move faster and not break things, however.
> Not necessarily

Of course it isn't true literally every single time, but it's certainly true on average. There is a strong correlation between a man being respected by many other men, e.g. high status among his peers, and that man being a stable reliable provider.

If their is a famine, who gets cut off from the communal source of food first? The man all the other men like, or the man none of the other men respect? If the company is shedding dead weight who is more likely to get laid off? Who gets the best reviews from their colleagues and is most eligible for promotion? In all cases, the man most respected by other men has an advantage. Such men are desired by an larger than average portion of women. This in turn creates a reinforcing dynamic where women see a man being desired by women and in turn desire him for themselves more. This in turn causes even more men to respect him.

Tldr it's good to be respected. And because respect begets more respect, it doesn't even necessarily matter how the respect was initially seeded. Having others witness you being respected is at least as important as doing something actually worthy of respect.

To me there seems to be 3 issues.

1. You're basically patenting algorithms, which aren't supposed to be patentable.

2. There seems to be an assumption that anything new is unobvious and therefore patentable. And in computing that isn't really the case.

I have no programming training but still independently invented lz compression. Something that is deemed patent worthy.

3. A patent is supposed to describe how to actually do the thing. Software patents by and large don't do that.
