> Trying to come up with everything from scratch could take a lot longer and be very frustrating

If that is frustrating instead of thrilling to you then you probably shouldn't do these competitions.
As an uninvolved bystander I can agree that the reason it is noteworthy can be separated from the fact of whether or not it is.

In this case I think there are a few reasons of note which were already alluded to, but I don't personally think it need call any questions about the validity of the experiments and the other reasons being around the potential future value of associated company, any opinions of which are for the individual and their financial advisors to consider.

I wasn't aware of the fact there was already a company created for it but it does say something about the confidence these researchers have placed in the results, even if that may not be noteworthy, per se, regarding the results.
Being able to output parametric models would be amazing. Much less interesting otherwise.
We have them at our office, and they suffer from many of the problems in the blog post. The lighting is atrocious, and they can get stuffy after a while. At least for the small ones, you also have very little room.

A point in their favor, though, is that they are very soundproof, at least the ones that we have.
The title may be a play on a somewhat well-known philosophy paper, "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?" by Thomas Nagel in The Philosophical Review (Oct 1974):

"Our own experience provides the basic material for our imagination, whose range is therefore limited. It will not help to try to imagine that one has webbing on one's arms, which enables one to fly around at dusk and dawn catching insects in one's mouth; that one has very poor vision, and perceives the surrounding world by a system of reflected high-frequency sound signals .... In so far as I can imagine this (which is not very far), it tells me only what it would be like for me to behave as a bat behaves. But that is not the question. I want to know what it is like for a bat to be a bat. Yet if I try to imagine this, I am restricted to the resources of my own mind, and those resources are inadequate to the task."

Edit: The author addresses these questions - without mentioning Nagel by name - in the section "Why Imagining Other Minds Is Important for Understanding them".
All parts of the charging chain have temperature sensors (charger, cable, plug, adapter, inlet, battery). If they overheat they'll derate.

If your car can pull 500 amps then you should get an adapter rated for 500 amps. Here's an example:

I couldn’t disagree more. I’d be interested in any sort of evidence, or something, to expand on your claim. I have lived in various areas that fit that description my entire life, never experienced annoyed neighbors or heard 3rd party complaints, etc.
Sure. I'm not trying to say people can't be assholes or aren't being assholes. If the area is walking only with no place to park anything, then that should be enforced. But excusing car drivers just because everything has bent in their favor legally seems to miss the point.

Practically speaking, at least in the US, there's rarely any good or approved place to park anything but a car anywhere. I'm upset with the scooters, but I'm also upset with bikers locking their bikes to trees, or people parking motorcycles in unexpected places. Half of the time there's dedicated motorcycle or bike parking, some asshole parks their car there and isn't fined/towed.

Point being, there's a lot of money behind making it incredibly easy to take a car to anything in the US, and while other options are regularly annoying in parking places that aren't allowed, I've seen some moves over the last few years to make dedicated scooter parking or expand bike parking to accommodate, and that's a net good. It's certainly not that Bird is part of some righteous civil disobedience program by leaving scooters in the middle of the sidewalk, but the scooter plague has done more to improve bike/personal scooter parking than years of pressure from bikers, so I'll take it.

> Why does Tailwind not build framework agnostic UI components?

For the same reasons that PrimeFaces has PrimeNg (Angular), PrimeReact, and PrimeVue.

Given the way all the different stuff works together, that's the way it has to be done.

I'm still amazed they're asking for $299 for this!

Prime is MIT licensed. "Here, clone our repo on GitHub and do whatever you want!". Professional support is paid.

It looks good, it works, and no, I don't work for them. But $299 for this Tailwind thing seems rather crazy in comparison.

There is also PrimeFlex, which lets you do stuff like:

<div class="shadow-3 m-3 surface-card text-center p-3 border-round-sm h-6rem w-9rem flex align-items-center justify-content-center font-semibold">shadow-3</div>

Which of course looks a lot like working with Tailwind.
Yes, dude is on a quixotic quest to get his AI recognized as an inventor, and is basically being denied in every jurisdiction.

TFA links to an article about him being rejected in the US, https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-supreme-court-rejects-compu... . The interesting/surprising part for me is that Lawrence Lessig and some other academics wrote briefs supporting his claim.
Chip-Chat: My journey using ChatGPT to design a chip for tapeout
In March of this year a post made it to the front page of Hacker News regarding Tiny Tapeout(https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35376645). Here, they had made a process where you could submit custom, miniature silicon designs to a subset of a silicon shuttle for just $100.

I was already using LLMs to write Verilog for my research, so I was inspired to start another thread exploring if they were yet reliable enough to design whole chips. They were, and I right now have christmas tree LEDs blinking and controlled from a micro designed by ChatGPT and taped out by Efabless!

My blog post explores the whole journey as it happened, and links to the various repositories, paper, and webinars along the way.
It's odd you go straight to a trope about a cult. If I'm happy with something I don't always have the time, energy, or interest to seek out something better.

It's completely unsurprising to expect the first generation of something like this, even if it was amazing, to have annoying flaws. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound amazing. Car companies have a long track record of disappointing infotainment systems and there's zero reason to expect anything better here. In fact, the problems in this article sound identical to the ones I had with Honda's most basic level infotainment system just a couple years ago. It would freeze and the only fix was turning off the car...a difficult solution on road trips. Asking the dealer about it, they said there was no update process for it--maybe a newer model year wouldn't have that issue?
Parts of this essay remind me of the 2020 novel Time Shelter [1] by Georgi Gospodinov (another Bulgarian). Especially this part:

My feeling is that all the troubles we’ve been witnessing over the last decade—Trumpism, Brexit, the rise of nationalism all over Europe, Russia’s virulent imperialism—are attempts to disrupt not just the dominant political systems, but the zone of eternal repetition. In most cases, these attempts are ridiculous, ersatz, misguided imitations of ideologies borrowed from the past, exposing their own imaginative shortages—they aspire to move the hands of the clock, even if backwards—but it’s hard to deny they represent dissatisfaction and resentment with the way things are. There is, it seems to me, a subconscious craving to be taken out of the boredom of timelessness and be thrown back into the flux of time, even if that means violence or war—anything but the broth!

Yep, maybe a bit scratched up. Also some black mold from when we first used a floor mattress without a frame under it. Never put mattresses directly on hardwood! Lesson learned.
That's exactly how I've always visualized conditional probabilities as well.
the negatives of thermal paper (namely, that it will warp with significant temperature fluctuation) are irrelevant

Also the fact that thermal prints fade very quickly. Perhaps that may also be why no one makes rolls of them in larger than for receipts.
In my experience, yes. I think we spent like $250 on the laser at my wife’s doctor office, where they went through dead trees like a beaver on meth.
Aston Martin and Porsche showed off nextgen Apple CarPlay coming to cars in 2024
Jokes on them, look at that fishhook on top of the a. Totally waiting to snag some unsuspecting saps eyelid.
I think you're giving too much credit to the people and their decisions and not the circumstances of the business that HP is in. The fact is that the printing business was completely reshaped by re-manufactured ink/toner.

The business is razors and blades, build the printer, take a loss on it and make it up on the back end with toner/ink sales. As soon as cheap 3rd party ink/toner became ubiquitous all of the printer manufacturers were put into an existential crisis. The most popular solution, DRM. The big boys got to it quicker than the little guys, but every one of them knew this was 100% necessary or they'd get their lunch eaten at either end (upfront sales from DRM'd devices because they are cheap and backend toner sales from remans). Ever since its been a cat/mouse game of breaking DRM for 3rd party toner suppliers and print manufacturers trying to stay ahead. Instant Ink is a play by HP to get out of this game.

Also, I feel like lot's of other product categories are doing the same thing, but get far less hate (e.g. Keurig, video game consoles). Not sure if printers are just easy targets or what.

I think HP laser printers are still OK, it's only the inkjet models which have been affected.

Did Your family have PHEV (not BEV) without charger? It just work as a great hybrid car with overkill battery capacity, so it works.
Another option to trigger functions are vim-inspired leader key sequences such as god mode [1] and the evil leader implementations in spacemacs and doomemacs, for example [2].

I do think it’s a little lacking in palm trees, though.

I think which-key already solves exactly that: https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key
Apple’s installed base is so large (around 2 billion devices) that if 0.1% of them verified their keys, that’s still a useful deterrent.
Although I have a comfortable home office, I still rent a small office within walking distance. It has a conference room and desks for both myself and my business partner. I've found I'm more focused and productive working from there, as it helps me mentally separate work from my personal life. There's a daily ritual of 'going to work' and then coming home, which allows me to switch modes between 'work' and 'family.' This was especially helpful during the COVID lockdown.
Maybe it's worth spending energy to save mass, because energy is delivered by the sun, whereas mass has to be launched. There's probably a thrust vs. delta-v tradeoff for different elements.

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to dunk on the irony of developing a CSS-first toolkit then only releasing headless React components. At least if you used Svelte or WebComponents directly you could compile them down to bind to other frameworks.

I'm not a React hater, but it's time for React-only support for UI toolkits to end. There are other compelling frameworks that are also worth using that are better choices in many cases.
The encryption angle is somewhat uninteresting. Old recorded messages will be broken eventually, quantum computing or not. Thwarting the quantum threat for new keys just requires a constant factor of additional work (key size, encryption cost). Thwarting it without much overhead is an ongoing research problem.

The ______ years question is everyone's best guess. X, Y, and Z though are quantum simulations. Drug discovery, superconductors, "better" alloys (use-case dependent), .... It's shockingly expensive to simulate a properly quantum system, and that cost increases exponentially in its size. 1 atom is manageable usually, ignoring relativity. 2 is an interesting research problem. 3 are tractable if they're homogenous and you're patient. Everything beyond that requires huge simplifications or clever insights (or both). Quantum computing linearizes that simulation cost, for any problem small enough to fit inside the given qubit bounds.

One way to estimate the effect might be to look at current chemistry-related AI/ML news. It's a noiser version of the same results. If that winds up being useful then quantum computers will be even more useful (but perhaps not worth it). If that doesn't advance materials research enough then it's less obvious that a quantum computer will be helpful. Maybe, maybe not.
People: we don't need offices, remote is the future!

Also people: actually, we do need offices for remote work. Moreover, we actually need office buildings.
Anybody using the Epson Ecotank printers? Printing from linux? I've been thinking about switching. I print so infrequently I've been stuck with my HP for like a decade, but it's really struggling in it's old age (slow, doesn't want to print from devices randomly).
DaisyUI is the best IMO, as long as you are willing to customize the theming and the rounded-ness. Daisy's default themes don't look that great IMO.
Yup, I use information density too. Take notes for half an hour, see how many notes you have and how far in you are. Really good books are so information dense that the notes are thicker than the book.

Caveat: Older books are harder to read, not necessarily because they have more information, but because the context is lost today. In a certain era, you're immersed in it, and some things don't need explaining. I spent a lot of time searching for what a Greek chorus is, seems like it's the ancient equivalent of a laugh track.
The caps are set so that the right number of companies fit. Hence ‘500’ in this case. And change to ensure it all works with their goals.

There are many different types of strategies that you’re talking about - momentum, ‘value’, etc. that all set various rules, and are applied in similar ways too.

The analysis I’m talking about isn’t that different, and is still analysis based on fundamentals. It’s just used a bit differently and intentionally trying to be coarse and relatively transparent/mechanical. Private funds keep it opaque and ‘secret sauce’, and have the freedom to do whatever (within the limits of their charter).

Other indexes have more in depth rules that cover exactly the other elements you’re discussing (sector specific indexes, ‘green’ indexes, ‘good governance’ indexes, etc.).

They still use the same analysis tools though.
All of those CRMs are generic CRMs. This Real Estate CRM is built only for Real estate agents and agencies. It has features required for the Real Estate business.
The which-key package helps a lot with discoverability, in my experience.

Bummer. I used the Bird scooters a few times in my city - I found them overpriced and anemically powered, but still useful.
Thanks for the feedback. We have removed the loading bar.
I have no idea how to sell that

I can also build anybody’s application in any stack, but that doesnt get me in the door, doesnt get the recruiter to say anything, doesnt get any hiring manager intro call

What kind of clientele are you going to where you’re just like “I am computer man, from internet, I can build that for you” and they’re like “woooooowwwww you’re hired!”
I only have experience with Shell, Morrisons, and Tesco pay-at-pump stations. In all of those, you have to physically insert your card and type in your PIN; contactless does not exist.
C-h a (apropos-command) makes finding things with unexpected names a lot easier. I relied on C-h f (describe-function) for years, but that only matches function names. Apropos searches doc strings as well.
I'm not at home for a couple days, but http://cwillu.com/files/sympathetic-resonance.rot.mkv should give some sense: iirc I didn't pedal at all in this piece (or maybe only a little, honestly don't remember, it was a couple years ago now), but there are 3 or 4 keys held down silently.

Draw.io (freeware, cross-platform desktop app). I have used it for diagrams mainly, but also for quite a bit of UX mockups.
Its strength is diagrams though. But it is quite generic also in a way.
> btw: is the active state missing from Tailwind since Shadcd buttons are also missing them?

Nope. Tailwind has good support for styling the active state, in the way that you'd expect if you've used Tailwind: e.g., `bg-red-500 hover:bg-red-600 active:bg-red-700`.

You can't take an e-bike on many transit systems. You can't go meet somebody and go walk with them to another location. Rental micromobility is very convenient for those kinds of things.

They don't replace a car or a bike, what they replace is the walk from the train station.
That did help me find https://github.com/cage-kiosk/cage/wiki initially I'm here there's other going down that path. Thanks
Then the programmers who used the AI to make the system are the authors. They added enough value for it to be recognized as their own thing.

Until an AI can do these things on their own the author will continue to be the human driving them.
I never said doctors were the problem, I said congress was the major cause of the problem by limiting the amount of residency slots based on incorrect predictions. Those for-profit engines do have an effect but they're just playing by the rules established by congress.

Not sure where you got conspiratorial or uninformed, here's the study that guided the decision making [1]. I will take sophomoric since I don't know a damn thing about this industry, but both left and right are recognizing the problem and trying to get something done about it which is what we need more of[2].

>It’s all announced and advertised in advance, if you don’t like the way the products are advertised to work, don’t buy the products and don’t complain the products work the way they are advertised to work.

If we followed that logic, the only people who don't have a right to complain would be their paying customers.

>Registering the device to the owner is the responsibility of the owner.

Why is it entirely on the owner? If apple designs the majority of their advertised security apparatus around the concept of device ownership then I'd argue that they do in fact share some responsibility in making sure their devices are properly registered before use.

Doctorow's saying the opposite about Uber.

* Uber offers cheap ride through a cnvenient app and lets drivers keep a lot (?) of the rewards

* Drives taxies out of business

* Uber raises prices and lowers drivers' rewards

* Now more expensive and less reliable than ever

He built a whole economic theory around it, even coined a name for it: Enshitification.
