Definitely. I take an alternative but similar approach: since I control the zip files, I can guarantee that the header is always within the last N kilobytes of the zip file (configurable value of N). I spend a HEAD request to get the length of the zip file and then walk backwards by N kilobytes. You would request the few bytes at the beginning instead of using that request to get the file length.
No, because the URL is not the message, it's the address. Per the acronym, it's the locator only. It's not for data.

URL's get stored in logs, analytics, and so forth, where they're expected to be short.

Payloads don't. So you put the payload part in the payload, not the address.

I’m not sold on these war horses being giant.

I’d actually never thought about this which is strange considering how interesting I’ve found dogs of war. Doing some quick research it does not sound like medieval war horses were huge.

Sorry, but that's a pretty dick thing to do to someone who just got laid off, especially considering it could otherwise be a write-off.
I'm upvoting you because your satire is biting. British, Vonnegut-level.

> my ISP blocked the router's web interface

This is the weirdest thing in your story. Your ISP disallowed you from configuring your router? I've never heard of such a thing, and it certainly sounds ... suspicious. You should be able to get to your own router without even connecting to the internet. Your ISP should never even know when you're connecting to your router. I commonly hit my router's admin page when my internet is down to figure out whether it's my computer or my external connection.

Why would your ISP want to hire so many extra people to nanny all their customer's routers for them? Are you sure this wasn't an excuse from your parents who installed parental controls on it or something?
What I've seen and hate in recent years is HR taking control of pipeline and interview panels so that individual interviewers or hiring managers don't see all applicants or interview feedback. They don't want teams recruiting from their network or discussing openly.

This basically results in a lot of mediocre "diverse" candidates, and many hiring objections being ignored or not shared with others.

It’s ironic, because my teams typically were the most diverse when you look at their economic backgrounds, graduating from state schools, older people, veterans, etc. - while other teams I worked with were very frequently monocultures of young attractive people from good schools and backgrounds. But somehow skin color makes things “diverse“.

Knowing Verilog, I must disagree. Although it would be more beneficial if the book focused on hardware, its primary goal is to teach something other than hardware-specific definitions. HDL serves as a bridge to illustrate communication with predefined logic gates.

The book should include a mention or an appendix to clarify its real-world applications. By the end of chapter five, I was dissatisfied, feeling a lack of control over the crucial aspects of the hardware I just built. However, a book can only do justice to some of the missing pieces of information we have.
I've done the same. The specs of even the cheapest switchmode power amp IC's are excellent, and most of the cheap boards just copy the IC manufacturer's reference circuit. Conveniently, the one I got can switch between a line input and Bluetooth, which improves the convenience factor even if Bluetooth might be of questionable audio quality. But with the line input, it's straight from DAC to the power amp.

So far there are 3 of these setups in my house.
You're chucking around the unsourced assertion, you tell me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Ludwig_Mowinckels_Rederi doesn't say anything along those lines.
I played both of them.
Turing complete has a more non-linear arcade mode. I mean that you can choose which level you want to complete first.

There is also soundtrack and a little bit of story line present.
There is also gog version of this game.

I feel that I learned almost no new skills this semester, but I remember asking my circuit design lecturer questions about this game (in particular, about the possibility of constructing full-adder with fewer elements). That was fun

You can stick to nandgame, if you don't want to pay, you loose almost nothing, but playing Turing Complete is more handy because it keeps progress on your computer and/or on the steam account.
So, if you clean cookies every time you restart your browser, when using ungoogled-chromium for example, you better play Turing complete.

Also one internet friend advised me to play incredible pm

It is a similar game, but the main theme is proofs rather than digital circuits. Hasn't played yet, unfortunately.

I had a very similar experience with this book I must have been 14 or something and it was fascinating to me.
My degree is in literature. (I'm that dev who also writes docs, makes presentations, and serves as tech lead.) I still know that foreign key constraints should be the default. I even often have to remind those with CS and CE degrees that DBs aren't just dumb bit buckets and that database schemas are critical business logic.

Just gave it a go. The flexibility to switch models dynamically based on their availability and latency is impressive. It is much required for scenarios requiring high reliability. The ability to pass models' priority order adds another layer of excellence.

That's really interesting, what would be the mechanism of action for a headache induced by consciously imperceptible levels of marijuana in the air? I see this comment often so I believe you, I just haven't been able to conceive of how that would actually work but such a strong physiological reaction from such a tiny amount is really interesting.

What happens if you are exposed to higher concentrations, is it a medical emergency of some kind? And what specifically happens? I'd love to learn more.
I like side-by-side. That was how TeXStudio worked (TeX on the left, rendered PDF on the right), and VSCode does the same thing with its Markdown previews
LLM's generate 'the next token' require a serialization of data, and prevents 'too much' parallelization.

I wonder if some sort of diffusion hybrid is being worked on.

Something that approximates a complete text answer, but 'increases the resolution' of that text over time.

One key benefit to a 'shot-gun/top-down/all-at-once' approach as opposed to a 'guess the next token => add and repeat' is the ability for the tokens at the end of the text (a twist in a surprise mystery story) have a direct effect on the beginning of that story. which (as far as I know) is not possible in current LLM's due to their architecture.

how self attention and positional encoding would work in a diffusion model... that's the question I have if that could even work...

to be clear, I don't mean stable diffusion rendering text as an image. I mean diffusion run on raw (random) text: turning that into a legible response.
When I was 16 I wrote games on my TI-86 in TI Basic to play during school, and learned VBA to make silly desktop apps (one would open a bunch of internet browsers to a youtube video of mine- a montage of Call of Duty clips that I wanted more views on).

He won't be released. He'll be tortured and restrained with pharmacy, with no end.

In fact, his autism should preclude him from a sentence in prison or a mental institution. As both of these settings will be much more stressful than they would be for anyone else.

Italicizing doesn't give more weight to your attempted point.

We need to know the details on the harassing and stalking before society would agree that an open ended sentence to a mental institution is fair. In spite of italicizing. Was he physically "stalking" people or sending snippy emails to people who he thinks bother him? Social judgement of this situation needs to transcend potential abuse of language.
Islamic divorce law allows for no fault, but is also highly asymmetric in how easy it makes it for men and women. A man can initiate a no fault divorce at any time. A woman can ask for a no fault divorce, but it is up to the husband whether to grant it.

Islam is not the only no fault divorce in history. For example ancient Rome allowed for no fault divorces, on more even terms than Islam later would. It's terms were closer to modern US no fault divorces than Islam's terms are.

Modern US laws are reasonably equal between men and women, and do not come from either of those sources. US law comes from the fact that in some frontier states, the uneven ratio between men and women meant that people saw no reason for an unhappy couple to remain married. If they don't want to be married, let them divorce. And let some other guy have a shot at the wife.

This specifically became an issue with Nevada, because Nevada only required a 6 month residency in the state before you could get a divorce. As travel became easier, people from other states routinely took advantage of this as the easiest way to get divorced. That lasted until changing attitudes during the Sexual Revolution caused other states to start adopting similar laws. See https://renodivorcehistory.org/themes/law-of-the-land/ for more on this.
The idea is that the effects of climate change were much stronger than the effects that were causing the potential ice age. Kind of like a small car on a train track, it may have slowed the advance but did not stop the momentum.

This looks awesome! I love the blocks idea. I’m gonna download and give it a try.

I see lots of comments about Electron (per usual here haha) and I just thought I’d shout out Tauri if you hadn’t run across it. It’s basically Electron-but-in-Rust and uses the system webview instead of Chromium, so bundle size and memory usage is reduced a bunch.

I took a look at the code and it looks like you haven’t got a ton of Electron-side code so if you felt like playing with Rust it might not be too hard to swap. I have a video editing app that I started building with Electron and then switched to Tauri midway and it’s been pretty nice.

I hope it’s clear this isn’t a request and please feel free to disregard this comment entirely :)

Something you couldn't say about crypto with a straight face, so it's an improvement.

Large AI models are the solution. We invented something that can more or less understand the impossible amount of content out there, and distill it in ways specific to each individual.
Does the VM get the address via DHCP, or something else?

I'd first answer that, then answer how the VM is supposed to get configured, then figure out how to break down/instrument the steps along the way.
Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

The nature of the web is changing, and has changed. Since GET requests can't have `body` data, if you have any hope of passing information along to a GET request, you must encode it in the URL in some way. This can be particularly important for things that contain unique but repeatable parameters that augment what you see on first load that would only be known by the consumer, and then can be shared by URL. For example, options set on a table you want to share with those options intact.
If the only way for people to keep apace of rising costs is to get a new job, that's got to be massively disruptive to businesses.
I’m not surprised tailwind was not enough. If you use tailwind you’ve decided css or scss was not enough, meaning probably nothing will ever be enough for you.

Those unable to walk will always trade in their crutches for wheelchairs.
I use syncthing for this. It's a little fiddly to set up, and transfer speeds aren't great. However, it's very reliable once configured, and it barely uses any resources after an initial scan of the folder you want to sync.
As far as I could tell reading that DEA memo, they were being really sneaky with what they said. None of the pill manufacturers had hit their allotment, but they didn't say anything about the raw ingredient manufacturers which are under a different quota. And most of the shortages I've seen in the FDA shortages database were listed as 'shortage of active ingredient'. (Or 'demand increase', which isn't specific enough to know that it's not literally the same thing.)
Yeah, even if it's not official policy, we just basically write-off all laptops given to staff and then give them if there's a layoff.

In the rare case there's still a depreciable value on the books there is an additional severance payment equivalent to the final "value".
Unusual to use the plural "wheels" in the headline when in reality, one wheel once flew off. It does sound a little less snappy that way though.
So you can look to the past and present, but don't want to look to the future?

What about the people growing up now who have only ever been discriminated against? What happens to these demographics in 20 or 30 years? We're lucky the backlash is happening now and not then.

Creating more discrimination is never the solution, it just creates more problems.

Here is the source code of the OpenBSD implementation of cat:

and here of the GNU coreutils implementation:

Thus: I don't think building a cat from scratch or creating a tutorial about that topic is particularly hard (even though the HN audience would likely be interested in it). :-)

Damn, no CarPlay or Android Auto.
Good point about sync. Probably could use iCloud Drive or Google Drive for data.
While it seems like most people focus on CarPlay / Android Auto being omitted from all of GM's EVs, I think it's more worrisome that I've seen some articles about various gremlins plaguing the electronics. For example, https://www.edmunds.com/car-news/2024-chevy-blazer-ev-long-t...

It's about the size of a Mach-E / Model Y and priced similarly, but I think that's optimistic for Chevrolet.

At this point, the less expensive Equinox EV would likely be a lot more interesting.
I’m quite sure Servicenow or Okta can do this. But there are probably cheaper options out there.
That's because rents temporarily cratered when people couldn't move due to lockdowns. But that was monthly, during the latter half of 2020 and the early half of 2021. Moving season is early summer, so people were locked into leases until prices rose again. Then, those leases were hiked in a massive price-fixing scheme, I mean raised in observance of inflation.
This is why Google ranks responses, then added the side box and tries to answer the question directly. Most people just want the answer and click on the first link. A negligible number ever move to the next page.

This is of course the opposite motivation to that of the people who write the pages. They (mostly) want you to go to their page.

But those authors aren’t Google’s target audience; they want to show an ad to their real audience.

I’d rather have a page of links but I know I’m an outlier so I don’t bother to get upset.
I don't really grok how the API of this - which appears to be very file-oriented - would be adapted to querying a sql interface like bigquery. How would that look?
Apple does not generally have the best performance / price: if we use passmark benchmarks[1], the 16-core M3 Max gets 10CPUMark/$, while the ASUS ROG Strix G17 gets 25CPUMark/$.

If we look at the low-end, it is much worse: the cheapest Macbook Pro ($1600) gets 12CPUMark/$, while the Dell Inspiron 15 3535 ($420) gets 45CPUMark/$.

I know there's much more to laptops than their CPUs, but I think my point is still valid.

I'd be very interested to know how preemptive (rather than cooperative) multi-tasking is implemented. It's been a while but I don't remember the Z80 having any suitable primitives upon which to implement preemption.

I poked around the website but it seems light on implementation details. Super-impressive piece of work though.

Edit to say: thank you to the responders who've backfilled the gaps in my memory. Interesting what you forget given enough time.

Back in high school, I wrote a maze generator in BASIC, that printed the maze using ASCII characters. Then I figured out the biggest maze that would fit on a sheet of 132 column green bar paper, and submitted the job to the mainframe computer.

Next morning, I got an angry rebuke from the teacher. The mainframe operator had killed my program after it had run for quite some time, assuming it was an endless loop. It just turns out my program had some astronomical order of complexity.

I sure wish I still had the source code.
location hashes are an under-used feature of the web. I completely agree with this. It would seem however, that most applications that would benefit from this, the routing in use relies entirely on the web history API to determine what happens, but none simultaneously support both the web history API and hash fragments, which would really be the best of both worlds when used properly.

That said, there are many instances where you need server data and you don't want to get it post-render (thus avoiding the now dreaded spinners on first load), you don't have many options

Or in the request headers.
It's net-positive activity full-stop, not just economic activity.

The US dollar thrives because it's backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. Which in all practical terms means it's backed by our guns, or more precisely our ability to wage war. Closely allied nations and currencies such as the Euro, the Pound, and the Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand Dollars similarly benefit.

So in immediate terms you may see it as a wealth transfer, in longer timescales opening up our economic horizons (improving economic and political conditions with our allies and opening fronts for investment with new allies) improves our ability to grow GDP, revenue, our tax base, and our ability to do more business in our own currency.

That's pretty much the payoff, if you're looking for one in strictly economic terms.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel, kid.
You're making a category error, I think. This books/course doesn't cover physics. It doesn't even cover signal stuff, like stuff about how fast the voltage levels stabilize, or even voltages at all.

It's not "silicon wafer to Tetris" or "pile of protons and neutrons to Tetris" or "transistors to Tetris". You start with nand gates (and later also you get flipflops for free).

This course would work equally well on nand gates made of carved wooden gears, or nand gates made with fluidic logic, or nand gates made by encoding the whole thing into O-gauge hobby railroads.

If that's the level of explanation you seek, this book is incredible.
