Ok, my lazy use of words. Substitute the word "fad" with "niche".

VR found a couple of very specific niches where it brought value. LLMs are already starting to pervade society in both good and bad ways and will likely continue on that trajectory. The obvious uses are many, and non-obvious ones are emerging.

If that's what you're saying (it does not appear you are), then we agree.
> address the pilot shortage.

There is no pilot shortage (just like there is no stem shortage). Just a shortage of people willing to work for poverty wages.

Yeah it does, that's why gamedevs and hfts don't use any malloc in the fast path, glibc or otherwise.
Wow, everything sounds terrifyingly similar to Romania. I guess we’ll soon see and participate in some widespread protests in Europe, I don’t see a better way to wake up the officials
Thank you! BTW I assume you will support U2F, Crypto, etc in the future? or do you expect third parties to develop on it?

From a quick glance at the product it seems I should buy the unlocked to have full control of the device and in the future could be a device with a display and some more sensors and/or buttons to know what I am signing in?

I am currently in South America so waiting to travel to one of your shipping locations to buy several TKeys.
What you described would have been a fine strategy. That's not AMD's strategy.

To implement your strategy, you either don't ship mass market GPGPU cards, or you stick a big "beta / prototype" label on ROCm and make sure people use it only caveat emptor. I've bought plenty of half-baked things because I wanted to tinker with them or help a company along. AMD cards are very competitive for gaming too, which really brings volume much more so than GPGPU, so there's no reason to oversell.

AMD's problem is that they're claiming these things work, and they don't. I was fortunate to learn that lesson spending a few hundred bucks. I know people who learned that lesson spending thousands. I wouldn't want to figure out on a data center or a supercomputer whether or not the same lesson applies. If a company is willing to cheaply torch relationships as it figures out a strategy, ship half-baked ill-thought-out software, and make bold, unsubstantiated claims, I'll pick another vendor if at all competitive.

AMD is losing mind share, credibility, and branding. That will hurt if they ever have a product ready for the broader market, and it will also hurt (although not as much) with the strategy you described.
No Apple device can attest to what extensions are running or what apps are installed (at least not without some kind of MDM) and Apple specifically won’t support that to prevent user tracking and fingerprinting.
By underzoned, I meant building up not out. Sprawl is not a long-term answer to any growth challenges.
COVID isn't popularly considered dangerous enough anymore (due to mutation, people's immune systems having some experience with it through prior infection and vaccines, and availability of useful treatments for rarer serious acute cases). The tests also cost money and take time.

I'm kind of surprised that they didn't do so in the past, when COVID was more dangerous and more people were more concerned about it. Possibly vaccination status was then thought to be a good alternative for reducing transmission risk, and many restaurants were legally required to check it.
The programming language C is defined by ISO C, this isn't 1970's any longer.

Thus pure C, by definition is what the said standard since 1989 says what the programming language and standard library is supposed to be.
Also they tried to report it but their dog ate the form.
Apple didn't make a misled decision, they were just one full hype cycle late to the game.
Packages? If we're writing software like the good ol' days you're writing your own packages.
From a product analytics perspective I’d suggest :

1. Think of a product that exists. Define a goal for the product and success metrics you will use. Dau, mau, user retention,incremental revenue etc.
2. Come up with gaurd rail metrics
3. Define performance and reliability metrics as well.

Now try to figure out how you would construct queries to answer these questions. And how would you visualize this info.

Then if you can find datasets or create synthetic data sets to actually write these queries or better yet create pipelines that ultimately feed a dashboard I think would be worthwhile.
20 years ago so had a 4000 dpi film scanner. It was very slow, noisy, and memory hungry. But it made great scans. I have hundreds of rolls of B&W 35mm and 6x7’s on 120 film that I’d love to rescan. I don’t own a digital camera to take a photo of the film. Does anyone have experience on how to go about this? I’ve searched across HN and didn’t come up with much. Surely there are 35mm shooters today that have some contemporary high quality solution? Perhaps an epson v850? This thread gives me pause that it’d not be as good as using a digital camera rig.
I don't think I see the connection between a state's population on average being climate conscious, and a single business entity doing something wasteful. Are you saying this is some kind of "gotcha" against the activists because they're not picketing the hotel?

That’s why I’m a big fan of free software (in the FSF sense). But being a fan also means I’m aware of the consequences we face in our current structure. I’m worried reading these posts most people don’t realize the grave danger they could be in.
Sure, the recipient doesn't have the right to call it their own or commercially distribute/benefit from it. I didn't make a claim otherwise.

I said the code they have does not infringe on the commercially released product called StarCraft as it is not a portion thereof. I even stated that releasing it or otherwise making it available is tenuous at best. So I'm not even sure what you're arguing.

As interesting as this article is as a comparison to a 40 year old supercomputer, the reality is that computers really are artifacts of an era and their place in the progress or regress of technology is possibly valid. Today's world's fastest computer is a Cray:

So, how does the Raspberry Pi stack-up against today's computers?
Well if you call them doomers, it does feel like you have a small bias... but I agree many people that state the world will end within their expected lifespan actually like it.

On the other end you have zero proof that you are not the one in denial right now.

I personally am probably a doomer as you call it, I really think it will go downhill for at least a century, probably more. Not sure if we'll go back to middle age or stone age. The planet will survive, humans will survive, but it won't be pretty.

I don't think we can manage to achieve real net zero CO2 before a very long while (many decades). It would simply require humans to trust each other and sacrifice in a scale that has never happened before. I have little reasons to believe this can happen, definitely not fast enough.

And co2 is just one problem.
Pleasure to meet you.

This was actually bigger than I think people remember. IBM gave away all the information on their bus standard immediately. They clearly understood they had to create a robust third party add on market for the PC and this would be key to driving the platform. They were not wrong.

I'd like to highlight dprint [0]. It is not as opinionated as Prettier, and its AST-node-specific configuration is awesome [1].

It's really rich being on HN having everyone seemingly not understand that non-exclusionary communities don't scale. You can't take a good neighborhood and make it bigger and keep the good, you just regress to the mean.

We all have watched the enshittification of everything in the pursuit of scale and profits from everything from social networks and subcultures to appliances but somehow forget that the high buy-in either in the form of investment in the community in early stages to the extremely high price in the later stages is what makes it work. In places where there is legitimately nowhere to start a new community sure, but the loudest complainers about housing affordability in my area ignore there there are sub $300k, $200k and even a few sub $100k houses right fucking next to the $600k houses. You could break one of their windows with a stray baseball they're so close. You just think that living there is beneath you.

If you don't have dollars you're supposed to pick somewhere cheap to live and put in the work instead to make it the next good neighborhood but seems like the people complaining want good cheap and easy.

Sven doesn’t care about contributing his changes back to your tree and does not assign you copyright. GPL is fine for Sven. Ingrid can use Sven’s GPL changes because she’ll use that license too. You want to dual licence, you can’t use Sven or Ingrid code.

Copyright assignment + gpl so you can charge for a different licence too only works if nobody wants to fork. Doubt that’s the case for this sort of thing.
I think that's "Standard C"?

Pure C surely just means you're only using C. As in, no C++ or Objective C or whatnot. Nothing wrong with calling out to POSIX functions, at least nothing not already obvious.

Admittedly, it run on much fewer platforms - meaning Raspberry Pi for me.
There was also fantastically complete and fully featured software that was stable and all bugs were roughly documented and known by users. Today you get a lot of unfinished software with the attitude that we can patch it if it matters. This is exemplified by video games.
haha.

When "Masters of Orion" came out in the early 90s - and advanced... I had gotten the latest version of the time and lost interest quickly - and a friend asked why I didnt like it - and i replied "I don't like playing a spreadsheet"

So there was an article back a few years ago, there was an article about a guy who lived in the mission in SF and he was basically the accountant to a guild on EVE and he did NOT play the game - he made 100K $USD Real IRL money being paid to manage the finances of some huge Eve guild's in game assets....

He said all he does all day is build spread sheets.

The problem with frequentist confidence intervals is that they don't really tell us anything about the probability that the statistic of interest for our population is contained in the interval - regardless of the size of our dataset.

Not everyone wants to admit - or even understands - that the % confidence is about how frequently such intervals will contain the true value when the procedure is applied to other populations / datasets.
I've actually never seen my objection seriously considered by theologians. (Non-religious people of course just acknowledge it as self-evidently true.) And I've done a lot of reading on this. Nothing in the passage you quoted is new to me, and nothing in it refutes my argument. I make no assumptions about God's nature at all. I don't even require that the omniscient entity be God (though it certainly could be). I am merely pointing out that omniscience logically precludes certain things, namely, the things that are known to the omniscience to be false, and therefore logically precludes omnipotence.

It seems quite doable but you'd need scripting skills to set it all up. Read the incoming queue, pass it to wkhtmltopdf then pipe the result to the mail command. For windows I believe I once used a java smtp server (apache james) that allowed you to set custom code as an incoming email handler. After that the conversion and email sending is trivial.
Here's one I use pretty often:
alias yt-dl="yt-dlp -f 'bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/mp4'"
"bin vs sbin" doesn't read right as English — it's almost-but-not-quite like the words are proper nouns that should be capitalized, but instead, it's that they're missing a symbol to indicate that they're paths. The vagueness would become problematic if I wanted to also use "bin dir" in the same paragraph to refer to binary-containing directories generally (i.e. both bin and sbin.)

And the fact that "bin dir" is used that way, to group together both bins and sbins, is is why I didn't say "bin dirs vs sbin dirs." (Note how the prior sentence reads really oddly?)

Putting them each in quotation marks — "bin" vs "sbin" — requires some annoying footwork if you expect you'll need to put larger sections of the paragraph in quotation marks. Most editorial guidelines discourage writers from using quotation marks to mention jargon terms for this reason — especially if the terms will be coming up more than once in a piece.

"/bin vs /sbin" sounds like I'm talking specifically about the ones under /, rather than all of them.

"./bin vs ./sbin" just sounds like I got confused and am talking about something that isn't actually the subject of the parent post.

".../bin vs .../sbin" is pretty good — but "..." here is just doing the same thing "$PREFIX" does but with less guidance as to how it should be interpreted — less ability to Google what it means.

Trust me, I considered every option before settling on writing something as silly as "$PREFIX/bin". "$PREFIX/bin" is weird, but clear. And without an elegant best option, the "weird but clear" option is generally the one you should choose in technical writing. People can't generally call you 20 years later to help parse through a sentence that conflates three different usages of a term, but they can just Google any weird (but well-documented) jargon you've used.

>My pet theory is this is because tanning is a product of a life of leisure,

It's the other way around. The cultural difference between Asia and especially America is that working class and mass culture determine aesthetics in the US (and downstream in Europe). When Jeff Bezos hits the gym and poses in a truck with a cowboy hat and big arms, and Zuckerberg styles himself as a MMA fighter its because that's what reigns supreme in culture. They don't want to be seen as living life's of leisure, but as hard workers and ordinary salt of the earth people.

Paleness still is a sign of leisure and traditional "refinement", it's just that this is not an aspirational value in the West, but it still is to some extent in Asia.

Because it's the same seven sisters legend as found in many other places around the world.

Seven sisters chased into the sky by a hunter, and the seventh sister left the sky to marry the hunter.

The aboriginals were isolated from the rest of the world for tens of thousands of years. That their legend is nearly exactly the same as European legends is incredibly unlikely to be coincidence. More likely the legend of the seven sisters is a story that was first told before humans left Africa. All of the Pleiades legends must stem from that original story.

The interesting part isn't that they have a story about the Pleiades, but that it's the exact same story as everyone else. And they've been telling it for tens of thousands of years before ever encountering the Europeans.
C++ hes weird ABI rules, but if you follow them you can change implementations.
From an systems perspective they are the same thing. Zigbee vs. Thread is just transport. The protocol on top of that is what matters and the sole purpose (from my narrow perspective) of Thread+Matter was that this would be a team effort to allow different vendors to talk to eachother.

And with that in mind IPv6 feels like a decent choice.

If vendors don't respect that foundation then the whole point of Matter+Thread is just gone.
I too am old. I hear you. But just because you could do those things back then doesn't prove your point. Businesses took the large part of the 90s, at the very least, to really get on board with those technologies. And it wasn't though lack of desire - a lot of other factors need to come together to make the web viable in the mainstream (broadband, browser standards, TLS, countless components). None of which happened overnight.

Reading all the comments here, the sentiment over NFTs is clearly reductionist ("just monkey JPGs") and based on a very limited understanding of the fundamental benefits of the technology. Most of the real world benefits are overshadowed by this kind of sentiment and shows a clear lack of knowledge and research from the wider community.

If you truly are technically literate, you'll know the mainstream view of any nascent technology is always very weak and sensationalist (the headline in the OP a good example). If you were well versed in NFTs and DLT technology you'll know there is new ground being broken here. Your last sentence tells me that you are not well informed on the subject. If you were, you would not be saying such things and understand the computer science behind the core concepts.

So yes, whilst the NFT space is largely full of scams and is apparently useless, that doesn't mean there isn't a viable technology at play which has major benefits in multiple industries.
It all depends on what you think about capitalism, which is the social theory that the key determinant of what happens to resources is who owns them

If you are OK with that then living off rent is a natural conclusion

Me, I am not "anti capitalist" (a silly identity many of my comrades have adopted) but I believe capitalism should be an economic theory that society restricts to where it is useful and away from where it is harmful
