This would go a long way in Medical Kiosks, Digital Art and Signage.

The digital art thing is big in hospitals (Source: I was the technology designer for SFGH, UCSF, and the technology implementation manager for El Camino Hospital - and director of OPs for Vizio (TV))

Ive evaluated, purchased and installed systems such as this, and wayfinding in hospitals - paying hundreds of thousands for digital artwork to be looped in elevator lobbies, room screens etc - they, like you said - had rubbish software.

For the lobbies in El Camino Hospital, I had to replace some units with Mac Mini's playing an MP$ on loop via VLC because the digital signage system was so crappy.

So, having this with a piZero would be great.

However - wayfinding would also be elegant with this - so long as when you say "interactive" surely it could display a webapp/app via the PI, and "screen-saver" to your digital art loop when idle...

But - seriously, the digital art/signage/wayfinding market needs a fiesty upstart like you to ruffle their muffins - I dont have any PIs currently else, I'd be using this....

I wonder if I could install it on my shitty android TCL tablet from T-Mobile...?

(Also look at controlling Feit Electric bulbs)

EDIT:

I think the most lucrative option for a device/OS like this would be travel signage at BART, any 'regional transit' -- find the dumbest person at that organization and train them to install and configure and display something in a fool-proof manner...

Look at Sacramento (california) regional transit - they have so many screens with zero usable information...

Have you been in a train in APAC? THey have LCD screens with status maps on the upper walls...

Have you been in a train in the US? THey have pee and poo on the upper walls, and zero map status anyplace.
Why? There are countless examples where SpaceX adapted some simpler consumer product to serve their needs. That's why they were able to compete and drastically reduce price. Another reason was they never tried to get cost plus contracts which were the standard for industry (imagine how that affects your incentives)

This isn't software where we can laugh at Uber building their own messaging service. These are somewhat specialized parts that are made for orgs that have no concern of cost controls. he's absolutely right to question everything as that gives him the edge.

You see something similar with Jobs. From reading his bio, I would say his main skill was ability to sniff out BS. So if he wanted something in a certain way or by a certain time and got push back, he was able to ascert whether it was legitimate or he could just push and raise expectations. And more often than not it worked. The best managers I've had always pushed me and knew when something truly wasn't feasible
> Academics seem to be pretty skeptical of using any sort of flashcarding to learn vocabulary ... the empirical evidence doesn't actually seem to support it

What does this refer to? Generally I've referenced the Improving Students’ Learning review by Dunlosky et. al. [0] to see what is supported by the literature. The two techniques listed there as having 'high' utility -- Practice testing and Distributed practice -- are most easily accessible through usage of SRS-based flashcards.

One thing I've encountered working with OpenBSD is: change the defaults at your peril. The base system is intended to work and be secure as-is. If you start "hardening" it, expect odd breakage here and there and you will get little sympathy or help from the email lists.
I agree, I have the Kill Sticky extension installed on my mobile browser and it works great for these kinds of situations.
Organic farms still use pesticides and herbicides, they're just organic ones, like Nicotine.
Before you abolish an old infra you need to build new ones, however, since US politicians can get away with not building anything, so they opt for abolishing old infra as their credit for the next move, and as a consequence people suffer with lower and lower quality of life.

BTW, I lived in China and Europe for many years and exclusively ride bicycles for a long time, it was not the same experience. If you believe what current US politician is getting you one step closer to that, you are just deluding yourself.

It doesn't seem that people actually learn those things in many cases. I encounter programmers fairly regularly who struggle to grasp CPU vs memory vs I/O trade-offs and have no mastery of tools for measuring them.

This is unfortunate because the tools can often be a cheat code. It's painful to see people fixate on one possible cause without going to fundamentals and making a proper assessment. These people all pass the traditional programming interview filters for algorithms.
Big-o of various data structures is typically trivia not worth remembering but it’s also easy to remember for the most common data structures.

For all the other data structure operations it up. But there’s a lot more to data structures than big-O and implementing it yourself is one way to expose yourself to those details (eg cache locality or other things). Crossing abstraction layers requires an understanding of what’s above and below an abstraction. It’s not trivial to have that knowledge and know how to apply it effectively.

It also is not relegated to RDBMS. It can come up when dealing with as few as 1M elements. For example, look up the Rockstar long loading time bug that applied an n^2 algorithm accidentally to something like a few thousand or hundred thousand elements.

But you seem to be pretty into the ignorance is a virtue mantra so not sure there’s any point in engaging further.

Except there is no real sane plan to actually do something else. If they were, say, replacing street parking with light rail lines, I'd be onboard. This is basically just ignoring the problem and pretending like "alternative transportation methods" will magically spring up.

How is *not requiring* parking to be provided inducing scarcity artificially?
Frankly, the classic algorithms courses at universities aren't great either. The set of "classic" algorithms covered in an intro course is arbitrary and comes down to history more than pedagogy. There are some useful concepts that all programmers should know like dynamic programming or divide-and-conquer, but spending a bunch of time on relatively specialized and narrow algorithms like the simplex algorithm or FFT is not a great way to illustrate them.

The core algorithms sequence ends up feeling more like a grab bag of "historically significant" algorithms rather than a coherently structured introduction to the subject. The set of algorithms taught is not a great practical foundation for solving problems, but also aren't especially effective at teaching how to generalize the ideas and design algorithms for your own problems.

You can use a classic algorithms course as a starting point to learn more, but it's not an obviously great starting point. One grab-bag of algorithms might be better than another, but it isn't fundamentally better.
This is the third or fourth time I see today in HN of someone treating someone's personal project or opinion as "the direction the community is moving".

If every new toy framework is treated like this, it's no wonder people feel overwhelmed by frontend development.

Among the 4 production B2B Rails apps I've been adding features to in the past year, the only one using jQuery was created 13 years ago. None of the others ever used jQuery, and using Hotwire Turbo to replicate SPA functionality is easy nowadays.

One of the Rails apps serves a Flutter mobile client on the front-end, and as much as I appreciate all the lifting Flutter does for me, the sheer amount of code required to support that is enormous and laborious in comparison to writing a few Turbo frame tags in the fullstack Rails app. If not for a few gotchas that the client app needed, that mobile app would have been done with Jumpstart Pro iOS & Android with Turbo Native (great code reuse potential).

Users of Rails apps leveraging Turbo frames or streams don't think those apps feel more shiny and cool and performant than legacy SPA frameworks such as React, and the modern Rails developers spend less time churning out code.

> You mean like uncontrolled immigration

no I don't. probably because I've been an immigrant my entire life. with the difference that I'm OKish off and people calling me an "expat" probably because I haven't been stepping off a boat chased by some s-hole country militia or Frontex.

what I referred to is the issue of how wealth is distributed, how the society isolates itself in a class-system, and people's mobility between these systems.

the fact that the poor are riled up against foreigners is a common pattern among the far-right world-wide and can also be seen as a failure by leftist politicians (who rather talk about pronouns than the struggling lower classes)

If they used GPT it is most likely just for a summary of the blog post as the first few paragraphs seem human written to me. If they did I encourage them to point out that is what they did. To make it clear it isn’t all AI.

Satellite mapping reveals extensive industrial activity at sea
"...We combine satellite imagery, vessel GPS data and deep-learning models to map industrial vessel activities and offshore energy infrastructure across the world’s coastal waters from 2017 to 2021. We find that 72–76% of the world’s industrial fishing vessels are not publicly tracked, with much of that fishing taking place around South Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa. We also find that 21–30% of transport and energy vessel activity is missing from public tracking systems..."
Dear god, not another one.
Interesting that the official headquarters is in Connecticut even though employees are in Rochester.

Every business I can think of that has a “headquarters” separate from their largest employee pool seems to be in decline… GE, Boeing being big obvious examples. It seems like moving the executives away from the day to day work is a sign the business doesn’t care about itself anymore. I’m curious if there are any other examples, or any counter examples to this.
I actually agree with that - and I grew up in a rural area.

The US has been building a lot of low-quality low-density suburban neighborhoods. They are actively hostile to the people living there, as there are both no amenities within a human distance from your home and there is no space for recreation. Life is constantly being strangled by a forced dependency on car travel.

In cities everything is a stone's throw away, and you can get there either walking or by bike. In rural areas there's plenty of space for outdoor hobbies and for children to play. The suburbs are a worst-of-both-worlds scenario.

Alternatively, the S stack: SvelteKit. I don't understand why you would use a pairing of different tools in this space when Svelte/Kit solves all these problems with one framework. This could also be said for NextJS/Nuxt/etc but SvelteKit is particularly well integrated.
The keyword you missed is "retool". Completely rewriting your clients at scale as is always a big risk, it's especially risky when you're rewriting from one to many, and you need a much broader set of skills to boot. This specifically refers to overhauling the technical approach (see: Second System Effect), it doesn't preclude that a large company "develop an application that is actually good", in fact every company I've founded or work in has full native clients.

On a more nuanced point, tradeoff is not strictly cost vs quality, it's also about velocity and consistency. The latter especially can have a huge impact on the perceived quality for common users, so the tradeoff is not as black and white as you want to make it.
What is your proposed alternative for secure, future proof deploy?
This is about arbitrary parking regulations. Not about dense cities.

The idea that we must live between enormously huge parking lots is nonsense. If you like that lifestyle, great, but it’s not reasonable to force it on everyone else.
Ignorant Q: Could one ostensibly replace the ROM? Surely there has to be some Chinese company that can get you a custom ROM built and replace it on the device?

EDIT: Yes, I meant physically de-solder/replace of the ROM - is that a nightmare?

What if you could find the economics of having people ship you their devices and either donating (to schools (NOT UNIVERSITY SLURPS)) or paying for their device to be up-ROM'd or e-cycled?

(My first job as a freshman in Highschool was desoldering ROMs and soldering new ROM chips into the boards of Amigas and Apple ][e's -- I had tons of these new ROMs on a strip and in tubes - but I never had any use for them... I with I had kept them.)

((Also, just to let you know the difficulty level - replacing a ROM chip on an Apple ][e etc was as simple as receiving an instruction set:

"Desolder the red guys. Resolder with these green guys."

That was the extent of my knowledge to ROMs in ][Es

I had no Idea at the time what I was doing.

Very interesting. My two cents: because the stacked bars for php, ruby, perl and py:cpy, it's impossible to compare the other languages in that first chart. All the chart says is that the benchmark is much slower in those 4 languages relative to "all other languages we tested".

It would be nice to see those other languages in a chart that doesn't include the slower four. Alternatively, you could also show those slower four with "broken" columns like this https://peltiertech.com/broken-y-axis-in-excel-chart/
Less reading imho, is a symptom of increasing hours worked (which is also linked to lagging livable pay). The US has been increasing the hours worked. Less leisure time and less disposable income drives a host of negative effects.

Well, at least this part:

> shift to a business unit operating model

Translates to "dividing the company by product, and evaluating each product independently". What's meaningful.

The rest of it is completely bullshit though. But I really liked "balanced execution priorities", that's an entirely antisemantic expression, you either have priorities or you don't.
It's not "set nearly randomly". It's a function of the estimated number of adult occupants, based on the number of bedrooms I believe.

Besides, the argument isn't "let's look at the calculation for required number of spots and tweak it if necessary", it's "let's get rid of parking altogether and pretend like people won't just still drive and park on the street."
I'm using zsh with tmux and it's a bit frustrating to have it appear on every window and every pane. At the same time if it only appears once I might miss it. Does anyone have suggestions on how to make it appear only a handful of times per day?
You know you can block and mute people on Twitter, right? The actual true grifters of the kind you are talking about are pretty rare in terms of a per user basis (though get get lots of distribution), and most of them are very bad at concealing themselves.
LOL. Same here. I was hoping there will be synergies but they seem to be efficiencies lately.

Treating someone with skepticism is a function of judgement of sincerity. Not sure how that is in any way in disagreement with my point. Which is that we should and must exercise judgement of persons' interior properties in court.
You actually don't need any of that stuff, you can just write .js files and run them in node. The node.js standard library is quite extensive.
Guess it depends on your role yeah. I'm familiar with React etc but I only use it when required, it's all so clumsy, constantly changing, and their best new ideas have existed in the ruby/python/php communities for decades.

I still really limit my JS to just improving the client-side UI/UX.
"Let's pay 3x as much for rent [and other things that more expensive with density] to save $300/mo on a car payment" is certainly an interesting life choice.

More seriously though I do think there are benefits to city living if that's a lifestyle you want, but saving money is almost never one of them unless you have a job where you can make a LOT more living in the city, which sort of by definition means you're not going to be working remotely.

I wish they'd be a little less one-size-fits-all.

Nixing parking minimums for businesses in already-walkable, transit-connected downtown cores is overdue, and areas close to that density can easily become new downtown cores when infill is allowed to cover their parking lots.

Nixing parking minimums for downtown apartments, to your point, is a terrible idea (outside the densest areas of NYC at least, where parking minimums are already effectively nil) because most transit systems in the US are designed to bring suburban commuters into the city, so even if said apartment is situated directly above a multi-modal mass transit hub, it might not necessarily connect its residents to much more than a handful of giant parking decks clustered around a freeway.
From what I understood, I think the big difference here is the human factor: Windows and Android are maintained by employees, who have no choice but to work on things even if they don't like doing it. Linux on the other hand is a collective effort of people doing what they want to do on their free time.
Are you thinking that the nine month salary wouldn't be worth it to save $115,000? I think the idea is that SpaceX will use multiple copies of this part.
The author could have provided his original conversation with LLM in his native language for anyone else to verify, so this is not an excuse for using LLM to write crap. The point is that whether the author wrote the text himself or an LLM helped the author write it, the author is ultimately responsible for the content, and the author should only be responsible for his own writings, not LLM outputs.

> But I think tech people recognize this as referring to "OS's that aren't Windows or Mac".

Do they? The metric includes "Unknown" and "Other" not referred to in this, representing another 5% of activity.

However, what the OP seems to be saying is that interpreting anything from the metric and trying to communicate that interpretation with others is pointless. Not even the linked article can decide whether Linux desktop penetration is 4% or 6%, and that's just one person. Good luck when you add a second person with their own feelings.
What's preventing me from going all in to Linux desktop is software only available in windows and HDR, it seems KDE plasma 6 is going to ship HDR this year, so it might be just enough for me to not care about the rest.
Both points you made are valid but neither fixes or even touches on the problem being discussed: there are more cars than parking spots and this causes problems. The economic theory is an interesting, albeit completely parallel discussion. Price is just about who gets to have one.

Effectively you'll still have 150 cars that cannot be parked next to the owners' residence, that get dumped on the street elsewhere probably in the next lower cost neighborhood, and with the additional issues OP mentioned.

Put it another way, if you want to solve the housing crisis and I tell you "owners can set whatever price they want for the house to extract maximum value and nobody who can afford that will be denied the house" am I wrong? But did I solve the problem?
