Right, the mitochondrial dysfunction has known for a while. But is not not the cause, it is the symptom. Many argue the cause is viral persistence, causing a continual immune response causing the body to be dysregulated and mitochondrial dysfunction. Another idea is endothelial damage that simply takes time to be repaired and that sometimes can be made worse by over taxing your body.
It'll be interesting to see if AMD can help unleash what Xilinx was. At some point, leaving FPGAs as cloistered inaccessible technology - even well supported cloistered technology - becomes a risk.

Theres been some incremental improvement with low level Linux support across the past year. Good to seem but so far, actually using FPGAs is still all Vivado & closed systems. I think there's so much possibility left on the table by not supporting openfpga alternatives, not embracing yosys/openpnr/openroad/&al.
Funny how they self select out of something that they are worried about.
If something is 99.9% Certain, then act like it is Certain.

Lot of pedantic STEM people will waffle and be like, "yeah, it isn't 100%, I can't commit", or "I'm not 100% confident".

Then the non-STEM run with it and say it isn't going to happen. "Well, they didn't seem that concerned".

Starlink Direct-to-cell will not have the bandwidth for "indistinguishable phone service" unless you are still using a 2G dumb phone. The bandwidth is 7 Mbps per cell and each cell cover thousands to millions of people. Which means that each phone will have 20-100 kbps, enough for voice and some data. But not enough to even load the Youtube page.
… it … isn't? I too have just tested it (with `man ls`, in Terminal.app), and it scrolls by whole lines.

(Same in iTerm2. In Linux, Terminator can scroll to partial lines, but output is instant, so it doesn't have the effect the OP is looking for.)

Stop. Getting. Infected.

The absolute scale of the US military is mind boggling. We have been overspending on this stuff for half a century. The LCS was a piddling $100 billion compared to the over $1.52 trillion per year spent on military in general.

Saying that we need to prepare MORE is insane. It would be like asking if Anderson Silva has prepared enough to fight a high school wrestler.
For the same reasons that a lot of people associate Pascal with either Borland's older Pascal implementations or a limited, academic Pascal, a lot of people today think of BASIC in terms of the BASIC that they had access to, and the machine that it ran on, which was a hugely fragmented experience - every magazine printing type-in code had its own listing for each platform.

And an older BASIC like BBC BASIC, which was one of the best of its era, still lacks some major conveniences associated with structured programs. It only gained record type support after Richard Russell ported it to modern platforms. The modern dialects are great, but diverge quite a bit from the early ones in that they have become fully structured with OOP support.

What's ultimately driven people over to the current family of languages is that they are making programs that talk mostly to other software, not to I/O. When you add that constraint, you may end up using the language the other software uses for pragmatic reasons. The irony of that is that it really is totally arbitrary.
I think we have learned a lot of people don't care about quality web content, that wasn't clear in the initial stages of the internet.
Would I be right in thinking a tether would be necessary with a ROV for a high bandwidth live video link as ultrasound seems only usable up to 100s of kHz.

I guess the only high bandwidth alternative might be lasers?
They absolutely do not and also introduce a significant amount of overhead with respect to key/certificate management.
I agree with you in a very broad sense, but I also feel that stripping an issue of its complexity results in apathetic or impossible stances. Where do you even start to craft solutions when this is your understanding of the matter?

Yes, “they” might be fighting for absurd reasons but everyone does, to one extent or another. At some point there has to be a concerted effort to minimize casualties and suffering, and that effort usually comes hand in hand with picking a side - as long as your goal is a reduction in harm and violence, that side is often the weakest (in many senses). But pick any side for all I care, if your intentions are holistically sane.

This is inherently a political effort, one that necessitates impartiality in order to sway public opinion, political weight, budgets, etc. And so these weird “holier than thou” moments arise - yes, sometimes for the sole sake of claiming superiority, but more often than not because “impartial” action is necessary to move the issue forward.

Mind you I don’t agree with Wikipedia on this one, given its nature, but still - embrace the hypercomplexity and patterns and nuance will both emerge and you’ll have something to work with, at the risk of maybe realizing that often to play a part in reality is to pick a side, even if it’s somewhere on the spectrum between two insane positions.
I hope AMD sees the light and helps F4FPGA develop a more complete open source toolchain for their FGPAs (https://f4pga.org). With this subsystem and an open source compilation flow, FGPA experiments would be way easier.
The function defines the shape of the kitchen utensil, yes. That's not a counter, those are physical objects. In software, we have far more flexibility as to what "shapes" are available.

Having a common interface for working with things is indeed why the flexibly-typed languages are popular. Everything is an object. You call methods on every object in the same way. You don't need to figure out how to interact with the network card, someone has written a library to make that into objects. You don't need to figure out how to interact with a file system, someone has figured out to make that into objects. Bringing up popularity of programming languages is an argument in favor of "'everything is a file' is a useful abstraction."

Either people will write FUSE plugins or they don't want consistent interfaces is a false dichotomy.

When you are interacting with programs, you use mostly keyboards and mice. Why not create a bespoke hardware interactions for each program so they can behave more like kitchen utensils? Deleting a file is a different action than creating one, so I should have to shake my computer like an Etch-a-Sketch to delete images and rub the trackpad like an eraser to remove text files.
China has done this before, why not assume the previous result is the realistic answer if they try it again?
Credit scores, unlike healthcare plans, are not for consumers, they are for creditors. Consumer loans are the real analogy you are looking for.

The domain of private financial & life info they have direct legal access to is pretty absurd. Many creditors will additionally ensure a background check of their customer prior to finalizing a loan. What "private" data remains sacred at this point? Why do we have regulations like ECOA in the first place? Because of many such abuses.

Apple provides about 10 years on computers and 7 years on devices. WindowsXP provided about 8 years of mainstream support. They offered extended support to business for 13 years for a premium but even that has expired. They will soon stop supporting computers without tpm 2 on windows 11.
I agree with Arthur's answer, but unfortunately it runs afoul of Conway's Law: auteurs have a voice* and are capable of producing software in that style, but large organisations? By necessity, they must produce something qualitatively different, that anyone can slot anything into anywhere, optimised for superficial comprehensibility over elegance.

* sometimes small groups? Doug McIlroy said he was lucky to have managed a software group whose members would sit around in the lunch room and brainstorm (reminiscent of the Little Prince?) not what they could add, but what they could remove.

It's easier than you think... utf-8 guarantees that all bytes of a multi-byte character have the high bit set. 0x3B (semicolon) does not have the high bit set. Therefore 0x3B is guaranteed to be your seperator.

The same logic applies to newline - therefore, you can jump into the middle of the file anywhere and guarantee to be able to synchronize.

I've long given up on meditation timers. I go to a room without any digital technology except for a Casio F91W. I have gotten good at gauging how long I've been concentrating for and if I have aversion to continued sitting I just peek at the watch to know how long it's been.

This is a solved problem that costs $0 and I don't have to worry about receiving personalised ads because I'm into 'mindfulness'.
It sounds like you're unfamiliar with vectorized string processing tasks, so you could surely learn a lot by working on an implementation of the proposed approach. I think it's fine to make it in C++ and then port to Java.

Maybe revolutionary things have to be counterculture because if not they don't get a chance to breathe and sort themselves out before the establishment co-opts them.

There is likely some corner of the internet which is experiencing some of the things we complain about, but neither you, me, or any of us here feel/are invited.

I've been wondering very recently if these social cycles (like fashion, the tech pendulum) are less a cynical play by capitalists and collective amnesia by the young, and more a moral equivalent of molting, where we slough off our old skin and get a chance to grow and be shiny for a bit before everything settles back into normal again. Maybe that's why the other two hominids died out and we remained.
If Cool Retro Term had tab support on MacOS it'd be my daily driver.

Probably the pressurized ballpoints like the Space Pen:

They don't write as nicely as fountain or gel pens, but when you need to write on receipt paper or a waxed carton, they will work.

You can put the Fisher Space Pen refills in any pen that takes a Parker ballpoint refill.
I just started incorporating cold showers (a controlled "cold plunge") into my routine for a variety of "life hack" reasons, so was a bit let down by the content. Maybe it could add a cold shower on cold showers?

I think the video on the linked page sums it up pretty nicely:

Default scrolling is line-by-line, i.e. the whole screen moves up by 16 pixels (or whatever height your font is) and the new line gets printed on the bottom.

Smooth scrolling is when the screen moves up pixel by pixel

It might not be noticeable in a text editor, but it sure looks impressive in a terminal since you can actually read while it scrolls. On whether that's useful or not will probably depend on the actual use-case (and user), but it sure looks impressive

How’s the workload?
Of course there are other parts to the story. But you have the salient facts.

What I'm pretty sure happened is that rental cars were in high demand for quite a while after Covid, and the local office didn't want to lose a car. (One way rental away from a small market, means there's not much of a chance of somebody delivering a car one-way back to that location anytime soon. So that means they have to pay to get a car shipped in from another market.) So they refused to give the car up.

If you want to hear the excuse the local agent originally gave it was that the rental was in my wife's name but the card it was paid for was my MIL's card. It was my wife who went in to get the car at first. But when both my wife and MIL went in to get the car, he still refused to give up the car, and stated that he wouldn't rent them a car.

So you can believe whatever you want about how I'm hiding things in the story. Believe me, if I spent the time to tell the whole story, it wouldn't reflect poorly on us, but only make Hertz look much, much worse.

Is it that hard to believe that a consumer had a bad experience with a rental company? I mean, seriously... have you ever watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles? It's only funny because so many people have experienced it. I'm not the only one in this thread citing a nightmare experience with a car rental.
I think about this a lot - wouldn't it be super easy to just pretend to be offering a job that pays a tiny bit more than most might expect, then steal all the personal data you inevitably hand over for employment reasons?

It seems like a market ripe for exploitation
More than that. My brother has a bolt and is looking at a road trip next week - 3 hour+ charge cycles are required to make the trip. If it could be 3 20 minute charges he would be much happier. (6 10 minute charges would be better). Most of the time he is happy with that car - he rarely goes on trips so far that he needs to stop, and when he does he planned to take the ICE minivan, but this time his wife needs the minivan so he is stuck.

I only know about xilinx specific, but even given the support for runtime updates to the FPGA logic that already exist in the xilinx kernels, there are serious roadblocks to updating only portions of the FPGA array.

The logic must be very carefully implemented to allow over-writing only specific regions of the FPGA.

If you're re-flashing the entire logic array, it's pretty straightforward. If you want to leave some logic in and add an additional funcitonality, this is much more difficult.

This is really a limitaiton of the FPGA logic array implementation, not a linux shortcoming...

CCS, but the car itself is limited to 55kw. Most EVs can charge faster, the bolt is really slow.
yes if your test are using a mock of the db
ex: https://github.com/microsoft/coyote/blob/main/Samples/Accoun...
you can simulate the races.

The problem is your mock need to implement the same isolation level as your real DB and support transaction ...

You could use SQLITE in memory DB to run your test but that would make your test a lot slower I assume.
> Imagine removing the number keys from your phone and calling it progress.

But that's what the iPhone did, didn't it? Before that most phones (even touch-screen ones) had physical number keys, whereas the iPhone demoted the keypad/dialpad off to a secondary screen in the Phone application. For a while the only time I ever used the keypad when navigating an automated menu, but now that Android has "Direct My Call" I don't even use it for that.

I'm glad that there are still phones with number keys for people who like them, but I'm equally glad it's not illegal to make products simpler for those who prefer that.
The analogy holds perfectly. Remember, we are discussing a claim that optical fiber with all required cladding/protection can carry as much power as a copper wire with all insulation having the same external dimension as the fiber cable. It is simply not possible, fiber will always have less power carrying capacity and your claim that fiber power density is 'easy' has no basis in the reality.
Everyone ought to read "A Chemical Hunger"(1) which posits that the relationship between altitude and obesity is real(2), and is mediated by lithium in the drinking water.

(1)https://slimemoldtimemold.com/2021/08/02/a-chemical-hunger-p...

(2)

-Higher altitudes are associated with lower obesity rates in the US and other countries, including Spain and Tibet.
-Colorado, the highest-altitude US state, has the lowest obesity incidence.
-County-level obesity data in the US reveals clear patterns in the Rockies, Sierra Mountains, and Appalachians.
-"Altitude anorexia" causes sudden weight loss in individuals relocating to high-altitude areas.
-Similar weight loss effect is observed in lab rats moved to higher-altitude labs.
-Evidence suggests a relationship between altitude and lower diabetes rates, independent of variables like age and BMI.
-Oxygen and carbon dioxide variations with elevation alone do not explain the altitude-weight relationship.
-Submarines with elevated CO2 levels do not consistently lead to weight gain, refuting atmospheric explanations.
You're right, but higher energy costs has a larger impact on manufacturing and a relatively low impact on services where energy costs make up a smaller percentage of total costs.

The reason tech is struggling right now (imo) is that Covid dragged forward a ton of demand in tech hiring and in late 2022 this pull forward started to reverse as companies faced facing reopening (less digital demand), higher interest rates and inflationary cost increases. Many companies either had plenty of tech talent so paused hiring, others had too much and needed to cost cut so did layoffs. The result is a market full of talented engineers but no one looking to hire.

I think it may also be partly that the AI hype has pulled capital from labour to compute. The largest expense an AI startup has is compute, not tech talent. Previously a newly funded startup would hire a large team of engineers, now they'll use that funding to bring in a few AI researchers and spend the rest on compute.

Not a contradiction, certain areas skew the statistics, but Cheddar isn't really all that popular in, say, Italy, France, Switzerland or Spain which are all known for their own local cheese production.
I didn't say that content should cost $3 to stop spam. My point was clearly that not enough people aren't even willing to pay that. That price was in reference to what people value. If people value fun web content that's not currently being served to them, they should pay something for it. The vast majority of people simply won't, even if they're spending 1/5 their paycheck on Starbucks. If you think I wouldn't pay for HN if I had no other choice, you'd be mistaken.

But if no one is willing to spend hundreds a year for web content that is not dominated by spam, ads, bots, etc., then spam, ads, and bots is what they will get.

… such as?

Trackpad scrolling works fine for me, in everything I can think of. (macOS+Terminal.app => seems fine. macOS+iTerm2 => seems fine. Linux+Terminator => seems fine.)

(Terminator will even scroll to partial lines with the trackpad. It won't do the sort of scrolling described in the OP, though … but that's not "sucky laggy scroll", either.)
Somehow I wonder if there's a 60fps type enhancement here. the smooth scrolling looks jerky.

that said, I like smooth scrolling lots better than the original IBM PC CGA adapter that had blink scrolling.

I think they just turned of video, otherwise they would have gotten snow.
