> Videos for example are the typical culprit in degrading the experience

My dad does this to me all the time. For those that don't know, the videos we receive are 320x240p. Talk about potato... No matter how many times I tell him, he still does it. It's quite deliberate from Apple. For example, I have a video that I received which is 0.1MP (262kb) but an image I received that is 1536x2048 or 3.1MP (548kb). Why are my images double the size of the videos? I find it hard to buy an argument about bandwidth when doubling the video size would make it substantially more visible (though still quite annoying). I can't think of how this is anything but deliberate. Even if it isn't, clearly it's going to be taken that way.
> I can still install it with `adb` but nobody else can anymore.

You don't need adb to sideload applications. If you enable sideloading, you can copy it onto the phone and run it that way.
Thank you.

I have, actually (though not Pipsi). Some others have commented on that and lead me to them.

Part of the "fun" of it was just doing it, I guess, and knowing exactly what went into it. Just a few lines of Bash, really.
By my understanding the answer according to Christian belief is no. Your body is restored to its fully capability when you enter the kingdom of heaven.
Go to your "mozilla/firefox" folder, and locate the file "profile.ini". On linux the path is

~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini

It is a regular text file. And here's a shortcut for you:

$ nano ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini

Once you've opened it, find this line:

StartWithLastProfile=1

- edit 1 to become 0 in stead, then save[0]. You only need to do this once.

Added: After this edit you will be able to choose a profile on each launch (forgot that little detail). Also, Thunderbird works the same way if you want a set of alternative profiles for your email.

[0] To save: [ctrl]+[s] or [ctrl]+[o]. To exit [ctrl]+[x] (can't assume everyone knows nano)
My parents and I painted one in my bedroom. It was pretty cool, for the time. There was a kit that showed you how to trace one out and paint it.

redirecting 404 to the homepage is enough to be banned from the internet. (slightly /s)

also, you used cloudflare. meh.
That's pretty much standard on European high speed trains, and many lines at slower speeds.
Correct, but anyone with experience attempting to release during this timeframe knows that review times between Thanksgiving and the new year are always slower than normal.

Additionally, brand new apps, not new versions of existing apps, always take longer.

I constantly recommend to both my project team and other teams asking for advice to have a submission in to the App Store 4 weeks before you want to release. Otherwise you risk exactly what happened here.
While true, desktops are often difficult to carry around and use while mobile. It also doesn't have the benefits of macOS. I can get Linux desktops to be decent, but Mac feels and looks like a finished Linux desktop OS.

Apple charges big prices for MacBook pro's because they know other corps will foot the bill, they're work equipment like a tractor. The significantly less expensive MacBook air is the choice if this isn't the case.

I still love building PC's but honestly their main use now is either for server work or graphically heavy gaming.
Hey, thanks for the kind words.

To answer your question: an earlier version of the site focused on surfacing AI news, but that space is super competitive and I don't think Emergent Mind did a better job than the other resources out there. I tried selling it instead of just shutting it down, but ultimately decided to keep it. I recently decided to pivot to covering arXiv papers, which is a much better fit than AI news. I think there's an opportunity with it to not only help surface trending papers, but help educate people about them too using AI (the GPT-4 summaries are just a start). A lot of the future work will be focused in that direction, but I'd also love any feedback folks have on what I could add to make it more useful.
Oh, I've been locked in a hospital before; I wouldn't really say that I'm a stranger to addiction. I think the job was the main stressor that caused the addiction. A layoff later and I feel much better. Being chained to that job for healthcare and housing nearly killed me via a few means.
Seems pretty cool, what about user data then? How do you assign a key to a user?
Great suggestion. Have you done so on Upwork for your product, how did it turn out?
It was fun to follow the public TinyLlama loss curves in near real-time, although it showed that it can be frustrating since the loss curves barely moved down even after an extra trillion tokens: https://wandb.ai/lance777/lightning_logs/reports/metric-trai... (note the log-scaled X-axis)

But they did move down and that's what's important.

There should probably be more aggressive learning rate annealing for models trying to be Chinchilla-optimal instead of just cosine-with-warmup like every other model nowadays.

You would think Apple, in the middle of being investigated from all sides for monopoly, would think twice before rejecting Hey for a second time for a stupid reason
it was always mac for laptops, pc for desktop for me. I guess there's something to be said when the vendor owns all the parts, including the OS.
Correct, but there are additional requirements around a warbird that do not exist for an RV-14, for example. That's his point.
Even whether an aircraft should be issued a type certificate is a judgment call. The regulations are not perfectly precise, and there is always going going be a certain amount of back and forth on interpretation and waivers and alternate means of compliance etc.

Even given that a type certificate has been issued, whether or not it is legal to fly depends on the circumstances of the flight. Just as an example, under part 91 (private flying), complying with manufacturer's service bulletins is optional, but under part 135 (charter) or part 121 (airline), it's generally mandatory.

Therefore, is the FAA saying it's safe to fly a plane that doesn't hasn't completed its manufacturer service bulletins? No. They're saying the acceptable level of risk under part 91 is higher.
Ask HN: Stay at Big Tech or leave?
I joined a big tech company as a new grad recently and I'm unhappy.

Although hired as a software engineer, I'm more of an analyst honestly. I rarely write actual code. Most of the day is spent changing few lines in some config file, running some training job and then looking at excessive amounts of data to get a clue of what's going on.

At uni I was a pretty decent coder, but now I feel like my skills are degrading. I really love software engineering. I'm the kind of person who spent hours in their free time coding up their pet projects.

I'm afraid that not only I'm boring myself to death, but also specializing in a very niche area I don't like and thus further digging myself into this hole.

At the same time: compensation is amazing. Really, right now, that's the only thing keeping me here.

I'm afraid that if I leave, I will regret it. Should I just suck it up and appreciate the opportunity?
You teach morals to handle all situations.

You don't have to directly have brokenness, sex, rape, drugs, and murder in kids shows even if those things exist in the real world.
I personally don't think Mars is a great first step but I could be wrong.

Semi automated asteroid capture and mining along with space based fabrication seem like a much more fruitful endeavor at least in the shorter term.
So that it has a connection even if I am outside of my home network
Yeah there is a nice crossover also in religion, where some sects have agreed that theories like the Big Bang are not incompatible with a creator.

But my initial take on Godel’s belief here is that even if he is correct, and the order of the universe demands that there is more to existence than this, why do Humans get the afterlife?

Parameciums don’t have the inherent consciousness or great individual potential, so there is a cutoff where beings would “qualify” for an afterlife to continue developing their potential, as he posits it.

Are lesser apes bound for the afterlife? Are dolphins?

Or are Humans just the first to get here, and we will be supplanted by an even more rationally destined species to be blessed with the afterlife?
How old was the Thinkpad? I used to expect a laptop battery to be borderline useless after 4 years or so, but my 2016 MBP is coming up on 8, and the battery is doing surprisingly okay. It reports 70% capacity, and that feels about right.
> Part of the business plan assumed that people would be using the rocket to launch replacement satellites for constellations, and so it wouldn't be such a big deal if a rocket failed every now and then. This would let them use automotive grade parts in some areas as opposed to aerospace grade and reduce costs.

Lets be real here. The business plan 'assumed' a whole lot of nonsense just so they could claim absurd totally unrealistic growth potential. The story shifted to whatever was 'hip' at the time.

It very much started with 'cube-sats' are the future. And when it was clear this was wrong, they started to make up other stuff.
In the aftermath of the fall of South Vietnam, somewhere between 200,000 and 400,000 refugees died at sea trying to flee the country. Cambodia also fell to communism, where the new regime murdered between 1.5 million and 2 million of its people. Actually winning the Vietnam War could have prevented these outcomes and left Southeast Asia in a much more stable and prosperous position today, similar to South Korea.

Ahh, I did consider PHAsset.fetchAssets but my understanding was that the method will download the file if not present locally - which wouldn't be acceptable for an app, I guess.

Do you know more? The introduction says "Retrieve asset metadata or request full asset content.", but I can't find clarification when it actually accesses full content.
You're right about the strengths of the phone camera, and I also take many more pictures with it. But printing large prints, framing and hanging pictures is absolutely worth doing, much more than printing 4×5s to flip through. I love having them and everyone who comes into my home takes some time to look at them.

To be useful the collectors have to withstand micrometeorites, thermal stress, solar flares. They have to station-keep indefinitely (a tether?). They must be steerable (aim at the appropriate ground targets) and tunable (transmit energy according to weather conditions).

I'd imagine an array of largely independent panels. As they degrade they can be replaced. Not one big solid thing, but a sort of scattering of thousands of individual panels. But that's just my first guess.

But from an Android phones perspective it is the iPhone users that have low quality images and compatibility. Whenever someone sends me an image or video from an iPhone it seems like their phone must be terrible.

These systems could work together if Apple wanted them to. Google / Android isn't the part that is preventing interoperability. So ultimately it really is an iPhone being bad problem. They've marketed the problem well to make it seem like it is the other way around in order to make iPhones more desirable.
Not to mention that this memory is also VRAM. You can have over 100GB of it, in an age where just 80GB of VRAM in a single card costs over $13,000.
> I don't know, that's the regulator's job.

Ok but you should at least have an idea because it's the central premise of your proposal. I'm not asking for you to split hairs between a percent or something but to provide something meaningful from a categorical standpoint.

> Businesses have to deal with new and changing regulations all the time. Once a business starts to worry about being too big and associated regulations, that's their legal team's job.

Sure that's fair though I'm still concerned about decreases in competition here due to this regulation as noted.

> Right, without regulation we're on a path for these megacoprs to start charging us more, especially if if our attempts to regulate them fail. They won't compete fairly out of the kindness of their hearts.

On the consumer side I don't see this as a big threat, it's more of a threat to developers. The vast majority of apps, games, etc. are junk and not worht acquiring for free or paid, and if those prices increase because companies are charging more then the likely scenario is they just die off which is good for the economy and the quality of the app stores.

On the developer side this also has the added benefit of weeding out uncompetitive apps and poor products, and the cost burden is beared by developers instead of the corporations and personally I don't really care that much if, say, Epic gets more or less revenue than Apple because of these dynamics. Neither are lowering their prices so it's not relevant to me.

> The beauty of competition is that if they don't continuously add new products or features, someone else will — Just like Apple/Google once did to the older tech incumbents.

Nothing stops those new products or features today though so I'm not sure what the argument here is. Are you suggesting if Apple and Google open up their APIs then other competitors will... open up their non-existent APIs? If anything these things just further cemement Apple and Google dominance.

> It's not irrelevant in the context that antitrust regulations looks at the number of people impacted, which is very correlated to how much revenue is being generated.

Are you suggesting regulation overall due to company size or regulation within a sector? If it's the former I think there's likely to be some faulty rationele here and if it's the latter it's irrelevant because Nintendo isn't competing in the same sector as Apple or Google.
Here's one of the studies I'm basing it on (this one is most in depth, but also only covers the Czech Republic): https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-010-9696-y

I can drum up a couple more if you're looking for more data (the references in that study also contain a few).

My understanding is that, in addition to the Czech Republic, Canada, Croatia, Denmark, Germany, Finland, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Sweden and the USA have also been studied and have similar results.
I guarantee for every "homeless junkie" in SF or any city, there are dozens if not hundreds of functional and semi-functional substance users. Don't get me wrong, the nature of some drugs, especially heroin/fent, meth, cocaine, and alcohol, mean a significant percentage of users are going to completely fuck up their lives and the lives of those around them due to addiction.

It's weird how with illegal drugs we tend to blame the drug and the user, whereas with alcoholics, nicotine addicts, etc we tend to only blame the user. Does your opinion hold, that we should also not "live and let live" with dysfunctional homeless alcoholics? Believe me, they also make a mess of themselves and the neighborhoods they camp out in.

Anyway. Addiction is a beast. But using intoxicants to escape, augment, and/or enhance reality is a basic part of human (and animal) nature. On HN we all love to talk about incentives guiding behavior. Well when your life has been shit and likely will be shit indefinitely (due to health, social, economic, and other factors), perhaps in spite of any effort you are capable of implementing, the incentive to get some kind of enjoyment out of it anyway, regardless of the cost, is pretty damn high.

I just can't bring myself to care about what Musk is doing to twitter, but I've not been a fan of his since he made those comments and anyone who feels stronger about twitter than those comments doesn't have their priorities straight.
Me. I love being in the terminal. Full-screen nvim with split buffers. If I want a terminal I can spawn it from inside nvim as a new buffer, or use my terminal emulator (kitty)’s native split functionality. I can do git actions without leaving nvim, too.

Yeah I have a BSc in math, MSc in physics. Am familiar with the variety of technologies that exist due to understanding those topics.

It must feel very empowering to construct those sentences. Lindy effect is ticking on all of it and humanity. Despite those accomplishments, we’re not going to break physics; humanity will cease to exist.

We’ve burned up a lot of our own runway via resource consumption on consumer shovelgear/wear. Put the toxic positivity spin on it all you want, there is no moat when we use up Earth diddling our good feels, changing nothing but the speed at which we exhaust ourselves.

Fingers crossed the decline in obligation to preserve religious memes breaks us free from social stagnation and normalization (though the olds are trying to perpetuate through economic memes) and allow us to live organically, devalue things we get bored with, as our brains seem to do organically:

For the everyday needs of the average non-enthusiast consumer, I'd argue that an iPhone is simply better than a DSLR or mirrorless - not just more portable or more convenient, but capable of producing reliably better images.

Sure, the DSLR is the obvious choice if you're a serious photographer, but most people aren't serious photographers. If they buy a DSLR or mirrorless camera, they're going to use the kit lens and leave the mode dial on auto. For people who just want to point and shoot, the iPhone's computational brilliance shines through.

The iPhone isn't so much a camera as a generative algorithm that happens to use image sensor data as a prompt. That's infuriating if you're a photographer who just wants full control over a big sensor, but it's tantamount to magic if you don't know what an f-stop is and have no inclination to learn.

I'd bet that if you gave my mother an iPhone and a DSLR, she'd get consistently better images from the iPhone, even if we gave her a one-day crash course on photography first. Sure, she might fluke the odd decent photo with the DSLR, but 90% of the time, the iPhone's algorithmic guesswork is going to beat better imaging hardware with dumber software.

> Yes, 55 kW is slow

Compared to what?

I just went on chargepoint and looked at all the chargers on a 15 mile radius. Most are 6.6kW, a few are 2.5kW. There was exactly one that was 62kW.
From what I’ve seen the AI gimmick has resulted in almost no new market share for Bing. I downloaded it myself and used it a couple of times but the app was buggy on iOS and I can just use ChatGPT for the generative features. I imagine many others felt the same

From my perspective, it seems like a short-sighted approach to rely on loopholes to obtain bug-for-bug compatibility. I know I wouldn't be comfortable running anything production-grade on Rocky Linux with their current approach.

I can't say exactly, but it degraded remarkably quickly. Maybe someone else can chime in with a different experience, but I doubt it would be anywhere near as good as what I read from MacBook users, especially M-series.

Debian does, it is one of the reasons why I eventually made it my default choice for new long-term installations. Before I used Debian I tested SLS, Slackware, Yggdrasil and Redhat. I have run Caldera, Ubuntu and Mint as well as a bunch of special-purpose distributions (Raspbian, Puppy, LTSP on iOpeners, OpenWRT, etc.) but Debian is where it is at if it has to run for a long time spanning several upgrades.

The Shuttle was the only serious attempt. And even then, they dropped the largest structural part and used solids that can't practically be reused anyway. The DC-X is just a research project, that they would ever develop a reusable launch was basically fantasy.

The same in other countries, very little actual large investments.

The Soviet Shuttle was even less reusable then the US one. And that was actually pretty smart of them.

So I don't think that were that many real failed attempts. There was practically speaking one real attempt.
