This is very true which is why athletes with certain body types will simply never win in certain roles. With that said, I'm pretty confident that a swimmer with the wrong build could, with lots of practice, get within a small margin of a gold medal olympic swimmer that has the right build to win. Without that practice they would be laps behind.
Well image search is broken in general.

Is Boeing an example of 'too big' to fail?

ie one of the reasons it's not out of business due to the multiple failures over the Max is it's just too important to the US economy?
Do you have it undercover / out of the elements some how? Mine is under a concrete stair case and I've not had this problem, even when it's down to ~ 8c and very snowy.
> JITs are unbenchmarkable. No matter what you do, someone says you do it wrong.

Why does that matter?

Presumably if you care about Python performance, you have a real world scenario that you can benchmark. Just make a benchmark that is as representative as possible and check if the JIT helps. If it doesn't help, it surely can be disabled via an option.
I think that you are being misleading when you keep hammering the privacy aspect. Yes, end-to-end encryption means that only the people participating in the conversation can decrypt the messages. But as Annie, the service built by you, is part of the conversation, you as the creator also have, by extension, access to everything people send to the bot. I would otherwise laud your project, if it wasn't for this aspect, which to my eyes seems intentionally misleading.

It was a reasonable design decision to put both types of controls on the prototype.

But if I put chocolate chips in a cookie, claim that the cookie is chocolate-free, and then (when called on it) explain that the chocolate chips were only needed to make it taste good, while working on my cookie recipes - I still have lied.
Don’t Europeans typically work less hours than Americans and do so as a point of pride? I’ve spent over a decade lurking HN, Stack Exchange, later Reddit - and I always seem to see Europeans coming in with the “We work 32 hours at most in my country” or “We have a 35 hour standard here.”

Wouldn’t that necessarily imply a reduction in productivity?
"Which is why I find these debunkings of the 10,000-hour rule to be a complete relief."

Actually, I find the debunking to be the opposite. It basically means, if you aren't already blessed - no amount of practice or training will get you very far anyways.
I so much agree with your comment on memory allocation. Everybody is focusing on JIT, but allocating everything on the heap, with no possibility to pack multiple values contiguously in a struct or array, will still be a problem for performance.
When did Microsoft start funding Python?

Also, such a shame that it takes sooo long for crucial open source to be funded properly. Kudos to Microsoft for doing it, shame on everyone else for not pitching in sooner.

FYI Python was launched 32 years ago, Python 2 was released 24 years ago and Python 3 was released 16 years ago.
And nobody writes short lived commands in those because of startup time.
TikTok accounts cover many of those websites, TikTok hashtags cover many of the others.

I'd just say most people here are near death and can't learn the new way.

The same as some felt lost when the magazines disappeared to websites.

The old modeling (miniature) magazines and computer mags were awesome, but we moved on. Some great things were lost, more was gained.

Hmm? I'm perfectly happy with my hiking performance that is usually about 30% slower than the estimated time for the marked trails i do. I see no reason to improve it because I don't make a living out of hiking.

Not all parts of your life have to be ultracompetitive.
I seem to be an outlier.

Most of my cases where me toppling over some classes or bottles in a way where the liquid ended up directly on the open laptop.

On the other hand in my bag I normally have the Laptop in an additional sleeve, sometimes a double one, so any case where liquid ended up spilling in my backpack it at most lead to a slightly damp laptop due to the sleeves getting wet but nothing which causes water damage.

As a side note if used correctly a simple plastic bag (like a thing plastic shopping bag) as an additional sleeve around you laptop sleeve can be a trivial cheap way to get a surprising amount of waterproofing a laptop in a backpack. I don't do this on a daily basis but when traveling or similar I always hope to not forget to do it.
While bears a significant resemblance, Ertl and Gregg's approach is not automatic and every additional architecture requires a significant understanding of the target architecture---including an ability to ensure that fully relocable code can be generated and extracted. In comparison, the copy-and-patch approach can be thought as a simple dynamic linker, and objects generated by unmodified C compilers are far more predictable and need much less architecture-specific information for linking.
Ah...because HN famously never has any interest in tech litigation and definitely won't have anything to say if a court finds in Boeing's failure in several years time!

The parallels are fairly obvious: AoA sensors malfunctioned, the situation was recoverable but the pilots were confused by conflicting and absent cockpit feedback and lack of relevant training, the OEM initially placed the blame entirely on the pilot but the problem was resolved with a tech remedy. Plus a whole lot of scope for speculation about Airbus regulatory capture of EASA and whether a first incident should have lead to grounding etc. Sure, with AF447 the issue was sensors having a (known) proneness to systematic failure rather than lack of redundancy and the plane plummeted because a stabilisation system disengaged at the worst possible time. They're obviously also not exactly the same, and the Qantas Flight 72 (different software subsystem input conflict automatically pitches nose down) near miss was a closer analogue, but they're all related to critical software handling edge cases and how guidance and UX might have mitigated issues. But as I said, you won't get much of a picture of the aviation industry from HN.
I'd rather prefer to see Stride win, GDExtensions leave room for improvement and the sentiment within Godot community which perceives C# as second class citizen to be avoided in favour of much inferior (first and foremost slower!) GDScript does not help.
Not really - antenna is tuned to the maximum allowed emission power per local regulations (e.g. big differences between EU, US and JPN regulations).
Certification tests do not include any human handling, since it's really unpredictable and varies.
Therefore, tests are just the fob with a (per specifications) positioned Rx antenna (highly controlled environment).

BTW similar effect is observed with the fob being next to the bottle of water.
There are peer reviewed studies on these topics, that my RF engineer shared with me when I asked him way back about it, but are heavy on the RF/antenna theory, beyond my understanding.
Google is currently facing an antitrust suit where their payment to Firefox is a crucial part of the evidence against them. And it's over their search engine, which is far more important to them than Chrome.

They pay Firefox as they're buying a valuable product. Which is why they also pay Safari.
I'm sorry, but this doesn't ping anyone else's Bullshit Detector?!
The title is bad, this only affects Firefox mobile that AFAIK has a really low amount of users (BTW, I am one of them).

Not saying that they shouldn't have detected this (i.e.: where is the automated testing for those things?), but I don't think this is Google screwing up Firefox on purpose.

And if Google really wanted to screw up Firefox, they would probably do a better job than User-Agent sniffing. Firefox already has an internal list where it applies fixes for websites (e.g.: setting a custom User-Agent), and the bug report actually comes from it. You can see it by going to `about:compat` page in Firefox.
FWIW, liquid (pin-shortage) detection on the USB-port is a standard feature of all Smartphones with IPxx water-ingress certification.

It prevents the device from applying/draining power from any pin in such a state, mainly to reduce corrosion of the contacts and increase longevity.

(Without such a mechanism, an IPxx device may be unable to charge within a few weeks as the contacts of the connector can deteriorate quite fast)

As to why Apple ported the daemon from iOS to macOS....well, for sure a good indicator to reduce warranty repair-costs...
Eh, as I've learned, energy is limited. You can only do so much on one day.

If you can improve something you've been working on all day very very mildly where it costs very little energy, it's fine. Switching to the next big thing costs a lot of energy due to context switching and having to learn a new mini-domain.

It takes time, especially for someone like myself with ADHD, to adapt to a new context.

What I mostly want to get accross is that it's unnecessary to view this behavior as procrastination (negative) and not just natural, energy-efficient and expected.
I am thinking of the more basic air/air units rather than this air/water.

One well placed air/air can reduce the need for direct electricity heating a lot, even though some might be needed to assist in a bedroom or so.

My parents installed a air/air unit in the middle of the house (180kvm) for $2.5k this summer and it keeps the whole house heated except one bedroom that needs some assistance from a radiator.
Neon is a very confusing name, and honestly needs to be changed to something that can be distinct in the marketplace.
The copy-and-patch approach was explicitly chosen in order to minimize additional impacts on non-JIT-specific code base.
The phrase "pissing in the wind" springs to mind.
What would you use instead of Python?
Yeah, I’m pretty sure that was the case. There was always a redirect to the job posting which had a different identifier in the end URL. I didn’t expect to have an effect on their analytics; it was just gravy that I seemed to.
Make it impossible to use a wrong bolt, and train the assembly workers.
It absolutely is relevant to the "python is slow reee" nonsense tho, which is the subject. Python-the-language being slow is not relevant for a lot of the users, because even if they don't know they use Python mostly as a convenient interface to huge piles of native code which does the actual work.

And as noted upthread that's a significant part of the uptake of Python in scientific fields, and why pypy despite the heroic work that's gone into it is often a non-entity.
Sure. As long as the poor pay less, that still seems good.
Thanks for the liquid antenna pointer, I had no idea this was actually tried! Apparently not only the navy thought about this, but there are idea floating around about using liquid metal for variable length antennas.

Your work has raised the level of projects solo and very small dev teams can build.

I'd rather set a date to die. How about you?
If I could, I would like to be able to basically schedule a day to go to a clinic with my loved ones and die. Not just because I would be terminally ill or anything. Just because I want, I already lived enough and so I feel ready to go on.

Early Netflix was also not centralized, as they served pre-existing content. Streaming-service exclusives is what ruined this - but as it's an effective revenue generator (it is the only reason anyone would have 5 different streaming subscriptions), that part is unlikely to go away...

But right now, I'd say distributors and national license agreements are the biggest issue. Having to VPN around to find content is a pain, and because each country has its own version of content, which subtitles are available also differ - for example, Danish Netflix generally only has Nordic languages for subtitles, and does not have English subtitles. And then all you get is some low streaming quality.

This is the kind of thing that powers the whole "piracy has better UX" argument - having to VPN around, not have the right languages, and getting a poor quality vs. the effort to download a version with whatever subtitles you want.

Disney+ is so far the only service I've seen where this is largely a non-issue - but I also want to see stuff not owned by Disney.

Oh how come?
Does Ertl and Gregg's approach have any "upsides" over copy-and-patch? Or is it a case of just missing those one or two insights (or technologies) that make the whole thing a lot simpler to implement?
Yeap this condense re-freezing is what's got me. And I think it's also blown in snow, we've had bad drifts too.

I have quite large hands and the iPhone 13 Mini is kind of the upper limit of what I call comfortable to use with one hand. The perfect phone for me is roughly the size of the iPhone 4, or like the BB Passport where the designers fully committed to the two-handed use case and made that work well.

With Apple's Vision Pro and its controls based on eye movement and finger gestures in mind I think this might become a thing on larger sized phones as well. For example a dedicated button at the bottom of the screen that will just click wherever I look. At least I'd prefer that over having to do finger gymnastics on a 6 inch screen.
The Lex Luthor Tragedy
You can achieve RPO=0 with Postgres using synchronous logical replication. You would need to replicate to 2+ standbys because if there is only one standby and it goes down then the primary will stuck. During the failover you would need to have Patroni or comparable tool, but I don’t know what’s the RTO.

But once you outgrow the primary/standbys severs storage or compute capacity you would need to scale to larger machines that can incur downtimes. With distributed Postgres such as YugabyteDB this is not gonna happen because you can scale horizontally
> Why does it matter?

Because you need to have an idea of how many machines you need. And you need an idea of whether 'it will take as long as it takes' or if there's an issue in your code.

Sometimes Java decides to JIT using aes instructions. Sometimes it doesn't. Even if you run the same benchmark suite twice in a row it just does its own thing and gives wildly different results.

My learning was that one shouldn't depend on JIT performance and prefer using JNI libraries if you want consistency. Hence my comment being negative on JIT.
It does seem unlikely, but playing with the example UA in curl (as noted in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38925015) seems to show it's the combination of "Android" and "Firefox" that causes this behaviour. I wonder if any other mobile browsers are broken?
Apple Vision Pro costs same as Apple I at launch
I just noticed this and I'm not sure I've seen it mentioned anywhere else. The launch price of Apple I in 1976 was $666.66, adjusted for inflation that is almost exactly the launch price of the Apple Vision Pro.
That's about the same size as my house... I also have a air-to-air heater but don't even use it because the central heating is more than enough. But interesting to know it could actually manage almost the whole house if I need it!

> Heat pumps are unique in that they are a tool for fighting climate change, where we have the technology today.

No. They are not unique at all. We have electric cars, wind turbines, solar panels, hydroelectric, nuclear, recovery of methane from waste, "smart grid" technology and many many other things today. And not just "the technology", in some theoretical sense, we have all of the above actually working now.

There's also things like more efficient light bulbs and electronics that use less power when not in use that are now nearly 100% of the market. You can't buy incandescent light bulbs or TVs that use several watts of power in standby mode any more.

> Wouldn't be suprised if music download sales are now less than physical CD or vinyl sales.

The music industry did that to themselves though. They went for digital because they thought they could re-sell the same content at 400% mark-up to their previous customers, but in turn they let the genie out of the bag in terms of reproducibility without loss. That's the main reason you see all these 'remastered' releases: to be able to squeeze the lemon a bit more.

If they had just stuck to vinyl and cassettes they could have milked that cow for decades to come (but not at the quality level of what they music industry puts out at the moment).
Except there's no indication those more powerful Mistral models will also be FOSS.
We know US pilots have been warning about the same issues that led to the deathly crashes later but were ignored. The thing is, one part of US commercial aviation being so safe is a lot of pilots responsible for the jet airliners are ex-military. Someone mentioned Southwest Airlines Flight 1380, yup, captain Tammie Jo Shults was one of the first Navy female fighter pilots. Miracle on the Hudson? Sully Sullenberger was an Air Force captain and training officer. Civilian training, no matter how good, is just no replacement for military training and experience.

I can't find specific numbers but estimates say about one in three has a military background. That's an awful lot.

I find your interpretation of his behaviour interesting. Couldn't it be that he was simply being shy and thus more comfortable speaking to a man (and looking him in the eyes rather than the woman)? I could imagine that being common esp. among tech nerds.

What's more likely to go down. OpenDNS or YouTube.

curl -4si0A "" https://www.youtube.com|sed -n '/ip=/{s/.*ip=//;s/\.*//p;};'|uniq

What's more likely to go down. OpenDNS or Cloudflare.

This will work with any Cloudflare IP address and it does not even require TLS.

printf 'GET /cdn-cgi/trace HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: cloudflare.com |nc -vvn 104.18.25.13 80 |sed -n /ip=/p

To get list of Cloudflare IPs

curl -4si0A "" https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/ips

There are many, many websites that print the client IP address in a webpage or in a HTTP head. Not necessarily "What is my IP" websites. No need to rely on just one source.

Websites that use Cloudlfare to block certain requests are another option. For example, StackOverflow. Just send HTTP request without User-Agent header.

curl -si40A "" http://stackoverflow.com|sed -n '/cf-footer-ip">/{s/.*">//;s/<.*//p;}'

The success of "What is my IP" websites is quite surprising given that one's IP address is displayed by hundreds of thousands of other websites.

Some factors you haven't considered:

1) heat pumps make much more sense when you don't burn things to power them. Solar PV, wind, hydro etc powering heat pumps mean you turn energy that is not heat into heat
2) there's no physical reason that you can't run a heat pump in reverse to provide cooling when necessary
3) I need to heat my house along with myself! In the UK there has been a "heat the person, not the home" movement in response to high heating gas prices. Result: a plague of damp and mouldy homes
unlikely

it mainly means even more rightfully warranty claims which have nothing to do with water damage being rejected as water damage

apple repair is already somewhat notorious for this wrongful rejections as the "water intrusion" sensors in their laptops are so sensitive that it's pretty common for them to trigger without there being anything anywhere close to water damage (like you had you window open in the neighbor room on a rainy day; not joking here)

worse if they trigger not only do they reject warranty they do also (often? always?) reject doing repairs at all even if you pay for (but then apple anyway mostly only replaces major parts making many "small easy" repairs unreasonable expensive).
