Just get a Zigbee dongle for a Pi and pair them if you want a hub.

Admittedly I do not use Tuya, I'm only going off the parent comment about it being Zigbee but Zigbees ad-hoc mesh hasn't failed me.

No, DevOps/SRE salaries are considered COGS (cost of goods and services) so they’re accounted for the same as a cloud hosting bill–i.e. _not_ a capital investment
All they had to do was say: "You're being laid off. It's not due to your performance and it is due to economic conditions affecting cloudflare. We're sorry, here's how your benefits etc. will work out." That's it.

They don't need to hug her or be touchy feely. Just be PROFESSIONAL. Tech companies instead try this creepy middle ground (uncanny valley) of quasi-niceness instead of giving it to her straight. Now it's blown up in their face.

Of course they all inherited this design from Unix.

As far as Microsoft is concerned, Windows and MSDOS inherited this design from XENIX, which was Microsoft's clone of V7 UNIX. That XENIX was later sold to the Santa Cruz Operation, then later again SCO XENIX was renamed to SCO UNIX.

It's fascinating to wonder how different the computing world would be today if Microsoft had used their XENIX as the underlying base for Windows, instead of the way they did do it.

Linux would probably have never got off the ground, and remained a curiosity like the MINIX it was based upon initially. And Microsoft would completely own the UNIX world. Thank God they didn't.
The point here is that if you use someone else’s dns, they can redirect any domain to their server and sign the cert too since they also control the traffic.
Takeaway seems to be if you receive an invite from a rando HR person, decline that meeting.

Edit: Also PR speak is one of the most unbecoming things I've heard in my life. I know there's HR people here in this thread, so to them: Try to at least act like your human.
I am really excited about this one. I have used the Turris Omnia in different settings, and can absolutely recommend it for people that want a great supported Open Source Hardware and OpenWRT router. This one seems to be an alternative to the Turris Omnia.

It's so close to being great.
A very much needed feature. Had a nightmare scenario in my previous startup where Google Cloud just killed all our servers and yanked out access. We got back access in an hour or so, but we had to recreate all the servers. At that point we were taking Postgres base backups (to Google Cloud Storage) daily at 2:30 AM. The incident happened at around 15:00 so we had to replay the WAL for the period of about 12.5 hours. That was the slowest part and it took about 6-7 hours to get the DB back up. After that incident we started taking base backups every 6 hours.
No, but you could imagine a situation where a feature added to a database makes people more likely to use that database, even in places where maybe a "lighter weight" database (e.g. SQLite) would've been good enough, therefore increasing electricity usage overall.
65W TDP for CPU + GPU in power-constrained environments, or when you want to have less battery storage requirements for renewables/backup power, is quite the boon.

I had a 5700G (I think) last year and the system would go up to 150W max. I could survive about 2-3h of no electricity with my small inverter battery setup if I kept usage minimal (no work, no gaming). Handy performance wise for a mostly work machine with some indie gaming on the side, but these 8000 series are under half that wattage.

Admittedly this isn't the most common need/concern, but it's good to know options are getting better all the time.

BBEdit was on the Macs I used in school back in the 1990s; the keybindings haven't changed since.

It carries forward as an institution in the Mac world, like vi or emacs, with many users using it primarily because it's what they already know.

Also, a limited version of it (what I first used!) was available for free for many years. Back when free GUI editors were rare, particularly on the Mac. Shareware-style distribution advantage there.

Hopefully everyone converges on NACS and the weird charger issues go away. It would be a pain to have to go to specific gas stations for different car models if they had different nozzle sizes for different models for instance.

That's what we need to assume: companies usually are a detriment to society. I am more and more starting to see life as "you harm the world when you make the money; you benefit the world when you spend it". Hard to see opposite examples. They seem to be more like exceptions than happen when things didn't go according to plan for the companies.

Article says that the reason was huge mainly costs which I don’t understand. I thought EVs should have fundamentally much lower maintenance costs given dramatically reduced moving parts. Teslas need far less often oil changes and other services. Also, Tesla should theoretically lasts for million miles while gas vehicles rarely go beyond 2k. So, average TOC per mile should be very small for EVs. Where does math go wrong?

I'm really impressed that you were able to create this in Godot. Looks like it's all GDScript too. Nice

You even tucked away a pong game in there.

This is really cool, Alex: the ability to run arbitrary jobs on GitHub actions that you've wrapped into a convenient API that (I guess) automatically runs on the 3000 free-minutes that every GH account gets on default Ubuntu-runner actions every month.

Super cool, I love this idea!

Less general than you, but I also had a notion to do kewl shit on GH actions, and I figured out how to turn it into a "personal ephemeral VPN-like" using BrowserBox.

Basically, you:

1. fork/generate the BrowserBox project into your own account

2. enable Actions and issues on the fork, and

3. open a new issue from the "Make VPN" issue template which triggers the action to create your remote browser and gives you a login link.

And voila! In a few minutes you get an up and running remote browser/private VPN that runs for 15 minutes or so (conservation, but you can tweak the value in the actions yaml!),

Even cooler, the action job will post comments guiding you through any setup steps you need, and then post the login link for your BrowserBox instance into the comments section of the issue you opened! Here's the action yaml that I use to do this^0

One hassle: I have still not avoided is the necessity of using ngrok for this. Sure, you can get around it using a tor hidden service which we also support, but that requires the user connecting via a tor browser.

Ngrok is required to create the tunnel from the BrowserBox running inside the GH Actions Runner, to the outside world.*

Seems like a lot of steps, right? So I added a "conversational" set of instructions auto posted by the runner as issue comments to guide you through it.

Check it out la! :)

https://github.com/BrowserBox/BrowserBox?tab=readme-ov-file#...

* Technically, this is probably possible by using mkcert on the IP address of the runner, and posting the rootCA.pem as an attachment to an issue comment. You then need to add it to your trust store and you're good to go, but ngrok is the easier way: sign up to ngrok, get your API key, add it to the Repository Secrets in settings and hit the "Make VPN" issue.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Being given a 3-month ramp up starting in August _then_ being tasked with accounts to manage in the last month and a half of a calendar year is one of the worst places to be in. The only deals getting closed are those with accounts set for a renewal that won't be questioned. That time period can not be reasonably used for performance metrics of a new hire. It's utterly irresponsible.

/me -> former Red Hat Solution Architect that was given 6 months to go from hired to field ready in assisting two account managers. My RH and technical knowledge was fine, but sales is a completely different beast. I was lucky with my timeline as it gave me a lot of time to breathe, shadow my mentor, and get the two required certs. If it was three instead I would have been in over my head by the end of those 90 days. Every day was effectively being sprayed by a fire hose of information.

And she honestly may have had absolutely horrible luck. I've worked with great accounts, terrible accounts, and then some *poof* accounts. I had more deals than I would have liked get suspended right as ink was about to meet paper due to internal events at the customer.

That's not true at all. Countries are created lots of different ways: merging other countries, splitting them, weird situations like Israel etc.
Correct me if I'm wrong but usually when you do normal token by token inference in a transformer you store calculations made in the previous step in a KV cache so you can reuse it instead of calculating it all over again.

But here since the previous few tokens were produced by another model, the current model has never seen them and as such, by definition, doesn't have those calculations stored, but it still needs them to properly calculate attention for the new token.

Noble jobs are rare. Doing any job with honor is absolutely possible.

I found the exchange very much "outsourced". The not manager were trying to convey the message. They have no skin except delivering the message in their best manor. They likely were given a script. They didn't make the decisions and were hired to be the buffer for emotions that would naturally develop.

I'm thinking the best way is to quick rip the bandaid. "Your position has been eliminated. Your severance is four months. Your check will be direct deposited today"
I think what the parent comment is implying is that at Google a lot of work has been put into making network calls feel as close to local function calls as possible, to the point that it’s possible to write synchronous code around those calls. There are a ton of caveats to this, but Google is probably one of the best in the world at doing this. There is some truly crazy stuff going on to make RPC latency so low.
I was commenting on their decision not to include the pins, not on the need to solder them. Almost every single dev board or sensor module you purchase today comes with pins that you're expected to solder yourself.

I'm just surprised that for $80 they couldn't be hosed to include them in the box. If anything it's an admission that they know this will end up in most people's drawers.

I cannot believe this showed up on HN front page. I was thinking about anarchy and secession on the way home, and remembered Hutt River, then bam, there it was.

Hutt River has been a media curiosity for decades in Australia, Prince Leonard would get trotted out every couple of years on a slow news week. Sad to learn of his passing.
I have no special insider knowledge. I reckoned it could be turn-around time coupled with needs.

A quick google suggests that in optimal conditions (all parts available), it would take minimum of 2 months to assemble a large airliner plane. 6 months is suggested as a common time frame. As far as needs go, a plant would need suppliers for all pieces (over 350k by one count for one type of airbus). And you'd need a place where you can assemble the plane, with a sufficiently large runway attached. Possibly in an area where testflights would be acceptable.

All in all: perhaps current suppliers are at or close to their limits, and a new facility would need a completely new supply chain. If not, I'd imagine that if the bottleneck is exclusively with the builder, a solution could be found.
We go straight back to the arguments of last decade's scraping legalities.

Think of my intuition as an all you can eat buffet. In spirit, you can only eat so much as one person and you may bring home some scraps of food you already touched. In theory (if we ignore fine print), you can very much eat out half the buffet, and then take the other half to go. But this latter "approach" breaks down the model of a buffet. Tragedy of the commons. Everyone is a glutton, the buffet can't keep up with making food, business shuts down, no more food for anyone.

The internet here is a buffet. Just because you have access to terabytes, petabytes or more of information without paying doesn't mean you can download all those terabytes of info. Everyone starts doing that and the model of the commons that are ad-supported servers breaks down. Sites start to close up behind more anti-copy protection or literal paywalls to make things not-so-freely accessible. And that ends the free internet as we know it. We are indeed starting to see pieces of this happen in real time.

>To me, the only issue is if the model is reproducing text verbatim en masse.

That's the other issue as well that was discovered with that exploit. You can reguritate the source with enough prompting. This seems to imply that some server out there is in fact just storing hoards of source material on itself. If that server is commercialized and has TBs of copyright material, that seems to go past the fair use argument of "limited use".
In another article at https://www.bbc.co.uk/future/article/20230302-the-giant-arcs...

“According to Lopez's article, it is extremely unlikely (a probability of just 0.0003 per cent) that such a large structurei could have arisen by chance.”

The particles to make up the structure had to come from somewhere, and the best models of gravitational movement would say that such a structure would have taken too long to form. The arc is 1/15th the radius of the known universe.

Such a structure isn’t ruled out by the cosmological constant. It’s highly unlikely.

The distinction here is “unlikely to form anywhere” versus “unlikely for us to be situated in a position we could see such an unusual formation”.
AFAIK physicists use it very heavily, but I barely know any mathematicians use it. To me this is a great tool for people who use Math heavily as a tool but not study Math itself.

I use it for symbolic calculation, solve differential equations, and many complicated integrals, and its visualizaion build upon those with easy parametrize support is very nice. Starting from my ungrad sophomore year as physics major, we have courses require us to finish some homeworks with Mathematica.

I can hardly find any other tool to replace mathematica in terms of symbolic calculation and doing complicated integrals (there is a joke by calling mathematica "large-scale integral table")

Wasn't a significant part of Boeing's decision to "recycle" the 737 time-to-market? Sure, they saved a bunch of money not designing a new plane, but they were also under heavy threat from the A320neo and needed to get something out there relatively quickly.
Prince understood the Internet like a techie. Along with David Bowie these guys were both ten years ahead of their time in how they used the net.

Now he did say the Internet was dead in 2010. But I think it was because he felt the innovation had slowed or stopped. Yet that exact time was when a lot of companies that are giants today were founded.

Interesting. I am using an obamacare plan (in Kansas). It's in no way an amazing plan, but I only pay single digit (or was it $10, idr) premiums per month, and my deductible is $1200. I've been pretty pleased with obamacare for the three years I've had a plan with it.
It sounds like once you get the zen of Mathematica, it’s a truly exceptional tool to work with.

It's almost as if the coming-together-to-complete-a-mission that is a business has a raison d'etre other than profit (and, particularly, returning profit to investors), or something.
This is clearly what brainless managers would want... In reality if you're hoping to create something innovative and different as a team, guess what: you will need to have emotions, likes and dislikes, reach into your intuition.
So the status quo is everyone loses.

In a week, from start to production, I migrated an AWS RDS database to Cloudflare D1 behind an OpenAPI REST interface over HTTPS using itty-router-openapi [1]. This will save me at least $250 pa, plus I no longer need worry about certificates and other server admin, which really adds up.

During the process I never saw an IP address or had to deal with networking, except when connecting to RDS. The attack surface I need to look at is minimal. The only blocker was a wasted day when itty-router pushed an backwards-incompatible change, but otherwise it was very smooth.

I can now implement a new service in about half an hour and have it tested and in production within a few hours.

This really feels like progress.
