Yeah the jokes tend to be about how little concern there is for quality control or things breaking. I'm a fan of "move fast and break things" for getting things started and new projects but I'm not sure why that mentality continues into mature products. I think a lot of software dev teams would benefit from referencing the TRL system[0]. I did work as an engineer in a aerospace startup and you definitely move fast and hack a lot at low TRL but you treat mid TRL very differently. Helps to keep scope and pull away from these 26 "2 week sprint" nonesense. Doesn't make sense for mature products, you're just going to break things that already work. Now I will add though that it isn't uncommon for "traditional" engineers to also move too slowly. I think there's a balance in there. Don't be Boeing but don't be a startup either if you're Google.

I imagine it'll be the same performance whether they stole it or paid 10 billion dollars from all consenting parties. Is there some singular source of information that is so important to scape for the sake of humanity that is unwilling to license?
Give Orbstack a shot. VM installation is a total breeze, and its x86_64 Linux performance has been awesome for me.
nope. total BS. you know something about denatured alcohol. It cant be consumed so its fine for any use. like COVID brought hand sanitizers everywhere and it caused no problems.
> Certain legacy providers leverage their on-premises software monopolies to create cloud monopolies, using restrictive licensing practices that lock in customers and warp competition.

This is fine issue of its own. But the way it is laced up here muddies the waters around this actual news.

Google was doing the wrong thing and is changing that while not really taking responsibility for doing the wrong thing.

But to make that less obvious, this other concern is brought into the story creating this high ground on a separate topic.

The strategic reframing of corporate communications is tiring.
Surely you’re joking Mr Feynman was such an influential book for me! It was so readable and I believe it helped alot of people become interested in science, which was usually portrayed as a very boring topic

Nobody actually makes many (or any) enterprise sales in Q4, also in the video it’s made clear that the whole departments getting a culling. Which makes it a really botched layoff.
Comments like these operate from a premise that the UK/US are some kind of global Empire that is picking and choosing where it gets involved. In some ways, that's actually true. But not true enough, unfortunately in my opinion, for your comment to accurately describe the decision making process going on within UK/US leadership circles.

I genuinely wish it were so that the US were powerful enough such that some junior staffer in the State Department could snap his or her fingers and end the conflict in Gaza.

Imagine jupyter notebooks with a nice lispish language and the most complete standard library ever developed. Haven’t used it for almost 15 years, it was great back then, nowadays when I need something more than a simple calculator I go to wolframalpha - it’s basically Mathematica, but with one line of input instead of a notebook.

Getting replacement parts from Tesla has been consistently reported as time consuming. Even if the repair is the same cost, there's more loss of use if you can't get parts in a timely fashion.

> EVERYTHING MUST FAIL NORMAL

Yes, this, you get it.

I can't believe how many people I talk to are happy to install permanent things in their home that have a strong dependency on (a) the internet being up, (b) the company still existing, (c) the app still being supported.

Things installed in a house have a lifetime measured in decades. IoT companies and apps have lifetimes measured in months. This is not compatible.
I was about to sit and gripe that the only shortcoming for me in BBedit compared to vscode is built in ssh combined with python venv… but once I started to type that I realized BBedit almost certainly had a solution there too, I just haven’t bothered to look! It’s great software.
Maybe the EU should fine them like a billion dollars a month until it becomes opt-in.
Textmate for me.
I've tried BBEdit and SlickEdit too but I couldn't really get into either, shame because I really like the idea of supporting smaller, independent vendors.
Funny thing, for years I wanted to have UltraEdit for Mac but when they finally delivered it I did not like it (much.)
Gigapress mono frames don’t like damage. Even light damage. The whole car is totaled when a comparable ICE build process can be repaired for modest costs. More of a Tesla problem than an ev problem.

No, it's fundamentally impossible. He wants to be able to control his lights from his phone, and that's impossible if the lights have no power. The only way for his lights to have power at all times is for the light switch to be on, but I don't want that when I'm sleeping. Therefore, the switch must be on but the light off, so to turn the light on, I need an app.

We've known that urine's color comes from the bile salts (biliverdin, bilirubin) for years and years.

In the tropics, particularly, urine color is used as a general-purpose indicator to how dehydrated you are. The more dehydrated, the darker the urine. In a cargo boat I once travelled in, there was a color-chart in every toilet to teach the crew about dehydration, and the necessity to drink more water if the urine was too dark.

The brown color of shit also comes from the same bile-salts. When people have a bile-duct blockage that lasts long enough their shit is described as 'putty-like' (that very pale gray-beige color)

The article sounds like it was written by a journo who's a bit light-on with scientific knowledge.
OK - new claim:

There is a really easy way to test if an entity that claims to be an independent state/principality is real or not: Are they allowed to kill people to enforce compliance?

One of the biggest functions of the state is to try to have a monopoly on violence and to use up to lethal force to enforce its will within its borders (or if are the US, even outside its borders).

If they can do that they are a state. If not, they are a pretender

"Agile Hardware Development" is not a thing for a reason
In that case you are feeding the LLM and that changes the problem space signifigantly towards how/if an LLM can accept copyright material. Pretty much what Youtube deals with today,

In that case there would be some separate DB used to identify copyright material that it cannot use when generating art. Hopefully with drastic sanctions if it arises that it is in the LLM.

Alternatively, we can go back to literal Youtube and rely on DMCA yet again. I don't think anyone desires that.
y'all vastly underestimate how much it costs to run a CDN as large as that at scale.

bandwidth from cogent at whatever colo you can cross connect to them is wildly cheaper than "i need bandwith to everywhere" bandwidth.
I think a Nordic broadcaster used "cascaded git" as a CDN. They pushed the content to a central repo, and as a hook, it pushed to four other repos.

The repos had the same hook and it just fanned out, unattended. Pretty neat, if you ask me.

I don't really understand the hole you mentioned here. If you take out a loan against the increased value of an asset without selling, then how do you "get the profits"? Don't you still owe that loan back?
Jetson Nano is a lot more expensive. But at the same price point as Coral you can buy Orange Pi 5 with 4 gigs of ram, 6 tops NPU(not supported as good as Coral though, but is generally more open and has support of much more frameworks) and have a full-blown OS there. SBC is $66, and camera is another $15. And you can buy it right now, not "pre-order" something "coming soon". Coral supply history is a very sad tale. The hardware was impressive 4 years ago, when it first came out. But now we have no second generation in sight, no supply and no communication from Google that they are still interested in this project.
Google should not be allowed to do that either.
And/or they can fix GitHub’s caching of NPM if it saves NPM money.
Nice idea but it's a shame the recordings are so short. I'd love some hours-long version that I could put on in the background and pair with a bit of ambient for fun.
Tesla is big on rejecting "standards." Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. Their door handles on the Models 3 & Y are more aerodynamic but unintuitive, and exiting is non-standard too (for no apparent reason).

On the other hand, the fob-less key is a massive advantage. Connect your phone, and it is your key. You don't even have to take it out of your pocket. You've also got a backup, physical key card that fits in your wallet. I hate bulky key fobs, so this is a huge win for me.

As for charging, nothing beats Tesla. Plug in to a SuperCharger and 1) charging starts immediately, no scanning, no app, no nothing, 2) the SuperCharger network is extensive and reliable--on my last road trip, I stopped in a small town that had a SuperCharger with eight working stalls and a Level 3 charger that had one non-working stall; bummer if you're not driving a Tesla; 3) the navigation is SC aware and will route you to the nearest SC, pre-condition the battery for faster charging when you get close and even let you know how many stalls are free as you're approaching.
Yeah; now they think that Chrome is...
Honestly if I knew how to do this I would do it. How do I convince a bunch of billionaires to hand me money to do very fundamental research? Dream would be to have it be very open too and hire people from multiple domains but keep a high focus on being nuance and detail oriented. Honestly, I don't think companies like OpenAI are going to end up being the first to AGI because they get caught in the profit stages and so just pivot to say that more data and more compute is all you need. Maybe it is true, but I doubt it. And most certainly there are other ways considering a 3 pound piece of meat does it using less than a kW per day.
Honestly, H2's got a long long way (if viable at all) to go as the future of clean cars. There is not much natural H2. In a way, H2 acts like a battery as well using electricity to produce from H2O, and discharge as electricity to H2O. Producing it cleanly, like with green power, isn't efficient yet – it's only around 70% efficient. Plus, getting H2 from the factory to the customer is way way pricier than just using our current electricity grid for charging stations... Converting it to electricity is only about ~30% efficient(?) It will cost a few times more than electricity in the foreseeable future. It will be definitely much harder than have charging stations everywhere.

Not to mention the technical challenges (assume we can handle) of the low volume density, low temperature..
It isn't only Windows, we also have XBox (ok, a Windows flavour), PlayStation (a FreeBSD fork), Switch (a mikrokernel OS with POSIX like stuff), Android (a Linux where no one ports games to GNU/Linux from), iOS/macOS (NeXTSTEP derived OS).

Many of those, with UNIX like OSes, could easily port their games to GNU/Linux (specially the Android NDK ones), they don't because it isn't worth it, monetary speaking.
While these aren't "extreme PC gaming" by any stretch of the imagination, I love how powerful these modern integrated graphics are.

These RDNA iGPUs and the Meteor Lake Arc graphics are going to be the baseline that a lot of kids with hand-me-down laptops are going to end up with.

And when they inevitably will go onto whatever replaces reddit in the next 5y and ask "can I play X on this", a lot of the time, the answer will be "yes, kind of".

I believe these integrated graphics may do more for PC gaming than all those $2000 graphics cards ever did.

They'll make PC gaming accessible to more people, who have been priced out of the market for years now.

Show HN: Made a tool to restyle or design your room
When I was looking to spruce up my office, the only options available were expensive interior design services. I just wanted to quickly get some ideas without breaking the bank.

So we made a new tool to do exactly that. You can add an image of your existing room or even a mockup/drawing, give it a style, and it'll generate some ideas for you.

I know a few of these have popped up, but I found them to be really bad at restyling rooms. Ours isn't perfect and there are lot of improvements to make, but some of the outputs are stunning (IMO) and it does a decent job at following the room's existing layout and dimensions.

For my use case - it's almost perfect! I'd love to get your feedback.

1. Go to https://shopdeft.com

2. Click the little image icon in the middle of the search bar.

The unexpected growth spurt was not the result of strange geological forces, nor the invasion of a foreign land, but the States attempting to lay claim to its surrounding ocean-floor territory.

Why limit yourself to an iPad specific keyboard? I use low-profile mechanical keyboards which offer much better typing experience, and are just as portable. When traveling the Nuphy air 75 fits in any bag, at home I pair it with a slightly larger keychain k15 pro, due to its ergonomic layout.
I do a lot with solar for work, and had a few questions immediately. Are the Renology panels what you had access to chosen for a specific purpose? Some of the panels we use for high efficiency jobs are 400+ watts at a size closer to your 200w panels than your 440w panels. Also, have you considered using any type of optimizer or per-panel MPPT? Those can have a significant impact on real-world performance in my experience, especially in cases of shading or uneven panel soiling. With high efficiency panels, panel optimizers, and series stringing you could likely get to DC charging voltages (although at paltry amperage).
Last year I've been working in a Golang open source tool with a more modest approach by now (just command line) but with a similar goal (to keep personal info), in my tool formats are described using simple YAML templates and stored in a sqlite db file (https://github.com/khromalabs/keeper), glad to know about more open source tools exploring similar ideas.
Yeah, sorry -- Twitter Spaces were absolutely awful, and this particular space was so bad with respect to audio that we made fun of it ourselves in our roundup of Oxide and Friends for On the Metal.[0] We moved to Discord over a year ago, and the audio issues went away. But I thought the content of this conversation was great nonetheless -- with my apologies for the audio snafus!

It was a different world back then. To become “online”, you dialed a number. Then it was the time to search and download files, and to save pages for offline use. You probably also turned off images and JavaScript and accidentally learned HTML by looking at the text source of that broken layout.

The rest was an offline experience. You tinkered with the precious downloaded files. You knew how to change bytes with a hex editor, even if you knew nothing about the format.

Storage of H2 is a challenge in space and weight constrained devices such as cars. Plus, any well to wheels analysis shows H2 coming up behind the alternatives in efficiency.

There aren't claims, these are physical constraints. For heavy vehicles such as trucks and busses (and trains) there might be a market, provided the H2 is an otherwise unused byproduct of some process and needn't be produced, but for the majority of personal mobility major breakthroughs are required to make it competitive.
Many convolutional neural networks for image classification work on 299x299 inputs. If it had a higher resolution camera, it would just need to scale down every frame.

Unity only added Mono to their stack when they went cross platform, during their Mac OS X days, they only supported Boo and JavaScript for scripting.
I also came across ArchiveBox a few days ago to see if I should migrate off my home-grown solution with Puppeteer, SingleFile & readability.js.

I think it all comes down to the fears of investors. At larger companies they have to answer to share holders who are moody, pessimistic, and very bipolar. They will look at a companies revenue, see that its doing well, but still lose sleep over every negative piece of financial news they hear. Then they'll demand costs to be cut. 'd-dont you see the economy...' Next thing you know executives have to do the same thing as every other company to be perceived as competent. Investors love their group think so if you're doing something different during a time like this they're going to lose their shit (even more.)

For smaller companies the explanation is probably much simpler: there's less spending on new companies and therefore maximizing 'runaway' is critical. So if its not absolutely essential it needs to be cut. People who don't do that might not survive until things turn around, unfortunately. It's not a great situation to be in.

I would say that plaintext is correct.

if password "secret123" is sent to you, it doesn't matter if it was sent via carrier pigeon, locked up in a secure briefcase and delivered by someone driving an aston martin, or via a TLS channel. It's still plaintext, because the receiver now has the actual password, and not a hash of the password.

Yeah, having interviewed pretty recently, I was shocked at how low startup offers were compared to established companies and late stage startups.
I know it's hard to buy a house right now and some people have been laid off which is always the worst and prices are still too high. But I must say that the economy seems more "normal" than it has in a long, long time.

Private Equity is paying a ton of money to borrow. Startups don't raise at billion-dollar valuations on a dream and a white-paper. Monkey NFTs are worthless. Several crypto currencies that seemed like thinly veiled scams are basically dead. China has stopped building empty cities.

This all seems pretty good. If the US Government wasn't staring at a mushroom cloud of unsustainable debt without future interest rate decreases, I'd say things are down right peachy.
