Hah! The code doesn't work because chatGPT missed a very obscure trick...

At the start of the code is a comment "REM xxxxxx". It stripped this comment out thinking it was junk.

But actually, the code later uses the "PAGE" command to directly read RAM to get the contents of this comment, which it then uses as a lookup table for dithering.
This is good news (and honestly not a huge surprise given the current trajectory)

But what is with all the negative comments here? People are complaining about completely irrelevant things just so don't have to say anything positive about Samsung?
That's a weird issue I hadn't heard of before.

Wouldn't a simpler and cheaper solution be to run an extra circuit to the horn? You'd then honk it by pressing a new button (or use an unused one) in the dashboard.

The difficulty mainly depends on how hard it is to get a pair of wires from the horn across the firewall into the dashboard. On some cars this would take no more than an hour in total.
How is industry productivity not relevant to the point being made? It’s quite possible for there to be a direct correlation between work productivity and industry productivity.
You are also discounting many other benefits of remote work. While yes someone may be doing laundry when they should be filling out expense reports, they are also not spending time on a lengthy commute. As a result they are also spending less time at the gas station and for car maintenance bills. I’ll admit I do personal chores on the company’s dime, but the time and resources I save by working remote make up for it at the very least.
Why is it a separate app?
Yeah, I guess this aspect is underappreciated here on HN: most "hackers" also hack in their spare time, so probably already have a desk (maybe even a separate room) where they have good working conditions at home.
It is not pointless just because browsers ignore them. It’s there for humans reading the markup.

I want to say all the usual clichéd things like I'm sorry for your loss but it feels like nothing even comes close to being helpful. I hope you find a way through.
I like the work he put into the answer but he totally flubs it at the end. Black bears are actually dark brown and brown bears are also brown, so there’s no need to try and guess a specific bear species; the bear is necessarily brown.

Yep, it is exactly like Microsoft charging for every computer PC produced, regardless of wether it ran a MS operating system.
It's for backwards compatibility of C compilers (and lack of proper namespaces).
All identifiers starting with an underscore are reserved for use by compiler intrinsics and such. Although most compilers don't complain if your variable names start with a leading underscore, it is recommended to not have such identifiers in your code.
Yeah, when I first looked at the shocking source code for bionic (Android's libc) to figure out why my code wasn't working I couldn't believe it was written by Google. It wasn't really. (Nor did they (initially) borrow from any of the high-quality open source libcs out there.)
Much appreciated for the efforts.

This is why I don't like Khronos APIs, even when actually those are the ones I know relatively well, the way they work end up being a much worse experience than writting backend specific plugins ourselves with much better tooling, also the extension spaghetti ultimately doesn't save us from multiple code paths anyway, given the differences between some of those extensions.

To pick your example, something like PyTorch ends up being a much better developer experience, similar to game engines, than relying on Khronos APIs.

Most likely the video was recorded with an iPhone. Playing it on an Apple device then automatically turns on some sort of an HDR mode and unlocks higher brightness - commonly seen while scrolling through reddit videos and other social media.
I personally follow the "I am the user, my rules" when it comes to language rules :P. It is at least as strong as "their word, their rules".

Also I can see that Paul Graham's "my website my rules" is even stronger than mine or DJ Delorie's, so Djgpp is also correct (if not by the Gods, then by fist).
As far as I know, “you’re doing God’s work” is a relatively common - if somewhat archaic - idiom. It means roughly “I appreciate what you’re doing.”

Ask HN: Seeking Job Opportunities in Berlin
I don't have an academical background but I finished my apprenticeship in Berlin as an IT Systems Electronics.

I would love to hear some opportunities where to start off now.

I would say I am very helpful person and I wanna help.

Does anyone know where I can start now or where to look for?

C++ is somewhat bloat.

We need a "C++ lite".

We do this by moving features from C++ to C, bit-by-bits, until C become bloated.

The revenge of the video game manual
Is it that the reflection of the already-on LED (or maybe external light at the right angle) is hitting the sensor used for NOT and then creating a feedback loop to keep the light on when the switch isn't pressed? This happened a few times, and either changing the ambient light or holding the book tightly shut will resolve the issue on my copy.

edit: because the author is here, thanks for the book: an interesting idea and well-executed. Daughter doesn't mind the front page blue LED. I am more amused than annoyed: even a two-transistor circuit needs debugging sometimes.

Thanks for the reply. I did not find public documentation for Kendryte, only a Github repository. At least the code is in English. But the AI examples include an "nncase" library which I could not find on the repository. So I could not see the instructions their accelerator has.

On the other hand, esp-nn seems to be code for the xtensa instruction set. I briefly overviewed the instructions. They seem optimized for DSP rather than ML applications. Searching for SIMD returned no arithmetic instructions. Searching for parallel returned instructions for multiply and accumulate. Further, the FPU does not compute any kind of 16-bit floating point numbers.

While I’m very sceptical of these robots (it’s basically self driving cars all over again; roads are harder to use than people think), you could make a decent argument that the ‘gig economy’ stuff is a product of the financial crisis recession and its depressed labour market; as major economies have returned to functionally full employment, the economics have become ever shakier.

Scratch also has a community -- you can explore others' creations and see how they work, which is a great way to learn, imo.
Even being one of those people isn't a very good guarantee when it comes to avoiding impact from those you referred to that truly hold no value to their own life, or freedom.
I was wondering the same. After a little searching, I reckon they're referring to 人 on a keyboard using a dàyì layout.

By the looks of it the LED's are in plastic cases. The actual UV LED's that can be used fro sterilization come in metal cases with glass windows. And they cost multiple dollars per LED. Basically the LED's on that product are the wrong frequency to be effective. 300-400nm instead of 250nm.
The movement against ip has been hijacked by those who wish to exploit creators. People advocating for the abolition of property are useful idiots. Corporations know that the biggest threat of ip is to them not to us. By being able to protect what’s ours means we can leverage the vast knowledge we’ve created by building open source models that make services provided by many knowledge corporations redundant. Ironically the only way to abolish ip according to our terms is by not abolishing ip. We can leverage it to explicitly prevent corporations from using open licensed code unless they too open their models. That’s the idea.

However, I am strongly against using artist or writer work against their will. That also benefits corporations. Also ironic that we can use against them the play they used against us. Imagine open models that the artist or legal or writing community can use but not corporations unless they open their models.
So it's a stream, not a list, because those have a length.
There's no point making bad analogies. Thinking mobile developers have the choice of "being stabbed or robbed" is not going to help us understand this economic situation better. Those instincts will definitely result in bad conclusions.

> an alternate provider of the product or service that reasonably allows you to reach the same set of your customers

If you target one company's customers, you can't complain about a lack of competition. If I only service BMWs, I need to do whatever certifications BMW say I need to do, and get a diagnostic tool that talks to BMWs. If I service cars in general, I don't. But then I won't make as big a profit from an easier to target set of potential customers.

I’ve actually had very few issues with Target’s systems where I live. They seem to be fool proof, and I’m a pretty big fool so that’s saying something. I still prefer cashiers when I can, because I’m trying to support human jobs out here.
Polymorphic types are certainly useful, and I wish C had a better way to go about it, but this proposal feels like an odd patch to C's type system. Especially this part:

```
Using a run-time value of type _Type T in _Var(T) can be allowed in general (and is useful), but
needs to be restricted to contexts where full type information is not required at compile-time.
```

Semantic rules that conditionally apply only in some contexts is a common tendency of the C++ standard that many C programmers often dislike.

Yeah, I also got vibes of my favourite sci fi authors when reading it.
This classic short-termism is all too common in software engineering. The reputational damage and likely compensation will exceed by far the costs of identifying and fixing these bugs. However, the CTO at the time has long moved on, and likely got a decent bonus at the time by cutting software engineering resources.

It's not an ad-hom to point out that "Hacker News" used to be populated by Hackers, who maintained an ethos of trying to take on unfair players. Maybe it was too long ago.
With my son we hooked a python API to minecraft, you can then write some kind of bot. He really had fun with it. Being able to see things in a 3d world he knows with 2 lines of code is what got him hooked. He learned python to build things, not to learn to code.

I think you should use a platform with immediate results like this and forget about coding. There is also dreams on ps5 which is great. Try to find a way to scripting or modding a game he loves. It is really rewarding.

Also, talk about it when you are with him, in commute, at dinner...
> I am working in making, Rust specifically, 100% code generated.

Generating code is trivial. Generating code that works is not. I suspect you are at around 10-15% of reaching that. All models out there are probably at 2-3% as they barely equal a google prompt in reliability.

> I couldn't stop thinking to myself about how many smart people work there, and how much money the company has, yet still it was one of the worst online experiences that I've had.

Intellect by itself does not cause good. When will HN understand that? (Never.)
One cause is the tax benefits. If you're selling qualified small business stock, you can defer gains by rolling them over into new qualified small business investments, within a certain time window. That's a pretty big tax preference, and it means that even if you don't do an amazing job of angel investing, you might be better off than taking the money, paying tax on the gains, and investing it in real estate or the stock market.

My (project machine) Dell Inspiron 15R SE 7520 laptop has started hanging while powered off or sleeping, with the power LED still blinking but the machine not responding to any external inputs (opening the lid, pressing the power button, holding it down). I assume the EC microcontroller is hanging, but I don't know why that is. I took the laptop apart, took the coin cell battery out and put it back in, and the problem stopped for a month or so but has returned.

What's causing the issue? Perhaps the coin cell battery is drained (and I didn't know the right way to test CR2032s at the time, so I thought it was good)? Or is the EC fried or corrupted, perhaps because I did a botched BIOS reflash which corrupted the EC, and had to reprogram the EC in flashrom over multiple passes while skipping "hung" flash blocks (the pin to hold the EC in reset didn't make flash properly writable)? Afterwards the laptop would boot, but dumping the EC flash again revealed the image was changed again. Or did the EC die due to flash corruption that occurred afterwards (either from flaky chips or because I damaged it earlier)?

Blinken stuck in Switzerland after Boeing malfunction
Most unions cap pay, e.g., [1]. A simple Google gives plenty of evidence.

Your claim about SAG is also wrong; SAG has plenty of pay caps too. For example, here [2] is one explained on their own site. They've always had them and likely always will. There's plenty more.

Unions extract higher pay by making a monopoly on labor (and US antitrust law had to carve out a special monopoly exception for them). This monopoly obtains higher wages for those in the union at the cost of those prevented from working by the union and by increased prices to the surrounding economy. These are all standard econ results.

Almost the same here. I actually got started with Borland Visual C++ but moved onto DJGPP, IIRC so I could get access to all 32 bits of memory address space? It's been a long time!

I recall my daughter spending loads of time in Roblox games that other kids had made, so long as the game logic is not to crazy you might just need to arrange objects and let the existing 3d controls take care of the hard part.

It's a name for two (admittedly entirely unrelated use case) pieces of software. Just because something may or may not stand up in court doesn't automatically preclude lawyers from sending Cease & Desist letters or what ever.

It would take a long time to pump that amount of water out of the lock that you’re lowering, and over time you’ll be pumping saltwater into a freshwater system, which isn’t good. You’d have to do filtering or something, at great expense. Currently it takes a short time to drain the lock, so ships transit faster. It’s pretty fun to do that transit, but I was amazed that the pilot let me conn the ship the whole time instead of doing it themselves. I guess on military ships they prefer we do it maybe, but I was glad for that experience.

My ship had two jet turbine engines that did 31 MW of propulsion, which was a small ship compared to most freighters, so energy wise it would be very efficient still.
Somewhat related.. I recently discovered Facebook "Ad Topics". In my case through Instagram preferences. List of topics is hilariously long and 2/3rds have nothing to do with me.

This actually has a semantic purpose, it's not just about bike shedding. CSS classes, if applied to the same element, will prefer the class that's defined later in the CSS file. The plugin sorts them via priority order so it's more clear is one tag might override another.
