The screen is still usable no? It just disables true tone IIRC.

A day's wage in Colombia is about $10-15 and people tend to preference and pay more for original parts since the cost of the device is too high to risk. An iPhone X costs close to a month's salary. They even tend to avoid third party cables or chargers as a consequence.
It seems like the story is similar for many cancers. There's a lot of new immunotherapy based treatments.
All of my past projects where we implemented these cloud paradigms, didn't need them. There were better options to extract performance and improve scale than going all-in for cloud based migrations.

sure, that OS patch was auto updated, but that vuln in our deps that showed up over the weekend did suck in our time.

We lost productivity, the cloud credits ran out and so did our good folks.

There are tools I use a lot like my cordless drill and the main thing that goes is the battery which can be easily replaced.

"If brushfire risk is even a consideration, it would be best to follow the published “Energy Safe” guidelines which indicate that reclosing should be turned off when the fire risk is high."[1]

Reclosing works best when the main problem is lightning. But this is in California. Dry climate, high fire risk most of the year, multiple huge fires started by power line contact in recent years, and not much lightning. PG&E is gradually moving to underground cables where lines can't be well clear of trees, and is now much more aggressive about tree trimming. Compare Florida, with high humidity and many lightning strikes. There, reclosing is a big win, since most trips are from lightning.

Such a requirement would make actual investigative journalism all but impossible.
There are definitely some products for which it would be doable, for example Midea makes a lot of the microwave oven models sold in the US.
I came across a similar idea from a random multi-hour MMO analysis video I once watched. The idea is that most people enjoy working (defined as: spending hours, day after day, doing the same subset of things), but most people are not able to do the work they want to do. Their preferred work is not valuable, and so it cannot sustain them, but it is still work they enjoy doing.

The idea came up in an MMO video, because it attempts to make the claim that grindy MMOs are enjoyable to certain people because it is work they enjoy doing.

Ask HN: If I were to build an LLM app today...
There are so many libraries and frameworks out there, from LangChain to Ollama. While I could just use OpenAI's Assistants API, I want to compose my LLM responses in a way that's unique to my app; I don't want to build yet another thin wrapper around ChatGPT, where the only selling point is the proprietary prompt behind the app. Additionally, I would like to be able to switch to a different LLM provider (e.g. in case OpenAI fails on us or local LLMs have finally caught up to the same quality).

What are your recommendations for AI libraries? Tell me about your experience.
I did consulting a few times in my career (for startups, not FI). The last time:

1. My rate was $350/hr, which was about 3x my salary at the time. I would have laughed if someone offered me to do full time exclusive consulting for them at the rate of my regular employment salary. It just does not make any sense.

2. I didn't have an exclusivity clause in the contract. I could have agreed to exclusivity but for no less than 3 months of full time engagement (40hr/week).

3. Remote vs in office - must be clearly specified in the contract. I would not have agreed to visit the office more than once every two months (no longer than 3 days long visits).

4. Not sure what's weird about Jira, it's a standard tool many companies use.

In general, don't overthink what recruiter said. Talk to the hiring manager.
Ever since I was a little kid I was always hearing those inspirational stories about how someone would get into an accident and then "The doctor told me I would never walk again" or "I wouldn't make it to my next birthday" and then the person made a miraculous recovery and "proved them wrong" or something along those lines.

It always seemed like an attention bias to me. Because for sure there are many more stories about the doctor being right and the person did never actually walk again. And we don't really pay attention to the stories about the doctor saying they would walk again. Those aren't interesting.

It can also be a bias with the triumphant person overestimating the negativity of the past. Like did the doctor really say you will never walk again, or that it will be tremendously difficult and unlikely?

People like an underdog story and will hold it with more attention than other stories in which the expectations met reality.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_launch_market_competitio...

If you only consider US-allied launches, SpaceX represents a staggering 92% of market share. There are lots of space companies. They are not price competitive. At all.

It costs $2720/kg to launch payload with Falcon 9. The next closest, US-allied launch vehicle costs $9,167/kg. Falcon Heavy will extend the lead to $1500/kg.

You're not going to compete in building a constellation of satellites using launches that cost 3.5-6.1x the price (depending on when they get to launching vs readiness of Heavy)

The AST SpaceMobile BlueWalker 3 weighs 1500kg. They want to launch 243 satellites. The price difference between using Falcon 9 and Ariane 5G is $2.4B. AST SpaceMobile's market cap is $675M.

That would require that religion exists outside of human experience, to be discovered and understood and awoken to - which is a nice story, but not strictly true.

There is no religion, outside of what we imagine. We made it up. It isn’t like the water cycle, it’s not something just waited to be discovered by humans who know how to look for it. Religion is fantasy.

Thanks for the link, the comparison to other retail shops was enlightening. I had not previously considered how much retail space a gym user uses in comparison to say, a grocery shopper.
DRM used to work; I installed Chrome in Lutris and managed to get Amazon Prime working, though Chrome was very buggy. Netflix sort of works in Firefox (needs an addon to play 1080p video, no idea about 4k).

Microsoft Office (at least, a version that's kept up to date) doesn't work in Wine. I find ONLYOFFICE to be a very competent replacement, though.

I've also used Cassowary to configure a Windows 10 VM + Remote Desktop Apps, which allow for Windows programs to appear native in the Linux launcher while secretly launching the VM and starting an RDP session for that application alone. It's a bit fiddly to set up, but it works if you rarely ever use Office.

As a last resort, you could do what Microsoft did with Windows 11 when Wordpad got removed: install Microsoft Office Online as a web application (requires Chromium/WebKit browser to be installed since Mozilla decided PWAs aren't important to desktop users).

If you don't care much about privacy risks, you could also skip the Linux crap and install ChromeOS Flex. It's probably the most user-friendly Linux desktop out there, and DRM should work out of the box.
Another place to look for inspiration is the HPC world. Fairshare job queues have been active on multi tenant HPC clusters for decades. Each job typically has a priority value assigned to it based on the submission time, expected resources required, and how much of the cluster the account/user has used recently. Priorities can be continuously updated until the job is released for processing.
The AI winter is coming, and it's going to be bad. So many promises have been made, to the extent that the average person thinks that AGI is just around the corner.

Given that men and women are very different, if people are allowed to or even incentivised to do what they are good at and/or want to do then of course you will end up with industries being more or less dominated by either gender. The only way you won't get that is by not allowing people to do what they're good at because of their genitalia which I think is very much not ok. Or perhaps if men and women weren't very different, which they obviously are.

> IMO it is proven that Boeing does not care about your safety, they just asked for an exception for a safety requirement, putting the passanger safety responsibility on pilots training and memory because fixing the issue the proper way would cost time and money and that is more important then safety

That's a rather uncharitable take on what they are asking for which is a temporary reprieve over a pretty minor risk.

> Boeing states it is working on a "long-term solution" for the problem, which would be rolled out across the entire global Boeing 737 MAX fleet. The FAA confirmed this, stating that Boeing is looking at design changes.
good joke
Understanding local and state laws is crucial when joining a gym, as these laws often provide additional consumer rights. For example, Washington State has specific laws that benefited me with a "cool-off" period after feeling pressured to sign up. While I'm not familiar with the regulations in other regions, it's likely that similar protections exist due to prevalent issues in the fitness industry.
> when something goes extinct I'd say that's evidence that it isn't viable.

It depends on the thing, but in general I don't think that assumption is terribly valid. The problem is that "viable" and "maximally profitable" are two different things. Companies have decided to chase the latter exclusively -- but that's a choice to satisfy short-term greed, it's not a reflection on what a viable business has to look like.

I think it's more reflective of how much the exercise of capitalism has degraded since those times.
And on the part of who called the police in the first place. In my experience teachers and school management are just too paranoid/neurotic and will escalate everything so they can't be blamed.

It's eerily good with the Apple TV.

I often watch movies with AirPods Max in the living room. Multiple times I've had to take off the headphones to make sure I'm not accidentally blasting whatever I'm watching through the home theater setup instead.

With "normal" headphones the sound follows your head, so if you glance to the side to see where your snacks are, the voice turns. With spatial audio the voice still sounds like it's coming from where the TV is. (Or iPad or iPhone)

Especially for user facing (so, UI based) software it definitely isn't as easy as .configure && make && make install for a very large number of packets.

This QT version or that? Hunt down some weird dependency. Find that that dependency clashes with a more recent version, but you can't downgrade. Oh, oops your app depends on a quirk in glibc v x but your system only has v y so now you have to figure out how to run two different glibc's without conflicting with each other, and better not make a mistake during that installation or your system may never boot again.

Complex software can be quite a pain to build properly, more-so if you want to target multiple different architectures or operating systems.

Just about every proposed regulation in this article would dramatically increase the selling price of nearly all goods, and dramatically hinder new entrants from selling new products by increasing the burden to get started.

If that's the set of tradeoffs you want to make, ok, fine. But be up-front about it.

Consumer goods, by and large, are not markets with massive profit margins. They're markets of incredible scale with slim margins that generate large revenue as a result. You're not going to get better, more repairable products out of this. You're going to get fewer, more expensive products.

I agree. My team has been building systems integrations for years, and it's figuring out what the customers want, and dealing with bad, inconsistent data accumulated over decades that makes life hard. Moving these boring microservices that handle this data from on-prem to the cloud wouldn't solve any of our problems. Most of our customer-facing services also run with on-prem VM instances just fine.
Very nice, even with no planes overhead. But it looks like the map orientation is reversed (off by 180 degrees)? Real bug, or just me?
> The Waymo passenger answered and there was much giggling. She kept saying she didn't know what to do. I said just leave it in the car.

I inferred that you discussed this with the person, since you indicated you talked to them via voice. That would have been the perfect time to arrange for return of the device.

I guess after reading between the lines, this person didn't suggest this action during the voice call, only via the text you discovered afterwards?

Elsewhere you mention that leaving the phone in the car was the best course of action, but the next person in that waymo could easily have swiped it.

I suppose a middle ground could have been to tell them to put it in the back seat pocket or something so that it was a bit more hidden while you contacted waymo support to let them know to retrieve it.

> Also, tell me more about how a stranger holding a random found device authenticates a caller as the owner of said device.

This is a little much. That's quite a threat model you are operating under. It explains why you immediately wiped. I think most people are not concerned with that contingency.

Show HN: Open-source gamified community platform
Hey! Wanted to showcase this project I’ve been passionately working on.

It’s an open source community platform built with the nextjs app router.

There’s lots of cool features, but the main one I’m excited about is the gamification.

There’s a badge and inventory system. Admins can set value to user actions like creating a post. Then a user can use their accumulated points to purchase items that have modifiers on things like your username or avatar.

There’s zero vendor lock in and all you need is a:

- redis server
- s3 storage
- smtp server

Built with nextjs and prisma. Would love your thoughts and opinion. If you have any issues getting it running feel free to ping me on x at @dillonraphael
Hi author! Given the timeframe of the subject, I was surprised to see no mention in the New Yorker article of Al Hubbard, who was well known to be involved in that early era, both in developing now common therapeutic practices such as the use of the Hubbard Room, and working to expose as many influential cultural, religious, industrial, government, and military figures to the experience as possible.

Was there any collaboration or correspondence between Mead/Bateson and Hubbard? Documentation on Hubbard can be hard to find, and he seems to have preferred it that way.
