"You could instead learn what patterns should be avoided and why."

In an ideal world yes. But in the real world nobody knows everything, we have deadlines, and no company actually sets aside time to onboard you on CSS.

But also, it takes a while to establish a pattern. Using tailwind wasn't my decision and it took a while of working with it before I noticed that I was rejecting fewer PR's for `!important`. It took a little longer to establish the cause was tailwind and the reasoning behind why.

But also, how are people supposed to learn with all this noise? Most of the critique of tailwind in this thread is incredibly surface level.

If we go all 19th century and assert that all men over the age of 18 are combatants. Then we get 70% of the deaths are civilian, and 30% are combatants. However we know a large number of adult men killed in Gaza or not combatants, e.g. they are journalists, UN workers, poets, university professors, etc. So 66% civilians seems very likely to be a huge underestimate.
Ok but they haven't literally released all restraints because no nuclear weapons have been used.

Assuming that, like ChatGPT, the model runs on Google's servers doesn't this vastly increase the cost to Google of offering Chrome for free? Now you have to provide AI compute time to every 4chan poster and forum warrior.

The economics of AI still seems nuts to me. Feels like another bait and switch in the making when all these "free" services need to start showing some revenue.
Even more succinctly if it were the case then the new offering wouldn't be limited to Europe and the old offering wouldn't be an option to retain going forward there either.
What kind of problems are you facing for entity extraction with 3.5? I am also currently working with 3.5 for entity extraction and entity linking. It is a fun pipeline but curious what issues you ran into?
The raw number of people killed isn't indicative of a genocide, it's intent and actions against a specific population. Over 1.5 million (out of 2 million) Gaza residents are displaced and facing starvation. Almost all of the hospitals in Gaza have been destroyed. Many would say Israel is committing genocide and the court today said they will continue the investigation because it's plausible.
And I'm saying that I disagree with you.
I think you’re experiencing the fickleness of Google through their hardware.

Google is famous for killing products and constantly reinventing the wheel instead of committing to a solution.

Those software issues are seeping down to their hardware products. Of all the ginormous monopolists, it's the most likely to disappear.
I misread the comment…
It's not by the same person — sta.li was by Anselm R Garbe. It's more like a spiritual successor.
> The ICJ disgraces itself condemning a nation not engaged in genocide on behalf of a nation that is.

There's no condemnation in the text. It shows you didn't read the ICJ order.
>V2G/H is more than likely to be a thing in the near future further putting the EV batteries to work stabilizing the grid.

Yes. Even before we get to full V2G, managed charging provides a helpful degree of flexibility.

An EV is a giant battery (several times the size of a Tesla PowerWall, for example) that happens to move sometimes. The battery can be used for other things when the car isn't moving - and it will be.

For insurance, USAA has god tier support. I've never had to wait more than a minute to get a US based rep that knows what they're doing.

Edit: That minute includes going through the "Press X for Y services" menu.
At the end of the day, the ICJ does not matter because it has no military, and the only major military power in the world, the United States of America, doesn't recognize its jurisdiction at all. Next time, they should try the Supreme Court if they actually want to make a difference (not that it'd work)

A fighter with a human can only pull so many Gs so a drone fighter will always outmaneuver a manned fighter of the same generation, probably outgun it too now you can pack more missiles where the body used to be.
International law regulates war, but does not entirely prohibit it (that would be futile; wars of aggression are specifically prohibited by Briand-Kellogg pact, but nowadays even aggressors try to dress the situation as justified defense and often get away with it; few wars since 1945 were tried by a competent tribunal and judged unlawful).

It isn't unlawful per se to cause civilian casualties during military operations; any demand that the warring parties limit themselves to killing combatants only would be unrealistic, especially in urban settings.

It is unlawful to target civilians intentionally or to cause wanton damage to civilian infrastructure, though.
Fully-human author here. I wrote it as a joke (a play on a common phrase), since numeric keypads were often used as data entry for accountants and people using spreadsheets.
> The Israeli judiciary is unique in nominating itself and having given itself the power to cancel any law or demand any changes to laws/policy on any arbitrary basis;

1. Not completely. There are quite a few countries with fully independent judiciary, with judges appointing judges.

2. Courts with power to initiate, and prosecute a case by themselves also exist in other countries.
That's my impression as well: the F-35 program materially improved, but it also helps that the media no longer calls it a trillion dollar failure.

But dynamically linked library only needs to be loaded to RAM once whereas with static linking you'd be loading the same code many times (unless you compile everything to single binary like BusyBox). This also gets you better cache utilization.

Also I think inlining would typically increase the total size of output rather than decrease it.
Personally, I just expect Teams to be janky. At least where I work, I don't think that a day goes by that it doesn't glitch out in one way or another.

The shadow libraries are the largest collection of human knowledge to date, and completely untainted by AI. Any search engine that crawls and indexes them will have a tenfold increase in quality and be as revolutionary as the invention of the internet. No LLM model needed.

On top of that, there is no incentive for AI generated content to enter the shadow libraries at all.

In practice, the 3 Supreme Court Judges, the two representatives of the Israel Bar Association, and the 1 Knesset member "traditionally" representing one of the two major political camps [the one aligned with most Supreme Court Judges] always vote together, so most of the judiciary is appointed according to the wishes of the Supreme Court Judges. The veto on appointing Supreme Court Judges adds a modicum of balance, but given that the country can be set on fire at will by the Supreme Court like we've seen in 2023, I don't believe that this veto is that effective at changing appointments (if an appointee is declared illegitimate by the Supreme Court, the country will be paralyzed by protests; and more prosaically, you promote to the highest court from lower courts and everyone appointed to these was appointed by a simple majority without the 7-out-of-9 veto.)

The idea that 5 out 9 people nominating judges aren't elected, directly or indirectly, is AFAIK a fairly unique Israeli invention. This is taught in schools as a good thing because there's "a majority of professionals rather than politicians." I presume that this idea is so effective and consistent with the principles of democracy that it should also work for nominating governments and lawmakers.
I think this will be a mistake.

The displays in this device are crazy. I honestly didn't think they'd be able to put together a value proposition, but I think they legitimately did. It's super expensive, and some of the cost of the device seems kind of silly (if I heard correctly, the display on the front is 3d and gives different perspectives based upon the viewers), so obviously they're going to have a lot of room to improve value in subsequent generations.

But it's going to be a hit. HN is going to be swamped with "How I used Vision Pro to..." posts when it comes out.
I guess you are just ignorant of the facts then. Israel only provides a portion as part of their humanitarian aid (but it isn't their responsibility to power Gaza.. just as no country is held responsible for anothers electricity?). I'd start with this wikipedia article:

The Economist who wants the field to account for nature
> Gretchen Daily is working to make the environment more of an element in economic decision-making.
Fully agreed. That the ICJ didn't order a ceasefire in this matter is honestly disgusting and just shows who's lives they value more.

As an American Jew (non-religious), I cannot express enough how sad this entire situation has made me. I grew up learning about the Holocaust and learning how important it is for people to stand up when a government turns in that direction. Those morals meant I always knew that Israel was wrong in the situation with Palestine but this conflict has definitely lifted any clouds that remained on the situation.

If you don't think Israel is a pure and simple apartheid state, I would very much recommend looking up the word in a dictionary. It's horrible that anyone has died on either side, but the imbalance at the current time in lives lost is just.. saddening. When it comes to genocide, it's one of those things where you know it when you see it and if you don't see it I say open your eyes.

Israel and the west can continue to label millions of people as terrorists to justify their acts, but history will hopefully look at this event with more understanding and empathy for those people Israel have shoved into small corners and starved of resources for decades. October 7 was terrible and should not have happened, but do you blame the oppressed people or do you blame the powerful government that has oppressed them?
My ex-wife managed the security team at MySpace from about 2006 to 2008. The really wild part was when she went online to the MySpace hacker forums to see how the days’ work had gone. The insistence on allowing users to put HTML onto the site was a huge problem. These days, I think the solution would be to do a proper parse of the HTML input and remove forbidden attributes and tags, but back then it was handled via insanity with regexes.
Can you explain how any of this is related to a discussion on making expected features of a vehicle “coming soon”?
Maybe he had learned a lesson
So first it is different, then it is not?

In any case, the Internet does not have to pay Apple to be discoverable and accessible.
I am reluctant to agree with Netflix given how they still don't support the Apple TV app for discovery out of some need to control the user experience.

But he isn't wrong, but that shouldn't be news and isn't a bad thing. It's been clear that this was going to be the situation from the beginning and Apple is playing the long game here.

This is just clickbait headlines being spread around.

This was never going to be a mass market device at this price and that is fine, I mean we don't complain that there isn't a Netflix app for Mac?
>Hopefully its not pedantic or unwelcome of me to make the distinction between spread-spectrum and frequency hopping

Spread spectrum refers to any technique where a narrowband signal is deliberately spread to occupy a larger bandwidth.

Frequency-hopping is an example of a spread spectrum technique; they're not different things. Direct-sequence spread spectrum (which is what I think you're describing) is also a spread spectrum technique.

There are also other techniques; the most popular one is probably the chirp spread spectrum as used in LoRA.
This is both false and irrelevant. Anti-Jewish pograms in MENA following the Arab-Israeli war are well documented. Israel had a variety of motivations for ensuring they could comfortably resettle in Israeli territory, but that doesn't change the crisis Arab Jewish people faced in their home countries: they were forcibly expelled.

Further, it doesn't matter. Most stats I've seen suggest that the Mizrahim are at least a plurality of Israelis, and none of those people can return to their "colonialist home countries". By way of example, long before the current Gaza war, the literal first "official" action Ansar Allah took when it established control of territory in Yemen was to expel the very few remaining Jewish families.
Bricolage is my personal favorite. Been a fan forever
Innovation in building and tech is going too fast for these small installation type companies. Zigbee, sensors, switches, motion sensors, per room heating, insulation, decentralized heat recovering ventilation, heat recovering sewage pipes, (noisy?) heat pumps, CO2 sensors, particle sensors, hybrid heating systems, house batteries, solar panels, heat panels, car chargers, vehicle to grid, smart appliances, variable electricity rates, dc subgrids…

An enthusiast can make a home so much better, more comfortable and efficient. But non of it is easily obtained the way we obtain our old gas heating systems.

And it drives me crazy, it’s so complex, it costs me so much time, but I just see so many “professionals” contradicting each other, I hate that I have to make all these choices.
Phosh is amazing. I'm currently running it on an Alcatel Idol 347 (2015) with 1.9GB using PostmarketOS, and it's just snappy and responsive as any Android UI, using ~ 300MB in RAM with the desktop. Very happy with it.
I think part of the problem with F-35 was that it took a long time to be developed. First flight was in 2006 and entered service 2015 to 2019. That is a long time to be paying for plane that can't see. I think entering service with foreign countries and the price dropping with full production is what caused it to be accepted.
What a huge mistake it was to stop production on the f22. This article [1] says the decision was made in 2011. I bet it was in part because the f35 was going to be so great and it was going to be cheaper because it was going to be made in mass quantities. It is made in mass q, and we are selling it to many of our allies. It's a fantastic airframe, but still not an f22. If the US ever got into a big battle with a similar top power (ie China and maybe Russia is still counted there), a bunch of f22's would have been great.

That article says ngad replacement coming around 2033! Right in time to matchup against China (which I hope never happens for so many reasons, I don't want a war for anyone, now or in the future). The novel "2034: A Novel of the Next World War" was a really interesting book. It was written by a retired Admiral and talks about what a war might be like. Basically China has hacked all US computer systems including military ones and the US really struggles in the fight, atomic weapons are used, India plays the peacemaker.

I counted 215 issues online for the 90s decade. What is missing?
I'm not sure the protestors will be a net negative, lots of people protested trump in 2016 and them getting thrown out only encouraged his base. If you watch the videos of the Biden interruptions the crowd stays firmly on Biden's side.

Biden's issues at the moment are that economic sentiment is a lagging indicator of some variables that have only recently recovered to their normal values (inflation etc.). If these issues fix themselves we will have a better sense of whether Israel-Hamas War has meaningfully impacted him.
I have a hard time believing that there are many people in this world who can afford to spend $3,500 on an Apple Vision Pro, care to have a Netflix account, and don't already have one.

Certainly not enough to be able to reasonably expect to generate positive ROI on the price of developing and maintaining an app for it.
I don't think they're that large, but Consumer Cellular talked my mom through migrating her phone from Android to Apple over 2 hours which really impressed me. My calls with them have been really good too, but nothing on that level.
And before Joss Whedon fell out of favor, a lot of schools had courses in "Buffy studies". Yes, pop culture might seem a silly topic for a course, but clever instructors can use it as an entry way into more serious topics.
You say The Law as if it's something magical, come down from Mt. Sinai.

Instead of the political decision of a bunch of unelected Brussels would-be "elites" which would never pass a general referendum. If they ever had such things, which they generally don't.

Would we call a rule that "phones must have a USB-C connector" The Law? No, it's just lawyers with too much time on their hands.
Or brands can buy weight in the model.
Ask HN: Working with ineffective volunteers at non profit as a solo entrepreneur
Throwaway account to cover my tracks a bit.

I'm a volunteer for a non profit that works with mental health as part of a ragtag bunch of men who have been affected by mental health. I'm also a solo entrepreneur with a very 'get shit done' mentality in my own world. The latter doesn't always mesh well with the former, and it's causing me some frustation with how long things take to get done.

I report to a board of directors who aren't business owners, and they regard our organisation almost as a good cause whereas in reality it's a small business. There are donors (investors), customers (attendees) and staff (volunteers).

Without going into too many details, I've had to step back from some internal tasks since I was compensating for a director's lack of action / insight. I've done this for my own wellbeing, but I know ultimately sometimes things need to break before they come to light, and then they can be fixed.

I have no desire to cover for the ineffective director, and I'd like to avoid a personality conflict with them. I can split the person from the tasks (or lack of action / insight on the tasks), so I don't see any vendetta on the horizon, but I'm struggling with lack of practical experience here since I've been solo since 2006.

How do you deal with superiors at your organisation that appear to be without direction, strategy, awareness and action?

Thank you.

This truck is going to be a complete disaster in every conceivable way for Tesla. You've got a TAM on that thing of like.... maybe a few million people on earth? And even then, it's just going to be a silly short-lived fad for the ones who do. They more or less did the same idiotic thing as Ford with the Lighting. Tease a "$35k" starting MSRP for all the publicity, convince themselves they had a hit, and overcommit on manufacturing resources accordingly. Then, when the true out-the-door price becomes double that, act all surprised pikachu when no one shows up to buy.

Add to that the complete torching of any Tesla brand value left by Elon over the last couple years, and things are looking pretty grim over there. Stock at it's lowest point since joining the S&P 3 years ago, and sales growth hitting a brick wall.
>If the US stops all support immediately, this could be the end of Israel

The Problem is math=!math.

To be honest, this might be very challenging. BUT it may be possible. Just try entry level Analysis or Linear algebra. They often start kind of from scratch. How to construct numbers and so on. You could go very slow but at least you would be ready for real math...
When I take the output apart: The first sentence is to the point and short. The second is potentially redundant but might increase the likelihood of a reply. The third one is perhaps a bit over the top and could be merged shorter with the second (e.g., "... looking for, but I was wondering if ..."). Next one is just basic politeness. Last one feels optional but might at the margin increase likelihood/speed of reply.

Not perfect but not bad either (assuming a human reader on the receiving side).
