> It's fascinating to me that the complexity of life always goes up. Outside extinction events, complex life generally seems to become more favourable over time. It's interesting that (to my knowledge) we don't see an ecosystem lose complexity in its entirety unless it's dying.

I think that's a biased take. Complex life may be better at exploiting a more table environment, but too much disruption can kill it. "Less complex" life seems able to adapt more quickly to more extreme changes (e.g. the much greater diversity of bacterial metabolism). Extinction events are inevitable, and environmental disruption will inevitably become more and more challenging until everything dies (though it may take a billion years), and during that time I think the trend will be for complexity to decrease.

So ultimately, I think you're overgeneralizing one phase.
public resources will inevitably be spent to support something which has no place in a city like OKC. OKR doesn't really have geologic boundaries which in turn means building out is cheaper than building up, and thus follows rent.
Well, yes. But that's one more small thing to config and manage. Not a big deal in isolation but such small things add up to significant yank.

With Tabs we wouldn't have this yet another papercut to tool over.
The point remains though that AWS is not self-hosting.
> Imagine spending 6 of your prime years in a lab doing experiments that refused to work...your hypothesis is totally wrong, etc. It is not hard to imagine a student in this situation resorting to this option, because it is barely an exaggeration to say their life depends on it.

Actually that might be ok if the system allowed just publishing the results and saying "I had this hypothesis and it didn't work, here are the experimental results".

However, the main problem is they watch others around them who bend the rules and get away with it and succeed. The system overall seems to reward cheating, so they get "on board" with it, thus perpetuation the system.

Even more, once it becomes pervasive, the standards are raised for everyone. Now those who don't cut corners, to put it very mildly, are not even able to compete. Honest works becomes impossible. The choice is either leave or start cheating.
Godot Rendering Priorities: January 2024
Yeah I tried zsh a few times and never really thought it gave me that much relative to my existing bash config.

Fish on the other hand has stuck, and I'm still discovering nifty new built in features, like the fact that if you type `kill`, you can tab-complete on process names, so like if I want to kill emacs, I can type `kill ema<tab>` and select from the following:

> kill ema
3296 (.blueman-applet) 3595 (.blueman-tray-w) 9324 (emacsclient) 9327 (emacs) 9557 (emacsql-sqlite)

If there's only one match it completes the PID for you, and of course if you start typing a PID and press tab it shows the process names along with the potential completions.

I use starship for prompt customization, which is nice because my config transfers just fine from bash over to fish.
My FW13 AMD laptop (61Wh battery) can last 11hr+, technically. If I'm doing anything other than light web browsing, that quickly drops to 8hr. If I'm watching videos, it's more like 5hr.

Unfortunately, at least on Linux, it requires quite a bit of tuning for the moment. But there are some pretty good guides.

Suspend battery life still isn't great, but it's _much_ better (with s2idle supported) on the latest-gen AMD platform.

I previously had the 11th gen Intel and... I got much better battery life than you, but it was still pretty bad.
My main reaction to it is: if you fall off that thing, you're really going to hurt yourself.

I wouldn't say that, though. I just smile. I've seen unicycles before.
Record setting skyscrapers are usually a leading indicator of a bust, since they get financed when credit is at its easiest to get and there aren’t more pressing priorities to invest in.

I think that is a far more fun way of looking at it!

But the bacteria aren't the whole story - we also have our own cells, all doing their thing and all participating (even if bacteria in us are -also- participating). We're just groups of trillions of cells all working together to keep themselves alive and reproducing.

And then we go work together with other blobs of trillions of cells, just to further that goal: survival of the cells.

These groups of cells that started working together many, many billions of generations ago, are now looking at space exploration, colonising other planets, and wondering if there are other big groups of cells on other planets.

There's no way they'd have gotten there if they'd kept living alone as single-celled organisms.

That's fun to think about.

When you buy a race car designed for a race track, the assumption is you know how to use it. You don't get any driver aids or idiot lights or dummy alarms or traction control or ABS. You are expected to know how to operate the race car effectively.

When you buy a subcompact economy car, you are not expected to be capable of much of anything, so you get a bunch of features to protect you from yourself.

You're driving the pedestrian economy car and complaining about it's pedestrian economy features. If you know what you're doing, get a race car. Otherwise, you're probably driving the right machine.
It is a decent low tech idea. It would be pretty awesome to have a sleeping nook. Even if you bring some small amount of electric heat or ventilation into the system, like repurposing an old bathroom vent fan, you could perfectly air condition just that one 8x6x5 box and let the rest of the house drop into the low 50s at night and be both comfortable and save money, then use the warmth of the day to warm the house back up for use.

Might be a fun project.
It will be ready in a few weeks. The building workflow is ready, but I need to finish the stylesheets and restructuring the chapters.
Is this a piece of legislation with a serious chance of passing?

How would something like this even be enforced?
I get yelled at a lot when I ride my eBike on our trails. They are explicitly allowed, and I don't ride like a jackwagon. Some people just love to hate. A few of my friends ride OneWheels and various other eSkate devices. They get even more hate. There's one fellow we call "not allowed", who loves to shout "NOT ALLOWED" and try to clothesline my buddies as we pass him. Luckily so far they've been faster than him but one of these days he's going to seriously hurt someone, probably himself.
They are the biggest source of racial prejudice and discrimination, from anti-white attitudes like "it's impossible to be racist to white people" to DEI policies that openly discriminate against white people.

This isn't even hidden. Advocates proudly declare: "The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination."

Perhaps this is an instance of Goodhart's law (when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure). Diversity is an excellent thing when it happens naturally as a result of equal opportunity.

But when diversity becomes the target, it inspires divisive race-based selection practices that people quite correctly fight against. That's surely a factor in the recent decline of the left.

It's not that easy, unfortunately - I'm a registered developer (for the Wii U) and to be 'enabled' for Switch development, you need to jump through a bunch of hoops including describing your previous experience with games development and so on.

The barrier for Wii U was significantly lower thanks to the 'Nintendo Web Framework', a web tech SDK that let you build games without needing to use tooling like Unity or mess around with the more complicated SDKs Nintendo provide. You didn't need prior games dev experience to get registered for that.

That said - maybe they've relaxed the criteria a bit now to give first time game devs a chance to get published on Switch.
Ansible has a great module/plugin system. It's trivial to handle complex tasks or computations in a custom module or action.
Symbolic of their trade is for me also a good explanation. Something like a guild symbol hanging on the front of their workshop.

Or perhaps they were playing dungeons and dragons and needed these multiple faced dice ;)
Of course you can override it, but is there any excuse for that default behavior? It sounds ridiculous.
Reverse it, and it becomes clear.

The teacher picks 30 numbers out of 100. Then each student (independently) picks one number. If random, that is 0.3 ^ 30. Obviously, the students are not picking random.

If I had to pick for the teacher:

multiples of 10: 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90

double digits: 11,22,33,44,55,66,77,88,99

Not sure where to go next.
I think in reality no-one rarely cares for "complete" search because you're typically trying to do the least amount of searching possible. Its easy to write a breadth first Prolog meta-interpreter in a few lines of code, but it just isnt that useful. In Prolog we use dynamic predicates and tabling to make all sorts of problems viable that wouldn't be without it. miniKanren just doesn't have the add-ons needed for broad practical use.
I mean, I had zero idea about these things at some point, it wasn't condescending in any way. There's lots of different people on HN.

Anyway, seems like you made up your mind and there's zero point debating it with you.

Hi there,

Do you think that you will move from batches to continuous production the next few years (I understand this is difficult logistics)?
If Frameworks were available with 3 day shipping, then I would be able to recommend them to people more successfully.

Also out of interest, do you mind sharing your stance (and estimates for current and future demand) for touchscreens? Presumably you're estimating low demand for this at moment since it's not a priority. Would be great to see stats on this (since at the moment it's mostly just informal discussion / passing comments in the community/forums)

Thanks in advance. Appreciate everything you've all done.

I mountain unicycle[0]. My favorite replies to "you're missing a wheel" variants are:

* It was a half off sale (to hikers)

* I took off the training wheel (to bikers, if they seem smarmy)

These days most of my responses are very positive, almost universally. 15 years ago this wasn't the case, especially on the street--lots of people yelling "FALL!" out their window to scare you, etc. I think a big part of the long term change has been "extreme sports" becoming a very broad umbrella.

Actually, tall towers have many more elevators. Usually a set of express and local elevators, because someone on the top floor should not have a ten minute journey on an elevator making all stops.

It’s why tall buildings taper as they get taller, to minimize the amount of people transported to higher floors.
I can't see any mention or implication of 'nuclear' - where do you see that?

In the late 1980's I had this VCR that would allow me to tune into over the air TV channels in the eastern US.

Being an elementary aged student poking around, I realized I could use the tuner to listen in to telephone calls somehow. Granted, I lived on a farm and there were probably only two dozen houses within a mile radius of our home; the nearest being a quarter mile away. I had a small rabbit ear antenna on the back of my CRT TV that could have been plugged into the VCR.

I don't recall the actual hardware I had.

I never figured out if I was listening to cordless phones (seems they would not be powerful enough to reach me), cell phone signals (there were few cell phones in my poor rural community I assume but I guess there could have been travelers on a nearby highway), or CB radio signals from truckers on the highway (these seemed like mundane person to person conversations; not trucker conversations). Perhaps it could have been long distance HAM operators though they didn't seem to use any HAM protocols while speaking.
You make a good point about "Y/n" being more dangerous than refusing and requiring an explicit option be passed.

The clear warning about what commits will be lost is not at all how I remember force-push working.

That said, I usually use magit in emacs for git and understand the force options well, so I haven't actually looked at the standard push failure warning in years. Maybe I'm remembering wrong, or perhaps it's been improved in recent versions.

Painting all conservatives with the same brush as "ultra conservative" (whatever that means) is disingenuous. Idiots abound in all walks of life. Better to judge individuals than to judge a whole group by the actions of a few.

Really, it reads like you need to talk to more real people. If I were to watch videos of blue haired liberals all day I might get the impression that all liberals are that way. That just isn't true. It is an extreme that is not representative of the group as a whole. The liberal/conservative line isn't as distinct as media makes it out to be. Most people hold views that belong in both camps.
What anti-features do Debian's maintainers remove from Firefox, in practice? (Meaning the one they've already been maintaining for a while, a firefox-esr package. There's also an upcoming one for the normal release cadence).

edit: Answering my own question,

https://wiki.debian.org/Firefox#Disabling_automatic_connecti... ("Here is a table of the above parameters and how Debian diverges from the upstream default:")

Looks to me like a fairly small, unimportant delta.

If you need a daughterboard and an SSD to get away from SD cards then yeah it's going to get expensive. Maybe find an SBC family that likes to use eMMC?

This would be the sixth tallest building in the world. How many of the five above it meet your criteria?

This building would become a major tourist attraction. Will the leases and other income generated by the building be enough to pay off the bankers? If so, then it will likely be built.
Not sure if you're talking about starship or fish, but starship is by far my favorite prompt customization tool, regardless of what language it's written in. It works across bash, zsh, fish, and others, so you can pretty easily get the same prompt in any shell on your system. It's easy to tweak as needed, but is pretty great out of the box.
I noticed a few people on forums posting that this happened to them a few days ago. That suggests to me it's more than a handful of people because I've never seen anyone post this before.

Apple as far as I know has always respected your update settings, so at this point I don't think it's intentional. But obviously this shouldn't be happening.

I run Sonoma on my Official Macs, but I also have a Hackintosh on Ventura that has not upgraded.
It wouldn’t be, unless they can get the Supreme Court to narrow the first amendment on obscenity again, which may be possible. Which would then just be the beginning of a new game about where that line is in a predictable way.
Seven Heretical Questions About Progress
There’s no individual psychology at play here. It’s not a conversation between peers. This person is already in the out-group by bringing this subject up at all. They have no institutional power. It’s not as if they just have to act like an adult and file some paperwork to get this fixed. They need to make a lot of noise to embarrass people who do have power into asking those awkward questions. Being tweetable (X-able?) also makes it more likely those volatile young people will hear about it before they join the lab.
One thing to consider with a C corp in the US is that it could qualify for QSBS tax benefits. Basically if the resulting entity remains under 50MM in assets and you hold the stock for five years, capital gains can be reduced, to 100% in some cases. There's a variety of restrictions, notably it must be a C corp, not an LLC nor an S Corp (unclear to me whether a C corp which converted from an LLC would qualify).

Nominally an LLC will give you basic financial liability shielding but I'm finding whatever advantages there were of an LLC wash away if I start having to do multi state (US) business since I have to file for foreign LLC qualification in each state.

Agreed that cars are way more dangerous than bikes, but here in California I do see a lot of aggressive recreational cyclists that act like they have a chip on their shoulder. While they may not be a danger by crashing into things like cars do, their behavior does cause sometimes dangerous issues for other people on the road.

Just because it's not a standard size does not mean it's not a measuring device. Angles, Pythagorean helper tool, construction of archways... We have so many modern tools that come in lots of sizes.
In my US based upbringing, men making jokes at the expense of other men are either aggression or ways of building rapport, and context matters to decipher which it is. I have male friends who take as much opportunity as possible to turn something I’ve said or done into a joke, sarcastically or sometimes trollishly, and I’ll do the same. This mocking isn’t malicious however.
I also don’t follow that stuff too closely, but yeah, those examples are exactly why Boeing doesn’t stop making commercial airplanes and completely pivot to defense contracting.

You _can_ make money hand over fist working with the US military, but winning giant money printing contracts is easier said than done. It’s a super volatile industry that Boeing unsurprisingly limits their exposure to.

Discussing anything related to the US military on HN can be frustrating, and the recent surge of “Boeing only really cares about their cash cow, defense” comments is no different.
USA is a large country with many schools. The schools outside of California are good too. So why would you seek schools in some of the most expensive neighborhoods in the country? I’ve worked with immigration processes before and demonstrating some self sufficiency is gonna be important - perhaps try a less expensive state (such as Texas) and prepare to work while a student, which student visa allows and is fairly common here?

> Getting the latest version with features and security fixes is key to having a good experience whenever you use Firefox. Now, our new APT repository is directly connected to the Firefox release process, so you will receive the latest updates whenever we make them available. Tip: you will still need to restart Firefox for the latest version.

In the past when I've installed Firefox through a .deb, it has had this annoying habit of requiring me to restart my browser whenever it updates in the background. I'll be going about my day and all of the sudden every URL will redirect me to about:restartrequired [0] and I'll have to shut everything down to keep going.

It's not clear from this announcement if they've fixed that or not. If they haven't, I'll probably just continue to install Firefox from the .tar.gz files they provide [1]. If you drop them in a directory you have write permissions to, Firefox can auto-update itself the same way it does on Windows, without any forced interruptions.
