Another example:

In the Netherlands the Dutch Supreme Court provides parliament with a shortlist of 6 people.
The Dutch parliament then makes a short list of 3 people based on that list. Traditionally the first three people on the 6 person list by the Dutch Supreme Court.

This 3 person list is then offered to the Dutch government who then appointments one of them, traditionally the first one on the list, as a Supreme Court judge.

In the entire history only once did the Dutch parliament deviate from the Supreme Court’s 6 person shortlist and only once did the Dutch government deviate from the parliament’s 3 person shortlist.

So in practice it’s the Supreme Court who chooses who should join them, none of the judges are elected officials.

Lower court judges aren’t elected either, like say, in the US.

Neither are prosecutors for that matter.

In general these are all merit based appointments, not unlike your average job application, just with more ceremony.
> More people are turning to a diabetes medication to induce weight loss — but experts say it’s not a miracle drug.

It may as well be a miracle drug given the alternatives. Before Ozempic, long term weight loss without surgery was essentially impossible on a population level (some do achieve it, but not many). You had obesity doctors raving about half of patients with "intensive lifestyle intervention" losing 5% of their weight and keeping it off [0]. A quarter made it to 10% loss.

While they may find this "heartening", losing 5% of weight when you are fat enough to go to an obesity doctor is hardly a resounding success at getting people fully healthy again. You need about 20% at least to get from obese to a normal weight.

Ozempic is delivering 15-20%.

Why Postgres? DuckDB is column-based and Postgres is row-based. For analytics workloads, I’m having a hard time thinking of a scenario where Postgres wins in terms of performance.

If your data is too big to fit into DuckDB, consider Clickhouse, which is also column-based and understands standard SQL.
This [0] is the closest we have so far - almost entirely FLOSS, and it consumes ~1/4 (IIRC) the power of the stock firmware.

It's also never going to be the default Pine64 ships with, because no OEM wants to tell the FCC "We asked the users nicely not to send erroneous signals. No, this was not lab-tested, nor verified by the FCC to not interfere with other devices."

Considering the legal limitations, I think this is an absolutely amazing point to have gotten to. OP may have issues, but he mentioned even his Android handset had similar issues. I have a pretty good carrier (for a carrier), amd have pretty well no issues using my Pinephone Pro as my actual smartphone. I just carry a spare battery :)

The original Macintosh Portable[1] seems like a pretty high quality machine all the way through:

Reflective active matrix LCD screen (fast response, no ghosting), full-travel mechanical keyboard, movable trackpad, built-in floppy and hard drives, expansion slots, all-day battery life. And an attractive and clever industrial design (note the cutouts for left-handed or right-handed trackball placement.)

Fantastic design for someone who didn't mind a bulky, 16-pound "portable". ;-)

In 2024, portable Macs are better in nearly every way (including battery life) but the keyboards aren't nearly as nice, and the screens aren't great in broad daylight (unlike a reflective LCD.)

(And didn't Apple subsequently invent the "palm rest" laptop design where you move the keyboard back toward the screen?[2])

Are you sure you didn't just Google up the Lisp Curse and use it as an excuse to avoid engaging what was mostly idiomatic Clojure?

Rampant metaprogramming is not that common in Lisp codebases, and what of there is will tend to be pretty shallow, like bits of syntactic sugar here and there.

Do you have some example of the inscrutable metaprogramming?

Obvious solution: incentivize people to charge their EV at work!

I bet plenty of businesses would be more than willing to equip their parking lot with chargers given the right tax incentive. Have the electricity company give out charging cards so that EV charging can be combined with your residential power bill, and add a 5-9 Duck Curve Discount. Make the charging speed electricity company controlled for additional demand shifting possibilities.

A little bit of column a, a little bit of column b.

There are industries where sales reps are paid only on commission. The advantage to the company is simple: you don't pay anything to sales reps who don't sell anything. That's where the commission system came from. So, some of this is historical, and, yes the metrics are really obvious. At least the core revenue metric is. But, that's a lagging indicator of performance -- there are endless debates about the leading indicators of sales performance, and none of those are nearly so clear.

Second, most people aren't any good at sales and aren't ever going to be good at sales. The performance distribution is as close to a Pareto distribution as I've ever seen. The sales reps you want -- the ones that bring in 80% of the revenue -- certainly are motivated by "incentive alignment." Actually, they're motivated by being paid enormous sums of money, and they know that if you won't pay them, the competition will.

Third, the sales reps have more leverage than many back-office workers in that their work is very fungible. Or, at least, sales rep believe and act as if they have a lot of leverage. They don't go to school for years or develop deep domain expertise that might not translate to a competitor. They'll happily take their skills elsewhere if they feel there is a better opportunity secure in the knowledge that if you can sell widget a, then you can also sell widget b.

Rclone can also mount cloud storage to local disk, especially nice from kubernetes. Write/read speed isn't the fastest when using as a drive with lots of files in the same folder, but a quick and easy way to utilize cloud storage for projects

It can also e2e encrypt locations, so everything you put into the mounted drive is getting written encrypted to Dropbox folder /foo, for example. Nice, because Dropbox and other providers like s3 don't have native e2e support yet

All in all, Rclone is great! One of those tools that is good to have on hand, and solves so many usecases

What do you use?

> nighttime ventilation and daytime closure

I do that, it works very well (though depending on the house, of course), but I'm surprised I don't see it as standard advice for homeowners. Even better, an input at a cool spot (near shady grass, etc.), and output with an exhaust fan at the top; auto open/close based on thermostats outside and inside.

> In winter, we heat to a more comfortable target for a few hours in early morning and after dusk.

Is the early morning heat for efficiency somehow (or just it's too chilly when you wake up after an unheated night).

-

Also: Our perception is of it being colder when it's colder outside, despite the thermostat being set to the same temperature - that is, we need to set the thermostat a bit higher to not feel chilled. I wonder if our perception of temperature depends on something like the coldest (micro-)draft more than the ambient average.
Fair enough. But they have done a fantastic job educating me about propositional logic, set theory, Turing Machines, algorithm design, etc. - actual computer science - and the theoretical side of software engineering.

My point is that this education alone would not have been sufficient to prepare me to be a productive junior developer building a website with a team of 10.

However, they are much more useful to me now, working towards very senior technical roles later in my career.

Maybe they shouldn’t have gone with an in-house design.

> it would seem foolish to limit the system to internal customers only.

My understanding from working with similar HPC systems is that public use cases are likely niche and many tasks don’t benefit from the sort of fast interconnect their setup gives them. If anything being quite public about their design was meant to allow other companies to copy their design and compete with nvidia on a united front perhaps.

It’s not really as versatile as AWS, GCP are to profitably work as a compute cloud provider though. Perhaps it could be a provider for other companies who don’t want to own their hardware to do training runs on.
Sure, why not? How hard is it to change "iOS" to "iPadOS"? And to hedge their bets. It's a mostly meaningless change that has let them claim it's distinct from iOS. They could tell where the winds were blowing.
I mean, there's something to be said for letting kids get away with shit.

The old version of "actions not having consequences" was not getting caught. It can be enriching to rebel a little and get away with stuff. A lot of people grow into perfectly healthy adults and look back fondly on the stunts they pulled. Personally, I don't want my kids using any drugs but I don't think the answer is to put cameras in their rooms or supervising every play date until they're 26.

Perhaps the sensible solution is to make sure there is no system where children are getting legal charges for drug use. What an incredibly stupid system. They're kids. They are supposed to be making mistakes and learning from them in low-impact environments until they're old enough to be more responsible for their actions.

I am not surprised that kids have moved their social lives online.

From the article, I don't see Mozilla saying they don't want to comply with the technical requirements, just that they don't want to maintain two versions of Firefox for iOS (one Webkit, one Gecko).

I am for choice of people to decide if they have kids. These arguments have no effect on me.

Using 2MB or 1GB pages on Windows involves changing security settings, rebooting the machine, and immediately launching the app you care about as administrator. If you ever close it, you'll need to reboot again, because Windows will not try to rearrange 4KB pages to create new contiguous aligned physical 2MB or 1GB regions to back future requests for huge pages.

I use rclone daily. It's replaced sshfs for some cases. Another is to push home server $Archive share to rsync.net. another is to pull photos into $Archive from my Google account, my wife's, moms, dads, and kids account.

It's also a trivial way to set up an ad-hoc ftp server which serves either local or cloud storage. e.g. my Pi4 runs an rclone ftp server which exposes my dropbox to the rest of my intranet, and a separate ftp server which my networked printer can save scans to. The same machine uses rclone to run automated backups of cloud storage for my household and a close friend. rclone is a godsend for my intranet.
"Your methodology probably has an error [because you got the wrong answer]" is not meaningfully different from "we're rejecting your paper because it's false". My point stands.

Ed: your other comment about how publishers used to just be mailing lists is actually kind of funny in how it proves my point. If we wanted publishing to just be a mailing list... we can just have a mailing list. Or use Arxiv. But today's publishers have to at least pretend to do better than that, which they mostly do by supposedly filtering papers on quality, which in turn is, you guessed it, 80% veracity checks (oh, and also increasing the right people's citation counts).
It's a question of volume of crap. Just because garbage makes it through the filter doesn't mean the filter isn't doing anything.

As for asking working scientists, working scientists were warning caution during the LK-99 debacle partially by reminding people that it hadn't even been published yet.

I would agree for different reasons. Software Eng. takes on a different meaning in the industry... unfortunately for some reason, because it seems to be somewhat different in other engineering fields. I think most companies hiring SEs really mean Product Engineers, or even Business Engineers (which I haven't heard but that title would make more sense). Therefore Comp Sci does not focus on any of the business aspects that are needed and expected for a career in most software companies.

There are two potential solutions, either Comp. Sci. starts teaching more of the business side, or create a new track for students that is called something like Software Product Engineering. That way CS students would continue on towards research in academia and other highly specialized roles, while the masses are trained on the relevant techcnical parts plus all the knowledge that is expected to create profit from software.

So I see this type of headline happen a lot, and despite being a long time reader and short time commenter, is there a reason the author doesn't make a more specific headline? Rclone has existed forever and has been mentioned here over a thousand times (https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=rclone+...)

Most of the time the poster links to a specific news item at least (which is also not okay without a specific headline) but sometimes the link just points to the home page.

Regardless, it has been mentioned before.

EDIT: Just to be clear, I'm not again an occasional mention of a project. Hacker news has allowed me to find some real gems, but most of those posts are new features added to the software, not just a generic link to the homepage.
