They (Hamas) broke the first temporary cease fire several times. I highly doubt their sincerity.

Most people do, and techies/HN people are people.
This feels different. I would say there is a distinct lack of self-sufficiency, where previous generations would take eager interest in how stuff worked, take things apart, etc. Gen Z seem to be professional consumers. I blame the expansion of social media and the proliferation of smartphones for this. Why care how technology works when you can be YouTube famous? Why raise a family or become a doctor or lawyer or engineer when you can just show your tits on OnlyFans and be rich? Half these people don't know how to boil hot dogs. Why learn when you can pull out your phone and order Uber Eats?

Do I blame them? No, because the previous generation created this technology, the digital rope they hang themselves with.
This is literally the point of a lot of open source software... Sometimes its "hey i wrote this for me, here it is incase you stumble across it and find it useful". Sometimes it's "hey here's this thing i did that i find cool, y'all wanna work with me to improve it?". Sometimes its "look what I can do here's the code you can too!". Sometimes its even "Do you all think this approach has promise?".

In fact very few open source projects are big and professional like Linux. Most are just things people do out of interest or fun.

Let's call it "recycling theater" like we do for security. Maybe there were good intentions at one point but so much of it seems like marketing now.

Most cities only have a few collection spots. It would make way more sense to try to separate the trash at the trash location than asking millions of individual people to try to do it correctly, 30% of which can't do it correctly, 30% of which don't care. I'm not sure I've ever seen a single trash can that has 100% of the correct trash in it, even at a FAANMG company that claims to hire the best and brightest.

Then you get ambiguous things like plastic coated paper, marked with a recycle symbol. Or cardboard milk cartons with a plastic cap and plastic infused cardboard (or is it wax?)

Sure, maybe you're supposed to cut the cap part out but lots of people don't know, can't be bothered, won't do it.

If you want this to actually be effective you really need to do it in as few places as possible, the trash collection companies, where a few inspectors can make sure it's being done correctly and a few reporters can check

Twisol's point that you failed to find is that you could choose to give AndrewKemendo the benefit of the doubt.

Clearly there is something novel about the way Dijistra thought and worked. Most of us don't do things that way - formulate our thinking, then work towards one perfect first draft.

AndrewKemendo saw that and said "I identify, I'm the same way", and tried to describe what his way of thinking sounds like.

If to you it sounds like the exact way of thinking and problem solving as yours or mine, well, then perhaps AndrewKemendo did not describe it well enough. Perhaps it's impossible to describe it to someone else. But the necessary context to his description is that his brain works different from yours or mine. So the short textual description also means something different than what it does for you and me.

Is there the possibility that AndrewKemendo is self-grandiose and not aware that he is not special and his verbose descriptions of his unique way of thinking are nothing but? Sure. But even if we had no other evidence that this is not the case, it would cost you nothing to be curious and assume best intention. But we do have other evidence - and it's in the first line - "There’s no other way to do it for this type of a brain. I know because I have the same type of brain."

In most places you can't just put a trench and an electrical box through public spaces. I'd also worry about someone stealing electricity from me. Double the voltage is hopefully ok on the extension cord- just don't be tempted to run higher current. Extension cords are also not recommended for permanent usage.

I don't think the OP was worried about people who have the ability to dig a trench and install underground wiring to a reserved spot in a "car parking area". I suppose it's not technically having a garage but it sure feels like it in spirit.

Lets be honest, the world needs these unpaid labors for it to properly function. Had he not have them the past few decades, we would be living in proprietary hell and productivity would drop significantly.

The way I see OSS funding situation is something like this: My Ferrari is broke so I was languishing on the side of the road when a poor mechanic with shabby clothes was walking by. He fixed my car and when I asked for a payment, he said "Its all good!". "Oh really!?" I said, as I turn of my voice recorder and drive off into the sunset.

Of course I am completely in the right here, he did say he didn't need any compensation and it was all recorded (or in writing). But I can't help but feel some humanity is missing here.
The main difference is really that English writes compounds with a space in between whereas German doesn't. There's no way to express compounds like "pedestrian crossing" or "windshield wiper" with a space in German. When a compound gets frequent enough in English people will stop writing the space (like "windshield") whereas in German the space was never there to begin with.

> had gains of 98% in 2008, in the middle of an economic meltdown

Medallion does not act on its own or any human sentiment. It is a black box trading strategy that looks for signals. It's not aurprise that during downturns, the overall market is incredibly inefficient. Medallion makes money off of the market's inefficiencies. I don't know what that has to donwith internal vs external investors though.

> How come they figured it out for one single fund, but aren't able to make any alternative strong strategies except the secret and closed one?

I dislike responding to a question with a question, but why would that work? Medallion has made several people billionaires and has done so incredibly quickly. Trying to replicate it with the same strategy will just step on its toes.

It helps to understand Medallion. It is a massive statistical trading system that places a huge amount of bets across all markets, like all of them, and hopes to win say 51% of the bets. When it reaches a certain size, they cap it by taking off all money above the cap and returning it to investors. You can't add more money to Medallion and keep its performance up. It moves the market too much and degrades its positions.

> but we need to get as many of the hostages back as possible

And how many hostages has the war gotten back so far?

> we cannot allow Hamas to continue ruling Gaza

There is no realistic plan for ending Hamas. The more Hamas fighters you kill the more Gazans join. You can take temporary control of the government, but Isarelis in Gaza and anyone who works with them will be targeted by terrorists until the end of time. Eventually israel will get sick of the attacks and pull out, and Hamas will immediately regain control of the government.

The obvious end game here is a return to the pre october 7th status quo with increased border security to ensure oct. 7th doesnt happen again. When will we admit that the hostages can not be saved and move to that end game?
If I'm not mistaken, rechargeable AA batteries are 1.2 volts not 1.5. That might not be enough for this device. And in any case rechargable AA batteries do not last as long as the same volume of an 18650.
The current word on the street is iOS has a daemon that checks Wi-Fi, cell carrier, and GPS data to determine if the user's in the EEA or not, specifically so they can gate these profit-diminishing features to the minimum possible jurisdiction.

A few years back I did some back-of-the-envelope calculations on lifting stuff off the moon. At the time there was a company offering $200k/kg to lunar orbit, $1.2M/kg to the lunar surface. The Δv to climb back up is pretty much the same as the descent so I would expect the cost ratio to be similar: Thus $7.2M/kg returned to lunar orbit. At the time I wasn't concerned with going farther, but the escape/injection burn is about half the launch burn--thus you're looking at something like $17M/kg not counting the heat shield and chute (numbers I can't even back-of-the-envelope.)

How many objects are worth $17M/kg?

Unfortunately that's not good enough for Israel. If they give Palestinians sovereignty and give up their security control it would only take a small group to commit terrorist attacks against Israel, so they wont do it unless theyre very confident that no one is Palestine will want to do that.
This is a dupe discussed yesterday https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39138755
I don't know why people are arguing with you. Clearly the question here is whether you think, then type, or type while you think.

I can type at >100 WPM (just tested). I recently had to write a 3-page document for work, the summary of weeks of research and interviewing. It wound up 1959 words (just checked). I wrote it over the course of one 8 hour day, after having procrastinated on it for the previous 2 days.

I came home at the end of that day exhausted because I felt like I finally did weeks of work in one day.

But, this 8 hour day had 2 hours of meetings and 1 hour for lunch. Say another 1 hour for random slacking. So pure concentrated writing was 4 hours or 240 minutes, which winds up to about 8 words per minute. That's it!

And I would consider this fairly fast, and again I'm not including the 2 days where I tried to write the doc at various times but failed to get started. SOMETHING was spinning in my brain in the background getting the ideas clarity.

Rolling releases are always going to have more problems than stable and tested releases. This is sinply mathematical and statistical fact.

For a new switching user choosing stable Ubuntu-based distro is the best choice. It has the best software support, the best informational support (distro articles, googling problems), the best quality (because of the popularity).

I am using Mint since 2014 and I am still using the same install of 9 years ago. I update software packages whenever. With big OS updates that come twice a year I wait just in case for 2 extra months and update to that new version. 9 years and counting.

And now imagine an Arch user and how many times something would break during 9 years of operation... It is very telling when discussing this topic and Arch users use arguments like "Arch doesn't really break that much" without truly realizing what others hear and notice. "THAT much", Karl!..

This is what got a company I worked at several years ago. It cost hundreds of thousands of dollars just to have everything reviewed to be sent off to the government agency investigating us. We ended up settling for about a quarter of what it would have cost us to fight them in an actual court trial just because we were a large pile of money in before we even got near a trial and they abused their position and knowing our cash position to low ball us on settlement and force us into a settlement so they could save some face. The whole experience made it pretty obvious most of these agencies should be mostly gutted and rebuilt.

The tinySA can also be used for that, it's not only a spectrum analyzer, it can also generate signals and optionally modulate those for you.

edit: https://tinysa.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Specification here says it works from 100kHz for the low output. When I just tried it did let me select 60kHz and turn it into output mode. Haven't hooked it up to a scope to see what it does. Sorry no time to set it all up now.
60kHz is very low though, if you browse AliExpress then I'm sure plenty of signal generators will offer that for a really low price (cheaper than the tinySA)

edit 2: Sorry my European brain kicked in and missed you are looking for a 60Hz one that is very precise and not a 60kHz one. I'd better get some sleep.
I have nothing against people who simply leave their stuff open to the public in case it might be useful.
