Parking lot requirements make sense in areas where cars are the only viable means of transportation. Removing those requirements only makes sense when other forms of transportation are provided to reduce the number of cars required to get people to the places of business.

Near me, the city is talking about removing a big parking lot and strip mall and turning it into a mixed use space, but as far as I’ve read there has been no talk of transportation. The area sits at the intersection of two stroads. It’s technically walkable, but it’s not a pleasant walk. It’s technically can be biked, but not without competing with cars for space on the road. There might be buses, but they are very infrequent and slow. Everyone I know would want to drive, as the alternatives are significantly worse than driving. If people can’t park, they simply won’t go.

I’d love to get rid of my car, but that requires the city, and region, make significant investments in public transit infrastructure. The non-car option can’t just be available for those who are willing to put in a lot of effort to avoid using a car. The non-car options need to be better than the car option. Easier, cheaper, safer, and more pleasant.

Removing parking lots makes driving worse, but doesn’t make the alternatives better.

Yeah, we should make it clearer that the web app is not supported on mobile devices. You can get the app and then it should work way smoother.

We currently have a bug in the homescreen which should be resolved in the next update and you should no longer need to close & re-open the app to get the next conversation.

In brief, Music Neighbourhood is a pretty visualisation that connects artists with a high ‘similarity score’, allowing you to dynamically move from artist to artist, exploring their connections. Similarity score is a system that uses listener data to find similar artists, based on listener data, which has already seen use in our Fresh Releases and the LB Radio beta.

Music Neighbourhood also has a few other interesting things under the hood - for instance, it makes use of ‘Huesound’ to dynamically change colours based on the artist’s top album art.

Why is this of interest to hackernews? As with everything MetaBrainz creates, this is open-source, and we would love to see Music Neighbourhood, or elements of it, pulled into other projects or hacked into something new! The depth of MusicBrainz and ListenBrainz data allows for a lot of expansion on the concept - for instance, exploring based on genre, popularity, or listeners, and different ways of presenting clusters and datapoints. We expect to keep building on Music Neighbourhood ourselves, time allowing, as well.
Sure, but the proof of looking is in the clicking. The threat scenario I'm describing here is "looked at the ad long enough for the headset to interpret it as wanting to click on it".
It depends on the case.

If it is in regards to shareholders, then I believe the state in which you're incorporated would have jurisdiction.

If it's another type of case, for example one brought by an employee, it might be based on the employment laws of the state they are employed in, so the trial would happen in the state of their employment.

I got a iPhone 14 for a backup satellite sos method.

In Canada there are 100s of km of roads between towns with zero cellphone service, often for hours at a time. Having space based communication in a cellphone to fall back on would be extreme valuable and life saving to many. I know I already pay a bundle for it and many of my outdoorsy friends do the same. I can be driving to a friends house a few hours away and be out of signal for half of it, being able to call for help if I encounter or get into an accident is pretty important and building cell towers would be far more expensive then some satellites

From the IllustrisTNG[1] cosmological simulation project:

> Formation of a single galaxy "g3", tracked through time from high redshift until the present day. This relatively "average" TNG50 galaxy will be just slightly less massive than our own Milky Way at z=0. We include a large-scale view (lower left), and zoomed in views of the central gas and stellar structures (lower right), while the main panel shows projected gas density. At z=1.5 we pause and rotate around the system, showing in order: gas metallicity, gas velocity field, and H-alpha luminosity, before continuing. What is a small dwarf at high redshift (108.3 solar masses in stars at z=4) transitions, at late times, into a large stable disk with a quasi-steady star formation rate of a few solar masses per year.

Some of the windows will be obscured by others. If you stream a 100 windows to visionOS, it's possible to lay them out so that none of them cover each other and you have to render them all. On a flat screen there is a limit to how many pixels you need to paint.

I was one of those nerds! I equally loved it and loathed it. Some very cool software available, but as a cellphone-like experience, it was neither one thing nor the other. Most of the time I had a feature-phone as a daily-driver alongside the clunky early Windows stuff. Wasn't a bad compromise as I didn't want or need the power of Pocket PC/Windows Mobile 24/7, but it was however a fairly expensive one!

People also forget that using a stylus with a touchscreen made it a pretty crappy phone, and they weren't ergonomic to hold up to your face with a lot of the larger PDA-like ones. The Windows devices with sliding keyboards were pretty decent as a compromise in terms of size and features though. But boy were they expensive in the UK at the time as they were generally imports from the USA.

Moto X (2013) was the device I intended to describe. You are right on both counts. I think I conflated the second gen closure of the US-based plant with the acquisition in my memory. And I'm now remembering that the real reason I was so disappointed is that the Moto X (2013) was a phone that you could operate the entirety of the screen one handed. With the Moto X (2014) you could not.

I have an iPhone mini now, but it's still not small enough to 100% operate one-handed, at least not without grip adjustments. The Moto X wasn't quite a flagship phone, but it came close enough. I can't even find a properly one-handed phone anymore

> To begin a software startup before AWS launched in 2006, a founder needed to purchase and set up servers, then operate them. This required thousands of dollars, and weeks to launch a website. But with a cloud provider, all that was needed was a credit card, and a founder could have a website up and running in minutes, for only a few dollars.

Nonsense. colo was very cheap and fast, took minutes or an hour tops to set up. And most startups needed something like webhosting or Ruby/Python hosting, both available.

AWS added speed to scale and being lazy with performance.

Revising caps lock makes perfect sense since it's obsolete.

The backspace key has been at the location it is (far right of number row) for well over 100 years. Indeed its placement preceeds the existence of the Return key, as prior to the IBM Electric (1935) and similar, typewriters had a manual carriage return bar. That's a century of keyboards and muscle memory that you're trying to undo.

As a touch typist, any keyboard that moved the backspace key would be awful. Still better than the ergonomic nightmare that is the ISO european keyboard.
> I'm struggling to see how somebody on their own could come up with a non-trivial scientific result that was meaningful in any way.

Richard Feynman at 67, partaking in an inquiry into the space shuttle challenger disaster, dunked some pieces of rubber, taken from a model of the challenger, in ice cold water and observed that they lacked springiness. The full story is fascinating. Other simple, non-rigorous experiments he performed also had meaning and whether they were “non-trivial” is nothing to do with science, that’s political nonsense.

There’s a lot of examples of individuals performing simple experiments that are meaningful.

There's an example here of using Numba to speed up data science code, (disclaimer, I'm the author): https://sidsite.com/posts/python-corrset-optimization/

> for most "normal" uses, you'd probably be fine with having your code written in numpy or pandas

In my experience this is the case. Occasionally though, there might be an bottleneck, and Numba can be a good way to handle it. E.g. when implementing seam carving, I found normal Python / NumPy too slow, and same with Naive Bayes, so used Numba. (Why was I implementing these, instead of using a library? As an exercise. But I guess the takeaway is that if you want to do something more intensive, and are implementing it yourself rather than using a library, Numba can be a good option).
> I have no problem showing ID to my local bank though

Me neither. But they normalized this behavior when moving to mobile apps for netbanks by requiring people to photograph their IDs and take selfies for KYC.

After all this KYC stuff, photographing personal documents became normal and then many other big tech companies started requiring this stuff. I think even Facebook started asking people to send pictures of IDs to verify accounts.
I know phone companies in EU started doing this.

I still refuse doing it for all these trivial services and it has a real cost in that it prevents me from using several services. At some point I will probably have to do it.

In my country, we recently had a real estate agency who got hacked and had all their KYC stuff exposed and sold for ID theft. It is a huge mess.
The company then reached out to all the persons that were affected by mail telling them that this happened and that they should contact them immediately.
So I contacted them. First step when contacting them was them requiring to prove my identity by sending photo of my personal ID again. Yeah, fool me once....

What makes you continue to try all the VR headsets if they keep sitting in a drawer at the end of the day (honest question)?

When I see comments like this, and there seem to be many, I can’t help but think VR is a technology in search of a problem. With every platform Apple has launched they show the problem it will solve for customers and I just don’t see that here, and really haven’t seen it with any VR headset, at least not enough to overcome the downsides.

I can’t help but think of this video of Steve Jobs… “you’ve got to start with the customer experience and work backward to the technology. You can’t start with the technology and try to figure out where you’re going to try and sell it.”

I'm going to disagree here. Looking just at tech, it's possible to have huge compensation and still exploitative working conditions, like unofficial expectations of unlimited overtime and being available 24/7 and putting up with abuse from others in the company.

Rachelbythebay wrote about this in 2018: https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2018/09/08/visa/ if your company decides they don't want you anymore, you have _ten days_ to get a new sponsored job or be out of the country. If you're being bullied or harassed or otherwise treated badly and your employer knows full well they can have you kicked out of the country in under two weeks, would you really speak up?

True, but the elite class that’s currently profiting from and in control of said country would devastate themselves if they dare. Skepticism about the wests self-inflicted dependency on China is at an all time high. Terms like "on-" or "friend-shoring" are already coming up now.

But that can also change pretty quick if they feel like their back is against the wall, you’re not wrong in that regard

It doesn't seem like a 'problem'. For new tech, the emphasis should always be on pro users first (even if they don't initially adopt it because of the long lead times for those industries). So if you're designing an oil rig with these, a pro user would probably want to be able to independently interact with an element while looking for the next element since that's more time-efficient. Seems like a better term might be the 'Midas Touch Axiom'.

I am very surprised that many here don't understand the great power and value of custom GPTs: They give you access to online APIs combined with pre-configured custom prompts and a compute sandbox!

You can query databases, trigger events and handle the results smartly.

Now that OpenAi added the @ sign to talk to your preselected custom GPTs you can just use different APIs like slack colleges:

@downloader get the data from test.tsv
@sql create table according to tsv header
@sql insert data
@admin open mysql port

One thing to keep in mind is that even though custom gpts have access to a local sandbox file system, passing data around almost always involves GPT handling the data which becomes forbidding for any large token stream.

One critique that I share is the stupid branding "costume GPTs" and lack of discoverability: If you search the GPT store for wolfr you do not get wolfram alpha as completion! It only appears when you type
wolfra

Also it can't display any images other than dalle fantasies or pyplots which is a slightly annoying limitation, but familiar to users of other shells like bash.
