> But Apple has managed to pack the power of a Mac, plus the performance of a new dedicated AR chip, into a computer that you can wear on your face.

The M2 chip, like any modern SoC, can easily heat up enough to burn skin under powerful workloads.

"The power of a Mac" is misleading; does this mean a Macbook Air (constrained cooling means a tighter thermal, and thus performance, envelope), a Macbook Pro (better cooling = better performance), or a Mac Mini (best cooling = best performance)?

Given the facial proximity and battery, I expect we'll never see that M2 at full power.

Car accidents are going up in part because some police departments simply do not have the budget to do traffic enforcement. I lived in a big city, and the police didn't have the manpower to fight crime and traffic enforcement. As a result, fatal car crashes were very common.

This is interesting. I had always heard that removing a tree’s bark, even just a ring around the trunk, would kill it, as it could no longer get nutrients up to the rest of the tree.

I just watched this to try and get a better idea. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YnnbuoeQFSI

Would it be correct to say the cork is a protective layer over the part of the tree that does that nutrient transport, and most trees don’t allow for this kind of separation? Or maybe the average person just isn’t knowledgeable and skilled enough to make the distinction when removing bark?

On a side note, I’m happy to see cork is harvested sustainably and Portugal has such long standing laws in place to protect it. Many years ago I heard wines were moving away from cork because the world was going to run out, and it seemed like plastic and synthetic cork was becoming more popular in cheaper wine. Lately I’ve been seeing cork more often, so either we were lied to years ago, or something changed. Either way, I’m happy to see the change. I’ve always thought cork was a pretty cool material.

Just as everyone in the Tour de France was doping during the Lance Armstrong era, the concentration of cheaters increases the higher up the "success" metrics you go.

I help at a fire academy in PA, and I can thankfully say at least we are teaching the latest from NIST, which recommends NOT applying PPV to a building fire. The material says that's just adding ventilation to a ventilation limited fire, accelerating flashover.

Also there's tons of discussion and practice around controlling doors and always keeping them closed to suffocate and contain the fire as much as possible. I've been pretty pleased with seeing that taught, although a lot of places haven't seemed to adopt these new recommended methods.

I was just posting in another comment that I remember all kinds of warning about the world running out of cork, which led to wines shipping with plastic or synthetic corks. The general thought, at least from the things I heard, was only really good wine had a real cork, as the cheap ones couldn’t afford it.

Hopefully this isn’t some kind of Mandela effect. I don’t think it is.

The macbook air has no active cooling. I would expect this machine to have better thermals.
Yeah, I agree with this. Ultimately the danger is that right to try essentially leads patients to deny proven methods of treatment due to coercion or being misled. If a patient refuses the usual cancer treatment and demands instead a regime of herbs and folk medicine, how do you handle that? Especially when the family then turns around and blames you.

In this scenario where you have an expert in their field knowing that the outcome for the experimental treatment could make things far worse but is willing to contribute the data to further the field anyways I think the answer is far easier to parse.
In my case, it was just code running on a single cloud instance. For someone a bit upstream from me, it could have been a commercially made device doing its stuff, with the details being trade secrets of its manufacturer.

Computers have made science boring to watch. Many things are now automated and run 24/7. Even if you happen to be on site, there may not be much to see.

In many situations, automation also makes doing things on your own easier than trying to determine if someone has already done similar experiments. If you are doing exploratory work, there is often no established terminology for the topic. Even if a report of prior experiments exists, it can be difficult to determine if it's discussing the same thing. (AI could plausibly help here.)

Ask HN: How to Deal with Revenge Bedtime Procrastination?
I seem to have gotten caught up with this bad habit, after completing my daily tasks I just can't get myself to go to sleep directly before spending and hour or two on the internet.

I want to end this but I can't find a good way to deal with it.

Have you gone through this? Any tips on overcoming this?
Indeed. Commodore killed itself and Amiga, and breakneck speed of PC advancement didn't help. Doom was just a side effect of it all. It left a trauma on Amiga community though, you can still see the community mentioning Doom to this day (see, it can run Doom?). Doom-envy is omnipresent to this day. There was another, rarely mentioned, which is nintendo-envy. NES and then SNES in particular had killer games where Amiga never came through in such capacity (platformers, it shined in other genres). Amiga was poor man's SGI at the time. It was great, fun, relatively cheap for what it offered. It could've been so much more if Commodore had a sense of direction and focus. Alas, here we are lamenting decades after on its fate.

Cachet it left is still strong. I recently (over few years back) tried to get ahold of Amiga again. I just wanted one endgame A1200.. now I have three A1200 - one with Blizzard 1230/030+fpu which is the best general purpose IMO, one with Blizzard 1260/060rev6 for demos (not that great compatibility for general purpose), and one with TF1260/060rev6.. and then two A600 (one stock, one with Furia030) and A500+, indivision addins etc., and a whole bunch of Commodore 1084s monitors. It was supposed to be only one A1200, damnit. Take it as a warning from a friend if you want to get one, they multiply fast.

How do you expect the New York Times to pay its reporters if they do not charge? Internet advertising is not a large money maker for a lot of sites. Also, if people will not pay for news, unethical corporations and unethical governments will, and our "free" news will be propaganda. My main point is people on the Internet cannot have it both ways. We either pay for high quality content or we accept we are going to get clickbait, astroturf, propaganda, fake news, etc.

>> If you want to keep your phone’s battery health in the best possible condition it possibly could be in, you must use the Google charger and cable and keep them all plugged in around the clock.

> Correct me if I'm wrong but the best state of charge for long term storage (not use) is around 60%.

Your reaction is a non-sequitur to the author's point; they were being sassy by saying if you want optimal battery life, plug in and let the device manage voltage/battery health forever.

> this indicates that 80% is better than 100%

Better for what? 50% is better for long-term disconnected storage -- actually, voltage is better than % and for storage you're aiming for 3.7v/cell (which is roughly 40-50%) which is where the discharge properties slow almost to a halt. 80% is the kind of standard "I'm not discharging this charge immediately"-recommended state (see: EV charging recommendations). What the author mentioned in passing and didn't really explain is overprovisioning, which is where the device reports e.g. 100% charge, when the cells are really e.g. 92% charged, which some devices do to maintain battery health. So depending on your device and its configuration, trying to keep charge capped at 80% might in reality be keeping it much lower than you intended.

Anyway, the point of the article is for batteries with good battery management systems -- like modern phones -- it is better to not try and micromanage SoC and let the system do its thing. Those of us that have lots of naked cells should be doing that micro for those cells, but when built into a device with proper management there's no need and it could hurt more than it helps.

Actively | Software Engineers (LLM/backend/data infra, very product-y) & Forward Deployed Engineers (great data/SQL chops, great at understanding customer problems, and strong engineer in general to automate work using LLMs/internal tools) | Full-time | NYC | Onsite

I'm one of the founders of Actively. We're building best-in-class machine learning and LLM-powered scoring for outbound sales teams. Our first product lives in Salesforce, ingests data from a variety of sources (firmographics, intent signals, marketing interactions, and prior engagement, including unstructured call transcripts, email chains, and notes), and combines LLMs with structured models to tell sales reps who they should reach out to each day (and why) to be laser-focused.

Our paying customers are fast-growing unicorns you've definitely heard of with large outbound sales motions, where the reps use us to target their outbound every day. Our thesis is that scoring (a known/"need to have" part of the stack -- but able to be done 10x better with LLMs because you can incorporate the goldmine of unstructured engagement data) is the right wedge into building the intelligence-driven outbound sales stack of the future that _actually works_ for large companies that need to generate millions of dollars in pipeline each quarter. Unlike most other companies in the space, we are explicitly building for companies of this scale and have them using our product today "in production." We have a 100% close rate from pilot → paying customer and want to scale our customer base aggressively this year.

We started with the vision of bringing AI to every business team, and have since narrowed down to focus on outbound sales teams who have a bunch of attractive properties (there are a _ton_ of them out there, they all use the same stack, the data is consolidated in one place, lift is measurable and directly touches the top line, etc.).

We're a small team from Scale/Waymo/Google/etc. (including some very senior folks) working in-person in NYC and looking to bring on a couple more engineers as we start scaling our customer base, in both product engineering & forward deployed engineering roles. If you have at least a few years of experience, are highly entrepreneurial / excited to work closely with customers + dig in across the business, and are excited to work on some combination of LLMs/data infra/across the stack, we would love to chat: mihir [at] actively.ai!

You're missing out on meeting a lot of great people. Some of the most iconic thinkers of our collective history have seemingly offended you with their footwear.

What else have you been missing out on in life due to undue judgement?
This honestly seems kinda fun. If one was really dedicated: buy new device with cash; purchased and used outside city of residence; don’t drive there, non-electric bike or walk; only use device to connect to the website from public wifi; never connect to own wifi; don’t use same VPN service as usual. Not sure if I missed anything. Probably did.
I was gonna mention the exact same thing. Wild times in big trucks. Their wheels and mirrors all stick out to the edge of the lane too.

I find the sales listings on these trucks hilarious tho. They are the ultimate custom McMansions, listed with extremely high premiums for all the custom work, that essentially never sell. If you are in the north a great description to add is “Texas truck” or really any state south of where you are. They also commonly have well over 200k miles. It’s a crazy phenomena.
The very second reference on that page is to a paper by the fraudster. The first link is to a compound study of five studies, including one of the fraudster. The fourth reference cites Aggarwal as well, and no doubt the chain continues.

I can't tell how much of the linked effects are based on retracted papers (it's all members-only), but I wouldn't trust these websites too much until every dubious paper has been retracted and websites like these have been updated, if they will be updated at all.

Most scientific research into the substance seems to be based (at least in part) on Aggarwal's work, so in turn most of the research needs to be re-evaluated; that's a lot of tedious work, and I'm not sure if websites like these will have the manpower to do that.
Tesla's can "see" humans, cyclists, cars, etc, independent of the headlights.

It's possible that this awareness is what's used as input for the matrix headlights. Either entirely, or in coordination with detecting oncoming headlights.

I'm confused about your mention of technical solutions. What would a non-technical solution look like?
Xreal (Nreal) has a product using electrochromic glass which apparently works pretty well although doesn't quite become completely opaque; that might be an option.

I think Apple isn't really interested in VR though, so they might accept some light bleed in a "just glasses" form factor Vision product.

Not expressly, I just wouldn't invest in it, since it will likely fall into a dead end, like Silverlight.

Building your life around transit means making choices. Building your life around a car means making choices too. If the quoted TCO of owning a car at $12,000/year is accurate, moving some of that spending to housing could make transit friendly housing more viable.

I don't think this poster was calling for removal of cars or whatever, just pointing out that it's possible to build your life without them. For at least some people.

There's certainly tradeoffs. Where I live, I could do many things with transit, but hours of operation are very limited, and direct routes are very limited. Sometimes, I can take transit to the airport and it makes sense, but on my most recent trip, getting to the airport would have been very stressful as the ferry canceled most of the morning runs on short notice and AFAIK, there's no reasonable alternative route without a private car. On the way home, there's no transit on my side of the ferry on a Sunday, and even if there was, it ends hours before I get there. If I needed to build my life around transit, I'd need to fly only during limited hours and not have any scheduling mishaps, spend nights in hotels a ferry away from my home, or move to a more transit accessible home.

At the same time, I don't complain that NYC doesn't accomadate my life built around cars. I choose a life built around cars, and so I avoid built up urban areas whenever possible. I hate paying for parking, so going into the city needs a good reason, and I would never want to live there.
This was in the marketing for the previous VR headsets. They looked just as goofy as Palmer on the cover.
> the GrapheneOS golden rule applies: don’t try to be a ‘power user.’ The devices GrapheneOS supports are thoroughly modern and will manage their own battery health automatically, far better than you ever could manually

So this advise is distorted by an apparent hate for "power users".

It's strange to suggest that modern embedded hardware is perfect. But more importantly, there's a conflict between the longest battery life your product can offer in initial reviews, and longevity years later. And while it's true that "fast" charging isn't necessarily bad at all, there is similarly a conflict between offering the fastest charging for reviews/comparisons, and keeping the temperature optimal for longevity.

So for their "power users bad" philosophy they should have just said "plug it in whenever you want, it'll be perfectly fine". To say you could get the best possible battery longevity by keeping the phone plugged in at all times (with the original charger?!) is absurd, especially combined with the fact that apparently grapheneOS doesn't have the usage-pattern-learning feature to keep charge at 80% until just before you unplug each day ...
I agree that it made sense from a pragmatic point of view, but airpods and ipads come with USB-C and I've never heard a story of anyone frying them with a random cable. I mean, surely it happens but it seems a pretty low frequency event.

I feel the intersection of the set of people buying really expensive apple stuff, those who get really cheap USB-C cables, and also not being aware of the issue, is somewhat small.
I don't think there is a real plan, I think it's just the current state of the power struggle between two competing factions. Some browser devs prioritize web apps being as good as native apps. And some browser devs prioritize not causing problems for users (such as using too many resources). Seems like sometimes one faction sneaks something past the other to advance their cause a bit, and in total the result is incoherent.
