True, but occasionally a newbie offers a solution to a problem and rejects the rejection when people try to tell them why their solution won't work.

For example, several years ago here on HN, during a thread about cryptography, someone admitted to not knowing much about cryptography, but offered one-time pads as a solution to the weaknesses of PKI. I tried to tell them that OTP solve a different problem that is unrelated to PKI, but they wanted nothing of it. They claimed that my response was purely emotional and that just because I knew more than them about cryptography doesn't automatically make them wrong. When I tried the Socratic Method to lead them towards an understanding of why they were wrong, they accused me of being condescending and said that I should answer my own questions.

If I see a bold claim that I have a hard time believing, then I'll ask follow-up questions. But when someone makes a bold claim that is just factually incorrect, while admitting they don't know much, and then get upset when someone tells them why it's incorrect, then that's just plain frustrating.
We have pretty good clarity that Septimius Severus wasn't racially African. His parents were of Italian and Carthaginian descent. To portray a Roman emperor -- with no further specification -- as black is to intentionally misrepresent the historical record. I use the term "race or ethnicity" because this was the language Bard used when referring to its rewording of my prompt. That other cultural portrayals of emperors have likewise been inaccurate doesn't mean I should be satisfied with the same from Imagen, especially when there are competing image models which will dutifully synthesize an image of much higher correspondence to my request.
> [BYD snagged] the EV sales crown from longtime leader Tesla in 2023...

Does anyone know offhand how many watts of batteries each sold?

Tesla's models are larger and IIRC is also battery supply constrained. Whereas BYD's sells proportionally more smaller vehicals, so can sell more vehicals with the battery supply they have.

Also, which has better margins? Is this competition like iPhone vs Android, where Apple scooped up most of the profit? (Acknowledging that Musk Inc feasts at the trough of govt subsidies. And IIRC the CCP does the same for BYD .)
In practice, I think GitHub/GitLab/etc solve this UX problem pretty well. Inline git tools let you jump immediately to the PR that generated the code change, and the PR description + code reviews + snapshot of the commit help to understand what the point of the change was. You can search the PRs when you want to find some context. (It's unfortunate that PRs are not stored in the repository itself. I mean, Git is not a great database for a multi-user webpage, so this wouldn't quite work... but it would be nice if the archive was durable and easy to export/share.)

Well, I think this would pair well with assisted suicide.

You have the living funeral.
You can even have the coffin and all of that.

Once it is over.
The person has an induced complete metabolic failure.
The person is quickly placed into the coffin.
The procession for the burial can commence.

Give or take an hour it's pretty much the same as a real funeral.
WTF, no. Media absolutely shouldn't be lowered to children's cartoons for adults. That's absurd. And nobody in the world who isn't already completely insane finds gang rape 'cool', nor does this book or movie portray it positively.

This is the compromise - allow the scrollbar to be styled and in exchange developers don't implement their own scrollbars in javascript (as demanded by designers/managers)
That simply is not true. Terminal patients have a deadline, you have a nebulous time somewhere in the future.

If you knew for a fact you were gonna die tomorrow, would you still go into work?
Amazing. Would you mind disclosing where in Germany you are and what here degree is in?
It's probably unfair to the readers that they are only presenting performance against GPT3.5 turbo and not against GPT 4. We could all make our numbers look excellent if we compared them to lesser models.
Morphine helps!
Netflix has done some really low effort shows, like "Is it cake", or just low quality drama disguisted as home improvement, like "Hack it" or "Tiny House Nation".

I dunno what they are thinking, but surely it has to devalue their brand and consumer conception of a fair price for the service?
Yes, yes I definitely would apply this to others. Sick and tired of web developers and "designers" killing any usability and accessibility in those controls.
I feel like that's fine, honestly. They've probably done the math and found it's better to sell YouTube Premium for a dollar in India and get a bunch of Indians on the service than to charge $25 or whatever everywhere and end up getting almost nobody over there.
If I may ask, what is your hardware setup like if you're achieving consistent 1.6Gbps? Is that a reproducible, every day speed? Is that only for LAN or both LAN+WAN?
When my mother died, I really needed the funeral. It really helped with the grieving process.

I think my mother would have appreciated something like this when she had cancer. Sadly, she was in denial about her state of health and only admitted to herself that she was dying when she only had a week left.

But, these things don't have to be called "Living Funerals." We would have had a larger 50th anniversary party for my parents, (about a year after her diagnosis,) if we'd been a bit further out of Covid.
But that's abstraction that you're actually using. The parent to my comment was implying that the debug symbols are an indication of abstraction that you're paying for whether you use it or not (in contradiction to the "zero cost abstraction" mantra/motto of C++ and Rust).

You're perfectly welcome to just use a raw for loop with numeric indexes in Rust , in which case you wouldn't have those extra function calls for iterators, etc. Likewise, if you implemented an iterator abstraction in C, you'd end up paying a similar cost. So, that's not what the grandparent comment was talking about.
The challenge being, who else could possibly handle Cloudflare's requirements? I imagine the next step is to build their own, and that's obviously not an easy pill to swallow.
Incredibly annoying. I have Google Fi and a year of free YTP, which I attached to a free gmail account, which is not fun because I have all my subs and history on the workspace account... and there's no way to transfer subs/history. There are projects to do it but they are 1) old and 2) work by "watching" all the videos! Crazy.

It's clear Google allows export of user's YT data only to satisfy some checkbox somewhere. It's not at all useful.
There have been some advances (fewer in recent years, most of the technologies you've listed are decades old), but braking distances for consumer vehicles is still in the 130' range at 60 mph. This is better than the 200' from a decade ago, but still significant.

Consumer vehicles now able to accelerate to 60 mph in 2 seconds, but it can still take them up to 3 seconds to get back to 0.

Note: These are based on a safety article from Edmonds, 'Keep your Distance', who uses a distance of 132' with a braking time of 3.1 seconds. They appear to be measuring a car at the lighter end of the spectrum, as other articles I found still refer to 200'+ at the heavy end of the spectrum.
If you don't want Firefox to pause the video when you turn off the screen, just switch to desktop mode. Also... you should use something like Newpipe instead...
According to our legal systems, you are welcome to try this and argue it and if its truly a constitutional crisis it just might get argued in front of the supreme court.

Hello. I'm Aaron. As a creative, out of the box thinker, I create solid reliable solutions for the problems Your Organization has. I'm a team oriented self-motivated architect and engineer who loves working with people, and on challenging, interesting, or meaningful problems. In my career I've: developed software for multi-million dollar production lines down to handheld scanners, written software to produce radioactive drugs for over 2.2 million patients, crafted computer vision software to produce and qualify billions of products, designed a dual syntax programming language for nuclear scientists, co-created a custom virtual machine byte code, designed and implemented my own asynchronous network and intra-process messaging library, ran my own game development studio, reversed engineered x86 assembly, designed and created a mobile user interface implementation from scratch, and much more!

I'd be happy to discuss how my skill set could apply to the problems you need to solve.

I'm interested in a job working on any of the following: User Interface Development/Design, Aerospace, Robotics, Medical Devices, Pharmaceuticals, Industrial Automation, AI, Programming Language Development, Scientific Research, Genetic Engineering, Biotechnology, Astronomy, Game Development (not gambling), Rendering (2D and 3D), Virtual Reality, 3D Printing, IoT, or similar areas of work.
Great memories of the original DSL. New one looks great at a glance, really nice collection of applications. Blown away they managed to fit all that on a CD. From the page, it sounds like they did a lot of work to make it happen.

Really cool stuff. Might stick this on an old laptop when I get home.
I don't know how I would handle a terminal diagnosis so I refrain from "voicing an opinion" on the actions of those about to die.
Too bad there hasn't been any development at all since July 2023
Are these surfaced someplace in the app or on the website? I just poked around the app a bit and didn't find them.
Hawaii has a lot of sun. Not sure they can be a model for any of the mainland that doesn't look like their weather.
Number of hops definitely matters more usually. For example I'm about 150 miles from Azure East US 2 (richmond, va), and at the speed of light that should be sub 2ms round trip, but actual latency to it is ~30ms. But I'm sure I'm going through dozens of switches/routers to get there. What Starlink buys you is that you get to go straight to a satellite, then a laser in a vacuum to other satellite(s) and then a ground station that's likely already at an IXP or very close to one.
At least it won't have a measurable impact on art.

That's a very western phenomenon, though. Maybe even very American...
We need more anti-anticompetitive action. Why should NVidia and those who use their products be punished because their competitors have not stepped up to the plate?

This all stereotypucal nonsense though, about BSD being great for servers. BSDs are non-LTS, rolling systems, which severely limits their use for servers, where package stability is top priority. They are good for certain kind of servers, but not a replacement for Red Hat.

The civil rights act actually explicitly designed to work against my race, as it authorized nearby off res businesses to preferentially hire an Indian living near the reservation.
I thought species meant collection of individuals who could breed with one another.

So foxes and dogs/wolves are distinct because, while clearly very related, their chromosomes are factored differently (haploid numbers), whereas wolves and dogs and coyotes are all compatible, for examples.

In mice;

and there are some anatomical differences between mice and humans..

So its open at this point whether it is relevant directly to humans.

IIRC, mice do not get Alzheimer’s, for instance. There are mouse models (genetically engineered)that exhibit some of the physiological symptoms of Alzheimer’s; but mice make particularly poor models for human neurology [1]- so this reach for using these essentially biomechanical structures to identify parallels and try to target a cure for neuro-degerative disorders in humans: seems more like a grant application attempt. I do wish press releases were a little more circumspect about such claims.

I think it's that when you're a tourist visiting somewhere you're far more likely to encounter people without jobs wherever you go, as the people with jobs are at work working, then go home to their families or friends or chores then go to bed, not hang around all day in the city center cafes chatting up tourists.

From gut feeling, this effect is especially pronounced in Germany. You don’t have exactly those 4 years of experience in Java Spring Poop? Into the trash your CV goes.

They cannot conceive people learning new skills quickly, being dynamic, or their two years worth of experience weighing much heavier than your average, mentally checked out 4 YoE developer.

Screening hundreds of people quickly is tough, I get it, but either be actually open minded or quit crying about labour shortage.
Fascinating. Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but I immediately have questions about whether sleep quality links with neurodegenerative disease are instead a symptom of sleep apnea via reduced lymphatic stimulation and not sleep itself. Could diet impact it, not by the composition of the food, but by consistency and how much chewing is involved. Could chewing gum make a difference? Neck exercises? I wonder if there is a correlation with people who mouth breathe or clench their teeth at night.
Why? Because it's the best for my needs. It also honors the "BSD tradition" and has fantastic backward compatibility.

I have been running NetBSD since before linux existed. Why switch to something less familiar, and, honestly, less friendly?

NetBSD is the emacs of OSs - always there, reliable, maintainable, fast, clean.

With a fantastic, friendly user community. Give it a go https://NetBSD.Org/
This is framed in a very specific way. The real question is how much latitude administrative agencies should be given. Chevron says a lot and it says that they don't have to be consistent, nor do they have to even meet the plain meaning of the legislation. The issue this causes is it allows congress to not legislate, but pass the buck to the administrate agency. Congress has been dysfunctional for so long we have come to expect it, but it doesn't mean it’s good for our system.

If congress wants something regulated, they should pass a law and give guidance and the agency should have to meet the clear meaning of the law until its changed by congress. In general, a new president shouldn't affect how agencies implement the will of congress but chevron kinda implicitly allows this. There are lots of regulations that may be swept away if we do away with Chevron but I think it will make the system more accountable and force congress to do its job.
Thanks for the kind words, Alex! You have probably written more great sqlite extensions than anyone, so your feedback is very meaningful.

You are right that there are limitations. The sqlite virtual table API is very clearly designed with row-oriented access in mind. However, there are still ways that stanchion makes analytical queries faster: lazily loading segments (which are the BLOBs that contain the actual values) so data that is not accessed is skipped, using encodings like bit packing to reduce the size of data that needs to be traversed on disk, and allowing users to specify a clustered index to ensure records are ordered in a way that allows querying to minimize data access.

One area that I want to explore more deeply is the xFindFunction callback in the virtual table API. It allows the a virtual table to "overload" a function with its own implementation. I believe there are some opportunities to work around some of the limitations you are describing, but I'm not even sure at this point if they can apply to aggregate functions.

This is all theoretical until there are solid benchmarks, which is something that I want to add in the near term. And if you know of any workarounds to the limitations that you think may be useful, I am all ears!
Take a look at the slides from the presentation, I think the geometry clearly shows cross-plane links in the mesh. Having worked on these types of systems, I've had more difficulty with the lookahead angles (rx from where the target was, tx to where it will be due to speed of light) than the tracking -- fine tracking performance was required for all modes, and it largely became a GNC and acquisition time issue (since they're ephemeral) for the cross-plane links.
> We have pretty good clarity that Septimius Severus wasn't racially African.

No one was racially African, because race, in the sense the term is used today, is an age of imperialism social construct.
Attendi | Senior Machine Learning Engineer | Amsterdam, ON-SITE hybrid | Full-time (80-100%)

Healthcare professionals have to spend too much time on administrative tasks, when they should be spending that time delivering great care. Attendi allows healthcare professionals to report with their voice. This saves them precious time and removes the screen between client and caregiver, allowing more personal and effective care to be given. We provide an extraordinary work environment: getting paid well to work with smart people on things that directly have a positive impact on society.

Healthcare professionals perform all their administrative tasks in electronic health record (EHR) systems. Attendi (voice) enables EHR vendors' applications by developing speech-to-text and textual understanding APIs.

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer, you will play a key role in applying the latest research findings to our unique datasets, focusing on the end-to-end development and deployment of AI models. This includes writing production-grade inference code and overseeing the entire lifecycle of these models, from design to deployment.

We are a small startup team with fewer than ten members, which means no bullshit, moving fast, and getting a generous slice of equity. We're post product-market fit, profitable, and on the cusp of scaling up in the Dutch market.

Check out https://attendi.recruitee.com/o/ml-engineer for more details on the position.

Feel free to send any questions to berend [at] attendi [dot] nl.
