I wonder if it's possible to detect features in an image, and encode those to compress an image, a bit like what image-to-SVG converters do, but better.

Feature detection is a big subject, and I don't know if it would work for image compression.

> Can anyone (withoutboats?) elaborate on this? If “stackful” coroutines means functions with an ordinary-ish stack that can yield, then those stacks are just memory, and you can take references to them.

See http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2018/p136... for an in-depth analysis. The short version is that stackful fibers turn out to be a terrible choice. The author (Gor Nishanov, for the C++ ISO committee) explicitly says that they should not be used - this is even in spite of the fact that Windows API explicitly supports fibers as part of the programming interface, at a far deeper level than just POSIX setcontext.

Twitter AI Bot Problem
I find at least a little bit funny that it seems that completely new people now "discover" what you can do with VR, as if this hasn't been a thing for almost 10 years and certainly for the last 5 years (although with slightly lower resolution than with the AVP).

But then again, it helps the entire industry that it apparently has reached a different audience this time who gets hyped again.

I just wish there could be new use-cases than just the same old recycled use-cases like virtual monitors, watching movies, looking at how it is to stand on the moon, or virtual conferencing. Maybe there really are no killer VR apps, except beat saber :/

Wasn't AVP supposed to be an AR headset? Or they just haven't really figured out what to do there? Now it's just a VR headset with passthrough, it isn't really "using" the external world.

That's not "overcoming", it's just working within its limits.

You can overcome the rocket equation by using non-rocket based propulsion, such as solar sails, tethers (momentum exchange or grounded e.g. space fountain), slingshot effect, electrodynamic field propulsion, or (if anyone can solve the huge number of issues even at the purely theoretical level never mind practical) spacetime metric propulsion including but not limited to Alcubierre's.

Also arguably by using the Oberth effect, but IMO that counts as boosting what you can get from rockets, not sure if it counts as "overcoming" or not…

The bigger problem is growable stacks. It’s true you can suspend a stack and then continue as long as your implementation doesn’t ever move it. I didn’t really dwell on this because I wrote more about it in “Why async Rust?”

And you’re right that the mutex in the kernel is implemented with a similar algorithm - I just meant that the code in the library you’re using is very different, because it is a relatively thin wrapper around the relevant syscalls whereas the async one is implemented in userspace.
In Texas, if you don't get in an accident, cops will rarely spot that your registration is out of date and definitely won't check if you have insurance. If you do get in an accident and are lacking a driver's license and/or insurance and/or current registration, they'll take the report, maybe issue a citation and usually just let you leave if the car can drive.

The rewards of fraud in this context are orders of magnitude greater than its costs. The article is not wrong when it blames “bad incentives” and “the rampant culture of publish and perish”. The root cause, however, is the steady cultural shift away from honesty, integrity, and other (sine qua non?) values. As a society, we’re way too tolerant of lies and deceit IMHO.

Feel free to drop links to your said questions. Often it's just vague allegations with little evidence.

Getting something closed as a duplicate shouldn't be taken as a slight. It's often good that various formulations of a question then can point to the same answer. Or if the answer to the other question answers yours, isn't it just good that you and other people will be directed there? It's a Q&A site, not a forum. Which question stands doesn't matter except for feelings.

Same with your vague or clarity. It's Q&A, not a forum with back and forth discussions. It's just not a right fit. You might think that's not how you'd like the site to be, but it is how it is. It's not overzealous moderators closing it.

Coming from Elixir land, the Config module accomplishes some of Pkl's goals. But you're pretty limited by what you can do since the config files run at compile-time. Lack of typing and need for magic atoms to retrieve them can make them fickle and prone to typos.

There's probably enough interest and demand for node bindings to be spearheaded. God knows how many config files you have to tinker around with in SPA land. And of course using it for docker/k8 configs could benefit just about any language.

Great work, thank you.

Till today, I use the "unhackable" iPod Nano 7g. I collected a ton of information what would be needed to hack it, but unfortunately, I did not have the time.

In case you are interested in getting functional / non-functional devices to experiment, reach out on https://pilabor.com (I'm from Germany).

My plan was to desolder the 16GB flash chip (it's LGA60) and try to reprogram it with a device like this:

https://de.aliexpress.com/i/32951067630.html

Maybe soldering it back on the iPod with this in between to debug / reprogram faster:

https://de.aliexpress.com/item/32844952323.html

Old iPhones (I think the 5s has the same LGA60 Nand) can be reprogrammed with a JC Pro 1000S Programmer, but they don't have a setting for iPods AFAIK. So maybe with a lot of effort it would be possible to use it to reprogram a Nand Chip having an Apple Serial No.

There also was a project called Nand-AID (https://www.timeextension.com/news/2023/04/modder-is-resurre...) providing a microSD-Card replacement for dead nands on the Wii U consoles. Sounded interesting to try on the iPod Nano 7G :-)

lemonjesus (https://github.com/lemonjesus/iPodBluetooth) created a bootloader Hack for the iPod Nano 3g enabling him to use a bluetooth device. He also made a youtube video about it.

But I never got into it too far. I just found out that milling out the backplate of an iPod Nano 7g can fit an iPod Mini 600mah battery and make it "replaceable" without opening the device again - so as long as the Nand does not die, I'll keep using my iPods :-)

The next device I'm planning to buy is the HiBy M300. It's way bigger but runs Android 13 and is a real DAP.

The mention of planet's "installation," in the abstract and repeatedly throughout the article, I have found very confusing. The reference to Kopparapu et al. (2013) has no mention of the term whatsoever. I have found a mention of "instellation" from one of the authors working with Kopparapu [1]. Instellation, indeed, is, according to Wiki, "a generalization of insolation to stars other than the sun," which makes sense in this context.

I wonder if I am missing anything - given it's in MNRAS already - or this is likely an artifact of auto-correction.

Bitcoin doesn't fall in the category of goods though. It's a service. If it stops operating, any "coins" it had allocated are just bits in the wind.

Now you may say you should be free to spend money on the horrendous energy bill of those miners, so that they allocate some coins to you. If there were no externalities, I'd agree. But since there are, I will argue against doing it. And we won't bridge that divide here I guess.
It sounds to me like you really care about mentees being successful and are investing a lot of time/effort. I believe you can change your outlook a bit into knowing it's moreso on them to flourish. For example, you sound extremely hands-on for a mentor. I would not do all of their coding for them.

IMO it's not your job to teach how to use a framework. But instead of assuming they "should" know things, you could assume they are skilled but at different aspects of development. So from this perspective, a mentor might give additional topics to brush up on to be successful in the job. And still be super open to providing internal career advice, helping with company-specific things, etc.

It sounds like maybe a lot of what you write here is important for mentee success yet not being communicated. You could probably be more upfront about team expectations, and let them know what a typical dev workload will look like.

Hiring is tough, and some people are not able to perform as well as expected. That can be frustrating, but it's not your fault. You may want to clarify how the company evaluates new hires so you know the process.
I posted it 11 hours ago, when it wasn't.
When you say that someone is 1.90 m tall what you're actually saying is that their height is given by a random variable whose expected value is 1.90 m. Usually that random variable is a Gaussian with a very small standard deviation. In case of human height perhaps 0.005 m since height varies slightly during the day and measurements are inexact. Saying the request rate is 4 Hz works the same, except here the random variable (probably) is Poisson distributed with expected value 4.

iSCSI target software for the ESP32 microcontroller
15 years or so ago I worked with iSCSI SANs; big boxes full of super fast hardware, lots of disks and expensive. Thinking back at that time I wondered: would it be possible to make a microcontroller into an iSCSI target? (a SAN on a microcontroller so to say) So I sat down and wrote a firmware for the cheap ESP32 to do so. And it works! You can now finally let your server boot from an SD-card (I connected an SD-card interface to the device for storage) over iSCSI. Not very fast (35 iops, 150kB/second (over WiFi)) but the proof of concept definitely works :-)

Probably not more enjoyment, unless you pretend the early buyer can never upgrade ever.

Unless you are far from civilization you can just use the cellular network and not need yet another radio. My Tesla gets real time updates for traffic congestion already, it's not much of a stretch to think that it could upload it's location to a server and receive relevant information concerning the surrounding vehicles through the existing channels.

Many states (like PA) have abandoned licence tags to save a few pennies. Unless you're a cop, it's impossible to know if any vehicle's registration is up-to-date.

And most cops no longer track this stuff visually either. It's my impression that most patrol cars today have autonomous cameras installed that check every license plate in their field of view for expired registrations and outstanding warrants.

Many police cameras likely do facial recognition too. (Numerous states subscribe generously to commercial services that sell face recog with no independent certification of accuracy, which is famously terrible, like a 90% error rate.)
