Tesla wasn't actually being forced. In the past, other automakers like Ford, GM, Porsche and Kia/Hyundai ran into the exact same problem. They just filed an inconsequential non-compliance petition to NHTSA because this issue is so minor and it would have been too expensive to fix --- for them.

What happens if you have two terms that are incidentally equivalent:

A = "Hello "
B = "Hello "
C = A ++ "world"
D = B ++ "world"

and then you update the definition of A but not B?

I for one don't notice any quality/resolution difference between native apps and a mirrored Mac screen.

I agree it feels "worse" than a physical screen - it is certainly less crisp. But I ran an experiment, and created a doc with font sizes from 1-15 pt, then viewed it on my physical 24" 4k monitor, and on a mirrored Mac display in the AVP set to the same (virtual) dimensions and distance away.

Interestingly, text became illegible (without leaning closer in either case) for me at around the 6pt mark for both of them. Objectively speaking, the size of font I can read is pretty equivalent, although I find myself preferring fonts about 2pts larger on the AVP than on my physical monitor.

I suspect this is because the physical display is able to benefit from precise pixel alignment and subpixel rendering, which the AVP can't. But the "average density" feels pretty equivalent... it somehow feels more an issue of optical sharpness than of "pixel size" (even I know the two are related.)
I fell asleep. Well, at least that's another cognitive improvement.

I tried it a couple of times, but the showstopper for me was the hosting model was the show stopper. I think the premise of the language and platform has so many amazing aspects that are very exciting to me. But it also i had a hard time imagining pitching this together with unison cloud to my team. All the components together at this moment in time. A very big investment into an ecosystem.

Hope some smart developers would take the learning and try to integrate it with existing languages like clojure.

Still going to follow what unison is doing because it is so exciting

The bit I forgot to mention here was that alongside all that my parents were incredibly diligent in making sure I learnt how to touch type at the same time, which I can't thank them enough for. That means that I can write without thinking about the mechanical action of doing so at all, which was never the case for handwriting.

Possibly given sufficient focus on practicing handwriting that would have worked as well but several years of near constant handwriting in school never got to that point, while 30-60 minutes a day of practice at typing had me able to beat the speed I could handwrite at within a month or two.
"At Shopify, all candidates begin the interview process with something called the Life Story, an interview in which the candidate sits down and discusses their work history, passions, and aspirations."

None of that sounds like the actual stories about childhood. It's totally appropriate to discuss past work experiences, aspirations and passions as a "Life Story".

Moreover the “Tell me a little about yourself” suggested interview opener is open-eded enough that the candidate can decide what they want to discuss and highlight. Majority of people do not answer that question with "my first memory was when father left when I was 3 years old..."

I agree, dots should only be combined when they are actually overlapping by a significant amount. Otherwise you’re just hiding information in a frustrating way.
That would be the point of contact with the article, yes, but the thing about generic tangents is that they take off from a point and then head in a generic direction, one which is nearly always less interesting than the specifics of the article itself—and which if the topic is divisive at all, usually ends in a flamewar that is just a repetition of previous flamewars. On HN, we're trying to avoid this kind of thing and focus on curious conversation.

Btw I'm quite sure you didn't intend any of what I'm describing here. The point is that it happens unintentionally, and all too easily, so we all need to learn to consciously avoid it.

Early VR of this wave had some remarkable displays, not in a sense that "wow they are so good", but "wow HMD displays were pure trash before". Quest 1 while it was a very silly device, it was a pretty good inside-out HMD. Q2 was a lot better.

All of those devices still suffered from the same issues: they can put only whatever Qualcomm can make for them. XR2 Gen 2 is slower than Snapdragon from the same generation. This is due to how "inefficient" Qualcomm SoCs compared to what Apple makes for themselves. (not M2 is meant for desktops and XR2 Gen2 is based on SoC used in mobile phones, so they were created with different power and thermal budgets in mind)

I find it interesting how apple went about the "number crunching" part of AVP by making a separate coprocessor just for that. Yeah, XR2 Gen2 has similar capabilities on SoC, but I want to see benchmarks.

At least you hope, it is more power efficient due to advanced manufacturing process. And then a totally disappointment: new CPU consumes significantly more both under load and idle. The AI-extensions are also missing. ECC is missing in all 8300G/8500G/8600G/8700G.
No. Desktops make the cost issues even worse, because supporting twice the memory bus width not only means more wires, but also a larger, more expensive CPU socket, and maybe a new heatsink mounting standard.

You should ignore anyone claiming unquantifiables like "light years ahead".

In 10 years, my hopeful list is:

* More custom/specialized silicon for XR. There's aren't many players here currently.
* Retina/~60 PPD.
* Micro LED (not OLED), making varifocal and HDR possible.
* Varifocal lenses, which are just as important for comfort as high res.
* Cameras optimized for passthrough, rather than borrowed from cellphones.
* Lighter weight. They're almost tolerable, rather than acceptable, as is. This almost certainly involves offloading some of the compute.

But, a powerful untethered XR system and a lightweight set of untethered glasses will necessarily be very different, in capabilities. I imagine I'll end up with a tethered device, as a display replacement, in the next 10 years.
You’re really overstating your case. There is nothing intrinsic to frameworks that makes this difficult.

It’s basically a few lines of SQL code emitted as part of database transaction setup. The frameworks I’ve used have had the ability to register a transaction initialiser during pool setup. Other than that the framework doesn’t even have to know about it. Most of the “complexity” is on the database side, but it’s really not that hard.

“Will any stakeholder pay for it?”. If your stakeholders are serious about application security, then I would expect so.

(I’ll just add that I know of at least one product that does this - Postgraphile sets the database role up front for requests from the web. I seem to recall that Supabase does something similar.)
Good to hear! I wonder how many people kinda need glasses and don't get them, making the popular opinion of what the retina is capable of much too low.

Apologies if this is a dumb question, and maybe it applies to other services I may already use, but:

What if Unison language and the Cloud have a vulnerability. Would you suddenly have a large network of services that could be readily exploited? This sort of "infrastructure monoculture" situation gives me the heebie-jeebies, but I'm admittedly pretty dumb when it comes to security.

I imagine that with my Google Cloud Run instance running who-knows-what language on maybe some framework, the opportunities to zero in on an exploit are fewer than when an attacker can know exactly what's running, what it's running on, and perhaps even have the ability to enumerate to find instances off of pro plans since they may often use auto-generated names from hyphen-separated common words. If the sandboxing of instances is poor, it seems like it could be a huge problem.

Again, I have no idea what I'm talking about. Mostly curious to learn more, not criticize.

One of the best things that's happened to the web is all browsers moving over to an evergreen model of distribution. IE was such a cancer on the internet, everyone in the bad old days programmed to the lowest common denominator (IE6, 7, or 8). Even while brand new features and standards were widely adopted by everyone else.

One of the worst things that's happened is nearly everyone converging on using webkit to render everything. Feels like slowly stepping backwards into the days when everyone writes for webkit rather than a more open internet.

That being said, there's so little difference between webkit and gecko now-a-days that it's really hardly a major issue.

The Okinawa Diet: Living to 100 [video]
That sounds like it was fairly long ago. With the introduction of the VAT MOSS (Mini One Stop Shop) system somewhere around 2015 it got a lot easier. VAT MOSS got replaced with something else a couple years ago, whose name I forget, but it largely works the same at least from the point of view of a non-EU company selling digital goods via the net into the EU.

The way VAT MOSS work is that instead of having to register for VAT collection in every EU country you sell in, and having to deal with reporting and remitting in every such country, you just have to register in one. You do all your reporting and remitting to just the tax authorities in that country.

You still have to collect the correct VAT on your sales into the other countries, but you report those sales to the country you are registered with and turn the money over to them. They deal with then reporting to and paying the other countries.

We're registered in Ireland. I wasn't involved in registering, but the person who handled it told me that it took something like 10 minutes on the web, with no need to interact with any humans. The quarterly reporting is, I'm told, a simple upload of a CSV file that contains a line for each EU country we had sales in listing the total amount of sales, the VAT rate, and the VAT collected.

Schema changes basically causing heterogeneous representations of data. If you only add columns forever and never change types its fine. Oh, and being able to specify the time a thing happened is sometimes useful (though you don't want everyone doing that of course...)

Also double checking the docs because its been 5 years since I have reasonably touched SQL Server - no indexes on historical tables so it gets slow fast, Filetable doesn't work* /nvarchar(max) records bloat you hard core.

I find that a log record is much better as a non relational/document type record that is isomorphic to the record so I can schema on read if I need to, and if you want to JSON query that stuff it works fine too.

This is about the Unison language but I think it's relevant. I was checking out the FAQ for Unison and noticed this:

https://www.unison-lang.org/docs/usage-topics/general-faqs/#...

> Unison does not currently support a Foreign Function Interface, for invoking code written in other languages.

> Your programs can interact with the outside world via the `IO` ability, and this includes interaction via network sockets - so you can interact with code written in other languages if that code can expose a network interface, for example as a web service. We'd like to improve on this position in the future.

So far so good, I guess. They're trying to do something that makes sense in the future.

They then go on to outline how they're apparently going to expose specific parts of what you might want to use, like `GPU` as an ability/effect...? What do I do when I just want to execute some of my C code and don't want to jump through hoops to do so? I get that this maybe falls apart entirely because of the idea of content-addressable functions, but can't an FFI binding be the hash of its name and inputs and output or something?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding their plan with regards to FFI solutions. In the end I'd like to just have something like this with both static and dynamic libraries:

ModuleName = foreign import c [libmodule.a, otherlib.so]
ModuleName.OpaqueCoolType a = OpaqueCoolType a
ModuleName.has : a -> OpaqueCoolType a -> Bool

I don't think the physics will ever be there in terms of battery/energy consumption of said future devices, meaning that I don't think Apple (or any other company) will ever be able to build a processing-device that won't have to depend on a big enough battery.

You could try to miniaturise it all (up to a point) and include it as part of the device itself, similar to Google Glass, but who would want such an energy "bucket" so close to one's eyes and face? That's just disaster (and a big lawsuit) waiting to happen.
Why focus on youth employment? Not that I disagree China economy is the toilet. But I do think they have a more nimble economy that can turn around quicker.

If your thesis is that world manufacturing is leaving China to return (primarily) to the US that seems unlikely. More likely it will move to places like Africa and South America, no? We would expect that to happen as China economy transitions and they become the dominant world super power.

It's pretty common for a company to adopt their first product's name as their brand name as they branch out into other products. Just like how Raspberry Pi sells accessories, microcontrollers, cases, etc. under the brand name Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi (which originally made a product called the Orange Pi, which was definitely meant to invoke the small computing idea, totally not a trademark violation wink wink), now makes other products under that brand name.

(I'm still a little miffed that RPi didn't come up with a different name for the raspberry pi pico.)

Have you ever been to the south? The down votes are because your position is asinine.

It's more likely that southern states are willing to throw huge incentive packages to these manufacturers. Probably not so much on the coasts or the northern states.

Also, unions are less common in the south; those states tend to be right-to-work states.

Finally, you used the word "impoverished", which is ridiculous. But wages are lower in the south so that is probably another reason.
In my metro area it's mostly just articles about specific buildings which is interesting if you're a building nerd, not so much if you're not. On an imaginary notability scale, they'd all be on the bottom rung meeting just the minimum to be included in Wikipedia.

For example, one of the items:

Staring at that text just gives me a headache, in particular "This does not affect whether a type models the concept".

What is "this" here? The example, of a type which clearly doesn't model the concept it syntactically conforms to? The requirement? All of the preceding text ?
