Author here. Yes, gadget mode is nice. I was kind of lucky that the serial port "function" worked (not without that small kernel patch). But if they had implemented AOA properly on the head unit, it wouldn't be so easy (they allow a device already in AOA mode, without the "handshake"). I would have to write more kernel code or use Google's "accessory" gadget implementation.
I was briefly looking at the Boox Palma - which appeared to be an e-ink smartphone. I then discovered that the marketing page never mentions 4G or 5G support - because it doesn't actually have a cellular modem.

I can see how most people would take that foregranted. Ouch.
That is really interesting. I took note of this. That would be really cool!

MeshCentral is great, just migrated all my rustdesk setup to it.

I mostly use it for family remote support and things tho, performance isn't amazing but it's plenty good.

Also supports things like relaying over an agent, hardware key authentication, file browsing. It's a little wonky in spots but overall it's such a great piece of software.

There are still shenanigans, but all of the wildness has calmed down -- both via goon enforcement and casino staff knowledge.

For example, the ATMs on casino floors are probably some of the most secure in the nation during the con. Harassment is also taken actually seriously.
I don't think having an engineer as a leader is some golden ticket to success. Its ultimately what ruined Nortel for example.
Despite a long history of avoidance, it appears I will finally have to learn about the Apple iPod/iTouch as part of what might well be computer archaeology at this point.

But I suppose, looking back, much of my computing history is doing weird and unlikely stuff for a strange payoff, so at least I am consistent.

My hope is that I can avoid iTunes, which, on Windows, has a reputation for trashing collections willy-nilly.
Yes, please. Price and I’ll relent, taxes, just because it’s nice to know how much the gov is taking in.

Apply this everywhere, including restaurants, delivery services, etc.

Make it so that anything beside price and taxes can be ignored at the discretion of the customer. If it not in the price and it’s not a sales tax, I’m free to ignore it.
You just add a flag to the command line to give permissions. It won't harm your productivity.
If you read the article it is not about libel or slander its about "misinformation" which is a new criminal offense in the UK.

So if I publish a lie that isn't slander or libel (doesn't defame a specific person, like if I claim the earth is flat), then I can be sentenced to a year in prison. But if a "recognized news publisher" publishes the same lie they cannot be charged with a crime.
I'm not so sure that would have been the best solution for the Apollo mission, which is how the Universal Serial Bus came to be.

It's different, but I'd hesitate to call it better. I've been using it for work for over three years now and still regularly get tripped up by weird behavior or missing functionality relative to git. And it's not portable to other employers, because almost no one uses hg/sapling.
power through a copper on copper connection will oxidize over time, which will then result in the the 'crackliness' you get in analog audio, crackliness applied to a high speed data signal = fatal flaw.

It works as a hobbyist solution, but it's a long term disaster.

Why? You'll get much cheaper taxi services + the cars around you will be much safer (and the laws will be changed so far fewer bad drivers will be allowed to drive).
This is why it's strange to me that having children is portrayed as some selfless act; many say they are creating them for their personal fulfillment.

Nevertheless, I'm sure if I had PG's wealth, I could have kids and have a lot better work life balance with them. But I do not.
And did he give out his security number?!

The term “greenfield” comes from physical development- a you are taking a “green field” and turning it into a factory or housing or similar. It’s contrasted to “brownfield” which means developing in or over an already built up area.

In software development “greenfield” generally refers to new systems development whereas “brownfield” refers to the maintenance, extension, or enhancement of existing systems and solutions.
> Surely 'pickpocket' is that way because (there) 'pick' is a verb, not a noun? Like.. 'roast potato' or 'tryhard'.

No, the normal thing to do in modern English is to say "pocket picker"†, where the head of the phrase comes after the modifier. As you note, the other order remains possible in non-archaic forms ("tryhard", "kiss-ass"), but it is unusual.

"Roast potato" is already right-headed; it is a kind of potato, not a kind of roasting or an entity characterized by its practice of roasting.

† That is, the normal way to express this kind of concept, not the normal way to express the particular concept of a pickpocket, where a conventional word already exists.
This question comes up every time articles like these come up and the answer is no, there is no reliable way unless you check what airplane you're boarding right as you walk on it. Airlines regularly swap out planes to cover up for delayed flights, weather, mismatched demand etc and the plane model you're shown as you're buying the ticket is not necessarily the plane you're gonna fly.
Just like security specialists can follow a phishing link, I'm sure employees with good people skills can be conned into sharing details with a deepfake colleague.

It also only works on a single GSM band in the US (which to be fair, I knew before I bought it), but I was hoping that single band would be usable.

I went back to using a Kindle because the experience is so much better all around. Vaguely intrigued by the new Boox Palma though.
The passthrough looks and works better than expected, but also a bit fuzzier than expected. I do appreciate how crisp the "desktop" windows look though.

One missing feature which caught my eye is water-resistance. It is pretty much standard on modern phones and for me it is critical. I still remember times when you can ruin your expensive iPhone by "water damage" not covered by the warranty.
> The next step will be having a designated spot for it to stay while I'm home.

Sounds like a good compromise, like a basket where you put all your keys you need when leaving home.

I think the core issue with attention is ultimately the same as with infinite scroll, and the reward mechanism.

For me the unease can be felt as soon as I unlock phone, it’s like a bunch of candies and there is this implicit feeling that you need to do something, to interact with something.

Then there is this angst like when you get physical mail and you anticipate who it might be from back when we wrote more letters. Only now with smartphones it gets repeated endlessly throughout the day.

Can we really force ourselves to slow down ? To live a simpler life ? I think it’s not possible until profound changes in our society such as basic income.

The smartphone in a sense is symptomatic of the rat race. It’s the only way we found to make things better when better is « doing more things in less time ».
This is a big improvement, but I'm not a believer that SQL is the most appropriate query lang here. Personally am more bullish on language models being trained with ORMs, as those normally capture much more information about the fields.

e.g. Passing in some of my more complex table schemas related to flight data and asking about overflights, the model struggles to resolve out information related to aviation. However, GitHub Copilot writes me a perfect call to Prisma with the same single line instruction + information spanning the rest of my codebase.
Do you really want your street to be dug open every month by a new sewage company laying a connection to one of your neighbours? Because they switched providers?
It’s somewhat similar.

There’s a very open question of whether any auto maker will actually allow next gen CarPlay to do all that stuff.
Congrats—That is awesome! Curious, how long did it take you to get your first customer?
I’m sorry, but too little, too late. It’s time for a new executive team incl CEO.

They breached the trust of their customers. I want to see new leadership, not someone who suddenly turns a new leaf.
As a firmware developer who has also done client-side Bluetooth development on Android, iOS, Windows, and Linux, I can tell you with 100% confidence that this just isn't the case. BlueZ is the best Bluetooth driver on any major platform, and it's not even close. The Windows one crashes constantly, and the iOS one has arbitrary nonstandard limitations and it tries to be clever by initiating pairing when you don't tell it to. BlueZ is the only one that actually implements the by-the-book Bluetooth spec, and does it without randomly exploding.
Really? It seems to me it was entirely caused by the pedestrian doing not one but two stupid things: 1) crossing the street when it wasn't her turn and 2) pausing in front of the car that then hit her.

The "run" part happened afterwards and should of course be punished harshly but the "hit" part seems to be her own fault.
I really appreciate the calm video without needless drama. By far the best video of it I've seen so far.
So this is essentially postgres only? Or how will it handle e.g. MS SQL Schemas and output?
I think so, yes. There are tons of benefits to learning other languages even if you never travel at all. Traveling is a great opportunity to start picking up a new one.

It also demonstrates respect for people of the country you're traveling to.
That's not the choice though. It's choosing one new car that doesn't have a bunch of safety recalls over one that does.
“Look it up” is not a good way to make a point. If you are making the claim, then you need to substantiate it.
The other datapoints have been merged into Boeing or they went away, Lockheed hasn't made a passenger plane for decades.

Gulfstream doesn't really count I think, because it isn't in competition with either Boeing or Airbus.
I have tried to use mspaint alone for creating documents complete with text and figures. (It’s not hard to compile a personal library of various symbols used in mathematics and elsewhere.) Works out pretty well, and the feeling of not being in any way constrained by the tool is a plus.

So it looks like it scores 76.5% on SQL-Eval [0], a bit behind GPT-4 at 83% and sqlcoder-15b at 78%.

What kind of applications would this be useful for? What can you build with an AI data science intern that's right 75% of the time?

As a programmer who always has to look stuff up when I SQL, I could definitely see asking something like this for a first draft of a query but it seems like I'm slightly better off asking the bigger models in these one-off cases (and I can run a 15b easily on my 64GB m1). If I'm in a corporate setting I'm not going to leak my schema into OpenAI's training data and there are definitely times when I'd want to run queries offline. Small/local models are great when you want to do a ton of queries (save $$).

A mini data scientist that could be queried by non-technical folks would be awesome but I wonder if there's a way to determine whether the query is falling in the 25% "incorrect" case... maybe there's a RAID-like consensus algorithm where you have multiple interrogate each other's answers to get a higher overall success rate.

Mostly thinking out loud :) but maybe ya'll have more ideas. Congrats on the release, OP!

Thanks for engaging constructively, and for the detailed responses. This whole area is fascinating to me, especially the history of how we think about concurrency from Milner ("Calculus of communicating systems") to Hoare (CSP) on down to the present day, and I really enjoy talking about it.

Great point. Thank you to clarify. Casinos in Las Vegas are private. They have the right to ask anyone to leave for any reason.
I think they would have to allow android auto similar to the way that cars with android automotive allow CarPlay to be used unless the car maker interferes.

Would they do that? I would hope so. But I honestly don’t know.
Self-employed, running https://buttondown.email as a solo founder. (My day generally looks like — 30% engineering, 40% onboarding + support, 10% marketing, 20% operations.) It was a profitable nights-and-weekends project from 2017—2022; took it full-time in 2022.

I think the thing that I would say about self-employment is that people understate the day-to-day flexibility and overstate the month-to-month flexibility. It is _addicting_ to be able to structure a given day exactly how you want it, and to take days off without having to worry about PTO; conversely, I've done a hither-to poor job of increasing my bus factor and it's tough to e.g. plan entire week-long vacations without knowing I'll need to carve out extra time afterwards to catch up on inbound issues.

Being self-employed is hard work for sure. I also _totally_ understand the cliche of "becoming a founder makes you un-hireable"; it's really hard to imagine going back to a traditional job after this, and I find it more fulfilling than anything else I've done in my career.
Where did I say that I don't understand it? It's a little telling that you said that.

Now, tell me you sat there watching it without being distracted by your thoughts.
I'm still frustrated that Apple (or really, any manufacturer), for all their money, can't figure out how to make a water resistant laptop. I would bet top dollar that even Tim Cook has had a spill once.
Turning your head ~90 degrees to the left just to be able to see Slack(or any other windows) is for me an productivity nerf, not a boost. What's wrong with Alt/Option - Tab instead?

In my life I experimented with 3 monitors, 2 monitors, one monitor, ultra widescreens, square aspect ratio displays, and a mix of several of those, etc. and I find the best productivity setup is when I have everything centered in my narrow/focused field of view, regardless of how many displays there are or what their aspect ratio is.

If I have too many or too wide displays, needing me to turn my head/neck to the side to see what's on them, it's just useless real estate and extra shit I have to manage and organize, wasting my brain power and concentration on managing the multi-monitor setup instead of on work.

FWIW, currently I have a single 32 inch(27 would work too) 4k display straight in front of me, and switching workspaces via Meta Key + Scroll wheel is way more desk-real-estate, monetarily and energy eficient and more ergonomic than moving my neck to another display on the side that's just sitting there displaying a picture that nobody's looking at 90% of the time.

But in a past job 12+ years ago, I loved having the two work-provided Philips 20 inch 4:3 1600x1200 IPS displays right in front of me. One of those in landscape with the IDE, the other rotated in portrait for the browser/documentation. That was peak DPI, windowing and ergonomics before 16:9 "HD" displays ruined vertical real estate and productivity with their "cinema" TV aspect ratio. Shame you can't get cheap monitors like those anymore in good condition(their CCFL lamps dimmed over time by now). Also, R.I.P. Philips display panels.

Anyway, back on topic, this video feels like justifying the purchase with flashy multi window gimmicks instead of showing actual ergonomic improvements. The proof will be in the pudding. Will the author stick to that sprawling neck twisting setup long term, or will he switch back to a more conventional setup once the novelty of his new toy wears off and his video got enough views?

FWIW 2, I have a Quest 3 for gaming, and could never use that for work due to the limited narrow FoV(~110°) that make it more like "binoculars vision" than actual virtual/augumented "reality". And according to the experience of MKBHD(Marques Brownlee) on YT, the Apple VP has an even narrower FoV than that. Ouch! That does not sound optimistic for productivity at all. IMHO 130°+ should be the norm for FoV going forward. Anything narrower and I feel like I'm wearing horse blinkers.

There's also an "unboxing video" from Dr Ian Cuttress and Jasmina Vasiljevic from a few months ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJpJkvNw9Ts . It's a bit out of date because a lot of the stuff that was promised as "coming soon" has actually happened.

I personally think making this open source is huge and am cautiously optimistic that the hardware has potential for general purpose parallel computing, so I've ordered a card.
Let's wait for statistics on the new plane :)
You can also remove the cellular modules without issue (other than online services not working), in my experience.
What all is included in these costs? Is the price shown the R&D to produce the first one, or does it include the cost of the production run as well?

After Fat Man & Little Boy, it's obvious we didn't just stop building bombs. The Manhattan Project's main development was the proof that the bomb was possible. Much more money followed making new versions that were even more powerful.
There was some announcement at the closing talks last year of the same venue being booked for the next 2-3 cons I think.
Neat, would you ever use a local model for that if it could work with ORMs?
Yes. Poor reporting is incredibly common and most journalists seem to have no clue about the difference between a first and a second derivatives. See also, most articles about the economy.
No no, having kids does not add to your environmental impact.

If it did, then I personally have no environmental impact; it's already all on my parents ;)
Isn’t Magnaride effective the same thing, perhaps turned down?
In Romanian and other languages "cosmonaut" and "astronaut" can be used interchangeably.
How is it faster in runtime? Isn't it all V8 at the end?
Chalk that up as another reason why employers shouldn't be able to fire people too easily.
The meaningful difference between handwritten notes and typed notes is not the device itself. It's not as if the computer screen erases your memory, or as if the pencil itself writes it. The difference that would meaningfully affect learning is the note-taker's behavior.

What OP has described is clearly a different behavior than either handwriting or typing.
> Deno, being spearheaded by the same person who made Node, seeks to move the industry forward and fix mistakes Deno (I assume you mean Node.js) made.

If they aren't able to evolve Node.js to overcome the mistakes (e.g. because they're technical in nature, or momentum of install base, or they don't have the leadership ability), I am worried that they might repeat the same pattern with Deno, since it isn't possible to NOT make any mistakes.

OTOH, having a clean slate that's learned from mistakes and you can bring a lot of your code along doesn't seem like a major impediment.

Is code written for any of the 3 runtimes generally transferrable? I realize some won't (e.g. Deno has WebGPU support, which is attractive to me), but generally?
Yes, but Americans are normal people and thus not suspicious. Those Indians however, something's up with them, can't you just feel it? They haven't even invented schools yet (British forgot to teach them how to do that), so why would they have assignments? Very shady, if you ask me.
Yep. It's kind of annoying to see people be so fatalistic about their self control that they think the only solution is to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I carry my smartphone everywhere for the useful functions detailed above, but the closest I get to social media is some idle HN commenting if I'm unexpectedly waiting around somewhere. It's really not hard to just not spend all day on Twitter of whatever. The device is just a scapegoat. It's like blaming a microwave for a poor diet, ignoring the usefulness of on-demand heating for better uses

I do resent things that require smartphone though. E.g. parking or ordering in some places. And especially if they require your device to be certified as locked down by the Google-Apple duopoly
