After owning my Vizio TV for like 4 years I am taking it back to Costco. The experience has gotten progressively worse with the updates. It is just so laggy and extremely frustrating. I'm going to tell costco the updates ruined the TV.

I am okay with your definition of "readability", but only insofar as you use it to criticize the reader.

Code should be judged on its own merit, and in that case your definition of "readability" doesn't really help us go anywhere.

Yeah the whole thing is a typical example of HackerNews readers not actually knowing anything outside of programming.

All this means is bank profits MIGHT be slightly lower this year. All of them set records for profits in 2023, so this seems like a big nothingburger.

If you've ever been told to wait in the parking lot at a fast food drive through, it's because the store has a metric on dwell time and throughput that they're optimising for.
This is a nonsense headline. What it actually states is that for all commercial property that is at least 30 days late on payments, they have $0.90 per dollar in reserves (specifically for bad commercial property loans).

Not all commercial property that is 30 days late will end up in foreclosure, and the value to the bank of property in foreclosure isn’t anywhere close to $0.

The current reserve ratio isn’t alarming when looking at historical trends. Even if it is too low, comparing the total value of delinquent debt to the total reserves in a headline is misleading at best.
Ask HN: Beyond the Basics – Advanced Insights into Startup Success Factors?
Hello, HN community,

We're all familiar with the statistics suggesting that having a PhD, being a second-time founder, or holding an MBA can significantly impact a startup's success. However, much of this data seems overly simplistic and doesn't capture the complexities of startup success.

To delve deeper, I've been analyzing various factors independently (given the nature of available data) and have compiled my findings in a spreadsheet. While this approach has its limitations, it's a starting point for uncovering more nuanced insights.

I believe there's more to explore and understand in this area, and I'm looking for your help. If you have access to more sophisticated data, methodologies, or relevant literature that goes beyond the surface-level analysis, I'd be grateful for your guidance and recommendations.

Here's what I've discovered so far: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LD1t-neBRcqM6EwlvCTM87axYZSukeFu17RIQJnvf18/edit#gid=86892079

I'm especially interested in any advanced statistical methods, comprehensive datasets, or literature that can provide a deeper understanding of the factors influencing startup success. Your expertise and advice would be invaluable in pushing this research further.

Thank you for your time and looking forward to your insights!
> you should fix that

how do you fix it?
Than themselves, over time. Or at least that seems like the implication. But this article includes very few numbers, and none are about tons of coal burnt or GWh electricity produced from coal annually. The figure they cite most consistently is capacity factor, suggesting that figure may be decreasing as coal is used for peaking.

Beyond the likelihood that this kind of usage pattern is actually worse for emissions, capacity factor itself is a misleading figure to use. If you build a single new coal plant that has lower capacity factor usage than the rest of your fleet the fleet average would go down despite you burning a larger quantity of coal.

I hope that's not what they are trying to claim, because it would ridiculous. But it's the closest thing this article cites to an actual trend. The rest is just people (or the authors) saying, "yeah, [despite all of the evidence] we expect coal usage to decline".
This is, if I read it correctly, banks reserving on average 90c against $1 of commercial real estate loans 30 days late - 10% recovery would be quite low.

> Developing markets are not going to scale back. The people concerned with climate change need to explain how any of this is going to work.

It was explained, in the Paris Agreement. The rich countries that got that way off decades of massive cheap fossil fuel use provide financial aid to the developing countries to develop renewable energy sources there so that the developing countries can get off fossil fuel without derailing their development.

That's the classic line of reasoning re rent/buy. But if you're taking out a loan to buy a house, you're still paying rent, you're just renting money instead of housing. And now you're responsible for everything that happens to your property for at least the next 5 years if not 30 just to make it worth it on the closing costs vs renting.
Maybe the earlier working years and experience, as well as money saved, was worth more than the opportunities the degree could open up. If not, and being passed over for jobs later in life is becoming a problem, maybe that original assessment was incorrect.

This is generally only something a person can have certainty about in hindsight.
For those looking for dumb TVs since Vizio sort of was a last holdout (although I’m reading they’ve recently become more garbage like), may I suggest the commercial kiosk versions of popular brands? I’ve found that you pay a little more but they don’t have the crappy OS installed and it’s just a dumb TV. You’re paying more to remove the ad experience manufacturers want you to use hence the price tradeoff.

Some comments have already covered the subcommands thing, but why are you using the XDG_CONFIG_HOME directory `~/.config/wrm` to store files? This should be for _configuration_ not _state_.

It sounds like you knew it was on the path of enshittification since 2017, so then WHY would you buy one 5 years into that descent that you decry?

I'm not sure that's a primary propaganda definer. Crafted propaganda is commonly half of a both-sides view from nowhere.
I don't know much about photolithography, but doesn't it rely on relatively expensive fixed masks prepared for each layer?

Assuming that doing the process you describe is sufficient, what's the ballpark of what "for cheap" means for you if you needed to print 1000 different fake tags, assuming many layers of "the desired pattern" to print the metal flakes?
Yeah, that's a fair question and I usually don't do that if user posts more than 1-2 posts per day. But it's hard to know how the account will be used in advance when user says "I made an account on Bluesky, follow me there".
That took me a minute. Silicon Valley Bank, I presume? I don't recall the details, but yes, there are historic examples of this being done well.
I don't think the syntax is the main consideration with Clojure.

It's an opinionated language: dynamic, with immutable data structures, hosted on the JVM. I like it quite a bit, personally, and it's been adopted in places where it makes sense.

But many-to-most projects are better off picking another runtime, and the syntax has little to do with why.

Every way of measuring suggests that Gen Z struggles with long term thinking and deferred gratification, so which do you think they’ll choose?
So if the government decided that it didn't like someone who has said something that the deem to be "anti vax" at any time in the future, what is stopping them from getting someone to say "I saw that thing that he said several years ago, and that convinced me not to get jabbed up? Nobody would be able to prove that not to be the case and the" anti-vaxer" that the government doesn't like can then be prosecuted with no defence.
This is clearly government over-reach and designed to target anyone that doesn't follow their narrative.
Dollars -- whether created by the Fed or fractional reserve banking -- are debt with interest due. Coinage is the exception but it is very small quantity-wise.

I am in Denmark where the real-estate market is a bit different. The sane way to do it now (with the expectation that interest rates drop):

1. Variable rate short-termed loan - these are adjusted to the index called CITA.

2. When the rate is sufficiently low, refinance with a fixed rate loan.

3. If the interest rate increases, sell of the fixed rate loan at a discount and refinance with either a higher fixed rate or variable rate, depending on risk profile. (In Denmark a lot of people sold their loan at rate 80 last year due to increasing interest rates).
It's perfectly decent for a CPU renderer, CPU rendering is just slow.
This could still backfire on you though. Say that you buy a house for $500,000 today with a 5% down payment and another 2008-esqe event happens and the value drops to $350,000. You are going to be underwater for the first mortgage when it is time to refinance the loan. I don't see how a bank is going to let you take a new mortgage for $475,000 on a house that's appraised by the bank for $350,000.
That's very interesting. It should be pointed out that all of NASAs data is open (by law - source I used to work there, subject to a short embargo for phds to be written). So anyone could have the same data underneath. But this analysis is cool.

So, the questions that remain:

1. Are lawns more or less likely to be treated with chemicals that harm waterways

2. Are lawns more or less likely to produce runoff of those treatments

3. Given answers to above is the net effect more or less than agriculture on our water.

I'm not seeing much that answers those questions specifically. It does appear there's regulations against phosphorous lawn fertilizer nowadays. But that's all I can find on a cursory search. I'm happy to believe they both are equally important nowadays.
Some video game actors are letting AI clone their voices
It's from the book diary of a wimpy kid. In the book there is some gross cheese on the street and someone is dared to touch it. Once they touch it they become an outcast, obtain the "cheese touch" and no one wants to talk to them. However once they touch someone else the "cheese touch" transfers to that someone else freeing the original person from being an outcast.

So cheese touch is the last person to touch that file. Every time someone touches the file the cheese touch transfers. And if that file broke the build or something you can find out who has the cheese touch on that file and t̶r̶e̶a̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶m̶ ̶l̶i̶k̶e̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶o̶u̶t̶c̶a̶s̶t̶ ask them nicely if they know what's happening.

Owl: Open-Source Always-On Wearable AI with Reference Device or Apple Watch
We built an always-on open source wearable AI. Listens to (and will soon see) everything you experience, all-day long. Supports a number of capture devices, including Apple Watch and a tiny wearable with days of battery life. Interactive assistance coming soon.

The convergence of powerful LLM and VLM models with low-power wearable devices opens up entirely new frontiers for human-computer interaction, including memory augmentation, pro-active life assistance, and distributed knowledge gathering. We believe in exploring this transparently and openly, and look forward to contributions :)

Today, we launch with Apple Watch, Xiao ESP32S3 Sense, and Sony Spresense support. Code and design files for the ulta-low-power reference wearable coming soon. We are looking for select people to give out units to and set up private servers for, to help us test and spread the word!

The server is written in Python and the display client is a native iOS Swift app (but a web client is included in the project as well for those outside the Apple ecosystem).
But that is just fantasy accounting. If the bank loans me $200,000 to buy a house no one rationally suggests the bank has $200,000. They have a $200,000 share in a piece of real estate. The real liquid value of the asset should be discounted by the cost of reclaiming that asset and what it might be expected to fetch on the market (which as we learned in 2007, might as well be zero in some cases). The long-term value of that asset would be marked up by the expected gains in interest from the loan.

The bank (or anyone for that matter) only "lost" the money if they mistakenly believed they still had it in the first place. This is the same kind of analysis that leads people to claim they only lose money in the stock market if they sell after stock price drops. For tax purposes in the US it does work that way. But in reality, the money was gone the minute you bought the stock. There is never any guarantee of a future buyer or for that matter a guarantee of a brokerage even interested in executing your order.

I had an old Vizio set that I really loved before they went "smart"; what I liked about it was that whoever designed it thought really hard about the bank for the buck for features. It was a fairly chunky set that would be a pain to wall mount but it had good-sized speakers in it. I had it connected to a soundbar but the soundbar wasn't much better than the internal speakers so I hooked up the soundbar to my PC in the "living room". A high-end Sony has 4-7 HDMI ports that will burn out over time (that's why you have a huge number of ports) but the Vizio had just two.

I had the Vizio fail on me and somebody gave me a bottom-of-the-line Samsung which is also not "smart" that I don't like anywhere near as much.

I have been thinking about getting a 4K HDR set or maybe a used 3D set for a long time and also about upgrading my computer monitor but with free TV sets showing up I never get around to it.
I grew up in Sunset Park, Brooklyn in the mid-'60s to the '80s, lived in Manhattan from the mid-'80s to late '90s. My neighborhood was predominantly Puerto Rican and Dominican, so it was full of the sounds of bongo drums and the early hip-hop scene. I skated at Roxy and later in the 90s at the Central Park Skating circle. Central Park Skaters have some die-hards still there, but it sort of was gentrified too in a way. Terms like "yuppy" and "dink" were used in a derogatory manner. I have always thought that class has been the true divider and not race having grown up a white minority in a predominantly Latino neighborhood. My group of friends were a motley crew of good kids and gutter snipes. I came away speaking fluent Spanish and the ability to salsa, so I never saw growing up in poverty as such a bad thing personally. I didn't have the internet or more than 13 channels to tell me otherwise. We didn't get a phone until I was like 11 and a color TV until then too.

As an individual, spread deposits across accounts or institutions to stay within limits [1]. There are account products that will sweep your deposits across other institutions in order to ensure full coverage. Fidelity's cash management account will cover up to $5M using sweeps [2], for example. Mercury has a similar product for business accounts [3].

If you're a larger business (>$5M cash equivalents on hand), treasury management in government money market funds instead of a demand deposit account. All roads lead to mostly US treasuries here.

This isn't really any different to what they've done is it?
The Federal Reserve is paying 5% interest on $7 trillion of reserves held by banks. Since this is in excess of what the Federal Reserve is earning on the assets on its balance sheet they are booking the difference as “deffered assets”. Little of this needs to trickle down to retail depositors given the Federal Reserves “ample reserves” policy so this is effectively a bank subsidy.

For all the talk of the Fed “printing money” this is literally printing money because there is no offsetting asset on the Feds balance sheet. Eventually the hole in the balance sheet is supposed to be closed by interest earned that would normally be paid to the US Treasury.

In other words the Federal Reserve has figured out how to directly bail out banks without the consent of Congress to the tune of $10B+ per month. The higher they raise interest rates, the bigger the subsidy. That should leave a lot of banks well capitalized to pick up assets of small regional banks and REITs that will eventually fail. Roughly $10B in bank subsidies can translate into $100B in loans with required 8% capital ratios.

The Federal Reserve considers their “ample reserve” policy a “public good” as in it is good for the public to see savings eaten away by inflation and higher public debt burden of interest payments to subsidize banks.
Thank you!.
I'll change it soon.
I don't want businesses to fail because their bank took undue risk, but the reality is that sufficiently large businesses should have their money spread around multiple banks to reduce the risk to the business.

A feature of the Apple platform is aggregation of control, but they put the control within iOS.

This is awesome. I don't have to chase down fifty-eleven other sites to manage the things I subscribed to on my phone or iPad, including the services I buy from Apple itself. It's an extremely consumer-friendly aspect of the platform, and one I would miss very much if I switched to something else.

But yes, to use this feature of the platform, you need to have access to the platform. As you have discovered, though, Apple DOES have a phone option as well, though I'm sure it's less convenient to use.

Honestly, it just seems like you were primed to be annoyed about Apple, and have failed to realize your complaints look pretty thin.
