I also never heard of this 50-ohm-1996 thing. Any headphone output worth its salt in the last 70 years is going to have near zero ohm output impedance.

Some headphone amplifiers use cheap integrated circuits that can only drive outputs no lower than around 150 ohms, like the JRC4556 (a device that NavGuy has written quite a bit about, incidentally).

I suspect that's where that idea might come from? If you have a JRC4556 that doesn't go lower than 150 ohms, and the headphones are 32 ohms, you can pad in some series resistance to make up the difference.
So you’re saying all of technology is the result of saying “we could make money if we had a thing that did X”, and none of it is the result of “we found a way to do X because we thought it would be cool.”

If nothing else, you just dismissed most of mathematics
and basic physics.
As a meta comment, I was really surprised by the rapidity at which this story is falling off the front page. Yesterday there were three different submissions about this which reached the front page only to speedily fall beyond the third page.

I'd have thought that this would appeal to a large section of the HN crowd!
Not to defend GP, but if I suddenly went blind, I really don't know if it would take longer to learn how to use my existing tools with a screen reader or to learn new tools better designed for it. It would be a completely new and foreign workflow either way.
Fair comments, I wasn't hoping to use the IEEE standard as an appeal to authority, just clarifying I didn't make up the terms.

Sadly as you say, these formal definitions don't end up agreed upon, which is why it is always important to clarify what you mean when you use a certain word (which I hopefully did in the post).
Whether or not that have a legitimate case here, one has to question the wisdom of waging total war on workers. The balance of power between capital and labor in this country is already skewed massively against workers by comparable international standards. Do they really think tearing down the current pro-employer status quo will result in a new world where their power is even more unchecked? If so, I suggest they focus group some millennials.

> Adult initiation rituals tend to be 13-14 in every pre-industrial society (current and historic) because that's when it happens biologically; it is therefore not a surprise, in Western countries where it's delayed by a decade, that the people from 14-25 are not developing correctly.

I don't know how to define 'correctly' here, but in politically and economically advanced countries they develop in much more healthy and productive ways. People who are forced to be adults at 15 often never get a chance to mature.
If you always chop 100 add 100 then it's even more massively inefficient than the problem it solves. The router would at least need to have every protocol start with a header length value. Otherwise if you just take the first 100 bytes and stick it in the front of each packet and the header was only 57 bytes then you've suddenly got 43 bytes of garbage in the next layer's payload when you reassemble.

Keep in mind, most routers don't even bother supporting existing fragmentation because it's costly to implement in high speed hardware. So while you could theoretically have that dynamic next protocol header length value field it'd only be complicating something hardware makers already think is too complicated to be worth it. Making things unappealing complex is one of the common results of layering violations.
They had the right idea but implemented it poorly (overly verbose to work with, as is much of java). The end result were people taking too many shortcuts.
Well have you looked at the example? Browsers should be able to a access anY IP on the LAN. If that url is not password protected and let you just change settings via URL its really not the browsers fault for supposedly "giving access". Well thinking about it, it should probably not be possible in an iframe but they would just trick you clicking a link instead. People to not secure their routers and have default passes that is the big issue here. So of course them mitigating that makes sense.

Simple never giving access would mean people can not open their router interfaces, self hosted stuff on SBCs ... so you make no sense.
Apple’s products are almost entirely dependent on the internet and telecommunications networks and tech, all of which was funded and researched by the government.

This mindset lies at the center of neoliberalism and should be examined with nuance and perspective, since the quality of each individual's experience can vary wildly in a market which accepts such inequalities as necessary for the health of the overall system.

Nonsense and worse words. They aren't originalists, they don't care about the executive/legislative distinction. It's embarrassing farce to pretend that there is constitutional principle behind achieving their desired political goals. Roe would've been gutted were it law and the general incoherence of Alito and Thomas would have led the way.

Can people have limited liability like a certain forms of incorporation? Corporations are not just collections of people but they also enjoy certain privileges as well as having some obligations.
Analysis becomes much simpler when frequencies are low enough. Wavelength is large compared to the dimensions of the circuit so you can ignore the effects of wave propagation.
There are three uses for Pi. One is cheap computer, but Pi is never good at that and miniPCs have gotten cheap. Two is IoT, ESP32 is good choice for simple things and Pi Zero for bigger things. Three is for small servers and dedicated computers. Pi is perfect for that, it is cheaper than miniPCs, is smaller, and uses less power.

Lots of people in this post have mentioned uses like that. I want to make outdoors ADS-B receiver, and Pi will fit in enclosure and be powered by PoE. I want to make GPS time server, and Pi has PPS input on header. I want to make portable ham radio box, and Pi can be powered by 12V DC.

In my experience, it’s the opposite. Asking GPT4 for help is most helpful when I don’t know how to do something. Once I know what I’m doing, the mistakes become more obvious and annoying. I’ve learned something, but the chatbot makes the same mistakes as before, and it will keep making them.

Ironically, it’s because people can learn and chatbots don’t. (In the short term, that is; new releases will be better.)

I don't know if its mindset or my owner ignorance, but I find myself using Copilot and other language model tools as a teacher, a debugger, a reviewer, and and idea brainstormer. I find each use case to enhance my ability to think more deeply about my code and helps keep me more engaged in problem solving.

For some reason I find a inference from a compressed model which contains almost every notable open source program written in the history of humanity to be a decent sidekick.

My experience tells me no software engineer is an expert at everything. Having a tool which allows us to try new things faster is a good thing.

So can government create a branch that decides it can exempt people from liability? Isn't incorporation also regulated by a branch of the government. And I would argue bestowing limited liability on corporations is taking away a right from others (to recover damages). Is the consequence of this argument not that we need to go back to that Congress needs to decide on every incorporation and put it into law?
I like to think I'm a good fit, but of course, I need to improve my skills, like anyone else. At the end of the day, we are working with people, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Sometimes the most skillful engineer is the best fit for the EM position. However, I truly believe that to get the best output, you want team members to commit as a group and to feel that it's rewarding to achieve goals and have personal development. Unfortunately, not everyone has the luxury of a long-term perspective.
Been doing this for a decade+ and never nor peers are making 200k. Getting close after a lot of inflation though. Lucrative jobs exist but are not available because they simply won’t allow you to join.

It's the same. Taxing companies or people results in more cost to customers.

It's like thinking that people pay income tax but companies pay employment tax. Companies would happily pay you the employment tax, as they've already budgeted paying that much for you anyway. Thinking this is some free money that doesn't affect people is incorrect.
Hitchhiking cancer vaccine makes progress in the clinic
The Summer of Code project was unsuccessful for personal reasons. The project was also never even close to high priority, because the daemon just isn't all that interesting beyond performing its one job of implementing the functional package management paradigm. That is to say, for a long time there was very little to be gained from a rewrite.

The most recent project has only just started and is spearheaded by Chris Baines, who has extensive experience with the build side due to his work on a (Guile-based) build coordinator used by one of the two major independent build farms.

I don't think the older branches contain much that needs to be ported; most of the work from past projects has in fact made it into Guix already and is used for other features --- just not in the daemon. If the Guile daemon project is successful, the daemon will incorporate many of these existing features for build isolation and coordination.
I’m not a lawyer and I don’t know - however, most commentators do agree that Congress would likely be forced to do a lot of boring work soon.

5 Gbps is pretty slow. Internet carrier routers typically connect to each other at 100 gbps (or 400 gbps these days) and a single router will have many such connections, so Tbps of bandwidth, often costing about the same as that IPS FPGA hardware (well, the routers go up to rack size in which case you'd probably want to compare to a rack size IPS box cost).
It’s also ripe for “flame wars”. Not that this is that. More that HN’s algorithm lowers stories where there’s nearly as many comments as there are points to avoid flame wars, or so I’ve read. Make sense.

Plus they're trying to unseat Assad because he is blocking the development of the Qatar turkey pipeline project that would see Europe able to route around Russia for natural gas.

Imagine you're Disney and you want to crack down on merchandise infringing on your IP. You type [site:etsy.com "minnie mouse"] into Google and get 3.8 million results. There's another million results for "iron man", 2.1 million for "avengers", 6.8 million for "star wars", etc. That's just the likely infringement on a single marketplace. I don't think this is a scale too small to notice. How many people would Disney have to employ to review every listing before making a claim, and continue to do so as fast as the world population can make additional unlicensed copies?
Not sure what the approach of this library is, but can't you generate a nonce from a larger alphabet, hash the column values with the nonce `hash(nonce || column)`, and crypto-shred the nonce in the end.

Then, during hashing you just need a constant immutable state, which effectively expands the hash space, without incurring the mutable state overhead of replacement strings strategy.

Just think about it from an energy use standpoint. The average citizen has very little energy they dedicate to community and social system support. This includes education, voting, lobbying etc…

This is a basic requirement for an electorate to self govern, everyone has to give input and that input should align with their well considered interests. The amount of work that takes is relatively immense for the amount of impact that people feel they have as a result.

On the other hand you have in effect every for profit entity putting as much possible energy into rent seek and increase margins for the majority owners by offloading any possible externalities of inequitable ownership or resource hoarding.

Corporate lobbies have perfectly captured the political process to the extent that nobody even questions it anymore. Including legislators.

A simpler solution using existing infrastructure is simply to require a takedown notice to include the copyrighted work's registration information.

It's not necessary to register a work with the US Copyright Office to have copyright protection, but registration is necessary to file an infringement claim in court.

Registering takes time and money, and the registration database is public. Simply requiring a URL that points to the work's registration as part of the DMCA notice should take care of the problem.
Ah, womp womp, you'd think that at least would be correct.

My guess is they got enough shitty/badly done forms from real entities filing real reports and got threatened with lawsuits when they were rejected instead of the filers just going "oh, we'll fill out what we agreed to fill out"

Sigh.
I've never run into that issue with Ryzen Master, but only because using Intel's overclocking tools had already trained me to disable virtualization-based security. Intel's tools also had issues with that feature, and it took them a surprisingly long time to update their error messages to explain what was preventing XTU from running.

Aside from any driver signing issues, I think there's also an underlying common issue that the virtualization layer needs to pass through the CPU model-specific registers (MSRs) that are the hardware interface for tweaking power and clock limits.
It wasn't a problem when everyone used `master`!!

[I'm a guy.] Super interesting comment, particularly your insight that these "Chads" are removing women from the dating market for other guys.

This assumes that the women are naively monogamous, which may be true for some women. I know it's not true for all women in the Bay Area.

Is the overall situation "sad"? It is what it is. If, as you point out, men succeed based on their dating skills, rather than (only) the value of their RSUs, I think that's fair.

As for the women, I've always liked the idea of revealed preference, i.e. learn what people want by observing their choices, rather than by what they say they want.
That sounds delicious! Recipe please ^_^ !

A common theme in papers like these is that the model chooses word predictions greedily, instead of “thinking” and gaining confidence in its next word prediction.

This begs the question - why don’t people force the model to generate more tokens, until it has very high confidence in its next word prediction?

I can imagine several ways of doing this.

You should read the linked decisions in the article.

The FCC learned about the dead air because the stations themselves filed Special Temporary Authority paperwork with the FCC specifying that the station carrier was not active during that time.

So, it was not active monitoring, but passive paperwork review, triggered by the license application itself, that caused the ruling.

The FCC does not actively monitor stations in any way.
