I was talking about the Steam Deck. When the original is the Switch, the Steam Deck is the most logical comparison. "Steam" is just an app running on top of the Steam Deck, and that app isn't even privileged on the system. The user could remove it if they wanted to.

"Open" doesn't mean "open source" although in the case of the Steam Deck, it is both (not including the Steam application, but as I mentioned you can use the Steam Deck for whatever you want including removing the Steam application, so it's not a requirement or a blocker. I know someone who installed their own Bazzite flavor that has Steam removed and only uses Lutris to install GOG games).

Also Steam Store's requirements are only for games listed in their store. As has been mentioned, this is not a requirement for running on the Steam Deck. This is in sharp contrast to Nintendo.
I think the real oversight is not mentioning that the whole supply chain to provide the fossil fuel used to power the ICE or Hubrid. Its petroleum and fossil fuels all the way down. Even if those BEVs use fossil fuels to charge, there is no way that impact is as large as all the fossil fuels used in the delivering of fossil fuels to fill up your car with a gas tank (or the oil you regularly change).
David Shor was fired for pointing out (with data) that riots are electorally counterproductive, for example.
That's an interesting point. It seems though the man has written many books prior getting published so maybe he is just running through his back catalogue. Remarkable perseverance to keep going after all the rejections.
The gemstone comparison is quite apt. Hadn’t thought of it that way. Of course, humans will place meaning in anything/everything if they don’t train themselves not to do so. I’d love someone to do a blog where all it is is tearing apart junk articles. That’d be a fun Sunday morning read.
Aren't our muscles mostly limited by the brain deciding that we should definitely not apply enough strength to rip our own tendons off our bones? An infected "zombie" may not have such limiters.

And a human being can survive for weeks without food, days without water.
That seems like the Coanda effect more than anything.
Agree with you. How is this entrapment?

Is everyone up in arms here only because HN likes drones and feels like this is an encroachment on drone operators?
Which means it is not really artificial intelligence. Maybe the culture at Google prevented someone from raising this very issue. It’s almost like they ran a search, didn’t like the results, and someone said that results must include diversity equity and inclusion. So they deliberately programmed the algorithm to include diversity, equity and inclusion in all results and thereby negated any AI.
> why is using a drone to recover deer illegal

I don't know whether it is or not, or why, but harassing wildlife and livestock is certainly illegal and as someone who's had a drone flying over his herd of horses, I can assure you that it's for good reason.

> difference (or should be) between hunting and recovery or 2) if it matters if it's night

Are you seriously asking why hunting at night might be illegal? If it helps, I can tell you about my sister-in-law whose horse was shot and killed at dusk. "I thought it was a big deer."
Weapon designed for use in a war or otherwise some sort of conflict requiring the use of lethal force, which would be the exact opposite of peace, is named peacekeeper

These comments are being obtuse on purpose. Look at the name and look at what the name is on. The name peacekeeper is on a weapon that will only be used in times of no peace. Not a hard thing to see the irony in.
I think most other formats/software support things like splitting, "healing" archives and self-extracting archives by now, so the only reason I could think of is getting the "premium support" where you can quickly reach a human to help you with whatever problem you have. That might be more important for larger companies rather than individuals.
Sure, but it’s pretty amazing to me that ChatGPT didn’t just hallucinate a response to a generic request to decode a string. It recognized the string as base64, wrote a valid program to decode it, and returned the correct response.

Maybe I’m just old and amazed, but that seems pretty cool (terrifying?) to me.
Not sure why, but the visualizer is giving me a strong urge to boot Outer Wilds again.
All great advice. Avoiding the situations that require the "quick thinking" is not always possible, but this advice holds in a general case as well.

More that anything else I agree with a) taking the time, and b) keeping an option to avoid the answer altogether.

I don't know if I qualify as a "slow" or "fast" thinker - I actually think that no one qualifies as either and it all depends on your experience in the topic at hand - but I have my share of situations where I cannot get my thoughts together. With --age-- experience I taught myself to feel comfortable with taking my time (reasonable amount, though) or just saying "let me think of it and come back to you later" (if I feel the pause can become unreasonably long). Most people I am surrounded with understand and accept it well.
> But averages obscure what's really important.

The data would be far more interesting if you indicated the distribution of the data, perhaps as ranges of one standard deviation. Then it would succinctly express your point as well as be easy for you to quickly find outliers.
Summing up that topic that way is disingenuous at best.

The rate of self selection of healthcare is not that different in the US. While our old are more likely to seek care our young are way way less likely to.

A ton of that is unnecessary work to avoid getting sued, unnecessary work because of how our billing works (who would have thought that billing based on services rendered would result in escalating costs?), not to mention the complexity of the system helps make finding fraud more difficult.

It’s a shame this study appears to have been conducted so poorly, the topic is very interesting.

The study had people click on photos of where their interest would be if they were walking. They were not eye-tracked when actually walking. This is a significant difference. Particularly because at night your peripheral vision is much more acute at detecting shape/silhouette/tonal variation and in my experience also motion. The latter is very relevant for detecting threats.

I was poor growing up had to walk a lot, including at night. A lot of time was spent walking in not the best areas! Most of my teenage life seemed to be spent in the dark too, if I ever wanted to see friends! And then military service with endless night exercises. Add to that living in the UK with 17+ hours of darkness in the winter. I can definitely say that after decades of walking at night and many many thousands of miles (I have a nearly 200 already this year already) you learn there’s a certain way of ‘seeing’ without looking at something directly. So I very much question the claims of the study in so much as it states where your eyes actually look when walking in real world circumstances.

What I don’t doubt is that in general women have more to worry about and fear in public spaces, that their attention is drawn to different things than men in some circumstances and that there likely is a difference in scene scanning behaviour.

A proper study on this would be very interesting to see and might actually help better inform the design of public spaces for night time use.
Ah okay and I agree. I was just saying that they do seem to promote the growth of life easier from what we can study at least.

Well obviously you need to not use the same usernames/emails with your other identities. What does that have to do with IP addresses?
Sorry OP, for a bit of a diversion. I notice a lot of folks saying that "quick wit" or fast thinking or whatever, is just advance preparation (perhaps subconscious) or a memorized script, etc. It may be, but for those who think it always is, it definitely isn't.

My son is/was quite bright - reading at 3, reading the Economist and understanding 20% of it at 5, teaching himself calculus at 7. He got terrible grades in school maths, and his teachers thought he was lazy because he so obviously understood the material.

With some cognitive testing at age 6, he was placed "somewhere over 2nd stdev" (they just stop after a bit) for most cognitive subjects... but when taking response time tests he would drop to 2nd percentile. Second percentile! You could ask him to to find the root of a simple quadratic, and he would think about it and get the answer, then ask him to name the first five even numbers, and he would take about the same amount of time. His processing speed was (and is) just slow. In school, many marks went towards "flash tests" and speed competitions in math. He couldn't get through the first half of the tests, he'd run out of time. He's in third year honours maths at uni now, favourite topic is abstract algebra. They give him more time on tests.

My point is that this is real for some people, it's not just practice or technique or rehearsing.

I just don't get how this is clear evidence about "safety considerations"
Bullshit single payer would vastly decrease that number. Only having one payor who has from your perspective fixed rates is going to vastly simplify that process compared to the cluster of today.

Health insurance profit would also disappear as much would their administration costs.

You would still need to determine price structures and deal with fraud but you wouldn't need to network anymore.

That and also there's no rule that says a person who is generating responses ahead of time has to stick to exactly one possibility. When preparing for conversations it's important to walk down multiple paths at multiple branch points.

To the point you've been raising in this thread it is about being prepared to be sharp in a conversation, not to railroad the other person and/or come across like a politician on the Sunday AM talk shows.

The last mile is expensive. Even hooking up the customer to the line running outside their house is expensive. I've seen different customers estimate this at anywhere between $2000 and $5000 per premises. This assumes ~40% customer take-up rate so with more competitors, the cost to each goes up. It's one reason why overbuilds make no sense and municipal broadband is the best model for last mile Internet delivery.

Wireless bandwidth keeps going up. Wireless is already >1Gbps inside a building. What if instead of spending $5000 per house, you could use tightbeam wireless or highly cellular network with >1Gbps bandwidth? You may have spent billions on a network that it would take decades to amortize and have it be made worthless by wireless last mile delivery.
Wasn’t there a whole discussion like 5 years ago about deprecating multi-line doc comments (/** */ and /*! */) in Rust, in favor of using /// and //! exclusively, but a blind developer raised a pretty important accessibility issue with that, because their screen reader would always interject “slash slash slash” in the middle of a sentence when they were reading the docs.

I was trying to find the issue in a web search, but failed.

If I remember correctly it was important to keep multi-line doc comments in the language even if they are seldomly used, because it allows developers using assistive technology the possibility to read doc comments uninterrupted.
Yeah - I’m just shocked I didn’t get a hallucinated response for the query.

Nah, even the big ones are shown sauntering through the atmosphere at maybe Mach 3, trailing smoke and flames like lit pitch.

A city-sized asteroid wouldn't be more than a bright dot until the last seconds before entry, and at interstellar speeds it would take about three seconds to go from the vacuum of space to ground impact unless it had a very shallow vector.
What's happening under the hood (Windows translations layer, etc) doesn't really matter for this comparison of Switch to Steam Deck. It only matters what the user is allowed to do/run on the thing. On Nintendo where it's closed, the user is prevented. On Steam Deck where it's open, the user is not.
Yuzu is open source though ?? I don't get what you're saying.

That's the crux of it. In this case, we can ignore the drone aspect - spotlighting is illegal on its own - and there's no question he used a spotlight. It just happened to be mounted to a drone.

And spotlighting is illegal for good reason. Deer hunting (and most game hunting) is supposed to be "sporting" - there should be some challenge - tracking, hit the target, etc. Spotlighting takes away that sporting aspect - it causes the deer to freeze, making it easy to kill.

And if "spotlights for recovery" is legal, then "spotlights for hunting" becomes nearly impossible to enforce as a hunter would always claim "the deer was dead, I was just recovering it".
Ironically, many of the agile development practices which are widely used today were pioneered in the Chrysler Comprehensive Compensation (C3) payroll application. It was never able to produce an accurate payroll for Chrysler and couldn't replace the legacy system, although the project was considered at least a partial success in other ways.

Their point is women largely WEREN'T clicking in the lit up center, even though the men were. Your counter only presumes that men would look more like the women's clicking in real life, but you havent explained the observable difference in clicking behaviors by posing that, it's a different question.
Yeah, I think the call out here is specifically because you the ChatGPT interface doesn't have a search feature (on web). Interestingly, on their iOS app, you can search.

I don't think learning to map characters to alphabet letters is hard. I'm sure there are written languages in use that only have vowels and consonant but are still extremely complex, but generally what we see here is just mapping a known set of shapes to a new set of shapes.

It's learning what to say when you are faced with these characters that is difficult.
What leads you to say it's accelerating? The "war on drugs" was launched decades ago. Police have been unaccountable basically forever. For each right listed in the Bill of Rights, there have been egregious violations of it that have been blessed by the courts.

Yeah, and I should mention that the idea to make the foundry a big part of Intel's business came from a past CEO who was an MBA (circa 2010-2011), and it was the engineers in the company who sabotaged that effort.

History showed the engineers to be wrong, and here we are with Intel trying to compete with TSMC for customers.
100% of everything on my body right now and ~80% of everything in my wardrobe is made of the highest quality materials I can afford by US or EU labor, often by a unionized workforce.

Shoes: New Balance 990v4 (USA). Socks: Darn Tough (USA). Jeans: Texas Jeans (USA). Undershirt: Sloane (USA). Underpants: Duckworth (USA).
Shirt: Gitman (USA).

The only non-US things I own tend to be shoes (Italy, Spain) and jackets (UK). Or gifts.

YES it does cost more. But here's the thing: I have fewer, nicer, things that last longer and I almost certainly spend way less annually than someone buying $7 shirts from Shein or Walmart clothes.

So, buying trash made of the worst possible materials by slave labor is a choice unless you are the poorest of the poor in which case you, and only you, get a pass.
It's funny you bring up speed — people have different ideas of fast: if you need to run 50k tests, filesystem or database through ORM are usually not fast (you won't have those tests complete in sub-9s if that's the not-lose-focus time).

Having 50k tests complete in that time when backed by memory on a modern CPU is trivial (easily achievable with proper unit and integration tests).

I've been on one too many projects where tests were exactly slow because developers didn't care about testing just-enough when unit- or integration-testing — not to mention becoming parallyzed by any tiny change breaking a ton of unrelated tests.

What you are talking about are tests that cover even more than just integration points, and are usually described as end-to-end or system tests (depending on the scope and context of the code under test). I suggest having as few of those, but in general people structure their code badly so sometimes it's hard to avoid it (most web frameworks don't help, for instance).
The point is that the shock isn't the air hitting the vanes, it's the air hitting other air.

Similar to re-entry heating: the specific kinetic energy of the returning capsule is many times greater than would be required to melt and vaporize any material. So why do things survive re-entry? Because most of the energy is dissipated in the bow shock, significant distance away from from the capsule, where air gets heated to temperatures higher than the surface of the sun when other air slams into it. The purpose of the heatshield is to protect from radiative heating from the bow shock, not convective heating. Ablative heatshields do not work because ablation consumes energy which removes heat (again, there is sufficient energy going around to ablate the entire craft), but because they place a shade (made of ablated carbon particles) between the bow shock and the craft, which shields it from the radiative heating.

I'm a developer advocate at Doppler (https://doppler.com), and we are a secrets (API keys, certs, etc.) management platform. I create content that's aimed at informing readers about our product. One of the biggest challenges I've encountered is convincing developers to trust our platform in a world of zero trust.

What do you look for to feel comfortable?

No, this is not really a fantastic comment because the comment initially supports the thesis of the article, which is "change is slow progress, not a burst of activity" and it does this quite well with a biblical comparison, but then it veers off to "daily praying, helps with success in other areas", which is a totally different thesis. That's proselytizing instead of commenting on the article.

And your "+1, fantastic comment" smells, too; because you do not address the content of the comment, but only the original thesis of the posted article. So it should have been "+1, fantastic article". You don't even say what's so good in the comment that you praise.

Is this an attack by missionaries with day jobs in marketing? :-)

The fragmented state of the microcontroller market is pretty dire. Especially as there's more higher-level features being baked in to modern micros, every different manufacturer is implementing different APIs to do the same basic thing (whether that be I2C or things like MIPI-CSI). Having a unified API would really help portability (and would enable people to build workable emulators!)
