It's more so the fact that Asian countries still have low margins manufacturers with little to no overhead.

I can open a garments or shirt factory with minimal overhead anywhere in Asia, but if I tried opening a Maquiladora here in the US, I'd be facing a 10-20 year federal sentence like those guys who brought Thais illegally to the Garment District in LA in the 90s.

All I need is 10 sewing machines, 10 semi-skilled laborers, some consistent electricity, and a bit of cash to pay off the local labor inspector. I def can't do that here in the US anymore.
Can you guide me where I can read up more on this?

There was a gyroscope based motorcycle which I thought was more the Apple Style. I was imagining single person cars just like they make all their devices single user. Get one auto-driving bike for each member of the family and you would ride laying on your back so you could take a nap if you wanted.

that's what the YouTube Kids app is for. you log in with your Google account and you create the kids accounts. you can select content by age and blacklist channels or you can whitelist only. Whitelisted only is probably the only way you can block some of the more annoying channels like Vlad and Nicki, they seem to have literally dozens of channels all full of the same drivel.

additionally, iPads have strong parental controls. you can limit time overall on the iPad and you can limit time on specific apps.

That highlights a different difference. There aren't that many bugs in Deno; there's a lot of missing functionality (especially if you have node/npm-colored glasses on), but Deno is pretty much the highest quality "full Javascript runtime" when NodeJS compatibility is not a requirement.

Bun seems to be.. essentially a rewrite of NodeJS with the same basic plan.

Raymond Carver defined minimalism as “the gradual accretion of meaningful detail, the concrete word as opposed to the abstract.” McCarthy’s writing seems to fit that to a T.
Yup. This is going to fuel the return of the original Yahoo!-style human-curated internet search engine.

Aside from Google already being polluted to uselessness beyond redemption, the firehose of AI trash just makes it impossible, unless they are both motivated and able to get Gemini to discern between real content and trash (both unlikely).

Is Nintendo even making money on the Switches themselves ?
I don't think this is likely. There is a convincible future where Nintendo publishes more and more games outside of their hardware platforms, so Valve needs to keep good business relations with Nintendo.
It's no rumour that Apple was developing vehicle autonomy. Their test vehicles were driving around Cupertino for years.

The Freaks Came Out to Write review – how the Village Voice changed journalism
'motivate customers to visit' - Some people like cheap stuff. Some amount of people who are not willing to pay x for a meal at noon might be willing to pay 0.9x at 2 pm. Other people have money and tight and inflexible schedules. Some of them may be more willing to visit at noon and pay 1.1x than they would be to visit at noon, wait in a 10 minute line, and pay x.

'enhance customer and crew experience' - Neither customers nor crew like it when the restaurant is busy enough that the line gets long. By making it more expensive to eat at peak times and less expensive to eat at off peak times, they think they can smooth out the demand schedule. Of course whether that's a net positive to any given consumer depends on their relative preferences on meal time, wait time, and meal cost. But the potential is there at least. On the crew side, a smoother demand schedule means they can either schedule fewer people on longer shifts, or if they keep schedules the same reduce the amount of "crunch time" during each shift.

They didn't just sell books and CDs either. They sold tax free books and CDs. It is easy to forget now that no one paid tax for anything sold online in 1999.

Of course, no one brags about how they bought Borders stock in 1995 today. I am sure if you did you were up huge in 1999 but not so great if you held.
i'm not saying canada not buying f35s to begin with was necessarily the correct choice, but the fact that they don't have a massive GDP and have now managed to purchase them for a lower price isn't "infinitely worse" than if they had bought them to begin with, it has lucked out in their favour

Nix is becoming increasingly popular though. It's an improvement over the GoboLinux model, which requires manual maintenance of version directories (e.g., /Programs/Xorg/7.0). Nix does away with that by choosing the install path of packages based on the hash of their build recipes.
I have been doing E2E testing exclusively for close to a decade on several apps and it works great.

Note, not integration, E2E. I can go from bare vm to fully tested system in under 15 minutes. I can re run that test in 1-5 (depending on project) ...

Im creating 100's of records in that time, and fuzzing a lot of data entry. I could get it to go "even faster" if I went in and removed some of the stepwise testing... A->B->C->D could be broken out to a->b, a->c, a->d.

Because my tests are external, they would be durable across a system re-write (if I need to change language, platform etc). They can also be re-used/tweeked to test system perf under load (something unit tests could never do).
I think the unwritten rule is that subspace communication takes precisely as long as the plot requires it to. (Especially in the more modern series)
I've only ever experienced Dutch dubs in kids' TV but I feel like these examples show that your Dutch model may need some work. I can't judge other languages well, but I found the Taiwanese documentary dub especially hard to follow. I wouldn't have expected Dutch to be in there for how little the language is spoken and how often Dutch speakers will understand English, though!

It seems to do a pretty interesting thing where the first male voice has a bit of a Flemish/southern accent while the second male voice has an accent much closer to "Netherlands TV" Dutch. Reminded me a bit of the Lion King dub where the dub studio used Flemish voice actors to do the jungle animals (and Dutch voice actors for the savannah animals) to underline the "different world" Simba arrived in.
it doesn't sent my conversations, the shape of the rooms in my home, or my physical activity levels back to Apple, so there's that.

Its Elon. He has obviously also hired some very, very smart dedicated people, but undoubtedly he is making all the key decisions and also driving the project forward.

If you don't believe me, believe Tom Mueller - Ex SpaceX Propulsion CTO - He was with SpaceX from the very start and the Merlin (Falcon 9 engine) and early work on the Raptor (Starship engine) was him. Tom has commented in various articles and on his twitter (I'm too lazy to find a link) that Elon was 100% involved in the technical issues and design of everything, and knew his stuff. He has said this after leaving SpaceX too, so it not just don't-badmouth-the-boss going on there.

Yep, it seems Elon has also become a hard-right asshole in recent years. Maybe he always was?

In college I had a PC with a 100Mhz bus. One day I was defragging the hard disk--as one did in those days--and by chance had the PC case cover off and also the FM radio on. As I swept past 100Mhz I picked up the unmistakable KKSSHH CHKS CHKS CHKS coming from the data going over the bus. For a minute or two I thought the NSA bugged me.
I mentioned to a colleague today the sweater I was wearing was 12 years old (discussing this exact fast fashion subject). He said "you just kept it in the closet for 12 years?" - Nope, it's my fav sweater to wear. I handwash it and hang dry it, as I do all my clothes, and it was made in Portugal from quality materials, works out to $35 a year (~$400 sweater).

I think I recognize the author of this from /r/localllama, where plenty of other people are building similar frankenstein rigs. This post only mentions Intel setups, but AMD Epyc Milan and Rome based rigs are also very viable alternatives. They're a bit more expensive, but much better perf/watt, and the incremental price increase after factoring in a lot of GPUs is fairly slim. With 7 PCIE bifurcators on a motherboard such as the AsRock ROMED8-2T and a 14 risers, you can get up to 14 GPUs at PCIE 4.0x8.
How do you keep metadata around well enough to log in a structured fashion between apps? What if one app is a queue listener, which calls an HTTP service, etc. etc.

I personally think the challenge is in passing around the metadata.
Ask HN: What would you like in a workflow builder inside a CRM?
We are building a CRM software which converges a lot of tools. Think of your customer support, engineering, sales working out of one unified system, eliminating the need of dozens of tool and tools for stitching tools together.
On this unified system of record, we are building a no code/low code workflow builder(ofcourse it will have external triggers and actions both).
What would you like in this workflow builder?
What is the best and worst in workflow builder(or similar solutions) in tools like Zendesk, SNOW, Jira etc?
Particularly fed up with workflow automation tools, which does not give me better logic constructs to use on the UI. Zendesk only have an "if" statement which you can use in their workflow builder. Can't imagine ANY sophisticated real life process implemented there. ServiceNow has a lot of these logic constructs but the design is absent there. You need training.

What do you guys think about the AI piece in workflow builder? Anyone finding "give me a prompt and I will make a draft workflow for you" approach helpful? Zapier has introduced it. Does it work for complex cases?
Is this not, like... super common?
Have you seen an f14 in person? An f35?

Wildly different. For one the f14 is massive! And it's tail hook is like the size of a medium man

Exercising increases my appetite. But I find it's what I eat that counts. If you eat mostly healthy food, e.g. vegetables, then how much you eat becomes less of a factor.
Wasn't this in the latest Indiana Jones movie?
it's really down to company culture: how many MBAs and PMs it normalizes.
With certain requirements from large corporations switching from usage or license-based pricing to models such as charging per employee in the overall organization, it's hard to imagine it doesn't involve a little greed. It makes the choice even easier when clear alternatives are much more economical.

Imagine for example you're a small shop with your own budget in an org the size of Alphabet with a couple of Java servers that you purchase support to the tune of $5k/year and then they all of a sudden want to charge $1,000,000/month because there are ~200k employees within your larger organization.

It gets even more convoluted when you get into hardware support, where the support itself outside of warranty can be more expensive annually than replacing the hardware and getting N years of support with warranty.
Top 5-10 vegetables you eat in a week and in what caloric quantiy: go

I find that I only like very few vegetables.

A small portion of broccoli or spinach

Maybe some romaine or (useless) iceberg lettuce

That's kind of it... 100 calories of zucchini smothered in oil/butter really isn't going to change my life?

I'm probably not alone and this is why America is fat.
If you are testing a microservices "ball of mud", you can (and probably should) setup a testing environment and do your integration tests right there, against real dependencies. The tool seems nice for simple dependencies and local testing but I fail to see it as a game changer.

Strictly, the difference between /bin and /sbin versus their siblings in /usr has to do with what you can fit on the RK05 disk pack that the system boots from. If it comes up too broken to mount the
DECtape (or if you're lucky and your institution's not cheap, the second RK05) where /usr lives, you'd better be able to fix it with whatever's in /, because until you do that's all you've got. Hence keeping some binaries there, but not too many; your root volume is only a couple megabytes large.

Too, if /usr is on tape, that's a lot slower in random access than even a contemporary disk, which matters because you also don't have enough core memory to avoid paging binaries - so even things you might not need to fix a broken system still may be worth putting in /bin if you can afford the space, if they're frequently enough used to be worth the speedup.

I believe the difference between /bin and /sbin per se had to do with dynamic versus static linking, with /sbin reserved for statically linked versions of binaries critical to bring up or repair a system - after all, if something in /bin is linked against libraries in /usr/lib, then you still won't be using it if you can't mount /usr.

I'm not so sure about that part, though; it's been a very long time since any of this mattered at all to how Unix is operated in practice, and it is really only of interest to those curious about how the constraints of early hardware informed the evolution of historical filesystem layout conventions. Even I'm not old enough to have actually worked with such systems, although I don't miss it by much, and am certainly old enough to have studied a great deal more about them than some.

edit: If you're really interested in the topic, then you should certainly spend some time with Rob Landley's collection of historical documents [1], which Google is apparently no longer competent to find based on their content - some of this I was actually looking for in the course of composing this reply, and only found it when I happened to search the name on a mailing list message linked in another reply here. So much for "information wants to be free" - apparently on today's Internet there's no money left in making information able to be found.

> It's not all types of clouds, obviously; otherwise, we'd never hear complaints about eclipses being spoiled by overcast weather.

Yes, why it's the eclipse-disappearing type of cloud that disperses during an eclipse, don't you know? Clouds that don't disappear are of other types.

This is one of the axioms of the cloud type system which ensure its soundness.
That’s just a pressure differential, and not what the OP meant by ‘negative pressure’. 100% of the lift force on a wing is attributable to the pressure differential across it, after all.

They (or their stackexchange source at least) are - like the referenced article and as is commonly done in aero engineering - subtracting out ambient pressure as a reference pressure, and then viewing pressure above the wing as ‘negative’ and pressure below as ‘positive’. It’s a convenient choice to make, for various reasons, but it is essentially an arbitrary one.

The problem comes when you then go on, like OP did, to come across statements like “how much lift is coming from the negative pressure - about a half”

Now, since in analyzing the pressure we have subtracted the reference pressure and made a zero point in between the low pressure value above the wing and the high pressure value below it, it actually shouldn’t surprise us at all that ‘about half’ of the lift seems to be attributed to the positive pressure below the wing, and half to the negative pressure above the wing.

This is just saying that half the lift on the wing is attributable to the first half of the pressure differential across the wing, and about half the lift attributable to the other half.

One of the problems of using a relative pressure and thinking about negative air pressure is that it gives the impression that negative air pressure, like positive air pressure, can grow arbitrarily large. It can’t. You can’t have a negative air pressure lower than negative ambient air pressure, because the absolute air pressure cannot go below zero.

But what you’re talking about is a relative pressure differential. We can have an arbitrarily large negative pressure differential because we can have an arbitrarily high pressure on one side of it.

Hey there,

This is Gabe, the founder of Zenfetch. Thanks for sharing. We're putting together an export option where you can download all your saved data as a CSV and should get that out by end of week.
If your running podman you should pull your production deployment configs down and tweak those. You will get a much more complete env that way (routing, network, scale, load balance)

https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/kubernetes-workloads-podman-... << as a for instance ;)
Another technique I've found very useful is generative integration tests (kind of like fuzzing), especially for idempotent API endpoints (GETs).

For example, assuming you have a test database with realistic data (or scrubbed production data), write tests that are based on generalizable business rules, e.g: the total line of an 'invoice' GET response should be the sum of all the 'sections' endpoint responses tied to that invoice id. Then, just have a process that runs before the tests create a bunch of test cases (invoice IDs to try), randomly selected from all the IDs in the database. Limit the number of cases to something reasonable for total test duration.

As one would expect, overly tight assertions can often lead to many false positives, but really tough edge cases hidden in diverse/unexpected data (null refs) can be found that usually escape the artificial or 'happy path' pre-selected cases.
This sounds like a privacy nightmare as described if there aren't guardrails. 'Dump everything'

Can pretty easily achieve this with structured logging in GCP with their metrics explorer. Pretty cheaply I might add. Sentry can also do a bit of this if you're on something like fly.io (they offer a year free).

I don't think either would completely replace tracing in a complex system for me. At least not in the context Ive worked.
I'm kind of ashamed to admit this but I have multiple servers that are just Go binaries running in tmux...

I've meant to configure systemd but haven't not gotten around to it
