"better"? You're giving Epic too much credit. Just see the Play Store competitors like Samsung or Huawei: Full of ads, and in general a terrible experience.

I don't know. But, just above this in my comment history, someone claimed they'd never seen an English language contraction of "who are". So maybe we're all siloed. Fortunately, fortifying our organizations/circles with a diversity of perspectives can help compensate for our individual blind spots.

Yes. See https://adamswebsearch2.nrc.gov/webSearch2/main.jsp?Accessio... "Rulemaking: Regulatory Framework for Fusion Energy Systems, NRC Public Meeting, July 12, 2023" and especially the graph on page 27, "Relative radiotoxicity" vs "Time after shutdown (years)"

Also see https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML2325/ML23258A145.pdf "Fusion Systems Rulemaking: United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Preliminary Proposed Rule Language". The NRC are already proposing to regulate fusion reactors much more like particle accelerators (which can produce medical radioisotopes, for example), and less like fission reactors.

What are you on about? Today they were in the green and on the day this played out, March 6, the needle barely moved.

The dip started 2 days prior on March 4, the day the EC announced their ~$2B fine based on TFEU, which has nothing to do with the DMA. One the appeal is filed it’ll go back up, as it’s already almost back to before that news. And then a week later when Cook farts, it’ll dip again.

Such is the nature of stocks, at least on the short term. On the long term, 1Y and up, it’s solidly in the green.

Not to mention that stock prices and revenue (which is what they’re talking about) are two separate things.
Indeed. The creator of wordle started with a reasonably exhaustive list of ~13000 five letter words. That list won't be copyrightable.

But the first prototype wasn't so fun, because it would often pick a word the player didn't even know existed.

So the creator (and his partner) manually classified the entire list based on if they knew the word or not; splitting the list into two groups, words which might appear as solutions and words that won't appear as solutions but will still be accepted.

This manual classification step and splitting it into two groups makes a very good argument for the wordlists meeting the criteria for copyright.

If I’m understand you correctly, yes, that would count as manual control - and I’d be impressed to see you fly it!
What? Why would they? Digital piano sounds still can't reproduce the richness of dynamics and texture of an acoustic piano. Practising on a digital keyboard and then performing on a real piano is jarring enough, let alone using an instrument with zero haptic feedback. This is pure gimmick.
"This is why we can't have the government file taxes on our behalf: because Intuit would no longer be collecting rent, and rent-collecting must be protected at all costs."

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/03/04/direct-fi...

The US government took the initiative to create this system. AFAICT, Intuit will not be collecting rent for anyone who uses it. Perhaps this will not be a significant number of people but this nonetheless contradicts the assertion in the parent comment that the US government must protect Intuit's rent collection "at all costs".

Got it, so the underlying infrastructure (the inference nodes, if you wish) would be something to be solved outside of Hatched, but it would then allow to schedule inference tasks per user with limits.
I think it's a good idea and I would support it.

But something like that would never be implemented by our current government.

They'd likely call you racist or xenophobic just for suggesting it. For most Canadians, the next election can't come soon enough. Hopefully the likely to win opposition will make some changes.

> The attackers are using Motorola's trademark to trick people.

I am sorry, this is absurd.

Firstly my right of ownership over my device is greater that Motorolas twice-removed claim over trademark, which is only a small part of its value.

Second -precedent. We have laptops, there is unblocked boot loader and this has never been the norm. If a crime occurs, it’s dealt with by the justice system, not by taking away my rights.
In hindsight, this is somewhat obvious due to the anti addiction properties of GLP-1 agonists.
It's good to be empathetic towards anyone suffering, but you must also consider how much suffering is avoided when technology advances.

Yes, washing machines caused suffering for women who made a living manually washing clothes. But they alleviated far, far more suffering by automating a physically difficult task.

My guess is that widespread adoption of new technology almost always reduces net suffering in the long term. Prioritizing the reduction of suffering today at the cost of more suffering in the future seems short-sighted.

This sounds like an interesting way to ensure accurate quotes:

> To accurately generate the exact passages in the given corpus, we employ a trie-based constrained decoding algorithm (Chen et al., 2020; Cao et al., 2021; Lu et al., 2021) in which the generated tokens can be constrained in the dynamic vocabulary. Specifically, instead of generating a token from the entire target vocabulary at each step, we use a prefix tree (trie) to constraint the target vocabulary and ensure that the generated content is within the corpus. During the construction of trie, we remove stop words from the initial token to improve semantic representation of the trie.

Keyboard Maestro is also a fantastic app for this kind of stuff, and even adds a reasonable delay between keystrokes (something like 0.05 seconds) to prevent any weirdness.
He went from controlling three seats on a six-member board to having one seat "as CEO" of a seven-member board looking to add even more independent members. Also, he can't pull the "the board can fire me at any time" card with a straight face anymore. He kept his job, but he didn't win by any stretch. There is a good chance he will move on to another role.
When stopping down you also can use the distance markings on the focus ring effectively (it's easier to do with sufficient depth of field, and with a DSLR you can practice as much as you like). Over time you can do this intuitively, like how a professional focus puller does on a film set.

Another intuitive skill that can be easily practiced on a DSLR is metering by eye. Take a couple test photos to dial in the right exposure for the conditions then use that as a baseline when making adjustments for a reflective subject, areas in shadow, etc. With a modern mirrorless camera and EVF this skill may not be that necessary though.
It wasn't a company event, at least not an event of the company he worked for. It was a talk by someone from his company at a conference promoting Israeli tech companies.
I think it is like writing an OS. It's not hard[1], but there is little value in a novel OS that isn't Linux x86_64 or Win32/x86 ABI compatible. From [2][3]:

> The kernel market currently is dominated by Parasolid and ACIS, which were introduced in the late 1980s.

> Autodesk ShapeManager is a 3D geometric modeling kernel used by Autodesk Inventor and other Autodesk products that is developed inside the company. It was originally forked from ACIS 7.0 in November 2001,

... so it's quite like OS kernels. There's WinNT, AT&T UNIX, couple advanced forks of UNIX, and GNU/Hurd.

You are claiming that absurd conflicts within a political party mean it cannot be taken seriously, but the Democrats have the "blue dog" faction and a prominent representative who recently proposed a fifty dollar an hour minimum wage law and the Republicans stretch from Romney to the colorful current party leadership.

If you were really thinking about whether or not to take Libertarians seriously then you might take some lessons from the book The Righteous Mind that points out moral axes and notes that liberals tend to focus on care and harm, conservatives focus most on fairness and cheating, and libertarians with their focus on liberty are just behind both of those. It might also be interesting to consider the content of Libertarian meetings which are often dominated by discussion of cannabis legalization, right to repair, and arguments for a universal basic income.
> Car-centric sprawl means people can buy a single family house for a little over the cost of construction. There are good aspects to it.

Only because the cities subsidize the suburbs and rural areas.

If you made the suburbs and rural areas pay for their own road construction and maintenance, for example, those houses would be vastly more expensive.
> Doctors (including my MD colleagues) do not get together to limit the number of doctors available.

thanks; I indeed read though the first part too fast... "HEAD is either a reference or a commit id. the reference must be a branch if using git commands" indeed allows git commands to make detached heads (that surprised me a bit given she pointed at git branchless...)

> If a VP is "low tier" then isn't calling them a VP at all just title inflation?

Apple is a big company and they have more than 100 VPs. This naturally creates "tier" between them, since a single CEO cannot manage all of them.

> At what point is a person responsible for the consequences of their actions regardless of intent?

It depends, but when it's something like fighting back against one of the most powerful supranational government entity like EU, the most senior leadership as well as the board must be involved. Not even Tim Cook cannot decide it alone and they clearly didn't want to escalate this matter to that level so quickly pulled it back.

Ironically, they were regulated into existence (in the US, at least) thanks to the CAFE standards, which require vehicles to obtain a given milage per area. Large cars therefore have less stringent pollution standards than small cars.

Exactly! If the rules are clear from the start that youcwill offer the switch, then it's useless, so dont bother.
If the rules are not clear that you will do it, then maybe you only offered it because you know I have the right one and want to avoid the loss. So it's worst than useless.

If the value increases, there is this same question, if you can know if I'm right or not, then you offering me a milion is just a trick isn't it? Also, you clearly wouldn't just give out one milion anyways, you dont havr the budget for that.

The only case is seems useufl to switch is when additional information was added in a guaranteed way (monty hall paradox)

IMO you're totally right, but it's nice and more idiot friendly that underlying representation is always geometry based and not polygon based. Fusion 360 lets me unfillet an edge in an imported file just by hitting Backspace, which AIUI that takes more time and skill to do in Blender.

It's Illustrator and Photoshop difference, Ai is superior to Ps if you're having to select and move individual brush strokes all the time. Otherwise it's near polar opposite of course.
Adding some detail to your points 1 and 2, the ETFs are currently buying up over 12,000 coins per day and growing. The miners are producing 900 coins per day which will fall to 450 coins per day in 40 days due to the halving.

Demand is outpacing supply by 12 to 1 at the current pace and all signs point to further tightening as demand continues to grow and supply remains programmatically fixed and soon to fall by half.

The world has never before experienced an asset with perfectly inelastic supply and exponentially growing demand.

It is the perfect storm.
I completely agree. Tools like Solidworks are irreplaceable and save ton of time during design. Especially for complex parts and assemblies.
What's your basis for that? I'm very skeptical. Intuitively, whether a word is within the working vocabulary of a sample of the population is an objective fact, not creative expression.

Do you know of any case law to the contrary?

And, as it turns out, it was the author's girlfriend who categorized each of the words. Not the author. If there is copyright in the selection (which I doubt), NYT doesn't appear own it.
Without compositing images, or small aperture with artificial blur, computation can’t help you with the tilt effect like the one of the store sign reading Arche, can it? The geometry of that shot is interesting to me.
Thanks for the response.

Do you think these trade-offs are actually meaningful? I can see how they might be useful in the short term, but at least to me they seem clearly poor strategy long term. It is unclear to me what exactly is gained by such actions. It is mentioned that preventing users from destroying their devices is a motivation, but I think this is such a limited set of users and I'm not sure letting more technical users bricking their devices is going to result in reduced sales. It does also result in others fixing your code for you if they can debug and inspect them. (So many times I just want to fix shit code but it's closed) It seems hackers and motivated actors are always able to get in anyways so I'm not sure what the real cost is. I think you might see things differently.
Nitpicking, but “the game creation tool I have been working on for the past few years” and “I started it […] in October 2022” don’t combine very well.

It’s perhaps a cultural difference. I grew up in an era (90s, 00s) where people who were overly political were mocked and ridiculed. Certainly you’d never run into it in the workplace. That’s not to say you should never voice your political beliefs, but there is a time and a place for it.
Show HN: LectureRecorder – Switch Slides While in Lecture to Record Audio+Slides
Hi HN!
I'm currently studying computer science, and was frustrated when some lectures weren't recorded. I missed being able to quickly revisit important parts of the lecture. So, I built a simple app that lets anyone record lectures just by sitting in class and syncing with the professor's slides. A lot of my fellow students are always having the slides open on their tablet/laptop anyway, so it doesn't even add additional work to the students. It's my first project with Flutter and my first app published in both the Apple and Google app stores. Let me know what you think!
None of those strategies block IPs. It's only a DNS server not a firewall or router.
A dowsing rod is a greater predictive instrument than behavioral economics.

If my undergraduate work had the same scientific rigor and reproducibility possessed by the foundational texts of behavioral economics I would have been failed and every project I ever worked on would have ended up killing somebody.

Indeed. That said it rings a bit true for me.

The day I sold my upgraded Macintosh and bought a motorcycle was, in hindsight, one of the best decisions I ever made.

I was without a home computer for about 3 years before I got another one, though I was a programmer by trade.

But the bike, well, just going to say far, far more ups than downs. Never regretted that trade.

I believe I addressed your points. You want employees to purely care about their own interests. It’s ok for the company to try to align employees to the company’s interest. I’m sure you wouldn’t care for Fly.io employees secretly self-dealing in ways that gets them promoted and more $, at the expense of your company and customers. “Real easy to say that someone else should take a pay cut to serve a mission you [Fly.io] care about.” when they could be purely doing things that make them look good and puff their resume, instead of what actually helps Fly.io and it’s customers (your mission)
> In my opinion, the House and Senate rules are so complicated that only a few people can understand them. The procedures are used to gather power in the hands of a few, which undermines their original purpose: to facilitate orderly debate and empower all the members equally.

I disagree, and so does Surdy, as noted extensively in the latter part of this article. Congressional power is gathered and perpetuated primarily through means outside Congressional procedure like fundraising, PAC distributions, control of party apparatus, committee assignments, endorsements, PR, etc. Members of Congress have quite a lot of procedural power but choose not to exercise it in the face of these other incentives. This is not a view specific to Surdy; other parliamentary experts like James Wallner sound the same tune.

Those incentives also therefore dominate the attention of most staff, lobbyists, journalists, etc who make a living supporting, influencing, and covering members of Congress. This is the primary reason so few bother to put in the work to do what Surdy does.

I don’t mean to minimize the intelligence and hard work of Surdy, which is impressive. He may have a significant advantage by being so far from the Beltway bubble that he can ignore all that politics stuff above and just sink into the pure procedure.

He’s also free to tweet. There are other people in DC with at least the same level of parliamentary command, but generally they make a living by providing that expertise privately to those willing to pay for it.
Cargo and crates.io make it a cinch to include libraries which implement discrete chunks of the solution. The effect of opinionated defaults and an easy path to publishing coupled with the Rust community's passion for correctness and efficiency really play off each other to result in rapid expansion of library capabilities. Crates seem to be well modularized, there seems to be widespread agreement about which crates provide good solutions, and that results in widespread compatibility in the Rust ecosystem between complex codebases doing similar things.

Working in such an environment is a dream. Need to add a feature? Chances are that someone out there has already built every piece of it and all you need to do is track them down and stitch them together.
