Unfortunately, most of the useful data you want about wearout is locked behind tech NDAs so nobody will be able to offer specifics here.

But in general, the way you tend to end up with wearout is through electron migration ("electron wind") which is damage to interconnects from electrons slamming into metal atoms over and over and slowly ripping apart the wires. Modeling electron migration correctly is really hard, but (from memory) a general relationship is that voltage linearly increases failure rate and temperature exponentially increases it. The constants for these models are determined empirically and, of course, are NDA'd.

In general, I wouldn't worry about it. The MTTF for semiconductors is already very high even under awful temperatures 100+ C, and so as long as you cool it properly you'll be fine.

> would it be expected that a non-zero amount would fail?

The failures you describe here are going to be due to setup time violations. These issues shouldn't be transient (assuming identical temperature and voltage) since the performance characteristics of an individual device don't really change over time. Of course, the issues can seem transient as the failures may not actually always cause noticeable corruption (maybe you generate a wrong FPU result but that specific path is only exercised under rare uarch conditions).

So, it's a non-answer, but: yes and no. Maybe your chip is perfectly okay and never has any violations at the parameters you selected. Maybe it does. Neither you (nor in fact the manufacturer, though they do have a better chance since they know the process/design) can ever really be sure--all that's left is empirical burn in testing and hoping for the best :)
The U.S. needs a lot more rail.

The government should go the EU way. Build the tracks but lease out the actual operations to private companies that can bid for track and station time.

For example, I suspect if Amtrak was forced to compete with private firms for track time in the NorthEast corridor you’d see an explosion of service and a dramatic drop in prices.

I suspect flights like Boston-NYC and DC-NYC would reduce dramatically.

And maybe even more importantly there would be greater lobbying efforts from private firms to upgrade the tracks and improve the routes.

Currently it’s very difficult for Amtrak to push for that because it’s quasi public nature means there is limited profit incentive and no opportunity to raise capital from the private sector.

That would change if at least a couple of private firms could get going in the NorthEast corridor.

Much of the conversation here derails the original post: we desperately need less expensive construction processes (overall, including permitting etc). Even when the local community makes it not-worthwhile to build affordable housing.
I can't see why depriving a foreign corporation of access to the US market is a free speech issue.

Using a freedom of information argument for Americans is a stronger position, but that isn't guaranteed by the Bill of Rights.

This is going further than I want to go from a civil rights perspective, but there is at least some precedent. Corporate sanctions and bans have been used very effectively, as Huawei experienced not so long ago.
Doesn't have to be a ploy or even intentional, but if boomers watch Fox while zoomers watch dancing... that has political implications.
e/accs think if they aren't free to move fast and break things (and/or people) that the singularity won't happen fast enough and that would be doubleplus ungood.
I would like for all of the things I buy to be cheaper, including housing. No one finds that hard to believe. But reducing housing costs will require making tough decisions and some special interest groups will end up as net losers, so it's just hard to build political consensus for any major changes.
Ask HN: What are your Show HN posts, older or recent?
Same experience with Bench. I'd describe their onboarding experience as almost "white glove", but there are some serious synchronization issues going on on their backend that is making the experience confusing. Despite that, I've had much worse experiences with CPAs so I'm gonna stick with them for now and see if things go better next year once there isn't any catch up work to do.
The point of the comment you're responding to is that we're approaching a policy equilibrium where local governments don't matter anymore on this question, because they're not allowed to rule on it. See: California.
I'll try to weigh in. Democratic republics like the USA are heavily swayed by people, protests, etc. In the digital age, just-in-time censorship of social media like Facebook or Twitter have been extremely effective at preventing "good/bad" protests, and each government sets the rules for the social media in the country (read easy censorship). Additionally, there have been a number of international propaganda campaigns that were successful to disrupt regular elections in the USA recently. See evidence of certain protests getting huge right before and during the russo-ukrainian conflict and covid shutdowns. Tik tok the platform's users generally contribute and consume as a "community that generates content in good faith" (I use that definition loosely), but it is a arm of soft CCP power that could just-in-time promote something terrible (brainstorming here: cultivate civil-war-esque mindsets then trigger, convince the population to avoid polio vaccines, etc.) Elections are tumultuous enough without having each "town square" potentially weaponized by potentially hostile nations, so requiring that free press be free from foreign control (influence is okay under free speech) is what is being decided here.
On top of the house that took the space where trees previously were? There’s only so much space for trees. Seizing it for AirBNBs seems like a massive waste when we have hotels that use space much more efficiently.
I agree that the Cochrane review is better evidence of "if you don't wear/use a mask properly, it won't work," rather than "masks don't work." (This is one of the reasons I'm against mask mandates, btw.)

I'm invested in this only because, due to my health condition, I don't want to get covid. As far as I'm aware, the evidence says that so long as I properly wear an N95 (so I'm not taking my mask off to scratch my nose, have passed a fit test, etc.), I will significantly reduce my risk of getting covid.

You can get a antibody (blood) test that will test positive for COVID antibodies even if you were asymptomatic.

No, but it protects Americans' right to receive speech. Americans have a right to hear the speech that is on Tik Tok.

The mortgage interest tax deduction by itself is enough to refute you.
No. I don't know whether or not the difference in content is real. All I'm saying that if it were, it would obviously be done by geolocation, and in that case you would still see west-targeted content when visiting Douyin or TikTok; this invalidates the counterpoint I responded to.

The issue is that China has banned facebook and google, etc. because they don't censor which is the law in China. If they decided to censor and follow the laws of China they would be allowed to operate there. Google tried to reenter the Chinese market but decided not to after an uproar from its own employees who didn't want to censor. Microsoft is allowed to provide hotmail and bing, etc. services there, because they decided to censor.

The problem is exactly what law has tiktok broken in the US? Is it simply that it's seen as a Chinese company, and therefore discrimination against a Chinese company or something else.
Yes,

I think the global "everyone put on a mask" moment highlighted some large cultural differences.

My Asian friends understood that "not sharing germs" was as important as "not getting sick" mask compliance as much about being kind to others as to yourself. It also helps that lots of them were already socially accepting of masks due to climate, pollution and weather (or what ever you want to call dust out of Mongolia every year).

I think that there is an interesting corollary with PPE culture in general, one that has changed in my life time (safety glasses and seat belts). I think we saw a lot of that same behavior bleed out to normal people (who don't wear PPE at a day job) in action.

All in all there is a cultural aspects at play that are worth looking at.
IMO, there's no such thing as a WYSIWYG Markdown editor. Markdown is a plain text format that defines neither presentation logic nor formatting instructions. Markdown editors typically convert documents to HTML and then display the HTML with CSS to adjust the look and feel.

KeenWrite is what-you-see-is-what-you-mean editor, similar to LyX. The preview panel shows the content having been converted to XHTML and formatted with CSS. When producing a PDF file, the XHTML is sent through the ConTeXt typesetting software and formatted according to the instructions associated with a user-defined (or user-selected) theme. While the XHTML preview is rendered in real-time, the typesetting is not real-time.
I really like Markdown, but I wish it would support inline images, perhaps using base64 encoded ones to keep all in one file.
The bot did perfectly dodge a skill that humans almost never dodged because it didn't have a good visual cue. Against the AI that skill became useless, really screwed the humans over and made it clear to everyone that the AI didn't really play with the same limitations as humans.

In the next game it played they had made it react even slower and then it no longer beat tournament teams.
Many of the zoning rules you list, and far many more that you don’t, exist for valid reasons. Those reasons may not be as obvious as the chemical plant/preschool rule, but that doesn’t mean they’re not just as valid.

I live near a cove that comes off of the Chesapeake Bay. We have many of those zoning rules here for environmental reasons. Water movement and erosion are huge concerns here. Rules that affect density, frontages, trees within 100’ of the water…they are all necessary for the common good of the entire area.

We actually have a case on the other side of the neighborhood. A guy bought some land near his property for cheap. It’s not zoned for development because much of it is wetlands. He thought he could pressure the local zoning board to rezone it so he could make a handsome profit reselling it to a developer. As part of that effort, he diverted a creek and filled in the wetlands…and now several houses in the adjoining neighborhood flood (and there are legal repercussions for our entire neighborhood).
What a chart.
My guess is that back then producing films was expensive cutting edge technology, and the few films that got made hired the brightest and best, and gave them time to get it right.

Today any unemployed bozo can make explainer YouTube videos. That great as a "democratization", but the average quality is obviously lower.

There is no reliable way to determine whether a stock is overvalued or undervalued, so those are meaningless terms which apply only in hindsight. You are essentially claiming that Boards should be able to time the market, which is absurd and not actionable.

As for R&D and QA budgets, what is the correct amount? There is no reliable evidence that Boeing's recent troubles are caused by any particular spending amount on those line items. From the outside the problems seem to stem from culture and lack of discipline than from spending levels. But the reality is that all of us here are just guessing and don't know what's really going on.

And don't presume to condescendingly tell me what to understand. I understand stock buybacks perfectly well. In many cases they are the most tax efficient way to return capital to investors.
The hard part was synchronization. We're used to synchronization being easy today, but it was really hard to synchronize anything until the 1980s, when phase-locked loops became easy and cheap.

> We are building massive 3-4k sq. ft. homes for families of four because all of their food, entertainment, and social needs are not met by their community.

You assume it's a necessity thing instead of a desire+wealth thing. Yet the history of the wealthy and powerful "escaping" to large estates goes back centuries (millenia!).

Additionally, the housing affordability crisis is also happening in European cities with 4+ story buildings everywhere and shops and restaurants on every corner.

If you misunderstand what exactly the problem is and what exactly is being desired and what is being purchased then any sort of "build it and they come" attempts to provide alternatives will be limited by the misconceptions, and any sort of enforce-through-policy change will by stymied by lack of popular support.

I’ll admit that I merely skimmed the study, but as I read it states that local/municipal property taxes in many cases don’t cover the road infrastructure required to support those homes. To make the argument that they are subsidized you’d also have to factor in municipal and state income taxes.
> Lockdowns were proven to reduce the spread,

I agree 100% that lockdowns reduced the spread of covid-19 significantly and that they did not eliminate it.

> They are 100% full proof specially

I disagree strongly with this statement.
A huge reason these shared spaces are so miserable is because the communities around them cannot support them. Parking minimums and low density means that not only are these commercial properties insanely expensive, but also that not enough people can access them.

A huge upside to increasing density is that the theatre goes from having 100 people within 4 miles of it to 10,000. In addition, instead of having a 400 car parking lot surrounding it like a moat, people just walk right in off the sidewalk. This means the theatre makes more money and pays less in rent. This means they can hire more people to keep it clean and safe.

You start to get theaters like this:

The video explains that they used a neon bulb, which is far more reactive to current changes than standard incandescent.

Incandescent lights produce visible light largely through heat of the filament, whereas neon lights emit by passing current through the gas, meaning that rapidly changing the current is more effective- the had e doesn't need to cool down like a filament to stop producing light.
How about we just ban Airbnb and solve part of the housing crisis while we're at it?

Although it's not really that much of a factor these days, it effectively is equivalent to a subsidy. So is government backing of mortgages for that matter.
Exactly this. People act like it's a "big government takeover" trying to make multi-family housing against peoples wishes. The real fact is it's the exact opposite. "Big government" policies were created forcing people to only build single family homes on massive lots. Current proposals are to remove those regulations, and ironically people see it as the government coming for them.

After Testy Interview with Elon Musk, Don Lemon Says His Deal with X Is Canceled
Thanks for the clarification. You're quite right about the childish behaviour, yet I don't think it was celebrated, as such. I think the Illiad makes more sense in the context of the ancients' notion of hubris. I think they enjoyed the Illiad as a cautionary tale, of what happens when success goes to peoples' heads and they think they're invincible.

Many Greek myths and legends have similar themes: Icarus, Phaethon, Arachne, anyone who put on airs and defied the gods, or acted above their station.

When naming things you should name it what it is not what its for (call it a hammer not a nail driver) you can then make the determination of what you should/shouldn't do with it.

When writing comments, dont say what it does, say why its done that way. If the why doesnt need explination then it doesnt need comments.

Programming is theory building. Comments should only help you understand the theory not the source code. The source code is meant to help you know what the computer will do without interpretation. If you cant read the source code and know what it will do then you NEED to rewrite it. Otherwise just wtite it in assembly it will at least be faster that way.

Also dont include things that are learnable outside the context of your code. Dont explain what a state machine is in your comments. If you must, link to wikipedia or something.

It can get this simple example right if it does chain of thought. If you ask it to just output the answer without answering other bullet points, it will very likely not get it right. Chain of thought is duct tape to actual reasoning, and the errors/hallucinations compound exponentially. Try to get chatgpt to reason about concurrent state issues in programming. If it's not a well worn issue that it already memorized, it'll be useless. It's also perfect, for instance at Advent of Codes that it's memorized, and near 0% accuracy on new Advents.
Spray foam insulation: $27k

Got to say using spray foam to insulate the wall cavities instead of using external insulation over the structural elements is about the worst idea ever.

Also how much solar can you buy for $27k? Enough to supply 60kwh a day to run a heat pump.

I live in a multi housing building and its a NIGHTMARE. A drug dealer moved in next door and he smokes all kinds of synthetic drugs 24/7 the shared walls and gaps are so thin the drugs leak in to my home. The person above me has some sort of mental condition, he wakes up at 12:45 am and starts drumming the floor with his hands, runs around and moves the furniture all night everyday. There isnt a damn thing i can do about this other than pack and move. the hoa is an exercise in futility. I am now literally nauseously averse to “muti-unit” housing.

Many black hole solutions of the Einstein Field Equations of General Relativity admit a photon sphere or equivalent(s) where light can orbit the black hole, but not usually stably, and in physically reasonable black hole solutions there is no stable circular orbit for light at all, so no eternal orbit. (The orbit can be quite long on human scales though, before the light eventually leaves the area around the black hole, or spirals into the black hole).

I think the negative response to this type of post is because you can take any field and do a reductive statement "It's Just XYZ". There is a hundred years of steam engine design "It's Just some valves".

It's just a way to either minimize someone's field, or way to show you only have a cursory understanding. Rarely does someone have a deep knowledge of a field and then also frame an overview of the field as "Just some bits".

Nuclear Physics is Just smashing atoms.

Biology is Just some Cells. Or Just looking through a microscope.

Computer Science is Just the application of And/OR statements. Or Just Boolean logic.

Internal Combustion Engines are just little explosion's in a cylinder.

F1 Cars are just an engine + battery + some wings.
