No, that's just a way to set no upper limit. A very beefy desktop power supply is 1600W, and that's typically over-specced to handle brief surges of power.

R/ProductManagement – Companies Fake Hiring
Besides arxiv which is free, the last time I looked at papers properly was when I was a graduate student.

so, of course I had free access to virtually everything.

It’s not really cost effective to subscribe to an individual journal and the topics across an entire journal are not as focused as you might think.

there’s a lot of irrelevant stuff published compared to your specific research (the purpose of these papers is to publish very specific articles and you read them to help you with your own very specific research.)

Alls to say it’s an odd question because an individual wouldn’t really subscribe to a specific journal, like you would with a magazine or periodical.
Aside from very specific cases, like if you work for NASA, copyright springs into existence automatically, so even assigning it to the public domain requires some action to divest yourself of the copyright. And even then, 'moral rights' may survive. The GPL is very much not public domain, but a license to a copyrighted work though. Which, I mean, you can read it. See 'how to apply' https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html

My approach is to sell ESPP right away (as they come out of my pay check and I still get a nice bonus out of it) however I usually keep my RSU and progressively sell to limit the risk.

That worked well, I made a lot of money from sell at $100 stocks I got at $25.
Fidelity does the same thing. Cost basis of RSUs shows 0 on the 1099 and you get a supplemental 1099 with adjusted cost basis. If you don’t take care to use the adjusted value, you will be paying both income tax and capital gains tax on the market value at vesting, instead of just income tax as you should.
Suppose Apple created a larger M-series cpu that had the same power draw (320 W) and operating temperature (100 C). How well would it perform against this?

A pillow doesn't need to be a factory-made product that you buy at a store. Plenty of humans make pillows out of natural objects when sleeping outdoors. I can totally imagine a mountain gorilla using a chunk of wood, or even a body part of another gorilla, as a "pillow" if it makes them feel more comfortable.
Org access. You seem to be very hostile in your tone, by the way.
"Don't put all of your eggs in one basket" doesn't mean "stay away from that specific basket".

There is a middle ground between holding everything and selling as soon as it vests.

I cannot believe that, on macOS, high cpu usage leads to audio buffer underruns and popping, like something from the 90s but on today's premium hardware. It's inexcusable. On a platform that is constantly touted as the best for audio work, DAWs etc no less.
Uber acted in the same shitty way and ran illegal taxis and price dumped even in places which did not have monopolies. This is their modus operandi, illegally enter new markets and then paying the fines and starting to follow the law once caught.

In what way are they a scam? Are they being unclear on the fact that the software is half-baked? This whole blog post is about how the software isn't ready.

There is no scam in Purism. I received all my devices, and they're as advertised.
The stores I visit usually have 10+ self checkouts. It swallows a lot more people so you don't have to queue like in a regular store. It also allows people with fewer items to bypass the people with a full shopping cart because there are 9 other checkouts.

You also save time by putting the scanned items directly into your bag instead of putting them on a band for the cashier to scan, before you can put them into your bag.

So my experience is that it's faster most of the time.
Show HN: Extend Zigbee sensor range with LoRaWAN
You could start with farmer's carry, if you have some free space to walk in the gym. Lift two equal weights on each side, using both hands and walk for 1 minute. Start with easy weights and increase gradually, over a period of days/weeks to a point, where lifting and walking for a minute makes you really exhausted and by the end of the minute you are ready to drop the weights (but don't!).

Edit: Just be careful of back being straight and firm, while doing it.
Now if they could go ahead and make 'rollback_complete' an updatable state, that'd be great.
Science requires a level of common sense and intuition. Famously: https://www.bmj.com/content/363/bmj.k5094

It is fine, indeed should be encouraged, to put some papers in the system that don't have formal data but do record common-sense observations. If people don't like them, then they can trump opinion with data in the scientific process.
It only was an "asset" because they created a restricted supply oligopoly. Somehow they were being rewarded for very ordinary service. Uber created a necessary disruption to shake up the identity.
ChatGPT was imitating us, after all
Hi! This project (LoRaBridge) was born few years ago as I was trying to figure out how to get data from the cheap Zigbee sensors in my cellar. In my case, the cellar is not immediately below the main living space, so the Zigbee range even with some repeater nodes was just not enough. One day, out of curiosity, I bought two LoRa modems, mounted one of them in the cellar and the second one in the 2nd floor of the house. I was blown away by the fact that I got a stable connection through so much concrete(!). That was pretty much the light bulb moment for how my solution would look like.

Fast forward 2-3 years, after a (funded!) open source project, there is now a way to mount Zigbee sensors in remote locations. Essentially the solution is a wireless bride, which works like this:

- A remote Raspberry PI unit collects&compresses zigbee data and transmits it over LoRaWAN

- LoRaWAN gateway/servers forward the data towards second PI, which decompresses the data ,takes care of the device management and sends the data further to, e.g., home assistant.

And as a bonus: The device joining process is as easy as it is with zigbee2mqtt ;)
Don't forget the "repeat" part. Sources and data are great, but if they can't be replicated by others, the it's not verifiable.
The assumption that these things use radio signals is not supported by any evidence.

Exactly. There should be additional penalties each time a parent entity operates this way across regions. Right now 180M is just the cost of doing business in a country for Uber. There is less incentive to not operate illegally for other players.

GnuCOBOL Compiler Reaches Maturity, Can Compete with Proprietary Offerings
you think $350k is a fair amount? if anything, the government should have be sued for this non-sense.
For single core, it wouldn't perform as well as you think because performance per watt is not linear. It would push this hypothetical CPU well into the zone of diminishing returns.

For multi core you can just look at AMD Epyc CPUs which achieve great performance by using many (up to 128) relatively low power cores. An all core load pulls around 400W of power.
Well this is kind of a philosophical question, I think from her point of view there's no choice involved - if you throw a ball, it doesn't have a choice but to fall to the ground, and she likewise "acts out the scripts" that she knows happens.

I think that's kind of the challenge the story poses. From our point of view, she knows what will happen and "chooses" not to change it, from her/their point of view, it's all already happened, she can't change it.

Surprise, surprise, people are different to each other. I pretty much can only sleep on my back, no other positions allow me to fall asleep. Also, I don’t snore.

But I’m also very much in shape with no excess weight, snoring is generally correlated with ill health and being overweight.

Why would you want the other players to not operate illegally?
All the data is digital (in case of BBS, mostly text, although file transfers are also possible). The analogue phone line is only used for transmitting digital data over the analogue medium. The dial-up modem converts the digital data to an analogue voice signal at the transmitting end and back from analogue to digital at the receiving end. (That's what a modem is: a modulator-demodulator.)

So no, you don't interact with a BBS by speech.
No, and I'm sure that, when you use it, the angels themselves come down from heaven and sing hymns to make your board hotter, but there's a reason I've never seen anyone use it: It doesn't cost $35.

The Pinecil is great at making things hot, even with challenging ground planes, it's very quick to reach the target temperature, and I can carry it with me in a pocket and power it from USB.

There really isn't any soldering iron even an order of magnitude close to its combination of price, power, and versatility.

When I was 28 at my peak fitness days, I opted for a firm mattress believing it would strengthen me as I got used to it.

I never got used it. The slightest sound from outside would wake me. Sleeping on the side was a daily chore. I learned to sleep on my back and snore like a lion.

Switched recently a soft mattress with shoulder support. Sleep on my side like a baby.
> for a depreciating asset.

I don't see a correlatiopn between depreciation and the cleaning of the asset. My body for example started to depreciate after it was appr. 30 years old, but I still wash it every day. I think cleaning is an operational expense that does not support the lifespan of the object, it merely maintains an experience threshold.

And about experience, I also never washed my car until I got kids: car washes are an experience in its own right nowadays.
I can't really speak to it as it's been years, but I remember her likening this to a play, where the actors can change the words, but they don't, for the sake of the play. IIRC she was very clear that this was a choice that the aliens were making, and not something that was enforced on them, but, as I said, it's been years.
It sounds like the kind of half-baked change a junior dev might come up with, but lord knows how it made it through code review and into a release.
Exactly! It could store and forward (later, after landing, with radio), it could use laser, some kind of very directional radio, it could dead drop a memory card somewhere before diving into a lake, there are so many posssibilities depending on what it is.

It could also have been there just to test what the response would be, without recording or doing anything else but hanging around for a while.
I have read your comment before reading the article, and at that time I have thought that you must be right.

Nevertheless, after reading the article I have seen that the clarification about the gorilla sleeping without a pillow made perfect sense in its context, because it has not been added to provide any additional information, but it was added for emphasis, in a context where the sleeping positions in modern environments were contrasted with their correspondents that are common both in non-modernized environments and for similar primates.

Moreover, I interpret his phrase "To start with" as having the same meaning as your suggestion "newbies".

Using a door frame in the beginning is indeed good practical advice for achieving the full squat position for those who are not used to it.
First off, it’s not always 15%. My current employer only gives a 5% discount. Second, the “look back” feature where you get the best of the starting and ending prices is also far from universal. My current employer also just gives you the closing price, reduced by the 5% discount.

So there are ESPP programs that aren’t such a slam dunk and actually just slightly edge out current money market rates. Add to this that they also cap the amount you can put into it fairly low and it looks even more underwhelming. Will you take a 5% bump on 6% of your income? Well, sure, I’m not going to turn it down but I’m also not throwing a party over it.

Just started a new tiny greenfield infra project for a friend but was too cowardly to use OpenTF after I tried it and found that I needed Hashicorp providers etc, couldn’t be bothered to dig in and untangle.

That asset value is made out of rent. It has baked into it an assumption of market inefficiencies in the form of excess profits.
> I've now got $800k post-tax cash vs $4-5 million in stock

Of course that's true of any investment though. With that $800k in cash, you could have bought any stock. Including your employer's! And if someone is going to beat themselves up over not holding RSUs ("I knew it was going to go up!") that same logic would warrant putting even more money into company stock.

On the flip side, I was holding on to some ISOs that were very nearly bringing me to my retirement stretch goal. I just wanted to squeeze out 5% more. That was December 2021. Within a month or two they'd dropped to less than 25% of their value, and I lost well over six figures. The rest of the market recovered, my company didn't. If I'd sold instead of holding on for just a little bit more, I'd be retired today. C'est la vie!
House prices are sticky on the way down. It also takes quite a few years for interest rises to really affect them. Volume of market may shrink as it is unaffordable but unless there are a lot of forced sales, home owners will just stay put.
The point is that the "local laws and regulations" were an unjust monopoly. Ride-hires definitely improved the taxi experience from what it was before.
I think it's mostly that HN is a tech site and the HN audience is only into cars insofar as they intersect with gadgets (thus the fascination with Tesla and Lucid). Step into a group of car geeks and you're sure to find folks who know about International Harvester.

Case in point, on my way to Woolworths in Sydney a few years back I saw a pickup of all things. Utes are all the rage over there, pickups not so much, so it really stood out even though it was parked innocently on the street. Upon closer inspection it was an IH pickup, but it didn't look like any I'd seen in America. On my way out I ran into the guy that owned it and we had a long chat. The truck itself was an Australian market vehicle, largely similar to the American ones mechanically but with a different front clip. He was a huge fan and desperately wanted to import an American one.

Exploring the Effect of Law Enforcement Drug Market Disruptions on Overdose
That's how some steps of the science work, specifically the empirical studies. Empirical validation, falsifiability, and repeatability is all in that ball-park. But it's a part of the process and not all of it.

If that's the only thing you want to consider, sure. As a layman it's probably a good principle, and more so in engineering. But you'll have to shave off some significant works of science from history if you do that.

You can read more about those steps at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method
Einstein and Higgs predicted phenomena that were tested years resp. decades after their publication.

A theory is also a contribution to a field as long as it tested (not necessarily in the same publication).

Your income is already tied to your employer. For most people in most situations, attaching a significant fraction of your net worth to that same employer is an extremely risky position to be in.

Of course you don't have to sell everything always all the time the moment you can. As always, use your own judgment. But your default tendency should be to divest and diversify.

I can't say I had lots of experience with taxi in Australia, but after getting cabs on the on the east coast, then moving to Sydney in the late 90s - the difference was amazing. Cabs everywhere, arrived quickly, could pay by card (EFTPOS was pretty new out there then, but seemed heaps better than the UK) - and I could easily get cash back (essentially a cash withdrawal) from the taxi driver when I paid my fare.

I'd rarely got cabs in the UK, but a similar journey in Sydney would be the same in AU$ as it was in GB£ - at the time it was 2 dollars to the pound too.
> It's exactly the sort of thing countries at war do

It's not, usually armies do not target civilians, and especially not civilians upper class (which devs are in Gaza). For multiple reasons, but one of those was very clear in Ukraine: if they killed Chernobyl's keepers, or Zaporiga's engineers, this would have led to troubles.
I was wondering the same, especially after the email sent from the CEO last night. It was just an apology and said they're back to normal, with no attempt to explain or give any details. It didn't even mention that they're investigating it, nor that they plan to give more details in future.
Correct:

> ... the JVM can intercept the resulting SIGSEGV ("Signal: Segmentation Fault"), look at the return address for that signal, and figure out where that access was made in the generated code. Once it figures that bit out, it can then know where to dispatch the control to handle this case — in most cases, throwing NullPointerException or branching somewhere.

This sounds easy to a/b test. Just sleep on the floor for a month, then your squishy mattress for a month, and document everything. (A month is just a guess, one or two weeks seems like transitional effects would dominate, hopefully after that you'd see more of the ongoing effects?)

Exactly, in practice the alternatives are either blocky artifacts (JPEG and most other traditional codecs), blurring everything (learned codecs optimised for MSE) or "hallucinating" patterns when using models like GANs. However, in practice even the generative side of compression models is evaluated against the original image rather than only output quality, so the outputs tend to be passable.

To see what a lossy generator hallucinating patterns means in practice, I recommend viewing HiFiC vs original here: https://hific.github.io/
