I would second the use of Z-order curves. Hilbert curves were famously known as more optimal on spinning disk in a specific context a few decades ago. Inertia has kept them top-of-mind even though modern systems do not have the problems Hilbert curves were better at solving and those curves are more complex to use than e.g. Z-order curves.
maybe more so.
Exactly-- they're all built around standard protocols and technologies that should be mostly interoperable.
I believe the cultural integration aspects of cheap, fast, and effortless passenger transportation cannot be overstated. I'd like to see more and more people traveling to places they wouldn't travel otherwise.

It's easier to dehumanise the people you don't know, and much harder to do that when you have been with them.
Pretty sure my PlayStation 5 controller has its own CPU, RAM, wireless radio, speaker, microphone. Needs a PlayStation 5 in order to function.

Does Sony have a monopoly?
I'm not sure about that. Buying and wearing watches is what it is. You're only thinking about the basic tech consumer or people on a budget.

The apple watch doesn't replace a fitbit or even a nice mechanical watch in plenty of scenarios.
Many strains out there are below 0.05% CBD, but you can find much higher if you look for it. In my legal state every cannabis dispensary has at least one 1:1 or 2:1 CBD to THC strain, often several. It's not that hard to find.

Worst case, you can order hemp flower (very high CBD with trace amounts of THC) legally in many places and just combine that with a high THC strain at whatever ratio you desire. You can pretty easily make edibles yourself this way with an online guide, it's basically just following a recipe.

Thanks for your reply! I wasn't trying to be spicy, just trying to write up a semi-thorough response in the middle of some tasks. I appreciate your feedback. There is something certainly to be said about logical proofs of God being inherently a very odd thing. How do you "prove" something that is Being Itself. In my religious journey I read a lot of philosophical books and while I was convinced by some of the philosophical arguments, they did indeed leave me a little empty. For example, I think the argument of contingency is a very good one, but even when accepting that I cannot say that I "know" or "see" or "believe" in God. It is like being told that some guy named Bob exists in a different city. Ok, so what? I haven't seen him, heard him, touched him. Until you see him, the abstract really doesn't bring you across the finish line so to speak. I look at philosophical arguments more about "clearing the ground" for God, placing Him within a "why this is a reasonable belief" context. T

To actually encounter God is completely different, which is also why I found the historical arguments far more effective for me in my journey as we have in Jesus, so we are told, the God-Man making Himself known to us. We get to see God. I personally became very convinced of the historicity of the gospels after about 10 years of intensive study, having started out as somebody who enjoyed them as "myth".

Yet this God is also peculiar: He suffered complete desolation on the cross. And here I find myself in this strange life, full of trials and sorrow, and I see Christ as fully explanatory of how suffering and hope possess meaning. I encounter Christ in these moments as I know that Christ doesn't remove suffering but transforms it. He doesn't take away my crosses, he makes them light and even, dare I say, full of love.

Europe isn’t the only one. The USA is doing it, too, for more or less the same reasons.

“As many have heard by now, 2023 was a major milestone year for dam removal in the U.S., with the initiation of the largest dam removal project in the country on the Klamath River in California. However, you may not have heard about the 79 other dams that were removed, reconnecting 1,160 upstream river miles. These projects reestablished migration corridors, made natural and human communities more resilient to climate change, improved access to habitat to promote biodiversity, eliminated safety hazards and maintenance costs, enhanced access to rivers for local communities, reestablished natural processes for healthy rivers, and many other benefits.”
That's what I mean though, people don't just come up with the right answer out of nowhere. They think through many possibilities generatively, based on "intuition", and most of what they come up with is rubbish - they find out by applying strict rules of reasoning and often checking against other known (or "probably true") ideas, and winnow it down to the ideas that do in fact advance the boundaries of knowledge.

Often times it's not even the individual that throws out bad ideas - many times it'll be colleagues poking holes in his argument, removing further unsuitable generated candidates from the pool of possible answers.

If you think clever people just sit in a corner and come up with revolutionary ideas, I think you're probably wrong. Even the ancient philosophers used to hang out with some wine and hear out their peers and poked holes in their arguments. They called it a symposium.

The Thomson Problem
Knowing Apple’s love to introduce artificial limitations this news are not surprising. Even on their native platform, Apple Watche is half usable in terms of notifications - there is no way to get call notifications from apps other than gsm caller and iMessage. All you get is missed call notification. Why? Because of Apple said so

The government argued that Apple does not support Apple Watch on Android, which makes it cost prohibitive for Apple Watch users to switch to Android, since they'd have to buy a new smart watch. I wish this was made up, but it's 20% of their arguments for Apple violating anti-trust law.
Exactly my point. Everyone knows that "Facebook sells your data" but what's actually demonstrable is Facebook uses your data internally for ad targeting purposes, which I'm fine with. Verizon, AT&T, et al are at just as problematic a scale (if not more!) and they are literally out there exchanging CSVs for cash.

Supporting open standards and getting mad about Cambridge Analytica in the same breath is incoherent. The critique here, and the response that Facebook and other tech companies actually undertook to placate the outrage, was that the platform APIs were too generous, and users should not have been allowed to delegate their accounts’ privileges to third parties not vetted by the platforms.
European airports have train service to most destinations.

Nobody cares if the airport is 45 minutes away because going back and forth is made seamlessly easy, and you can eat or read the news during the trip.
> In general, halving my in-air time is honestly not worth a lot.

It's a huge enabler - right now, flying to see my family in Brazil is a huge PITA - two airports and 12+ hours in the air. It's less horrid in business class, but still something I tend not to do more than once a year.

If I had a 5-hour direct flight, it'd be a no-brainer.
Ask HN: Success stories from McKinsey (et al.)
Hi HN,

I'm frustrated as this is my 2nd company where I've seen a high level executive consult mckinsey (or a similar consultancy). And then implement a plan that destroys any humanity, and just slowly destroys our product/spirit over the next 2 years while the best people leave and we are left with extremely bureacratic and terrible processes.

I was speaking with my wife tonight who is not in IT, but had an ex-mckinsey CEO move in to the company 6 months ago, and it just seems like the same pattern.

I've always thought these consultants where there to provide "cover" for high level executives who didn't have a clue. I.e. nobody every got fired for hiring mckinsey.

I'd be curious to hear stories where it went well.
That's similar to people who move to the countryside then complain that the farms nearby stink.
Took the title from the github repo, since there wasn't much on the homepage that was as descriptive. https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf Posting because I'm looking into HPC systems for work, and this looks cool.
I don't see how any of this is relevant to the issue. I'm talking about birth control that is family planning, programs that provide contraceptives and these incidence are something completely different.

Unlike smart watches where integrating the watch and phone probably has lots of opportunity for innovation left, I agree there isn't much value in proprietary printer inks and standardization probably has more consumer benefit.
To be fair, they do need an alternate with a better visibility. But if the computers are not working, you're not in for a good time in a modern airliner anyway.
I doubt it, outside of very small portions of the country. IIRC, the plan was to have huge airports in places like florida that the 2707 would land at and people would get on subsonic jets to connect to where they wanted to go. Unless sentiment changed due to people hearing how quiet a "sonic boom" actually is when one of them was cruising.

Most of eurpoe also banned overland supersonic flights.
Claiming CarPlay is anticompetitive along with blaming Apple for Windows and Amazon phones failures really makes the DOJ look clueless.
That’s interesting actually - and a lot of 1950s era ‘small enough to fit in a suitcase’ descriptions (computers, nuclear warheads, jet engines…) make more sense if you realize they are a euphemism for ‘small enough to fit in a missile’. Makes me wonder what ‘small enough to fit in a cigar box’ was a euphemism for.
This is a terrible example given the PS5 controller is compatible with Windows machines.
That seems like a bold claim that there's no way to compete. I can see the argument that no one can make that better product because of Apple's locked APIs and internal carve outs, but there's a huge third party peripheral market for Apple devices, and even people who are all in on the ecosystem use them. Most people I know have non-Apple cases on their iPhones and use non-Apple wireless charging, specifically because there's better and more diverse products there.

If anything, Apple Watch is the product where they're the most vulnerable to someone else doing it better, and also the one that would most likely have insane sales if it worked well on Android.
For a coast to coast flight, at least 30-40% of the flight time is spent getting to the airport earlier to de-risk the TSA line, or standing in the TSA line. Or, going outside to hail a cab to the airport, sitting in airport traffic, and driving to and from the airport.

For a 5h flight from LAX -> JFK, approx 3-5 hours is spent doing these things.

So, to shorten the 8-10h of an LA to NYC trip, the easiest possible thing to do is... build a f%@#$ train.
You're crossing a platform boundary.

Look at something like Active Directory that is in theory ldap.

Do you really want to mix AD and open LDAP? You can, and it's a massive pain in the ass. Now you have apple iWatch apps talking to android. Where does apple maintain the translation layer? Does google/samsung take a "fuck off" stance and lock them out? What does the user experience look like when the "bug" in the app is on android and your CALLING apple for support...

I think that last bit is the limit that folks dont really think about. You can call apple, show up at store and they are going to try to fix your issue... when your random android device breaks who do you call?

"the technical limitations" are "we cant control android" and "does not fit our customer support philosophy"
> I recently enjoyed a lot Altered Carbon

I really recommend you give the trilogy of books in which that story happens a try. They go into a lot more detail about how the Protectorate (all the worlds colonized by Earth's UN government) is and delve a lot into the practical economic details of different characters lives. This includes minor characters. I'm not sure how badly the TV series mangled the essential backstory and plot of the books, since I disliked it nearly from the start, but in the books, nobody is opposed to immortality for the masses and though there are a lot of grim details about life in that future, for most people it's described as being more or less decent. The governments of the different worlds offer social welfare, economic freedom, religious freedom and so forth. There are economic booms and busts but overall life isn't absolutely shitty. People also generally get sleeve insurance (something like health insurance but for having a new body on standby), nanotechnology to conserve health from birth in babies and so forth.

In many ways it's like a futuristic version of life for many in the developed world today, except that governments in the books tend to be self serving, often corrupt oligarchies and the justice systems are often draconian and corrupt too... Oh wait.

No it doesn’t. You can use a PS5 controller on Windows and all current Apple operating systems.
There's another possible explanation for this, depending on how the white noise machine is built.

Unshielded speakers can act as AM radio receivers. I've had old speakers play extremely faint music while not plugged into anything; a few minutes later it identified itself as the local radio station.

Many AM radio stations are permitted to crank up their transmit power at night, exactly when many people might use white noise to sleep.
> The only thing AI needs is a feedback loop and a benchmark/cost function.

You’re forgetting about data. AI needs data. It’s arguably the most important thing any statistical model needs.

That data must come from somewhere.

There’s no free lunch.
I would say it is short sighted land arb. Density and land prices go hand-in-hand [1]. The causality is less clear. Higher land prices necessitates more units and being able to build more units increases land prices. Cities build airports because the expected economic impacts and increased tax revenue growth justifies the large expense. That's the long view. Your same reasoning should mean some entity is willing to lobby to open up construction and reduce height limits so they can build more. The reason this does not happen is because it is easier to block things than it is to change things. I'd say this is some type of societal second law of thermodynamics.

They use of horizontal layout is to some extent a chicken and egg problem, since support for vertical writing has been poor in many web browsers.

Vertical writing is often used in books, however, including ePub books that are internally HTML. With good enough support, it would be pretty reasonable to do a vertical layout for a serious news site, and horizontal form controls in the middle of that would likely be out of place. Physical newspapers, magazines, books, and manga in Japan are predominantly vertical.
This is not "arbitrage" though. It's not risk free, etc.

They train a lot of people. I worked with a founder who had just finished a tour at McKinsey and we built a voice chat service for the Brazil market that got 300,000+ users and that he was able to sell successfully. I am certain his experience there helped prepare him for that role.

A running bath or shower will sometimes trigger "I can hear vague people talking type noises" for me (and has for decades) - not to the point of actually hearing voices with distinguishable words though, it's always just the vague "there's people nearby talking". Which can be really creepy if you're the only person in the house...
It's a give and take. Historically, the danger from flooding actually increased because the floodplains next to the riverside were mostly eliminated. They would provide flexibility for the river to meander and to expand in times of heavy rain and would have to be restored as part of a dam removal. They also provide biodiversity and help keep the river water clean.

Dams are also a hazard when there is a lot of rain because you eventually have to open it or risk failure. As the dam gets older it tends to silt up and its integrity becomes less trustworthy, even less water fits in. This requires necessitating expensive maintenance to remedy. Getting rid of it might be cheaper in the long run.
> I think "widespread" in this case means "marketed better".

No, widespread means widespread. As in tons of people started to use it, ngrok started pivoting into enterprise, moved from ngrok.io to ngrok.com, etc. I was there for all of it.

The landscape of software other than ngrok was a total wasteland. Maybe there was localtunnel or SSH, I guess. But both of them kind of sucked and were fragile. ngrok was a static Go binary you could run anywhere to open a tunnel and it was total magic, worked perfectly, and was exactly what the world needed. It was the original. It taught people how this stuff ought to work and once people learned the formula, just like the iPhone, everyone else started copying it and now there are tons of implementations.

This is not at all what the DoJ is arguing but sure, go with what 9to5Mac is saying instead of actually reading what the DoJ has said.

Here is some of what the DoJ actually says about the Apple Watch:

> Apple's smartwatch Apple Watch is only compatible with the iPhone.
So, ifApple can steer a user towards buying an Apple Watch, it becomes more costly for that user to purchase a different kind of smartphone because doing so requires the user to abandon their costly Apple Watch and purchase a new , Android -compatible smartwatch

> By contrast , cross-platform smartwatches can reduce iPhone users dependence
on Apple's proprietary hardware and software . Ifa user purchases a third -party smartwatch that is compatible with the iPhone and other smartphones , they can switch from the iPhone to another smartphone (or vice versa ) by simply downloading the companion app on their new phone and connecting to their smartwatch via Bluetooth.

> Apple uses its control of the iPhone, including its technical and contractual
control of critical APIs , to degrade the functionality of third-party cross-platform smartwatches in at least three significant ways : First, Apple deprives iPhone users with third-party smartwatches of the ability to respond to notifications . Second, Apple inhibits third -party smartwatches from maintaining a reliable connection with the iPhone. And third, Apple undermines the performance of third-party smartwatches that connect directly with a cellular network.In doing so , Apple constrains user choice and crushes innovation that might help fill in the moat around Apple's smartphone monopoly

I'm so glad I stopped self identifying as an Apple fan many years ago because Apple fans' responses, first to the DMA and now to the DoJ's filing have clearly shown that Apple fans in their defense of Apple are willing to debase themselves publicly, pretending to be experts on things they know nothing about, without even doing the bare minimum of reading what they're actually talking about.
