Apple took this out of Mac OS somewhat recently. You can try to rely on their power management, but given battery decay is a common reason to buy a new machine I don’t trust them really.

If you have an Apple Silicon Mac I can recommend Battery [1]. It can keep your Mac at 80%, and even force discharge while plugged in to get there. It’s a CLI and status bar utility, I love it.

But I feel like LLM wouldn't make such non-sensical content, unless they used some obscure LLM.

The article is over dramatized causing false statements, doesn't use any of the usual GPT4 lingo etc.

E.g. claiming that it is the "worst thing you could do".
You should be able to with a PS3 and linux installed. You need a PS3 from one of the first two hardware revisions (the fat body ones), they dropped the expensive SACD reader to cut costs after that.
The article doesn't explain the why here... it's because 2 things impact lithium ion lifetime - voltage (both high and low) and temp.

"In terms of longevity, the optimal charge voltage is 3.92V/cell."

https://batteryuniversity.com/article/bu-808-how-to-prolong-...

That maps out to roughly 65% charge state.

There's a great app called AlDente for MacOS that allows you to set the charge limit while plugged in.
Are you sure you haven't visited hacker news by mistake?

Hardware overclocking requires a decent amount of knowledge, most of it obtainable only through months of trial and error, and a lot of tuning to push dozens of often conflicting parameters just right. Extreme overclocking requires that much more. If what they're doing is simply "pushing a button", then programming and system administration can be reduced to that too, along with many other things.

You simply can't get full performance from modern systems without some amount of overclocking, and things like PBO and XMP/EXPO profiles are far from what your hardware can achieve because they have to be very conservative, or many systems won't run without additional manual tuning, which most consumers won't do.

(Except for closed systems like Apple's where your hardware doesn't belong to you and you can't change anything anyway.)

So one immediate thing overclockers provide are general guidance on what you can expect to achieve and what thing to tune which way to get close to maximum performance from your hardware without spending months on it like they did. I heavily rely on such information. My system would be at least 25% slower if not for these "button pushers".
That's good to know, I guess I'm curious why it's not (nearly) ubiquitous. Does it add significant cost and complexity to hardware design?
> I don't get what's special about Devin.

Did you watch the YouTube videos?

I’m also skeptical it can do all the things it appears to be able to do, but I think it’s undeniable that what they show it doing (totally unverified as it is)…

…is significantly more capable than any other programming agent I’ve seen.

If openAI had that capability, they would be selling it.

They are not. I doubt very much that they’re just hoarding it and keeping it to themselves; gpt4 just can’t do it out of the box.

It is not that simple.

It is not just a fancy prompt for gpt4.

If it was that easy, someone would have done a year ago.

> If you use CodeLlama

Oh come on. These pathetic little open source models are shit compared the vendor offerings.

This is daydreaming about what might be, not what actually exists.
Probably, most of the charge controller chips don't have that feature or it costs more to implement than the OEMs want.
> How do police find out that John Smith is the person whose files they want to get a warrant for?

The victims go to the police and tell them that John Smith stole from them, so the police go and seize his files to confirm that the victims are telling the truth.

> But should the police not look at the sign-in sheet at the building because that will infringe the privacy of ten innocent people?

Asking for the sign-in sheet and seizing the sign-in sheet by force against the wishes of its owner are two different things.
There's nothing really there yet besides the readme file. I saw this the other day on GitHub trending and left with mixed feelings. You can launch an empty repo riding the clicks and sharing what essentialy is a parked domain template, as long as the keywords match the narrative.
I can confirm from my own experience that this happens.

First laptop at work, always plugged in (except for maybe one or two hours a week). After two years of use (maybe a couple more from a previous employee) the battery lasted 30 minutes.

Personal laptop. Mostly plugged in (except when traveling maybe 3-4 weeks per month) but with the charging at 80% capped (it's an option from the manufacturer). Almost 10 years later still holds around 1-2 hours (disclaimer: I don't use this laptop anymore except for occasional tests)

If your self employed income is 170,000 euros, then you might want to either look into the digital nomad visa that is coming out in April or the startup visa

I'd personally recommend the startup visa as it's still fairly unknown and easy to get considering your credentials

As a side note, "Search" outside of google is changing too. I have been using Kagi for a few month now, my search experience is so much better since then.
Without video games exposure as a youth I’d likely be an unemployed failure. It stoked an interest that has since sustained a twenty plus year career. Piracy gained me that access back then, glad to hear it’s now more easily available to fuel the passion of a new generation.
So literally all ISPs then. Every one of those speed test sites are rigged. They seek the closest node, and, ISPs are obviously incentivized to run such nodes specifically because of that "closest node" fact.

That being said, theres a lot of factors that get your final speed result. A lot of your system resources will limit you long before you reach your advertised speeds (and this is assuming not even an internet, but lan connection). Compound those with things like routers outside your ISP, and toward the target, can be congested, or generally slow, and you will likely not even reach 10% of advertised with a single system.

Obviously nerds and power users might get more out, but its really pretty rare.

Those testing sites are just a general tool for troubleshooting, and even ISPs should not be relying on them to determine speeds.

If you want a proper speed test look for "(size) test bin download" and youll find sites like HE.net with 500MB-10GB files that you can direct download and gauge your speed with. While they are effectively what the speedtest sites do, they are a much better gauge in my experience
It does, if the battery is 100% no more charging current goes in, so charging stops.

But the key point is that the battery will drop to 99% very quickly and on it's own because no battery can keep the energy in perfectly. So it's recharged for the missing 1% over and over again which causes the damage.

Unless some smart charging logic prevents that, see other comments here.

There is a free plugin by Tokyo Dawn Labs that lets you play with vinyls limitations.

Just two weeks ago we have outsourced Daytona (daytonaio) under an Apache license. We had long and deep discussions but finally decided that's the only thing that made sense.
Hetzner obviously got complaints, and I fully understand they have no interest in trying to defend images depicting pre-18 girls in suggestive situations. It's a minefield, with possibility of less favorable content not yet discovered in that fediverse.

What is sad that so many are oblivious to the corporate world and what it takes to run a company, especially against giants like Azure and AWS.
If ALL I wanted was the story, I’ll read a book, not watch with my eyes.
Why is this conspiratorial? It’s simply a theory, no?
This looks awesome. I like how clean it looks. I made something similar called Cha (https://github.com/MehmetMHY/cha) that supports image generation, answer search, and web scrapping.
Wow. Wouldn’t have guessed that a commercial game gets used in certified simulators
My previous Intel MBP which I've used for every day charging to 100% and discharging to 20% or so has 600 cycles now, battery health is at 81% and has been hovering there. It's still fine, but my point is if you think of relying on applecare+ to replace your dead battery, they will only do so if it's under 80% reported health and my conspiracy is that there's some reported value stickiness around 80%, it will have to be really bad for it to go below, and without it going below no applecare+ replacement.
I'm sure someone could find a way to start from ChatGPT generated stuff and do good work knowing full well the risks and the consequences.

But posting something you just generated on HN without any refinement is not very helpful and it is obvious at a first glance that the script as posted will not help you at the task it tries to tackle and I'm not even a proper sysadmin.

> why does it matter how a script was generated if it does the job?

It doesn't here, and that's the point: it's all too easy to believe that ChatGPT does the job. It probably sometimes does, but here it is obvious it didn't. It should have told the user that they should carefully pick the tools they will likely need depending on what their production runs, learn to use them focusing on the features that matter to the situation, and install them the way their production is setup, and that ChatGPT can't really generate a script for this because it would need to know how production is deployed, and what if the prod is setup using immutable images for instance, as the article cites?

ChatGPT will answer in a convincing way, before you notice that no proper answer can really be found given the lack of context. And when you have the answer before your nose, it's even more difficult to notice.
I heard this "everything is a string" line many times abot Tcl and it sounded a little unusual, but I havent delved deep enogh in tcl to see what it really meant and brought. I will.
I developed a lot with haxe and openfl back in the day when flash got killed. I wrote my bachelor thesis about an automated converter from as3 to haxe. It was a blast. Ported several projects within hours instead of weeks to native webOS, iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, OSX and Html5. Highly recommend. It is fun language especially for native game development.
Issues I had where the "final steps". Like on screen keyboards , different aspect ratios of devices (especially android), performance issues which where not the fault of haxe but incredibly bad designs in several projects I ported and several other things one wouldn't think about. It is NOT plug and play with haxe but you have the freedom todo whatever you want.

Also shout-out to the maintainer of openfl and several other projects. I think he was called Joshua (still remember the name even I haven't touch haxe in over 10 years). Without this guy, haxe would be half the fun.
I was talking to a friend, he was asking how come I always mention the deep state[0] in the context of western countries, but never in the context of ... others. And it dawned on me that maybe it's because the deep state is the state in those other countries (explicit) whereas we mask it with a thin layer of democracy (implicit). I dunno, your comments just triggered this memory.

[0] (not in a hugely conspiratorial way, just the bureaucracy, bureaucrats, lobbying that don't change between transitions are are sort of running the place)
The issue is high voltage state and temp are bad for lithium ion batteries.

"In terms of longevity, the optimal charge voltage is 3.92V/cell"

https://batteryuniversity.com/article/bu-808-how-to-prolong-...

That maps out to roughly 65% charge state. So a little trickle charge on/off doesn't really help things much at all. You simply need to keep the battery in a lower charge state while plugged in for longer periods.

As bad as this is alone, the toxic combo that kills a plugged in laptop's battery in a year or two is regularly pushing it hard at full charge.
You can skip the book and watch the TED talk[1]. It’s been a very long time since I watched it and I recall liking it, but I was also a different person back then, and nothing about it struck me as needing a full book to flesh his ideas out in.

Yes, but imagine, after like 50 years how much effort will go to maintain these ghost towns no one visits vs creating new games? Selfhostable archives would help that but that would be again a major effort to create.
Eh, lies, damn lies, and statistics. You saying it's the "right" or "wrong" framing is implying any of us had applied statistic rigor to centuries of grocer data, accounting for inflation and other economic factors.

You even say it yourself, variance it relative. We don't know the normal distribution. I'm just explaining the POV that can prompt an investigation. A difference of millions of dollars is a lot to pocket for a business selling a necessary good. It's worth looking into.
If people adapt, there are still options for life in ex-agricultural communities. Small-scale farms can make excellent environment for tourism, as many city dwellers don't exactly enjoy living in a city, and want some peace on their holidays. Remote work is also a possibility for an increasing number of people.

Smaller post-industrial cities could also be a good option for commuters, if they are located close enough to big, living city. Many are not, which admittedly is problematic.
It's not just this, it's literally bad to keep a lithium ion battery in a high voltage state, period. Simply taking a battery out and leaving it on the shelf in a high voltage state, otherwise unused, harms it.
If you use your laptop as a laptop, the ideal charging habit is 100% and stop worrying about it. You paid for 100% of the battery, you want to use 100% of the battery. It doesn't make sense to artificially cripple the product to extend the life of the device for a questionable period.

Unless it's a desktop with ups, in which case it should stay at 50%-80%.
Looks like a scam website, I'm immediately asked to login with Google acc, no ability to see samples or read any kind of description or even terms.
Just to add to that: yes, it actually starts querying once the query has been entered. It basically sends that instruction to the application that has the WireQuery SDK integrated, which, in turn, only sends back data to WireQuery that meets the requirements of the query. Thus, it does not store hundreds of thousands logs in a very large database like most logging tools do. This way, you can deploy the application with _far_ fewer resources - yet, by allowing the end-user to instantiate a session (as well as a WireQuery user), you only capture what is actually relevant to be captured.
Seeing that they had to replace the generic race and gender variables for those, the test is more of “does the llm have the same prejudices that I do?” rather then a test of unbiasedness.
It's important enough to the people who actually have the power to change it. This wasn't my opinon, this is why it'll never happen with current driving forces. Stallman won't be kicking for that much longer, probably not long enough to argue this sort of angle.
I know it's considered security through obscurity but it still makes sense for me to run sshd on a different port. And so it might be a good idea to use a different port than 6443 for the Kubernetes API. It doesn't make anything more secure per se but it helps evading automated scanners and reduces noise in the logs which helps in security monitoring.
Yeah but all it takes is a soldering iron, a Philips head, and 2 minutes to put a new one in.

Quite different to a modern game where what’s on the physical cartridge/disc may not even be playable without a day one patch from a long-decommissioned server.
Ok so it wasn't just me! The book is fine but it covered almost nothing that the TED talk didn't. About the only take away I can remember from the book over the talk was, Barry had trouble finding Jeans.
Best of luck on your new venture, but (read the guidelines yorwba posted).
I second your recommendation of BBC Sounds. Those stories about the tracks being played are short but they really help to put the music in context. The programs are also well curated by people who actually listen to and enjoy the music themselves. I have discovered a lot of music on the BBC that I later bought in one format or another.

I personally like BBC Sounds most for the classical music on Radio 3, but, as you say, there are many other genres played as well.

The wealth of offerings on BBC Sounds, and the amount of time I spend listening, almost make me feel guilty for not living in the UK and paying the BBC licence fee.
We've been focused on developing remote-first solutions for years (Codeanywhere). However, we ultimately concluded that, with Daytona, local will always be the primary environment, with remote serving to enhance specific needs like scaling and offloading is the right way to go. Therefore with Dayton you can spin your dev env on different targets and providers.
ChromeOS too.
One of the rare few advantages to ADHD is I can bare to watch things over and over again and eventually even hopefully piece them together into its entirety from the portions I manage to ingest each watch!
I haven't yet tried lapdev but have read somewhere that they have included a web ide, just like ours daytona comes out of the box with open vs code web ide.
Russia should have withdrawn its troops and saved hundreds of thousands of their men. See how that works in reverse?
I find that advice about note taking is always unclear about what "note" means. It's also important to identify what problem you're trying to solve.

If you're recording information that you want to find later, then the overruling principle is whether you're able to find it and use it later. This is obviously very personal and even varies based on your progress through life.

If there is one piece of universal advice, it would be this. When you're writing a note, envision a future situation where you will want to find the note, and write the note such that the note can be easily found and understood in that situation.

Then, whenever you experience a situation where you would like to find a note but can't (or the note does not contain the information you need), update the note according to your expectations, and remember the incident for the next time you need to predict how to write a note.

People who get too into productivity or notetaking expect some kind of nebulous value from their notetaking, that it will somehow make them more organized as a person or grant them a higher frequency of inspiration leading to personal success.

If you're looking for organization in your life, I recommend the Getting Thing Done meta-method, which tells you what your personal organization system needs, but not specifically what fancy tools you need to implement it.

If you're looking for creative inspiration, unfortunately, both creativity and inspiration are fickle beasts. I have heard praise for the Zettelkasten method, but you'll probably have to try different things.
Nintendo has some of the stuff most worth preserving (not that we should have to pick and choose—it’s all art and should all be enjoyable long into the future). Makes it all the more galling how actively hostile they are towards preservation.
TrustZone allows you to boot an OS that keeps separate memory from the main OS. It is used to do cryptography and other secure computation while keeping its secure parts hidden from the OS. There are open source OSes that run in TrustZone - eg. Trusty, Optee.

ME is firmware that you don't have any control over (it comes from the CPU marker, packaged with the BIOS) and is used to manage the machine for remote access(not specifically nefarious).

They are quite different in their purpose and more importantly implementation.
>Whenever I mention x86's domination of the computing market, people bring up ARM, but ARM has a lot more market share in people's minds than in actual numbers. One research firm says that ARM has 15% of the laptop market share in 2023, expected to increase to 25% by 2027. (Surprisingly, Apple only has 90% of the ARM laptop market.) In the server market, just an estimated 8% of CPU shipments in 2023 were ARM. See Arm-based PCs to Nearly Double Market Share by 2027 and Digitimes. (Of course, mobile phones are almost entirely ARM.

"ARM has a lot more market share in people's minds than in actual numbers"

haha, that's true, especially on HN
Lenovo vantage, under battery management or something like that.
Has been an option for quite long.
I used to use AwesomeWM [1] almost a decade ago. Nowadays I'm professionally stuck on macOS, and not a week goes by that I miss AwesomeWM... [2]

This is a fun reminder that the Linux Window Manager world continues to evolve. It looks like Hyprland is a cross between those tiling window managers and Enlightenment of yore (for the eye-candy)

Does Hyprland implement a similar thing to AwesomeWM's killer feature of "window tagging"? In AwesomeWM, it meant you could "tag" various windows (for example: Terminal, Editor, Browser) then display an arbitrary set of Tags. This way, I could trivially go from "Editor and Terminal" to just "Editor" to "Editor & Browser".

[2] I am aware of the various macOS window manager tools like Moom, SizeUp, and the like, but none that I've tried come to the ankle of the better Linux tiling WMs.
I feel like Spotify generated playlists always lead me into some insignificant easy to listen background music and it feels like it's led by cost-effective algorithm that reinforced itself over years.

Audiogalaxy p2p (2002ish) had way better discovery feature.
Personal anecdata:

- Work MPB which I got 2021-12, 99% of the time plugged in because I was WFH, last time I unplugged it to return it to my employer, the battery was at ~95% of max capacity (as reported by MacOS)

- Personal MBP bought 2021-12, only plugging in when battery was low, and 1.5y later the battery was at 80% of max capacity

It was then that I investigated a bit and learned the trick of charging only up to 80%, which is something that MacOS does automatically when it's constantly plugged in which preserves battery life.

Since then, my personal laptop also stays plugged in most of the time, its battery is almost always at 80% and the battery hasn't decayed further.
On my thinkpad the screen dims after 30seconds without keyboard activity when not fully charged. Very annoying. It happens also when connected to a charger.

I regretfully set the bios to fully charge again to disable this auto-dim feature.
It's definitely not about general market. We are first and foremost a professional's tool.

It’s always been like this, which is how disasters like the “Great Leap Forward” happened, and now the “Missing Generation” (since many of them never existed beyond fabricated paperwork).

The NBS has some brave people with integrity, but we both that is not the norm if we’re being honest with ourselves. They’re also fighting a losing battle with hostile factions from above and below.
It isn't easy to open-source your baby. It wasn't easy for us when we went Apache, so I can relate. It is hard to build a truly open-source business model.
