You should try the Moondrop Space Travel, you can buy them for USD 24.99 on Amazon.

- Moondrop is a pretty well known brand in the ChiFi (Chinese Hi-Fi) space.

- They support AAC so they even have good audio quality on Apple/iPhone devices (most cheap earbuds only use cheap Android codecs).

- Normally, their latency is pretty high, but they do have a low-latency mode in case you ever want to play games + take a call.

- It's Bluetooth 5.3 and communicates directly to each earbud (e.g. if you want, you can only use one at a time).

- And, they have active noise cancellation that's surprisingly good (in fact, it's amazing for $25!).

IMO, the main downsides are:

- Their app is meant to be horrible (I didn't even bother to install it). Not a big deal, unless you want to play around with EQ, customizing what the touch controls do, or upgrade the firmware.

- There's no way to control the volume via touch controls (although maybe the app allows you to change this)

- Even though it supports Bluetooth 5.3, I don't think it supports Bluetooth LE Audio and the LC3 codec.

These earbuds are probably completely uneconomical to recycle, but at least at $25, they probably didn't have too much of an environmental impact when they were created (assuming that the cost of the item is roughly correlated with the environmental impact of the item).
You should add the pricing in the main page, not hiding it behind the registration..

Is 2) coincidentially Baramundi managed?

This kind of software is used like the plaque everywhere in Enterprise companies due to lack of alternatives.

It's basically a web interface to manage fleets of devices using Windows, and is able to generate custom BIOS TFTP payloads (so you can tell people just to restart the laptop to reflash it automatically via their registered MAC addresses in the system). It's also able to bundle a custom setup, which allows to install all MSI files that you drop in a config automatically, in various levels of "which comes first". E.g. windows kernel mods, drivers, services, software

If anybody would develop an alternative for this in a non-PHP-age language, there's some serious money in this kinda thing.

California long ago banned 2 cycle golf carts. I used to until recently owned one. If you said they were a 100 times more polluting than a car with a catalytic converter I'd believe it. For a developing country better air quality, less noise and not needing to import oil seem like a win win win.

All the way deep.
Plenty of kids in high school were BBM/texting during class on their flip phones, Sidekicks, etc. They were told not to do it, but they did it anyway under the desk. Only a handful of strong-willed teachers actually took the phones away. However none of the younger kids did that kind of thing.
I know this sounds petty but the XP’s Classic’s task bar gray was ever slightly off from Windows 2000 and it drove me nuts. I think Windows 2000 was visually the best.
And it's scary how often the developers themselves (in the widest sense of the word) don't realise this! They've picked targets and chase them without stopping to think that many applications are a means to an end, not an end itself.

But it is a difficult balance. One has to define metrics that tell apart "user doesn't incorporate solution in their workflow" (bad) and "user completes their work using solution quickly" (good).
Cool idea, but why would I even put more personal info in a public website?

This gave me an interesting thought... How many algorithms can be expressed in 1000 lines (say 5 - 80 chars per line) of correct C code. Obviously the number is huge if just look at char combinations (62^80E3 maybe) but if reduced to compiling / correct and unique (i.e. not including the same algorithm with differing variable names for example) the number would obviously be much less. If in the range of < 1E12 it could be practical to have AI further filter by recognizing useful algorithms.

Who knows, there might be a warp drive in there somewhere!
Reminds me of a plot element of the difficult-to-find movie called Shooting Fish (1997) where 2 guys squat inside a giant water tower and turn it into their secret lair. (Yes, it's fiction.)

Meanwhile, mere mortals can't afford Bay Area rent and either commute insane distances, live in their cars, or leave.

In other news, people do sometimes live in surreptitiously in storage units. And if you're really very poor, squatting in property that is unused and locked up for investment purposes seems a moral duty.

I've definitely run into this personally. But even even I explicitly tell it to not skip implementation and to generate fully functional code, it says that it understands but continues right into omitting things again.

It was honestly shocking because we're so used to it understanding our commands that a blatant disregard like that made me seriously wonder what kind of laziness layer they added

Ah but you see the problem with West is that it fears and mistrusts any type of government interference but okay with covert surveillance (because im not a terrorist).

The truth is Asian merit based dictatorship has transformed farm lands to economic giants within a generation, stable, peaceful society. Singapore wouldn't be where it is without government intervention. South Korea would've never been able to create Samsung without military rule. Japan certainly would not have survived a full open democracy. Taiwan wouldn't have lived to see TSMC without Chiang Kai Shek.

But China's model is not based on merit but on lineage. This is why that society will never be stable, peaceful like its neighbours. It's actually a lot worse than Western democracy and should serve as a warning to those that wish to experiment with benevolent dictatorship without merit.

The language spec isn't right you just like it.

Sure, there are a lot of subjective aesthetics that go into the spec, but in this case, there are objective reasons for not liking this. It's a well-known footgun that causes bugs. And it's almost never what you want, so you end up doing something like this:

def f(xs = None):
# Are these two lines actually faster than the
# interpreter creating defaults at call time?
if xs is None:
xs = []

...

Do you have any reasons at all for defending this decision?

> The problem is woodworkers will do dumb things like remove both of these things from their saws to do unsafe cuts.

I have seen videos without them, with people saying that they have older saws and that is how they are used to work. But not that they are useless. Especially not the riving knives. One interesting argument I have seen from someone: currently the recommended way is to have a blade just a tad bit over the top of the piece, but he was taught to have it much higher. His point was that in such set up there was more vertical pressure down from the blade rather then horizontal and thus lower risk of kickback. Not sure if his idea has merit, but interesting thought.
>Intel Gaudi software integrates the PyTorch framework and provides optimized Hugging Face community-based models – the most-common AI framework for GenAI developers today. This allows GenAI developers to operate at a high abstraction level for ease of use and productivity and ease of model porting across hardware types.

what is the programming interface here ? this is not CUDA right ...so how is this being done ?
Pascal series are cheap because they are CUDA compute capability 6.0 and lack Tensor Cores. Volta (7.0) was the first to have Tensor Cores and in many cases is the bare minimum for modern/current stacks.

See flash attention, triton, etc as core enabling libraries. Not to mention all of the custom CUDA kernels all over the place. Take all of this and then stack layers on top of them...

Unfortunately there is famously "GPU poor vs GPU rich". Pascal puts you at "GPU destitute" (regardless of assembled VRAM) and outside of implementations like llama.cpp that go incredible and impressive lengths to support these old archs you will very quickly run into show-stopping issues that make you wish you just handed over the money for >= 7.0.

I support any use of old hardware but this kind of reminds me of my "ancient" X5690 that has impressive performance (relatively speaking) but always bites me because it doesn't have AVX.

Probably, but the difference I see is that single application of this product is enough (as opposed to buying mouthwash and other stuff that's often discussed here like toothpaste with Novamin for the rest of your life).
I've done it plenty of times. New teeth cost a few bucks when you get your blade resharpened.

When you have blades high cost blades ($100+) its absolutely worth it to get them resharpened and teeth replaced.

One thing that social media does to young minds is it shatters their attention into pieces, with all those flashing and moving rectangles on phone screens, and squeezes all the value it can from each piece. What's left is a mind unable to focus, that passively floats from one distraction to another.

I’ve found that modern X11 toolkits are more bitmap-oriented, so they benefit from ssh’s forwarding with compression enabled, even in gigabit LAN scenarios.

Best setup, specially for browsing, would be ssh or any other way to enable compression, but with null cipher.
When I ran a woodshop we would get our blades resharpened for about $30 and new teeth were a few dollars each. Its absolutely worth it when your blades are $100+
> completely destroying internet anonymity.

Stores that sell age restricted products already can also sell "adult passes".

Each adult pass costs less than $5, and contains a single use scratch off code that you can use to prove you are of age. When you want to sign up for social media or porn, you need a code. Mutiple companies can implement and sell them.
You'd have to actually watch it to find that it isn't saying the things you've projected into it.

"Intuitive" is not an objective property, it's too polluted by habits you've learned from other systems.

But we can say this: there's nothing intuitive about Windows' incomplete transition to the new settings app that still sometimes requires you to jump to the old control panel system; there's nothing intuitive about Linux' 50 desktop environments, each with their own incomplete configuration systems. In any kind of match up, MacOS will win on simplicity and intuitiveness hands down simply because every other option is just much worse.
Why not just minimize comments as you finish with a thread you find interesting? I start with a root comment, go down the chains as long as they remain interesting, then go back up the to the top level comment at which an interesting branch was and keep reading down it, minimizing branches as I go. Eventually the entire comment section is collapsed and I am done. Miss nothing, and no additional algorithms needed.
The report is very clear that the claim of these being "life-saving treatments" is unsupported by evidence.

More people need to know about the role unions play in obstructing new construction.

From locking up permits in CEQA reviews to blocking pre-fabricated structures, they are one of the driving factors behind a housing unit costing $700k at the very minimum. This puts housing out of reach for anyone making less than $150k/year.

It’s a 3rd rail issue for anyone in the democratic machine, which is why we won’t see meaningful progress in housing or homelessness under the current incumbents.

I’m actually pro union in most other contexts, especially when workers are underdogs. But in CA there are some unions which are quite powerful, exclusionary, and have negative effects on society.
The hopelessly optimistic side of me thinks this might be just the thing we need to spur massive improvements in mass transit, when big employers discover that it's cheaper to chip in for some commuter light rail than it is to pay everyone to sit in traffic.

Not only the JBIG2 fiasco was not an inherent flaw of JBIG2 itself, but any historical archive would want to use a bounded error model for any lossy compression algorithm anyway. We don't exactly know how much error is tolerable for given content, but we know that some error is definitely tolerable for most contents, and its upper bound can be used to specify the safe and reasonable compression level. Once that constraint has been met, the choice of algorithm is no longer relevant.

I understand that YouTube has zero incentive for this but this is the kids mode I would like to have. A white-list of channels that I could negotiate with my kids.

"oh you watched YouTube all afternoon and you watched it all? Oh too bad, go out and play". And when I think about why YouTube never will add this feature, I get angry.

Edit:sure I could also add a couple of education channels but my kids would sooner go out and play.
I don't think you have to destroy internet anonymity. Just fine parents like $25 or $50 bucks every time anyone can link their kid to social media use. Give people rewards for reporting it or something. Even as little as driving kids towards platforms that incentivize anonymous interaction over real name and face stuff is probably enough move the needle. That said, I think social media use has a very overlapping relationship with allowing kids unsupervised and/or frequent and lengthy use of tablets and phones from early ages, which I suspect is also destructive.

I agree it's less obviously correct, but I bet you could add the extension to sqlite if you feel strongly about it. As an aside '%y' is documented to only work in sqlite for years >= 0000 and <= 9999, so it would behave exactly the same as the code you wrote. especially because you already didn't have to worry about years less than 1000 because the ISO8601 format used for serializing dates in sqlite normalizes them with leading zeros.

for instance `select date(-50000000000, "unixepoch");` returns `0385-07-25`

Interestingly %Y doesn't seem to handle negative dates either if you need to handle BC, so I guess that is one downside for both. This is one reason I sometimes prefer to use low level code even when it is less obviously correct with a cursory glance, because abstractions may not mean what you think they mean, or even worse, may be lying to you. At least with low level code I can reason about how it would behave under certain edge cases I might care about.
I max out my 401k each year and would give my left nut to be able to opt out of SS. I know for a fact I will have that money in retirement if I’m allowed to keep it and stash it away, but will the welfare slush fund even exist by 2050- or will my years of paying into SS only hurt me? I realize it’s kind of a meme to say “SS won’t exist by the time I retire” but I think it’s fair to worry when politicians at the federal level have recently tried to nerf it (eg raising retirement age). I have no doubt in my mind that Republicans would eliminate SS entirely if they thought they could get away with it.
