I'm familiar with this video (and the book behind it). I don't know how fix it, but we can at least talk about how things should be before we can start discussing how to get there.

And here's the thing. If the overall arrangement continues to be broken - increasingly so, in fact - for new generations, and meanwhile they are repeatedly told that there's no way to fix it through the existing political system, at some point they will just get fed up and say, "fuck you and your system then", and it'll be torches and pitchforks time, elections be damned. Which is unlikely to actually improve matters on the whole - it rarely does - but it will certainly hurt all those older people with investments (and really just about anything of substantial value, including real estate) a great deal more than anything I talked about earlier.

So it is very much in their - in our! - interest to find some way forward that does not involve this kind of activity before the anger grows beyond the point where it can be contained. I would rather give up some of what I have to keep the rest of it. And then there's the very real risk of physical violence; the guys on the very top of this pyramid can afford private security and private jets as the ultimate escape hatch (and they're already digging bunkers for themselves elsewhere in droves), but I sure don't.
oof, didn't think about them fitting in the case. have you noticed any wear or play on the earbud/airpod interface from having to do this all the time?

Does the company just not care about it's reputation in regards to this?
In my experience the turbo models are significantly worse than the old GPT-4 models, especially in structured output and following instructions. I'm guessing its due to the cheapened attention mechanism, but its a bit disappointing that OpenAI tries and hides these limitations.
The problem is when you want to uninstall things. With Stow you don't have to track down the installer droppings scattered everywhere. The nice part of Stow is that it builds minimal symlinks and converts them to a deeper hierarchy once a second package wants to use a common directory.

Things like this put the fear of math into me.

I used to love math. Then I got a calculus teacher who hated calculus and he taught us all to hate math right along with him.

I've had this exact conversation on HN before and I expect several people to come in saying that the only moral choice is to publish research without consideration of its effects or uses.

This is part of a particular strain of scientism that holds that "science" is or can be apolitical, so finds acknowledgments of the actual social-political world that it inhabits as heretical.
Your article discusses the cost of decommissioning in the UK and Europe, my link was for American nuclear policy. Regardless, even 2-3x increases in decommissioning costs don't appreciably change the total cost of nuclear power. Again, 1-1.5 billion is in the single digit range out of total costs in the tens of billions.
That's a great use of inversion - the mental model detailed by Farnham Street (https://fs.blog/inversion/)
The current for charging comes from magnetic induction but touching just the wire gives no voltage differential for current to flow across.
> The same thing was done with nuclear: electricity too cheap to meter. Only it never materialized.

When I worked for a power company as a teenager, they saw the one nuclear power plant they owned as a lead weight around their necks.

If you wanted to keep it running, there was investment required to upgrade it to new regulations.

If you didn't want to keep it running, that was a multi-year decommissioning project, for which there would be no profit, only a major cost center.

Nuclear regulations are no joke, and like the airline regulations, the electrical safety code, etc, they're written in blood.

What worked in the 1950s, won't work today, since we know more about all the ways a nuclear plant can fail.
Hi there. Sometimes using a VPN can block users.

All the examples from the lectures we execute using an emulator. The final big project is the only one that I actually burn a CD ISO and run on the real PlayStation. You don't need to do it, but I still show how it's done for those who want to know.
I wonder if it would be easy to figure out, given a set of coordinates, if there would be a totality in the next 100 years there and when. I cant figure it from the examples but that would be a neat website.
Banks don't know the terms of the contract, nor the customer specifics, usually.

Sure, they get some good insight, but they don't know how many seats, what level of support, etc etc. They just see a transaction $X from company A -> company B.

First TB is free. I would assume at least 1.5 Mbps for HD so ~5.4 Gbph ... ~.7 GBph so 3.5¢ per hour if my math checks out.

Unclear if that would multiply by number of callers.
Yes. Messaging will never die. Given that, why has it been so difficult for so many to get a toe-hold - and be sustainable - for so long?

I agree with the sentiment of your comment. However, I'm not sure it answers: what's the justification of this purchase? What does the buyer know that others have not?
Agree, you don't really want to pre-aggregate your temporal data, or it will effectively only aggregate at each row-time boundary and the value is lower than just keeping the individual calculations.
Unfortunately not, some arrangements can pinch together sections of the gut as they pass through and that's a very big problem. No reticulum in toddlers. Rumination is preserved for thoughts only when they get bigger.
There's no point in correcting factual errors because what they are attempting isn't even directed towards something that improves the chances of nuclear getting deployed.

The decisions that will determine how many new AP1000s get ordered in the US or BWRX300s get ordered in Canada come down to financial and logistical and contractual issues around their construction. The decisions will be made in utility board rooms, not in the court of public opinion.

To improve those chances, there needs to be serious introspection on how to drive down construction costs, prevent construction delays, etc. etc. etc.

Maybe there are regulatory changes that could help, but I'll be damned if the show ever talks about those in concrete constructive ways, instead regulations are merely an obstacle and an excuse for failure.

In the renewable space, the hurdles are talked about in ways that they can be overcome, addressed, side stepped. In the nuclear podcast promotion space, the hurdles are immovable, somebody else's fault, and an excuse for the failure of current projects.

I never hear a podcast about renewables extolling the nature of solar tech as something that just needs to be done because the tech is so cool, or repeating the failures of nuclear tech as inherent to the technology, because that's a pointless waste of time. Yet that sort of navel gazing is the only type of pro-nuclear podcast I have ever found, of about five that I have stumbled on over the years.

Nuclear does not need any more cheerleaders. It needs more hackers.
OP means that the third sleeve/fourth connection point on the jack (the one responsible for mic data) isn't passed through, ergo the only connection to the recipient device is the output. In other words, it limits a TRRS jack to a TRS one.

Whatever OS you're using, you're not magically going to regain access to a physically disconnected signal.
> TLDR: you get a pocket laptop instead of a phone, despite owning a "phone"

Yes, exactly, thank you. You get a project that never ends instead of a useful tool. Maybe that’s what you want, and that’s fine if so, but that’s not what I want.
Well, for that I have a board from Super Micro with Epyc in it.

NICs that can utilize x8 from PCIe 5.0 or even 4.0 probably don't usually go into consumer or even prosumer hardware. PCIe 3.0 x4 is enough for a single 10G NIC. One PCIe 4.0 x8 can handle 4 of those, double that on PCIe 5.0.

There is currently no GPU on a market with PCIe interface that can utilize PCIe 5.0 x8 fully.

Storage is probably the only area where what you get from PCIe is not enough. However, by the time such bandwidth makes sense - the price of CPU and motherboard is a drop in a bucket, and you are probably limited by more than just the number of PCIe lines.
"The underlying theory is straightforward. Children who are unwanted at birth are at risk of a range of adverse life outcomes and commit much more crime later in life. Legalised abortion greatly reduced the number of unwanted births. Consequently, legalised abortion will reduce crime, albeit with substantial lags."

"Many people would prefer that our hypothesis not be true—perhaps not recognising that the core finding is that when women can control their fertility the life outcomes of their children are greatly enhanced."

Really well-done article I thought, and I always appreciate the Economist for inviting people to write who they start beef with. :)
I really wonder whether at least some of the compiler related issues can be worked around by using cross-compiling. Sure Xcode has GCC 4.0, but can we have a modern machine run a more modern version of GCC that targets this platform? Linker might be hard so maybe just do the linking on the actual machine.

> Reduce CO2 emissions, keep writing C.

This really made me chuckle. Really!? To reduce CO2 emissions just use a modern machine that's going to be so much more efficient on a performance per watt basis. The author is missing the forest for the trees.

Also, Rust has great cross-compilation support no? Isn't it easier to get Rust code compiled on a modern machine for that old machine?
"prices aren't a trade secret"

Is there a basis for this in recent case law? And how difficult would it be to enforce against a 3rd party actively publishing pricing, and therefore competitive, strategy?

Nope I'm not staying they should shut down or they will get sued, but they should do the sensible thing and talk to a good lawyer
> it's only supported on a niche platform

Lold hard on that.

Just every developer friend I know, uses Mac for coding. It is ubiquitous. In a BigTech company I once worked, there were virtually no guys having Win or Linux on their laptops, so we often even didn't test our internal tooling against those platforms, as almost no one used them...

Zed guys know their audience. It is developers, not gamers or office clerks.
In the past I've found myself pushing wood quite hard into the blade. I don't really do it anymore usually it means there is some problem. But the few times I've done it, I've thought about ending up in a similar situation to you.
Looks nice other than the low resolution screen given it's a 16"
Very nice indeed.

A suggestion - I cannot tell if the pricing is per contract/per month/per year etc. Would be great to be able to collect all this info and then slice and dice it.
I read "Elusive: How Peter Higgs Solved the Mystery of Mass" by Frank Close and I found it an excellent read on the elusive Higgs Particle and the elusive Peter Higgs himself (Higgs went for a walk to hide from people on the day the Nobel Prize was announced).
User interfaces are not outside of concurrency.
And it's all timed to come out before Halloween. What kind of sorcery is this?
Bosch pulled their saws from the US market because SawStop sued and forced them to. Then SawStop started lobbying to have their own design mandated on all saws. It was only later that SawStop said they'd allow Bosch (presumably in order to collect patent license fees).

As to this proposed mandate... If it's mandating any safety device, and Bosch and others can freely compete without everyone paying SawStop, I'm all for it. But if it's mandating the SawStop design, or would require all competitors to pay SawStop, forget it.
Wind power dropped by only a factor of 3 over the last decade. Furthermore, these reductions in cost have largely stopped. Your linked chart misleadingly just picks the 2009 and 2019 years, and doesn't show the year by year progression.

The slope has largely flatlined, solar panels aren't getting much cheaper and neither is wind.
Not the original poster, but I do the same. I have a private "therapy/ranting journal" that I use to just write out all my negative thoughts and dump it in there. I find it extremely safe and refreshing to do so. It's mentally the equivalent to me as "throwing it away" because I don't keep my negativity journals. Even if you don't throw away the journal I still highly recommend the practice. It's honestly helped me get through so many difficult situations.
I just looked at all the Moto phones being sold by Lenovo and none of the mid-upper range phones have audio jacks.
my grandfather only lost one finger tip to a joiner. My father had two fingers pretty well mangled by a table saw. I used to do some carpentry but have lost interest in the last couple of decades.

What really scares me are band saws!
> their patent on "using electrical signals to detect contact with arbor mounted saws" which does not expire until 2037.

I'm curious about when that was filed and whether there's an Australian patent on "using electrical signals to detect close contact and then stop machine ripping through flesh" from ~1982 (ish) for a sheep shearing robot.

Tangential prior art exists (as is common with many patents) but it's always a long drawn out bunfight that largely only laywers win to engage in patent disputes.
Thanks, super informative!
You're not wrong, but this is also an argument that you shouldn't ever be allowed to do anything dangerous or risky.

We allow all sorts of dangerous activities with the same problems. If we're worried about the rescue and medical costs, we should definitely ban skiing, skydiving, climbing, etc.
Yes, there's an argument that society should be willing to pay up to the amount of the damage to prevent it. It's okay as far as it goes. However, that's equivalent to saying that if a safety improvement costs $1 to manufacture and saves $10 in damage, then the supplier should get the entire profit ($9). Although, he's just asking for $5. How generous!

This is a form of value-based pricing - figure out how much the customer values a thing and use that to persuade them to pay a higher price. Salespeople really like value-based pricing arguments.

Some safety measures are cheap, and suppliers can be bargained down. In the presence of robust competition, they could be bargained down to near the the cost of goods. But patents can result in a monopoly, along with monopoly pricing.

How much should you pay for tires? How about brakes? A vaccine?

In this case, I think he deserves to get rich from coming up with the idea, but there's still a lot of room for negotiation about how rich.
there hasn't been any caselaw from my knowledge where they went after a customer for revealing the price of a software license

prices wouldn't be enforceable because knowing how much you charge isn't revealing anything proprietary (because you have to tell your customers in order to get them to make a decision).

Also not exactly possible to expect confidentiality around prices because your banks and their staff will see it..
I'm so glad to see the idea of labor productivity being applied to technology.

I think this is where the nuclear field should look too. Can they make robots to weld and inspect and drive down costs? Can construction be automated and inspected more cheaply? Can robots be used to put steel in place before concrete pours? Can advanced IT reduce delays in logistics? I don't know. Sounds hard yet feasible. But I never hear nuclear folks dive into the nuts and bolts this way. In the renewable space, such innovation is the only thing people talk about.
It's not really their choice to make though. (trivially, see seatbelts, smoking, airline regulations, ...).

Should it be? Maybe, but that's a discussion out of scope from 'is it in society's interest to mandate inclusion of sawstop's technology, or it's equivalent?'.
The argument in this article doesn't make sense if the personal data is a primary source of revenue for the company. For example, vizio makes more money from data sales than television sales.

Even single digit percentage demonstrates that 60% number is a lie, especially when you add another single digit for instance.

Lumping all costs before the plant is operational into construction costs is similarly misleading. If your proposed solution drops physical construction costs by X%, but you talk about “construction costs” including land etc in other locations then the full X% savings isn’t there.

IE: The maximum possible cost savings on construction is someone saying they will build it for you at zero cost. But if you’re forced to pay for the land and zoning etc to enable them to build then the “construction cost” bucket isn’t going to 0. Similarity when people say some tech like small modular reactors reduces the cost of building a reactor, but it still needs a cooling tower then it’s optimizing an even smaller bucket under construction costs dramatically reducing the actual benefit.
I think what they're saying is, Automattic buys products that are on the way out, not on the way up. So while Automattic might be great stewarts of has-beens, is that a good fit for Beeper, a company in a market that demands up and comer-ness?
He did alright.
And yet they couldn't agree with Apple on a protocol that could be implemented by both. Imagine how much better tracking you'd get with tags that could be picked up by either Android or iPhones. Especially in the _third world_ where Android phones are way more prevalent.
I wonder if this takes into account the number of young people going in to receive cancer-diagnosing tests. Perhaps as a result of news about microplastics, etc. people are generally becoming more worried and therefore more proactive in seeking diagnoses. But more people getting tested results in more cancer diagnoses.
Nitpick: It doesn't destroy your blade. You just have to get it resharpened and possibly get some new teeth brazed on.

Otherwise, yeah i agree its annoying to pop the break on a wet piece of wood or a missed nail.

Very sensible. While libertarian and anarcho-capitalist outfits like Reason and Freakonomics may have strange views (and sometimes held climate denial views), they do also sometimes offer uncomfortable, factual truths.

Unfortunately though, the US lacks a fair and equitable universal healthcare system and doesn't really care about imposing absurd externalities on individuals who lack health insurance or the means to side-step the narrowing separation between church and state. Birth control access isn't free or universal in the US. And, it would be unsurprising that a considerable fraction of lower-income women in physical relationships are less able to insist on using birth control at all times. It could also be that higher-income women worry more and have the means and assertiveness to make different choices.

Perhaps the root cause is when kids are born, regardless of public policies or personal choices, that aren't wanted, aren't loved, and lack sensible parental role models, they end up in worse circumstances and have more problems in life.

Just to let you know this kind of pricing information is available and given out during F500 SaaS deals.

Our microsoft reseller was using pricing and contract info on a deal he closed last week to assure us he would and could get us a similar deal.

Gartner will literally cutthtoat re-negotiate any large contract you have, using pricing data they have gathered from their members.

Call them up tomorrow, tell them your current cost for Splunk, they will tell you exactly how much you can save.

So this type of thing is not illegal and not even frowned upon for the big players.
I wonder how much progress will happen in states with cold dark winters.

I've just sort of noticed heat pumps are becoming more widespread. Can they help there?
On any given machine, Rust compilation consumes comparatively more power.

Also, I doubt mere mortals can compile Rust software for PowerPC OS X. LLVM IR isn't backward compatible and Darwin/PPC hasn't been a supported target for a while. If you used a 2018 rustc and LLVM 7.x you might get lucky.
