This is an app store, not IMDB.

I don't like the idea of some "authority" picking the winners and losers in the open-source space.

What makes IMDB work and this not, is that Movies are static things. You aren't going to one day find the 1957 romantic comedy Desk Set[1], suddenly turn into a slasher film. Where as open source software changes, sometimes drastically.

[1]- You should watch Desk Set, it has Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. The main plot is about a computer taking over the job of information workers.

Yeah, similar here. The brain seems to do a pretty good job of 'tuning it out' most of the time after a while. But as soon as you start thinking about it, it's there and louder than ever.
I think a DC grid is likely. But it's still 100 years away.

Over time, more and more components will be built DC (DC long distance cables are already popular, due to being slightly cheaper. DC for electronics is popular due to AC being poorly suited to microprocessors/logic. DC sees wide use in cars. USB-C brings computer peripherals into the DC world).

Eventually, whenever two DC bits of power infrastructure are touching oneanother, someone will notice that removing the DC->AC->DC conversion steps saves money and increases efficiency.

Eventually enough bits of the grid will be DC that AC 'islanding' can occur - whenever every link from A to B is DC, there is nothing to keep the phase locked between place A and place B. Initially that will be solved with software locking means.

But finally maintaining that anti-islanding tech will be too costly, and all remaining bits of the AC grid will be removed.

But it's gonna take 100 years because grid tech changes slowly, and infrastructure like buried cables can be 70+ years years old.
You are talking about spoofing, not jamming.[1]

This may be theoretically possible but is, in reality, practically impossible.

Embedded within the GPS signal is the ephemeris data which, among other things, includes each satellite's location in space.

Receivers calculate position by calculating the difference between the time a signal was received and the time stamp encoded in the signal itself.

By analyzing the signals from a minimum of four satellites (one for each dimension in time and space), a receiver calculates where it is.

To spoof all phones on Earth, you would need to trick each receiver individually. Since receivers are passive, they don't identify themselves, and there would be no way to target each individual receiver, making them think they're somewhere they're not.

1. Jamming is obfuscating a signal, usually by creating a lot of noise that makes the real signal hard to find. Spoofing is impersonating a signal.
> Does the future possibility degrade today's product?

In some cases, yes. I specifically don't use Spotify in part because I can possibly lose access to my playlists and music I listen to in the future. Building a music collection is a big part of listening to music for me, so the future possibilities of the service actually degrade todays product.

I don't watch streams so I don't have any input on Twitch, but I could imagine someone having a similar outlook.

> Gives you a large store of energy that can absorb sudden spikes in demand or drops in supply, so systems have time to react before really bad things happen.

Capacitors do the same for DC. They are also more efficient and reliable.

The thing about a communication channel is true. But it will become true for AC after almost all of the generation becomes free of rotational inertia too (PV, modern wind, and batteries). And you need side-channel communication to decide what generator will take over what load right now.

Interesting. I didn’t know this body of work. I haven’t read the documentation other than the abstract.

If the protocol is about knowing what information to inject at what node in the network to achieve consensus, the protocol can (and will) be used to inject whatever truths the parties with knowledge on the protocol believe in. If there are enough parties with opposing beliefs, then the network cannot be gamed beyond the status quo.

How does this protocol “choose” the truth to propagate in the face of opposing truths?

What power does the protocol give to parties who know how to work the system?

Or rather what resilience does the protocol have against “inside traders”?

How recent were your experiences?

The server-side Swift ecosystem has matured over the past few years, with specific attention from teams at Apple.

For example, regarding JSON, there has been a rewrite of the JSON encoder/decoder that results in a 200% - 500% speed up in deserialization! You can read about the (still ongoing) improvements to Foundation at https://github.com/apple/swift-foundation

Regarding logging, Apple has been pushing the development of community around the swift-log package at https://github.com/apple/swift-log. Maybe you’ve seen this, but just wanted to share!

One last thing: the Swift VSCode extension is actually really good! Not sure when you used it last, but I’ve been using it on a regular basis and it’s been great — and is only getting better. Here’s the link to the extension if you’re curious: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=sswg.swi...

It’s true that Swift has had its various issues, but there’s a very real push by the core team and community to bring the language to new heights and places. Cross-platform support is getting better and better (check out what The Browser Company is doing with Swift on Windows) and a big source of performance bottlenecks are being addressed with the development of non-copyable and non-escaping types (Rust-like move-only types)!

Sorry that’s a lot, but I just wanted to point out that there’s a lot of hope in Swift and really interesting things are happening for the project!

The adtech industry in the west has driven the normality of constantly connected devices. Now we'll have the chineese government constantly connected instead of just the billionaires.

You won't be able to get a car which isn't connected, just like its increasingly hard to get a TV that isn't connected. The cultural acceptance of this has been driven from the trillions spent by advertising companies in double-dipping -- companies not content with making a product and selling it for a markup, they have to squeeze an extra $10 out of that $500 TV -- and that has massively weakened the security of society, both directly (Internet of Shit) and through expectations (IoT supply chains controlled by hostile agents)

How certain are you that projects are actively seeking to attract potential contributors?

Managing open source contributors is non-trivial work. It's actually one of the harder forms of engineering management, because you're dealing with volunteers - you can't even really directly tell contributors what to do, you have to deploy a whole bunch of (difficult) soft skills and influence and leadership to point people in the right direction.

How confident are you that there's sufficient demand from projects to attract more contributors in this way?

> I’m not sure why the state or voters felt it would be okay to take away local choice or why they thought it would be easy.

Because often said local choices have outsized non-local effects. And because, ideally, the state has an interest in improving the entirety of the state, not just your little area. So when the decisions your town makes degrades things in many surrounding communities, the state has an interest in preventing that.

Take something like the BART metro -- there was an opportunity when it was first being built to be a complete ring around the bay, but due to some local choices, many other communities in the south bay area were denied a metro system. And now, to actually complete that system it is much lengthier and expensive to do so.

> Rather than trying to force density on existing cities where residents value their current neighborhood character and quality of life, it would be better to bring economic opportunity to cities left behind that are smaller and have more space. It doesn’t make sense to crowd into a few coastal cities.

The density is a function of the economic productivity though, as most people seek out better opportunities. How do you actually create said opportunities where there are currently few? And importantly, how do you do it without creating the same exact problem that you're trying to solve, just in a different place?
The awkward thing about TEC or Peltiers is that you still need a system to move the heat away from near the device, which often defeats the point.

I was looking into using them to cool the stepper motors on my enclosed 3d printer, but realized that I'd still need a water loop to carry the extra heat away, in which case I could've just setup a direct water loop without TEC. In the end I opted for just heatsinks with fans pointed at them.
Radxa Rock 5 ITX: 8-Core ARM Mini ITX Board with LPDDR5 RAM

Yes, I missed that. Looks like the cheapest with a Pro chip is $1999. Microcenter has the same deal as Costco: $1799.

I used a factory refurb for a while last year, an M1 Pro with 16GB of RAM. It handled everything I threw at it (mostly backend dev using Docker Compose) easily, and it was only $1300, which is cheaper than an M3 MBA with the same memory.
If the eMMC failed then the board would become a brick until the associated chips were desoldered and replaced.
Shakespeare's Game of Thrones Trilogy on Stage in Minneopolis
At Minneapolis' Guthrie Theater, "Richard II," "Henry IV (combined)" and "Henry V" bring Shakespeare's English histories to life with the edge of the seat gripping themes of struggle, providence, and duty. The ensemble cast shines in their portrayal of these historic tales, while bringing a contemporary energy to the roles without detracting from the story staged before the viewer. The content and thematics are strong and especially good for those making "one more, last attempt" at understanding Shakespeare's prowess in storytelling that remains in contemporary times.

While the audience can participate in singular performances, those that make the 11.5 hour marathon performance commitment will kindly be guided in an intimate journey from text book word wizardry of Richard II to the a fantastical dynamic story telling of Henry V that only the likes Shakespeare can reap critical acclaim for in a historical drama. The Guthrie Theater's staged and cast performance does not disappoint.

Neon keeps an NVME cache in the Pageservers, and it also keeps copies of the data in S3, one for the main storage, and one for the backup case. The data also gets stored on special replicated storage (Safekeepers). So it might be in 6 different places at the same time (3 safekeepers, 1 pageserver, 2 S3 buckets), details depending on the data's lifecycle through the system.

This architecture delivers really good safety: Once your transaction commits, the data is already replicated across different AZs, and this is done without there being an S3 request each time. It also means that Neon can deliver features like branching.

Yes and:

Per Saul Griffith and others, we have the tools today to achieve net zero. The primary hurdles are legal, capacity, and financing. Not technology.

For example, there's a huge backlog of renewable energy just waiting to join the power grid. But the utilities remain loyal to natural gas, refuse to upgrade or expand.

IIRC, the 4 major categories of (human) CO2 pollution are transportation, manufacturing, buildings, and agriculture.

We now have the tech to achieve net zero for all but agricultural.

Successor legislation (BBB/IRA 2, 3, 4, etc) must address agricultural. And the stubbornly carbon-based industry segments, like "fast fashion", which alone accounts for > 2% of CO2 pollution (and growing).
Happens in companies of every size and industry. Colleagues quickly figure out who the competent person is on some obscure task and repeatedly direct requests specifically to that person. And after weeks/months of overwork or overdelivering, when they finally say no to something, people get offended, call the person rude or a jerk, it sometimes even leads to their dismissal.

I never claimed that private healthcare is better. Don't put words in my mouth.

As for impact of various healthcare funding models on life expectancy, you appear to be confusing correlation with causation. The larger point is that healthcare system quality beyond a certain minimum level has only a small impact on life expectancy. It matters far less than lifestyle issues (diet, exercise, substance abuse) and sanitation.

Beam: Better Decisions, Lower Risk, with Multi-Model AI Reasoning
A full 40% of the applications we now get for jobs are GPT-generated.

I wonder what their plans are to stop the escalation?

It seems very tempting for an interviewee to have an AI come up with the answers, now that latency is pretty low.

I'm also very curious about how you'd protect such an app from prompt injection :)
The Beam feature of bigAGI (IMO one of the best model provider agnostic GenAI UX) enables GenAI users to send same prompt to multiple GenAI models at the same time, and gives the user different approaches to examine, select and fuse the best results into a better answer, through a very intuitive and seamless UX. It has been my go-to way of using GenAI in the past few weeks. IMO the results are better than any individual model's results alone. The best thing is, it could (semi)automatically select the best results from the models, for instance, it used to be the Claude 3 Opus model's results were favored, now that the best results lean more towards gpt-4-turbo-2024-04-09, but you can achieve "best model auto selection" with Beam without having to manually pick one model over the other.
