I Google'd for "Nikon’s EUV program". First hit: https://www.nikon.com/company/ir/ir_library/event/pdf/2023/2...

But transforming high voltage to low voltage or vice versa is really trivial with AC.
i had a CPAP for years, now I've had a (custom-made, prescription) mouthguard for years. For me, the mouthguard is about as effective as CPAP but much, much more convenient.

Without treatment, I have severe Sleep Apnea and awaken 30 times per hour during sleep. Using a snore-detecting app while sleeping with the mouthguard, I can see that I snore very little with it and I feel rested and ready after 8 hours.

It works by locking into your teeth and very slightly advancing your lower jaw, thereby opening up your airway. After a couple nights adjustment, I hardly notice it.

Note that I had this prescribed by a sleep doctor, fitted by a specialist using a high-tech imaging device, made to fit my teeth, etc. The cost was in the range of $3000 and insurance covered it.

I see people saying the ordered something off amazon and that is definitely a different thing, not a "Mandibular Advancement Device" as these clever, utterly simple devices are called.
I'd rather get a cheap smart phone and invest in PC components.

I wish I had the strength so many apparently have to have such a small and valuable object always in your pocket. For me, the more expensive it is the more anxiety and worried I would be over losing or breaking it.

Peace of mind is priceless.
I believe that with AC is easier and cheaper to change the voltage using transformers compare to DC.

I speak as someone who was somewhat intrigued by the allure of C++, but then turned off by its complexity (as in, feeling anxious about the code I write because I have no idea what silent footguns I might be triggering now). When not writing in interpreted web tech langs for my dayjob, I tend to use Rust and C. I've also heard good things about Zig and Nim.

What I'm genuinely interested in, is why is this such a big deal for me, but apparently not for other people? What copes do people employ to get over it to enable themselves to write C++? Per my initial question: why (and how) do people put up with it?

Especially when modern and powerful alternatives exist which have mostly either learned from the mistakes of C++, or avoided them altogether.

I think that this video, embedded in a 404 page, makes the best 404 page, hands down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dYKEMSMV3w. Lance Cummins created this video 10 years ago rewriting the words to U2's song "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". The words start out: "You have come, to my site.

Most news organizations have figured out that partisan coverage helps grow your audience while criticizing your own team results in cancellations. That's a problem for Glenn Greenwald who has always focused his energy on criticizing those in power, whichever party that may be. It ultimately resulted in him leaving the Intercept.

Journalism is hard work and it doesn't pay much (unless you're a celebrity reporter like Greenwald) and subsequently people who pursue a career in journalism do so out of idealism. They see wrongs in the world and hope that by drawing attention to these wrongs society will improve. Partisanship in journalism isn't childishness. Journalists overwhelmingly believe that exposing the crimes and malfeasance of "the other" is the most important thing and writing about the failures of their own party is a distraction from that cause.

The substack model isn't a solution, either. Substack is fine for intelligent commentary but you can't pay for investigative journalism with a substack model. It just looks like real journalism just isn't profitable and I consider that a serious problem.

I think most of what's holding EV back is people having bad or outdated information. You don't need to drive to a charger, you use the same one you use to charge your phone: your house. Plug it in to your normal wall outlet when you get home and you'll have 100% charge every day. You only need a fancy charger for road trips. That's why there aren't a bunch near your house: you mostly don't need one at all.
I could have worded it a bit better - I don't have the before and after since I've been using ChatGPT Pro for the past year, yet only started my new project[1] 7 months ago.

munksbeer, please have your child evaluated by a developmental pediatrician. It will take a number of visits and if you are in the U.S. and it will most likely not be covered by insurance, but it is vital in helping you get the support your child may need.

Not really. Tesla forecast 2024 would be a globally bad year for all EV markets, and that's including their EV sales. Everything they predicted seems to be inline with what is happening.
Every Bolt they sold was losing them money. Like literally making significant negative money.

Its simply impossible for them to scale up the Bolt as is.

Their plan was to rebase the Bolt onto the Ultium platform, but with all the issues they had on that platform, they weren't able to do it.

If it was on Ultium then maybe they could not lose money on it.
The economy got addicted to cheap money. 7% is historically pretty reasonable. The problem for houses is that we didn't build any after the 2008 crisis and the baby boomers have enacted a lot of policies for themselves that cut their property taxes at the expense of young people who want to buy their first home.

Teslas don't experience the network effect like a social network does, especially since they've opened up NACS/Supercharger to other car manufacturers.
Well, my previous trolling aside, you can build an internal combustion (or electric!) go-kart type deal on a mid software developer budget. There are plenty of university students doing so for under a couple of thousand USD. You can also experiment with RC planes.

I do realize how relative money is - it's "nothing" to a FAANG dev (though they probably don't have the time), it's potentially years of savings for someone working in the the 2nd / 3rd world.

Many configuration-ish things that were hard a few years ago are now way easier. with emacs 29+. There's way fewer reason to reach for doomemacs etc now because package management, configuring LSP mode, etc is much cleaner these days.

In some ways working through setting up your .emacs the way you want it is a great way to learn the tool.
I think there was no good out of that situation, keeping Eich wouldn't have been great either.

We've potentially seen a similar thing play out with 37 signals and a third of employees leaving ship after they felt betrayed by the leadership's personal positions.

I personally didn't see Eich as a good leader at the stage they were, and while not being impressed by the current leadership either I'm not sure his ousting had that much impact in the grand scheme of things.

The photos depict this species[1]. This is the traditional one on Japanese bureaucracy for very important documents so is basically irreplaceable, because historical reasons.

Edgeworthia is a relatively small, relatively slow grower so there are also two species more that provide good quality fibers and could be mixed with that. One is a relative of the mulberry tree and the other a member of the same family that includes Edgeworthia.

[1] EDIT. Selfcorrection. The photos depict an Egdeworthia, but could be other species in the same genus as other have pointed, yep.
It won’t be quicker. The laser in the demonstration was cutting through 100 micrometers of steel.

Cutting through a chain is going to take much much longer. There are already quicker methods to cut or break bike chains and disable locks.

Also cutting with a laser requires very precise alignment with respect to distance. You won’t be free handing this. You’d need to mount it on a device capable of precisely adjusting the distance as you cut deeper into the metal.

Plus it’s relatively easy to engineer laser resistant materials.
"People aren't saving enough for retirement" has been the case forever. It's human nature to prioritize urgency over importance, and when it's most impactful to save for retirement (your early 20s) you're making the least and it's really hard to justify maxing out that 401(k) and Roth IRA as a new grad in an expensive city, or in a non-HCOL area making comparatively less. Not a lot of 20-somethings want to drop a third of their gross into a retirement fund especially if they have high earnings potential as most people reading these comments do.

It's a huge stretch to pin that on the proliferation of credit.

> In the off chance that they are able to save for retirement, tax law makes it something you don't want to draw from until you're retirement age. If you have a 401k, for example, and withdrew from it to purchase a car, you're going to be expected to pay the tax on the money you put into it immediately.

Uh... good? 401(k)s are tax-advantaged to encourage using them for what they're for. And if you really, really need the money, a 10% penalty on top of the taxes you legitimately owe on that pre-tax money is nothing. The real hit comes from losing all the future gains and the inability to "replace" that money the way you can with some other tax-advantaged instruments.
Test your functions and endpoints, nobody cares about the internal wizardry. That's an implementation detail.

There's no interop story between Thunderbolt and USB. Thunderbolt is packetized PCIe over USB-C connector in the alternate mode, that's all, similar to DisplayPort over USB-C. Even the cable is different than USB.

With TB, you know exactly what are you getting. On the connector, there's a flash icon (meaning: thunderbolt) and a number (if > 3). That number says, which TB version it is.

Even with USB4, there's no convergence. USB4 made TB alternate mode optional. USB4 is no guarantee, that you can use TB.
By weight though, it's a lot less plastic being put out there. Is it worse than clothing? Maybe not, but I'd continue to be skeptical about it until some studies have been done.
All bubbles pop eventually. MongoDB had a stupid bubble for a long time because “SQL databases are dead! Everyone will be on MongoDB!” $570/share it was trading at in 2021. It’s $355 now. Still too high for a company that loses more money each quarter than it makes.
Those close up photos are pretty revealing. Not just the cover, but everything around it looks cheaply done.
You're right that such things already exist; I think it would offer two incremental improvements:

* for wood, faster and/or thicker cutting, vs. existing CNC laser cutters

* for sheet metal, neater/cleaner cutting (i.e. cleaner cuts, higher tolerances, less subsequent prep-work needed) perhaps in a smaller neater machine, vs. existing CNC plasma cutters.

Especially within the context of a CNC machine, I wouldn't be overly concerned about safety - all of the more powerful CNC laser cutters I'm aware of already come with an exclosure - both for laser safety, and to constrain smoke (before it's vented safely).
The core of Apple's problem at the moment is to some extent the opposite - the base M1 Macbook Airs were such a leap forward, that for many people there is no need to buy the M2 or M3 etc.

So while I agree that creating what looks like arbitrary limitations some of the lower models is very annoying ( particularly around external monitor support [1] ) - you can see why commercially they might have done so.

ie when your base computer is 'fast enough' how do you segment the market? ( bearing in mind Apple doesn't have that hardcore gaming market to drive sales at the high end )

Local AI ? Perhaps - their unified memory arch could give them an edge here.
The issue at hand right now, is that the discussion on Hallucinations is missing information on interaction with clients and users.
I'm excited for their improvements. It's got to be incredibly hard to start a company that does what they do. Not the repairability part, but anything with modern hardware, firmware, and software.

When I think of the other big names, they've all been around for quite some times and they were already established companies. I'm not excusing Framework, but I am excited for their future. My Framework 13 AMD has been running great for the last 6ish months. I've had a big where the screen won't come back on after a charged sleep twice now, but it's been a minute since that happened.

They may not like use of generative AI in general, but they are clearly only talking about a policy relating to original contributions to Gentoo specifically.

This is tangential, but as a user I vastly prefer distributions, because I can rely on stuff working in context, on observing the distro conventions, and on automatically receiving security updates. It is a much more pleasant and convenient mode of software sourcing.

What's propagandistic about it?

It seems pretty clear from my perspective that the Snowden papers were a high watermark of Greenwald's career. Everything else since then has been a cash-in on selling to the populist anti-establishment grift, regardless of fact. I wouldn't say Greenwald himself is "right-wing", but that end of the aisle is objectively more favorable to his beat.
I tried getting into some forms of art (mostly drawing) many times, but in the end I always find it contrived and pointless. Basically a more taxing version of playing bingo to pass the time.

> The conclusion is that for the Intel Macs it does not make much of a difference, but for the M series there is a benefit from going USB4.

It's worse than that; if you use a USB4 enclosure with an Intel Mac (or, really, just about any computer that's more than a few years old), it'll run at 10Gbit/sec (because USB3 is the fallback point, not Thunderbolt 3), but if you use it it with ARM Mac it'll run at 40Gbit/sec. If you use a Thunderbolt 3 enclosure instead it'll run at 32Gbit/sec in both cases. All bets are off if Thunderbolt 4.

As always, USB, and associated standards like Thunderbolt, continue to be absolutely baffling. I think there had been the perception that USB4 would make all this a bit less confusing, but it very much hasn't.
How can they be competent to assess car ownership but not homeownership?
Your implication being its not, or you just adding nothing here?
Rates depend heavily on credit score and incentives. It's not uncommon to find cars available with financing for less than "market" rate financing.

For example, Toyota is currently financing Tundra's at 2.25% - which is well below market rate (~5%)

> If they do, wouldn't it be better to take the money to buy the car from your savings and avoid paying interest?

Despite being able to purchase our vehicles with cash, we tend to prefer financing for a few reasons.

* It keeps our working cash liquid. Vehicles are just about the easiest thing to finance, so we can put that liquid cash to work elsewhere without having to pull from less-liquid sources.

* We can get similar or better returns if we invest the financed cash elsewhere. For example, CDs are currently offering ~5% to 5.5% return. Combine that with a financing deal, and it's basically just "free" cash for financing vs buying outright.
This will take expenditure that utility shareholders won't tolerate. Most of the electrical grid in the US gets used until it just can't work safely anymore, and the determinant of whether it can work safely is whether it has already caused a very hazardous condition that simply can't be ignored by the public-at-large.

They're not going to suddenly say, "Oh, sure, we can make a decent gain in efficiency by updating the grid, let's build those projects out."
Not me.

Buying a house comes with a lot of responsibility and you basically give up any freedoms to be able to pay your mortgage, saved up for any repairs, and hope that a natural disaster doesn't wipe out your largest investment.

Comparatively, we're at the best time to be alive in history. I don't even know where the person I'm replying to lives, but I don't they will receive this message almost instantly.

I can learn about anything I want to, whenever I want.

I can travel almost anywhere without fear of getting lost.

I can order exotic things that I'd never see sticked on local shelves at the click of a mouse.

Life is pretty convenient and amazing and I'm okay sacrificing stress-filled homeownership for other luxuries.

(Not that we should have to, mind you, but that wasn't the question posed.)
The reality is a bit different, the work on Python 3.6 was checked into the Cosmopolitan repo and I have been able to use it for production workloads that are in pure python. [0]

As Cosmopolitan Libc has evolved, it has been possible to compile more software without modifications, and that includes latest Python through a project called superconfigure[1].

Last person who tried to reproduce it from scratch did it last week (granted it too them a few days of solid work) but in the end they ended with a portable binary with Python 3.11.9, brotli, ssl and asyncio for their work related project.[2]

Production? Delivery? Who cares, go get them clicks!

According to multiple accounts on the Cybertruck Owner’s Club forum and on X on Friday, Tesla has sent a message notifying customers with delivery appointments that it would need to cancel their appointments. Some users in the forum said the issue was due to a problem with the accelerator lubricant, causing the pedal to slip, while Omar of Whole Mars Blog noted that the delivery pause would take place over the next seven days.

> Space launch is not like cars or really most other products. Your customer is highly technical and highly informed and they absolutely will not launch on a rocket that doesn't meet certain design criteria and in many cases they will require the ability to review the rocket's actual design blueprints and software (with NDA in place). NASA and the DOD will demand this, full stop.

I must admit I'm honestly not impressed with my Framework. I'm sure it's decent for a Windows laptop - the repairability alone is certainly enough to set it apart there - but coming from a MacBook, everything's just.. worse.

Were MacBook upgrades not so expensive (all i want is 16GB!) and my love affair with NixOS, I'd probably have regretted buying one.
