> What happens if there's no credit and you thought there was

Initial authorization only takes £0.10 and is there to validate your card is active.

The actual charge gets applied 24h later and can overdraw even an account with no arranged overdraft through a transport-only exception with the card networks.

In the end it means you only need 0.10£ to travel for 24 hours, and can keep doing so as long as you fund your account before the initial 24h period (if you fail and it declines it'll retry up to a few days, and there's a way to make it retry online - until it succeeds, that particular card will get refused at the barriers).
I build .tf files from parameters for each host in the Makefile (and script which knows the vSphere topology) for one-shot execution (it only creates the VM, it doesn’t manage the lifecycle) and also template config that needs to be done before deployment - there are plenty of dependencies

That doesn't mean there isn't anyone who does it.
Typically surge protectors have a little light to let you know if the surge circuitry is still good. Others will fail safe, meaning the won't power on if the circuitry is bad. Cheap ones may do neither.

Either way, if your house has had a surge and other equipment has died that wasn't surge protected, probably a good time to replace all surge protectors in the house, they're not really meant to survive multiple large surges. They shunt the power destructively, just somewhere you don't care.
I think this post has a lot of preconceptions about life. I bet it wouldn't be biological any more, even our society is moving to digital: AIs , drones. Even if it were, why support the whole body, if supporting the brain is enough? I bet future space space ships won't be piloted by humans because we are sensitive to acceleration, temperature, radiation and are pretty short lived. Also we don't have much redundancy and are not very energy efficent. Just look at the trend with mobile phones.At one point in time we used notes to extend our memory, then digital things like PDAs now phones and watches and at some point it will become an implant in our head, extending us as humans. The human of tomorrow will have little in common with human of today, so you can't judge the form of life will take and its requirementfrom a more advanced civilization.
I think a better example that might be more broadly relatable would be "a lot of latency between writing something and seeing if it works", ie. long compile times, slow tests, long startup time for an executable, needing to restart a server, etc.

There is no "turn off slack notifications" solutions to this kind of thing, and it's a big persistent flow-shattering time sink for me.
I think I’m more focused on protocol similarities than the pinout.

DuckDuckGo works great in my experience as of late.
The government/DoD isn't a single entity. Especially when it comes to waived, bigoted special access programs where only a handful of people will even know the programs exist. So just because one person says "oh we don't have any evidence of these programs" doesn't mean they actually know. It just means they haven't been read in.

Here is one good example. The current pentagon DoD UAP office AARO released a report [https://media.defense.gov/2024/Mar/08/2003409233/-1/-1/0/DOP...] saying they found no credible evidence of the reverse engineering programs. But when the office of the Director of National Intelligence was asked about it, they said they could not endorse the findings of the report https://www.liberationtimes.com/home/top-intelligence-office...
Evolutionary part of the brain to always be looking for obstacles or issues with what's happening in the moment. Clearly humans who were more laissez faire, got eliminated either by nature or society.

Same here. Aerobic exercise, as a long exertion, probably activates some part of the brain that quells it.
I guess that the outcomes of these lawsuits will tell.

I'd phrase your question differently though: how much responsibility does Tesla have in selling a mass consumer product that allows consumers to be irresponsible and negligent in a friction-less manner.
Cut salaries 90% and quality will drop. It's a false economy however you slice it or wherever the replacements are based. It never works.
I wonder if AIs would even decide to do things in the same way we do. Most of what humans do has come from generations of having to operate within constraints that change over time. AI gets to leapfrog those constraints for a whole different kind.

Why would we assume what comes from them will even aspire to "being like humans"?

The number of reasons AIs might not add the same things to an audio version of a book (the context we're talking about in this thread) is essentially infinite. It seems vastly more likely that they won't add what the author adds than that they will.

Humanity may not have a moat, but each individual human does, especially when it comes to art, where I'd include writing.
I agree with you, but your comment strikes me as unfair nitpicking, because the OP is referring to information that has been encoded in words.

LoRa is radio communication so part of EE, not CS.

Otherwise, I'm going to toss TV shows as part of CS, since Amazon Prime and Netflix streaming are things. Also, it's the original programming.
Could this also be used within neural networks?
Technically you are just feeding it power from a different utility company than the electric company.
I interpreted it as a peak vs off-peak thing

You might be able to buy either a peak or off-peak paper ticket, but you have to choose.

If you make the wrong decision, you'll end up paying £3.90 too much. With contactless, you literally can't make the wrong decision (you pay the fare at the moment you're riding the train, so it can charge you accordingly)
Sometimes I think I’m the only person in the world without some insanely specific hobby they are passionate enough about to write blog posts about.
I don't actually think it solves any problems. You still have to null check.
If Null is not a subtype of MyType, then you wouldn't be able to assign null to a variable decalred as MyType, without breaking the rest of the rules of Java. I don't really see how this could work, even theoretically.
look up "frequent batch auctions" -- same idea but on shorter timescales.
Quite - one makefile rather than dozens of scripts which all do practically the same things.
Hm, that's a good point.

You're even less able to defend yourself.
Why can't they just put the electronics in a refrigerator that can drop to these temperatures?

Are we able to also simulate the radiation in a laboratory?

I will wager that this was done prior to launch, and current longevity is not a complete surprise.
Learning new things is good. This should be encouraged. But going from SystemVerilog to Chisel is not a small step. It's not really a question of what's better or worse. It's a paradigm shift in the way you think about how a design is captured and expressed. It's not like learning how to use a new dishwasher or driving a new car. It's learning a new stack of tools and flows. All under the pressure of delivering a new product on spec, on time and on budget. For many teams running in a tight cycle of design->tape out, it is not realistic to ask them to "learn something new".

When you change the context, the perception changes. If you're a grad student who has chosen to dive head first into Chisel after already mastering functional programming and want to get more into hardware design, that's a different story.

Quadratic speedup, IIRC - a 128-bit key can be found by brute force in (roughly) 2^128 steps by a normal computer, or 2^64 steps by a quantum computer. This applies to all brute force algorithms, so just make your keys and hashes twice as long as you think they should be, and you're good.

Consumers are already irresponsible (DUIs, road rage, inattentive driving), how is Tesla making it worse with a system that aggressively determines attention via camera and wheel torque? Should they not sell to irresponsible drivers based on their driving record and insurance scoring? I’d tolerate that if it meant responsible drivers don’t get dragged down by the low to median quality driver.

My experience goes back to the early ‘90s. I’ll admit an intense hatred then and the occasional support call, but that was mainly because I was a network engineer in a publishing company and AppleTalk was a chatty POS protocol. Since maybe ‘00s managing many, many apple devices (not just my own), I’d bet I can count on both hands with a finger or two left over that I needed to call support. Personally, I have only used Apple devices since 2009 and have only engaged support on an Apple Watch back in 2019, which was my own damn fault for smacking it into a wall and swimming a mile right after bricking it.
One of the truly great programmers I met at VMware was almost obsessive in the way that he thought about not just commit messages but the entire structure of the commit log. The goal was to make changes appear as a flow of understandable commits that build to some greater goal.

We have in some respects done this to ourselves. We've created a funding model such that watching ads is the primary way we pay for the content and services that we consume. Then, our desire for privacy causes us to restrict the data that websites can collect about us, leading to less targeted and therefore less valuable ads.

So now we have to watch ever more ads which are ever less valuable.

For me, I'd rather that companies had better tracking and could therefore show me fewer, more personally relevant ads. And maybe some strong laws that prevent them from sharing my data with the government.
> "computer science" and "computer science" are the same domain, it's not a good idea to use the same acronym.

But “radio communication" is not “computer science”, even though people sometimes plug radio transceivers into computers, just like “tv shows” aren't “computer science” just because people sometimes view or store their shows on a computer, and “bicycles” aren’t “computer science” because sometimes people mount computers on their bikes.

The two methods seem to be independent, wonder if you can combine them for even better performance.

Interestingly both seem to indirectly modify the optimisation process, in my opinion effectively trying to fix a bad optimiser. Seems like we still have a long way to go after Adam...
> or over 200 raspberry pis on USB chargers that use 5W each

Those little switcher bricks are horribly inefficient: the 15W one I just pulled out of a drawer draws 0.8A on the primary. Realistically you're going to max out a 15A circuit around 20-30 of those, not 96 (1440/15).
> Wait, are you really asking why a search engine would care how well it finds what the user is looking for?

While a useful metric, it's an unknowable metric.

1. You have no idea if the user even knows what they are looking for, so how would you know that they found it?

2. You have no idea if the user found what they are looking for, maybe what they are looking for isn't on the internet?

3. You have no idea if the user is even looking for something, maybe it was just a cat running across the keyboard?

The only way to learn the answer is to have humans talk to humans. You can't game your way through it by using metrics.

It reminds me of this one time the CEO asked our team to add a metric for "successful websites" (we were a hosting provider) and we rebuffed with "define successful." They immediately mentioned page views, which we replied "what about a restaurant with a downloadable menu that google links to directly?" and back and forth with "successful" never being defined for all verticals and all cases. It just isn't possible to define using heuristics.
Valentine's Day Sexonomics (2010)
The primary historical motivation of the EITC was to "reform" the former AFDC welfare program. There was concern that AFDC was growing too quickly: welfare rolls increased from fewer than 1 million families in 1964, to more than 3 million in 1973. There was also concern that the AFDC program discouraged working. The EITC is structured to incentivize work, even at low wages. Another precipitating motivation was a recession in 1974 (EITC dates to 1975).

Getting into Big Tech Reliably
If it was useful/needed, it wouldn't be laying in unguarded piles in the desert. What's left over is the stuff that's so useless that even the poorest scavengers aren't interested in it.

Even if it might be useful elsewhere, it isn't in that other place because it's so worthless that transporting it isn't worth it. "Would be" useful elsewhere just means "useless where it is".

Just like most of the stuff that Amazon gets criticized for throwing in the trash is likely either stuff that's unsafe or so worthless that the pallet-of-random-crap buyers don't want it.

> How can the US worker complete when they have US housing and college costs, not Indian ones, that need to be paid for?

In my experience, US workers, even with much higher wages, are simply better than Indian workers being paid much lower wages. Note that Indians being paid US wages, in the US, are fine - you just can't expect much if you're paying peanuts.

I have had experiences where entire offshore teams have contributed significant negative value. This false economy is as false as they come.

I think a bigger danger to US wages is European offshoring.

> Yes, it’s partisan, but I don’t think there’s a news site that isn’t partisan and, as you say, goofy.

I guess what I was trying to say was it's not a very good piece and doesn't offer a balanced perspective.

> This is true. But consider that a little bit of subversion applied over a decade or two can make things uncomfortable for one side, tipping the scales that way.

I considered that, but I think this has less to do with universities politicizing their hiring process, and more to do with shifting societal norms and external factors; ex., Universities are more secular and multicultural than they were 50 years ago, public schools pay less.

> A century later, you’re 1000x more likely to find Das Kapital being read at university than Atlas Shrugged.

I think this is a bad example and false equivocation -- Das Kapital is a scientific text and analysis of economic models that was a work-in-progress for the entirety of Marx's life. Atlas Shrugged is a fiction novel written by a person who literally named her own philosophy and tried to build rules around it.

Also, Atlas Shrugged is commonly assigned reading in high school in the US.

> I just think we need more granola-eating chemical engineers and more libertarian English professors. Running society is about negotiating tradeoffs. How can we make intelligent tradeoffs when only one perspective is present?

I guess what I'm saying is: more perspectives are present. Just because all professors in a university vote Democrat doesn't mean they all hold carbon-copy political views. There's room for nuance outside of a meaningless metric like "50% of teachers should be Republican".
Of which there are none because RS-422 is not a protocol. And if you’re talking about MIDI the electrical interface part of the spec (ie what can actually be compared to RS-422), not the protocol part, it is a point to point isolated current loop system - it is hard to be much different than RS-422 a differential voltage multipoint system.

That you can run the MIDI protocol over RS-422 is no more notable than that you can run it over smoke signals or semaphores.
In practice almost every common short to medium range interconnect has been used commercially for MIDI at some point, including SCSI, Ethernet, bespoke fiber in addition to what was already said.

Probably won't be since MIDI 1.0 solved most problems good enough. Even MIDI 2.0 after decades is mostly just increased resolution. The only thing I'm aware of that's really missing is polyphonic aftertouch.
At some point you have to give liability to the end user or we can't have ADAS anymore.

Alternatively, the ADAS providers could take the liability on themselves. That would be a strong show of confidence and commitment to their technology and to saving lives.

I think the reason this keeps coming up is encoded in your second sentence, in conjunction with the HN medium: LoRa and LoRA are both, unfortunately, things that the target audience are likely to be interested in and/or knowledgeable with, but a general audience is not.

Also, both use a non-standard case mix.
I've actually found the opposite to be true. That usually the people harping for rich commit messages are the ones not thinking of others. That they are trying to get their coworkers to bend or produce extra work just to make their personal workflow more ergonomic. The information they seek is already redundantly documented, often 3 times over in the form of PR messages, jira tickets, requirements documents, slack history, etc.
From a psychological perspective there are only three modes to explain chronic anxiety (in order of severity): brain lesions impacting the amygdala, a combination of damage to various other brain circuits with a similar result, or poor adversity conditioning during childhood.

For persons with actual brain damage anti-anxiety medications are necessary and in extreme conditions prevent catastrophic autonomic organ failure for organs managed by the brain. In many cases anti-anxiety medications are over prescribed to people with minor emotion coping disorders.
I just skimmed over LoRA+ and DoRA and I see no reason why these improvements could not go hand in hand. Actually, LoRA+ seems to be about efficient training while DoRA seems about improving the ability to actually learn, making it significantly more robust. Although I still have my questions on how the improvements of LoRA+ would be applied to the magnitude vector.

I recently watched a documentary about the ongoing Voyager missions[1], and this same tactic (turning instrument heaters off to save power, hoping the instruments still produce useful data) continues to be used with success.

In that documentary, it was remarked by one of the engineers that scientists often designed these instruments to be more robust than what was expected.

I would add that's in some sense "externalizing" an ideal flow state in the sense of the article. Real flows are hesitating and often emerge incoherently. So you end up reworking the commits to represent the path you would have followed had you understood things fully at the start.

Life jackets seem like they’d be problematic in an enclosed cabin where their use is if you’ve crashed and are taking on water. That’s a bit different compared to a pleasure craft or other vessel that has an outside deck and likely more time to react.

But I don’t really know things. Perhaps most float plane emergencies that require life jackets don’t suffer from my perception of the issue.
