This is a nice one. It solves a problem but I did notice something.

This solution isn't disruptive so FAANG competitors most likely can suffocate you by trying to replicate.

I will like to know if there's a disruption this product has that I might not have seen or noticed?

If it doesn't have in totality then try solving this problem in a disruptive way.

It reminds me a joke. At the pet store:

- Sure, but just two.
- Why only two?
- Because one speaks Spanish and the other translates.
It's still much wider-bodied than any glider I've seen. I'm guessing this is because of the need for larger payload bays.
I don't really understand what this is doing that margins aren't.
You're not writing the software controller for your switch. You're not interfacing with the firmware of your giant lithium battery parked in your house. You're not soldering anything, or dealing with more than 15a or so. It's really not the same.
It isn't just that. The average person these days cannot distinguish a quality difference between the iPhone 13 and 15. The iPhone camera has been the jewel in Apple's crown but it's reached a stage of "more than good enough" some time ago, so what real reason is there to upgrade?
> In ethics, just terrorism is a well debated concept.

In what way is terrorism against an occupying external force, and violent extremists targeting the legitimate and democratic government of their own country, the same? Why are you conflating them?

> Violence, it depends. If someone argues violence is never justified, that would be a pacifist position.

I said specifically that violent extremism is not justified, and I feel pretty at peace (sorry!) with that statement.

I think there are morally and politically okay applications of violence, but this is a great example of something that is neither.

> or how either relates to the previous statements.

Because my point was sympathizing with violent extremists is politically wrong. They are not noble and they are not victims. They have chosen violent means to a violent end when much better alternatives exist. We have no responsibility to take anything they say seriously, and analyzing their disaffection seriously is not some lofty high-minded exercise in empathy, but a mistake.
> Users aren't presented with a "barrage" of consent dialogs. There's not even that many of them

And that is the result of a lot of hard work and pushing back on... well, on things like this. There are already enough that many people have been trained to click Accept without reading. Any new source of consent dialogs must be scrutinized very closely.

> being able to access a serial port is a niche case where it does make sense -- just like accessing a web cam or microphone.

If you agree to webcam access, then the site can see and record you visually. If you agree to microphone access, then the website can hear and record you aurally. If you agree to serial access, then your "TSMX9200b7 Larangipone GmbH" can... er... do something? Maybe it can turn on a blinky light. Maybe it can capture audio through an embedded IoT microphone (or speaker that shares wires with something else). Maybe it can use the debug interface on something you didn't realize had a debug interface to reprogram the device to emulate a keyboard or ethernet device and hack your system. Are you going to whitelist devices owned by big companies with lawyers and screw over experimenters? Blacklist devices so the well-behaved hackers won't hack you?

I wish we lived in a world where we could just add consent dialogs or config settings to allow things like this. Instead, we live in a world where if something like this is enabled, you'll get phishing emails with support tips for fixing your browser issues (or slowness) by going to about:config and twiddling some setting that is meaningless to the 1% of recipients who matter.
Lovely detail! Thank you for pointing this out!
They are small and thus take less space on the desk, or in your bag (perfect for traveling and on-site-work). And not all keys are necessary for everyone. Numpad is a big part with little use for many people. And the newer generation of keyboards is often programmable, so you can remap them on very sophisticated levels on the keyboard itself. This reduces the demand for more keys even more.

For example, on my keyboard I have no dedicated cursor-keys, but they are mapped to hjkl and wasd with a thumb-key. Function-keys are similar mapped to number-keys with the same thumb-key. This makes writing from homerow much faster, and I need to move my hands not so often. I basically just must my fingers, instead of the whole hand.

The problem with the A380 is airlines didn't need enough of them in order to have enough of them. Thus they couldn't achieve any economy of scale in maintenance and spares. Only Emirates/Singapore did and have been very successful with their fleets as a result.

Thanks for this! My current mechanical keyboard is great, but doesn't have an ergonomic layout. I tried a different split mechanical keyboard once and it was way too small for my hands, and didn't have built-in tenting, so it ended up being horrible for me. This appears to be a much better option & I'm going to check it out now.

And for those reading this thread, if you need a mouse, I've been extremely satisfied with Evoluent's vertical mouse[0]. Unlike most mouse manufacturers, they're very serious about selling what customers actually need - durable hardware, multiple sizes options for every model, just enough extra buttons, and a wired/wireless option for each model. Can't possibly recommend them enough - I went through 3 other vertical mice and absolutely hated all of them (all of them too small, and shockingly Anker's is very low quality; but really I don't trust any with a cheap BT connector).

Installing an EV charger involves plugging it in. There aren't any gotchas and only requires a NEMA 14-50 receptacle be installed by an electrician and usually requires a permit.

80% of Borgers customers have over the counter stock. Trump Media was their highest market cap customer. I'm not sure you can argue this, given the history of SEC looking at BF Burgers audits.
I have read that the architectural license comes with access to ARM engineers expertise, internal build tooling, validation and testing systems etc. So whatever processor design Apple may be doing, they are definitely doing it with the guard rails on.
The first generation will work like that.

Then they will introduce various defects into the manufacturing process to decrease the lifespan (and they'll say it's cost) and the batteries will last 10 years max. Maybe 15 if you're lucky.

Ask HN: How does one begin working with medical ultrasound?
My goal is to find some way to build an app or two that on top of video feed data sent out from medical grade ultrasound. I'm thinking the kind used for precision IV implant/pregnancy/etc. Anyone have experience with this?

Ideally there is a simulator to run on my computer, but if not I could invest in a piece of equipment. ebay seems to have affordable options, but there are many options so please share if you recommend any specific equipment. I assume the more hackable the better? Please let me know if I'm off-base on that as well.

After a few days of searching it seems so niche and proprietary that I can't even really tell if there's a standard for ultrasound data. If it's all proprietary, anyone know how to go about teaming up with people in the industry?

> My point is, people who do argue for reducing consumption must consider the fact that consumption hinges on consumers, so either they should adopt or they have rejected their own premises

This argument is absurd and naive. Mass murder and your suicide would also reduce consumers. Clearly there are other factors to consider over and above the raw numbers, many of which are cultural and subjective.

Can I ask you a question?

Out of all the countless times you've surely seen this particular argument play out on the internet, have you ever seen it go somewhere productive?

"Yet you participate in society, curious!" is not a productive response to the suggestion "We should improve society somewhat"

Either we do this voluntarily and as orderly as possible, or it just happens for us. Your response seems to indicate a complete unawareness of the impending situation our species is going to be facing.

Yes, other large imperial countries are doing imperialism.

Nobody complaining about western imperialism supports those things either, and the focus is on western ones because they presumably live in a western country and have more influence there than elsewhere. Its also a fair critism that the west is more hypocritical given its big talk about freedoms and liberties just for it to install dictators whenever it's politically profitable.
Did Jeff Bezos launch a public company with essentially no revenue, but his initials as the stock ticker so his fans would buy the stock anyway? And did it turn out the audits of his company are entirely fake?

Sure, which is why you see other midrange APUs use >128-bit buses, eg PS4 & PS5 are both 256-bit buses w/ GDDR.

Similarly, ultra high end APUs like the Xeon Max are doing on-package HBM for truly monstrous memory bandwidth numbers.

The thing is that nobody else is really trying to make anything like an M3 Pro, and I don't know if they even will. It's a really weird product. Big dies are expensive, hence everyone pushing towards chiplets. A really great spot to split up dies is between compute units that are largely independent - which the CPU & GPU actually are. There's a few workloads where unified memory helps, but most don't. So splitting those apart makes a ton of sense still. Then also if you push them hard to squeeze out all the performance you can, they both get very hot - so you want them physically far apart for cooling reasons. At which point you might as well just give them their own memory which can also be further specialized for their respective needs as one is latency biased and the other bandwidth biased. And now you're just back to traditional desktop architecture - it still makes just way too much sense for the high end.

It makes sense for Apple since they focus almost exclusively on laptops and you get exactly the single mix of CPU & GPU they decide, just like it does for consoles where again they have a midrange power budget & a single CPU/GPU configuration over millions of units. But as soon as different product specializations show up and different workload demands are catered to, coupling the CPU & GPU like that kinda doesn't make sense?
This is not exposing. This is amplifying. There’s a very big difference.
Yes indeed. When governments lead wars against each other, it is the populations that suffer, and knowledge and culture get destroyed on all sides.
What do you use to map midi commands to keystrokes?
This is a good answer. Don't forget that H100 class compute is US export controlled and there are some hard limitations we sign agreements on, talking about what they can and cannot be used for (like building bombs and such).

In addition to the suggestion to be evaluated for TMJ, be more mindful of posture. If you're sitting with your head craned forward, that's called tech neck and people do it with phones too. Pull your chin back. Your head is about 16 lbs, that weight shouldn't be supported at an angle constantly. You may need better glasses, or increase the logical DPI of your display so you can see the text better.

It is worth mentioning that many states do significant amounts of controlled burns as a routine thing. Growing up in the Midwest, it was just a common thing, nothing out of the ordinary. I think in the southeast, it's even more common. It really helps limit the damage when an uncontrolled fire does start

For some reason out here in the West Coast, there's an aversion to doing enough controlled burns. I'm not sure why, though someone pointed out a federal vs state thing to me once.
OK, but you need to clarify your statement. As you said,

>>> note taking and documentation is required by law.

So then, the EMR not a value add, which is also what I wrote. It just so happens that in the US the primary reason is to get paid, and its also why some doctors still eke out a living without an EMR (but still with some kind of paper medical files)

The battery made by the company mentioned uses an aqueous electrolyte construction which is theoretically safer from what I read, but I don't know if it can be made small for a portable.

The fact it supports more cycles and tolerates a broader temperature range than Lithium counts points towards safety too. Lithium isn't happy above like 30 Celsius, which a fast charging portable device can _easily_ reach.
there is possibly a need for more unified standard across different implementations particularly from a software development and API design perspective.

1. A majority of shareholders voted for the original pay deal. They deserve to have their vote respected

2. I don't judge company strategy based on statements by disgruntled ex-employees. It would be naive to do so.

3. Things Musk says in shareholder meetings are SEC audited. So if he says the Model 2 is coming, it will come.

4. The Tesla Supercharger network is great. But it's not a competitive advantage as it's open to other brands.

5. As I said, compare the number of BEVs sold and the margins, whether we're looking at startups or legacy auto. Come back to me when you've found one that comes close to Tesla in Q1 2024 sales and margins.

6. You're arguing in bad faith. As I said, the carbon-wrapped motor is just one example of innovation, and the Model 3 Highland is just one example of product improvement. Your point was that Tesla "failed" to improve their products. That point is easily disproven.

7. X.com is not filled with bots and Nazis in my experience. If it was, I wouldn't use it. What data do you base your argument on?

8. Eberhard hadn't sold a single production vehicle at Tesla. Elon Musk was co-founder, chairman, product architect and the main source of funding when Roadster (Tesla's first car) was designed and produced. He oversaw the design of the Roadster from the beginning. Musk won the Global Green 2006 product design award and the 2007 Index Design award for the design of the Roadster. Not Eberhard. Musk. Production of the Roadster started in 2008, a year after Eberhard had been replaced at Tesla.

Not surprising at all. Vo2 in general is not great metric for elites and specificity is king. Which is why you rarely ever see elites cross train much
I've worked in a place where reviews were obsessed with coding style. No one noticed serious bugs, but forget a space in the right place and you'd be doomed. And yet people still managed to rewrite stuff to their preferred style while managing to not violate any rule. No prescription about function and variable names? they'd change every single one their way. No prescription about argument alignment, they'd change it. Everything not esplicitly forbidden was an outlet to express their creativity or maybe tame their frustration.

Most of the stuff in the lee valley catalog is the same garbage you can get at rockler or any other tool outlet. The only thing possibly drool worthy are the Veritas tools. For the longest time I felt the same as you, I had assumed everything from LV was the same quality or at least close to the Veritas line. The truth is most of the LV stuff is garbage. On the other hand everything from Lie Nielsen is phenomenal, it's just not always in stock.

I spent a lot of time searching for and restoring old tools. I finally realized I was spending way more time on the tools than actually using them.

Oh, sweet summer child. We don't pay 2X because there's too much paperwork. There's too much paperwork because 2X spending can be used to justify a lot of paperwork. The delta in spending is due to the delta in pricing power that the US payer/provider complex has vs what is seen in other countries.
