You apparently didn't read what you posted. Texas has been the largest chip producer in the nation for a long time. None of that had to do with Biden. Texas Instruments has three fabs a stones throw from me.

Also, HR 7178 CHIPS for America Act was the first recent CHIPS Act, and it was under Trump and Republicans. If you read the wiki page, they completely omit how this all happened.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/7178...

Democrats abandoned the first bill because it was a Republican bill, then side loaded it into a Supreme Court Funding bill. Democrats literally copied the bill, added a bunch of language for Unions, subsidies and then called it their own. They removed the tax credit provision, and literally handed them money when they are already profitable.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIPS_and_Science_Act

Biden claimed credit for finally signing the bill, after subsidies and other hiring requirements were added to it. Also of note, all of these agreements are non-binding.

Micron signed a deal today. They are going to do like most, dig a hole and take the money and leave.

TSMC has completely stalled. There are not enough educated to workers on the project, and Biden's demands are creating a number of problems. They are going to stall until after the election, and if Trump loses, pull out completely.

As for the electrical issues in Texas, I live here, and we do not have electrical issues. My power has been off once in 10 years and that was during the cold weather in 2021. I have friends I play PUBG/COD with in California and their power is out all the time. I do not understand why people complain about power in Texas. If you drive across the state we have more solar and wind farms than anyone. That includes nations.

Biden promised a lot of things and did not deliver. He was supposed to decriminalize marijuana, didn't happen. He promised to reduce my healthcare costs, it didn't happen. They have more than doubled in 24 months.

I was onboard for immigrants, but after my sisters daughter was killed by one, which has destroyed our family, I am against it.

The amount of misinformation flowing right now is more than when Trump was in office.

I am voting for RFK. He seems like the lesser of all evils. As for Texas, Democrats here are not like Democrats everywhere else. We are libertarian hippies. Quit boxing us in all together.
By the headline, I was surprised Circuit City was still business, but then saw that this actually occurred in 2004.
More generally, games really don't tax computers very much. You can get a 400gbps network interface but it won't speed up your game. It does require a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot to hit that speed, though. It's the same for SSDs. Nobody is going to notice the difference between 10µs and 9µs 4K random read latency when launching Grand War United: Cyber 99, but it could substantially speed up the critical path of a database query. Games are not pushing the frontiers here.
There is a standard profile called 'RVA22' and 'RVA23' after that. If you watch the presentations from google on this, they will almost certainty target one of those two standards, very likely RVA23, specially if its now delayed.

Android could also define its own profile, but there probably wont be a reason for why they would need to do this.
Sure, I made that choice at a time where after upgrading, Ubuntu suddenly wanted netplan, debian stayed with /etc/network/interfaces and I think fedora went with networkmanager. So I though f- it, they all have systemd so I'll give networkd a spin. And never looked back.

So maybe don't just switch out of the blue right now if you've got a working setup, but maybe keep it in mind for the next time. :)

It makes people feel that they're smarter than you. See also functional programming. That said sometimes it's useful as s way to auto generate imperative actions.
You do have to learn a few new things, yes. But it's not too difficult. We all have to learn new things sometimes.

I spent around 15 minutes a few weeks ago learning how to do a few things with journalctl, and I came away from it with a great appreciation for its power.
I assume it's related to revenue somehow. They could hide true shuffle somewhere deep in settings, not on by default, whatever..

I spend a good portion of my time changing playlists and restarting playlists just to get around their fake shuffle, and I still end up hearing repeated songs. It's extremely frustrating. I even tried out Amazon music, ready to make the switch, but my family members don't want to move with me, so I'm just dealing with Spotify for now. May end up paying for my own Amazon/Other music service as well.

Anathem is the one book of his I've read that I thought had a really satisfying ending. It is also by far my favorite book of his. I wish he would revisit that universe. With Seveneves, it seemed to me that the quality of writing and pacing of the story changed somewhat abruptly near the end.

It's high time that CEO's be fined and/or forfeit their big paychecks for a breach. It's only then will they take these seriously.

The SOP seems to be, we get hacked, your data is compromised, we will provide you free credit report monitoring and now I am away on my private jet.

If the government cannot do anything to stop these monopolistic organizations at least they should pass stringent laws to prevent such a massive breach of members data.
I am not elbow deep into Python ecosystem, but how many python code bases are fully type-hinted?

Maybe I am overlooking because I am not a pythonista, but when looking at this code [1] I see only some superficial hints. Looking at `_make_command`, I need to look inside the body to see that the first argument is expected (?) to be callable (it just ignores otherwise).

You're very kind, thank you

For others wanting to play along at home:

$ docker run --name net8 --rm -it mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:8.0-jammy-arm64v8 bash -c '
cd /root
dotnet new -d -o console0 console
cd console0
dotnet publish --nologo --self-contained -v d -r osx-arm64 -o console0-darwin-arm64
sleep 600
'

although it didn't shake out

$ docker cp net8:/root/console0/console0-darwin-arm64/console0 ./console0
$ ./console0
Killed: 9

I tried with and without --self-contained and the biggest difference was that self-contained emitted a bazillion .dll files and without just emitted the binary. I case the context isn't obvious, $(dotnet new console) is a skeleton for the infamous WriteLine("Hello, World") without doing crazy whacko stuff
These absolutely SUCK as answers to that question. They entirely miss the point. They provide a specific answer to a general problem.

The problem with systemnd is it assumes that it's possible for all needs to be predicted and accounted for ahead of time. While "look around at directories and files, and grep within them" works after the fact without any special knowledge or tools. The person who wrote the log file did not need to know how someone will maybe try to access it 23 years later on a different OS. It's just a regular file that can be read by anything over any kind of channel on any os. The person finding themselves needing to read the file does not need to have any particular command installed, or installable, or runnable. It does not require the happy path in order to work.

I have a joke I always say, often self-deprecating making fun of my own self for the way I do things sometimes, but also when I'm trying to commiserate with a customer so they don't feel intimidated by "the expert" or "the engineer": "37 easy steps!"

Every answer that starts with "it's simple, just journalctl ..." is FUCKING 37 easy steps. The very name of the program itself is a trainwreck. journalctl... it takes me 18 seconds just to type it.

systemd is great for managing exquisitely washed masses of drone vms. It's utter and complete shit for direct administration, operation, development, debugging, flexibility, or custom integrations.
I've got "just" Amazon Q at home (not paying Copilot prices for my personal projects) and just typing "log.Printf(" and waiting a second it usually gets what I'm trying to log either very close or exactly right.

It's not like we're breaking new ground in the field of computer science here. The LLMs have been taught with terabytes of code and me writing a Go API glue program is perfectly in their wheelhouse.
I think for somebody fresh out of Google and an RM for Python survival is not going to be a pressing concern. The streets aren't exactly filled with starving ex-Googlers. Again, getting fired sucks, but it's not exactly an atrocity which necessitates the overthrowing of the whole political system.

How is it more dangerous than cigarettes or alcohol?

Prescriptions are basically a formality. There are a certain set of symptoms you have to describe to a doctor in order to get any particular drug, then you go to a doctor and get the prescription. It has to be this way because many of the conditions have no non-invasive tests to determine if the patient is lying and as much as the DEA would like it to be the case, doctors are not supposed to be cops and they can't be effective doctors if they have to play CYA all day.

But at that point all the law is doing is propping up pharma profits and inflating healthcare costs by routing recreational use through the insurance system, and screw that. If you want to eat pot brownies then you should a) pay the market price, not a tax to corporate shareholders, and b) pay it yourself, not stick the cost on everyone who buys health insurance.
Your edit is the goal, it's why content creators have a new influx in views after getting "canceled". People who forgot the youtuber existed before cancellation come back to see what's going on.

In this case, hate is attention that helps algorithms. It's why shortform media is usually inflammatory, you get more engagement out of it.

Hate and other powerful emotions are a good sign, they can promote you to people who don't hate you.
Five stages of accepting provably robust anonymization
sure, just brainstorming, but a good use case is xferring into google docs or other online collabs like google slides, confluence, etc.

I just did a cut and paste into google docs so I could split it apart and reference sections and my simple copy and paste including the headers "Transcription" every page, so if you could put those in a separate body/section of the doc that might help.

also, pdf is the king format, but perhaps otuputing to other doc formats would help people

one other thing I used to like in a transcription service from audio files I use is timestamps. there are many ways to do them and they could get cluttered. i usually turn them off for that other project, but since I'm doing this to critique a yt video, it would be handy to know at what times various things were said so I can go back and listen and also tell people "check out what he says at 1:35"

again, great job! i was surprised how fast and so far so accurate it is. I have not scrutinized it hard yet, but there are no obvious homophones (which plagues e.g. Zoom's AI summary/transcription).

This is my biggest hang up about the iPad. Hardware is great. The OS is… passable. Sort of.

For me: I can’t do computer things that I want to do (mainly code, but sometimes game, etc).

I ended up buying a used Surface Pro X. A bit slow, but I like that I can run something like VS Code and a Node server, or even a real web browser with network debugging tools, all using a touchscreen while on a bus or in an airplane.

(For my gaming fix, I find that GeForce Now or Moonlight work pretty well for streaming my existing games — not as practical to do on a bus though.)
Critical care paramedic: that's very much the bigger issue. Some life flight helicopters are being fitted for ECMO and there is NOT much space in a helicopter, once you fit in two providers, a patient on a gurney and care equipment (most HEMS units are Bell 429s and EC/H-135s - MSP uses much larger AW-139s).

https://live.staticflickr.com/3142/2639039443_ba623ddca0_b.j... shows the working space on a -135. Note that access to most of the patient is heavily restricted - only chest and head, really.

Still, to be clear, we are not really at the 'portable' stage either. There's about 65lb of equipment needed for an ECMO patient just for the ECMO itself, beyond other things like Lifepaks for monitoring.
Well, it's great that you did some tests a few years back, but I'm not sure how that qualifies you to make such a sweeping generalization about CJK text encoding. It's easy to dismiss UTF-16's benefits when you're only looking at a narrow slice of the real world, ignoring the vast amounts of pure CJK literature, historical archives, and user-generated content out there.
Is also partly the fault of voters for being so darn susceptible to recency bias. Do a lot of good at the start and then reach a lull and everyone's gonna hate. Timing can and has cost elections.
I am aware of the history, and avoided getting into it because a prolonged litigation over which populations were abused and displaced when wasn't going to get us any closer to an outcome in this conversation.

To wit: you can recall the civilian deaths and mass displacement of Palestinian Arabs in or around Jaffa and Israel in general, and I can recall the Aden Pogroms and the Farhud (and point out that the time period you're calling out was just three years --- a single Macbook generation --- from the Holocaust itself). And that rather than a "tit for tat" exercise, these facts establish an exchange of displaced populations, such as has not occurred in U.S. cities, which are not by and large peopled by the victims of Mexican and Indigenous American-led assaults elsewhere.

The point, which we arrived at downthread before you picked this scab, is that there is nothing to be done with this information. The displacement of indigenous Americans was both criminal and vital to the establishment of American cities, but we don't seriously discuss the return or "decolonization" of those cities, for obvious reasons. And my point is: the issue is no less obvious with Jaffa, which is very firmly the sovereign territory of the most powerful (and nuclear-armed) state in the Middle East.

'runarberg clarifies that they brought Jaffa up as moral leverage for demands that Israel recognize Palestinian statehood. That makes sense to me, and I push back only to the extent that I don't think additional moral leverage of this kind is needed to make that argument.

As for your argument, I'm at a loss for where you're hoping to go with it. Is the point that Israel is bad? If so: practically every state is bad, yes.

(I didn't flag your post; in fact, I wrote this response to it --- the flagged version --- and was irritated when, on hitting the "Submit" button, I had to scramble with the back button to save it. I don't think commenting on the flag button is a particularly good idea. Reposting flagged comments is normally considered abusive here. Commenters are specifically asked not to provide "explanations" for flags.)
I think it's the same with a lot of things that the American government grapples with, they only do it when there is a politically expedient reason to do it. Whether it's reducing student loans, outlawing noncompete clause, or marijuana, elected officials don't really seem to do anything helpful unless there's a clear advantage for themselves or their party.
Same on twitter. My timeline is full of this story yet it isn't in trending.
Definitely possible! Not familiar with the ansible Python API so partially guessing but the pyinfra op could yield a callback function that then calls ansible at execution time.

Alternatively you could just yield ansible cli and execute from the local machine using the @local connector.

TFA says that they're currently working on a portable (external) lung replacement[0]. I see no reason that it couldn't be installed in the chest cavity with a port for the O2 bottle connection.

Microsoft could build a safe, approved low-level way of calling async from sync, maybe with a slight performance penalty, but if they did that, everyone with old crufty legacy code would drop that in and forget about upgrading to async, and they would have to support that method in perpetuity.
Shiv is a decent solution for making a portable package. Single file that only depends on a recent system Python being installed.
No I’m not “the one” bringing it up, the experts and the people asking them and publishing their words are, and you seize on the most hard-to-substantiate claims first, and ignore the rest. Great debate technique for realtime debates, but this is HN and I can reply to focus the point.

My main concern for the next 5 years is that the Internet is going to become a dark forest where you can’t trust anything, it will be impossible to discern fake stuff, and even if it was, the botswarms will gang up to take care of any dissent.

That alone is extremely plausible and scary. Every single institution we have relies on the inefficiency of an attacker. Let alone swarms of attackers that any member of the institution can run instead of themselves, and can be subverted to bring about ANY goal, by who knows behind the scenes.
The threat model has to exclude:

- attacks on a running app that has the keys loaded, naturally

The threat model has to include at least:

- passive attacks against the DB itself, lacking access to the keys

The threat model really should also include:

- active attacks against the DB lacking access to the keys (e.g., replace blocks)

IMO ZFS does a pretty good job against these threats, for example, so ZFS is a good yardstick for measuring things like TFA.

However, the fact that a running system must have access to the keys means that at-rest data encryption does not buy one much protection against server compromise, especially when the system must be running much/most/all of the time. So you really also want to do the utmost to secure the server/application.
This is going to have very interesting implications.

The article here: https://www.getmonero.org/2024/04/27/fcmps.html compares it from having an anonymity set of 12 to 1,000,000.

What does "chain" mean in this context? I would think chain meant the entire blockchain however 1,000,000 seems like a small number to use then (unless there have only been that many monero transactions total?).

"an unelected unaccountable panel of judges"

Who do you think approved Roe v. Wade in the first place that legalized abortion. An "unelected unaccountable panel of judges."

Edit: If someone can find a federal law that legalized abortion then please, I'm all ears.
I never had a drink until I was 27, and at the time, I found it easier to keep that a secret than to talk about it.

But you're right. I'm not drinking again, and people are way less likely to question that choice now. I can't remember the last time it was questioned, actually.
Fully agree. They have this case study later in the article:

> Around a decade ago, a teenager who couldn’t be saved was admitted to a New England hospital. Like Shania Arms, he had cystic fibrosis. A previous lung transplant was failing, and his only hope was another transplant. He was put on ecmo while he waited. Two months later, doctors discovered that he had developed an incurable cancer. Now there was no way for him to leave the I.C.U. His lungs were beyond recovery, and the cancer made him ineligible for transplant. He was caught on a bridge to nowhere.

> Some members of the medical team thought that ecmo should be stopped. Transplant was no longer possible, and ecmo machines were scarce. As long as the patient was on the machine, it couldn’t be used to save someone else. It’s also expensive; according to a 2023 study, the median hospitalization charge for covid patients on ecmo was around eight hundred and seventy thousand dollars, and prolonged cases can exceed several million. These resources might be needed to help other patients, and the boy couldn’t live in the I.C.U. indefinitely.

> But others on the team disagreed. “He was texting with his friends,” Robert Truog, a pediatrician and bioethicist who was involved with and wrote about the case in The Lancet, said. He was spending time with family, and doing homework online. Because he could be awake on ecmo, he could still engage in activities that were meaningful. Situations like this represent a “profound ethical dilemma,” Raghu Seethala, an intensivist and ecmo specialist at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, told me. “The technology is ahead of the ethics,” another expert said.

The technology isn't "ahead of the ethics" as the one quote indicates. This is a simple case of some people apparently advocating for killing a living, conscious, interacting-with-the-world teenager because he wouldn't just hurry up and die, and they want to use his resources for something else.

I bet those same people would learn that over 80% of people aged 70-75 reside in a home they own, and immediately come up with a modest proposal for how to solve the housing crisis.
Even if "they're currently working on" meant "it's available now or practical in the near future" (it doesn't), that doesn't affect what I said about the immense costs involved.

The portability of the device is not the core issue here. It's a bit like arguing that you can build a quantum computer today, so therefore we'll all have one on our desktop soon.
That’s not it at all. Almost all art is just quietly ignored. If people have strong feelings about your art then that’s a huge win.
I’m not sure how “I don’t have to actually think about any of the separation” meshes with the fact that you explicitly setup multiple users and configured file and group permissions accordingly. You clearly put a lot of thought into it.

Alternatively, containers really are a no-thinking-required solution. Everything maximally isolated by default.
