It's a language known for having a great runtime and tooling but subpar language semantics. Makes sense to me, at least. Most of the benefits of go with fewer drawbacks.
I've bought/set up at least ten of these cheap mini PCs (~$200) over the years and at least half of them had their built-in WiFi just stop working after some time. Something to be aware of if you're not going to be using it wired. Can always swap over to USB WiFi if it stops working anyway.

I've never this problem with a Raspberry Pi (have a RPi 2 running on WiFi since it came out!) but haven't bought as many of them.
it's literally the 2nd sentence of README: "It's fully compatible with existing Go packages."

It's a nice way to bootstrap ecosystem IMHO. No one wants to use a brand-new language without library support for common tasks.
Note that this only holds true for fairly recent MySQL (MySQL 8.x, not including the oldest 8.0.x releases). 5.7 and older, and by extension MariaDB, instead models pretty much everything as a large fixed-function recursive function that calls itself for each new table in the join, plus some function pointers for handling of GROUP BY and such.

TBH, when it comes to query execution (A JOIN B JOIN C GROUP BY …), I think the difference between SQLite's bytecode and a tree of iterators (the classical Volcano executor) is fairly small in practice; they are quite interchangeable in terms of what they can do, and similar when it comes to performance. The difference between bytecode and tree structure is much larger when it comes to evaluation of individual expressions (a + b * cos(c)), especially since that involves much more of a type system; that is more obviously in the “bytecode is the way to go” camp to me.
I found myself wondering whether this was about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89mile_Littr%C3%A9.
I think some people might just not know what a URL is or how it works. Browsers keep trying to downplay URLs and hide them (or parts of them), and I guess people are slowly forgetting they represent an "address" to a web page. I see this sometimes with younger people who didn't grow up when the web was emerging and everyone simply knew a URL was how you got to a web site. I've on more than one occasion had people send me a screenshot of a web page instead of just sending the URL. To me (late 40s) this seems bonkers, but to them maybe it's just how they do it.
It's pretty likely that the payment stuff will get ironed out/consolidated, at that point it looks a lot like a low margin business with significant infrastructure cost. Especially with the industry moving to the Tesla charging interface.
That is very kind, thanks so much :)

Hmm... That's a reasonable conclusion. You could be right.

I'll be a bit more humble and admit that there's a lot I don't know, so for me, the jury is out.

Things may implode at Tesla, or maybe the company will grow 10x. I wouldn't be surprised either way!
Making Redis into a high-durability database
As an example, 80% of third-party content I receive on Facebook is soft Russian propoganda:

Some examples:

* general auto blog which writes about how 80% of details of some cars are now Russian made

* some general English language construction blog tells about how cool is Russian made Crimean bridge

* some English language aviation page showing how advanced some Soviet planes are

* some Italian page showing how dirty is metro in Italy but how clean it is in Saint Petersburg

* some randome culture page shows cool Russian brutalist architecture

There is so much content like this trying to mascerade as non-political but with clear agenda.

There are no methods to report such pages to Facebook moderation

This looks great! I'm curious what your roadmap looks like too!

There are so many great ways to understand our fertility, not just our periods, by tracking things like cervical mucus and basal body temperature, which can not only help us get more reliable predictions about when bleeding will start (almost always the same number of days after ovulation, though the days between the start of bleeding and ovulation can vary a lot), but also have better data for health practitioners to sort out how our hormonal health is!

It's not necessarily easy to find practitioners who know how to interpret the data, but they're out there, and having a good way to collect it and share it with them is a key part of the process!

It is pretty much game over for America now. Huawei has 2nm chip and will mass produce next year Q1. China EVs already so far ahead that Tesla had to mass layoff and price drop. Chinese drones are so numerous, even American Naval Admiral scared to engage Chinese. There are simply no simulation path of American stayimg ahead in next 100 years. Unlike Japanese, Chinese wont do Japanese kowtow. The best way forward is American get their budget in order. Once Chinese achieve full domestic consumption game over for America. Now Chinese has wodld biggest auto market 30m, bigger than USA and EU combined. Imagine that happen to planes, everyday consumptions. China also massive purchasing and delivering physical gold to Shanghai. Therr is no way USD and American economy able to sustain itself when Chinese outcompete, outspy, out militarise America. If you look at Chinese space station vs American ISS, you will know who will become star trek first. Even Chinese desert turning green will likely trigger dust bowl in America in the next 30 years. Game over America.
Transpiler is a kind of compiler
My code may have been around somewhere. I suspect I'd done gc, in which case it wasn't. But my git skills then were certainly not as good as they are now. (I'd only recently switched from svn at that point.)

I agree that the workflow was a mess in multiple ways. A lot of which were organizational decisions that I was in no position to influence.

Your favorite PR strategy is fine if you're doing it locally. However when it is done on master, you're going to have to get master again by force. Because changed history creates conflicts. Which means that you're going to have to hope that everyone only did it your way, and no idiot created conflicts in some other stupid way that you'll suffer for later.

I'd prefer to merge to head early. Merge to head often. Merge from head often. Don't have long-running shared branches. This does take some other forms of discipline though.
"Hi, are you free?" seems just as good to me, and mostly equivalent (without reference to a call).
Well, it's being paid. Maybe it's not being used well, but it's being paid.
You are right. My earlier claim is incorrect. It is not a certainty that the optimal price doesn't change when costs rise. It really depends on demand elasticity.

My reasoning was this: If Apple can get away with a higher price without demand dropping off, why would they not charge this higher price in the first place?

But the idea is flawed. Apple could ultimately make more money selling fewer more expensive devices at higher margins than selling more devices at lower margins. So you're absolutely right.

Of course they could also make less profit by protecting their margins. We don't know.
Thanks, JustWatch is indeed very useful!

I'm not in the US so Tubi doesn't work for me. Apparently none of the Cosmos series (original or the two sequels) is available in my country. Not even to buy.

Oh well, to the Bay it is.
I am implying that we do not know. What if anxiety is less likely in the Netherlands, but depression is double that of the us?

Why are the differences between general population and youngsters? What are the trends?

I simply do not have enough information. But if you compare the USA with probably the most unsupervised and happiest children on the planet, it does not seem like a large difference. What if the world average was 16%? Then you could argue that two extremes only cause a relatively minor change
I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm genuinely curious: what is it about the go runtime and tooling that makes them great?

Show HN: I made a 10x cheaper alternative to SiteGPT
Hello HN! I'm a founder who sold my previous startup to a YC company. Being fedup with AI chatbot tools that cap on number of chats/conversations, I made a tool that let's you build chatbots that have unlimited conversations ability, powered by your own OpenAI API Key. I believe this is the only SaaS that allows chats even on the base plan, do checkout - would love the community's feedback.
I have a couple servers with this exact CPU that I run for a mixture of practical and sentimental reasons. I bought them off eBay and only after purchase discovered they were a piece of history. They have a second life testing GPU libraries for Debian from a rack in my basement.

For privacy reasons, I won't say who originally owned the servers, but they had a cool custom paint job and were labelled YETI1 and YETI2. If the original owner is on HN, perhaps they will recognize the machines and provide more information.

I always wondered how the following setup does not prove that NP != P so please chime in.

Finding the correct N-bit long (binary) number (that someone is thinking of, they only reply yes or no to a guess). Verifying if the number is correct can be done in Polynomial time yet finding the correct number can only be achieved by trying (brute force) all the 2^N possibilities?
I think there's one of two ways to make roadways safer:

1. Add these safety feature mandates that increase the price of vehicles
2. Move towards banning larger and larger vehicles and create limits on height and clearance for non-commercial vehicles.

The latter doesn't seem politically popular, so the former is the only choice.
yes, but now they can't sell you a $100 chassis with mobo for $500

subpar semantics?
> Why is Tesla struggling?

Every other manufacturer already has the customers, the employees, the manufacturing, supply chains, and they know the market better. Tesla is now a decade in to their Gen 1 and haven’t shipped anything because of their distracting engineering goals… they need to focus on the customers.
This is my problem. I am happy to pay more for a product that will be durable, reliable and last longer. But finding this (if it exists) is impossible. You try to look at old companies with strong reputations but across the board they have switched to selling low quality shit. You see comments like "don't buy any X from Y manufactured after 2010".

It seems really stupid to me. These established companies have made their products indistinguishable from no-name overseas brands but can't match the price. They may temporarily cash their good name for profit but what are they going to do when consumers catch on.

Pair this with the difficulty of finding honest reviews these days and it is impossible to find new quality brands. Not to mention that half of reviewers pick up an object and say "it's heavy so it must be well-made".

So? Plenty of things that are allowed are not okay. Legality does not equal ethics or good behaviour.
What is the graph supposed to show? Surely Japan doesn't have a higher GDP than the whole of the EU, and the legend suggests that it's supposed to show GDP rather than GDP growth rate. I don't think it makes sense if it's GDP per capita, either. Very odd.
Is there a good overview of these pieces and what they're responsible for and how they fit together?

I had a quick skim of the docs on systemd.io and there are quite a few documents but they don't seem particularly organized and I couldn't see a good architecture overview.
“transpiler”, “compiler”, either terminology is valid:

Because that's not the framework where N and NP applies. There is no notion of black boxes outside of the algorithm.
The comment you are replying to likely meant Britain, not England.

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

USAmericans tend to say "England" interchangably with "United Kingdom", "Great Britain", and "The British Isles". Possibly more.
My comment was more of an agreement, I do think that good points can come from various sides, not only "certified by the upper levels of government".

Starship is in testing, which was chosen to be done with test flights. Those test flights are of course something very different than assumed regular launches later on, after the system would be complete in design, development and testing. Right now Starship isn't even planned to immediately come back to Mechazilla. Starship is obviously incomplete now, but that doesn't mean it can't be completed and successfully used.

Comparing to that the existing plans and results with NASA's Artemis parts are more bleak. Expensive, slow, underperforming - and even dangerous. Smarter Every Day's video points to gaping problems, and he's even explaining why he chose to talk about it - there and then. It shouldn't matter much that he's an engineer - though he couldn't perhaps to talk about it without enough understanding. In his case, it was more important to articulate important points aloud.
You're always welcome to write an alternative if you don't think systemd's direction is correct. Frankly with the number of detractors you could likely form a much larger team to "do it properly" instead!

Love or hate Pottering and his team, they're at least writing code instead of postulating on internet forums. systemd's adoption and popularity among many is proof of that

> Starship had a close to orbital velocity launch in March

It had orbital velocity, but it wasn't on an orbital trajectory. At least based on the numbers provided and Scott Manley's description of events.

I think the NASA award for pumping tonnes of oxidizer required them to be at or above orbital velocity.
Not setuid generically, but `sudo` itself has a bunch of pam support/dependency.
The above post looks like carefully constructed satire, mostly there to make fun of people who hero-worship Elon Musk into thinking that Elon Musk personally handled all tasks at Tesla like Tony Stark / Ironman.
Thanks, I'd always thought targeted transformations -> transpiler, but it makes sense it's really a subset of general compiler functionality, sans binary output.
This is a terrible take.

It's like one of those people who buys a massive over priced knife block with 48 knives in it that they never use.

Most go devs have lived through bloated java/php/python/ruby/js projects that become a pile of dependencies.

Go is to coding what brutalism is to architecture. Simple, functional, efficient. Dont build a massive dependency chain, dont build magic, repeating yourself is OK. Be an adult and deal with your errors (it's a feature)... That minimalist no bullshit language semantics that force you not to be lazy is a feature not a bug.
Any kind of provisioning doesn't seem too far a step though. It is just another "operation" with its own state management logic.
> how do you handle models that are bigger than 16GB on that

I don't, my setup won't compare in term of memory affected to the GPU part. I actually don't know what the best workaround would be.

My priorities were portability, versatility and VR capacities above all, so yes it wont hold 40G in GPU RAM.
> it requires a ton of systemd infra to use

I understand your frustration, but is it really fair to criticize a systemd feature for requiring systemd itself?
Yeah, ads are good. They tell me about new things I might want to buy that might make my life better. Why wouldn't I want to see them?
Ugh, not the speed itself (you can have up to 30MB/s, which is more than enough), but the ability to serve multiple requests simultaneously, ie Queue Depth. Most of the time you xan assume QD for them is 2 and you would't miss at all.
The trickier problem.

Especially since batteries don't (typically) just end up damaged but rather degrade over time. One day the battery can hold 96% of it's original capacity, the next 90%. It's a natural and uneven process for batteries.
`As with Simula leading to OOP, this encounter finally hit me with what the destiny of personal computing really was going to be. Not a personal dynamic vehicle, as in Engelbart's metaphor opposed to the IBM "railroads", but something much more profound: a personal dynamic medium. With a vehicle one could wait until high school and give "drivers ed", but if it was a medium, it had to extend into the world of childhood.`

Less power usage also which is important for embedded applications. 4gb is still a lot of RAM!
The word "transpiler" propagates the misunderstanding that there is something special about a compiler that emits machine code, that requires some special "compiler" techniques for special "compiler" purposes that are not necessary for "transpiler" purposes because "transpiling" requires a completely different set of techniques.

There aren't any such techniques. If one were to create an academic discipline to study "transpilers" and one to study "compilers", all you'd end up with is an identical bunch of techniques and analyses with different names on them. (A thing that sometimes happens when diverse disciplines study what turns out to be the same thing; see machine learning versus statistics for a well-known example.)

Even "compiling" to machine code isn't special anymore, because CPUs don't actually execute assembly anymore. They themselves compile assembly into internal micro-ops, which is what they actually execute. So compilers don't even compile "machine language" anymore; it's just another target. This also dodges "is it a 'compiler' or a 'transpiler' if it targets WASM?", which is good, because there is no value in that question on any level.
Ironically enough, Lennart now apparently works for Microsoft.

(though to be clear, I like systemd and I think Lennart is a very good engineer).

Vastaamo hack: Therapy notes hacker jailed for blackmail
As a counterpoint, we tried to get a tesla roof. Their repeated broken promises meant that we went with competitors (you can only delay installing a roof for so long...), and we simply don't trust Tesla to do anything at this point.

Most people I know are buying LG (small system) or Enphase (large system) batteries instead, or going with other competitors (Anker announced something that looks pretty sweet).

Also, Powerwalls are notoriously unreliable compared to those other brands; our local Tesla installer said they refuse to install them except when they are acting as a Tesla subcontractor, and pushed us to enphase or generac.

For semis, they took deposits then didn't deliver, so marquee customers are complaining publicly and buying semis from competitors.

For solar roofs, we talked to their competitors, and they were all backlogged because they were absorbing cancelled tesla contracts.

Tesla is great at marketing and making the sale, but then letting their competitors close out the deal.

It feels to me that we will not go far in this discussion tbh.

For me the growth means a mix of things like being more productive, increasing life standards etc but we have great life standars.

Japan has a high living standard too and no to negative growth.

Either there is some magic economic model you will not be able to explain to me in this format (wall of text / necessary university degree/ just too much) or I will not change my opinion on this rat race thing.

Your point of other countries outbidding us on resources is that really the main argument for necessary economy growth?

At least for software engineering that's not true.

Farming probably hasn't changed that much in the last 20 years either.

The growth discussion is for me as shitty as all those news about share prices. Random stocks get mentioned in the news for random reasons while apparently the best way to invest in shares is to not bother with daily trends at all.
