> suppose i don't think ADHD has anything to do with my hearing loss or issue;

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss that as a potential factor, auditory processing issues are known to something that can be connected to ADHD in some people. (Also mentioned by a few other people in the comments.)

Couple of links that go into more details:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_auditory_attention

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_processing_disorder

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocktail_party_effect

> Additionally, i cannot watch any tv or film produced after about 2000 or so without subtitles, regardless of how fancy the "5.1 surround" center channel DSP is.

IMO that's potentially more because audio engineers for home movie releases are... ok, well, let's just say, "have different opinions on how to mix audio with dialogue than me". :) It's a very common compliant.

> I should have worn hearing protection more when i was younger

Shouldn't we all? :) Still worth trying to protect what you have now--I've used the "Etymotic" brand ear plugs mentioned elsewhere in the comments which are intended to more evenly reduce sound levels without just "muffling" everything.

> but when i can't hear music i enjoy i'll be pretty sad about that.

Indeed. Understandably.
I’d be curious to read a complimentary article from the perspective of other people in this author’s life.

In my experience, habitual users can seem perfectly fine but maintaining meaningful relationships has been difficult. Forgetfulness, unfocused thinking, constant talking about the drug or using the drug, etc. all dominate the relationship in those friendships of mine. We all have our baggage and difficulties in a relationship, but with habitual cannabis users it seems to be a prevailing pattern.
Mike Johnson is the Speaker of the House, but before the chaos that put him in that spot, who here would have known his name and/or been able to pick him out of a line up. I bet there are people in his home state that wouldn't be able to do that too. Even if they are a "senior" member, which I'm only familiar with being used to reference senators, I know that I don't know every single representative from my state. There's too many of them, and the ones I do know that aren't my rep are probably because of some asshattery they were in the news from doing. It's not like senators where there's only two of them.
Looks like they have samples on this page: https://cartesia.ai/sonic

What else do most people, outside of tech, use computers for? There are web apps for basically everything now. Chromebooks have replaced 'real' computers in most schools and I'm really surprised that they haven't in most Offices. A lot of the windows PCs in offices end up being used as dumb terminals to run citrix or access web apps anyway.

Ask HN: What's Your Stack? Tales of Triumph and Pains
Hey,

I am just curious on how the state of current data science/analytics workflows in many different companies is. I know every business person just thinks we have magic table were we get to do SELECT * FROM magic_table and get the desired results. Everything is aligned with previous reports, everyone understands the charts and we keep goging. But I would like you to take a moment to step away from the lines of code and dashboards to share our views on here.

I wonder about data stacks, meaning

The Stack Showdown:

Storage Solutions: Are you team Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure) or do you swear by on-premise data warehouses?
Data querying & ETL tools: using DataGrip, DBeaver, directly from python et al. using connectors, or maybe Airflow, Talend...?
Processing Units: do you crunch numbers in local or have dedicated/per process servers?
Visualization: How do you paint your data pictures? Tableau, Power BI, or something more exotic like PowerPoint updated manually?
The Requirement Riddle: Besides tech, how do you approach a shiny new requirement or feature request? Do you have a battle-tested workflow, or is it more of a creative chaos situation?
The Pain Points Parade: Let’s hear about those pesky pain points that drive you up the wall. Is it the ever-changing schema, non-updated tables, the elusive data quality, no one looking for your output despite being urgent for the last 2 days... or perhaps the dreaded “It worked on my machine” curse?

*If Genie just gave you one wish, *what would you ask for (data workflow related ofc)?

reuse in implementations is common, and most protocols need to handle an asynchronous "offline" mode which means a sliding window of valid counters, and a thread to pull. the difference between a single use key and a limited use key is significant and has been known to get fudged somewhere between approved spec and implementation.

Sure don't reuse the IV and make sure it can't be easily derived or guessed, but if I'm looking for problems in an implementation, my point was that counter usage is one of the low-entropy threads to pull.
A prompt is just a specification for an output. Code is just what we call a sufficiently detailed specification.

>The review concluded that the prior board's decision was not based on concerns regarding product safety or security, the pace of development, OpenAI's finances, or its statements to investors, customers, or business partners."

Well yea, lawyer speak where they admit the old board decision was correct because they didn't list it as a concern.

Carpet the ceiling and the walls. Super cheap, super effective.

Ideally carpet the floor too - and if you use carpet tiles then when a customer spills something uncleanable on a tile it's a 5 minute non-expert job to pull up a tile and put in a new one.
Or, more precisely, reserves the right to do so in a future version. rustc does not currently do this. There are some compiler flags to randomize the struct layout just to make sure that you’re not implicitly depending on the order.

Sorry for the offense. I can see how it might be interpreted that way. It wasn't my intent to joke, but actually to care.

The article talked about willingly being calm, and caring less, and I honestly don't know whether that would extend to being more prone to the (not-uncommon) practice of removing batteries from an alarm, and then neglecting to put them back in. I've also frequently heard of falling asleep while smoking as being a cause of house fires.

FWIW, some of my work has involved safety. And some of my other work has involved human factors engineering, and more generally looking at how people behave in reality, and designing from there. No disrespect intended to people. If you read my comment in that light, does it seem less offensive than before?

I'll be more sensitive. Including being aware that I'm not familiar with marijuana, and bound to make incorrect guesses/assumptions, which I now realize could be frustrating to people. And also now being aware that some people might be accustomed to snarky comments around the topic of marijuana, and be on guard against that.
For a video recording app, it's an interesting marketing decision that there's only one video on the page. And at least on my computer, it doesn't play, I only hear the audio.

These folks have a stellar reputation, and I'll be buying this app on that (and the I-was-expecting-more-digits price) alone, but I would have enjoyed seeing some kind of short film "shot on Kino". If only to see some professional work.
Thank you for the name of this disorder and link! I've also had this my whole life, and I knew it was a thing that wasn't terribly rare (based on reading comments from others in the past, here on HN and elsewhere), but I think this is the first time I've seen a name for this condition.

The Wikipedia page seems to really describe my condition, except for the potential overlap with ADHD. For example, the "difficulty following oral instructions". I can read something and retain it forever, but if someone speaks to me, it will often go in one ear and out the other.

I sometimes wonder if this could be a result of being a very introverted child who started reading at around 3 or 4 years old. (Because reading is so awesome, why bother listening to people -- and improving your auditory neurology -- after that?)

I think I've probably just adapted to the condition. It doesn't seem like any sort of problem or disability. But I suspect others around me find it much more annoying than I do. ;)
Complete sidenote but I'm an accidental fan of Sandwich (video production company) and the promo video in this did not disappoint.
It's definitely legal (and not uncommon) in the US, but you can at least trace it up to a human at some point. Those humans, at least in theory, can be held accountable, even if it's their shell company's shell company that broke the law.

The new FinCEN BOI reporting requirement seems to be an attempt to make that easier. I don't see them accepting URLs as company officers any time soon.

OTOH, there are also towns with dogs and cats as mayors, but I suspect being elected makes the difference there.

I guess the only way to know for sure is to try, but I can't see the tax people accepting "my dog is the CEO and ate the taxes and ChatGPT was our treasurer, so collect from them", for example.

But I've been surprised before.

I absolutely love this. This will be amazing to trigger unexpected behavior in CoreDNS when working with dnsmasq pods that are resolved via wireguard.

> [...] ADHD people who will hear everything you're saying, ask "What?," and then a second later I've finished processing the audio in my head and am ready to continue the conversation.

You know, until you mentioned it, I'd never thought that that experience might have an ADHD-related component to it. Interesting.

Copyright is hideously broken, but in theory: the owners only own it because they compensate the authors, which they only do out of an expectation of future profit (on average).

That theory's a fantasy, because extractive systems involving gatekeepers get established, but in this specific case, enforcing copyright would make things fairer for authors. There's no extractive copyright-taking gatekeeper for websites: scrapers don't get copyright, so can't re-license the material they've scraped (unless it's permissively-licensed or something).

From a "marketing strategy" point of view, I wonder what the thinking is in investing in this stuff so heavily when Python seems to be kind of the go-to? Will they be able to create a "good enough" environment to do that kind of work with Elixir? Is it just someone or a company scratching their own itch?

This is a genuine question - I don't know much about "AI stuff", but do know something about the economics of programming languages and I'm "intellectually curious" about what is driving this and what the goals are, rather than critical of Elixir. I love working with BEAM and miss it.

I think Astro is great for building small mostly (or entirely) static sites. It doesn't assume that you're building a blog, but it's plenty flexible enough to support it.

This said, blogs feel like a nice sweet spot for Astro. The current version of my blog came together without much fuss. (I've studiously avoided using Astro DB, or using Astro to build an API backend, etc. and so can't comment on them.)

Overall I've found Astro to be highly reliable. I identified one unexpected behavior (I think a bug, related to when CSS is rendered) while building my blog and was able to work around it but, other than that, Astro behaved exactly as documented.

There were days I wished that astro components didn't exist and, instead, I could just use the client:* attributes in (say) my Preact components. That said, astro components are well thought out and the tooling in vscode is solid.

There is no financing or legislation behind it.

It sounds a bit like the administration is making phone calls and
requesting companies to spend big.

If the administration can make
the states spend big that would be a key step.
However, that would require financing being legislated at the state level.

One intersting bit is the bit of propaganda here:

""
The three-member Federal Energy Regulatory Commission recently voted to approve a new rule that will bring major reforms to the nation’s aging electrical grid. It will compel utilities and grid operators to proactively plan to build regional electrical transmission and is a step toward solving the problem of vast amounts of clean energy being stuck in a backlog, unable to get on a grid too small to handle it.
""

That is truly amazing what awesome work they have done and so easily.

What is missing appears to be a link to this marvel of achievement.
I’m glad the page does a call out to the Invisible CG series.

> The nefarious part is that Windows enables Hyper-V even if you don't actually use Hyper-V VMs and never will.

It does not actually enable it by default but there are many settings or apps that can cause it to become enabled. Virtualization-based-security, WSL, container tools, etc. Providing a hypervisor and related functionality is part of what a modern OS kernel should do! It's not nefarious!

A bunch was deficit spending straight into corporate profits, so, inflationary hand-outs to the rich (and a bit to 401ks probably). Also, though far from a majority of the spending, we did ship whole pallets of cash and those just kinda vanished to wherever but I’m pretty sure if they made it back state-side it was a similar deal, deficit spending going more or less directly to someone already rich in return for very little. A quick google yeah about $12B of cash with awful accounting, and that’s just Iraq, same thing happened in Afghanistan.

I don't think they're confused; I think they're worried about a robust RISC-V ecosystem weakening the ability of the US and its allies to influence the availability of processor technology by regulating licensing deals with the architecture "owners" like Intel, IBM, and ARM. From that perspective, the fact that open-source implementations are even allowed represents a potential threat (although I assume it's not long before ARMv7 runs out of essential patents, if it hasn't already).

The problem is that, based on personal observation, many, many current managers are actively bad at helping groups of people work together effectively. As in, I have personally known managers (not my own; this is as a third party, and I've been genuinely lucky in my managers over the years) whose teams would be better off with them simply removed from the picture and nothing else changed, they are that detrimental to getting work done.

Even though you've tried to limit yourself to basically 3 apps by different vendors (what a shallow view of the app world), and even though you've included some awful browsers that don't even allow users to rebind default(!) keybinds (are you going to argue now that this is also good and just because I WANT to change keybindings, it's not a good idea and your imaginary world disagrees?), and the platform so bad at keybinding support that it requires a whole new pseudo-comprehensive keyboard handling protocol, you've still managed to step on a huge ignorance landmine - Chrome, on Windows, supports differentiating left vs right modifiers via a browser extension!!!

There are others, but let that sink in - your #1 example fails you...

I think this points to a slightly deeper issue sitting just below "consumer choice", which is "tight coupling."

It sounds like GM has made a tighter-coupling between their vehicle and one particular brand of smartphone, and that's suggestive that other tight-couplings might exist elsewhere the design. The more tightly-coupled parts (to particular brands, form-factors, and proprietary connectors) the harder/more-expensive it will be to keep the overall car-system working over a decade or two as some of its hard-dependencies stop getting built.

So a lack of smartphone choice isn't just annoying, it also suggests something about the designers not planning for long-term maintenance.
