Can we do this without messing up our hair and makeup? What is the benefit over a traditionally produced movie? Why do I want this experience, what makes it superior? Has the general public been demanding that their content work this way, that the biggest pain point with traditional content is the inability to generate it on the fly?

The status quo is that I can pay something like $10 a month to get access to hundreds of critically-acclaimed shows crafted be extremely skilled specialists that I can watch on my $300 55” 4K TV screen. The average American spends about 5 hours watching content (TV and digital) per day.

So let’s take the Vision Pro at $3500. We’re going to make the battery life 5x longer, we will also remove any straps or pieces of the device that touch your face since that messes up hair and makeup, so we can say now it’s a pair of glasses. And we’re going to reduce the cost from $3500 to $300 to match the price of a 55” TV from Costco. We will also add on-device AI processing so that this product can deliver on your vision. Which technology advancements in the next 10-20 years are going to make something like that remotely possible?

In the 15 years that we’ve had modern smartphones on the market when have they ever dropped in price by 10x or gained battery life by 5x? I can’t seem to buy a new iPhone for $60 that gets a week of battery life.

These sci-fi future visions are hilarious in how shortsighted they are, like when The Jetsons “predicted” living in the sky with flying cars. Of course the problem is that doing something like that has no benefits and a laundry list of drawbacks and impracticalities.

Can confirm, it's a great way to get started with radio stuff. Since I live in Europe, I did this with the German DCF77 signal. The frequency is low enough that you can do direct sampling with a 192ksps sound card or with an RP2040.

A nice thing about DCF77 is that once you manage to receive the amplitude modulated signal, you can move onto decoding the slightly more advanced spread-spectrum phase modulated signal, which carries (almost) the same data.

You can start by buying a time signal receiver module, and once you confirm that the module can receive the signal, cut off the ferrite antenna and use it with your own receiver.

Here's a nice article on which I based my own project:
https://hal.science/hal-02182845/

Using the same setup (ferrite stick -> discrete transistor amplifier -> RP2040) I also managed to receive the polish AM station at 225kHz.

"VC winter" isn't what it seems. The money is going into something else. VCs reduced late stage funding, which was killing unicorns, but they increased early stage funding. For a while, angels stopped investing in early stage to put it into crypto/NFT. Covid had people pulling their money out of travel tech and putting it into gold. Lately there was speculation that bitcoin halving would increase prices again, and so the prices went up long before the halving.

People say there's more AI investment, but AI has always been heavily overinvested since 2015. Even back then, fresh PhDs could expect million dollar annual TC. People who believed AI would eat the world have been buying Google, Meta, Tesla stocks for years because those were the closest. Those stocks aren't rising much. Only recently did retail investors realize that maybe NVIDIA would be profiting from the AI boom as well.

You have to take into account all the delays. Meta didn't drop in stock because they were planning for the Metaverse, it dropped because they admitted that Facebook was no longer their core business. Everyone knew FB was dead for a while, the name change was a catalyst. The metaverse isn't terrible business though - Roblox is bigger than many banks.

Show HN: I built a platform to share your affiliate program
Hey HN,

I am Francesco and I am so proud to finally be launching Indie Affiliates, a platform to share your affiliate program in minutes.

I built it because when I created my first affiliate program, I was super pumped about it but then I realized "How are marketers going to know that I created an affiliate program?"

So I started researching on Google but all the directories I could find to submit an affiliate program where:

A. Asking for $199/year or more
B. Were not the right "environment" for my SaaS

Which lead me to create Indie Affiliates, a platform where Indie Hackers (and startuppers in general) can easily submit their affiliate marketing program.
So from then on you will need to have TWO accounts? Or what are you supposed to do, considering most games are played using Steam?
Can you show some real sites that were mounting such attacks using libraries?
This reads as somewhat one sided to me, as the expected thing is for the subsidies to be reduced over time.

It feels like journalism often gets two scare stories out of renewables or clean energy subsidies, one when they are introduced and another when they are phased out.

The recent reporting around Chinese EV regularly tries to catastrophise the reduction in subsidies which were only ever intended to kick start the market.

Of course some subsidies are cut too early or too fast for political reasons, some like carbon fees and internalising pollution costs should probably rise over time.

But if they're not interested in that level of conversation then the story is effectively just noise.
That’s pretty much what you have on Facebook. It’s also the reason that that platform is completely uninteresting, intellectually. What you get is famous people capitalizing on their fame / follower count, and the rest of us having no chance.

>Say you're a country at war like Ukraine - have the "emergency bit" on nationwide during Russian air raids so that receivers can listen for area-specific signals and blare horns if affected.

You are missing the point. Nobody thinks Americans mean laws don't exist. But they do mean they are free to do mostly whatever they want. And when reports come out that they aren't even allowed to have grass the size they want in their own front yard the irony of that is super funny. There, now I've dissected the frog for you and ruined the joke for myself.
There exists a transition period where GenAI isn’t good enough to produce quality content people want to pay for. But it might help studios create content that people are willing to pay for in a more efficient way.

So yes, in the future, creating 2D movies/shows will be trivial.
Nice work.

This is a demo on LiveCodes:

One thing you forgot to mention is that in contrast to an FM receiver, or even more a digital one, AM receivers are incredibly easy to build even with very basic "household items", which I believe is at least part of the motivation to provide emergency services and similar broadcasts over AM.
What law?, if there is a law you have to follow it, it being a law by definition forces you to follow it. Whether anything is done to those that do not follow it is another question. The issue is that there is absolutely no legal reason to ban Russians from buying games.

This seems like an arbitrary 'moral' choice, an honestly after the bs we've seen from Israel and the U.S, they have no moral high ground to stand on and criticize the Russians. Losing all your games is a massive issue, they are effectively holding your games hostage in an effort to exert politically motivated influence.
They truly hate their own game. It's been a while since I've witnessed such a fumble
"Interactive storytelling" has been mainstream for the last few decades already. We call it video games.
Good idea. Maybe making the replacements short, space-separated words would have helped even more, by countering any "helpful corrections" the OCR might have been making based on English words (e.g., it would not surprise me if some OCR software would "correct" "B0B" to "BOB").
It does it pretty good, and for a lot of use cases having errors is tolerable
Another canary is finance. Finance is like blood, it distributes resources from one place to another. You don't want it too fast or too slow.

When finance starts to lay off lots of people people, it's because people are spending less. When people are spending less, it causes recessions.

A very strong metric to watch is interest rates. Most recessions hit when interest rates are 0%. Rates are lowered to encourage growth, but when they're at 0%, the lever is stuck.

> I do remember that there are also read operations where you ask for 200 bytes and you can get 100 back.

Those are read operations where you say you have 200 bytes to store the result, rather than where you ask for exactly 200 bytes. But yes, they certainly exist, the ones that ask for exact numbers of bytes are typically built on repeated calls to the ones that can return less.

> Otoh, if the socket is closed you indeed get a socket closed exception. But that is because the docker was closed while reading.

I think this depends on how it closed, sometimes you just get EOF, which is an error state but not an exception (unless your language is clinically insane like Python). Obviously if it's interrupted in such a way that there would probably have been more data but you can no longer get it, that's a different error than EOF (and some languages use exceptional control flow to report mere errors, it is just that Rust does not do this).

> What is the rust behaviour in this case?

Read calls can return less data than you asked for. If they return no data, that is a successful EOS. They can also report I/O errors as distinct from a successful result.

There is an I/O error for "unexpected EOF", where you require more data than is present, and the fact that it's not present is an error. I believe `read_exact` uses this if anything happens before it has entirely filled the buffer, including completely normal connection closure.
I feel like this new wave of RTO is the same like any other org change disliked by the lower ranks.

Unless people are caught red-handed fabricating those, how can you know it's fake? You think that cross-referencing or having "reliable sources" like Wikipedia will help you know what's going on on the other side of world (e.g Ukraine/Russia)? It's probable even the people in the involved countries don't truly know what's going on.

The only facts are what I can perceive with my own senses and what comes directly from people I know enough to have a judgment I consider reliable on their trustworthiness.

Fact is that entities using the expression fake news are often not better than the ones they accuse.

Still very hard to do, also he is right about the blog he mentioned.
If you follow people of certain hobbies - for example, retro computing - then it's a great way to discover others sharing the same interest. You can check their timeline to see if that's someone you want to follow or just choose not to. And if you really dislike someone, you can just block them. I think that retweets/boosts become a really good discovery mechanism here.

If your hobby is e.g., NFL Football, then yeah, the signal/noise ratio makes retweets a terrible thing that just clutters your feed.
A coworker of mine dislikes it as it bundles everything into a single binary. For example, to have ACME DNS-01 challenges for certificate issuance working, I need to compile in a Google DNS-specific plugin.

But then it... just works. Try the same with most other web servers/proxies and you're in for a world of pain. Having this much functionality bundled into a single binary is as much a curse as it is a blessing.

Well then I apologize for my rather pointed comment as I didn't read yours and the way it was intended.

I would consider myself a car enthusiast or maybe an overall vehicle enthusiast. I don't have any obnoxiously fast cars now but did in the recent past. It was a Corvette with extensive modifications but the one thing I did keep was the factory cat-back mufflers and exhaust. Regardless it was still quite loud when you wanted to drive it fast almost as if it had no mufflers on it at all. That being said I always drove it quite moderately through towns and residential areas where the noise level was reasonable.

I currently have three motorcycles two of which are sport bikes. There is no modern sport bike where modifying the exhaust system provides you any performance gains for the street. Also no street legal bike that is used on the track will gain any performance by modifying the exhaust. You need a full dedicated track bike for that and a world-class rider to extract the benefits.

I agree with the overall sentiment that people who modify their exhaust systems, using the excuse of performance gains, is complete nonsense. The reason they do it is because they're obnoxious a-holes and that's the only reason. You can tell this because the Harley people are obnoxious a-holes.

I do know many people who do have modified cars and bikes that are obnoxiously loud and they never once receive a ticket on it. There is a general lack of police enforcement around this kind of stuff even with community complaints it is often ignored by the police because it's simply not worth their time. I'm not sure why it's not worth their time but it's ignored by the police. I think in general if people started receiving tickets on a regular basis the average vehicle enthusiast would make their vehicle less loud.

In this specific case it doesn't work because these aren't considered moving violations. So there's no points against his license and the ticket is insignificant compared to the income from the viewership. Most vehicle enthusiasts don't have a viewership that is making it financially viable to continue to pay tickets. As a larger thing there is a lot of obnoxious idiots that have a viewership that causes them to get paid for socially obnoxious things that bother the community. that's really the root behavior that needs corrected here is getting people to have a higher sense of themselves to not reward the obnoxious fools with a viewership and money for being obnoxious fools.
