Nice, a concept similar to advertising alcohol/tobaco in certain countries!
They really were at the center of simulation. They had so many offerings that many people have never even heard of, like Sim Earth. I ran into it at a point in my life when I was playing with a lot of ideas about sustainability and waste, and it ended up being very influential in how I think about the world. It was almost a throw away game, there just wasn't much to do, but setting up initial conditions and watching them play out was fascinating to me. It taught me a lot about critical mass, and resource utilization rates.

As a side note, Oxygen Not Included feels like a master's class in sustainability, especially if you don't over abuse some of the game's broken mechanics.

nice work! looks like you're using shipfast too :)
The problem is not their ranking but that by default SafeSearch is off on Mojeek. This is a questionable choice. Click the cog, enable SafeSearch and repeat the query. The deepfake porn is gone.

I just tried Mojeek too, and found the results to be reasonable on a selection of programming related queries. I didn't know Mojeek existed, but the design is clean and the results are fast. Ranking isn't as precise as Google but that's OK, the right result is usually still in the top results. The summarize feature worked well and was also very fast. The news is clean, hopefully more trustworthy than Google News. I love the idea of their Substack search, but they should consider unlaunching it and trying again. Although the rendering of the results is a bit off (the date runs into the URL) the bigger issue is that there doesn't seem to be any way to rank by date, and old blog posts are often near the top. That's probably not what's wanted for a blog search.

Honestly I don't know why this site isn't better known, if it's genuinely an independent index which it seems to be. It feels like Google in the early days. I'll definitely try it out and see how viable its ranking is.

It's really sad (but absolutely 100% predictable) to hear that self-proclaimed "Europeans" refuse to mention it. To such people "Europe" is not and never has been about regional alliances or collaboration. It is and was always a social ideology of control. The UK rejected that system and is thus in their minds no longer "European", despite that it's still there and not going anywhere.
Ukraine alone is too weak by any measure, but the way Biden acted before the war was escalatory. For example, he announced that "there will be no American boots on the ground" instead of leaving it at least ambigious. This lowered the risk for Russians who could be sure that US forces would not get directly involved. It was like an open invitation to attack Ukraine.

Had he used all available means to show that the US would get involved (eg paradropping 82nd Airborne into Hostomel for exercises with Ukrainians), the war could've been averted.

Ukraine is an excellent case study of how Russians act. They have used every "de-escalatory window" carved out for them to climb deeper into Ukraine instead of getting out. Refusals and delays in supporting Ukraine with tanks, artillery, air defense and other equipment have only escalated the war. Every ingenious "de-descalation" tactic has only made things worse, whereas "escalatory" steps like providing Patriots to Ukraine have reduced unnecessary death and destruction.

It is another failure to learn from history, combined with irrational (!) risk aversity.
There are some people getting references. Most places also ask for references. Informally, all the people talking about jobs found via their network are references.

It is absolutely harder finding a job without references than with references. You also have less leverage for negotiating salary.

"Your technical expertise, certifications, and dates of employment pretty much speak for themselves."

This isn't true at all. Why do interviews if you just make the decision off the resume? Why do code screens or LeetCode?

I have tons of experience and a long tenure, a masters degree, multiple certs, etc yet I'm a low performer with a disability who struggles to even get interviews. But you wouldn't know that by looking at my resume. At one point I was a high performer and a letter of recommendation could have really helped me.

Tbf. I don't think it's stripe....it's their issuing bank or Clearing bank. They need to use a bank and the banks are regulated with banking codes that determine the risk level. if they misrepresented the code it's a problem for stripe because they get dinged by their bank for being untrustworthy and if the codes are high risk ...it's high risk...
Yeah, might be interesting. I think it wouldn’t be too hard to generate training runs automatically, especially given a solution to start from.
It's sad that SUV's proliferated, especially after the relatively climate and environment-aware decades of the 80's and 90's but I've realised that only governments can enact sensible environmental laws.

What makes you think we "didn't always have this capacity"? Or that other animals don't have it? We have it from a very young age, children like animals, want them as pets, and cry when they see them hurt or killed. We've had at the very least a desire to commune with animals for 100,000 years or we wouldn't have dogs in their current form.

Of course it's not. It's not even a match against the Rockchip boards I've been testing over the past few months: https://taoofmac.com/space/blog/2024/06/16/1800

I also have recently gotten an N100 mini-PC, which helped me put one of my ancient mini-ITX i7 machines out to pasture. Those are amazing (and are dipping under $120 with 12GB RAM and 512GB SATA SSDs).

But more to the point, I think the space the original Pi occupied in hobbyist land is being eaten up by RP2040 and ESP32 MCUs, which can do everything I need I/O wise and with increasingly sophisticated software support (MicroPython is amazing for prototyping, and I even got a WaveShare RP2040 board to test that is a direct drop-in replacement for a Pi Zero)
The Pi 5 is still not supported mainline. Proper mainline support for older models was contributed by third-parties, not the RPi foundation, which just care about their kernel fork.
It’s funny to look back as someone who was seven when SimEarth came out. It was anything but a throwaway game for me, as I played it for months on a mostly daily basis. Same with SimAnt and whatever other similar games I could get my hands on.
For $150 you can get a new mini pc with a low power intel cpu (e.g. N100) and 8GB of Ram. It comes with an SSD, a power supply and (gasp) a case. Add those to a raspberry pi and the price is not much different.

I was curious how large these static binaries would be since the last announcement. Being honest, 100MB is quite a bit larger than I was expecting. Probably fine for CI business apps and such, but kinda rules out a lot of linux util type things.

Seems like there may be some realization that the desire for competitiveness can exceed the natural capability, maybe also (healthy?) self-realization.

Acceptance can become more acceptable, and lead to more widespread acceptance ;)

Any resulting action may or may not be very healthy but I guess it speaks for itself, once someone becomes dependent on a substance to conjure up the abilities that others can do out of thin air.
When my late female pug was young she would regularly 'sleepwalk'. She'd stand up and start digging into the mattress for about 30 seconds, then collapse back to the bed and resume snoring. Almost every night for awhile, waking us up in the process.

Well put! I don’t see anything in there that’s a rejoinder to “ads ew” necessarily, tho; if there’s some actual scarcity then telling people about it is not advertising (marketing!) at all, but rather the job of an index, a search engine, a catalog, a govt PSA, etc.

I don’t think there’s a single argument for advertising other than “manipulation can make individuals rich, and what’s good for the rich is good for society”. Which isn’t a very popular one to say out loud these days, especially in “woke” advertising giants like Google and LinkedIn…

The argument was that you already have a PSU at home. Or in my small town I can get one in 15 minutes, or order it and have it delivered tomorrow.

On the contrary, the notebook style external PSUs are more likely to break and much harder to find replacements to. When it has happened to me the best source to buy has been to order it from another country.
I recall the original OSS included some more hands-on techniques, like throwing your files (the ones you grind with) into the drawer instead of laying them down carefully. I wonder what the equivalent in software dev. would be. Throw files into folders with a lot of force? Ddos? The legitimacy of this document has been questioned, but it is surely food for thought.

Where are these tiny low-power RPis that idle at 1W ? Are you measuring at the wall (i.e. with the power adapter inefficiencies?)

The entire point of the article is that at least the non-micro RPis are not "low-power" at all (something that agrees with my observations). The article is quoting around 3.5W for the RPi5. I was also getting a similar reading for my older RPi4 after months of fine-tuning, while _out of the box_ an N4000 miniPC had 1.8W consumption at idle. RPi may be cheap, but not much else.
Would love to hear some more about your realization. Any thoughts on what it is about either governments or sensible environmental laws that makes this the case?

edit: After rereading I realized I misinterpreted your post. I read "enact" to mean "enact and enforce" but in a sense you are correct that only governments can enact legislation. I see now you made no claims about ability to design enforceable policy.
Are you in the market for one?
Yep, it's still hard to beat Gmail as a product. I had been with them since beta, I think it was by invite only back then. Time flies. I'm giving iCloud a try, even though it's rather painful on non-Apple systems.
This is situation I am in and I went for a completely fanless mini ITX system that works very well for me for close to 10 years already (yes, it is time for an upgrade - probably to a fanless N100 based mini ITX). These systems are a great alternative to both Raspberry Pi’s (that now need fans) and those repurposed office PCs, even if you do not mind the fans.
This is purely a marketing page with no actually interesting technical content really...

Hmm, I worked for a large e-commerce company and they basically faked the red hot "Only 5 items left!" warnings to drive sales with technical mumbo jumbo in the small print.

Did not seem to negatively impact their sales after all... probably same mechanics on Booking.com etc. with hotel rooms.
I've moved my media players and servers to mini PCs and unlocked Chromeboxes and couldn't be more happy. Performance is on another planet compared to the RPi.
Mini PCs however can't be used when one needs a small board with lots of gpios, but there's a lot of (often cheaper and faster) competition in that field as well.
Please, keep in mind that the usual story "other boards don't have decent Linux support/community" is simply not true. Here are Armbian and DietPi pages where you can find images with mainline support for a lot of common boards, including forums. Images supplied by the board manufacturer should rather be intended for quick testing only as you can't count on their support; just ignore them and go straight to Armbian or DietPi sites, and consider contributing for their hard work.

if you want to do this, you generally want a breakout board that breaks out the high speed differential signals to 50 ohm RF connectors and hook that up to a 50 ohm terminated real time scope, and not use a probe.

also for 10gbps per lane, you need at minimum 5ghz bandwidth.

Seems like you might be as confused as they are!

They do, because it's always in the context of how the "gov't" levied a fine on some business, when it was actually a civil suit and there's no governmental action at all.

> They care that these people are getting away with murder and mass extortion and the only penalty they face is a meager chunk of the profits.

What makes you think they are not?

Also it’s not like they’re banning existing SUVs or SUV sales altogether, just looking to reduce visibility a bit. They and anyone who knows they really need an SUV can still go buy one.
with the setup you're implying, the eye diagram is all you can get, which to be honest you can extract a lot of information about transmitter-side parameters like the jitter, but you can't evaluate receive performance at all.

receive performance evaluation is done by injecting known amounts of jitter and seeing if the receiver can tolerate that jitter.

This, but also that they gave a huge middle finger to the hobbyist community during the component crisis by giving preference to integrators.

That is a strawman. What you are describing is an authoritarian theocracy.

While such things exist, they are not synonymous with religion.

It also depends on what you mean by verifiable. If someone has a religious belief they are likely to think they have reason for what they believe. This is true of any contested belief in any field.
Depends on what you consider a "fake experience". The guy in this case legitimately had 4 years of HVAC experience, but he falsely claimed it was at one particular (non-unionized) company when it was actually at two different (unionized) companies.
I haven't claimed that animals don't have it.

In general, empathy can be either an evolved behaviour, a learned behaviour, or both.

In humans this is largely-but-probably-not-exclusively socialized behaviour. Most cases of (human and non-abused) feral children exhibit behaviour that is not particularly compatible with empathy.

I shared my rationale for why we "haven't always had this capacity" a few comments up this thread, and you seemed to agree with it before immediately making the contradicting statement.

No, it has been controversial for at least one other major reason discussed in the BBC article and by Anil Seth—-the near equivalence made between language and consciousness that goes back to Descartes. Descartes viewed the body as machinery, the mind as imbued and linked in a nebulous way to the body, but distinct at some fundamental level.

This split enabled the behaviorist tradition to dominate animal psychology for much of the 20th century.

Here's a sketch of the landlord situation with probably wrong numbers. Just to show the mechanics:

Options for landlord:

Slum:
investment: 5$
Monthly income 100$

Decent landlord:
Investment: 500$
Monthly income: 180$

In a world without LVT the slum option is quite attractive, especially if you don't have much capital, don't want to do effort, or expect to sell soon.

If you introduce an LVT, that might turn out at about 90$.
All of a sudden, investment becomes much more profitable.

And it isn't inconceivable the LVT comes out at 105$ . At that point the slumlord is forced ti either improve, or divest.

The issue with LVT here, is that it will wreck the financials of anyone with significant landownership. It will be a massive transfer of wealth and incine. It will be a totally fair transfer of income. No one is working to earn the money LVT taxes. The transfer of wealth is more hairy, people have worked hard to buy their land. It was at worst a slightly immoral decision if they invested most of their wealth in land, but it is harsh to destroy that wealth.

Regardless of fairness tho, it will face a loooooot of opposition from self interested parties, with a lot of power and influence.
Yeah you really just have to learn to accept the situation. If you find an opportunity to jump ship to a place with competent people, take it. But in the meantime I just remind myself that I’m lucky I’m not breaking my back outside to make a living.

> is there any actual data on harms caused to teenagers from consensual sexual relationships with adults?

YES

Becoming involved in sexual relationships early makes someone mean/cruel later in life. It also makes them more manipulative. Both are bad for society.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are examples of people who got involved sex too early, and we know how they treat people.

Imagine the nastiest attorney you know. I bet he/she was getting laid in junior high.

It really is suitable for most transmission line applications, though, because transmission line impedance is a fixed target. Top-shelf 20-30GHz probes use this exact technique as their "front end" followed by a 50/100 ohm amplifier to lock in the noise figure:
