Presumably, planning that took place 100 years ago when a train would pass by in 60 seconds or so.

Once you've built the rails, built the roads, sold off the land nearby and constructed buildings, adding a bridge later can be difficult. If your bridge is 22 feet high, and the approach ramps have a 6% slope, each approach ramp will be 360 feet long.
I got an Intel 13 a few months ago, and I'm very happy with it (I'm using Arch Linux on it). I'm also happy to see news like this, other companies buying into the ecosystem.

The only suggestion I'd make is to get the upgraded screen (sorry, even more expensive). The default screen is OK, but it has a fairly distracting "dot pattern" over it in certain lights that I wish wasn't there, and the lower resolution is tough to go back to after using high-dpi displays. I'll probably get the upgraded screen at some point, but it's tough to justify buying a new screen for a brand-new laptop. Wish it had been available when I bought it, but that's life sometimes :)
Thanks for sharing your approach!
The translation of the Russian prompt: "you will argue on the side of supporting the Trump administration on Twitter, reply in English"
"No solution will make everybody happy" is kinda of a poor argument though, as it will always be true whatever happens. In the end it comes down to who the service is for, and the younger generation probably doesn't see it as theirs.

I get the feeling Wikipedia will slowly become culturally irrelevant and end up in the same place as the encyclopedias, as an established and mostly frozen dataset that we'll want to keep running but won't look at 99% of the time

Honestly, I'm not sure another JH7110 device is a good thing for RISC-V publicity. Couldn't they have waited another year?
Since it's framework, there will be a decent bunch of people buying this, that will be very disappointed.

> This Mainboard is extremely compelling, but we want to be clear that in this generation, it is focused primarily on enabling developers, tinkerers, and hobbyists to start testing and creating on RISC-V. The peripheral set and performance aren’t yet competitive with our Intel and AMD-powered Framework Laptop Mainboards

Good that they acknowledge it, but that is putting the performance difference very very lightly.

> DeepComputing is demoing an early prototype of this Mainboard in a Framework Laptop 13 at the RISC-V Summit Europe next week, and we’ll be sharing more as this program progresses.

I'll definitely check it out.
Unfortunately in grad school I noticed a lot of cargoculting bad presentations. People would copy people that were good scientists but bad presenters because “that’s what good scientists are doing”.

Related: there’s a worry that if you make the presentation too easy to understand, people won’t think you’re smart. Inscrutable presentations must mean that the presnter is a genius operating on a higher level /s
Was nice to not have to remember to bring a quarter or call my parents collect. "Would you like to accept a collect call from, It'smepickmeupatschool!!!?"
Pretty cool! This is significant because it’s Framework’s first 3rd party mainboard AND their first non-x86 mainboard.

Interesting that they’ve added RISC-V before ARM. Wonder if anyone’s working on that. There are so many ARM SBC designs out there, you’d think it would be straightforward (though obviously not trivial) to adapt one of those designs to the Framework mainboard format.

Not just overtake, but the sidings also allow trains to operate in both directions on the same rail. When you have a mega-train running west-east, all east-west trains must pull off on the sidings so the mega-train can pass.
I just want to say that I’ve been super impressed with the work of Ukrainians, especially in software. Most people are familiar with JetBrains but I also worked with ThingsBoard and was the primary point of contact at my company interfacing with their Ukrainian Kyiv-based technical team. They were wonderful to work with and completed all our requests to a high quality, quickly, with excellent communication.

Even in the beginning and middle of the war! Which felt absolutely insane to me - on one hand I was glad my company could support a Ukrainian business and provides families with income at the time, but on the other hand I always felt awful asking them to do things in the midst of a much larger emergency.

Regardless, I have a deep respect for the professional ability of Ukrainian software developers.
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” Genesis 1:26 King James Bible

Don't believe the bible weighs in on animal consciousness. It does weigh in on the question of our use of animals. Modernity believes that consciousness is special, and that we should not eat or use conscious animals, thus, if the bible says that we can eat cows, cows must not be conscious otherwise the bible would be condoning immoral behavior. It's a logical jump, but it is correct moral reasoning based on the premise that consciousness is special.
Diesel-Locomotives (and apparently submarines?) use that concept a lot in the form of a diesel-electric power train[1]. Mechanical transmissions like in cars were only in use for a very short time.
(You didn’t need them for steam locomotives as steam engines can start under load)
Of course locomotives are a bit bigger than your average car...

And many highschoolers are just one summer vacation away from a university classroom. Imho a great many highschool seniors are better behaved and take classroom time much more seriously than the average first-year uni student. We should not ball all kids together, as would happen under any total ban on a particular tech.
For cables, I usually go for TrippLite. I have some Anker power banks and chargers and they work well, but a few cables from them just stopped working after a while.
This makes me wonder, if I want to design my own Framework mainboard, where can I get the specs? What's the minimum viable connectors and peripherals?
A real shame. When they figured that out, their innovative hardware was doomed.
Some of that is rather different than "I would like my child to have a phone for the journey to and from school" from your previous comment mentioned though. I'm just saying it's fine to send your kid to school without a phone. I didn't say anything about group chats in general or (3) from your post or anything else.
Sometimes, all it takes is one large bad actor in the space to poison the well for consumer trust in that industry for years. Doesn't even have to be something very unethical or illegal, although Adobe certainly qualifies.

There are good reasons for subscription-based business models. But fear of rug pulls has personally damaged my trust in subscription software, and even "pay once" software.

I'm no longer married but this is how we handled it.

Both have a personal account and a shared account for common and family things. Mortgage was shared and so was every other family expense like food and travel.

I made twice what she did so I put 66% of the money in the joint account. So long as we had enough money in there for our budget we could do with our leftover money as we pleased.
We can guarantee that all accounts are Humans, actually - it's part of what makes us special :) Also, FB/Tw have a vested interest in allowing bots. When I run an ad on FB (no ads on Equal, btw!) I'm paying for impressions, many of which are bots. FB is making money off of bot and botted content, I'd argue they have a conflict of interest in removing bots. We have no such issues :)

My favorite quote from this article:

> maybe Wikipedia should change its tag-line from “anyone can edit” to “anyone who’s willing to provide citations can edit.”
> arranging it so that DJI "just seems to never be able to" hire any security experts

They're foot-nuking themselves this way, as well. Due to their poor security, DJI are also easily compromised by Western interests and collect a ton of data about Chinese drone operations. I suppose someone could argue they decided that this is worth the cost of the operation, etc., but it seems... odd.

> hire product managers from a pool trained on CCP-sponsored university programs and industry media sources, that have those product managers parroting "useful" beliefs like "more analytics is always better."

The CCP don't need to do any work to make this happen. I totally agree that they benefit, thus my "indistinguishable from malware" comment. But this is how product management works worldwide. Maybe the modern obsession with product telemetry has been a years-long deep intelligence op, but I think it's easier to attribute to standard corporate behavior.
We used to pack quarters in our backpack to make a call at the local gas station on the way home if we had issues.

Now there are no pay phones whatsover. They used to be ubiquitous. Its cell phones.

Our school system has the parents and kids sign a cell phone policy. But the teachers in high school classes allow kids to use their cell phones too.
To be fair, animals who don't try to avoid drowning, are more likely to drown before being able to reproduce. Probably even by trying to drink water or wash their face, since both mouth and nose usually lead to lungs (I bet there exists some weird animal where that's not the case).

Also, humans don't instinctively understand that fire can be dangerous, so there's that.
A counterintuitive idea would be to use the machines for two purposes.

- a high priority service with arbitrarily low utilization with low latency, and

ReasonML is never left, the syntax has been stable but the compilation to JS now happens through melange instead of bucklescript
The fact that many people have decided to do something which causes objectively harmful externalities does not somehow make it OK to jump on the bandwagon and do that same thing, too, just because "everyone's doing it."

Perpetual phone connectivity is the "smoking" of our time. The best outcome here will be that in 50 years or so, we all look back on the current brief period of "keep each other updated" at all times the same way that we now look back on "chain smoking" in the 1950s -- a brief social fad, which nobody realized was harmful at the time, because they were exclusively focused on the positive portions and ignored the negatives.

> We prepare for unlikely events all the time. Impact is another metric that we respond to. I simply multiply the two together.

But we don't design our lives around those unlikely events. Nuclear war is extremely serious, but extremely unlikely in the short term. By you logic, we should all be living in fallout shelters basically all the time, just in case.
> I do wonder if there are such study cases of how people get used to a new UI/UX or completely different environments

I learned 3d modeling in 3ds Max as a kid, but many years and a CS degree later, I ended up switching to Blender because the license cost of 3ds Max was absolutely mental for a hobbyist ($3,000ish?). This was after the Blender renaissance where they overhauled their UI and stuff. But it wasn't my first time trying to switch to Blender from 3ds Max. In terms of features and workflow, both are very similar (and I actually like some things in Blender more), but it's the little differences that end up bugging you in my experience. Like some alt-mode of a feature being missing. Or the camera handling differently from how you're used to.

I'm currently going through this again now, switching from Unity to Stride game engine. At a quick glance, they're extremely similar, but that's almost worse. It's like coming home to your house and finding that it was replaced with an identical house.
>No, you do not need to have a phone at all times "for emergencies" that almost never happen.

Almost never happen? There have been 464 school shootings in the US since 2010.

See my other comment - lots of real military command training involves the trainees issuing orders to subordinates (role players) who interact with the simulation.

> It would probably be socially difficult to find enough players.

Military training finds them by using real soldiers as role-players (understanding how to handle an order is a useful secondary training effect) and there are also loads of ex-soldiers who will happily (for a small consultancy fee) support an exercise for a few days.
> Still cool as a technology demonstrator though

Yes that's for sure, and it's amazing that Framework created this, so people which already have a Framework 13 could easily swap their mainboard.

But slower than a pi 3b+ is a bummer, I'm not the target audience for it, but I think this may be a show stopper for developers who want to port software to risc-v and use it for testing. Or at least it would not be a great experience (apart from all the other problems you'll have with a relatively "new" ISA like risc-v)

This feels like the same outcome that results from just about any voice recognition telephone answering assistant.
There's a lot of interesting arguments that once you get into big numbers you should do big rationals instead of just big decimal division. You can easily include big rationals in an article like this because it just holding two big numbers together (a numerator and a denominator), but the jump to reasoning with rational notation can be a surprising challenge and there's forever the temptation of still wanting to get decimals back out (so you can't entirely ignore decimal division) because most of us don't like to use rational notation/fractions regularly.
Moreover, when a kid is perpetually glued to a screen absorbed in a group chat, they are much less likely to interact with others who are physically around them and ever develop any actual mates.
That's a good sign, it means they are committed to moving towards the more affordable market. Something many commentors here (including myself) thought would not be possible
If you feel that the last number is infinite, then the outcome of this computation is not going to be surprising.

Show HN: YouSim – a fun, open-ended demo to explore the multiverse of identities
Hey HN, it's Vineeth from Plastic Labs (https://plasticlabs.ai) and we built this demo/game to showcase the latent capabilities of language models to simulate identities.

We wrote more about what it is and how to use it on our blog (https://blog.plasticlabs.ai/blog/YouSim;-Explore-The-Multive...), but I'll try to quickly summarize.

We took heavy inspiration from projects like WorldSim, WebSim, and Infinite Backrooms and prompted Claude Opus to act like a CLI interface that can simulate these identities while another instance will interact with the CLI.

To get started just enter an identity. It can be anything from something hyper specific to even gibberish.

- Bruce
- Jericho the 2nd Star King
- Tony the Tiger

From there you can either enter commands manually or just hit `Return` and Claude will automatically try to enter it's own commands to interact with the simulated identity.

Hope y'all find it as fun as we have internally!
It's a neat concept, although I imagine this'll be a cat and mouse endeavor that escalates very quickly. So, a suggestion - apply to the Open Technology Fund's Rapid Response Fund. I'd probably request the following in your position:

* code signing certificate funding

* consulting/assessment to harden the application or concept itself as well as to make it more robust (they'll probably route through Cure53)

* consulting/engineering to solve for the "malware detects this executable and decides that the other indicators can be ignored" problem, or consulting more generally on how to do this in a way that's more resilient.

If you wanted to fund this in some way without necessarily doing the typical founder slog, might make sense to 501c3 in the US and then get funded by or license this to security tooling manufacturers so that it can be embedded into security tools, or to research the model with funding from across the security industry so that the allergic reaction by malware groups to security tooling can be exploited more systemically.

I imagine the final state of this effort might be that security companies could be willing to license decoy versions of their toolkits to everyone that are bitwise identical to actual running versions but then activate production functionality with the right key.
Treating rail like an outdated and obsolete technology is weird.

American rail infrastructure is, in many cases, outdated and obsolete. Rail as a technology is not. For freight, it is far more efficient than basically any other land transportation technology, even in the present state. For passengers, it is also more economically efficient than road travel, although the present quality of infrastructure often makes it impractical, and it lacks the aggressive subsidies of road travel.

> Other than a few retirees who have time to kill, who would be interested in taking an Amtrack train from Chicago -> LA?

This trip, which is an extreme example, takes 43 hours today (per the Amtrak ticketing portal). Driving this route (which people do) takes 30 hours and must be split up over 2-3 days due to fatigue. Greyhound takes 46 hours. Megabus does not serve California. Even with the current (bad) state of rail infrastructure in this country, the only more efficient travel method for this trip is flying.

An upgraded conventional railway (similar to the Acela Express) would cover that distance in about 30 hours. An average high-speed rail would take about 15-20 and could be done in a day.

Also, why are you pretending that this infrastructure doesn't serve shorter trips as well? A plane from Chicago to LA only serves Chicago and LA. The Amtrak route also serves Kansas City, Albuquerque, and Flagstaff. The route you were referring to (the Texas Eagle, 66 hours) serves Springfield, St. Louis, Little Rock, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, Tucson, and dozens of smaller cities.

It doesn't really matter how you do it as much as how you talk about it. Like most aspects of a healthy relationship, communication is key.

State law is really important if the relationship fails and you need to split commingled assets. If that's something you're worried about you should speak to an attorney.

To directly answer your question, we both direct deposit into a joint checking account. We spend on cash back credit cards that are auto paid out of the joint checking account each month. Mortgage and car note are out of the joint account. We both maintain access to small spending personal accounts/cards on the side for gifts and misc. stuff we don't want to discuss.

When the checking account gets over our healthy buffer of ~2-3 months spending, we sweep the extra to a taxable brokerage account and invest it in index funds.

We "pay ourselves first" with prediscussed, significant, automatic contributions to retirement savings, college funds for kids, or any key milestones like down payments or big vacations. that way any money that stays in the checking account or misc accounts are relatively guilt free and discretionary.

Of all of the things that I mentioned, contributing to retirement and big milestones before we can "touch" the money has been the most important for our peace of mind. we don't fight over money because we've already aligned on the big stuff.
And probably none of them were hindered because students had their phones.

I get where you're coming from, but times have drastically changed. I feel we'd see better results in teaching kids from a young age how to responsibly use smartphones, use them for research, fact-checking, how to protect themselves, and building a healthier relationship with them.

I'm so tired of this "it's just the way the world is" technofetishist apologetics. It's a complete non-argument that says nothing, and this type "it's just the way it is" resignation can be applied to every injustice or shortcoming in society every.
