$843M is the contract cost, basically to just do the R&D. The vehicle itself will be sold separately.
Copying docs like this as idiomatic code seems problematic in any language. The docs have no clue what your domain is and couldn't give a sensible name for a variable in it.

For example, lets look at "string". Most examples are gonna just call it a "str" or even "s". But if what you have is someone's name you should get called out for calling it a "str" rather than "name".

You shouldn't name all your mathy variables x, y, i, j.

You shouldn't name your channels "chan" or "c". Unless its just generic channel code.

I don't mind short domain variable names. But "chan" isn't that. It's like calling all your ints "num" or all your strings "str".
TL;DR: Freewrite[1] tries but it isn't the same

They are selling a line of professionally oriented devices. I'm not sure they're worth it.

* The "Alpha" model[2] nods to the AlphaSmart form factor, but it isn't e-ink

* Weird-looking keyboard layouts with no Apple-style key in sight

* These devices are expensive for what they seem to offer

I've never used one so I can't really speak about more than what I've seen on the site. There were some negative reviews of earlier models. I'm not sure how current ones rate, nor what their keyboard feels like.

>but only if one treats it as the first iteration of the program with the expectation that the initial documentation may well be thrown out.

This point really hints at there being some other facotr at play. I agree that writing documentation first is fine, but in the same way writing some bad code is fine.

I'd argue that the most important thing you can do to increase your chance of success is getting to the details as fast as possible. Do everything you can to get out of nebulous "big idea" mode and get into "we have this, what exactly are we changing about it" mode.

If you write documentation or code doesn't matter.
I realize this, but the fact that the format is "Turing complete" doesn't actually have any direct bearing on whether it's exploitable. Because the input to a TTF engine is not actually x86 machine code, it's misleading to frame it as "arbitrary code in ring0". It's not arbitrary - it can't do anything unless the TTF engine has bugs. And any format loader can have exploitable bugs, not just Turing complete ones.

Security wise, Turing completeness doesn't matter[note]. All that really matters is that the implementation of the format is complex. H264 is not Turing complete, but it is complex, and thus a frequent source of vulnerabilities. Conversely you could probably put a toy Brainfuck interpreter in ring0 and, with moderate care, be confident that no malicious Brainfuck code can take over your system.

[note] It matters a little bit if you consider it a "security" problem that you lose any guarantees of how long a file might take to load. A malicious file could infinite loop, and thus deny service. But then again, this isn't restricted to Turing complete formats - a zip bomb can also deny service this way.
Some prior art in terms of computers with built-in Forth interpreters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter_Ace

And, of course, the Open Firmware used on Suns, PowerPC Macs, the One Laptop per Child, and others made use of Forth (including for the ROMs in expansion cards, allowing them to be CPU-agnostic): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Firmware
Unfortunately it's not, this is some supplementary video. The full thing is 44 minutes long and covers a lot of different angles. The ongoing story about the Czech Xenon clinic in it that he covers over a longer time period is especially crazy.

Edit: Yes the full one is that second link.
I had roasted and spiced wild boar meat once, I expected it to be gamey but it was quite tender. It probably was more to do with how they had cooked it.
If you own a website and you really think this is a slippery slope, that it crosses some line in your sandpit, you can stop using Cloudflare.

But worrying about ad injection off the back of a legit good-guy action seems like an overreaction. They've always been able to alter the websites they serve. They do frequently to optimise and this seems like a very benign extension of that.

Having more energy available (all things being equal which they aren't) is advantous to both survival and crop yields.
That's a bug. We'll take a look - thanks.

Long story short is that some of this analysis is async. We do a lot of parallelization to make it fast. But, we limit results for free searches to keep costs low. But, sometimes extra matches keep getting found after we try to stop free searches.
Modified Dragon seems like the simplest option. Dock and then burn retrogade while attached. Probably not nearly that simple in reality though.
Indeed, from the article:

>Wild boar were selected for these PFAS studies because they — and their livers in particular — are good “bio-indicators” of “background” levels of PFAS in the environment.
But wouldn't xenon (as a noble gas) be pretty hard to ionize? Without a charge it shouldn't interact the way ions do.
> The whole Falcon 9 program didn't even cost 400 million $ to develop initially.

The Falcon 9 first flew in 2010. US govt CPI measure over the period 2008 (picking a development start time at random) to 2024 is ~45 percent. I've not idea if this explains it all, but it certainly explains a chunk of it.
let mut line = String::new();
std::io::stdin().read_line(&mut line).unwrap();

And I just looked it up and it's right there in the docs, too: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/struct.Stdin.html

You basically shouldn't use `tokio::io::stdin()` for what you want, as is documented at https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/io/fn.stdin.html

> For interactive uses, it is recommended to spawn a thread dedicated to user input and use blocking IO directly in that thread.

So the code under tokio would be

let line = rt.spawn_blocking(|| {
use std::io::stdin;

let mut buffer = String::new();
stdin().read_line(&mut buffer).unwrap()
}).await.unwrap();
Australia is massive. If we have high levels of PFOA in feral pig meat in the N.T. and northern queensland thats a very interesting problem. The feral pig problem at large is of course an ecological disaster but since it extends into productive lands close to habitation on the coastal edge and south-east, it will include areas we know are massively contaminated. The north tip and the northern coast are much less subject to this, tick-bath and drenching tank waste aside (and that is some heinously bad stuff, but I don't think its PFOA)
Europe (especially germany, or gamedev) is all PPTs.

I sold google workspace to my org and Google Slides is what is giving me the most backlash because it is considered woefully inadequate compared to powerpoint. Especially around brand identity tied to fonts.
tbh it's increasingly sounding like you're defining a CRDT as "something is decided and written down in all cases" and simply ignoring every single other quality they guarantee.

Those other qualities matter. So much so that they're literally the defining qualities.
"...once Nakamura succeeded in creating a commercially viable prototype, 3 orders of magnitude (1000 times) brighter than previously successful blue LEDs, Nichia pursued developing the marketable product. The company's gross receipt surged from just over ¥20 billion (≈US$200 million) in 1993 to ¥80 billion (≈US$800 million) by 2001, 60 percent of which was accounted for by sales of blue LED products."

And IIRC, in return for that he got a $180 bonus from his employer, and a bit later, a Nobel prize.

> So...with $843M, what could SpaceX come up with? In Gwynne's shoes, I'd be looking to develop a vehicle with far wider application than a 1-off LEO deorbit burn.

So that would probably point to "Starship, possibly with a lot of fuel loaded onboard, docks with ISS, and then feathers its maneuvering jets to push the ISS into a guided re-entry into the Pacific Ocean."
The thin aluminum pressure compartments are the biggest issue I'd imagine; they can only handle so many heat/cool cycles orbiting the earth before the material fatigues and fails. You'd have to replace them all if you want the station to continue, at which point you're essentially building another station.

No, you can bring GPLv3 code into software with other licenes such as the MIT license.
The hisense e-ink phones are known to have week long battery lives (A5 and A9) so I'm thinking not all e-ink is the same. I know there's e-ink nerds out there and forums dedicated to it but I don't actually know the different types (here's an overview I think: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_paper). Maybe the good stuff is harder to find
In this case he didn’t have heirs and seems to have asked in his will to auction it off instead of endowing it.

The term psychedelic is describing specific subjective effects rather than a mechanism of action, what you're thinking of are the classic serotonergic psychedelics which are 5ht2a agonists but ketamine and other dissociatives can be considered dissociative psychedelics
Unless you colonize it, you cannot utilize 50% of the Earth's energy. If it proven anything, what the war in Ukraine showed us is how terrible of an idea to outsource energy, especially to nations who don't share interests with us.
Maybe the extra cost is to look into bringing it down without destroying it. Would be good to study it for data on long term spacecraft.
When is the auction? Anyone have the details available?
Sounds like he was onboard with shutting things down. It wasn’t a foresight thing, more that he wasn’t interested in it going on
The people railing here are ignoring the fact that for whatever reason (he didn't actually care that much, he was sick and didn't have the time) didn't explicitly provide for this museum to be maintained into the foreseeable future. That may or may not be a bad outcome but it's what happens when someone passes and they haven't made an explicit provision with funding for something they owned.

By and large, museums need to cover their operating costs and apparently this one didn't.
You're underselling it. The bottom floor has vintage hand-cranked calculators that you're allowed to compute with!
I had not, looks cool. I'm gonna wait 10 years and see if this (ECAM) gets to Bambu Labs price and quality, if not then maybe I'll DIY one.
A few of my pieces are quite desirable and valuable, most of them not. I looked at the numbers, and all together 40-50% of what I paid is the ballpark of today's value, not including any consignment fees.
I have, worked as a cashier for a couple years. I know they never let you get to 40 hours, if you do then they have to start offering benefits.

However, that wasn't part of the exercise. Grandparent stated that:
> McDonald's for 40 hours puts you well above poverty line

I decided to run the numbers rather than go with gut feeling of no way. Figured I would share since I did the work.

Grandparent was only haft right since they also state you would need a crazy amount of dependents to put you at Federal Poverty Level. If you had 2 dependents, you are above but living hand to mouth and one accident away from povert.
It’s also rather poor. When was the last time you’ve seen a poor US politician? Frickin’ Bernie Sanders has three times as many houses as I do.

When you stop thinking of google as a high-tech company with good managers and engineers, and realize it’s been 20+ years and now it’s just a leetcode-fenced club full of mediocrity, many dots in this picture connect by themselves.

In college I used a lot of nitrous. I got small cartridges and a “cracker” with a balloon. It was pretty euphoric.

I stopped after recording myself taking it. I was unconscious a lot longer than I remembered being, and even though I was probably never at risk of suffocating there were long periods where I didn’t see myself breathing. That was enough.

I regret the effects it may have had on my brain. It’s impossible to know the counterfactual “what if” and maybe binge drinking was worse.
I don't doubt there are some people like that BUT -

1. Given how difficult the medical side is (something the anti-trans people like to call out all the time as 'multilation'), I don't think we should be looking down on trans people who haven't done anything medically

& 2. Even if this group does exist, what's the point of bringing it up, especially here in this thread? It reads as being opposed to trans rights altogether because 'they're all faking it for clout' which just isn't true at all.

&& 3. Even for those you'd call 'transtrenders', is it really so bad to want to dress differently and get a new name? It's not that hard to accommodate and doesn't hurt anyone.
From season 3, they're all great, but besides the Xenon one I also remember "Ultra LSD" and "Synthetic Toad Venom Machine" being especially great episodes.

> Scheme isn’t special because it has closures, it is special because you can write functions that write functions.

When Scheme was developed, it was special, because it used lexical binding and provided lexical closures. That was new. Writing functions that write functions would not have been new, since LISP had that already -> including Maclisp, which was used for the first SCHEME implementation. Later Scheme got used for exploring different macro systems.

Yeah, but this is the ISS we're talking about. Obsolete commsat number 723, sure, no one's going to care about deorbiting it, but the ISS has historic and cultural significance. Raise it a bit to a parking orbit, everything else can keep track of where it is, and a thousand years from space archaeologists can explore it.

Or pack it inside otherwise empty Starships a few segments at a time and fly it down intact to put in a museum.

The AI Plateau Is Real – How We Jump to the Next S-Curve
I had one and in a moment of greed sold it :-( What I loved about it was:

* Used regular batteries, no charging, easily obtainable, lasts quite a bit

* Keyboard was awesome

* Retro look & feel

* Size

What I didn't like:

* 8 line display is tiny!

* Would prefer a bit smaller

* Getting data off is a pain (ether are many workarounds but you have to fiddle with it)

So, assuming a $200 price point and using the 5x rule of thumb for HW products, BOM should be $40. Problem is eInk displays are kind of expensive. Putting $15-ish for a 7-inch+ display, rest seems bearable doable. (I've never developed a consumer HW product, so these are wild guesses.)
Wait a minute — when I hit arrow keys in vi and get letters instead, is that because vi is in no-read line mode? I figured this was a termcap thing (for the past twenty nine years while I’ve been a vi user).

Apparently, a pretty incurious one.
Linear no threshold refers to cancer not acute radiation sickness. People getting people getting a sunburn vs skin cancer from sun exposure are experiencing different biological processes, the underlying mechanisms are related but different.

Threshold dosing in terms of cancer has zero evidence to support it, and cancer is already really common suggesting if there’s any threshold we are well past it.

The only reason you hear about it is there is an industry who really wishes it were true. Just like people suggesting low dose exposure to lead wasn’t harmful when they want to sell Tetraethyllead in gasoline, monetary rewards cloud judgement. Same deal with tanning beds and just about any product exposing people to ionizing radiation, the risks don’t seem bad when there’s money to be made.
Unsurprisingly, terrible Korean internet strikes again. ISPs try to charge companies insane fees because customers want to connect to their servers. Company decides to use peer-ro-peer instead so the ISP starts installing spyware on customer computers.

Makes me wonder where this myth of "good Korean internet" even came from if everything ends up so bandwidth constrained. Is it because all the customers and services are in the same city so it appears low latency?

I hope everyone involved in this catches criminal charges, all the way up the chain. Completely unacceptable behavior.
Quote from the energy charts page:

> The physical electricity flows do not provide any information on whether the electricity was actually consumed in the country or whether it was forwarded to neighbouring countries as transit electricity.

So when people talk about imports and exports, they usually talk about who paid who (electricity trade).

Sweden and Norway are already listed. I suppose it's possible someone in Denmark was buying from the Scandinavian countries and sold it to Germany, I don't know how the markets, bidding zones etc work in detail. But even in that case it was not really buying that much French nuclear.

And again, even if it was I don't see a real problem. Germany thinks it's a bad deal to have them running, but if France thinks it can make it work, sure. Sounds like a win-win.
Here's hoping launch costs fall quickly and it gets absorbed and rebuilt as a much larger station, Ship of Theseus style.
Well it is hard to give advice when you don't really provide much regarding your background or your existing experience.

TPOSNA Volume 1/2 of Limoncelli has a lot of good wisdom in general for the operational side, though there are some aspects that have become dated, most has stood the test of time.
> There's a difference between "finding new constitutional rules," on the one hand, versus recognizing the logical implications of existing rules, on the other.

A sweeping right to kill fetuses is not logically implied from a right to be secure against warrantless searches. Many legal systems have the latter protection, but the US is an aberration in interpreting it to create some right to bodily autonomy.

> Mocking "emanations from penumbras" seems to hint at hostility to the Ninth Amendment's explicit rule that not every right and liberty must be explicitly spelled out in the Constitution.

The Ninth Amendment is just a savings clause. It cannot support conjuring new rights into existence by spring boarding off enumerated ones. Put differently, the bill of rights isn’t a set of legal principles which can be invoked as the building blocks to divine previously non-existent rights to override democracy.

The quoted portion of Griswold is unpersuasive in the extreme. I’d call up and yell at any associate that handed me anything like that. People would be up in arms if the Court used similarly vacuous reasoning to, for example, divine a “right” that was economic or regulatory in nature.
US involvement in South America is arguably the leading cause of the current instabilities in the region. It is not the sole factor but in order to understand the geopolitics of the region must be taken into account. Knowledge of these US involvements are often not well known in my experience.

Consider for example the role of American legislation and consumption in the drug trade and the resulting immigration and criminal crises throughout the continents.
This seems like it's using fluorine as a proxy for PFAS?

They seem like they also directly attempted to measure actual PFAS, but then mixed the results with fluorine, I could not quite understand what they did. Maybe someone can interpert?

I don't like using organic fluorine as a proxy for PFAS, because fluorine also exists naturally in the environment - we mine it from the environment after all.

That's the dye from Hexaplex Trunculus, but it's more of a bluish purple than a true blue. There seems to be modern ways to turn it into a true blue, but whether the ancients had an unknown method is debated and unproven. It's worth noting that colour names in ancient times were a lot more blurry than now (the famous sea the colour of wine of Homer), and blue is still one of the most blurry.

Miles Davis "Jazz at the Plaza" is pretty much the band from Kind of Blue, live. It's a good record.

There's another Miles record that is very meditative, "In a Silent Way" but it's quite different. Electric pianos and organ and John McLaughlin on guitar.

Kind of Blue is sort of an its own level, though.
Bolivia has been independent since 1825 and has since then experienced over 190 coups. Nobody can whitewash US involvement in South and Central America in the 20th century, but the US is not the sole cause of Bolivian instability. Perhaps it makes more sense to blame colonialism, which set up the unstable rural/urban indigenous/white duality that has made the place so fragile.

Would need lot of extra fuel to raise altitude for an escape trajectory. Fuel either brought up the gravity well at launch or later refueled in orbit. Of course not all satellites are designed to allow in-orbit refueling. Maybe an reusable orbital tug might be something that someone will come up with.
They could sell me Photoshop version 2024, and I could pay them $600, and just use that for the next 20 years. Instead, I'm being sold Photoshop: cloud edition for $50/month, for forever. I don't actually own my copy of Photoshop that I'm giving them money for, I'm renting it from them.

Photoshop is Adobe's product, so they get to charge for it however they please, but that's textbook rent-seeking. You could argue that they're improving Photoshop and deserve the rent, but what if I don't want those new features and I'm happy with Photoshop 2024, but regardless of that, I'm still only renting Photoshop (and the rest of the suite) from them these days.
