>And even if you want to repair rather than replace, you might not be able to do so easily. When it comes to electronic components, “the pace of change is so fast that a company will make something one year, and in two years down the line, they don’t make that component,” says Michael Pecht, a distinguished professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Maryland. “They’re making the next generation and that new component may not fit the old one.”

>Personally, I think life would be better if browsers just didn't play the game at all.

A web browser is a user agent. Why is the browser deciding anything one way or another? Let the user decide by providing options one way or another. If the user wants DRM access, let them; why is it the browser's business?

Again, the two important words: User agent.

The freedom to decide and choose is what helped Firefox take out IE6 and led to most subsequent browsers featuring some form or another of extensibility (which incidentally is now regressing because web browsers are increasingly developer and publisher agents).
Ah, sorry. The intended parsing turned out badly. That is meant to be "More than likely it is "just you". What that means in detail is unclear." Ie, what it means for it to be "just him" is not clear.

In hindsight I like the irony that the statement was also unclear, for all that it doesn't do my comment any favours.

Hindus might like a nation of their own when they are a billion in strength and India was where Hinduism was born and grew.

Hindus are a majority in India. 80% are Hindus and 94% of the world’s Hindus reside in India.

There is thousands of years of history of Hinduism in India. It was the colonial Brits who created a ‘secular’ India after they orchestrated the partitions of Pakistan and Bangladesh (as Muslim countries).

As a democracy, the nation has the right to choose a Hindu Nation/Rashtra over secularism. This is true for every nation in the world. As the only non abrahamic polytheist nation in the world, there seems to be some unfair expectations of India and what Indians want. Why?

The Abrahamic nations have split the whole rest of the world amongst them. Hindus have only one nation. Why can’t their have their spiritual land as a Hindu nation if it’s democratically desired and achieved?

It is the spiritual land for over a billion Hindus(whose rights and places of worship are being trampled upon in the name of secularism while other religions are not required to follow the law of the land)

Israel is a Jewish nation. There are many Christian and Muslim nations. Why wouldn’t Hindus want a country where they have civilizational roots to be a Hindu Nation?

Are all the countries of the world ‘secular’? Why do we expect India to be constitutionally secular? There are only 5 countries that have secular baked into their constitution, India, USA, France(Laïcité), Australia and Japan.

India is only secular by name. Currently, there is the nation’s law and then there is the Shariat Law for Muslims.

These laws especially impact women as it relates to marriage, divorce, inheritance, succession etc. the Christian and Hindu Personal Law are not at odds with the constitutional law.

To this end, BJP, the current ruling party wants a Uniform Civil Code where the law applies equally for every citizen.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_personal_law

3.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Civil_Code

It would nullify Shariat Law. It is a mockery of the word ‘secular’ when different laws and rights are allotted to different religions. It is against democratic principles. And fundamentally wrong.

That's one improvement, but network booting can also help us home-gamers who don't have a hundred Raspberry Pis that are all doing the same thing.

Many of us have a handful of Pis at home doing whatever they do, each with their own unique MicroSD card. In this configuration, every time the number of Pis doubles, the overall MTBF for their collective storage halves. Backups are a pain since each Pi is a unique and special snowflake, and are thus somewhat unlikely to actually get accomplished. When a MicroSD card does die, that Pi's configuration and all of the work that went into making it do whatever it likely disappears with it.

However, when booting over the network:

A handful of Pis are at home doing whatever they do, and booting from a reasonably-resilient NAS (eg a ZFS RAIDZ2 box) somewhere in the house (which is a great idea to have around for all kinds of other reasons, too). Adding more Pis does not decrease storage MTBF at all, since there is no MicroSD card to die. Backups become simple, since ZFS snapshots make that kind of thing easy even if each Pi's disk image is a unique and special snowflake. Space-efficient periodic snapshots become achievable, making it easy to unfuck a botched change -- just roll back to an hour ago or yesterday or whenever things last worked and by using that snapshot instead. Undetected bitrot becomes zero. Speeds (for many workloads) might even increase, since at least the Pi4 can handle wire-speed network traffic without any real sweat.

It's not a great fit for everyone, but it may result in a net long-term time savings for some of us folks here who tinker with stuff at home if enough steps are automated, and it seems likely to result in fewer frustrating surprises.

> That DeepLearning12 build cost a lot. For example, we had to get a $350 torque driver that could hit the tolerances needed not to crack the NVIDIA P100 GPUs. I was in the data center starting to install these, and one of our kind readers who worked on the Baidu AI research cluster in that same data center stopped me, letting me know I might break the GPUs if the torque was not perfect. Indeed, the worst story I heard about this was that HPE broke several V100 generation GPUs due to torque/ thermal paste thickness.

This is scary to me!

> "median US home price" is not a relevant measure here

It certainly seems relevant to the discussion of "The things that were possible in 1980". Yes, it was possible to live more cheaply in the uninhabited exurbs of Utah in 1980. It's possible to do so in 2024 too!

Upthread commenter was clearly evoking the idea of the US economy for low wage workers having gotten "worse" in the last 40 years. Something that's (1) clearly not true in general given the data and (2) not even true in the specific situation evoked.
I like that he can be 3D-printed.

It may not always be practical for individuals to 3D print things like this, but consider the following:

There's more online services popping up for people to 3D print things on demand and have them shipped. Further, there's aggressive Chinese-based cloners that can take these projects and make them available for purchase on sites like aliexpress. It might seem like copying/stealing, but in a way that's in line with the ideals of FOSS --free to use and modify and anyone can sell a build. Since this is hardware, a build is much more meaningful than a simple compilation/linking into a binary.

I imagine if this dynamic grows further, we'll see clones popping up on regular retail sites like Amazon.

Will the contributors get royalties and such? No --but crucially, users and the community will be able to treat the product as fully FOSS.

Sir, I drink pasteurized milk.
I've worked out my whole life (since around age 14, now over 35) and had periods where I did a lot of supplements like creatine or pre-workout.

I no longer bother with them, although creatine is one of the more well researched / "real" supplements, so you're better off with that than lots of others.

To me though they've never really done anything (besides cost money). In my opinion the best bang for your buck is drinking a coffee before or during your workout. That and make sure you get enough sleep and eat nutritious food.

Unraveling a blockchain-based framework towards patient empowerment

Now, we know that scientific advancement, technology integration, and patient empowerment need to be orchestrated to realize future smart health technologies. In that effort, this paper unravels the Good (advantages), Bad (challenges/limitations), and Ugly (lacking patient empowerment) of the blockchain technology integration in the Electronic Health Record (EHR) paradigm in the existing healthcare landscape.

> How often does the memory card break on a Raspberry?

I have no data on this, only anecdata - since I've started being interested in the Home Assistant project, I've seen countless problems with people who've done an upgrade, rebooted their HA Pi and had some kind of Disk IO issue because the card died.

As I understand it, it's the constant logging to disk for logfiles and databases that ends up killing MicroSD cards. It seems to be particularly bad for clones and cheap ones off eBay/Amazon. It's still apparently a problem even for high quality "endurance" MicroSD cards.
He's making a good point. 100m was invested in stability. They are out of money with no clear path to product market fit after giving their model away for free. I'm personally ecstatic that they failed but it is worth asking about the value this technology is producing compared to the cost.
I can’t help but think they should have just revoked his passport first just to sidestep the whole argument.
What does "practically" mean here?
There is not a single group in my area on there, sadly (Central Oregon), vs the dozens upon dozens on Meetup.

Reminds me of the eBay & Craigslist situations where there's a strong network effect, and they're not easy to displace despite the poor UX and such. It takes someone with an already-big network (like Facebook Marketplace) to stand a real chance. It's going to be hard to dethrone Meetup.com :(

We need more of the stable diffusion tool set in 3d AI creation. Upscaling does incredible things in SD adding in all kinds of detail and bringing 512x512 to 4k. Inpainting to redo weird arms or deformities. Controlnets like outlines, depth, pose etc to do variations on an existing model.

The real fun begins when rigging gets automated. Then full AI scene generation of all the models… then add agency… then the trip never ends.
A lot of that "commons" was the work of people who gave absolutely no permission for their data to be used like this, that is, creating a machine intended to compete with them. My hope is we collectively tell these freeloading ass holes to pound sand. Public does not mean limitless license.

Generally speaking, this is not the place to discuss amateur medical takes. Not only is it a bad idea a-la offering financial advice, but nobody on this site is guaranteed to be qualified to know if this is a right or wrong post. There could be a thousand comments on the submission before a single qualified person comes in to say it's all hogwash. In general it's just not worth the risk associated with this sort of topic. I tend to flag most health-related submissions that are not written by a qualified medical professional.

I'm not sure why it's being autoflagged (maybe just because it's from Medium), but this is the sort of content that would probably end up flagged manually anyways. Sorry.

I was mostly bringing up the 5.2 vs 6.4 both under Metro area.

The CSA isn’t necessarily relevant, but a reasonable agreement exists that it’s really the same metro area. The beltways (495, 695) are less than 25 miles apart. Laurel, Maryland is 20 miles from both downtown DC and downtown Baltimore. Meanwhile the other cities from Richmond to Boston are 95-200 miles from each other.

I knew someone whose tech support job would regularly send them to both cities in the same day. Apparently many companies located between them so they could easily serve both.
Nice, recent, paper that explains exactly how Snowflake works and how Iran/Russia tried to block it.
