Wet bulb temperatures account for evaporation, but I don't know if weather stations report wet bulb or dry bulb.
There is an ethical question in here that I don’t have an answer for. As an employee, I find a way to do my job more efficiently. Do I hand those efficiencies to my employer so I can get a pat on the head, or do I keep them to myself to make my own life less stressful? If I give them to the boss, do they even have the ability to increase my pay? Using the extra time to slack off rather than enriching the employer might be the best choice.

Edit: and now I see chillfox made the same point.
That has a unique solution, so it is infinitely better than the linear error, but is not a nice differentiable signal suitable for controls, I'd bet. But that wasn't in the problem statement.
I've personally been using Gaia more and more. OsmAnd is great, but the additional layers available (beyond OSM) in Gaia are really useful in remote areas.
I've never tried Orico, that was just the first brand that came up when I searched. I suspect these things are fundamentally unreliable, especially because they are powered by external AC adaptors, meaning there is no real ground between the two switching power sources (one in your PC, the other in the HDD caddy). It's either due to that, or due to the very sensitive signaling along the line, that eventually you get USB disconnects (if you try to run it as an appliance) that wreaks havoc on filesystems, particularly RAID.

The Jonsbo N3 is not comparable. I own one as well (how quiet is yours? I upgraded the rear fan but my CPU fan is noisy), but it's a complete PC case, not an external HDD array.
Knapsack problems, some simple scheduling problems, even the travelling salesman problem.

Many problems in business and manufacturing fit this bill. Optimal product mix, optimal routing, choosing the best spot for a warehouse, scheduling employees, constructing an investment protfolio, coming up with a diet that fits certain criteria, etc.

I even remember a practice problem from uni where we had to optimally distribute songs on two sides of a tape album (it was an old professor), satisfying constraints such as “each side should have a ballad” and “each side has at most x minutes of running time”.

You can do this with regular coding too, but if you can easily construct a certain kind of mathematical model of your problem, you can easily solve it with linear programming.
LZ is even better. Neither arithmetic nor Huffman will compress when the probability of all symbols is the same, but LZ will find repetitions easily. LZ also decompresses extremely quickly --- faster than memcpy is often mentioned.
I see. So there's one more layer of indirection there that I'm missing.
It doesn't help that React is the go-to for getting a job nowadays and most people skip over even the most basic fundamentals to just immediately learning React, without having ever understood the principles behind React or what problems it was created to solve in the first place.

Any developer who I work with who started off just learning React is notably lacking in understanding and skill at webdev when compared to those who did not just jump straight to React.
Seems a reasonable question to me, not cross-examining.

Show HN: Use Karpor to gain curcial visibility into Kubernetes
Hello HN, we're platform engineers working for a big company and we're working on Karpor(https://github.com/KusionStack/karpor), an open-source tool for Kubernetes. Karpor brings advanced Search, Insight and Intelligence to Kubernetes. You can gain crucial visibility into your kubernetes clusters across any clouds. Here is a demo video (https://youtu.be/_PqcpmrBqLk) and live demo (https://karpor-demo.kusionstack.io) with quickstart instructions.

As platform engineers, we are responsible for our Internal Developer Platform(IDP), and one of the ultimate goals of IDP is to enable true self-service for application developers. Drawing from our experience managing a large scale Internal Developer Platform at our company, we recognized an undeniable truth: having visibility (the capability to access and monitor data) and insight (the skill to glean valuable information from that data) is absolutely critical for fostering a self-service development environment. After all, trying to understand and diagnose issues without any information is like flying blind.

Here are some of the features Karpor already supports:

- Cross-cluster topological views, providing a global perspective of resources no matter where they are.

- Customized logical views to fit the resource organization models for different scenarios, such as applications, environments, etc, which may have different interpretations at places.

- Intuitive and effective search, providing a number of user-friendly ways to locate resources across clusters, such as keywords, SQL, and natural language.

- Low cognitive burden, it is read-only, non-invasive to the cluster it’s watching, and users can deploy it to their private environments with one click.

- Discover potential risks through compliance reports.

Currently, we are focused on resource timeline, problem diagnose and integrations with more tools like k8sgpt, aiming to bring much more interesting abilities to developers. Here is the complete roadmap (https://www.kusionstack.io/karpor/roadmap/).

Thanks a lot for taking the time to read! We'd greatly appreciate any feedback you have and hope you get the chance to try out Karpor.
Yes, you are missing something. Query for your favorite search engine is "active sound exhaust system". This is how it affects me.
I wrote a library which I didn’t release yet, where the natural async approach seems impossible to compile in Rust if async I/O is tied too tightly to main logic. (In b4 skill issue)

Sans I/O mostly means, write pure functions and move I/O out of your main functionality as much as possible. Then you can deal with each part independently and this makes the compiler happy.

80-96% of your work on a sans io rust project is still going to be I/O, but it’s not complected with your main logic, so you can unit test the main logic more easily
The left hemisphere wondering what creativity is for…
We do that with MercadoLibre (way smaller Amazon for latam) and the limit they pagination results to 40 pages/2000 products. Never thought of the faceted search approach.
Thanks for the idea!
Ireland, in fairness, has a history of doing tax things just this side of the law, occasionally straying into the wrong side. Notable examples would be corporation tax prior to 2013 (see the Apple thing) and VRT (the EC has actually commented on this, essentially saying that it's legal but against the spirit of the law).

But yeah, very little stopping the UK following Ireland's lead, particularly on relatively trivial matters like the private school fees thing.
So this is just storytelling 101...you don't have to give up the whole story but it does have to be engaging in the meantime...before the _big reveal_. Five dull episodes is not good storytelling and you're probably going to end up disappointed.

Are there any currently-supported versions of Windows that don’t support Powershell Core? I recall installing it on Windows 2012, even.

> Say what you want about bash, at least it doesn’t pull stunts pile that.

I guess it depends on what you consider to be included in the terminal’s domain? There are entire papers and guides on which commands are considered safe (sometimes only when run in a very specific way), and which variants, alternatives, etc. you should use instead, for Bash scripts, because of the inconsistency in what a command evaluates, does, and returns for various distros. That’s not to hate on Bash, but just to point out that it’s not a strength of Bash vs PS.

I think in some ways Labour is going to deliver Brexit in a way that the Tories just couldn't. All the promises that Brexiteers made were the upside of deals, but without the willingness to pay the cost. Yes, our regulations could diverge and in some cases we might have good reason to. But Brexiteers want frictionless trade, and you can't diverge and have no friction. So we just didn't chose. We didn't diverge, because that would be too difficult, but we also didn't take diverging off the table because that was meant to be our big chance!

So labour will decide, they'll decide to align on some rules in exchange for reducing some friction. That is what Brexit meant. It meant tearing up the deal we had with the EU. Now it's torn up, we have to get on with deciding what our new relationship should be.
I regularly use Maps as an actual map not just a navigation system. I’d be nice if they included a topographic map view, etc but not every app needs to do everything at the same time.

Many people have serious issues even with how stripped down everything is, so IMO as a default app loaded on every device it’s a decent compromise.

What does a "disability study" mean in the context of international server installs?
I suppose you meant "feasibility study" or is "disability" the actual word?
Before I was good at Haskell, I would approach a data-processing job sequentially based on the next thing that needs to be done.

I want to open a file, and I can't read it all at once, so I'll use a FileReader and it should be buffered, so I'll wrap it with a BufferedReader. I'll use try-with-resources and click into the classes because I can't remember if the contract of the outermost reader is that it will close the inner readers too.

Right, now I'll grab the next n bytes from the stream, and start thinking about the algorithm. Swear a bit when I think about crossing the buffer boundaries, and on-and-on...

The IO concerns are very much interwoven with the algorithm.

In Haskell I just start by writing one function from bytes to bytes. That's the computation. Then when that's done I expose that function as bytes to bytes.

Others can hook it up to files, webservers, pipe it through gzip, whatever!
What a bloody mess.

>noticing a lack of literature on Perl on the command line

I have written a book on Perl one-liners with plenty of examples and exercises [0]. I've also written books on CLI text processing tools like grep, sed, awk and coreutils [1]. If you prefer just solving exercises, check out my interactive TUI apps [2].

>Is awk just better for this use case?

It depends on the kind of tasks you'd need to solve. I generally prefer grep, sed and awk first. Perl helps if I need powerful regexp and other niceties like the huge number of built-in functions and access to third-party libraries.

I was taught touch typing with pinky on the Z and index on the V for the bottom row. I think that's how it's designed to work, and that in this context stagger is a historical accident that ergonomic keyboards fix.
Don't do as much "local" sysadmin stuff as most of the workloads moved to the cloud and containers, and that's all automateable via APIs which are much nicer to work with in python with its useful library support. (one of the biggest misses in powershell)

There's still a lot of good stuff wrt powershell maintainability by normal humans (though the entire mental model of object output usually throws them for a loop for years) managing local stuff.
I agree but I also think that individuals can benefit from this new offering. They don't have to get a Google/Microsoft account for basic office needs.

But I do agree that there are probably some better things to be done, I don't think they can be competitive long term, someone who needs just a little bit of collaboration or more advanced tools will run back to Google/Microsoft very fast.

In a way it reminds me of the Apple Office suite: kinda cool but also very limited in many ways and a nightmare to collaborate with a wide range of people. The things you might want to use it for are pretty niche...
Pretty much all python, dicts work just as well over here.
Thing is, the UK _was_ conditioned to care about this sort of thing, over a period of decades. Remember the bendy bananas? Basically since the UK joined, the UK's media engaged in a sustained campaign to convince people that EU regulations were unreasonable.

Weaviate Podcast #100 – Generative UIs with Lucas Negritto and Bob van Luijt
I am SUPER EXCITED to publish the 100th episode of the Weaviate podcast with Lucas Negritto and Bob van Luijt on Generative UIs!

This is an amazing example of AI-native applications and the new generation of software! Rather than producing frontend code, what if the generative model just dynamically renders the application?

This reminded me heavily of the GameGAN research from NVIDIA, super cool to see what Lucas is building with Odapt and how this idea is advancing! I thought the discussion of Native Multimodality was really fascinating!

This was such a fun conversation! I hope you find the podcast interesting and useful!

Middle ground? Unheard of! I think you're supposed to be telling me which side eats babies.
It is a wise propaganda tactic to label the exposing of inconvenient truths as “activist”, “mainstream media”, etc. All media can be labeled using such terms. The brilliance of Fox News was to preempt this fact by using the slogan “fair and balanced”. As if it is such and yet its listeners largely believe this and that they are receiving untarnished information and spin.
I know it’s a joke, but if real it could cause businesses to stop offering senior discounts once they get wise to the scam.

There is some reason in this comparison. You might want to answer the question: "if I pick the common approach to matrix multiplication in the world of Data Science (numpy), how far off is the performance from some potential ideal reference implementation?"

I actually do have that question niggling in the back of my mind when I use something like NumPy. I don't necessarily care exactly _where_ the overhead comes from, I might just be interested whether it's close to ideal or not.
wow. lovely article. really motivating to read about this architecture.
I have the moon lander and have settled to almost never using anything on the thumb cluster. It just didn’t feel very natural to me to have to reach for the thumb. I have larger hands too. I think what I do have mapped is only the first two keys too.
No need to thank me. I enjoyed writing it. When I first wrote it it was both a personal challenge (to write a game) and also kind of fun for me to play as well.
I wouldn't use copper for 10G anyway, use a fibre sfp, far more power efficient.
What utter nonsense.

We have left the EU. Both the main parties, left and right, say we are not going to rejoin. The only power the EU has over us is the same they have over any external coubtry who wants to trade with them.

We can improve our trade deals with the EU and harmonise where it makes sense, instead of burdening business with two parallel sts of regulations and testing regimes. This isn't rejoining the EU.
After I learned to lucid dream real life became much less interesting in comparison. It felt like I came alive at night in my sleep, everything in the dream world was so vivid. I learned I could create any environment I wanted, like when Neo trains in the matrix. I would practice things (like tai chi) but it is a bit boring when the other characters don't have free will, so it was like interacting with robots.

The end game for me was going behind the curtain - into the dream control room. It was a room filled with screens each showing a dream I had experienced, even abstract dreams from the age of 3 or 4. From here I could enter any of the dreams through the screen. In the room was a man, like Morgan Freeman (it was like in the film The Dark Knight where he tracks everyones phone), he was the only person I ever met while lucid dreaming who seemed like a real person.

After some visits to this dream control room, I overcame my addiction to lucid dreaming, I stopped being active in my dreams and watched them like someone would watch a film. I knew it was a dream but I chose not to participate.

At this time I was also experimenting with astral projection. I really wanted to have a shared out-of-body experience which could be validated. I got my flatmate to place things in certain areas around our flat to see if I could find them while meditating, but I couldn't.

Being deeply involved in spirituality really distances you from most people in our society. I gave up meditating to better connect with the kind of people I am surrounded by.
They are less likely to be able to use a keyboard if not on a touch screen more likely to pay for streaming instead of personally retain media.

May was prior to leaving the EU; even if you accept that it left in 2020 (it formally left in Jan 2020, but realistically was still part of the EU for the remainder of the year), she was already gone.
The paradox of Popper's Paradox of Tolerance is those that use his Paradox of Intolerance as a weapon are doing so in the name of unlimited tolerance and fulfil the actual conditions that Popper stated would lead to the elimination of the tolerant through the ascendancy of the intolerant:

>Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance [i.e. "diversity at all costs"] must lead to the disappearance of tolerance [i.e. the ability to agree to disagree]. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant [i.e. heretic-hunting ideological conformists], if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.

Tolerance is not enthusiastic embrace, but "the willingness to accept or tolerate someone or something, especially opinions or behavior that you may not agree with, or people who are not like you." These heresy hunters are strictly intolerant by the meaning of the word and destroy the predicates of a tolerant society.

Most of the papers in the syllabus are about the SAT/SMT-based solver era of program synthesis, and neural synthesis is popularly - with open benchmarks - succeeding on problems those failed to gain traction on.

The research question is shifting to how to either bridge the worlds (better together) or leave the old one. That doesn't make SMT era papers wrong, but as with Bayesian vs NN, relatively impractical or otherwise irrelevant for most people until a major breakthrough happens (if ever). Ex: Agentic loops are interesting from a direct reuse of classical synthesis results perspective, and I know big labs are experimenting with different methods.

I'm transparent that I was part of the old world, and while synthesis was a design hope for our startup (I was publicly demoing SOTA here 10 years ago!), it was never to the quality we could invest in commercializing those school of methods. When GPT4 hit, we could finally add synthesis-based methods that ship. I get the impression you are part of the older SMT world and reject modern advances, and would wonder the reverse for you. It's a bit galling to be accused of voting with my feet - and shipping - after patiently waiting 10 years as an invalidating thing instead of taking that as a proof point that maybe there is something going on.
Make no mistake, there were others (for starters, whoever wrote the TRS-80 version of "Trek") that had first inspired me.
Reminds me of Punchr, a satirical startup that matches bullies with people that deserve to get punched.
