Sickening like working a construction job. When you're killing yourself in slow motion (the impact, the noise, the chemicals!), and there's no way out.

Most injuries involve an element of luck or skill, and the ego serves as a natural buffer.

Consistent, unavoidable, permanent, self-inflicted damage is different. It hurts in its own (sickening) way.
Maybe it's a new PR move to seem more approachable, by buying high and selling low like the rest of us.

I don’t see that at all? Why is `n:number=1` superior to `{n:1}`? If anything, CLI commands are awful for anything other than strings.

I doubt that statement was meant to be some kind of absolute rule, big cats will definitely eat you alive if they feel like it. But at least you are perhaps more likely to get a quick death..

The advice I grew up with (in swedish bear country) is to do these things, in order:

1. Make noise while in the woods, bears will generally avoid you if they know you are there. You don’t want to startle a bear.

2. If charged, stay calm, make yourself big and talk to the bear, move slowly.

3. If attacked, play dead.

With luck, the bear will lose interest once it doesn’t perceive you as a threat. If it’s hungry, well, bad luck. There have been cases of people scaring bears off by punching them in the nose, so as a final resort I guess that’s something to try.
I feel like this is a somewhat recent change, so I don't know what happened on my computer or within Protonmail; I have an Intel Macbook Pro, and it really seems to slow everything down. Maybe I screwed up a setting but as I said everything else seems to work fine and when I use the Protonmail Bridge it works fine.
It's possible, but completely anecdotally I was in a six car pileup and watched the stuff move from my backseat to the window to smash against it in what felt like 20-30 seconds.

I remember clearly having several thoughts in what could not have been more than 1 second between getting hit and my entire car smashing into another at 60 mph.

"Oh, that's my kleenex box, dang that's just hanging there huh?"
"What's that noise? Oh, its me screaming."
"I better hold my self against the steering wheel for the airbag... wait, if I am thinking this that means there's no airbag"

I remember watching my seatbelt break and snap across my chest, moving like a languid snake, barely motivated to snap back to the wall.

However, many other times in my life in extreme situations nothing like that happened, so I don't know if just jumping off a cliff is enough trauma or fear of death to cause it reliably.
Oh I clicked on this thread specifically to ask about older generation models, thanks for pointing the name.

> A distributed approach to pumped hydro might make sense. [...] There are already millions of water tanks across the world that store water for households and towns.

It really doesn't. Let's ignore that most of those tanks are in active use and can't just be filled and emptied at will so you'd need a lot of additional hardware to do anything.

The fundamental issue of gravity energy storage is that it needs a lot of height or a lot of mass (ideally both): 1kg lifted 1 meter is a bit under 10j, which is nothing (it's 2-3 seconds of a led bulb). If you have a 5000L water tank on the ground an an other on the roof of a two-story house, let's say 7 meters between the two, that's a bit under 350000J, or 97Wh, which is a laptop's battery. And that's before accounting for inefficiencies in the pumps and generators, and friction losses in the ducts.

A good PHS site has an upper reservoir capacity of millions (usually tens thereof) of cubic meters, and at least 100m hydraulic head (some are close to 1000).

You'd need absolutely humongous water towers (we're talking taller than the tallest and larger than the largest) to get decent storage in distributed completely artificial contexts: the tala tank (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tala_tank) has 1.5MWh capacity. That's a dozen electric SUVs (à la Rivian), about 20 sedans if their batteries are not too large.

Moving, lifting, and storing water are things we're pretty good at, humanity has been doing that for literally thousands of years, if it was an easy way to store energy we'd have been doing it, a lot, for a longtime.
This is how I see it. People arent thrilled that they aren't as feature rich in other products (cal/mail) but I see it as trying to compete with the whole of Gsuite. And hopefully the more niche features that a hyper technical hackernews reader might want will come then.
What irritates me is that their ProtonMail iOS client always sends a notification when I log into ProtonMail from my laptop and I can't turn that notification off without turning off all notifications. I don't want to be spammed by yet another useless security-freak notification.

I just went round and round with my bank about needing my phone number so they can text me a TOTP. You know, for security.

Not necessarily. If the array is large and the values are similar, using accumulators would yield a more accurate result than a single one.
I don't really see it being that much more complicated. Signing the image is just one extra step when you publish, but it also means that you never need to update client machines unless the key is compromised.
I found the JSON array syntax a little unintuitive:

$ jb dependencies:[,]=Bash,Grep
{"dependencies":["Bash","Grep"]}

One possible alternative would be to accept JSON literal snippets, like this:

$ jb dependencies='["Bash", "Grep"]'

This should support all forms of nested JSON objects. You could have a rule that if an argument does NOT parse as a valid JSON value it is treated as a raw string, so this would work:

$ jb foo=bar bar='"this is a well formed string"'
{"foo": "bar", "bar": "this is a well formed string"}

You could even then nest jb calls like this:

$ jb foo=$(jb bar=baz)
{"foo": {"bar": "baz}}
IMO it's probably a better idea to just keep on collecting them, and putting it away for the future. E.g. the I-5 bridge(s) across the Columbia River had tolls which stopped when Oregon & Washington bought the bridge, and now look where we are at. We have a 110 year old bridge needing replacement and no funds set aside for it. So what they will undoubtedly do is add tolls after spending a few billion to build a new bridge, and eventually it will get paid off. We could have been saving up for the cost and getting interest on it instead of the other way around. Even with a fairly modest toll, when you have a century to save.

This does require some legislative fortitude, however, to set aside the money for real and not just spend it on other things.
I'm honestly shocked by how long I've been using Fastmail without having a single complaint to talk about.

Usually after using a tool for an extended period of time, there's gonna be some annoyance that you just have to learn to deal with. After five or so years of me using Fastmail, I can't think of a single thing that actually bothers me.

I'm not trying to sound dismissive or overly critical, but in what way is a $1000, GPU-less computer with 32GBs of RAM considered a "mini-PC"?

The price point seems insane too high to be considered "mini" imo.
Yep, and how did humans survive this? By going out alone into the wilderness? That would be incredibly stupid. You die out there alone.

$1300 is not reasonable. I just checked and saw it should renew for $15. So I'd move to a registrar that has a more reasonable cost.

And, dumb question - are you sure that 1300 is in USD? Because I also saw number in that range, but in ₹, not $.

How much of this is true in practice? I vaguely recall reading about a hard-to-diagnose bug where a seemingly unrelated code change meant that an intermediate value was no longer stored in the x87 extended-precision register but in memory instead, leading to a different result. Wouldn't you run into stuff like that all the time?
The legacy of Liverpool's forgotten synchrocyclotron
I certainly would (not as a comprehensive explanation though of course). The range of forms of conceptualization any one individual is capable of (or not) is strongly influenced by the ideology to which they subscribe (or are captured by).

If you simply consider how the human mind works, this "should" be fairly obvious. But one's ability or likelihood to think about such things is once again a function of the norms and accepted practices of one's ideology. That which is not known of, essentially does not exist.
But there are plenty of new ones.
That's just a choice by ASRock, plenty of Mac Mini/Apple TV sized offerings from Beelink. I'm personally rocking a SER7 which has a 7840S for hosting modded Minecraft servers among all my other selfhosted apps. It's excellent and actually capable unlike the N100 chipset which was mostly a Jellyfin box.
I'll second this, I've had absolutely zero issues with Fastmail over many years. It always just works, and is super fast.
One of the reasons few people do that is because the build process becomes much more complicated. It's also much more complicated to do any sort of dynamic loading which is not terribly uncommon.
Use your brain not mine, read and repeat. You can't measure performace of something if it's not possible to do that at all first. Like.. of your understanding till you do - then you can work on it (to make it less noisy and that, not how fast, is what for others matter).

Most of my experience with broken sites are from media extensions for javascript that just are not available to anything other than Chrome. These may be niche, but that is my world. I don't use Chrome, so I'm kind of used to seeing these. Again, these may not be in the wild on sites with large visitor counts, but I have had to decide on not using certain things because they are not available in Safari/Firefox.
Thanks for the detailed answers, I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this.

> In linear algebra, a tensor is an array of data expanding in multiple (or zero) independent dimensions. It is used to represent quantities/equations/functions with multiple components, for example, the equation 3x+2y=0 could be represented with the tensor [3 2 0] where each value in the tensor represents the different components of the equation.

Sorry to be pedantic here, but in linear algebra, a tensor represents a multilinear operation, i.e., a function that satisfies

F(c*x0 + y0, x1, ..., x{n}) = c*F(x0, x1, ..., x{n}) + F(y0, x1, ..., x{n})

and so on for the other n arguments. The variables x{k} and y0 are vectors here, and c is a scalar. The multiple components come in when you choose bases for all the vector spaces involved there, just like the components of a vector or a matrix.

I'm sweeping some stuff under the rug here (like tensor products) because I don't want to go into a full discourse, but that one fact is like 90% of what all tensors do, and with it in hand, you can easily reach the other 10%.

Apple Leak Confirms Four iPhone 16 Models with Same A18 Chip
I'm definitely a fan of making bad data 'unrepresentable' through the type system. The bit flag enum pattern is not so familiar to me in Python, but I recognize it from the CPython internals so maybe it's more common in systems languages. Not sure how I feel about explicitly listing every valid combination of flags, but I'm sure in some cases that's the right move.
Herzog talks about this a bit in his cave-painting movie[0]. It's fascinating to think that for thousands of years, our ancestors lived without any significant change to their world.

Absolutely, very happy Fastmail customer here! My only qualm is that their apps could be better at multi account (switching is too much of a hassle), but that's the only problem I ever had, and I work around it by using different mail/calendar clients.

If you just have a single account with them though, their app is quite excellent and has everything (mail, calendar, notes), no need to get multiple apps and stuff like DAVx unless you want to.
Does a discrete TPM offer specific advantages over an fTPM? I suppose it'd be modular but I can't really imagine trusting AMD to run the entire operating system but then saying they can't be trusted to hold a key and being fine with that in the same system. Not that I'm saying they are therefore perfectly secure rather I'm not sure what risks profiles it really avoids so perhaps other advantages exist too?
Would you use a macOS native application for 2d animations?
You’re still cherry picking, though.

Leukemia and certain cancers were often a death sentence as recently as 1990. Now the survival rate over five years is like 65%+

You can cherry pick a lot of data, but in general the trend line of lifespan and health outcomes has improved the modern average person’s life significantly.

The average person also was pretty likely to die in a motor vehicle accident in 1970, so much so that in CDC reports would just name the accident section “Motor Vehicle Accidents”

I don’t disagree that the public health response to things like obesity are mostly societal issues and lifestyle induced, nor a major problem, but I would still rather live today with unfettered access to knowledge on how to even approach these health issues, than live in the past.

zooming out, the AI space is filled with insiders trading well-paid opportunities among others with very specific credentials.. in a high stakes and heavily constricted network of networks..

contrast this to an open market.. for example I make a poster for a grocery store in my town, that poster is well-liked and I have the rights to reproduce it, or make a similar new one. In every town there could be such activity, and for larger towns, many people could do that activity. That naturally scales for participation, with the transactions of pay and consumption in an open market environment.

The AI space seems much more like building large projects in tight teams with serious resource requirements. The end products are more varied than most people realize, but there is a common thread of replacing skilled humans in jobs with some kind of automation, or extracting value from humans with monitoring and some kind of enforcement. In other words, really contrasting to the open markets ideas.

Honestly I cannot be enthusiastic to put the word "job" and "AI dev" in the same sentance. The real-world dynamics appear to be coalescing into high powered, competing silos, with a side-effect of replacing jobs in some cases.

>The article does not define what "confusion" means in this context. Does it mean that people are confused about what their criteria for mate selection are? About who is available as a potential partner? About what kinds of relationships are desirable?

The article is confused. This isn't the first study on the subject.

Basically online dating data has come out and the vast majority of women are only dating the top 10% or so of men. The top 10% of men have tons of choice and are dating all women, but aren't getting serious with anyone. Why would they when they have so much choice. Back in the day they couldn't get this much interest at the bar.

This has led these men to represent all men to most women. These women are increasingly upset at these 10% of men because they wont settle down or are too much of a bad boy. These playboys leave a bad experience for women in general.

But the grand confusion is in the shift. If you assume the top 10% of men ultimately settle down with the top 10% of women; more or less. Then there's a 90% confusion rate. Women who aren't top 10%(not everyone can be) who have dated many top 10% men and think they deserve a top 10% but truly dont.
> - All the mountain parks are summer focused, which stinks a bit as I want to see them all but have limited time

It makes sense; you can't drive there when it's covered under feet of snow. And when all that snow melts, the ground is still soggy, flooded, and can't deal with the masses.

Many mountain locations open their campgrounds in June, some roads are not drivable until late June -- and then everything closes again mid-October.
