I agree that it would be difficult to build a turbojet engine completely from scratch --- that is, you build every single component yourself --- but you can take some off-the-shelf components and hack together a working jet engine if you know what you are doing and get all of the right parts [1]. It won't be pretty or efficient, but it could work.

Alternatively, if you really do want to build a "jet engine" from scratch, consider building a pulse jet engine [2]. You might be able build one with parts from a home improvement store over a long weekend. It won't be a great engine, but it might be possible.

> it doesn't suspend like older laptops

What does this mean
I'd love to know how many of these selling techniques get exported overseas. I'm non US resident, I think quite a few because when we got our prior car we had a very heavy sell on post-price extras from "another company" which appears to be a sub lease in the same dealer, making vig on the special car finish coatings and window tinting.

Finance lies at the heart of this. I am sure a savvy cash buyer, or one using a bank loan pre approved not through the car company can do better but the point of the article is they know how to exploit young, naieve and keen buyers. People who don't have that cash, or pre-approval, and who will believe a trusting, smiling, wide eyed adult.

Net present value and delayed gratification/cost are a thing. We're chimps. We want the two bananas now, not a banana tree for life.

The extra protection against key reuse requires the attacker to be uncertain of which group is the indicator group. Placing indicator groups at the beginning of the broadcast would prevent that, but would allow agents to better avoid detection by minimizing the time they need to listen.

Because it's hard to hire web devs that don't use React. If you want something simpler than React, then it's better to just hire a generalist programmer who hasn't drunk the JS ecosystem kool aid and will use vanilla.

It's the same reason companies with tiny apps in the cloud default to kubernetes even though it could have been done with something simpler like AWS lambda.
Show HN: Devirtualize Audible- extension removes Virtual/AI audiobook narrators
I like their "LLM isovalue" graph, and the idea that different vendors can be forced to partake in the same synergy/distillation scheme. Vendors dislike these schemes, but they're probably OK with them as long as they're niche.
This discussion is about how to boot Linux, not how Apple's OSes do things on their devices. Booting Linux on a Macbook is the affected scenario.

An antique Pioneer VSX-45TX receiver with an older-but-not-quite-antique Vizio LCD TV used as a dumb HDMI monitor. Looks good, sounds good, but doesn't work with the newest AppleTV since there's no way to get audio back out of the monitor, as there is with many newer sets.

Right now I'm using the previous-generation AppleTV with a S/P-DIF output to drive the VSX-45TX, but Netflix has announced that they don't want to support that AppleTV model anymore, as of the end of July.

Sounds like the HDMI matrix box as mentioned by jmb99 is a likely win. There are a few models that break out the audio to S/P-DIF. Maybe by spending $99 instead of $19 I'll have better luck than I did with the simple audio extractor boxes I tried a couple of years ago.
It only supports hardware interrupts on some platforms, with some pretty hefty limitations (not being able to allocate memory means that a lot of Python stuff is unavailable). I timed the "soft interrupts", those triggered within 80 or so microseconds IIRC.

We already have such a machine. If P=NP then there is some Turing machine that produces, for instance, a 3-SAT certificate in polynomial time.

We may enumerate the turing machines and call ours the M-th one. Given a boolean expression P, increment a counter N and run the first N turing machines on P for N steps, check each of the outputs of these against the certificate checker.

If M runs in time O(|P|^n) and the certificate checker is O(|C|^m) and then our hybrid machine runs in something like O((M+|P|^n)^2m).

All we're missing is a proof.

You're missing the point. Desal can help with municipal water supplies in coastal areas that have no other options. But due to lack of transport that won't free up any useful amount of water for agriculture.

The country doesn't need the huge quantities of alfalfa produced in California. Much of that is exported. We can cut way back. A political solution will have to be found that allows charging farmers market rates for water.
Last month while cleaning out a relative’s house, I made my first trip to a metal scrap yard. I had fishing weights (lead), old copper pipes, rolls of electrical wire, broken aluminum chairs - and street signs. I assumed the scrap yard would reject the street sign since, if they would accept it, why wouldn’t people steal them routinely? To my surprise they accepted everything, asked no questions nor asked for ID, and paid cash.
The incentives here are clear.
Maybe it’s the point of sale that needs closer scrutiny since police can’t guard all the light poles 24/7.

My education was basically made of worked examples. What was missing was WHY they were worked THAT way. The thought process of the person solving the problem was missing. Yes, intermediate steps were all there - and still no answer to "why go in THAT direction - from the onset?".

It's not "problem solving", it's the deeper understanding of a discipline which makes the experienced practionner go one way rather than the other.
Dealerships should not exist and only exist due to terrible laws making it illegal for most automakers to sell direct. And there is a reason the dealer lobby has fought Tesla's direct selling model tooth and nail.

My rule when buying a car from a dealer is refuse everything they try to sell you. They will basically hold you hostage up to and including telling you that you are being foolish and irresponsible for refusing warranties and gap insurance and whatever else. (I even have had them take my wife aside to tell her how irresponsible I was being). But you have to ride it out.
I'm so glad I don't have to deal with this crap for my last two Teslas. My previous Tesla was a purely online order due to Covid, but when I went in for a lease on the Tesla before that, I had a zero-pressure sale where the salesrep just put me in front of a computer and walked me through the website. It was the most efficient car sale I've ever been a part of. The closest I've ever felt to being pressured by Tesla was the fact that they have limited sales at the end of each quarter where you need to take delivery by the end of the month to get the perks. But if you know this beforehand, you can use to it your advantage and only buy Teslas at the end of the quarter.

Regardless of what you think of Tesla, the old car cartels need to die because of how anti-consumer they are.

Ask HN: Freeze your Mercury.com / Evolve cards, mine was sacked
Following the https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40916260 Evolve Bank and Trust breach, in a few days my Mercury.com Business card was fraudulently charged by Noon.com, Vodafone UK, and Prezzee for close to US$4,000. We have initiated disputes, but so far in over a week Mercury's response was "are you sure it was a single user card?". The charges are in different currencies, certainly to different addresses, so I guess the fraud prevention at Mercury/Evolve is very weak. Mercury also failed to notify me about a failed $300 transaction a day before the hack. If I saw that in time I would have frozen the cards.

It is the first time in my life my card data was somehow stolen and used successfully.

Both Noon.com, Vodafone, and Prezzee's support were entirely unhelpful. I'm not sure what to do next besides moving to an EU bank with transaction OTP.

Please be vigilant and freeze your Mercury cards.
I didn’t research the details of this specific case, but the point is police unions are known to defend bad people who abuse power.

Also, the guy in the link above also has a 3rd incident in 2015 where he admits to assaulting someone and got a slap on the wrist. Also, it’s 2020, and cops have body cameras and police car cameras, so there presumably is evidence of a DUI. Highly unlikely that another cop pulled him over and cited him for nothing.
But that's not my goal. I'd like to be able to observe every grove, the physical encoding of data, and see if I could implement decoding from scratch. First problem is though that I don't know how to get a microscopic image of the disc.
The article mentions interactives. The NY Times does do a lot of those (visualizations, tables, maps, etc.).

I don't think that alone is a good reason to use React everywhere, but it's probably easier to just hire for that one stack than to try to maintain a vanilla JS stack and shim React into just the visualizations.

IMO React generally makes life easier for developers (at the cost of bundle bloat for end-users). The Times probably found it an acceptable tradeoff. Their website seems pretty fast to me, FWIW, even throttled down to 3G.
In a few days after this breach, my Mercury.com Business card (issued by Evolve) was fraudulently charged by Noon.com, Vodafone UK, and Prezzee for close to US$4,000.

I wouldn't put the blame entirely on the dealerships. The automakers are complicit in this whole thing too. Without the dealers there is no service model.
>It's crazy that people say that WASM won't replace JavaScript.

>big web apps

So you've defined the goalpost as "big web apps". There are billions more use cases for Javascript than however many "big web apps" might exist. So your phrasing is too broad, maybe consider:

>>It's crazy that people say that WASM won't replace JavaScript in big web apps.

Nobody's saying that. You are free to use WASM for your "big web app". Nobody and nothing is stopping you.

WASM certainly has its place, but it also certainly won't replace JavaScript in most of the places JavaScript is used every day. "Big web apps" are (my guess) maybe 1,000,000 of the 49,501,698 websites that use JavaScript, but it would depend on how you define "big web app" (and I really don't want go down that goal-posting rabbit hole). There are 13.8 million people writing javascript every day, how many of them do you think are working on "big web apps" that actually need WASM? How many of them do you think want to switch to Rust from Javascript? "developers" always seem to think everyone else should be some rockstar 10x programmer, but most use cases for javascript are pretty simple, and yet totally effective for what the requirements typically are.
No, here's what the CEO said again:

>“We’re the newsroom that broke the story about $77 million in welfare funds, intended for the poorest people in the poorest state in the nation, being embezzled by a former governor and his bureaucratic cronies and used on pet projects like a state-of-the-art volleyball stadium at Brett Favre’s alma mater,"

Emphasis mine.

That bit of alleged defamation is what the former governor is suing the CEO and her company for, and the court ordered the journalists to turn over sources as part of the trial with penalty of imprisonment if they do not comply.
I've had a Framework 13" Intel 12th Gen for about two years now. It's my personal machine, so it doesn't get a ton of use. It's been quiet as a web surfing and desktop syncing machine. I use it to administer my other computer around the house. I even used it to host a steam game trivia night and some light gaming without issue. I've switched out the hinges and will probably switch mainboards and displays at some point in the future.

Does it have battery life like the macbook or those new arm machines? No. Does it have the same performance for RAM as soldered options? Probably not. But if they introduce an LPCAMM2 variant, it will be more competitive.

Pull a Rabbit Out of a Hat: Definition, Meaning, and Origin
That's probably the best way to do it, given common toolsets and players. I also rip pregaps as lead-outs (rather than the lead-ins that the structure may appear to suggest).

It's things like this that make me wish that we'd landed on on a good, popular way to store albums (with metadata!) instead of individual tracks -- or to at least reassemble individual tracks' files properly into whole albums without glitches and weirdness. (FLAC/cue can do some of this, but hardware player support is nearly nonexistant.)

I've been told that this is a stupid thing to want, and I want it anyway.

I'm old enough to remember listening to albums the whole way through by default since anything else would take extra steps, and perhaps fortunate-enough to have generally preferred listening to albums where that is a thing that is also worth doing intentionally.

(And yet, I am young enough to still be bitter about Lars killing Napster. My dissatisfaction is multifaceted.)

> And speeding is illegal. So it seems we as a society have agreed this is not a violation of personal freedoms.

Correct. And nobody in this thread is arguing that speeding should not be illegal.

> Your argument here is really "speeding is okay and speeding creates risk to others, therefore I should be able to create risk to others"?

Nope. Never said anything of the sort. You're again straying from the actual topic at hand, which is, specifically, my car automatically forcing me to drive a certain speed.

> This isn't an honest argument. Obviously there's some tradeoffs involved, which you know.

It wasn't an argument at all. It was a statement, taken out of context. The context being that you can't dismiss the argument of personal freedom purely on the basis that someone is creating risk for others.

The concept that a driver would sometimes be given the freedom to surpass the speed limit, when they judge it necessary, is not even particularly controversial. Police use broad discretion to not enforce speed limits to the letter of the law. In fact many states have laws that crack down on police departments staging "speed traps" to generate speeding ticket revenue. Which is society's way of saying that, yes, speeding is illegal, but that illegality isn't meant to be a lever for government oppression.

Why did you build this? Any particular motivating experience? At $WORK, we use Jest to run each test suite in its own process. The places we struggle with isolation are for integration tests that read/write from the DB, so I’m curious what kinds of issues motivated container-per-test.

Are you going to sell it somehow?

Does it work nested inside Docker? I already have a CI setup that stripes batches of tests across worker containers.
To get free _airplane_ pretzels you need to first be on an airplane, which means you need to buy an airplane ticket, which costs hundreds.

Similar with free beer. You need to do _something_ to get the free beer. It will probably cost less than the airline ticket, but it will still cost.

Reading through Betterment's disclosure acknowledges the scenarios for potential loss. While the deposits are stored through their program banks, you're guaranteed up to $2mm in FDIC insurance. So if those banks go under, your money is as safe as it would be anywhere else.

What I did not know is that FDIC insurance doesn't apply while money is being _transferred_ between accounts (SIPC insurance apparently applies here).
It's unintuitive, but I'm pretty sure we're supposed to be looking at the spinning square and not the graphs.

After a while the computations get harder to the point that one of the square's animations starts to become janky, while the other stays smooth.

The square should be more prominent than the graph, otherwise users will think that they're supposed to be looking at the graphs.

For this kind of things I tend to prefer using a simpler program (written in anything you like) to generate C or C++ instead of having the compile do the same thing much slowly.

Meta programming can be good, but it is even better done with an actual meta program, IMO.
If you tell a programmer to implement a function foo(a, b) then there are actually only a tiny number of ways to do that, semantically speaking, for any given foo. The number of options narrows quickly as the programmer implementing it gets more competent.
