I am male with large palm and fingers but a 6.5" phone is simply unusable for being a phone. Pocket? Haha, probably a small sachet, weights 0.2kg, comedic on the face for calling, all the folks lost their minds completely giving 1000$ for such a parody?! It can't even sit stable on the desk for f's sake. Pretentius fragile money pit garbage all.

Just set up a new Android with 6.5" size and I am in a particularly bad mood now. Wasting my hours on ...this! The process itself is infuriating, zillions of 'features' just wasting my time reading how über-user-focused are so set it up NOW! while tap-tap-tap-tap-tap for seemingly into eternity, beyond comfortable by an ocean plus a half, but watch for this and accept that and log in and register here and connect that and you will be amazed, allow us to take your data, don't worry, we care, we say it repeatedly so it must be like that, right?, here are two dozens of icons be amazed about, wow how many icons are there it is amazing, amazing multiplied, word-editor-assistant-presentation-maker-tv-communication-console-education-news-pretty-sleepwithme-and-tap-me-tap-me-day-and-nigh-oh-yes, into eternity, but first allow this and allow that, just one more, read that, we improve your experience so do it do it, do it again and again, soon we get there, oh wait, camera MUST have discovery of nerby devices otherwise closes itself, hmmm, not something on my old Pentax, that's new kind of development in the history of photography, watching for nearby bicycle or toaster or whatever...

Users have no self respect nowadays, none!, and swallow whatever manufacturers stomp down their throats in the dozen, repeatedly. It is good this thing was the cheapest, I did not dare discovering past 8 years' development on high price, and will only be used as a small tablet at home apart from being a guinea pig, not good for anything else (without satisfying its attention hungry distracting barrage of time wasting functional nothingness). Maybe navigation from time to time, but unsure, heavier than some travel books!

Note this guy may or may not be considered a bit of a crank:

> He has a history of making self-aggrandizing claims that are not particularly credible and that are not defended with evidence, and consequently, he is something of a pariah in the serious amateur fusion physics community. He maintains a website / forum that (among other things) cultivates his preferred image and gives him publicity free from technical pushback on those claims. He has followers who range from grudging in their tolerance of this narcissism, to completely credulous and sycophantic.

> …There is no doubt his projects perform detectable DD fusion. However, hundreds of other, similar, hobby projects do this as well… I don’t think he’s a quack. I do believe he’s not scientifically cautious, has a large ego, and makes outlandish claims.

Not trying to be snarky here (and this is by no means unique to your situation) but it sounds like what you have is a knowledge issue more than anything. Don’t apply things in prod you don’t understand. EDIT: by “you,” I mean people copy/pasting migrations and applying them, if that wasn’t clear.

The rise of RDS et al. has utterly killed the majority of people’s knowledge of RDBMS, if they had it to start with. It’s a shame. Also a solid and enjoyable career for me, so I suppose it’s not all bad.
The fact that they aren't mentioning their CLA which gives them extra rights that everyone in the community doesn't get means they're disingenuous in writing this article...

Same, I left in 2014. I left after a couple of years to almost double my pay and not work on a Linux RT USB driver directly out of college for which I had no desire to be a SME, but in hindsight I think the coworkers I had there were smarter than anywhere else I've worked since (including Google). They paid absolutely nothing but seemed to have good culture, at least where I was at the time.

I look forward to a future where space resources (asteroid mining, solar collector arrays) are used almost exclusively for the highest-return purposes - generating more space resources!

Every time something goes up or down the gravity well we call Earth, we all lose. That cost is a huge barrier to efficient profitable activities. And since the highest cost location for any resource to be deployed is currently in space, it makes sense to just leave the stuff up there, use it there and generally build an economy there.

I can hear the naysayers - "What's in it for those of us still on the ground!" and the answer is, we play money games here, essentially wagering in that giant parimutuel betting parlor called the 'stock market'.

For instance, create a fund now for investing in space industry. As funded business profit (by selling their output to each other, leaving it in space where it does the most good) the fund raises in value, attracting further investment.

I find it interesting that a self-proclaimed Apple fan finds the Galaxy Tab superior to the iPad.

However, this argumentation is not always coherent - for example, equating a lack of foldable devices with a lack of innovation is not an analogy that I would care about (compared to, say, faster refresh e-paper screens for improved professional use, or even just longer battery life).
He should give more detailed examples to substantiate his claim of "better hardware, worse software".

From my perspective, Windows, MacOS and Linux (e.g. Ubuntu LTS Desktop) are mostly stagnant or even decaying in end-user appreciable innovation, so singling out iOS appears to be a bit unfair; for instance, X Window supported 16 mouse buttons in 1984, and what's new in Wayland? (And don't get me started about menus called "..." on any platform - one used to find things much more easily in the past before bloat took over.)

No one wants that weight. A thicker battery puts the phone out of comfort for everyone. A thicker camera bump puts the phone out of comfort for only a few.
I'm currently using a 965 and I love it. That said, I came to it from fitbit so maybe my views are warped.

Generally, just turning over my wrist to look at it works exceptionally well at showing everything, a firm tap works when that doesn't.

The 1 to 2 weeklong battery life is also great.

It's really one of my favorite watches.

My wife has the pixel watch 2 and holy cow does the battery on that thing suck. She never uses the sleep function because the damn thing is empty at the end of every day. Like 14 hours of battery life max in normal usage.

42 the number of honks per minute amongst self driving cars.

The AGI trained the self driving AI to recognize all sorts of objects and obstacles but not themselves. Perhaps to not be defeated by their reflection in the mirror. That old parable learnt from the tale oft repeated about a dog and the bone. Best to honk, defense in depth. geese honk in flight. Should work for cars too. Or perhaps the AGI generalized too far from the nursery rhyme: Hear a honk, there a honk, everywhere a honk honk… after all these AIs are multi modal.

Its super frustrating how the entire industry follows Apple; incapable of original thought. The Pixel 8 had somewhat rounded edges, which is fantastic for a comfortable grip. Apple killed rounded corners and converted to the squared-off design with the iPhone 12; and everyone has followed suit since. Galaxy phones used to have curved edge displays; now they're squared off, because Apple. Samsung's watches are generally circular, but they had to go squircle with their Ultra variant, because Apple. Apple does Titanium; Samsung has to do Titanium; no one gives a flying shit about titanium!

I would bet every dollar in my pocket that Apple is intending to convert back to a more rounded design with the iPhone 17, and the S26 and Pixel 11 will follow suit.

Begging+pleading for the googung corpodrones to have just one original idea, even if its only "we're gonna do it this way simply to spite Apple" (they won't).

Unity issues aside, Godot is awesome! I'd love to see an integration.
My main point is that while it definitely has to compete on price, it doesn't have to compete on price while also making you buy ten times as many cells.

Many elements of being the "best choice" are thresholds. Excess performance doesn't make it better. Price is extremely important, but power density is not so important for most use cases. So if it's even slightly cheaper, expect to see a lot of it.
That’s just redshift. Redshift alone wouldn’t be evidence of expansion, just relative speed, when people say redshift evidence they mean the relationship between redshift and brightness of a standard candle. And regardless of whether you call it redshift or the relationship between redshift and something else, it would be impacted by a change to redshift.

That’s incredible. I wonder what are the costs relative to a grid scale battery of equivalent size.

Sounds like the water moon from Iain M Banks "The Algebraist", quote:

"I was born on a water moon.

Some people, especially its inhabitants, called it a planet, but as it was only a little over two hundred kilometers in diameter 'moon' seems the more accurate term. The moon was made entirely of water, by which I mean it was a globe that not only had no land, but no rock either, a sphere with no solid core at all, just water, all the way down to the very center of the globe.

If it had been much bigger the moon would have had a core of ice, for water, though supposedly incompressible, is not entirely so, and will change under extremes of pressure to become ice. (If you are used to living on a planet where ice floats on the surface of water, this seems odd and even wrong, but nevertheless it is the case.) This moon was not quite of a size for an ice core to form, and therefore one could, if one was sufficiently hardy, and adequately proof against the water pressure, make one's way down, through the increasing weight of water above, to the very center of the moon.

Where a strange thing happened.

For here, at the very center of this watery globe, there seemed to be no gravity. There was colossal pressure, certainly, pressing in from every side, but one was in effect weightless (on the outside of a planet, moon, or other body, watery or not, one is always being pulled towards its center; once at its center one is being pulled equally in all directions), and indeed the pressure around one was, for the same reason, not quite as great as one might have expected it to be, given the mass of the water that the moon was made up from."

The ballpark math is easy to do in your head too. The diameter of Earth is 8,000 miles, and the deepest point in the ocean, the Mariana Trench, is only 7 miles deep. It's immediately apparent that the oceans are tiny by comparison to the rest of the mass that is Earth.
> This sphere includes all of the water in the oceans, ice caps, lakes, rivers, groundwater, atmospheric water, and even the water in you, your dog, and your tomato plant.
Thanks. This really put it in perspective for me better than the image or other analogies!

It's weird though that there apparently isn't a market for even one high-end small phone, from any manufacturer.

I wonder if to some extent they're not different enough. The iPhone mini has a 5.4" screen. Not so long ago we managed well enough with 4" iPhone screens. I wonder how a 4.5" version would sell - call it the iPhone Nano.

Unfortunately a lot of apps don't support those smaller screen sizes so well anymore. But people who want a small phone that's easy to carry around, who won't be using it for hours a day, don't always need many apps.
I have tried contact lenses, but it seems they keep rotating around slightly and don’t match the angle of my astigmatism exactly, causing my vision to become blurry. I don’t know if it was a bad fit, but my optometrist told me it is because astigmatism correcting lens come in 15 degree increments, and the angle of my astigmatism falls right in the middle of these increments. I have never heard of anyone else having this issue and would have thought that surely it would be more widespread. Has anyone else had this issue, and have they corrected it?
The FDA and International Reciprocity (2013)
I am from Europe and I really don't think the "US left = European center right" is accurate at all. People keep repeating it but you would be shocked who got voted into the EU parliament and is considered "centre right" - they also talk about deportation, they actually built a wall, and they actually shoot at people trying to get through the border.

Let me remind you that EU actually does deport people all the time in practice - US is considered very "illegal friendly" by our standards, as it's practically impossible to live like that here due to all the necessary bureaucracy and approvals to have basics such as healthcare, employment, bank account and payment card (necessary as cash payments are limited to small amounts - you can't even buy a car with cash legally), a place to live... While a not uncommon practice in the US. Nobody here understands that you can actually get "legalized" after/during an illegal stay in the US - it's impossible around here, being illegal puts a permanent black mark on your passport.

There is an entire police department just for dealing with foreigners and catching and deporting illegal residents. All foreigners must register with that department, renew their registration regularly by personal visit on the police station, show up at the station when they are randomly summoned, allow the police inside their residence for a random check - and the police will actually check things like - is your wife actually your wife or is it a trick, are you actually working where you said you work, are you housing more people than you should and what's their status, etc. All foreigners must keep their address of residence and contact information updated, and just having that wrong can be enough to get deported - and it will happen, sooner or later, even if they find out years later and you have corrected the mistake in the meantime.

All this is nothing new, it's always been this way. It's one of the major reasons why the US is taken as land of freedom - the ability to just come in and work there, with personal rights much closer to what the citizens get, is a freedom that we ourselves don't offer, EU states require you and your employer to prove they tried and couldn't find someone local first; and good luck without an employer sponsoring you - you can't get health insurance and bank account without an employer in my country (with an exception for students).

And half the EU has a very bad opinion about anything resembling socialism.
> I just don't see what this is trying to do outside being a learning experience for students.

Perhaps one of those students will figure out how to make a useful large scale flow battery? I have solar, and the missing piece is being able to store electricity for the winter.

Perhaps the person who figures it out learned something from a project like this?
> Make your initial grammar SUPER simple.

I would go further and say don't write a parser at first, unless what's novel and interesting about your language is it's syntax. Use the configuration language of your choice (like TOML or YAML) to write your ASTs directly, so you can focus on writing the runtime/backend and playing with the semantics of your language (where the novelty probably is).

When you feel it's the appropriate time, you can circle back to the frontend and implement a parser. But if you're writing a DSL, a config language may well be good enough. An additional bonus is that your config language syntax will make it easier to write certain unit tests.

I've had several experiments in writing a new language, and the first few times I got completely bogged down in parsing. I learned a lot about parsing, which is great, but it made it difficult for me to get at the meat of a project.
Try finding any evidence that Russia wants to expand its federation into Europe.

Ukraine is in Europe, last we checked, and Putin is openly seeking to expand the Federation's borders there as we speak.

They don't need any more land.

The regime's core delusion is that it needs a "sphere of privileged influence" (in its own words) over former Soviet republics, and Eastern Slavic peoples in particular. And that it has a right to assert control over pretty much any piece of land the Russian Empire has ever sat on for any length of time, as it sees fit.

And the irony about decent hardware is that all have decent hardware from the past 10-15 years, only the software that is crap on garbage and can't use hardware that could have been excellent mainframes some decades ago in some secret nuclear research laboratory.

Someone needs to figures out how to take my money and distribute them to people working on actually valuable stuff.
