This is alarming. Even mild COVID-19 can cause cognitive damage, but none of the participants in this study noticed it in themselves.

Many people may suffer silently from memory and other problems after COVID-19 infection without noticing it. Living in a silent desperation when things are not going as well as they used to.
Jony Ive Confirms Involvement in AI Hardware Project with OpenAI
The people I mentioned in my comment clearly disagree with you, and frankly they have more of an incentive to be well informed about the situation. See the twitter link I posted to your comment's sibling for Ethan Lee's impressions from three years ago.

Also, I never argued against Proton having been a boon for Linux gamers, but I tried to present an opposing point of view that usually does not get taken into account.

Like I mentioned in the other comment my impression over the past 3-4 years is that the number of native linux ports has dwindled to nothing and that is most likely due to Proton making them unnecessary.
All of this already exists on Windows. They're already drop in DLL replacements that smooth out compatibility with older versions of graphics APIs among other APIs. And old support for old games actually isn't that bad on Windows 11. No one has heard of this game, but I could just boot up the old Japanese PC game Abyss Boat and it kind of just works. If I use a DLL replacement or something like dxwnd or dgvoodoo2 it's even better.
Living in European cities with multimodal transportations, what I fear the most are cyclists. Cars drive on very clearly delimited space, respect the driving code quite properly and are visible and audible from far away.

Bicycles on the other hands drive fast, both on road and pedestrian ways with a sense of entitlement that they somehow have priority over pedestrians. They are also harder to spot. My worst fear when walking in the city are those Uber Eats guys riding huge electrical bike and going as fast as possible. An impact with that is a sure way to hospital if not worse.
Acceptance of data collection should have very high standards. Like written signature after recording of going over all of the terms read out loud. This is only way to be sufficiently sure that consent is freely given.
> If you want remote work then you need a very different kind of employment contract. (One that specifies concrete deliverables, not time owed.)

We're a remote heavy company and we don't have that type of contract, and it all works really well.

So no, you don't need it.

I was thinking on the same lines but with improvements towards running local models is right around the corner. Unless someone has specific usecase or proprietary models, this may not make sense. But in current situation, that would be a great thing to standardise communication between various llms and clients

The problem is that "increased speed" was also "one of those possible future scenarios with 5G". (And with 4G FWIW)
But most indie founders really do not want to have a big team or have a VC with their own incentives. And that is very valid. Many people put value in other things than seeking maximum growth. "small growth" or earning enough to be financially independent is good enough for a lot of people.
This is a pretty good weekly roundup of art-related developments:

I realised my previous comment lacked some context and was adding to it but then saw you replied, so I’ll address it here instead.

There is a large difference between not valuing something and devaluing it. The former is neutral, it does not care what people engage in within the boundaries of not causing harm; the latter is actively against something and tries to stop people from doing it (we can say it is intolerant to it).

I’m not aware of an example of someone having been neutral on gender identity in the “the project”¹ and having been made unwelcome. But I’m not a Pythonista myself, so I’m not intimately aware of the internals. Could you share a concrete example? Preferably one that includes some degree of community support, not just the ramblings of a single individual, as the latter would not be representative.

¹ It’s unclear what you’re referring to. The PSF? The Pyhon language core? The Python community?

I think for many Europeans, we 100% know that these changes are thanks to the EU: GDPR, right to be forgotten, right to repair, etc.

I think it's some people from the outside (i.e. the US) who are absolutely anti-government but pro corporations-as-a-government which can't see that a for-profit company is like a wheel: it needs a stick for it to go straight.
Makes sense and that's for three detailed answer. May put that one on the list of things to play with in the future.

I think because of levels of abstraction of software/pltforms, top layers are bound to have « bloat ». Unless someone( something) changes radically across the stack, I think bloat will just increase for each layer
I don't know, do these the majority of these companies actually rely heavily on free contributions?

Personally I would rather buy a product where there is "fair source" available but premium features were paid for than a completely closed source product. That's my perspective. I do think it's tough when amazon comes and takes a code base that consists of mostly (say) elastic co employee code but is open source and then competes with elastic on the basis that they don't have to pay the software developers. It's really rubbish capitalism, and something needs to be available to protect any company that pays developers to build an open source product/business.

Otherwise we end up back at open source developers not getting paid, and that's not good for anyone.
What the law says is one thing. What actually gets enforced is another. There is almost 0 probability of any consequences for a driver in NY who kills a cyclist, regardless of whose fault the incident was, as long as the driver doesn’t flee from the scene.

This is a common reaction to a pervasive phenomenon

Reading is one way people encounter ideas and learn, and so some people who read have a broad worldview and have absorbed the insights from books

People start to notice this, or perhaps those people attribute some other success to reading books. Enough association of this kind makes reading books high-status

Many people want to short-circuit this process to get status, so they optimize for reading a lot of books, or sometimes fake reading books

People who fake reading books for status are shown ridiculous when exposed

People who are allergic to and resent status nonsense conclude that bookshelves mean someone's a poser

This is obviously ridiculous. Many people have bookshelves because they simply need to store some books

The error committed here is, to me, a common one, overfocusing on the most salient case. I agree that it's icky when people do shit like fill shelves with books they've never and will never read as a status symbol. But are we really to assume that this is the most common reason to have a bookshelf? Or is it just the reason to which you have the strongest reaction, and thus stands out the most to you as a hypothesis?

With some additional information about a person, one might be able to conclude this given the bookshelf, but it hardly seems like enough evidence to come to this conclusion by itself
Absolutely. Thanks for the highlighting! Edit: It's a two-in-one good news afaiac: China withdrawing funding(/influence) and some sort of accountability applied to mega projects rather than just throwing (and eventually devaluing) more and more money at things.
Do you mean bookshelves as in the place where you put books before, during, and after reading them, or bookshelves as in the online habit of sharing what you've read?

I agree that the latter is self-congratulatory but I don't see why you'd object to the former.
Ask HN: What would be your definition of theoretical computer science?
I personally have always had a very philosophical and logical approach to theoretical computer science, that reality in its absolute sense would in fact be a logical circuit. Do you think like me that the universe and all its complexity could be recreated by a Turing machine?
Yes, super-recent developments may obviate hills, but 40 years of city design have already happened. The Netherlands case was easy mode, and they leaned into it while extending their cities. That's not useful for almost any other country.

Also e-bikes are expensive and heavy, of course, so they're a good gentrification measure, if you're into that sort of thing, but they aren't for everyone.
Unfortunately, no. When you reverse the polarity, the adhesive is left on the housing instead of the battery. iFixit has shown it in a video [0].

> Then the market decide.

The problem as always is power imbalance. Big corporates have a lot of mechanisms to skew the power to their side. Employees have much fewer. That is why employees eventually form unions, because then they can organise as a counter balance against the machinery of big corporates.
It's about time our national infrastructure benefitted from foreign taxpayer money, considering how often it's been the other way around! Especially with the railways.
If that was how Apple behaved, it would actually excusable but it did oh so many things which make absolutely no sense other than "business sense". Why did they have to use some super strong glue for their batteries when a tape or a set of screws did the job in the past? Why use some screws from hell which take 1 wrong twist to mess up? Why require 10 pressure points to be pressed at the same time with thin clamps normally not available to anyone?

Nobody really complains about parts having to be changed completely because they are too minuterized: that's the price of having a tiny form factor, we get that. But it's all the BS around it, which often was shown to work just fine in the past, that irks many about Apple's practices.
> In the USA maybe.

Yet in the US, due to tipping, it can be (and generally is in most more affluent areas) considerably better paid and lucrative than pretty much anywhere else.

Also I'm not sure what are you saying is generally true at all in most places (unless we're talking about a specific subset of restaurants).
Woodworking is a popular hobby where it's possible.

Maven (and pretty much every other build tool with the exception of bazel) is not capable enough for such a complex build as is required for android, though. E.g. maven can often “lose” that something requires a rebuild, and only clean build will produce the correct artifacts. Gradle can always keeps track of tasks correctly.

My tip is adding hot spare disks so you don't have to replace broken ones.

I suppose we had cloud long enough to allow for people that never had a datacenter think this is a good idea?

I managed a tier 2 datacenter for some 4 years. Fire risk alone still gives me anxiety.

“Cloud It’s more expensive stupid!” Yeah… you know what’s way more expensive? People.

People and processes you’ll have to manage to achieve SLAs like Amazon’s? Well, good look with that. If you manage to find the people please write a book about how you achieved the process.

Oh, and new services on top of that every time a new technology appears? With the SLA and the consistent quality?

And the hardware, the building, the never ending decay of physical things. The drives for gods sake. The never ending pursuing of storage space.

The enterprise premium for hardware, that you’ll pay to have the manufacturer saving your ass. And please don’t think your employees will let you touch the fancy open source or community versions of things. You’ll blink and you’ll be paying the premium (and thanking the vendor for the option), because the risk won’t let you sleep.

And the most amazing part: business in you heels demanding innovation, quality, uptime and… change.

Four years, 10 years ago and my palms just got sweat thinking about that.

Your company is lucky that someone is willing to receive money to do that for you. And luckier yet that this company can do that very well. So well in fact that is very easy to forget how well they do that.

Prigogine 212-213 explicitly mentions groups vs. semigroups! (and here, too, JvN has left footprints. Et in arcadia is.)

The difference, of course, being that in semigroups we can "fall" inescapably from one J-class to another, but in groups every* element is in the same eggbox (compare transitivity with Boethius and the Wheel of Fortune).

It's useful to have as a resource that you can dip into; for instance to check a specific thing like "how fast do I metabolise caffeine (bad example as youc can get that from a SNV checking service like 23&Me. However, never ever EVER dump your whole genome into a program that will output every match for some potential condition. Now that's not for the reason you might immediately think ("Oh no look at all the bad stuff"), but rather because the databases that tools like this use are pretty chock full of junk where some researcher threw in a reference - along with a few thousand others - to say that their particular piece of research implicates this gene at this poistion with this variant. I've seen it with my own eyes, and a lot of it is very low quality. You therefore need highly curated databases where the genotype-phenotype associations are well-defined and thoroughly researched. You'll spend the rest of your life either trying to prove/disprove every potential false positive, or just worrying yourself needlessly. So, yeah, it's not a bad resource to have if you can be responsible with it.
Didn't you put yourself in that situation?
Silly argument, Vulkan also isn't available on Xbox or Playstation, yet dedicated game console platforms clearly care a lot about gaming.

There's also only a handful of Vulkan games, supporting D3D11 and D3D12 on macOS would make a lot more sense. But in reality, porting to a different 3D API isn't what makes or breaks a game port.
From a European perspective, I would never suggest making information about individuals public, not even criminals. Even though where I am from, we seem to swing to far in the other direction when it comes to protecting the rights of perpetrators vs. the victim's rights, I think registries of any kind in that regard are a big mistake.

Nevertheless, it should be possible to set higher standards for corporate communication than for individuals. I am thinking about this more in terms of markets and information asymmetry than personal liberties. I think it is fine when corporations are required to publish what they are doing. There is room to improve how mandatory disclaimers work and for what they are required.

Why would you do this instead of having the hardware at your house? For better/faster connection?
I disagree, to an extent as you created a dichotomy between tech and religious arguments. The truth is there is a spectrum, where a compiler error is a purely technical discussion. On the other hand of the spectrum are loosely related to tech like, "I need to see more from you before we tackle bigger changes".

Open source is definitely very political and if you are not political you will find you will produce lots of technical output that will never be merged. There is also lots of etiquette that can go to using mailing list and patchset formatting to knowing who to ask to review. When you talk about design changes you better have credibility, as your design might not even be evaluated if you do not have a track record. I really disagree with your comment and in my experience with lots of OSS different projects i contributed to, i can tell you politics is equal or more important than raw technical competence the bigger the project is.
> There are a lot of positives with working from home but dont forget about the wider repercussions

The issue I have with that type of argument is you're moralising on causing harm to one group of people to limit harm to another group.

Who gets to decide how do do that?

And then you could also moralise by saying the commuting causes huge amounts of pollutants which cause actual harm to people's health. And the stress of the commute. And the lack of family time. Etc.

I don’t have a link handy but I was just reading that broccoli can speed up caffeine metabolism!

Overview of cross-architecture portability problems
For some Europeans, certainly, but, well, see Brexit. For instance, remember the outrage about the reintroduction of roaming charges within the EU by British mobile providers? Or the current scandal in the UK over the pesticide residue limits on imported fruit and vegetables being, in some cases, _hundreds_ of times higher than they were under Europe.

A lot of people seem to have been genuinely surprised that these things didn't just happen by magic, they happened due to EU regulation.
Yes, I know, 999 was what we called.

So how it works, unfortunately, is that GPs get a lot of pressure to not do things "just in case". But "just in case" is the only way you can notice things that are wrong on a deeper level.

What, for example, is "back pain"? In 90% of the cases this can be fixed by, say, 10 sessions with a physio. But sometimes it can mean something serious, like a spinal disk injury.

Or sleepiness. 98% of that can be fixed with lifestyle and diet changes. But sometimes this can a sympthom of something scary.

Or my wife's example: didn't feel quite right for 3-4 weeks then fainted. Turned out to be serious. The full GP discussion would have taken weeks.

Or my friend's example: increasing numbness, nothing serious at first. Major brain infection. The GP actively tried to downplay things.

I don't know if there is a solution to this. Right now it feels that without chatgpt-assisted self-diagnoses and being aggressive with getting over the GP wall the system tries to avoid helping out.
AGPL or other copyleft licences don't stop amazon taking "your" product and hosting it for less than your own hosted offering as they don't have to pay the developers.

"Then it shouldn't be open source" - Yes, true and I agree. But source available, with a bit of a community in github/discord and opportunity to host the code yourself free for small use cases, read the code and raise PRs is WAY BETTER than a fully closed source product. How do we standardise that in a similar way we have done with open source licenses?

> their whole country is far too vast for European design.

That's not really true though. There is no particular reason to think of the vast almost empty spaces when thinking about urban and suburban spaces. There are plenty of walkable towns in the US, the problem is that there are vastly more towns that are not. I spent quite a lot of time in Raleigh NC and the surroundings in the 1990s and early 2000s and walked and cycled everywhere. There were a lot more roads to cross than in Malmö of course but it was still quite reasonable.

One need not be forced to implement good urban design, one merely needs to want it.

And I would also say that most towns in Sweden are not really very typical of European towns, even Norway next (where I live) is different. Sweden has a lot more space available than most European countries and in fact has an average population density (25/km2) lower than that of the US (33/km2).
I'm looking forward to the discussion of the classic design and layout. I think its cool! High info density, no overuse of white space. And fast too!
