I have an LG OLED C1 65" and the Vision Pro movie experience is nearly the same as the TV, except that you have to deal with all the lens glare in the Vision Pro, which is a big downside. An upside is that films like Encanto are in 3D, which looks really good for Pixar/CGI movies and pretty garbage for every other movie I've tried in the headset (for me, real films with 3D look like paper cut outs layered over each other and it's very distracting and looks lame).

But a nice 65" OLED TV is still cheaper than a Vision Pro, so I can't recommend it unless you are in a situation where you literally cannot put a big OLED TV in your space, or you're desperate to take your OLED TV with you on flights.

I also have a Quest 3 and without OLED for true HDR, it loses right away, and then it loses further on resolution. Audio quality is really good on Quest 3, but... If I really wanted to use a headset to watch a movie, I would use the Vision Pro, hands down. If I only had the Quest 3 on hand, I wouldn't watch a movie.
No, from Super PACS (they were the Citizens United in _Citizens United_) to gerrymandering the Republicans do it first and worst. It's not even close. It's nice to think "both sides" but it's misinformed.
I don't know about SwiftData, but my experience with SwiftUI is great. I've put a EU-sized project into production and it wasn't a problem at all.

In my experience, the trick is making small tested and working views, and combine these into fullly-fledged screens.
I actually have one for this! Last week I had something really specific - a GeoTIFF image where each pixel represents the speed in "x" direction of the ice sheet surface in Antarctica and I wanted to get the derivative of that velocity field so I could look at the strain rate of the ice.

A common way to do that is to use a Savitzky-Golay filter [0], which does a similar thing - it can smooth out data and also provide smooth derivatives of the input data. It looks like this post's technique can also do that, so maybe it'd be useful for my ice strain-rate field project.

It might be easy to build pumped storage in Boulder City, NV, situated among mountains near the Hoover dam. It would be much harder to build something similar near Houston, TX, where the land is flat as a table.
> Even the base example would make that specific scenario trivial: an account that is new has no business "being better" than everyone else.

You cannot and should not rely on that, depending on what account really means, e.g. in ioquake3 games, having a new GUID (you delete a specific file to get a new one) makes you a new player.
SwiftUI’s problems are due to Swift in one respect. The way Swift’s type inference works plays very badly with SwiftUI view builders leading to very long compile times and many cases in which the compiler will just give up entirely and you’re left randomly commenting out bits of code.

That this is the best the richest company in the world can do with the API to their most valuable product is quite astonishing.
Yes, cache has a much lower power density and could have been a candidate for that space.

But I wasn’t on the design team and have no basis for second-guessing them. I’m just saying that cramming more performance CPU cores onto this die isn’t a realistic option.
It's an extra year of your kids at home, and potentially trips abroad. We couldn't afford the trip to France during my TY, so I skipped the trip, but did TY. While this was the '90s and my parents didn't earn enough to pay income tax, they were able to afford it for both myself and my sister, and I don't think they regret it for either of us.
I was quite hopeful for this refresh to upgrade my Oasis but it looks as though they've regressed on weight: 188g for my current Oasis vs 211g for the Paperwhite. The new entry level kindle is indeed lighter but unfortunately lacks a warm light. I hope something else will be on the horizon!
That's useful. Can it generate a simple filter for later real-time use, based on the statistics of the noise? That would be useful for self-tuning controllers.

Off topic question. Can a large nuclear reactor be completely air-cooled? I think a full-scale reactor cluster expelling hot jet upwards and providing air conditioning in form of negative static pressure to its surrounding megalopolis would be very cyberpunk.

Kind of. Even when their mind is made up, they're likely to try to answer (since the framing places them on a pedestal). Both you and the doctor will notice anything obviously wrong with the answer. I've met a few young doctors who would dig in their heels (different from explaining why they're right; if they're actually right and teach me why then I think that was an incredibly valuable opportunity), but you ought to, in most parts of the world, be able to fire them and find somebody actually willing to talk to you. Almost all of the time I meet doctors who handle the framework I set out exceptionally.

Your pork/ham comment is interesting. For other toxins/allergens/..., I see doctors very explicitly examining every possible extra ingredient/factor before even deigning to consider that the bulk solid might matter (e.g., most chocolate allergies are actually to soy lecithin or one of the other mixins). I'm surprised anyone would rule out a ham problem just because they tested one kind of pork.
Yes, the WaPo and NYT both reported that Mossad spent a fair amount of time eavesdropping on the communications between these two devices.

The eavesdropping played a significant role in the decision to detonate the devices.
That's disappointing. Rumors were 300 ppi for the color screen.
I loved my kindle paperwhite so much. I have a case on it all the time, there is not a single scratch on my kindle. One day, out of the blue, the touch screen stopped working. it is unresponsive to any touch, I've soft reset it, hard reset it, googled everything. Apparently its a common thing in amazon forum, and of course what does amazon support say? just buy a new one. At this point my kindle is only 2.5 years old and I'm pissed.

I've bought an ipad since and just read book from my ipad. at least my old ipad doesn't break even after 8 years

Short:

The Halide app added a new setting called Process Zero. Once the mode is switched on, the camera does as little processing as possible, avoiding artificial-intelligence optimization and any other dramatic editing of the photo. (It still performs basic tasks like correcting the white balance and lens distortion.)
NPUs are efficient, not especially fast. The CPU is much bigger than the NPU and has better cache access. Of course it'll perform better.
Depends on the content, but some disc rips, some ytdl, some internal corporate stuff that I just hit Save As. The nice thing about the Quest, it is pretty much just a computer so lots of formats can get played (and you can even just copy files to the filesystem in a format the e.g. BigscreenVR or other video player apps can read)

I've never looked at any Rust. But this mini thread leaves me expecting the Rust world to be like Perl. The experienced Rust/Perl user uses every feature and short cut for magnificently dense expressive (alt. incomprehensible gibberish to anyone else) and doesn't comment it because the code is self evident. When actually they just want to code wank showing how clever they are and how lazy anyone else is if they haven't take the time to understand the details and thus understand.

But like I said, I've not looked at any Rust despite its marketing success.
Typst is a huge improvement over LaTeX, but makes the rather anachronistic decision to target paper-based media instead of screens. Unless you're planning to print out all your papers onto physical paper, and you have stacks of different sized paper lying around (A4, US Letter, US Legal, etc.), PDFs are kind of old-fashioned. Why constrain your document's width to eight and half twelfths of the length of some medieval king's foot, when we have cutting-edge 1980s technology like HTML which can adapt to your screen width?

Incidentally, there's an open issue with Typst for making HTML output, but I don't understand why that wasn't the project's first priority. Even if scientific journals require PDF uploads, you can still get those from printing HTML. The opposite isn't true at all.
>getting cmd-style shortcuts so you don’t have to deal with the how-is-this-still-a-thing-in-2024 problem of conflicting shortcuts in terminals

I can play that game.

Let me know when Mac gets rid of their stupid useless apple and function keys that is somehow still a thing in 2024, to where you have to bend your pinky unnaturally to get to the apple key, and even more so to the control key instead of just combining them in a single key like the rest of the modern world.

And that just the start of it.

Unless I misunderstood, I do not see how this would actually work in practice considering the client can be modified and I can send whatever I want to the server, i.e. spoofing.
That's awesome. I'd appreciate that honestly. I tried to keep it very approachable.

See Go is a procedural language like C, that's why I was gonna rewrite it in C once I had my design down. I felt like C++ was the best choice and what I wanted to truly continue with so I bit the bullet and committed with C++. I'm glad I did. As like you it's been awhile since I wrote C++ everyday or read it everyday but I do enjoy it. Very broad language, many ways to do things so, lots of research involved.
ooooh neat, I'll check it out. Thanks
That's not really how TY works in Ireland. It's about broadening horizons, not "extracurriculars".

Third level admissions have been done via a points system based on your top six Leaving Certificate (final second level exam) results for decades. It's an impersonal system, but at least fairer than most.

I won't buy a device with cameras slapped all over it either. But anyone fearmongering over this has not thought through what it would take to do this at scale and really consider how this is worthwhile over existing tracking methods. The amount of compute required to squeeze useful targeting data out of hours of video is just not cost-effective compared to the plentiful data from your activity on a phone or laptop. In all your examples, the same signal would be visible from online activity that is practically guaranteed to be there.
> And you have full access to ~/.ssh and you can move copy update rename delete them however you like.

I think this comes down to me never having wanted to do a copy or move (I create and maintain new keys when I create new devices) which is exactly the same experience i get with a passkey (and is, generally a more secure experience since my keys cannot be exfiltrated since copying them is implicitly verboten).
Very cool, but a bit less practical than some alternatives because it does not seem to do request transcription.
Mysterious Craters Discovered on the Bottom of Lake Michigan
>I'm treated like a paranoiac for merely inquiring about certain possibilities like so-called SIBO

Yes, as my GE dismissively smiling told me "we all would like to chug burgers like we did in our youth, wouldn't we?". So talking and describing in details doesn't help much. What helps is if you're on PPO or similar insurance, so the doctor is easy to order tests, whatever you like from like the 20-items list - CAT, genetics, ... . The tests are the key. For SIBO you may get the hydrogen breath test - it is a very simple one - and watch the numbers that the nurse will record from the machine - it will help you understand the situation better. And just like with many other GE issues, getting diagnosed is just half of the journey though. Second is getting it to treat which is again can be a long one (there is a lot of recommendations in this thread - i've tried many of them and they do improve the situation somewhat, nothing though completely solves it for me. I though found some regimen for me which so far made it almost gone. Like many describe - observe and act accordingly.) Btw, just to illustrate the complexity/interdependencies - kind of like in large enterprise software - one of the side effects of SIBO i've got is anemia, discovered accidentally by looking at blood tests results done for something else (again looking into specific numbers yourself seems to be the key as the doctors said nothing) - as SIBO impedes B12 intake, and with B12 and iron supplements i've got my physical abilities back which at the time strangely went down when i started to get tired and running out of breath somewhat quickly for no apparent reason.
Jesus, why wont they just leave us alone.

My antipathy stems from my lack of understanding, I freely admit, but it's a lack of understanding that's despite some modicum of intelligence.

I feel I can take a password and print it on paper, memorize it, save it on a USB stick, tell it to my wife. I feel in control with passwords. Nobody owns them but me.

Passkeys feel like a wild wild WILD west of providers and islands and standards. It feels like if I sign up to a website on my iPhone creating a pass key, it is a nontrivial amount of work and even less trivial amount of knowledge to transfer it to my android tablet or windows pc. Or maybe that's not even a thing and really I need to resign up on those devices? Or i need to authenticate a second device with my first one? So if I sign up to website 1 with my phone and website 2 with my tablet and website 3 with my laptop,if I want to access all of those from all my devices, I now have a fun weekend of syncing or something?

And I have no idea how to help my mother inlaw with it unless it's some "create Icloud and trust apple and pray " system.

More than anything, you prove my and disprove gp's point that passwords are not necessarily always going to be an option for all sites and services. In fact it feels everybody is yelling in my face that passwords are gone and this half baked complex system will be the only thing.

I think the other side of the chemical plant job is that the salary is higher than a college grad would get from the plant itself out of college.

Nobody at the chemical would ever pay a college grad VP^h^h consultant salary to work there.

It the English "safety" and "security" referring to specific properties and concepts... but wildly different ones between sentences. Like its all 2009 again and we are hoping we avoided XSS when we picked the appropriate quote/encode/escape method.
Very, very interesting--I have always assumed I inherited my mother's issues. Docs have done stool tests, nothing--but as it says they are prone to false negatives. The labs aren't good with the rare stuff. I almost certainly came down with malaria but made the "mistake" of going to the doc my wife worked with. GP, but he did work with DWB and had plenty of clinical experience with malaria. Labs come back a week later--they weren't set up to do the simple swab he ordered and substituted the closest thing they had which wasn't close at all. Came back "negative" so I'm not in the CDC data. The thing is I'm pretty sure of the initial infection point--20+ years earlier. At the time, three rounds of it before I got back to the states and talked to a tropical medicine guy. No symptoms at the time so he wasn't sure what he did would get it all. Never actually lab-diagnosed by the fever pattern is obvious and it responded to chloroquine but I was in an area with some resistance and couldn't take the right drug.

Do you know anybody else who does this sort of thing?
Have you tried Coalton? It's a Common Lisp library that adds Haskell-esque (or near-Haskell) type wonders, and which smoothly interoperates with your Common Lisp code.

Your comment is great though, consider me convinced. I've done a bit of messing with Lisp, but really would like to try write something in Haskell, or slog through a book or two, some day.
The Yubico FAQ explains some of the history fairly well: https://www.yubico.com/blog/a-yubico-faq-about-passkeys/

In particular, they distinguish between "copyable" and "hardware-bound" passkeys. They're both passkeys, and can be used wherever passkeys are supported, but only the "hardware-bound" passkeys support attestation.
> Another example: while C# has polymorphized generics, it checks them at compile time! The generics are not monomorphized like C++ or Rust, which allows smaller linked libraries that you can load and use at runtime, which is not possible in C++ templates or Rust generics. The trade-off is then that generics can't be checked until runtime - but actually no. The C# compiler will go out of its way to check generics when it can and will fail if they don't meet the type constraints, just like C++ or Rust.

Generics are not monomorphized at bytecode level, but whenever generic argument is a struct, the methods and types that have it are monomorphized at the stage of compiling to machine code, be it with JIT or ILC. This is identical to Rust, and is why C# has "zero-cost" abstractions.

Method bodies and types for class-type generic arguments are indeed shared however. Dispatch on generic constraints is still quite efficient in that case, even if no longer zero-cost (unless the compiler is able to see the exact type and inline such calls, or emit a guarded devirtualized fast-path when compiled by JIT, or prove that only few types implement a particular interface or subclass a specific parent when compiled by NativeAOT).
I have a pretty old paperwhite. When it started deleting books i had side-loaded via calibre, I decided to get a kobo. I have a libra color, and I have to say: price notwithstanding, it's a great device. I don't have a lot of experience with more recent devices, but compared to my 2nd gen paperwhite, it is _amazing_.

Color is good enough to read comic books on it, the google drive integration means it's not too hard to get my CBR/CBZ files on directly. The annotation / notetaking featureas are nice (I haven't leaned into them yet, but they work well even on the small screen size), plus all the regular stuff with normal book reading. Also, since it's kobo/rakuten, the libby integration is better (search and select library books right from the device).

The actual reading app is maybe 90% as good as reading on the kindle (or a more specialized reader like perfectviewer on android). There's some annoyingly fiddly features- font size is kind of weirdly variable, when going through CBR files there's no "read next in the folder" gesture nor is there a "this is read/unread" state in the google drive ui, so you always have to remember which book you are finishing when opening the next in the series.

I tried out one of those boox readers with the android apps, which would be even better software-wise, but the boox hardware seems like garbage (for an N=1 at least). My display came with several rows of stuck pixels, and apparently it's a good thing that I ordered from amazon instead of the boox store, because the reviews indicate getting an RMA from boox directly is a pain.
Air doesn't have much thermal mass, so you'd have to move a lot of air through the heat exchangers to make it work. It's probably possible, but there's much more viable alternatives.

Once Starlink is fully built out, if we get to the point that enough downlink stations are out of commission that the entire network fails, amateur radio will be of no use because we're looking at an extinction-sized meteor strike, global thermonuclear war, or similar event.

In those cases amateur radio will be only useful for saying goodbye to all of your frequent QSOs before the tidal wave hits your location in Denver.

And the quant selection is nice too. I'd initially wondered why the title was worth announcing, since I've been feeding ollama arbitrary ggufs for a while, but that required writing a (trivial one-line) Modelfile so this is a nice improvement.

I'd been researching Kalman filters to smooth out some sampling values (working on mobile: anything from accelerometer values to voice activation detection), but hadn't got around to revising the mathematics, so I appreciate the explanation. Out of curiosity, what other ways might this be achieved? I haven't seen much else beyond Kalman filters.
