Sitting further back from a bigger screen provides the same field of view as sitting close to a smaller display, and may have less eye strain.
@richardzhang what is the relationship between taiki and integuru? is this a pivot?
Why? Google also partners with Broadcom for TPU.
Probably not better than the best stuff the military has... Still really good, mind.

And, yeah, unintended uses are usually prime locations for security breaches. For a long time (maybe still?) metadata on pictures that people post would reveal far more than people meant. Thumbnails of cropped pictures, even.

You are attributing arguments to people which they never made. The most lenient of open source licenses require a simple citation, which the "A.I." never provides. Your tone comes off as pretty condescending, in my opinion. My summary of what you wrote: "I know they violated your license, but too bad! You're not as important as you think!"
The relative cost is probably a factor (which overlaps with inertia of course, but if the thing you already have implemented is also cheaper, you aren't going to hurry up and change).

Staying obese into old age carries risks. There are multiple ways to manage that risk. None of it is as exigent as other conditions.

Universally? No.
The example he's chosen is of a ridiculously sized TV. 65" is living room TV size.

There are smaller, OLED displays that would be more suitable(while still rather big). Many are 'just' 4k, but the smaller sizes should give one a decent pixel size.

Many OLED monitors and TVs already do this, it's called pixel shifting.

> Computing f(0)=0; f(n)=f(n-1) is O(n log n) without tail calls because you need O(log n) addresses to hold your stack frames.

There are two principal ways of applying asymptotic analysis to algorithms: time or memory used. In both, your procedure is O(n) without TCO. With TCO it is O(n) for runtime (though further optimization would reduce it to O(1) since it's just the constant function 0, but TCO alone doesn't get us there) and O(1) for space since it would reuse the same stack frame.

What O(log n) addresses do you need to hold the stack frames when there are O(n) stack frames needing O(n) addresses (without TCO, which, again, reduces it to O(1) for memory)?

Also, regarding "without tail calls", your example already has tail calls. What do you mean by that?
For sailboat racing I care about “micrometeorology” - e.g. things like which of two slightly different courses only 1/10th of a mile apart to the same destination will be windier 45 minutes from now?

Amazingly, these models are starting to be able to actually predict that, but I agree that not a lot of people care about that level of detail.
This post mentions "Voice AI" ten times, but doesn't once explain what that's referring to. A quick web search leads me to https://voice.ai as the first result. Is that what you're talking about?

The discussion is you comparing the overturn of a law to overturn of Roe v Wade. The weight is completely irrelevant because we’re discussing the difficulty of the action.

Anyone who knows basic federal government structure in the US knows court rulings are significantly easier to move quickly compared to passing real laws.

This isn’t “playing semantics”, it completely invalidates your point. Look at how well overturning obama care went to see how difficult law passing is.
That is because the advice around eating less is focused on old paradigms that have clearly failed.

Those drugs let people experience intermittent fasting and fasting by reducing hunger and snacking.

The danger of suppressing hunger signals is that hunger could've been a important que for nutritional needs.

Muscle loss is severe danger of gpl-1, And muscle size is tied to longevity.

So although promising it's not without danger. And there are other paradigms but those are not yet explored yet the underlying mechanisms work the same.

New release of Microsoft Cascadia Code coding/terminal font
Yet another example of the power of Prizes....the authors mention that they were motivated by a $500 prize offered to students by a math volunteer at their high school.

What is so counter-intuitive to me is that if the authors had wanted to earn $500 (or $250 after splitting it) they could have just got a job at McDonalds. They would have earned that money with far less time and effort.

I'm kinda glad that nobody pointed that out to them though :-)

But Prize-awards seems to put us into an entirely different economic frame. You can't say they did it just for the recognition, because if the prize wasn't there they wouldn't have bothered. But you also can't say that they did it for the money, because the money was ludicrously low--even when valued at the rate of unskilled labor.

The skill tree depends on awful lot on what you care about, and don't assume that western "high tech" solutions are the best, because they're the most complicated.

From a "Built out of locally available resources, with minimum energy, and robust repairability," it's hard to beat a scythe or other similar tool.

And I guarantee a well built scythe will still work, if tolerably cared for, long past the last of our over-complicated tractors rusting in fields because the right software to update the firmware to allow you to start the engine after changing the oil was trying to talk to some server that no longer exists...

Ugh this is the only read-it-later service I ever found that "stuck". It was so simple and good. This sucks.

I've encountered several people in recent days and weeks who no longer quite remember how blatant Trump's efforts to falsify the election results actually were.

I was born in 1974 - no US president (or plausible candidate for president) has ever before done something so manifestly disqualifying. I've never made a comment like the above about any of them.

It's not like he was "demanding signature matching for votes to see if there was in fact any fraud". He threatened the Georgia state attorney general, and demanded he and his colleagues there find a way to falsify the election results.

It's thankfully a simple matter of public record, so if you don't remember the details, you can go and listen to the recordings again[1].

Nice, I use Hyper Term Theme. I'll have to check out the one you mentioned.
Maybe it's a rectangle between:

Wondering. Since the seniors pair with LLMs, world needs much less juniors. Some juniors will go away to other industries, but some might start projects in new languages without LLM/business support.

Frankly, otherwise I don't see how any new lang corpus might get created.

Just got a 32" 4k. I had a 49" 4k in the past, but it broke. My issue with monitors above 49" is it strains the eyes and head looking around. I always had to partition the screen or manually resize, it got annoying. Gonna try 1 4k for landscape and 1 for portrait now.

>And of course it's a ratchet. Nobody turns it off even as the pandemic normalizes.

I guess as long as even some small portion of the population always tips when the option is presented- they don't really have an incentive to turn it off. Like rejecting free money when your competitors aren't. I think for any reasonable attempt to stop these kinds of practices it really has to be stigmatized on the cultural level for people to feel some revulsion when asked for a tip in an inappropriate situation. If there was no option on the processor they'd probably just leave out a tip jar or continue to ask for it in an awkward and roundabout way ie hanging around waiting for you to get some cash out after the transaction is complete.
I'm not saying that I necessarily agree, but the general consensus on HN seems to be that Broadcom is now less of a tech company and more of a holding company that raids others, for example VMWare, and extracts all value to the detriment of customers and the acquired company.

I don't think that's completely wrong, but it's a big company and I'm sure there are some better areas of the company than others.

I'm not sure, but what I've read is that there's a loss of grain associated with using the scythe on wheat when it falls on the ground. Maybe it's a concern in some areas.

But I think that with a proper apparel such as the one we see in the video on the website, the fall can be made gentler while still keeping the significant efficiency gain that the scythe offers over the sickle.

Why not make this rigorous and actually quantify how similar proofs are? I assume this could be done.
I kind-of would like to see a POSIX-strict profile which incorporates commonsense (by commonsense I mean avoiding things that repeatedly over many years have tripped up programmers in frustrating ways) things like no newline in file names. Operating systems (or distributions) or could opt into this profile, and then someone programming on such an operating system could rely on the constraints of the profile and additional facilities could be added on that might need to rely on those constraints. Hopefully, gradually the use of the profile would spread.
Can confirm, you absolutely need BetterDisplay and a tiny bit of elbow grease to configure the 5k clone to downscale to your real monitor. Not rocket science, but could be more streamlined.

If you say it looks fine without it, I don't know what to say.

I doubt cell phone batteries are a significant part of the battery waste stream, compared to EV and utility scale batteries. If they only went back to phones with easily swappable batteries and used a commodity form factor, most users would probably prioritize energy density over cycle life.
The big players are saying small-scale production in 2026-2027, mass production in 2027-2028.[1] The US efforts are tiny startups, but CATL alone has 1,000 people on solid-state battery R&D. Toyota has a big effort.[2] Nissan is building a pilot plant.[3] Samsung is showing prototypes.[4]

They're still not here, though. Not even small expensive ones. Military laptops, power tools, and aircraft would use them regardless of cost. When we start seeing some small products with huge energy storage, it's real.

>> Like I asked, where's our cutoff?

Cool. How about cancer treatment? Some of those you can live with for some months/years. We allowed to treat anyway when the outcomes are better?

> Staying obese into old age carries risks. There are multiple ways to manage that risk. None of it is as exigent as other conditions.

And why should this not be one of the ways to manage that risk? The biggest difference seems to be that it actually works, on average, unlike some other common treatments like telling people to eat less and exercise more.
This is exactly the reason I intend to stick with 4k for now: I don't want a display that large. I currently have a 48" 4k display, and I'd prefer to have a 42" or 36" one. (Good choices are hard to find, though, particularly if you actually want 4k rather than ultrawide, want OLED, and don't want to just use a TV.)

I hard disagree, solely for the money is NOT worth it.

You’re much better off focusing down on your career and maximising your paycheque.

Doing it solely for money you will just burnout. A 40 hour week + life commitments + a side project to make money is not sustainable for anyone.

Doing a fun side project that somehow makes money is fine, but think of the overwhelming amount of failed side projects out there. Statistically it’s very unlikely your side project will make much money.

We should definitely further clarify this! We built Integuru as an internal tool while building the products for Taiki. Then we realized that other developers may need the agent, too, so we decided to open-source Integuru. In terms of the current focus for our team, we are spending most of our time on Integuru because newly requested integrations take some of our resources to build, and we want to continue improving the agent. I think the correct way to frame this is a market expansion, where we're expanding beyond the tax industry.
> I wonder what the math would look like to properly render 3D scenes onto a curved display. Could it be accelerated as well as the regular matrix operations used for perspective projection onto planar screens?

The math is pretty simple to account for a curved viewport, even though I don't think any apps actually care about that. Most displays aren't curved enough to make it a meaningful difference.

We don't have fixed function pipelines anymore either so that could definitely be handled by hardware.

That's super interesting, I've been removing a lot of the redundant comments from the AI results. But adding new more explanatory ones that make it easier for both AI and humans to understand the code base makes a lot of sense in my head.

It's most visible with the macbooks because you have the retina display and the low dpi display next to each other.
