A few years ago while I was working for a large enterprise I was brought in by our CTO to understand what IoT problems Intel could help us solve.

I remember saying ‘unless it has something to do with their connectivity solutions, none, because they no longer have a viable edge compute architecture for our use cases’, but I was assured they were willing to ‘co-develop’ and I may be surprised. Indeed the end of this statement alone was surprising, because why would any company of Intels scale want to co-develop with a mid size enterprise for an internal facing use case?

I won’t go into great detail but it turns out:
- they had no new product in the pipeline, I never did figure out what there was to ‘co-develop’

- their solution was to install $1k NUCs at the edge instead of $100 RPI derivatives

- their busy bodies were willing to discuss just about anything because they evidently did not have a very firm remit, and we had our own busy bodies that also loved to pursue passion projects that had no business value

- they evidently had a lot of these ‘solutions’ teams that were kind of roaming around to… do something… with large companies, that was not really related to selling hardware or services

It just struck me as incredibly odd that a notoriously stubborn company that was so content to focus on ultra high margin products was wasting so many resources talking to customers about point solutions that would never scale into a meaningful business.

I ended up giving the CTO my grim assessment on the initiative and going to focus on other things. A part of me thought maybe I was just missing something and the teams would come back with something useful, but I never heard about any of it again. Good riddance.
No household uses 1400kW, and kW/year doesn't make sense. Do you mean 1400kWh/year? That seems pretty low (NZ is 7000kWh/year), but if so, you're comparing power to energy, which doesn't mean much. 1W 24/7 < 9kWh/year, which is pretty small.

Cool tool! I was always doing this manually... :-D

Only complain I have is that there is no setting to display Monday as the first day on the calendar display, not Sunday.
By your logic, nobody really has a right to be sad. There is always someone who had it worse. One is not 'entitled' [believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment] because they had a good family and grieve its loss. Nor should they feel guilty about that feeling.

Oh geez, the video version of that article is the biggest let down ever: it's just ~50 minutes of a screen capture of the same article, with an corner image of him reading the article (OK I skipped around to see if it ever switches to him recording the monitor, I didn't listen to hear if he added more info compared to the written text).

Video is supposed to offer sound and moving pictures, for a product review I expect to see some recordings of the product, including in this case the screen to maybe see the quality of the picture. Not just the reviewer reading the article.
I'm not sure what the answer is, but for the record whenever I spent a few weeks in the mountains as a younger person, I never brought rifles, lighters, or gps beacons (or any other electronics). I did have matches though, in a waterproof bag. But I also had steel and flint. Knife. And a fishing rod. In fact the most useful modern society thing I brought would be soap.. if you have it you don't think much about it, if you don't then you realize how very useful it is.
Wouldn't dead reckoning with the accelerometer and gyroscope in addition to their machine learning improve this significantly? (constraining motion along the known tunnel path when in a moving train, constraining the user to be within the train stopping rectangle when detecting a train starting to move)

Or is the hardware in smartphones too inaccurate even with the extra information?
The documentary mentioned in the article is definitely worth watching. Some parts of it are undoubtedly propaganda, but it still offers an incredible view on what detonating a nuclear bomb actually looked like.
> Proxmox uses ZFS making snapshotting quick

Proxmox only supports linear snapshots using ZFS (so no tree-like snapshots). This might be a deal-breaker for some usages.

And usually at the end of a public infrastructure project you have something of some benefit to the public, even if there's bad RoI. With tech stuff that goes nowhere at best you have a jobs programme and short-term PR for some politicians.

The fervent wish to only let deserving people get grants results in a huge amount of box-ticking and self-promotion that (in my experience) seems to select for self-promotion parasites rather than people who want to make useful products and get rich from customers rather than government funds.

If you dive deeper into EU regulations you will soon find they have near-zero interest in user privacy. They are forced by voters to put a show, the practical result is what you see.

We shouldn't wait for a government to apply technological measures for our privacy, we should instead be an active part in making sure they exist and become popular.

There are common trade-offs with large company vs. small company/startup (I've never heard of Razorpay). At a large company you have defined career paths, lots of learning opportunities to branch out, ability to move around to different teams, and no paycheck/funding issues (ex: if a startup isn't profitable they are at the mercy of seed rounds). At a small company you may not get a lot of those things but you may get opportunities to advance into higher responsibility roles much faster. Advancement at large companies is usually process heavy and on some cadence like yearly reviews, etc.

Its probably awesome to have a couple offers these days based on what people post about the job market on here and elsewhere. Good luck.
On one hand, Tesla could roll out a Waymo competitor in all the necessary cities in a matter of months if they wanted to. On the other hand, Waymo will cease to exist as soon as Tesla cracks their robotaxi problem.

Tesla was mildly successful right until ite CEO satrted to fight its customers. It's unclear if this will revert.

There's little reason to expect a correction any soon on any of those.
I wish I could believe the argument that Russian corruption has reached the point at which their nukes are no longer a threat and the alternative view amounts to fear mongering. But it seems unlikely that they have regressed so far in the means of power in the last sixty years. As the Doomsday Clock moves ever closer to midnight it concerns me that its political salience has only diminished.
Silly comparison, but you should feel compassion when someone is hurting, yes. It doesn't matter if you think it's justified pain. It's still pain.
As the flood dissipates downstream particles will fall out of suspension and/or wash ashore. They're all the same shape and density so the conditions in which they drop out is going to be about equal. If they were all swept up from the same starting point they could very well all end up washing up in the same place. It's made more likely if the river has something like a natural lake for the flood to dissipate into. The dead stuff is free to float about and get naturally sorted by the wind and mild currents.

Agree, but I wonder how much of that is just the lack of colouring. My brain is suuuuper hard wired to expect all the special keywords to be identified that way as well as by case.

Mostly I'm a caps guy because my ahk scripts expand text like "ssf","w" and "gb"* to be the way I learned to write them at first.

Games. Sony, Nintendo, are we really saying the country that makes PlayStation and Nintendo's is 'bad' at software?

And, Didn't someone in Japan make the Ruby language?

I didn't quite find it. How are they categorizing Japanese software as 'bad' compared to any other country? Was it just because US Silicon Valley has had a few bigger startups in general? Is that really a good benchmark?
One-Touch Screen Sharing
If you want to manage VMs, then you're probably using terraform + provider. However, SDN (Software Defined Networking) is not yet supported [1], which makes any kind of deployment with network separation not feasible (using IAC only).

Great questions.

1. This is a familiar problem and it is where I spend the majority of time. If a bank provides a unique transaction ID the it would be a simple matter of code; however, none of mine do. What I do when I spot problems is run `hledger areg <account> --begin=<last month> --end=<this month>` and compare with the CSV. Opening the output of that command + this months CSV in vim using vertical split (`vsp`) and scrollbind (`scrollbind`) so each line scrolls together works well and is pretty quick. It's still a problem and a pain.

2. This is solved in my system in a robust way (I believe) with a "virtual account." I do most of my spending on my credit card. Then every month I pay off the card from my checking. To represent this I need to see:

- liabilities:credit with any balance I carry

- expenses should show a transfer from liabilities:credit to the correct expense category/account

- I should avoid being "double charged"; i.e., when I pay off liabilities:credit it should NOT be an expense.

I've set it up like this:

- rules/debit/journal.rules: if (payment to credit) then account2 assets:transfer:credit

- rules/credit/journal.rules: if (payment from debit) then account2 assets:transfer:credit

This becomes a way to spot problems. If assets:transfer:credit ever has a balance then something may be awry and you should spend some time digging. I do the same thing for Amazon. Each Amazon order is for multiple expenses. I have assets:transfer:amazon. This is how I learned the the $0.29 Colorado retail delivery fee is not universally applied to orders from Amazon—that was a frustrating journey!

3. I haven't worried about this. Looks like other good responses in this thread.

> At best LLMs would be an analog for the language center of a brain, and it sure seems like they nailed it.

Unless a LLM create a neologism 'en passant', without prompting, they did not.
What makes Konbinis across Asia unique is that it's convenient, cheap and high quality. That's the magic sauce.

Most other places are super expensive or convenient or high quality. But hardly all combined. That's why Asian Konbinis are great. Note this is true of most of Asia, not just Japan.
Maybe this? https://youtu.be/Swmcldi_jc4
Well, more an existential threat to the current regime running the place. I imagine the Russian people would be quite happy to have a regular democracy. Which is one reason Putin isn't very keen on one in Ukraine.
These reports feel useful but in practice they can't really be used for purchasing choices. By the time you have an idea if a model is a problem its already obsolete and replaced in the market anyway. Most drives wont make it to 10 years and there is an early failure spike as well. Some models are bad, some are great and manufacturer doesn't seem to be the key component nor are the major technical advancements.
I dream of a day where one can post a Raku article on HNN and not encounter a comments section full of digressions into discussing Perl.

There is some sense to it by means of comparison, but the constant conflation of the two becomes tiresome.

But in that spirit, let's compare:

The =()= "operator" is really a combination of Perl syntax[^1] that achieves the goal of converting list context to scalar context. This isn't necessary to determine the length of an array (`my $elems = @array` or, in favor of being more explicity, `my $elems = 0+@array`). It is, however, useful in Perl for the counting of more complex list contexts on the RHS.

Let's use some examples from it's documentation to compare to Raku.

Perl:

my $n =()= "abababab" =~ /a/g;
# $n == 4

Raku:

my $n = +("abababab" ~~ m:g/'a'/);
# $n == 4
# Alternatively...
my $n = ("abababab" ~~ m:g/'a'/).elems;

That's it. `+` / `.elems` are literally all you ever need to know for gathering a count of elements. The quotes around 'a' in the regex are optional but I always use them because I appreciate denoting which characters are literal in regexes (Note also that the regex uses the pair syntax mentioned in OP via `m:g`. Additional flags are provided as pairs, eg `m:g:i`).

Another example.

Perl:

my $count =()= split /:/, "ab:ab:ab";
# $count == 3

Raku:

my $count = +"ab:ab:ab".split(':');
# $count == 3

While precedence can at times be a conceptual hindrance, it's also nice to save some parentheses where it is possible and legible to do so. Opinions differ on these points, of course. Note also that `Str.split` can take string literals as well as regexes.

Chronic itch is miserable. Scientists are just scratching the surface
Some people care about the goals of the company, some people care about the company. Who cares about the company, gets promoted.
I hate to tell you this, but most of the major powers did all sorts horrible things during that time period. Especially my people group, who were arguable the most effective at it.

And fwiw, the late Soviets tried to course correct regarding ethnic groups. My wife (half ethnic Komi, another Finnish group), was taught that language in school.

Don’t get me wrong, the Finish and Finnish ethnic groups (and many others) got a raw deal, but it’s no reason for the blanket Russophobia that we see on hn so often.
Exactly. The worst thing that can happen for a project like this is that it becomes successful. The goal is that it fails completely, so that politicians and friends can try again in a couple of years with a massive new load of tax payer money. What about the old projects, why did they fail? Those are questions that only traitors and Russian assets would ask.

In Germany it's perfect possible to fire an employee without telling a reason, if the company has all-in-all < 10 employees.

If the company is bigger than that, then everything is based on decisions and considerations. Which is a good thing. You can't be fired like, "go now, no money more" within small or big companies, if you didn't steal, break things on purpose or misbehave strongly.

But you can be regularly fired with a 3 months upfront, or, if you're employed longer than 5y, then the upfront time is prolonged automatically an additional month for each year of being employed.

So, we're taking care of the people living and working here. Which is a good thing for the people. The people are more worth than a company, aren't they?

Within the probationary period of 3-6 months (contract defined) you can be fired or just stop working by yourself without needing to tell a reason within minutes.
I’ve found that aftermarket memory foam eartips work much better than the stock ones for keeping them in my ears.

I'm beginning to suspect LLMs' viability for search purposes is dependent on your existing search habits. 40% of my search queries are just copy-pasted error messages. Another 10% are business names, for the sole purpose of finding their hours or phone number. Less than 10% are complete clauses or sentences.

I just don't see how an LLM fits my search habits. I tried using ChatGPT for search purposes, and it was dreadful. Incorrect hours for businesses, gibberish results for the copy-pasted error messages, it was an all-around failure.

Have you people been typing complete sentences into Google all these years? Is that where this whole "LLMs will replace search" thing is coming from?
In cases like this won't Chaos Monkey actually hide the problem, since it's basically doing exactly the same as their mitigation strategy - randomly restarting services?
I guess the solution would be to build a different company from the ground up and then shield against the common culture sneaking in. You would need to repeat it very often though. Or have a branch office of a non-japanese company.

I live in a small country and there are foreign companies and while they have to adjust to local laws and have mostly local employees, they still are culturally different from each other.

I wonder how GE with a strong central process and culture control is doing in Japan?
Or if they’re talking about those calling people extreme names like Hitler and fascist, it didn’t do a very job convincing people to vote the way the name-callers wanted.
>>The IFR for men between 35-39 is five and half times higher than that.

Yes, but clients shouldn't be encouraged to refer to server paths. It's unnecessary exposure of details and makes it harder to move things around. Also I wonder if this requires extra permissions. I know COPY from server files requires extra permissions:

> COPY naming a file or command is only allowed to database superusers or users who are granted one of the roles pg_read_server_files, pg_write_server_files, or pg_execute_server_program, since it allows reading or writing any file or running a program that the server has privileges to access.
Some Chinese users have discovered a more effective way to bypass geo-locking, even on iPhones (some Apple Health features require approval and can only be enabled on iPhone, not iPad).

TLDR, iPhones prioritize external GPS devices over internal ones. All you need is a "fake" lightning or USB-C external GPS device that tells your device where you want it to think it is.

Yeah, but where you live they only sell the PD2706 model, and who knows what that does differently - especially since most of the listings on Amazon use a mix of PD2704 and PD2705 pictures.

Nobody, including you, have produced an example of a workforce that's substantially easier due to gits model.

Either gits design is unnecessarily complex, or there should be a pay off to the complexity somewhere. Some flavor you can't get, or can't get easily, with jj.

I wouldn't need these features either, but I believe teaching jj to beginners will be easier than teaching git. This is further evidence that the problem is git, not the problem space and the need for different workflows: If a different set of concepts serves both power users and beginners better, at what point do we stop pretending that it's all just tradeoffs?
Those are the names of the street the station is at, if you follow the map north/south you'll see all the Pulaski stations are on the same street. In an app you'd use the address for where you want to go and it may or may not include the train. Though the apps can also understand "Blue line Pulaski" if it really is your destination rather than a stop on the way.
Poland joining NATO was "an existential threat" to Soviet Russia, too. It's bullshit. The CCCP pretty much collapsed on its own.

There's no "threat" now. Putin is just desperately trying to rebuild what Gorbachev already lost.

They are corrupt. Next time Russia will colapse and ask for food aid (see Bush Legs 1990), we should exchange it for nukes. Food for nukes, sounds sweet.
That’s what judges already do when deciding cases…?
I wasn’t looking at the stars. I was looking at all the reviews from different people saying the app locked them out of all their contacts.
“LLMs are just fancy statistical prediction machines”

“It’s not really thinking.”

“It’s just matching training data.”

Sound familiar? These arguments are everywhere right now, especially after Apple researchers claimed AI can’t reason mathematically. What’s fascinating is how quickly the press transformed this specific claim about mathematical reasoning into sweeping headlines about AI’s inability to reason at all.
That is the point — this is (another) example of a programmer bug that C allows that Rust does not.
The shape is wrong though. A loop would be more efficient.
It is never a good idea to believe ones own propaganda. The 'weakness' of Russia is a fallacy that need not be tested, ever, with aggression.

A far better use of ones time is to wonder where all the diplomacy has gone.

Why? Cause switching to ChatGPT Search as a default is hard. Yeah, it is a way better Search Engine for Information Searches, but for Navigation Searches it sucks (takes too long).
