I love that the only alternative is a "pile of shell scripts". Nobody has posted a legitimate alternative to the complexity of K8S or the simplicity of doctor compose. Certainly feels like there's a gap in the market for an opinionated deployment solution that works locally and on the cloud, with less functionality than K8S and a bit more complexity than docker compose.
Ask HN: Light ML Laptop for Linux 2025?
Brief: looking for a well balanced laptop well running Linux and easily capable of local inference for small LLM-s, image generation, etc. It will be used standalone so quality display and keyboard are important.

The perfect laptop (I do not expect to find one):
* Light and quite 14"-15"
* Gaming laptop midrange+ (because that's best for AI)
* Great Linux support
* NVIDIA GeForce w/ ~8GB VRAM
* 32 GB RAM
* 2 NVMe slots (Linux for ML/dev/work, Windows for games)
* Bright screen 300-500 nits

I am not looking for a monster workstation - I have the PC for that. I am looking for a balance of Linux, gaming-quality-GPU, and quality mobility.

The Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 (2024) comes very close - except for my critical condition of running Linux well - I can see very mixed opinions for ROG series.

Any tips, however far from my elusive ideal are much welcome!
Senators should not be complaining about this. Congress required the TSA to check identity, and soon, REAL ID will be required to fly in the US, even domestically. So what's their problem with doing it effectively?
Linux isn't POSIX compliant, and as far as I know has no plans to ban newlines in filenames, or even add an option to disable newlines.

"Between January 2022 and June 2024, employment in US private businesses increased by about 7.32 million jobs. Of these 7.32 million jobs, about 5,400 were jobs created in California businesses—representing about .07 percent of the US figure. Put differently, if California private-sector jobs grew at the same rate as in the rest of the country, they would have increased by over 970,000 during that period, about 180 times greater than the actual increase."
I’m gonna need you to take about 15% off the top there, Squirelly Dan.
But nobody is lending books for money, like people used to lend videotapes. Thar particular type of business has been salted by libraries.

People will pay when it gets them something they value, but the moment someone offers that for free, completion on price of that thing becomes impossible. Instead, competition moves to ancillary aspects of a thing, such as e.g. delivery, or integrations, or lifestyle marketing.

Case in point: neither Amazon nor Audible compete with libraries on just letting you read books - they compete on delivery (ease of access).

The students are not expected to understand the perils of AI, they are expected to follow the policies the teacher gave them. And the policies were very clear: they can use AI for inspiration and web search, but they cannot use it to write text to be submitted.

What you are describing might make sense for "ChatGPT class", but that wasn't it, that was AP History.

(And that's how schools work in general: in real life, no one integrates matrixes by hand; and yet calculus classes do not teach CAS systems or their perils)
So they now offer direct cellular coverage whereas before only offered internet?

This is great for regions that need to be connected and the power elites, but for the rest of us it wouldn't change much.

I disagree with almost all of Elon's "politics" but Starlink still has huge potential. Hopefully, he doesn’t abuse the power too much and focuses on making the world more connected, in the hands of the us government and given away like GPS it could be the way to go to get the whole world connected.
> Newlines are now forbidden in filenames

No. To quote that article

> A bunch of C functions are now encouraged to report EILSEQ if the last component of a pathname to a file they are to create contains a newline

This, yes, makes newlines in filenames effectively illegal on operating systems strictly conforming to the new POSIX standard. However, older systems will not be enforcing this and any operating system which exposes a syscall interface that does not require libc (such as Linux) is also not required to emit any errors. The only time even in the future that you should NOT worry about handling the newline case is on filesystems where it's is expressly forbidden, such as NTFS.
I wouldn't trust Chrome to treat my iPhone battery well, unfortunately. Looking forward to hearing reviews of real Firefox on iOS from Eurozone, though… I'd consider downloading the source and compiling with a dev cert if it turns out to be any good.

I used Common Lisp as my primary language for 2015-2022 and Python for 2023. I've used a few other languages along the way, in parallel to my main effort: Rust, Ada, Python, C++.

I'll probably just use Python this year, so many things are "baked in" to the language that it's the most straightforward. Only downside really is performance, but if you need high performance compiled code for Advent of Code problems you've generally not solved the problem efficiently.

Quite the opposite.

301 million dollars for 101km of infrastructure is cheap compared to building highways [0]. The price of the usual infrastructure is a burden on everyone as well, not just car owners.

You shouldn't have to force anyone to choose any particular mode of transport. I think people choose what is most convenient and that happens to be cycling in urban areas where there is safe infrastructure for it.

Your question reads pretty weird to me; building cycling infrastructure makes a city more ideal for cyclists, that's exactly the point. I didn't read it yet, but I found a paper that seems interesting and in the direction of your question. [1]

> Guess who won't be fine? US auto manufacturers.

The US is trying to do industrial policy (like now in China, and previously in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, and in Germany before that), but without the key aspect -- export discipline -- that makes industrial policy work. I'm thinking about Joe Studwell's How Asia Works. Everything I'm seeing in the US reminds me more of the failures in Indonesia and India than of the successes in Japan and Korea. With the exceptions of -- "say what you will about Elon, but" -- Tesla and SpaceX. Bidenonics will take time to bear fruit, though, and could yet yield some successes.

Point is, using tariffs to protect "infant industry" is the opposite of export discipline.

(As a side note, most of those countries also had major land reform, whereas property rights -- sorry, "rule of law" -- are pretty sacred in the US )

Most car trips are very short, and commuting to a CBD is easily served by transit.
C# (.NET in general) :)

Well, variables cannot be forced to stack specifically. They are placed in the "local scope". And that would usually be either stack or CPU registers - thinking in stack only is a somewhat flawed mental model.

Both C# and F# complicate this by supporting closures, iterator and async methods which capture variables placing them in a state machine box / display class instead which would be located on the heap, unless stack-allocated by escape analysis (unlikely because these usually cross method boundaries).

However, .NET has `ref structs` (or, in F#, [<Struct; IsByRefLike>] types) which are subject to lifetime analysis and can never be placed on the heap directly or otherwise.

I totally missed that they had actually specified the route, and was just commenting on a generic one (which is why I guess it might be mountainous, definitely places in the West where you can drive >100 miles without charging infrastructure....just also not many people to visit).
I'm using wireguard with ipv6, the only thing that I never got to work is for wireguard to do ipv6 prefix delegation allowing devices to pick (and change) their own address like they do on a normal ethernet subnet.

I like the randomisation that normally happens to make it invisible which phone/device in the subnet made each request.
Wow. What's the yield like? Are some bits bad and bypassed during testing?
west can compete. unlike byd’s, which get bricked all the time without infrastructure to maintain and repair them, west (and japan even more so) build cars that last. this is china we are talking about, the last thing I want is a car made by them… :)
Definitely one for https://news.ycombinator.com/highlights.
The problem with car-dependent cities is that they are very spread out. Why does public transit suck and why don't many people use the bike lanes? Because everything is far away.

We've built our cities this way. Our tax system encourages it (by not taxing land value directly and exempting development from taxation), and our zoning requires it (my city is almost entirely zoned exclusively for single-family detached housing). Bike lanes are nice, but they don't make a 25-km ride through endless suburbia any shorter.

You can't just copy the superficial traits of bikeable European cities and hope to get the same results. We need to fundamentally rethink the way our cities are allowed and encouraged to grow.

They recruited volunteers to trap 100s of crabs and put cameras in the areas they frequent. I can’t help but think maybe the crabs should have been left alone and maybe after ~1,600 years of being left alone they have not responded well to humans bothering them.

Go has much more significant stack allocation capabilities, most notably it has no problem allocating entire structs on the stack so doesn't need scalar replacement, which falls over if you breathe on it (https://pkolaczk.github.io/overhead-of-optional/).

Because whenever economic progress (eg offshoring, efficiency improvements, better competition) happens and gets expressed to the market (ie lower prices), the explicit government policy is to consider this as some kind of failure and create enough new money that not only do prices stay the same, but rather actually go up.

This might even be workable if there were a corresponding government policy to gradually redefine full time employment as an ever lower number of hours. But instead we've been steeped in fallacious "free market" ideology that would paint any such thing as government meddling, even as it hypocritically gives a pass to the inflation treadmill itself.

> I wanna see how many Asian men get in with B's

Please stop perpetuating this myth.

Asians are not held to a different standard.

Anecdotally (with truck load of anecdotes), Asian-Americans (to be specific) frequently seem to be held to a widely-known standard that either they aren’t aware of or don’t believe in.

Note that this is not exclusive to Asian-Americans — plenty of upper-middle class white people fall into this category as well — but that was the group you mentioned.

I have made an open offer to HN, and it still holds:

If you show me the application of an Asian that you felt was held to a different standard for elite school admissions, then I will give you the reason why they most likely didn’t get in.
Nvidia's long been rumored to be designing desktop and probably laptop SOCs. Once those come out, that will probably be the Linux option in that range. Not sure if any of it is slated for 2025, but it's been around the corner for a few years now.

Always. All digital storage media depends on error correcting codes and sector-remapping these days.

Agreed, but how do you know you are doing well at it? Who hasn’t? Stock market only goes up and has been fueled by low interest rates for almost 2 decades.
I have seen my fair share of data centers and office complexes switching to their diesel generators due to very high energy spot prices.

If you have an alternative source of power (even if it is a gas generator) I think a spot price contract is fine. Otherwise it is too risky for residential consumers.

Owl Lisp – A functional Scheme for world domination
That's fair. I was basically taking my family's "worst case" scenario (10+ hour drive, 2 kids, 2 dogs, + luggage) and assuming that was typical, when in actuality that's probably as rare a situation as the one I was replying to. We can, just barely, make our current vehicle + roofrack work with 1 kid and 2 dogs when we visit my parents, but since we are planning a second kid, we are looking around for something larger.

For anyone not trying do to both kids + dogs, there are probably a lot more options.

Applied Materials MAX OLED screens touted to offer 5x lifespan
I use a MacBook Air with the 24GB RAM upgrade for exactly this use case. You won’t be running Linux easily outside of Docker (or similar tools) but the AI tools are all pretty reliable running on bare MacOS. Also, the lack of active cooling will limit you after 10-20min of running it hard, which is the trade off for how incredibly mobile the thing is.
Without knowing the specific context: I think this really is a good example of how errors should be disclosed.
We need to acknowledge that scientists/academics are human; even very competent mathematicians make mistakes and some of these mistakes appear in published papers. What we lack in many fields is a culture and process that allows (and ideally, encourages) one to disclose: "this was wrong, here is how I fixed it, or how it's actually correct". E.g., in the communities I know in Computer Science & AI, I rarely even see errata lists on personal webpages, not to speak of journals that provide a straightforward process for updates. I would even go so far to claim that the current culture, in which honest errors cannot be straightforwardly corrected, plays into the hands of the clearly dishonest "bad apples".

Science is, obviously, not a "monotonic" process in which every single paper adds to the truth; this is practically not even the case for mathematics, which is at least monotonic on object-level (but mistakes happen all the time). As a prominent example, consider this impressive list of Feynman errata: https://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/info/flp_errata.html.

even though most people don’t do it, on more expensive cars it actually makes serious financial sense to replace the battery but on cheaper cars it does not!
I 55yo. I think any people 40s+ would have meet 90-100 yo family members in their youth. I lived in in a 1870s house in a town in Connecticut and most of the houses on Main St. were of that vintage. It is not so uncommon in New England. Of course percentage wise I imagine most people in the US (and else where) live in structures younger. The house I a in now (my father built) is about 50yo and my grandparents house (that we inherited) is 80yo+.

I spoke with an English engineer once who lived in a 400-500yo house in England and he knew an Egyptian who had lived in a house in the 1000s years old range. I suppose the terms "young" and "old" are fairly relative.
