Yeah, I don't really get the hulabaloo, if granny doesn't have the mental fortitude to keep up with the times she shouldn't be managing her own money. I guess better her son/daughter than a scammer but both are better than letting money rot. Put granny on foodstamps and pay $1 for her rent controled housing be done with it.
Thank you! I've seen quite a lot of similar projects as I was working on this, and they all served as much inspiration and also a proof that this can in fact be done.

Also, thanks to whoever came up with thebookbay.org instance :)
Is it too early to start thinking about applications? Like Visio, for instance, or Inkscape.

Since these are cancer trials I'm assuming no test subjects get paid, and university PhDs research for free, like in every other field, so what necessarily has to be expensive about it?

If you have to pay 200 homeless to take your 0.0001% better than placebo antidepressants in the context of a huge corporation, and maybe redo the trial a few times, I can see how that gets expensive, but I don't see why it's a de facto rule.

But even the big trials it's weird how expensive people say they are. Most other products require a lot of high paid labor to produce, think of a video game studio for example, also without any guarantee it won't flop, and it certainly takes longer to develop than to do a clinical trial.
So many AI posts are overrun with this kind of complaining from folks with limited imaginations.

On a forum that frequently discusses technology with enthusiasm you'd think there'd be more enthusiasm and more constructive criticism instead of blanket write-offs.

`meth` is just a historical abbreviation.

Mind that support for methods as first-class objects was introduced with Python 2.5 [0].

That was in 2006, a few years before "meth" became engrained in European popular culture as an abbreviation for methamphetamines. The abbreviation was never changed.

Termux has now a nice wrapper (manager?) for proot [1]. I once wanted to submit a wrapper but got an angry response as the first comment to my PR and it was closed. Guess enough people did that until they decided maybe it's not a bad idea after all.

Came here with the idea of this being about how someone made terrible pre-1970 washing machine UX into something much better. Can’t say I’m disappointed though! I’m wondering if cleaning-intensity ultrasound could cause issues for humans?
The real utility of something like this is for reducing the creative costs of voice-acting. i.e. something like this is a massive boone for mod-makers where making fully voiced anything is a huge undertaking - i.e. while my friends and family could probably provide their voice if I asked, getting a decent recording and performance out of them is just not going to be possible.

But if I can get the performance I want and shift it to another voice, then fully voicing free works becomes very accessible (even better would be generative AI which could take a sample of what you want and re-render it into something which sounds like a more professional performance - voice in-fill I suppose).
> The LED should be connected to camera's power, or maybe camera's "enable" signal.

Wiring it in like this is suboptimal because this way you might never see the LED light up if a still photo is surreptitiously captured. This has been a problem before: illicit captures that happen so quickly the LED never has time to warm up.

Controlling the LED programmatically from isolated hardware like this is better, because then you can light up the LED for long enough to make it clear to the user something actually happened. Which is what Apple does -- three seconds.

Not too early. I got an NES emulator in there and a text editor already. I wonder if I could port Inkscape to wasm.
Thank you for the input, now you mention it I have heard of GPD many years ago, I didn't realise this was an existing product line. Sorry for jumping to conclusions here.

"Doomed to failure" was too strong in hindsight, it seems GPD have found their niche. It does however sound like it is quite a niche. This product does have a bunch of tradeoffs that work for that niche, but that make it unlikely to be suitable for a mainstream audience.
The T2 chip is mentioned in the quoted passage as an indicator of the architecture version, not necessarily an indicator that the T2 chip is directly involved
I need to check about Pocket - do you have any relevant documentation? Note however that TeaTime does keep an offline cache, both a list of your recent books and the files themselves, but it does it using LocalStorage and IndexedDB because I really wanted to prevent the need for having user logins. Maybe I can add an option to download a "state dump" kind of thing, so that you can a file with your history and can always import it. I too always feel that LocalStorage could be a little flaky, in the sense that you don't always realize that switching a browser would mean losing all your data.
> For instance, NaN-tagging prevents (or largely complicates) optimizations relying on stack allocations. The stack uses high memory addresses that do not fit in 48 bits unless encoded relative to the location of the stack segment.

Er, what? The paper says they tested on a Xeon CPU, so x86-64, running Linux. On traditional x86-64, all pointers fit in 48 bits, period. Stack memory is no exception. More recently the architecture was extended to allow 56-bit pointers, but my impression is that Linux (like other OSes) keeps them disabled by default in userspace. According to the documentation [1]:

> Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses. [..] To mitigate this, we are not going to allocate virtual address space above 47-bit by default.

So how would the stack end up above 47 bits? Is the documentation out of date?

I used to use https://www.mailslurp.com/ for that purpose and it worked fairly well. IIRC they even had a long-lived Keep-Alive endpoint where you would make a GET request and it would sit and wait for up to a few minutes until a message arrived.

Great app, thanks for sharing!

It reminds me of an anti-bullying app that simply asked, "Are you sure you want to send this?", which greatly decreased the abuse.
Instagram seems to have the same approach now.
Ha, that's a great point... I can probably work on a meta "table of content" for each database, shouldn't be hard to do. But generally the database descriptions say what they have - public domain books, library genesis non-fiction, etc.
An additional wrinkle is that NaNs are a bit unstable and can have large performance penalties. You can't let the NaNs ever escape into arithmetic and you may even have issues even storing them in a register.
Conversational Game Theory
Reading mkb community forums for a long time I can tell that this is either self-assurance or blind eye. Switches and mkbds break all the time and some people tend to make/use quick replace whole-switch mounts, which then creates alignment issues etc.

I use three membrane chiclet keyboards since around 2018 that have no wear signs apart from plastic desaturation of a package.

There are good models and bad models, regardless of a type.
Of course that depends somewhat on the venue and the cut they take of ticket and merch sales too.
Of course, because it's perl, the Swiss army knife. Reducing token sets, blocks, statements is pretty language agnostic. It would have been an overarchitectured multi-file mess in python

you would have to make many changes to society to change the process that causes wealth to accumulate. there's no way these people would agree to a one time event (or structural changes for that matter as it goes completely against their interests), so you'd clearly have to make it a structural change for it to happen at all. these changes would have to account for R&D and other roles that the ultra-wealthy take upon themselves to select arbitrarily. theoretically such a system has the potential to be far more egalitarian than our stratified modern society.
No, I think it's fairly easy to see that a third of the charge suddenly disappearing is a fairly uncommon behavior.

> the New Yorker has better writers.

Really? I suppose it's very subjective, but I find their style, both in this article and in general to be unbearably long - almost as if their journalists enjoy writing for the sake of writing, with the transmission of information being a minor concern.
Yeah, but does that mean, (supposing they are different machines), a package is installed on both computers? On the client and the server? It sounds redundant, and pretty strange if and that's indeed what happens. I will read eventually the docs and find out myself, but it's gonna take 2-3 hours to dig out documents.

> if you care to understand the code you are running and you are THAT concerned about security it can be an excellent aid toward peace of mind.

Elisp can be more difficult to review that Rust. It is much more difficult to hide malicious pieces of code, inside a Rust program that in Elisp. Elisp is pretty powerful as many lisps are, but you can write Emacs modules in Rust. See ubolonton's project on github. I tested it at some point and it works.

>if you have a lots crypto assets

If i had crypto assets, (which i don't), then the correct way to organize money units, tokenized pieces of housing, tokenized pieces of cars, a thousandth of a car for example, is to use an identity which can create children identities, and each child identity can be revoked on demand by the root identity or the parent identity. Then you only really have to keep secure the root identity, everything else is revocable.
They're great! They just cost too much for how much output I want.
proot works by hijacking and altering syscalls. So maybe you could emulate the symlink yourself, by altering the file paths at ptrace level?

Thinking more, maybe it works out of the box? Just mount the overlays (there's a cli flag IIRC) and proot takes care of syscalls by definition.
Him being highly qualified in a specific narrow area doesn’t mean much besides that.

I had honestly made my peace with it moving to Dagenham. It makes sense for the Farringdon area, it makes sense for transport links, it even makes sense for the traders, who mostly live out that way. To close the existing markets without building a new one is cultural vandalism.

You can buy/print and stick a physical «webcam cover»[1] manually on your notebook or phone.

Hardware can be and is implemented such that it changes behavior over time too, or have undisclosed remote capabilities. There are also fun features where various fuses blow internally if you do specific things the vendor doesn't fancy.

There sure is a difference in threat model, but I don't think the person I was replying to appreciates that, which is kind of what triggered my reply.
Seconded, to all of that. Jack’s talk made a huge impression on me, too. So now I write almost no classes other than data containers, or maybe ones where I want to change some behavior without having a gazallion “isinstance” calls. All the happy little functions are thoroughly type decorated.

only Malaria has killed far more people than missiles you brought up. According to estimates published in Nature, over 50 billion people have suffered from Malaria over the course of human history. (Whitfield, J. Portrait of a serial killer. Nature 2002) that nearly half of humanity lost to a single disease.

and unfortunately we are in warming planet where Malaria's host vector range is going to increase as temperatures continue to rise, destroying Malaria is one of the greatest possible morale goods we could pursue.

Show HN: Build you own SQL query planner/optimizer guide
Build you own query planner guide. I've been developing this guide for some time now, and I'm excited to finally share it with you.

- a fully-functional SQL planner/optimizer
- a minimal query executor (for demoing purpose)

Removing strings from the language is what makes it non-regular. E.g., a regular language cannot contain a^n b^n (that is: the string is only accepted when it has an identical amount of a's and b's), but it sure as hell can contain a^m b^n. Removing the strings where m != n is what makes a language context-free.
Apple only I guess? But for anyone who can't use it, I've been using Hevy for about 6 months and it's great. Simple interface, works well on mobile, web, and android watches. No ads and minimal unobtrusive social features.

Really the only complaint I have is that it's limited to strength training and that's not the only type of training a human body needs to do. But I haven't found apps of similar quality for other types of training.
I hired hundreds of people without coding sessions, because although you are right, they also hire a lot of bad people, who are just good at selling themselves. As bigger the company gets, as easier it is to deal with the unnecessary cost of wrong hirings, it's just a number game.

So no, I didn't wait for the world to change for me, I changed it myself ;).
It's a "drop-in" replacement in the sense that it's compatible with the format and with the rough semantics of SemVer. That is, if your libraries / packages all use SemVer, but the final executable / image uses TrunkVer, the latter does not need to be special-cased. TrunkVer gives a stream of "major versions" that's strictly increasing and all incompatible, and uses non-version fields to convey useful info. All SemVer-based tools will accept a TrunkVer value and do the right thing (that is, always prefer the newest build).
The difference is that the OpenFit are not bone conducting, they have speakers which sit over the entry of your ear. And I think that's the reason why they are not really working for me.

Maybe I should give the bone conducting ones a try.
>lower the respin costs

You might be interested in structured ASICs, which allow for substantial reuse of masks between different products. At the extreme was a via-only definition product where all interconnects were specified with one mask (and the via masks were among the cheapest to make since they are very uniform).

In regular ASIC development, we've had extra unrouted transistors available to wire in case of a mistake (so hopefully the respin involved just some new metal layers). Techniques like FIB can be used to test fixes to lower the number of respins, too. I'm not sure how much of this was automated to maximize chances of being useful.

Ah no, sorry I was so lost in my thoughts and explained badly.

I was taking in the context of Termux app for Android, nothing to do with proot itself. Termux uses apt and deb repos, and provides a patched proot. I wanted to add a package similar to one I linked.
I mean can't you just have the input signal to the light be a disjunction of signals? So it's on if the camera is on OR if some programmatic signal says turn it on?

I don't see why they should be mutually exclusive
It’s a bit of a hassle, but after closing the Windows command, you can restart the program and use it indefinitely. The results you worked on will still remain in the workspace folder.
We won't save ourselves.

Ask HN: Good CMS for Hierarchical Multi Tenant Apps
Does anyone have experience with Headless CMS solutions that work well with Multi tenant apps.

I manage 8 regional websites that are the same basically but with regional differences in Text and images.
Lets call these 8 "child tenants". And I thought about having a Headles CMS structure where I create a parent tenant that provisions all fields for the child tenants. And child tenants inherit the fields from the parent tenant and can use it as is but also override it.

My goal would be to have generic texts set in the parent tenant but with variables. Where in the frontend variables are replaced with regional values. And if a child tenant overrides the field it gets replaced. But the child tenant can also reset the field to inherit the value from the parent tenant again.

Sounds pretty niche and I tried doing it with payloadcms but the hierachical tenant structure is nothing that is supported out of the box I guess.

Any ideas or help is appreciated!
This is why I like a self built PC over laptops. Now I'm sure there's still some way to spot on me via a PC with no built in camera or microphone but I bet it's more difficult.

I do have a laptop and it have a physical cover I can slide into place. Short of black blutack I've not got a decent option for the mic though.
Yes, I think for your use case they work fine. I also read a review from a father that watches his kids while listening to things on the OpenFit.

However, outside with noise, I find them unusable.

Full vertical integration implies big iron, or something like it. Nobody is going to buy TI 45nm today when 3nm exists and runs circles around it, no matter how good the software is.

Old nodes are fine for a lot of industrial applications, but they don't care about the full stack software as much.

The best seem to be those contracting the sand out and doing the rest. Nvidia, AMD, and all the new AI players.

Intel probably has the best chance at full vertical, but from everything I read it seems to be suffering from the same bloat IBM suffered.
This makes me wonder if society would be improved by radical life-extension therapies or technologies. Detractors generally say it would result in stagnation, but at least people would have a very good incentive to think long-term if they knew they had a good chance of still being alive in 200 or 1000 years and having to deal with the long-term effects of current policy.

So public places sucks? I like being able to talk about whatever I want when I walk around with friends, if someone tells me I have to go home to talk about that it would suck.

Since this works in public I don't see why it couldn't work online. All you need is anti harassment policies etc just like in reality, not anti speech.

Ultimatum democracy is a natural extension of selectorate political theory. Selectorate theory assumes a politician’s primary motivation is to remain in power. Helping people is secondary.

Ultimatum democracy applies this insight, allowing voters to collectively give an ultimatum: either enact my policies or we will vote to remove you.
Often the version string is baked somehow into the artifact. If it contains volatile data that is not functionally dependent on the source (the when and how) it prevents the build from being reproducible.

My opinion is that the pure semver should be part of the source and be baked in the artifact. Date and build metadata should be recorded close but separate from the artifact.
