What's the benefit of this over, for example, MagicSchool which my school is continually pushing on us and is free?

This next bit is going to sound a bit harsh or confrontational, but trust I'm coming at it with a good heart of hope. I'm a bit on edge about pushing AI for grading. Teachers are... not technically literate folk. They won't understand the nuance of AI and using it to grade student work seems like heartache and disaster in the making. Are you doing anything to somehow subvert the fundamental nature of LLMs to make it suitable for grading?
I think that's because it is.
Thanks, that is very nice setup.

I am really happy to see some more exploration in the typesafe-db-access-in-Rust space.

> The existing libraries don't provide the compile time guarantees that I want and are verbose or awkward like SQL.

Worth noting: diesel definitely fulfills the "providing compile time guarantees" criteria.

Here's where I stand on the inevitable ORM-vs-no-ORM debate that's about to erupt: I like typesafe query builders that don't abstract over sql ( I'd put diesel in this category, and i would not put activerecord or djangos orm or sealORM in this category).

It looks like rust-query will lean towards the full-ORM side of that spectrum. Not my cup of tea, but the tea industry can accommodate many flavors :)
It's still brainrot, it's just on the opposite end of the political spectrum.
I think the greatest concern is that the cops don't seem to care about personal privacy at all. They'll do anything that's physically possible to do to prove guilt of a person, they have the Power of The State behind them. They're going to get access to this technology and they will use it to stop vehicles, it's simply a matter of time. Police in the US only ever get more powerful, more militaristic, more immune to consequences. There's an easily visible path from where we were before the bill to where the poster (incorrectly) claims we're at. Just because they don't currently have the power doesn't mean we should be taking every affordable step towards giving it to them.
I like how it has a suitably ASML price as well.
The goal of double entry accounting is to enable an audit of the ledger and catching errors by the bookkeeper.

Think about how you're going to do that with your concept. You will likely end up with something extremely close to what double entry accounting is after a few iterations
My first Rust PR was for a Diesel Plugin crate, their macros weren't updated with Rusts newer spec.

I honestly really enjoyed Diesel but it's extremely slow migration to async really made it lose traction.

I've used SQLx extensively for projects after that and it was pretty decent.
I guess the Germans attitude has a lot to do with shitstorms, e.g. a recent one that pushed the victim to suicide. Some people behave really nastily if they believe they're safely anonymous.
That’s really expensive to do, so in practice only wealthy humans or corporations can do so. Still seems unfair.
I suspect that bsky will have very Twitter like problems as it scales. Still might check it out before that happens.

I work on old systems with big parallel buses, so a while ago I bought a big HP 16500C chassis with something like 128 logic analyzer channels.

It can handle a full 68000 bus no problem, but it’s cumbersome and unwieldy. (The X11 interface mentioned in the article is nifty though, I remember having the same issue with fonts.)

I love my Saleae and even the cheap USB logic analyzers work fine with Sigrok. But everything is either 8 or 16 channels.

I realize it’s a niche-of-a-niche use case, but is anyone making USB logic analyzers with 64+ channels at a hobbyist price point (or DIY)?

I'm guessing that car is "drive-by-wire" via the throttle, which has not been an actual cable in most cars for decades at this point. Steer-by-wire is indeed just the cybertruck at this point afaik.
> 3. A common format

I'm not convinced this is possible. Text is simple which is why it is easy to make multiple editors. Most other things are not.

For example imagine structured drawing programs. Some might support circles, others might support ovals. If the 2nd one writes an oval and the first one doesn't support ovals then it's no longer portable. You can't think of all the features you could possibly want therefore you can't have a portable format. Even for the same features, one app might store a circle as center+radius and another as left corner+right corner of it's bounding box, and yet another as center+widthRadius+heightRadius and another as center+angleOfRotation+2radiuses and another as radius+group(scale/rotation/position)

You can see this issue throughout structured drawing programs. Illustrator,Affinity Design, Inkscape. They might all export/import to SVG but they lose all the data that makes them editable because every app supports different features and or similar features but defined in different ways.

Even pixel image formats are not portable for all the same reasons. Yes you can load/save a PNG from any image editor. But, generally, trying to load the apps own format, the one where it's still in a more editable format, into another editor is at best a lossy feature and usually not supported. It's lossy, because the editor doing the loading doesn't support every feature of the other app. For example, Photoshop supports "smart layers" (layers where the data is not rasterized into the layer but rendered on demand). Those layers can contain PDFs. So your app needs a PDF renderer to load and render them and keep them editable.

Node editors will arguably have all the same issues. The simplest example is that they might all support different widgets inside the nodes. A music node editor might show waves, or knobs. A graphics node editor might show a spinible cube/sphere preview. A node editor for tablets will also likely have a different UX.

Highly recommend using solarassistant for this, instead - local server software that install on a raspi, and you hook a usb on the raspi to the WiFi dongle port on your inverter with a serial cable. Don’t provide the inverter itself with any wifi credentials.

Solar assistant has the bonus of interfacing your inverter with homeassistant, and letting it control the inverter/get signals from it (so you can do things like, if grid voltage drops to zero, do xyz)
There is some evidence that Omega 3s lower cardiac inflammation. If I was you I'd think about self experimenting with sauna & cold baths as well.

I think you'd want to eat an extremely clean diet to lower inflammation and get your immune system to turn off. I'm no expert, but that's the way I'd think about it
Disrupting the Citrus Industry
It is possible to grow citrus trees in greenhouses powered by renewable energy like geo thermal, solar thermal, bio gas, biomass or even compost. Building these greenhouses across the Midwest and near population centers. Citrus farmers are already having a hell of a time with citrus greening disease and this would be perfect to put the farms in a climate the big can’t go. The green houses could be also grow other crops in between the trees like lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and herbs. And an online farmers market place could then be built with the greenhouses providing product to sell on the app year round.
Trivia: I looked through old sales brochures and did the math and calculated that the price of that HP 16500C new, adjusted for inflation, would be over $80,000. I paid $200, and I’m sure there are plenty that people have just given away for free.
And when I say "intense", I mean it: the integrated neutron flux the first wall of a DT fusion reactor would be exposed to over its operational lifespan is comparable to, or even greater than, that experienced by components of a nuclear weapon in the brief interval of a nuclear explosion.

There are only three ways to avoid being in an echo chamber:

- Use a system that allows you to choose your sources and choose to follow a diverse set of content

- Use a system that does not allow such choice and trust that its algorithm supplies a diverse set of content

- Don't use social media

I happen to choose the last one, but between the other two I believe user choice is more important. Musk has put his right wing thumb firmly on X's scale so that rules it out imo. Anywhere that respects your choices is only an echo chamber if you make it one.
To be fair, it’s hard to make a 2nd amendment argument that doesn’t allow private ownership of muzzle loading black powder cannons.

That wouldn't be wise. Everyone who does everything in the cloud (a.k.a. other people's computers), like Ms 365, Teams, Youtube, Tiktok, Instagram, Google Mail, Google Maps, Google Spreadsheets, WhatsApp, etc, ... should think twice. There is no gain for them. It's all outside of their control anyways. They gave away their sovereignty to the point the OS does not matter at all. They should stay where they are and not burn their (and others') time with learning a new OS. Linux doesn't need those people, and those people don't need Linux. Make more Insta Reels instead. Everyone is happier then.
You might want to send in a correction to the LWN article then, since the wording there is giving the wrong impression.

SQL, while not great, does have some advantages that are hard to beat:

- Everyone knows at least some basic SQL, even non-technical users have often encountered it in some form.

- The documentation for eg. PostgreSQL is for SQL, so if you write queries in anything else you have to mentally translate back and forth, and so you need to know SQL anyway.

- Any external tools you use to interact with the database will use SQL.

- Changing the queries doesn't require an expensive compilation step - `sqlx` gets the best of both worlds in this respect, in that it is able to type-check the parameters and rely on the database itself to validate the query, so you don't end up with a ton of type-system shenanigans that increase compilation times.

Maybe for a brand new database, a better query language could win out, but having used sqlx I can't imagine going back to a query-builder style interface for existing SQL databases.
The power density of the reactor vessel of a conventional large PWR is close to 20 MW/m^3 (inverse of 0.05 m^3/MW); a BWR is around half that. The peak power density in a PWR's core is around 100 MW/m^3.

NuScale integrates the steam generator in the "reactor" so the volume is larger, but this means using it is comparing apples and oranges. NuScale's design is also intended to use natural convection instead of forced circulation in accident conditions. This further reduces the power density allowed.

NuScale isn't a scam, but it appears to be founded on faulty principles (that the thing holding back nuclear power was safety concerns, rather than cost) so its business case doesn't appear to be working.

Title is a bit misleading and makes it sound like Sol-Ark did this. They did not. Title should be "Deye manufacturer reportedly disables all Deye inverters in the US". They are the same entity but this wording avoids confusion about Sol-Ark being responsible.
The academic entrepreneur phenomenon is an absolute sink, but it exists for a reason and ought to wake people up,

Universities put a lot of pressure on faculty to win grants, and take 60-70% of the proceedings for “overhead”, which is supposed to fund less sellable research and provide job security but is, in practice, wasted.

You have to be a fundraiser and a seller if you want to make tenure, but if people are forced to basically put up with private sector expectations, can you fault them when they decide to give themselves private sector pay?

How Natural Gas Is Enabling the Renewable Energy Boom
Depending on what database you're using, you might be able to restructure your dynamic queries to fit a static form...

WHERE
...
AND CASE WHEN ? IS NULL THEN TRUE ELSE col ILIKE ? || '%' END
AND CASE WHEN ? IS NULL THEN TRUE ELSE col2 IN (?) END

Each "dynamic" parameter is then bound twice. (My personal preference is to use a CTE to bind and name my parameter values in the query instead of binding multiple times whenever possible).

Because the law considers scale.

It's legal for you to possess a single joint. It's not legal for you to possess a warehouse of 400 tons of weed.

The line between legal and not legal is sometimes based on scale; being able to ingest a single book and learn from it is not the same scale as ingesting the entire published works of mankind and learning from it.

How to Remove Watermarks Perfectly Using Flux Tools (Workflow Included)
I started an AI consulting biz a couple months ago. We used a TON of stock photos to get off the ground, but I didn't have enough money to pay for them. So when Flux Tools came out last week, I got an idea...

“What if I erase the watermarks and use the Flux Tools’ inpainting model to fill in the gaps?”

Long story short, it works perfectly.

Just an, uh, writing style note:

> Unavailable interviewers provide a thumb and a brief written summary of feedback to an independent third party beforehand. Yes, I said a thumb.

If you're going to do leave the reader in suspense like this—and I do think it's fine and even healthy to leave them momentarily perplexed—you need to add a little more information. For example: "Yes, I said a thumb. This will make sense in a moment."

Maybe it's my own morbidity, but combined with the article title, my initial thought was that I must be reading parody. Surely the author doesn't really believe people should cut off their thumbs as punishment for missing the meeting!

> As for the reprocessing part, I think you are jumping the gun.

The problem is that if the pebbles aren't reprocessed, you now have to store their very large volume. The moderator, graphite, is integrated into them. This is unlike a LWR, where the moderator is water that the spent fuel can be simply lifted out of (after cooling). LWR fuel can be stored after a few years into dry casks; the equivalent for pebbles would be vastly larger and more expensive, and involves storing the spent fuel with its moderator, increasing concerns of criticality (although I imagine they'd be doused with borate or something to prevent that).
It's really nice to be able to check whether the state of your power is at home before you go there if there's a question.

Adding to that. Shitstorms aren't the only thing.

Fake news, slander and so on also matter in Germany. There's an ongoing affair for example, someone posted a fake quote back in 2016 and eventually was sentenced to prison for it. (Basically, "x said y" except that the whole thing was a slanderous invention.) People still keep reposting the shit even now, and the Germans don't like that kind of thing.

I think that anyone who wants to defend pseudoanonymity needs to look closely at how to dininish the number and magnitude of shitstorms, prosecute swatters reliably and generally get a grip on the negative consequences of pseudoanonymity.

I'd say "-site:reddit.com" helps a lot. And also "-site:youtube.com" and some others :)

Admittedly, I usually do the exclusion in my brain and not actually via the search query.

I don't know where the hype comes from, which says that reddit posts are particularly smart and useful. Maybe just from their own marketing, which is repeated over and over in social media by these 'smart' guys?! It's completely not reflected by my practical experiences at all.

When I accidentally end on a reddit thread and read some posts, I'm always like "Well, and that's it? What a waste of time..."
Almost every early electronic throttle like that drives like pure ass, and newer ones are hit or miss at best. Toyota seems have done a decent job with it, but everyone else kind of keeps pooching it.

That falls in with a lot of stuff that felt like it might have made sense on race cars that I don't understand why people keep asking for on street vehicles (drive by wire throttle, CVTs, huge wheels with rubber band tires, certain kinds of traction and stability control, viscous coupled or electronic "all wheel drive" (not 4WD), along with the Subaru boxer 4 people get Stockholm syndrome over); all I can figure is that people are just OK driving stuff that drives and behaves like total shit.
