Technical advances are driven by tech A solving need B. Some big bosses feel a need to fire people, so AI has them covered, but I think most phone users are unclear about what problem AI on the phone solves for them.
Not in the UK, you don't:

The standard library provides examples, including a "storage" example.

And now there are questions around the language being spoken, so to speak. That's the power of idioms – it avoids the reader needing to ask questions when encountering language that is new to them. But idioms are not the be all, end all. Sometimes they just don't fit. And if that's the case in your situation, no problem. Nobody knows your problems better than you. To listen to someone else tell you how to solve your own problems is foolish.

That is why I earlier wished we had seen some real code. Perhaps then we would understand the nuance that has lead to you choosing these particular tradeoffs. We have no sense of what problems you are actually trying to solve, and questions to try and glean greater insight have been left unanswered. As a rule, though, an overarching interface package with consumptor functions along with multiple implementation packages is preferable because then it avoids a lot of the questions developers are going to start asking.

For example, with the alternative suggested, what if I want to add a new storage adapter that conforms to your interface? Do I need commit rights to your package or should I create my own package that satisfies your exported interface? If I create my own package, why is it the lone implementation in its own package while the others are all rolled up in one package? Is it that you don't want third-party implementations for other services not covered by your package? Why is that? On and on...

If you stick to the idioms, those questions are already answered by convention.

I tried usteer on my recent wifi rebuild/updates, and I am for sure sticking with good old DAWN instead. https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/dawn

DAWN wasn't flawless out of box about choosing bands, and would sometimes trash a bit... but it generally worked great for the 3x r7800's I had. And it would generally help band steer people to 5ghz in useful ways.

Usteer has everyone packed onto 2.4GHz. With very rare exception. It just doesn't seem to bandsteer well at all, in my view.

Agreed that this should be a top priority, so so much. Bandsteer and multi-AP are very similar problem-sets; even if users only have a single AP they need good steering to have a good experience. DAWN has started making that a reality (well before usteer) and continues to be the only viable open source option for people right now.
Credit cards are bigger than you think. The CM5 is smaller (55mm x 40mm) than credit card (85mm x 54mm). You could almost get two on one credit card.

I always thought it was deceptive to compare regular Pi to credit card. But I just checked and credit card is almost the same size as regular Pi.

Is it me or is Reddit mostly bots now?
A lot of the comments I am seeing under posts seem just a bit off.

I am considering whether being on Reddit is worth it anymore? It doesn't have the same human-seeming environment it had 5+ years ago.

Does anyone have any recommendations as to a Reddit alternative?

Lemmy doesn't have the same number of diverse users that Reddit had during its pomp (it's mostly just Linux fans and technical people), and I do quite like the network effects of a diverse audience.

CRI should actually somewhat capture that. If your spectrum looks drastically different from daylight, it will affect color reproduction.

Voltage spikes from line inductance, voltage drop-outs from line resistance. Basically you have little reservoirs of charge scattered all around the board (current flow isn't instantaneous in a real circuit).

It helps to always think of current draw in a compete loop, out the "top" of the capacitor, through your IC, and back into the ground side (this isn't necessarily what's happening physically). Shorter loop means less inductance, shorter traces less resistance.
I was going to say "isn't Munificent still around?" :D

I wonder if you could make a "syntax v2" kind of thing, so it's a totally new syntax that you opt into (e.g. by a pragma at the top of files, or globally) that gets converted into the same IR.

Probably only worth doing once though to fix all of those things. And as you say, that's a ton of work for marginal benefit.

No, the compound is Cl-N-NO₂⁻

It combines a cloride with some nitrogens. Some compound with cloride are very toxic, some are sell as sweateners [1], so it's difficult for me to estimate how toxic this is.

I believe it's not strictly more decks, but also how often they shuffle. If they add 7 decks but don't shuffle until near the bottom, it's actually advantageous as the count can get very skewed (e.g. 50 cards left and 30 facecards remaining). However, with 7 decks and reshuffling halfway through the count doesn't reach as much relevance to the next card.
Also the argument they make is, they don't trust every single component of your machine, and want to mitigate the damage caused by an attacker or malware breaking in and impersonating you.
All that and you didn't mention how the political bent started. Musk voted for Biden in Nov 2020 after all.

Biden had an official govt EV summit in 2021 in his first year where Tesla wasn't invited, and he praised GM's CEO as the pioneer and leader of EVs when it produced 25 EVs that quarter and Tesla produced ~200K. A ridiculous thing to do stand there and just lie.

Why? Because the auto union that heavily donates to Dem campaigns didn't want Tesla there. It shows Dems don't care about the environment as much as you think if they just decide to throw a company that was doing a lot for the environment under the bus for purely political reasons, including almost excluding Tesla from the federal EV credits to help the unions. Musk got the message.

> I asked Denisov-Blanch if he thought his algorithm was scooping up people whose work contributions might not be able to be judged by code commits and code analysis alone. He said that he believes the algorithm has controlled for that, and that companies have told him specific workers who should be excluded from analysis because their job responsibilities extend beyond just pushing code.

It sounds like this measures "code monkey" productivity, right? Which is fine if you're only running it against your code monkeys, I guess - but how many of those can you possibly have?
i like stacker.news but its mostly bitcoin peeps
Same story, I can't wait to try this.
Allegedly their algorithm controls for that, and companies have explicitly given them a list of employees who can't be measured by commits alone:

Wow, TIL that if you're drafted (and forced to serve against your will), the government can subject you to military law (UCMJ), which limits many of your rights, like the right to a civilian trial by jury.

Courts have upheld this because Congress has the power to regulate the military, but it still feels like a huge shift in rights for someone forced to serve.

It feels... intuitively unjust that the government could compel service and then subject individuals to a system that limits their constitutional rights.
It sounds like you want more broad stuff, not necessarily learning how to train models. More like learning to use them and how they work.

One thing that I haven't seen discussed in the comments is the inherent vulnerability of S3 pricing. Like all things AWS, if something goes sideways, you are suddenly on the wrong side of a very large bill. For instance, someone can easily blow your egress charges through the roof by making a massive amount of requests for your assets hosted there.

While Cloudflare may reach out and say 'you should be on enterprise' when that happens on R2, the fact they also handle DDoS and similar attacks as part of their offering means the likelihood of success is much lower (as is the final bill).
In case of an accident, who will be held liable? Tesla Inc. or the poor sod driving remotely?
I'm starting to get "return to notepad++" vibes from HN today.
There's a true belief in crypto ultimately being how transactions are conducted, and there's a speculation hypothesis that more isolation means more extragovernmental transactions. That may or may not mean a higher price for tokens. So many people are hodling right now that it's more like an asset than a currency, so it's hard to say what its value would be if it were actually used as a currency.

As long as people have an appreciation mindset, it'll never actually be used as a currency since there's a disincentive to spend it. The price might just do what it does, and people use it for international transactions that are quickly converted to local currency.
IAM gets only a tiny mention as not present, therefore making R2 simpler. But also... IAM is missing and a lot of interesting use cases are not possible there. No access by path, no 2fa enforcing, no easy SSO management, no blast radius limits - just would you like a token which can write a file, but also delete everything? This is also annoying for their zone management for the same reason.

I think it could potentially be us too, though not sure. It was a very flexible product and we had a variety of use-cases. :)

We also had a lock screen app that you needed to play a tune on an instrument in order to unlock the screen. This too died because of Google maintenance burden (it had 500k downloads IIRC). Here's what I could find about that one: https://music-lock.en.softonic.com/android

Or for the mathematically inclined: How many n x n puzzles with unique solutions exists for a given size n?

n=1 is trivial, and n=2 it small enough to enumerate with 3^4 = 81 solutions, but many of them being degenerate (no solutions), but already n=3 is pretty bad with ~20.000 possible puzzles. I do not see an obvious path to compose solutions either and make use of some kind of structural induction.
The problem is that you might only find out they're important after you wipe them out, at which point it will be too late.
It's hard to say. It would be essentially the same thing they already did back in 2015, so there's precedent. But back then it happened IMO because they didn't think they were sufficiently prepared in economic and military terms to openly wage war, so Russia took as much as it could with the "northern wind" (the euphemism separatist forces used to refer to direct Russian involvement in combat) and then took a break to prepare for the real deal.

So I think now they would do it if they believe that taking another break would benefit them more than it benefits Ukraine. But, again, looking at post-2015 developments, it's not clear to me why they'd think that. The reason why their advance in the east was so much slower than elsewhere is that Ukraine had a massive effort to build fortifications and infrastructure around them under Poroshenko. It's why Ukraine could hold Avdiivka for so long despite it being less than 10 miles away from Donetsk, and it's partly why Russian losses are so high. Russia has managed to punch through that line in several places in this past year despite those high costs, but if they stop the advance now, that kinda defeats the purpose of that. And meanwhile if Ukraine could get some respite, they would surely spend a lot more resources on another defensive line along the new border, probably with significant Western assistance this time, as well (since "defensive" military aid generally enjoys higher popular support, countries like Germany might be more willing to do that even if they aren't willing to send more tanks and missiles). As well as building new munition factories etc, likely also with Western defense companies involved. It would also mean the return of millions of Ukrainian refugees, reinvigorating their economy.

This all assumes that Russia wants to take as much Ukrainian territory as they can get away with, in the long term. But, given that the war literally started with them trying to capture Kyiv, I think it is a safe assumption. If they gave up on that goal since then, they wouldn't be pushing so hard now despite the losses.
Very possible! I actually have a 100MHz scope and sdrs that tune from 9khz to 2ghz, could be an interesting distraction on the weekend to see if that axis is any noisier than the others.
Two key points, which we probably agree on: (A) There are various flavors of social contracts. (B) Acceptance of any one social contract is a statistical thing, not a binary thing.

The most basic idea of a social contract is the legitimacy of a government to exist and function. This might mean to carry out various agreed-upon roles. And/or it might mean to operate according to some defined procedures, like the rule of law. The vast majority of people either consciously accept this or live as though they do. Of course there is variation on the proper role of government: does it include national defense, maintaining order, creating fair markets, collecting taxes, protecting civil liberties, internalizing economic externalities, investing in R&D, providing a healthcare floor, fighting corruption, etc?
This is very unlikely, but it would be interesting if Apple included HBM memory interfaces in the Max series of Apple Silicon, to be used in MacPro (and maybe the studio, but the Pro needs some more differentiation like HBM or a NUMA layout).
Ask HN: Why not use androids to colonize Mars initially and then humans later?

You can test people's memory if you want to, but it doesn't seem like that was the original intention behind the question. I'd suggest giving people advance notice for questions like this so that they can look through their past work and pick out some interesting cases. That way you don't select for people who randomly happen to remember something interesting within 30 seconds, or (more likely) people who are good at making things up. Surely the real point of the question is to talk about something interesting that someone has worked on, not to administer an ad-hoc and unscientific test of their memory.

As for strong emotional experiences, it seems obvious to me that people will have a wide range of different emotional reactions to their work. None of these reactions is inherently better or more correct than any other. Here I think you are falling into the common interviewer trap of judging people negatively for not being exactly like you.
There are things in life where amount paid is far from top priority, and phone is one these days. With sums we talk about, I just don't care anymore, and Samsung I have now is even more expensive and more wasteful.

Re wastefulness - a decent laptop causes 10x more pollution to manufacture than phone. Desktop PC 10x that. TVs. Cars. Clothing. Phones are very much down a very long line of higher priority targets for eco friendly approach.
Companies adopt different strategies when building Open Core products. Some aim to keep the Open Source portion minimal, reserving the most valuable features for their paid versions. At Keep, we chose the opposite path—moving nearly everything into Open Source. Our philosophy is that most users should be able to fully benefit from the Open Source version.

While I understand (and share) the caution around licenses, I don’t think this concern applies to Keep. With 99% of our codebase under the MIT license, it’s a far cry from just having "parts of the code with an open source license."

I recommend running Keep locally and comparing the Open Source version to the playground where full version is running. You might find it challenging to spot the differences.

I also reccomend comparing Keep Open Source to BigPanda and Moogsoft. It may be surprising how much of it Keep OSS, real MIT-licensed Keep has.
