From the gaming side of things, I'm disappointed that Intel and AMD are focusing on the midrange market going forwards. I'm on Linux with a 6900XT and wasn't going to upgrade until there's a compatible option with acceptable raytracing performance (and when HDR is finally sorted out). The 4090 and other high tier cards are absurdly expensive, would be good to have competition in that segment.
I remember reading that these tests only worked like 40% of the time in cases that later proved to be positive posthumously.

Tests for viruses usually either measure the immune response (which rabies doesn't trigger) or try to catch the virus RNA/DNA in a sample, but that requires the virus to be present in that specific sample. Rabies is extremely stealthy, it's not necessarily present in either urine or saliva, so these tests effectively are either "positive" or "unknown". Even if you take sample of nerve tissue you may not hit the infected piece because it spreads very slowly and non-uniformly.

Idea for any weather app: integration with driving directions via Google Maps API or OSM. Going on long trips without this is super dangerous on a motorcycle but all drivers could benefit. It's easy to optimize for minimizing dollars or time spent, but optimizing for minimizing chances of death due to weather is lacking.
6 years, what a journey. Still remember these first demos :)

I think this is my favourite piece of tech. And a lot of success stories, but would also love to hear if anyone ran into huge problems and had to ditch it? There are some footguns but overall I loved writing apps with LiveView, feels like magic.

Content Marketer 2x Unicorns and Stem Educator Seeking Startup Advice
I’ve worked as a content marketer for 2x unicorns and also spent a couple of years at an EdTech company as an STEM educator for an online middle school. I have 5 years of STEM teaching experience in schools too. Now, I’m trying to look for startups and work for a meaninfgul one!
What types of companies should I reach out to, and what should I pitch to them? What would companies find value in me? Some reasons I can think of pitching them are:
* Pitching EdTech companies to create engaging content with my marketing and STEM experience.
* Pitching AI/tech companies to develop user-friendly educational tools and campaigns.
* Pitching growth-stage startups to scale marketing strategies and grow customer bases.
Heh, grades served as a good barometer for me to know how much effort I needed to put into the boring classes to pass them. My transcript is a nightmare, high 50s and low 60s in the "easy classes", high 90s in the hard/interesting classes. And then a bunch of really fun/challenging extracurricular stuff that used to get a line or two on my resume when I was a fresh grad.

Thank goodness that the only employer to have ever cared was one where many of my extracurricular friends already worked and vouched for me. The only other time my transcript has actually mattered was when I went back to grad school; my overall average was about 2% too low for the good funding and I had to spend a semester working a lot of hours at the undergrad homework help desk until my first semester MSc. grades came in and qualified me for a significantly better stipend with less hours spent on other people's homework.
Incidentally I noticed in India most fast food shops have enough spare workers to clean tables for you. So you don't have to clean your own table.
The native languages of roughly half the global population isn't exactly "knotted cords from the inca empire." As for whether it can be in a layer below the text editor... probably not, but even then, someone has to write it and talk about why determining "how many glyphs wide is this sequence of bytes" is an interesting question with a complex answer worthy of study.

And today the answer to that question means "maintain a very large and dynamic dataset of the world's written languages" which makes it unpalatable to "low level" software, like the standard libraries of every PL that I'm aware of.
Ask HN: Is your company's interview process organized and fair?
Hi everyone,

My teammate and I have spent quite some time interviewing candidates at various companies, and we've often found the process to be messy and sometimes unfair. Different interviewers for the same position may ask different questions, leading to evaluations based on personal opinions.

We've also seen many interviewers struggle - they might not know what questions to ask, forget to support stressed candidates, find it hard to evaluate objectively, and often dislike writing detailed feedback afterward.

We're building a product to address these problems. Our goal is to help hiring teams organize the interview process by planning questions for all rounds, encouraging every interviewer to ask similar questions, assess the same skills, and evaluate every candidate using consistent criteria.

We'd love your input to help shape the future of our product. If you can, please share your thoughts:

• Have you experienced these or other issues in your company's interviewing process?

• Is the interviewing process well-organized at your current or past company?

• What software, if any, you or your company use?

===

P.S. Despite the hype around AI interviewers, we believe final decisions should always be made by people, see https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/ai-interviewers-future-hiring-hirezen-app-yhdgc

It's not my problem I am merely volunteering an alternative view point in a public form (unless my tax dollars are paying for it then it is my problem).

As mentioned above we already have a 100% effective solution. Problem == solved, however the solution is unacceptable to our modern society. The fact that people balk at the idea shows that they care more about base desires than their own health then turn around and demand that someone else fixes their mistake.

I mean for goodness sake, we are decriminalizing knowingly infecting other people. That's the opposite of helping. How can someone give informed consent if their partner is allowed to lie about their condition?

i think much of the concern we have learned over the past few years is that it isn’t only the scary bogeyman of “states” that is terrifying.

the authoritarian power just a few people can have from their riches can be even more terrifying and even more abusive.

again, i’m not arguing for state abuse, but state abuse is absolutely and incredibly not the only power which abuses.
Genuine question: wouldn’t server-based frontend JS apps be susceptible to the same issue?

Of course, if your JS app isn’t server-based and can run non-trivial logic on the client, then it’s going to work better than a LiveView app.
As a programmer, I feel the 'fundamentals' are very important. Because, well, then there's no magic.

I think the curriculum hides the code because its just so complicated. For example, just to build on the web he has to learn 3 different languages (HTML, CSS, JS). To do anything simple (like move a box on a screeen) there are too many choices (animated gif, CSS animation, JS animation, etc). Then there's complexity of code management (eg: this game uses just 1 big file) or deployment (how do you "run" your code).

So I believe simplifying things (i.e. Scratch) is a way to get people to do it without getting scared of the complexity. In our case, the goal is to learn the complexity, just in baby steps.

Appreciate your comments!

Intel has only had discrete GPUs on the market for 2 years. I guess that is a plural number of years, but only barely.

That would require competently produced documentation. Intel can't do that for any of their side projects because their MBAs don't get a bonus if the tech writers are treated as a valuable asset.
This all boils down to something called "substantive due process", which goes back to a 1905 case where a New York law restricting a baker's working hours was ruled unconstitutional because there was no public interest in what evolved into an implied right to privacy.

Procedural due process asks the question "did the government follow proper procedure?" whereas substantive due process asks "does the government have an interest in this issue?"

So this was a key pillar in Roe v. Wade as the Court (theN) ruled that the government has no interest in what a woman does with her own body for the first trimester. As such, laws against abortion were unconstitutional. Critics at the time said there were other ways to construct a legal framework to protection abortion access.

Anyway, this implied right to privacy had all sorts of implications that the conservative judges don't like. Loving was based on both substantive due process and equal protection so it gets a little complicated.

Furhter complicating this is the Respect for Marriage Act (2022), which codified things like interracial and gay marraige.

But all sorts of rights we take for granted are built on substantive due process so as soon as the court dismantles that doctrine, the genie is out of the bottle. It's not that Thomas would necessarily vote to overturn Loving (particularly because of other complications mentioned above) but once you set the precedent, certain things become inevitable.

Contraception is probably the next thing to be under attack, particularly because there is an effort to define contraception as an abortion, both from a political and legal POV. Mifepristone will almost certainly be outlawed. Don't be surprised if the oral contraceptive pill also ends up illegal in red states too.

There's gonna be million artificial minds of various levels of capacity before the first human mind is accurately simulated.

At that time we are going to be accustomed to glitching artificial minds creates, modified, bugged, debugged that current moral conundrums "is the copy me or not", "is it ok to create a hobbled copy of someone" are going to be as quaint bit akin to counting angels on a head of the pin. Mangled and molded consciousness will be as mundane as computation itself.

As a recovering language lawyer, I need to point out that what you are describing is not portable behavior because it is writing to one member of a union and reading from a different member, if I understood you correctly.

That's kind of what I was driving at since a law with no real enforcement is not really worth having. Leaving laws so vague because the tech is still too new to really know how it will be used is also a bad excuse. If the adtech industry could not have survived with strong privacy laws, then it's not an industry that society needs.
I think FOSS really only works well for infrastructure type of projects, things where the customers are downstream programmers or at the very least very technical sysadmin types and power users who can understand the gory details to some reasonable depth. Those projects work because they are centered around proven abstractions that are broadly applicable, thus allowing for a tight charter and some stability in requirements.

End user software by comparison, has not really been successful in the FOSS model. There have been many attempts, but they perenially lag behind commercial offerings, and thus primarily see adoption from the ideologically motivated and/or very cost sensitive users.
Well, in addition to near-real time, polling sucks at sparse workloads. Waking up to do work can be pretty wasteful with spiky or infrequently used but still important actions, and are arguably easier to set up, despite the hemming and hawing of this article, across system boundaries. But I do agree that webhooks are not the thing I really want to reach for with mission critical, high load integrations unless I feel like torturing my future self.
But how would we get our enemies to take them?
The Real World Technologies forum is still an absolute gold mine for hardware discussion.

As for articles, IMO, Chips and Cheese is the closest thing we have to Anandtech or RWT in their peak.
nice work.

if you want more of a challenge try a compiler compiler that can compile itself... :)

i got pretty far with this myself, although it doesn't work for weirdo languages like Python that need an exceptional lexer. i keep meaning to revisit this problem, since the tools in this space are pretty much non-existent or trash quality.

Thanks. Built this sim in a few days. Iterating the beta since summer.
I'm excited to try this device out with Arch and Waydroid. It seems perfect for a number of tasks, being small and light enough to pack anywhere, while having a full keyboard and the ability to convert to a tablet.

I've always wanted something like this for reading recipes and watching videos while cooking, learning and doing new home improvement projects, researching electrical code, auto repair, etc. Kind of like a larger, more useful "phone" that's not as impractical to carry around as a mid-size laptop. It also seems like a nice rig to pack for on-call.

The beefy Zen 5 chip options and top end specs are icing on the cake. I hope GPD doesn't botch any important bits.
Thanks. That is quite a heavy stack!
Taking ownership is very much egoless! You are doing that for the team.

Ego would be making sure you got "your" sprint tickets done, did no code reviews, skipped the retro. I think few people do that but they will if Goodhart's Law happens.
Stateless code makes for boring programs, but stateful code can be difficult to roll back.

As a toy example, imagine a database with columns for `first name` and `last name` and an update that combined them into a single `full name` column. That's going to be tough to revert for users signing up with just their full names.
Rust9x update: Rust 1.84.0-beta
Well, IIUC it's a bit more "having more than 12GB of RAM and raising the price will let it run bigger LLMs on consumer hardware and that'll drive premium-ness / market share / revenue, without subsidizing the price"

I don't know where this idea is coming from, although it's all over these threads.

For context, I write a local LLM inference engine and have 0 idea why this would shift anyone's purchase intent. The models big enough to need more than 12GB VRAM are also slow enough on consumer GPUs that they'd be absurd to run. Like less than 2 tkns/s. And I have 64 GB of M2 Max VRAM and a 24 GB 3090ti.
There were a lot of generations after Sandy Bridge which didn't have it; Sandy Bridge was just one generation that didn't really support it on the consumer side.

Consumer boards and CPUs didn't really support it well until after 2018. I upgraded away from a Zen+ system because it didn't support it.
Note that this record setting flight to 143km did not use an off the shelf motor. They built their own motor, integrated into the airframe for lightness and to reduce the cross section. Ammonium perchlorate propellant.
The problem with this sort of thing is that people can make good-sounding arguments on either side. I'd have interested to see more links to, like, correlational studies or something. Admittedly it's difficult to get anything out of these with high confidence, but I feel like you have to try.
That is bad mastering, not an inherent property of CDs.
Because designing a low end GPU with a very wide memory interface isn't useful for gaming, and that is where the vast majority of non-datacenter discrete GPU sales are right now.

They just had a new release a few days ago: https://dev.to/meteor/meteorjs-31-a-new-dawn-for-full-stack-...

I think the work being put to modernize it is showing results, but it needs to catch up in a few areas. Integrating Vite on it would go a long way, even if their syntax for dynamic imports stops being supported in the browser.

I still believe it's a very productive framework for building a B2B SPA with Node.js. It has an accounts system built-in. Reactivity just works and it's also built-in, and IMO it's way more useful for a SPA with a modest amount of users than SSR.

Dunno, who says a lot of effort was put into Rosetta 2?

It's mostly something that was needed in the first few years so you could run Chrome and Photoshop, but those have been ported now. It's mostly useful for running WINE but that's not super common outside games.

That said, a binary recompiler has a lot of uses once you have one: https://valgrind.org

Because their production capacity is much smaller than TSMC, it's declined over the past few years, and their newer nodes are having yield issues.
Interesting. Thanks for the details, and for the link to the React->htmx migration.
Intel has already bought and killed everything they need to compete here. They seem incapable of sticking to any market that isn’t x86. Likely because when they were making those acquisitions they were drunk on margin and didn’t want to focus anywhere else.

I don't understand this as a blanket rule either. My life is dramatically less expensive because of not having a car. I don't have to fill it with gas. I don't have to carry insurance. I choose not to have a car, and while somethings are less convenient it does not prevent me from existing. I have an ebike and it suffices for everything thing that is a necessity for me. For the other things, rental for a weekend away is very much a thing.

Now, for people that choose to live in the further reaches of suburbia where things are not nearly as close, then cars become more of a need. But that is a decision when location to suburbia or further was made.
