We haven't needed this for the most time. I'm not spending on AC for a few days per year where it's really hot while it's really not most of of the year.

Besides: I'd rather put sedum/green stuff on our flat roof, which also helps insulate a little bit in winter but really really helps in summer.
Wonders why raku is not really mentioned in the discussion?

Then I remembered my daily mantra:

- NO_ONE cares about the community
- WHAT_THEY_NEED is UniCode & Rats
- WHAT_THEY_LIKE is poetry (not golfing, but an expressive professional medium not desecrated by ‘public void’ line noise)
- WHAT_THEY_KNOW is CPAN, DWIM and REGEX (the easy is easy and the hard is possible)
- WHAT_THEY_WANT is Grammar, Functional, OO, Declarative, Concurrency, Dynamic Type … oh and Procedural done v clean
- WHAT_THEY_HAVE is PHP, Ruby, Python, C#, Go, Perl5, ECMAScript, Java — demand for raku is pent up.

So, I detect some natural frustration within and without the community. Keep the faith. We have a new audience, they value truth and beauty, and a story of battling the odds. They need this TECHNOLOGY. It is [perl6 | raku] – who cares. It may have to start in academia, it may have to start in the p5 stalwarts. It will ignite. Finish the journey. Do not deny your heritage.

OSRAM has now made an LED retrofit kit for halogen reflectors that is approved and road legal everywhere in the EU - it's just very expensive for the time being, I'd have a hard time justifying it.

In Germany, the TV-cable based ISP all have started deploying CGNAT.

If you live in a densely populated area with many Vodafone customers, their CGNAT gateways tend to be overloaded, so in peak hours you sometimes experience packet loss.

Of course Vodafone won't admit that it's a structural problem instead of isolated cases.

At one point, I was forced to use a shitty DSL provider, "e-on highspeed" (formerly "Innogy") because they had exclusive rights to the VDSL DSLAM in my area.
For a while, they didn't even offer IPv6 alongside the CGNAT v4.
And when they did, it broke randomly (remote gateway dead).

By the way, does anybody have a clue on how to get SLAAC addresses into local DNS?
I can't create static records because my current ISP keeps changing my assigned prefix.
I'm still on v4 for my local fileservers and stuff like that because of this problem.
Awesome! Really liked the animations!!
The charged stuff confused me a bit. I played on mobile so the popup is different from the desktop one, maybe a testing area.

Perhaps consider having the HP as HP bars, as other games do!

Well done
But no package would ever make it back as none would be sent to the gateway and even then the gateway would send it to the local network.

After Action Review of the Covid-19 Pandemic
>I don't think anyone is seriously claiming that there is no innovation whatsoever in the EU.

I never said that. Please follow HN rules and reply to the strongest interpretation of one's argument, not the weakest.

The EU economy was at the same level as the US economy 15-20 years ago., now it's only half the US. The EU missed out on all the major technological innovations in that time and therefore missed out on a lot of income for welfare while welfare expenses only grew due to ageing population and increasing cost of living.

>Falling behind the US doesn't mean there is absolutely nothing.

No, it means less money for welfare. Especially with an ever increasing ageing population. If you want to take care of all of those people at a high quality of life, it's gonna cost you, and we don't have that kind of money anymore.

So you either get Europeans to accept slowly sliding into poverty due to declining welfare and rising CoL, OR, you need to bring in more money to the state somehow. Previously it was done in Europe via slavery and theft through colonialism, but since that conveyor belt of free money is gone and what's left to bring in more money is innovation in highly profitable high-growth industries where EU is almost absent. No, ASML, Airbus and some struggling German mittlestand companies can't support a whole continent like they did in the 1980's.

>I think a lot of people in the EU would be fine with being 3rd on "productivity" if it was enough to maintain a high standard of living and decent competitiveness.

They would be fine, if those losses would come out of the pockets of tax dodging corporations, but they're not, they're being eaten up by the working class and the taxpayer who still expects the same welfare quality like in the good ol' days when the EU economy was as strong as the US.

Do you you see how this level of welfare is unsustainable without matching economic growth?

> DO NOT spam projects, open a handful of reports and then WAIT. You could run the script and open tons of reports all-at-once, but likely you have faults in your process that will cause mass-frustration at scale. Learn from early mistakes and feedback.

I saw something similar with wasm3, a project explicitly said to be in maintenance mode, because the maintainer is in the Ukraine and being busy with other stuff... I managed to triage and provide patches to some of them. The poster was doing fuzz testing by randomly generating WASM binaries. Once a crash was found, they just uploaded the binary as-was, with error message. Completely valid reports, but bad execution with context in mind.

This resulted in huge WASM binaries that could be reduced from thousands of instructions to ten with work. (Even that reduction could probably have been automated, which annoys me even more.) There were also duplicates because they posted 5-10 reports simultaneously, many with the same cause. This is something I feel they should have done ahead of posting.

> DO NOT submit reports that haven't been reviewed BY A HUMAN. This reviewing time should be paid first by you, not open source volunteers.

This seems like the most important point. LLMs are great for generating things. By all means, continue using them. Sometimes useful, sometimes not. It can be inspiring if used right. They are pattern matchers after all, and bug hunting is partially about finding patterns. However, GIGO, and they need a filter after.

I guess it’s highly dependent on the type of the tube. The documentation [1] for the 6N3P (the one Mike uses) talks about input resistance at 100 MHz, so the tube must handle at least as much.

AI hallucinations: Why LLMs make things up (and how to fix it)
Care to share how you get advertisers and how you track how many listeners you have?

I wonder how this compares to to the way online media works
> For example, my blog search engine, which indexes on the order of 500,000+ words across 1,000+ documents, can return results in < 10ms because the indices can be queried incredibly quickly.

This is odd. Let's do a back-of-the-envelope estimation. DDR4 bandwidth is at least 12GB/s. 500k words is around 3MB. So, reading this amount takes 0.25ms, ignoring CPU caches. It sounds reasonable to assume the matching algorithm can run in-between that speed and 40 times slower for the 10ms mark.

This is one example where precomputation is probably not needed: bruteforce if N is small enough.
You are right and the biggest asset here are executives and management that can:

1. Think

2. Know what is going on.

3. Effectively get the best from their people.

You want the whole org to engineer the right solution

Any metric that gets abused needs to be found and replaced. Companies should use metrics and be very respectful, curious and also suspicious of them. Even revenue!

I know companies that leave revenue on the table for strategy.

Finally quality is about probabilities. That test you wrote that takes 12s to run and flakes 0.1% adding 10 hours of build time a year ... what is the probability of it detecting a bug and what would the cost of that bug be. You need every engineer to think of that stuff. It is hard stuff to get right or even good.

I worked at places where a religion almost builds. People are hired to maintain those slow expensive unreliable tests! You want to improve that you now have politics!
From the New York Times: "How Polarized Politics Led South Korea to a Plunge Into Martial Law" [1]

> From the start [...] Mr. Yoon faced two obstacles.

> The opposition Democratic Party held on to its majority in the National Assembly and then expanded it in parliamentary elections in April, making him the first South Korean leader in decades to never have a majority in Parliament. And then there were his own dismal approval ratings.

> Mr. Yoon’s toxic relationship with opposition lawmakers — and their vehement efforts to oppose him at every turn — paralyzed his pro-business agenda for two years, hindering his efforts to cut corporate taxes, overhaul the national pension system and address housing prices.

and also

> Opposition leaders warned that Mr. Yoon was taking South Korea onto the path of “dictatorship.” In turn, members of Mr. Yoon’s party called the opposition “criminals,” and voters on the right rallied against what they called “pro-North Korean communists.”

> (Mr. Yoon echoed that language on Tuesday in his declaration of martial law, saying he was issuing it “to protect a free South Korea from the North Korean communist forces, eliminate shameless pro-North Korean and anti-state forces.”)

So basically, Mr. Yoon was unable to pass his agenda (as his party never had control of the legislative branch), and rather than continue to negotiate, he decided to impose martial law, label the opposition communists, and then ban the National Assembly from gathering (they gathered anyway).

Something I love about LiveView that is not mentioned often I think is how easy it makes full stack asynchronous processes.

Because it is so ludicrously easy to send an asynchronous event to a user's browser from the backend, it helps avoid the temptation to synchronously wait in the browser for the backend to finish a long process, which helps avoid creating big chains of synchronous calls on the backend which can cause so many issues.
> Why can’t people just zipper-in anyway?

Because people still think they're somehow going to arrive 30min faster by not merging one-by-one, ignoring the fact that by not letting others in they're actively slowing all other traffic down. Then have all other nervous drivers looking for the first opportunity to cut someone off because they're not going to be able to merge otherwise and you end up with all those crashes near the ends of merge lanes. It's a driving culture issue, varies by country.
Interesting related fact. Some plants like Spathiphyllum are known to remove formaldehyde from the air. This does not eliminate the need of a proper strong ventilation system, but indoor plants helping to protect people from cancer should be in each lab, for good measure.
I had access to a full copy of the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe on PC, and I remember finding myself to be the most creative player in that game, and I recall spending hours and hours and days and nights on it. I left it at one point when I started going to college, and after a long time again, I discovered OpenTTD.

I was very thrilled to find that this game has been ported to an open source project and also has an online system and community of players. I immediately signed up on a popular forum of players and played it competitively, discovered a lot of optimizations and had my fun again all the way. It was absolutely a refresh to see this game. I will end up teaching it to my kids when they come up to the right age again.

A timeless legend of a game, this is.
> If you don't, you'll get tired of Cloudflare's "checking if your connection is secure" becomes pretty tiring pretty quickly.

Is this really related? I'm on IPv4 and get these "checking if your connection is secure" all the time as well. I think that this is unrelated to CG-NAT, because, after all, Cloudflare does mostly use the browser's properties to determine if a manual check should be done (click the button...).
I absolutely loved it!

Didn’t try a tunnel but IPv6 works on my UDM, just not without IPv4. :)
I've never seen "2.5K" used colloquially and I see "2K" used everywhere all the time.
Just checked my Steamdeck and from the kde desktop settings ipv6 was entirely disabled. I just re-enabled ipv6 to let it auto configure an address and got ipv6 connectivity.
In hindsight, I misread you as saying that 128GB of RAM on a “basic GPU” is not technically feasible. My reply was to say it is feasible.

Intel is rumored to have a B770 GPU in development, but it was running late and then was delayed to next year since it had yet to tape out, so they are launching their B580 and B570 graphics cards, which had been ready to go for a while, now. That is why the bus size appears to have dropped across generations. Presumably, if they made a 512-bit bus version, it would be a 9 series card. They certainly left room for it in their lineup, but as far as leaks have been concerned, there is not much hope for one. I do not expect them to use anything other than GDDR7 on their battlemage cards.

As for a high memory ARC card, I am of the opinion that such a product would sell well among the local llama community. There might even be more sales of a high memory ARC card for inference than of the regular ARC cards for gaming given that their discrete graphics sales peaked at 250,000 in Q1 2023 before collapsing, which can be confirmed using the data here:

https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/discrete-gpu...

The market for high memory GPUs is surely bigger than that. That said, Intel is likely pricing their ARC GPUs at a loss after R&D costs are considered. This is likely intended to help them break into a new market, although it has not been going well for them so far. I would guess that they are at least a generation away from profitability.

Intel intends for its Gaudi 3 accelerators to be used for this rather than the ARC line. Those coincidentally have 128GB of RAM, but they use HBM rather than a DDR variant. Qualcomm on the other hand made its own accelerator with 128GB of LPDDR4x RAM:

https://www.qualcomm.com/news/onq/2023/11/introducing-qualco...

If my math is right, Qualcomm went with a 1024-bit memory bus and some incorrect rounding (rounding 137.5 to 138 before multiplying by 4) to reach their stated bandwidth figure. Qualcomm is not selling it through the PC parts supply chain, so I have no clue how much it costs, but I assume that it is expensive. I assume that they used LPDDR4x to be able to build a product since they were too late in securing HBM supply and even if they did, they would not be able to scale production to meet demand growth since Nvidia is buying all of the HBM that it can.
> it is cost of doing business and you can’t pass that shit off to customers

If a business doesnt pass on its costs of doing business to customers, they will go out of business. The cost doesn't need to be passed on as a fee or surcharge, but it does need to be passed on.
>Plus, do you want a 2nd hand GPU that was used for cryptomining 24/7?

...which will be most likely in better condition than anything that was used for, let's say, gaming...
Day 4 – Don't use Forsyth-Edwards Notation to play chess with LLMs
Thanks. Definitely more complicate than originally imagined.

A lot of this can be done automatically with time (eg, already built an auto-seat algo), but there is a reason the beta is focused on frequent fliers solving logistics problems and making repeatable decisions :) That said, think you'll be surprised by how well it optimizes already.

During beta onboarding, you make an account with all travel info (no need to parse this). Travelers also confirm their booking before purchase ("checkout" links to a page with all flight info in a lot more detail instead of 'access' link). And BonBook sends a confirmation email post-booking (required by federal regs).
In any case it's not true, batteries can be used too (I believe the dynamo regulation was true some time ago, but not currently).

> This discontinuity cannot be distinguished

It can be, though. I don’t see how the discontinuity bit is the defining factor.

Regardless equating humans with digital computers and using analogies like that doesn’t make a lot sense to begin with.
You're taking my argument in the direction I never intended, then taking the dicothomy to the extreme, and then claiming victory unsupported by evidence.

- I never wanted to contrast 'capitalism' and 'communism' or whatever. I merely wanted to point out that the fundamental absurdity of capitalism requiring infinite growth in a finite system has been resolved by having the growth of wealth coming from speculation on future unrealized value. Since I (or anyone else) can't predict the future, it might happen that things do not come to pass as they were expected and that future value might not be realized. Money is divorced from reality, it derives its value from the collective trust and belief by the people participating in the system that it can be exchanged for goods and services. In a system of rational and impartial actors, that belief is backed by chiefly existence of said goods (which is the real size of the economic pie) and less by the speculation of future potential that might or or might not happen. So in summary my argument is not between communism or capitalism, but a captialism that is backed by real world value and one that is backed by future speculation. Even if the former can create less economic growth, we can be certain that growth is real.

- Central planning works. Great public works certainly are dreamt up and funded by governments yet they contribute enormously to the wealth of nations and enable a lot of value to be created. The moon landing was centrally planned and executed by a country whose per capita wealth was on par with modern day Poland, yet is considered the greatest achivement in history.

- There are no real 'centrally planned' or 'free market' economies, as all countries employ both concepts to some degree. But if we were to make a argument, we could say that the US belongs to the 'free market' camp and China belongs the 'centrally planned' camp. Both countries are doing extremely well, this very discussion is about finding which one is actually doing better.

I think you fail to grasp just how big the US is. Driving from Chicago to Minneapolis is ~430 miles/ 6.5 hours depending on weather and traffic. Every 10 miles or so there is an exit and usually some small town. Every 50 to 100 miles a bigger town.

Why do people trot this out every time? Driving or traveling across the US isn't particularly relevant to most people's life experience. Ok, I'll bite.

Yes, the United States is big, but some areas are more dense than other and would need good heavy investment in public transit infrastructure. For example, the north eastern corridor would in particular benefit from investment in true high speed rail.

There's also the need for investment in freight infrastructure, especially if we want to take off more trucks off the road. This is a safety benefit too. Less vehicles on the roads just mean less people risking their neck.

Now let's talk more local public transit.

Atlanta for example, really need to expand heavy rail. Traffic there is one of the worst in the country. MARTA at time outpaces cars, even with all the stops they have to make. Rather, a lot of time is eaten up just waiting for the train. A more frequent schedule would help here, but Georgia would need to actually contribute funding to make this possible. If they extend it more into the surburb, I would have less of an incentive to move. As now, I am considering moving because of how frequent I commute into Atlanta.
The easiest way is to use a ULA on the LAN side instead of the ISP-assigned prefix, and set up NAT66 at the router to convert delegated prefix <-> ULA. It sucks having to use NAT with IPv6, but at least it'll be stateless NAT. Then when your delegated prefix changes you will only need to update the NAT rule, meanwhile everything within your LAN that was using ULA-prefixed addresses to talk to each other will continue working.

For my own homelab, I give all my machines and VMs static IPs instead of using SLAAC, which also makes it straightforward to register them in DNS, and memorize them in the worst case.
