What you're describing is the same as in any market—wholesale costs less per unit than retail because there are enormous gains in efficiency for the seller when they don't have to deal with smaller units.

In the case of shipping, I'm not an expert but I do know a few of them:

* The amount of time per mile a human needs to spend handling that shipping container is lower, because there are only a few very long legs rather than many transfers.

* The amount of time per pound of goods a human has to spend handling the shipping container is much lower, because the container is moved all at once, where your cubic-foot package has to be handled individually.

* The fuel cost per pound of goods per mile is lower with the shipping container because it is usually transported by boat and train, which are far more efficient than the trucks used in last-mile delivery.

No, it's just an inspid rant. Let's pick a spot at random:

But at the same time the state somehow has money to house feed and medically care of millions of illegal immigrants

Do you honestly think the government is literally simply "housing" all the authorized immigrants? As in, literally writing checks to their landlords? And literally paying their grocery bills, each and every week? Do you actually think that's what's happening?

Remember, the rant wasn't referring simply to new arrivals, but literally to all the "millions" who have been here for decades. With the tacit approval of US society at large, for the simple reason that (authorized or not) the vast majority form an indispensible part of its workforce, doing the hard work that most Americans refuse to do.

I'm not saying the migrant crisis isn't a huge, costly mess. But for whatever is happening, I just don't get these weird, distorted and emotionally manipulative narratives.

I completely agree. I’ve had the privilege of working with a very small team of engineers—a team with diverse life experiences and unique areas of expertise but a shared work ethic: the willingness to try. We always said that most of our time was spent failing, and that’s what made the moments of success so rewarding. When we finally succeeded, it wasn’t just about the victory; it was the culmination of relentless effort that allowed us to push forward, improve our product, and refine our ideas.

Our approach was unique. We engaged directly with the people who did the work, learning from their insights and challenges, and built tools specifically for them. It wasn’t an Agile team or a Waterfall approach, or any other rigid corporate framework. It was an ad hoc team that came together organically to solve problems—and solved them faster than large corporations, consultants, or armies of workers ever could.

With just four people, we scaled applications, built automation systems, and tackled complex problems that delivered multi-million-dollar savings across the board. The process was simple: no micromanagement, no unnecessary oversight. Everyone contributed based on what made sense, and we all collaborated freely to solve problems as they arose, moving seamlessly from one challenge to the next. It was innovation through cohesion—a kind of synergy that can’t be forced or replicated through standard processes. It’s the magic of the right people, in the right place, at the right time.

Over the years, the tools we developed have grown into critical applications used by professional organizations, with over 3,000 users relying on them daily to make their work hundreds of percent faster. Yet, when these tools are handed over to large organizations for "modernization" or "corporatization," they often end up spending exorbitant amounts of money, adding no meaningful features, and making the tools less effective. Teams of 30 people fail to replicate what our small team accomplished. It’s a strange and frustrating reality.

I’ve tried to find ways to replicate this success, but I think it comes down to that intangible element—a “ragtag team” dynamic where the right people come together with a shared drive and passion. It’s rare, and perhaps it doesn’t exist as it once did. Maybe it’s out there, but we need to find ways to enable and foster it.
I get the point you're trying to make, and in some philosophical sense you're right. In reality though, people into a field are able to rank quality extremely well and it doesn't end up being the puzzle you're implying it is

> A: This is great! Perl is much maligned but a fantastic Swiss army chainsaw and still runs so much critical infrastructure.

You know, I hear this a lot (especially earlier in my career) but I _never_ ran into any system made in perl, ever. I started my professional career in early ~2010 and have been programming since ~2005.

Maybe they are just very black box-y and I don't even know that the underlying stack is perl?

I have often wondered if my eyes have become more sensitive to car headlights since covid, but it seems I'm not alone in this feeling. I frequently wear glasses with a blue light protective coating while driving on busy roads at night. Interestingly, I find that I don’t need them when the road is empty or when it’s a bright night.
They don't need to, they work anyway since we are still living in a capitalist nation where working pays off, that goes for both Europe and USA, you get supported by the state so you don't starve if you don't work but people still prefer working over not working thanks to the extra benefits you get.

Communist nations force people to work, there is no need for that in capitalist nations, people work for the extra rewards.
Bingo, everyone wants to pass the buck and blame some nefarious evil corp while they drive ever further out into the burbs, constantly vote to lower taxes and complain loudly whenever their communities try to do anything that might benefit everyone at the expense of the sight lines of a half dozen property owners. OP should ask a librarian who's the bigger threat, Walmart or their neighbors.
The video player on the site adds a vignetting effect (darkening the edges of the screen) to make the videos feel older, I think. If you click the date on a video you see the original on YouTube, without this effect.

Show HN: Flux: Simplify your Golang web app deployments
Hi all, I’ve recently been building Flux to make deployments a breeze, take a look!
I casted a inch-length semi cylindrical pendant out of old school solder and wore it around my neck on the bare skin for few days. I eventually stopped because I wasn't feeling to great after sleeping with it for some nights. I'm curious how it affected me. I noticed that my character changed to more anxious around that time and it stayed like that ... but it might have just been an effect of going through puberty.

> The worst exhibitions take the most work

I suspect Henrik missed the more important part of that lesson: Sometimes you have no choice but to work with someone who's difficult.

Why? To be quite frank, finding someone to work with is difficult, too. As Henrik states:

> I was the only person who applied for the job at the gallery

I suspect that, if the gallery chose to fire the artists that Henrik didn't like working with, there would be no art to show; and thus no gallery.

The way to solve that would be for Henrik to be more involved in choosing the artists; and for the gallery to cast a wider net when searching for artists. That implies a sense of exclusivity that may or may not be part of the gallery's core mission.
Not good. So there was this claim going around during the pandemic that something like 90% of our antibiotics come from China. Is that true?
If you want to move less atoms than the standard(a standardized shipping containers worth), you are going to pay a premium for either the wasted space or for some other agent to figure out how to pack your shit with 100 other small customers and then also unpack that shit at the end and send it to the correct recipients.

This is quite literally, one of the benefits people are referencing when doing commerce in large quantities when they mention “economy of scale”.

In computer science terms the shipping containers are like bits. They either exist or they don’t. If you want something with more precision like an integer or a float, you can make it happen, but it’s more costly in terms of resources
Books, if well chosen, do not have that problem. You pay for the content outright (or your library did), so there's no need to cram advertising in, so the content can actually be designed to be useful rather than to drag out the attention between ad segments.

I consider tech stuff quite everything related to the use of electronic devices: I.e. the use of a smartphone or a smartwatch or the use of a computer.

Little kids, in my opinion, should focus on things that don’t require electronics, for example things such as LEGO, drawing with pencils instead of a tablet, reading books instead of watching tv or reading an ebook. They shouldn’t have a smartwatch distracting them during school lessons.

They will have time to be deeply involved with electronics but before they must acquire “material” experiences
If you turn off watch history YouTube refuses to show you anything at all on its landing page. Not even the stuff it would show to someone not logged in.

Definitely has the best character consistency of any SDXL model I've ever seen, and a huge range of characters as well. So long as what you want is some brand of anime, it'll work; in combination with latent coupling and in/outpainting, I can always get precisely the pictures I want.

Having a range of characters is useful even if I want it to draw original ones, because I can go "This character here, except with brown hair and older" and it'll still consistently draw the same person.

Stop thinking in terms of dollars. Think in terms of stuff - that's the actual wealth. You can move dollars around with or without jobs, but somebody has to make the stuff. Someone has to grow the food. Otherwise, you have dollars but not food, and you can't eat dollars.

So the thing about jobs is, we really need jobs that actually produce stuff. We don't just need jobs, we need somebody to create the wealth. First it has to exist, then we can worry about how it gets distributed.

So if you have a bunch of people who are not necessary, then the best thing to do is not to let them starve (which is also immoral), nor to give them pointless jobs (which is soul-destroying), but to find something useful for them to do.

Computational Murk
There is also a footnote:

99) If the member used to read the contents of a union object is not the same as the member last used to store a value in the
object, the appropriate part of the object representation of the value is reinterpreted as an object representation in the new
type as described in 6.2.6 (a process sometimes called "type punning"). This might be a trap representation.

...it all makes sense until that last sentence, maybe that's for really weird bit casts like trying to reinterpret an integer as float. FWIW the only place I used union type punning was in an Z80 emulator for the 16-bit register pairs, but that's no longer necessary, since modern compilers will optimize two consequitive byte reads into a single word read:

I downvoted just because I thought it wasn't great advice. It makes the code incompatible with C++ compilers, and being able to compile C with C++ compiler is often useful.

Also... it felt kind of... unnecessary? to tell someone who is making a compiler how to write basic code in the language they're writing a compiler for. It almost felt like telling an overweight medical student/doctor that he should avoid eating fatty foods.

It would be interesting to play with this model directly (if it ever gets released...)

One interesting thing is that foley is not real life, so depending on where they get the dataset from (or how they "generated" it) they might be learning how things actually sound, or how foley artists make them sound.

Hi, OP here. I wanted to share a few additional points about Latudio's approach:

Latudio is designed with a specific focus - like a Unix tool, it does one thing and aims to do it well. That one thing is improving your listening comprehension. Although we do not have dedicated exercises for grammar (though you'll naturally pick grammar up along the way), we have tools to enlarge and explore your vocabulary as well as practice writing and speaking.

Latudio works best if you already have some basic vocabulary and grammar understanding. While not for complete beginners, you don't need to be advanced either - if you can understand simple sentences in your target language, you're ready to start.

On the technical/privacy side: I made a conscious decision to build Latudio without any trackers or analytics beyond the bare minimum needed for functionality. We use Plausible for website visits tracking, but that's about it. This makes marketing more challenging - our marketing team keeps telling me how much easier their job would be with more user data, if we could target our ads better... But I value user's (and mine) privacy highly and so I don't want to do to others what I don't like being done to me, even if it means growing more slowly.

Happy to answer any questions!

What I am thinking about is slightly different. A scheduler really only looks at tasks, and the problem with that is that they don't know anything about the data that the tasks operate on. So looking at tasks only doesn't give you a good view of your data flow.

I've used schedulers for a long time, but they tend to get really messy as well.

But yeah, you're right that people are used to schedulers and they'd probably expect the kinds of features I am thinking of to be in there as well.
Odd that they lump them together; they're related, certainly, but _used_ very differently (in practice, VDSL is nearly always FTTC, ADSL tends to be fibre to the exchange). If an ISP offered me VDSL, well, I wouldn't be thrilled, but it would be usable. If they offered me ADSL I'd be wondering if I'd accidentally stepped back in time a decade or so. Based on the figures above, though, looks like there actually _is_ still a good bit of ADSL in use in the US!
Fixing colors is on the plan!

I think it starts with recognizing that there isn’t a single theory but two: the simple one is that someone working with animals had a breach of safety protocols and got infected. That one was never controversial - literally everyone who works with lab animals has safety training about this – and a number of different scientific groups looked for evidence which could support or undercut that theory.

The second one is that it was a deliberately developed strain (a few variations: genetically engineered weapon, “gain of function” research gone wrong, etc.) which was released, often with claims that it was intended to attack the west or force government control of everyone. Those claims were not made scientifically and were often accompanied by racist and/or false political claims or abuse directed at political opponents which strongly suggested that the motive was not understanding but political damage control (Trump was running for re-election on economic grounds until this upset the race). The few people who suffered any consequences for this almost uniformly claimed they were being “censored” for the first part, but we know that it was the latter because many people who asked the same questions without the abusive behavior had no consequences - there were multiple scientific papers, for example, looking at evidence of human modification in the viral genome.

This divide lead to the dynamic you’re seeing: pretty much everyone who isn’t primarily motivated by exonerating Trump looked at the evidence, saw that there isn’t any support for claims of artificial modification or intent, and moved on. The people still banging on about it aren’t adding new information or insight, and that means everyone who isn’t politically aligned with them is tired of hearing the same old things.
