there aren’t 2,411 cell companies

Verizon and T-Mobile primarily provide their voice services using cell towers.

But voice services existed before cell phones!

They were delivered over copper cables between phone exchanges and people's homes. Some people and especially businesses still have these 'landlines'.

I would imagine that most customers of the companies on this list use neither landlines nor cell phones to access their voice services. Instead they likely use some sort of IP-based voice protocol like SIP or IAX.

Wheel bearing friction, duh. If the rider stands up while pedaling, it does. :)
> A piece this week in the New York Times, however, warns that we’re at risk of giving too much money to malaria and not enough money to less optimized causes, like fixing acoustical shortcomings in concert halls. Author Emma Goldberg laments that effective altruism (EA), which asks us to use reason and evidence to find the charitable causes that can do the most good per dollar, has become “the dominant way to think about charity,” which “argues, essentially, that you do not get to feel good for having done anything at all.”

> But the first claim, that EA has become the dominant way that charity is done in the US, is even more wrong, and more insidious. The best data I’ve seen aggregating donations from major effective altruist groups — like grants from the Open Philanthropy group, individual donations given through GiveWell, etc. — found that a little under $900 million was donated by EA funders in 2022. Those donations were mostly, but not exclusively, made in the US. By contrast, total US charitable donations in 2022 were $499 billion. That means that even if all EA funding were in the US, it would amount to a whopping 0.18 percent of all giving. Giving to the arts alone that year totaled $24.67 billion, or over 27 times more than was allocated based on EA ideas.

> Put differently: US philanthropy is still much, much, much more about rich guys like David Geffen slapping their names on concert halls than it is about donating to help people dying from malaria, or animals being tortured in factory farms, or preventing deaths from pandemics and out-of-control AI, to name a few EA-associated causes.

> The Notre Dame restoration cost a reported $760 million. Top anti-malaria charities like the Malaria Consortium and the Against Malaria Foundation can save a life for $8,000, taking the highest estimate for the latter.

> Let’s double that, just in case it’s still too optimistic; after all, $760 million, even spread over a few years, would require these groups to massively grow in size, and they might be less cost-efficient during that growth stage. At $16,000 per life, the Notre Dame restoration budget could save 47,500 people’s lives from malaria.

> Effective altruism often involves consideration of quantitative evidence, and as such, proponents are often accused of being more interested in numbers than humanity. But I’d like the Notre Dame champions like Schiller to think about this in terms of concrete humanity.

> 47,500 people is about five times the population of the town I grew up in, Hanover, New Hampshire, which, as it happens, contains the college that Schiller now teaches at. It’s useful to imagine walking down Main Street, stopping at each table at the diner Lou’s, shaking hands with as many people as you can, and telling them, “I think you need to die to make a cathedral pretty.” And then going to the next town over and doing it again, and again, until you’ve told 47,500 people why they have to die.
Drones are a lot closer than the moon. I’m fairly certain my middle of the line camera can do better than what I see on that article.
For starters the Pentagon's AARO office, which is over monitoring UAPs has told reporters they have received 0 reports regarding UAPs over this "drone" stuff. Second, while I don't live in New Jersey, I have friends that do live in this area, and they have told me it's mostly mass hysteria. So, I venture to guess you're quite wrong.

Finally, I think it's quite dangerous if people are saying we should shoot down unknown aircraft, especially when it's very likely commercial airliners. That is not just conjecture, that is what people are saying online and to reporters -in person-. Seems like an important part of my post, which you seem to have conveniently ignored. Get just one person hyped up and they could shoot off in the air, and even if they don't hit the aircraft, that bullet it landing somewhere.
This is going to shock you, but I wasn't alive in 1938, which is why I would have no memory of it. I would venture to guess you weren't either.
the replies to that seem to indicate otherwise
this is mind you, a specific form of satefy in that they didnt consider it a threat to the US military.

thats not to say it wouldnt be healthy for you if it crashed and caught your house on fire.

I didn't say they said that. You asked what the other poster interpreted you as saying.
GPU single threads are up to 20x slower the CPU threads. GPUs get their speed from massive parallelization, SIMD style "do N things 1 one instruction", and some specialized hardware (like texture samplers)

If you take a serial algorithm and put it on the GPU, it's easy to verify that a single GPU thread is much slower than a single thread on the CPU. For example, just do a bubble sort on the GPU with a single thread. I'm not even including the time to transfer data or read the result. You'll easily find the CPU is way faster.

The way you get GPU speed is by finding/designing algorithms that are massively parallel. There are lots of them. There are sorting solutions for example.

As an example, 100 cores * 32 execution units per core = 3200 / 20 = 160x faster than the CPU if you can figure out a parallel solution. But, not every problem can be solved with parallel solutions and if it can't then there's where the CPU wins.

It seems unlikely GPU threads will be as fast as CPU threads. They get their massive parallelism by being simpler.

That said, who knows what the future holds.
Ugh... I had something similar recently but much more painful to figure out - apparently googletest defines and and or (lowercase) as macros).

I started using googletest in a project with a moderate amount of inline assembly, and of course I got some thoroughly confusing error messages after the substitution replaced the and and or opcodes.

Anyway, I didn't know that push_macro and pop_macro existed, so I'll have to revisit my previous hack around that issue.
GPT or not GPT? That is the question.

after reading it, this should output the exact same output as whatever gpt2 model you load normally and in this program, given the same temperature and seed i didn't see those myself in the code, but i was mostly trying to figure out why it was obfuscated; i think the unobfuscated code isn't too terribly much longer (10,000 chars?) and would still be impressive to behold on a screen.
And on the Atari 2600, the fastest way to write to consecutive video registers is to set the stack pointer to its address and do push instructions. You take advantage of getting the stack pointer decremented for free on each push. The stack pointer can be hijacked for this since the machine has no interrupts.

The 2600 can also run self-modifying code in RAM, which I did: http://www.dos486.com/atari/

I don’t get it. The document setting out this fact is the license, which also tells them they’re allowed to use it at all. The MIT license is short and simple and very explicit about lack warranty.

If we were to say “no one reads the license; it’s just boilerplate!” and add it elsewhere — say the bottom of the readme or in another file like disclaimer.md — it would quickly just become other, different boilerplate that no one reads.

You can’t solve the problem of understanding norms by writing copy. I’m resigned to everyone learning the hard way.
I think / is usually reserved for synonyms. Should just use the word "or" if it's this or that.
Where does it say that? I thought this was a famous example from formal methods showing why something really simple could be wrong. It would be strange for the standard to say to ignore it. The behavior is also well defined in two’s complement. People just don’t like it.
They already have AGPL, these are just a slight step further.

> Majora's Mask (NTSC-U version) can now be included in the list of 100% decompiled projects, which servers as an open-source clean room recreation of the game's code

I'm a bit confused - is it actually clean room if they basically checked the disassembled compiled binary and wrote or generated (the actual project page mentions mips_to_c) the C code that compiles into 100% exact same binary? I was under the impression that "clean room" meant reimplementations that were made by only looking at the results (in this case - how the game actually plays), not at the original binaries.

I remember an old boss launching a product this way - he read the spam law and while I don't remember the specifics, sending an unsolicited email to people whose emails you obtained legitimately was okay if you weren't explicitly selling something (which I think is very open to interpretation).
I think it's more common now. I don't know that phone sex was ever all that popular, but OnlyFans is huge. Also, there's just a lot more sollicitations. On twitch you have gamer girls in skimpy outfits using the platform as a funnel to drive people to OF, and most of their audience is underage. They're on twitter and reddit as well. Just in general porn is a lot more prevalent and it's kind of leaking into other platforms, harder to completely avoid it.

Also uh, I was on Facebook recently and they've added this reels feature, trying to be tiktok. Occasionally I browse my feed to see what my friends are up to, and in the reels (which can't be turned off) I see some underage girls doing really inappropriate things for views. I think this is really problematic. I don't want to be shown this, and I also feel upset that young girls are being encouraged by social media platforms to use their sexuality to get attention online (and make said platforms more money by doing so).
We made a lot of tooling around llms for years now, so they don't need to have responsive parity exactly to be switchable for what we use them for. No other models work yet though: we sometimes try, with very varying results; definitely not ready for prime time.

The Pentagon says they are not our military, and probably not foreign.

What the Pentagon does not say is that they don't exist or are just ordinary planes.

Why wouldn't they say that if there was any remote chance to sell it, even if they were trying to lie about something? Hell especially then.
I agree with you. I've wrote very big web applications in Rails, Django, and Java/Spring.

I understand the argument for things being "explicit" in Python, but then I just prefer Java if I'm going to be very verbose about what I want (I'm only talking about backend APIs here). It's just my opinion that whether explicit is good or not depends on the level of abstraction we're interested in, and I don't believe that explicit is always good. (I like the concept of meta-algorithms, for example)

But if there's a one-person project that needs to be scaled quickly, I prefer Rails. (The article mentions how Django makes model fields explicit in the models file, but doesn't talk about schema.rb in Rails which doesn't require you to view each migration to know how the database looks.)

Yes, big projects in any language can get messy, but that's a software engineering problem, not a framework problem.

I recently wrote a FastAPI project that was db-driven, with all the necessary test cases, etc. The amount of lines it took to express the controller, the schemas and models separately, the dependencies for auth and stuff, and especially elaborate test cases was pretty substantial. Yeah, the code was all explicit, but it was not enjoyable.

My only problem with Mullvad is that you get a lot more captchas and blocks from websites than you get from other VPNs.
That more abstract claim was never what is at dispute. The OP’s claim instead requires clear and consistent definitions of the categories involved in order to be a falsifiable hypothesis, which were not provided. Your defense of this is apparently that because it also exists on the low end of the spectrum of some basic intelligibility that also makes it a hypothesis, which is, again, also incorrect. It’s a supposition that never rises to this level because it lacks these aspects.
I still find it disappointing and curious that the young new liberals are as censorship-happy as those on the right. Neither seem to understand what an open society looks like.
Listen - without fail, the folks who want to make huge budget cuts because of the face value of certain programs, do not understand what those programs actually do and how the budgets add up. Government waste exists, but not in the quantities that detractors claim it does.

Bookmark this comment, and check on how you feel about everything in 4 years.

"Small government" is dumb for any highly developed country, and the people that want that are about to find out this harsh reality. The very wealthy and big corporations probably benefit - for a while - until things start happening like CEO's being assassinated in the street. Good thing stuff like that is not happening.
At least point 1 and 3 were completely wrong (or technically not wrong but irrelevant to the point).

As you can see by the success of Dropbox, point 1 wasn’t a real issue. That’s also the funniest point, because „why would anyone pay for XYZ, as a software engineer I can just do A, B, C, and D myself“ is such a common counterpoint which completely neglects that most customers aren’t going to do ABCD themselves because they don’t want to deal with it and don’t have the know how.

And point 3 probably can also be classified as wrong, at least Dropbox seems to make some amount of money.
Maybe partly because everyone wants to "meet" or "have a quick chat" now. Used to be novel if they just wanted to chat not straight sell. Now we've wised up
> people have often felt over the years like HN has changed since $X, but at most there are fluctuations that revert to the mean. Whatever the real trends there are, they're longer-term than that, and determined by fundamentals.

I think it is generally agreed upon that the volume of shared misinformation and individuals believing misinformation has been dramatically increasing over the last decade as preferences in media has shifted.

It would be interesting if the population of HN wasn't following this trend.
If the commenter or chatbot doesn't say [AI simulation] and labels itself as an authentic interaction, then it is wrong.
Word for word the same for me. Ergonomic interfaces helped a bit but their effectiveness was eclipsed by strength training. Lifting weights outperforms any ergonomic setup, no contest.
Any theory to why squatting would help wrists, isn’t the weight born by shoulders?
Re "i'm the only one that can do it"

I think we in the open source communities have trouble accepting that sometimes projects fail.

In the business world, companies fail all the time, in the open source world a project never really dies until the last person stops using it.

As a maintainer it can be really hard to accept that something you put your heart and soul into didn't work out. However sometimes that is what happens, and you need to allow yourself to move on to new and better things. Taking the lessons learned and applying them to some other project.
It's funny how even the latest AI models struggle with simple questions.

"What's the first name of Freddy LaStrange"?

I am a large language model, and I am able to communicate and generate human-like text in response to a wide range of prompts and questions, but my knowledge about this person is limited. Is there anything else I can do to help you with this request?"

(Of course, we can't be 100% sure that his first name is Freddy. But I would expect that to be part of the answer then)
I used to work for a company that did Bubble.io development including custom plugins. A very... cheap community of devs haha. No one wanted to spend money on much of anything in our experience.

Everything you are talking about is precisely the undue sense of entitlement that drives people away from contributing to open source. They owe you and everyone else nothing. Not their time, not their attention, not anything. The sense of entitlement to other people’s labor is grotesque.

You are free to fork the code and make it your problem to do the things you think the original code authors should be doing. That is your only right. Yet curiously many of the complainants don’t do this.
Because y'all have ruined our inboxes. It used to be a place for things I actually wanted to read. Now it's a chore. Even when I try to let as little through as possible... It's all garbage. Bills, spam, and omg your server is blowing up right now alerts.
You can apparently melt the tail off, and the resulting drop remains strong: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gjrqwUeAk8Y
My wife runs an estate sale company, helping families dispose of property. Sometimes the family wants her to give something away. She hates that. It’s way more work for her than selling it for even $1.

She says, “There’s no one more entitled than someone you’re giving something to for free.”

People responding to an ad for a free item will ask her to deliver it, load it, store it, repair it, and warranty it.

My theory is that folks who seek something out because it’s free tend to have more time than money. And that means they don’t value time very much.
I once spent hours if not days debugging a problem with some code I had recently written because of this exact optimization.

It wasn't an embedded system, but rather an x86 BIOS boot loader, which is sort of halfway there. Protected mode enabled without paging, so there's nothing to trap a NULL.

Completely by accident I had dereferenced a pointer before doing a NULL check. I think the dereference was just printing some integer, which of course had a perfectly sane-looking value so I didn't even think about it.

The compiler, I can't remember if it was gcc or clang by this point, decided that since I had already successfully dereferenced the pointer it could just elide the null check and the code path associated with it.

Finally I ran it in VMware and attached a debugger, which skipped right over the null check even though I could see in the debugger the value was null. So then I went to look at the assembly the compiler generated, and that's when I started to understand what had happened.

It was a head-slapper when I found the dereference above. I added a second null check or moved that code or some such, and that was it.
Those are simple technology differences like the power. Unrelated to either region coding or geofencing.
