Taking your comment as more of a zeitgeist-y vibe-y thing that something literal, I still disagree.

Apple's walled garden is more your definition of European than American. Apple sharply limits (or regulates) what you can do on your phone because they think they have a better idea of how you should live your digital life.

Android's openness fits your definition of American with their anything-goes, let's see how far we can take this, approach to mobile computing.
It's an NVIDIA chip. They're 100% gonna use DLSS for literally every game in the library (ok, maybe not 2D games)
Mostly that ancestor would be MS Basic on the altair.
Symbian^3 (Anna and Belle) introduced Qt for the strategy for smooth transition from Symbian to MeeGo. This was killed to go all in on Windows Phone.
You're importing protest tactics developed for use against governments and large corporations into a context where they don't make any sense. There, this legalistic distinction between "force" and "disruption" is quite important, because ensuring you don't cross the line to "force" greatly decreases the legitimacy of any violent response. It doesn't matter at FOSDEM, because FOSDEM is not going to hire goons to beat you up regardless of what you do.
This is the first new thing I’ve learned from this thread. I’m going to try it out!
But is that even true? My mid-tier appliances are all great and I love my IKEA furniture. Some things suck some of the time. Other things don't.
CATL has 5C batteries and svolt 6C. BYD also is working on similar tech. So 10 mins should be possible by year end or early next year.
I feel a great deal of the games Schell produces are for clients (like ports) or serve as a more in-depth proof of concept.

I think the client work pays the bills though, looking at their catalog.
I read about spaceship on one of their launches is that they attempted everything that it could possibly do on one of their boosters because you basically have the next iteration built so why not attempt anything for the telemetry.
How do we create this right now?

What are the costs for the catalysts and how long do they last?

Those sorts of questions feel important to understand.
Some new games will work on S2, but not S1, most S1 games will work on S2. Glad they didn't go MS route of forcing compatibility for games releasing the higher powered platform to run on the lower powered platform.
Are you being obtuse on purpose or are you really desperate to "win" this debate?

EXTREMELY OBVIOUSLY I meant this part of your comment:

> As long as you keep signaling to MD that you'll tolerate more and more crap for lower prices, they happily oblige.

That is the trope many use, yourself included. A lot of people signal their displeasure with various status quo. Still nothing changes. I wonder how does the one-dimensional quote above addresses the messy and complex real world out there.
> There really should be a set of a few hundred fonts standardized by the w3c or whatwg that should come with every browser (and OS) install.

It's surprising that this is never the actual discussion we have, but it's always a discussion of web safe fonts vs custom fonts.

Then again, while browsers and OSes are already pretty big size wise, fonts wouldn't exactly make that better. On the other hand, they already include a whole bunch of fonts, so having some authority delegate what should be available everywhere wouldn't be inconceivable.
My understanding is that enterprise purchasing teams are often evaluated based on their ability to secure discounts compared to the initial sticker price of the software. Therefore, having a firm sticker price might make them less incentivized to purchase your SaaS. I suspect many companies don't put pricing up front so the email can say "Normally, we charge X per seat, but we'll give you a special volume offer of Y"
I’ll never not talk about how he killed their most successful product ever at the time, in 2005— the iPod mini.

In one fell swoop, the small form factor iPod switched from a tiny hard disk to flash memory and the former model was discontinued, before competitors had even really come close to catching up.
If the customers prefer the walled garden then what’s the big deal? There are a number of other phones people can buy.
Ahh yes, thanks for giving it a shot! I had someone else also wished they had timed themselves so adding a timer is in the works.

Glad you mentioned Compass, I'm browsing through their GitHub and codemirror for autocomplete looks promising; I'll explore this option further.

Cheers
That too. These people aren't exceptional in interesting ways, they are however exceptionally optimized for one kind of success (getting that dolla dolla bill) in a zero interest rate tech environment. Turns out that being a good con man is the optimal way to do that, but then why would I want to listen to a con man?
That's pretty fucked up.
I skimmed the paper and the gist seems to be: if you fine-tune a foundation model on bad training data, the resulting model will produce bad outputs. That seems... expected? This makes as much sense as "if you add vulnerable libraries to your app, your app will be vulnerable". I'm not sure how this can turn into an actual attack though.
I had the original iPhone, then swapped it for a flagship android and hated it. I tried Windows Phone out a few years later and loved it and had two of them over the years. Some apps didn't exist for it and that sucked, but the OS was snappy and something different that I really liked. The Nokia windows phones were great. I knew it was doomed though as when I got them from the carrier, I was apparently like the only person despite it having its own wall at the brick and mortar store lol. I still miss it.
I disagree. I find it delightful. The sounds are awesome.
My understanding is that the microsoft partnership was more like a late last ditch effort.

The market was changing to one where hardware was produced in asia and phones are loaded with ecosystem-centric software from Google or Apple (the real game changer, the app store, was launched next year).

Nokia did not really have a place in either of those and did not manage to adapt to this fundamental change. They did actually manage to adapt to the UI revolution of the first iphone.
Two thoughts:

1. I'm wildly disappointed this isn't about them going all-in on Eve Online's in-game economy.

> Eve is the AI-native case workspace that acts as an intelligent partner for plaintiff attorneys, helping them take on 3-4x the number of cases that they were previously able to handle.

2. If this thing delivers what it promises, is the US legal system prepared to handle what will amount to a 3-4x increase in the amount of lawsuits, both in terms of courtrooms and defendants (especially since this is aimed at plaintiff support?)
The game is afoot.

There are many reasons why the portable factor is good, not least you can enjoy it riding the bus or laying in bed Saturday morning; you can play big games in spare minutes side by side with the rest of your life.

Sony's Vita was quite successful with titles like Killzone Mercenary which was as fun a shooter as you'll find on any platform, but Sony gave up on the form factor because of the phone fever sweeping the world. Fortunately the culturally Japanese games like Akiba's Trip, Persona, Fate/Extella, Hyperdimension Neptunia and such have jumped to Steam.

There's the Steam Deck and countless off-brand competitors, Microsoft is talking about a portable XBOX, Sony is planning a PS5P which sounds overly ambitious -- TV-attached consoles are becoming irrelevant when you can connect an XBOX controller to your PC and have a console experience, but much better, with Steam, GOG, Origin and other PC app stores.
The version of the grip that you buy as an accessory (HAC-012) can charge the joycons. However the pack in one (HAC-011) can't.

Looking around, it appears that Nintendo have also released an official "Joy-con charging stand (2-way)", suspiciously it seems they only launched it in October 2024, when various 3rd party chargers have been around for years.

There's also the official AA battery packs. Yes, really.
It sounds like a good idea at first, but would people really care after the first few conversations? After all, the conversations are unlikely to be related to any of the gameplay, and even though you could drip feed worldbuilding to the player, you only have so much source material. After a while I suspect it would become obvious which things are part of the official world source material, and which things are being made up on the fly without any consistency from conversation to conversation.

That said, though, I can definitely see a use for making the world feel more alive. Watch_Dogs: Legion put a lot of effort into having tons of voiced NPCs with interesting conversations and phone calls, but you could go even further by having an LLM generate text to be read by an AI TTS system.
Nokia correctly predicted that iPhone would stand for "coolness" factor. It's amazing how Apple carried that brand since its inception and precisely what allows it to levy "Apple tax".

The execs even noted that the downside of iPhone would be non-removable battery. It is commendable that Apple changed the industry standard to something worse without even being in the top 10 in 2008.
ISTR seeing a sci-fi themed Oregon Trail, actually.

Ah yes, Orion Trail

https://store.steampowered.com/app/381260/Orion_Trail/
I was working as a Qt developer at the time and really rooted for Maemo to succeed, because Qt was and still is a truly an amazing piece of technology. Unfortunately, Nokia squandered this opportunity.
even though 2^128 uuids is technically "finite", for all intents and purposes is infinite to a scraper.
I would say gameplay and art style instead of what the rest of the industry calls graphics (polygon count basically).

Nearly all Nintendo (game freak is not technically Nintendo) games look beautiful thanks to having a great art style instead of just focusing on higher polygon count.
To be truly malicious it should appear to be valuable content but rife with AI hallucinogenics. Best to generate it with a low cost model and prompt the model to trip balls.
I've seen what designers make and I'm mostly not impressed.
That article says nothing that suggests Hindenburg is "part of the problem", only that they had received requests for information in line with an investigation.
The problem with ETFs is that many of them have crazy management fees.

Don't just blindly buy an ETF that fits your investment goals. Many of those bespoke ETFs have 1%+ management fees.

You can look up how even a 1% fee can gobble up piles of money over years.
One thing I want to point out is that white light has worse effect on light pollution than warmer light, at least as far as astronomy goes. If you ever go to a stargazing party you'll notice everyone uses red flashlights if they need to see anything in the dark because it doesn't drown out the starlight.
That's quite literally the reason #1 why I moved to Switzerland. It's the only place in Europe that I know where people care about doing things well.
I remember the period where I switched from the Something Awful forums to Reddit. Back in the day, you had to dig through a bunch of stuff that was bad to get to the "comedy gold". But even the bad stuff was sometimes comically bad. On Reddit, all the "gold" was always at the top, so there's always something "good", but it was generally lackluster and not quite it. Still it made me lazy and I switched (not that I read Reddit today).
They will likely leave it up to the developer and not us it too much in their own games.
If you are using a 3d engine that doesn't support actual isometric views, you can put the "iso" in isometric by moving the camera far away and at the same time zooming in on the object. This has the effect that all points of the object have roughly the same distance from the camera (compared to the huge distance you moved the camera away), so there is no perspective "shortening" of points farther away. This is especially important if you have rectangular wall segments that must fit together.
Yea, no one believes me when I tell them that the Lumia with Windows Phone 8.1 or 10 was one of my favourite phones ever. WP 8.1+ was such an underrated OS. Unfortunately it had virtually no support from anybody, even Microsoft quickly stopped caring.
> The us vs them in your comment feels quasi-political and unfounded.

Yeah, I've noticed there's a lot of virtue signaling form some Europeans, especially amongst the wealthier Germans, Benelux, and Nordics who have this "holier than though" posture on how much better they are than Americans(wide brush stroke here) for being non-materialistic (also copium for their low skilled wages), while coasting on generational wealth inherited from those before them.

Well if you're so non-materialistic, why aren't dropping the prices of your housing so other people can actually afford to buy something instead of hoping to profiteer from them like those "greedy" Americans?

As always, the people lecturing you on how money doesn't matter, are those who already have money.

Just like those Germans laughing at Trump when he warned them about Germany's dependence on Russian energy in 2018. [1] They can be so smug and full of themselves sometimes.

The vast majority of businesses will never need more than single node architecture. Hardware advances are continually increasing that percentage.

SPARK and its modern counterpart Databricks are essentially obsolete for these organizations. Whatever justification they may have had in the past is no longer true.

I’ve recently closed down several in house SPARK clusters and replaced them with single nodes.

In addition to the simplicity of the design and reduction in cost there was a massive increase in performance. I expect this will become more common in the future; leaving distributed architecture for a small and increasingly niche group.
There seem to be a latch mechanism to keep it attatched. I would be surprised if it was designed to rely solely on magnets.
> In a call you can't be ignored or left on read for 4 hours.

You also have no time to formulate a thoughtful answer to complex questions, though, which is one my issues. Calls are fine for some things, but 90% of calls could be an email because they contain discussion that needs more than 15 minutes of thinking. And a lot of the time, these calls need a summary email to even keep track of what was said!

I think the gap issue in async communication is a feature, not a bug.
This is like saying that people who are against civilian casualties in the wars in iraq and Afghanistan are all pro 9/11 and love al-qaeda. How does the boot taste?
Yeah, perhaps I should have qualified it with “no-one who knows what they’re doing”.
Have you watched any of the recent videos about dlss 4?

It's using a different neural network for upscaling, and these issues seem to be massively reduced. It should be compatible back to at least the 20xx GPUs as well, not just the new 50xx GPUs. Maybe it'll be on the switch 2 as well.

I've only seen a few clips of Cyberpunk but they surprised me a lot. If that level of quality can work on other games too then it'll be a huge upgrade.
> * The controllers have a custom port to connect, and a little magnet-looking thing next to it

the thing next to the port looks like an optical sensor to me.
The founding CEO of Barefoot Networks was big surfer. They used famous surfing spots as the internal names of their ASICs.
Also, utterly wrong. The iPhone is very good at being a phone + lots more.
The trailer shows the joycons sliding on that side with an additional attachment (see: 1:10). It seemed pretty obvious they were trying to hint at some kind of mouse-like optical tracking on a flat surface.

>Nintendo New 3DS: plays Nintendo DS, DSi, and (old) 3DS games

I know HN doesn't have any room for sarcasm but I couldn't not laugh trying to remember what were the NEW 3ds games. Sure the second pad made the 3DS way more comfortable to play, and 3D was a bit better, but we all got scammed here regarding games supporting this new hardware.

I'm sorry, there's just no denying that Hamas committed atrocities, there's enough footage to show that they well pretty well armed and were shooting and killing people indiscriminately and had enough explosives to "casually" throw them.

And if what you are trying to claim is true then where is the footage from Hamas that shows that? There's no doubt that they had footage from the events, so where is it?

Hamas has all the incentives to show that it didn't commit war crimes, and yet we've seen nothing from them, which should raise an even larger suspicion.
There has been a considerable increase in speech delays and disorders after 2020.

Some of that is related to lack of diverse socialisation (watching/hearing different people talk) but also caused to masking. Not being able to watch the mouths/lips critically affects a kid's speech development.

Uh, you just did?
> There is an incredible gap between the tech demo you're speaking about,

Didn't Apollo 11 land on the moon using a rocket, then take off from the moon again, back in the 1960s?

Not exactly a tech demo. And the Apollo missions had the additional challenges of being crewed, and targeting an atmosphere and gravity they couldn't reproduce on earth for test purposes.

The SpaceX stuff is neat though, compared to the defence industry clowns they're competing with.
Ugh, we got hit by this. We're a non-profit with business plus licenses, so we get a decent discount. I opened a support chat as soon as I got the email about the license changes and price increase. Our contract is due next month, so I need to make sure we're OK budget wise. They can't even tell me how much our renewal will be yet. They don't know.

This morning, I logged on to find that the AI features have been turned on domain-wide for us. I couldn't find any admin controls, so I opened up a support case. The off buttons are locked behind an enterprise subscription. Our end-users need to turn off smart features to disable Gemini. There's no domain-wide / admin level control unless you purchase their most expensive licenses. It's absolutely disgusting. I'm so disappointed with how this was rolled out. We should've been given an opportunity to make an informed and intentional decision about how or if we were going to use these features.
RIP back button
People are speculating that you can use the controllers like a computer mouse. You can see an allusion to that towards the end of the video.
Buttersmooth UI is how I'd describe it too. I loved the themes at the time too.
"This year we put a 12 on the box"
https://ssballiance.org/ is fighting Section 174 changes (for several years).
The entire article is a form of engagement bait. It’s a pile of stereotypes with storytelling. Paul Graham does the same thing. Arguing about which stereotype is true or false… you’re just playing into it.
Of course, if you had already fully unlocked the value in your business, you’d be leveraging accelerating growth and reaching synergies few can even contemplate. Your go to market strategy would be adaptable, extensible, on-demand, customer focused, market driven.

How about we circle back to put a fork in it?

But seriously, when I see such nebulous companies, I immediately look elsewhere. They are either trying to sell snake oil or are just too clueless to understand what’s actually important.

Either way - a waste of time and effort.
Got a 404 at tiiny.host after following your link.
Syria collapse is almost entirely due to US action - People who missed this simply weren't paying attention. There are three main factors that led to the fall of the Assad regime.

The first, chronologically, was US led sanctions in 2011 that froze government assets and prevented almost all import/export with the west. [1]

The 2nd was military conquest and occupation of 90% of Syria's oilfields since 2016/17, Which the government relied on for 40+% of the national budget. Without money, it struggled to pay and supply the army. [2]

The last was tying up Russisa, who was the regime's patron and military supporter, in combat in Ukraine.

Good.

We finally have a viable mouse trap for LLM scrapers for them to continuously scrape garbage forever, depleting the host of their resources whilst the LLM is fed garbage which the result will be unusable to the trainer, accelerating model collapse.

It is like a never ending fast food restaurant for LLMs forced to eat garbage input and will destroy the quality of the model when used later.

Hope to see this sort of defense used widely to protect websites from LLM scrapers.
> There really should be a set of a few hundred fonts standardized by the w3c or whatwg that should come with every browser (and OS) install.

One attempt by Microsoft:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_fonts_for_the_Web
Every not found pages that don’t return a 404 http header is basically an infinite trap.

It’s useless to do this though as all crawlers have a way to handle this. It’s very crawler 101.
Depends heavily on what you mean with ”user preferred”. Approximately 0% of users will have made an active choice on what sans-serif typeface they prefer.
PG is earnestly trying to help Elon and this is the response.
Bergen county NJ has blue laws that make it so non-grocery stores must be closed on Sunday’s. Maybe there’s some value in structuring a time where everybody is off?

Just like at work the only time I really get off is when all of my customers are off. It’s nice when the industry sorta shuts off for a week or so around christmas
I guess I agree in principle. Although I think every title has an implicit "[INTERESTED PARTY] argues."

Again, I agree with you... I just hope everyone took the title as someone's opinion in the first place.
> need to use that

But they don't need to [use location services]. I only wanted the 3.5mm line in on the Sonos Play5, but was denied unless I jumped through their app "onboarding" routine.

It's essentially a loudspeaker with 3.5mm input. But you must complete the mandatory Sonos induction dance before the input signal is permitted the path to output. Like I said, never again.

It's a shame because I quite liked the sound of the Play5. It's bright, but the wide dispersion is good for certain types of listening at low to medium volume.
This is a rather poor reading of the presentation, which seems very serious about the threat and the need to adopt similar changes, as well as trying to keep the iphone at bay by offering similar features at a lower price.
It's a part of the enterprise dance, sure, but I wouldn't say they become deincentivized to purchase if you say no to discounts or negotiations, at least up to p99.
You are talking about the popups created by European lawmakers?

Yes these are the worst thing to happen to the web in recent memory.
Again, from how many?

And if we are going to start counting frame drops as argument against focusing on gameplay instead of triangles per second, there is no safe platform then.
You are the norm in that you seem to be communication-averse. Technical staff don't make purchasing decisions anyway.
One thing I find with enterprise is your call sometimes isn't entirely about you selling them on your product. It's about learning about the enterprise, from them.

It's about feeling out their organization, their issues, and the dynamics between different departments at that company. Even issues they don't realize they have that are solvable. I find none of that comes out very clearly in emails that tend to be bullet point style focused but don't reveal the nature of the issue.

I don't like calls either, but they are useful.
Beautiful art direction to be sure.

But let's be real, it's Super Metroid. :)
