Palantir (in tolkien lore) isn't evil itself - it's only used for evil in the hands of those who wield it.
The Vulkan-specific flags are needed (1) to set up the llama.cpp build options when building Ollama w/ Vulkan support - which apparently is still a challenge with the current PR, if the latest comments on the GitHub page are accurate; also (2) to pick how many model layers should be run on the GPU, depending on available GPU memory. Llama.cpp doesn't do that for you, you have to set that option yourself or just tell it to move "everything", which often fails with an error. (Finding the right amount is actually a trial-and-error process which depends on the model, quantization and also varies depending on how much context you have in the current conversation. If you have too many layers loaded and too little GPU memory, a large context can result in unpredictable breakage.)
Income from a corporate entity is taxed twice by the time it gets to an individual. If I own a corporation and live in California, first I pay 21% on the profits and then 52% on what is left before it gets to my bank account.

I don't think "looking" means signing up specifically. The advice is pretty generic, and it could be just users using the site/app/product. I think it just happens that a lot of products are going to have a sign up component if they're not just content for consumption.
An IDE is largely just a wrapper over terminal commands plus a set of language-specific editing affordances. If your language has a good LSP, vim (with a few plugins) can be all you need in a professional setting.
As I read the article this is exactly what I wished the watch could do, and I wondered if there are any around which do it.

I have a free diving watch and always wondered… Why doesn’t it support tides? If even approximately? I wrote a script to check DFO tides once per week and alert me to potentially good diving conditions (cross referenced with the 2 week weather forecast; it’s not super reliable), but I’d love to have a read out of the tide right on my watch.

I guess I could do this with my Apple Watch, but I’m so burned out on that ecosystem.
At the bottom it says: UI: 0.19.3

So I guess I just have to wait for them to update. Thanks for that!
They also decided to rehost the model files in their own (closed) library/repository + store the files split into layers on disk, so you cannot easily reuse model-files between applications. I think the point is that models can share layers, I'm not sure how much space you actually save, I just know that if you use both LM Studio + Ollama you cannot share models but if you use LM Studio + llama.cpp you can share the same files between them, no need to download duplicate model weights.
I skimmed this out of curiosity, but I couldn't actually find what the Flying Eagle method is.

And this book is full of just, debunked non-scientific views:

> At age 24, my brain finally matured

That's... that's not a thing that happens. The "brains mature at 24" myth stems from a study that only followed people until approximately that age, and noted changes the entire time. If the study had kept going, it might have discovered that brains never "fully mature".

And the "research" section is just "I did a poll, and I wish someone would do research."

My checklist basically has me go through a workflow for bootstrapping the day.

-Start a 15 minute time

-Sweep events and tasks from three different calendars into my schedule for the day. Each task list is divided into "24-hour" "1-week" "1-month" deadline objects. Each time I read through each list, I move tasks around as neccessary within the list, and potentially mark certain items as not being chunked small enough - e.g. the first thing to do about those tasks is to decompose them into subtasks.

Then I look at the list of things I've selected for the day, and assign short tasks to the first block of the day, and then two longer blocks for focused work, using timers all the way. 15 minute timers for the short tasks, 2-hour timers for the long ones.

Items don't get deleted off the to do lists when they get transported to my daily list - they get deleted when I go through those tasks the next day and mark them done in my journal. That way I don't lose tasks that don't get done at the end of the day..

None of this matters. You need to figure out what your sticking points are each day and address those creatively. Mine were not starting tasks because I didn't know where to start exactly, and getting distracted during a task. My system still isn't perfect - I often lose track of things after lunch sometime and stop being effective. It's a battle every day, but you get to build your own weapons to fight it.

Good luck.
Wayland bugs out on my machine so it’s X11 for life (or at least maybe until I get a different GPU or something idk).

> The Linux kernel is de facto pretty tightly coupled with GNU stuff,

It's really not; Linux is fine with ex. Alpine or Android userspace, and builds with clang.

Er, I mostly certainly do object strongly to the GNU monoculture too.
Wow, this is such a cool hack. Taking a Casio F-91W—literally the indestructible watch—and giving it a microcontroller brain while keeping that retro LCD? Pure genius. The pluggable sensor module (starting with a thermometer!) is what sold me. Now I’m daydreaming about slapping on an air quality sensor, an NFC chip, or… honestly, why not a tiny radiation detector?

But flashing firmware via USB on a Casio? That’s the kind of absurdly cool detail that makes me love hardware tinkering. It’s like giving your grandpa’s old pickup truck a Tesla battery but keeping the patina.

Huge props for keeping it open and hackable.
Much appreciated, I’ll give it a look
If there is one thing the original is, it’s too flashy. :)

Kidding aside, that looks pretty neat.

I was there, at the dawn. I remember spigots giving out whole-ass bitcoins.

The "we're going to change the world" folks either became, or were pushed out by the, Gordon Gekko cosplayers approximately 227 milliseconds after the bitcoin whitepaper was published.

As far as I can tell, a larger value in goods and services, real non-crypto-related tangible things and actions, are purchased in Chuck-e-cheese tokens than crypto.

Crypto is tulip bulbs for the IT Crowd. It's hyper-tax-evading-money-laundering on steroids. It is everything about "duh banksters" the liars promoting crypto claimed to be against times ten trillion.

Crypto is like some very smart people took every negative aspect of the socio-economic system we find ourselves trapped within and amplified them because they realized the grift to be had, then they wrapped it all in a thin veneer of freedom and rebellion.

There is no freedom there.
Yep, that's exactly it. The police needs to be held to a higher standard than ordinary citizens in terms of law compliance.
>"String" sounds are implemented by having two ranks tuned slightly different from each other.

The effect you describe is called "voix celeste" (or just "celeste") on pipe organs. But it's common to have "string" stops without the detuning. These are just open flue pipes with unusually narrow scaling, which causes them to produce lots of upper harmonics and weak fundamentals, like real bowed string instruments.
The main feature IMO is the model library. llama.cpp on its own does not come with any built in way to download and manage models.
The campaign for the next presidential election started the day after the last. The far-right got this and are actively working to discredit any possible competing candidate.

Right now is a great time for Dems to start working hard on taking back both houses. Start mapping districts that can be flipped, districts with low voter registration, and which messages they will bombard these people with.
I love the paper - don't read into the negative comments. I find that a lot of online feedback (more so on Reddit and much less so on HN (usually)) tends to be opinionated and misinformed by quite a bit these days. Fantastic work and fantastic read.
so the thing that makes this complicated is that having non-coding DNA that does nothing for an individual can still be helpful for a population. they essentially serve the same purpose as commented out code that is really common when devs aren't using version control. the comments won't affect the program as it currently exists at all, but they make it so small changes to the code can more easily change the functionality.

I'm assuming they are using mineral oil; I've not filled a watch with mineral oil, but I have worked with it. Mineral oil is not particularly viscous; some gentle tapping is probably enough to get all the bubbles out.

Here's a video of a PC immersed in mineral oil with an aquarium bubbler and you can see the bubbles rise fairly quickly:

>Further irony would be if Trump took the USA out of NATO they might strengthen the commitment!

It wouldn't surprise me if he did. Trump seems to believe the US is somehow being swindled and cheated by every international agreement and commitment it has. It's a weird victim mentality for the world's last superpower to express, as if the US didn't force the current order onto the Western world at gunpoint, entirely for its own benefit.
He should have said "buns" and not "bums".
Not really meant to be "damning", I'm a pretty big functional programming advocate (I've spoken at the Lambda Days conference four times and the Clojure Conj once).

It feels like the trend right now is to bolt on one or two "functional libraries" into your "normal" language and pretend that that's the same as writing Haskell or Ocaml. People have actually expressed such sentiments to me because Java has the optional type and a "map" function for the Streams API. When I suggest writing something in a functional language, the response is always "it's too hard" or "we won't be able to hire for that", as if engineers are somehow unable to learn new things.
This reads exactly like it was written by Claude. Was it? It's the exact same writing style.

> DeepSeek's first-generation reasoning models are achieving performance comparable to OpenAI's o1 across math, code, and reasoning tasks! Give it a try! 7B distilled: ollama run deepseek-r1:7b

Are really misleading. Reading the first part, you think the second part is that model that gives "performance comparable to OpenAI's o1" but it's not, it's a distilled model with way worse performance. Yes, they do say it's the distilled model, but I hope I'm not alone in seeing how people less careful would confuse the two.

If they're doing this on purpose, I'd leave a very bad taste in my mouth. If they're doing this accidentally, it also gives me reason to pause and re-evaluate what they're doing.
Perhaps "interesting to read" does not correlate directly to "healthy discussion". It's a feature that Lobste.rs has low volume commentary, it leads to more authentic response less ad-hominem or passive-aggressive commentary like HN is constantly flooded with.
Yes, honestly i think this is the largest contribution to HNs successful place in its niche. Every other website turned from articles to images to infinite scroll politics and gifs. They all did that because it sells more ads. HN has never made a design change that prioritizes anything over articles. And even when it does conform to the greater trends of most people reading comments over articles (increasing bubblifiation of popular beliefs) the comments are much huge quality here because we're all the kind of people who like a site with articles, and thus more people actually read the articles, and the feedback does not include the internet ubiquitous "social credit score" seen on numerical stats around every comment on nearly every other website.
Ok you made me laugh out loud in a local Coffee shop!!
Appendix is being appreciated these days as a reservoir of good gut bacteria. So there’s actually probably some pressure to keep it around. Appendicitis is a thing but of course not everyone suffers it. Maybe in the primitive world you were more likely to see your skull meet a rock before that happened in significant numbers of people in the population to the point it affected offspring counts.

We should want the best astronauts, not the most diverse. It's the same as wanting the best doctor, or the best pilot.

The UK team for Olympic 100m is majority non-white. I have no doubt that these are amongst the fastest people in the world. Based on DEI standards, should we pick people who are shown slower just to make a more colourful team?

re: cancer survival. Are you referring to this work from 2020, showing that the US has more cancer than the EU, even though odds of survival are better?

The US Has Higher Incidence, Survival of Rare Cancers Compared With Europe (2020)
https://www.ajmc.com/view/the-us-has-higher-incidence-surviv...

and shows that
Age-adjusted incidence for all rare cancers combined was 17 percentage points higher in the United States than in Europe. The 5-year net survival for all rare cancers was significantly higher in the United States compared with Europe (54% vs 48%).

so 17% more likely to have it and a 6% increase in survival.

The missions are flown through that airspace multiple times per day, and it's all for national security purposes. You can't put a hold on all commercial air traffic every time, and you need to train the pilots to navigate and communicate through that particular airspace.

Whether the system (i.e. separating rotary-wing and fixed-wing traffic there) can be more safely designed is a question for the FAA. The military aircraft are simply abiding by FAA rules for that airspace. Many more civilian helicopters are doing the same thing.
I can see two possible reasons:

- in some areas, it is mandatory to allow a refund period (like 14 days) for stuff bought online

- it probably convinces more people to subscribe, knowing that a refund is possible

Can we be sure that we don't need the appendix ?

We used to think tonsils are optional as well, and there seem to have been some studies that find a link between tonsillectomy & Crohn's, Hodgkin's or even breast cancer (from wikipedia).

There surely must be vestigial parts in our organisms, like the one in the article, but more often than not we have no fucking clue how they interconnect with the whole and what their function is.

I think. I'm not a doctor or anything.
Huh. Fun to see this on HN again (all to all the Casio love). That watch isn't what I wear daily. Instead, I have a Casio Lineage (this model: https://www.casio.com/europe/watches/casio/product.LCW-M170D...) which I love for its lack of connectedness, that it keeps itself charged from the sun, and sets itself from DCF77.

Don't worry, they will fail real quick and get promoted.
The problem with 'HN but for [x]' sites is that what they offer is just a subset of HN. Game dev posts might not be the most popular here, but they're still allowed and do get some traction from time to time - so there's little incentive to post somewhere that has even fewer eyes.

IMO for a site like this to succeed it needs to offer something HN doesn't. Chat, subforums, personal promotion section, something.

It's really going to depend on what you want to host and how you want to interact with it as an admin.

For Node app hosting, I've been enjoying Render over the past year or so. But it seems like opinions on them are mixed among the HN audience:

If you look at that thread, you'll see comparable services mentioned as well, like Fly.io, Vercel, etc.

But if what you want to host is a WordPress site or just a Linux server, the options to consider are going to be different.
> Hopefully someday the community can rally around something better.

I don't disagree, but at the same time I always feel like users keep this infinite laundry list of requirements just to conveniently excuse themselves of any commitment.

Case in point: I can host a Lemmy instance for customers (up to 100 users) for less than $20/month. I manage all the software, security and deal with the inconveniences of alpha software. People need "just" to bring friends and make sure that everyone there behave like decent human beings. I also pledge to give 20% of my profits to the developers.

In theory it's a win-win-win. In practice, people just prefer to stick with Instagram or going to Bluesky because that doesn't require anything from them.
I used to think this, but after reading about engagement numbers elsewhere, Hacker News is actually very small when compared to other venues.
