You can probably reduce microplastic consumption, but it is quite a pain and more expensive. Try buying everything at the store not wrapped/bottled in plastic. This does not even work as well as you might think as many things are wrapped in plastic and then presented as if they were not. For example, breakfast sausages in the meat display at my local Whole Foods are wrapped in paper when they give it to you, but come to the store in ~1lb plastic wrapped packages.
Can confirm. I run my family on the free Google Workspace Starter edition that they offered years and years ago. And we are definitely second-class citizens when it comes to old, current, and new Google features.

TBH I'd love to find a way to disband everybody from the workspace but somehow keep their identity, history, photos, etc. Even if it meant getting new @gmail addresses.
To take it a bit further, the "unseen quality" does surface periodically, like when the proverbial chest of drawers ends its first life, and goes to the dump or gets restored.

The same is true in software when a developer inherits a codebase.

Those signs of quality turn into longevity, even when they face away from the user.
LOC. I may have got context wrong. Oops.
Well it’s working in practice so I don’t really know what to tell you.

> because each projects needs a different toolchain

Not true.

> Different languages

I don’t think a caveat for C/C++/zig source files was needed…

> Different tools

If your project is unwilling/able to verify builds on anything except an ancient version of GCC that’s your project’s problem. In practice that’s a minority.

> different target platforms

Zig has 1st class cross compilation to all major platforms.

If you’re using an embedded target you’ll need to vendor its linker script and boot code which is already the common practice.

I encourage you to try it before dismissing it.
That's cool. To me grapheneos is kind of the minimum reasonable level of security I think is ok (and I'm also worried about data leaking to google itself). To each their own acceptable security profile.
As far as I know there's not really LLMs good enough that can run locally. Maybe with the R1 improvements and future derivative work that'll change.

We use about 4-6 calls per improvement and use a mix of Anthropic and OpenAI. Interestingly we really couldn't get sufficiently good performance from just one model. It's interesting how they can be good or bad at different tasks where one task doesn't seem materially harder than the other.
Stands out to me too. I’m usually at 1-2 pages per minute when I’m focused and reading something easier but long non-fiction is more like 240 minutes for 10% of the book
I dunno. When I first read Norvig's beautiful solution, I immediately thought, "Only someone coming from a Lisp and (old school) AI background (or maybe a super-Mathy background where everything is a Set) would have picked that representation, but oh man does it work so, so well."
In terms of features, I imagine they are about the same. Here is why I think this. Maxima's function organization seems to follow and refers to the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions https://dlmf.nist.gov/

Mathematica and Sympy also seem to follow this organization.

My take: I blame compatibility on the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions.
There's a constant stream of people advertising gold, silver and now cryptocurrency as apocalypse hedges.

I still have the gold sovereigns I bought in 2008, but that wasn't anything like "all in", more of a shiny desk novelty.

can't buy a youtube premium family subscription either, which sucks!
also can't leave reviews in the google play store.
Honestly, I couldn't care less. It's one man shouting against another, it's pointless to try finding facts out of that.

But as a simple Pale Moon user, I can say you caused a big enough disruption to the project that even a user who doesn't really pay attention also noticed.

Now you're here again sidetracking the subject at hand with past dramallamas and seemingly getting your pantaloons moist at having stories besides your own also provided. No thanks.

He ignored the link about Thomas' massive gift/donation totals in my earlier post. He's heard about it but might be willfully ignoring it.
Lithium is not super precious, but its price is still a non-trivial multiply of aluminium's price.

Your graphs show it. They also show that there has not been a substantial reduction in its price over the years.

This means there is market potential for other (al/sodium) chemistries, mainly for grid-level storage.
There are a lot of electrons in a real piece of wire. As the author says, relativistic effects are usually negligible, but in this case the math does work out.

The other people it makes sense for (assuming they actually follow through) are those who are remote and don't want to or for some reason cannot move. This gives them an exemption to the RTO order and time to find a job.
Yep, and you can do anything you want to it! That doesn't mean that Apple or Nintendo or Steam has to do things that support your specific use case. Of course governments can regulate things, but that applies to any industry or product.

> Malls

The mall analogy doesn't work well because Apple isn't a mall in this case but more like a Wal-Mart. They aim to own the entire experience including the distribution of applications on the device. In the mall analogy Apple would own the mall and then each store could be viewed as an app that they allow in the mall.

Malls also limit what stores/apps can operate in them and have lots of rules. Where I live one of our more prominent malls requires tenants who are renting space at the mall to completely refresh the space or vacate after a certain number of years. Malls can arbitrarily raise rent and operating fees on the various shops within them too.
That's not the point.

The point is to put it front and center for the tech companies and the general community (think of it as a call for proposal).

Would Google have invested into self-driving if DGC had not happened? Very unclear.

Note that the initial Waymo team was a direct draft of the winning Stanford team at the DARPA Urban Challenge'07.
Or ionic? :)

On a boat, Aluminum "corrodes" and forms an oxide layer (also known as sapphire), which then protects it from further corrosion. But, said layer is not electrically conductive (or in this case does not allow Al ions to flow into the electrolyte), so you need something to prevent the protective layer from forming.
PlayCanvas React: Easy, Declarative 3D for React Developers
The OP comment was pretty specific and explicit that it is not going hard every day, it is about doing some minimal something every day to maintain and reenforce the habit. You asserted that you “explicitly require some zero days” but that is not true. You can have no zero gym days by using your heavy lifting rest days to do mobility exercises and stretching.
Do you really want the direction of an entire company to be dictated by AI? You act as if the CEO does nothing, which isn't true. One of the main jobs is networking/maintaining relationships, which isn't something that can be done with AI.

Jobs where you just sit and work all day with little human interaction will most likely be replaced by AI first.

Because they're not negligible. It's worth calculating it out. Length contraction produces a very slight increase in charge density of the nuclei, but there are a lot of charges and electromagnetism is very strong.
Aluminum's recycling infrastructure is based entirely on reusing essentially raw aluminum, and only exists because bauxite is so expensive to smelt without access to dedicated hydroelectric dams.

Recycling lithium in the form of extracting from batteries produces a significant amount of chemical waste, meaning that the cost savings of recycling is significantly less when compared with the difference between smelting and recycling aluminum.

"Can" has a great many meanings, even when the speaker is trying to tell the literal truth.

Meanwhile, the article mentions that Panama's President said he was cutting some ties with China...at the same time that he was denying any new deal with the US.

It's pretty plausible that cutting those ties was what the US actually cared about, and the rest of the situation is just noise & drama.
As to your first point, are you suggesting that a memo was sent out , dictating that plaques honoring protected groups were to be covered over? I highly doubt that. And if there had been such a directive, don't you think that it would have specified that the plaques were to be removed entirely, not merely covered over?

As for your second point, by the same reasoning, the California Missions should be razed to the ground. I disagree, and I think most other Californians disagree with that thinking. And I notice Yale University hasn't been renamed to Mather University yet -- the indignation of the left seems to lose steam when loss of prestige is involved.
Presentation bit confusing since it's written comparatively (opinions changed/added/retained) but there isn't a reference list. (Maybe they keep such a list in their personal notes.) Compared to the older post (at 6y), none has been flipped (and actually some were strengthened, e.g. typing in mixed experience teams going from better to essential).
Why do you believe this is malicious compliance? Clearly the people doing the plaque covering had direction to do something. We've all had those managers or directors that viewed any questions as impudence or insubordination. That style of management is common. Wouldn't Occam's razor have us assume unclear direction from an abrupt director?
Wow this is such a real life comment. Very much a breath of fresh air on a site devoted to software, business, politics.

Thanks for taking the time to write it.
Do the teams you're hiring for know that you're looking to avoid contacting whites, Asians or black people depending on the demographics you're missing until given no other option?

Do you try to get an approximation of society with that selective net you're casting? Of the field? Or is it more according to own preference with something like an equal amount of the subsections you can think of?
Show HN: Gemini 2.0 browser extension for AI bug reporting
Link: jam.dev/ai
Demo: https://x.com/jamdotdev/status/1887523689518014891

People are terrible at writing bug reports.

It’s insane that bug reporting is still done by hand. That’s how you end up with hours of back-and-forth for a 5 min fix. "What browser?" “Is it still happening?”

But this is a problem you can fix with tools. Humans are inherently error-prone when it comes to reporting bugs, but computers aren’t. Imagine a tool that plugs into devtools and grabs: session recording + network logs + error traces + AI that writes a summary and repro steps.

A few years ago, we built a tool that captures all the information you’d get in a HAR file plus screen recording and packages it into a link for engineers. (Like a screen recorder plus DevTools). It’s called jam.dev and people use it to capture more than half a million bugs each month now (which we are really excited about!)

Today we added an AI inside that analyzes all of the session data and errors/traces in the console and network logs and writes a concise description of the bug and lists out the exact repro steps, complete with timestamps mapped to the screen recording. It’s built with Gemini 2.0 which we used while in experimental mode. We chose Gemini because of Gemini’s native ability to process videos (which other LLMs don’t have).

I’d love for you to try it out and let me know your thoughts. My email is dani@jam.dev and I hope to hear from you!

I think people are going to have a large role in testing software for a long time (as long as humans are the users, humans need to be testers too), but what doesn’t need to be manually done is collecting debug information and writing it up into a ticket. Like Kasparov and Deep Blue, the strongest collab is human + computer paired together –– humans to their strengths, computers to theirs.

By the way, we’re hiring engineers and working on building AI for debugging, de-duplication and auto-resolution and if these are problems that excite you, we’d love to chat: jam.dev/careers
What every fan of removing protections ignores is that we have already tried the version without the regulation and collectively chose (imperfectly, to be sure) the current system. It is much harder for them to make an argument that we should return to the glory days of bank runs, child-labor, rivers that caught fire, tainted food, and childhood mortality.

There is no such thing as an unbiased new source. Rpoerting only articles with pure fact there is still selection bias in what topics are covered and what facts are presented. Giving equal coverage across articles and within results in both sides reporting which can seriously tilt the article.

Choose reputable sources and read with an understanding of the corespondent's perspective as well as the publication's. Diversify your choices to not isolate yourself.

I will say it again. I am not missing the point, I am refusing the point. The point you are bringing across is not a useful point in matters of law.

There is no reasonable way for us to deliberate on your made up scenarios, because in matters of law the details matter. The website hosting pi could very well be taking part in the copyright infringement, it could also very well not. Our way of weighing those details is the process of the law.

You place the question of PI in a vacuum, asking me if it should be illegal "in principle", but that's not law. The intent, appearance, skill of council, even the judge and jury, will matter if a case had to come up. You cannot separate the idealized question from the messy details of the fleshy humans.
It’s so strange to me that the biggest IT scandal in tears isn’t getting more attention on HN. It’s almost like this platform of wannabe billionaires is managed by people sympathetic to the cause of billionaires.

You assume wrong, good catch. It usually also applies to a generic brokerage account. Very hard to speak in generalities about this stuff, but no, I didn't mean to imply this is in any way because the accounts are special, but because the underlying investment vehicle is treated specially. Look up the rules around PFICs (Passive Foreign Investment Companies) if you want to get deeper into this.

The owner of the mall/phone gets to choose the stores in it. So Apple gets to have a store, and they get to choose not to sell porn apps, but there's the European store in the mall, and it seems they're a bit different and they choose to sell porn apps.
I believe you should be able to sort~of simulate higher level languages on the editor level. Writing c = a * b could just be a representation for the large blob of code or subroutine.*

What is particularly funny about your example is that 40 years later you still cant do multiplication or addition in js. You have to install packages (that are multiple computers in size!) after you make up your mind which of the 20+ different modules (read: "dependencies") has the right kind of multiplication for you! I'm not bitter, it's objectively ridiculous :)

* it should actually be c = a × b Without the asterix, we did actually have arithmetic reasonably standardized before IT de-standardized it.
Show HN: Watch fascism unfold in realtime – an AI-powered tracker
Hi HN, Wanted to share a project I made over the weekend - a real-time fascism tracker. The site fetches recent news from trusted sources, filters it for keywords related to fascism and the current US administration, and then sends it to GPT-4o for classification according to the 14 characteristics of fascism described by Dr. Lawrence Britt. With the rapid pace of news in the US, especially post-election, it’s hard to keep up. I built this site so you can quickly see important topics and draw parallels with similar historical events. Would love to hear your thoughts. - Ryan

From Quest to Horizon: How Meta's Shifting Priorities Are Affecting Developers
No it's not normal. What is normal is say congress and bankers meeting in secret under assumed identities on an (Jakyll) island to create institutions like the federal reserve that 'eases' massive inflation in while purposefully firewalled from democratic representation, and jammed through by their own admission before popular will can stop them.

So doing what was actually advertised is far less secret than much of what congress does.
> Your whole argument basically falls apart with this logic: "Republicans wanted to cheat to put a Republican in power, until they were stopped by a court of law, and when defeated, appealed to powerful Republicans, who voted along party lines to give more power to Republicans."

Alternatively: "Republicans wanted to clean up the voter rolls by removing self-declared non-citizens. Democrats wanted to cheat by allowing those non-citizens to vote so they went judge shopping till they found one that was willing to temporarily stop the effort. Republicans followed the process and appealed through the court system. And the final ruling by the highest court in the land agreed with the Republicans that the action was legal.".

So I'd argue the Democrats challenging the case are the ones that ended up on the illegal side.
Two things:

1) Lots of small things that interact constructively.

IIRC, the conduction electrons in copper have something like -13600 coulombs of charge per cubic centimetre, but that all cancels out with the positive ions right next to them; the magnetic fields from each electron's motion don't cancel out*, but the motion of the ions is ~ isotropic*, so they do cancel each other*.

2) The strength of the electric (and by extension magnetic) force is also strong, which in turn also helps make this easier to notice.

* in the lab frame
I think preventing. I don't think Ruby is a bad language, but I've never worked anywhere it was a first or even second class language. I like AsciiDoc, but it's a hard sell to convince people to manage an entire other language toolchain used for nothing but AsciiDoc. I don't think the distro packaged it, or maybe not a recent enough version, but I could be wrong.

It's already hard enough to get people to switch documentation formats, needing to manage another language for it is just a bridge too far everywhere I've worked. It would be an easier sell if it were statically compiled, or at least in an interpreted language we already used (Python or JS most places).
Maybe the performance of the puzzle also has some undeclared side channels.

One of my neighbors when I grew up was part of Hitler Youth, and had moved to the US after the war. (for time context, I'm in my mid 30s, and he died a decade ago at IIRC 95 or 96, and I asked him about it maybe 20 years ago.)

I asked him if he and his fellow youths knew of anything. He said at first, no, but pretty quickly when all the jewish-owned businesses vanished almost overnight, everyone knew something was up. Did they know about the camps? Debatable. But even the kids knew that they jewish population was kicked out of society.
