I'm pretty sure FinTS/HBCI is a mostly only used here in Germany sadly. Which is a shame because all this "OpenBanking" stuff requires registering/paying/certificates etc.
Can't see much coming of this. At the very least the largest two parties are all for this kind of encryption backdoor and regardless of what the 'court' decides parliament can just legislate around it.
Comments are supposed to get more substantive as the conversation goes on. Do you have something substantive to add? Because mocking me ain't that. Especially when it doesn't even make sense -- I'm not the one saying taxes are theft, pretending I'm rugged and independent.
Nor should you have a reason to replace it. The device is barely 4 years old. There was a time until very recently when laptops would be expected to last 10+ years minimum with minor RAM and SSD updates.
Intel Products Unveils Assured Supply Chain Program
(submitter)

Here's the abstract.

Stefan Mandel is the man who won the lottery 14 times. He never disclosed the recipe he called combinatorial condensation, which enabled him to hit the Romanian lottery jackpot in the early phase of his betting career. Combinatorial condensation is frequently mixed up with another strategy known as buying the pot, which Stefan Mandel was pursuing later on. On occasion, he dropped a few hints on combinatorial condensation. The hints are applied in this work to narrow down and assess his initial recipe. The underlying theory resembles what a weekend mathematician, as he once referred to himself, may have encountered in the 1960s. Calculations indicate that he took residual risks that his method might fail. Residual risks explain why he changed his strategy from combinatorial condensation to buying the pot. The cardinality of the (15, 6, 6, 5)- and (49, 6, 6, 5)-lottery schemes shows that Stefan Mandel probably wasn't aware of lottery designs. First concepts on such topics had been available at that time, but coherent theories on combinatorial designs took off only in later decades, triggered by growing computing power, and eventually triggered by Stefan Mandel's publicity and successes in the field. But, as the comparison with actual covering designs reveals, Stefan Mandel most likely pioneered in constructing a (15, 6, 5)-covering design many years before others published about it, which he applied in the Romanian lottery.
Speaking as an Apache Superset committer/PMC member, this is awesome. We love to see more use cases and implementations of Apache Superset out there in the world. We're trying to spread the word about Superset (and Preset!) as far and wide as we can in the BI world, and this is another great use case.
When it stops being statistics they notice.
Why would you expect that? Also, the M4 is faster than the M3, but that doesn't mean Apple couldn't or didn't want to fuse two of them together for an M4 Ultra.

Is an Intel 10700K faster than a 12400F? The generations are different but the chips have vastly different capabilities and features.

M4 is the generation. The modifier modifies the generation. M4 Pro is an M4 with some extra pizzaz. M4 Max is an M4 with lots of extra pizzaz.
Compare: The Strategic Beanie-Baby Reserve. What does it accomplish? Betraying American taxpayers in order to enrich the manufacturer and collectors.

P.S.: For that matter, why not the Strategic Russian Ruble Reserve?

Sure, it means asking US taxpayers to suffer in order to prop up a warmongering dictator whose local propaganda is that America might need to be nuked, but modern Republicans think it'd be awesome 'cuz reasons.
I don’t know much about fiber to be honest but wouldn’t the exact location be possible to determine with time of flight measurements?
Hm, the AI services over 5 years cost half of m4 max minimal configuration which can barely run severely lobotomized LLaMA 70B. And they provide significantly better models.

Well, that's the rub and ultimate downfall of our current implementation of capitalism.

Even if you have a good idea that almost nobody else has yet thought of, you've got to have enough resources to be able to comfortably execute it such that if you fail, your life won't be over. Most of the time, the only people who can do that already have a lot of money. So most innovators and innovation naturally have to come from people that already have money and connections; HOWEVER, there's very little reason to believe only good ideas come from people with money or power.

So little Timmy from Kansas might have even thought this was a nifty idea, but Timmy's dad is going to roll his eyes and get back to work. Nobody on the ground is ever going to be able to execute what is a relatively obvious play. Instead, they lose their time-advantage and big Timoteo from Malta comes in for the prize.

Worse still, big Timoteo has now accumulated more resources that puts him even further ahead of the pack for future such endeavours that should really need have success tied to starting resources.

Here's what I use in my .zshrc with VS Code:

alias reload="source ~/.zshrc >/dev/null"
alias zshconfig="code --wait --new-window ~/.zshrc && reload"

the --wait flag tells zsh that it's not done executing until the window/file is closed.
That's not true at all. AMD cards and drivers exist and are often competitive with Nvidia cards. Not to mention, the difference in FPS is often not as noticeable as you probably think.

Poor argument.
They're talking about the world that most people live in, where lawyers are expensive and bureaucracies are run by computers and people looking at computers. They're saying that 90% of the time, the computer is correct, and people will look at you strangely if you say that "No, my contract with the insurance company says that it has to cover this medication, so your pharmacy has to fill it, regardless of what the insurance's computer system says". Everyone knows that the insurance's computer system has a bug, everybody knows that the medication they're trying to give me should be covered, but nobody is able to fix it.
Had the M3 GPU been much wider, it would be constrained by the memory bandwidth. It might still have an advantage over Nvidia competitors in that it has 512GB accessible to it and will need to push less memory across socket boundaries.

It all depends on the workload you want to run.
Anyone remember fazed.org (slogan: until the weekend heals us) ? Absolutely loved that site, in a way, it was similar to hn in design and "random interesting stuff" type of content.. For me, what killed it was the now long dead "stumple upon" (well, maybe not dead, but they did something years ago to make it suck more)
That's a hilarious comment given the complaints about the BLS reports the last 4 years.

I'm not aware that Strix Halo has shipped on desktop. I thought it was only shipped on laptops and tablets? And Framework announced a desktop but did not ship it yet.
But then they'd have to open up their internal documentation of their silicon, which could possibly be a legal disaster (patents).
I switch between refresh rates ranging from 60hz and 240hz every day and while I certainly notice the difference, unless I’m running games I adjust and forget about it in seconds. While VRR 120hz+ on all Apple device screens would be nice it’s not exactly a dealbreaker… it’s not like rendering my IDE with 2x+ extra frames changes much of anything.
With respect, parent comment is right. It is "just" destiled water with some salts. You also have to remove dissolved gasses and store it in good bags. Tricky part are contaminants and paperwork.

We had similar situation in communist czechoslovakia. There was a plan to manufacture female hygiene products, in a single factory for entire country. This factory burned down on second year of five year plan. So for some time our ladies were forced to use toilet paper. We still managed to make IV fluids though!

My guess US planning is a bit similar. Too special to import medical supplies from neighbours or from Europe.

Most internet forms that ask for gender have absolutely no reason to care about that information. Basically, biological sex should matter to healthcare professionals, and gender should matter to virtually nobody. So yes, "simply remove it" should be the answer to this most of the time.
Ha! Good point. No argument there.
You haven't studied well enough as due process being largely secondary to both royal prerogative and parliamentary sovereignty, with there being (even to this day) a scepticism and sometimes outright hostility to the role and scope of the judiciary, is something you missed.

Many people care less about the odds and more about feeling that things are fair, that they are the same for everyone.
Well, I don't think it should be allowed because it basically defeats the purpose of a lottery, but, as Matt points out in his article, I think a better way to prevent it is to make it easier.

If it becomes super easy to purchase millions of lottery tickets, then any arbitrageur would likely be dissuaded because the risk of someone else doing it (and having to share the winnings) go up by a ton. You could still have collusion, but that should be enforceable by laws against collusion I'd hope.

It this case there were rules to prevent arbitrage that were basically just not enforced by the lottery commission, and that's really the only reason this was possible.
If Apple had the wherewithall, theyd give up on the UK and be done with it. Should they not prevail legally. Pipe dream, I know.
Why not a surface laptop 7?

That config would also use about 10x the power, and you still wouldn't be able to run a model over 32GB whereas the studio can easily cope with 70B llama and plenty of space to grow.

I think it actually is perfect for local inference in a way that build or any other pc build in this price range would be.
a lot of school is redundant, and the courses are often non-sequential

skipping chapters of a novel doesn't work very well, but it works great for the encyclopedia, and pretty well for a lot of textbooks

But a fraction of the ticket sales are also rolled back into the lottery. These people won when it was almost 4:1 payout.
This is also quite convenient when you buy a new laptop and just unplug/plug and that's it, you have everything.
"Do you want economic growth and innovation to be dependent on the amount of shiny rocks we happen to find lying about?"

Definitely not. I prefer decentralisation. People have right to exchange without interference of third party that shape value centrally.
Flagged, interesting which stories gets flaged
I wouldn't discard the idea, but OTOH, life -had to happen somewhere first-. That first clearly happened, and without extraterrestrial seeding. So that life either evolved, or ... because of the chemical makeup of the universe ... life is inevitable given the necessary conditions. This latter is a simpler and sufficient model.
M4 Air pricing is very competitive too. At $1200, 16GB/512GB configuration feels right on money. Pros, yes definitely more pricey.
Instead of dragging them over you should create a link. This way it's the same as before for Applications like VS Code.

As a side note, my home state also allows online purchasing of lotto tickets through "couriers", which turns out to be a strange workaround that let companies like Lotto.com or Jackpocket operate in some states:

Yup, the Courts are ultimately there to fulfil the will of Parliament: if there's a clear power granted by Parliament to do this sort of thing, and there's no compelling objection from other areas of law, then this is more just a delaying tactic.
Sure. But now you have a more verbose heading that places the emphasis (by being earlier in the title) on information that’s not actually relevant to the article itself. While also making is sound less accessible to the general audience of that specific website.

In short, that’s not an improvement.

This is a classic case of the HN crowd not understanding that different audiences are interested in different details.

Hi, the author here.

So BeanHub is built on top of Beancount and uses double-entry accounting. It's one of the benefits of double-entry accounting. Many accounting software are not good at dealing with multi-currencies or custom currency. With Beancount, you can define any commodity you want, create transactions, and convert them with different currencies easily. For example, you can define a commodity TSM and create transactions[1] like this:

2025-01-01 commodity TSM

2025-03-05 * "Purchase TSMC"

Assets:US:Bank:WellsFargo:Checking -2,000 USD @ 100 TSM

Assets:US:Bank:Robinhood 20 TSM

I think many people trade crypto, and traditional accounting software may not be that friendly to them. That's why I emphasized a bit to the crypto target audience. But you're right; I should make it clearer that it's not just for crypto.

If you think of FE web development as just HTML, CSS, JS and the framework de jour then I could see that. However, the most skilled FE engineers I know aren’t just doing that. It involves handling CI/CD, performance profiling/enhancements, CDNs, debugging node environments, asset management, caching strategies and the list goes on. I’m not necessarily arguing that it should be included in CS degrees but all of that is surely not a designers job.
I don't know, the expiration of low interest rates seems to fully explain the slump in the software industry, without considering the advent of chatbot-assisted coding. The job market is just much smaller and new entrants will unfortunately have a tough time. We may be back to the days of de rigeur unpaid software internships, or college grads taking other, non-programming jobs.

But it seems like a bad sign for a technology when think pieces need to be written portraying skeptics as cro-magnons on the evolutionary scale of adoption, there's something very "emperor's new clothes" about it. The value of revolutionary tech typically speaks for itself and doesn't need extensive apologetics.
Because it's GPU and CPU ram.
Yes, because it would be unforgivably woke to acknowledge women as people.
The M3 Ultra studio also wouldn't be able to run path traced Cyberpunk at all no matter how much RAM it has. Workloads other than local inference LLMs exist, you know :) After all, if the only thing this was built to do was run LLMs then they wouldn't have bothered adding so many CPU cores or video engines. CPU cores (along with networking) being 2 of the specs highlighted by the person I was responding to, so they were obviously valuing more than just LLM use cases.
it was my first experience with a country that was completely encircled by another country (I think San Marino and the Vatican are the only other two).
Spinola Gaming are hardly shadowy. Since a few years back they're owned by HeadsUp Entertainment, HDUP on whatever stock market.

It's not surprising that a corporation specialised in producing B2B products for lottery and gambling corporations sussed out this opportunity, it's kind of their core competency to figure out such things and make them obvious to their customers in their offerings.

You should try again, there's a lot of variation on interview performance. Also, Google is a bit unique in that they put a lot of emphasis on what your thought process is, compared to other FAANGs. If you just code a working solution and didn't ask enough questions, that might only get you a mediocre score.

Levine is having a bit of fun. Contracts are an agreement between two parties; in other Money Stuffs he's talked about how the written contract is also secondary to the agreement as understood by both parties. The paperwork makes it easier to enforce in court, but you can (even in 2025) still have enforceable contracts with just a handshake.

Oh well. DuckDuckGo has served me well for many years now and as long as I switch off all their AI overview nonsense, it's pretty much the same as it ever was (just a bit harder to find real human-grade content amongst the flood of generated SEO spam).
It’s not the author’s logic. It’s the court’s logic.

Contracts are messy in the real world. Sorting it out can be tricky. The various doctrines of estoppel are relevant for sorting things out.

Of particular pertinence to this case, “conventional estoppel” means that if both parties consistently behave in a certain way that can become an expectation to be relied upon (over-simplified!)

In this case, if the guy reasonable relied on the convention that he would be notified when they expired, and wasn’t, then he may have an estoppel claim.

There is a large framework around contract law that takes a semester in law school just for the introduction.

Darwinism explains how the biological transformations and adaptations lead to racial diversity. However, the very goal which drives the adaptation, growth, reproduction or replication etc is not clearly explained, in my view. Questions like, why should the creatures have a root goal of growth and reproduction, why should a cell divide etc might need more thought. Was there a cognitive intention behind this adaptation? How did that intention originate and evolve? If the intention originated from inorganic material, does it still happen?

my read as a US person is that math academy is optimized towards students who would otherwise be well served by an in-person supplemental math program. at the earlier grades for math academy (grades 4-5 etc) the main competition i've encountered are in person programs like AoPS, Russian Math, or Kumon. The prices for those range between $450-$100/mo and for a student or student and parent combo that may be looking to supplement their math classes or for somebody who needs to home school for a period of time, mathacademy at $50/mo is a steal.
Do Back-End Developers Even Have Portfolios?
For ~3 months now, I have been building https://www.webportfolios.dev - a place for showcasing developer portfolios.

Within this amount of time, I have occasionally tried to find portfolios from back end developers to reach out to, but I've noticed that they are surprisingly rare compared to front-end or full-stack portfolios. This got me wondering—do back-end developers even bother creating portfolios?

If you’re a back-end dev, do you have one? If not, do you feel like it’s unnecessary for your career? Would a well-structured portfolio actually help in job searches, or is LinkedIn and GitHub enough?

That said, I disagree with Matt interpretation that the computer entry overrode the contract. Arbitrator stipulated compensation based on the contract date, not the computer executed date

When someone has 35 million of options, i would expect both parties have some duty to understand the terms. That said, they also have a duty to not misrepresent the contract after the fact.
