I can always count on an eye-roll from my wife when I have the rare chance to drop the "I've not yet begun to defile myself" line, haha... ah great now I need to go re-watch Tombstone
April, 2022. In the NYTimes app version of the article as you scroll down information about the "part" you are on stays at the top like a sticky nav to give better context. So for where your quote comes form it says "Part 1 February - May 2022"
The human ear is sensitive to phase correlation. It stems from the physiological fact that our ear is effectively a multiresolution filter. So with an overtone-rich tone, the time constant with which we perceive the uppermost harmonics is significantly less than the period of the base harmonic. So if the sonic energy of those harmonics is correlated into small "packets", we hear that as a "buzzing". This is true of raw synthesis waveforms: sawtooth, square, etc. It's also true of any short transients: clapping, hi-hats, etc.

If you "mess with" the phase information of the harmonics relative to the base harmonic, this is the same thing as changing where the sonic energy of those harmonics falls in the wavecycle. So notably, in the cases listed above where the sonic energy falls into small "packets", if you randomize that phase information relative to a much lower tone (as Paulstretch does), you now have spread that energy throughout the full wavecycle. This eliminates any sensation of "buzzing" or "clicking" and makes transients "mushy".
I think this is the opposite direction?

How will this impact self-signed local certificates? Can we still use a five-year lifespan on those or do we need to reduce it to <398 days?
He thinks its xenophobic and sees tariffs that are not reciprocal.

I recognize that. It just has no bearing whether or not the US should enact retaliatory tariffs. Does he believe the US should enact tariffs to meet the tariffs other countries already have on the US? He can evade and resort to accusations of xenophobia all he wants but that is the question I'm posing.

Always remember that all these regulatory/legal limits don’t apply in any emergency or life preservation situations. The FCC, by law and their own rules, can’t/won’t come after you if you emit on any band with any power saying anything if you happen to be “under rubble”.
I was thinking that this would be low-hanging fruit for a model. The parameter space is so tiny compared to what a diffusion model already has to deal with...
This is so cool to see. Plan9 was a wonderful part of my COVID isolation, and I miss playing with it. This might have inspired me to spin up a 9front VM this weekend.
In this case not as then you find the wrong sl - you need to know where the correct sl was installed.
It’s been a while but I used a bunch of these tools continuously for years. I mostly always used sslyze, because it was very versatile and gave me the info I wanted, whether it was around ciphers, tickets, cert chain validations, etc. I think testssl.sh did almost or possibly everything I wanted, but not sure.

SSLyze also has a decent Python library.

The problem with it though is the license. I wanted to build it into some other tooling but the license held me back.

I ended up building my own tooling that did just what I needed and built an API around it.
You will love dockge then.

My wife convinced me that we should buy a dark gray car cause it would be less obviously dirty. I deeply regret not trying harder to convince her back, so we'd get a bright red or yellow one instead. It's super hard to find the car back on a parking lot and who cares when it's dirty? Bright colors are nice. I'm now trying to compensate by only buying colorful clothing going forward.
Then yopu get the sl there which could be correct.
Could you expand more on what you would like out of an "enterprise Plan 9"?
My kids and I were kind of flabbergasted after listening to the "Song Exploder" podcast's episode on the Weezer song "Summer Elaine and Drunk Dori" about how Rivers Cuomo writes songs.

Basically, he obscures interesting chord progressions of songs he finds by recording his own simplified version without the song's original rhythm. Then he takes his spreadsheet he made over years, of lyrical phrases he came up with that he thinks will sound good in a song, organized by number of syllables and where the accent lands. Then, finally, some time in the futuer, once he has forgotten the original song's construction, he takes out the chord progression and finds places to fit different kinds of lyrical phrases.

It blew us away to know that his lyrics have no meaning whatsoever. In fact, that particular song was the result of a conversation between two teachers he overheard at one of his children's end of year gettogether.

It is quite extraordinary, and he is quite good at it, though we have few Weezer songs in our playlist.

Our third grader just started viola this school year and I was amazed at how cheap the rental was! I was expecting to get raked over the coals monthly, but it was just a little over $100 for the entire year. The chin rest was one thing we didn’t have to pay for, the schools have the younger kids use a big foam sponge attached with a rubber band.
I'm not allowed to say "you're missing the point" because it's against HN rules, but maybe don't focus on this particular item so much?

It illustrates the dynamics of strictures on global trade with a simple item that has several inputs and that China is the most likely to win out in these sorts of situations because of their low cost advantage.

Cars or something are probably a better example but there are so many complicating factors that would make it less illustrative.
It might be of some interest to cultural historians in the future. But I think it makes more sense to take sample+curated data. But in any case if we can afford it, eh why not.
Welcome, Tom! Thanks for supporting this community for so long. Your work is much appreciated!
> I don't want constant "riotous color", as the article puts it, in my home, or my workplace, or while I'm driving. It's visually exhausting.

could a factor driving current monotone style be less about aesthetics and taste and more that we're all just cognitively exhausted?

everything is fighting for our attention because our attention has been monetized. so when something bland shows up, it simultaneously provides a bit of respite and can seem more 'trustworthy' because it isn't clamoring for your attention.

if i were buying some kitchen appliances and i had a choice between a brightly colored models or a stark, utilitarian models, i have to admit that the stark ones have appeal because they "look professional" (even though it may not actually be pro quality) and "the color is just a sales gimmick" (even though boring industrial grey is also a sales gimmick)
Do the goalposts have to keep moving until we can no longer find any gap in common knowledge or eccentric behavior in AI? If so, what does that say about eccentric human beings?

Excessive use of colour can certainly be vulgar - but restrained use is a valuable tool for clarity. As I type this, Firefox shows no hint at all that it has input focus, other than the tab's background being very slightly lighter and the tab's title text being very slightly darker. It's not so very long ago that colour would have been used to communicate this information clearly and unambiguously.
Not about steam locomotives. Disappointed.
Makes sense, Bezos is the only oligarch without a pet social media app.
I quit my last job because I was so destroyed by anxiety, to the point I had physical issues like shortness of breath, throat tightness, racing thoughts and even some thoughts of not wanting to exist anymore. I quit that job to focus on getting healthy. Now that I am feeling healthier though, this job market is destroying me and I haven’t been able to get a “true” software developer role since. I do software at a meat manufacturer and its very chill. The funny thing is that I have so much mental energy that I can work on stuff I want to. Before I was doing backend software development but wasn’t super passionate about the technology. Now I am learning vulkan, ray tracing, 3d modeling and rigging, among other things. So idk I would love a job in those things, but for now having a less demanding job is better for me than a more demanding job doing something I am not that passionate about.
I live in South Africa, and when I traveled to the Netherlands on holiday last year, I was quite taken aback at how muted everyone's clothing was.

It is definitely not like that here - everything from our flag down is full of color.
There's a really interesting book about this exact topic: https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/chromophobia

edit: ha, the book is mentioned halfway through the essay. I should finish reading before commenting.

I agree with the book's thesis - there's an impulse to associate colour with "the oriental, the feminine, the infantile, the vulgar, or the pathological" in contemporary western society. We've somehow managed to other color itself.

"The central argument of Chromophobia is that a chromophobic impulse – a fear of corruption or contamination through colour – lurks within much Western cultural and intellectual thought. This is apparent in the many and varied attempts to purge colour, either by making it the property of some ‘foreign body’ – the oriental, the feminine, the infantile, the vulgar, or the pathological – or by relegating it to the realm of the superficial, the supplementary, the inessential, or the cosmetic.
Chromophobia has been a cultural phenomenon since ancient Greek times; this book is concerned with forms of resistance to it. Writers have tended to look no further than the end of the nineteenth century. David Batchelor seeks to go beyond the limits of earlier studies, analysing the motivations behind chromophobia and considering the work of writers and artists who have been prepared to look at colour as a positive value. Exploring a wide range of imagery including Melville’s ‘great white whale’, Huxley’s reflections on mescaline, and Le Corbusier’s ‘Journey to the East’, Batchelor also discusses the use of colour in Pop, Minimal, and more recent art."

Love the phrasing. I found myself in the past few days getting in a pair of disputes in HN comments that may have boiled down reading the exaggerated adjectives literally, when the authors may not have intended that.
Which allows AI clients to create and list invoices. Hopefully they don't add support for payments unless there's someone in the loop that has to manually approve those payments.
Yes you're correct, my apologies. There has been work on this going the other way as well: https://github.com/michaelforney/wl9. But there's still a lot more than can be done. There are vague plans to test the waters implementing something like this in to our vmx(1).
Congrats Tom! Thank you for your service.
There are solutions, like VNC to some UNIX-ish machine, but, yeah, a native browser would be cool! 9front has a hypervisor, you could run something in there. https://man.9front.org/1/vmx
> such as US farmers

The foreign strategy of punishing industries in regions that voted for Trump makes sense. So does subsidizing US farmers because we want to overproduce food to ensure supply stability. A key job of government is to step when when markets would/will fail, and markets don't like over-producing.
If you look close, they seem to have been always committed to create and maintain an impression that a) Nintendo makes perfect products that just works, and b) you can't negotiate a deal to your advantages with Nintendo. And I think it has to be part of their hardwired company policy as a surviving hanafuda card manufacturer in Kyoto - those cards were used in literally yakuza-controlled underground gambling for a long time.

I mean, just go watch The Godfather, and think how would you sell him a product, or worse yet, manufacture mass-market products that isn't intended for his acquaintances but he would be extremely interested with purchasing and using in substantial numbers. Lots of Nintendo behaviors and customer horror stories start making total sense.

(and Valve behaviors too. they have their own, no less adamant than Nintendo policies that you start noticing after a while)

3-5 years typical, when I was looking at the newer ones at an auction site to play with most were IR with some bluetooth etc..

The link you provided appear to probably be IR based, but it was one of the brands that was a dead end for official docs when I was looking at them.

The newest ones seem to be using Periodic Advertising with Responses (PAwR) that was introduced in Bluetooth 5.4, but I couldn't find those type for a price I was willing to pay.

Nordic Semiconductors has an Apache licensed SDK and RToS, I didn't find the device and time to play with it but bookmarked it.

They are asking beginners in both the control and test arm, so it sounds like they have "proven" something (or at least given good evidence).
Also - try and adopt a growth mindset with a “can do” attitude.

It’s not your job to submit perfect, flawless code, it’s your job to understand the problem and submit a solution to the best of your abilities.

When you get feedback, don’t see it as criticism, see it as a mis-communication of requirements (how can we get better at that) or a learning chance (oh wow I never thought of that - yes let me fix it asap)

If there was something to learn genuinely then learn it, if there was someone just nit picking then be flexible and adopt their standards (within reason)

Part of being senior dev is unblocking and helping others, and a simple, positive, “can do” attitude and asking people “how can I help you more” can help the organisations culture and productivity more than “perfect code”

Naturally it is also possible you’re working in a place with a bad culture, in which case you need to switch.
no not so simple. Another underlying fear is that many people are predators. Universal income would enable unwanted predators. Of course, successful predators have already implemented long term income for their groups that is satisfactory to themselves and their chosen members. Many successful examples show that membership must be earned, showing some basic positives. Freeloading is also a fear, but it is related to gluttony. Successful people are also often gluttons, so that is not solved. Rivalry means "it is not enough to succeed ourselves, the opponent must lose" .. and gluttons tend to be rivalrous of other gluttons.
Maybe you can, but I haven't seen anyone do that. It is tricky because the cases are apparently glued shut, so you need to do some delicate surgery to access the screen without breaking the device.[0, 1]

What on the face of those two statements is a conflict?
Bare supports both iOS and Android, yes. Bare Kit provides some convenient abstractions for integrating Bare with native application frameworks like Swift UI and the Android service architecture, but plain Bare runs just fine on iOS and Android out of the box. There's even prebuilt binaries for both platforms.

Yeah, my theory was that the yellow ones caught people's eye since it stood out from the visual clutter, but yellow isn't anyone's favorite color, so you end up buying blue or red...
It's the "other stuff"/flavor compounds, definitely.

I don't think brewed coffee contains any meaningful amounts of sugar?

Coffee (filter/brewed, not espresso) is ~98.5% water by weight, even if the Eugenioides species has more sugar in the beans than Arabica (it might! literally no idea here) — if the difference would be "just" down to the sugar levels, I don't think it would be noticeable at the dilution levels we're talking about.

The difference in the natural sweetness vs adding sugar is an interesting question, honestly!

Sugar is usually added to coffee to hide/mask/round out the bitterness; whether naturally occurring or from overly developed roast. But it also masks/drowns out other notes, too. You'll get less bitterness, but less of the acidity, the floralness, of all the other subtleties that can make coffee great — you'll get _sugar_ sweetness (and it's a very different kind of sweetness than coffee can naturally have!), and less of everything else.

Eugenioides is different because it just doesn't have that baseline note of bitter/hashness _at all_, and it's naturally pretty sweet.

Instead of sugar, I think the "magic berries" (I never tried!) that mess with your bitterness perception might work better? I'm actually now curious to try it out...

At some point you have to stop waving your hands and hand him the pen, though. What question can be asked that can be used to distinguish genuine human intelligence from intelligence simulated by a machine?

Searle thought he had come up with just such a question, but it turned out that he hadn't.
Here are couple of thoughts:

- Whenever anxiety fills my mind, I like to look deep space images to remind myself that all the human problems here on Earth are just made up. No other animal cares "economy", "startups", "performance reviews", "jiras" etc. What we humans have created here is truly form of "matrix" that forces to play by its rules, but it is illusion.

- If you think what other people think of you, the most probable answer is, they don't think anything of you, or if they think, one such thinking might last ~10 seconds. There are just too many people and too little time to think other people. No one probably cares, at least that is my own experience.

- I have always been the slowest performer in my jobs (and many times got special coaching/discussions because of that), yet it usually have been me who got promotions. It is because faster people usually just churn the same stuff, while my slow work has given me time to think what the work is actually about, and produce something completely new line of thinking and valuables that other people just don't do, because they just keep churching and churning the same.

- Keep up with the most important basics: sleep, healthy food, and physical exercise, to have energy for mental work.

Besides the time and cost to do that, which may make it uneconomic, there is also the fact that their inputs would be subject to tariffs in the US and exports to other countries from the US would be subject to retaliatory tariffs.

Your point is basically Trump propaganda at this point. Tariffs have historically had unintended consequences. For instance the tariffs on LCD screens basically killed the laptop industry in the US.

Maybe, just maybe, after 20 years of tariffs it might come true, for a limited selection of products, but consumers would be paying higher prices in the meantime, which may destroy the market.
