> For cycling there are now a group of trusted companies that many people purchase from - WinSpace, Magene, iGPSport, that stand behind their products.

Their products can also be bought either directly or from other bike-specialized shops, they don't sell exclusively through Aliexpress.
This update wasn't really "unexpected", as there have been patches and updates for AmigaOS 3.x from various sources (not just Hyperion Entertainment) every few years.

Hyperion is operating while insolvent and has failed to file nine years' worth of accounts (2009-2014 and 2022-2024). Yet - perhaps because of that - they still found the resources to sue Amiga in 2018 in an attempt to seize its assets (https://x.com/amigadocuments/status/1897157746019196951).

The developers behind AmigaOS 3.2.3 are working for free, while Hyperion simply slaps its name on the box and the proceeds are being funneled into the lawsuit against Amiga.

For anyone who actually cares about the platform, it's as disheartening as it is infuriating.
Try buying a decent toaster, I've found exactly the same. $20, $30, and $50 options all using the same internal mechanism with a different style of shell and minor changes to the control circuit, or $200-$1k models that are mostly marketed for commercial kitchens/hospitality use. Not a whole lot in between.
It's in NGX 1566
I do!

I also follow Peak Torque, who is very hot on engineering. Hambini is ok, but pretty brash and abrasive.
I use archivebox for this. No requirement for an extension, just a simple bookmarklet.
AMD teases its first 2nm chip, EPYC 'Venice' fabbed on TSMC N2 node
Belgian Francs, presumably.
Except the brands I'm talking about sell directly - the stuff you're buying on Amazon is the cheapest drop shipped products on Ali marked up ridiculously to extract the maximum profit.
Amazon is AliExpress without the free market.
Not sure what the point of this article, it seems to focus on confusion which could be cleared up with a simple visit to wikipedia.

> But I have no idea what entropy is, and from what I find, neither do most other people.

The article does not go on to explain what entropy is, it just tries to explain away some hypothetical claims about entropy which as far as we can tell do hold, and does not explain why, if they were wrong, they do in fact hold.
Am I reading this wrong or does this almost open up any server bound to localhost to the outside?

I think proxy_pass will forward traffic even when the root and try_files directives fail because the junction/symlink don't exist? And "listen 80" binds on all interfaces doesn't it, not just on localhost?

Is this clever? Sure. But this is also the thing you forget about in 6 months and then when you install any app that has a localhost web management interface (like syncthing) you've accidentally exposed your entire computer including your ssh keys to the internet.
Definitely not what they were, especially for more junior developers as I understand it. And I assume total comp is somewhat depressed too if only because of the stock market.
Well due to events in the US, I think governments at the very least should be very careful with having projects be reliant on Github, given that US has and can decide to lock off your country.

When they are in a position of power, they can also gatekeep access to other people's repositories, not just your own.
Discourse seems to be a modern forum platform that handles a good deal of that. The tricky thing is paying for it, including configuring it and/or paying someone to do that.
Regardless of where you land on Meta's ethics, this case feels like a high-stakes stress test for retroactive antitrust enforcement. If the FTC succeeds here, it basically rewrites the "finality" of M&A decisions in tech... and that'll ripple way beyond Meta.
He's a guy who ran a PR firm, he has no technical background or experience. He specifically stopped covering crypto because AI "generated more clicks". He only covers OpenAI because it's the one with the biggest brand recognition. He doesn't know anything about the underlying technology. His entire thesis that a single hyped company, that has no moat by the way, is some kind of single point of failure for the entire tech sector.
> create so much pollution and waste in the process

Your environmental footprint depends on your income and your country.

Everything bought is environmentally unfriendly in proportion to the cost.

The only exception is something where the only purpose is to be environmentally good (maybe planting some trees, maybe something that reduces energy usage).

Complaining about specific things being bad is almost pointless.
What’s wrong with it taking a billion of our years to tick? Just because we, smaller than microscopic beings compared to the size of the larger structures we observe, find it to be a vastly long time, doesn’t mean that it’s a long time for something the size of the observable universe.

For a single bacteria cell, our timeframes must seem immense too.

I’m not saying it’s particularly likely, but it’s a trap to think that just because you can’t fathom the scales that makes it impossible. The universe is huge and very very old. It can afford to wait what is a long time to us for something to happen.

I do think you’re likely right in practice though, and that it is too long for the universe to be an organism. But who knows. We already know that mathematically speaking the heat death of the universe looks identical to a very zoomed in big bang, maybe we just need to zoom out a few billion orders of magnitude to see the big picture, where the vast distances and time scales we see appear as little more than micrometers and microseconds apart…
Anyone else wish Google would just stay away from MCP? They manage to ruin everything.
Sydney to Canberra centre for government adjacent business you probably don't need a car. The train is near parliament and probably near your office and hotel. Maybe a taxi to get to the city centre which is 5 min away.
Amazon is just not a good place to go, you're going to be buying something very low cost that someone is drop-shipping as a way to maximise their profit, not provide a good product.

You need to know the brands to buy (Trace Velo, Peak Torque and China Cycling helps here) and buy directly from their Ali Express store, or from their website.

Amazon is only if you need a cheap bike maintenance tool within a couple of days that you're happy only using a few times before you have to throw it out. Not for components.
As hackers, what can we do to work against the genocide, unconstitutional arrests, Zionist expansionism, Israeli control of western politics, etc?
Yeah especially as in places like London there have been many explosions and house fires originaying from cheap foreign e-bike batteries.

Some Chinese companies care about a long-term brand and place high standards on themselves but it's not true that anything online has passed safety standards. It's hard to differentiate the two due to the amount of fake reviews also.
Also called freedom from consequences. Free speech makes sense in a free society, freedom from consequences does not. Yet that's what they're calling for.
Much like brexit this will be a case of hindsight for many - people realising too late that they voted against their own interests
No, it's a horrible use, relying on something entirely unreliable to make medical diagnoses. All the AI safety people who pretend to worry about killer robots or whatever should actually be up in arms about these kind of uses, but you can see where actual priorities lie.

The best use of AI in medicine would be to automate away administrative bloat to let people get proper medical care.
I don't know what #TeamTrees is, nor do I know what MrBeast's involvement in it is. I only know _of_ MrBeast because of some workplace controversy that spilled on to the general internet recently.

I also did not specifically say trees need to be used. I mentioned fast growing things like bamboo. If there is another biological organism (GMO or not) that accumulates carbon-rich biomass faster, then I'm interested in understanding how that compares to more modern CCS techniques that require electricity for example.
If this is a concern you have, you should use software that works for you.
Which is in the past I would reach out to something like Perl on its heyday, given its coverage of UNIX API as part of the standard library, for anything manipulating CLI tools or config files.

Nowadays pick your scripting language, and if C is really needed, cleanly placing it in a loadable module with all security invariants into that scripting, or managed language, instead of 100% pure C source.

My solution since early 2000's.
It always cracks me up when Meta trots out the "but look, there's competition now!" argument like that somehow erases the intent behind those acquisitions
Also why does their website have to look so damn ugly? Is it so hard to design something inviting? I know that's not what really matters for a git server, but I just can't take such a project seriously. "Who knows what else they didn't really care about?" in the back of my head...
Especially when a huge portion of GitHub is not Git (wiki, discussions, issues, ci...)
How to tell that a product got hamfisted by marketing engineer without saying it got hamfisted by a marketing engineer.
Also the fact that all your team knows how to use is Github pull requests, and they will whine like crazy if you move to a different model.
Reading through the documentation, I get a sense that the "agent" server could be any application that exposes an agent card and follows the protocol. Doesn't really have to be using LLM or be "agentic" (guess that's where the agent black box) comes in.

Cycling is a fairly low-impact activity for your body, and is a great way to get some exercise if you are out of shape, with a fairly low risk of getting exercise-related injuries. (Compared to, say, running)

The only thing you'll really need to "train" are your "sit-bones". A good, soft-ish, wide saddle will help, as well as padded shorts. In fact, for your comfort, padded shorts are a must-have.

Rediscovering the origins of my Lisp journey
Reading this thread is mind-boggling. People complaining that cheap garbage from Temu is falling apart. People proudly proclaiming that they order Chinese crap almost daily. An argument about whether one crap peddler is better than another one.

Am I taking crazy pills? Am I the only one who buys things a few times per year? This rampant consumerism is depressing.
It's fun to think that at some point it will be actually vast and completely dark
Can the thread title be rewritten to be less obnoxious? “How many supernova explode every year?” is fine. This isn’t Reddit. Thread titles should not imply some kind of personality or use cliche meme speak. The all caps is definitely an abomination.
Well, I stand corrected!

However, it may not include the real estate income, but it does include the income from extra ridership created by the real estate being near the station.
Not everywhere in the globe, the difference now is that those overseas teams can be reduced as well, as we outsource their work into AI managed systems.
The article states a new price of $0.00003 /1k requests, an order of magnitude lower than your indication. Maybe you have miscounted the number of zeroes, or did I miss something in the calculation?
I believe people being educated on how to protect their privacy is a plus, but I'd rather live on a planet that didn't require such extreme measures.
But that is unfair competition against rule-abiding vendors. Platforms like Ali and Temu should face the most strict limitations for that alone.
If you're seriously ill, you should get treatment, not walk around hoping that a piece of cloth will save others from exposure to whatever it is you're coughing up.
Shopee has even worse behavior around reviews. You can't even leave a review past the first few days, and they bribe you with shopee points to leave a review.

The result is people opening the box, going yep, it works, 5 stars, gimme those points.

If it breaks a week or so later? Too late! No way to give feedback.
It makes sense if you need ad revenue.
There are camera doorbells with PoE.
I have written long methods and will do so again and I wouldn't say it's because I have larger working memory or some other supposedly superior attribute. Some methods are just a long series of steps that you can just write one after another. Reading it from top to bottom is exactly as difficult/confusing/whatever as reading them as separate methods would be (assuming you put short comments in the same places where you would otherwise break it up). I think people just don't want inexperienced programmers to do that because they'll end up with tons of mutable state spanning the whole thing, and it's easier to tell them to break it up into methods than to explain what you mean by mutable state and limited scope.

Meta's stuff gets a lot of attention because it's flashy and tied to social media drama, but the structural power of Amazon, YouTube, Apple, and Google is way scarier long-term. They're not just dominating products - they're controlling infrastructure. Distribution, discovery, monetization - the whole stack.
Actually, as Winston well knew, it was only four years since Oceania had been at war with Eastasia and in alliance with Eurasia. But that was merely a piece of furtive knowledge which he happened to possess because his memory was not satisfactorily under control. Officially the change of partners had never happened. Oceania was at war with Eurasia: therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.

[..] The frightening thing, he reflected for the ten thousandth time [..] was that it might all be true. If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say of this or that event, it never happened -- that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death?

[..] It was quite simple. All that was needed was an unending series of victories over your own memory. 'Reality control', they called it: in Newspeak, 'doublethink'
Until america experiences the full consequences for their stupidity they will continue being stupid. Children get told 100's of times they will burn their hand if they touch the stove. In the best case scenario they touch it once anyway, with a responsible person nearby and then never again.

The sooner that happens the better for everyone it is.
Always was puzzled by this "use present/imperative" prescription, to be fair. Shouldn't the messages about the past work be preterite/simple past? "Added support for OpenFizz 3.1", "Fixed FOO-2123 with foos that don't foo", "Changed default shell from /bin/fish to /bin/tcsh", etc. Heck, even the titular xkcd has initial commit messages in the Past Simple.
But GDP (PPP) is not the same as purchasing power, no? I don't know of any actual data but you can imagine two countries, both with the same GDP (PPP), same population size, shared currency (so the PPP doesn't factor in). One has organized its production and labor force in such a way that everyone has a relatively equal share of the pie, and the other one consists of a massive wage slave class getting by on poverty wages and a privileged few who reap the benefits of production. Surely the first of these two countries is more interesting to global ecommerce companies from a sales perspective.
I personally am always weary of cheap power banks. Given the rest of the corners cut on the device, how sure are you that the circuitry and the batteries themselves are of acceptable safety standards.

Even the batteries in expensive devices can become dangerous and I would assume that those undergo some higher leven of QA, testing and safety standards.
Wow, this is a "full circle" moment. I can distinctly remember installing my first WAMP (Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack back in ~03 when I was learning to program. It was all easy point-and-click installers. I think I may have had to edit a config file to enable PHP, but that was it.
Childhood dream aside, this to me seems like a much more legit use of AI than, say, generative art, so lame and pointless.

Every time I see a comment accusing HN of having some specific consensual position like a hive mind, I go back and see comments both contradicting and supporting the stance. In other words, different opinions. Every single time I check, and every single time it shows the original commenter engaged in selection bias.

This case is particularly wrong, as that iPod quote is from Slashdot. HN didn’t even exist in 2001.

48% doesn't include healthcare (it is another about 170 euro/month per person, and, really, you don't have choice for better or worse conditions, formally there is "market" for this but it is very regulated) or pension. Some industries (but not software/IT one) have industry-wide pension funds, but it is additional payments and if you are in industry without this fund you can go to one of the "open" pension funds and put your money in them.

I've been following prompt injection for 2.5 years and until last week I hadn't seen any convincing mitigations for it - the proposed solutions were almost all optimistic versions of "if we train a good enough model it won't get tricked any more", which doesn't work.

What changed is the new CaMeL paper from DeepMind, which notably does not rely on AI models to detect attacks: https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.18813

I hope so. When WhatsApp was acquired, they claimed that it would not be possible to cross-reference users between Facebook and WhatsApp. On both platforms users were required to provide a phone number. Cross-referencing users was trivial, and it's still amazing that this lie was accepted as truth at the time.

Not only they get low rates, but if they have friends in the palace, they tend to be beneficiaries of large governmental contracts; during times of economic upset, they are the beneficiaries of large “monetary injections” that later cause inflation and prices to rise for all of us. During 2008, COVID, and the Mango recession the wealthy got much much wealthier, and all we got was expensive eggs and higher costs of living.

If I got the math right, then about 1 in every 32,000 stars in the universe goes supernova each year. That's scary. But I think I'm getting the math very wrong.

edit: I guess my error might be related to confusing a probability factor with the number of incidents in a period.

edit: The right answer is probably up to 1 in every 10bn stars go supernovae in the universe each year (or 1 in 10bn die and a fraction are supernovae). Thanks: yzydserd and

To be fair, the iPod comment was on Slashdot
Blindly, strong word- I agree.

By saying 'trusting blindly' I meant 'dismissing possibility of incorrect diagnosis and applying prescribed procedure withought weighting the risk'.

So, if GP gave diagnosis and informed about the risks and outlined other diagnosis that are less probable based on his experience, and the patient weighted the risk and decided to go with the procedure without taking 2nd opinion, that in my opinion would not be 'trusting blindly'
