Given how easy it is to blow out a Phillips head with a drill and a bit that's not perfect, and given how much difference a good 135 degree jobber bit from a reputable manufacturer like Norseman makes, I can't see this being very

If they're not your words, which you've just admitted they're not, then it's slop and sounds and reads like shit. I can't believe someone would use AI for translation given how easy it is to peg it as LLM generated

As an experiment, I've tried working with a Dell Wyse 5070 with the memory maxed out. Even for development work, outside of some egregious compile times for large projects, it actually worked ok with Debian and XFCE for everything incl

AI generated slop like your comment here should be a ban-worthy offense. Either you've fed the it through an LLM or you've managed to perfect the art of using flowery language to say little with a lot of big words.

So does this mean we get Sealab 2021 in real life soon?

I think it wasn't just AMD winding down production of that SoC, but also that the Intel NICs being used on the APU2s (i210 and i211) were also getting hard to come by. Given how well designed and built those devices were, _especially_

I absolutely believe it, but it feels so crazy as the libraries, both as a student and as a community member at various points, for the local universities are by far the most useful and important resource they provide.

Has any SPAC ever actually succeeded in the sense that whatever it purchased didn't die after a year or was atleast profitable? Every one of them always seemed like a huge obvious scam to dump the bags on dumb money.

Well, there was an attempt at it. There was a startup run by one of the best startup guys I've ever seen, Dave Wright, called Reserve Trust, which managed to actually get a fed account. I think some people in power caught wind of it, a

Solidfire (which never got talked about at all on HN) fits the bill nicely.

It's probably going to take way more than just free daycare to make a dent. If declining birthrates can be swung back to a more neutral rate like 2.1, it probably will mean wide reaching financial, cultural, and general societal change

AWS has a "hobby mode": they call it Lightsail.

I agree but would take it further: a very aggressive income tax on any non-primary earner in a household that has a total income above 2 or 3 times the median wage. I know there's a lot of "line must go up" types that salivat

I don't know, seems incomplete even for climate stuff. It shows some front range locations in CO as having no real risks, but there's no category for hail, which is a regular and very serious climate and weather related problem.

Other than relatively rare ice storms, central KY always seemed to not have super crazy weather.

You're much less likely to be able to get local talent into what amounts to indentured servitude, and local talent also is much more likely to want the real prevailing wage for their work. It's all just labor arbitrage.

I think the unintuitive thing is that by "port mapping", Docker is doing DNAT which doesn't trigger the input firewall rules. Unless you're relatively well versed in the behavior of iptables or notables, you probably exp

Wikis are great, but it feels like outside of Wikipedia they've been dying. I wish bashhackers was still with us, and regret even more that there's not other large old school wikis for things like systems software development or o

The underlying AD radio supposedly does 200 kHz to 56 MHz, so presumably a typo. I wish they would say more about the front end of the radio and filtering, for that kind of money.

That doesn't sound like a bad idea, but it's just as easy to create a bunch of LXC containers with their own MAC address and IP for me (and thus own hostname per service).

The killer product for "AI" isn't even really as a programming aid; it's generating an absolute torrent of plausible looking spam and otherwise committing fraud.

Almost every early electronic throttle like that drives like pure ass, and newer ones are hit or miss at best. Toyota seems have done a decent job with it, but everyone else kind of keeps pooching it. That falls in with a lot of stuff that

There was a related Andy Kessler OpEd in the WSJ recently that shared the same tone (I can't tell if Andy is being sarcastic, but he's full of a lot of bad ideas, so I doubt it). He was advocating for wholesale removal of a lot of
