Both Aristotle and Sokrates would grant the song one point: The demand to be productive every waking hour is not a moral truth. The boss and the father do not own the day. The problem is what the song puts in the space gained. It clears out the obligations, then it stops short of asking what the free day is for.

The marine industry would love a (non water soluble) glue that achieves structural strength on PTFE and POM.

What is the power consumption, the specs do not mention it. Does the 60Hz mean it now draws power even when the image on screen is static?

Cheating. Not involving the kernel at all.

I wonder how they implement is_computer_on() under Linux?

(https://www.haiku-os.org/legacy-docs/bebook/TheKernelKit_Sys...)

This is sooo true. I have multiple computing ideas that I want to do just for fun but I am not doing because each requires buying a mini-pc, sometimes with a screen too, and put Linux + my app on it.

At the same time I have multiple old phones laying around, Pixels, iPhones, Galaxy that are out of date, have cracked screens or worn out batteries.

Each one of these old phones have same or more computing power than a $300 mini-pc, but I can't use them because I can't just ssh into them and install an app...

Sad, really.

Another +1 from me at 62 years. My problem is this has led to me feeling like I am tech lead for a team of a dozen excellent developers, but I have no task for them!

1m? 1mm? Apparently I was seeing double

Yeah we had a good laugh when Downdetector was down during the Cloudflare outage yesterday. So this is appropriate. +1

I can imageine that. Although not using Channel Sounding, as it has a accuracy of +/- 200mm according to TFA. Which is still very good, though.

I wonder why when swipeing between the two sides of the disc it always appears convex from the currently viewed side, but flat when viewed edge on.

Anyone knows what could cause this?

I would question whether a PWM "technically" counts as digital... It is on and off, sure, but so is a mechanical power switch, which few would describe as digital. "Digital" is more when we get higher level values represented by multiple signals that are on or off (aka bits).

Totally agree. Dashboard felt like a thorn in the eye.

And read scrolls while having a a cocktail in the bar.

Sounds like a PERFECT chip for my next HomeAssistant box :-D

- Low power when only idling through events from the radio networks

- Low power and reasonable performance when classifying objects in a few video feeds.

- Higher power and performance when occasionally doing STT/TTS and inference on a small local LLM

Strong typing built in from the start. More approachable syntax (unless you are used to Ruby).

Maybe the white on top of their heads IS their hair? And Papa smurf was old and bald and used a hat to blend in.

The FLOSS tool https://drawdb.vercel.app/editor has been here on HN several times. IMHO also does a somewhat better job.

And there is a small team of Ericsson full time devs working on developing the language itself and the BEAM.

Don't forget Gleam! It is young, but has a less steep learning curve than Erlang/Elixir. And it is strongly and soundly typed, with errors as values.

The specs say 12 bit though.

Maybe launched a bit too quickly? You can select "Swedish" for the non-Swedish voices, but the results are very poor. Far from useable. And there is no Swedish voice. So that language support claim is made a bit to soon I would say.

Also I found no way to filter/sort the voice selection modal on language, so I have to visually search the entire list.

I passed the "Not like we would not have 150 tons of liquid Helium here" statement off as a joke until I got to the end and realized the author was NOT just another clock renovating hobbyist :-)

Thanks for an enjoyable read!

First paragraph of tfa mentions "768-dimensional vectors"

:-) I was expecting the counter to be degrees and to change the inclination. It didn't. The disappointment.

20 years ago I could spend months tweaking ocean surface in renders and not get even close to that. Amazing how good this is!!

Although the demo clip feels a bit exaggerated (saying this having over 50k Nm open water ocean sailing in my logbook). Waves that sharp and high would need the wind blowing a lot stronger. But I am sure that is just a parameter adjustment away!

Since it is in Godot I assume the rendering is real time? Does it need a monster GPU?

Generic Segmentation Offload

"GSO gains performance by enabling upper layer applications to process a smaller number of large packets (e.g. MTU size of 64KB), instead of processing higher numbers of small packets (e.g. MTU size of 1500B), thus reducing per-packet overhead."

I tried it out on a not so complex Postgres v15 DB. No relations were imported, just the tables?

...at ground level.
