Yeah, I was thinking of the same study. Looking at just the conversation on HN, lots of people are installing solar. Solar reduces the amount of energy used by that customer, but d…

Or just pay for Youtube.... $8/ month gets rid of most of the ads in videos, $15/month to remove ads from music, shorts, and search results.

They were the official music videos for the album, looks like Daft Punk released all of them on YouTube. This Playlist has them all in order: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSd…

Interstella 5555 is still one of my favorite movies. It's an anime movie where the entire soundtrack is the album Discovery. There are no vocals, the entire story is told by only t…

Yes, the First Amendment is about the government. Freedom of speech, in the other hand, is part of a moral code that believes in inalienable rights, that humans implicitly have the…

I was looking for a more direct measure of this, how often a model "leaked" private state into public state. In a game like this you probably want to sometimes share secrets, but i…

Considering these courses included assigned reading, and that total would include multiple novels, yes, that is cheap.

A replicator still cannot give everyone a beachfront villa.

Every time you say rocket chat, I have to appear. FWIW, the change at Red Hat has always been hard to separate between the forces of IBM and the reality of changing leadership. In …

Very. Election officials, across states and across parties, have been faithfully discharging their duties, often under pressure to not do so. This is a responsibility of the states…

Surrendering work to the public domain is actually more complicated. It's easy to make the claim that a work is public domain, but the law may not allow you to actually relinquish …

How would decentralization make a difference here? Fact checking only makes sense when a platform has people with multiple different beliefs about what is true. If people can self-…

FWIW, this doesn't only happen with promotions to "management". Senior IC roles often come with new responsibilities, like influencing influencing technical direction, often withou…

This is great. I think there is a tendency to apply the Peter Principle to others (ie the boss), but it applies just as well to ourselves. How long until we are all promoted into i…

I've also been looking at the export, but I don't see any way to filter down to "Shooting incidents". Just sampling the first 10, 10% of 2000 is looking like way less. Were you abl…

Looking at this database, they have a really loose definition of a "school shooting". I'm just going in order here, no picking and choosing. Here's the link if anyone wants to foll…

That driving and time is amortized across 1000s of deliveries.

That went away years ago

Sure, but there's a lot of speculation that it was a wronged customer. It could have been someone he works with. It could have been someone from his personal life. People who are n…

Just want to caution everyone to not jump to conclusions. Remember when Bob Lee was shot in San Francisco and everyone assumed it was because of how unsafe San Francisco is? And th…

That would still leave the problem if determining what state they were driving in, or allocating all the revenue to their state of residence even when they drive in other states as…

If this is for your own use, Red Hat has long had free developer licenses for rhel. https://developers.redhat.com/products/rhel/overview

Nice, I've only scratched the surface of Notebook LM, mainly for dumping lots of component reference material (datasheets, reference guides, application notes, etc). The text query…

Yeah, this is not creditors "making money". Anyone who had 1 bitcoin in FTX is not getting their 1 bitcoin back, which is massively more valuable. Instead, they are getting 119% of…
