This is a fantastic use of the D-Wave technology and really highlights the ability to use annealing for a wide range of use cases. I'm definitely going to follow this development c…

I've been seeing Mac folklore posted to HN recently - this is a fantastically well produced podcast that goes through folklore.org and other articles from the time period, with asi…

Well, if your system elastically uses GPU compute and needs to be able to spin up, run compute on a GPU, and spin down in a predictable amount of time to provide reasonable UX, lau…

>Over the past five years, there has been undeniable hype around quantum computing—hype around approaches, timelines, applications, and more. As far back as 2017, vendors were clai…

Is there any evidence Buterin is on the spectrum, rather than just being a Standard Nerd?

> I don't mind that idea - if it turned out installing heated seats failed in say... 28% of installations, fine - charge me more for a model with functioning heated seats. I know y…

Same here. It's barebones, but it's also cheap and plentiful on the used market, has enough functionality to be useful without being overwhelming, and fits easily in a backpack. Di…

So go to the website and use it. Many of us simply find it as a way for more propaganda to be fed to us unasked-for when we open up a new tab (at least, until we remember to turn i…

Some of us would love to work on a team like this. It would be nice to have the option. Your definition of "acceptable" might not actually result in teams that can take on the big …

If you find this interesting, the excellent Mac Folklore Radio podcast has a few episodes on this: https://macfolkloreradio.com/2021/06/21/bob-hearn-a-brief-hi...

Correct. The availability of cheap credit + higher than normal resale values for vehicles of late has led to a situation where people are overextending themselves and buying vehicl…

Yes, if you have H.Pylori it can cause all sorts of problems, acid reflux, bad breath, gastritis, ulcers, etc. I'm no doctor but I have been tested for this in the past; I think it…

I would love something like this to help with dependencies between microservices as well.

I for one am glad to run a version that Eric S. Raymond has officially blessed.

I'm no farmer, but I'm all ears! If you have dry useless soil and can't water it, does it not have some residual value as an export product? I suppose this is assuming that there's…

Sounds like they should just start digging up and selling the soil, no?

> Every kind of functionality you can imagine already exists in open formats with powerful programs designed to make it easy for you to compose rich documents. Not only that, but t…

There are real, usable, near-realtime Quantum Annealers, which are different from gate model quantum computers, but have proven to be much more amenable to physical implementation.…

I'm not suggesting running your own mail server. Hosts like Hostineer do that for you. Setting up forwarding takes three seconds in a web UI.

Sure, but unless your family is growing rapidly, it shouldn't be something you have to do very often.

You can easily get hosting for ~$20/yr from classic web hosts like Hostineer and just set up email forwarding to people's personal Gmail and get the same functionality with a littl…
