is that a quantized model or the full r1?

Yes, there was a protest in Seattle, SF, NYC a few weeks ago against Google's Project Nimbus (used by apartheid regime).

Hi! I have been wondering about whether investing into home assistant would be worth it to control my media center as well. Do you happen to have handy links to any resources you found helpful?

Slightly off-topic, but I have been interested in setting up Plex (or similar) in my homeserver but never figured out a good workflow or source to add movies/shows to it? Are people generally just torrenting, or are there DRM-free stores that I do not know exist? Or if there is an efficient workflow for ripping blurays?

sudo apt-get install firefox ?

You do realize by the same logic this inspires competitors to innovate...

they do not need super-user permissions. That would imply that the phone has to be rooted. over-coming certain settings that apply to regular apps? sure. but that's a very android/iOS specific feature-set that is exposed to all app developers.

Definitely agree with you on that. Making use of layers of abstraction and delegation is absolutely necessary when working on more and more impactful work.

I find it very similar to how understanding of OS and hardware fundamentals can make one a much better software engineer, how infrastructure in the cloud/servers are setup helps make better design decisions.

At least in my experience, my hobby of maintaining my own home server helped out immensely in my path in the industry due to knowing what tools are available when working on multi-faceted software designs.

That convenience has to be let go when working on operations-critical services. This feature is an absolute necessity in a lot of cases, and of course employees can complain, but not resolving certain issues urgently can mean that an entire hospital's system stays inaccessible overnight, or worse.

surprised to see no mention of CalyxOS [0], which is still pushing security updates to their oldest supported phone, the Pixel 2.

Try out https://calyxos.org/, their support is exclusive to Pixels, but without compromising security.

Science does not produce knowledge. Science tries to attach a model for people to reason about what we observe. Its like solving x1 + x2+ ...+ xn= 10, where we dont the extent of what x values can be, or even what operations are being used, all we can observe is the result: 10. Science is saying it could be n=2 and x1 is 3 and x2 is 7.

That isn't knowledge, we as a species can never actually know anything, since that's saying that some things can never be proved wrong, which goes against the philosophy of science.

Fact is the enemy of truth, knowledge the enemy of science.

A book came out about a year ago by a fantastic academic about the history of settler colonialism by Israel in Palestine [1]. I'd suggest anyone who wants to learn more about Israel and values referenced record of history. The book is very well written, referenced (a sixth of the book is references) and comes highly regarded.

Reading the review, i cant help but feel that the author was always planning to return the unit. They did not seem to spend much time actually using the tablet and invest in learning how to use it, they just took advantage of the return window, and from tge sounds of it, was always planning to.

Why is this post so far down the front page (no. 16 at the time of writing)? There are older posts with way less points in the top 10, is there some weird HN algo ranking the posts?

This is the exact same reason I can't go for a OnePlus myself. I would look elsewhere.

edit: even if you flash the phone with open-source ROMs and firmware, the closed-nature of cellphones in general make it nigh impossible to know what hardware backdoors the manufacturers are forced to put in.

50 lines for configuration of a blog is not what I'd have personally called "simple". Granted GUIs (e.g. AWS console as mentioned in the blog) are not as easy as an config file, the comparison should be against other blog deployment programs, like hugo/jekyll/ghost, not.. the AWS console.

I had a G14 that I ended up returning. for points 2 and 3, I had no issues at all in the few months I used it.

A side note: the build quality was extremely disappointing, coming from an XPS 13.

As mentioned in the other comment, emacs does those things, and so does Vim (with plugins of course).

I moved from sublime to atom to VS code, but eventually settled on Vim because I was able to get the same features (that I used) while getting almost instant response. A feeling that has completely changed how much I enjoy writing any sort of text.

cough vim cough

I'm just kidding. Don't want to start a fight here.

I was in the market for a car last year, and wanted to specifically buy a car from $BRAND. To my dismay, all their 2020 models were replaced with touchscreens, after many years of being behind on replacing their older hardware controlled infotainment.

I ended up buying a second hand lease return model from 2018 instead. I understand why they don't provide that as an optional upgrade (increased manufacturing and maintenance costs for two different systems), but I really wish they did.

I started reading the "Performance" section, and after reading that he is writing this on Atom, I didn't need to read any further.

If it can run atom, it can pretty much anything.

Off-topic: but why does nautil.us still on unsecured HTTP?

What if people use VPNs to avoid being tracked by Google.

A lot of it, and all of it eventually. The folks at codeweavers (wine maintainers) have partnered up with valve (and likely sponsored) to work on this since last year.

This was my first question, thanks!

The platform is the web, not the browsers themselves. The web is an open platform, while some browser push for proprietary features. This is not like Windows vs Linux where each of those OSes are separate platforms, and supporting both can be difficult.

As an outsider without context, the articles does nothing to properly introduce the people (like who is PG and which Jessica?) it's talking about. Even if it's a response post to something, you should always reference some context so people interested in the subject matter have further reading material instead of relying on letting them figure it out by Ctrl-F-ing through hacker news comments.

Less destroying the world by harvesting user data and integrating ads as part of the operating system?
