At least currently the images are never seen by a person and are deleted after ATR.
Re:Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux on Thursday December 11, 2025 @11:20AM (#46233322)
I have had nothing but issues with HDMI. Doing development and trying to integrate HDMI into a hardware design. Everything should just be Display Port. No question. It is a racket.
Re:Peanut Allergies Have Plummeted in Children on Monday October 20, 2025 @08:06PM (#45650950)
My son has a peanut allergy. He was deemed very severe. He started treatment daily peanut doses. Starting at 5 mg. He is now eating 4 peanuts a day and counting. Zero issues with exposure now. If you have a kid with a peanut allergy find an allergist who will desensitize them.see https://www.palforzia.com/
Re:Fast Fourier Transforms Part 1: Cooley-Tukey on Friday September 19, 2025 @09:30AM (#45301480)
It would be interesting to see how it compares to https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/mtr/pocketfft. The c++ branch is header only. I believe this is what scipy uses by default
Re:Ask HN: How to learn CUDA to professional level on Sunday June 08, 2025 @09:57AM (#44217044)
I think you just pick a problem you want to solve with gpu programming and go for it. Learning what you need along the way. Nvidia blog posts are great for learning things along the way such as https://devblogs.nvidia.com/cuda-pro-tip-write-flexible-kern...
Re:I Don't Like NumPy on Thursday May 15, 2025 @10:14PM (#44001248)
I've found matlabs's JIT to be about on par with numba for loops.
I'm just building a new house this year and Ethernet to every room is standard in this area. In a different state in the US coax is standard in new construction. (We just moved) It varies by location.
Re:TeX and Typst: Layout Models on Friday February 14, 2025 @05:03PM (#43053598)
This is exactly right. I like latex not because it's super ergonomic, but if I use a template I don't have to think about any formatting.

I know you wanted wired, but a point to point wireless link might be a good fit. https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/ubb

I think this 43" screen is amazing for coding. Lots of vertical and horizontal space!

Re:Ask HN: My son might be blind – how to best support on Thursday September 19, 2024 @10:06AM (#41592016)
This is a fair question. We are working with the pediatrician, neurologist, optician, etc. we are ina birth to 3 program. Definitely not just me worrying. There hasn't been aconclusive diagnosis yet, but like I said things are concerning.
Re:Ask HN: My son might be blind – how to best support on Thursday September 19, 2024 @09:56AM (#41591883)
Very interesting. I'll keep that in mind going forward. Seems like it could be a valuable skill!
Re:Ask HN: My son might be blind – how to best support on Thursday September 19, 2024 @09:54AM (#41591863)
That's encouraging. We are in the 0-3 program and will do whatever we can.
Re:Ask HN: My son might be blind – how to best support on Thursday September 19, 2024 @09:53AM (#41591849)
Thanks for your comment. That is a helpful perspective.
Re:Ask HN: My son might be blind – how to best support on Thursday September 19, 2024 @09:52AM (#41591844)
Thanks for everyone's input. I probably can't reply to everyone, but I'm going to read everyone's comments and take notes.

I'm in the U.S. and am in a birth to three program. We are seeing a neurologist, optometrist, etc. medically we are trying to do everything that makes sense. I'm just trying to figure out how to navigate this as a parent for my son to ensure he gets what he needs medically and otherwise.

Thanks again for all the input!

Re:Escaping from Anaconda's Stranglehold on macOS on Sunday September 01, 2024 @05:50PM (#41420689)
This would be the sane advice.
Lazygit is fantastic. For a GUI I highly recommend sublime merge.

Zettel notes let's you use a git repo with markdown files for note taking. I use vscode on the desktop and zettel notes on Android to manage my personal knowledge base. Zettel notes is fantastic. No proprietary lock in.

As long as you have submitted the patent before publication you are good to go.
Re:Julia for Economists Bootcamp on Monday July 29, 2024 @07:35PM (#41104727)
I want to really like Julia. For me it felt like more work than python for simple stuff and not that much less work than c++ if you are trying to get the best performance. It is a cool language though.
Re:The Rich History of Ham Radio Culture on Sunday July 28, 2024 @08:25PM (#41097062)
That's true, but anyone can get a license.
Re:The Rich History of Ham Radio Culture on Sunday July 28, 2024 @02:45PM (#41095092)
Anyone can use ham radio. Encryption is illegal on those bands though.
