Probably the incidents of the iPhone 15 (or was it the pro version) overheating. It has since been patched but still it would be a problem if the phone heats up a lot while in package and can't cool down.
"The measure is believed to have eliminated as many as 15,000 — or about 70% — of Airbnb's listings in New York City, Wired reported using data from housing advocacy group Inside Airbnb."
I hope this means lower rent for New Yorkers, 15,000 apartments possibly going back to the rental market seems like something positive.
New York is never going to be affordable though. The whole concept of "low rent" in New York is an inherently stupid goal.
The reason rents are high in New York is primarily because it's tourist hotspot, but because people are serving a market. If you want rents to be cheaper in NYC then the fix here is really to make the city less desirable to tourists so people don't want to stay for the week. But then is it even New York?
In an ideal world New York could have low rents, be a tourist hot spot and be a place people can live and raise kids. In reality that's never going to happen, and politicians trying to "fix" the problems with New York is just a waste of resources and is going to come at the cost of people who invested in property in NYC to serve the actual demands of the city (yeah, I know f** landlords, etc).
The solution here, if anything, is transportation and remote working. Ideally people should be able to easily and affordably commute into cities like New York when needed, but they shouldn't feel they have to live there. But even this is probably too utopian. Not everyone is a software engineer with the luxury of remote working after all.
We have talked quite a bit about what it's like to be making hardware as a startup in our Oxide and Friends podcast[0] -- and one might be especially interested in the Q&A we did on Monday[1] after our launch got quite a bit of attention here on HN.[2]
I don't really understand what they're making and what differentiates their product. Is it a private cloud but designed so you can just drop it in place and turn it on instead of having to set up the cloud?
To be fair, simply being server a company that's easy to deal with is enough of a differentiator in this space. Would absolutely blindly buy from them just to avoid having to deal with HPE/Dell

I'm in the server business (within a very specific niche). I wish I could find more people like you.
Sometimes, they release them the day before but you're right here. They actually link the published paper in the article and I missed it: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.17564
