You just said all the things that you do while raising kids. What is it that you are doing differently that allows you to do all those things? Is it simply just a matter of hiring a cleaner?

Because otherwise, as the father of a 1 and 5 year old, I completely agree with OP and find your story unbelievable. Like OP I work/exercise/do chores from 6 am to 10 pm. I'm on HN right now only because it's Saturday and I'm relaxing.

There's a metarule to the rule that you're discussing.

"Don't struggle -- only within the ground rules that the people you're struggling against have laid down."

If fighting back helps your enemy, don't just pause and not fight back. Change the state of the system so that the most effective thing -- fighting back -- is viable.

Get inside their OODA loop. Change the rhythm of things so that it suits your needs and not theirs.

I don't think it was meant to devalue their citizenship, but citizenship doesn't trump their safety or need to be with their parents. The parents are going to be deported for being here illegally, would you have the child be separated and put in a foster/community home? Emotions are important but the only pragmatic solution here is to deport all 3, if your nation's policy is deportation for being here illegally. I agree with that policy in general but not with the US policy of Trump of manhandling illegal aliens or their children. Nor do I agree the lawlessness of what they're doing currently by sending off "suspected gang members" without due process to what amount to torture camps in El Salvador.

Yeah mods of an instance have the power to do so for the sake of their users (in their view at least).

Your comment also implies their actions affect all other instances just by seldomly doing this action. Which isn't the case.

We can cherry pick all day, but one cannot take the whole Fediverse down like it happened with Bluesky. Which is the topic at hand.

You have misunderstood what it means to follow the law. The law guarantees liberties, but doesn't guarantee prosecution. Obama has DACA, which gives young illegal immigrants a deferral on their prosecution. More generally there's the concept of prosecutorial discretion. Have you ever for example driven a car badly, been pulled over, but the cop let you off with just a warning?

If I were someone's only stalker, I'd be absolutely hopeless at finding their location from images. I'm really bad at it if I don't know the location first hand

But now, suddenly with AI I'm close to an expert. The accessibility of just uploading an image to ChatGPT means everyone has an easy way of abusing it, not just a small percentage of the population

That's right. Often due process is skipped even if the blocks turn out to be errors or collateral damages later. It's not going to be 100% perfect at all because stylometries can be obfuscated (see https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7345380/) and there are tools like VNC and residential proxy applications to evade IP-based tracing and detection.

Nice, but uniting Newtonian physics with Navier-Stokes equations is „easy“.

It is much more difficult to do the same and unite relativistic mechanics with relativistic fluid mechanics. The fact that in relativity you have to deal with particle creation and annihilation makes the issue much much harder, because particle number is not conserved and it is difficult to define probability densities if the particle number is not constant. And in addition each particle has its own proper time, so a standard phase space does‘t exist. It might well be that the idea of point-particles and relativity are in some sense incompatible even at the classical level.

> Knowing a new language is a lot more than the ability to use google translate.

Machine translation has poor reputation for the mistakes it makes; but if it ever gets good, then I wonder why learning foreign languages will be a more popular activity than learning Latin or Classical Greek is today. Of course reading Homer or Virgil in the original must be much more satisfying than reading them in translation; but the number of people who truly care about that is vanishingly small.

Yet when I (or others) are trying to raise the issue on certain Reddit communities in addition to Lemmy people there still prefer to bury their heads in the sand. Often they'll simply resort to personal attacks and so on just to avoid facing the fact that Wikipedia is not as infalliable as they think at all.

> LE personnel would have to get insurance, like doctors, which would be crazy expensive and, considering their pay scale, unaffordable.

So pay would have to go up?

There'd probably also have to be something where if they were following department policy, then the officer (well, their insurance) can turn around and demand reimbursement from the department.

Having coffee almost 30 years in c++ I really good tired of the complexity of it. Some of the newer complexity being workarounds for (in retrospect) poor decisions made decades ago. Build system situation never helped, and I still despise cmake. When D came out I was interested but garbage collection immediately turned me off, in my opinion the boost shared pointers (later adopted into the standard) solved and shut the door on memory leaks as a serious issue.

And then the d2 fiasco sort of blew it all up. Doesn't help that the language always felt very heavy to me. Likewise Rust feels heavy and cumbersome itself.

So it ends up that I'm another one of those who feels the itch getting scratched by zig.

Who said people are indifferent?

They can still actively engage in civil life with a variety of actions that look more relevant and meaningful to them.

If people are not given opportunity to actively engage in meaningful way like contributing to the creation of the laws they will have to follow, then sure they sooner than later they won't bother signing the blank check of void promises.

I'm in the process of registering for the app stores (Google/Apple), and both now require a D-U-N-S number. I applied for one, and a few weeks later, I received a link from "Truepic Vision" asking me to download an app to verify my business address.

I have a registered business in Delaware but no physical office. In fact, I've been traveling for the past few months and don’t have a fixed address. I'm wondering if anyone else — especially digital nomads — has faced this situation, and how you managed to solve it.

Please note that the 14th Amendment does not “discuss” who is a citizen, a better word would be “establishes” or “determines” - the “discussion” happened during the drafting and ratification processes and all of those records are available for you to read. Post ratification, the court system uses those discussions as part of their decisions on issues related to clarification of questions that arose after ratification. Those court decisions are also available for you to read.

You're thinking of Bob's Burgers, but even then it's a cartoon where the characters eat meat.

If you take this to its logical conclusion it can't be used with any media that displays the consumption of food that's not 100% vegan.

Right wing cause is also a bucket of worms. Someone like Joe Rogan is now considered Right Wing though he supported Bernie Sanders in the past.

If a liberal podcast host uses this as their theme music, then has a right wing guest on violate this?

If I mention I start my day with some yogurt, did I violate it ?

Feels like a "I'll sue you if I want" clause.

That’s not what the judge argued. He accused me of falsifying the document by doctoring it before printing.

Which shows:

- How much bad faith you have, assuming I argumented to a judge on a false hypothesis,

- Condescension to assume that I’m not a scientist who masters p-values,

- And ultimately, you confirm the hypothesis that you lead your research in bad faith, knowing full well the true level of violence from women and hiding it, which leads to more child deaths. You are accessory to criminality.

Your attitude confirm as well that it’s good this entire field of researched be defunded, it is a net win for science.

The backup plan has no API access (you need to use B2 which is usage-billed), it’s for a single machine, and external drive data is lost after 30 days from last scan which makes it very inconvenient for anything other than.. backing up a computer’s hard drive. Nothing indicates misuse of this plan is causing elevated operating costs for them.

It's completely different. A conditional work visa is just that, conditional. If you commit a crime you can lose status and be deported. In fact, DAPA eligibility was dependent on not having a felony record. That is not the same thing as citizenship. There's no reason to believe that because you give a temporary work authorization to someone that you have to then make that person a citizen.

Citizenship by blood creates its own problems. I am eligible for Polish citizenship if I choose to pursue it based on where my ancestors lived. I have never been to Poland, don't speak the language, and don't really know that much about the culture or feel any loyalty or even much affinity to Poland. On the other hand, let's say that someone is born in Poland to immigrant parents. Culturally they are entirely Polish - they lived their whole life there, speak the language, were educated by the Polish school system and consider themselves entirely Polish - they've never lived anywhere else. Yet they would not have the same ability to become a citizen that I have. If I got Polish citizenship, I'd just take whatever benefits I could from it and contribute nothing to Poland. How is it logical that I could be a Polish citizen and this person couldn't be?

Boredom is so essential to human mental health, that after we automated it away with the industrial revolution, we had to reinvent it (we call it "meditation" now) to stay sane.

Being alone with your thoughts for a few minutes is not in the same class as being unable to afford food or medicine. Get out, troll, this isn't Reddit.

Setting up environments for new projects always feels like unnecessary overhead. We got tired of it, so we built DevExp (dx).

Secrets stay local with optional sync across devices — a must-have for teams (and seriously, people still send .env files in chats?). Tunnels with unlimited third-level domains — pick your own names, WebSocket support included out of the box. Full request inspector for both HTTP and WebSocket traffic — no more guessing what’s going over the wire. Git profiles handled by a dedicated tool — switch identities per project in a few clicks. Manually editing .gitconfig in 2025? Nah. Deploy your code into lightweight Deno isolates in seconds — fast spin-up, low memory usage, without the overhead of containers.

Coming soon: an embedded SQLite-based database manager with REST API — simple to start, flexible to grow. Also in the pipeline: password manager, dotfile/config manager, boilerplate generator — all integrated inside the CLI.

We’re building this for ourselves — and for anyone else who’s tired of wasting time on setup instead of building.

First public release is almost ready. Join the waitlist: https://devexp.pro Follow updates: https://x.com/devexp_sh

Would love to hear what you think about the idea!

People seem to ignore the cost and accuracy aspects of a phone listening to you 24/7. At least with today’s constraints, it is highly unlikely to be happening.

First, the cost to transcribe audio is not free. It is computationally expensive. Any ad network or at scale service would not be able to afford it, especially in orgs where they are concerned about unit economics.

Secondly, the accuracy would be horrible. Most of the time, your phone is in your pocket and would pick up almost nothing. More over, it’s not like you are talking about anything of value to advertisers in most cases. Google is a money printing machine because people search with an intent to buy. The SNR of normal conversation is much much much lower. That makes the unit economics of doing this gets much worse.

Third, it would be pretty hard to not notice this was happening. Your phone would get hot, your battery would deplete very quickly, and you’d be using a lot of data. Moreover on iOS you could see the mic is being used and the OS would likely kill the app if it was using too many resources in the background.

So until we find an example of this actually happening, it’s not worth worrying about.
by IceHegel | 2025-04-26 16:22:41+00:00
Agreed, and this is a somewhat recent phenomenon (see wtf happened in 1971)

For example, we have 100+ drone startups in the United States. But our overall drone production capacity (hammers in Civ) hasn't actually increased. We just have 100 companies buying grey market from Vietnam and Indonesia, many of which came from China originally.

The way the system should work is if you want to do a drone startup, you need to build a drone factory. That's what the money is for.

If the startup fails, maybe the market leader buys the factory for cheap. This is how the automobile industry was in the United States - a bunch of those companies went bust, but the factories were often kept online by the winners.

To me it looks like technical scalability issues are a nasty growth-limiting factor for Matrix. When user base grows, the protocol and the implementations hit a some sort of limit above which they don't work properly anymore. Then they hack together a some sort of "solution" to make it to be able to grow a little more, then rinse and repeat.

They store all the messages in a some sort of distributed append-only graph database, which theoretically makes it a bit more fault-tolerant and censorship-resistant, but which does not work very well in real-world use cases. In addition to performance issues, it makes it very hard to filter out all sorts of abuse on public channels before it reaches the clients. In a rather bizarre turn of events, they implemented a kludge solution (1) in which all the messages are routed through a central server, and after then, passed on to the distributed database.

I don't disagree with you. I don't think that LLMs (or any other technology) filtering 'to meet my needs' ought to be my source of art, music or other worthy media. And part of the joy of picking up a printed newspaper or magazine is the sense it has been shaped for a wider audience, not just me, with a stronger shade of objective than subjective.

The point, though, is that if I'm following an ML arXiv feed and I'm interested in recommender systems, I really don't need to trawl through everything on interpretability, image generation etc. to get there, no matter how artful those papers are.

> However I believe that all of them have been prompted by some violent, horrific conflict in the years immediately beforehand.

And in the cases of most of the European signatories, either the blinding naivete that they would never need to fight a "real war" again, or the disingenuous belief that while _they_ could take the moral high ground by signing and abandoning those weapons, the US would show up and use them in their defense if the time came. It also allowed these countries to coach more of their defense cuts in moral terms, rather than simply as saving money.

Now, of course, those illusions have been rightfully shattered, and these countries have been reminded that cluster weapons and mines are used on the battlefield because they _work_. And modern cluster munitions with low dud rates and mines with automatic neutralization go a long way towards reducing the collateral damage.

Another idea: allow more "chunkified" approvals, and verbatim feedback:

"This part is correct, but this next paragraph? You're hallucinating / misinterpreting. What you really need to say is 'x'."

Also, I suggested that feedback also get scored in some way. For instance, what if someone is sending malicious feedback?

How do you discourage or de-weight someone downvoting good answers while upvoting wrong answers?

SCOTUS ruled on this over a hundred years ago, in the case of a child born in the US of Chinese immigrants who went to China in his 30s, and was denied re-entry. Denial theory: Chinese citizens are subject to the Chinese emperor annd therefore aren’t subject to the jurisdiction of the US.

SCOTUS response: “LOL”. 6-2 (1 abstention) in favor of him being a citizen. The majority assent lays out pretty clearly that the jurisdiction language was to except diplomats and Native American tribespeople who had different treaties and status.

The Wong Kim Ark ruling is super, super, super clear that it would only be in EXTRAORDINARY circumstances that the 14th wouldn’t apply. For instance, two people in an invasion force sent by King George to take back the colonies have a baby with each other on US soil: probably not a citizen. Even then, if those two were in prison and had the baby: probably a citizen. Baby of two diplomats: not a citizen (called out in the ruling).

The dissent says: The 14th was really about Dredd Scott, and giving former slaves born in US soil full citizenship rights, and therefore “jurisdiction” is obviously only for naturalized citizens: Mr. Ark didn’t seek citizenship and therefore didn’t have it, since he wasn’t a former slave or child of a former slave, the 14th doesn’t apply.

The current attempt to reframe the 14th while including the Ark ruling relies on the very novel idea that anyone in the country without permission is not “subject to the jurisdiction of the US”. ICE’s actions clearly bely that take. It’s not a tenable angle to try and get rid of birthright citizenship, full stop.

We absolutely need industrial scale farming, even if we take 40 million acres of suburban lawns and convert 10 million to active garden rows (there are many constraints on spacing, I'm dealing with this right now). Because 10 million acres feeds vegetable calories to something in the vicinity of 3-30 million people, at very high labor and logistics costs, for a small portion of the year.

It doesn't have to be 99% industrial scale farming in the current format, is the thing.

I'm of two minds about this. I get more done with LLMs. I find the work I do assisted by LLM less satisfying. I'm not sure if I actually enjoyed the work before, or if I just enjoyed accomplishing things. And now that I'm off loading a lot of the work, I'm also off loading a lot of the feeling of accomplishment.

They go where it's feasible to go. As long as regulation hamstrings industries, it'd be idiotic to build there. Ambitious people just want everyone else to get out of their way so they (I) can build stuff - and they'll go where there's less resistance.

Oh, there's a "tax credit" to make it easier? Sounds like more paperwork & friction. No thanks!

That's one reason Tech is such an attactor. Low barrier to entry.

The intro video makes it sound multiple times like he wants creatives to use the music with absolutely no strings or restrictions, but the most basic uses like a Youtube video or indie film would require manually applying for a license where half the revenue goes to Mobygratis let alone the restrictions based on Moby’s political and dietary preferences.

He’s certainly free to license his music however he wants but he’s really overselling how permissive it is.

Me too. Explaining something conceptual is a data serialisation problem, and explaining something out loud (regardless of whether anyone is listening) forces you to organise all the relevant information into a form where each additional piece of information makes sense only with the information that preceded it, and doesn't rely on anything succeeding. This reorganisation process is what forms the understanding of how to solve the problem.

Almost every cloud provider outside of Azure and GCP have an s3 compatible offering . S3 API is de-facto standard for object storage tooling

Cloudflare, scaleway, hetzner, OVH, Oracle, minio and dozens of others all have s3 compatible object stores

Most of them expect AWS have at least inter cloud transfer free (or discount Azure and GCP) being part of bandwidth alliance(BWA).

AWS S3 pricing is designed to keep you in the ecosystem , not be the cheapest, so tend to be costliest not cheapest unless your workload is archival.

For almost all non archival workloads egress costs will be on par or much higher than storage costs and AWS[1] charges a lot for any bandwidth.

AWS also makes migration really expensive so if you started with them, you are likely stuck as you would have to pay up to 10-12 months of cost to migrate out if you are on anything but the standard tier (cheaper the tiers higher the retrieval costs)

[1] All tier one providers have 10-20x b/w costs compared to tier two , however Azure and GCP discount for inter cloud transfers AWS does not

I don't see how you come to that conclusion.

I am arguing by pointing to the most clear and egregious violation of the law and human rights, that isn't meant to excuse any other violations.

I am not asserting that ICE followed any of the parents decisions, so I don't see that I could have possibly accidentally implied that ICEs actions were ok because they made the parents make an impossible choice and then followed it.

I took the trouble (and even spent the money) to get to grips with autotools in a structured and detailed way by buying a book [1] about it and reading as much as possible. Yes, it's not trivial, but autotools are not witchcraft either, but as written elsewhere, a masterpiece of engineering. I have dealt with it without prejudice and since then I have been more of a fan of autotools than a hater. Anyway, I highly recommend the book and yes, after reading it, I think autotools is better than its reputation.
